House Vinyl New Releases - News

4 track techhouse ep mit hypnotisch / groovig - jazzigem Einschlag, incl Lopazz & Eddie Zarook and Lula Circus Rmxs

After delivering a well-received remix for Slavaki's Walking In the Snow EP on Elusive's previous release, we welcome Korablove with this beautiful record entitled Slowmotion. Roman Korablev's first performances took place in St. Petersburg in 1996. He quickly became resident at Par.spb, Red Club and Decadence, while playing in many others clubs of the northern capital, as well as some well-known festivals such as Stereoleto, East Beat, Nu Jazz Festival and Plug'n'Play. Korablove's album entitled The Secret of the Third Planet, was released via Plug & Play Records in 2007. This album sold well all over the world, causing great interest from the fans of deep / tech house and dub techno. At the same time, Korablove began to collaborate with Anton Kubikov (SCSI-9, Pro-Tez Records). In January 2008, Pro-Tez Records presented Roman's first vinyl as Korablove, named You Made Me Feel, and in 2011 he finally released a full length album: Sociopa th's Diary, which is the fourth release on the label.

Many other labels such as: Night Drive Music, 3rd Wave Music, 2600 Records, General Records, KGBeats, Plexi Records, Algorithmik, Electronica and Apparel Music got also marked by Korablove's appearances. His story with Apparel Music developed rapidly; the Italian label put out three of his releases, with remixes by artists like Yapacc, Ekkohaus, Tornike and Gennaro Mastrantonio. In 2010, Roman's side-project Barrytone was born, designed for experimenting with house music and jazz. Barrytone is already out on Pro-Tez and Apparel Music, with the debut album Argonauts.

In addition to his own creativity, Korablove participated in a joint project named Dubolom with Yegor KhZ, and was the ideologue of the duo Rybalove, with the help of Katya Ryba. A seminal work is currently under way on the audio-visual ambient project Ko.M.A, together with Alex Meshkov aka Nooncat (Trapez, Treibstoff, Trenton, Dilek Records) and VJ Marie

Here's what we know about Luv*Jam: known to his mum as Andrew Cole, he's a house producer and DJ from Wrexham, North Wales. Enigmatic though he is, Luv*Jam has revealed more than enough personality between wax grooves. His generous string of white-hot releases on such labels as We Play House, Phonica, Skylax, Lany Recordings, and his own Crow Castle Cuts do more than enough talking.

Wilde Calm is proud to present String Figures, the latest project from Pocketknife working under his new moniker Boonlorm. A ten track album featuring 'piano not piano' house music created solely with a prepared piano and raw drum programming that pays homage to Chicago, Detroit, and the 20th century avant-garde. String Figures is 'screw music' in the most literal sense with direct ties to the late composer John Cage who created the first prepared piano pieces by inserting objects into the strings of a grand piano. The sound that resonates is a rich combination of tonal, atonal and percussive timbres. String Figures buzzes, vibrates, and jacks all at once.

limited to 300 copies...... First new album from the Echospace duo since the critically acclaimed "Liumin" double album on Manchester's beloved Modern Love imprint. The sonic structure of this album was the basis for what later became "Liumin" released on Modern Love but this exploration is something all together different, left untreated and unprocessed from its original 1/2" tape to preserve the natural organic state of the recording.

massive remixes of SOLEE's masterpiece PLATINUM, by GABRIEL ANANDA, LEEVEY, DANY HOLM and IDIOT IDOLS!!!

omas Barfod is fascinated with the idyllic wasteland, unveiling 'Salton Sea', an LP that draws from the concept of urban decay. The producer and drummer of the popular Danish group WhoMadeWho, with a history of solo and collaborative releases for Get Physical, Turbo, Gomma, and Kompakt, Barfod's latest full-length balances contrasts. At times bright with delicate pop melodies, 'Salton Sea' boldly submerges into dark, morose rhythms, juxtaposing the graceful and desolate characteristics of the Californian lakebed the album shares its name with.

