2018 repress in original artwork! the debut album of these two young lads with baseball hats not only honours and delves into a sound that already peaked some fifteen years ago, it also hones and elevates it, without ever falling into the reynoldsmania trap (please see retromania for further reference) or being old gold retold. and this is all oh-so-clear from the very start: the fine flutes of >when its there< go straight to your heart and they do so without any self-mockery or hipster smiles as much as the gasping 303-sounds, chirping birds and healing dx-like bass sounds a few tracks later do. >salty days< - an allusion not to grim times, but to a certain members adoration for the crystalline mineral - is blessed with a coherence that isnt samey, with tradition that isnt leaden and a feeling that is pure.

well known for his minimalistic choice of ingredients christoper rau somehow frees himself of any straight format. songs full of sweetness, a glimpse of soul here, a detroit electro influence there, broken beats, breaks that are no breaks, sexyness and funk and fun.

after the silent state 12inch and neurotransmitting clouds on a secret freeway, a contribution to our and suddenly its morning labelcompilation, stl is back on smallville with a full ep. three outstanding tracks that got everything we adore about him!

it has been the sweetness and warmth of the city of hamburg, its delightful venues such as the golden pudel club and smallville parties at ego that made him diving into deepest music. after >ne travaillez jamais< became the favorite track of all smallville and dial djs and rau played on one of those magic nights the idea of an album was born. the plan was as simple and lovely as the music on asper clouds is. here comes the sun.

due to their stunning releases on underground quality and laid the smallpeople aka julius steinhoff and dionne are back with a real smasher. this time they catched up christopher rau who will be releasing his debut album on smallville very soon. the results of the dreamteam’s jamsessions are gorgeous: two never to stop tunes which will light up the dancefloor with unforgetable hooklines. representing the smallville parties in hamburg, berlin, paris and tokyo the test pressings of this double a-side already created pure magic. meadows is reduced to the essential, produced to the max - a track on point, the way deeper life aquatic is none the less delightful. wont leave your box forever.

bringing the virtuosity into contemporary dancemusic, two protagonists found themselves as being the new dreamteam of the scene: thomas melchior and bruno pronsato. and it works perfectly- melchior, the perfectionist who always sets new standards regarding minimal house music and pronsato, the scientist who discovers the unheard and the unbelievable. both living in berlin, melchior & pronsato connected their world of sound and built one of the loveliest records in the whole universe of reduced deepness. on >puerto rican girls< melchior & pronsato play the most wonderful rhodes-line ever created connected with a never-to-stop-rhythm that could last for ages. it features the voice of ninca leece, who just released a super sweet record on bruno pronsatos imprint thesongsays. pure love! on the b-side >we make it right< brings together what belongs together- a fluffy bassline with that kind groove which makes the sun shining brighter.
