All Vinyl New Releases - News

Restock incoming !

Rumbling beat, mindbending dub chord and atmospheric safari by one of the absolute veterans of the Icelandic techno scene. Q-Box was originally released in 1999 on the legendary Thule Records and has since then been one of the ultimate go-to dub techno track for DJs worldwide. Now, 22 years later, the release has been remastered – and to add a little sprinke to the cake we have worthy remixes from some of the mightiest of the current Reykjavik techno scene.

We start this new vinyl adventure for Nopreset Record with a talent whose music we’ve been loving for quite some time already. Reber offers us 4 groovy originals filled with a great deal of musicality and detail. Minimal in spirit yet generous in synth textures and melodic content, these 4 groovers are also sure to bring happiness to those lovers of solid bass lines out there.

We are super excited about this special EP from Reber so thanks a lot for the support and long live our Vinyl catalog!

Embracing the underground culture with open arms when it matters most, the Dutchman arrives with his 'Goddess Of Vice EP'. Drifting through hardcore, tribal and acid, he aims to create a nostalgic getaway.

Hot on the heels of the Floorplan v Mark Broom double-header on EPM, Robert Hood is back in full minimal techno mode. 'Reflector / Rotate' administers the techno antidote to Hood's house alias as his no nonsense stripped down aesthetic gradually reveals layers and textures of tension and soul within his machine funk ethos.

'Reflector' picks up from the peak-time driving pulse as shown throughout his 'Paradigm Shift' project on Dekmantel giving plenty of big room punch just when needed. Euphoric synths and key changes add to Hood's usual minimal palate, adding a few goose bumps moments on the way.

'Rotate' pairs this back to basics as a solid beat gives way to muted keys and subtle atmospherics, throwing a deeper shadow across the dancefloor. Less is definitely more here.

With the third vinyl release BRVTAL turns to the east and puts together two favorite noisy-industrial techno artists that originate from Asia, Ryuji Takeuchi & Ospiel.

On hearing the first sound on side A, we already know there will be no joking, because the legendary Osaka-based producer and DJ, Ryuji Takeuchi delivered us two uncompromising, heavy raw and noisy tracks. He has a lot behind him, because his first connection with electronic music was in the early 90s. Since then he lived in the US, bought his turntables, gears, got in touch with Techno and other genres that we can catch in his musical legacy.

Don't worry, there will be no drift on the B side either, because the Brussels-based, but South Korean origin DJ and producer, Ospiel represents another two songs of his own characteristic techno sound. Both tracks influenced by his practice of electroacoustic music, he has developed a musical approach based on the exploration of sound matter. His productions present a narrative in which sound design creates a dark and cathartic soundscape. Industrial rhythms are confronted with manipulated textures and sounds, creating an energy specific to the artist.

As the year draws to a close TAU unveils its latest release, with German duo The Cheapers handling business this time around. On this two-tracker we also get a rework from highly respected producer Dave DK, best known for his releases on labels such as Pampa and Kompakt.
The EP starts off with the title track, ‘Poem’. Throbbing bass frequencies intertwine with a sonar-esque fm-bell to establish a serious, purposefulmood. A chilling, detuned vocal sings in Spanish intermittently as The Cheapers tease in a variety of unsettling effects. This unusual, yet stirringcut epitomises the TAU sound, emotive, deep, dark and moving.
Next up is ‘M10’, a stoney-faced rumbler with more strange atmospherics and eccentric production. This is the sound of two experienced producers enjoying themselves and flexing their musical muscles. Relatively simple in its architecture, ‘M10’ shifts and evolves steadily, the energy building in subtle waves keeping you engrossed from start to finish.
Dave DK steps up to remix ‘M10’, giving it more bounce and an assertive rhythm. The pace is quickened, though the morose mood remains.
Dave’s ability to cultivate solid dancefloor movers is clear here as he demonstrates his knowledge and experience with an uptempo reinterpretation.

