lp, includes a 16 pages booklet with an original text and drawings by arto lindsay, plus an essay by thibault walter, curator and senior lecturer in sound studies.

“cuidado madame”, arto lindsay’s first full-length album of new material since 2004’s salt. the album is titled after an infamous 1970 julio bressane film about oppressed housemaids revolting against and brutally murdering their mistresses. the literal translation is “careful, madame.”
the album is produced by lindsay. it features melvin gibbs, paul wilson, kassa overall, patrick higgins, ryu takahashi and thiago nassif.
candomblé (spiritual rhythms revolving around possession and trance) served as the foundation for the record. the process began with recordings of atabaques in brazil. lindsay wrote melodies and lyrics over the rhythms in the studio in brooklyn.
the album is an exploration of the cultural nexus of afro-brazilian spirituality and western modernity.

follow up ep to fcls succesful vocals for everyone ep. three house tracks followed by a more balearic remix by arto mwambe! laurent garnier: back is awesome will hammer this everywhere!

initially, it seems like the original track by chaim is impeccable. and yet kiki, arto mwambe and deniz kurtel each succeed in showing us a very special shade of the life-affirming track, adding to it and sending it out into the world bursting with power.

played by: richie hawtin, sis, robert dietz, laurent garnier, monika kruse, sasse, jimpster, motorcitysoul, brothers vibe, paco osuna... lets go for 2011! the third year of sonido records starts with with a special release - it is the first collaboration of the labelheads timos & paris liamis. the name says it: for the funky e.p. the track >for the funky< on catalogue number 11 is a funky groover with some very effective oldschool house and techno beats influenced by the early 90s. the track >hey hoe< is an extravagant sounding, funky dancefloor killer. it is produced in collaboration with the singer and songwriter julian smith from frankfurt. also the package includes a remix from the well known brontosaurus artists arto mwambé...... hoes lets get funky!

accompanying the miraculous larj edition by arto mwambe, this piece of vinyl features two of the previously unreleased trinkets that were shining through their unconventional narrative of an arto mwambe live set. you get their typical fudge and the duos crush on melodies with duster fc, while one lonely knight can easily be interpreted as a bow to another convincing pair: paris grey and kms wouldnt feel out of place here...

new house label from the under the shade camp introducing the highly rated house producer talent erbeerschnitzel and two very fine remixes by mark e and arto mwambe.

finally after some struggle and some discussions, here we are with the new record called love lift. it contains a superb remix by mr. todd osborn aka osborne, a sneaky dub version by cb funk – known from the story label - and of course the original version .. which has literally been played in every live show so far.. hope you like it…

hum along is one of the earliest productions of mr. mwambe. he started the track in the beginning of 2004 and for the last 4 years it has always been a very important and personal part of his life. only brontosaurus intelligence & ca$h were able to get this masterwork for this lickyboom- boom-down house 12. to complete the commotion full time nice guy, father and electronic innovator move d from the beautiful city of heidelberg sat down to deliver a spontaneous disco version of the track – reanimating the fresh and impro vibe of late 90ies german disco / house productions. the b-side >greatest love< continues where artos mudhutma 12 ends, celebrating the unholy passion of deep housemusic. voila.. a limited number of covers will be hand-printed with another nice torso. as always.

prins thomas charts #1, played by cassy, ata, laurent ganier, brontosaurus strikes back after the furious debut 12inch of the incredible exile missile project. next up is african voodoo believer arto mwambé, known from his release on punkt music and several remixes for output recordings, careless and… brontosaurus. his second single >mudhutma!< displays his raw and offkilter definition of housemusic. a wild and detached combination of old strictly rhythm sound, handcrafted proto phantasy and arto s autodidactic synthesizer-abilities. mr. mwambé definitely plans to get a proper education - next lifetime – so don t worry nerds. until then he ll keep on reigning his kingdom of dilettantism

reworks by ata, cassy, arto mwambe!! steve bug charts + big support from all over!!! fact is that ata/sasse rework a jahcoozi track,upvalues this 12inch with extra rarity bonus points, because usually ata only produces very infrequently and selected remixes. they put your record player in shallow, well-tempered water, while fine sand tickles the nail. now and then you can listen to a groovy, fart-sounding simmer when a warm dubby summerbreeze waves through your ntilnian head. the ex-nord ntiln dj arto mwambe puts all eggs in one basket: modern-bombast! a jingling glockenspiel and fucked-up stottered vocals – all covered up with a squelching drone…

protoplasmatische afro-power mit verwegenen house beats & einer erdigen rock attitüde

c’mon tigre, the innovative music collective known for their genre-blending compositions, releases their highly anticipated fourth album habitat.

