Justin Martin looks to the skies on Hello Clouds, his second full length album on Dirtybird. Building on the formidable foundation he established with 2012's Ghettos & Gardens, Justin invites listeners on a high-flying journey through a rich musical landscape. One of the label's most beloved characters, Martin lets his effervescent personality shine through on these 13 tracks along with an unexpected range of emotions.
From the first strings of album opener "Dive In," Justin effortlessly establishes an otherworldly mood. Are we deep beneath the ocean's surface, or squinting at bright sunlight while 30,000 feet in the air It ultimately doesn't matter, we just need to hear more. Justin delivers with a set of obsessively crafted tunes for clubs and headphones alike. For example, on title track "Hello Clouds," Justin mixes the ethereal vocals of rising star FEMME with sub-rattling lows and a chorus of singing 303s.
This is only one of many exciting collaborators on the album. "I reached out to specific artists who currently inspire me," Martin explains. "Artists I think the world needs to hear more of." This impressive group of collaborators include FEMME, Charlotte OC, Lena Cullen, Kill Frenzy, Will Clarke, Ardalan, and even his brother Christian. These features introduce a veritable cast of supporting characters, adding additional stories and sounds to the ones Justin is already sharing.
Hello Clouds is an impressive sophomore outing a complete work that invites the listener to float above walls, ceiling,s and any other restraints they might encounter. So lay back, look skyward, and experience the breathtaking scope of Justin's imagination.

Pocket Money returns for its fourth release, leading on from where Keepin' Soul left off with his 'Deep Basics EP', this time next up on Pocket Money we welcome back DJ Nav this time with a brand new 4 track EP.DJ Nav first made himself known on the label after featuring on Pocket Money's debut release 'Hustlers EP Part 1' among other artists, bringing the heat 2 years ago with his deep chord filled track 'Club Love'.This time Dj Nav is returning with a fresh 4 track EP with 4 cuts of slamming underground deepness, paying heritage to not just the 90's vibe and sound of today, but paying respect to a more mature vibe that pay's respects to the past.

The Lionoil pride return from a heady trip to the most liminal reaches of human comprehension and have brought back something special from their travels.
They welcome Peckham's finest, FYI Chris - the janus of jam, the hydra of hip and the two newest members of the East coast Caledonian cosmic cohort! With them they bring the 'Lionoil EP' - a dirge of disco dragon chasers and hermetic house hangovers.
No dipping the toes gently into this one, dive deep and fully submerge...

finally repressed !

After a lengthy break Mark Henning returns with his new label Swing and four on-point tracks. 'Stash House' kicks things off with a crisply produced groove with snatched male vocals and rounded bass keeping the swing high. 'Exit Acid' ups the energy levels with an acidic tinged b-line proving a grimier feel whilst flip side's 'James Hughes Blues' is all about the breakdown; a neat synth line and huge bass tones lending it a more anthemic edge. Lastly 'The Horror' opts for a lower key ride, fuller male vocal imbuing the track with a sleazier feeling.

NRK Music keeps driving forwards, always with a relatively wide palette of deep house and techno sounds, and NRK171 sees label boss, Nick Harris, deliver another EP of solid house material.

Vinyl collector, producer and resident DJ of CIRQ (one of the most influent underground club in Italy) Olderic is the man behind this fascinating EP 'Alma'. The A side is opened by the title track, which is nothing less than a banger built on purpose to create magic and panic on the dance floor. The dramatic melody break will take you on a journey, the gentle but effective bass and rhythmic patterns combination will shake your senses bringing you back to reality. On the same side Alma receive first class remix treatment by the drum master Christian Prommer who turns the original into a single breath race thanks to an irresistible rhythmical sequence arranged around the anthemic layers of the song. On the B side there is space for the intriguing interlaces and pulsating beats of 'Oasis', a luscious track with a sensual and misterious atmosphere that find emphasis on the remix by Engrave Ltd head Musumeci, who adds his own combination of twisted arpeggios and an outrageous bass line. On top of this already oversized bunch of tunes you will find an extra Christian Prommer Stripped Remix of 'Alma' digitally exclusive. Olderic's debut on Compost Black Label is definitively an entrance in style!