After the first vinyl release in January 2019, Modvlar returns to printing discs and does it with an artist who needs no introduction. The MOD002 features Valentino Kanzyani as protagonist. The partnership between the Slovenian DJ / producer and Modvlar began a few years ago and his presence behind the console of the Italian-Swiss party / label has become a constant. To complete it all, there are 3 Original Mixes that perfectly define Valentino's style: dancefloor, dancefloor and even dancefloor. Dragosh, one of the ambassadors of the Modvlar house, concludes the ep, who with one of his super Reworks goes to extrapolate and transform one of Valentino's works into something more minimal.

Svoboda continues to amaze us, this time delivering a special release that opens the label's vinyl series. For the first reference, they prepared a very ambitious four-tracker, featuring truly vinyl cuts by Daniel Meister, Lost.Act , Legit Trip, Farid Odilbekov and Arkady Antsyrev.

A-side opens up with a tight beat with an explosive snare, fast-flowing hi-hat rhythm, lovely rhodes chords and swelling bassline bringing 'Solely' that immediately dives you into the deep atmosphere of the whole ep.

'Sneaky Peeky' follows by introducing some 'hip' vibes cutting through the dark atmosphere of the track that escalates with intensity as the track unfolds.

B-side brings even more enhanced grooves in form of 'Holera' which is a minimalistic mixture of those deep elements, that permeate the entire ep, with some acid-work, combined with a solid beat and ambient vocals.

'Call Me' fulfils, having a stripped back sound design with a menacing bassline that helps to achieve a brooding atmosphere full of suspense, completing the characteristic sound of the ep.

« It’s never to late to do everything. My first vinyl came after 10 years of work, when I came 32 years old. And its only beginning for me. I made tracks for this EP in different places in different time. Flat in big city, house in forest, room in old hotel ( house now ). So different moods and different vibe that you can use in different time slots. I hope you will feel my emotions and fun with this music »

Unearthed sees Blue Hour explore tribal rooted sounds inspired by British techno of the late 90's. The two tracks offer a darker outing, focusing on breakbeat sampling, textural processing and subtle repetition making these ideal rhythmic tools for peak time dance floor use.

fter extending his reach and releasing music from new artists, Blue Hour returns to the label with his highly anticipated latest solo EP ‘Devotion’. The record is, as described by the artist ‘a personal homage to my early influences in dance music, frequently visited venues or events and shared experiences with close friends’. Written throughout the summer of 2019 while isolated in nature, Blue Hour identifies a common theme and sound palette to translate these ideas across 4 tracks that explore Leftfield, Techno/Trance, Hardcore, and Ambient with UK club culture at its core.

Arriving some five years after the original 12" created a dance-floor paradigm shift, Roy Of The Ravers returns to Emotinium with an EP of updated retakes, complete with the previously unheard original demo mix in all its twenty minute glory. Emotinium first appeared on the '2 Late 4 Love' cassette in 2015, and caused a storm as part of a 4 track EP with the same name a year later. The track was played as a festival opener by the likes of Bicep and in Sameheads' Berlin basement parties - becoming a must-have that continues as today's second-hand prices testify.

A sense that the dreamy electro meets 303 melodics of the original could be brought up to (breaks) speed held in Roy's mind since creation, so Rave '22 is presented for hearts, minds and feet as we step(pers) out into an updated world. Cut, looped, and reformed, a braindance for millenniums.

This is accompanied by an Ambient Dub for the afters. Highlighting the TB-303's finest again, Roy's garden of dreams flies high, as artificial intelligence finally becomes reality. To close, the long-form Demo awaits. One for completists maybe but in letting the full 20 minutes play you can be drawn in or let go and drift as Tadao Kikumoto's masterwork is presented with respect. Arigato!

R.a.n.d. Muzik Recordings Reissues The 1996 Acid Masterpiece
Fat Filters Vol:1 By Mik Poynter Orginally Found On Uk Label,
Ugly Music.

