the latest emotional response release provides something very special indeed, in the form of a new track from under the radar psychedelic rock musician nick nicely. nicely has been making music from the 70s onwards, but his music has recently undergone something of a critical reappraisal, with the likes of robert wyatt and robyn hitchcock supposedly inspired by his work, wrottersley road provides the ideal entry into his music, a masterful piece of shoegaze pop filled with fuzzed out guitars and eastern psychedelic tones. remixes are provided by invisible hands, who provide a minimal 80s inspired electro-pop version, which comes saturated in radiophonic textures, and the oscillation, who take the track into even more abstract ambient territory than the original, deep into a place where time seems to stand still entirely, drawing its rich textures out into infinity.

alessandro parisi recorded this album just with a roland tr-707 and a roland jx-3p. the result is impressive. for lux rec it was worth the labels first lp. the heritage from his home in the northeast of italy is clearly present in the music of parisi. back in the late seventies and early eighties pordenone was an industrial city with a vivid underground post punk and wave scene. cold weather electronics. fog and darkness surrounds the place to this day and deeply pervades this record: the history of a city called draconia. who will do wrong shall not be forgiven. limited to 250 copies, it comes in a red vinyl double 12-inch outfit. free download included!

having established the w&o street tracks imprint in 2012 to further push the revivalist house sounds of themselves and their contemporaries, waze & odyssey kick present the labels first release of 2013 with a double header of hot house talent. on the a-side, ejeca, who helmed the last w&o street tracks release teams up with us based rhythm operator on raid, an initially tense house number which explodes into a catchy sequence of lysergic 90s stabs, complete with whooping vocal sample. on the flip, rising london producer citizen builds on the momentum from a year of strong releases on love fever, five easy pieces and kerri chandlers madtech with in my mind, a heady combination of hypnotic vocal loops, thick bass, and narcotic organ chords which display a darker side to the producer.

after the killer release by marco shuttle vidd is back after a long silence with their 2nd release. a special release from somebody who has done a lot in a very short time: gw from stockholm. surrounded by mystery and simplicity, hurry up demonstrates both power and heft with few elements. the driving force builds a tension which really doesnt reach a peak, something that the locked groove vocal manages to balance perfectly. the energy is constant and keeps things interesting. the b-side starts off with runaway, a chicago-resembling funk track that reflects the 90s tradition and the new digital age. tonight closes the doors of this release and the closing lights come on, it is time to go home.

house is at home with bobby browser, who may be “still browsing” after 2012’s “just browsing” ep, but these four tracks feel like he’s finally splurged on the pleasure-purchase. never afraid to fuse sad soul ii soulisms with flute-floozy milan model-walk wonders, or blue lipstick, platform dance with classic groove-back ogle-voguing, bobby browser remains a san fran late-night-on-haight-night latin legend. browser’s known for djing gel-gems like “bad bad boys” and other, mostly forgotten, romantic thrift store singles and as producer he’s got the same no-boundaries deep-‘preciation for all that can be stirred in his stoopid stew. howard jones meets earth, wind, and fire meets n’dea davenport meets sade meets frankie knuckles but not at all straightforward, and nothing short of silky slip-peeling. always lovely and light, sleek and chic, bobby browser’s bought a spot on your yacht. it’s going to be a smooth cruise.

a yawning desert covers and oppresses a distant daemon-sphere pregnant with the stuff of a thousand earths. clouds of the same hue and attitude as the infinite sands gradually dominate the sky, possessed of a malign intelligence. a trans-generational caravan cuts an unforgiving line through the dunes in a fruitless mission to close its great mad circle, forever missing by just miles. it is a roving, innumerable harem in liege to an unsexed tyrant who sings them this song, reproduced here by resonant hole emissaries jeanne vomit-terror and ed sunspot, as the caravan commits the abominable act of transgressing the horizon into the infant sky-desert “above.” carl calm’s “gulf of night” mix is a monster, as is the great mike simonetti’s perverse interpretation!

ltd to 200 copies! tonkind is coming up with a release of head and founder edgar peng, who worked here rather more on a tool, as you could find it back in the 90ies classified as detroit sound. now >lahars< and >surges< suppose to be a paraphrase of this origin sound. discomposure, harshness and yet a sweet tingling tension is running throughout the tracks. repetitive grooves with a touch of polyrhythmic and bumpy rough surfaces are creating an atmosphere of infinity. once you have closed the eyes and the rhythm is riding your skin, you might feel a certain vibe, followed by a vision of bellevilles backyards.
