for the past two years, nils frahm has been building a brand new studio in berlin to make his 7th studio album titled all melody, which will be released on january 26th, 2018 via erased tapes, before nils embarks on his first world tour since 2015.
since the day nils first encountered the impressive studio of a family friend, he had envisioned to create one of his own at such a large scale. fast forward to the present day and nils is now the proud host of saal 3, part of the historical 1950s east german funkhaus building beside the river spree. it is here where he has spent most of his time deconstructing and reconstructing the entire space from the cabling and electricity to the woodwork, before moving on to the finer elements, building a pipe organ and creating a mixing desk all from scratch with the help of his friends. this is somewhere music can be nurtured and not neglected, and where he can somewhat fulfil his pursuit of presenting music to the world as close to his imagination as possible.

indie edition clear vinyl

les disques bongo joe are happy to announce the release of zonder pardon, new album of our amsterdam based superstar don melody club.

pressed on 180 gram double vinyl.

experimental / piano melodies

a mysterious italo-disco release from 1988 brought back to life.

this highly anticipated reissue should need almost no introduction: plustwo’s ‘melody’ / ‘stop fantasy’ 12” (and even 7” version) have long been sought after by both italo-disco and disco/boogie collectors and command high prices on both discogs and ebay.
both tracks represent some of the peak musical achievements of the vibrant italian music scene during the early 80s, skilled performance from talented musicians, tastefully arranged with perfect and unmistakeable vocals from belen thomas.
this reissue is the result of a dedicated effort by hysteric and mothball record, in cooperation with the band, to make this record available to a wider audience.

end to end, back to back solid gold soul & funk bombs are what s contained on this slab of wax! that s right, gwen s 1979 lp has lashings of dope drums, wriggly bass synths, brass and of course, that voice! absolutely stellar tracks on here - all this love that i m giving - famously sampled by cassius on their infamous smash feeling for you is actually the album opener! the whole album unfolds from this point and we re treated to the classy, string laden i can only think of you next. all in all this album has always been one of those rare lp s that has soul fans frothing at the mouth, traditionally a very tough one to track down and always commanding high prices on the collectors market. released on tk disco s cat offshoot label and produced by the equally legendary betty wright (!) this is one sure shot that you ll need on your shelf and on your turntable if you re into this kind of flavour!

finish techno pioneer and dum records boss kimmo rapatti aka mono junk and melody boy 2000 is back with another fine ep of some of his greatest tracks. all three have been released before now, but never all together on the same ep. a1 sound stealer was released in 2007 under the melody boy 200 alias and since then has been hugely sought after, often fetching high prices on discogs. it is a high impact techno track with racing drums and chattery percussion that will take any floor by storm. a2 all alone, again as melody boy 2000, has only been released on cd before now, as part of a label compilation back in 2002. this one is deep and rubbery, spaced out and elastic and is full of moodiness and melody. both b-side tracks were written as mono junk and both were written in 1992. first up, apache acid came on vinyl own music man and is a face melting, hundred miler per hour banger with manic 303s buried within. finally, ‘beyond the darkness’ was a key early techno track to come from finland and has previously been released on dum010. says the artist of the track, “an ensoniq asr-10 arrived on the market and studio engineer perttu bought it right away, but i never liked to use sounds that someone else had made. we sampled the track’s bassline, strings and others from my jx-3p separately and mixed it all together.” the result is an atmospheric track with swirling pads, icy synths and form drums that will make people march, no doubt.

the folk group represents a peculiar work within piero umilianis seemingly endless career. recorded for the background music series, it uncovers the maestros passion for folk and 60s/70s music. its especially characterized by the bizarre guitar improvisation and the incredible and funky underworld, a gem that we recommend to any hip-hop producer!
