The new PGSounds on Sued Records.
Recorded at PG Studio 2020
By SVN & PG

Snad continues to break new ground in his mad prolificacy. The stunning sonic precision of Akufen collides with the funky rhythmic sensibility of Titonton from the very first tune here. The blue chords on First Flake float over a bumpity house groove; The Extract and Flaw inject breaks into the flow. Completely of this moment, yet with an unmistakable timelessness, Snad's distinctive balancing act is a remarkable success.

Aesthetic goes from strength to strength and keeps the momentum going with this big ep from TIJN.

Part five of Hivern Discs' Fragments compilation. While compilations tend to look backwards, 'Fragments' is far from being a retrospective. Since its launch in 2008, Hivern Discs has favoured a documentary approach, capturing the most vital and exciting sounds within its orbit at each particular moment. In keeping with the ethos of the label, this extensive compilation, comprising 29 new tracks across six 12?s, offers a panoramic glimpse of Hivern's present and gives indications as to its near future. The artists featured comprise both fresh and familiar faces; some of them have been a foundational presence since the beginning (John Talabot, Pional, Marc Pinol), others are recent acquaintances (Epsilove, Fantastic Man, Inga Mauer, Samo DJ). Together the compilation makes for a snapshot of Hivern's current identity, with a wide array of names and projects connecting the dots between the sounds, moods and ideas that continue to inspire and move the label today. Hivern was born a decade ago as a platform to celebrate a shared sensibility beyond any semblance of categorization. And that's what this collection of music is all about.

'We continue our journey into a new musical chapter as we present the first instalment of our vinyl only series. From the off we set out to bring a dark, yet groovy energy in the form of Vadim Oslov. Deriving from France he has built a reputation for his signature percussive style with deep obscure baselines; accompanied by influences from contemporary music and organic sounds to create mysterious experimental atmospheres with a minimal touch. He sets the tone perfectly for the first three tracks with a consistency to his unique sound.

Needing no introduction to the underground minimal scene, we are pleased to welcome Vid as he provides us with a driving remix filled with twisted organic sounds conducted with sharp, crispy drums to finish off the EP in good fashion. For now we will let the music do the rest of the talking, enjoy.'

Watermelon Music is a Barcelona based label, mother of the renown Slice releases. This red marbled vinyl limited to 300 copies features 3 original tracks from Neik, Pierre Codarin and Triad.

WaM01 has already early supports from tINI, Christopher Ledger, Giuliano Lomonte, Janeret, Maher Daniel, Cesar Merveille, Steve O'Sullivan, Mihigh, Andrey Pushkarev, Voigtmann, Nima Gorji, Ferro, Melodie, Herck, DoubtingThomas, Jorge Caiado, Octave, Grego G, Alejandro Fernandez, userUNKNWN, Mihai Popoviciu, Lola Palmer, Chklte.

In 2017, Markus Homm and his romanian partner in crime Mihai Popoviciu, successfully launched our Still Hot label with their "Insomnis EP". Followed by his solo releases "Don't Know Why" and "Pleasure", we are now looking forward to the Still Hot 20, which features two great original tracks, as well as a superb Mihai Popoviciu remix.

The title track "Once again" is reminiscent of the hit "Insomnis". A playful arpeggio gives the track a nice vibe, paired with dub sounds, vocal shreds and a groovy house bassline a la Homm.

Mihai's remix is close to the original, but gives the track a more aggressive touch.

The deep house track “Bora" closes the SH-20 and we are super happy about this great package for our anniversary release

Having delivered two outstanding EPs and a landmark triple compilation, Portugal's Pluie/Noir now returns with its first full-length album. Assigned with the enviable task is
enigmatic German producer The Marx Trukker, who has thus far kept us on our toes with a string of high-quality EPs on a handful of respected independent imprints.
With a natural affinity for experimental soundscapes that challenge dancefloors, Pluie/Noir offers the perfect platform for him to really express himself.

As much a palette of textures as it is a dance-focused collection of tracks, Couldn't See Too Clear For Edges is a kaleidoscopic and utterly transfixing listen all the way through.

