mark and stefan have been making noises for a long, long time. born in an storm way, way back, they have forgotten more than most people know about the art of making people move their bodies in strange ways - graduating from the psychonautic academy of vibrational arts with 2 lfos, a couple of vcfs and 3 vcos… when theyre not working in the studio on their new psychedelic project pulp disco & the outcasts, theyre getting up to all sorts of bad behavior in ibiza, france and their home in london and manchester. warehouse parties, dirty dive bars and seedy strip joints have all been seduced by their magic over the years, and this is where the duo feel most at home. the wrong side of the horizon is where they were born…and dark dub-discos are now their only refuge. so when the moon is full, hitch a ride with them into deep space...

marbert rocel spend most of their time looking out of the window and smoking. then they make music, someone draws for a while, and they soon go back to looking out of the window and making music. marbert rocel are twinkle-toed, and yet hardly tangible when you try to grasp them. they combine dance music with songs, songs with cookies and, in turn, cookies with dance music.therefore, marbert rocel spent a lot of time touring – playing gigs in germany, holland, italy, poland, indoors, outdoors, on the roof, in the cellar, in small groups, in front of many people, and in front of very many people.<it greatly influenced our music. this is the reason as to why we now make ballads at 130 bpm.< at a concert on enceladus in 2010, marbert rocel met martin kohlstedt. he seemed to fit perfectly to the band and behind the rhodes, thanks to his constant eight- armness and his tiger stripes.

part 3/3! close your eyes and let go. born in hannover daso enchanted us with this track. it is constantly building up until sunrise. this is how we got to know daso when he was playing his first gig at a treibgut getting our guests up and going. in hannover this night is known as the topless-party-animals-night. not many are as familiar with the treibgut sound as mario aureo proving with this tune. a year ago it was all hands up at treibgut but know we set it free to be passionately celebrated at other parties. leave the orchestra in rehearsals – until they have finished we keep on celebrating to the deep bassline for the plane has just landed. moritz approached this tune verytooly. we just remember him setting up stage for the party, ordering pizza and watching football. frieder, our youngest member, never looses the concept of time and spaces but this track has so much atmosphere in it that you can imagine which cloud he is on. the track comes in easy-going leaving you floating to the end

limonada 05 is an amazing ep by mindreaders, aka fred.h and william wild. they deliver their first ep on limonada, after their much noticed remix from francisco allendes & aldo cadizs >ya tu sabes<. with >marimba<, the two french producers take us on a long hypnotic, deep and percusive journey which intoxicating texture perfectly blends their musical influences. its the perfect track for after parties on the beach when the sun is rising. as for remixes, a very funky one by our freak n chics friend djebali, a nice deep house mix from aldo cadiz. supported by : loco dice, jimpster, karotte, silicon soul, shonky, matthias tanzmann, davide squilace, djulz, arnaud le texier, richie hawtin, luciano, nic fanciulli, tim green, psycatron, xpress2, mirko loko, natalie coleman, yaya, alejandro vivanco, oxia, toni rios, franck roger, claude monnet, plain pits, roy brizman, dj linus, mirco violi, jerome pacman, po missive, miguel lobo, andré butano, dj maiki , sergio parrado, miguel lobo, psykoloco, jesus gonsev, miguel garji, scan mode, sami wentz

ruben & ra with one night at the disco, a fresh 4 track disco vinyl ... the 2012 disco sound

this is a welcome return from sheffield-based producer grievous angel who has been known for his slew of edits and live remixes - whether it be grime, dancehall, house or uk funky. having done this for keysound label-mates dusk & blackdown as well as random re-works of productions from artists like wiley (check 2009s ice rick refix under the alias of bubblez), grievous angel has got an eye for recycling existing ideas but is no slouch when it comes to his original productions either.

techno and house build a strange symbiosis for darlyn vlys, without resulting in typical techhouse. when listening to the two tracks gus and heisenberg you just cant decide between groovy ass shaker and driving techno and you shouldnt! the often surprising development of the tracks combined with sophisticated transitions on the shaky but somehow secure foundation, make this special sound of the frenchman so interesting. the gus remix by affkt! comes as a crème double topping!

the ganas ep is dedicated to professor jaime escalante who passed away on march 30, 2010. the movie >stand and deliver< was based on his life. as a math teacher, he worked hard to inspire latino students in east l.a. to work hard at their math skills and at life with desire or in spanish ganas. when everyone else expected latinos not to do well at advanced math and calculus, he reminded students that the aztecs and mayans were masters of numbers. the tracks on the >ganas ep< are designed to inspire listeners to overcome expectations and remember that todays so-called minorities are the descendents of some of the worlds greatest civilizations.

