the double portrait ep is tobs and lems story of rituals of descent. don t look in the mirrors left and right of you. still, you need yourself. flip the coin from time to time, be tender and never stop. somebody deserves it.

one of the most consistent us production duos since the 90s return to strictly for the third time in a year with one of their mellow, understated vocal grooves. singer tara j keeps it laidback and jazzy while lem and john craft a selection of r n b fuelled vocal mixes, just the instrumental mood ii swing dub providing a deeper flavour with tense beats and electronic touches, while the acoustic, downtempo urban lounge mix is a revisit to their classic live mixes.

eine dringend benötigte veröffentlichung, die in keiner respektablen new beat-sammlung fehlen darf. die zweite und letzte single des zsa zsa laboum-projekts, die ursprünglich 1989 kurz nach dem erfolg von -something scary- veröffentlicht wurde.

repress - the tone always makes the music. but only those who actually make the sound? an ancient-house-avantgarde dream has always been there since the legendary warehouse days of ron hardy, to bring more sounds and tones constantly to an independent, repetitive development. and thus beyond the limits of an executive creative artist on the otherwise purely commercial sense what we call in common beyond imagination. raw footage, the latest album concoction of chicago house legend ron trent (prescription) on his new imprint electric blue works in the best sense of stanislav lem heroes trurl & klapauciusals, cruising like those two metal brains frantically invented by the universe of 4/4-sounds to get insane tracks out of the new material matter located there, and put them together to brand new ones. this trackwerk varies as well as of course between classical chi-town to the context of contemporary, epic house dubs and lives in a perfidious manner from the interaction of various computer modules that constantly spits out new and exciting interactions. in the end, the software sings only as digital output of great analog sounds, which may well be understood as a mocking voice to the majority of contemporary homeboy wackiness format

cinematic vintage synth and live drums project by lance ferguson (the bamboos, menagerie, rare groove spectrum, lanu). turquoise coloured double lp incl. download card, limited to 300 copies worldwide.imagine drummer bernard purdie playing with ryuichi sakamoto, or perhaps clyde stubblefield joining cocteau twins. an immersive album that recalls boards of canada, four tet, air, and tycho.

following on from the critically acclaimed penya investigations cassettes and the 12inch acelere ep, afro-latin-electronic collective penya conclude an intensely creative period with a long player collection of tracks super liminal. liminal an in-between state references the transitional process the four piece band entered during a series of self-produced recording sessions held at penyas multi-instrumentalist magnus pis home studio between march 2016 and may 2017. penyas percussive and futuristic afro-latin sound also owes its genesis to the concept of liminality: the threshold of disorientation occurring during ritual practices. penya s hypnotic groovescapes, led by jim lem s bata drumming,ancient chants, sung by lilli elina, dubbed-out improvisations on trombone by viva msimangand lo-fi electronic production by magnus p.i create a sound that has garnered significant support on bbc 6 music via tom ravenscroft, worldwide fm via gilles peterson, on bbc radio 3s late junction, as well as being praised by a host of producers including dj khalab, will lv, dj jose marquez and dengue dengue dengue. penya s energised and engaging live show has also toured across uk festivals this summer, including brainchild, wilderness, farmfest and big love.

i did not know what achievements, what mockery, even what tortures awaited me. i knew nothing, and i persisted in the faith that the time of cruel miracles was not past. - stanislaw lem (solaris, 1961)
this paragraph from solaris, the novel written in 1961 by stanislav lem, is the starting point for the concept this 30drop album has been built upon. science fiction masters like lem are one of the greatest influences for the artist, who devised this album after the mental challenges that humans should overcome in a future: encounter with beings from other civilizations: capable of interacting with us in a totally unthinkable way so far.

james duncan - producer of a flawless string of ep s for labels such as real soon and his own le systeme imprint, horns man for metro area, morgan geist and lem springsteen (mood ii swing) and currently on trumpet duties for sal principato (liquid liquid) - invites us to join him on a whistle stop tour through some of the subway stations in his neighbourhood for the first in a series of “brooklyn beats”.

