Giuseppe Ielasi is an electro-acoustic musician based in Milan. He runs the micro label Senufo Editions. Originally released in 2013, Error Broadcast re-issued 'Stunt (Appendix)' just recently (ebc028). Here Giuseppe Ielasi delivers a highly unique take on beat music.

After a hiatus of three years Inventing Masks is a new moniker the producer uses to publish his self-titled debut LP. 'Inventing Masks' comprises six concentric but slightly out-of-balance sound sculptures, equally inspired from generative composition, ambient music, and hip hop.

The dubwise duo moving into more intuitive terrain. Part 1 beats its wings and scurries about in the undergrowth of a chattering Jungle; 2 moves into the light with kosmische intrepidity.

When Matt Karmil released Reverse Peephole in 2013 it was clear we had a startling and creative new talent in our midst. Fast forward a few years and Karmil has released on the best taste making labels in the game, with 12''s notched up for Beats in Space, Studio Barnhus and of course Idle Hands - his debut for the Bristol label, Play It / Do It / Say It, having appeared in the summer of 2015, providing leading DJs with head turning staples for their sets, blazing its three tracks across many a dancefloor. As Idle Hands enters 2016, what better way to start than with a new LP from Karmil Originally the tracks on this album were sent as a bundle to label boss Chris Farrell, who was looking to pick a track for a single release. Listening to the music as a whole, it became clear to the Idle Hands man that it needed to be released as such. This is the result: 13 tracks presented just as they were originally sent over in a zip. This is IDLE033: The sound of an accomplished dancefloor producer stretching out. These aren't straight dance tracks, neither is this a ponderous ambient LP. This is vivid, vital electronic music for modern times. Tracks to cut through the monotony of depressingly average house and techno releases. The music shimmers with warmth and humanity, a testament to Karmil's personality as well as his skill as a producer. One can sense in the tracks that this a musician who has travelled and absorbed much along the way: Long drawn out winter nights in Sweden with the Studio Barnhus crew. Years spent in Cologne with its distinguished electronic sound, a city which has given so much to the world with Kompakt and more. Last but not least you can sense Karmil's upbringing here in the UK, the roughness and rudeness all added to the mix. Idle Hands has never been a label to follow trends or to take the easy path. It has strived to keep people guessingand to remain in awe and wonder at new music being produced. InMatt Karmil it has found a producer whoembodies this notion.

This picture disc is packed with even more talent and explosive beatz. Debut releases from Mantra, Antidote and Verb returns with a fresh track for the headz.

This release sees the return of FBD Project known for many killer tracks including The Core.

The moment EATBRAIN followers have been eagerly anticipating for a year has arrived, with BILLAIN landing in full force in the form of his 'Colonize' EP. A true master of Neurofunk, these 2 tracks demonstrate the full might and depth of Billain's exquisite production ability. Expanding upon the sprawling Sci-Fi landscape that has its origins in the highly acclaimed 'Colossus' EP on Bad Taste Recordings, the 'Colonize' EP takes things to an entirely new level. Incredible visual artwork from Marvel artist Enis Cisic and resident Eatbrain designer Laszlo Tringli, is threaded through with the continuation of the operatic space narrative tying the tracks together into a concept as epic as music itself.

Title track 'COLONIZE' lures listeners into Billain's otherworldly realm with 2 perfectly balanced sweeping chords, instantly transporting them to a faraway planet. Breaking the calm, an unmistakable Billain bassline erupts, before breaking down into a deliciously dynamic and scattered build-up injected with pure nervous anticipation. The Neuro assault that follows is as devastating as it is immaculately produced.

'FEED FOR SPEED' is undoubtedly one of the most high-octane tracks to land this year, finally placed into the public fresh from having unleashed pure havoc across Europe's largest DnB festivals. Representing a refined slice of turbocharged percussion, wrapped in the post-apocalyptic exhaust fumes of raging synths and an unending build-up of pure adrenaline-laced excitement. Prepare yourselves for an unforgiving assault on the senses, from a producer in the depths of carving a very unique path through the electronic landscape.

Anyone with access to the internet probably already knows that a new EP by Burial appeared as a download release on the Hyperdub website a couple of days ago. A vinyl version is in production, but at the time of writing we are unable to confirm an exact release date while quality control checks are still being completed. Watch this space for more definite news, hopefully very soon. In the meantime, the pre-order hotlines are open. Featuring three new tracks pressed on high grade 180g vinyl for optimum sound reproduction, and running beyond 30 minutes, the 'Kindred EP' is an ambitious work that pushes further into the unique musical territory Burial occupies.

Lp with Deluxe Printed Sleeve +Mp3 Download - Latest album from Pat Murano's Decimus project - part of a series of 12 LPs dedicated to the zodiac of Decimus Magnus Ausonious - Founding member of No Neck Blues Band Tracklist LP: A Untitled - B Untited Short info: How do you deal with the world's nightmarish montage of bad news, the glut of information that triggers feelings of futility and insanity One way to cope is to plunge deeper into the madness, at least temporarily, for a dip into the healing pool of catharsis. Few people in music today provide a more immersive alternate reality on record to combat our own horrible one than Decimus (former No-Neck Blues Band guitarist/synth player Pat Murano). Musical categories dissolve in the mind as you try to ascertain what's going on in Decimus' sonic universe. As with some of the most advanced and individualistic musicians on the planet (Coil, Demdike Stare, Mnemonists, Nurse With Wound), Murano instinctively generates sounds that appear to bypass normal listening responses and flow directly to the subconscious. Deep immersion in Decimus 7 leads the listener to a disturbing, mind-altering realm. Every aspect of these two epic sidelong pieces feels as if it's controlled by a malevolent super-being hellbent on subverting conventional notions of music.

And it All Ends Here (feat. Antonello Salis) Short info: As both a producer and the helmsman of the Outis Music label, Dino Sabatini has carved out a distinctive musical style that shows a great reverence for both ancient archetypes and future possibilities for change (see, for example, his Mnemosyne' co-release with Edit Select, in which each track is dedicated to a separate Greek goddess). With one foot planted in a mysterious past and the other foot planted in a world yet to arrive, Sabatini's works are carefully realized emotional journeys that intertwine shimmers of optimism with undercurrents of poignancy or nostalgia. His latest full-length offering, Omonimo' (that's homonym' for non-speakers of Italian), brings all of this to fruition on a record that demands (and rewards) deep listening. After a pulsating Foreword' massages the mind and prepares it for the story that Sabatini is about to tell, Choosing the Right Way' blankets the listener in a rainy day ambience punctuated with tantalizingly distant vocal refrains and nimble piano. At once solemn and erotic, it sets the pace perfectly for a set of tracks that have a cohesive feel, yet all use their own sonic vocabulary and color palette to tell unique variations on the story. It's My Forest,' for example, sticks to the reliable trip-hop / mid-tempo framework while introducing quick snatches of tabla and signaling, hovering synth arpeggios. Follow Me' retains the lush synth pads and cycling percussive loops of that track, and then things take a turn for the slightly darker with The Unexpected,' a sudden uptick in percussive punch and apprehensive intensity.

Beginning in 1974, based in New Zealand, the sound-performance group From Scratch used an evolving array of percussion instruments to create a distinctive rhythmic music, texturally rich and tonally sumptuous, making use of found and repurposed objects as well as custom-made percussion instruments.
And while the music has a sophisticated, fluid and intelligent polyrhythmic drive, pitched percussion features prominently, using microtunings and just intonation in tightly structured pieces which evolve and mutate, making use of intricate interlocking of melodic and rhythmic elements. Given their Pacific identity, one can find similarities with a number of Asian Pacific musics, their music will appeal to open-eared listeners interested in such musics, and it will also intrigue admirers of the early
work of Steve Reich and Terry Riley. Formed by Phil Dadson on his return to New Zealand following his late-60s involvement in the U.K.
with Cornelius Cardew's Scratch Orchestra, Auckland's From Scratch embraced an egalitarian ethic, focusing on co-operation, integration,
and the union of opposites. These principles are clearly heard in the music here, with all the players interlocking, with the music exploring and exploding the polarities of melody/rhythm, local/global, group/individual, minimal/maximal. These four tracks, ranging from 1974 to 1982 are propulsive and yet serene, percussive and yet
sweetly tonal, and toe-tappingly alert, an immersive and distinctive soundworld. All tracks here are newly remastered from the original
master tapes, "Passage" was their first recording and is previously unissued.

