it’s always exciting to introduce new names to the spring theory roster and pedro vian, its latest addition, makes no exception to the rule. it’s also the 10th release on spring theory, so more reasons to rejoice! the barcelona-based producer came to (my) attention with his releases dancing hindus and titled beautiful things you left us for memories on his own label modern obscure music. this ep picks up some of the themes from those records and further explores of his style of elegiac synth lines and primitive drum machines. the sound of dancing alone with your eyes closed, late at night. haunting house for the heartbroken.

when tripping around, sight becomes blurred, sound turns to noise, but scent remains genuine. attractive or repulsive they stimulate the everyday. the equilibrium is essential. scented trip mimics this balance between monotony and interest for you to feel. hooks and harmonies drive one side, while repetition pushes the flip.

spring theory alumni sage caswell returns to the san francisco-based label to deliver his debut album hoop earring. it s an enigmatic record that comes from the producer s own movement through personal transformation. it follows 2015’s sleep quarters , caswell s introspective label debut, and offers 10 tracks spread out across two 12-s. hoop earring is heavily informed by surrealist visions and archetypal images from caswell’s past that have crystallized within the context of this longplay album. hoop earring successfully paints images with broad brushstrokes and allegorical song titles that allows one to fill in fine details of a landscape built within the framework ten songs. “ray of light 95’” alludes to a moment in time that smartly places you alongside an adolescent caswell while songs like “here we guard upon the soul” land locks squarely in the middle with a poignant, nail-on-the-head statement. -zora scales (step 1)- provides a focal reference to the fantasy world that this album might be the soundtrack to.

!! 70% xmas deal !! - last copies left , we re back with aria rostami s czarat ep, spring theory s sophmore release. rostami is a san francisco-based musician whose roots extend off into theoretical dimensions far beyond conventional dancefloor fodder (his material has appeared on labels like audiobulb and crash symbols). for czarat, however, he s honed his approach to produce an unusual dancefloor anthem. melding influences from around the world, the song arrives at something that sounds like acid house and techno as interpreted through an internet-enabled, information rich dialog of the present moment.

spring theory alumni keita sano returns to deliver the latest ep on the san francisco/paris-based label. titled miles, its an adventurous sample collage of a three-track ep that showcases the rising japanese producers knack

two fresh reworks by moomin and tristen of acasuals - spring theory. no repress! thank you a blind jacks journey.

spring theory is proud to announce its latest release, an lp from san francisco-based experimental producer and label alumni aria rostami. titled agnys, it s an intensely personal and introspective reflection on friendship, loss and rebirth in our hyper-connected society. a rumination on a collaborative project started with rostami s now deceased production partner, roommate, and friend shawn dickerson, it utilizes a melodic and ambient techno sound palette to take the listener on a journey that touches on the uncanny permanence that information technology lends to the tragic fragility of the human experience.

the 5th offering of the label comes from la-based producer sage caswell. sleep quarters ep evokes the paradoxically rushed-yet-laidback duality of his hometown, it s a four-track release equally split between music for the dancefloor and music for dreaming. while the first two tracks strive to balance ambience and dancefloor appeal, the b-side is a total departure into ambient space, with immersive walls of sound and waves of delay

mr cole presents a secret record package to mr d at beacons festival, yorkshire 2013. did he receive it? yes he did, the next week he played it at a new york loft party and subsequent sets world over. he loved it! so here we are acasuals spring theory remixed by the loving tenderness of move d. also luv*jam works up a secret nip version.

san francisco/paris-based label spring theory is back with its fourth release. called sweet bitter love, it s a four track ep of manic sample-driven house from keita sano, a japanese producer who s been on a roll lately with releases for like-minded imprints discos capablanca, mister saturday night, and strictly groove recordings. sweet bitter love kicks off with the tripped-out flair of -once i found a diamond.- it s an uplifiting bongo-led cut with dubby melodics that sound like the kind of thing sleeping bag records would have put out in the early 80s. jacques renault provides a leaner peak-time version — complete with hard-hitting snares and growling bass — via his -once i found a diamond (jacques renault trouble funk remix).- things take a turn for the delightfully weird on the ep s namesake -sweet bitter love.- starting like a straightforward house cut, it explodes into a psychedelic collage of spaghetti western guitars, tribal calls, displaced jazz fills, and other forms of cleverly sampled soundtrack exotica. the release wraps up with yet another curveball on -bouzouk.- here sano lays out a subwoofer-knocking ny garage house rhythm that takes a left turn with frenzied bouzouki playing charting arpeggios through a haze of echoing foreign voices. taken as a whole, sweet bitter love is that rare idiosyncratic bomb of an ep that will keep your dancers moving and your trainspotters guessing — in other words, it s spring theory through and through.

after its initial string of records, spring theory is back with its third release of the year: the record is let me love & steal, the latest ep from avalon emerson. in the past few months, emerson has moved from san francisco to berlin and has taken in her new environment s vibrant club culture, and it shows. but this four-tracker is a far cry from the dark industrial cliches that typify foreign expectations of the german capital. instead, her cuts here carry an undertone of playful sampling that balance out the sheer power and energetic intensity of her rhythmic drive — aka its a full eps worth of hard-hitting house music with even more of her idiosyncratic flair.

for its inaugural release, spring theory has tapped san francisco producer avalon emerson for a three-track ep. its called church of somawhich, before you get any funny ideas about huxlean wonder drugs, is actually a reference to san franciscos industrial south of market district, which has been an epicenter for dance music since time immemorial. the record pays homage to her long nights spent dancing and djing in one particularly loved soma warehouse.
