after the hip hop after all tour, guts confirms in an idea more than this in the back of his head to make an album where the proportions 80% samples and programming / live 20% would be reversed. ok! an album to push further his musical exploration, go to the electro-funk, afro-disco, space jazz. add choir here, the talkbox there, play a monstrous bassline, a fiery sax solo instruments or let slip only several minutes: guts did nothing forbidden, opened the doors of the studio, broke the unlocked windows and vents so that no breath or vibration is left out.

sound and rhythm are effective means of individuals self-defence in face of chaotic steamroller of everyday life. hiding in a familiar yet simultaneously hardly recognisable parallel space does not have to result from the need of escaping the world or nurturing one’s ego. too many times to mention, music appearing under recognition imprint served as a peculiar type of a vehicle of survival and a tool for internal transformation. hideland, new record by polish electronic music producer jacek sienkiewicz is released precisely year after drifting, which largely explored tropes of classical club techno sound. eight (nine in extended cd version) tracks comprising this album go beyond easy-to-pigeonhole genres, creating a microcosm of utopian sound constructs. surprisingly unobvious and precisely composed release could be fascinating both for loyal fans and for new listeners looking for threads of experimentalism. its another intriguing proposal in jacek sienkiewiczs growing discography, but above all, a laboratory where dreams and artistic visions metamorphose into concrete reality.

die neue fabric-cd kommt vom briten alan fitzpatrick, einem der derzeitigen protagonisten des techno und aushŠngeschild des schwedischen kultlabels drumcode. sein von anfang bis ende durchdachtes mixset zeugt von zeitloser qualitŠt. mit verantwortlich dafŸr sind neben vielen namhaften vertretern des zeitgenšssischen techno auch exklusive edits (mark broom, boxia) sowie bislang noch ungehšrte tracks/remixes von fitzpatrick selbst (where haus?, drewxhill bullets remix).

over the course of the past ten years, stil vor talent has striven to support emerging young artists, to continuously broaden and redefine its sound, and, ultimately, to create lasting memories, both on and off the dance floor. the dance floor is the place where we gather to leave the worries of our everyday lives behind, and, for those few moments, form a bond, which transcends the final track of the night. a bond between each other between the artist and the dancer between ourselves and the music. on 10 years stil vor talent we celebrate this bond and say thank you.

ntogns second full length album was made for the art installation *where threads lead*, curated by frantic art gallery in tokyo.
the idea is to give a sonic interpretation of strings as both art and as an all encompassing structure of life. ntogn s approach to this has been to work with few evolving elements, flowing and curving like threads in a web. resulting in a varied lot of sonic braids.
early support by cio d or, svreca, takaaki itoh, valentin corujo (exium), mod21, attemporal, eomac, iori, jonas kopp, rasmus hedlund, retina.it, victor martinez, periskop, sam kdc, antonio vazquez, blndr, luigi tozzi

* this is the seventh surgeon album.
* -while exploring new production techniques using old and unlikely hardware, the results were so unusual that i really had the sense that these pieces of equipment didn t actually create these sounds, rather they were in fact some kind of elaborate reception device that allowed me to tune into transmissions from distant galaxies. the music i could hear was actually the received transmissions of pop hits from those distant galaxies that were being played on their radio stations. i quickly recorded all that i could before losing the transmission.
* i consulted with dr andrew read, the astrophysicist with whom i recorded guitar treatments in 1999. he has worked on the discovery of the most distant galaxies and astronomical objects in the universe. together we came up with a possible list of where these musical transmissions may have come from.

armada veršffentlicht das neue album des schwedischen dance-produzenten john dahlbŠck, der seit Ÿber einer dekade erfolgreich im business ist. saga enthŠlt 15 neue tracks, darunter die erste single raven sowie die dancefloor-burner count to ten und atlantis. †ber seinen bewŠhrten progressive house-style hinaus liefert der talentierte schwede vielfŠltige variationen elektronischer clubmusik.

jesse rose, globetrotter-dj aus london, betreiber der labels a-sided und play it down, kollaborator von acts wie switch, claude vonstroke oder hot chip und nicht zuletzt mentor solch talentierter newcomer wie christian nielsen und oliver $ however, liefert mit seinen formidablen dj-skills ein makelloses house-set in der fabric-reihe ab, das mit seiner feinen selektion aus besten good-times-grooves schon nahezu perfekt klingt.

the art of omission is a craft new jersey native joey anderson masters like few others. after releasing his acclaimed debut album after forever in 2014 and the 1974 ep earlier this year, anderson returns to the dekmantel label serving up the signature sound we love him for. invisible switch is the perfect example of what anderson can do with very little, catapulting him to one of the finest and most original techno and house producers to date.

