All Vinyl New Releases - News

Synthesiser music for nightclubs.

Florian Meindl's third artist album "Time Illusion" marked another big milestone in his career. After several live act shows, where he
showcased his flair for live performance with some heavy equipment including his Eurorack ModularSystem, he has picked 3 artists who he admires for their own unique take on techno music to remix the album.

His choice fell on LUCY, who is responsible for the curation of the
highly respected Stroboscopic Artefacts imprint, on SIGHA who is
known and respected for his modular system performances and
production techniques on labels like Token or Blueprint. The third
choice fell on up and coming Netherlands based producer and DJ duo TWR72 who continually put out fresh and game-changing releases on their label FLOAT Rec.

The LUCY remix spans on a whole A side with 45 rotations per minute and opens a window in a yet unknown dimension of expanding effect drones which takes the listener on an extraordinary trip of its own. He took the opportunity and wove the breakbeat from the original composition into a straight-clocked rhythm while giving the harmonic content a new unheard surreal depth. This track has got the potential to suck the dancers minds into a strange journey and yet keep them on the tidy rhythm.

Fran Hartnett performs and records his tracks in one take. He is also a well known tattoo artist who operates out of Skin City in Dublin. He actually tattooed my wife's foot recently which is the most painful part of the body you can tattoo, apart from the genitals, but she wasn't up for that. Anyway I digress, so he makes techno, he's an artist, DJ, live act, he puts art on people's skin, he did the art for his release and the next 7 UX releases. He's a really nice guy, he's got great taste in music, so he's actually starting to piss me off, is there anything he's not good at He's making me look bad. I tried to outdo him with a remix of his track "Incisions, Decisions" but I think you'll agree the original is better so fuck you Fran, fuck you.

New Material On NMG By Wellknown "Kromestar"

DOMINA TRXXX welcomes two legends to the Family. Mr Neil Landtsrumm and The Horrorist.
Both don't need any introdution. Their great collaboration comes around with an additional remix by Tobias Schmidt!

Producing under his techno moniker 'NEUMANN', Tobi Neumann delivers his first WCF release - a four track EP - available in vinyl and digital format - titled 'Coaster' which also includes a remix by club's resident Kyle E.


Beginning with the prowling track 'Coaster', its slow and steady pace eases the listener into a sultry sound from NEUMANN, evidently making a clear divide between his usual house/disco induced productions as 'Tobi Neumann'. A rolling groove entails with a clear cowbell and tinkling melody, smoothly layered over a subtle kick drum and moody bass line.


'Broken voices' opens with a mean kick leading to a significant change in tone from 'Coaster' with a sense of urgency entwined through an undulating melody. A blend of scintillating synths over a menacing bass shows the spacey side of NEUMANN, who's not afraid to explore the muddier side of electronic music.


The third track 'Atlantis' revolves around an accelerated rhythm accompanied by thundering modular-percussion. Woven with broken bleeps and high-energy synths, it's a powerful track appropriate for an intimate, sweaty and weird rave.


Finishing off, a remix of 'Coaster' from Egg's and label's resident Kyle E. The burgeoning producer and selector puts his own uplifting stamp on NEUMANN's venture into murky techno. With a throbbing bass and crisp bells, it's the rich analogue use with shades of euphoria that make it a perfectly atmospheric track to end NEUMANN's first WCF release.

Nervous Horizon is very proud to present TSVI's debut album: 'Inner Worlds'.
The album is about reconnecting to one's true self and the discovery of the inner worlds: it is born from an ongoing artistic journey, which began in TSVI's childhood. The artist grew up with parents who practise Hinduism, which is quite unusual for an Italian family. In most recent times he was hugely inspired by his partner's religious and musical background, after she exposed him to Middle Eastern music and Sufi ideologies. TSVI started creating tracks that were influenced by bellydance percussionists such as Emad Sayyah and Hossam Ramzy, combined with Dancehall, Tarraxo and Trance.
The album is largely influenced by the role of music in transcendental Sufi practices and resembles an inner journey through different states of meditation and self-discovery.
Vedic and Tantric knowledge are also important here. Each track is a state of mind from the opening one, 'Root', to the last one, 'Crown', as they represent the first and last Chakras and all the other states found in-between.
Get ready to embark on a journey through mind, body and soul.

