All Vinyl New Releases - News

Vinyl will never die. That is the motto which EMBI Music is looking for. Therefore promptly after the first success in the beginning of the year, the next Limited Press Release is coming. This time straight from Chile, with well-known artists "Larry Peters" and UMHO.Remixes by Miguel Lobo and label boss Daniele Casa round off the package.

Sobriquet Records launches with the Japanese duo Liieberman and their EP The Things You Do To Me,accompanied by a Sinob Satosi Remix on the track the EP takes it name from.

Decoder Recordings is back with its second release. Swedish DJ and producer Mattias Fridell delivers strong driving techno on the EP called The Tasker. It contains four tracks, and the title track immediately discloses what's the deal with this EP: quality loop based techno with Fridell's signature clearly present. Current World Ecclesiarchy is the second track and on the same level as The Tasker, while 33 Endocytosis is a bit more funky. A pounding remix of that last track is delivered by The Binary Mind.

After the last Vinyl Release in 2009, Soap Records now welcomes the 12" lovers with a new blasting four track Ep.
The Maxi features on the A Side the Track ,,Pending" by Mikel, from which we already heard of on labels like Plastic City, Grove on and also Soap records. The track has a remarkable Glower and a bassline just fitting for the coming Winter. Almost unnecessary to mention that with the break, the dancefloor begins to escalate. Furthermore with a remix from Markus Fix we look forward to a artist which we already know through huge releases on Cecille and Cocoon Records. With his special Interpretation he brings it to finish with Hit-Potential.
Even if a track is still actual after 15 years, one should still re-publish it. No quote, much more a Statement which fits perfect with the EP, which we are handling with here. Mushrooms still sounds not a bit old fashioned, even after that long time.
Therefore on the B Side as a Re release the Meat vs Einzelkind Remix which already received a lot of remarks in 2008.
Meat is known as one of the owners of the Disclabel Freebase in Frankfurt, who also made his name with releases on Moonharbour and Souvenir. Together with Einzelkind he published many succesfull EP´s for Get Physical Music.
The project Einzelkind on his own has also releases on Playhouse and Kindisch. In their remix they first deconstruct the spoken Vocals and build up a stand-alone baseline with effectice Ride usage. The vocals get going after the middle of the track. This develops a remarkable Charme on its own. For the finish of the whole Labelchief Toni Rios, known through releases on Cocoon rec, Kompakt and Kling Klong, just to mention a few, and Chris Wood, known as Co-Producer and partner of Meat with releases on Moonharbour and Souvenir, coming through with the Track ,,Inception". A deep, groovy and straight-House-Stomper, which brings a great EP to a even greater finish.

This year irrepressible Italian born electronic producer Roberto Bosco returns with a new EP via his own imprint Last Drop Records, recently founded alongside with his partner in crime Kiny. This EP, that features four tracks, begins in media res with Sonorous Waves Part 1. An ambient intro track that creates the conditions for a mystic and celestial environment that pervades the whole release. Towards the end of the track a psychedelic reflection reshapes the sound: it is the light that filters, crystal clear and bright. The other track on the same side, Part 2, is more dancefloor oriented with a 4/4 beat and multi-layered structure made of typical industrial and techno sonorities. It's evident that they include Roberto Bosco's legacy: stormy emotions but with deep and melodic sound lines. Part 3 is another intro track, starting with spectral sounds that carefully develop into a full sci-fi ambience. Then, finally, part 4 arises with obscure and hypnotics sounds that match very slowly a more perpetual and gentle 4/4 that ends with ups and downs and a syncopated bass.

souls with a nice Detroit touched technotrack, Labelhead
Ascon Bates puts a pumping remix on it. Thats It !!!

Dropping his debut release on Super Flu's burgeoning Monaberry label, the shadowy but talented young force - whose name is also seemingly based upon the ill fated Victor Talking Machine company that produced the very first gramophone record players - fuses his feudal, rural experiences of Antarctic life with an arsenal of sound and texture on his refreshing 'Abby' EP.

Taking a strict mantra of 'digital is death', Viktor brings his expressive and deep sound through a selection of analogue instruments, galvanising his off kilter, alternative dance floor tomes with soundscapes and refreshing, naturalised washes of ambience and effect. Title track Abby - with its hollowed echoes and radar blips, sets the tone in minimal, ethereal fashion before gentle, crisp percussion brings tempo and rhythm, before snapping hi hats and bubbling, pulsating bass drive the track into the heart of any given dance floor.

