everything begins with changes, whether you re moving geographically or emotionally. aeraÕs album ãthe sound pathÓ tells the story of this sentiment.
born in the high north of germany and now a berlin resident, ralf schmidt aka aera first appeared on the electronic music map when he established his own aleph music label back in 2010. with only a handful of releases, aera was able to lay out his very own musically topography on the cutting edges between house, psychedelia and breakbeats. this colourful mix culminated on his debut album ãoffseason travellerÓ in 2013, resonating the past forty years of electronic music, which brought him the attention of a wider audience as well as fellow djs and producers. so it was a logical consequence that his talent also attracted other labels and lead to widely praised releases on innervisions, maeve or john talabotÕs hivern discs. with these, aeraÕs sound bloomed further into bubbly acid and trancey territorries and his fine reputation as a singular producer, travelling dj and remixer flourished. with ãthe sound pathÓ aera continues his musical travels and permanent vacation is gladly hitchhiking on that ride. his second album is the most coherent and definitely most personal work to date. here, he has perfected his sound even further - adding nuances from the meadows of new age, kraut cliffs and high-flying kites of ambient. complete with the cinematic and nature-esque qualities of ralfÕs music, it will draw you in deeply through a great variety of landscapes before your inner eye. however, youÕll never lose track, because this path is beautifully illuminated.

to find lawkyz, follow the beat. it is here, in this vital part, this lighthouse which guides the route of the other instruments, which it prints in depth the low notes of his four strings. riveted on the drums. linking with it a rhythmic pact, ensuring the propulsion of the groove on stage with erik truffaz or guts, on records with uht ¡, anna kova, or versus, his hip hop project with full live band. when he puts his fetish instrument, when he lets cool his amp, then wakes up his evil twin: the waxidermist. one year after his last ep, the waxidermist comes back to tell his story.

art-pop meets mongolian throat singing, blade runner meets walter carlos (clockwork orange). tom dissevelt and kid baltan (bowies lieblingsband) meets tame impala!

>what was old is new again<. the old adage is so tired that nobody takes its proper measure: all people hear is the word old, when the important one is new. making new things out of old things is an act of alchemy. the proof is in this fifth album no rest for the wicked of perpignan which is blown right open here and there by a few very contemporary guests.

late 80s south african dance floor winners only! selected by dj okapi and antal, the compilation holds tracks by jivaro, the hard workers, ayobayo band, s.y.b. & many more. this is the sharp electronic music that fuelled the local pantsula dances during the 80s and 90s . a must have for fans of bubblegum and kwaito music. top tip! the 12 tracks selected for pantsula! come from a very unique, very different time and place. they represent the birth of electronic dance music in south africa, through the songs of one particular independent label from the time: music team. the sound represents the culmination of the bubblegum era, when south africaÕs disco artists outgrew their american influences and forged an increasingly electronic and ÔlocalÕ pop sound

featuring a host of luminaries from the world of soul & r&b, chart-topping songwriter and award winning producer mike city presents new album Ôthe feel good agenda vol.1Õ. earning his big break back in the year 2000 as writer and producer of a #1 hit in the form of Ôi wishÕ performed by carl thomas, mike went on to work with brandy, rihanna, angie stone and jamie foxx as well as penning sunshine andersonÕs smash hit Ôheard it all beforeÕ. renowned for his deeply rooted, melodic production style and distinctive vocal arrangements, mike city consistently finds himself in-demand from a-list hip hop, r&b and pop artists, as well as finding favor in dance music circles during recent years. placing him inside their Ôtop 100 soulful house artists of 2016Õ, traxsource declared mike Òone of the soulful sceneÕs most in-demand producers, singers and songwritersÓ and Òa name synonymous with quality music, no matter the genreÓ. a highly accomplished vocalist in his own right, Ôthe feel good agenda vol.1Õ sees mike take centre stage, showcasing a selection of previously unreleased songs with a little help from his friends. best described as r&binfused dance music, the album boasts cameo vocal appearances from leading lights of the urban music scene including: faith evans, lalah hathaway, dwele, teedra moses and the man whose voice kick-started mikeÕs stellar career, carl thomas.