Gorgeous, intimate yet diaphanous ambient/shoegaze from Chihei Hatakeyama, limning a sublime, ancient Japanese atmosphere through steeped electronics and billow touches of guitar to leave you refreshed and light-headed like a good cup of the green stuff. A sterling way to mark his 5th LP in 10 years for Lawrence English’s Room 40 “A few years ago I went on a trip to the Asuka region. This album, ‘Forgotten Hill’, draws all of its inspiration from this trip. The experiences I had on this journey were used as compositional guides to compile the sonic impressions I experienced during this time. The Asuka region was once land that hosted the capital of Japan from the 6th to 7th centuries. Today, it is an unpopular rice-drenched rural area, and although there are few tourists compared to Kyoto and the northern part of Nara, the region still draws people as there it features various burial mounds, known as ’Kofun’. One of these old burial mounds is called the ‘Ishibutai Kofun’, which loosely translates as Stone Stage. When I was a child, I learned about the existence of this old burial mound through Tezuka Osamu’s Manga and since that time, I always wanted to visit there.
The Ishibutai Kofun has a special characteristic, as the stone chamber/tomb has become bare. It sits barren, having fallen outside of time, left on the slope of the hill. Usually this stone chamber should be buried in the soil, however this one is exposed. I do not know why it is exposed, whether it was under construction or if it was destroyed, but this sense of time and place surrounding this object really captured my imagination. It was the spring when I visited there, and yet I was the only person in sight. I have no idea what kind of stories are trapped within this tomb, all those things seen and heard by the rock. When I stood in front of it, I was captured by the feeling that I wanted to get on the stone stage, to be consumed by the burial mound. As I went inside the stone chamber I felt a strong sense of pressure. While getting down the stairs leading to the dark stone chamber, this pressure grew stronger, it was a very particular and strange sensation.
With this record, I aimed to create music, like a labyrinth, based on these days spent in the Asuka region. This is a record about time, about losing direction in time and wondering where it is exactly the past, the present and the future might meet, and under what circumstances this might happen

Tone Dropout's finest Dawl delivers on the A-side, two gems with electro influences, like only he can do. On the B-side is Moxx from the Viennese House and Techno label called Yoshi, with his first solo works after the infamous 'Waves' EP in 2014.

Taking inspiration from a vast musical sphere, the Munich-Vienna pair Jorkes are widely recognised for their open-minded and passionate approach to electronic music which is translated through their Freeride Millenium imprint and own unique productions. ‘Cross The Line’ will be the duo’s first outing since 2016 seeing them join up with the Italian pair Hard Ton who are known for releases on Wonder Stories, Luv Shack Records, Toy Tonics and many more. Jorkes invite Live At Robert Johnson artist Massimiliano Pagliara and Philpot founder SoulPhiction aka Jackmate for remix duties which tops off this distinctive release highlighting the openness and sensibility of their musical philosophy.
‘Cross The Line’ begins the EP with alleviating pads balanced harmoniously with alluring, heart-warming vocals and gentle keys drifting throughout before Massimiliano Pagliara delivers an infectious remix focusing on hypnotic bass grooves, effervescent drums and undulating pads fluttering naturally with the stirring modulations.
‘Jackmate’s Dub Mix’ deploys low-riding resonations fused with muffled tones and thrilling, shuffling rhythms within whereas ‘Jackmate’s 90s Mix’ focuses heavily on organic percussion rolling throughout with robust musical elements and looping vocals. SoulPhiction’s ’Dub Mix’ completes the pack with a tranquil take on the original laying focus on funk-infused instrumentals and subdued jazz drums.

