More multi artist comp action from Dublin's Jheri Tracks. Limited runs again, so pre-orders are advised..

Following celebrated compilations from Motor City Drum Ensemble and Young Marco - and with the second edition of its limited-capacity festival in Croatia right around the corner - Dekmantel's Selectors series now continues with an edition curated by Marcel Dettmann
.
Although he's now known as one of the world's most celebrated techno artists, even Marcel Dettmann had to start somewhere. Long before he ever held court at Berghain (or its predecessor, Ostgut), he was just another young boy in Eastern Germany, one whose earliest encounters with capitalism involved spending every penny he could scrape together down at the local record shop. In those days, it wasn't techno that got him excited, but new wave, post-punk, industrial and EBM acts like Front 242 and Depeche Mode

It's music from my childhood,' says Dettmann. It's still relevant and still inspires me.' That inspiration can be heard across this edition of the Selectors series, as Dettmann has put together what he describes as a pre-techno compilation.' Much like the previous Selectors editions, the compilation is not a mix CD, but a collection of tracks hand picked by Dettmann from his own vinyl archives. Freshly remastered - and occasionally reworked or re-edited by Dettmann himself - the songs here are undoubtedly vintage gems, but they also represent a very personal journey into Dettmann's past.

It was a great opportunity to dig deeper into my own musical outlook,' he explains. The tracks come from a time before Marcel Dettmann became a DJ.' Simply put, the songs here are some of the building blocks upon which he's built an incredibly storied career, and now he'd like to entrust them to future generations.

Manchester native Alex Coulton has nurtured a reputation for creating sub-heavy rollers thanks to 12's for the likes of Black Acre, Livity Sound and Bloc. With Gamma Ray Burst, the next in his series of releases on London low-end specialists Tempa, Coulton consolidates his sound to deliver some of the most sparse, rhythmic work of his career.

With the record's title track, Coulton weaves from hard-hitting kicks, through to dizzying tribal polyrhythms the whole time maintaining a minimal, space driven atmosphere that remains omnipresent throughout the track's most intense moments. 'Ground Zero' revels in its spaciousness, allowing reverb to flood into the negative space between flashes of heavyweight techno percussion and saturated ripples of synth while the pulsating kicks that underpin 'Alpha Decay' are punctuated with bleak, discordant bells, rhythmic bass hits and hypnotic filtered percussion.

Showing his diverse abilities, 'Phase Two' is an exercise in measured restraint, as a cacophony of clicks and hisses come together to disorientate before forming a driving rhythm section before Coulton maximises his expansive elements on the fog-tinged 'Ascent'.

Closing with the steady flowing, brighter-hued melodic work of 'Distant Resonance', Alex Coulton has created a masterful collection of experimental tech-focused electronica that bewilders, intrigues and will draw the listener in with each play.

Armando was nothing short of a Chicago House & Techno pioneer and many producers since have been inspired by his raw punchy style.

His seminal classic EP 'New World Order has now been remastered from the vaults of Trax Records for your jackin' pleasure...
DO NOT MISS THIS!

Swiss-based Questo! Music gets a little sister called Questa! (sub-label with limited 150 vinyl records). For this, label-head Francesco Ballato merges with Chris Milla, who both are well-known for their specific sounds from the brother label. So the kick-off release called 'Galmus Longus' is a sophisticated and smoothly driven Original.

The B-side belongs to Zürich-based Andri, who already convinced with his producing skills on labels like Heinz Music, URSL, Highgrade, Cityfox and many more. His interpretation leads with a melodic and flashy hook straight ahead to the open air floors. Be quick and safe one of these limited gems.

limited re-stock of this overdrive release by dietmar pier !!!