Debut of the Hit+Run Presents "Road Kill" compilation series. Volume 1 includes 14 exclusive & vinyl unreleased! tracks by the Los Angeles underground and beyond, like The Gaslamp Killer, Mono/Poly , Jeremiah Jae, Mndsgn, Computer Jay, Ras G, Daedelus, J.Rocc,Kutmah, Zackey Force Funk, and more... Tip!!

Inigo Kennedy's Vaudeville LP was undoubtedly one of Token's highlights of 2014. Now, following hot on the heels of Antigone's twisting 'Cantor Dust' EP and Ø (Phase)'s sweltering 'Tunnel Vision/Internal Conflict' 12", 'Requiem', a standout cut from the album has been resurrected across an all-star remix EP from the label. The release sees some of the most notable figures operating in the techno scene today turn their hand to the track, from sonic explorer Efdemin to Birmingham veteran Karl O'Connor, aka Regis.

The original's twisted melodies are beautifully fragmented across Efdemin's opening offering. The Berlin based artist drops the mesmeric riff down a few semitones, unleashing them alongside nitro-charged rhythms. Dial-tone bleeps and razor sharp hats are set in contrast to the original's sleek, melancholic synthesiser-play, vaulting forward swelteringly intense.

As the EP progresses the interpretations seem to get progressively more bent out of shape. Raster Noton mainstay Kangding Ray for example provides a skittering, paranoid recast of the track. Groaning, ethereal soundscapes hover imposingly above thudding, broken-beat rhythms and jagged hi-end drones. Regis on the other hand harnesses the original's bulging low-end, putting his characteristically rugged stamp on the track. Whilst an ominous low-end throbs in the blackness, vapourous atmospherics are put into full-effect alongside a warped riff, steadily decaying as the track progresses.

Closing the release, Dasha Rush pushes the original as far as it can possible go, bringing discordant piano melodies and distant voices together in a thoroughly disorienting reinterpretation. The Russian born artist is patient in her building of the track, it is not until past the two minute mark that she lets booming kicks and stuttered hi-hats fire.

The artists selected for the project have been curated with much care - pushing 'Requiem' to its outer limits and re-imagining the track in ways difficult to conceive of before. However given Token's history of bringing to light the most diverse corners of dancefloor music, maybe nothing less should have been expected.

Misanthrop isn't just about the music; twelve years the producer has spent on the audio and video components of his artistic vision. Taking inspiration from the world's murkiest corners (which translates through a conundrum of rolling, methodical progression and unapologetic beat patterns) the Hamburg based producer has become infamous.

Combining every aspect of his wide ranging digital skills, his latest 'Collapse EP', due to be released on internationally renowned Ram Records, presents you with a multi-platform shock to the senses.

'Collapse' begins on a note that's carried throughout the entire EP. Nastily slick, propelled forward on distorted bass and sliced up metallic hi-hats, it's diced up by imposing sample snippets; a hulking stack of technicality. A full-frontal opener, don't expect the following three tracks not to follow its precedent.

Up next is 'Fragment', a precarious, angry yet convoluted track that proves Misanthrop's refusal to take a conventional approach. Filtering through and following the ambush dynamic, stocky reverb pulls you down a shoot of clanking, industrial production that only momentarily allows you to fully absorb its driving force.

'Rotor' and 'Attack' roll out in quick procession, each providing an even deeper exploration into Misanthrop's vast production repertoire. Whilst 'Rotor', having lined sets over the past twelve months, spins underneath layers of snapping percussion, pulsating subs and blaring kick drum, 'Attack' takes a different approach. In your face, obtrusive yet able to lead you onto any dancefloor, it flicks through a higher frequency whilst being underpinned by pumping drum patterns and eventually flipped with a subliminal vocal snippet.

So, making a guest appearance on the Ram imprint, it's time to immerse yourself in the darkly stooped world of Misanthrop. And if there's one record to get you ready for a weekend of drum & bass, this is certainly it.

Following 2013's ubiquitous smash 'Untitled' and last year's heavyweight 'Erotic Discourse' remixes, Paul Woolford returns to the Hotflush fold with a double-headed cerberus, 'Orbit / MDMA'.

Flexing signature versatility, Woolford goes from heads-down to hands-in-the-air in the flip of a record: a dance floor locked in to the twisted sirens of acid rave (Orbit) experiences a sudden belly rush as it collectively comes up to piano breakdowns and female chant (MDMA). Towering and physical, the record epitomises Paul Woolford's enduring popularity.

After finding a kitten named lola in an abandoned
Rimowa suitcase, Pearson Sound (aka David
Kennedy) thought it only right to wheel the creature
home and write a track about the experience. And
that's just for starters - if you love the Shepard tone
and powerful drums then you're sure to fall in love
with 'Power Drumsss'. On the flip, Pearson pays
tribute to one of the UK's best-selling confectionary
products....

SBTRKT announces details of his much-anticipated second album. The London-based producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist releases 'Wonder Where We Land' on Young Turks, and it's a gleefully collaborative affair, featuring lots and lots of Sampha, as ever, along with old friend Jessie Ware. There's also a track with Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend and A$AP Ferg appears on the final track !

- 'Wonder Where We Land' follows his critically acclaimed eponymous debut album and a recent interim release of six instrumentals called 'Transitions', which joined the creative dots between the first and second albums.

- Since the release of his debut album in 2011, SBTRKT has cemented his role as one of the most acclaimed electronic artists and performers around. What began as praise in his hometown of London has now reached to every corner of the globe.

- SBTRKT's captivating and ever changing live show will be touring the world for the rest of the year.

Incredible, idiosyncratic and obscure early 80s French futurist DIY project led by Jean-Luc Aime.
This feature-length album of elusive recordings marks the bone fide axis point where Zeuhl-Skool meets synth pop, dark ambient and early electro culled from rare vinyl and disparate cassette co-op releases for this first ever LP release.

A lost art-ifact from a micro genre where ZED, Eskaton and Heldon share outernational tape space with Vox Populi! The Normal, Colin Potter and Luc Marianni this record occupies a unique place on the shelves of fans of early DIY electro and post punk while ticking the boxes of 80s VHS OST enthusiasts and the growing interest in European cassette zine projects. These melodic macabre tape experiments fuse multi-track cassette experiments with home-made special effects at the hand of an accomplished multi-instrumentalist working on the outer reaches of disenfranchised progressive-pop and reluctant techno defining then deconstructing genres that have yet to exist. Fuelled by futurist gothic imagery and operating on a parallel plain to his European and American contemporaries there are few artists like Stabat Stable and virtually none more enigmatic. This benchmark record is the first signpost to a darker part of your musical want-list as the invisible glue for fans of the aforementioned anti-genres. File under Not Yet'.

