love makes the world go around. ÒtwoÓ, the second album by the soul session, is full of love. ralph kiefer, multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger and producer from south germany embarks on a stylistically diverse journey into soul, jazz, funk and world music. being a highly respected session musician in the jazz as well as the crossover scene, kiefer made a serious impact in 2011 with ÒoneÓ, the first soul session album. ÒoneÓ was built on a solid backbeat of soul, hip hop and funk, while ÒtwoÓ now takes a step further into a spiritual and eclectic dimension. ÒquantraversaÓ featuring the voice of las vegas based neo-soul queen georgia anne muldrow is the mind- blowing opener of this album, a truly deep and intense rhythmic statement. quantraversa is a word which you will not find in any dictionary, but that is not the point, says ralph kiefer. Òthis album is a journey to the inner self. the recording process was like meditation. i often started with a loop, or an idea for a melody. it evolved from there and i simply let it happen. when i involved the lyricists and vocalists, my drafts sometimes took a completely different paths and ended in something unexpected and beautifully new.Ó

hamad kalkaba and his golden sounds 1974 - 1975- i remember the day clearly. i was searching for treasures in a record shop in yaoundé, the capital city of cameroon, when suddenly i came across a 7-inch record with a picture of a young man wearing a traditional hat and bearing the marks of several imposing vertical scars on the side of his face, carved when he was just a boy as a reminder of his heritage in the musgum tribe of the northern part of the country.

summer might be on its way but we felt things were getting just a little too ‘nice’ over at x-kalay hq. there’s been bare palm tree emojis flying around for time now and not enough hammers, sickles, cheap fags and adidas tracksuits m8.
next up for xk008 we present mysterious russian newcomer, diego tierres and his solar winds ep. based in st petersburg he’s served us up four of the toughest warehouse burners you’re likely to hear this side of the iron curtain. proper raw material, this is straight out the furnace, blow your doors off, no prisoners shit.

* mikal takes his first bow for dust audio in the form of the spirited ep . the break and bass craftsman reigns down an assault of almighty weight for the imprint which holds no barred. * off the back of his critically acclaimed wilderness album on metalheadz, mikal continues to seek out the dance floor through his precision target and locks on for a serious assault of the senses. * the ep’s title track “spirited” see’s the sinister intro build up and transform into a bass laden drop. the stepping drums and jungle infused shuffles entwine with the ghost vocal, whilst the modulated bass will move even the harshest drum n bass skeptics. unrelenting throughout. * the flip sees mikal spread his considerable studio talent over two further tunes of constant surprise. low note wastes no time in getting to the drop before you’ve had chance to take a breath. a thunderous one note bass underpins the mid ranged reece and stabs whilst the chunky drums compliment the tidy percussion nicely. a haunting vocal then sets off another 16 bars of unclouded rawness. * linear finishes the ep with aplomb. synth chords open up into what you might expect to be a lovely liquid-esque style roller… think again! mikal takes that premise and turns it upside down and inside out before bringing the dirty funk. keeping in line with the 2 tunes before, this isn’t for the faint hearted. definitely one for the drum & bass purest, who may well be dancing, but will also be taking down mental notes!

horatio and javi green met in ibiza and decided to summon their production skills in order to produce something really groundbreaking. horatio & javi did a superb job by fusing together the much hyped romanian techno with some spanish soul flavoured. on the remix duties is the one guy who is truly on the roll right now: ada kaleh .

kalimero records nr. 008 is coming with three all new productions from bacalao & sonne. they slightly renewed their sound into a more cryptic and undefinable kind and reveal a hidden fantasy taken deep from the heart of their musical understanding. and so does the artwork. kalimeros art director created as much space for different interpretations like the music does.

kokeshi chooses rising star of deep dubstep, compa for the follow-up to 2012s epic kompilation cd and sampler. what can be seen from compa on kokeshi is the atmospheric qualities of his music both within the realm of dubstep and well outside of it. the unexpected a side is a beatless beauty, the perfect intro tune, whilst the aa side is the essential meditative subby dancefloor tune that will keep the speakers booming.