lauer always rhymes with power. proven by countless remixes, productions and projects like arto mwambe, black spuma, talamanca system or tuff city kids and his own-brand. there arent many dance floors left that havent been blessed by all this glory. now, the aptly titled third album of frankfurts prime export regarding all things melodic, teenaged and synthesized, intensifies, condenses and hones the sound, he has been developing for years: a topical take on classic dance and 80ies pop figures, disco music in a closet (lauer is still in denial), singing arpeggios, android choirs, beautiful bass lines and sometimes the apparitional architecture of house music.

having established itself with eps from duke slammer and dmx krew, dublin’s modern magic welcomes bari’s armonics for the label’s third release. a trained pianist and resident dj/curator of the we talk event series in his home city, armonics draws influence from electronic music across the past 40 years: chicago & acid house, italo- & electro-disco, new wave, synth-pop and vaporwave.
his italowave style is a fusion of these retro-futuristic and cosmic styles, forged through armonic’s production processes which include cassette recordings, vintage synths & modern korg/roland gear. the look alive ep is the producer’s second release, following a debut on slow motion in late 2016.
accompanying the ep’s three original tracks is an anthemic, piano-led remix of red eye by international feel act black spuma, aka lauer (tuff city kids/arto mwambe) and fabrizio mammarella (telespazio).

after putting out kito jempere s stunning sea monster album earlier in the year, hell yeah now serve up a bunch of remixes from it that have been secret weapons for the last few months. behind them are black spuma, lipelis and bell towers and they all serve up real heaters. first up with possibly their best ever remix are black spuma—a collaboration between phillip lauer (tuff city kids, arto mwambe) and fabrizio mammarella (telespazio)—who flip ampa into a bootylicious house cut with fat bass stabs and sci-fi synths. it s retro in flavour and riddled with melodies that are brightly coloured and emotive, and when the vocal is layered in it helps carry you away on a wave of bliss. for djs who prefer to keep things raw, a dub version without the vocals is also included and bangs that bit harder.

already drawing comparisons to artists like kaytranada and pomo, french producer and multi-instrumentalist jean tonique gets set to become one of the most hyped artists in 2015 with the release of his second ep through yuksek’s partyfine label on 30th march 2015. drawing influences from 70s funk, jean tonique makes an effort to distance himself from genre-defining elements while approaching his music from an organic and raw songwriting perspective. using elements from hip hop, house, and 70s/80s funk, the multifaceted producer likes to draw people in with the malleable dynamics of his music. after remixes of lana del rey, outkast, the kooks and many more, jean tonique has broken into the online market through being a regular fixture on hype machine’s top 10 and growing recognition from media outlets. now, growing on his french electronic music notoriety, jean tonique is preparing to expand his presence with the physical release of the you ep - bringing that old school, happy vibe that made us fall in love withfunky house

house is oks seventh instalment goes kraut with a three tracker from chris beiswenger formally known as tcb (the citizens band). since the split up of arto mwambe, chris has been slowly building a sound of his own. instead of sticking to standard templates he has gone deep into modular synthesis and his music can be described as futuristic, kindred and cerebral. labels such as live at robert johnson, tasteful nudes and story already recognised tcbs unique twist and rather happy songs is just another proof of his unquestionable quality. these three mid-tempo techno ballads will get your mind moving and spirit floating while your body will fall in instant trance dancing to these highly hypnotising pieces. a remix from roman flu?gel on top makes the ep a 100% frankfurt affair and when it comes to house and techno, we frankfurters take our green sauce serious, dont we? cheers, hiok team

tck are gerd janson , who otherwise runs the spledid running back label and philipp lauer, who produces grand music under his own name and is half of the fantastic arto mwambe. they just remixed sven väth among many other fab projects, atop that are both irresistable deejays and have a pedigree of being some of the nicest blokes that we know! but that all said, you havent eventually heard the best. its called pf01.02.03.04 and are their tracks made for this record.

kaet ep is the fourth installment by cavaan on the young label treat your dj right. this release includes a remix by the allmighty and running back label owner and panorama bar resident gerd janson together with his arto mwambe partner phillip lauer under their cocoon alias tuff city kids.

immer noch hungrig auf mehr brontosaurus? jetzt gibt es den 2014 nachschlag und das letzte kapitel der großen brontosaurus saga! zwei brandneue tracks von arto mwambe und exile missile, die ihr versprechen von staubiger, melodie-befeuerter, euphorischer house musik halten, erwarten euch. und als bonus bekommt ihr die hymne the mothership von der band extra produktionen, der anfang der nullerjahre nur schwer zu entkommen war. aber warum haette man das auch gewollt? man kann es sich einfach immer und immer wieder anhoeren.