We are pleased to announce DJ Hell´s 5th album - Zukunftsmusik , to be released on May 12th, 2017 worldwide at International Deejay Gigolo Records. The techno revolution 30 years ago, where boundaries, walls and our own guarded natures came crumbling down The archaic establishment-challenging attitude and forthright energy of the punks The long-awaited eruption of gay culture that had burned and yearned since the dawn of mankind Dare you travel even further back Rewind two hundred years to the romantic revolution where men like the blitzed Berloiz helped us transcend our physical limitations for suspended moments of fantastique disbelief... All of these moments have shaped us, our music and our culture. Each movement comprising artists who - like us right now - are trying to make sense of the uncertain world, the chaotic present and the fearful future. Artists like Hell. Welcome to the future...Reflecting over his participation and contribution to myriad cultural movements since the late 70s, his passion of ever-evolving musical form and our current socialpoliticallandscape, Hell taps into our collective rich histories, our combined fears and our mutual desires to create his most personal, ambitious and thought provoking body of work to date: Zukunftsmusik. His fifth studio album Zukunftsmusik fuses some of Hell's strong signature motifs (his passion for subversion, his great kosmiche canvases, sudden throbbing bursts of dancefloor dynamism, subtle songcraft) yet it sounds unlike anything Hell has ever created before. There are very few big club singles. A delicate balance of classical dramatic orchestral tension and evocative futuristic synthesis runs throughout. Dark and light, hope and fear, fast and slow, day and night... Over the course of one hour Helmut Josef Geier invites you on a musical trip of a lifetime, his lifetime, your lifetime, music's lifetime.

Constant Variables returns with the debut four tracker by new Berlin-based project Ecotone. On "Close To Phobia" he embarks on four journeys of pummeling and trippy techno full of swirling synth lines, out-there sequences and rough (break)beats, all perfectly balanced with a cinematic sense of post-industrial drama. Soon to light up a Warehouse party near you ...

Möd3rn is a global project from 3 wellknown artists who wanted to give a side project from their own solo career. It's a band, producing, playing live but it's also a label created only for the trio productions. Each releases will propose 3 tracks from the 3 artists. For that first one the famous trio propose 3 huges bombs Mö4, Mö5 and Mö6, 3 huge techno killer using rough skins with raw edit. Speech less and listen to that we can call Pure TEchno.
While carefully handling their respective careers, postponing then their obvious collaboration, Möd3rn trio's members have capitalized its desire and now deliver its mere substance, in the rightest moment, where, simply, all the distant forces converge.
The six daring, expert hands merge now into a unique entity, unanimously moving within the same effort towards techno music. Of the distinct identities merely remains the ethereal, synthetic essence devoted to the group, and the common musical passion that leads it. The formula is elaborated freely: each one's adjunctions -subtle keys, nervous chords, underground blows, rhythmical uproars- pour into a thick maelstrom, opaque, condensing Detroit's grieving sensibilities as well as last decade's bewildering cacophonies. The potion obtained is irresistible, an ecstatic hybrid, prodigiously actual, that renders all the genre's diversity and dynamism.
Chance intertwined their paths and now the three companions celebrate both the friendship that resulted and the good fortune that has driven it, by improvising live together as one faceless, solid body agitated by the urge of dance and music, composing the material that shall be processed later on to form their eponym label's releases.

It has in mind a snow storm painting, by Turner. A brawny, bubbling, clangorous, locomotive house thumper is winched — arpeggiated — into the swirling light. On the flip, a different, sustained-release sublimity... skipping, all-body, shimmering, basking in the sun. Ace ten.

Finnish techno icon Mono Junk aka Kim Rapatti joins forces with Berlin based Freestyle Man aka Klas Sasse Lindblad, known for his productions on classic labels like Sähkö and Moodmusic.
PATA EP starts with the hard hitting techno title 'Not A Love Story', haunting vocals, simple synthline, slicing percussion and deep bassdrum, all u need to make an effect, this must be heard in a big sound system. Following with 'Need Your Lovin' the EP takes a more electro approach, mesmerising love story with Jupiter-8 bassline and 808 beats accompanied with vocals on this track too by Mr Rapatti.
The EP ends with 'Stella Polaris', a production which started as a jam in 2007 in Berlin at Sasse's Blackhead Studios and was finished 10 years later in 2017 in the same location. Reminiscing of early 90s electronica time when everything was pure and gold and when these fellows also were starting their careers. 'Stella Polaris' leaves no one cold with emotional themes of analog synthesis and depth of the bass.
PATA EP is out 15.5.2017 on DUM Records (DUM039) on 12' vinyl. DUM Records selected catalogue is also available in digital form in your favourite download shop.

Ygrok brings a long-awaited fourth release to its catalog. René Audiard's Sakhalin' takes things a step away from traditional club music.
The A side, Vox Out' opens with the skeleton of a rhythm. Scattered tom drums and barely detectable whirs, fading and reeling in the background. When the distorted voices begin their story behind a hissing, grinding off-shaker, you know this will not be your traditional club track. A story develops. The barest hint of a shuffling beat, a subtle reminder of Soren's previous work, pins down the journey into the darkest psychic territory. The title track Sakhalin steps even further into darkness. Crackling electrics and disjointed atmospheres change at a glacial pace over a submerged hydraulic beat. Sakhalin Audiard experimental territory.