Sven Tasnadi brings a hyper compressed analogue remix, stripping back the percussive elements and bringing the bass timbres to the fore, while Martin Waslewski comes up trumps on his equally ethereal take on Abby, but hardened by resonating drums, staunch kicks and a more perky, house purist approach on the original. Finally, Viktor awakens his machine once more Torrfel playing with fluctuating gusts of harmonics before acidic, hypnotic top line melodies bang heads with bubbling bass and stomping swing.

A year after his first release on the label, German deepsmith Sven Weisemann is back on Delsin with a sophomore effort entitled Separate Paths. Down for his moody outings on labels like Mojuba and Telrae, this new four track affair continues to mark out the man behind it as a master of atmosphere. Grooves floating in mid air and subtle melodies drift by like half remembered thoughts. Head music that also makes your body move. It may only be four tracks long, but this EP truly takes you on a journey somewhere far away from this world.

Crunchy, funky techno trax from the workshed of Ford Foster. Featuring a Mike Dunn remix for "Decisions' with two other versions for digital release. Early support from Hodge, Fabrice Lig etc

Insmonia is the new project that Mihalis & CJ will run... SO this is the point where everything start! Amazing Rave beats with a Demarzo remix... NOT to be missed!

The 7th release on Bond is the second release in Petter B's series called 'Roots'. On the A-side you find a 'Roots Pt. II' with a big yet simple hoover lead. Its simple structure together with its powerful breakdown and tons of dirt makes it a great weapon in a DJs arsenal. On the flip side there are two tracks, the outer one is called 'First Wave'. The track has a powerful low end and a rhythmic and minimalistic hook. It builds up almost like a wave and
plunges down into a break and begins its journey one more time.
The inner track on the b-side is a percussive monster. Its hook is made up of dubbed out percussive elements. After listening to it in a dark room for to long you can almost hear the tre drums starting to talk to you.
The label Bond is the brainchild of Swedish techno DJ and
producer Petter B. The concept of the label is 'music by DJs for DJs'. The label focuses on releasing tracks that enable the DJ, rather than the producer, to be creative. It is based on that special bond which is created every time a DJ combines tracks, loops and sounds live into something new and unique.

Fresh and exclusive from Butch's Watergate mix is a massive cut with his partner in crime, Hohberg titled The Spirit. Add a remix from the Swiss duo Adriatique and a tune from Butch flying solo and you have 'Songs About Unconsciousness". With 'The Spirit", Butch and Hohberg create a vivid and euphoric tour of emotions with a hypnotic looping lead, lush pads and a pulsating, relentless groove. It's a serious burner that makes you want to close your eyes and get lost in another world. In a perfect contrast yet staying true to the original, Adriatique deliver a stunning remix. Their take is a deeper, more melodic vibe, ripe with warm sub bass and rich organic drums perfect for a late night or early morning excursions. To round up the EP is Shahrzd. It's an acid trip laced with spaced out washes of Arabian winds, voices from a dream and infectious loops of percussion. In all 'Songs About Unconsciousness' is a beautifully crafted bundle from the master of dance floor psychedelia, Butch.

Very excited to welcome Jerome.C and I/0 Mulen to the Still Play Records family. SPRV003 includes two phenomenal originals from Jerome. On the B side includes a full length remix by I/0 Mulen, which is sure to move the dance floor. With both these signature sounds on one EP makes for a very special release. As always all feedback is welcome and we hope you enjoy ! Thank you for the support thus far & Cheers from Miami

Ever elusive duo Flight Facilities dropped a bombshell on unsuspecting, devoted fans, announcing the wholly unanticipated - and yet incredibly welcomed - debut album, 'Down to Earth". The production pair, best known for their string of popular club singles have done the unexpected, announcing a cracking new set of tunes to compliment their already impressive back catalogue, along with a headline world tour that will see the guys conquer their biggest headline shows to date, via the likes of The Enmore (Syd), The Forum (Melb), Webster Hall (NYC) and The Regent in LA. Some of the guests waiting in the departure lounge include the divine Ms Emma Louise, New York's most soulful comedian, Reggie Watts, a star turn from Melbourne's Owl Eyes, a foray into hip-hop with hotly tipped rapper Bishop Nehru, along with existing favourites like Micky Green and Giselle. These are just some of the highlights that will be coming out of the 'Down To Earth' carousel in the near future. Since their arrival in 2009, Flight Facilities have proven themselves to be one of electronic music's most consistently popular songwriting duos. Their first hit, Crave You, has become the unofficial soundtrack to summer parties from Sydney to Stockholm, and they've since deployed six successful singles, including the self-released slow-burner Clair De Lune, which went Gold in Australia.

