Animals Dancing continues its quest for world domination with a double A side of Russian intelligence from Moscow's Leonid Lipelis.
As the title would suggest, these two sides come from Lipelis' private arsenal of club tracks, beef'd up and shared with the people after some friendly persuasion.

12 Rhythms as the name already suggests, is a Collection Series on Alma Negra Records. Each Issue is dedicated to a specific rhythm based on its groove stemming from its cultural origins. In a world surrounded by a plethora of grooves and rhythms, we have selected those which influenced us or just simply liked the most.
The first Issue and first release on Alma Negra Records is dedicated to the unmistakable rhythms of Brazil. Growing up surrounded by the rich sounds from traditional to totally experimental; Brazilian Music has heavily influenced our own sound and direction.
Vision
This issue aims to distinguish itself from other compilations and demonstrates important atypical Grooves of Brazilian Culture. Instruments like the Berimbau used in the "Capoeira" or "Berimbau" itself or the carnival strong Batucada Beat has been combined with the mysteries of brazil experimental music heard in the track "Vision".
Hypnotic Experimental Vocals, dub chords combined with an own interpretation of a Batucada Rhythm recorded live in our Studio in Basel, "Vision" is clearly a one of those tracks heard in the heart of the night which is sure to keep those feet moving
to its pulsating beats.
Capoeira
Capoeira is a Dance (Fight) originating from Angola and was developed by Brazilian Slaves to better defend them against violence inflicted by their Masters. As they crafted this martial art, the perfect cover was to create a "dance to music." Every dancer is singer and musician so no one is restricted to any set role. The creation of the unique sound is normally through three Berimbau's and two Pandeiro drums. This demonstrates a classic Capoeira Groove, with this Alma Negra Edit setting out to strike every dancefloor.
Berimbau
A smooth sailing track with variations of Berimbau, that create a trance like vibe when combined with harmonic flutes. This creates the perfect accompaniment as your musical ship illuminates with the sunrise. Underneath, a strong percussion beat brings everything together; a perfect late night track.

Rat Life Records presents Serial Error a Project by Credit 00, Jacob Korn & Sneaker. This outfit was brought to life in 2013 when Red D called for some New Beat style tracks for his "Our Beat Is Still New" Compilation. Flying a bit too low under the radar ever since Rat Life decided to reissue Drum Abuse on a Super Sound Maxi Single. The Track was made in Jacob Korn's headquarter studio / synthesizer museum. The task distribution was hit quickly: Jacob squeezing the acid out of his huge Formant modular system, Credit 00 beating the drums on the Boss DR 660 and Sneaker throwing his unique vocals on top!

Even though we're not paladins of pure concepts, the sound we're currently looking to release usually has a raw, kinda primitive and rough around the edges nature. We're definitely not looking for the generic "soul sample meets a 4x4 beat" kind of edit. The first release is by Mike Simonetti and I would love to have it for sale in your possible. The first 300 copies were completely unknowns with whitelabels and matrixes scratched so nobody knew what it was. We made a repress now which is hand stamped and comes with a sticker on the cover.

Shimza, real name Ashley Raphala, is one of South Africa's brightest young talents. 'Ascendent", his 4 tracks debut E.P. on Cadenza reveals solid production skills and an innate instinct for peak-time bangers. The opening track, 'Congo Congo' is a dark ride over abysmal tom-tom drums, lively percussions and a gloomy bass lead, ignited dramatically by an ensemble of wide synthetic stabs and chords. In its 'Dub- Mix", the drums and the percussion become lighter without diminishing its dynamic tension. The overall weight of the leads and the stabs is reduced, leaving more space to its intense piano and string chords and swinging sub bass. 'Shimza - Secret Melodies' starts with an obscure bass line, but the intense twist of fractioned rolls and arpeggios bring an ascending piano progression that quickly blooms into an uplifting symphony. 'Selector' is a deeper cut that keeps the gaze on the dancefloor: the incessant hand clapping and a cloud of low frequencies bumps unexpectedly drag its hypnotic harmonies into a breath-taking drop.

