here to hell is an australian label project conceived by the presets’ kim moyes, and revolver resident dj mike callander. inspired by a johnny cash song, by the record industry in general, and by the spirit of commercial suicide, here to hell celebrates the pointlessness of everything: it’s the perfect reason to do only what feels good. together kim and mike also record and remix as zero percent, and along for the ride they’ve invited aussie musicians and remixers from all over to celebrate techno, electro, aussie rock, ambient and whatever they think sounds good on repeat in your headphones.

try love was originally recorded by norma jenkins and pitched to motown who passed on the track (this version only survives on acetate). master of the girl group herb bernstein picked up the track and recorded the version you hear on this 45 which for whatever reason failed to make a dent until it was picked up first by the belgian popcorn scene and later the northern scene, demand far outstripped supply and this rare 45 became very expensive. a haunting, odd and beautiful record to this day the members of the sparkles remain a mystery.

here come the james hunter six! serving yet another delicious dish of what you wish with the premier single off their upcoming lp, whatever it takes (dap-051). and i’ll be a monkey’s uncle if james hasn’t delivered two of his most compelling sides to date on this one. “i don’t wanna be without you” is a graduate level course in the three r’s of r&b: rhythm, rhyme, and romance. a sultry rumba sets the mood, as hunter swaggers in – donning his finest voice like a crisp tuxedo, complete with ruffled vibrato and rhyming cuff-links – and proceeds to lay on an absolute heart-stealin‘, deal-sealin’, panty-peelin‘ gem. on the flip, “i got eyes” loosens the collar and brings the metro- nome mark up a few clicks for a punchy tightened-up workout, edged-up with vibes and street corner backgrounds.

sparrow s visit of jamaica, “the isle of springs”, during the month of june 1963, has left him with very pleasant and joyful reminiscences of the love, warmth and hospitality of its people. well! and it s from there it all started, for like oliver twist, sparrow continued, where ever he went to ask for more, and, obviously when the drinks are in, the wits are out. you are therefore left to deduce whatever you may during his presentation of this contribution. “i ll be around” (bossa-nova) is a warning to one of his lovers of her promiscuous traits towards him and the retribution she would eventually suffer for so doing. theses two calypso songs were recorded with the famous bert inniss national recording orchestra. this single 7” is absolutely impossible to find and will warm any dances in the world.

once upon a time, there were two very difficult people who loved music very much. they loved music so much that they stayed together despite having clear signs that it was not necessarily the right thing to do. they made music together, or next to each other, and everything that happened, happened in the music. it was all whatever, but they still like it.

more brazilian inspired, feel good vibes from the barefoot beats crew. first up is berlin based dance machine eddie c who digs deep and drops a swinging bahian tinged groove, which is guaranteed to get you dancing on the tables! while over on the flip, rio based producers balako capture the vibe of those hedonistic carnival nights in their city when the night air is bursting and burning with excitement and anticipation. log off whatever you were doing and go barefoot instead!

lost, found & great: obscure pop gems of the past- is the title of a series under which tapete sporadically re-releases brilliant, but hard-to-get or even out-of-print pop albums.

following on from hashman deejay debuting his studio mody moniker as the first release on the newly formed sideline label headed up by salik, comes the second release by going good favourites e. corre and s. letelier (nummer) under a new alias detroit syndrome ... the label is keeping to the 3 track, low key presentation of the first release, with the focus being directed towards the music and continuing with a series that attempts to bring out a style that the artists may not necessarily be associated with. the direction given to the artists from the label is simple - do whatever you like, with the dance floor and longevity of music in mind.

tinnie house records present gratitude, the album by rafa kao and cam harris. question? what do you need to know when two deck magicians from brazil and aotearoa meld and mix up aroha and gratidao? answer: aurally that you ll experience an eight track kaleidoscope of unmissable, deep, dope, eclectic, techy, musical bliss, with a wee acidic twist and then some.. because just when you thought you were fully immersed in one tune on that dance floor, dink, blink and you ll totally be transmuted somewhere else with the next chink. whatever you do, as winter flicks autumn out the door? dont be the one who forgets to add this album to your non-chilled and lead me to the club warmers.

a year after his last 12 inch release here we are. thats desire ep and few months after a cd release hamburg süd/nee iyaow eow eow featuring experimental field recordings and vocal improvisations, wolfgang tillmans returns with a new extended play on his own label fragile.