Tokyo-based producer Omar Santis returns for his 3rd Karakul EP following on from releases on Dionysian Mysteries and Envelope Audio.
'Thursday Night Funktion' is the 6th release on the imprint and really embodies the ethos of Karakul, soulful deep house workouts designed for the dance floor.
The EP is dedicated to his Tokyo club night 'Funktion'; a cultural party that's held every Thursday at one of the world's top ten small clubs, Oath in Shibuya.
Their events have caught the attention of Tokyo's local community and their international guests by its unique branding and "mature but wild" party atmosphere.

The EP starts on a high with the groovy sample heavy disco/house jam 'Nira'. Vocal chops and guitar licks build and culminate until a massive string section releases a second rush of energy taking the track to even higher ground.
The follow up 'Sakura Blossom' is the deepest cut of the release with washed out pads and bleeps cascading while a hypnotic bass keeps the track grooving.
Iron Curtis adds his personal touch and ups the energy on his remix of 'Cameo Appearance', adding a breakbeat, ethereal melodies and vocal snippets floating atop a plucky bass line.
Ending the release on a blissful note 'SpaceColorPalette' is a flurry of melodic synths and muffled percussion that swirl around over the top of a solid kick and bass groove.

Concrete Castle Dubs return with a double sided 10” rocket launcher from the legend that is Spikey Tee. Two heavy hitters on that ruffnek drum and bass tip, Badder Than Me and Bumbo Ras, coming on a frosted clear 10” vinyl.

Having been involved in the music industry since the early 90’s Spikey Tee is certainly no stranger to the game, not only on a production tip but vocally too. From being signed to Virgin as part of the groundbreaking crew The Sindecut, releasing and featuring on music with the likes of Bomb The Bass, Roots Manuva, Morcheeba, Sola Rosa, Mr Scruff, Jah Wobble and many more, releasing his own solo album on Tokyo Dawn in 2020, and bossing the decks as a dj around the globe too.

We’re very proud to have him deliver two sterling tracks for the label and bring the fire we like to represent neatly!

Acid Jazz presents the long-awaited reissue of The Aloof’s cult classic final LP ‘This Constant Chase For Thrills’.

 Formed in 1990, The Aloof were a pioneering electronic act, playing and touring with the likes of Massive Attack and Leftfield. After three albums with the Warner EastWest, they forged their own path, releasing ‘This Constant Chase For Thrills’ on their own Screaming Target label.

 Despite highlights ‘Doing It For Money’ and ‘Painted Face’, as well as ‘So Good’, which featured in the US version of ‘Queer As Folk’, the album didn’t get the coverage it deserved upon release.

 Within a dark and moody atmosphere, there is definite Ibiza and Balearic feel to the record, showing a band with a positive DIY spirit.

Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy presents Balearic Breakfast Volume 1. An eleven track compilation of gloriously transcendent genre-hopping music inspired by one of the most listened to shows on Worldwide FM; most tracks impossible to find on vinyl.

How does one make a Balearic Breakfast?

You need to obviously start with one part blissful sunshine, rising over one part white sand, set to the sound of the sea looping back and forth. But what else - that perfect, idyllic backdrop aside - sums up that most important time of the day, specifically when spent right in the heart of the most glorious archipelago in the western hemisphere?

Luckily, DJ, broadcaster and producer Colleen ‘Cosmo’ Murphy has perfected the recipe.

Colleen has been mixing together Balearic Breakfast shows on Worldwide FM for the last few years after starting in earnest during the first pandemic lockdown. Her shows offer a remedy to the pressures of the outside world; each is curated with the admirable aim of trying to “create a musical atmosphere for escape”, be it from bad weather or bad vibes.

Inspired by formative experiences at The Loft in NYC and on the terrace at Space, Colleen’s Balearic Breakfasts are endlessly eclectic and always inspiring, pulling together - in her words - a “hodge-podge of chill out, spiritual jazz, deep soul, percussive house, quirky disco, indie-dance and what may ‘traditionally’ be called ‘balearic’ (whatever that may be).” Basically, the kind of music you want to hear as the sun breaks over the horizon.

