2020 repress - ruff cherry debuts on midgar with the retro-futuristic “ritual ep” delivering four spaced out cuts costantly spanning between dub, sci-fi ambient and deep techno. the first track ritual is a dubbed out concoction of african drums, solemn atmospheres and bleeping circuits of a meditative machine. the a side closes with the broken beat planet outlaw, a super chilled-out groove meets entrancing heavenly pads. mysterians on the flipside opens with a short intro before an eerie high pitched drum breaks in, embracing uplifting soundscapes and suddenly crossed by flying transistors. the last track on the vinyl is the deep and tribal endless world (future mix) bringin sounds from celebratory steps around the fire.

after a few years on hiatus, one electronica has gone all out in with a heavy debut 4 tracker from new member thought camera. the young belfast born producer who has been very busy in the studio putting together an arsenal of electronic weapons has also enjoyed an increase in popularity and profile in the local scene due to his hard work and commitment to the cause. with such a strong release about to drop in the next few weeks and with more unreleased material on its way this guy is worth keeping an eye on as a rising talent. without using too many bullshit analogies – this is release is simply dancefloor bliss and a djs dream that will be keep at the front of a record box for years to come and could be a favourite among various styles. the title track astral pilot comes in strong with spatial glitchy electronic chatter and tubular echoes that are pretty damn haunting. headspace comes in on a2 which is the antithesis of serenity and meditation that the name suggests. this acidic jack track is upbeat and laden with bass bleeding all over the place. flip it over and you have lifeforms on the b1 which is the most technical track on the release which ebbs and flows between solemn and sombre leaving you emotionally twisted yet intrigued this is one to look out for! obsession which aptly depicts this track a stalker in the night, haunting, imposing, friday 13th shit. not for the faint hearted.

sev dah and his label proletarijat. rom the near intimidating gravity of strah to the dystopian fight music of zastava m48, via the solemn yet commanding hymn for fallen comrades in tovaris, sev dah manages to create somethingthat is as personal as it is universal. techno with a firm standpoint and loads of force to back it up.

desiderii marginis long out of print debut album from 1997 “songs over ruins” is given a proper re-issue, carefully remastered by johan levin himself and with new artworks as cd and limited edition lp. a landmark in the genre, with it’s desolate, minimalistic and grief stricken odes to religious and spiritual burdens. a foray through abandoned ruins and a reflection on the passing of time and the impermanence of all things physical. outstanding in quality and production skills, this mesmerizing and foreboding journey is at times tranquil and melodic and also dives into more martial like percussive elements and industrial atmospheres. classics like these definitely need to be discovered still and also rediscovered, and it’s with great pleasure that we make it available once again.

conceived on a dark winters night, ‘we can only’ tells a sombre story of lust and heartache. the heavy kick and bassline beckon, leading to hypnotic guitars and sultry strings. euphoria ensues, questions are left unanswered, until a sweet female responds.
harry s second production, ‘love flow’, came together in a summer of romance. blissful horns and a sensual vocal carry us into a breakdown fit for a bahamian honeymoon. this one is for bringing people together and sharing love.
an edit from the shadow city boys flips harry’s ‘love flow’ on its head. the ‘only lover’s edit’ is a hazy excursion reminiscent of times gone by. plodding along like a 6am slog home. this solemn end brings us full circle, a record that meanders mesmerisingly from one mood to the next… the first of many.

after mathematics, bio rhythm and la beauté du négatif, american artist deviere is back on parisian label unlearn. lobster theremin artist and unlearn affiliate royer is on remix duty. water drums (a1), a deep and spacey cut reminds a joey-anderson-esque imagery for a moody and introspective club experience. strong yet subtle in the low end, this one is for the big sound systems. royer’s demi-monde remix comes up as a more housy interpretation, mixing dubby inspirations with lo-fi aesthetics. reminiscent of kyle hall’s early works on moods and grooves, rising (b1) is an upfront dancefloor track suited for peak time euphoria. speak into existence (b2) is probably the most accessible track of the ep, oscillating between acid-yet-warm feelings and solemn preacher-preachin’ vibes.

midgar welcomes the bordeaux based von grall delivering four dense, immersive cuts. first of the list, *a secant line*, is an acidic and powerful mantra, opening the gates of sonic virtuality. in the second track, *the slope*, fast paced rhythmics and cold ambiances bring some severity to the record. on the bside, the melodic and slightly dreamy excursion *apply the definition*, while *limit value* close the record with a solemn concoction of offbeats drums and mechanic nightbirds.

the 6th studio album from band of horses as 12 inch vinyl with download code included.