Originally released on the netlabel Black Queen. The Croatian artist Robert Pain shows with this four-track EP a dark and beautiful journey full of percussions and pads, creating mystical atmospheres and allowing us to enter into a field of ritual sounds.

Stumbling Zoned Out Yoga Celebration

This is the fifth release on the 6-volume Surgeon reissues label SRX, collecting together an important selection of one-off tracks and highly limited rarities.

* Fivo appeared on a release on Round Records and Pagga featured on the Underground UK compilation release by Kickin Records.
The B-side features 2 tracks from the mythical THX1139 which was previously only available on 50 white labels in 1996.

A few words from Surgeon about the SRX series:
While searching through old DAT tapes I was shocked to find how clear and dynamic many of my early tracks sounded, not the way I remembered them from the vinyl releases. Those early tracks, recorded 20 years ago, were mastered and cut by people who had no understanding of electronic music. I actually remember cutting a dubplate back then and being asked if my track was "supposed to sound like that" The engineer was so disgusted at my music that once the cut started he left the room until it was finished.

Although some of these releases have been repressed many times over the years, they have always been from the original plates from those early cuts; none have ever been re-mastered and recut in their original from. So I began carefully transferring everything from the original DAT tapes and working closely with Christoph Grote-Beverborg from Dubplates & Mastering in Berlin (who's been cutting my all my releases since 1996) to present this early material as it was originally intended.

Along with the early Downwards releases, I found high-quality unreleased tracks from that time as well as releases that had only been issued in limited pressings; those too are included in this project. For the packaging I commissioned Ken Meier and Yoonjai Choi from the New York design firm Common Name to create some sumptuous sleeve art.

Further unreleased jams from the great TLT. BIG TIP!
You can trail away with it. It is easy to enter, but hard to drop out. Tolouse Low Trax just needs an MPC, a small Synthesizer set up and some effects to create subliminal hypnotic music trips, driven by dark synthlines and drunken shuffled patterns. The primitiveness in my music is linked to something simple, and that don't have to be obligatory minimal. For me it is enough to dance rough around the core. Music you don't shape till the end contains of a moment of beauty. A veil of secrecy. I work very simply. I rather reduce my possibilities in ompass. Limitations offer lots of liberties.' He reveals about his work ethic. Even if his music sounds darker then any ever experienced night, he mostly produces it in the morning in his highly inspirational studio home. During the dark times of the day Tolouse Low Trax mostly performs live around the globe. Or hangs out in his second home: the Salon Des Amateurs club bar in Dusseldorf, which he once founded and where he held until today two weekly DJ residencies. The moments and atmospheres he inhales during these lightless moments are mirrored in his shadowy music, about which he also confesses: My art is more a cinematic, literally idea of a large to explore Megacity. This is one of the pictures I would link to my music.' On ' part one he now offers five sounding visions about that Megacity'. They listen to mysterious names like Hidden Flat' or Studies in Drama'. They are nervous. They have ephemeral pieces of dub, Industrial, wave or Italian library music. And at times strangealienated voice samples dance within his highly addictive arrangements. Words can't express their magic. But one thing is fore sure: his hypnotic dance-not-dance tracks do not only illuminate so-called freaks!

Planet Rhythm usual Yan Cook teams up with fellow Ukranian artist ''Mays'' for a tough collaboration record named ''Old Friend EP''. On the opening-track 'Fixed' the tone is being set for this being an utter dancefloor effort with the extended use of FX and modulation. 'Old Friend' resumes in this fashion bringing a glitchy atmosphere of some kind together with matches chords and outlandish drum work. The B-side opens up with the futuristic tones of 'Coder' which is based around tough synth arpeggiators and ferocious kick drums. 'Tesla' continues down the road of futuristic Techno with it's strong and extended FX works and intrusive synthesizer sounds.

REPRESS 2016 ! The Go tek side is a Ragga Tek tube, the B side by Asystematik is probably 2 of their best tunes ever. Enjoy !

Exploring modal music and various other writing techniques, and taking influence from music of various traditions.
Hand printed lino-cut case for the tape

The 10th Modal Analysis release is the second full EP of the label's co-founder, ANFS. Mass EP demonstrates ANFS unique sound aesthetics, offering tracks to satisfy the most demanding music-heads. Mass#1 is a sadistic composition of distorted percussions and basslines hitting hard in a slow rhythmic groove , while Mass#2 stands closer to the dancefloor thinking norms, without though leaving behind any of the creepiness of Mass#1. On the flip side, Mass#3 brings back the mood of a horror movie soundtrack, with bleepy riffs on the leading sequence. Finally, Mass#4 is another rhythmic industrial composition, which connects Mass EP with the traditional eastern influences that can be found on ANFS debut release, Ground EP.