already supported by kai alce, the revenge, sascha dive, jacques renault, thony (frank & thony), baaz, life recorder, anaxander, eric cloutier, fred berthet, lootbeg, schubert, relatif yann, did virgo, dub striker.. --- modelisme is back with a 3 pure deep raw house tracks ep, singularly cooked by gari romalis, brilliant producer from detroit. gari loves house music, whatever if that sounds deep, raw, vocals, no vocals, drummy, techy, hypno, disco, dub, friendly or unfriendly.. the only point is that must get groove, and gari romalis drives groove. he makes always his tracks as one shot based on, seeking always for right balance, sensible deepness and holding tension. we use to see him on great and famous labels like warm tapes adjustment, isgud, housewax, rawax, bosconi or dockside, developing each time slight different moods and directions. for that occasion, he delivers « mechanic ep » on modelisme, sounding trippy, housy , dubby and solid!

nice price deal !!! following our quest for inventive approaches within the sometimes tired and highly commodified house / tech house / techno / minimal or whatever you call it scene, we ve gone this time for landesvatter. regardless of having already signed a few full lenght lps on the highly esteemed normoton as well as on under_line and others, joachim landesvatter prefers to keep a low-key atittude. he offers us two great tracks, each one followed by a very special remix. the original of nome is a highly bouncy digitech house track for the dancefloor, with an infectious sinewave to keep you hooked from beggining to end. the remix of nome, in charge of arp aubert (marco niemerski aka tensnake & stephan lorenz) who run the great mirau musik, comes on the form of a hysterical dub house track that literally puts >the roof in the air<. we recommended for full effect to keep the volume on the red. as usual, the second half of the release follows at a quieter pace. hausse is a track on a out to lunch tradition, greatly influenced by detroit but at the same time distancing itself from the current plethora of nostalgics. in-house duo taron-trekka closes the package with a deep remix, rich on freaky jazz touches. we lack words to describe it.

recently, superpitcher was invited to go on a safari in south africa. he bought a custom made safari hat at his favorite milliner in cologne (ju&#776,,,rgen eifler) and set off with big eyes and a pair of binoculars. it was wild and wonderful and he saw many exotic (and big!) animals, even a leopard in a tree that told him the secret of the universe. he forgot what the leopard said because his mind was still playing and replaying the sound of what he heard on the first night of his arrival – the hypnotic and moving sound of the voices of africa, the voices of the wonderful tanda tula staff choir. there, the choir members work during the day at the camp and at night entertain the guests with their captivating voices and energetic dancing. so impressed was he with their songs and beautiful shangaan language that he decided to record a cd for them to sell in the shop at their camp and now this precious recording is also available through hippie dance / bush recordings on vinyl and cd for you in whatever wherever camp you are. the lp of the tanda tula choir comes with a very pretty poster.

after a career spanning more than 25 years john beltran lands on the belgian de:tuned label with the long-awaited follow-up album to his widely acclaimed classic 90s masterpiece “ten days of blue”. on “moth” beltran opens his heart by combining melody, emotion and soul with infectious grooves. as such he lays down the definitive and timeless detroit sound with a clear nod to the early innovators. from 4/4 dance floor burners to tribal shufflers and ambient interludes, “moth” is a well-balanced journey full of blissful atmosphere for both the mind and feet.
the matching artwork was designed by the talented plastica from spain. matt colton took care of the mastering duties to ensure the highest playback quality. the album will be released as a 180 gr vinyl double pack.
de:tuned would like to thank john and everyone that has been involved in the making of this wonderful album. stay tuned!

when wph boss red d heard toriton being played by ken ishii during a wph radio takeover on belgiums studio brussel radio station he ran to the booth and knew this track had wph written all over it. not abiding to any trends, just devastatingly beautiful house music. some licence negotiations and months later satoshi fumi agreed and made lalalalaland, a brand new track to go along with toriton and make up this ep the title track has that unmistakable detroit feel that takes you from melancholy to euphoria and back, while lalalalaland has been described by people hearing it in red ds sets this summer as japanese sunset trance or end of the night eyes closed hands in the air stuff. whatever the words, its the music that counts and satoshi fumi takes his place among the wph family in style!

five years after the illustrious paranormal soul lp, techno derelict danny wolfers aka legowelt returns on clone with -legendary freaks in the trash of time-. a vivid collection of twelve genre-defying tracks: from late-night hermit house to memphis rap influenced slowjam electro, from amiga 1200 technorave to cosmic spaceweed trance, including the whole universe in between. all blended together in a mix of subdued sensuality and psychedelic splendour, this album is flavoured with legowelt s typical crunchy lo-fi sampler and synthesizer aesthetic. wolfers own hand-drawn sleeve artwork illustrates the album s mood without the need for much further promotional blurb... colourful stories embodying societal malaise and its dwellers - yet with a dash of aspiration. music for misfits, witches, dreamers, cyberpunks, outsiders, geeks, and freaks. legowelt s people.