The very first track, Alongside ashortside' (A1) is infused with the sort of jazzy, impulsive flavours that are part of the album - and the label's - DNA. But the tempos ebb and flow, at
times withdrawing all intensity ( The Gin Bay Hoss Ballad' (A2)), before cascading into tightly compressed microhouse rhythms ( A Kind Shaped Mind' (A3)) and other more
expansive 4x4 examinations: Couldn't See Too Clear for Edges (Two Movements)' (B1),
As Rivers Stand' (C1). Regardless of the occasionally dramatic shifts, the album never
once loses its focus. Minor Belongings' (C3) is arguably the album's finest creation in
terms of a true artistic indulgence. Dreamy and deeply absorbing, it feeds into the album's
powerful finale, Blaue Drift' (D1), which is one of the more aggressive works on show here.
As we've come to expect, Pluie/Noir again challenges what can be achieved within the parameters of dance music by empowering its carefully selected repertoire of artists.
As standard, the album will come as a limited pressing, this time around of transparent green vinyl, with a beautiful hand-drawn black and white artwork cover, ensuring this is as collectible
as it is listenable.o

Pretty Bouncy is a sub-label from Love & Loops Records.
In this new adventure we are focused on something we describe like Micro-Bumping-Groovy-Housy-Music.

The first V.A includes music from Prodot, Miguel Puente, Agus Ferreyra & Trentz and label owner Ale Castro.

After almost a year of thoughtful insight, multiple preparations and organizational rebooting,
Pluie/Noir is looking at a bright new year with several side-projects at hand and a fresh set
of steady releases. Experimental Media is one of those side-projects, A new home for
free-styled, intimate works for well established or underrated, unknown artists. The first
release of Experimental Media was a double-cassette compilation that joined 20
artists on a musical sandbox with a bit of everything, and a story for everyone.
Volkan Akin is a fresh name in the scene that already buzzed some radars worldwide
and succeeded in impressing and released his music in well established imprints like
Sammy Dee's Ultrastrech where he had his brilliant debut with a Villalobos remix. With
Sinister' he skims away from his usual stripped down minimalistic grooves and presents
us two tracks of lush, intimate works of deep textures, analog machine love-making noises
and intricate drum arrangements with very personal tones. And while the A side Sinister'
keeps us on edge with a virtually consistent momentum of suspense and a very conven-
iently sinister mood, the flipside Atest' takes us on a ride between the high skies and the deep
seas, on a seamlessly neverending loop of peaceful pads and very addicting dreamy tones.
This very special limited release comes in a unusual but deliciously collectible transparent
yellow 10' vinyl with a remarkable and equally sinister painting by New York-based artist Emily
Marchesiello, art director and co-Founder of the Galerie Project. She specializes in fantasy
animal portraiture art, via ink, water color and oil paint.

Gary Romalis returns on HOUSEWAX. This time he brought with him Frole Boss, Lello di Franco on board. Together they present us the "Pressure EP". Big piece of House Music - worth to check!

Limited colored vinyl. Including Sepp and Youandewan
remixes

Ark To Ashes label boss Shadi Megallaa got some down-time from his Dubai record shop, The Flip Side, to produce this EP. It features 2 original productions with one being a collaboration with fellow Egyptian & Dubai resident Omar Fayyad.

The remixes on the EP come courtesy of Rhauder with his signature subaquatic dub techno & another of Shadi’s friends, the prolific electro wizard Reedale Rise. Ark To Ashes has returned & it’s not looking back.

Düve is a very mysterious project, probably due to the intense (albeit exotic) eastern folk instrumentation that populate their sonic structures. René Audiard & Ali Çakir have been exploring a bit of it all from crunchy techno grooves to emotionally charged slow drives, and
together they managed to create a very peculiar sonic balance that captivates from the moment it passes our ears.

