welcome to ‘magic maze’ a guided meditation from oslo’s helene rickard. over two sides of a c60 cassette, the norwegian dj curates an immersive journey through imaginary landscapes and possible musics, marrying the organic and synthetic into a deep tissue massage of healing frequencies. showing infinite patience, the camp cosmic regular gradually oscillates between fourth world exotica and pastoral new age, at once opening our minds with the celestial splendour of crystalline chimes connecting us all with future primitive hymns. as we float along under helene’s benevolent gaze we encounter each of the elements, oceanic reverb, vaporous reeds, earthy drones and smouldering tones, each imparting its own ancient wisdom as we pass.
but enlightenment seldom comes without adversity and the mixtape’s most divine moments often appear in the wake of disorienting intensity. fortune favours the brave, and if you free your mind, open your heart and follow the twists and turns of the ‘magic maze’, your rewards with be both earthly and divine.

experimental cinema sonics, electroacoustic research practice and shadowy wind instruments come together to form this unique interpretation of the mythical city of gold. utilising rare, half forgotten soviet era synthesisers vladimir karpov creates immersive soundscapes under the name xyr. the formanta mini keytar and the alisa 1377 lend karpovs music strange, seldom heard atmospheres which the st. petersburg native then combines with field recordings, toy percussion and wood flute to further build upon his utopian narratives. part concept album, part nod to popol vuh, his attempt to channel the thematics of the ancient tale of the muisca people through his modest home studio left a lasting impression on us here at 12th isle and were proud to present a selection of the tracks on vinyl for the very first time. originally confined to just 25 cassette tapes, for this edition we have assembled some of the most inspiring tracks from the sessions as well as the bonus closing piece aguirre song. immediately engaging, sincerely heartfelt and strikingly original, these are recordings we have returned to time and time again. limited edition lp comes housed in screenprinted sleeve. el dorado recorded april-august 2014, originally released via illuminated paths (march 2015).

the album is titled timespan and is by the veteran pittsburgh artist shawn rudiman and will be released on november 24th worldwide on 2xlp and digital. the album is a carefully curated journey through almost 20 years of shawn s music productions. the tracks collected here--the majority of which have not been heard outside of shawn s studio--showcase a producer with seldom matched knowledge of studio techniques, while also hinting at his world renowned live performances. having access to a vault of hundreds of unreleased compositions, we believe this is an important step in documenting shawn s contribution to pittsburgh and american dance music. * artist statement: -all of these tracks are simply snapshots of my life moments. they go from base-level warehouse to more cerebral sophistication. so, take them as such. timespan sums it up well. some songs are almost 2 decades old, some are fresh. it s a paragraph written with words that have years between them. somehow they still all sort of make sense together.- - shawn rudiman

after numerous concerts and performances throughout the last years, summe 1 is andreas o. hirsch‘s first release on makiphon

in 1973, emi records nigeria released the 45 rpm disc fuel for love b/w soundway, credited to a mysterious band called wrinkar experience. the record was a finely-crafted gem of pop-rock and funky soul as had never before been heard coming out of the countryÆs nascent rock scene, and it ended up being the biggest selling nigerian single up until that point. the success of wrinkar experience effectively demonstrated that was a market for homegrown pop and rock, and sent record labels scrambling to sign similar bands, kicking off the nigerian rock revolution that is still being celebrated and discovered by new generations today. but while wrinkar experience launched the movement, the group itself would be short-lived: after another hit single in 1973, the bands frontman danie ian split for a solo career. the remaining principal players in the group cameroonian musicians ginger forcha and edjoo jacques racine tried to keep the wrinkar name going before giving it up and rebranding themselves as rock town express. rock town expresss debut lp funky makossa was recorded in 1974 for arc records, the cutting-edge studio and label established in lagos by english drum legend ginger baker. the album showcased in long format the qualities that had only been hinted at on the wrinkar experience singles: bright, confident pop melodies, articulate lyrics, and darkly potent funk-rock. comb & razor sound is proud to present a new, fully-authorized reissue of funky makossa, featuring the seven tracks from the original release, plus i am a natural man and i dont want to know, from wrinkar experiences seldom-heard third and final single.