For her first Balearic Breakfast album (lovingly compiled for the ever-visionary Heavenly Recordings), Colleen has put together a set of songs that allow the listener to drift with her between myriad genres and join the unseen dots between them. The journey takes in shooting star ambient sounds, deep soulful hypno-house, ecstatic Neu-esque locked grooves, ethereal sea-shore jazz and Southern Hemisphere starlight disco, with tracks by artists such as Friendly Fires, Mildlife, Linkwood and Lady Blackbird (a track praised by Elton John, who called it “a groove that blows my mind”) and producers such as Andrew Weatherall (under his Asphodells alias), Ashley Beedle, Coyote, the late, great Phil Asher and Cosmo herself.

Flowing together, the tracks perfectly create that musical atmosphere for escape - a recipe for daydreaming yourself into a Balearic Breakfast state of mind. Tune in and leave the everyday behind. The sun’s rising overhead and the waves are at your feet, whatever time of day it is wherever you might be in the world.

'Symmetry Systems' is the new LP by Dennis Huddleston AKA 36. Inspired by Warp's 'Artificial Intelligence' releases from the early 90's, it's a melodic, synthesiser-driven record, with a wink to the past and a nod towards the future.

"I have a deep love for those early Warp albums, particularly the Artificial Intelligence compilations. It was a wonderful time for UK electronic music. That beautiful, warm machine sound, with an optimistic (if somewhat naive) vision for the future. I found the whole thing incredibly inspiring and wanted to revisit those memories, albeit with a 36 twist"

Like 'Wave Variations' before it, this record explores various approaches to the theme, with each track directly inspiring the next one. All tracks are sequenced in the order they were made. 'Symmetry Systems' is a collection of hypnotic machine music, made with a delicate human touch.

Positive Not Happy label owners The Lumens are coming back with the follow up of their label debut. Same as the first release, "Vetro Ep" has two original tracks and two guest remixes. Both "Sparse" and "Vetro" original mixes have the typical driving rhythms of the duo, combined with unceasing 303ish acid lines and deep chords, resulting in a shiny and addictive club vibe. On the remix task, we have the popular Berlin groove maestro Diego Krause, delivering a killer straight house beat rework, on the flip side Pennyroyal After Tea co-founder Ricky Leo signs a deep and classy techno interpretation. More quality and avant-garde grooves from Positive Not Happy, setting their own standard a step further.

Mote Evolver kicks off 2014 with Future Modular EP from Luke Slater's Planetary Assault Systems alias, presenting sharp-as-ever fresh sound of P.A.S. that has enticed the audience as long as the mighty 'Systems' have existed. Never a stranger to a forward thinking sound aesthetic and with a title like 'Future Modular', P.A.S. packs the EP with 3 tracks that spark with Futurism and tightly channel the energy at the tip of the boiling point.

The title track sets the tone of the EP - positively powerful and playful - with its groovy bass drum and acid infusing an ample dose of funky rhythmic variations. But it wouldn't be P.A.S. without the thrilling tension that locks you in, "Riot in Silo 12" on the B-side slips into the darker side, keeping the hats just below the surface and layer by layer uncovering the electrifying suspense throughout the track. "Serc" pops open with the bursting energy of kick drum then takes you to the uncharted realms of cold minimalistic drops reminiscent of early Sähkö purism, and masterfully brings a variety of moving elements and textures into dynamic captivating techno.

Future Modular is yet another top form techno EP full of ideas and dimensions from P.A.S., a superb successor to the previous constantly floor-stirring No Exit EP to offer kinetic prowess that never diminishes.

Cititrax present the follow-up to An-i's Kino-i debut 12', released at the start of the year. The record is pressed on 160 gram fluorescent magenta orange vinyl and housed in a high gloss grey Pantone sleeve. TIP!!!
An-i continues his love affair with electronics offering us three distinct slabs of throbbing machine funk. The opening track Gutz is a dense mutant high energy number, modern yet timeless. Rut, the first track An-i recorded whilst still living in New York and the first one to catch our attention, opens the B side with a massive dose of syncopated teutonic mayhem, spacier and sparser than the rest. Save Us completes the release with an anthem of dirty warehouse techno.

