electronic album by samuel rohrer

2019 re-issue, 140g vinyl

dark star safari, a newly formed group featuring samuel rohrer, jan bang, erik honoré and eivind aarset, present its eponymous recording debut, an evocative song-driven album.

max loderbauer, who has so far made consistently engaging contributions to the arjunamusic family, is back to lend his unique interpretive skills to the master recordings for the brightbird album by joão paulo esteves da silva, mário franco and samuel rohrer. loderbauer has set himself up for a challenge, since the original album’s completely improvised flow of small-ensemble, conversational jazz feels complete enough without outside intervention. however, loderbauer’s role as electronics operator in the similarly attuned ambiq trio has already shown that, through his mastery of tone color, he has a talent for teasing out the additional hidden details within an apparently ‘complete’ sonic environment. it’s a task he manages to accomplish without ever overriding or contradicting the cohesive message provided by his collaborators.

rawax joined forces with the great dutch slapfunk label! the result is a fantastic v.a. ep called -slap wax 1- with track by samuel deep, locklead, william caycedo and julian alexander!

another gem from the archives gets a much needed official reissue. the 12inch mix of you combines the original funk riffs, string arrangement and joyous piano with a squelchy lead synth to elevate the track to new levels. anyone who saw that momentous back to back between ge-ology and red greg at dekmantel last summer will know the power of this one. my music on the b side is another favourite from the diggers spiritual soul from samuel jonathan johnson, tip!

head honcho samuel deep returns to slapfunk with a solo ep after almost five years. three own tracks and one ingi visions (julian alexander & samuel deep) collab. all high energy club orientated bombs to destroy the dance floor!

the second ep of samuel rohrer’s range of regularity album presents two more striking reinterprations. burnt friedman’s own dramatic interpre-tation of “microcosmoism” pairs up his consciousness of deep bass and analog inventiveness with rohrer’s continually transforming sound ob-jects, making for a flowing and wordless narrative that simply dares listen-ers to stop paying attention. feeling more like a collaboration in “real time” than a remix proper, friedman brings his characteristic ‘mad scientist’ wit to the proceedings and delivers an energetic piece that simply glows in the dark.

to make it true and organic was the main purpose when german producer filou started his work for nova 118 ep. both original tracks, radon and scandium represent the path of techno with house influences. the tracks are rich in details and short fills which makes this a truly outstanding record. as this isn’t enough filou presents two versions of -radon- and -scandium- demonstrating where techno and house can take you. as the original concentrates on a percussive rhythm, samuel l. session’s version is arranged more classically -- a deep chord, a clear beat, accentuated hi-hats and claps. the -justin berkovi remix- carefully-placed sounds building the track into a dynamic and hypnotic whole. the percussiveness here is more profound, shaping the track in a completely different way. already massive plays by a bunch of dj-s incl. villalobos.

official reissue handled by strictly groove for the new italian imprint erezioni. erezioni is a sub-label of omaggio dedicated to italian disco music.
“i like sado music” is a gem released by blitz records in 1980 among other overlooked records of electronic disco, library music and soundtracks. “i like sado music” is also the only record ever sung by sandy samuel, the artist name of daniela samueli a prolific and very famous porn actress of that period.

the second ep of samuel rohrer’s range of regularity album presents two more striking reinterprations. these new remixes provide an intriguing parallax view of the original tracks, using the percussive eclecticism of the parent lp as a starting point from which to journey into sonically vibrant, feature-rich territories. the production specialists on hand for this project include burnt friedman and ricardo villalobos. villalobos, has already formed a strong working relationship with rohrer’s ambiq trio, lends his talents to both of the eps. (ror remixes i - amel-ep716). nonplace label boss friedman, as well, has carved out a unique space for himself within the electronic world, logging several decades’ worth of releases that with dub-wise production sensibility, skewed humor, and riots of tone color. though each individual remix has its own character, they are all united in their ability to provide a quick cure for fatigue with the common “loop”: though not improvised, they are strung together from fleeting phrases that evolve as if they are taking on a life independent of their creators. burnt friedman’s own dramatic interpretation of “microcosmoism” pairs up his consciousness of deep bass and analog inventiveness with rohrer’s continually transforming sound objects, making for a flowing and wordless narrative that simply dares listeners to stop paying attention. feeling more like a collaboration in “real time” than a remix proper, friedman brings his characteristic ‘mad scientist’ wit to the proceedings and delivers an energetic piece that simply glows in the dark. this is complemented nicely by villalobos’ remix of “microcosmoism”. it carries the energy level of the 1st ep over to a new disk, while heavily experimenting with feelings of emotional ambiguity. at some points aggressive and at other points merely curious, this mischievous collage of attitudes feels as inspired by the questing jazz of sun ra as it is by continental techno. contemplative keyboard runs, enthusiastic spring-like percussion and malfunctioning machine chatter all coalesce to make this a most fascinating piece of multi-purpose electronic music.