tasteful nudes is honored to host the *smalltown blues ep* by christian beisswenger, whose music as cb funk, arto mwambe, and the citizens band has been hugely influential on the labels sound. the eps four tracks showcase four compelling facets of the citizens band sound: the ethereal stomp of the title track, *disrupted*s livewire techno synthesis, the modular adventures of *eddys theme, and a dark, mischievous italo workout on *freefall*.

vier jahre lang existierte das frankfurter label brontosaurus. zwischen 2006 und 2010 hat der macher philip lauer zahlreiche tracks veröffentlicht, die für wirbel sorgten. dass dieser sound auch jahre später nichts an faszination und glanz eingebüßt hat, stellt diese doppel-vinyl-compilation unter beweis, die acht brontosaurus-highlights von lauer, arto mwambé, extra produktionen und the exile missile nochmals auf vinyl erhältlich macht

new slightly off season various artist release! the label say: >after last years summer special in the winter it looks like the calendar at wphs hq is up to par again! luckily so is the music, as this edition of the summer special series focuses on three tracks that were about to get lost in the ever-growing jungle of digital only releases. but like a true dr livingstone red d set out to find these babies a home on vinyl, so here we are!<

following the extraordinary outings of his 2010 debut 12 inches on phantasy sound (summertime our league / havai), and an album and mini album in 2009/11 respectively (weekend / preparing a voice to meet the people coming) on perdizes dream/glue moon, sao paolo based babe, terror returns with knights ep his visionary take on modern sampleapsychedelica or wdm (wrong dance music) as he describes it, composed under the influence of the cadence of life. this heady stew of unsettling aural landscapes and lush, cinematic stories, have earned him the admiration of the new yorker, said the gramophone, the guardian, coke machine glow and uncut as well as the likes of arto lindsay, four tet, james holden.
this isnt your average piece of vinyl as well as >five killer tracks of skewed house / hynogogia<, it features etched illustrations around the edge and in the centre. oh, and listeners have to play it from the inside out – i.e. the stylus needs to be placed in the middle of the record…

gerd janson (head of running back) and phillip lauer (dj, producer and 50% arto mwambe) step out of remix mode and release their first 12 inch of original tracks as tuff city kids. the ep is released as a hand stamped yellow label in a green generic paper sleeve and is the second release on ostgut tons new sublabel unterton.

phillips is the magnificent debut album by phillip lauer on running back. frankfurts melody man has amassed a body of work that includes the adventures of arto mwambe, top singles (delta nrg) on his extinct brontosaurus label for permanent vacation or live at robert johnson as well as remixes for the likes of maxmillion dunbar or with the tuff city kids project. the twelve songs that make phillips have been described as 808 state kissing movin records while cluster are in the room –, or a dolby nr tempest. whatever you want to call it, it has all the ingredients and romantic notions that can make dance music oscillate between the sacred and the profane: house, gloomy gothic grooves, cock-eyed electro, new wave trance and lots of songs without words. the power of lauer. available on cd, nine track gatefold lp and digitally. escorted by two tensnake remixes of trainmann on rb032 and more to come…,.

the citizens bands second instalment for ramonas favourite label hollows their long lasting love affair. christian beisswengers (cb funk, one half of arto mwambe) is nothing less than dealing with the demise of an empire. >broken rome< is a codeine trip through early nu groove rave tracks as well as an ode to junior vasquez at the helm of the sound factory seen and heard through frosted glass. >densed< on the other hand tips its toes into the current deep house stream with an arto-mwambe-like hook and a thumping bass line. the spaces in-between those rudiments are taken up by the idm finger exercise and jewel that is >into<: ottoman dancing!

joashs debütalbum >dont fear it, fight it< hat sich längst zu einem geheimtipp entwickelt. es hatte sich in die herzen vieler produzenten gespielt, einige von ihnen hat es zu remixen inspiriert. drei davon finden sich auf dieser maxi: arto mwambe (aka lauer/brontosaurus), tj kong & nuno dos santos (compost) und till von sein (suol/morris audio/baalsaal).

