Jesse Pimenta is a Brazilian-born, LA-grown artist who has previously released on Nous Disques as well as on his own Private Selection imprint. Side A brings two slamming cuts fit for all-out dance floor annihilation whilst Side B delves into more psychotropic yet punkish zones.

Artificial Dance is a new record label from Amsterdam. This is the imprint's debut release. It is the first ever release from young Dutch DJ/producer Job Sifre, previously best known for his fortnightly Antikunst show on esteemed Amsterdam institution Red Light Radio.
Worries offers an extended glimpse at Sifre's unique musical vision. It is one that draws heavily on vintage electronic music for inspiration, but also feels fresh and futurist in tone. In turns dark, industrial, hypnotic and mind-altering, the six-track EP bristles with impactful moments of magic.

Check, for example, the gnarled, Mascara-clad intoxication of Element', where fuzz-laden, end-of-days guitars, snaking Middle Eastern style melodies and gruff vocals wrap themselves around cranky drum machine beats. It's like classic European industrial music re-imagined for the 21st century. Then there's Flotter', whose throbbing arpeggio bassline, lo-fi machine drums and foreboding synthesizer melodies combine to create a chilling but muscular mood.

Sifre's love of electronic body music can be heard within the bustling, all-action bassline, fizzing electronics, razor-sharp guitar riffs and matter-or-fact vocals of Worries'. Our young hero continues in a similar vein on pulsating dancefloor bubbler Intex Excursions', which sounds a little like forgotten heroes of 1980s industrial funk dancing all night with modern Dutch electro maestros.

The twisted, distorted nature of Sifre's far-sighted approach is given further weight via A Dime 4ur Decline', an apocalyptic stroll through skittish machine drums, panicked electronics, modular style bleeps and haunting strings.

A sterling debut outing is completed by the EP's mind-altering moment: Planet Stoner'. As clattering percussion hits and clandestine bass whisk us towards an unknown destination, undulating electronic motifs, spiraling synthesizer lines and drifting Arabic flute samples join forces to ratchet up the intensity. By the time the track reaches its breathless conclusion, you'll be in no doubt about Sifre's production credentials.

Re-Press!! 2nd EP after their great debut "Collar EP" on Elected Tunes. Early support by Stephan Bodzin, Tomcraft, Nudisco, Len Faki, DJ Misjah, Monika Kruse, Franco Bianco, Oliver Klein, James Zabiela, Superstrobe and many more.

1996 - 2016 : 20 years of success with over 20 million of records sold all across the globe! Thanks to key partnerships, during its first 20 years of business Do It Yourself had the pleasure to represent, promote and/or publish artists the likes of Calvin Harris, Sia, Deadmau5, Omi, Eminem, 50 Cent, The Black Eyed Peas, Mary J. Blige, Stromae, Sting, David Bowie, Queen, Shaggy, Puff Daddy, The Roots, Moby, Toni Braxton, Underworld, Emilia, Marilyn Manson, Blink 182, Bob Marley, Lisa Stansfield, Enrique Iglesias, Ricky Martin, Gabrielle, Modjo, Bel Amour, Aqua, The Specials, Sugar Babes, Babybird, Nelly, The Notorious B.I.G., N-Sync, Safri Duo, The Bloodhound Gang, Sonique, 5-Five, Janet Jackson, Snoop Dogg, FloRida, Wiz Khalifa, Nicki Minaj, Dale Saunders, Bruno Mars, Akon, Lil Wayne, T-Pain, Kelly Rowland, Trina, Dwaine, Coolio, Public Enemy, Ola, Mr. Oizo, Inna, Edward Maya, Sak Noel, Guru Josh, Fragma, Paradisio, ATB, Scooter, Lutricia Mc Neal, Armin Van Buuren, Hardwell, Nicky Romero, Roger Sanchez, Todd Terry, just to name a few. Do It Yourself brought to success artists such as GALA (Freed from desire, Let a boy cry), THE SOUNDLOVERS (Run-away, Surrender), REGINA (Day by day, Killing me softly) CAROLINA MARQUEZ (S.e.x.o.), MOLELLA (Discotek people, Love last forever), MIRANDA (Vamos a la playa). All these artists and songs were able to make the history of the dance scene, not only in Italy, all that much to become real 'classics' of the 1990s and 2000s. Do It Yourself is also partner and co-owner of smash-hits such as 'I know you want me' by PITBULL and 'Seek bromance' by TIM BERG (better known as Avicii). To celebrate such an important goal let's go back to origins with a limited vinyl edition (12' - mix) selected by the man who wrote the history of Do It Yourself and beyond: Max Moroldo. 'It was difficult to chose among the hits we released in the past 20 years. Every single has its own history, often an amazing one, so almost all our tracks would be worth a new release - if only I could. I picked up the tracks I am particularly close to (further to 'Alors on danse' by Stromae, 'Lady' by Modjo, 'Bornslippy' by Underworld, 'Played-a-live' by Safri Duo, 'Sandstorm' by Darude, which we do not control anymore), because they were real challenges...and I won! The first two releases want to be a tribute to great int'l artists, which I had the pleasure to bring to success in Italy: GURU JOSH (earthly name Paul Walden, who recently passed away) and CALVIN HARRIS (on my opinion the most complete pop-dance artist in the last 10 years)' Moroldo explains. This is 1st release 500 ltd copies 180 gr. !!!