Bona-fide techno classic gets a much-needed re-release. Features original mix (remastered for extra volume) and bass-heavy remix from Jerome Hill.

Following the exclusive heavy mix compilation that Jimi Jules knocked out for us recently, it's time to deliver on those exclusives via two EP's from the man himself and we kick things off with EP number one, 'Midnight Juggernaut' where Jules' studio prowess is on full display with three stellar originals including a remix from the mighty Recondite.

Following the exclusive heavy mix compilation that Jimi Jules knocked out for us recently, it's time to deliver on those exclusives via two EP's from the man himself and we kick things off with EP number one, 'Midnight Juggernaut' where Jules' studio prowess is on full display with three stellar originals including a remix from the mighty Recondite. Jimi's 'Abandoned Soul' original starts the EP and is equal parts moody as it is groovy as classic 303 acid fuses with Jules' post modern drum programming resulting in a smooth, yet energetic ride into the shimmering corners of dance floor euphoria. Recondite steps up and delivers a beautiful rework of 'Abandoned Soul' in true Recondite fashion keeping all the original parts in tact while incorporating the lush melodic progressions he is so well known for. Next up is the title track from the EP 'Midnight Juggernaut', where Jules shows his affinity for artfully crafted minimalism as remnants of early Perlon stylings merge with a more modern melodic approach where the seemingly empty spaces are filled lush, sonic textures. Rounding out the EP is 'Othervision' as Jules' puts 'four to the floor' to full use as one single lead line carries the tune to an incognito crescendo of emotion emanating in a well thought out and expertly crafted EP with something for everyone and every situation.

How do you go on after a feast like - The Division' - especially if it included a main course like Neutron Dance You don't! And you don't even have to try. But like with any great meal, one can do magic with the leftovers (see chop suey, stew or goulash for further reference). In any case, Krystal Klear doesn't need to worry about that. Having cracked the DNA code of - dance music' on his first EP for Running Back, this double-A-side-follow-up-single feels alive, floats upstream and fires on all cylinders. While Euphoric Dreams is the musical incarnation of an Alexander Shulgin formula (your spine gets tingled all the way including a wonderfully prolonged break down) or the scoring of the proverb that - at the bottom of patience one finds heaven' and - happiness is just around the bend'. Speaking of which, Miyoki does exactly that to every pair of knees around. A relentless bass line and a deadly snare (- yes, you thrill me, when you fill me'*) are enough to force almost any kind of dance floor into submission. *Freely adapted from Les Femmes - Yes, You Thrill Me - Kee Wee, 1984

Tras una larga espera, ya tenemos aquí Gente Seria Viste Chándal Volumen 2. Un disco

* Spearhead Records label boss Steve BCee returns with his 4th studio album, and it's safe to say that it's his best one yet. Not just a solo affair, BCee has also drafted in some of the finest vocal and production talent around. With features from two time best d&b vocalist winner Riya and d&b legend Logistics being just the start.

* 'Northpoint' is BCee at his most diverse. From the early 90's hardocre influenced 'Keep Moving On' to the Jungle roots of 'Hollow Eyes' this is an album that really showcases how broad the D&B spectrum can be while still keeping to the Spearhead ethos of being uplifting musical d&b packed full of heart & soul. BCee said 'I wanted to make an album packed full of d&b that would work in a club just as well as it would in the car. No fillers, no showcasing how I can produce house or hip-hop or whatever, just pure no nonsense drum & bass'.

* With BCee's Spearhead Presents brand regularly selling out shows at clubs like the legendary Egg in Kings Cross & Shoreditch's Village Underground, plus his growing DJ & production schedule and 'The Vanguard Project' his alias as a duo with fellow d&b produced Villem, it's safe to say that even though BCee has been in the game for 16 years, he's only just getting started.

* Support from Friction, Mistajam, Metrik, Technimatic, S.P.Y, Nu:Tone, Logistics, London Elektricity and a whole load more...