word on the street is sleazy and we continue fine-tuning our ears, delivering the most current and upfront cuts for you, the discerning dj. here we present a special limited transparent blue vinyl release from max belobrov, a young russian sporting his moog and a serious passion for music. his sound swings between deep house and techno fusing nu school disco elements and beats… we knew we were onto something with max when radio 1s essential mix aired with maceo plex stepping up and playing maxs title track >magic walk<.

welcome return for this very sought-after rare electro 12 inch from tiny harlem label express records. big with the cosmic crowd as well as on the early hiphop scene, this is an extremely cool low-slung synth-heavy electro groover with a hypnotically smooth lead vocal, given a sharp percussive edge by the rattling congas and ticky-time chorus. written at a time in rap music history when the introduction of synthesizer technology created a wild flurry of creativity, this futuristic track by barry michael cooper (who went on to write the screenplays for movies new jack city and above the rim) was teletrons only ever release. film s gain was sadly musics loss as this was, and still is, a boundary-pushing, floor-filling monster. dont sleep!

dj w!ld and robsoul – the perfect match. phil weeks recently spoke in an interview about how there are certain producers he always trusts and gives complete freedom to when he asks them to record an ep for robsoul - dj w!ld was one of those he named. on w!ldsytle we get four cuts that again showcase the french producers trademark style of tracks which build and build, creating dancefloor intensity through their relentless hypnotic grooves, before breaking into expertly chosen sampled breakdowns. with recent outings on harry klein, jonk and luna records alongside his own catwash and his more recently launched the w label, dj w!ld is in serious demand right now. a stalwart of the tech and deep house scene, his career path began in the clubs of paris in 1996. working with chris carrier from 2005 under the name of catwash (which also spawned the label) he became well known in the french house and techno scene and by 2009 was touring the world, including being offered the residency he retains for circo loco at dc10. the w label launched in 2011 and was home to w!lds critically acclaimed >palace< album and the club destroying singles it contained. may will see the launch of a new dj w!ld album, d!rty, on the impeccable cabin fever imprint run by matt edwards (radio slave)

the pioneer producer of all things electro swing and balkan beats delivers his new song schlawiener: (dunkelbunt) takes the mic himself, rapping about vienna the way he sees it and his life as a traveller & jetlag junkie. this limited edition release (only 300 copies!) comes in white vinyl and includes a bonus cd. schlawiener is a cheeky play on words in german, translating roughly as a smooth operator / dodger living in vienna. someone you almost automatically turn into when moving from a hanseatic city (hamburg in this case) to the foothills of the balkans (and stay there for more than a decade).

fully koded chicagoians traxx and beau wanzer team up for another mutant beat dance release. together they have produced arguably the best 80s chicago house record not made in the 80s. the mutants call it jakbeat, inspired by the early days of house music. tip!!! let me go is as intense and rhythmically inclined as they come. naughty woods sparse vocals cry desperation, almost nearing insanity, which makes up for a pressure cooker like warehouse anthem. rottonfunk is another intense work out which has a killer groove and makes us wander off to the promised land (wherever that is). its delightful to hear that chicago house music this good still gets made. surely when it was released way back when, it would fetch top dollars on the interweb. authentic stuff!

js is the half of the rks project and one of the minds behind earth mothern. for the fifth work of the label he produced a thick ep transfiguration of the dark side of the earth (mothern) which points out all his talent. the first track, when i met mary, heavily influenced by the early sound of berlin and detroit, is a dancefloorkiller. ocp rework the track with their bare gross minimalistic blueprint, mixing and recording on physical electronics as it is mandatory at the restoration headquarters. king korgs hypnotic synths and strong beats, pushing on melancholic pads. roll a groove for a savage ride… the last track, thinkin of you is a sweet late night house tune, evocating the skyline of chicago and detroit

dj support by tim sweeney, solomun, dj t, till von sein, eats everything.
this is a debut ep of our new artist from copenhagen, uffe. vinyl contains 2 vinyl only tracks. theres also a music video for ill leave soon track.

limited to 214 units!
after a very strange viral campaign, consisting of 4 videos - simply called <evidences< - and the emulation of mystery-demo-commissions the truth is revealed now: the new release of renommated daniel half is ready for sale. 3 tracks with witchhouse- and technodub-flavour and timeless spooky atmospheres tickle the listeners senses. his musical preferences are not from this world - always looking for perfect understatement. this is the time when all ghosts reveal their faces behind curtains of materialized maelstrom. dont forget to open the flask and drink the elixir.