MR. STATIK With previous contributions from Joe Claussell, Move D, Mr. Ties, Reagenz, Discrete Circuit and their very own AWAY Soundsystem, the Berlin label AWAY achieved a great deal of attention since its first release back in 2015. After having played at their infamous party series before, the Greek all-rounder Mr. Statik now also debuts as a producer on AWAY. As emphasized with releases on such labels as BPitch Control, Amam, or Rotary Cocktail, the resident of Athen's club Six D.O.G.S draws inspiration from pop culture like science-fiction movies as well as comic books, also reflected in his 'Rogue Cherub EP". INFO ROGUE CHERUB EP It's an open secret that Mr. Statik has a strong penchant for working with vocalists, and the title track is no different. Starting off with an ingenious medley assembled through samples, rhythmic elements, and a funk-infused bass-line, 'Rogue Cherub EP' highlights the Greek's unordinary approach on house music. Despite the partly broken, partly playful vibe it's Dave Aju's distinctive voice holding everything together in a serene fashion. No less than the acknowledged master Matthew Herbert himself scales the hybrid down, attaching just the right disco-house touches to create yet another dance floor gem. 'Morning Star' on the flipside tops off AWAY's fifth catalogue number by a well-crafted techno-meets-dub workout unfolding Mr. Statik's versatile core strengths as a producer.

Electro, Breaks & SciFi-Disco! Dagobert's intergalactic fourth long-player on Dominance Electricity,
documents the transition from his former Electro-Breakbeat dominated productions to the genre-crossing
Electro variations of his new project MasterArp.

Covering works since his last release in 2011, the carefully selected songs on Startopology draw the listener
into Dagobert's cosmos of melodic and rhythmic playfulness somewhere between Electro, Breaks, Space-Disco
and Sci-Fi score music.

Electro, Breaks & SciFi-Disco! Dagoberts intergalaktischer vierter Longplayer auf Dominance Electricity
dokumentiert den Übergang seines bisher Electro-Breakbeat-dominierten Stils hin zu den verstärkt
Genre-mischenden Electro-Variationen seines neuen Projekts MasterArp.

Produziert seit seiner letzter Veröffentlichung im Jahr 2011, ziehen die für dieses Album sorgfältig
selektierten Werke den Zuhörer in Dagobert's Kosmos aus melodischer und rhythmischer
Verspieltheit irgendwo zwischen Electro, Breaks, Space-Disco und Sci-Fi Filmmusik.

