“I’ve spent many nights wasted but not wasted any nights in fabric over the years. The dedication to underground music and innovation, the way the bodysonic bass transducers sent the sounds through your body via your feet, the queues, the camaraderie and a real sense of being part of something that people will remember through the haze as the home of some of the greatest moments of their lives. When I was asked to do a mix for the anniversary series I couldn’t wait to get on with it. fabric has become one of the homes of bass music and that’s some of the music I’ve been playing out the most. It’s a pleasure to follow in the footsteps of so many incredible DJ’s in the fabric, FABRICLIVE and fabric presents series and be part of their celebration. Here’s to many more decades of hedonism.” - Mike Skinner

Los York's became the epitome of Peruvian garage sound. Two of the best and wildest songs contained on their last LP had never appeared on a single despite their enormous potential for the dance floor and the interest they aroused among DJs since their rediscovery in the 60s scene. Set the dance floor on fire with the first time 45 issue of this Latin garage double-sider. DESCRIPTION After two successful albums on MAG, supported by a handful of singles, the Peruvian garage beat band Los York's culminated their disagreements with their label by leaving it in 1969 and signing a new contract with Virrey. Along the way there was an album to finish for which they had already recorded a good part of the instrumental tracks. "Los York's 69" finally saw the light of day on MAG but, to the surprise of its fans, the voice of its charismatic singer, Pablo Luna, had been replaced by that of the no less iconic Pablo Branda, also known as Melcochita. The all-round artist, trained in the studios of MAG as a skilled percussionist, guitarist and sonero, proved himself to also sing and shout with the same energy and attitude as the brilliant Pablo Luna. On top of that, it is rumored that it was another MAG artists, Los Teddy's, who actually completed the instrumental tracks for some cuts on the album, something that seems consistent with the much more energetic and surfy style of songs like 'El Sicodélico'. Two of the best and wildest songs contained on their last LP had never appeared on a single despite their enormous potential for the dance floor and the interest they aroused among DJs since their rediscovery in the 60s scene. Set the dance floor on fire with the first time 45 issue of this Latin garage double-sider: 'El Sicodélico' and 'El Loco'.

Emilíana Torrini erwacht aus der Pause mit einem brandneuen Album, MISS FLOWER. Es ist die Rückkehr zu einer illustren Karriere, die Chartstürmer wie "Sunny Road" und "Jungle Drum" von gefeierten Alben wie "Fisherman's Woman", "Me And Armini" und "Tookah" sowie ikonische Soundtracks wie "Der Herr der Ringe: Die zwei Türme" umfasst. Emilíana hat mit ihrem vielseitigen Stil aus Folk-, Pop- und elektronischen Einflüssen eine Grammy®-Nominierung, Ivor Novello- und isländische Musikpreise erhalten und eine Generation unauslöschlich geprägt. Ihr neuestes Werk, MISS FLOWER, verspricht, mit ihrem unnachahmlichen Gesang und innovativen Kompositionen das Publikum erneut zu fesseln.
Inspiriert von einer Kiste mit Briefen, die sie an die Mutter ihrer Freundin Zoe – Geraldine Flower – schrieb, begibt sich Emilíana Torrini mit ihrem neuen Album auf eine zutiefst persönliche Reise. Diese Geschichten lösten Torrinis kreative Vision aus und hauchten der fesselnden Erzählung, die sich durch MISS FLOWER zieht, Leben ein. Verspielt und frei, experimentell und erwachsen taucht Emilíana Torrini in verschiedenste Welten ein, lebt in den einzelnen Songs grosse Liebesgeschichten, kleine Dramen und intensivstes Leben. Und baut damit nicht nur der unnachahmlichen Geraldine Flower ein Denkmal, sondern auch weiblicher Selbstbestimmung und Unabhängigkeit.
Brandneues Studioalbum des früheren Thin Lizzy-Gitarristen, der auch oft im Hintergrund bei Pink Floyd ('The Wall'-Tour) und später Roger Waters agierte.
Snowy White hat seinen ganz eigenen, 'englischen' Bluesstil entwickelt, der sich durch klare, schnörkellose Bluesphrasen auszeichnet, die er mit härteren Riffs veredelt. Die Songs wirken dadurch sehr direkt, menschlich und authentisch - als ob er jeden Hörer ganz persönlich ansprechen wolle. Diese Kunst beherrschen nur wenige so gut wie der britische Gitarrist und Sänger.