ashworth concentrates on the essence of solid techno in his first full ep for made of concrete. inspired by the main component of concrete itself, the material is intitled ‘portland’ and consists of no less than four original tracks. “world” makes for a gentle introduction by opening with a soft melodic lead, swiftly changing the tempo after a few measures. we’re quickly immersed in a syncopated bassline peppered with whirring synths that harmonise with full scale piano cuts, the most intriguing earworm on the entire cut. on “launch” the producer lays down hard hitting techno drums from the get-go, setting the foundation for a tense atmosphere. ashworth’s signature move quickly ensues, as he manages to inject emotion through synths and piano pads into an otherwise tense and anxiety-ridden ambiance. toning down the graveness of the previous tracks’ mood, ”mineral” reveals a surrendering groove, with a stripped down, minimalist approach, where the melody is assembled with the help of industrial elements, emotive bleeps and electric glitches. ashworth’s experimental edge is evident in the final track “scatter” - the sub bass lead creates a morose atmosphere paired with low-key synths and mechanical loops. while the first two tracks showcase ashworth’s ability to instill life into solemn techno soundscapes, the second half of the ep successfully exhibits his edgy experimental side, adding up to a heterogenous release.

our friend carli löf – true musical genius, master producer of everything from rugged & raw grime scorchers to straight up eurovision goodness – finally debuts on barnhus, with nothing less than a timeless, laser-soaked rave hymn. on the flip we have our very own pedrodollar nordkvist flexin some serious remix muscle with your choice of contemplative comedown house and/or solemn ode to ancient trance gods.

weve been meaning to put out some music by our friend harald ever since we started this wee operation five years ago. imagine our joy now that were ready to release not one, but two masterful records signed mr. björk! solemn chord improvisations recorded in the secret gardens of nacka pair up with a shameless yet humble cover version of a techno evergreen on this perfect little vinyl exclusive record, beautifully designed by malin gabriella nordin. this 7inch single is released synchronously with the 12inch fritids ep

two paris legends reunite for the latest outing on the always fresh adult only label. owner chris carrier links up with his old pal dan ghenacia for this three-track ep, which includes a remix from german talent, diego krause. chris and dan last got together for adult only back in 2007, with their ‘tumble blur’ ep and they recently hit the studio together again to roll out two super dope slices of heads-down dance floor funk. as you might expect from two highly experienced veterans, the tracks on offer are both crisp, epitomising that classic house flow with a sprinkling of contemporary flavour. the 2nd degree bounces, whirrs and chirps all over the place while the 4x4 beat keeps the energy levels high. just a sin is a more serious cut, with a solemn presence and stuttered beats together with a hushed vocals giving it a mysterious feel. unison wax bossman diego krause powers up just a sin with his remix, putting a firm emphasis on the bassline, which is strong, murky and unrelenting. a deep, dark slice of groovy house for the after-hours crew

chelsea hotel records come back with the second release from romanian artist called alex kravitz. mr. blacklash a-side is a solid trip into the new melodyc techno atmospheres. wrecck b-side is composed by a very strong techno tool, in which solemn rhodes try to create suspence on the dancefloor. enjoy this amazing 180 gramm vinyl with full cover print and shrink wrapped sleeve.

ltd. 250 copies worldwide. percussion, cello, guitars and analogue hardware lead to a sonic result situated at the crossroads of ritual drums, dubby reverberating echoes and disintegrating orchestras.

swayzak!! after a long, long break the real swayzak sound is back on 3rd wave music with a holy masterpiece and lesson in deep and dubby techno music. everyones sound of todays bub or deep vibes is called >sounds like swayzak< but this one is swayzak. raw, floating and never ending adventures of pure andvbeautiful electronic soundscapes and feelings combined with a straight groove. this release has a unique inside out cut! means the needle runs from the inner side of the vinyl to the outer side! 2 tunes with almost 20 minutes playtime on 180 gramm vinyl. all songs are written and produced by david brown. shrink-wraped. rare!

the man they called brokof was a blazing star in one familys dark history. a player with a wandering heart. the band called brokof follows him into the vastness and gives it a face. they draft a map with songs. singing with beautiful solemn sadness about encounters and fleeting moments of truth. hinting at rage born from the loss that occurs when one moves in life. about what one has to gain when there is nothing expected. when hope has turned to echoes and dust.
these are pop songs purged and reduced to the core.every sound stands alone to serve the song. there are no tricks. through their naked vulnerability they find their power. the structure is stark and the messages clear.

above machine is a record label run by steve lee (the project club). seconds is the alter ego of markus enochson and luciano leiva. together with singer linus lutthi they deliver >another day< which is a breezy, balearic affair with the solemn moodiness of nick drake. it is reminiscent of late end-of-summer days when time seems to stand still, but in the most bittersweet of ways. remixes are provided by lexx - who once again adds that subtle disco blend whilst drinking an estrella at the beach bar. the seahawks dive deep and provide an ambient masterpiece, which lures you deeper into their crazy world of delays, reverb and a studer a80 running backwards in a shoreditch broom cupboard.

