All Vinyl New Releases - News

Edouard Cheritel is a Paris based French composer who has been working on classical compositions for almost 25 years. At the age of four he started to learn the clarinet at the National Conservatory of Lyon and stayed there for 21 years. During this long development of his musical capabilities he has learned to write and play chamber and symphonic music - he studied classical composition for 15 years - and worked in the fields of modern composition for another 6 years.

In the meantime Edouard always experimented with electronic music while being a member of several electronic and pop bands. The biggest commercial success was his project "Employee Of The Year", which has released two albums, played several times on the French national television, has done remixes for SOHN & Wild Belle and provided several pieces for advertisements.

After building this foundation as a very versatile artist over years, Edouard Cheritel finished his first solo compositions called "Suite No1" in 2019. They form a compact debut Suite consisting of four movements combining the classical composition skills of Edouard with his sensitivity for electronic tunes and a lightly pop appeal, resulting in a partly melancholic and partly very energetic journey.

Beside the activities regarding the ongoing Suite series, Edouard Cheritel currently works on his debut solo full length and a project called "People" that he will realize in 2020. For "People" Edouard will compose music day-to-day together with and for the people in the pedestrian areas of Paris. Concrete plans for this project will be revealed at the end of 2019. In the future there will also be opportunitities to see his pieces being performed by himself solo in an intimate context or with a complete live orchestration he is currently working on.

Since its conception three years ago, the Hamburg based label hafendisko has been patiently building its reputation with a diverse and varied artist roster. Alongside releases from emerging talent such as Deo & Z-Man and Brynjolfor, it forms parent label hfn music's outlet for club oriented music whether with full releases or remixes for artists such as Kasper Bjørke and Faded Ranger and just recently welcomed renowned remixers such as Michael Mayer, Charles Webster and Luke Solomon, to name a few. Now with the release of Nummer Eins, Hafendisko is taking the next step in its evolution, serving up the best of past and present releases together with a string of exclusive cuts that signal an undeniably bright future. It's machine music with real heart and soul as, time and again, the tracks locate that elusive sweet spot that unifies mind and body. The opening act replicates this highly collectable four track vinyl EP that precedes the digital release: Snacks' ‚Easy' provides an aptly titled intro, with sweet melodies, warm synth swells and looping vocal hooks evolving over a low slung, funk inflected groove. 'Purdie', the duo's debut last September instantly became a huge underground hit, while they are currently working on their debut album. Unkwon is Anders Dixon from Copenhagen and people will stop asking if it's a typo soon. Just off his stunning remix for Trentemøller's Deceive he takes it underground with the stuttering beats and melancholy phase of ‚Everything', building a cavernous yet claustrophobic soundscape that's designed to make your eyeballs sweat, before Ewan Pearson's NRG instrumental of Kasper Bjørke's ‚Apart' goes into dance floor overdrive, upping the ante again. Both the Michael Mayer and the Ewan Pearson mixes of Bjørke's final single off his newest album stirred a buzz.

After welcoming a brand new name to the label with the last EP, Moon Harbour now invites back someone who debuted on it in 2013. That man is Sabb, a tech house producer from Kosovo who has eight plus years of experience of turning out infectious club tracks. He has done so on labels like Noir and Saved, and here serves up a great single that comes with remixes by Dennis Ferrer and Detlef.

His excellent original, 'One of Us' features Forrest and is a jostling, full blooded track with shimmering drums and percussive patterns unravelling over driving kicks. Smeared synths and subtle little drum fills flesh-out the rooted groove as soulful, whispered vocals add an intimate and organic edge. It's sure to be a winner this summer and comes with two equally refreshing remixes.

The first is from Objektivity label boss Dennis Ferrer, who is a pioneering US house producer and DJ with an enviable and storied history with house music. His version is more stripped back, deeper and more patient. The vocals take on a ghostly and pop-leaning feel, melodies are all trippy and spaced out. The track oozes emotive vibes as it flows on and will surely have you
singing along in no time. This one could well be one of the anthems of the summer.

Finally, Detlef, a Viva Music mainstay, keeps things raw, old school and house with his chunky remix. All based around fat drums and dry, cutting hi hats, it is a sweaty way to round out a hugely varied EP that really offers something for everyone.

Zingiber Audio is back with a second Various Artists, Zingiber Audio 06.