New pack of fresh funky tunes by Petr Serkin, now with remix by Hauke Freer, one-half of Session Victim Duo!

Philipp Matalla strikes back on KANN with another odd 4- track statement. Along with his distinct sense of the outstanding and nonfunctional facet of clubmusic the label member makes - Kiba' sound like a grooving atmospheric well attuned band.

The Second 12' part of Damian Lazarus & The Ancient Moons - Remixes From The Other Side project, the tracks from the compelling artist album 'Message The Other Side' have been reinterpreted by an assortment of producers for a Remix Album. This second Remix 12', 'Remixes From The Other Side (Part II)', featuring remixes from Juan Atkins and Kimyon Huggins, Kölsch, DrumTalk and Gorgon City. 2015 saw Damian Lazarus create his most ambitious project to date in The Ancient Moons, producing a full-length album 'Message From The Other Side' Co-produced by James Ford (Simian Mobile Disco, Arctic Monkeys, Florence & The Machine), with a wide assortment of vocalists and collaborators from around the world. They went on to support Roisin Murphy on tour, gain wide acclaim from the likes and Lazarus became the final cover-star of the year in the UK's Mixmag magazine.

Following releases on labels such as Greco-Roman, TTT and Templar Sound, Dro Carey (Eugene Ward) returns to the scene with his new offering, the industrious yet delicate track 'Queensberry Rules' featuring the vocals of KUCKA, taken from his Dark Zoo EP, out now via Australian label Soothsayer.
Where his previous releases have been firmly focused on the smoke-riddled clubs, Queensberry Rules sees Dro Carey traverse new territory. Working with KUCKA and Collarbones' Marcus Whale on the track, 'Queensberry Rules' sees the Sydney producer creating a unique pop sound, however maintain the gritty DNA that he is so distinctively known for.
As Dro states ''Queensberry Rules' are the set of rules that outline the general code for boxing matches. It's a document about fairness and sportsmanship in a pretty violent activity. That immediately struck me as a great title for a demo. Working with KUCKA and Marcus Whale (of Collarbones) as a co-writer, I think their lyrics perfectly hit upon the sense of irony that I wanted the song to have.'
The track was the first official taste from his Dark Zoo EP which sees Ward push the limits even further within his musical explorations. Whether it's the pop moments of 'Queensberry Rules' and 'Dark Zoo' where he employs the vocals of both KUCKA and FKL respectively to elevate the sonic sensory overload to new levels, to the brooding club explorations that are 'Grow Lithe' and 'Hidden Halls'; the EP is his musical coup d'état from the outset - simultaneously sinister, restrained and intoxicating.
We are absolutely thrilled to present this little gem on Vinyl. This special vinyl release also includes not only the single, but two remixes from heavy weights Mall Grab and Cassius, and a very special new track titled 'Under' which is and will always only be available on the vinyl release of this. Dive in!

"Funkin' With The Drums Again" sees the legendary producer and WBMX disc jockey Farley "Jackmaster" Funk turning in some absolutely killer jacking drum tracks, Chicago style. Each track is an essential DJ tool that has it all, Italo Disco inspired bass-lines, skittering drum machines, eerie analog synthesizer melodies and of course, Farley's trademark percussive vocal stabs punctuating the mix.

Originally released in 1985 the tracks featured on "Funkin' With The Drums Again"still pack a punch now in 2014, the record is a document from the initial first wave of Chicago House records and has that raw edge that so many contemporary producers are still inspired by 20+ years later.

Re-mastered, re-pressed and re-issued in conjunction with the rights holders and complete with original Trax Records label artwork.

"Farley Knows House"

Frits Wentink returns to WOLF with three signature tracks. Fans of his album, Rarely Pure, Never Simple will be pleased to hear vocalist Loes Jongerling feature on the leading cut Blaise Montoya...