the avant garde movement largely influenced katsoulisÕ early compositions. after which, he turned to minimalism, applying elements of jazz and rock into that genre. since the 80s, the use of technology became gradually apparent in his compositions, whist not diminishing the importance of the human factor and the creative involvement of the performer. . today, he is striving for simplicity, trying to express the most, using the least, providing the context for this release. from the subtle ambience of title track Òif not now whenÓ, to the intense and confronting sound on Òall the blue skiesÓ, katsoulis and his accompanying musicians deliver a diverse and contemporary work with a level of sophistication that will challenge the current electronic musical landscape. the purity of sound in stand out track ÔtoreÕ is juxtaposed by the dark and gritty Ògrand delusionsÓ, a remarkably modern composition which sounds like it has been composed for a berlin techno club, from a man we suspect has never been to one. Ôslipping beautiesÕ, the most revered of katsoulisÕ back catalogue (recently remixed by young marco) is given an organic and intelligent reinterpretation for 2016. the haunting and provocative vocal performance by anna linardou on ÔzarrinÕ leads the record down an even more emotive and provocative path.

being pioneers with a new album created in no more than 6 months, the orb are bound to be exposed to fan expectations running high, while quizzical questions about little fluffy clouds and the good old times take over. it s especially jarring as the duo of accomplished soundsmiths alex paterson and thomas fehlmann has become known for its genre-bending curiosity and surprising sonic detours, exploring experimental soundscapes as well as club-friendly beats. the funny thing is, though, that whatever the context, you know a track from the orb when you hear it. case in point: cow / chill out, world!, their latest full-length offering - a masterful ambient album that branches out in many directions, but unmistakably sounds like the orb in either ear (and probably to your third ear, too).

amazing sounds from this great accordeon player from cabo verde! lp gatefold with liner notes in 1997, a quiet, unassuming man of 59 years old named victor tavares better know as bitori walks into a studio for the very first time to record a masterpiece which many cabo verdean consider to be the best funan‡ album ever made. bitori s musical adventure had begun long before this point. it was 1954 when he embarked on a journey across the seas to the island of sao tomŽ & principe. the young mans hope was to return to cabo verde with an accordion.

much-celebrated kompakt staple the field returns to the spotlight with new album the follower, his fifth full-length offering after from here we go sublime (kompakt rsd 02 cd 57), yesterday and today (kompakt 193 cd 72), looping state of mind (kompakt 241 cd 94) and cupids head (kompakt 290 cd 110). swedish soundsmith axel willner is well-known for his mastery when it comes to the allusive layering of loops, but it was with his last album cupids head that a newly-found, somewhat pressing snappishness started to replace the soft-hued sonics of his ambient-infused techno, imbued with a darker mood and stronger footing than before. a carefully gauged balance of stoic motorik and gloomy drones was key here - just as it is for the follower which goes even further in blurring the lines between concrete experimentation, body music and precisely laid-out arrangement, leading to one of the most rhythmically and texturally engaging listening experiences in willners catalogue.

the first years, from his first album in 1976 to his 7th in the middle of the 80s, were fuelled with an exemplary sense of creativity and a free-spirit vision. against everyoneÕs advice, cerrone was never reluctant to compose long and pure trance disco tracks, not exactly radio-friendly at the time, but which did incredibly well because they encapsulated the hedonism of the day and were far more than a trend. for instance, love in c minor and supernature have become unbeatable classics, featured regularly in the best pop, disco or dance selections. such a success would have burnt most of the othersÕ wings, whose career would have been ruined. at the beginning of the 80s, when he decided to unleash his creativity on stage, cerrone managed to rebound with you are the one studio album.

sound of the 16th season people have their personal rituals. leaving the international space station russian space travelers left some bread and salt as a welcome gift for their american colleagues. tennis star serena williams bounces the ball exactly five times before her first serve. our beloved master of ceremony of techno music, sven vath, has a ritual as well: when the shadows on the island ibiza grow longer and the noise of the summer is about to fade away, he takes a couple of days off and reminisces the passing season, the parties, the crowds and the music: what were the craziest, the most outrageous, most beautiful moments? which situations, which encounters inspired me? what did we laugh about? and of course: what was the best music? which tracks accompanied me and my cocoon people during those intense weeks? vath assembles those magical tracks for the sixteenth time this year merging them into two and a half hour set.

in april of this year, donato dozzy took a set of mouth harps back to his parents house in the italian countryside and set about exploring the possibilities of that most basic of instruments. the mouth harp had been calling to dozzy ever since childhood, when he had discovered the marranzano on a holiday in sicily with this parents at the tail end of the 1970s. almost four decades later, dozzy had begun to see in this peculiar, ancient sound, the roots of the music hed been making and playing in clubs all these years.

