bright uplifting house trax that will change your life forever.

dormancy is a mesh machine-like tweaks and dramatic themes that may have been inert until eddie hales songcraft forces it to stagger and sway with the synthetic rhythm. the title track begins with breathy synths and builds up its momentum with the bouncing beat. impulses is a dramatic dance floor track, fencing chords tangle with the rhythm that pulses constantly. bustling and elastic sound of variant 1 evokes the body to move along its excitable groove. the tensile theme of ju-6 never looses its cools with the stagger drums. jon hesters remix of dormancy keeps the overall theme but adding an old school approach as the track builds up with creamy synths juxtaposed with the clangy percussion.

so gerd and philipp were due to play xoyo one saturday night and the club is 6 minutes from my studio so i suggested we go there first to make tunes for a few hours. we made 2 songs that night and one of them is ‘reach out’. gerd did the drums on my 808, philipp wrote the beautiful lead part on my obxa and i did the bass in my cs80. i added the words a couple of weeks later, they are inspired by leonard cohen’s letter to his muse marianne ihlen on her deathbed. (joe goddard) including fantastic remixes by erol alkan and osborne.

croatian producer ilija rudman returns to classic with his funk-drenched ‘lovers change minds’. well-known for his distinctive analogue-disco sound, the record’s delivery on 12” vinyl comes as a perfect pairing. he remains reverent to his well-rounded retro style with heavily filtered soft vocals complimented by a deep 70s-centric bassline. hot toddy’s bass-focused mixes come laden with electric guitar riffs and synth flares for an even slicker groove on ilija’s smoothly minimalist masterpiece.

half baked resident greg brockmann teams up with good friend odd soul under the moniker oddmann to present their first release on half baked records. bringing three tracks of dark, driving but groovy minimal techno, the boys are bringing a new flavour to the half baked label. these two have really been working hard in the studio and that is evident across the release as they provide something for those dimly lit dancefloors with big sound. this is some serious heads-down trippy music to lose yourself within!

special backstock .. in musik und text verschmelzen über alle titel hindurch stimmungen, eindrücke der sub-sahara konzert-tour von b.friedmann 2013 und fetzen von erinnerungen an eine imaginierte zukunft. sie reagieren auf reale -kpafuca- - -things falling apart- - zustände afrikanischer metropolen und kollabieren zu grooves und phrasen, die an chris marker s science-fiction-apokalyptik ( -la jette-/ -sans soleil- ) erinnern. in dieser polyphonie der un-orte schwingt auch der geist reisender klangabenteurer, zb. der musikethnologischen praktiker hartmut geerken und roman bunka (embryo), deren visionen und musik-wirken sich gegen reduktionistische, essentialistische inszenierungen sträubt. gegen jene kulturellen landkarten, die in die musik immer wieder zwanghaft hineingezeichnet werden, setzt friedman auf -cease to matter- im intuitiven modus die befreiende kraft des rauschens, der Über-mensch-maschinen-musik, der krummen beats und des technischen zufalls-defekts, kurz: das -un-gehör-sam- (johannes ismaiel-wendt) gegenüber der normativen deutungshoheit musikalischer weltkarten. die stimme des aus texas stammenden in berlin lebenden performers und vokalisten daniel dodd-ellis wirkte bereits 2007 auf burnt friedman s album -first night forever- (non22). die lyrics stammen von beiden autoren und wurden von friedmann während der produktionsvorgänge 2013 bis 2014 mehrfach zerlegt und neu zusammengesetzt. die zeile -sky is blue inside of you- ist dem 1932 erschienenen roman -brave new world- von aldous huxley entnommen. tracks 04 und 09 (-cease to matter-) enthalten ein piano sample edit basierend auf einer komposition von georges invanovich gurdjieff (1872-1949).

short description: outernational grooves in dubbed out house compatible version mode - killer stuff

achterbahn d amours machinefunk opus, odd movements gets reworked with 4 sonically diverse remixes. detroit don marcellus pittman kicks things off with a massive, unsettling flip of holy roman empire. the italian producer chevel is up next with a virtuosic take on the lps title track. his cubist, artfully restrained version ends with over a minute of icy techno snap. convextion, as well, chooses to hold back for maximum impact, infusing the moody passagen with subdued electro bounce. finally, sw. imbues the duos konigstr with dubbed-out breakbeat pressure, occasionally allowing the original acid line to seep through a skittering rave rhythm.