Banging tunes in an acid Un-mental style:)

200 BPM tribecore crazy stuff... Where Ben 9mm is at the french tribecore what Deathchant is at the UK Hardcore : Hip Hop and electro night(mare) wedding ! Dark and sober, efficient and no anguish./ FAT !

The extraordinary prolongation of sound jerked Polly's pretty head away from her work at the calibration machine. Today's jobs had seen her at her thorough and meticulous best but as afternoon melted easily into evening, these latest reverberations meant she'd no longer be able to focus to the level required. Her boss had just dropped The Bomb. As her ear drums filtered the noise, the technician's bright mind was flooded with delight, her eyes no longer felt dry and tight with concentration; she was caught riding the crest of a massive wave of admiration.
Sitting her specs on the desk and pushing herself off the comfortable heat of her work stool, Miss Filla let the soundwaves pull her to her feet and carry her off to the main source of the captivating music.In honour of Dixon Avenue Basement Jams spending four years at the forefront of the global electronic music scene a new release was planned to shake the foundation to the very core. Techno wizard Big Miz had been charged with delivering the goods and by the Gods, the Glaswegian had cracked it! He'd created, not just new tunes, but a whole new fucking genre. Polly could feel the vibrations pulsating through every part of her curvaceous body as she sashayed along to the seductive beat.

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

Fat bass electro-techno, a bit progressive but a real killer for the Dancefloor.

Vanta Series is the new series for Killekill's dancefloor music. The releases come in series, every series comes with a theme and one artwork which is being split in several parts to go with each release. The first series is called THE END IS NEAR' and features four records. It comes with an artwork by French visual artist Elzo Durt.
Vanta 003 comes from Eomac under his alias EeOo.
EeOo is a side project for what is, in Eomac's mind, straight up, techno-rave-house-jungle- disco influenced, dancefloor material. It draws influence from classic styles of dance music. Less dense, less conceptual than the Eomac-music. Less focussed on texture and atmosphere, a more direct approach for sweaty ravers and moving bodies.

Gonzalo MD delivers two thrilling primetime originals, flanked by two banging tool remixes from The Plant Worker and labelhead Valent

The consistently on-point Fullbarr imprint returns with another outstanding release this September in the form of 'Machines' by Hans Berg, backed with remixes from Ed Davenport and Immer.

Fullbarr have already seen releases and remixes from the likes of Area, LoSoul, Luke Solomon, Huxley and Youandewan.

Now Swedish born, Berlin-based Hans Berg, delivers classy techno that fits perfectly amongst the back-catalogue. Berg has been developing his sharp and distinctive works for over a decade now and is currently collaborating with Swedish video artist Nathalie Djurberg, designing soundscapes for her highly praised art installation, showing Berg's ability to push further afield from straight electronic productions.

The remixes come from the Chicago's Ghetto House legend and Dance Mania hero DJ Slugo and Nina has been championing these Juke mixes around the world.

That time when the sun crosses the plane of the earth's equator, making night and day of approximately equal length all over the earth. 'Equinox' is P.E.A.R.L. his debut on Float Records. As known for his aesthetic grooves we are proud to add this Berlin based Spanish producer to our catalogue. This three track EP does exactly what the title implies.

Equinox I hits it right in the centre, with vibes perfect for either sunset or sunrise. The hypnotic sequence will cut through your brain and makes sure you don't even know if it's night or day. Equinox II represents the night. Again an incredible solid sequence, but with a raw edge assisted by a haunting soundscape doing justice to the dark. No one is safe for this killer. When day time arrives you will be introduced to Equinox III. This seems to be the most friendly track, but don't let it fool you. A smart percussive rhythm does the magic and creates the hypnotic experience you can expect from P.E.A.R.L.

