Surface re-emerges from the murky depths of Londonshire with part 2 of the new project / sub division 'Beneath the Surface', a series of releases forthcoming sporadically over the next year or so, delving beneath the surface and blurring the boundaries of the deeper shades of house and techno.

White Vinyl Pressing!
The Deepblak Chief Alchemist kicks of 2014 with his first EP since relocating to Berlin, and reflects the different modes of the dancefloor experience as filtered thru AYBEE’s metronome. Driving, atmospheric, and at times euphoric AYBEE melds these narratives into an EP that carries the emotional colors of an album. "22 Meters" also sees the vinyl release of "Akiara" a long standing Deepblak favorite from the previous digital "Blaktropolis 2" comp.

Released almost exactly a year on from their debut 'Struck' EP, Liam Morley and Dan Valentine return with 'New Brutalism', an exploration of angular, brittle club music.
Referencing the stripped-down, utilitarian aesthetic of Brutalist architecture (a detail of Preston bus station features on the cover), the 5 tracks here mine looped, blocky source material gradually embellished with more complex percussive and atmospheric layers that are at once robust and introspective.
From the opening woodblock/rave dismantling 'UK WIll Not Survive' to the heady Hardcore of 'Three Day Jag', the EP evokes a distinctly Northern British Weltanschauung, a joyous revelling in melancholy that goes as far back as the earliest dances documented in Mark Leckey's 'Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore' - somehow unique to British nightlife.
The EP closes with the industrial clang of 'Run Out', the cacophony slowly converging into an alignment of percussion and space, trigerring that feeling of re-emerging into daylight at the end of a long night. Blinded by all the light... by all the possibilities.

The first track is reminiscent of a military drum ritual dating back to the middle ages in which drums were used to create a melody that would call the soldiers on their feet at dawn. The second original track is a destroyer with intermittent drum patters and analogue bass lines that will leave nothing unaltered. Conrad Van Orton's takes us deep into the eery world that lies beneath us. Patrick Krieger's interpretation is a magical dance floor track with eminent eloquence.

Following his solo debut on 3024 with 'Convexations' / 'Falling Again' towards the end of 2011 we're very pleased to welcome Damon Kirkham back to our trans-continental fold again, this time with another long time friend of the label in tow. Since that initial EP, follow up releases on [nakedlunch], Non Plus and his own recently formed Convex Industries imprint have rapidly established the Jon Convex sound in its own right, taking his former group Instra:mental's tireless explorations on the analogue frontier and recalibrating it directly for the warehouse floor. First featured track here is 'Lied To Be Loved', featuring the ever building vocal talents of dBridge (last seen round these parts voicing Martyn's 'These Words'). Diamond tipped drum programming is met with a reprise of 'Convexations' Moroder/Human Centipede bass, fashioned into something far more brooding & glowering here. dBridges vocal drapes it's self over the rhythm section like a particularly unavoidable raincloud as keening synth washes and resigned harmonies build towards a disorientating tension that fragments before ever attempting to resolve. 'Zero' snaps proceedings back into sharp clarity, with the kind of muscular Edison funk that can trace it's lineage back to Dússeldorf via Rotters Golf Clubs, The Scene & Beat Street. An uncompromising forward march of a beat and electronically distorted female syllables vainly fight for space with the Bootsy-by-way-of-Cybertron bass line that arrives to dominate the arrangement, as a morse code anti-melody attempts to fill in the gaps left behind by Boots-atron's trail of destruction. 'Stay' closes the EP, drawing a line under what's come before with perhaps the most melodically refined piece of Convex material so far. Drifting in on billowing synth chords and a deceptively muted electronic kit, a blissfully androgynous vocal trace introduces a synth arpeggio that twists, expands and contracts throughout the tracks duration, sometimes running alongside that same vocal clip before incorporating a second melody at the tracks peak and fading out of sight. Matching the stylistic growth of the material Erosie's artwork retains it's fundamental role in 3024s identity, expanding his collage series into a fresh area of chromatic alchemy and spatial complexity while retaining all the elements of his own style.

Kumia is the title of the 13th release from International Sound Laboratory and is written and produced by ISL artist Tuomas Salmela aka Phonogenic. "Kumia" connects the sound of his previous release, "Artifacts" with the continuation of the latest developments from our Finnish collaboration laboratory in Tampere, Finland. This time we also sent a sample to specialist researcher Samuli Kemppi, who also is involved with heavy duty works on labels such as Luke Slater's Mote Evolver.

A diamond in the rough. Echologist aka Brendon Moeller is undoubtedly one of the most hardest working Techno artists around the globe and has left a prolific trademark in the electronic music world. His 10th album, Stroming Heaving' floods us with deep emotions and a unique sound experience. Prologue is always looking for new directions of electronic music and we feel strongly that this album fulfills the Label´s pursuit in a extremely exciting way. It will be treasured for years to come. This is music to immerse oneself in and explore sonic depths and worlds of synthetic sound that resonate on many levels . Brendon's intention for this album was to push himself beyond the comfort zone in an effort to make an album that more than any other project he has done will reveal a distinct and unique voice. While it reflects musical ideas from composers that have inspired him, he has attempted to personalize and interpret and therefore create something idiosyncratic yet nostalgic. 'The Frequency Of Love", the first track shows us what humans can do with machines. This is the perfect way to start the journey into this masterpiece. It is with pride and excitement that we present this to you. Dive in and enjoy the sound of an artist in full bloom.

Includes an insert with artwork by Alex Solman and handstamped sleeves
Searing, tormented darkside f**kery from Miles Whittaker and Sean Canty's Demdike Stare on their rinse and run Testpressing series.
A-side 'Fail' is a slowly descending panic attack of pealing hi-end frequencies and impending bass doom reaching a pit of noisy no return.
B-side 'Null Results' bruks loose with a scything jungle attack; frantic 16th note hi-hats and cone-crumpling subs laced with a rudeboy mentasm to incite warehouse capoeira. Come test.