rhode & brown are back on their motherlabel toy tonics! after last years breakbeat - tune st hippolyte and getting remixed by their buddies hodini and glenn astro, their new ep takes their sound further again. from diy-disco to dreamy house, whatever you like to call it.. the tracks have this joyful touch, that makes their sound so special. this time their production way was a little bit different: while spending holidays on the marvellous island of zanzibar they produced the raw versions of this ep. they set up their studio at a beach cabanne. with a monkey becoming their muse. they monkey came over every day to listen to their sounds. they became friends and called the monkey rosie and fed her with mangos. when back in europe the munich boys still were in a balearic mood. so they went to a house deep in the south of france to finish the music. the result were 4 tracks. three for this ep. and one track that they gave to the other munich based label public possession for their recent serie a compilation. which makes totally sense: public possession and toy tonics both have links to gomma records. its all a family thing. where great munich vibes incoming!

arapus eccentric visions on the music some of us shallowly label as techno seem like a match made in an utopic electronic heaven as they crossed paths with the eclectic minds behind understand.
2 straight to the point tracks, bearing the same hypnotic groove entrenched deep into the bassline, twined with electro stems and looped around some schizoid voices.
whatever your perspective is on electronic music, wasted ego won’t fall under any category. a perfect addition to the understand’s series.

the new album from p!nk as double vinyl in gatefold sleeve.

leuk en ko is the dutch bastard child by unit moebius members jan duivenvoorden and richard van den bogaert. creating a vault of hard to classify material from mid eighties until early nineties, it didn t get out there for whatever reason. after de snoei 1 appeared on world of rubber 3, the big follow-up is here.

after a break of six years matt returns to his off-key industries imprint with a varied blend of trippy warehouse belters, sun drenched spine tinglers and slow motion acid. already receiving support from the likes of marcel dettman, santiago salazar, perc, truss and others. its also been downloaded for richie hawtin & marco carola, whatever that means.

für das wiener künstlerkollektiv sofa surfers steht seit seiner gründung 1997 die musikalische weiterentwicklung im mittelpunkt seines schaffens. seit ihrem debut -transit- bis zu ihrem neuesten album 20 loten die sofa surfers permanent die möglichkeiten von technologie einerseits und kollektivem spiel andererseits aus. 20 jahre bandgeschichte - das ist schon ein grund zum feiern. aber die sofa surfers haben zu ihrem jubiläum auch noch anderes vor: statt einem simplen -best of- hat man sich nämlich etwas ganz besonderes ausgedacht. neben neuen versionen einiger klassiker sind es vor allem die ganz neuen songs, die eine bislang ungeahnte fahrtrichtung vorgeben. dass sich die sofa surfers dabei dennoch stilistisch treu bleiben, ist ehrensache.

spearhead records label boss steve bcee returns with his 4th studio album, and itÆs safe to say that itÆs his best one yet. not just a solo affair, bcee has also drafted in some of the finest vocal and production talent around. with features from two time best d&b vocalist winner riya and d&b legend logistics being just the start. northpoint is bcee at his most diverse. from the early 90s hardocre influenced keep moving on to the jungle roots of hollow eyes this is an album that really showcases how broad the d&b spectrum can be while still keeping to the spearhead ethos of being uplifting musical d&b packed full of heart & soul. bcee said i wanted to make an album packed full of d&b that would work in a club just as well as it would in the car. no fillers, no showcasing how i can produce house or hip-hop or whatever, just pure no nonsense drum & bass. with bceeÆs spearhead presents brand regularly selling out shows at clubs like the legendary egg in kings cross & shoreditchs village underground, plus his growing dj & production schedule and the vanguard project his alias as a duo with fellow d&b produced villem, itÆs safe to say that even though bcee has been in the game for 16 years, heÆs only just getting started. support from friction, mistajam, metrik, technimatic, s.p.y, nu:tone, logistics, london elektricity and a whole load more

making a debut appearance on our own invisible ep 6 compilation last year we re very happy to at last feature a full 4-track ep from the mysterious immaculate rivombo. again the music is filled with that signature sound of live african percussion and 303s but this time with additional thumb pianos, hypnotic vocals and spacey synth lines. purporting to be from burundi (for all we know this could be the product of an elaborate ruse emanating from berlin tbh) the enigmatic producer (he? she? they?) has once again excelled and produced an ep that manages somehow to sound uplifting and spiritual at the same time as it is deep, dark and dubby. whatever, the music s great and that s what matters. definitely one to watch out for. another great ep from invisible inc. trippy, far out sounds. my pick is b1.killer party tool!! (thomas von party / multi culti) this is so good!! (auntie flo / highlife / huntleys & palmers / sofrito / mule musiq) really, really like this (jd twitch / optimo) bomb! b2 (jose manuel / music for dreams / kinfolk / eskimo)

across the street from where trouw used to be, lies a nice little hotel. it was in the basement of this hotel, where a curious meeting happened. something so coincidental and so unassumingly trivial, that even the slightest event of randomness could have prevented this from ever happening, yet it did happen and here we are. this curious meeting was the result of an open studio door of nachtbraker, and the hint of disco coming out the door, where dr. san proper just happened to pass by in search of whatever it is he searches for at 10 am on a tuesday.