Magic Waves brings us the first full-length EP from the enigmatic and secretive JaX DaX. 'Retribution' is a dark record that breathes a breath of fresh (rotten) air into techno, re-connecting it with its New Beat and rave roots, and presenting the kind of hammers that would surely make the likes of Joey Beltram or Mental Overdrive proud while bringing any dancefloor or illegally-occupied warehouse to its knees. Watch out for this record, it's limited and hotter than hell!

Things To Come unofficial remix stands here as the main bloody tune ! And beside a cool dancefloor electro techno killer ! MASSIVE !

Contemporary producer E. Myers has self released four limited edition white label 12's since 2015, whilst managing to remain low profile. Whoever they are, we guess they're huge fans of late 1980s Chicago House, Shep Pettibone, Colourbox and most of our reissues. So much that they asked us to re-release their second 12' 'Hate / Love' from 2016 backed with new remix of Hate' made for DarkEntries. Love' kicks off the A-side beats out a wood-cut tattoo of tuff drums rubbed with balloon-squeak synths to sound like Gesloten Cirkel meets Helena Hauff,' said Boomkat. Hate' is a dreamy house number that ultilzes a Roland TR-707 drum machine with a rounded bassline, horns and strings that lift it into the stratosphere. For the new remix of Hate' Myers subtly shifts the pace and deepens the groove, stretching out the song to over 7 minutes of dubbed out New Beat phantasia. All songs have been remastered for vinyl by George Horn at Fantasy Studios in Berkeley. The 12' is housed in a die cut disco jacket that features an original design by Eloise Leigh.

Frigio Records are delighted to announce that Alessandro Parisi is once again donning the darkened robes of Hesperius Draco. Following the acclaimed Cathar Rhythms this supremely talented Italian artist delivers. The five track mini-album continues the Draco search to balance tainted techno, sinister synth and soulful sounds.
The underhanded rumblings of Tronitum Domini' introduces before filth encrusted bass blurs the menacing visage of Mjolnir', claps scarring the already grimacing sounds. To end the first side, the medieval blast of ASI Kingdom (Mitt Hjerte)' is track that surely won´t pass unnoticed. Skies crack with thunder by analogue alchemist Drvg Cvltvre on this interesting remix of Fenrir Eye' which original version ends the release with Blackened clouds build for the intense and tapering approach.

For the 9th instalment in DBA's Dubs series Ikonika and Big Strick square off head to head, following the Hyperdub artist's genre-defying Distractions LP earlier this year. Oral Suspension is an instrumental which switches rough-shod between a UK halfstep crunch and a Hoop Dreams era Chicago bounce. On the flip Big Strick brings his characteristic smooth groove to the table for the remix, which, though laidback, is nevertheless bound to energise the dancers.

Evading the ubiquitous pigeonholes, Ikonika has variously been known for her dubstep innovations, her uk funky experiments on Hum and Buzz and her post-urban sketches for Hyperdub. Meanwhile though an interest in techno and specifically the sounds of the Midwest have underpinned her work.

The first release of the Orakel X-Files series by O-Wells. Vinyl only
.

Strut present a new reissue of Walter Gibbons' 'Jungle Music' compilation LP, the definitive collection of Gibbons' groundbreaking remixes during the heyday of New York's disco era.Starting out as a DJ and known for his skilful manipulation of percussive disco breaks at his Galaxy 21 residency in Manhattan, Gibbons brought this ethic to his remixes from the start with his first outing for Salsoul, a re-work of Double Exposure's 'Ten Percent' which completely disassembled the track for the dancefloor. He developed a knack for drawing the rhythmic essence out of both the brilliant and the mediocre as tracks like Jakki's 'Sun... Sun... Sun' were transformed into unique abstract dancefloor beat edits.The tracks spawned a series of groundbreaking remixes, with many versions only appearing on acetate for his own personal use as a DJ including Gladys Knight's 'It's A Better Than Good Time'. He continued to work with Salsoul (Loleatta Holloway) and West End Records (Bettye Lavette) before branching out to include more leftfield material in his work - collaborations with Loose Joints' Steve D'Acquisto (Sandy Mercer), Steve Standard (Strafe) and Arthur Russell would all follow, a natural fit for Gibbons' uncompromising remix style.