A year in the making, Lionheart is the fearless new record from Crazylegs' smiling assassin Ziro - the first artist to release on our label way back in 2012, a meticulous producer revered among his peers, now confidently pushing forward with a sound like nobody else. Pooling an array of influences ranging from early days selling drum & bass in a record store in his hometown, formative production forays into dubstep and finding his groove in techno, a growing interest in rap and grime have pulled his beatmaking into an alien place in the last couple of years. Coupled with a longstanding knack for intense atmospherics and ice-cold synth lines, you end up with perhaps the most striking record we've ever put out. This is where Ziro embodies the essence of Crazylegs - a drive to experiment and an ambition to deliver the unexpected. Title track Lionheart sets out the mission statement in no uncertain terms - a breathless six and a half minutes of thunderous, fractured drums and shimmering trance riffs. Strafe brings Belfast madman Bloom into the fray, trademark hydraulic percussion creating a wonderful hybrid. London City Warlord Riko Dan spits a bag of violence on Dun Talk, a move into more straightforward rap beat territory. Distance provides a moment of blissful calm before Rapture closes the record with its grimiest workout. Lionheart is the sound of an incredibly talented producer marking out his territory - cinematic but still primed to pummel dancefloors. It arrives October 30th on digital and a 12' picture sleeve vinyl edition shortly after.

It's been two years since Tagwell Woods first appeared on W.T. Records. His rich and refreshingly unique techno style caught the ears of the faithful. Finally, finally, the Londoner is back on vinyl with six pieces of his original brand of machine music. And the wait is worth it. Tracks like "Christmas" and "Training" pulsate with feeling. Others like "Rabbit Society" and "Chance" build on that emotion. Crisp percussion and heartening strings are weaved as lush moments and textures unfurl. The 12" is incredibly deep and flooded with sentiment. But don't be mistaken into thinking Tagwell Woods deals in weight, instead it's his lightness of touch that sings. "Tied Waves" is fragile and delicate, whispering before blossoming into being. The finale, the beautifully uplifting "Velocity", has that same deftness. Mecca defies classification. Electronica. Techno. House. Acid. All are lovingly melted together to produce an absorbing and soulful second release, a release which is testament to the talent of this fledgling musician. Limited to 300 copies, 180 gr vinyl.

Sand / Layna is the first full-length solo release by Canadian sound artist crys cole. While cole is known to many through her collaborative work with a host of Canadian artists and internationals such as Oren Ambarchi, Keith Rowe and James Rushford, this LP presents the first opportunity for an extended appreciation of her singular approach to amplified sound. Using contact and other microphones to amplify her interactions with small objects and the surfaces on which they rest, cole's work exists in a lineage of heavily amplified 'small sound' that stretches back to Cage's Cartridge Music. cole's approach to these materials and techniques is distinguished by its single-mindedness: rather than simply searching for interesting or attractive sounds, her performances attempt to illuminate the sonic properties of the specific objects and amplification devices she uses. Devoid of looping and complex processing, the sonic outcome of her work always retains an audible link to the handling of microphones and what they amplify. The awkward and sometimes even 'ugly' sounds of manipulated microphones and recording equipment thus sit comfortably alongside the mysterious crackle of amplified salt and the deep, musical resonance of a rubbed tabletop.

Debut album from swedish Joy Boks

KETEV is the realm in which Berlin based sound artist Yair Elazar Glotman employs his unique ambient technoid soundscapes to explore the balance between darkness and light, fragility and strength, and tension and release. 'Traces of Weakness' follows up the solo contrabass LP 'Études' for Subtext records, and continues to expand on the themes explored on previous KETEV albums for Where To Now and Opal Tapes. 'Traces of Weakness' was recorded at EMS Stockholm using their Buchla Modular Synth, and processed with reel-to-reel tape manipulations including personal archived field recordings. The sleeve photography comes courtesy of Yair's father, the artist Yehoshua Shuka Glotman.

The album is divided into four long expressions, moving through a cycle of melancholy, destruction, urgency, fragility, and total calm. 'Traces of Weakness' opens with 'Probabilities of a stranger's eyes', hypnotising the listener into a state of mantra, where cyclical bass plumes slowly strut alongside what sounds like processed healing bowls and subtle modular tones. Closing on a segment of total reflective calm this opening gambit truly does set itself up as preparation for the descent.

The brooding ambience continues with the title track 'Traces of Weakness', opening with a Stars of The Lid esque panorama of ambience and beauty, throughout the piece the vibe becomes increasingly ominous and foreboding, feelings of fragility and space slowly evolve into a filmic atmosphere of oddly comforting tension and uncertainty - it is this changing of emotional states within sound where KETEV totally comes into his own - sharing similar motifs as artists such as Tim Hecker and Tomas Koner, but continuously injecting an array of very human and emotional responses into his scapes of evolving ambience.

'Linger' finds KETEV in full on rhythmic dread mode, where 12 minutes of churning techno mechanism forces the build of tonal dread into a new zone. 'Linger' showcases what KETEV does best - taking the stripped back, minimal pulse and building layer upon layer of sound and tension to create an ecstatic, all encompassing melee of rapture and release.

We end with 'Levels of Chaos' to complete the cycle, a true comedown from the heightened spirit of 'Linger'. Themes explored in the opening track return, but with new perspective and confidence, the scene has a newness to it but is totally destroyed, there is melodic hope that pierces the ambience, bringing to mind the darker moments of John Hassell's otherworldly compositions. KETEV often leaves the listener with a brutal and cold parting stare, and 'Traces of Weakness' is no different, another enthralling and escapist experience and essential addition to the Where To Now catalogue.

* Need For Mirrors return to Horizons for the Monument EP. Featuring a star collaboration with Concord Dawn "Curtains" where electro meets liquid drum and bass, liquid is the centre of these 3 deep cuts.
All tracks have had serious support from the scene.

Fourth in the Nightwind Records Cassettetape series. Dozing Rhodes jazz and spellbinding synthesizer trips. Comes in the usual luxurious vintage c64/zxspectrum style microVHS video game box . Also includes free professional dome sticker and "Nomad Ninja" Microzine/map. The cosiest drugged up Christmas album for this winter!

You wake from sleep, the door closes by itself and the walls run with slime and rain. A shadow moves, almost familiar, welcoming and simultaniously intimidating. The candle flickers and snuffs out. A noise. Your torch is dying. Something takes your hand. Long fingernails and old skin. You mark the floor, chant the incantation. Together. In the first of our split series we present two modern artists who's imaginations know no limit. Abstract drones, anchient machinery, neon cities within the shadow of the overfiend. Heading up Side A is the legendary Cristoph De Babalon, whose work in the late 90s on Digital Hardcore and his own CFET proved to be some of the most unique and timeless of the period. Seperated by European boarders, the reigns are taken by Triames, cutting the rhythms to explore techno as a more abstract concept, beautifully detailed work in between Lustmord and Emptyset. Giallo Disco is proud to present 'Invocation Of The Demon Twin Vol. 1' possibly the most sinister and atmospheric release to date, and also one of our most special. Art by Eric Lee.

From Leaving Records, the debut album from drummer Deantoni Parks - John Cale, Sade, The Mars Volta, Flying Lotus collaborator.

The relationship between music and technology is always evolving ... but true music can not exist without a soul. Some extraordinary musicians augment their natural talents with technology, adopting its benefits to fuel their own singular vision, and that is the basis of Deantoni Parks' debut album Technoself.

Parks is one of the finest drummers working today, displaying a sleek and intuitive balance between raw rhythmic physicality and machine-like precision. He can play on one hand what many great drummers could not achieve with two - which he does frequently. His skills have seen him perform with artists such as John Cale, Sade, The Mars Volta, Flying Lotus and his own boundary-pushing group KUDU, among others. Notable collaborations aside, Parks is an artist in his own right, constantly in motion and expanding towards something new.

On Technoself, you hear Parks totally in control. Three of the tracks were recorded live in a session at Dub Lab, the others in a studio. In his own words, "The sound result of Technoself is a digestion of sounds being refined, filtered, and re-arranged in the time period of the average thought." There are no overdubs or loops on this record. The sound is that of "segmented, split-second curated soundscapes atop a highway of refined, war-drum rhythms." The album plays out like a percussive crash course winding through Parks' diverse influences and moods, where the only constant is Deantoni's unmistakable sense of movement. In this case, the most important piece of technology turns out to be the human body.