lem sees the light in 2012, during an electronic music improvisation night at l’asilo (arts and culture production center in naples, italy). elem started as an audiovisual project based on electronic music improvisation and multimedia arts, created by loredana antonelli (visuals), fabrizio elvetico , emanuele errante and marco messina (electronics). elem is today an interesting novelty in the european electronic music scene that always welcomes new experimental and inspiring projects to give new life to art and music productions.

strictly mood ii swing is a new track collection of music from one of the most influential house music duos of all time. as mood ii swing, production duo lem springsteen and john ciafone will go down in history as one of the most prolific and respected house duos of the last 25 years. at their best, they were simply untouchable, with their drum programming often cited as what set them apart from the rest of the field: always busier and more intricate than straight-up 4/4 house tracks

as mood ii swing, production duo lem springsteen and john ciafone became one of the most in-demand remixers in the late 90s. the duo s production career began modestly, however. after a failed attempt at r&b, the two turned to house music. early productions such as sylvano s * helpless* and wall of sound s *critical* were a step in the right direction, as were releases such as -i need a bitch- for cutting and -searchin - for groove on, but it was the duo s remixes of ultra naté s * free* for strictly rhythm that struck gold. the song became a huge hit and soon mood ii swing was remixing big-name producers like bt (-remember-) and king britt (* the reason*) as well as the next ultra naté single, * found a cure*, which also became a huge hit record around the world. then, as a testament to the duos success, the new york-based nervous have dug up the remixes mood ii swing did for the label during their seminal mid 90s period re mastered and re released on wax for 2016.

more heat from nervous. another seminal ep from one of the greatest house production duo s of all time - mood ii swing aka john ciafone & lem springsteen. this was only their second ep from 1992 and showcases their trademark drum programming and deep 90 s chords. contains 4 mixes including the sought after mood ii swing dub. remastered for 2015 in conjunction with nervous records, nyc.

the second instalment from the bremen based drowned records! this various artists ep sees four blistering tracks covering a broad range of styles - the gritty, beat driven drumteror , a clanging house anti-anthem from lem, soft, pad laden journeys from qnete and a straight techno stomper from tobs! an essential release from this fledging imprint, comes in extremely limited copies, with hand screened sleeves!

john ciafone and lem springsteen are true house legends, under their mood ii swing production moniker the duo have scored an endless succession of club classics, cult hits and underground anthems. since 1992 theyve been at the forefront of the deep house and garage movement emanating from new york citys clubs and streets and they show no sign of quitting anytime soon! the latest, and third sampler of mood ii swing archival tracks is here, and as usual its full of the duos seminal productions, dubs and remixes for nycs finest, king street sounds. tracks featured: the summer swing, inhale, on your knees and driving me crazy

dream states of lust and lucidity, slow to speaks latest reissue of house musics halcyon years comes courtesy of mood ii swings visionary lem springsteen. originally released on the eightball sublabel empire state records in 1994, these excursionary landmarks saw springsteen bid farewell to his usual club-saturated exercises in queeny house euphoria for a hallucinatory breach into a secret realm of desire, where the whispers of a long-forgotten hunger meld with the floating synth-work of a true practitioner of the sacred art of club music. this is the soundtrack to the chill-out room of your unconsciouss kaleidoscopic sex dream, the sweet synth lines of springsteens ritual music still floating in your mind as you awake, alas, a little too soon. fear not: this dyonisian masterpiece is once more available thanks to the good spirits at dope jams, who remind you, *whatever the eye sees and covets, let the hand grasp!* not without asking (or paying) first, of course.

nach dem großen erfolg seiner letzten platte >es lem< (platz 1 der liederbestenliste, preis der deutschen schallplattenkritik) veröffentlicht ernst molden sein zehntes solo-album mit dem titel >a so a scheena dog<. wunderschöne, ausschließlich analog aufgenommene lieder auf vinyl mit beilage-cd, die seine bisherige, ohnehin schon beeindruckende diskografie krönen. ernst molden spielt hier elf neue lieder in ihrer ursprünglichsten form, so wie sie das erste mal im arbeitszimmer gesungen wurden. er verzichtet auf die ernst molden band und zieht sich alleine ins studio von thomas pronai (kantine) zurück, den gesang begleitet er nur mit gitarre und mundharmonika. der temporäre rückzug von der band und von vertrauten arbeitsroutinen erweist sich als glücksgriff.