Veränderung Ep is the first release of Forbidden Behaviours, new label signed Gabriele Carasco,a well known Producer and Sound Engineer at the Code Studio based in Berlin.
We could listen to him in his previous releases on Fasten Musique and Round Qube Musik and now with his own Label he introduces its minimal deep sound connected with his roots in classical piano and composition. The result is a unique grooving sound,turning into a warm ipnotic dimension

The swedish duo Bambook consisting of Eiad Sayegh and Hannes Netzell was surely one of last years whizzkids of the deep house genre.

Just over a year old now the duo have captured a unique signature sound: set to expressing a distinctive mood by working with acclaimed singers, classic house percussions, and emphatic baselines that triggers the right buttons.

Their "Humble Hearts" EP on Culprit and "Slip away" with Mennie on Noir have entered the underground dance floors by storm. After their first appearance on JEUDI on our "Friends" series we are happy to finally present their debut EP
"Tow the Line"

A1 Tow the Line feat. Name One
emerge yourself into this raw earthy brown house joint with sparkling piano arpeggios and a stunning vocal performance by Name One that reminded us a bit of the young Jim Morrison. Ride a bicycle in the fresh of the day with the reviving vibe of spring and enjoy!

B1 Täume feat. Name One
The world of enthusiastic and dirty grooves, stamping basslines: this one pushes you back to the roots of the real deep house. It's oldschool but it's also bringing you the freshness and uniqueness of the Bambook sound. Twee, a quality tune!

Authors of this work the italians Re_Named, creative and talented resident of one of the strongest national night-life realities, Zu::Club, based in pescara.

On the other side, the remixes of Sakro and Jack Wickham consistently run through the same vein, a current that leaves way of surrender, but never tragically lost.

2ND RELEASE FROM THE WONDERFUL MELBOURNE DEEPCAST GUYS 2 OF MELBOURNE'S FINEST TEAM UP FOR A JOINT RELEASE. COMES IN A FULL PICTURE SLEEVE.

Originally released on Wagon Repair in 2008, Deadbeat offers up a limited vinyl repress and digital release of one of his most critically acclaimed albums for the first time in 8 years.

From Resident Advisor:

"Roots and Wire brings Deadbeat's Scott Monteith project full circle. (The album) is something of a return to his musical roots as well, being infinitely dubbier and more ethereal'

'That's not to say that Roots and Wire doesn't pack any heat. The album may kick off with two slower numbers, but the arrival of the next trio of tracks turns the tide. All three tease, building patiently before showing their true colours. Tikiman/Paul St. Hilaire opens and closes the album with two impeccable vocals, conveying a feet-up reefer madness vibe rather than hedonistic/hell-for-leather. The title track caps off the album with brisk dubstep beats and ~scape-styled melodica.'

'Roots and Wire succeeds because the different intensities and beat structures of each track offer a more dynamic ebb and flow, all bound together by a homogenous dub reggae spirit. Monteith's refusal to aim for moody, vacuous postures aids in letting the whole thing breathe—and helps to give back some of the life and energy he puts into it. Being so good, the only complaint you'll have is that isn't just a little bit longer."

Puss is a new label from HNNY and Kornél Kovács, pushing club ready dance tracks to tenderhearted discjockeys around the world. On the label's third release, HNNY once again steps up with an r'n'b-infused, melancholy house epic. The latest Puss release arrives as a single-sided 12'' and as always, each record comes with a real, unique human kiss mark.

A new discovery of undug beatz coming from fresh an clean clear producers.
Side A is carried by Nacho Bolognani musically pristine method, emotional dancefloor pieces seasoned with minimal rhytms.
Side B goes to Rodrigo Dp straight up beatz, chords and pads layered into low end sincopatics of bass , kicks and Toms.

Ovidii is the new rising start on MAterial vinyl series, tracks that massively played by Jamie Jones and Richy Ahmed! Grab this Wax only tunes!

Samurai Horo starts 2016 with the second part of Pact Infernal's concept release 'The Descent'. Split into 2 sections, both releases are collectively themed around the infamous 'Inferno' section of Dante Alighieri's 'Divine Comedy' poem from the 14th century. 'Inferno' is an allegory telling of the journey of Dante through Hell, guided by the Roman poet Virgil In the poem, Hell is depicted as nine circles of suffering located within the Earth. Allegorically, the Divine Comedy represents the journey of the soul toward God, with the Inferno describing the recognition and rejection of sin.