Nocturne, the critically acclaimed sophomore album by Wild Nothing, is a window into singer/songwriter Jack Tatum's "ideal world" of pop music. Written largely while living in Savannah, GA during 2011, the songs that became Nocturne blur the lines between Tatum's influences and personality. The album features some open references to past music just as his hit debut Gemini did, but it's also an album that feels much less rooted in anything in particular, and marks a distinct evolution in songwriting for Wild Nothing. Gemini was written before there were Wild Nothing fans or even a live band; Nocturne is different. With an unexpected new fan base to turn to, Tatum spent more time perfecting his craft. The obsessiveness of Nocturne is inherent in it's gentle harmonies, orchestrated synths, wandering voice, and songs that speak to his post-Gemini experiences as he explores new paradoxes of pop. And yet, Nocturne isn't obvious, it is a strange and distinctive musical beast, the product of an obsessive pop vision that creates its own reality. Over the past 10 years, Nocturne has distinguished itself as the quintessential Wild Nothing record, and includes catalog highlights "Shadow", "Paradise", and "Only Heather" - all of which have become dependable standouts in Tatum's live performance through the years. This 10th anniversary pressing is limited to 5,000 copies, pressed on blue marble vinyl, and includes brand new marble art inserts, expanded liners written by Tatum, and a 2022 moon chart.

SAVAGE GRACE sind mit einem brandneuen Studioalbum, das den Titel "Sign Of The Cross" trägt, und ihrem neuen Sänger Gabriel Colon zurück, der als eine Mischung aus dem frühen Rob Halford und dem jungen Ian Gillian beschrieben wird!
Auf ihrem neuen Album erschaffen SAVAGE GRACE eine neue Dimension des Metals und bleiben dabei ihren authentischen Wurzeln treu. Gitarrist Christian Logue hat die unglaublichsten Musiker aus der ganzen Welt um sich geschart, um die bisher zerstörerischste Version von SAVAGE GRACE zu erschaffen.
Vierzig Jahre Metal-Erfahrung flossen in die Entwicklung der Songs, um sie zu den Klassikern zu machen, zu denen sie bald werden.
Darüber hinaus ziehen sich provokante, zum Nachdenken anregende Texte und kraftvolle Themen durch diese faszinierende Sammlung an Songs.
Christian Logue kommentiert:
"Dieses Album ist mein Meisterwerk und eine großartige Ergänzung meines Vermächtnisses an universell gefeierten klassischen Metal-Aufnahmen. Jeder Song auf diesem Album ist stark, es gibt keinen einzigen schwachen Track auf dieser Platte."
Die limitierte Vinyl LP hat eine Spotlackierung.