greco-romance. it has often been said that the early underground parties thrown by the greco-roman artist collective, party and record label were romantic affairs. maybe it was the punch, maybe it was the music, but love was certainly in the air. and so the third solo ep from hot chips joe goddard picks up where last summers ep *taking over*s love affair with club basements left off.

german melodic techno producer oovation aka peter bonaventura has had a brilliant year. techno legend tesla s remix of his collaboration with hakan ludvigson hit the charts hard last spring, and since then peter has had great success with releases on clubstream, univak, inlab recordings

i am sure joe goddard needs no introduction, the co-founder of greco-roman and leading member of hot chip + one half of 2 bears releases this stunning 4 track ep. the title taking over is, as joe says: a reference to that moment when the music at a club starts to really hit you, when it forces you to focus on it and the night ahead. featuring collaborations with boris dlugosch and mara carlyle, taking over is an attempt to make synthesizers sound nice. the lead single from the ep is the step together which was premiered on the b traits (in for annie mac) on bbc r1 last friday. since that announcement step together has received more plays across the bbc networks. we have big plans radio wise for this track and we expect to see a lot more plays forthcoming across, bbc r1, 6 music, 1xtra, xfm and kiss fm.

garry todd teams up with mic newman for illusion 5 with some proper house music as we like it!

joe goddard is surely one of the busiest men in the world of electronic music: writer and producer behind the world-conquering hot chip, acclaimed solo artist, travelsome dj, prolific remixer, one half of the emerging 2 bears house duo and one of the founding members of the greco-roman record label and party collective. goddards first solo material in 18 months should open with a chorus of angels, before title track >gabriel< strides confidently into familiar territory of londons clubland and its rich musical influences, this time goddard choosing gospel and house as his parameters to create a bone fide underground radio and club hit which currently sits on the bbc radio 1 playlist.

taking us deeper into the night are the four remixes: london veteran seiji fuses house and garage for a 6 minute roller, dfas juan maclean delves into his deep house roots with his new peach melba project, london duo compound one pay homage to gabriels uk garage roots with sweet old school 2 step and hyperdubs ossie turns in a decidedly trippy uk funky hybrid.

dark beat is a new label from glasgow, set up to promote its own take on deep, dark atmospherical techno.
after the success of their digital releases this is our first dark beat remixes vinyl which has cuts from the very popular omen and untamed eps from label bosses deepbass & roman toletski.
on the a side we have oddity with a massive remix from mark broom. his remix of oddity is a no nonsense stripped back techno affair with a ripping synth line, the track teases you with a number off small drops before the massive atmospheric breakdown which would bring carnage on any dance floor.
on the b side we have the orb theory with a remix from edit select who seems to be able to to no wrong with his string of releases on his self named label edit select records. his remix explores the realms of atmospherical techno and has a straight up tribal feel about it, this track has been creating quite a fuss at berlins berghain during the early hours. the track has a percussive drive with rolling snares and a beautiful synth line that rises and fades throughout the track.
the tracks have been getting massive support from dubfire, len faki, jpls, ambivalent, drumcell, audio injection, dustin zahn, perc, dj emerson, alan fitzpatrick, alex bau, anderson noise, danny tenaglia, chris fortier, jim masters, par grindvik, hernan cattaneo, anthony pappa and luke slater.

permanent vacation are delighted to bring you the second chapter of the first space oddities saga compiled by alexis le-tan (music journalist and member of the tigersushi bass system) and jess (formerly of the famed french house duo jess & crabbe and now drummer for punk band 10lec6). the pair met in 2001 through a mutual love of no-wave and leftfield disco. in 2003 jess came upon a big collection of library music, which he bought for next to nothing. whilst he was ciphering through it and finding the most interesting extracts, alexis was digging in all things cosmic, where along the way he also started to pick up many bits and pieces of obscure mood musics. in 2007, they put together some of their best space disco treasures giving birth to the highly acclaimed space oddities project released last july. as the first episode of space oddities was reaching to an end and following the amazing feedback they received, the parisian duo started working on the next volume in the heat of 2008’s sunny days. a new direction was chosen: more organic, guitar lead and psychedelic than the previous one, still focusing on the dancefloor and their love for freaky synths and fierce beats.