The hard hitting « Laboratory » is delivered by More Than Material, the joint project between Jedsa Soundorom and Gauthier DM. With releases on French Imprints like Adult Only, Robsoul and Catwash Records, here the Parisian joins Zingiber Audio with a thumbing sub and choppy vocals as tension building effects come into play. Meanwhile, COR100's « House Test » offers groove-led drums and heady synths with a plethora of supernatural sounds.

On the flip side Jedsa Soundorom and Highpath Records boss Thomas Roland team up with « Bananier » which utilises shuffled percussion, resonant vocal slices and mystical sounds that convey a spooky atmosphere. Finally, Lowwax label owner Carlos Sanchez gives his take with a killer groove using crisp cymbals alongside brooding pads and a frenzied reworking on the vox.

SMARAGD003 Johnny Island Radius EP on clear, transparent green, and black vinyl!

what a cool track

F/mixes from 2 house heavyweights, Louie Vega & Bob Sinclar. A floor stomper! Louie drops his signature Latin beats w/Mr V's urban street style rap. Sinclar delivers a big room remix w/bouncy tribal beats + catchy electro style riff.

Lied's debut release brings Robert's "Way of Being" double EP front center stage with a mixed bag of goodies for assorted times.
Beginning with "Skyhaze", which will surely trigger memories of Santana "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock 69, with bass guitar and solo to boot, driving through to "Roots", a roboticized peak time mellow-drama. The more after hours friendly "Knock" occupies the back end of the B side with acidic influences entangled with balearic harmonies and silvery grained out melodies.

"Blue Devils" toes the line of it's predecessor with a more bass driven narrative while "Zero Zero" slips into a more atmospheric disguise, finally bringing it home with a "Sneak Peak" into the more minimalistic and syncopated side of Robert, suited best for early hours of the night.

Vinyl only, just a taste of what's to come.

The label 'Play Groove' by Sebastian Ledher, has grown in the digital market steadily in recent years, since it emerged to become one of the most respected Minimal Deep Tech labels on the scene. It has given visibility to new emerging talents and not just big names.

Now they want to show their most exquisite and underground, confirming their prolific inspiration when it comes to their personal label.

The Colombian DJ and producer, presents a tremendous Various Artist in side A. We found Sebastian Ledher and Alex Ground. On the side B. Unknown Collective and Daniel Meister.

Taking 4 quality cuts to create a versatile Vinyl, once again demonstrating his skills in the studio, is also showing us his most artistic part with his artwork for the cover, with this initiative seeks to capture that magical connection between music and the art. This nuanced fusion of intellect makes it an innovative product, inspires the senses and creates memorable sensory experiences. It is precisely what Sebastian Ledher wants to achieve.

In the Various Artist, we will find new talents as well as some well-known names, a collection that goes from the Microhouse with deep / minimal touches. With a polished and blunt bass line. That surround with their elegant and minimalist groove, the tracks are focus on the groovy, which sounds along with deep synthesizers and with a light touch of acid, and atmospheres of pads and sequences of celestial chords that filter into the mix, together with heavy drums contrasted by light snares and voices that come and go with obscenely hypnotic LFO games, that complement them superbly. The tracks are a roller coaster of emotions.

The latest release on microcastle welcomes Brian Cid back to the label for a brand new EP. The US artist last appeared on the Canadian imprint a year ago with his well received 'Belles Du Shaman' EP. Three diverse and uniquely organic productions along with a remix from Eagles & Butterflies saw the release reach #1 in Beatport's Electronica and Progressive House charts, while placing #4 in their overall Top 100. A subsequent release on Manjumasi, along with a stunning EP on his Endangered imprint saw Brian's music played and supported by Adriatique, Tale Of Us, Lee Burridge, John Digweed, Henry Saiz, Guy J, Hernan Cattaneo and Joris Voorn. His Theory Of Light project with Holmar Filipsson from Thugfucker debuted with two remixes for Cityfox while a solo EP is due on the label later this year. Now making his much anticipated return to microcastle Brian presents his three track artist showcase 'Pluto', alongside a remix from Marvin & Guy. 

We have finally come to the second release of Abstrakt Minded Records. After a small period of wait, and the good success of the Herck’s remix in AMR001, the owners Friedrich Becker and Sabèr have found the right artist to propose for the new release.

Denis Kaznacheev, the owner of Nervmusic itself, seemed like the best move at this time.

With his eclectic sound he proved to be one of the best producer in the underground scene during the last years, showing technical skills that are uncommon and definitely have the power of knowing how to treat the crowd during playing.

AMR002 contains two originals, side A and side B.