vent is receiving another dose from enfant terrible cindy, and it’s just like the relief of the hair of the dog that bit you. relentless and distorted, cindy weaves hypnotic spells of repetition, reminiscent of basement hardcore, punk and no-wave influences. seldom has one heard such artistry using solely a 909 hihat. to round the package of, rebekah adds her take on the aesthetic and holds nothing back.

helsinkis lauri saine is the storyteller for this, the third chapter of fools & fables. pleasingly his irresistible releases dont come along all that often, but when they do, they justifiably make serious waves. small remedies, takes us on a journey to a side of saine we seldom see. first things first, blush cuts a breezy, cheerful path through a warm analogue space, with the mid-tempo throb of sampled rhythms to keep you from drifting too far off course. casual wears altogether looser pants as we just bob to and fro in a hammock while rum-soaked session players jam away in a distant speakeasy. the tropical breeze blows free through leisure song too, as we begin to get the impression finland might actually be a small pacific island.

after the frenzy heat of miami, quantize keeps the fire coming with this release. neil pierce scorches the spring with a soulful groover that sizzles in lyrics & production. neil is on fire and on this release he teams with mike patos to re-introduce/re-produce a classic from mtume. seldom do you hear live bass (john turner) on dance records, and you will appreciate the authentic musical production in this. when you add in vanessa freemans effortless performance on this with vocals that demonstrate that she is the perfect vocalist to re-sing a classic, you are ready she sings of desire and of love with soulful class and delivery.

a couple of years into honing their skills in the studio and behind the booths, the very dynamic duo known as andhim returns to get physical to present us with ‘spayce, the latest specimen of their self-christened super house genre. raised on a steady diet of hip hop and jazz, the cologne-native pair have proven to many far and wide that they are entertainers at heart and envelope-pushers by nature. taking turntables where they seldom go to turn them into instruments, as well as the heavy use of samples and real-world inspiration to set their own creations apart, its fair to say that ‘spayce is just another example of the duos eclectic, eccentric inclinations. two tracks long and spanning from dance floor epic to quirky by way of some particular glitch, piano work and musical hiccups, ‘spayce ep is a very sweet addition to an already original discography.

cassegrain continue their empowering run of techno electronics with *centres of distraction*, their debut album on prologue. leading us on a 10-track expedition into a wilderness of rugged, challenging sonics, the album marks the production duos development from adventurous new-bloods to fully fledged techno explorers.

the long awaited single release from marc evans soul descendant lp *supernatural* is here! this beautifully, funky re production is star studded with musicians and arrangements that you seldom hear on dance music these days. it funks, grooves, and jams with a vibe that we could only capture in a live session. you will definitely roll through the credits in amazement. adding to this release are the remixes of by john morales whos work is the stuff of legends. his mix of *supernatural* will amaze you with his killer drum patterns and wonderfully crafted arrangements. quantize recordings is proud to present marc evans doing his thang once again ... it is supernatural!

vinyl only! dub house is definitely one of waehlscheibes favourite sounds which is all to seldom heard on vinyl these days. so the young record label from switzerland is delighted to have dub house maestro p. laoss (pronounce/future reactions recordings) contribute four brilliant tracks to the new ep. if you are into heavenly chords with masterful delays, soft pads, deep basses and sweet vocals you are going to love this record. classic and modern at the same time, the profound impressions ep radiates timeless beauty in high quality. all tracks have been mastered by above smoke at the hole of dub studio.

a - all those moments (orginal)
so personal as this electronic pop seldom is. from out of the darkness emerges the colors.
b - all those moments (marek hemmann remix)
hemmann is a rascal. snaps the vocals in the front and strips it of a few octaves. the rest is an astounding connection between mareks signature and moorycs deepness: born from marimoory or what?!
comes on white marbled 7 inch vinyl.

falke is the nom de plume of falk golz from leipzig, who lived unseen in kanns musical neighbourhood. he already convinced with his seldom contribution for the family horror compilation and ties in now with an own melted down ep. follow the 3 inimitable dirty and trippy underground house-tracks and be curious about what can be expected more of him in the future.