This dramatic setting is the perfect canvas for the music in 'The Descent' (Chapter II).Subtle ghostly echoes hang ominously over the entire release. Cruelly menacing with a perfected subtle brood dominating the overall atmosphere, Pact Infernal use percussion and mutated chants to massage their driving rhythms.

Preferring to stay anonymous has given Pact Infernal the ability to create an other worldly musical environment devoid of pre conceptions and human imagery attachments. Their sound has attracted people like Lucy from Stroboscopic Artefacts (who remixed The Descent Chapter I) and Samuel Kerridge. We predict many more converts to the Pact Infernal sound with the release of Chapter II into the world.

Support from: Ancient Methods, Bill Kouligas, Logos, AnD, Cassegrain, Marco Shuttle, Cio D'Or, Lakker, Inigo Kennedy, Manni De, Francois X, Edit Select, Ntogn, Pfirter and more
"Absolutely amazing and stunning. Genius work." - Lucy.

Spanish rising talent Piek has been making music for some
years now, his collaboration with UNER on Diynamic put him on
the electronic map, getting one of the most original and
special sounds of Spain. After his successful WYWFM ep, he's
back to Sincopat finding the balance between melodic music
and dance-floor. In this EP he presents two faces from two
different cultures: Lazarusman is a South-African poet, and
Bjerk Peterson is a Mexican musician with Latin influences.
Piek joins Lazarusman on Not Afraid, a journey with fat synths
and epic melodies. With the English man DeMarzo on the
remix duties, his interpretation proves that he is really in shape
right now. One More Night is another winner track, which goes
hypnotic thanks to the powerful bass and a magic voice as
the hook. Daniel Kyo offers a different and a more personal
techno reinterpretation, stunning and as emotive as the
original. Enjoy!

A great remix package from Billy Nasty's Electrix label
Very limited vinyl pressing

One of the UK's longest running Electro acts, Transparent Sound feature on the next EP from Billy Nasty's Electrix label, with three other mainstays of the scene, Larry McCormick, Mr Velcro Fastener and Sync 24 all offering their remix skills.

Transparent Sound formed by Orson Bramley and Martin Bundock in 1994 have over 30 releases including 2 albums under their belt, many of which were self-released on their own label or Electrix, plus appearances on Solid Groove, Crayon, Colin Dale's Abstrakt Dance (their 'Freaks Frequency EP' for the label is exchanging hands for upwards of £150!) and Exceptional who released their 'Hair Cut Fantasy' album in 2005. Not ones to churn out releases relentlessly (quality over quantity comes to mind) they have nevertheless kept a steady flow to this day. Recently their 'Punk Mother Fucker' 12' was re-released by Germany's Pressure Traxx who have also been home to the likes of Einzelkind and Ricardo Villalobos. Currently they're working on a remix for Alpha 606 (Interdimensional Transmissions) as well as a brand new Transparent Sound live set, which they're looking forward to bringing to clubland.

'No Call From New York' opens with their Acid Mix, a unique track with a punchy start that gradually allows for a pause of experimentation before the heavy bass and tough beats kick back in, with twisted electronics aplenty.

Onto the remixes and Larry McCormick, best known for releases on Datapunk, Satamile, Psi49net and his own label Monotone, whether under his own name or Exzakt, delivers a dappled and jagged-edged remix that doesn't falter. Finnish duo Mr Velcro Fastener have been creating Electro since 1997 and released their first EP a year later on their own Tie Entertainment. Further releases have followed on the likes of i220 and Electrix. Here they lay the bassline heavy and add vocal flourishes to their emotive rendition. Finally the London-based Cultivated Electronics and Scand man, Sync 24's remix heads straight into deep, jackin' Electro territory with a precise blow.

Sixth installment on the 10 years series featuring tracks by VRIL, OIRI, Eduardo de la Calle and a special collab from Andreas Tilliander and Svreca.

The Berlin-based label 'Forbidden Behaviours' welcomes aboard the romanian talent Zefzeed which has previously released on labels such as All Inn, BodyParts, Untold Stories just to name a few. The EP is composed by three tracks that showcase perfectly the refined ears and tastes of the artist. This is a must for any serious vinyl pusher! Don't sleep on this one..

New vinyl label from 19th-century health spa town in Poland. Debut release is from Wroclaw duo - Astro Buhloone with 4004 (Faces / Quintessentials) & Tanzlife (Local Talk / Let's Play House) remixes. Vinyl only, limited copies.