when i joined mouse on the keys, i envisioned a concept that mixes diverse elements of contemporary music, such as dynamic hardcore drumming and modern french harmony with the feeling of a detroit techno follower. since we got an offer to release an album on mule musiq, a label with much diversity in dance and contemporary music - our new album has been pulled out of us by itself- reveals the japanese acoustic and electric piano player daisuke niitome. together with drummer and piano player akira kawasaki and synth and piano player atsushi kiyota he is mouse on the keys, an energetic, hard to pigeonhole tokyo based trio that combines the sound of divers pianos and synthesizers with out-there drumming.

so hat man northern lite noch nie gehšrt. organisch, greifbar, ohne elektronische zusŠtze. verspielt, manchmal ungeplant und mit dem fokus auf instrumente und stimme. die -wooden playground tour 2014- lŠdt zu x limitierten konzerten ein. saxophon und flšte, drums, keyboard und gitarre, dazu der kontrabass, das cello und die pure stimme von andreas kubat bringen den northern lite sound auf eine andere, ruhigere, aber nicht weniger mitreisende ebene. mit the white noize, einer band aus befreundeten musikern, geht es auf tour unterm sonnenhimmel. keine licht-effekte, keine gro§en bŸhnen, sondern gemŸtliche und passende plŠtze im garten hinterm club, auf der terrasse Ÿber dem szeneladen, inmitten einer freilicht-bar - das ist die -wooden playground- tour 2014

the glitz always seem to surprise effortlessly with their mixes for italoboyz, d. greed, the hacker, dapayak....

still living in slavery is mr raoul ks third album. it is, however, the first one that will be released on his own label baobab music. he thought for quite some time about to shift the african instruments and african rhythm structures that uses in his production processs into a more dominant, more exposed position. giving them a role of there own and freeing them from being bound to a groove coined by a four-to-the-floor kickdrum. while using dominating drumsounds when producing records aimed for the dancefloor seemed reasonible, they werent needed for the storytelling concept throughout this album and are left to the accompanying remixes.

perfekt getimed, kehrt omar nun mit einem brandneuen album zurueck, von dem nicht wenige sagen, es sei ohne zweifel das stŠrkste seiner gesamten karriere. der wirbel, den bereits die veroeffentlichung des titeltracks the man als erste single ausloeste, bestaetigt, dass omar sich unbestreitbar auf der hoehe seine kunst befindet szene-groe§en wie gilles peterson (bbc 6), trevor nelson (radio 2) und jamie cullum haben sich zu recht fuer die nummer begeistert und sie als neuerlichen beweis seiner legendaeren faehigkeit gefeiert, umwerfend eingaengige melodien zu schreiben, der er auf diesem brandneuen, jetzt schon als klassiker zu bezeichnenden song, auch noch eine produktion verpasste, die funkier ist, als alles was man bisher von ihm kannte

one of the cliches about scandinavian countries is that they are neat and tidy, well ordered, clean. the same could not be said of copenhagen four-piece when saints go machines second full-length album, infinity pool. the opposite, in fact. its a record born out of an atmosphere of chaos.

when two kindred spirits meet, their combination often results in more than just its sum. neve naive is such a coincidence. producer/multi instrumentalist stefan merse ulrich and singer/songwriter neve aka alexa voss have joined forces to come up with one of the most astonishing debuts of this year.

welcome o the new compilation from >firence angel<.its been a eventful year, this is the fierce disco compilation incl. tracks by black magic disco, louis la roche, kris menace, inaya day allstars

excellent tejada album!

in stylistic regards their compositions are never predictable. a touch of organic jazz here, a subtle hip-hop allusion there, accompanied by a moving club rhythm structure and delhias captivating voice, which sings, then talks, and whispers in the next moment. this is being reflected in their life shows, acknowledged with much applause on festivals like ?sonne, mond und sterne?, the ?fusion festival? or ?ars electronica?. when they sample themselves during their concerts, modify their sound in real time and vividly interpret their songs, delhia dances audaciously in extravagant, selfdesigned costumes in haughty reserve and effuses eccentric pop magic. twisted-pop which gets straight under your skin, without ever grooving streamlined. you can dance to it, lose yourself in it or step into new worlds. there is only one thing difficult to deal with after you enjoyed ?the devil?s hand? and that?s to release yourself from its overwhelming emotional impact.

hardcore is not a trend but a lifestyle. the genre that once has grown in the netherlands, has also proven to survive in the underground when the hype in the late 90s seemed to be over. the ultimate hardcore collection proves that in this music genre there is still enough development and that the majority of dutch artists are still leading. the ultimate hardcore collection volume 2 compiles the freshest and most important records at the moment on two cd mixes. to make a long story short: for those who find hard not hard enough, this is the cd that you really must have!