once a distant message written in the stars, the wisdom of soul clap has been beamed down to earth in the form of efunk - everybodys freaky under natures kingdom - their debut album on wolf + lamb.

introducing black orange juice for 2012 … a cosmic crew of dance floor saviours. nomads of the musical galaxy who are crazy in love and love craze. brought together by ossie of hyperdub records fame. his >tarantula< track was selected in the fact top 50 for 2011, not forgetting the awesome joe goddard >gabriel< remix for greco roman which took his sound to another level and which won him fans the world over… the all singing black orange juice, found it’s sweet spot when ossie recruited two of his closest compadres, paul black and orial, partners in crime with a history of gospel choirs, r&b quartets and lending their vocals to some of londons finest underground heros. they blend the best elements from the uk undergound with a nod to the talents of roska, jamie jones, scratcha dva and mosca, and a wave to those infectious vocal-house sounds reminiscent of hercules and love affair and azari & iii. the sound is both unique and dangerously infectious…

any fan of drum & bass will know the name cyantific. having built a reputation as a leader of the new school d&b generation, jon stanley is now approaching a decade of releasing incredible music thats equally at home on the dance floor as it is on your ipod or in your car. last year saw cyantific unleash an incredible single for ram records, as well as bounce it / obey on his own self-titled cyantific record label. here we have the follow up to that release and its undoubtedly another exciting 12 inch, packed with plenty of cyantifics trademark energy. effortlessly combining sharp production skills with graceful musicality, you can always be assured that a new cyantific record is one to watch out for and this new single is certainly no exception. mirador takes the lead, opening with huge sweeping sound fx and a bouncing synth line that harks back to a classic ram sound. its not long before you notice cyantifics signatures though, as he brings in vocal snippets and washing pads that gradually build and grow before a monster bassline drops into the mix. this one undeniably straddles the line between restrained musical class and outright dance floor mayhem. on the flip side defect comes in at an infinitely more paranoid level. strings are infused with urgency and rolling breaks thunder along, dragging you kicking and screaming towards the inevitable drop. you wont be disappointed when it hits either, grinding bassline sections are juxtaposed with obsessive synths, all pulling you deeper into cyantifics musical world.

nice price deal !!! no mortal lips are worthy of this kiss is perhaps not your typical song lyric, especially not when you think of the current crop of electronic pop stars. usually love, or anything remotely carnal, takes place in a club or on the floor or in the near vicinity of a dj booth.

its been a while since we have seen a release from dfrnt for on the edge, but im proud to announce, the wait is finally over! this ep provides us with an abundance of different flavours, but still retains the genius sound that is dfrnt at the very core of every tune. let me first draw to your attention to >the big freeze<. its a drum and bass track that has been moulded like a true pro. it sounds like dfrnt has been producing d+b for a long time with the finishes on this track, but believe its one of his earlier efforts. its a refreshing bpm for his take on electronic music and hope to hear more of the same from dfrnt soon. then dfrnt shows us what he is all about when he goes all out 4x4. a dirty, gritty techno roller (with a skip) that will blow your socks off! love the production on this one. then we have >monday morning<. this does exactly what it says on the tin, just the type of tune you need to bring you down after a heavy weekend. as though that wasnt enough, there is a 170 remix from man of the moment, indigo! support comes from: hatti vatti, synkro, versa, mary ann hobbs, kissy sell out, fused forces, loxy, dj rum, 501 and truth to name a few.

exium are one of the best when it comes to industrial chordy techno with his well known swooshy sounds. an excellent 4 tracker by the 2 techno kings who recently released fine material on nheoma and warm up among others.feedback:dj rolando: thanks for the new planet.sounding very good!2 deep & aces high are my favourites.kazu kimura: i like microbot, kr!z token: thx, will play apophis, sounds very phase

you know a producer has got something when the first note of the first track you hear makes you sit up and take notice. so it is with 19-year-old east londoner joss ryan: the instant the jabbing orchestral motif at the beginning of >melancholy dreams< – the title track of his debut ep – kicks in, it hits your emotional centres hard and lodges in your memory. as statements of intent go, its a pretty tasty one, and tells you that this is a talent who can stand out and make an impact way beyond the ins and outs of the micro-genres and endlessly reconfiguring trends of underground music.to put it simply: joss is a grime kid who expanded his horizons. his popular mix of his own material for mary anne hobbss radio show last december already shows that the three tracks on this ep are by no means a fluke, and there is a whole lot more to come besides…

