lay-far returns to gamm with three slices of jazzy disco numbers that got joyful dancing written all over them. he s carefully selected his fave disco, jazz-funk and fusion tracks from herbie mann (etagui), fsb (morning) and mass production (cosmic lust) that were just asking for that special moscow edit touch. gentle perfection!

alexander lay-far, one of the most prolific and in demand music producers in russia, is about to release his long-awaited 3rd studio album war is over! deeply personal, honest, emotional and uncompromising album boasts the exciting collaborations with the likes of stee downes, jesse futerman, pete simpson, riddim research lab, phil gerus, andy compton and recloose. after a slew of successful releases on the ever so great local talk, leng records, g.a.m.m., razor n tape, bbe among handful other labels, lay-far is releasing a 100% diy product on his own imprint in-beat-ween music.

two of russian electronic music’s rising stars, phil gerus and alexander lay-far, invite you to join them at the solitary high social club. while table service is provided, they’d much rather you throw caution to the wind and head to the dancefloor.
before joining forces in the studio, both moscow-based musicians have delivered a string of memorable solo productions. lay-far has previously released a wealth of material on such labels as local talk, city fly, lazy days and 4lux black, while synthesizer fetishist gerus has showcased his electrofunk and disco-fired cuts on futureboogie recordings, sonar kollektiv, public release and superior elevation records.
the five tracks that make up solitary high social club deliver a perfect marriage of the two producers’ distinctive solo styles, combining the rich musicality of lay-far’s house productions with the spacey, intergalactic electronics of gerus’s discoid adventures. in many ways, it’s a marriage made in heaven – or in lay-far’s celebrated in-beat-ween studio, at least.

this is the second single taken from the forthcoming 3rd album by lay-far on his own label in-beat-ween music!

the first single taken from the forthcoming 3rd album by lay-far! never good enough for you is a deeply intimate and emotionally charged love message, written in collaboration with the acclaimed singer and songwriter stee downes. rough and edgy but equally soulful beat, showcasing heavy influences from hip-hop, broken beat and house, forms a perfect foundation for the heart-felt story of emotional struggle and break-up, delivered by stee downes! autobiographical song for both the songwriter and the producer. the single comes packaged with an instrumental version and a remix. the latter is a slightly more straightforward and politically-correct vision of the song, also produced by lay-far, using roland tr-707 drum machine instead of the gritty chopped drum breaks of the original. last but not least comes the bonus track -blow my mind bottom-heavy banger on the edge of funky breakbeats, bruk and classic electro a 2018 modern fusion ode to b-boying and breaking boundaries! watch out for the second single and the full-length album war is over, coming out later this year!

version galore is a newly found label, deeply rooted into the music culture. we bring you the selected reworks / versions from the top producers in the game, showing lots of respect and care for the original, but elevating it s spirit and taking it somewhere else. it s all about the dialogue of cultures and the idealistic desire to pass the music legacy on! no half-measures, played-out tunes, lazy cuts, or boring “808-kick boosting- biz! on the second release of the label we are delighted to present you something special from the heart of russia - handcrafted re-edits by the moscow-based groove expert lay-far of basic fingers, gamm & bbe fame

mr scruff & ge-ology remixes
manchester s very own mr scruff and nyc crate digger ge-ology remix moscow s lay-far! now that s what we call a truly international release. it s kind of a dream release for us at local talk as both scruff and ge-ology have been on our we wanna get them on local talk plastic list for quite some time. starting off we find scruff going for a slight disco(ish) rub where analogue synths bumps around with a dark but musical basement feel...but still jazzy! on the flip our man ge-ology who is riding high on the hype from his release on theo parrish s sound signature label goes on a deep and spaced out electronic house venture that is so edgy it hurts. its that good good shit basically...enjoy!

