following the excellently received dilation lp on film, the duo return to the berlin based imprint for a remix package featuring faltydl, grand optimist, djrum & portable sunsets. erol sarp & lukas vogels ingenious use of the grand piano has won them many plaudits over the years. working solely with the sounds of the grand piano and a set of 20 self-built hammers hitting the piano on different parts - filtered & warped in an extraordinary fashion, the pair craft dense, rousing music - kept fresh & current with nods to idm, ambient & techno. as such, the original recordings are fertile ground for remix opportunities, and the film label call on a whos who of left-field electronica to reimagine the work. nyc native faltydl takes on newtons cradle, flipping the original and turning in a stepping, psychedelic slice of half time proto-footwork while both phillip otterbach, operating under his grand optimist alias, and 2nd drops djrum offer tripping, ambient reinterpretations. 1080p s portable sunsets reimagines key lp cut neon as fuzzy beach house jam, reseting the original & eeking out a wholly different energy with driven drum machine hits & a soothing vox line.

das langerwartete debüt-album der amerikanischen soul und r&b sängerin deva mahal erscheint am 23.03. und wurde von sir elton john bereits als fabelhaft bezeichnet. das verwundert auch nicht so wurde deva ihr enormes talent bereits in die waage gelegt ist doch niemand geringeres als taj mahal ihr vater. deva mahal hat in der vergangenheit bereits mit illustren künstlern wie tv on the radio, sharon jones & the dap kings als auch fat freddy’s drop gearbeitet und ist bei zahlreichen jazz festivals aufgetreten. als erste eigene vÖ erschien ende 2017 die ep “run deep”, die sich ad hoc in der renomierten new york times playlist wiederfand und den startschuss für ihre solo karriere bildete. das album wurde produziert von scott jacoby (vampire weekend, coldplay) und jarett wetherell (beyonce, fka twigs) und bietet einen einzigartigen sound der modernen r&b, pop, soul und gospel verbindet und dabei immer von der überragenden stimme deva mahals getragen wird. der ein oder andere song auf dem album würde auch einer adele gut zu gesicht stehen. die single snakes ist aktuell in der top 100 der deutschen airplay charts mit steigender tendenz!

it’s evident in the stark optimist architecture of daniel libeskind. it’s evident in krakow’s thriving club scene and the country’s bubbling pools of electronic music talent. it’s everything catz n dogz do: their attitude, their music, their labels, their wooded festival and, perhaps most importantly, their friends. not just there to carry you home, friends carry you everywhere. and right here on ‘friends of pets’ catz n dogz are carrying their companions’ creativity with the same esteem and pride they host their polish festival. a cultural statement and powerful showcase of their country’s great thinkers, creators, collaborators and disrupters in electronic music

it’s evident in poland’s thriving creative cultures from the provocative art of katarzyna kozyra to the literature and poetry and films of wojciech kuczok. it’s evident in the stark optimist architecture of daniel libeskind. it’s evident in krakow’s thriving club scene and the country’s bubbling pools of electronic music talent. it’s everything catz n dogz do: their attitude, their music, their labels, their wooded festival and, perhaps most importantly, their friends. not just there to carry you home, friends carry you everywhere. and right here on ‘friends of pets’ catz n dogz are carrying their companions’ creativity with the same esteem and pride they host their polish festival. a cultural statement and powerful showcase of their country’s great thinkers, creators, collaborators and disrupters in electronic music, across 16 tracks

n’toko ist ein experimenteller hip hop-künstler und produzent aus slowenien. seine ersten sporen verdiente er sich als frontmann eines lokalen hip hop-kollektivs namens moveknowledgement. n’toko wurde schnell durch sein technisches können und seine schnelligkeit als rapper bekannt und gewann dadurch sogar zwei nationale freestyle-wettbewerbe hintereinander. neben drei slowenisch-sprachigen alben veröffentlichte er mehrere eps in englischer sprache, von denen zwei auch in japan auf dem markt kamen. diese beiden scheiben haben mittlerweile kultstatus bei underground hip hop-fans und liebhabern alternativer musik erreicht. parallel dazu spielte n’toko ausgiebige touren in europa und den usa, wo er gast auf diversen festivals war (u.a. reeperbahn festival, glastonbury, exit, inmusic, best buy theatre nyc). derzeit engagiert n’toko sich auch politisch in slowenien und hat sich zum viel-gelesenen kolumnist und autor gemausert. auf unique erscheint sein neues album “emirates”, und es vereint kritische texte, straighte beats und düstere, elektronische sounds.

after an acclaimed album on soma and two releases on echocord colour, it s time for italian producer and sound designer roberto clementi to join the kontra-musik family.

the star eyed condition is chameleonic effort in the impossible to pin down trajectory of loden s career. the belgian-based producer and musician has already proven his facility for glassy disco and droning ambient on his 2005 debut valeen hope, and glitchy hip-hop via his work with sole and thirsty fish.
on his new album, koks goes even further beyond his already drawn boundaries. there is a touch of robo-electro to tracks like *optimist never cries* and *sanesserarian* (a play on the phrase *ça ne sert a rien* or *it is useless*). he brings the ghostly sounds of german electronic pop into the dirtiest of hip-hop beats. and on his collaboration with rhymer doseone, *future confetti*, he gets lost in a psychedelic wilderness worthy of dj danger mouse.

rush hour is proud to present a compilation of anthony shake shakirs best work from his own frictional label (and some choice output from 7th city) over the past 15 years. this limited edition 4x12 inch set comes with an exclusive two track 7 inch (only available with this pack). released 2 months in advance of the 3cd/digital formats…
the label shake started brought us some of the deepest, funkiest and most diverse techno of its time and has been surprisingly overlooked by many. after a few years hiatus, shake is now back and will be recording and releasing on frictional again soon.
this compilation includes all of the classics like >arise<, >frictionalized<, >get a feeling<, >my computer is an optimist<, >the floor filler< as well as an unreleased track >the other one<. all tracks have been carefully re-mastered, breathing new life into the original recordings.
