Canary recordings second ep, featuring tracks from Jamie trench(tsuba, viva music) ,manooz(morrisaudio), lockwood(midnight love club), and label owner yusuke yamaomto from japan.

This is a solid collection of deep & raw house music beats to keep you moving until the early morning.

Did you know Voguing, which gained mainstream exposure through Malcolm McLaren or Madonna, owes a little of its fortune to France : since the late eighties, this underground movement born in the Harlem ballroom scene fascinated the very first missionaries of house music à la française, whether they'd be DJs, journalists or promoters. Around the world, most of the wonderful Queens of Vogue had a break through with their performances in music videos on MTV, but nowhere else other than in Paris did we take this New-York gay and multicultural counter-culture so seriously. It didn't caught the attention of young producers nor rub off on the pavement of any other city. Therefore, it is without surprise that with their upcoming album « House of Melancholy », Acid Washed, a duo that arose from the second wave of French house, are bringing back a concentrate of everything that house music encloses (we will never say it enough) of polictical, social, utopian, and subversive matters.

Because it's in the legendary club culture, with its heroes and its secret stories, that Andrew Claristidge and Richard d'Alpert found the clay, the ideas and the outline of pretty much everything that they wanted to inject into Acid Washed. Two house music and techno lovers swaying between nocturnal experiences and encyclopedias, both musicians picked up the house nation as an haven, a home to live in, a place to learn and exchange. One grew up next to the cradle of French techno (Grenoble), the other was trained on classical music, new-wave and punk : Andrew and Richard did indeed cross paths around a substrate named Daft Punk, but above all and later on, around the sprawling club culture which came to life at the same moment in Chicago, Detroit and Manchester, and gave birth to the duo. Considered as a return to the origins of house and techno music after the euphoric unpacking of a big bangish first album, « House of Melancholy » however proposes a synthetic cocktail, highly indiosyncratic : a return to the origins of their own house and their own techno. In this way, the ones who would only see Acid Washed as a pair of skillful technicians of vintage synths and references are in for a surprise. We won't dance nor dream to the songs of « House of Melancholy » like to any other album, always higher and louder, and a little bit stronger too.

Tablon is a new France based independent record label. Supporting artists with a characteristic style, tablon releases music by passion, developing its own vision of today's and tomorrow's dance music.
After a first EP by Arnaud linked in a certain way to Greece, tablon 002 will come from Istanbul. Far from us the idea to make a worldwide music label or refer to any old war between two countries. It just happened like that. Sarp makes amazing music and we are proud to present his new EP. It is called "I care because you don't", the artwork is made by Nefelie and the mastering by Mathieu Berthet in Paris. As we care a lot about the vinyl thing, our releases appear first on 12" and then in digital.
"Hi, I am Sarp Yilmaz. No, not your household name, not the next megaDj, not the chart topper, just a guy with some machines and a passion in his heart, who is supported by some other guy who runs this young, fresh label, who is mad enough to release music that is not bassline obsessed, not fitting any of the genre slots of your favorite online store, that is as much hip hop and jazz as it's house. No, this will not destroy your dancefloor, nor will it make you dance like there's tomorrow, it's moody, sometimes even depressive, but I made it with a smile on my face. It's trippy, it's glitchy and it's slow. Music, I make to cure the sicknesses of my heart. Hope it puts a smile on your face too. I care because you don't".

Detroit house mentor and pioneer Blake Baxter (Underground Resistance, Tresor) and Systematic head Marc Romboy are teaming up fort he already eighth time in order to present us their defintion of real techno music.

- Follow the sound' ist he message this time which means wes hall go with the flow when the beat hits our mind.

Version 1 comes along in a typical rough way, whereas the second version represents the very deep and old school house shades of their works.

REPRESS ALERT!

My Love Is Underground return with only their second release of 2013, with MLIU15 introducing the sounds of Dungeon Meat. The new collaborative endeavor between MLIU regular Brawther and Tristan Da Cunha of Back To Basics fame, Dungeon Meat live up to the brash nature of "The F*ck Off Track" with heavy hitting percussion driven house at it's finest. Look out for a label of the same name from Dungeon Meat later this year. Face down Ukrainian producer SE62 returns for MLIU duty for a third time with the hook heavy deep house burn of "True Force".

Special Remarks: brown marbled vinyl

Written, produced, arranged and engineered by Joseph Longo III Pal Joey Music aka Earth People

New York finest Joseph Longo III (aka Pal Joey / Earth People) presents an excursions into deep &
soulful house, downbeats and electronica.