Kaznacheev received total freedom in doing what he can do at his best, this is the reason why he had the possibility to spread his technical skills throughout these two long compositions, which are long enough to tell a story.

Both tracks are based on a live arrangement that gives the sense of change at every beat, and a constant moving groove.

The first track (side A) is a 14 minutes journey, starting with a sort of intro where the mysterious vocal introduces one sound at time.

Textures give life to the track, and the groovy bass is the leading part of this.

Everything is framed in a minimalistic drum pattern in a straight 4/4 rhythm, that gives a sense of hypnosis throughout the whole composition.

The second half of the track is where magic happens, and from a dark clubby sound, we get into a more floating and trippy vibe, with a melodic sound that will take you to the next level of emotions.

The second track (side B), like the first one, is such long but definitely has a slightly different vibe and feeling.
Is the perfect contemporary minimal show off. This is what listeners definitely want to hear in a club.

At this time, the rhythm is the leading part, every short and minimal percussion has a sort of swing that creates a groove that gives goosebumps. The always changing drums is what makes the track moving for 15 minutes, they never stop and they are filled with
great FXs.

In this composition the melodic part is not the principal element, however we enjoy the listening of this combination of dark stabs and glitchy sounds that put a big smile on your face, for sure.

Abstrakt Minded Records is grateful to propose this fantastic work by Denis Kaznacheev, who once again gives the proof of being one of the best artist in the industry.

What Unit 2, the classic Mad Mike production for the seminal Detroit house label Happy Records (a subdivision to Underground Resistance, distributed by Submerge) remixed some decades later Blasphemy, you might cry, a sacrilege, others might say, Discogs police sirens everywhere. Whatever the verdict, approved and sanctioned by the copyright holder himself, here it comes again and again. Begotten during a KiNK live set, successfully identified by the Running Back CEO, extracted and road tested as a phantasmal endorphin-producing staple in his DJ sets, later released as a limited, stamped white label and now properly issued by popular demand. People whose life is not a big room or a rave in a car park, will find a tamer, but nonetheless heartfelt remix by Rome's dynamic duo Tiger & Woods on the flip. Deep doesn't always rhyme with sleep.

Our 15th LMML Record is written and produced by french duo 'Charonne' straight outta Paris. Four magical cuts, with a very unnique spirit & warmth to it. A promising Team to watch out for in the future, cause' life is a limo dance'

On 2nd November 2018 Sven Tasnadi is back on Moon Harbour with a brand new and brilliant full length entitled Bridges'. It features a host of collaborators from Huxley to David Jach to Supernova, and showcases the German's always infectious house sound. Four of the 12 tracks will be released on an exclusive vinyl sampler, and on 5th October Sven Tasnadi serves up the tasty album single It's Your Love' with a brilliant remix from man of the moment, Dennis Cruz.

Tasnadi hails from Leipzig and is a master of groove. He distills his tunes to the core elements needed to get you moving and feeling good, and has done so over three artist albums and more than 25 EPs since 2005. For this album, though, he decided to work with a range of musical friends as a way of, he says, making a clear statement against the current worldwide trend of protectionism.'
The album is informed by the saying Build bridges, not walls', and as Sven explains, bridges bring people together. And only when we come together can we change things for the better. The house and techno scene initially attracted me 25 years ago as it was filled with people who were open-minded and versatile in nature, and I'm going to do my musical part to keep it that way.'
The album kicks off with the effortlessly cool and breezy house groover 'Nothing' with David Jach. Things get cheeky with the late night chords and rolling bass of 'My Soul' with UK master Huxley and then Italian titans Supernova appear on 'Keep Da Shit', a more edgy tech tune with smart vocal stabs to bring the energy levels higher. Sven goes solo for the feel good vibes of 'It's Your Love' with its heart aching vocal sample, and again for the tropical, exotic and melodically colourful 'Tequila' which takes us deep into the jungle. Filburt is the friendly connection on the deep, cuddly jazz keys of 'French Dress' and after a brilliantly loose hip hop interlude, Sven cooks up the sample heavy, party starting 'Get Down' with Mac-Kee. Two versions of 'Make It Right' offer heartfelt, raw house while 'Strings Rebirth' is a freaky late night cut with warped synths and naughty bass and 'Bug In My Machine' with Moses Mehdi closes things out in starry eyed and cosmic melodic house territory.

This is a superb album that explores many different house sounds, plenty of real emotions and well crafted melodies. The tracks become bridges and leave a lasting impression on your soul as a result. Build Bridges, not walls.

