john fm presents his american spirit ep

sight set on the star-studded dome s upper layers, interplanetary observer and vibrant atmospherescaper his master s voice steps up on kczmrk with his longed-for debut album, two years after the drop of his breakthrough ep, -sirius incident-. continuing on the path of stellar sound exploration, -log: canis majoris- - referring to the other name of sirius, first star ever uncovered capable of heltering extraterrestrial life - was conceived and developed as the extended travelogue to hmv s long-haul imaginary journey on the said celestial body.

following a standout appearance on dvs1’s mistress label with his “just pain” track, the man from minneapolis, doubt, returns to don’t be afraid for the first time since 2014’s “poor dog” ep. in the interim he has continued to record on disposable commodities under the doubt moniker, whilst also exploring experimental and ambient sound under the name time heals nothing.
for his most inclusive outing to date, doubt mines the outer limits of minimal house music whilst still maintaining the vibe of alienation and melancholy that characterises his work. the mood of “april” is euphoric and carefree but dig deeper and the fragile beauty also suggests an impending and ominous apocalypse. “what is happening” and “samusex” counterbalance the a-side’s brief suggestion of joy with a mood closer to doubt’s previous work. the title track meanwhile recalls the work of labels like ifach and trelik with a swinging, stripped down dub sound.

in the midst of a busy year, full of wildly-varied accomplishments, david lieske (aka carsten jost) has surprised us all with an unannounced 11-track full-length album on dial-- his first since 2000’s “you don’t need a weatherman…” in the interim he’s kept busy curating countless releases on dial, the label he co-runs with peter “lawrence” kersten, celebrated a 15 year label anniversary with an all-encompassing 2lp/various artists

are we all tired of the *artist returns after number years in obscurity* headline yet? because michna sure is. nearly seven years following the nyc dj/producers debut album for ghostly, magic monday, he has finished the official follow up to that record, but adrian yin michna doesnt want to overstate what happened in the interim. *life just moves,* he starts casually, *there has been a lot going on.* dj gigs, music production for video games and commercials, and film scoring have kept him busy, along with a healthy balance of painting, biking, and other non-musical endeavors. in light of michnas sophomore lp, thousand thursday, though, it all seems beside the point. simply put, his latest record is a celebration of the producers love for vibrant electronic music, bothering very little with conceptual or contextual baggage.
the vinyl lp includes a code for free download of the full album.

one of the uks most established and consistent deep house producers, jimpster, is due to drop his eagerly anticipated porchlight and rockingchairs lp. his first studio album in six years sees him continue where he left off on the 2006 masterpiece amour by taking the blueprint of house music and infusing it with an attention to detail and musicality often lacking in much of todays more disposable dance music. during the interim period, jamie has maintained a key role in two of the uks most successful house labels, freerange and delusions of grandeur, where he continues to pick up and establish new talent at an impressive rate. over the course of his 23 year career so far he has remixed everyone from josh wink, osunlade and solomun through to bob marley, airto moreira and seal, as well as continuing to dj week-in week-out at many of the worlds best clubs and festivals.

its been three years since ghosts on tape (a.k.a. ryan merry) last released an ep of his own, and while the san francisco-based producer has remained busy on the remix front, many have likely missed the transformation hes undergone in the interim.

this time einstuerzende neubauten get re-vived by celebrate life with tracks taken from their album >tabula rasa< (1993) and the maxi >interim< (1993).
