two re-worked tracks from their previous collaboration in 2013 that needed to get released. in 2013 these two friends spent quite sometime in the studio together which cumulated in a three-track release on butanes own imprint alphahouse. during the progression and fine tuning of these three tracks two of them, at one point, got a different interpretation. here they are.

limited to 300 numbered copies. brand new label out of london town! alex & digby channel vintage perlon vibes on this debut 12 on their flash as a rat imprint. stripped back, rolling numbers with an unforgettable vocal loop on the a-side. these will cause absolute devastation on the summer terraces!

the 7th sccucci manucci ep kicks off in moustache curling style with a scandinavian slice of four / four action from tarjei nygard. on loan from his own untz untz records, tarjei nygard weaves his way way through beautifully recorded synth bleeps and bass lines on togo, culminating in a piano breakdown which will have any party reaching for the lasers. the scandinavian vibe continues as dane brian logstrup comes correct with the classic slab of deep house sound that is i can dowhilst we return to the uk and the sounds of london producer mella dee whose uk garage and bass influences shine through on the peak time monster love is. last seen debuting on buzzin fly, alex blaxx rounds off proceedings with the wonderfully insouciant house of its a race thing

following his debut ep for all caps at the end of last year, idle hands is proud to present alex coulton’s next outing on wax. both tracks are tough and low house rollers: all swollen basslines and driving percussion. support so far from pinch and addison groove

debütalbum des londoner experimentalmusikers alexander tucker auf thrill jockey. zuvor veröffentlichte er in kleinstauflagen auf atp recordings. zusammen mit dem neuseeländer daniel beban ist er auch unter dem bandnamen imbogodom aktiv. auf dieser platte betritt tucker neuland, indem er minimalistischen streicherarrangements mit elektronischen, drone-artigen sounds kombiniert, um doomige champer-pop und psychedelische music-concrete kollagen zu kreieren. die lp-version beinhaltet eine farbig bedruckte innenhülle und einen mp3-download coupon.

the vinyl a side of release no.002 is brought by one of the label owners himself. alex niggemann. jewels is a track that gives you the sensation or maybe a vague feeling that something wild is going to happen. alex niggemann builds up the tention slowly. with a deep beat and some ethnical vocals he combines the secrets of an ancient world with the nowadays club scene. the warm toned percussions groove at a pace that definitely makes you move your feet, then your hips follow until your whole body moves to the rythmn. with lots of athmospheric details alex niggemann has created an audio piece to start perfect open air dj sets with. listening closely to it one can determine bells, street noises, sounds of goats or sheeps and a crowd talking. these elements are floating timelessly and combine into a hypnotic wave of sounds. to create a striking dynamic the producer has used calmness within intense passages. but the slightly more suble moments soon open up and harmonic string chords form into the arrangement which are eclapsing in the vocal hook line, one can barely not memorize. after former releases at labels such as hi-freaks and kindisch the recenty formed soulfooled is proud to present this munich dj and producer team with a staggering new track, findling & lihab created a deephouse mix with ol times combining smooth vocals with raw edgy chords.

alex q, der produzent hinter der ep, beweist hier ein vielfaaeltiges koennen, das zugleich durch eine markante handschrift besticht. großartige percussions, sanfte piano klaenge und eine prise dub gepaart mit verspielten melodien machen diese platte perfekt fu&#776,,,,,,,,,,,r den open air sommer.

alex worked together with artists like john aquaviva and released on labels like blue fin, idj, freuqenza or ministry of sound to name just a few. his mate nihil is also well known for his outstanding releases. both came together for this ep and give you 2 huge strong detroit influenced techno / tech house club tracks. this release has amazing energy and will come as strong limited 12 inch on the mysterious 3rd wave black edition. just listen!

here we have one of the most anticipated ad ltd release. its a two track ep displaying these two friends solo production skills. on one side we have xpansul throwing down >formula humo< massive dance floor filler with one of those twisted melodic hooks that he has come to be famous for. on the flip, label boss alexi delano presents us with >operations< a deeper but equally as high of a quality track that has been circulating amongst the techno elite for over a year

limited nice price !!!
volume 4 of alexi s already classic sessions series is here! kick off with >wanna be bad?< , sounding like a ride on a slippery escalator alexi builds upon the rubbery groove. a slow story just as the filter tucks and the drums hit the speakers. listen. the track >im tired< resides on the flipside. syncopated dance steps beneath heavy reverbed clave releases the tone. darting between the metallic 303 appearances the tone continues the wobble. more reverb releases hit as the rolling bass alarms the floor. fresh

ein weiteres jahr ist vergangen und damit ist es zeit für den neuesten teil von taus großer compilation-serie, spektrum.

all tracks written and produced by alexis mauri aka alexkid

darauf kann man sich verlassen: wo joey negro draufsteht, ist tanzmusik drin. seit der 13-jährige david russell lee 1977 in einer tv sendung den song boogie nights von heatwave hörte, ist er vom disco-virus infiziert. und den ist er bis heute nicht mehr losgeworden. obwohl produced with love erst sein zweites eigenständiges album nach universe of love von 1993 ist, hat joey negro in den vergangenen dekaden mächtige spuren im dance-bereich hinterlassen. nicht nur produzierte er zahlreiche chartbreaker, dancefloor-kracher und remixe unter diversen pseudonymen (jakatta, raven maize, doug willis, prospect park u.v.a.m.), vor allem war er für grace jones, diana ross, deep dish, lionel richie, mariah carey, tears for fears, ultra nate, masters at work, roy ayers, blaze und roger sanchez aktiv. hinzu kommen kollaborationswerke, bandprojekte und eine reihe herausragender kompilationen wie die house masters-serie, remixed with love, disco not disco oder kings of house. kurz: ob mainstream oder underground, joey negro ist ein mann der superlative, bei dem einfach jeder beat, jedes hook und jeder loop perfekt sitzt.

after a very successful label launch last year with in aeternam vale - “self destruct” ep, linda records returns with another straight talking, analog fuelled 10”. this time welcoming aboard berlin based russian artist alexey volkov. his three track ep “cold blooded genius” comes finely presented on transparent red ten inch vinyl (limited pressing). whilst staying true to its current white label feel, this time linda s trademark eyes, also a fitting red. on the a side at 45rpm the title track “cold blooded genius” and on the b side two tracks will spin at 33rpm, “unfriendly nation” & “curtains of flesh”. we hate to categorise and attempt to summarise what these pieces of music craft sound like into words, we’ll leave you to indulge for a short time to the machine noise of the highly regarded talent that is alexey volkov.

33 offers the most fine and rare form of sensitivity. nery blends electronic and acoustic patterns as if they grew up together, proving that having differentiated influences can result in something particular.