lay-far returns with the second part of his album * how i communicate*.
part 1 had an impressive cast of collaborators and showcased his love for the whole spectrum of dance music and why change a winning concept ? part 2 is crammed full of musically expansive, organic dancefloor treats, songs that really hit the spot.
or as lay-far describes it himself * the album is about music as the universal language, the ultimate means of communication, bringing people of the world together.*

releasing an album is a daunting task, especially in dance music. you got to keep it fresh and exciting from the very beginning until the last track, not sticking to one tempo, make tracks that work both at home and in the club and ultimately tell a story with your music. alexander lay-far knows a thing or two about this, having his debut album so many ways out back in 2013. the thing with lay-far and a big reason why we ve always had a soft spot for him is his way of incorporating a certain magic in the tracks that leaves you on an uplifting and optimistic note. therefore we re really excited to release his second album, how i communicate, on local talk. how i communicate is a two part vinyl release which we hope will come as a fresh breeze in these days where so much dance music simply lacks the actual musical aspect or the organic approach. like most producers and djs that are influenced by soul, disco, jazz and the blacker side of electronic dance music its all about the actual tune . listening (or dancing) through this album we hope you ll find your special tune (or tunes!) that hopefully will bring joy to your ears. to his aid lay-far has invited an impressive cast of collaborators such as ashley beedle & darren morris, restless soul, sean mccabe & mark de clive-lowe to give the tracks that little extra something under the watchful eye of lay-far himself. or as lay-far describes it himself the album is about the music as the universal language, the ultimate means of communication, bringing people of the world together. part 2 will be released in the new year...

ever since the debut, communication ep which also marked our 50th release, alexander lay-far has a special place in the local talk family.

sound of speed has truly become a household for underground house music, with artists like aybee, cottam and jimpster. this time its a four-track ep by lay far.

in the third (and last) part of so many ways remixed series we have yet another special set of heavyweights, delivering their own reinterpretations of lay-far original album tracks. please welcome kaytronik, d-malice, phil asher and red rack em!

our moscow b-boy, vinyl freak and outstanding dj lay-far is back with his second ep of secret weapons on basic fingers. secret weapons vol.2 has something for everyone, covering a vast variation of styles ranging from disco (groove), soul-fusion (bolinas), jazz-funk (bouncy lady) and dub (south african crossfire). all very tasty and dj friendly but most important they re all touched by the magic fingers from lay-far.

in-beat-ween music continue their programme of remixes from lay fars much loved debut album so many ways with a second 12inch featuring the high profile talents of ashley beedle, peter oakden & craig smith, tommy rawson and aroop roy

lay-far s critically acclaimed debut album -so many ways- which took him worldwide gets a friendly treatment from the global music family! in the first installment of the remix series we have artistic versions from atjazz, inkswel, jonny miller and thatmanmonkz! martin iveson kicks off the ep with a masterpiece of a remix for one of the highlights of the album - electronic ballad -stand up- featuring pete simpson. when the strings come in you realize - it s atjazz at his best - conscious boogie for the soul! we believe it may easily become future classics! inkswel s version of -when i m seeing you- is soaked in the warm sound of distorted drum machines and tape delays. be warned - this heavy-hitter can actually damage your speakers! the b-side opens with the deep and sophisticated afro house of jonny miller whose remix of -summer vacation- immediately teleports you to the open air party in the adriatic sea coast. last but not the least we have sheffield s own thatmanmonkz revisiting -that dream-. inspired heavily by classic blaxploitation movies, shadeleaf music label boss comes up with a dynamic soundtrack for the imaginary chase scene. badass!

exclusive import. japanese imprint sound of speed first release of 2015, with lay-far and peter oakden collaborating for the second time.

on *secret weapons* lay-far presents three tracks that celebrate an era of when disco, jazz, afro and rare groove ruled the dance floors. first up is *quality hours* which to us is the perfect nugget for the early afternoon, mid-day session or late night summer parties. on the flip is *saaba dub*, the sort of light and loose disco-soul groove influenced by dub and last but not least *prime climate* ends things in a slightly more rare groove-ish way.

we are celebrating 50 release on local talk and what better way to do it than welcome alexander lay-far, the moscow-based dj and producer to the family.

last year city fly unearthed a raw diamond in the form of russias alexander lay-far aka lay-far with his perfect world track being the choice cut on city flys visions volume 2 ep - its dream-like harmony, yearning female tones and warm bass culminating in a transcendent production.