the great follow-up album to >the seldom seen kid< comes as limited edition double 12 inch, cut on 45rpm and delivered in gatefold cover

gerald mitchel of los hermanos fame comes with his own label handled from his hometown detroit! g.m.i. gerald mitchel international. pure detroit techno in the best tradition of the motor city. title track baby ohh is a uplifting track that radiates detroit techno funk combined with slightly housier vibes. funktropolis and resurrection 2011 are essential tracks for everyone who loves that los hermanos knights of the jaguar sound. soulful techno as you seldom here from producers from outside the d. future classis and an essential detroit techno release!

part i? time track . mokiras time track is the deepest of dub music and electronic gear has seldom sounded this organic. rolling cords and bassline builds slowly towards the dub meltdown. on the b-side silent servant (sandwell district, historia y violencia) produces a rolling wall of sound. this is a high energy, metallic sounding dance piece ready to serve djs around the globe. to be played loud, not silent.

hers is the most anticipated debut album of 2010 and her name is on everybodys lips. seldom before has a young artist so captivated the attention of a generation that she personifies. >the ultimate it girl<, >the new electro pop sensation<, >totally in tune with the spirit of the times<: these are just a few quotes from her reviewers. the delayed >sex dreams and denim jeans< is finally complete. uffie took her time, for after years of continuous whirlwind she needed to take a step back, put her bags down and concentrate on her writing.

huge package with 8 mixes for bones classic >music< speech. >what happened to the music? i remember when we used to dance.< dj bone, trench, samuel l. session, dj 3000, rennie foster, santiago salazar, aaron-carl, stephen brown. colored vinyl.

jack is back you could say, but he has never really left us. far from it, jack is the godfather of all less productions. modern oldschool house maybe? jeazon its >your deal<, is the real deal, beacause the mood of this track is driven by the vocals which was seemingly recorded in the deepest chicago underground. talking large noising the track is most fun on the dancefloor.
>its not the same< is the candy for the costumer, a potential tech-house hymn, seldom before house vocals were so well arranged with a techno track and merged to a neurotransmitter pushing sound impression.
the enliven deep acoustics remix foils the whole thing with the desired portion of funk and is showing perspectives, jack would have appreciated.

with this new ep tom clark makes an impressive return to the highgrade release program. following a collaboration with marcus schatz and most recently with benno blome, he now comes back as a solo artist. after only a few beats, you’ll be sure to recognise his signature sound. tom needs surprisingly few elements to build a unique atmosphere and his matchless grooves. on the title track “scorpio“ we find a deep, rolling bassline and a slightly orientally influenced vocal, combined with the typically unique clarkish synth leads, and we’re ready to go. it’s a track that continually keeps the excitement moving while never letting the cat out of the bag, and more than deserves the a-side. then we come to “albino“, also featuring sparkling synths and rolling drums that create an impression of fluidity and an unhurried beginnings, but we also end up in a waterfall… who would have known!? in conclusion comes “sand flea“, as lively as a box of fleas, but not nearly as aggrivating! mister clark is again at his best, with a love for detail, an innate sence for strange sounds and an a significant quantity of leisurely energy, this tune also really hits the mark. this is not the work of a newbie who produces an aggressive sound to prove his talents. the result is the feature of this ep: seldom has an understatement sounded so fresh. + digital-only bonus track “12 notes“!

sawtooth - lately this term appears quite often and not only in reviews for the new dapayk solo album „devil’s house“. with „acid pornofski“ he demonstrates that the tracks on his album do not mark the end of the story. wrapped in a single release with „right here with me“ and „how low“ on the a-side you can see dapayk’s true colors on the very b-side. and of course it’s a lot easier to do so on a single. like back in the best days of rave you hear the endless modulation of a monstrous acidbassline. everybody who has experienced one of dapayk’s live pas knows how sweaty these sets are about to end. and for the last few months „acid pornofski“ is neither seldom nor randomly the peak

the dutch rush hour mob getting involved in the no info, no sleeve, no messing about techno game, this is undoubtedly affiliated with rednose distrikt, but, you guessed it, more techno-y. if you liked the seldom felt stuff, or aardvarck, or any of the hardwax stuff, you will be digging this in a big way.