Echocord sub-label Echo Echo returns with its first release of 2019 this May, coming courtesy of son.sine with his ‘Variable States’ EP. Leyton Glen aka son.sine is a relatively new name to most having only released a handlful of EP’s to date, initially in 2000 he released ‘Upekah’ via the Nurture imprint before Delsin recognized its timeless quality and re-issued it in 2013, a testament to Glen’s sole work. Here though we see Echo Echo mark a return for son.sine with a new EP of original material, his first in four years. The thirteen minute ‘Uncertainty’ opens, driven by hazy atmospherics, pulsing acid bass tones and murky sub bass while glitched out percussion subtly carries the cinematic groove. ‘Evident Topology’ follows, taking a more robust approach with jittery low-end chops, expansive dub chords and an amalgamation of emotive strings and jazzy bass licks ebbing and flowing within. ‘Three Linear Decay’ then rounds out the package via skippy organic drums, ethereal pad swells and metallic bleeps.

Etch's 'Ups & Downs' album is a collection of dubs which date as far back as 2014 and up to the present day. The album's tracks are united by being examples of the artists' efforts to escape the shackles of reality by using music as a vehicle.

"Timeless", Goldie's first album in 1995, changed the face of the musical culture in England by democratizing the drum & bass scene, conscripting Goldie as a local star. But not only: with the
enthusiastic support from artists such as David Bowie, he crossed the Channel and the Atlantic.
However, while everyone was waiting impatiently the following of "Timeless", Goldie had other plans: with "Saturnz Return" (1998) he came back with a concept album of 150 minutes (in its CD version), innovative, experimental and cleavable.
21 years later, his radical and innovative vision was taken up and adapted by many artists, from Carl Craig to Pete Tong. For the first time, thanks to London Music Stream label, "Saturnz Return" is finally ready to receive the critical reception it should have received when it was released. The avant-garde has become a reference.

Jay Lumen is in full force on his imprint Footwork and now has delivered “Rave Me”; an EP filled with startling, electrifying dance-floor weapons.

Kntrl, who splits his time between sundrenched Malta and the slightly less summery, but musically highly inspirational Berlin, present his OFF-debut.

Giving proof to the label's versatility, the EP's two originals are easily the most electronica-centered pieces on OFF so far.

Rich and lush soundscapes, tasteful songwriting and melancholic atmospheres provide for beautiful listening, both for a chilled afternoon at home or the afterparty.

Luca Agnelli, hot on the heels of celebrated releases on Soma, Drumcode or his own Etruria Beat imprint, delivers a smashing peaktime techno interpretation, reconnecting the EP to OFF's natural habitat, the club.

Almost two years of holding the breathe is enough - EXHALE now, techno from the island is coming back on our label. The success of the previous - Inhale EP from Owen Offset speaks by itself: entering several sales charts as well as having the breakthrough and receiving attention because of stated as a brilliant artist from many sides. The new - Exhale EP boasts now with three originals and two remixes, among others by DJ Rush
No doubt, the original track - Exhale is the next amazing piece of quality techno. Raw beats and a subtle arrangement are made for slamming the floors. Layered and arpeggiated synths are generating a shaded but positive mood. Nobody less than DJ Rush, the colorful figure who has been in the techno movement since the early years, delivers an outstanding remix. And it comes differently as expected: deep out of jungle, the percussions hypnotizing the techno tribes and bring it on the Major-way with a heavy knocking beat - welcome to Rush's Jungle Love remix. A second one is provided by label head honcho Dominik Vaillant with reliable stomping techno, as we are used to.
On black wax too, Owen Offset's - Breathe steps up to another level until the red lights burn. With hooks turning into acidic-like sounds, the heat is fully on for a wild freak-out final. Digitally bonus, the track - Golden Cat exposes to be real rave monster. Bang on!

A record to be enjoyed and listened to each detail in order to understand how all tracks communicate. To complete this cut there is also a remix, very dark in every detail and that complies with the conception of the vinyl meaning.

We welcome Mode_1 to Knotweed.

Hailing from Dublin, Ireland, he made a name for himself playing on a regular basis in his home city for the last couple of years as a resident of the Subject.Dublin parties, District 8 and more.