Cervo is no stranger to producing high quality dancefloor ready House cuts. Released on 13th October, 'Deyo / Kasoa' is no exception to this rule. After a tough period mentally and a formative trip to Ghana, Cervo combines his love for field recordings with his well known take on the classic House structure. The end result is slighter harder than his previous work but signifies his growth and development as an artist. The lead track, 'Deyo', starts as it means to go on. Straight away the punchy and energetic percussions draws you in and remains captivating for the entire track but it's the melody that stands out. The sense of urgency is soothed by looping bass and piano riffs, complimenting each other perfectly throughout. 'Kasoa' is approached differently than the flip 'Deyo', more care and consideration is taken. It slowly builds up with field recordings as the backdrop providing context before allowing a clear and definitive vibe to be established.

* Nan Kolé, producer, DJ and head of influential label on-the-rise, Gqom Oh!, returns to Black Acre for his debut proper with 'Bayefal', after first collaborating with Nervous Horizon's Wallwork on his 'Facts / Fyah' 12' at the back end of 2016.
* Originally from Rome, although now a resident of London, Nan Kolé has been a major player in the expansion of Durban's Gqom sound after discovering it in early 2015. Through his label, Gqom Oh!, he honed in on a network of South African producers operating out of Durban, unlocking the keys to a world of music largely untapped by audiences outside of Southern and Western Africa.
* 'Bayefal', he explains, was made while still living in Rome and was inspired by a group he formed called PepeSoup, which consisted of an Italo-Liberian singer, Karima 2g, and Senegalese percussionist and singer, Moustapha Mbengue. 'For me, he (Mbengue) was a mentor and taught me a lot spiritually but also mentally', Kolé explains, 'and without his hard work I wouldn't be here for sure. This track is dedicated to him, as he's a Muslim Bayefal.' A joyous, steadfast drum workout made in the carnival spirit, 'Bayefal' also serves as an ode to his love for both West African rhythms and more specifically, the Gqom sound.
* On the flip, 'Malumz' — backed up with two dark, brooding remixes by Durban's Citizen Boy and crew, Formation Boyz — is another track rooted in personal experience. 'Malumz is a tribute to my Gqom Oh! family', Kolé explains. 'They call me Malumz, which in Zulu means 'Uncle'. The first time Citizen Boy called me 'Malumz', it was overwhelming — I felt a change in my relationship with all the guys, because they started to treat me more as a family member, which meant a lot.'
* The original mix, a stark, pulsing drum-track dotted with playful whistles and bleepy sampling again celebrates Kolé's fascination with the Gqom sound, while first Citizen Boy and then Formation Boyz flip 'Malumz' with harsher, grittier tones and crunching, industrial textures.

A journey to the rhythmic Afro-Caribbean roots of Colombia fuelled by the hypnotic power of African house beats" - Sounds and Colours.
Colombian Afro-Caribbean House band Ghetto Kumbé is back with another banging 5 tracks EP., produced with Uk based The Busy Twist.
Formed in 2015, Ghetto Kumbé is composed of three of the most skilful musicians from the popping modern Colombian scene, all of indigenous and African origins .
Multi-instrumentalist El Guajiro' also sings in the amazing salsa band La 33' and used to perform in Richard Blair's Sidestepper'.
Having worked with legendary Toto La Momposina or Quantic's Ondatrópica among many others, Chongo's percussions are truly part of the Colombian musical heritage.
Doctor Keyta', for his part, has dedicated his life to learning how to master the art of playing African percussions.
Soy Selva' transalted as I'm Jungle' is about the ancient people of Colombia, their traditions, their relations with mother nature, universal respect and ritual dancing.
However, there's much more about this EP than the ultimate innovative act from the emerging Colombian melting pot.
The featuring of Ghanaian singer Zongo Abongo on Dagbani Dance' takes the listener even deeper in Africa than the band's previous productions, and the involvement of young and talented, London native producer The Busy Twist put together three continents in this unique musical adventure.
Feel the gaitas, marimbas, and percussions of the Caribbean Coast of Colombia, the enchanting voices of Africa and the powerful electronic beats from the UK bass music scene.

