jonny rock a familiar face on the london house and disco scenes is recognized by many for working behind the counter at phonica records & blackmarket records during the 00s and as the dude for playing the guitar in freaks project. rock skillfully joins the dots between the old school house, underground disco and boogie vibes in a party setting.

one sided limited vinyl release: trippy, psychedelic electro-techno romp encouraging dance-floor ruckus and scrambled minds. complete with all manner of bleeps, voice manipulation and otherworldly sound effects.

somewhere between extraterrestrial techno and intergalactic disco lies oli silva. a waveform of multi-dimensional energy filled with analog heart and electric soul. his first outing finds him land his spaceship directly on craig richards the nothing special, with the genre bending unlikely punctuality ep.

craig richards 2013 track sleeping rough is finally repressed alongside two new mixes on the flip side b1: trying to sleep remix and b2: trying not to sleep remix.

“sometimes life can kick you in the nads”, says dominick martin (aka calibre). “when life does do that, i need to make music like this. with its tones of hope and gospel-level layers of self-recorded vocals. raw, uplifting, soulfull...” even to the most ardent of calibre follower, “grow” sounds like nothing else he’s done before. yet it’s not actually on the album it gave a name to. partly because its ultimately positive veneer (even though it was written in the midst of two toxic relationships - one personal, one with the bottle) doesn’t quite complement the deeper, more contemplative aesthetic of the album. but also because this is the start of a whole new story for calibre...

three releases from dbridge & radioactive man aka dbrm on the nothing special label - all bundled up for one special price!

despite building their careers out of strikingly different musical places, both dbridge and radioactive man have taken influence from the field in which each other operate. dbridge (darren white) was part of the iconic drum & bass outfit bad company and he helms one of the scene’s most solid and quality imprints in exit records and radioactive man (keith tenniswood) was born from the acid house scene and the off kilter electronics of his two lone swordsman projects (alongside andrew weatherall) which led him to create his decidedly uk take on drexciyan electro. it’s by no means a stretch to learn that both producers have crates that contain their favourites from each genre but they’ve also found a mutual respect and connection in the studio over the last few years, leading to the dbrm moniker for craig richards the nothing special label.

at the 2014 sxsw festival in austin, texas, bacardi turned the movements of 100.000 wild bats into an exclusive music track. using bespoke motion tracking technology, the team used the swarming of the bats to trigger unique beats and mix the tracks tone and tempo as they flew. this limited vinyl pressing of 200 copies on 180 gram vinyl features three craig richards remixs of that track

chewed up and spat out the other side of the uks acid house scene, neville watson was bitten hard by the house music bug and has not looked back since. his brand of deep, raw and jacking house has been released on labels like clone, dissident, rush hour and creme organisation. neville says: i kind of like music that sounds like it is all about to start falling apart at any given moment. there is plenty of clean music that i do like but as a rule i like it rough.

to accompany the release of especial s compilation mix cd, -eleccio- - offering of a snapshot of the first 9 eps on the label - a limited edition sampler ep is being released featuring 4 unreleased remixes from the label s roster to date. ever since the first white labels appeared at the end of summer 2013, emotional especial has had a busy release schedule, putting out music that are a slightly warped take on club music. mixing the influences of dub, electro, disco, proto-house, house and techno, a feeling, a sound, a vibe has appeared without any preordained plan. with the release of ees10cd - a dj meets studio compilation mix created by label mainstay and handyman, jamie paton - to mark the end of first series of the label, it was decided to included a couple of specal unreleased remixes to add a bit of new with the old in the mix. to that end this limited edition vinyl sampler was created to include the two remixes, plus the inclusion of another two gems that simply needed to see the light of day. first is the alternative -member- remix of inhalt by black merlin - a strings meets leather bar club-dub-out that takes things deeper and darker than before. this is followed by jamie delivering his own take of khidja s massive mustafa, with a warped, swamped out dub. next is another mix from cage & aviary of their pals, blancemange. brooding low-slung rerub dub anyone? finally there is a very special remix by khidja of the ganges orchestra. reissued on emotional rescue in 2013, this special remix takes the vocal mantra of the original and creates a balearic-raga tale that perfectly rounds off especial to date.

following their acclaimed debut album, migration, on prins thomas internasjonal label in 2012, jamie paton and nigel hoyle (aka nigel of bermondsey) have seemed relatively quiet save for the odd remix here and there. tucked away deep in their south east london base though, a series of remixes and solo projects have been steadily forming. with new c&a material planned for 2014, plus more to come from jamies new solo efforts, as well as nigel making a long overdue reappearance in maurice & charles, now seems the right time to draw a line under their collective work to date. here then are a collection of unreleased interpretatons, including the sought after vocal remix of psychedlic darlings, in goats anthemic run to your mama. this is followed by a late night dub of 80s pop duo blancmange that mixes strings, guitar and some dub bass with a dose of space echo before bringing neil arthur s classicly recognisable refrain shining through. to finish is a remix of goats label mates teeth of the sea. fx-soundtrack vocal, bubbling 303 and 808 combine on a proper 3am dub that builds beyond some mere drug-chug.

all tracks written and produced by jallokin at deaf zone terminal 2. a1 decomposed by pink elln at null prod. studios, miami. b2 decomposed by narcotic syntax (james dean brown / frank ford sinatra) and recorded at perpendicular sound, san narciso. b3 repiled by jallokin at deaf zone terminal 2... inlc the legendary >epic< ep by pile from 1996 !!