I am happy to present our first tape release by The Jaffa Kid as part of the brand new Digital Artefacts series.
The series is an ode to the sound of the 90s, from Electro, IDM and Jungle to further different experimental stuff and sounds. The choice of tape as format seemed fitting for the aesthetic of the series.
The first EP comes from UK based The Jaffa Kid (previously on 030303, Dischi Nottetempo, Gated Recordings and more) and is a solid mixture of Electro, Techno and beyond.
Reel People Music breaks new ground, in more ways than one, with the launch of fresh compilation series Broken, Deep & Dope. A spin-off from acclaimed compilation brand Soulful, Deep & Dope – introduced back in 2015 – this new series sees the much-loved independent imprint pushing further at the boundaries of soulful music. All with that customary Reel People feeling.
Broken, Deep & Dope 2024, the series’ first instalment, unleashes 20 superlative examples of the soulful ‘bruk’ (broken beat), nu beat and nu jazz sound that has so innovatively informed contemporary dancefloors around the world since its inception back in late Nineties West London.
Bringing together classic cuts from the Reel People Music stable (including those by Daz-I-Kue, Monkey Brothers and Reel People) and key productions from some of its closest affiliates and biggest inspirations (such as Vikter Duplaix, Jazzanova, Bugz In The Attic, Kaidi Tatham, and Sean McCabe), this white-hot selection nips and tucks beautifully between stuttered Latin and Afro rhythms, deep house-edged jams and soaring flights of soul-jazz fancy.
Reel People Music is a label borne out of the soulful success of acclaimed collective Reel People but representing so much more. Launched in late 2009, the imprint has built a fiercely loyal international fanbase through its passion for artist development, musicianship, song-craft and authentic soulful groove.
Broken, Deep & Dope 2024, with its scattered yet compulsive beats, frisky basslines and acrobatic melodies, promises to further expand Reel People Music’s reputation for soulful depth and drama. Gathering old and new favourites from some of the world’s finest taste-making DJs and producers, this is another scorching, oh-soul essential hustle. End of.
Octave One continues to visit some classic Never On Sunday tracks with a second installment of their Messages From The Mothership series. This latest 12" finds the pair release two different Mothership mixes of 'The Bearer' and 'Contemplate'.
The pioneering Detroit brothers have shown a different side to their sound with the Never On Sunday project, both back when it was devised in the early nineties, and more recently when they have looked back over some of the project's key tracks and added a contemporary spin to them. Already this year the Burden Brothers have offered up new takes on 'Price We Pay' and 'A Better Tomorrow' as well as dropping brand new cut 'Mirror Image' and now their fine form continues on this latest release on their own 430 West label.
The A-side features a new Mothership Remix of 'Contemplate' from 2022 that unfolds over an epic 11 minutes of enthralling deep techno. The synths bring classic Detroit soul and the impassioned vocals layer in emotion to the sleek, compelling drums. The Instruments Version strips out the vocals and places more focus on the sublime rhythm and drums.
On the B-side, ' The Bearer' from the 2023 album Never On Sunday gets a fresh Mothership Dub. It is another masterful and almost 12-minute journey that rides on compelling drums and is lit up with a majestic vocal that soars up high while the warm, dubby undercurrents keep things moving in dynamic fashion and smeared cosmic synths bring a great sense of scale. A Mothership Instrumentals version closes out the package.
These are for more fresh perspectives on timeless house and techno fusions from the ever-innovative Octave One.

Der gesellschaftliche Status Quo hält Abstand: Rules Of This Game starten mit ihrem "Electrative Rock" einen Genres- und Generationen-überspannenden Sound. Das Debutalbum kompiliert die digital veröffentlichten Singles! Das geniale Duo aus einem kleinen, rheinländischen Städtchen mit dem Kölner Dom in Sichtweite und bringen etwas Besonderes in die deutsche Musikszene ein: Was ist Electrative Rock? Eine ganz eigene Mischung aus alternativem Rock und EDM, gepaart mit ordentlich Punk-Appeal und einer Menge catchy Hooks. Dazu kommt eine Live-Performance, die hängen bleibt! Nach digitalen Veröffentlichungen mit über 500.000 Streams sowie rund 150 Konzerten in verschiedenen Ländern hat sich die Band eine eingeschworene Fanbase geschaffen. Egal ob auf diversen Festivals, bei Christopher Street Days oder als Club-Support für Dog Eat Dog, The Bollock Brothers oder Rantanplan, die Musik und die Botschaft von Rules Of This Game kommen bei einer Vielzahl von Menschen aus den unterschiedlichsten musikalischen "Revieren" an. So auch beim Essener Label Sunny Bastards, sonst eher auf Punk und Oi! spezialisiert.

Das Album enthält 12 Songs, die eine große Gesamtbotschaft ergeben: Hab niemals Angst davor, zu dir selbst zu stehen, dich auszudrücken und dich selbst zu verwirklichen! Herkunft, Geschlecht und sexuelle Orientierung spielen dabei keine Rolle, denn gegenseitiger Respekt vor der Individualität und den Bedürfnissen eines jeden Menschen gehören zu den Eckpfeilern einer offenen, demokratischen Gesellschaft. Die LP erscheint limitiert mit Poster und den Texten plus Download-Code mit zwei noch unveröffentlichten, brandneuen Bonus-Songs!