Tom Hang is the solo electronic work of Lobster Theremin label owner Jimmy Asquith. Despite being ridiculously busy either quaking dancefloors across the globe and flowing into the world a continuous catalogue of acclaimed electronic heat, Jimmy has found time to follow up his 'Tidy Bedroom Versions' release with more original tracks from the heavily dusted harddrive.
The record opens with 'The New World', where there is no space for preparation or adaptation; instead we are plunged straight into a fast evolving, rapid fire other. Despite this disorientating descent it doesn't take ears and minds long to nestle within the groove and across the tracks seven minutes we settle into the escapism of Hang's bodily mantra and slowly lose ourselves to this new world.
'Chronic Delirium' strides into focus with an exploratory intent, evoking images of a lone body battling a windswept lonely planet. There is an overwhelming sense of anticipation within the tracks pulse, and a dizzying excitement within Hang's ever shifting percussive experiments to create this state of musical delirium. This is perhaps the moment of realisation that within this new world there is a crossroads signing towards potential encroaching solitude and despair, or a leap of faith towards seeking comfort within embracing that which is completely unknown.
The record closes with the mammoth 'In the Deep'. Across the twelve shifting minutes Hang continues this idea of the human relationship with new zones and new experience, but here Hang seems to convey the idea that the struggle is over, there is no further bodily or mental resistance to change, dystopia has captured the spirit and embrace is the only option when you're in this deep. Buzz saw synth attacks collide with gloriously subtle yet uplifting old school bubbling melodies before the deepest techno pulse imaginable swings eyes instantly back to the floor.
'The New World' is a sphere where pummelling Techno burners teeter on the edge of freedom before winding and convulsing themselves into varying mutant zones that straddle the lines between experimental statement and tightly locked grooves to create a record of pure dystopian dancefloor heat. There is an odd and refreshing unity here within the strict, bare, functional, consuming percussion and the heady, playful, and freeform nature of Hang's melodic grip.

The eleventh Modal Analysis release introduces Umwelt, with his debut appearance on the label. Density EP is a 4 track release blending Umwelt's unique style which is a perfect fit with the Modal Analysis aesthetic. Industrial meets electro here, and the Lyon based producer joins the sound of Athens. Density #1 fully reflects Umwelts skills on enigmatic riffs and fat bass-lines. Density #2 and Density #3 sneak into the more dance-floor minded record bags, while Density#4 feeds a melodic/melancholic feeling whilst hard hitting beats bring it home.

Perfectly easing listeners through a chilling listening experience fused together by a crisp yet disported drum rhythm, this forthcoming EP and his album are yet a further presentation of dubspeeka's stature in the spectrum of underground music.

DUST is an international, amorphous, conceptual techno project known for futuristic acid compositions and noisy, immersive live performances. Founded in 2012, DUST has since performed and/or DJed across the world. Perhaps the most notable element of the live aspect is Greem Jellyfish, whose heavily processed screaming and flamboyant costumes often erupt crowds into techno riots.

Rave Techno And Doom slow Hardcore

Emerging from what sounds like the unknown depths of outer space, new artist Icore drops a debut EP on Osiris Music uk lled with ve exercises in hypnotic, polyrhythmic tension. The A-side's two tracks 'Sigil' and 'Status Field' feel like two parts of a whole, each establishing a minimal, kick-heavy march in 6/8 that would perfectly ll the cavernous hull of an abandoned mining vessel, lurching through empty parts of the galaxy to the sound of ominous drones and malfunctioning, high-end bleeps. The B-side is more cinematic in its scope, with opener 'Substance From Shadow' summoning a distinctly b-movie vibe in its melody, before both 'Claimed By Night' and 'Axiom' retreat into darker, more ambient territory, the former thick in sub- bass kicks, the latter ramping up the dread with unnerving repetition.

Originally released in 1998 through Kog Transmissions via a very limited CD run, LOOP is proud to present for the first time digitally and on vinyl one of New Zealandâs most acclaimed electronic albums. 'inside a quiet mind' has been lovingly remastered by Chris Chetland, one of the founders of Kog Transmissions, and who handled the original mastering. âSomehow or another, Chris managed to make it releasable 20 years ago, and now he has given new life to the album by a further smoothing of the edges, and polishing it to a level of shininess where it even sounds good in my uteâ. - denver mccarthy 'inside a quiet mind' is a modern classic of the electronic genre, and one which can finally be experienced to a standard befitting itâs quality. A forgotten gem no more, it is an album that holds an important place in NZ electronic music history. Stepping through deep house, glitch and techno, and originally made across bedrooms in Auckland and Brisbane, inside a quiet mind isnât a collection of songs, it is a complete album, and one which was created as such. Across 11 songs and over one hour, it is a journey across an electronic spectrum, and one which is best enjoyed in full. Originally created inside the thriving electronic scene of the late 90âs, 'inside a quiet mind' is an album which wears itâs influences proudly â the electro/synth heavy Detroit sound, and the minimal-techno of Basic Channel and Maurizio from Berlin. As Denver McCarthy himself matured and grew from his late teens to early twenties, so did his sound. âYou will be tinkering away with a sound, a chord, a rhythm, and then something will catch your attention, something that sounds good to you. From there, itâs just a matter of adding more elements until you get what occurs to you as a finished piece. You can feel the anxiety build as the song unfolds, and you wonder whether or not you will be able to resolve the piece and bring out what needs to come out for it to be something worthy and memorable. I have recorded so many songs, but only a small percentage I actually like and stand the test of time.❠- Denver McCarthy

