new double-album >plug one< by coop

brand new year, brand new imprint. coop presents is an all-new record label, founded by ig culture and alex phountzi, set to focus on the depth and wealth of talent that exists within the london bruk movement and beyond, a project which they consider to be a continuation in the same spirit of the legendary coop movement. last summer, the coop presents crew released an ep via first word records entitled selectors assemble . this was the first collective offering from a foundation comprised of uk dance music pioneers and nowadays bruk soldiers, navigating in & around the world of broken beat and beyond over the last two decades to the present day. reinvigorated by recent boiler room sessions, the crew proceeded with more parties, more radio shows, and gained access to an unlimited pool of all-new sounds. the squad were primed and ready to move forwards from the famed days of the plastic people dances, and further explore the evolution of their sound.

first word records are very proud to present a heavyweight ep in collaboration with seminal groove collective, coop: selectors assemble . it s been almost two decades since a bunch of music makers, bored of the genre constraints of their time, began toying with time signature and syncopation to birth what is now known as broken beat. summer 2017, the selectors assemble ep is in our laps and we have a fitting reminder and long-overdue renaissance of one of london s most valuable musical movements.

sounds by oliver night are supported by tony humphries, kerri chandler & seth troxler

mixture of jazz, house, broken beat and hip hop

we proceed with ‘selectors assemble volume three’. the latest release from the coop presents label headed by ig culture and alex phountzi, and the latest instalment of eps featuring an array of artists, focusing on the wealth of talent that exists within the london bruk scene and beyond, a continuation of the sonic spirit brought to life by the legendary west london movement. selectors assemble is an ever-growing family - this six-track selection seeks to introduce more of the collective to the masses, and bring further heat from some of the squad already established. call it what you will genre-wise, this ep sweeps styles, and shamelessly laces up another assortment of certified dancefloor fire. the previous two volumes were supported by a wide-ranging squad of djs in recent times, including toddla t, mr. scruff, benji b, josey rebelle, alex nut, shy one, marc mac, lefto, kev beadle, nick luscombe, simbad, thristian, stuart patterson, bradley zero & mr thing, to name a few

sie haben den fans fünf alben in kürzester zeit versprochen und so ist gumboot soup das letzte album aus dieser reihe. es handelt sich bei den 11 neuen songs jedoch keinesfalls um ausschuss, sondern um abermals gelungene, individuell herausragende songs, mit denen die australier düsteren prog-rock genauso bedienen wie psych- und doom-pop. ltd. lp, farbiges vinyl (orange) + dl

confidence man, das pop-quartett aus brisbane, australien schickt sich weiter an, in diesem jahr der heißeste export aus down under zu werden. nicht umsonst bennent triple j die band schon als the best up-and-coming live band in australia. seit fast einem jahr bringt die australische band fantastische videos raus, lässt sich remixen oder remixt selbst. einen namen haben sie sich aber vorallem mit ihren live-shows gemacht! nun ist es endlich soweit, die elf songs des debütalbum confident music for confident people erscheinen auf heavenly recordings.

fünf jahre nach dem hochgelobten debütalbum -drone logic- wird der in london ansässige produzent daniel avery sein zweites album -song for alpha- via phantasy veröffentlichen. der neue longplayer ist die weiterentwicklung des klanglichen vokabulars von daniel avery. die ideen zu den tracks sind meist unterwegs entstanden: zwischen clubnächten und endlosen flügen, zwischen stundenlanger autofahrten und unzähligen nächten im hotel. die 14 tracks auf -song for alpha- sind ein bravouröser handschlag zwischen dröhnenden klängen, die ganze tanzflächen füllen können und leisen tönen für ruhigere augenblicke, ambient-momente stehen gekonnt den hypnotisch-schweren technobeats gegenüber

see that man on a far off hill, working his dog while attempting to find shelter from the howling wind and driving rain? that�’s the crooked man, the very antithesis of the modern dance music producer. he lives a simple life, dragging his world�, weary soul across the moors in an endless bid to escape the fallout from 30 years spent at the forefront of sheffield�’s electronic music scene. once regarded as one of the steel city�’s greatest selectors, he now admits to being gripped by fear at the idea of djing, and refuses to spend any time in nightclubs.

flume is back! *some minds* featured andrew wyatt, seines zeichen sänger bei miike snow, am gesang der a-seite. die b-seite ist mit dem flume remix von collarbones hit *turning* bestückt. diese ep erscheint als limitiertes white label vinyl und als digitaler download und stream. das video zu *some minds* hat bereits über 2 millionen plays, der soundcloud-link des stückes erfreut sich über mehr als 5.5 millionen plays - und jetzt gibt es den track erstmal als 12 inch!

dance regular is a brand new label set up by evm128 and james rudie of coop presents selectors assemble.

after years of releasing quality house eps, brighton based black key records scores something of a coop: its first full length is a sixth album from tom ellis, a core member and resident of the esteemed freerotation festival who is already well known to those in the know. his beautifully titled, eight track lp from the cabin above the clouds is due on april 4th and comes ahead of him launching his own new label.

aptly titled the noughties, the latest 12 inch from beats in space records features three tracks recorded between 2005 and 2009 courtesy of tokyos humbly dynamic gonno. a dynamic producer who is clearly not afraid to nest until crucial hatch time, gonno flies the coop with a wingspan throwing psychedelic colour at a sunburst sky. blending a spectrum of musical influences and personal touch points about the people (and animals) he has encountered and the implicit joy / sorrow in that exchange, gonnos productions blur the lines between art and life experience.

the dawn ep is the debut release of markey alias sander markey. who recently settled down in berlin, after he was living and working as dj and producer in gent, belgium. now he comes up with four really playful tracks. here he shows his affection for funky grooves and soulful voices. with support from mz. sunday luv, who gave her voice for a freaky intermezzo on dawn, the ep starts offensively. the repetitive groove and the marching 303 bass drum toped with a dark demanding voice have a mystic massage. as contradiction to it you hear a charming dirty string ensemble and an odd delayed snare crushing the monotony. spring break as well as in the shade, the last made in coop with robyns alias yannick robyns, have definitely the warmer funky attitude. playing around with a bobby mcferrin vocal sample and bringing out the soul. facing the clouds is closing the ep as rather melodic and atmospheric track.

supported by luciano, timo maas, pig & dan, anthony collins, woody, dustin zahn. rifraf is rafael gimelstein, recently relocated from sydney to berlin, born in lithuania, raised in israel, flowered in sydney. classically trained violinist, deep as fu*k party organiser and creator of sydneys earthdance festival, rifraf is now full time producer making his distinctive sound in electronic music world. philosophy started as a casual recording of his granny klara telling stories about her time in a concentration camp in germany, and singing the yiddish song tumbalalaika and ended as a very intelligent moving sound collage. the whole peace is a trip, which feeds you constantly with changing noises and visions. although philosophy is transferring a lot of aural information, it is never telling to much and still works perfectly on the dance floor. its just an intoxicating musical tale which drives you on a wild journey. with the both remixes, one of alexkid with his deep as fu*k remix and phillip baders off runner the release get its pretentious dance floor alternatives. fifteen seconds close this fine ep, which rafael did in coop with the young israeli producer omer from tel aviv.