so disco cakes is back with yet another chart topper. this time the dancefloor outlaws do battle with label bosses defkline & red polo. so what happens when the kings of booty breaks take on the might of the outlaws? well you get an ep of epic proportions. its packed with both there styles, the booty shacking bass and hooky vocals you have come to expect from defkline & red polo matched up against the crowd pleasing disco esq funk you have come to expect from the dancefloor outlaws. they are 4 cuts that will sit in your bag and be weapons in your artillery for a long time to come. available in both vinyl and digital these bombs will shake the dance and work the crowd in true cakes fashion.

we all love our furry friends dont we? when it comes to beretta grey, sometimes its the more the merrier. strength in numbers-taking in strays and raising up stallions.
this time we dug deep to find seth yender and his bring me joy ep. our newest slab of wax features only the finest detroit-inspired techno & house. his proximity to the beretta crew and the motor city lends the grit to the a side bring me joy - its a warehouse kinda vibe we almost just forgot about.

with two highly successful eps on gamm our stockholm turntable master will-rock is now back with his 3rd and in our opinion strongest ep.
this time he takes on beyonce, hooking up her vocals with a classy maceo funk classic. on the flip hubby jay-z gets his revenge when his 99 problems classic gets funked up with fatback bands >wicky wacky<. trust us … this one rocks the party big time! as a bonus we also left you with a nice edit of the original >wicky wacky< jam as well.

ly sander & michael j. collins join forces to bring you raoul06 via raoul, a deep, soothing ep. no response is a laid back and haunting piece, featuring warm bass and soaring pads. percussion is kept simple here, with the focus on the bass groove and introspective wording. home listening and chill out sessions arent complete without this air-y number. to bring it up a bit, the >deep space orchestra remix< lays a beat and a groove under the track and takes us to galactic depths. a cool energy is spread throughout and saucy percussion takes the levels higher. this is a late night dance track that gives goose bumps. it will certainly help to reconnect senses in the early morning. >russian roulette< displays nice use of delay and relaxed percussion. this hasnt got the boom of techno, but it does have the space-y synths and ambience to bring you up to your feet. when everything is in place, it feels right an afterparty delight.

edits may be dead, but just when your elitist attitude comes to a head and you think you re on top of your game, there will always be someone deeper, faster and still motivated enough to rekindle your digging desires. where blackdisco volume 10 saw the return of lovefingers and nitedog, volume xi pushes forward into new territory (and with a new aesthetic) by welcoming a group of three deep diggers who shun musical trends and their inherent fakers. dea, albion & spacelex combine their vinyl-mining efforts to unearth some real diamonds from the rough. deas cut malaka is a floater with a funky sailboat vibe, while his complimentary cut taubat takes the tired jungle disco vibe to new level with its triumphant synth-led chorus, an absolute stunner that could be extended for 20 minutes. on the flip, albion spoons water over the coals, steaming up the joint with an uptempo percussion bomb as if santana had a disco secret, and spacelex rides us out with a sexy rock groove complete with mysterious male voiceover, almost as if someone lowered the volume to whisper in your ear.

transmissions from the cyber dance imprint have been sporadic since its inception in 2005, but when they arrive they are always something very special indeed. ostensibly one of italo discos great lost producers, we suspect that bandidos gang may well be a nom de plume for one of the labels many associates. whatever their provenance, the tracks certainly sound like vintage italo, with >marinche< leading with a pulsating bass arpeggio and synth horn melody worthy of moroder, whilst the flemming dalum & steen gjerulff remix adds layers of vocoder and a variety of cosmic accents to its sturdy frame. >last train to tucamari< meanwhile takes a more languid approach, pulling in an opposite direction to the speeding train samples, whilst flemming dalum & mike saltas remix adds some guitar licks, hazy synth atmospherics and even a flute solo which just adds to the classic italo feel.

along with massive attack and tricky, portishead was part of the bristol triumvirate that popularized triphop in the early nineties, especially in america. but what made them stand out was their added elements of cool jazz, acid house and soundtrack samples to their slow, elastic beats, creating an atmospheric and seductive sound that appealed to a broad audience. in 1998, when they realized that fans were swapping bootlegs of their live shows like crazy, portishead decided to capture a unique performance.
>roseland nyc< was a one night stand of sorts at the new york city roseland ballroom, where geoff barrow, adrian utley and beth gibbons were joined by the 35-piece new york philharmonic orchestra. these new arrangements gave a new sense of dramatic tension, and in the process they created one of the most breathtaking albums of the genre.