Fresh from live performances at Bonobo's Outlier festival, The Quietus stage at The Great Escape, and supporting Max Cooper, London-based production virtuoso Guy Andrews revisits his acclaimed debut album 'Our Spaces'. Informed by audience reactions at these shows, he takes two of the LP's standout tracks and reconfigures them for the dancefloor, with devastating results.
Meanwhile two like-minded artists tackle the album's lead single 'In Autumn Arms'. Max Cooper crafts a formidable collage of IDM textures, with staccato beats punctuating the lilting guitar riff, whilst DJ Mag's former 'Best Breakthrough Producer' Ben Pearce takes the track into the main room, turning in an elemental 4/4 floor-burner.

special triple pack for all you HIGHWAY lovers out there - contains three classic releases

hwr011: scsi-9 - smooth sunset

hwr015: francys - people (alex niggeman, nico lahs & ahmet sisman remixes)

hwr019: aldo cadiz & oscar barila - satin (martin eyerer, mihai popoviciu remixes)

(The Cosmic Disco Remixes)

Continuing with a series that focusses on brilliant remixes of I-Robots originals, Opilec Music now bring together two more Italian legends of the scene in Alexander Robotnick and Daniele Baldelli & Marco Dionigi.

They both turn out reworks of Kind of Intrigue from 2009 as part of an ongoing project that is all based around the impact of Isaac Asimov's Laws of Robotics and features art by Tamami Saito. Santiago Salazar and Mr. Raoul K, Los Hermanos and Gary Martin and more are all part of this ongoing concept which again comes up with the goods here. Alexander Robotnick is a living electronic music legend from Italy who pioneered an Italo disco sound in the 80s and is still going strong.

From scoring films to remixing big name stars via turning out essential electro tracks, he is a top talent who proves that once more here. His excellent version of the original is built on firm kicks and has big colourful chords, wavy bass and twinkling melodies all making for a serene, spaced out groove. Muttered vocals and sci-fi signifiers all make it a hot and steamy affair perfect for summer sessions.

Daniele Baldelli is a cult star from the Italo world and here he teams up with Marco Dionigi to make for a dream production pairing. Dionigi is boss of Quantistic Division and has turned out many seminal albums and EPs since the mid 90s. He was there at the birth of digital technology, has created new genres such as Slow Motion and knows how to cook up a hypnotic melody, as evidenced here.

Their take on Kind Of Intrigue is more subtle and stripped back. It has widescreen synths stretching in all directions, wet and gurgling disco arps and spoken word monologues musing on robots. It is perfectly trippy and analogue and is stuffed with classic Italo vibes of the sort that will make it a big hit with boat parties crew and Balearic lovers everywhere this summer.

This package is another in a long line of classic but modern disco releases that prove Opilec Music does things properly each and every time.

Our last EP of the year is a special one as it marks one year of releasing records for Keep It Zen so we called on Ian Blevins along with remixes from Amsterdam's Frits Wentink and Berlin's Nick Beringer to end our year on a high.
Ian Blevins is an influential name in the underground house scene and was mentioned by Resident Advisor as one of Ibiza's most talented residents. Years of passionately listening to and searching for music, both new and old, has seen Ian's style mature which has helped shape his own productions and his mysterious duo Al Gobi.

Blevins kicks off the EP with 'NEXT'. Lots of rugged percussion keeps the track driving against glitched vocal lines and melodic synthesizers.

'STABBATHA' tried and tested by Blevins at his residency for 'We Love... Space, Ibiza' comes at us instrumentally with a short stubby bass sound, hearty progressive stabs and a teasing arrangement that keeps the track moving.
Frits Wentink has been killing it recently with releases on WOLF Music and Heist Recordings. His sound is somewhat special and unique which is clearly portrayed through his remix of 'NEXT'.
Nick Beringer ends the record nicely giving 'NEXT' some real house love by incorporating his familiar deep sound. Nick has produced for a list of labels including Skytrax, Morris Audio and Deso Records. We're truly honoured to have these artists join the KIZ family.