Valleys, ravines, crags, inaccessible mountain peaks, abyss. Since times immemorial, stark mountain landscape has always been humankind's inspiration and a constant reference point for many generations of exploratory artists. 'Ridges' is a result of a creative encounter between veteran of improvised avant-electronics Max Loderbauer (among others, co-creator of Sun Electric, member of Moritz von Oswald Trio, and frequent collaborator of Ricardo Villalobos) and spiritus movens of Warsaw-based label Recognition Jacek Sienkiewicz. Meeting takes place not only on the level of investigating pure sound and building complex structures, but also on the level of fascination with mountainside aura and mystique that is common to both artists: Alps (Loderbauer) and Tatra (Sienkiewicz), as well as with the vocal cultures of communities inhabiting theese areas. Deeply introspective and individualistic confrontation between two peer sensibilities and imaginative worlds gave birth to two separate compositions in the vein of contemplative electronic music at it purest. Both timeless and futuristic, soundscapes imagined by Loderbauer and Sienkiewicz could serve as a perfect antidote to turbo-speed contemporaneity with its tweets, social networks, neuroses and unavoidable anxieties. This music is created without paying attention to current trends and tendencies, although it simultaneously takes its due place among the works of noble pioneers, from Popol Vuh's Transilvanian hymns in Herzog's 'Nosferatu' and Lionel Marchetti's concrete report from the glacier, to Simon Fisher Turner's Himalayan soundtracks. More than 20 minutes of material contained in 'Ridges' is a document of research passions of both musicians, while for the listeners it could serve as an invitation for imaginative sound journeys, but also for a bit of research that could - and should! - be undertaken on one's own.

Phon.o, the boy with the dot in his name and the dubby background, started to play records with his buddy Apparat in the
early 90s far in the darkest reaches of the ruff'n'tuff Harz mountains, in former East Germany.

Digging even deeper into their nasty jungle and old skool roots, the Fling Rock Stone EP, presents you with an onslaught of perfectly executed, razor sharp drum patterns and basses that pack a 10 tonne force to the chest! Due to be released on internationally renowned Ram Record's sister imprint Program, it's the follow up to a debut single which saw the rise to underground prominence.

'Fling Rock Stone' kicks off the EP, setting the tone with intricate filtered breaks and the war cry of Fling Rock Stone'. You're hyped up into a flurry of chest caving subs and breaks chopped together with utmost precision and style.

Up next is 'Highgrade', beginning with pads this track is set to annihilate dancefloor's around the world over and over. Serious amen break drum work cuts through and delivers nothing but power and bass weight energy reminiscent of the dark days, fusing new elements with old skool flavour, delivering nothing short of a production masterpiece.

'Hyper G' and 'Bagleys' complete the EP. 'Hyper G' rolls in with mysterious, unearthly atmospherics layered on top of mangled drum edits building into a crushing assault. Heavy weight kick drums, clanged snares and mid range heavy stabs deliver an all-out tear rhythm, able to lead you onto any dance floor. 'Bagleys' sets a different tone. Taking you on a journey to the epic rave days of Bagleys nightclub with an echoed sample mixed on top of bitcrushed drum edits and murky pads, its rises into a storm of pitching down bass, and the drums are rolled in guaranteeing nothing but pure dancefloor satisfaction.

With 4 beautifully crafted masterpieces, Slang Banger blend the lines of old skool flavour and dark, tech infused bass lines to deliver something fresh, exciting and monstrous! Thus delivering the guarantee of world dance floor domination!

With a quiet intensity over the last 12 years, Strategy has proven himself to be an incredibly resourceful and rewarding musician in both group settings and as a solo artist. In the latter guise, this Portland producer/multi-instrumentalist (aka Paul Dickow) has released a prolific amount of excellent work for quality indie labels such as Kranky, Idle Hands, 100% Silk, Endless Flight, and Entr'acte, putting a cerebral yet sensual spin on dub, ambient, post rock, and house music. For his Further Records debut, Noise Tape Self, Strategy delves ever deeper into his more ambient inclinations and experiments with tape loops. Most of the six tracks bear titles more suited for a library record, but Noise Tape Self lacks library music's faceless functionality; rather, it's an immersive soundtrack to stimulating one's imagination or losing one's bearings. Dickow says he became obsessed with making tape music in 2008, after tiring of using the computer as his main instrument. Fellow Portland producer/ingenious gear-tinkerer David Chandler (Solenoid) taught Dickow 'how to make a tape loop that could be put inside a cassette tape. I got really into this, and got a 4 track, knowing this would allow me to have four synchronized loops per tape. I would then run each channel through a series of effects and 'perform' live mixes using the loops. I alternated between using source material of my own devising and using whatever source material happened to be on the cassettes I was hacking.

VINYL ONLY!
Following the downtempo pressure of Karma's 'How
Ya Feel', System Music boss V.I.V.E.K returns to
deliver the third release for his fledgling label
delivered purely on 12' vinyl.
The lush atmospherics of opener 'Mantra' suspend
the listener in deep stasis, as slowly moving
textures, strings and low end propel the track.
'Show Me' picks up the pace, with an unnerving
vocal directing techno-influenced chord stabs,
echoing percussion and an arpeggiated synth line
that extends and expands itself into the forefront
across the latter half.
'Soundman V.I.P' brings earth-shattering sub weight
and percussive bass stabs that clash with deep
atmospherics that are meticulously engineered for
big room soundsystems. Finally, V.I.V.E.K takes
'Asteroids', the title track from the label's first
release and re-evaluates it with the help of an
ethereal vocal line replacing the lyrics from the
original.
2013 has seen V.I.V.E.K's SYSTEM events go from
strength to strength, proving Mixmag's claim of the
soundsystem to be 'like nothing else you've heard'
correct. As a producer V.I.V.E.K has seen his music
released on esteemed labels such as Deep Medi,
Tectonic, Greensleeves Records and Soul Jazz.

Chilli Space 11 is a compilation of the freshest sub-alpine electronic music from Slovenia.

Greetings, earthlings: we come from the land of endless summers and spontaneous jam sessions to deliver Get Physical number 300. It's brought to you by the trio from Copenhagen known as WhoMadeWho, a genre-bending group of buddies who are no strangers to critically-acclaimed albums: from their first-ever eponymous album back in 2005, to 2012's chart-topping 'Brighter' LP, all the way to last year's 'Dreams' LP, which was in fact, touted by many as one of the best things to come from the indie-dance sector of music in some time. This comes as no surprise coming from a band that's played and toured alongside the likes of Justice, LCD Soundsystem, Daft Punk and Hot Chip, who even asked to remix the trio's song 'TV Friend' while they in return covered 'Don't Dance'. Other remixers include underground heavy-hitters The Mole, DJ Koze and Michael Mayer, proving WhoMadeWho's ability to go from mega-stage to basement seamlessly. For the 'Ember' EP, their latest foray into the world of machine music and dreamy soundscapes, the band has stayed true to their pop tendencies while spinning things around and taking a trip right back to their roots. Band member Tomas Barfod - who also produced the release - mentions: 'After many years of emphasizing 'the song' more and more, we felt like just playing around with our instruments, like when we recorded our first album (...) it was like renewing our band-wedding vows; we found our way back to our fun and free approach of making music together". 'Fun' and 'free' might very well be two of the best ways to describe this seven-track creation that skews as much pop as it does surf-rock and slow, meaningful dance music.

On their fourth album BGM (1981), YMO continued where they left off with X8 Multiplies, by venturing further into synthesizers, drum computers and experimentation with rhythm, sequences and speeds.

This album is more focused on atmosphere and mood, some even say this album is a turning point for YMO and the international Pop music scene. They successfully merged lyrics, sound bites and their signature electrically programmed music on BGM.

'1000 Knives' and 'Cue' are the most famous; 'The Hand Clap' on '1000 Knives' is probably one of the most used samples in the '80s, early '90s.