a legend of techno music on tigersushi. we are really proud!
an electro hacktivist since the 90s, french techno pionneer, inventor of what became electro clash with miss kittin, true italo disco lover, legitimate son of dopplereffekt and kraftwerk and godfather of the new french sensation gesaffelstein with whom he runs the label zone. when michel amato (his real name) contacted us with a few tracks we felt so honored. he really got back to his roots here with deep italo and electro, warm analog synths against cold robotic drum machines, great melodies. it would have been a hit on the now defunct cbs radio.

shadow dancer is coming back with their 6th release for boysnoize records. paul and al farrier could be considered bnr veterans. with their consistently quality tracks and electryfying live and dj performances they have established themselves as one of top electronic artists around. the new ep is filled with futuristic deep, techno and classic electro (yess electro!!) sounds and the good stuff you need to get down to the floor. second city & jamma show their pure manchester warehouse style, where mashine code goes totally old-nu-school doppeleffektish and when we heared voice tracer we imediately thought of raster noton. thank you shadow dancer! the 4 track ep will be available on vinyl and as a digital download on the 16th of april. out on boysnoize records, april 16th 2012

next up on frustrated funks limited vinyl series is italian producer and visual artist federico leocata. this young producers sound aesthetics can easily be compared with dataphysix style of production with its snappy, minimal and dark characteristics (who knows what their real connection might be). but when looking a bit further federico manages to create a world of its own where unpleasant, obscure and sinister sounding tracks bring you in a dark imaginary world of ropes, burning leather and foggy torture chambers. this is the second ff release in this series of limited hand numbered and hand stamped colored vinyl 12s.first come first serve.

on this next vinyl edition from flapjack records, we take a minute to recognize a time in u.s. history when alcohol was made illegal. this time was called prohibition and was a very sad time for casual drinkers, but an amazingly profitable time for bootleggers and underground party goers. this theme fits right in with this straight out of the toilet distilled dance record from house music recluse francis jilla. >these boots are made for jackin ep< is the brand that underground house goers trust most to get fired up, while other moonshiners bring in the least.

along with massive attack and tricky, portishead was part of the bristol triumvirate that popularized triphop in the early nineties, especially in america. but what made them stand out was their added elements of cool jazz, acid house and soundtrack samples to their slow, elastic beats, creating an atmospheric and seductive sound that appealed to a broad audience. in 1998, when they realized that fans were swapping bootlegs of their live shows like crazy, portishead decided to capture a unique performance.

music on vinyl is proud to re-release this album on vinyl for the first time since its original release!

tom noble with a reprise 12inch of his great dancing hard track taken from the liger vision debut ep. mr. noble is recognized as one of the worlds top diggers when it comes to disco and rare funk. he got some help from his british equivalent mr al kent from million dollar disco fame, who got some help from his buddies ray harris on keys and kev mcshane on guitar to craft this awesome remix, or actual new recorded version of dancing hard! this is a limited edition remix twelve inch that comes in an edition of 500 copies! pre-orders are essential.

positioned as lesser-known little brother to adam beyers globally renowned drumcode brand, truesoul has to varying extent existed in the shadows since its conception in 2002. never designed to be a label that you could set your watch by, releases have come sporadically over the past nine years,albeit when they have come they have always made an impact.

huxley is fast becoming one of the brightest lights to emerge from an exciting nascent uk music scene, emerging from the underground clubs of london, bristol, leeds and glasgow. young producers are honing their talents to create new sounds influenced by the their exposure to house, techno, dubstep and garage music. when 2020vision approached huxley we specifically requested that he created a four track ep that truly reflected his skills. he responded superbly and produced the out the box ep.