Next up on Crosstown Rebels is a classy deep tech cut from one of Sweden's finest exports - Ida Engberg. Making her debut on Crosstown Rebels with 'Devil Dance', Ida proves her undeniable power to move the dancefloor as she combines her tough yet groovy style with a sexy dose of acid. B-side 'Silhouette Of A Ghost' is a housier affair, with a lighter bounce yet injected with some filthy distorted bass. Featuring reworks by the legendary Mr G and Ida's close cohort Adam Beyer, the 'Devil Dance' package is essential for any DJ box and best served up on a system that's worthy.

Ida Engberg is a global techno megastar. DJing from an incredibly young age and working her way up from local bars in hometown Stockholm to residencies in Marbella followed by season in Ibiza 2005, Ida then turned attention to production and by 2007 had releases out on Get Physical and Pickadoll. With European tour dates pouring in, Ida came to play her first Drumcode gig in 2008 and later joined the ranks of the juggernaut collective in 2011, often playing alongside Drumcode founder Adam Beyer and also making her mark with releases on the label. The dancefloor domination has continued with sets at the most prestigious clubs and festivals in the world. 2014 will see Ida kick off a residency for Verboten in NYC plus appearances at Damian Lazarus's next Rebel Rave and 9th annual Get Lost in Miami. Ida is to follow this up with a series of EPs for Crosstown Rebels so watch this space.

Delivering a superb dub mix of 'Devil Dance', prolific UK techno veteran Mr G bestows his unmistakable raw and bass heavy thump and groove with his 'NY Dub'. Mr G is a legend by anyones standards - a stronghold in the industry as much as in his pioneering days with The Advent. Nowadays Mr G is found lighting up the catalogues of Rekids, Running Back, Bass Culture and Contemporary Scarecrow as well as releasing on his own imprint Phoenix G.

Fellow Swedish techno royalty Adam Beyer delivers a suitably loopy remix of 'Devil Dance' - clunking and chunking up the percussion and with a groovy little suction motif, Adam once again proves he's a true master of rhythm. Launching the now seminal label Drumcode in 1996, Beyer is the kingpin of the Stockholm scene and as well as a plethora of releases on labels Planet Rhythm, Truesoul and of course countless on own labels Drumcode and Code Red, Adam has also recently created a stunning live act with Cari Lekebusch.

Two Parisians, Ivan Smagghe and Tim Paris, exiled in London for the better part of the last ten year set out to re-define space. It's a fine line was born from non-restraint, cultivating its own vision of house music and disco, a paradoxical one, a non-functional one.

Their first LP (thought, rebuilt, announced, delayed) reveals itself as a collection of tests, of explorations in the shadows and corners of club culture. These are murky roads where counterfeit goes for gold standard, perfect territory to lose oneself in order to find ones way. Leaving behind the smooth highways of club music, they rode more chaotic trails, with dubious reputation or names: white funk, trance groove, electronic psychedelia, greasy, rock'n'roll... A risky path, ambivalent, proud of accidents, crashes and bad taste, but the only real way to discover virgin grounds on well-trodden terrain. They are writing their own (hi)story.

For this album, Tim and Ivan recruited three double agents, the flame of Alex Kapranos, singer of Franz Ferdinand, the mysterious voice of Olivia de Lanzac from cult band Quad Throw Salchow and the pitched down, spectre of label companion C.A.R. Three tweaked but prominent voices, joining in an album that confounds through the coherence of its eclecticism and the rigorous mirage of its style.

Renowned artistGareth McConnell adds his indispensable touch to the artwork and video, encompassing the exact image of this record: hypnotic and kaleidoscopic, a celestial trip recorded on an used VHS tape.

Sebastian Russell's latest trick on Fenou turns out to be a beautiful early summer record. For more than 10 years the London-based guitarist is dedicated to electronic music and his creative passion is heard with every track he releases. The A side starts with the title track 'Free Fall", which makes you want to jump to this prancing, easy beat. The catchiness of the tune will etch itself into your memory. Then we meet the graceful 'Hide' with its warm, yet powerful and rich sound. The B side belongs to 'Force", a refreshingly glistening track of sophisticated sound-finesse, which also is the records most danceable tune. As usual this release comes as a 10inch vinyl in a limited edition and numbered by hand.