Opener "D.S.O.Y." wastes no time jumping out the gates with fervent energy and upbeat animation. After the LP's first single, "Broken Glass", "Came To Party" marks the height of the night, reaching a tipping point with big room dynamics. As the album continues its flow, the somber pop of "Till We Die" dwells in the late-night afterglow, while "November Skies" picks up the pieces to soar in an airy melody with vocals from Sweden's Nina Kinert. The frenetic, sinister Moroder disquietude of "Nighthawke", which features vocals from New York film Composer Lydia Ainsworth, and guttural pulse of "Python" provide tense codas to 'Salton Sea'.

Either spatial and seductive or frightening and macabre, 'Salton Sea' engages multiple moods, jarring the listener and bringing them deeper into it's shadowy pop. With remixes from Mark E, M.A.N.D.Y., Shlohmo, Salva, Kasper Bjørke, Suzanne Kraft and more, 'Salton Sea' looks to be one of the premiere electronic releases of 2012.

Yeahhhh!!! New massive dancefloor killer track on Ton liebt Klang with funny german vocals. The track is remixed by Arts & Leni (Ton liebt Klang, Deich), Felix Bernhardt (Afulab, Der Hut) and Tonmotiv (Plattenbau, Lust und Freude) !

Early support by Rene Bourgeois, Oscar, Lars Wickinger, Someone Else, Patrick Lindsey, Nudisco, Paco Osuna, Timo Jahns, Jonas Wahrlich, Howard & Stereo, Rich Vom Dorf, Glanz & Ledwa, Compact Grey, Alex Kennon and many more.

Finally on Vinyl: Bacalao & Sonne return to Kalimero with a three course menu pressed into the black gold. Their massive "Don't Stop Pushin EP" is keeping all its promises with two straight forward club tracks, both filled with soulful vocal lines driven by hard hitting synths. As one of their most beloved live tracks of the past months, Bacalao & Sonne are now releasing a true dancefloor treasure by bringing out "Pushin". The blasting synth line is growing throughout the track till it explodes in an athmospheric breakdown. "Don't Stop" comes along with this cheesy chant which is constantly competing with the synth chord harmony that is getting more and more dramatised and resonant throughout the song. The remix by the well-known dj -and producer team Kollektiv Ost (3000°) is much more deeper than the original and convinces through its incredible groovy bassline. The elements are the same but the duo's approach is completely different: a remix like it's meant to be.

"If Sleazy Beats Recordings didn't invent a sub-genre of house music, it unquestionably defined one. Specializing in the lower echelons of the bpm range, the fledging label offered up records from little-known producers the likes of Eddie C, Tornado Wallace, Francis Inferno Orchestra, Daniel Solar and a whole host of others - each and every one of whom who would go on to become headline attractions in their own right. Over the course of 3 short years and 10 stellar releases, SBR sold every record they manufactured and became essential early-evening dancefloor fodder for deep house and disco connoisseurs the world over. With a slight but definite shift in feel and tempo, SBR is superceded by a new series of records - Sleazy Beats Black Ops - and this breathtaking inaugural release by Rotterdam native Ben La Desh. Fans of previous SBR records will instantly enjoy Motion on the A side - a soft, seductive and hypnotic mid-tempo loop, teased throughout by a sexy female vocal sample that soul fans might recognize, all the while building towards a sumptuous break that proves a proper highlight moment of the record. Stop That Groove Girl on the flip moves through the gears but continues with the heads-down, peaktime disposition. Lush multilayered grooves and subtle stabs are driven effortlessly through a cacophony of harmony and key changes, each individual melody taking its own turn to dance front and centre - and the entire ride arranged to literal perfection. Closing track Bohicon Funk is a proper curveball. Quivering jazz flute and slices of peculiar tribal samples are intertwined with a wonky offkilter groove to create three minutes of eyebrow-raising quirkiness - right before dropping into deep low-slung oblivion with a sizeable nod or two to some house vibes of old. If this one doesn't get a party started, pack up and go home. It's a huge triumph of a release, by a producer who's confident in his incredibly detailed sound and absurdly alluring grooves. And where nobody ever did beatdown quite like Sleazy Beats Recordings - you get the feeling nobody is gonna do deep house quite like Sleazy Beats Black Ops" Mark Whyte - ISODISCO