the soul, creativity, or love put into something, the essence of yourself that is put into your work.

let s face it, summer in new york city is sweltering. even with all the windows open and fans on high, it is hard to find refuge in alliance upholstery s chinatown offices. today s sweat though, is due to the -dancer on the shore- ep, the latest release by the brooklyn based band, lemonade (cascine/true panther sounds). -dancer- is a subdued summertime collage of steel drums, buoyant electronic pads and windswept vocals. joined by dee dee from dum dum girls, it is a celebration of the space where humans and nature exist in harmony. originally released digitally as a single on cascine in 2015, the band created a dj friendly extended mix for this release. if you have been to the -air a dancer- party over the last few seasons, you have likely already heard it (sometimes twice in one night!).

the limited, hand-stamped presentation of the canoe releases matches the music contained within, all grainy and unusual but utterly tooled up for the club. nyra s pet project is providing a fascinating insight into the make up of this ever emerging artist, and tracks like -opening rhyme- are sure to pique interest from all kinds of adventurous spinners. while the track may start in a kind of looped up deep house headspace, after the breakdown it takes an unexpected, thrilling swerve into twitchy acid. -tape trek- is more overt in its surreality with its layers of pitched speech getting run through the mill and splashed over a primal drum machine beat. -galaktik- meanwhile has a touch of old skool rave about it, but it s far from an obvious throwback track. suffice it to say, we ll have whatever nyra s having.

with his new release the polish transatlantyk sails into - as yet uncharted - waters of the lol- fi breakbeat house scene to bring you the debut of dj stoner dad. not much is known about the man behind the nickname, except that he is a dj, a dad and that he likes getting his hits from the bong on during the infamously long warsaw afterparties. the -raw romantics ep- showcases his own take on the deeply saturated, smokey and breakbeat-infused house genre. fake strings is a certified banger alluring the dancefloor with a great combo of rolling bass, squashed kicks and hats, grimy, atmospheric pads and a bits of spoken word thrown in. magic phunk brings that break again and for a good measure. drums are floating over an ocean worth of blazing pads, liquid synths, acid riffs, pillowy, yet dirty chords and whatever else dj stoner dad could lay his hands on at the time. iv is a full frontal ambient jam, with little bits of wandering drums coming into the picture at the very end. finally v brings cinematic influences over slightly uneasy slow groove.

with comparisons being made to psykick warriors of gaia, cyclobe and insanlars kime ne this ones definitely making waves amongst fans of.....well....whatever sort of music this is. komodo kolektif is a loose collective of veteran multi-instrumentalists based not in indonesia as one might expect with such a name, but glasgow, scotland, their name being a reference to the indonesian gamelan instruments featured in their compositions. the instruments used (saron, gender, kempul) belong to local gamelan ensemble gamelan naga mas of which two of the musicians have been full-time members for around a decade while the other members are also loosely affiliated and have appeared as guest musicians on various one-off performances and who are themselves well-known musicians in their own rights.

while she may be based in berlin now, shanti celeste has deep roots within idle hands. from working behind the counter when the shop first opened to playing the label parties and co-running the neighbouring brstl label, shanti s contributions to the bristol house music scene have been ever-increasing as she has grown as an artist. having put out our her second ever 12inch,days like this, back in 2014, it gives us great pleasure to welcome her back as an internationally respected producer with a relentless gig schedule and a rich back catalogue of warm, heartfelt dance music that kicks where it counts. shanti s stylistic palette may have broadened over the past four years, but she s also retained a natural, unpretentious quality in her tracks that can span all manner of grooves and tempos. make time certainly chimes with her earliest house productions, but it s also offset by a wistful, meditative maturity. swooping pads, distant vocal threads and delicate fragments of breakbeat flirting in an aqueous soundscape whatever city shes based in now, this is surely deep house infused with a quintessential bristol ruffness. -thoughts- meanwhile speaks more to the artistic development shanti has undergone over the past few years, bearing the influence of melodic techno, electro and broken beat while striking a unique chord in the process. it s a hypnotic, alluring track that eschews basic dancefloor demands in favour of a more intimate headspace shaped out by snaking, polyrhythmic synth lines. both make time and thoughts stretch out over extended running times all the better for losing yourself in the heady atmosphere shanti has created on her very welcome return to idle hands.
