this obscure lost soundtrack for an even more obscure (and also lost and never finished) italia violenta cop movie was recently discovered when i bought the dusty reel tapes from a restaurant owner in fiumicino, a seaside town near rome. panter 777 aka il labirinto di roma violenta aka the maze of violence, he told me, was directed by gervasio giardano in 1981 and was considered too (politically) explicit by the movie production company who dropped the project after the first screening. the soundtrack, an explosion of wahwah funk riffs and juicy analog synthesizers, was composed by an obscure band called nacho patrol. the restaurant owner, who wishes to remain anonymous, was one of the band members and composed most of the tracks.

electric arguments is the first fireman album in 10 years, and this song based album couldnt be more different than its predecessors. for those who dont know by now, the fireman is a collaborative project between music icon paul mccartney and revered producer youth. the pair first worked together in the 90s when they made two ambient dance albums. originally the firemans identity was anonymous and was eventually revealed by the press as being paul and youth. in september it was announced that the fireman would this year release their first brand new material in a decade and this time there was a big difference - the duo had found their voice. speculation began, one studio insider was reported as saying the new songs sounds like arcade fire meets led zeppelin. certainly so far, anyone who has already heard the album has commented on just how accessible electric arguments is, compared to the first two fireman albums. this album is an eclectic and diverse collection of songs that show paul is still interested in pure musical possibilities. each track was written and recorded in the space of one day. the fireman went into the studio with no plan or clear direction of how they wanted the album to sound. the project took a life of its own and the results will surprise anyone expecting to hear the previous sound of the band.

while the woolfy vs projections album got great feedback and is still running strong, we re happy to present you the first remix 12inch from the album with stunning remixes of absynth and the return of starlight by innervisions marcus worgull, whose much talked about remix for the juan mclean is out now and the invisible conga people, who had their impressive debut on italians do it better earlier this year and did a great simian mobile disco remix, which is featured on the recent remix album. both remixes make the track suitable for the dancefloor without loosing the spirit of the original track for maximum pleasure.

permanent vacation present you the first 12inch release from their shiny new joint venture with the great swedish label service (who brought you studio, whitest boy alive, jens lekman, kool dj dust). together they bring us the embassy, a duo from gothenburg that makes the most beautiful songs. their sound is warm and light, but underneath the surface theres always some kind of tension, they sound like an ecstasy fuelled, jewel stealing balearic indie band on a permanent vacation at the riviera. or as they say themselves: underclass disco. the original of lurking (with a distances) sounds like a forgotten manchester rave anthem, while wunderkind tensnake made a little jam session with boney m in his parents basement to provide a heavy remix sporting a great sax and a killer panpipe!

a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. were gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainlly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut. just the way we like it...for int005 we bring you a slow house chugger in the form of break the barriers, done by malaysian born and berlin based frankie flowerz. i have to say, its not by choice i decided to put this track out but a calling... upon hearing this track in frankies myspace player i knew i had to put this out over 12 inches in full scope... i spent some time trying to come up with the perfect match for remix duties and i think weve succeeded with the choice of man of the moment(and soon to be legendary)john daly of galway who turns in a slightly faster, darker and a bit dubbier affair.
