Beats Vinyl New Releases - News

Ltd Vinyl Only release. With a vast new number of record labels surfacing during the ongoing resurgence of vinyl, it's now up to Green King Cuts to bring its own history in dub-minded bass music. The CEOs Jake Hennessy and Liam Conway, who grew up together, will do what's necessary to bring their values and those of their artists to a vinyl-only rundown - all for the love of sound-system music. The London born, Bristol based C-Side plays an important role in the first chapter of the label's future outline. He has been focusing on the aesthetics of dubstep for years and is known for his enthusiasm within the whole creative process. The sound he blazons has overtaken international waters and now it's time for his inaugural vinyl release. Its remixed by DEEP MEDi igniter Cessman, known for his anthemic collaboration with 'King' Kromestar called 'Kalawanji'. The bass veteran and front-man of the Dubliminal imprint never fails to deliver a quality remix treatment that forms an ode to uplifting dub music. 'Early Days Dub' pays homage to the golden era of dubstep, containing hits of dubwise elements, a ruff bassline and the all but vital amount of delay. C-side explores the foundation of the music by incorporating a beautiful alto saxophone sting from a close friend that fuels the nostalgic feeling of old-school dub. The London born, Bristol based artist uplifts a vibe that comes close to system sound. Cessman blurs the original dub version with a lot of wet reverb and an even weightier bassline. All present elements swirl around its foundation freely, giving the solid percussion and vocal sample the right place in time. There's no harm done when this built is played out loud in foggy basements. In fact it will bring forth the feeling of an old-school session purely for a skank & inner meditation.

"Rundgång"(Feedback in Swedish) is a track made with feedback and i would call it A.O.T's very own and personal interpretation of Dubstep with "lyrics"that reflects his wicked sense of humor.
"Woot!"on the other hand is an evil excursion in filtered frequency noises and a distorted start/stop rhythm and this is nothing for the faint hearted so brace yourself you are in for a crazy trip verging on Techno.
The " (Go Koyashiki Remix)"takes remixing to another level because Go has stripped "Rundgång"to it's bare essentials and produced a very minimal and slow pulsating track that ends with sublime pianoplaying.

Die Orakel presents two reinterpretations by Edward of Krautrock excursions - originally recorded by Harmonia and Brian Eno in 1973 and 1976. Harmonia is a Krautrock/Kosmische Musik group from Germany - formed as a collaboration of Michael Rother of Neu!, Hans-Joachim Roedelius and Dieter Möbius of Cluster 1973. In the same year, the song Sehr Kosmisch' was released on the band's debut album Musik von Harmonia". In September 1976 Brian Eno and Harmonia then collaborated and recorded Atmosphere' at the band's studio in Forst, Germany. However, the song was not released until 1997 as the tape was considered lost for almost twenty years. Who would be more suitable to remix original Krautrock material than Gilles Aiken, better known as Edward Considering his latest productions, Edward mostly works within house and techno templates while echoing Krautrock figures like Connie Plank. He is recognized for producing filigree club tracks that come with a spiritual edge. Over the years, this combination has made him a mainstay of Berlin's White label as well as Weimar's esteemed Giegling crew.

The 4th release from Ljudverket introduces a new artist to the label; Vesa-Matti Kivioja brings us a 7-track journey into sound on his debut vinyl 'Lopun ajat'. Dark and mysterious all the way, this record follows the path of eclectic sounds with nordic flavor that Ljudverket has provided so far.

William Bennett - founder and sole constant member of Whitehouse - earned considerable acclaim for his reincarnation last year
as Cut Hands and the release of the album Afro Noise Vol.1. His sophomore full-length in this guise, Black Mamba, is due out
on Susan Lawly in Autumn; to herald its arrival, Blackest Ever Black is releasing it's thunderous title track as a 12" maxi single.

On the A-side Africa's deadliest, most beautiful snake breeds with insane, vaudou-obsessive polyrhythms to give birth to
the monstrous, consuming, convulsive 'Black Mamba' - without doubt the most potent manifestation of Cut Hands' malign
energy yet. On the flip: 'Krokodilo Theme', an extraordinarily pensive, heart-rending piece first aired on the soundtrack of
last year's Siberia: Krokodil Tears documentary.

This is a vinyl-only release; first edition of 1000 copies in full picture sleeve with original artwork by Mimsy DeBlois.

Following a flurry of new LPs to kick off the year, PY80 is the first on Polytechnic Youth in a while since the pressing plant hoo-ha of Record Store Day has subsided; and it’s an absolute beauty they return to the fray with, here.

The killer 1981 cassette only release “Here” by COLIN POTTER, is expanded to a double LP with all sorts of additional bonus material released for a first time here. Ace new sleeve art is from Jonathan Coleclough who was behind the artistic reins of the initial Mirage cassette release 38 years ago.

You probably know by now that Colin is the head behind respected electronic label ICR, and is a longterm member of NWW and has played with the likes of Current 93 and Organum etc; and that his revered back catalogue of hugely influential cassette only, DIY electronic releases is slowly being transferred to vinyl via the likes of (PY sister label) Deep Distance and Dark Entries?

“Here” continues the reissue programme, and as he pieced together the out-takes and demos to form this double LP, Colin says “’Here’ marked a move away from some of the more song-orientated music I had been making up to then, towards purely instrumental tracks. On the (new) sleeve I describe it as ‘rural electronic music’ which was to some extent a reflection of my life in a small village in North Yorkshire. Listening back to it now, I can’t figure out how I managed to do it with just a 4 track recorder....”
