enter the spiral - the title of the opening track by the first collaborative work between sebastian mullaert and eitan reiter is not just a random name. it is a title which anticipates what can happen if you let yourself go alongside their nine epic musical trips

good morning children, welcome to school ! what might be known from ipoly mate 003, got a very different context here in the title track. heavy club food, flavoured by alec troniqs love for the energy of the early 90s. the chain was originally induced by old man trouble and then impulsively got the blues by alec troniq. it has a special place in their hearts and continues alec s series of crossovercollaborations in 2014.

for more than ten years soul jazz records have been exploring and documenting the sound of new orleans funk. now we turn their attention to the flipside of this musical coin - new orleans soul. these two musical forms share a lineage that begins with the citys enormous rhythm and blues explosion in the post-war 1940s and 1950s. new orleans soul incorporated the soulful vocals of the gospel church, the driving beat of rhythm and blues, as well as traces of the second-line parade bands and the latinized rhythms of the city. this album tells the story of new orleans soul and comes complete with extensive sleevenotes, exclusive photography, supreme sound quality and comes as super-heavy, super-loud limited-edition double vinyl album + download code.

indeed, everything is permissible if god does not exist, and man is consequently abandoned, for he cannot find anything to rely on - neither within nor without. first, he finds there are no excuses. for if it is true that existence precedes essence, we can never explain our actions by reference to a given and immutable human nature. in other words, there is no determinism - man is free, man is freedom. if, however, god does not exist, we will encounter no values or orders that can legitimize our conduct. thus, we have neither behind us, nor before us, in the luminous realm of values, any means of justification or excuse. we are left alone and without excuse. that is what i mean when i say that man is condemned to be free: condemned, because he did not create himself, yet nonetheless free, because once cast in to the world, he is responsible for everything he does.

the original, with a well-constructed bassline incorporates a warm up melody that begins to set the tone for the night ahead. each layer is distinct as the track begins to build itself right to its crescendo when each of those individual layers collectively come together. you can distinctly hear the 80 s like synths that are cleverly inserted into the track which are highlighted by the female vocal samples. the grittier elements add a touch of darkness and instantly transport you to a warehouse club with an intimate atmosphere. the remix, done by the widely loved tech-house duo pleasurekraft jack up the tempo a notch, and add a bouncy groove to the track. where the original brought out a darker side, the remix is more upbeat and settles in well for a peak hour set. bringing that crisp bassline to the fore, and tuning out the melodies to make them a tad subtler it showcases a more tech-house version of the original. there s an added element a slightly more haunted vibe which is coupled together with those gritty and harder elements. all i can conclude is what a tech-house bomb this is from the highly talented pleasurekraft. they always manage to bring something new and unique to every single track they ve ever remixed which truly shows their remarkability as consistently good producers.

the third sampler from the ralph lawson content album features three of the uks hottest house artists doing what they do best.

anatomy of melancholy is the desire to bring what may be tetro s vision of modern jazz music. animal lover ep is a perfect introduction to it.

what happens if such restless souls like akiko kiyama and laurine frost start to melt their sounds together? the result is that one of the most interesting piece of art of the forward-thinking techno music becomes alive. ’through the mountains ep’ is a golden section of their utopistic musical imaginations, influenced by classical minimalism, live instruments and the ordered chaos of contemporary techno and found sound elements. all the four tracks contain their recognisable fingerprints. the gently and respectful collaboration is proven by the perfect balance of chemistry. in the collage of their musical layers every tiny sound and every tiny breaks have its own weight and meaning. waving and playful structures, exciting journeys on the edge of reality. 

der sechste teil der fantastic voyage-serie soul city, die sich mit der musik in verschiedenen schlüsselstädten beschäftigt, als r&b zu soul wurde, befasst sich mit new orleans. die sammlung von 60 songs auf 2 cds und 28 songs auf 2lps wurde von der soul-autorität clive richardson zusammengestellt und annotiert.

it is said that the gods of the dead demand you ritualistically commit to each intensely hot beat of the ceremonial drum. now, here, is the music for their celebration of death, music to dance together with, to oblivion, a music both spectacular and ecstatic where, like never before, the spirits of santería and vaudou mix with raw electricity into burning diabolical polyrhythms. we here present cut hands and festival of the dead.