limited edition 10 inch release !! <br< in the dead of winter, i visited nico in his apartment in providence, rhode island. he had just finished composing >dont break my love<, the a-side of his new ep and his first song since space is only noise. he seemed solemn, but i didnt ask why. the next night, i witnessed a rare occurrence: nico dj-ed a small party. we danced all night in a brick-walled loft as snow fell outside...

support from: surgeon, ben sims, luke slater, deetron, len faki, efdemin, technasia, mike dehnert, cio d or, ryan elliot, arne weinberg, vince watson, dan curtin, marcel hesse, franco cangelli, philip sherburne, perc, forward strategy group, matt o brien, the parallel. with a string of eps on prologue, mote evolver and komisch , samulis hypnotic tracks are seducing dance floors and djs alike. >kosmos< is samulis biggest track to date, with blasts of dry ice percussion and thumping, heavy beats underpinning a solemn voice intoning the tracks title. eerie sounds take >kosmos< to the outer limits, but kemppi keeps it rooted on the floor with a resonating bassline. >massa< meanwhile, is a raw warehouse number, its gained bassline and crashing cymbals playing host to an evil acid line that threatens to spiral out of control. peter van hoesen dissects and reconstructs >massa< using an intricate, stop-start arrangement and lithe, stop-start rhythms dipping and building until a heavy kick drops four minutes in. meanwhile >suunta< sees samuli back where he started, a heavy sub-bass and skipping percussion married with eerie vocals and atmospheric sound scapes. from his mind to ours. this is samuli kemppi at his best.

peter kruder is one of those emblematic names that lead a whole decade and inspire myriads of djs, producers and clubbers all over the world. while he enjoys unprecedented success with kruder & dorfmeister and crossed into the platinum range (selling 1 million copies of the k&d sessions album), he never lost track of the underground. probably his stellar career would never have happened exactly this way if there wasn’t the other kruder: the adventurous dj, the deep producer, the challenging a&r at g-stone, the producer behind dj hell’s highly acclaimed “teufelswerk” album. in 15 years peter kruder has done only 3 singles under his own name though. when you get your ears around “chordal” and “law of return” it becomes totally clear why this rare outing happens on macro. kruder meets his macro debut full on modernism - showcasing his deep, dark, dancefloor grounded side. with a crisp harmonic sequence reminiscent of tchaikovsky’s nutcracker suite, “chordal” hijacks brains on the dancefloor with its vacuum depth and sizzling details. “law of return” on the other side is a kruder signature take on deepness - solemn chords wrapped around a hypnotic groove give you tears of joy. a masterpiece!

poker flat owner and visionary dj & producer steve bug recently celebrated the 10th anniversary and 100th release for the label. continuing this buzz, and as always, confirming his rightful place at the top, steve is now gearing up to release his fourth full artist album. the >two of a kind< ep is a teaser of things to come as the long player drops in a few months time, and what a teaser it is…! once again joining forces with long-time compadre clé, of märtini brös fame, the pair whip up a deep storm, resulting in the solemn midnight swagger of month of sip. cool, metallic pads and trademark tight drums lay the groundwork for a momentous twisted synth line to wrap its way around the senses. full of tension, drama and stone-cold style, its a track that will define the nights - or indeed the mornings - dancefloor adventures. working solo on the b-side, and in-all-outclassic bug mode, steve builds perhaps his most drifting, euphoric vision of modern house music to date. beautiful, phasing synth stabs open this epic-vibed slow burner whose refined elements stay pure and true throughout. if youre searching for dynamic, addictive underground house music, full of history and yet remarkably modern, look no further

techno for whirrled peas, simple and serious message, is in perfect harmony with the solemn butane s music but also with the records artwork, the wheel on the a side is a symbol of peace. this new record is simply >bewitching<, it should rock the crowd with his exhilarating rhythms, hypnotic basslines and disturbing atmospheres, sometimes reminiscent of minus. the a side >world peace< is an overpowering dancefloor anthem, while on the b side >black rob s acid< and >working title< add a deeper vibe to make this a more than solid 12inch. butane therefore enriches the roman,photo family with his emotional techno… already support from luciano (cadenza), troy pierce (minus rec)...

ambient / drone

the rastafarian roots reggae singer brings a majestic touch to the songs he sings, which are deeply infused with his beliefs. with a sense of reverence that only a solemn, pious man as prince alla could put into song, this collection centres on tracks recorded at lee perry-s black ark studio. having spent his early days living in rasta camps & working as a singer for joe gibbs, it was at greenwich farm that prince alla (born keith blake) crossed paths with tapper zukie who was so blown away by alla-s songs he initiated the recording sessions. this release compiles those songs & their extended versions alongside 3 classic extra cuts, -hail rastafari-, -black roses- & the sublime -royal throne room-.