Arcing Seas is back with ARCS-03; a unique EP of selected tracks from the first two releases, remixed by The Mover, Peder Mannerfelt and Shifted. First up, rave and techno legend The Mover presents his first new material since 2009. After using the slogan "See you in 2017" for years before, this marks the start his return. He turns Trappist into a hard hitting electro workout using original parts that explode and punish the senses. Peder Mannerfelt introduces the B-side with his take on Skull Gun. Broken beats and exciting percus-sion sit atop deep kicks, disorientating quick fire samples and rapid snares, showing how versatile and on-point he is. Finally, Shifted is called into action with a signature deep-sonic soundscape. Rumbling kicks and high frequency textures occupy the sound field, alongside reverberating samples from Vultures, making it his own. Label info: Arcing Seas is an anagram of Cassegrain. It started out as a secret alias, releasing a couple EPs on Our Circula Sound. The secret was less well kept after the duo appeared at Berghain under this name. A year later, after deciding to start a label, it finally made sense to bring the two together.

Dave The Drummer and Marcello Perri get together once again with 2 tracks of techno goodness:

In Safe Hands :
This is a hard bass-driven industrial kick-drum groove which meets some carefully placed vocal loops and a piercing high synth shot which gives the track a distinct warehouse party vibe. This track is going to detonate those dance floors!

Acid Future :
This is the first time a squelchy acid line has ever featured on a Hydraulix release. A tough rumbling reverberated drumbeat, firing on all cylinders with a squelchy 303 sat on top. it's even got a voice and some reversed bits of 303 What more could you ask for

An Iceberg is a large mass of ice detached from a glacier or from a floating platform of glaciers that drifst in the sea. It is in constant motion and most of its mass remains submerged under surface of the water. The goal of this new Iceberg series of releases on Glacial Movements is to describe through techno / dub music this huge mass of ice."Himuro" is the debut album of ambient duo Eraldo Bernocchi/Netherworld. Composed and produced in two years of exchanging material and sound inputs coming both from electronic treated guitars and organic sources. The album lies its foundation on ambient, dub, space and distance."Himuro" was an "ice cellar", a "'cold room" during the Edo period in Japan. The Kanazawa castle had one and after, during the Meiji period, these rooms were part of palaces. Often used for storing snow and keeping it during summer they had medical, food or ceremonial importance. During summer snow or ice kept in the himuro were sometimes sent from one castle to the other travelling as far as 500 km, relocating the "coldness".For months Netherworld supplied Bernocchi with a vast array of soundscapes and textures, an endless stream of feelings and emotions that the latter used to create the foundations of the album tracks on which constructed guitar scapes (often not recognisable), bass lines, harmonies and grooves. After month of collecting and creating sound inputs, Bernocchi started to carefully assemble what we now can listen on Himuro. A velvety sound creation constantly balancing between a rhythm approach and pure drifting scapes. Perhaps the best description of this works lays in the words of philosopher Emil Cioran from his 1936 The Book Of Delusions:
"To detach yourself elegantly from the world, to give contour and grace to sadness, a solitude in style, a walk that gives cadence to memories, stepping towards the intangible, with the breath in the trembling margins of things, the past reborn in the overflow of fragrances, the smell, through which we conquer time, the contour of the invisible things, the forms of the immaterial, to deepen yourself in the intangible, to touch the world airborne by smell, aerial dialogue and gliding dissolution, to bathe in your own reflecting fragmentation..."Eraldo Bernocchi is an Italian composer, arranger, producer and guitarist with a solid reputation as an all round sonic sculptor. Starting his career in the late 70's as a guitarist in independent punk bands, in the mid'80's Eraldo co-founded the conceptual audio project Sigillum-S, which grew into a highly acclaimed international cult act.In the 90's, together with his wife Petulia Mattioli, Eraldo established Verba Corrige Productions, which became the base for a raft of notable audio visual projects and co-operations. A relentless sound explorer, Eraldo Bernocchi has collaborated with numerous artists including Mick Harris (SIMM, Black Engine), Bill Laswell (Somma, Charged, Ashes and numerous others), Nils Petter Molvaer, Harold Budd , Russell Mills, Toshinori Kondo (Charged), Raiz, Almamegretta, Spectre, Sensational, DJ Disk, Professor Shebab, Thomas Fehlmann, Zu (as Black Engine), DJ Olive, Markus Stockhausen, Giovanni Lindo Ferretti (as producer and author), Robin Guthrie, Colin Edwin and Balazs Pandi among many others. " Himuro " is Bernocchi's 100th album.In addition to regular work scoring music for adverts and other multimedia projects, Eraldo has composed film music for Academy Award winner Gabriele Salvatores and produced numerous art installations with Petulia Mattioli, as well as other artists including Russell Mills and Harold Budd.Uniquely, Eraldo is also known for being invited to play and organize several special events for H.H. The Dalai Lama in Italy and be the founder of the record labels RareNoise Records with music addict Giacomo Bruzzo and Transmutation Ltd, his new media company. Netherworld is the moniker of Alessandro Tedeschi, the creator and owner of Glacial Movements Records in Italy. Over the last few years, the label has received much appreciation and critical acclaim from both the national and international music press. Coming originally from Rome, Netherworld published several works on various labels such as Fario, Angle Rec, Umbra, The Wire Tapper. He then decided to focus on his visions for his own record label - Glacial Movements with releases like "Morketid" (2007), "Over the Summit" (2011), " Alchemy of Ice" (2013), "Zastrugi" (2015). These were again critically acclaimed gems of ambient music. Netherworld performed at electronic music festivals such as Störung, Up to Date, Flussi and many more. " It's a beautiful and hallowed sound that Tedeschi generates, shifting from the grim black of the Isolationist to a chroma of snowblind blues, pinks and whites" THE WIRE