After hearing his track 'Oiche' on the Fiedeltwo Various Artists last year and getting to know each other during a long party in a dark place, it was just a a matter of time to get him on board. Robert crafted a super effective, hypnotic and spacey four-tracker E.P. called 'Final Approach'. All the necessary ingredients are perfectly mixed together to make you dance: clean kicks, polished basslines, incisive hi-hats, killer snares, percussive toms, dreamy pads and more. Each track produces an irresistible tension that will make your body move!

The second release on the blooming Miriam label comes from Scott G, who serves up a pair of superb minimal house tracks while up and coming Dutch artist, Joren Edwards finds himself on the remix.

Opener 'Elixir' is a bobbing number with silky synths and rubbery, underlapping drums that get you deep into their seductive rhythms. With its flickering vox snippets, sfx and driving groove this makes for a very special A side debut from Scott G.

'Sex Wax' comes with dreaming, drifting pads and ambiguous jazzy chords floating in and out. Icy female vocals add a layer of soul but with a strong underlying beat keeping the track moving forward with purpose.

Joren Edwards remixes this one into something more punchy and deriving, with wonky late night chords giving it an all encompassing cosmic feel. A sound he seems to provide with ease in the studio.

This is a classy stripped back EP once more from London based, Miriam. A well balanced affair here across the originals and remix, a mature release for a young label moving forward.

Helmed by Cristiano Cellu and Simone M, Be Apart is an emerging Italian label with a penchant the more discerning side of house and techno. Based in Florence, the imprint kicked off only recently courtesy of an an auspicious V/A that saw the aforementioned label heads featured alongside the likes of Nadia Popoff, Marko Nastic and Peter Makto & Gregor S. For their latest installment, Cellu and Simone M team up once more on the electrifying sounds of the Phaconto EP.
A boisterous cut of peak-time techno, the title track is an evocative track that's without doubt been made with the night's most passionate moments in mind. Although it starts off on a relatively innocuous tip, it soon morphs into a baseline-led banger, the likes of which is yearning to be played on a vast soundsystem. A surefire call for dancefloor destruction, 'Phaconto' offers a fitting insight into two producers who clearly have a clear understanding in the studio.
On the flip side of the vinyl-only release is Federico Grazzini's remix. Ibiza regulars will be all too aware of Grazzini's talents, and aside from being a resident at Zoo, he's also a resident at Florence's best known nightspot, Tenax. Grazzini keeps the original's eerie vibe intact on his interpretation, but adds some clever drums and a heightened sense of suspense that elevates it to further levels still. Be Apart's latest release sure ain't subtle - but that my friend, is exactly the point. If you're after something that's sure to move the floor this weather, then look no further.

LumièresLaNuit is glad to welcome Istanbul-based duo Bärtaub (Mutlu San & Batuhan Güler) for the 6th release of the label. As
in most of the duos, each of the members has his speciality. Whereas Mutlu focuses primarely on the music production, Batu is
known by Istanbul's house/techno aficionados as a restless DJ.
On the A side, Entropy reveals a moveable techno feast marked by a distanced horn. On the B-side, Rhizome features a bubbly
feeling with insistent though indistinct voice-like cuts led by a determined bassline and a lifting synth melody which travels to
various undetermined directions, proposing a fair groove for unfair times. The EP concludes with Strata, an amalgam of spoken
words, synths and clear beats offering a solid and relaxing mood that leads to a satisfying exit from this groovy forest.
Bärtaub's debut EP is called Rhizome (type of plant root) not without reason. Beats, melodies and bassline jump over, crawl
under and draw apart from each other in unexpected and non-hierarchical ways. In the end, they all come together in a harmonious
manner that creates an overall of excitingly playful forest-like atmosphere.
Mutlu San is a techno producer & DJ, sound designer and soundtrack artist from Istanbul. In 2014, hw sounddesigned the movie
Watch My Soundtracks - Anarchic Harmony, which will be released as a soundtrack album on his imprint Polyfisch Musik. In 2015,

resident DJ at Istanbul's Hütte club.