It is a huge pleasure for Etruria Beat to welcome to the family, for the first time on an Italian label, Martin Swanstein, better known as Martinez. The Swedish/Danish is best known for his release on labels such as Moon Harbour, Cadenza, Lomidhigh, Love Letters from Oslo and La Pena. Martinez's first release, that kick started his carrier in 2000, was his "Laidback Grooves EP" on the notorious Chicago based Deep-House label Guidance Recordings.
Supported by:Locodice, Richie Hawtin, Mathias Kaden, Mosca, Ryan CrossonShlomi Aber, Franco Cinelli, Reboot, Lee Curtiss, Davide Squillace,Ray Okpara,tINI, Oxia, Luca Bacchetti, Karotte, Alex Celler, Ambivalent, Gary Beck, Gregor Tresher, Kiki, Behrouz,Thomas Schumacher, Danny Howells, Riva Starr, Layo, Smokin Jo, Diesel, Mauro Picotto, Carlo Lio, Danny Howells, Tiefschwarz, Slam and more.

With a little wink in their eyes and a lot of "soul" in their pants the two The Glitz guys are looking for their friends and especially "All The Ladies". Oh my God! In an excellent manner maestro Simon Baker shakes the clubs with his fantastique remix once again. The second Original track is dedicated to the wonderfully deep summer-vibes of "Windy City". Smile and dream!

Romanian record label Understand has reached its third installment and it continues to deliver massively, in the same respect as the previous two.
Understand 003 'Arhiva EP' features two tracks, one on each side, from Romanian veteran Rhadoo.

The A side 'Cum Oare' is the more dancefloor oriented of the two, having a fast tempo hypnotic quality to it that is sure to keep many dancing in the early mornings. This track really grabs your attention to the organized chaos of intricately modulated sounds for the whole length.

The B side 'Geemac' is more stripped down and raw sounding, a welcome touch of deepness from Rhadoo. The tempo is lower but that just gives the track more room to breathe in between a thin melodic chord and a female chorus. As we've become accustomed with Rhadoo's unique works, his shortened claps and steady hats give this track enough groove to power it up. An abundance of filter sounds, noises and modulated voice keep you well into it.

This then is a masterpiece of the minimalist kind that keeps Rhadoo and this young record label at the forefront of underground electronic music with some much needed uniqueness that helps inspire many in times like these, when all we seem to hear is copy-cats and never ending rip-offs.

Here is the first Tablon's release ! Product of a collaboration between several artists, Tablon 001 is particularly linked to Greece.

For his first vinyl release, Arnaud comes with a brilliant organic track, Colloc Vinzaïe. Manipulating his own recordings with talent, he creates a sensitive and unique piece. The greek duo we sink delivers a booming remix, telling a certain story with some retro touches.

The B face is made of two featurings. "Disused", composed with his friends Cleonce and Mos Eisley, builts a planning, ambient but as well for to the floor groove. "I Keep Control" with the greek singer Matina Sous Peau's intervention finishes this release with a very intimistic atmosphère.

The photographer Nefelie conceives the visual identity of this project. Putting a face on Colloc Vinzaïe, she gives it its proper autonomy

Black Key Records continues an excellent run with its third deep house release, 'Metacoma' by Chamboché which is backed by two remixes from Underground Quality/Tsuba Ltd artist BLM.

Following tracks and remixes from Andy Ash, Ethyl, Jonny Cade and Ugly Drums, this is another must-check from one of London's newest imprints.

FORMAT - 180 gram white vinyl LTD 300 (no digital release)

Powell returns to Diagonal to present five new rhythm tracks that reaffirm the label's preoccupation with jagged No Wave and
forward motion, contemporary electronics. Shards of analogue noise splinter around the fractured movements of the broken
drum-work, evoking the off-kilter jams of Blurt and 23 Skidoo as much as the linear surge of cold, hard EBM.