Düve's Hargate' is a four-part voyage through the intricate musical roots, complex poli-rhythms and warm musicality of the eastern mediterranean lands. 'Esti' (A1) starts the EP in pure instrumental glory. Played by Adam Birson, the melody from the Oud is loud,
ethereal and emotionally charged, topped with sparkles of modulated synth patterns and pulsing noises for full meditative effect. The EP's title track 'Hargate' (A2) is soaked in a sort of nostalgia for sun-bathed Turkish soils, but under it there's a ever-moving train of
remarkable rhythmic endulgence and a very human sense of groove. A tour-de-force in balance between musicality and arrangement that stays with you like fata morgana.
The flip-side goes deeper and darker in ambience. While 'Yek Tas' (B1) feels like a 4-by-4 hichhicker's guide through underground Istanbul and built around the tension and release
of drum-echoes and reverberized pads, 'Sehayat' (B2) brings back the sound (and emotion)
of Ali's darbuka/santur and Soren's complex drum arrangements for a slow, dreamy drive.
This EP was visually interpreted by Juli Jah in a hand-made artistic depiction of Istanbul,
extraordinarily fitting to this installment of an ever strengthening series of releases Pluie/Noir
collectors grew accustomed to. Limited Pressing.
Japan: the land of the rising sun and one of the worlds biggest havens for creative,
forward-thinking musical freedom. Masters of a infinite number of stripped down, funk
infused brands of electronic music, the japanese crews of music makers are usually teams
of noble perfectionists.
Consistently shining a bright guiding light on the japanese scene, Radiq (aka Yoshihiro
Hanno) remains one of Japans best exports and the reflection of what it means to be a true
musician while managing his own japan-talent-only imprint Op.Disc with wit and will.
Rhapsody' adds to the chameleon's release catalog a 4-tracker of deep musicality, expansive
4x4 examinations and textured realms that ebb and flow between dance-focused sonatas and the
kaleidoscopic intimate travels, and ultimately begging a listen all the way through. The title
track 'Rhapsody' (A) is Yoshihiro's signature exploration of humanized rhyrhms, crisp claps
and deep low-ends that ebb and flow with a very peculiar organic steadiness. Circulatory
Breathes' (B) uses micro-house patterns as starting point to build something more intricate
where robotic movements remain constantly intertwined with amoebic perc-samples, vocal
snippets, groove swings and jazzy synths. Clocking at 14 minutes, the dreamy and deeply
absorbing Antigone' (C) is the EP's longest work, and a true hypnotic anthem that works
like a musical vortex. Radiq's artistic indulgence culminates with Sad Strings' (D), the
EP's jazziest exploration around heavy drum programming and dramatic mood shifts.
The double EP was visually interpreted by Max Binski in a heavily textured acrylic painting,
giving this release the visual perk Pluie/Noir collectors grew accustomed to. Limited Pressings.

When was the last time you were Hearing Colours?

Long term music companions, and more importantly close friends, Felipe Valenzuela and Argenis Brito unite once more for their collaboration project - FAER, showcasing their timeless chemistry. This time the Berlin based duo have created an innovative four track EP, “The Fraud Era” and it is ready to see the light of day on the blossoming Hearing Colours label which is co-founded by Felipe himself, and Miami based Max Kraushaar.

Opener “Space Cuts” is a serious and gritty number, with real tenacity, hypnotic synths melt into the snappy and crisp broken drums. Squelchy acid bass leads you down a path of curiosity in “Trick Or Trick”, before being met with an intricate groove that enables you to release the tension. Two dancefloor dynamic tracks, both in their own right.

The B side showcases the more eclectic and complex side to the pair's productions. Mysterious tones and atmospheres continuously evolve in “Inmersion”, creating an otherworldly yet infectious mood. Mechanical whirrs and bleeps maneuver their way around a glitchy body in the final track, “Fraud Era”. Trippy and eccentric energy for the after party hours, intelligently arranged by two masters of their craft.

Since their well received “Internal Jokes And Other Matters'' EP on Raum Musik... tastemakers have been patiently waiting for the next FAER encounter, and this will undoubtedly wroth the wait.

Feines Tier is kicking off in 2021 with a top notch EP by St. Petersburg based brothers Radial Gaze. Andrey is an electronic musician, producer and mixing engineer, resident of the club "Skotny Dvor". Stas is a sound designer, theatre director and author of music for theatrical performances. So non-trivial synthesis, new media and club vibes meet classic arts and Russian percussion! The Apollonius EP contains three original tracks plus remixes by the likes of Roe Deers and SHMLSS making this record just a perfect club music ride. Vinyl diggers are appreciating the beautiful artwork of the limited and hand numbered edition on black plastic