The ability of the young producer from Brighton Zak Brashill to absorb and deconstruct the history of British dance music of the last 20 years never ceases to amaze us. "Synapse", included in DEU' (Lapsus, 2014), already demonstrates his skills with the tremendous ease at which he revitalised the old ways of Jungle and Drum & Bass cult classics such as Metalheadz, No U-Turn or Moving Shadow. However, nobody could have predicted what was to come. "Technicolor Daydream" is the most complete and complex work to date by Etch. An EP of five incredible songs packed with breaks, alien melodies, fat heavy bass lines and colorful acid sequences. These are remarkably mature productions overflowing with personality.

Coinciding with the launch of "History Of Gods", appears the first release of the "30drop Mixes" series; limited-edition of 25 cassettes and unlimited free downloading in digital format, as well as releasing DJ sessions or Live performances by artists who work in the same direction as the label's sound. On this occasion, an exclusive Live Set, with the atmosphere-laden, cosmic and experimental touch of 30drop.

The first precursor to DJ Hidden's Directive album comes in the shape of three very different sounding tracks. Contrasting one another in sound and speed, they showcase the diversity of the album in unique ways. Crossbreed, glitchhop and drum & bass all are represented through

Hejira follow up their critically acclaimed 2013 debut album 'Prayer Before Birth' with the release of a new EP entitled 'NameSurname'.

The four song 12" vinyl and digital download will be released on Eglo Records on April 6th and to celebrate Hejira will be playing a special show at the legendary 100Club on April 3rd with Joanne Robertson and Eglo co-founder Floating Points on the decks. Tickets are now available and include a free digital download of the EP.

Jilk release their new EP 'In Need of Tess' - A wonderful collection of tracks that build on the established epic soundscapes of past releases but also demonstrate the organic development of combining experimental ambient pallets with more traditional orchestral scores and delicate pop sensibilities.

Following their successful collaboration with Haiku Salut on the emotionally charged 'Periscopes', Jilk return with warped vocals, soaring strings and a techno core tying the spiralling dense walls of ambience together.

The lead single, 'In Need of Tess' is a collaborative piece, a pulsating slice of chamber pop about dead dogs and dreams which also draws on the considerable talents of video director Nic Kane, the sculptures of Hester Sorel Moriarty Thompson.

The rest of the EP comprises of a two-part piece developed from a soundtrack Jilk produced for a lovely short film by Nim Jethwa. Building, developing and fleshing out the ideas, Jilk combine the sweeping beauty of orchestral timbre with driving 4/4 pulse and rusty sounding guitars for Nim and Nim (Sit Down Outro).

Baby Hannah is an epic piece of post rock inflected electronica making full use of the bands wide range of players. Vibraphone, violins and guitars cling to foundation drum patterns as the piece moves from ambient drone through to a rain storm of melodic percussion that even Steve Reich would approve of.

Be Heart: A short but emotionally charged clattering lo-fi electro love song built from home found sounds and frazzled broken synths. The most aching club romance to take place in a child's toy box.

Then a collaboration with the incredible Nuala Honan as Jilk rework her stand out track 'All is Not Lost', (taken from her 2014 album The Tortoise). Jilk mould the song into a hazy blanket of clicks, whirs, strings and heart wrenching vocals from snippets.

After a six year gap, Miranda returns with her third full-length studio album, Echoes Of The Dreamtime. Eight songs of 'Psychedelic Chamber Folk Rock' finding the diamonds in the dust of everyday life and the relationships within.
Echoes Of The Dreamtime follows on from the critically acclaimed success of The Herethereafter (Virgin Records, 2001) and Light Of X (Nettwerk Records, 2009), which KCRW and the BBC supported, along with two tours of the UK. New single 7th Ray is tipped for the same heights as The Long Goodbye which reached the Top 5 in Japan in 2001.

Echoes Of The Dreamtime is produced by Rick Parker, best known for his work with the Dandy Warhols (including Bohemian Like Me) and Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

Miranda is an American singer-songwriter from San Francisco. She is the daughter of Ted and Teresa Richards, stars of the underground comics revolution and the goddaughter of legendary cartoonist Robert Crumb, who is considered by many to be the single best cartoonist America has ever produced (Observer Oct 2015) and whose works include Fritz the Cat, the Keep On Truckin guy and Mr Natural.

In the beginning Kirk Hammett of Metallica taught Richards a few songs on guitar and then she went on to work with Joe Firstman, Suzanne Vega, Tim Burgess, Tricky, Good Listeners and the Jesus and Mary Chain. Miranda was a member of the Brian Jonestown Massacre and she sang the hit Anemone.

Miranda's film credits include appearing in the Ondi Timoner film DIG! (2004), writing the song Beautiful Day for the indie film and soundtrack to Adam (2009). She also wrote a song called Hero Of The Silent War for the ground breaking immersive feature film, The Hornet's Nest (2014), featuring Wynonna Judd, Stevie Nicks, and Kid Rock as fellow soundtrack contributors.

We are proud to present to you our next dnb-themed vinyl release, which comes with two absolutely fantastic deep-bassed and crisp-beated rollers. In the case of this record, we can speak of a small Polish invasion, as both tracks have been written and produced by two Polish supertalents - Mortem, who has been making big waves in the dnb industry for some time already, and Harland - an established Warsaw-based event promoter and DJ, and a now-upcoming producer, teaming up with Mortem on the flipside. Starting off with Mortem's 'Proximity', you'll surely appreciate his trademark to-the-point drumwork and clear basslines, adorned with intriguing vocal inserts and growling synths. 'The Same', with its quick-paced hi-hats, riveting synthetic melody, and spacious bassline, is surely more dancefloor-oriented, but still fits the deeper side of dnb perfectly, making this record as a whole a very welcome addition to the Absys family.

Okzharp (pronounced 'oh-kay-zarp') is a project that pivots around South African born London producer Gervase Gordon, who still maintains strong links to Capetown and Johannesburg and the creative work coming from there. 'Dumela 113' - translated as 'Hello 113' - is a suite of house mutations that feature the vocals of Manthe Ribane, an artist who runs the creative studio in Capetown called Studio113 with her two siblings, while her own work spans dance (she toured as a dancer with 'Die Antwoord'), modelling, styling, film and photography. 'Dumela 113' started to take form when the South African director and photographer Chris Saunders introduced Manthe to Gervase. Chris and Gervase had started making a film together, called 'Ghost Diamond', which Manthe styled, choreographed, and starred, in. Consequently two tracks on this EP, 'Fede' and 'Sizzr', are also from the film's soundtrack. 'Dear Ribane's lyrics are sung in the language of Tshwana and are about being a performer and working on shoots, and the complexities of understanding different kinds of beauty and being a vessel for other people's ideas of beauty, mocking a row of models with the line ''Ostrich 1, Ostrich 2, Ostrich 3, 4, 5, 6, 7', The lyrics open out slowly over a sharp kick drum as a minimal keyboard creeps around Manthe's poised vocals. 'Sizzr', delivered in English, is a positive mission statement about living in the moment, standing up for what you believe and not letting bad vibes get to you, sung with vocoder over bittersweet but positive keys, flipping from beatless to heads-down house. Inspired by a childhood game, 'Fede's lyrics play with the question 'How are you' and all the different ways this can be interpreted, Manthe's voice glistening with android fx over driving toms and deep bass. The EP finishes with 'Glonet', an instrumental of dubstep-indebted house with a wistful oriental melody that shifts gears between half and double speed.