Aus Music's sister label Simple Records returns hot on the heels of their recent EP from UK production duo, Dusky. This time around, London-based Glaswegian, Sei A (a.k.a. Andy Graham) takes the helm. Sei A's profile has been building ever since the release of his debut album, .Editing Shadows,' in 2008 which received a rapturous reception throughout the music press. A steady stream of single releases followed, as well as a second LP (.White Rainbow'), each further developing his hybrid-House, techno and bass-heavy sound, helping to capture the attention of some of the best underground labels out there including Missive, Buzzin' Fly, Kompakt (with whom he has just released a very well received 12) and Turbo. On this new EP, Sei A's strong signature production values remain at the heart of the record, which melds deep and forward-thinking techno with rich textures and moody atmospherics. Swedish DJ, producer and Studio Barnhus boss, Axel Boman steps in to provide a superb remix, which brings the EP to a perfect close.

the first release of this new sublabel from thokadee !!! all releases comes as limited 10" vinyl pressing !!! contains the first release of rubbertrap which is really a megabomb !!! play loud and enjoy the sound !!!!!!

Highlive are introducing themselves with an interesting mixture of musical visions thru their first Physical & Digital EP accurately titled "A Thing Called Fusion".

Strong and clear structures are whipping you over the dance floor, no-holds-barred! "New Fashion" is additionally re-fashioned 2 times for your listening pleasure.

Jakob Seidensticker and Bardia Salour are running a special path since almost one year, releasing only unique tracks on underground cutting edge labels.
We know Jakob from the first collaboration on SIC008 with Wareika's 'Wonderland Remix', and since the first meeting we knew there was more to develop together.
This time Seidensticker comes along with Bardia and Danilo Schneider. Both were already tested for the first 2 issues on Enough Records. Francesco Assenza joins the consolidated team with a hypnotic remix, which will be released as a digital exclusive track.

Cesar Merveille first joined the Cadenza team in 2009 with the outstanding ep .Descarga', produced alongside fellow artist Pablo Cahn and garnering high critique from industry and public alike.

Even the biggest secrets will come out eventually! And so we are very excited to announce the next in the series of Dessous' "Best Kept Secrets" - Volume 3 no less! Over 2 CDs Dessous' Boss Steve Bug and Phonique have hand-picked the best recent Dessous' tracks alongside some of the more illustrious B-sides, album tracks and hidden gems from the recent back-catalogue.

With this label there is a strong emphasis placed on longevity - Superfiction is not about trends. The label's releases will be influenced by the tastes and personal acknowledgment of the Italoboyz and their musical backgrounds; their adventures in record collecting over 20-plus years and their uniquely individual style, whilst simultaneously leaving the door open to new artists and ideas. As Marco succinctly puts it "We don't have any preconceptions, we are open to many styles of music - as long as we believe is quality ." This honest openness combined with a strong sense of identity means their releases will certainly reflect what their approach to electronic music is.
Superfiction, far from being purely a means to releasing music without compromise or external limitations, is also a concept in its own right. As a platform, Superfiction is set to become a musical community for fellow DJs, musician friends and producers; facilitating collaborations and incubating new projects in an atmosphere of pure creativity, without the rigidity of pre-determined concepts and corporate agendas. Superfiction will also be expanding into club nights, where Fede and Marco will invite their label artists to perform, alongside friends and people who appreciate the meaning of a good party.
Superfiction is a concept that subconsciously started over 20 years ago and, as it's aged, aims to stay eternal and timeless. Superfiction launches on 13th July 2012 with a release party at Basing House in Shoreditch, London.

Almost two years after his stunning debut album release, John Roberts is back with a wonderful journey into sounddesign, sample research and contemporary club music.