(Locked Groove, Nuno De Satos remixes) Something Happening Somewhere and Mary Go Wild combine their forces for a very special record, containing two cuts by Presk and remixes by Locked Groove and label honcho Nuno dos Santos.

Something Happening Somewhere and Mary Go Wild combine their forces for a very special record, containing two cuts by Presk and remixes by Locked Groove and label honcho Nuno dos Santos. The original A1 side has already been released on SoHaSo last summer on their SOMEWHERE compilation, but has now found a place on delicious black gold and is further enriched with a fresh B-side and aforementioned remixers delivering quality reworks.

2BXPRZD is an ode to the celebration of night life and the diverse spectrum of people that move within it. The club has always been a place where people from every background, religion and gender imaginable can meet and express their being through Dancing. It doesn't matter in what way you move, only that it's authentic and respecting towards the fellow dancers around you. Presk provides all the necessary ingredients: the funkiness in the drums melting with the dark and sinister bassline and pitched vocal perfectly assemble the conditions for such an interaction to take place.

Locked Groove takes this celebratory dance and turns it into an even darker and hypnotizing affair. Stripping the original to its bare essence with a pounding kickdrum to lead the way. Pulsing atmospheres and emotive pads swirl around and behind, granulated in a way that they almost fall apart. This is further reinforced by the stream of voices that are processed to sound like a field recording from beyond the iron curtain in Soviet times, anticipating the unavoidable collapse that follows.

The B sides provides a little more uplifting environment with Starets, unsettling melodies and dissonant atmospheres propel forward before restraining the whole thing and letting broken chord stabs seep through the system. Again reworking the original material into a more skeletal structure, Nuno dos Santos adds a poignant arp melody that is typical for his melancholic style. Driving yet breathing with emotion, it's the perfect accompaniment for a night drive while floating through clear skies. This records proves a delightful combination, containing something imperative for every soul feeling the need to express themselves in a unique way.

First vinyl from London's Coastal Haze for Tokyo friend Aquarium aka Deepspace

Systematic Recordings Lost Treasures series has been a revelation since label boss Marc Romboy took the inspired decision to looks at licensing some of the most precious and memorable moments from his musical youth. Not only has he released the remastered versions on Ltd 10" vinyl, he has also backed the singles with exciting remixes, where the choice of producer and the mixes themselves show a deep respect for the original record. 001 saw UK producer Jimpster join Romboy in reworking Terrence Parker's Love's Got Me High and in December of last year F.E.X. and Melon shone on 002 as they turned their talents to Mike Dunn, Victor Simonelli & Luis Radio's 1997 smash, Nothing Stays The Same. Today Marc paints the original with his acid-tipped brush as his Devilfish remix takes us on an bubbling oldskool journey. We are also treated to a remastered version of Victor Simonelli's Lost-In-The-Groove-Mix from 1997 and the brand new Super Dub from F.E.X.

Nur mit einer Handvoll Releases bewaffnet eroberte das 2010 gegründete LIFE AND DEATH Kollektiv die Clublandschaft, darunter so großartige Platten wie WhoMadeWho's 'Every Minute Alone' oder Pillow Talk's 'The Come Back EP'. Jetzt stellt KOMPAKT mit DJ TENNIS' THE OUTCAST eine neues Meisterwerk aus der italo-amerikanischen Soundschmiede
vor, ein melancholischer Floorschmeichler mit opulenten Vocals und psychedelischen Einflüssen. Es war nur eine Frage der Zeit, bis wir auf den Zug aufspringen: Life And Death ist schließlich wie Kompakt als ein Label mit Vorliebe zum Melodiösen und Besonderen bekannt, als Verfechter der Emotionen auf dem Tanzflur. DJ TENNIS' neues Meisterwerk passt da hervorragend ins Bild: Als eines der aufregendsten neuen Talente in der aktuellen Tanzmusik hat Manfredi Romano
aka DJ Tennis das Life And Death-Label mitbegründet und mit Daze auch noch eine der wichtigsten Event- und Bookingagenturen Italiens geschaffen. Nun tritt er mit dem Ausnahmetrack THE OUTCAST ins Rampenlicht, entstanden in
Kooperation mit den einzigartigen PILLOW TALK. Ein feinmaschiges Netz aus Spätsechziger Einflüssen, perfekt austariertem Pop-Geflüster und rohen, für die Primetime hochgerüsteten Beats wird hier serviert und unterstreicht einmal
mehr die nahezu unheimliche Fähigkeit von Tennis, eine lose Sammlung von Einflüssen und Ideen in einen großartigen Clubtrack zu verwandeln der mehr darstellt als nur die Summe seiner Teile.

liit is back, in your face .