telharmonic texture launches its first factory product on the market and as the first artist we talk about jeff samuel, a historian of micro house with dubious ep creates the new path of this unique vinyl label. four minimal melodic tracks and purely old school sound. release estimated for the summer! vinyl only!

coming hot on the heels of samuel rohrer’s range of regularity album are two eps of striking reinterpretations. these new remixes provide an intriguing parallax view of the original tracks, using the percussive eclecticism of the parent lp as a starting point from which to journey into sonically vibrant, feature rich territories. the production specialists on the first ep include ricardo villalobos and vilod, the collaborative duo with max loderbauer. villalobos, has already formed a strong working relationship with rohrer’s am- biq trio, lends his talents to both of these new eps.

samuel rohrer, the multi-faceted, forward-thinking percussio- nist and producer behind the arjunamusic label, the ambiq trio and a wealth of other musical projects, has set out on his own with a new full-length solo album range of regularity as a double ep set with a deceptive title if ever there was one: the sonic experience of this record is, in fact, a highly irregular one (and a highly welcome one at that). constructed almost entirely upon electronically-treated recordings of acoustic in- strumentation, with a bare minimum of synthesizer voicing, ror vibrates with a compelling organicism as if old-growth black forest trees had conspired together to make an album of ultra-modern improvisational music. indeed, the record feels limned with contributions from some other intelligence, despite being a clear extension of the fluid, percussion-driven musical technique that rohrer has exhibited in previous years.

limited edition hand stamped 12 vinyl - some say techno s 4/4 owes its powerful majesty to our human heartbeat and its constant, uninterrupted pulse. - some say the most magnificent and memorable dark skies on earth can be seen in sweden, known as the northern lights: they may vary its shape, colour and intensity through time, but its presence in our imaginary stays untouched and seems always ready to captivate us again.as true techno lovers, our vinyl only constellation welcomes swedish legendary artist samuel l. session: in rc we ve always referred to samuel s figure as the aurora borealis of techno: timeless, always evolving and majestic. in the dark plays 3 engaging, pushing and beat leading tracks: our most reliable 4/4 beat reference for those who enjoy getting lost dancing in the dark but don t want to lose the north.

the wait is over! sound programming wizard and groove master, jeff samuel comes storming in with three new jams. the return was signaled by his recent appearance on our refraction vol. 2 record. nevermore is dubby, melodic and pulls at the heart strings. perfect sunrise soundtrack. both tunes on the b side feature that quirky funk that sets jeff apart from the pack. welcome back sir! our dancefloors missed you

liam blackburn’s transformative night of visions lp as ancestral voices forged a bold new sonic identity for an influential figure on the electronic music scene. from his groundbreaking work as indigo and onto the success of akkord’s hybrid electronic melting pot (with synkro), the quest for forward movement is intrinsic to everything liam produces. to further celebrate the night of visions lp release, we asked some of our favourite producers to reconstruct some of night of visions highlights in their own style.

jonas saalbach & samuel fach present their -vital signs- as the third vinyl release by auditive. this track literally drags you into a beautiful outstanding soundscape. driving on one hand and deep on the other hand, -vital signs- definitely invites to swing a leg. a so called -banger- comes from the british producer and dj third son, with a top-notch hypnotic and straight remix. to round up this wonderful ep, mira & chris schwarzwalder enchant you with their very individual interpretation of the original and put some extra magic on top.

ltd summer 2016 deal.. its a really clever go lucky move that the never resting glückskind founders michael klang and jürgen kirsch got samuel knob on board. the valencia-based producer really knows how twist those knobs to come up with the craziest noises. his skills, honed during his residency times at barraca music and narita club, are perfectly put into use with this crafty release that should have people dancing on the roof tops--naked. samuel, a drummer who jumpstarted his musical career at the age of sixteen in a pop-rock band, is exploring the outer realms of percussive beats, incorporated in a tight yet not at all minimal sounding house construct. inspired by his father who is also a drummer and programmer, he does not hesitate to foray into unknown dimensions, making this eleventh glückskind release a very special piece of black gold

i’ll be honest, i had forgotten about samuel jonathan johnson until i heard theo parrish play it recently. i used to spin the lp years ago but my copy got lost or beat. soon as i heard it i made a call and sorted out the 45, just an amazing solid groove on sweet love, you cant help but feel it. the flip reasons, is the other great track from the same columbia lp my music. first time on 45 for both of these, once they are gone that is it. disco essential!