"Style is The Answer" is the first single from Mash's forthcoming album for Glasgow Underground. Released as a limited (200 only), hand-stamped & spray-painted, 12".
"Style is the answer to everything," booms the gravelled American drawl over Mash's bass-house groove. The Bukowski monologue continues, "To do a dangerous thing with style, is what I call art", and develops into one of the finest examples of spoken word house up there with Sagat's "Fuk Dat" or DJ Duke's "12 Minutes of Dreams". Early supporters include; Francois K, Seth Troxler, Agoria, Marc E, Round Table Knights, Pezzner, Tom Flynn and Untold. Radio support comes from Rob Da Bank, Andi Durrant & Mash himself.
Mash (real name Martyn Henderson), broadcasts on Capital FM every Friday from 2am to 5am. His show is known for playing the best in underground house, bass & techno. Recent featured acts have included Disclosure, MK, Andrew Weatherall, Maya Jane Coles & Maceo Plex. He has released on labels such as Dirt Crew and Blue Black as well as on his own Tracktion and CompactDisco Dot Net labels. His single 'Somebody's Property' (featured in i-F's classic mixed up in Dublin '06) has recently been re-released with new mixes from Sei A, Ooft!, Kevin McKay & Rob Etherson.

LTDLTDLTDLTDLTDLTDLTD. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE !!!
Very ltd copies for this arpiar label ! One per customer.

Romanian record label Amphia have just released their third vinyl and it is very far from your run of the mill record. The label owners, Vlad Caia & Cristi Cons, are showcased here in their collaborative form under the project name SIT.

A side 'Channeling' is a very pleasant listening experience full of depth and grace. The beat and bass take the center stage here while everything else is kind of muted and carefully filtered just waiting to be discovered. Unlike the A side, most of the drum elements are acoustic in nature. An element that is never hidden here is the complex array of melodic atmospherics. The three minute long outro gives you a chance to reflect upon some of the elements in greater detail and leaves you feeling cooled and relaxed.

B side 'Ex' has a very industrial, feel to it right off the bat. Aside from the hypnotic 4/4 beat we have a very playful bassline, bright reverbed synthetic drum elements that are carefully crafted in sound and well placed in the structure of the sound, giving the track a smooth, rolling feel. A detuned pad helps complete this beauty's slightly darker melodic character.

This is then a very effective record in the sense that it perfectly showcases what the dynamic duo are capable of, complex and mesmerizing at the same time.

finally repressed! If we had to name the most successful and most important tracks in our label history, Kollektiv Turmstrasse's 'Tristesse' would
definitely be one of them. This extraordinary piece of music became an instant classic, also for the guys of KT. Perhaps partly
responsible for the success however, is also a little video made by KT fans, which features a cut version of the Firebird Suite from
Walt Disney's Fantasia 2000. The music and the visual material fit together so well, that many people believed this video was made
especially for 'Tristesse'.

Mihalis as the label owner is the 1st that will deliver the mix with teased throughout with samples from some of the latest materials plus some hot unreleased tunes. Seventy minutes in a disc that leaves you feelings that will remind you the good old days

Oliver Huntemann follows the release of his artist album 'Paranoia' with the next instalment of the PLAY! Series. The fourth edition is recorded live from the 'Roxanne Parlour' in Melbourne Australia, and is preceded by a new EP release. The PLAY! series

Big techno track from Skatebard just in time for summer + a exclusive 12" mix by The Knights Of Jumungus (Mungolian Jet Set)
This time Untz Untz have got the closely associated Skatebard to deliver nothing less than a catchy techno track. Although the track consists only of a bassline, some percussion and some 909, it still works like a charm on the dance floor and you will even find yourself humming along to it. And how many techno tracks can you say that about 'Confirmation Bias' is a marathon clocking in at almost 14 minutes. Not a minute too long.
On the B side we have a extensive rework of 'Reindeer Salsa' from The Knights Of Jumungus. You might know them better as Mungolian Jet Set, but here they are operating in their capacity as Knights from planet Mung. They are taking us deep into the jungle and doesn't let us out again until the early morning with their mix. Jungle as in the forest kind, not the genre. This is seriously experimental stuff and a truly unique rework.