auf seinem zweiten album playing with fire Ÿberzeugt das drum & bass-multitalent rene lavice, protege von labelhead andy c und livsupporter fŸr the prodigy, wieder mit seiner ihm eigenen stilvielfalt vom radiofreundlichen the calling aus der bbc radio 1 playlist bis zum dancefloor-hammer air force one

nils frahms late night tales sind eine hypnotische reise durch moderne und klassische komposition, experimentelle elektronik, jazz, dub-techno, filmmusik und soul, gleichsam verstörend wie betörend. viele der tracks, ausgesucht aus seiner reichhaltigen plattensammlung aus schellacks, 7 und lps, kassetten, minidiscs und wav/mp3s, wurden neu editiert und mit effekten versehen. dennoch wirkt die zusammenstellung niemals wie ein mixset, sondern entfaltet sich eher wie eine fluffige daunendecke Über das gemüt des zuhörers. wir begegnen solch unterschiedlichen künstlern wie miles davis, boards of canada und nina simone, während nils frahm selber eine neuinterpretation des john cale tracks 4:33 als exklusives cover beisteuert.

fŸr seine 500.000 einwohner hatte das nšrdlich von brasilien gelegene surinam schon immer eine lebhafte musikszene. obwohl international weitestgehend unbekannt, hat das kleine land einen starken einfluss auf die niederlande, wo viele surinamesen leben. das land ist fŸr den musikstil kaseko, der aus der traditionellen kawina musik entstanden ist, sowie seinen soul bekannt. aber auch pop, jazz und funk wurde gespielt. zwischen 1976 und 1983 wurde eine vielzahl an hochkarŠtigen soul, boogie, disco und funk-songs eingespielt, die auf der kindred spirits compilation surinam! boogie & disco funk from the surinamese dancefloor 76-83 versammelt waren. sumy war mit soul with milk vertreten

over 10.000 years ago, after the last ice age, humans began to explore and settle the place now known as scotland. evidence of our ancestors can be found in the various rock carvings, standing stones, tombs and dwellings still scattered throughout the lands today. modern archaeological techniques can offer ever more detailed suggestions as to what these monuments might have meant, but it is still largely left to our imaginations to discern just what these spaces were used for.

jacek sienkiewicz is back. drifting is the artistÕs 5th full-length release and the second one on his warsaw-based label recognition since 1999. his records were played and strongly supported by renowned artists such as sven vŠth and richie hawtin, legendary producers like ricardo villalobos, uwe schmidt and recently, max loderbauer collaborated with jacek. drifting takes its listener on a complex but still accessible journey to a state-of-the-art techno territory where carl craig melodies coexist with stark minimalism of robert hood, but they serve only as entry points for further exploration

spear060 sees the return of bcee as he brings us his 3rd full length studio album. bcee has drafted in the vocal talents of rocky nti, philippa hanna, frank h carter iii & saint louis to keep things fresh. also featuring special guests hybrid minds, s.p.y, villem & lsb. this will be released as a double pack gatefold coloured vinyl with cd included as well as a cd. support from friction, drumsound & bassline smith, bryan g, blu mar ten, doc scott, technimatic, s.p.y, the risky and a whole load more.

endlich, endlich, endlich ist es wieder so weit! bei vielen clubbern kann man in diesen frŸhlingstagen die steigende vorfreude bemerken: die angesagten clubs auf ibiza šffnen bald wieder ihre pforten und somit steht einer rauschenden partysaison mit viel glamour, sonne und neuen richtungsweisenden sounds nichts mehr im wege! gerade passend zum saisonauftakt auf der beliebtesten partyinsel europas legen wir mit ibiza sunrise vol.1 den grundstein zu einer neuen compilationserie. auf 2cds werden die besten und topaktuellsten clubhits gefeatured, zu denen auf den berŸhmten dancefloors der insel abgefeiert werden wird.

armada startet die neue mixserie -beyond borders- mit den vibrierendsten hotspots der clubmusik auf diesem planeten. den anfang machen london und king unique, bekannt fŸr seinen deepen, bassgetriebenen underground-house, den er als dj und remixer (fŸr u.a. underworld, junkie xl, unkle) zelebriert. hier hei§t es endlich wieder: deep, down & dirty - mit 25 toptracks von grum, kšlsch, dave seaman, u.v.a.

nach einem fulminanten debŸtalbum, das sowohl dancefloors der welt als auch kritiker au§er atem lie§, kehrt jeremy guindo aka bambounou nun mit centrum in albumlŠnge zurŸck. guindo benutzt verspielte electro-synths (echter electro, siehe detroit), die den hšrer in einen trance-zustand versetzen, der durch die peitschenden percussions von tracks wie each other gestšrt wird. im gegensatz zu orbiting bewegt sich centrum eher weg von bass und footwork und hin zu ambient und techno.

