new lp by arp frique & erik (keysie) ritfeld

cape verdean dancefloor magic compiled americo brito & arp frique

with zebra, the fourth arp longplayer, ny-based artist / producer / dj, alexis georgopoulos, has boldly stepped into vastly new musical territory – blurring the lines between electronic and acoustic, between the experimental impulse and the addictive pop sensibility. reaching across genres — colliding modern composition with post-pop structures, dub techniques and three-dimensional geometries — georgopoulos creates a delirious mélange of sound, spellbinding in its range. the 45rpm deluxe double vinyl includes a download code.

dawn dissevers the earth and skies, dragonflies twirl into the light of the suns world no vapour dims the air, twinkling lightness buoys the eyes, during the night i can see leaves flying on the tree branch and settle like tiny butterflies.

the colorful world of arp frique is the exotic and super funky debut album of niels nieuborg. after his surprising, very well received debut release on rush hour, arp frique continues collaborating with orlando julius, ed motta, americo brito, ronald snijders and more! tip! . pulsating nyc style live disco vibes, interwoven with both caribbean and cape verdean sounds, are themes throughout the record with danceability always guaranteed and a healthy finishing touch of weirdness present across most tracks. first single ‘nos magia’ was shortlisted for track of the year 2017 at gilles peterson’s worldwide awards and has been given airplay by bbc radio 6 music, bbc radio 1 and nts whilst club djs antal and hunee have all supported the track in their sets.

(180g vinyl) far out recordings presents a huge peak time space-funk excursion from italian duo ad bourke & rotla (raiders of the lost arp), with a remix from chicago deep-house architect ron trent adding extra intensity to the aptly titled raw.

nice price deal !!! following our quest for inventive approaches within the sometimes tired and highly commodified house / tech house / techno / minimal or whatever you call it scene, we ve gone this time for landesvatter. regardless of having already signed a few full lenght lps on the highly esteemed normoton as well as on under_line and others, joachim landesvatter prefers to keep a low-key atittude. he offers us two great tracks, each one followed by a very special remix. the original of nome is a highly bouncy digitech house track for the dancefloor, with an infectious sinewave to keep you hooked from beggining to end. the remix of nome, in charge of arp aubert (marco niemerski aka tensnake & stephan lorenz) who run the great mirau musik, comes on the form of a hysterical dub house track that literally puts >the roof in the air<. we recommended for full effect to keep the volume on the red. as usual, the second half of the release follows at a quieter pace. hausse is a track on a out to lunch tradition, greatly influenced by detroit but at the same time distancing itself from the current plethora of nostalgics. in-house duo taron-trekka closes the package with a deep remix, rich on freaky jazz touches. we lack words to describe it.