Expect a mixture of organic beats, mixed with an interstellar groove and finished with a touch of a space dust. An outer space voyage for your mind, body and soul - Let the astro travelling begin.

Early support from: Jimpster, Nachtbraker, Shur-I-Kan, Frits Wentink, Dan Shake, Tooli, Bas Amro, Daniel Drumz, Sebastien Vorhaus, Cassio Kohl

High Plains is the duo of Scott Morgan and Mark Bridges.

Morgan, based in the Canadian Pacific Northwest, is predominantly known for his drifting, textured soundscapes released under the pseudonym LOSCIL.

Bridges is an accomplished, classically-trained cellist residing in Madison, Wisconsin.

The two met in Banff, Alberta while they were simultaneously there on residencies at the Banff Centre for the Arts in 2014. They first collaborated when Bridges contributed cello parts to Morgan's generative music app ADRIFT, recorded in Seattle in 2015.

In early 2016, the duo embarked on a collaborative set of compositions in the oxygen thin air of Wyoming, spending two weeks holed up in a refurbished school house in the town of Saratoga, where this album was recorded.

Inspired by Schubert's Die Winterreiseand the rolling landscapes of
their surroundings, the collaboration culminated in a collection of recordings that evoke a shadowy, introspective and dizzying winter journey.

Cinderland takes cues from classical, electronic and cinematic
musical traditions but is mostly a product of the rugged, mythic landscape; vast and sprawling with a wild, uncertain edge.

The recording was made with a portable studio and all sounds were sourced on site, most notably from Bridges' cello, the resident Steinway D piano, and field recordings collected from the local soundscape.

The results are a site specific, wide scope view of thehigh valley terrain the duo worked in, a mix of analog and digital, neoclassical and modern electronic sounds, a complemental series of tracks to become absorbed in, a truly deep listening experience.

The cover art forCinderland was created by London-based artist, Peter Liversidge.

another ultrafunky EP completed with remixes from Siwell and Namito

JFDR - the latest project from young and prolific Icelandic songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Jófríður Ákadóttir (Samaris, Pascal Pinon, Gangly) - releases her debut solo full length album Brazil, set for release in Spring 2017 through her own label White Sun Records. Brazil was recorded in New York in 2016 and co-produced by legendary multi-instrumentalist Shahzad Ismaily (Laurie Anderson, Lou Reed, Tom Waits, Yoko Ono, etc.).

Brazil sees a blend of cyclical guitar parts, soft minimal soundscapes, and poetic wanderings of a journey that ends where it began. Drawing from classical, folk, and electronic backgrounds, JFDR amalgamates the sounds of changing seasons, her voice a current that moves through rough seas to smooth waters. But perhaps JFDR shines the most in her capacity as a wordsmith, employing rich imagery to evoke the subtle emotions embedded in each song.

"I got obsessed with her band Samaris a few years ago, and then it was amazing to see her do her own stuff." - Björk in the Guardian selecting JFDR as one of her artist inspirations.

The beautifully shot black and white video for 'Airborne' was created by Timothée Lambrecq with direction from Jófríður.

"'Airborne' was one of the first songs Shahzad and I recorded in New York', says Jófríður. One afternoon I confessed I had never played with a drummer before, so Shahzad immediately called up his friend, Liturgy drummer Greg Fox. After an hour or so of intense Casio wailing and Greg drumming so fast it was borderline droning, it was suggested that Greg had a go at this track we'd recorded earlier that day, a half written song named 'Airborne'. It took about 10 minutes, Greg nailed it.
The result is this half programmed, half live drum performance, carefully but effortlessly stitched together by Shahzad, merged with my fragile piano break up ballad. The track was later blessed by De La Soul's Maseo who stopped by the studio and listened. He said it was dope."

'Airborne' follows the video for the evocatively atmospheric and mesmerising 'White Sun' directed by Brendan Canty, released at the end of 2016 as the first teaser for Brazil.

This compilation comes on four LP's with a total of sixteen tracks. More than twenty artists in the electronic music scene surrounding the Neustadtmusik label participated on this project. New artist collaborations were formed, knowledge exchanged and experiments tried. These sixteen tracks are as diverse and interesting as they are to us a valuable outcome of the project. From Chillout to rather straight Techno, there is a wide variety of electronic music styles represented on the LP's. Hence It is worth to take a listen to that compilation for all lovers of electronic music.