The result is a record with 4 singularly different tracks, blending cosmic and percussive sounds in a variety of styles, and featuring the bewitching voices of Bulgarian women on the title track 'Dali Bear' which has had the most support so far.

'Chico Buarque Construção Revisited' by L_cio is a beautiful debut project part of a DOC series of releases combining classic Brazilian names with DOC artists and producers.
L_cio (Laercio Schwantes) the man with the transverse flute known for some of the freshest and unique tracks coming out from Brazil is behind this gemstone.
Increasingly building a legacy of fans following his live performances and recent releases on DOC Records (Vazio; Traffic; People Talk; Schwantes), this man is a non-stoppable 30 hours machine gun.
On this long awaited 2-track limited edition vinyl release, L_cio and Gui Boratto kept the roots of this classic track 'Construção'. However they added all the proper elements of a techno dance floor knockout. By inserting malicious baselines, flutes and strings they generated aggressive melodies while keeping all characteristics of this epic song.
Voted as the greatest Brazilian song by Rolling Stones magazine, 'Construção was originaly recorded by Chico Buarque in 1971 with production by Roberto Menescal. Released during military dictatorship, Chico Buarque criticizes the way of life of the Brazilian workers, comparing them to machines.
The song is known for its interchangeable last words, used 'as if they were pieces of a board game', as said by Buarque.
Generatiions apart, Construção (L_cio & K_ri Version)' and 'Construção (L_cio & Boratto's Deconstructed Mix)' are the first ever authorized remixes in over 45 years.
L_cio the latest dance floor brazilian soldier, a menacing builder of beats completes an epic turnnig point by editing and lapidating a classic poetry.
With a B Side dub version beutifully crafted by label boss Gui Boratto, this limited edition pearl is finally here for our joy!

Toy Tonics' MUSHROOM HOUSE series brings together different shades of afro-weirdo-psychedelic vibes in dance music. All tracks have been made exclusively for Toy Tonics. The musical range is wide: The third EP goes from Arabic guitars to Nubian chants and looots of percussions. The bass drum is four-on-the-floor, but switches from midtempo (Kiwi: We are here) to classic New York LoFi -Disco grooves (Ponty Mython). The other 2 tracks on the EP feature an emptier vibe: Less toms - more Drum machines. More Techno. Red Axes deliever probably one of their weirdest works. Their Munk rework is pure craziness. The melodies come from another space. The last track on the EP is made by old Toy Tonics friends from Milano: The Barking Dogs. They teamed up with Tom Trago in the basement studio of the great record store they run in Milan: Serendeepity Records. They are known for selling obscure, but classy music for dance floors and that's what they do when the make music on their own. Like on "Your High": An obscure groove meets a sloppy bassline and stoned vocals.

Back fighting, kicking and beating as strong as or perhaps even stronger than ever before, Ivan 'Mamao' Conti is releasing a brand new solo album next year. Now fitted with a new iron hip- thanks to the immense generosity of his fan base who crowdfunded the operation - the Azymuth drummer still remains one of the greatest and outright funkiest drummers alive anywhere in the universe as he enters this new bionic era. As people of earth are not yet quite ready to hear the explosively ethereal cosmic samba of his new album just yet, we're easing into it with a series of appropriately propulsive percussive jazz-headed remixes. For the second 12' of the series we've enlisted two of the most on-fire producers in Germany: Max Graef and GlennAstro, along with one of the UK's brightest ascendant producers.

Remixed by Jon Dixon of Underground Resistance's Timeline, APF first EP was released by once legendary producer Orlando Voorn (Fix, Game One, Baruka).
