born in redlands, california in 1980, marquis howell grew up in a lovely way. raised to appreciate hand-me-downs, secondhand goods & older influences, he started imitating chuck berry riffs on air guitar in elementary school to impress the girls. having little to no luck with the invisible instrument & with many promises & persuasions, his parents bought him his first guitar. marquis took lessons at the local guitar shop and as often as possible he would practice 4 or more hours a day.

turquoise blue recordings was founded with a simple aim: releasing house music that is deep, sometimes dark but always groovy and underground. it is therefore no surprise the label is now releasing an ep by finnish born producer, phonogenic. with previous releases on 20:20 vision, turbo, moodmusic and others, tuomas salmela aka phonogenic has spent most of his recent time in the studio where he is preparing his forthcoming album. despite this, he did find time to capture the true essence of turquoise blue with this brand new ep, bringing us three originals and a collaborative remix from canadian producers the mole and hreno. the ep will be released as a limited edition180g baby blue coloured vinyl with a full colour sleeve on reverse board

hobo (minus, hot creations, tronic) launches his new imprint, soundz, by finally releasing his highly acclaimed hit mind games. after tearing up ibiza and the world over this season, mind games is finally clawing its way out of select record boxes and into record stores everywhere. joining mind games is its evil twin, public lies. equally epic, public lies builds to a fever pitch with familiar but not quite normal synth tones soaring wildly overhead. two monster jams to kick off soundz in that familiar hobo style.

kevin mchugh aka ambivalent officially launches his new amber project with wave of grain, his debut ep for mobilee records. beginning life as a part a one-off collaboration jake & amber on minus - which resulted in this is mine, perhaps the most house track the label ever released - amber captures the lighter side of mchughs sound, which shone through in his ambivalent work, notably via the mischievous vocals of down or the disco groove of his plus 8 ep jackson

joel boychuk aka hobo takes us on a tour of the iron triangle this winter, when the canadian producer releases his debut album on minus - a destination point for the techno artist whose very name embodies both the restless spirit of his productions and his journey from being one half of the former minus duo tractile, to being a recognized star performer in his own right.

after 7 releases, rivulet records says goodbye. the very last release comes from cofounder stanley schmidt in collaboration with his long time friend hobor. the two leipzig based artists had the idea to release an album together for years and to finally bring the work to an end as well as to the label felt just right. the album itself ranges from eerie and otherworldy ambient tracks to banging lofi-jungle sounds. it mirrors the musical taste and exchange of the two artists. listen to it at home in full length, or play it in the club when the time is right – it works both. rivulet records says thank you to all the artists, dancers, listeners and friends. it has been great. leipzig, 2018

vidab x returns with a new artist, faltin, who chooses to remain anonymous, plus a stepping rework by gowentgone aka label owners oliver deutschmann and stephan hill. faltin s phobos is a stripped down analogue masterclass. rolling and snaking, its arpeggiated lead growls with a hot headed tension, climbing while never losing balance and poise. the gowentgone stepper translates the original into a heavyweight, early-morning trip - a certain hybrid of broken beats and techno attitude that melts between genres. waves of euphoria are carried by rumbling drums in this essential version.

hobor is part of many groups and formations himself, such as songs for pneumonia or cointel allstars and the event-series fiktion+masse. his solo project is mainly known for extended dj-sets on various ambient-floors in leipzig and his live-sets - which could be described as cautious investigations into micro-sounds - are mainly based on his work with modular synthesizers. his debut-album on ph17 is a minimalistic, conceptual work that focuses on sound as much as on the way electronic music usually plays. all tracks consist of almost independent layers of sound that behave like improvising musicians. they seem to play together but by focusing on one of them you soon realise they’re actually stoically sticking to there own rhythm and repetition and as the tracks play on these layers of sound start to form ever different constellations. no wonder hobor says he took inspiration from improvising bands like the necks. his album is as fascinating and hypnotizing as one of their live-jams. “constellations is released on 50 limited tapes.

in this e.p, phobos (fear), every artist expresses his most disturbing consciousness, giving us an awesome dose of techno without scruples or contemplations. it is a sensitive group project which is drawn directly into our subconscious. the track phobos speaks from strong foundations and dark shades that put soundtrack to water rojas hallucinations (rojas is the illustrator of this e.p.). in erratic chaos, the composer takes us amid the wrong road map of disorder. phobonica is the end of a tortured mind which transmutes its inner voices in dark melodies, snares and drums. at last, acid panic is a dark acid track built from the fear which follows a tension line made with abstract melodies.

all tracks produced, written and mixed by giuseppe tillieci a.k.a. neel. recorded in rome and curinga between summer 2013 spring 2014. track 4 contains elements recorded in rome, courtesy of filippo scorcucchi. mastered by giuseppe tillieci at enisslab studio in rome.

as a precursor to kabale und liebes debut album, soweso records releases the sammy hoboken ep in april as a teaser of whats to come. almost 20 years ago, liron van daalen was inspired to become a dj after his cousin explained that the mixtapes liron adored were created by one person seamlessly mixing one record into another. that revelation set off a chain of events that has seen him adopt the alias kabale und liebe and rise up to become one of hollands most exciting and reputable electronic music artists.