Just recently the The 23s, a mysterious one-man-show from the German Nord-Rhine-Westphalia area, launched the second chapter of his career and released 'Flamingo' - another longplayer full of romantic smooth operators. It can be heard as a love-letter to the movie scores of the French 70ees cinema or the impressionistic sound arrangements in early Peter Greenaway movies. You find the head of a double bass in it, discreet piano melodies thrill your senses and gentle horns and beats recollect the warm jazz influenced soul of oldschool hip-hop. Now four globally famed producers laid hand on his sublime get-down-deep instrumental journey and remixed two of his arrangements.
Canadian disco-techno-blender The Mole transforms 'Any Second' into a slow banging sort of trip hop experience, in which you can get lost in a deep echoed background atmosphere.
The now defunct German experimental electronic trio to rococo rot, long-term friends of nebulous The 23s, reworked 'The scene where the car was blown away' and twisted it into a futuristic Balearic trip where Guitars slide cool and rhythms roll unfolded.
Also Gilles Alken aka Edward, man behind the acclaimed White label from Berlin and renowned Giegling artist, fell in love with 'The scene where the car was blown away'. His version is a rattling one with a prominent magic double bass and an average psychedelic atmosphere that absorbs listeners profoundly.
The fourth remixer comes from Cologne. His name is Christian S, he loves twisted grooves and he is deeply in touch with the Cómeme tribe. His choice was also 'Any Second'. In comparison to the one by The Mole his version is racy. Hi-Hats and percussive rhythms provoke movements instantly, while bewitching chords pitch the emotions high. Four remixes by four musically different grounded producers, that all have one in common: the playfulness of the pattern-based The 23s hallucinatory sound world.

Deep Medi's next LP brings together dubstep heavyweights Commodo, Kahn & Gantz. The six-tracker is a rare long player for the label, which is primarily known for its 12" singles. Though each producer has appeared on the label individually over the years, the double LP is the first time the three producers have worked together on record. With FACT premiering the hypnotic video for Volume 1's lead single 'So Familia', (directed by Joshua Hughes-Games & Alex Hughes-Games - MFM Films) and Boiler Room debuting 'Unmistakable' on 17.08.... the lead up to release day will be concluded with 'AMK' via MixmMag on 21.08.

* Requisite (DLR & Ant TC1 Rmx)
Cohorts DLR and Ant TC1 take on Friske's Requisite, one of his first releases for the label back in 2013, the pair turn into an almost Black Science Labs era roller. Sharpened drums roll out accented by the detroit techno-esque stabs. The bass gives momentum to proceedings and a fine way to kick off the release.

*Temperamental
Friske's comes with a straight to the point stepper for the second track on the release, a classic Headz track in that it creates a mood instantly. A perfect mid set track for the DJs, it allows for long mixes and a heads down moment for the dancers

*Down
A drifting half time trarck that Friske has become deft at making. It nods at golden era jungle whilst retaining the production quality of today.

* Dispatch LTD returns with a follow up single from recent 'Unbreakable EP' artists Gerra & Stone, featuring the highly demanded reworks from their first two Dispatch releases, alongside another original track.

* Returning to their debut on Dispatch, the already huge 'Back Hand' receives the remix treatment from 'Seeing Sounds' album artist DLR. The result, a chunky tech stomper, aptly named the 'Dogbite Remix' turning a dancefloor track into an entirely new beast altogether.

* Following the incredible response from 'Too Deep', it felt only right we came correct with the VIP. Already hurting crowds' right across UK & Europe, Gerra & Stone's mighty 'Too Deep VIP' brings it straight back into focus - a superb rework from the duo that will remain in the bag!

* The final track is an original piece from the duo, 'These Words' concluding the single with soulful, early liquid vibes. Light chords and brass flashes dance amongst vocal echoes and technical glitches, all smoothly gelled together in signature Gerra & Stone style.

* Following from his highly acclaimed debut album 'Life Cycle', Keeno puts forward his latest cinematic masterpiece on Med School with the 'Preludes' EP. A stunning reminder of Keeno's ability to infuse classically trained skill with modern day production, resulting in a four-track collection of uncompromised elegance - a must-have.
* Fulfilling Keeno's reputation for soothing the soul of drum and bass, the up-tempo drums and hypnotic, male-led vocal of 'One More Moment' provides four minutes of effortless listening. 'Origin' delivers a delicate balance of prominent piano chords and enrapturing bass lines, whilst like a wave of silver shadow 'The Moon Under the Water' provides the epitome of refined, liquid luxury.

* Alongside fellow Med School classmate Whiney, Keeno has created a truly piece of music to round of the EP. 'Dignity Found' possesses a gentle intermittence of percussions, high-pitched string sections and expert intertwining of blissful melodies before dropping into a call and response of anthemic vocal echoes and euphoric, electric guitar.

* Since hitting Med School's radar in 2013 and the release of his stunning debut album, 'Life Cycle', there's been no shortage of support for young Will Keen, already with three well-deserved award nominations, most notably 'Best Album' at the 2013 Drum & Bass Arena Awards.

* With all four tracks fitting together like a perfectly completed puzzle, this EP is sure to draw in a new surge of devoted listeners, all the while ensuring guaranteed satisfaction for any preceding Keeno fan. As the title suggests, the 'Preludes' EP gives an apt introduction of what's to come in 2015; clearly the future is very bright for this young Med School talent.

* Mikal is a producer who has made a name for himself by making stand out drum & bass tracks that have caught the attention of DJs and listeners alike, he has released on a multitude of labels but it is Metalheadz that are releasing his debut album.

* The album is called 'Wilderness' and it was very much worth the wait. A no nonsense statement of intent from the Bristol based produced who has been quietly working away in his studio and is now ready to show the world his work, collaborations on the album come from Chimpo, Xtrah, Break, RIOT and Sophie Barker.

* The sound of the album is streamlined with a focus on low end sonic frequencies. It takes the fundamentals of jungle but none of the clichés, the execution is firmly rooted in 2016.
* We'll leave Goldie to have the last say on Wilderness:
* "Mikal is the silent assassin of the Headz camp and when i signed him i knew the potential he had in him- this album is the full realisation of that potential. He's worked very hard at perfecting his craft and i'm very happy to hear it. His inversion of DnB culture has always excited me, the dub element is something that resonates with me as a missing part to the puzzle in the Headz camp"

* Lining up a label debut with Dutch DJ and producer Nymfo, for HWARE037. The release holds in store three huge tracks from the multi- award winning musician. Nymfo's career highlights have been many and varied, with worldwide successes on Commercial Suicide, Metalheadz and Critical Modulations, nights in his native Netherlands, and support from the likes of Goldie, Friction, Fabio, Hype and many, many more.
Now is the time for HWARE037, as Nymfo continues to develop his sound, finding new avenues for expression and new ways of delivering his trademark techno-edged drum & bass.

* On Don't Stop Nymfo teams up with label stalwart BTK to deliver the storming opener. Tribal percussion soon gives way to nagging, invasive beats. The hypnotic vocal phrase acts as counterpoint, but the real emphasis is on the drums, and then, after the drop, the bass. Things get modulated by pauses and mini-breaks, but the mood remains throughout. Real quality, real underground, and real Hardware.

* Top Secret follows next, with blasting, low-slung beats leading to an electronic lift. The levels are instantly ramped up, with Nymfo unleashing the main drum set. You know instantly that this one
will drop anywhere it's played, so prepare to hear this one wall-to-wall. Growling, upsetting bass is entered next, with the whole effect being one of pure grittiness and grime. Nymfo knows how to rock a party, and does so on Top Secret.

* Rounding things out is Ship Wreck. Here, sparkling electronics take over the main melody to start, before the real action takes place. And by real action, we mean one of the heaviest basslines to see the light of day this year. With only room for a percussive beat and some well-placed samples, the Dutch

Delsin present a new EP by B12 aka Steve Rutter entitled Orbiting Souls, a name which comes from the fact the veteran artist has recently spent contemplating the loss of a friend and believes we are surrounded by lost souls and spirits. This is B12's second EP this year following on from the Bokide 325 release on Soma Records and comes years after still acclaimed album like Electro-Soma and TimeTourist on Warp Records back in the 90s. Orbiting Souls is a somewhat complex journey, a representation of inner Bi Polar opposites; isolation; sadness, but also acknowledging the great and wonderful things around that swirl and support and energise us. A perfectly formed sound world that is both absorbing and cerebral and comes with a full colour sleeve by Boris Tellegen.