new york, early 90s, the haydays of the new york and jersey clubhouse! with labels such as nugroove, nervous, freeze, strictly rhythm, henry street music taking all the spot light, there is jovonn working on a small but sensational catalogue of music that somehow gets overshadowed by the popular releases on the mentioned labels. the honest productions, jazzy melodies and playful vocals (rooted in gospel) were taking things into a more musical, more spiritual way, lacking gimmicks or dispensable samples. for the real diggers, the true lovers of house music jovonn always was a name to watch, a producer of some of their favorite ny house tracks, tracks that have a raw edge combined with a sincere human touch and pure underground house vibes

industry sheds all personalized effort and tests how far you can get by using presets only. all sounds are factory presets of 3 obsolete 1990s japanese workstation synths, all effects are presets, all notes are quantized and most panning is purely accidental (laid out in the preset sounds). industry doesnt rely on successful presets, but on failed sounds of now obsolete synthesizers - industrial assumptions of where culture will go, but where it chose not to. the result is a surprisingly pleasant listening experience with effortless grooves and rich textures - and mildly demonic connotations. from smooth to kicking - a conveyor belt enjoying mood swings. as beautiful as the scheduled meeting of a pvc sheet and a thermoform mould on a workbench

walking through the skyÉfive 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.

paul white has long established himself as an acclaimed hip-hop producer, but on his debut lp for r&s records he expands his horizons with the most personal music of his career to date. with the the sampler laid aside, the south londoner emerges as a multi-instrumentalist, singer and producer as he charts the intoxication, heartbreak and ultimate triumph of a grand love affair.
the vinyl lp includes a download code.

cuthead got known to the wider public via his releases on uncanny valley but his roots reach way back before the labels start. there was a time when cuthead and his brothers from another mother threw wild parties at abandoned industrial locations or in the woods around dresden. the crew, which was known as kunst:stoff breakz, also established a label where cuthead released two albums and one ep

nice price deal !!! the latest installment from the labels mystery man takes us out of the jungle and into the mountains, where syncopated analog rhythms dance beside electric melodies surrounding a caravan of textures and reflection. not much else needs to be said about this one except its either for you or not, if so, enjoy and elevate.

system fork was designed around the principle of itamae, where ever detail was described and thought about before any work in the studio was done. this process took two years before a set of rules and principles were fully realised for the creative process in the studio.

in the ever-expanding universe of deep house, julius steinhoff is far from being a stranger. half of the dynamic duo smallpeople, founder and one of the steersmen behind hamburgs smallville empire (record store/ label/ party curator around the globe) as well as a producer and dj in his own right, steinhoff is closely associated with a group of like-minded people that unite fresh ideas and individualism with a certain consciousness of tradition.

another new signature on heavenly sweetness, the leftfield duet baron retif & concepcion perez. they already released 3 ep on musique large label and did remixes for laurent garnier or jacaranda muse, and produced some beats for french rapper roce or coeff.

schneeweiss iii: a collaboration of neighbours. over the years, oliver koletzki has continuously cited berlin as a point of reference and, more importantly, a source of inspiration. two of his albums - gro§stadtmaerchen and gro§stadtmaerchen 2 - have been a direct ode to the capital. friedrichshain, one of berlins vibrant districts, has always held a special place in olivers heat. this is where he started out when he first moved to the city, and this is where he lives now.

georgie fame ist eine britische r&b-legende. er hat in seiner 50-jaehrigen karriere mehr als 30 alben und 13 hitsingles veroeffentlicht, sein bekanntester hit ist >the ballad of bonnie and clyde< nr. 1 in uk im jahr 1968.

machinecode - velocity lp (subsistenz). velocity is the third album from machinecode, following hot on the heels of 2013s seminal under the sun and continuing where its predecessor left off, taking up a position outside currently definable sub- genres. 12 tracks deep this time (including remixes from mindscape and the sect), the duos classic d&b sensibilities are well-evidenced, with rugged breaks, deep basslines and elegant pads the order of the day

the second coming. finlands otherworldly electro lords blastromen return to the dominance electricity mothership to deliver their much anticipated second longplayer. the eight new compositions featured on *reality opens* continue where their debut album *human beyond* left off in the year 2010 and lead straight to the next level. sophisticated arangements with epic synth melodies and atmospheres, haunting electro breakbeats and elaborate vocoderized lyrics prove once again that blastromen are a class of their own.

the name sabota comes from the infamous area in nelson bc, where kids congregate late at night to smoke weed, hook up and watch the sun come up.

laidback sunshine house vol.2....
1st cd = mixes, 2nd cd = unmixed