Grebenstein is a producer, DJ and visual artist living in Kassel, Germany. After playing in several bands as a drummer and guitarist he made his solo-debut with a 4-track EP on the Regis helmed label - Downwards Records in November 2014.

The 'Gloss' 4 track EP for Horo comes after his Downwards Records follow up 'Strong, Proud, Stupid, & Superior' with Seefried was released in October 2016.

Title track 'Gloss' centres on percussive crescendos and pensive guitar layers, while 'Self' and it's 'Version' stretch this effect out into a grinding, slow motion introspection. 'Loss' closes the EP with serrated drum machine blasts punctuating feedback contortions. The tension throughout the EP is palpable, with the shaping of the tension providing the substance of his signature style.

Non club tracks for open minded clubs.

Hyboid ist zurück mit spacigem Electro-Pop der dritten Art: "UFOs over Berlin" erzählt die Geschichte von einer UFO-Invasion in unserer Hauptstadt. Das Mini-Album knüpft mit seinen 6 Stücken an Hyboid-Werke aus der Frühzeit des Astro Chicken Labels an. Analoge Klänge und sphärische Melodien und Pads lassen keinen Zweifel: Space is the place!

Jac Berrocal, David Fenech and Vincent Epplay return to Blackest Ever Black with their first record since 2015's Antigravity LP. Why brings three singular but complementary pieces together on one 7. The title track is a louche but volatile art-rock panther-stalk...a cracked jazz ode on street hassle pitched somewhere between Vince Taylor-in-exile and PiL's Metal Box...Berrocal on vocals, a rakish, slurring stream-of-consciousness that becomes a yowl of despair; drums loose and dub-delayed; Fenech's jagged guitar phrasing set to stun, and Epplay's electronics set to flay. 'Ice Exposure' situates Bef's mournful, muted trumpet in the sort of eerie deep-freeze ambience that characterised Antigravity, and 'Alienor en Aout' coaxes a gloomy poetry from affectless cold war radio broadcasts. Why are we so strange tonight Limited pressing with artwork by Vincent Epplay.