2 tracks from the mc that brought you >lidl< and was guest vocalist on mias paper planes remix that went into the us top 5. he has been around the world, finished his degree, guested on dj shadows >i m excited< and is getting ready to break out properly on his own. this is a taster for his mini album that is coming very soon, two tracks that take him in two very different directions. kunta kinte is a classic slice of funky, south african inspired house/ garage. with a strong lyrical message ab takes it back to the time when mcs had something to say other than how fly they were (not that he isnt and he will do some of those). produced by dan anderson from nu sound therapy. the tune is hot! eba eater is a quality slice of african hip hop produced by las twofifteens. it bounces!

feadz and kito met in 2008 at a music festival in australia and bonded instantly over their passion for music and music production. the pair kept in contact over the years and met up a number of times when they found themselves in the same city. in 2011 feadz invited kito to visit him in paris to work on some music. after a week in the studio an exciting new project was born, a project that celebrates their mutual love for techno music

kindness throws his net in a wide arc when it comes to inspirations for his debut album: phoenix style soft-pop, 80s electro-boogie, arthur russell-tinted balearic, beatdown house, synth-pop.

after their first album made the crash test dummies huge in their home country canada, their second album meant their big break in the usa and europe, thanks to the self-consciously bizarre lyrics and the deep baritone voice of singer/songwriter brad roberts, demonstrated in their worldwide top ten hit mmm mmm mmm mmm.
other popular singles off the album were >afternoons & coffeespoons< and >swimming in your ocean<. >god shuffled his feet< was the bands most commercially successfull album reaching top album charts in usa (#9), uk (#2) and in different countries in europe (ironically, after a car accident where brad roberts almost lost his arm, crash test dummies made a few other albums but unfortunately limited distribution made these hard to find).
180 grams audiophile vinyl pressing.

the vinyl factory and island records present a deluxe gatefold vinyl edition of paul wellers new album, sonik kicks. pressed on heavyweight 180-gram vinyl, housed in a specially treated sleeve with exclusive insert written by michael horovitz.

special sunday in advent deal !! ectomorphs bmg join forces with another huge character in the scene, this time detroits derek plaslaiko. killer and highly danceable detroit style electronics...tip! limited hand painted sleeves!

straight japanese killer techno !!! tight, mechanical and brutal with an underlying funk, snow monkeys is the sort of multi-faceted beast that kobayashi is known for. the rough edges are allowerd full space to create tension but the track is tempered with some brilliant, shimmering and evocative melodies that slide into the mix for just the right amount of time before subsiding into the churning groove. one of the new school of japanese techno producer, a.mochi delivers a well pitched, moody version on the flip. pacey yet measured in its progression its a version that takes the originals tension to new levels and wont be a surprise for anyone who has heard his productions / remixes for the likes of figure, cocoon and a-wave. hideo kobayashi is one of the few producers who can skip from deep or vocal house though to searing techno with ease and snow monkeys is a perfect example of what he can do when it comes ot the tougher sounds

after years of absence on the music scene, international techno superstar cj bolland returns with a big track that takes him back to his nineties origins, reminiscent of the camargue glorydays. now ready to storm the dance music world once again, this is a taste of whats to come from the heart & soul of the techno mastermind.chicago obviously refers to the city of house, back when house was house, with funky organs, a variety of beats and the most beautiful strings. on the remix we get a deep workout from voltron, a melancholic future garage stepper from title, and a nasty dubstep delivery from syndaesia.

if you have been following graeme clark in his solo disguise as the revenge or the stream of 6th borough project 12-inches leading up to this one, you should know what to expect here—deep, blissfully hypnotic sampledelia with track flows governed by the laws of extreme repetition. its a shame that trance means a particular subgenre of electronic music, because that term applies just as much to the effects of these tracks as anything tiësto has ever played.
given the space, clark and craig smith are able to utilize this formula over a broad musical spectrum, creating music in the full-fledged sense, one that traces a landscape of tempos, styles and emotions and a menagerie of resurrected sounds conjures up images of dusty record shops and tattered vinyl, musical spirits captured on wax. awesome!

nice price deal !!! the bristol reggae explosion is back with a third volume. whilst still happily exploring what was happening in the city during the 1980s, they have bent the rules and included a lone track from 1979. if anything, this third volume is their strongest so far, an amazing achievement when you consider that most of the tracks are previously unreleased.
by popular demand, >bristol reggae explosion volume 3 – the 1980s part ii< has a strong leaning towards the roots side of reggae.

after releasing some cross-eyed dance floor burners on district of corruption, little helpers and bar25, pablo roman alcalá aka beaner brought some seriously sexy bent grooves over to brooklyn for those ever lasting late night benders. his first ep for thema was a dark and tangled ode to the drug-addled prose of author, denis johnson, which was well received by a slew of various deranged djs. this time he returns to stake his place on the dance floor with four deep, fractured after-hours jams. the name mixed doubles is apt, as youll find the pairings of unlikely elements on these tracks aligning nicely… before they are slowly pried apart. of course, thats when things truly get interesting