when no one is watching ramona, is usually listening to future times records and beautiful swimmers all days. maxmillion dunbar is not only half of those aquanauts, but also running the label and releasing music as max(million) d(unbar). what a guy! hanging out in the vague territory between slow-motion house with a hip hop feeling or dubby and dubious fun music, his melodious approach is extremely hard to categorize but all the more enjoyable. >polo< already saw the light of day on >max trax for world peace<, but ramonas favorite dj ata and live at robert johnson manager oliver hafenbauer were so much in love with the bleepy bonbon that they offered it a place by their fireside. now cautiously modified, fine-tuned and extended for its label home, its a rainforest serenade for beatnik boys and girls, with all the ingredients you want from tha d. the only kid able to thrown down the gauntlet in front of maxi is frankfurts melody man phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus, etcetera etcetera). turning >polo< into one of his trademark sluggish bass line barrage tracks with falsetto synths and sharp snares. get your vogue brogue out.

ramona is pretty nervous to welcome a new name to her ever-growing happy family. in fact, its actually an old band member. christian beisswenger alias cb funk alias one half of arto mwambe is not exactly one you would call a stranger. for >77 reasons< he debuts as the citizens band with some novel sounds on risky grounds. in love with details, fragile sounds, little tricks and with a fine ear for the action, the band leader tiptoes into deep bleepy house just enough to call >west 42nd< exactly that. >77 reasons< however plays around with a memorable little melody, a skanking lead and some boom sonics. whatever you want to call it, ramona is fine with it. orson and kane would be proud.

the new age sound of frankfurt! hot on the heels of massimiliano pagliaras praised album debut focus for infinity youll find a neat 12inch of top-quality remix action. first up, frankfurts version of a young peter daou aka phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus) and running backs gerd janson (who spend a big deal of his youth trying to perfect a weak bobby konders mimicry) team up as tuff city kids. offering two takes, pagliaras >a wrong chance< gets split into a sweet layer cake of bass, synths, strings and for those who are faint at heart, an additional riddim version provides hidden acid fantasies. upside down, oliver hafenbauer and christian beisswenger (arto mwambe fame again) keep on exploring their sharp electro funk under their b.h.v.f moniker. with a playtime that exceeds nine minutes, you get right twists and wicked turns and most of all sounds unheard. modern music with an old-fashioned style of lovin.

supported by: ame, dixon, djulz, martyn, basic soul unit, peter van hoesen, scuba, deetron, jimpster, luke solomon, lexx, arto mwambe, nic fianciulli, laurent garnier, fred everything, reboot, josh wink, alex dallas, catz n dogz, shit robot, benji b, karotte, dj nature, hunee, roland appel, tony rodriguez, meat, ewan pearson, .. mild pitch proudly welcome tim toh for their 10th release. tim first appeared on the international radar with his striking three-part series >join the resistance< on philpot records that instantly put him on the map and into the crates of djs worldwide. further releases and remixes for tiny sticks, ornaments and last but not least his remix for manuel tur on delusions of grandeur made it only logical to have the young pforzheim resident contribute an ep for mild pitch. >ménage à trois< sees the young german return with his very own distinct style that sticks out from a million. imagine kyle hall, omar s and maurice fulton riding a merry-go-round: this is not for everyon

b.h.f.v is the collaborative effort of arto mwambes cb funk and the live at robert johnson label manager oliver hafenbauer. originating from a cross-pollination of graffiti, train stations, red light districts and frankfurts club music roots, et 01 and et 06 are both all that those x-men and egyptian lovers ever wanted. two tracks, one sound. blueeyed electro-funk with sharp snares, jeep-boomin bass and haunting melody lines. retro fascists beware! this aint a historically correct or nerdy carbon copy, but a blast from the futures past. fresh as champagne morning dew. hip hop be bop.

january 2011 marks the 5th anniversary of the label and to celebrate there will be two very special releases, the first of which brings together new killer remixes of tsuba classics. the one and only sebo k remixes nina kraviz & okain creating a true peak time house bomb. arto mwambe deliver an atmospheric acid mix of label boss kevin griffiths and art department live up to the hype with a synth driven mix of dyed soundorom. all in all a fitting package to celebrate part one of a very special birthday!,

philip lauer aus frankfurt ist der macher des gehypten house-labels brontosaurus, einer der resident-djs im robert johnson und teil des house-projekts arto mwambe. das piano-house-monster >delta nrg< ist zwar bereits auf brontosaurus erschienen, aber nie über den status einer geheimwaffe hinaus gekommen. heiß und brandneu ist der schöne mock & toof-mix und ein high nrg-track von lauer selbst

jamie lloyds sophomore album gets remixed by some of our favourite newcomers and older legends. tuff city kids are gerd janson from running back and phillip lauer from arto mwambe and brontosaurus. as expected these two come up with something unexpected, think bobby orlando.