John Talabot returns on PV with a sublime new track called "Voices". For the B Side Gerd Janson created his very own beat and groove tool, the Version Conga. Special silkscreen print, artwork by Arnau Pi. The track first appeared in an older Fabric edit Version on Gerd Janson's Mix for Fabric.

Early DJ support from San Soda, Dark Sky, Gratts and Kong, Chaos in the CBD, Youandewan

Second release which is more going to the proper label style....Already appreciated by the most italian djs. Tribal Tech with Vocal infusions. The Jungle track is a deep dubbing beat into the Afro Tech style and Mathemba is a perfect Vocal tribal track for the clubs.

This is the relaunch "Limited edition Album" (475 copies only, remastered from the original master tapes) of the Male Productions label. It contains theAoriginal songs of "The True Underground Sound Of Rome" from the rare and sought after EP released in 1991 on "Male Records" plus two unreleased tracks recorded in 1991. In Italy during early 90's after the "disco era" was time for the new born "Underground Music" movement. Male Productions represents the first italian electronic-house independent label, based in Rome and managed by Chicco Furlotti, former club-DJ and organizer of the early italian rave parties. This Album features Stefano Di Carlo and other big names from the italian electronic and house music scene like Leo Young and Mauro Tannino... We can't call this music as deep-house, ambient or techno because it's The True Undergound Sound Of Rome !

Compassion Crew fires up Windows '95 for the three-pronged 'Habitué' - the hardy Dubliner gets in a huff on Habitué I, does it for the trackheads on II, and stops you in your tracks with the mesmerising, meandering Habitué III.

JeanGa & George are composers, producers and music enthusiasts with strange and indecipherable accents.
Their taste in music is as wide as the Amazon and covers everything from Georgian choirs to Detroit Techno, African folk and Belgian New Beat.The music they make themselves is based on electronic repetitions, melodic idiosyncrasies and their strong sense of being European.

Draft brings to you their very first vinyl featuring Vanita and remixes by Chris Lattner and Cesare va Disorder. This inaugural vinyl is a special one. All 4 tracks on this release are guaranteed booty shakers. We are really proud of this project and hope you all enjoy it.

"The third instalment of Braiden's Off Out label arrives via Chunyin, a new dancefloor orientated project by Hong Kong born, Sydney based artist, singer and producer Rainbow Chan. Early support from Benji B, Bill Kouligas, Pearson Sound, Joy Orbison amongst others The lead track of this release, ""Wild Flight"", was the genesis of this project, created as she started to explore the world of murky dancefloor music. The track delivers a raw, punky attitude with a nod to minimal wave, littered with warped organic sounds and samples of Hong Kong new wave cinema. Following this is ""Emporium"", a relentless jacking dancefloor number, syncopated groove laden drums married with airy atmospherics. ""Shi"" closes this EP with a unique and brooding techno inspired track that rolls yet feels as though it's perpetually falling apart at the seams. Vinyl comes with screenprinted and Chinese seal hand-stamped artwork designed by Braiden, illustrated by Chunyin."

"Elephant Moon unveils the latest instalment with a hot new EP from Lee Burton. The Six Dogs resident, has been busy of late with a steady flow of releases on labels like Body Parts , developing his own distinct brand of dubby, cosmic house
On side A, he gets things moving nicely with '15.30 (The Jam)', an instantly catchy, groove-heavy bubbler with shimmering pads and infectious, skipping percussion. '12 Angry Apes' follows up with a slightly more pensive mood, though still maintaining a skip in its step. This one feels as though it's on the verge of an emotional outburst.Over on the flipside the contemplation continues with 'Osmosis', which will open the parts of your mind other tunes just can't reach, taking you away to distant lands where your spirit can be free. The pads and keys alone are enough to transport you from your everyday life into another dimension... fresh! Lastly 'Racily' takes us back to the eighties with a dreamy electro workout that the mighty Drexciya would be proud of. The pace slows, the mood is introspective and the vibe is utterly addictive.