Electro Transmissions 003, nothing to say about this assassin called Electro Nation that you don't already know. This EP contains four tracks produced during the lockdown, each track is full of analog synths, drum machines and vocoder. Very limited units, this time on splatter colored vinyl, packed in a really nice way as we have come to know by the Fundamental crew!

London's tight-knit underground spawned the NorthSouth Records back in 2017 and though releases come slowly, they are of high quality. This year's second offering comes from Privu, a fast-rising hero from the Romanian scene with a stylish sound. Opener 'Altona' has a nice fat bassline and well-defined kick drums making for a fulsome groove, 'Amazonia' picks up the party with some silky percussion and spaced out pads, 'Time' is a twisted and playful cut with smeared pads and drums that pop right off, while 'Blandenur' closes with the most colourful synths and stabs of the lot. A characterful EP of stripped-back sounds for sure.

OTK007 Vol 1 - Cojoc
Sepp Remix
Limited 300 copies

Hot on the heels of his doom-electro release on CYBERDOME, Italian producer D3070 readies his Lobster Theremin debut with five lairy cuts of end-of-the-world techno and electro.

‘Orbital’ is a simple, no frills track; uncompromising in-your-face energy meets melting acidic basslines on a 4x4 rhythm, before the noise breaks on ‘Space Invader’ and a mutated electro-step emerges out from a dark alleyway covered in slime.

Dubstep/footwork blends increase the velocity on ‘You Got Me’; new territory for the emerging producer and one that we can’t wait to see him explore more - before we come crashing back into the horror with a cut of downright frightening sound design on ‘Darkness’, it’s dusty lo-fi rhythm marching on fourth and into the fiery gates.

‘Artemis’ provides room to breathe as we awaken from our nightmare, getting our head above water before floating towards a kaleidoscope of tangled emotion.

“Nemasis” is a Various Artists that opens with an original track of Error Etica, a production in the purest style of this artist, Death Factory is a dark and deep techno track, as well as energetic, a cut created with modular synths. The second cut of face A is in charge of Pedro Pina an artist from the Barcelona scene who presents us an original track techno sound, drone, with the title ASP02, a production in which he twists the modular synths to create a very personal atmospheric climax, in addition this track in its vinyl edition ends in a locked groove, which gives a different and exclusive touch to this reference, trying to stop time, and claim Justice today more than ever.

Face B consists of 2 tracks, the first cut is an original industrial theme of Delusions also from the Barcelona scene, Blood of Sacrifice for which they have been inspired by an apocalyptic future. For their composition they have used modular synths, drum machines and also contact microphones to create the atmospheres. And to close the vinyl another artist of Spain Lectromeda has developed a Blood of Sacrifice Remix adapting it to your personal sound, giving it a more techno mental and hypnotic approach, but at the same time very navigable and dancing.

Box full of house music

This new EP, entitled "Serenity remixes", pays tribute to POPOF's eponymous hit released in 2009. True Who's Who of electronic music, it will include several remixes of this classic by artists that we no longer present to you: Vitalic, NTO, Pig & Dan, Booka Shade, Oxia and Atoem.

After several digital publications it is time for the former vinyllabel "Twin Town Production" to present to you a classically oriented house record:

"Compensation" is the title of the first EP of "Roshan Bay", who previously and foremost released under the techno alias of "Lars Landen". In his creation the relatively unknown artist abstains from a whitenoise-studded high gloss production without trailing off to be a grotesquely distorted imitation of the house music origins.

The titletrack is coined by its sheer dissonant atmosphere, driven by a warm-friendly groove and intersected by fluffy chords. "Marylin" in contrast represents swooshing house distinguished by a saxophone sample and the melancholic blues bassline. His interpetation of "C'hantal"s 90's rave manta "The Realm" certainly provides some furore. Additionally suprising is the remixers "Hofuku Sochi" containing a "Vapor Club Edit" of the outro "_" that elevates the whole creation to a contemporary level.