After a short time based in Seattle during the late '70s, where he played at the Sanctuary nightclub, he returned to New York and, in his later years, he discovered God and refused to play records with a negative message. Tragically, he died of an AIDS related illness during the '90s, a largely forgotten figure.

Now revered as a true pioneer of the art of the remix, Gibbons' key releases are brought together on this essential celebration. Package includes sleeve notes by Tim Lawrence, author of the acclaimed 'Love Saves The Day', along with rare photos from across Gibbons' career as a DJ and producer.






[F] C2 | Arts & Craft I've Been Searching (Walter Gibbons 12" Mix)

REPRESSED !
The mighty Shanti Celeste makes her debut for Apron, backed by a killer edit from the one and only Funkineven on the flipside.

130 Limited is a new born label, downtempo techno down to 130 BPM, inroducing the first record from Nico Pluto, from Brittany. 2 solid electro tekhouse tunes, trippy and progressives... Loud sound 45 RPM mastered and cut by Shane The Cutter !

This is the second 12" of a 2-part series of 12"s that will be released digitally as a full-length LP.
After a split single with Muslimgauze and a single of their own on Optimo Trax, we are delighted to present the first Optimo Trax album release by Italy's Underspreche. The album is split across two four- track EPs, released two weeks apart (and also as a complete digital album).
We try to avoid over-hyping our releases, but this one is really fully deserving of the hyperbole I am about to bestow on it. Underspreche first sent me some music a few years ago and seeing them grow and develop has been nothing short of astonishing. I think this is some of the most nuanced and advanced music that Optimo Trax has ever released. There are several dancefloor destroyers here but also music for more developed/leading-edge floors too, as well as some music simply designed to make one's mind melt.

It is very rare that I listen to 4/4 music at home, but this album has been a constant on my hi-fi since it was sent to me.
Super-advanced, organic sampling, inspired vocalisations, acute psychedelic modular sequences, forward- thinking drum programming, this is exactly what I hoped Optimo Trax would be about when I started the label.
From Underspreche's souls to yours.

Previous lauded releases on Italians Do It Better, Bear Funk and Eskimo. The single YAML was released as a 12' in May 2017 and the video premiered by music, fashion and culture mag Blackbook. DJ-producer- sound designer Bottin actually calls La Serenissima home - though he has actually been one of Europe's most hard-working and traveled DJs. Back home he has remixed many top Italian pop artists, and also worked with Benetton's Fabrica.' On his new album, I Have What I Gave, out October 6th on 2MR, Retrogroove, and TIN, Italian musician Bottin outdoes himself. He crafts propulsive, disco-laden scores for films not yet made, and introspective, mind-expanding cuts designed to ensure that people who want to dance never get caught up in conventional experiences. Each moment with Bottin is a memorable one. One thing that sets I Have What I Gave apart from his pioneering Horror Disco and much-loved Punica Fides LPs is that this time around Bottin didn't see to it to create a concept-album structure. Everything came at once during the writing and recording process, which no doubt gives the album its intensity and sense of immediacy. But even if the album didn't come about in a series of tightly crafted experiments, it doesn't sound messy or chaotic. It's just the opposite. Bottin has managed to take bits and pieces of sounds, some short loops and orphaned arpeggios, and a handful of vocal samples, and put them t ogether into an album that unifies 10 songs of divergent trajectories into an outstanding body of work that absolutely kills. Also Available From Bottin: YAML.

Sublabel of Vienna based Leap Records.

