warsaw based duo private press join rekids special projects this july with four deep techno cuts entitled ‘zero sum ep’. hailing from poland, adam brocki and jan wóycicki make up private press – a project that’s released sought after cuts on labels like technosoul and indigo aera. the duo is also known by the name raw feelings, however many will be familiar with brocki’s newborn jr. alias, which has dropped releases on rhythm section, echovolt, dopeness galore and les yeux orange. ‘miracle man sets the tone with delayed resonant synths accompanied by crunchy and distorted snares before ‘becomes the prime’ opts for a lo-fi sound with filtered synth blips and enigmatic vocal slices. on the flip side ‘tooms’ delivers heavily reverberated horn-like stabs, modulated synth lines and an underpinning bass that rumbles throughout as ‘clan’ offers a fast paced cut with high pitched whistling that echoes alongside a thumping kick drum and organic percussion to bring the package to a close..

astray is the sublabel of away, berlin.having showcased his more experimental on-edge techno design with his first two astray releases, discrete circuits control zero ep marks his most straightforward installment yet. the title track gets down to business without detours by growing into a powerful drum avalanche that combines bone-dry kicks with a frenetic atmosphere - point-blank: peak-time techno for the dance floor. ed davenport completes the a-side with a remix from his dj and production alter ego inland, who adds more muscle to the lower frequencies in order to retell a darker tale unfolding a cutting groove. although both tracks on the flip pick up the pace and intensity, they venture out into less dense, more emotional directions. dimensional equivalent embodies a no-nonsense rollout that builds an icy groove with a kick drum that, only blended by alerting, dream-like synths, never lets up. conjugate works with similar vocabulary while repeating bleep sounds, that are buried underneath the pounding grid, shift the focus towards both the varied percussion and the narrative progression.

east man is a new project from anthoney hart and its material predates his previous work as basic rhythm. his unique take on grime reduces the sound to its steely fundamentals, bringing in influences from dancehall, drum and bass and techno to gird the voices of the mcs he works with. his own name for this hardcore continuum mongrel is hi tek.
anthoney struck a friendship with the academic and theorist paul gilroy, who wrote the album introduction below, after starting personal research on representations of working class and mixed race families. he asked paul for some help after coming across his work via stuart hall, paul’s mentor. their discussions and friendship developed, and it dawned on anthoney that his research and the east man album had some synergy, so he asked paul to write a piece conveying that.

low blow, the lead track, has featured in the sets of goldie, noisia, randall, doc scott and many more for a while now, and has already achieved the status of dancefloor killer well ahead of its release. benny l continues on this path throughout the ep, showcasing a colossal sound that we’re very happy to have on the label.

new label tell zero records hits the ground running with a 10” ambient white label that digs deep.

moscow based multi-talent impish has been steadily honing his skills working through labels such as program, c.i.a. and his own fast rising occulti music imprint. it’s that last label that saw him release the critically acclaimed “silence” lp back in 2016. fast forward to the autumn of 2017 and a new album project the “hush” lp is set for release through all quality physical electronic music outlets around the world. being the perfectionist that he is, impish continues to impress working on crystal clear music productions where impeccable drum work is combined with organic touches and progressions.
the second “hush” lp sampler features three cuts of the album. first up the well respected irish drum & bass producer zero t takes up remix duties for “solid”, turning the stripped back original stepper into a wavey hard hitter with the remixer’s sound plastered all over. continuing with “let me” featuring uk based vocalist kate wild things heat up quickly where soaring bass sounds complimented by soulful vocals and tech-like stabs make for an intense drum & bass experience. last but not least we find the original mix for “solid” featuring fellow moscow based vocalist julia marks. it’s an easy listening, thoughtful piece of drum & bass with driving beats for the dance floor but harmonies for the mind and soul.