IvanLatyshev is a record producer and DJ with more than 10-years experience, having grown up in Russia's cultural epicentre of St Petersburg. Developing a love for deep house, the young producer has been releasing his perfectly-realised club tunes on labels such as Toolroom, and now provides us with a second outing on Dessous Recordings. The Art of Flying EP presents two original tracks and a pair of remixes of the lead cut. The original 'Art of Flying' is quite a statement - a jazzy, swingy beat introduces the track, before solidifying around punchy 4 / 4 groove. Restless synths drift in and out resulting in a track that is both exceptionally funky and deeply wonky - topped off with a killer spoken word vocal. The ever-dependable Eddie Fowlkes steps up on remix duties and supplies a more jacking interpretation, adding a filthy bassline on his Fly Mix. The same track also gets a 'Crazy Dub' rework which expands the space within the track and strips it down for maximum club effect.

"I want them to hate me for putting this out" says Jackmaster Hater, referring to tracks once possessed by a mere handful of Chicago House DJs. These recordings, traded secretly on tape, were exclusive to the likes of Ron Hardy and Frankie Knuckles.

Here is the new compilation by Jerome Derradji with Kevin Starke, aka the infamous Jackmaster Hater and owner of Kstarke Records in Chicago. It is one of the sickest slice of Chicago House Music ever released.

This compilation features ultra rare and lost Chicago classics paired with a nice selection of newer tracks produced by Jackmaster Hater and his friends, all nicely laid out on a DCD and 2 DLPs. The DLPs come with a killer poster and the DCD features a booklet about Kstarke records and Kevin Starke and a few more surprises.

It includes rare tracks by Ron Hardy, James "Jack Rabbit" Martin, Terrence Woodard, Traxmen and many more.

This is the real sound of Chicago.

After seven years and 11 releases on labels like Slices of Life and Daniel Bell's Elevate outpost, Berlin producer Baaz is ready to reveal his first full-length effort. His 10-track LP, Red Souvenirs, is set to drop on 24th of November via the beatmaker's own Office Recordings, which makes it the fourth release from the imprint after a record from Christopher Rau and two EPs from Baaz himself.
There's no overarching concept behind the album, nor any grandiose statements or artistic messages. Rather, Red Souvenirs captures flashes of Baaz's moods and translates them into vibes that are communicated via hypnotic grooves, crisp beats, and astral synths. The tracks, which he made between 2010 and 2014, span the genres that have attracted Baaz the most over the years, from snappy house beats to narcotic dub techno and psychedelic hip-hop. Album opener 'Everyone' is a mostly ambient tune peppered with glittering synth pricks, gentle rhythmic tick-tocks, and extended synth pads, while tracks like 'Endori' and 'Closed' are snappy deep house workouts with quiet, screwed-down vocal samples. 'Spacehub' and 'Pressyn,' on the other hand, explore languid hip-hop instrumentals embellished with zaps and long, gliding chords that hold for minutes on end. But no matter what form his productions take, Baaz's emphasis on enveloping rhythms, bubbling melodies, and relaxed atmospherics remains.

ItaloJohnson's first release in 2012 breaks the standards of the classic 12- inch model with two tracks representing a double A-side on a 10-inch vinyl. This is the first release that's branded with the ItalioJohnson logo so grab it while it's hot because stickered copies are limited to 500 vinyl.
The stamped side blows you away with a solid bassline powerful enough to light your ass on fire. Unique FX-sounds, an explicit arrangement and sharp drumming pull the track together.
The flip side provides you with proper house music as the vigorous, repetitive vocal-stabs, a Hells Bells Bass and the fearless 707 drums flow into ItaloJohnson's trademark sound.

Amazing stories propose a various artists for his debut release!
Riccardo, Saverio Celestri, Markus Sommer and Filippo Bena are the protagonists of this new one, don't miss it!

Sixth record from danish NORD Records is out now. NORD005 is an EP made by Bookworms containing four hypnotic tracks.