Fans von The Knife, Grimes, Goldfrapp oder Little Dragon dürfen hier die Ohren spitzen. Kenner der Alben von Sam Dust ebenfalls! Der junge Brite, der besser bekannt ist als LA Priest und musikalischer Partner von Connan Mockasin als Soft Hair, hat Xenoulas selbstbetiteltes Album nämlich produziert. Xenoula ist Romy Xeno. Ihre Kindheit verbrachte sie in Südafrika, wo sie von der traditionellen Musik der Dorfnachbarschaft sowie den Klängen der Natur geprägt wurde. Aus dieser Zeit stammt ihre Vorliebe für Flora und Fauna und eine gesunde Skepsis gegenüber der technischen Welt. Als sie mit 16 Jahren nach Großbritannien zog, war sie konfrontiert mit einer modernen Welt voller ihr unbekannter und flüchtiger Eindrücke. Gespickt mit Erinnerungen aus ihrer südafrikanischen Kindheit, verwendet sie ihre Musik heute als ein Kontrast- und Kommunikationsmittel mit dieser neuen Umgebung. Die Musik ist ihre Art, die menschlichen Wiedersprüchlichkeiten zu erkunden, die sie auf ihren Reisen durch Europa kennenlernte. Heute lebt Romy im ländlichen Nord Wales.

Lake People, the man with a knack for aural subtleties, is spot-on with his first EP for Uncanny Valley. Over the course of four tracks he showcases a quiet different approach compared to the sophisticated House music the Leipzig based artist released on labels like Permanent Vacation or Connaisseur Recordings. On "Break the Pattern" he relies heavily on the good old Boom Tschak-paradigm of Electro, without completely giving up his trademark sound. "Level Msk" combines staccato-type chords with a stuttering beat that stick in your mind. The acidic "September Futuristic" with its stoic drumming has almost a Krautrock feel to it. On the flipside, the playful "Chords In Chorus" feels like an early contender for this year's summer anthem with chords and acid lines from heaven. The EP closes with "Pull Off", a perfect example for Lake People's ability to compose tracks with an emotional depth.

1x each customer! Born from the rank stench of the city streets, DJ Swagger hits on hard with joy riding electronic jams forged from bullet casings, hub caps and cigarette ash.

Kicking off on Natural Sciences for the first time, 'Greatest Hits' is the ironic sneer from the DIY underground. It's the sound of chains, tar and black exhausts from deep within the suburban rave. Gun shots against busted speaker cabinets. Padded anti-hero b-boy breaks. Muffled street anthems from the back-seat of a midnight cruiser and slammed out acid party music for the youthfully insane.

Highly in demand rare gem , last copy of the 7" sold for 480,00 Euro strictly limited No repress ! Gino Pavan - Magico. Official legit repress of a legendary and impossibly rare italian disco 45 from 1980. Features the 1981 unreleased track "Electrik Flower", recovered from a lost tape.

SUPERMOLL is an electro label from good old Cologne. Its focus lies on
Deep Acid, Techno and Pop. And what a nice blend that actually is.

SUPERMOLL 01 is the first label sampler giving four young Cologne
artists their collective vinyl debut:

A1 Jeandado - Was Wäre Unser Leben Ohne Die Wirren Unserer Jugend
Jeandado opens with a heart-warming, melancholic synth solo that
positions his track clearly in the glorious realms of pop. With striking
toms and a burning bassline this piece tells the story of a life.

A2 Rosainblau - Universum
The A side continues with Universum, a beautifully leftfield perspective
on electronic music. In old memories of a genre called synth pop the
universe unfolds in front of your eyes (and ears).

B1 Ludwig Zibell - Herkulesberg
Ludwig Zibell's track sets a landmark for a very special place in Köln:
the Herkulesberg, a so called "Trümmerberg" of post-war debris in the
center of the city. This special scenery gave the inspiration for his
slowly progressing piece of intense deep techno art.

B2 Diom - Switcheroo
"Switcheroo" by Diom celebrates reduction. Hypnotic chimes and subtle
changes echo the compositions of musicians like Steve Reich and other
representatives of the minimal music scene.