naoki e-jima s disc shop zero record store in tokyo holds a special place in our hearts. since before idle hands was even established, when rooted records was king, the cosy, liberally stocked shop has served as a sympathetic outpost for bristol s rich culture of soundsystem music. over the years, naoki has championed all the best music to come from our fair city, from smith & mighty through to pinch and pev and on to the output from our own humble label. it s been a vital connection to help our music reach the right heads on the other side of the world, in turn providing a platform for our most treasured artists to gig and further the cause of the music we love. as a thank you for all the support naoki has shown bristol music over the years, idle hands has put together a special tribute 10inch of tracks that chime with his particular musical tastes, shining a light on some complementary gems that might have otherwise never seen the light of day. its also a chance to fill in the missing idle013 catalogue number – fortunately, the number 13 does not represent bad luck in japanese culture. on the a-side, the mighty (pun intended) rob smith takes to a track from outboxx s debut album, originally intended for a remix 12inch that never came to be. in his learned hands, lost soul becomes a shimmering stepper marked out by beautiful cascading arpeggios and of course plenty of fulsome bass, with arresting fragments of vocal drifting in and out of the mix for good measure. rob s status as a true legend of bristol music needs no explanation, but his presence here is furthermore because naoki is such a fan of his music. on the b-side, atki2 makes a welcome return to the label after bringing a classic ray of sunshine to idle hands on the second single we ever put out. as well as being a big release for us, it was apparently huge at disc shop zero, so it feels right to bring the effervescent hes royal to this 10inch release. with a sunny disposition at heart, these two tracks make sense sharing a 10inch, but it s even more fitting that they sit side by side as we doff our caps to a true hero of the global underground. thanks, naoki.

toulouse-based dj verset zero released his new ep sacrificium through amok tapes. the envisioned art-concept continues unfolding a religious storyline with a statement ingrained in a sombre and sinister industrial sound. he will be performing a hybrid live set at the dada temple 2017 in paris on the 10th of february. further tour dates should be announced shortly.

nice price deal !!! the kooky scientologist should need no introduction - unless you dont get fred giannellis sense of humor. hes played everywhere, for everyone, and killed it every single time. smartypants, aka mike uzzi, has released on traum, sentrall, and of course zero g. he is a staple of the north east underground party scene. rounding out the compilation is zero g label boss eddie o., known for his releases as triton on both zero g and skor. the first minicompilation on zero g sounds features the best of the old school and new school. representing the old school is the legendary fred giannelli, aka the kooky scientist. this time around as the kooky scientologist, fred gives us a dose of what it really sounds like inside the head of tom cruise. demonetics rides a fat bass line, up-front stabs, and layered percussion. just when you think youve figured it all out, it takes a left turn as we are treated to freds signature quirky melodic noises

the quiet before the storm. the abyss before birth. the moments that came before everything else. this is episode zero, ben gibson s inaugural album on chronicle. it takes us soaring through a musical narrative, beaming down into vast acoustic valleys of sound. from the very rst notes the intent is apparent, lucidly slipping into a pool of full moon atmospherics. departing deeper he carefully calculates each and every step, building momentum and pace until the way back is completely forgotten. tracks like -foreclosure- reach peak potential with crushed, mangled percussion, while others such as -symptom- maintain a more seductive yet equally deadly pull. building upon pillars of 12-s, chronicle and ben gibson are now venturing into a new territory with episode zero marking the rst step. join us.

nice price deal !!! limited backstock on this 2007 minuendo release, featuering oscar mulero under his trolley route moniker back to back with arcanoid.

nice price deal !!! with andrew frame we are happy to welcome a new face at level non zero. he became famous because of his releases on pv, planet vision, elektrolux and phono elements (azur taint). on lnz he demonstrates once more his longtime and versatile production experiences. the a –side >blue matrix< shows up with an experienced teamwork of a sequence and the atmosphere together with a ping pong baseline which drills into your head and finds its climax in a break with scifi sounds. more than just a good dj tool ! hands up ! >ambervision< on the flip side gets its face from a discreet melody which flyes over the baseline and the mood thru the room. a nice tune for early morning sessions

‘race to zero’ is the new album by musician and composer john matthias and producer, musician and composer jay auborn.
the album’s starting point was a series of acoustic improvisations recorded in a variety oflocations, from a 700 year old chapel in the devon countryside to a basement studio in reykjavík, iceland. in an attempt to create a fractured sense of space reflective of the digital condition, the duo found themselves working within a place that could only exist in the digital landscape.
by crushing the recordings through a hundred different virtual rooms of reverb and other chaotic digital processes, they collided, soared and splintered into sweeping new rhythms, melodies and drones.
the outcome is a unique landscape that blurs the line between the virtual and physical worlds.
the vinyl release includes a download code.
