primrose comes from a live/band background which translates within the original tracks, but still manages to maintain a unique dance floor functionality across the ep.

the 1954 los angeles concert from duke ellington on vinyl.

the next collaborative release between freeride millenium and pauls musique is a terrific two-tracker from manchester artist joseph louis harland manning under his new alias los angeles with the 7? vinyl release artwork designed by daniel rajcsanyi as part of his ‘baby exhibition in austria. joseph louis harland manning was the drummer of the band wu lyf and is involved in projects like los porcos, the mancunian boyband menage a trois and dream lovers. under his other aliases he released on aficionado, cracki, ocean records and is it balearic? sub label u?ber as well as having made music videos for molly nilsson. here he is fine form across a pair of delicate and moving synth tracks. opener ‘lamour is a gentle cut that starts with celestial chords and wide-open expanses of synth before a buried deep groove slowly comes to the fore. breathy vocals also add to the loved-up, dreamy feel and the whole thing carries you away in a majestic reverie that shifts from ambience to new age house. the track features the artists own field recordings from the streets of berlin, twisting up sounds from the sidewalk into percussive notes that give an organic feel. the perfectly soothing second offering is ‘i wanna go to heaven is a gorgeous synth piece that suspends you in a crystal clear blue sky on a warm summers day. chords are smeared and stretched whilst angelic, wordless vocals drift by. it is the sound of a blissful passage to the afterlife and will leave you feeling cleansed.

lefto (belgium) and free the robots (california) found themselves on tour together a year and a half ago and had the wise idea to do a record together with the beats they were making from inspiration collected along the way. fast forward to the present, and that idea has grown into karavan - an album of international exotic melodies and heavy rhythms - that reflects the sound gather through their years of consistent nomadic touring.

gourmet beats 007 is the los angeles ep featuring introspekt, mesck, oxossi, and subtle mind. the idea behind the ep was to bring together some of the hot talent emerging out of the la bass music scene.

adult contemporary have always focused on meticulous production and manufacturing throughout the catalog history. this time no different in that regard, but the approach seems to have crossed over to the visual aspect of their ninth release, a glorious offering introducing artist invisibleland, as well as, a dazzling cover illustration synchronizing the entire package. the headlining lead track is astonishing itself. -six months of no rain- is a way of life in l.a. come every september which is when this multi-dimensional masterpiece lands.

music is about discourse: it’s about ideas, about the intellectual project. anyone can build a “beat”, but not everybody can produce an interesting argument for it. this implies the idea of romanticism as a notion of tradition and respect for certain rules. romanticism understood as virtuosity in the manipulation of art production tools. virtuosi of their own methodology. certain pedigree of virtuosity is definitely needed…but in many regards it also remains an extremely conventional formalism, which is at the core of every artist. it doesn’t matter if you have to piss around in the subterranean electronic music trenches for over two decades. a true pioneer simply has to live with that sort of dichotomy. here there are two good examples.

zzt continue their reign of underground club domination with their most overt anthem yet. this is the lead single off zzts debut album, partys over earth!

one of the top albums of 2008 repressed! includes download code.

on the 9th and before last of the 10 inch series of all city coleman and ta raach drop 10 hip hop grooves.

serge santiago returns to his own arcobaleno label with two hot new edits… in serges own words…
a. serenissma: >i ve heard a couple of mixes of the original that i really liked but felt i could never play them out, it needed a bit more of an edge so i set about doing this version, really hope like it now it finally on vinyl<
b. magical body: >as nearly all italo records go, the original had a chord change that i just couldnt deal with, i took this out, eqd the bass, beefed the kick a touch and re-played the top line, it doesnt sound too bad to tell you the truth<.

amazing italo disco anthem! very obscure early italo release previously released on the cult label il discotto (comes as extended instrumental and vocal version). beside the fact this goes for top prices on ebay and has been supported by all the freaks of the industry... this is just a magical piece of music. another essential clone classic cut