Light Blue Vinyl / Vinyl Only

Fresh summer feeling with The Rebel and Pablo Ruiz on
Legofunk 7" light blue version

Back in 2015, two of Sweden's most coveted electronic music producers quietly collaborated.

The duos outcomes where complied and made available via a trifling 20 self release tapes,circulated by the two during an event in Lithuania.

Ever since copies have traded hands in second hand market for staggering prices and cassette tape rips of the release have been circulating the web - one of these caught the attention of Vaagner, a label dedicated to reissuing noteworthy cassette releases from around the globe.

What makes the release so special is its expressiveness, the duo originally used the tape medium to explore various facets of their sound, resulting in an explorative release that feels both invigorating and reflective.

Now 3 years later, Vaagner is proud to present it's 3rd release, a reissue of Acronym and Korridor's seminal untitled cassette, made available digitally and on vinyl for the first time, re-mastered by Rashad Becker, featuring bespoke artwork and including an unreleased bonus track from the duo which was conceived during the time of the original release.

The vinyl edition is limited to 300 copies world wide and each release comes with a download code. 100 of these copies are limited to the vaagner bandcamp and additionally come with a riso printed insert.

Idealist returns with his second long player this October, entitled 'Mind Field' and featuring eight dub-leaning cuts from the Swiss producer. Based out of Zurich, Switzerland, producer and DJ Idealist has become a respected figure in raw, dubby house and techno over the past five years via his releases on Echocord and his Idealistmusic and Details Series labels, picking up support along the way from the likes of Mike Huckaby, Dana Ruh, Tini and Mandar to name but a few. Here though we see him returning to Copenhagen's Echocord with his second long player following 2016's 'Firewood Street' on his own label. Leading on the package is 'Explorer', setting the tone with crunchy percussion, billowing stab sequences and airy dub swells before 'Dimension' employs pulsing subs, soft organ like chords and gritty analogue drums as its foundation whilst fluttering stabs and sweeping atmospherics wander within.'Stage One' is up next, consisting of a weight low end drive, thunderous kick and snappy clap running in unison with swirling dub echoes and tension building strings, a shining example of an effective dub-techno tool. 'Golden Places' offers something different, this time round embracing a walking bass groove, soft 303 style resonant flutters and cinematic strings. 'M.I.T.H' opens up the flips side of the release, upping the energy levels with a dynamic, robust rhythm, gritty stabs and murky modulating effects throughout before 'Singularity' edges things back into deeper territory with fluttering synth licks, vacillating pads and low-slung drums. 'Smoke and Mirrors' embraces a loop driven approach next with a focus on short, sharp synth cuts, bumpy drums and skippy hats before 'Final Cut', as the name would suggest, wraps up the album with oscillating percussion, choppy bass hits and raw drums all unfolding with the subtle nuances prevalent throughout yet another smooth and understated addition to Idealist's catalogue.

"With its latest release, Altered Moods Recordings explores the mind of Spanish talent Jesus Gonsev, who co-owns and runs the Troubled Kids record label. Jesus, who has recorded for not only his own Troubled Kids but also for stalwarts such as Prog City Deep and deepArtSounds, has made waves in both his native Spain and the rest of Europe as a DJ and producer, playing alongside pioneers such as Ernie Albacete of Minuendo Recordings and Detroit wunderkind Delano Smith, and recording a cracking EP on his own label with deepArtSounds boss Dan Piu. AMR is the first US label he has recorded for, and he brings a special treat to these shores."

called OutpostLive to tell the tale of the Goddess Tacita, the female personification of eternal silence.

The myth was told for the first time by Ovid. Lala (which in Greek means to speak) was a beautiful girl courted by Jupiter, who punished her for having revealed their romance to his sister. She had her tongue cut off by lightning and was condemned to silence forever. Then she was sent to the kingdom of the Underworld accompanied by Mercury. OutpostLive reenacts this ancient Roman myth and guides us on an enchanting and magical journey to the Underworld.

"Fiore Bianco" evokes the voices of dead souls arising from the obscure abysses, broken only by some pads and harmonies. Norbak, on the other hand, brings a brief glimmer of light into Tacita's underground journey with its strident and brilliant sounds, a metaphor for Jupiter's bolt lightning. The plot then thickens with "Sacri Misteri", with its insistent bass channeling Tacita into a vortex of flames.

The escape route is finally offered by Ness, who brings Tacita back to the surface. The journey ends on an ethereal note, thanks to repeated sounds and rhythms, suspended between earth and sky.