This is the first recorded collaboration between Charlemagne Palestine and Rhys Chatham. And it's precious. After the musical meeting with  Tony Conrad (SR204), and with Z'ev (SR340), this new Sub Rosa sessions creates a form of trilogy. Rhys Chatham
Rhys Chatham began his musical career as a piano tuner for avant-garde pioneer La Monte Young as well as harpsichord tuner for Gustav Leonhardt, Rosalyn Tureck and Glenn Gould. He soon studied under electronic music pioneer Morton Subotnick and minimalist icon La Monte Young and was a member of Young's group, The Theater of Eternal Music, during the early seventies; Chatham also played with Tony Conrad in an early version of Conrad's group, The Dream Syndicate. In 1971, while still in his teens, Chatham became the first music director at the experimental art space The Kitchen in lower Manhattan. His early works, such as Two Gongs (1971) owed a significant debt to Young and other minimalists. His concert productions included experimenters Maryanne Amacher, Robert Ashley, Philip Glass, Meredith Monk, Pauline Oliveros, Steve Reich, and early alternative rockers such as Fred Frith, Robert Fripp, Arto Lindsay, and John Lurie. He has worked closely with visual artist/musician Robert Longo, particularly in the 1980s, and on an experimental opera called XS: The Opera Opus (1984-6) with the visual artist Joseph Nechvatal. By 1977, Chatham's music was heavily influenced by punk rock, having seen an early Ramones concert. He was particularly intrigued by and influential upon the group of artists music critics would label No Wave in 1978. Members of the New York City noise rock band Band of Susans began their careers in Chatham's ensembles; they later performed a cover of Chatham's "Guitar Trio" on their 1991 album, The Word And The Flesh. (This parallels the way that members of fellow NYC noise rockers Sonic Youth began their careers in Branca's ensembles; Thurston Moore of Sonic Youth did play with Chatham as well.) Chatham began playing trumpet in 1983, and his more recent works explore improvisatory trumpet solos; these are performed by Chatham himself, employing much of the same amplification and effects that he acquired with the guitar, over synthesized dance rhythms by the composer Martin Wheeler.

Mjazz 14 is a Limited 7 inch release, with big centre hole, hand stamped vinyl, sprayed sleeve and hand wrapped and stickered. Taken from Diamond Eye's debut LP, we have two of the scenes foremost electronic dub experts, Dubmonger and LXC pon the versions. As usual with Mjazz physical product every one has been hand finished and therefore unique.

Russia's premiere drum & bass export Enei returns to close out 2015 with his eagerly awaited sophomore album, 'Rituals'. Following up on his 2012 debut long player 'Machines', Enei shows off a defiantly more mature sound palette drawing influence from across the drum & bass spectrum from his trademark tech nasties through to the deep subliminals from an array of collaborators. With 15 new tracks on offer 'Rituals' is another triumph for an artist moving ever onwards, marking the start of Enei's new chapter

KingUnderground is proud to annonce the realease of 'Soundogolism' the debut LP from Dj Boora.
Hailing from the Ukraine, Boora is clearly a student of hip hop and a great exmaple of how good music transcends all races and cultures. Boora's beats are sample filled, boom bap delights with layers of sound and crisp drums to make your head nod. Varied in his sample sources Boora gives his beats an extra little something that just makes the whole LP a great listening experience.
The LP contains 14 instrumental tracks, with 3 of those tracks getting blessed by the scratching skills of Maxi Skratch.
If you like that classic sound with a fresh perspective then this is an LP you don't want to miss.

Jimi Tenor has made an instrumental album "Mysterium Magnum" with the Finnish "national" Jazz Orchestra, UMO. UMO is a professional 16 piece orchestra. Specialized in jazz and contemporary rhythm music. Throughout it´s history UMO has had a focus on Finnish composers and has performed hundreds of compositions that were made especially for UMO. Jimi Tenor is a Finnish composer/performing artist maybe best known for his electronic music from the 90´s. This album is the first album that´s is composed entirely for a big band. In 2003 Jimi Tenor had his own big band and made a 6-week European tour, which included Montreux Jazz and North Sea Jazz Festivals. After 2003 Jimi Tenor has worked with an afrobeat group Kabukabu and made three albums with them: "Joystone" (2007, Sähkö), "4th Dimension" (2008, Sähkö) and "The Mystery of Aether" (2012, Kindred Spirits) In 2009 Jimi Tenor made an album with the afrobeat legend Tony Allen called "Information Inspiration" (2009, Strut) Mysterium Magnum was recorded at the rehearsal space of UMO, which is situated at the YLE studios in Helsinki. The music on "Mysterium Magnum" is not typical big band music.

Great dance music albums - albums that sound as good on headphones and home speakers as they do on club sound-systems - aren't easily made. In a form whose primary aims have been to move dance-floors and to move on, full lengths that thrill the head, heart and the feet with equal power are few and far between. We believe Romare has made one. With the gripping shock of the new that announces the best records of the genre - from Entroducing through Blue Lines to Ambient Classics - Romare has both a singular style, and great deal to say with it. 'Projections" comes off like Voodoo Ray reworked by DJ Shadow.

The songs on "Projections" are an homage to elements of American/African culture in the USA - which Romare studied academically. Taking his name from Romare Bearden, the well-known cut'n'paste artist / collagist, and applying similar techniques to music. Romare re-imagines the profound cultural impact of the collage technique for a new generation of music listeners. With his signing to Ninja Tune, coming hot on the heels of his excellent 12's on underground institution Black Acre, and compilation inclusions by Tiga, Bonobo and Brownswood, the stage is set for his debut album

Supern thin Drill Drum sounds... in the vein of Squarepusher, The Flashbulb and Venetian Snare. Splendid sound and sleeve... thick plate ! Sick Plate ! Seek this plate !

Après un EP très réussi, la réalisation de bandes originales pour la chaîne National Geographic et quelques mixtapes enflammées, le jeune nantais Skence revient pour vous amener un peu plus loin dans son univers au travers d'un premier album très éclectique «Home» que nous avons l'honneur de vous faire découvrir.
Au delà d'une simple beat tape, l'idée est de nous faire voyager dans son esprit, afin de nous faire découvrir son monde mystique, libre et surréaliste. Son style se définit aux frontières du Jazz et du Hip-hop, alliés à la musique électronique. On retrouve des influences qui l'ont directement inspiré avec des artistes comme Dj Krush, Tipper, Onra ou encore Flying Lotus

'We Start Over' arrived on the desks at International Feel and it felt perfect for us. Deep electronics, a lovely mood, forward thinking and a gorgeous vocal from Trudie Dawn Smith. Lots to play with from a remix perspective and a great original track in itself. Steve Cobby is a British producer, musician, composer, and DJ, based in Kingston-upon-Hull, Yorkshire. He co-founded Fila Brazillia in 1990 and released 10 critically acclaimed LP's and produced over 70 remixes for artists as diverse as Radiohead, Busta Rhymes, Black Uhuru and A Certain Ratio. Cobby now releases music via his own label Déclassé label. His latest and third solo LP 'Saudade' was released in March 2014 and received considerable critical acclaim.

The first 12" consists of the original version and on the flip a remix by Apiento & Lx (their first track together since the underground classic 'The Orange Place' ). The remix is slow trance in its purest sense, made for lasers and dark nightclubs. It's already receiving club play and has been named by Andrew Weatherall and Sean Johnston's ALFOS as "one of the records of the summer". High praise.

On the second 12" the reins have been handed to Gerd Janson & Phillip Lauer a.k.a Tuff City Kids - two people making some of the finest house at their at the moment with Janson also getting massively known globally for his DJing. Their remixes are made for the clubs. The 'Garage Dub' is classic New York house that is as deep as you like and one of those hooky ones that does everything perfectly. The other, 'Private Acid Mix ' goes heavy on the beats and drops the 303 in a fine style with the vocal looped and twisted.