On Colonial Patterns, Brian Leeds (Huerco S) treats his Kansas City region as a universe worthy of its own electronic music.To that end, Leeds deconstructs Midwestern techno and house tropes. The pieces are corrugated, rough, and decompositional. Working cheaply, Leeds conscientiously uses low-end software, synths and cassettes so as to subvert the gloss of so much urban dance music, giving tracks an impressionistic, emotive feel.
Colonial Patterns shares Jon Hassell's hybridized experiments in percussive ambience, as well as William Basinski's strobing melancholia. When tracks subtly veer into house/techno territories, they mirror the no frills dance mechanics of Midwest figureheads Ron Hardy, Omar S and Theo Parrish.
Most exemplary of this sonic architecture are "Struck With Deer Lungs" and "Angel (Phase)." Both layer subtle rhythmic pulses with broader strokes of deep sustain, creating a pair of intro/outro signals that shape the album's whole sequence and function as main supports to the album's busier core. Bass heavy, Detroit techno leaning "'linzhiid" and "Quiviria" deliver foreboding standouts with snappy economy.
Stripped of pop devices, discarding utopian delusions, Colonial Patterns is electronic music for the open prairie. Inherently inhabitable, yet strangely dispeopled, it's a fitting universe for this otherworldly debut.

Next up Creme Organization is a return by regular artist Lake Haze. Following his Natural Insight EP earlier in the year comes Intergalactic Communicationz, four more fresh tracks of acid, techno and electro that is brilliantly evocative. The Portuguese artist known as Goncalo Salgado also please son labels like Unknown to the Unknown and is a real hardware master. At The Gates ov Futron is a turbulent lack track with zipping acid and a cacophony of percussion that is visceral as well as cinematic. Drexciyan Aquarium is, as the name suggest, an aqueous electro track that slithers and slides through an expansive underwater world. Poseidon's Dream then offers a more rugged electro groove that is backed by heavenly pads and a real sense of loss in the synths. Last of all, Intergalactic Communication closes out this far travelling and intergalactic EP with a sci-fi deep house track that is filled with light, 909s and a sense that the end of the world is coming.

Mystic Deepness only for the aficionados.

Breakthrough artist Mihail P's debut presents two stunning original tracks alongside mixes by young Hungarian wizard Gnork and the label's own Hutton Drive aka Domenic Cappello, also of Glasgow's fabled Sub Club.

A year after their impressive last album Burn It Down, Detroit techno legends Octave One are back with a nine track double EP that again shows they are masters of big hypnotic grooves.

Entitled Love by Machine, the album's name is a nod to the fact that the Burden brothers are such revered masters of their hardware. Both in the studio, where they cook up atmospheric house and techno with soaring synths and vocals and also in the live arena, where they are celebrated as one of the most accomplished and forward thinking performers in the game today. That is all the more impressive when you bear in mind they have been active since the '80s, most often releasing on their own 430 West label, which is where they appear again here.

Say Lenny: We've been exploring the theme of connection with this project. How technology gives us the illusion that we are closer to each other more than ever. At some point humanity crossed a line where the devices that we created to bring us together are the same devices that are blocking us from organic experiences.'

Technology is only a tool, which we also had in mind during the recording process.' Adds Lawrence. We decided to go back to how we used to make our records, when we didn't have so many 'sophisticated' audio devices. Back to when we interacted in the studio together as musicians.'

Things open up with the loose metallic percussive line that is In Mono, which sets the machine made tone and is filled with promise. Locator then immediately gets to action with a gallivanting techno kick and various synth lines wrapping round each other as you get sucked into the groove. Just Don't Speak (Midnight Sun Redub) is a more deep and house leaning track with big feel good piano keys and slithering synths that will get hands in the air. Proving they have real range, 7 B4 Dawn is a moody and reserved cut with subtle acid pricks, hip swinging claps and a spaced out dead of night feel.


The second half of the album offers peak time business in the form of the spectacular Bad Love II, the whirring and cosmic Sounds of Jericho and the big loops and fluid grooves of (Where) Time Collides. Pain Pressure is a wonky number with big bassline and a focus on percussive patterns as well as some vocals with real attitude and last cut 8 B4 Dawn ends things in a downbeat and sombre way with sad chords and emotive strings. It is pure Detroit, much like the whole album, and rounds out another fine release from these most revered veterans.

Roman Flügel "I think the first 5 tracks of the album are simply fantastic"

New Andres 12'' debut on his own label La Vida. Andres is one that really needs no introduction, but for those unfamiliar here it is: Andres, aka DJ Dez, is one of Detroit's unsung heros of underground music. Since the late 90's Andres has built up an extremely respectable catalog of that blurs the boundaries between genres, most notably his records on KDJ and Mahogani Music. Not to forget, DJ Dez is also Slum Village's DJ, has recorded many hip hop instrumental on Hipnotech Records, and his hand is on countless other Detroit records. Definitely one of the most consistent producers we've got here whose music can be summed up in one word: Quality!