tasteful nudes welcomes prolific french producer anaxander to the fold for our sixth release, an orderly life. past records for boe recordings, local talk, dame-music, quintessentials, and love what you feel have primed astute record buyers for these four cuts: at turns dark and thumping, melodic and melancholic, and hypnotically whirling, each track finds anaxander expanding on american dance music influences to create something wholly his own. the record artwork features an original photo by los angeles photographer armando christian armenta.

the red laser records ep series continues to explore the realms of italo, acid house, new romantic and disco flavours. nick smith brings the early 90s house heat with in motion. this is a four four dancer that is built solid. minimal chunky house grooves for disco journeys. hot sporran is a producer that has been around a long time and may be better known as phoreski and richard gateaux. as hot sporran he gets to express deeper and darker realms. xplorer journeys to detroit techno with strong flavours of new romanticism making a unique and wonderful disco sound. leonxleon does what it say on the tin. if there is another track out there called acid disco i bet you 100 quid this smashes it up and stuffs it in a bin. this is an all out hands in the air, euphoric disco bomb. theme from ferranti is a fantastically moody slice of sensual italo in true starion style. finishing off another epic red laser ep series perfectly.

walking through the sky, five years ago christian naujoks, peter m. kersten and richard von der schulenburg started a series of spontaneous recording sessions without any intention or idea. the only thing what held the group together were the immediate results hitting the three musicians straight inside their hearts. jazz as a metaphor of instrumental conversation, improvisation in the most dillettant way, science as a matter of exploring the opposite sound of what instruments were built to, these might be parts of a concept where there was none.

in what will certainly be ranked as one of his most intriguing releases so far, kompakt staple matias aguayo not only takes a quick breather from his commitment to cómeme, but also opens up fresh and exciting paths for him to explore with his music: legende is both the continuation and alteration of matias well-established aesthetic canon, drawing from all stages in his production career und ultimately synthesizing various sonic strains into a wholly new listening experience

a collapse of any truth, absence of light, and spectroscopic industrial manoeuvres in the dark: this is isolated process ep realized by kwartz. isolated process is a robotic monotonic thought deep down the furthest abyss. belling drums alongside drones and solid grey basslines appears on first function and second function: two different points of view, two moments about the same hypnotic march. milton bradleys remix is a slower exploration of what remains alive underneath the space. slow and cyclical beats hits back the mind once lost in the ocean. pure machine darkness.

gl are melbournes cosmic-funk revivalists and the soundtrack to eternal leisure. cruising on glowing synths, gritty drum-machines, and stratospheric vocals, gls music is a cosmic dream-sequence not unlike a lost reel from the mid-80s.

look who dug a hole through the earth… fresh in berlin from the subtropic suns of la, draveng is coming up in your schrebergarten with a cup of coffee and three exercises for allergy season.

side b: things get dramatic here. wilderness whimpers while wind whips water before moses staff parts 4 to the floor kicks from divine mathematics. j. tijn does what he does best and sears *for thin soles* into a blown out roller.

what does a rave sound like the next day? the strobe lights in a dark warehouse, the pounding kick, the blur of ecstatic faces lead to a morning-after emptiness, all fade into memories of the friends you once had. on ode, tin man (proper name johannes auvinen) explores this feeling, offering tracks which possess an exhausted joy, the aural equivalent of the stretch of time beginning when the last record is played and stretching on towards the doleful contemplation of last night’s unmade sheets. appropriately, tin man’s melancholic dance music is more club-ready than ever.

ichisan is slovenian igor skafar, and igors trademark sound is heavenly electronic blissed spaced out house with a sick amount of grooves layerd in. fab earlier releases on the grand airtight and unter the shade labels tell musical tales of this. and so it went that hoppsa fascinatd us yet againy with its mesmerizing 80s synth hook that you want to simply lock in and play away all day and night while kristina is an unmistakably philly affair with an edge, and edge, that means deep depth and a serious build between the woobly - and that is what we like! not being able to decide which one to favour, eventually, we released both. heres to you! kai & thomas, sept 2014