As you would expect from International Feel this is classy and classic club music covered from all angles from a balearic original, a deep chug remix from Apiento & Lx and the Tuff City Kids bringing the house vibe. Deep deep deep.

Finis Africæ. Words redolent of mystery and myth, of Europe looking out to new lands, new worlds, new times. And so it is with "A Last Discovery", the work of Spaniard Juan Alberto Arteche Guel and his musical co-adventurers, recorded between 1984 and 2001.
After fifteen years of musical success in Spain with his band Nuestro Pequeño Mundo, Arteche was ready to experiment with new ideas, and with the purchase of a four-track reel-to-reel recorder he did so, exploring imaginary global music-worlds with a core of like-minded explorers. The group, dubbed "Finis Africæ" by JAA after reading Umberto Eco's "The Name of the Rose", where the term refers to forbidden books and hidden knowledge, released seven recordings over an eighteen-year period, the best of which are compiled here.

Finis Africae was part of the "new wave" of Spanish music which gradually emerged after the end of the Francoist regime. Using
modern electric instruments and traditional acoustic instruments from many cultures blended together via studio alchemy, a magic which grew even stronger with the acquisition of a sixteen-track recorder after their second release, Finis Africæ created an outward-looking musical multiverse, an unclassifiable amalgam encompassing elements of folk traditions from all over the world,
skillfully and lovingly shaped into an inclusive pan-global whole. Deeply influenced by African music, the group's reverberant, organic minimal funk will appeal to DJs as well as all who yearn for the loving warmth that comes with the embrace of global possibilities.

With liner notes in Spanish, English and Japanese by JAA, "A
Last Discovery" is available on CD and double vinyl (with two bonus tracks). This is the first release by Finis Africae outside of their native Spain. Come take a retrospective journey of discovery. New worlds await.

One listen to this EP in its entirety and it becomes very clear that Fixate was always destined to become an Exit artist. His sound is
versatile and yet carries a present theme, much like Exit's catalogue. The EP opens with 'Throwback Therapy', a perfect execution of the Juke X Jungle X Rave crossover, massive amounts energy and
deft audio touches are all very much present. 'Percussive Aggressive' follows this and here is where the versatility comes into play- staccato kick drums leave room for the percussive elements to carry the rhythm forward underpinned by massive subs. 'N20' is a track made for exactly sound-systems, minimal drums and maximal bass, a very foreboding track due it's sparse nature with just enough minds and vocal FX to carry the momentum through, It's 3am all-enveloping club music. Track number four- 'Alive' is the most techno of the five tracks on the EP, the chords in the track are reminiscent of classic Chicago sounds whilst the skittering percussion give a lot of energy to proceedings. This EP feels like a statement of intent from Fixate, digging his heels into 2015 via the perfect outlet of Exit Records.

Spiraling around, with some Hard bangers and some mental diggers. A superb second opus, bringing the sound of some of the best artists all time...

Since its inception at the end of the last century, POP AMBIENT has always been a labor of love: meticulously curated by Wolfgang Voigt, these releases never showed much interest in any particular style of the day. Much more genre-defining than trendsetting, they followed their own path and established a unique aesthetic sitting somewhere between experimental field recordings, no-age music and smooth synth pop - we like to think of it as elevator music for the vertically challenged. It's also been an overflowing pan these last years, with a dizzying array of musicians trying their hands at beatless eletronics with certain time-transcending properties - as good a reason as any to take the brand one step further and introduce our listeners to our freshly minted Pop Ambient album series, where we'll spoil you with full-length offerings from top-tier tinkerers in the field. Serving as the series' glorious first instalment is EL REINO INVISIBLE, a diverse and conclusive collection of beautifully rendered synthscapes from none other than Pop Ambient staple LEANDRO FRESCO.

Martoc, aka Martin O'Cuthbert, has been making alien and alienated synth-pop in the UK since the post-punk period. This compilation gathers six songs released on seven-inch EPs during the years 1978-80, plus four songs released during the first decade of this century !
The tracks show a distinctive stylistic unity, inspired by fellow spirits like Fad Gadget, The Normal, John Foxx and
Kraftwerk, across the decades Martoc has maintained both his close relationship with his synthesizers and an arms-length relationship with society, resulting in an appealingly quirky and individualistic iciness, informed also by his love of science fiction writers such as J. G. Ballard and Iain Banks.

One of the songs included here, "B.E.M.S.", was chosen as
Record Of The Year by John Lydon in New Musical Express in 1978, John Peel was also a supporter. Despite these and other accolades, Martoc and his simultaneously catchy yet disturbing music has hovered resolutely under the radar, an alien craft avoiding detection by an unaware and perhaps unprepared world. Gathered together here, this collection of tracks offers an excellent opportunity investigate an alien explorer.

Severed Heads are one of the longest surviving bands to emerge from the Australian post-punk independent music scene. They began in Sydney in 1979, incorporating elements of 'industrial' noise-generation, tape cutting & looping and electronic sound synthesis. As the project developed song-structures and vocals were employed in a more-or-less recognizable mutant electro pop style. After many line-up changes featuring Garry Bradbury and psychedelic guitarist Simon Knuckey, Severed Heads was the vehicle for composer Tom Ellard.

In 1985 their record label asked them to release a retrospective, so they dragged out bits that we had lying around from 1979 up til 1983. The compilation was titled Clifford Darling Please Don't Live In The Past', spread out into a montage over four sides of vinyl. Bradbury and Ellard would fuss each bit and sling it on their new digital recorder, and since they still have the digital recorder, this reissue is made directly from the bits assembled twenty years ago. This compilation includes live recordings, raw demos, unreleased studio recordings and solo pieces from each member of the band during from the first five years. Their early music was characterized by the use of tape loops, noisy arrangements of synthesizers and other dissonant sound sources in the general category of industrial music. After several releases in that vein, Severed Heads began incorporating various popular music tropes, such as a consistent 4/4 rhythm, strong melodic lines, resolving chord arrangements and the occasional vocal. This move was underscored by the incorporation of mimetic devices, such as drum machines and bass synthesizers. The result was a striking hybrid of the avant-garde industrial and pop.

All songs are remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. Housed in a jacket featuring brightly colored, distorted, VHS graphics output by Stephen Jones' video synthesizer created by Tom Ellard video piece Kato Gets The Girl' in 1985, designed by Eloise Leigh. Each copy includes a fold-out poster with a color video still photo on one side and liner notes and credits on the other. 30 years later Severed Heads' perverse creativity is still paving the way for powerful imaginative challenging music far and wide.

Tarotplane is the solo project of PJ Dorsey from Baltimore MD USA. Over the last few years he has been gradually crafting his debut album, appropriately called First. The end result is a tremendous album etched on the great krautrock & experimental psychedelic records from the 70s. Vintage electronic sounds are mixed with effected guitar parts. It might sound quite familiar at first, but once you enter the heart of the album it all gets spectacularely exhilarating. The true power of this album is how it swirls around and captivates you without any effort.

Records such as Franco Battiato's Pollution, Bill Holt's Dreamies, Popol Vuh's Affenstunde and Deuter's D were strong influences. All of these artists use tape loops, environmental sounds, filtering and other effect processing in an exceptional way. Their desire to create their own distinct sonic world was the driving influence behind this LP. These artists never let the experimentation get in the way of creating something musical, beautiful and sonorous. First integrates those influences but it also has a more traditional psychedelic rock sound built into its sonic viewpoint.

PJ took all these diverse influences and blended them together in the most seamless way possible. Something akin to a mix tape. First is a continuous flow from the start to the end. The album was originally going to be called excursions, because he would walk for hours on Baltimore's waterfront listening to fragments of his playing, as well as samples from films and records to find a balance that worked. The ultimate goal was to make what some would call a head record. Something you could listen to on your own personal excursions that would have a sonic headspace that was distinctive and enjoyable.