Makam returns to Dekmantel Records with his first full-length album for the Amsterdam based label. Blanken's ongoing search for fresh sounds, textures and rhythms has lead him to Than Sadet, a gorgeous piece of work that takes his sound into new directions.
That Sadet displays a refinement of Makam's sound. The music is highly tactile, with an emphasis on the surroundings of the environment in which it was created. Blanken: ''Than Sadet is a secluded beach on an island in Thailand. A mysterious atmosphere haunts it. It's windy and the weather is always a bit worse compared to the rest of the isle. There are many cliffs and you can't swim because the waves are too high. Four years ago I visited Than Sadet for the first time and I've been coming back ever since. At one point I decided to bring my studio equipment. For a week, I dedicated my days to making music. Those sketches formed the basis of the album.''

The inspiration on Than Sadet is obvious. From billowing percussion thru windswept strings to passages of strange bird calls, and across desolate tracts of calving synthesizers to a climax with a finale of petrifying thunder drums. The levels of dramatic suspense are ski-high, and mostly downbeat and mid-tempo grooves operate beyond the dancefloor.

''Each track is based on a particular Than Sadet aesthetic. For example, 'Mr. Singh' is a masseur on the beach who uses fire while doing his shiatsus. 'Buddha's Bridge' is a wooden bridge that leads to an impressive Buddha monument; Seven Kings' is an ode to a local waterfall. Tracks like 'Mai Pen Rai' and 'When Light Gives You Hope' are representative for Than Sadet. I tried to create an introspective album that does what the island did to me: it puts life into perspective.''

A track certainly very emotional and optimistic driven from its center by a sub frequency and a flashing mesmerizing melody that is accompanied by sporadic effects hi hats and arrangements that make each compas something unique and different from the previous.
On the B side appears Deforming Reality,a track signed by Kristina, focused again in the dancefloor.
The peculiarity of the track lies in an unexpected esamblaje in the middle of it. The first part very dynamic, is marked by a sound with dub character that constantly transmuted through effects .After the central stop the track begins to distort reality which initially gave life giving way to a second part reminds an atmospheric version of 'dark silhouette' and published on the first catalog record ( Traxx 1) making clear the taste of Kristina for dark and symmetric sounds that characterize her.

Although this is the first release Vin Sol has put out through Ultramajic you can't help but appreciate their synchronicity, both the label and Vin Sol have an uncompromising vision for their work.

Its been a busy year for Vin Sol. After inaugurating his own imprint 'Club Lonely' in May, he went on to release two more EP's.
Now the San Francisco native is back again with his debut EP on Ultramajic.

Although this is the first release Vin Sol has put out through Ultramajic you can't help but appreciate their synchronicity, both the label and Vin Sol have an uncompromising vision for their work. Ultramajic's overarching aesthetic and dedication to cutting edge, energetic house and techno and Vin's lively veneration of old school midwestern jack tracks sit perfectly together.

'Instinct' is a straightforward introduction to the EP, bleeps and a pounding kick drum carry the track to a frenzied finale. '1314' ushers in a darker atmosphere, born out of a combination of simple elements Vin manages to twist and build a unique energy. In 'Can't Cope' Vin utilizes a complex drum pattern to drive the track forward, never losing the momentum of the dance floor. Longtime friend Matrixxman steps up for a remix of the title track. Taking things back to basics Matrixxman strips it back for a pitched down minimal intro before reintroducing the bleeps and cymbals.

Rising Amsterdam-based star Esther Duijn leads the charge with a hypnotic, understated slice of dub techno that grooves in all the right places. Label boss Brothers' Vibe then steps up with a sharp-edged, percussion led workout that blooms into a fulsome, acidic jam laced with techno futurism and pure machine soul. German production duo youANDme are regular collaborators with Brothers' Vibe, and here they join forces for the tough, drum-pounding Playing With Toys. Rodriguez also takes the opportunity to unveil the Silent Rodgerz alias, championing the Toad Red vision with a daring, experimental trip through abstractmodular-synthesizer processes that build towards a jacking rhythmic throw-down.

The Berlin based label presents "Showcase Dub Vol. 2" with tracks by Gunnar Hemmerling, Brendon Moeller, Lars Hemmerling, Lars Fenin.

Have you ever been in that situation, when you can't percept anything all around you and your own mind is into a state of reverie Where you can only feel the pain of being lost in your own space Well, this is the moment to go ahead and fight face to face to your unconscious. Meaningless ideas, coming to your head, stunning your feelings, and now you can feel a harbinger, to a dramatic state of life. Be brave, be strong. Wake yourself up in a way to escape and, find a meaning to feel alive and feel your senses once again. Faith will guide you into the path of light, and then, that light will lead you to the journey of the perfect daydream.
