Every track is naturally dynamic with sonic rich musicality & keyboard melodies. Most likely the last LP of the SJU collective. Comes with full picture jacket! Essential Chicago house music.

GLENN UNDERGROUND coming correct on his second release of 2025 with 3 new original tracks. "LUMINESCENCE" hits the deep jazzy chords, while A2 "CHITALITY's" bouncy bass & drums bring the jack. B1 crosses the border into techy experimentalism.

Blissfull sounds.. moving freely between drum machines & synths to more organic instrumentation with rich arrangements never losing sight of a light ethereal feel. Check!

Sjunne Ferger was a swedish jazz and blues drummer, shifting more towards jazz after working with Don Cherry. From his ‘FAT’ Studio near the central Swedish town of Örebro, Sjunne Ferger crafted a small but radical legacy of genre bending music. With an open minded ‘anything goes’ attitude born from his jazz roots, compiled here are songs charting a transition from fusion beginnings via his debut 7″ with group ‘Exit’ through to a more blissful synthetic sound palette. Hypnotic ambient pieces written for short film swirl amongst the electronic & electrified- unreleased versions of ‘Destiny’ and ‘Candlelight’ hint at his sound to come, while the album culminates in the highlights ‘Night Rituale’ and ‘Childrens Mind’ -Intoxicating mixes of Sjunne’s influences & inspiration, they unknowingly hint at Mkwaju Ensemble and other key Japanese contemporaries, and bear witness to the Swede’s deep Eastern philosophical outlook. Retaining his own unique sound throughout, ‘Childrens Mind’ is a primer for Sjunne Ferger’s ‘Mindgames’ LP reissued on Strangelove later in 2021.

Who doesn't love a good edit? And who really does them much better than Danny Krivit, a veteran of the game with millions of them (probably) to his name. Here he turns his hand to Sjuya Okino's 'Thank You (feat Navasha Daya)' which is a jazz dancer with effervescing broken beats, busy chords and live percussion under a freeform scat vocal that brims with soul. On the flip, DJ Kawasaki edits a Dimitri Form Paris mix of 'Give Your Love A Chance (feat Clara Hill)' which has a Chic-style bass riff and big disco energy that's ripe and ready to bring good times to any party.

Snorkel Records proudly presents the third release in its 12'' single series: Samme Gamle Ulla by Olefonken. 'Ulla' is the Norwegian word for wool, and this record is woven from studio dust and soft synths. Wrap yourself in it before it unravels!

Der US-amerikanische Musiker Pachyman veröffentlicht am 23. Mai sein neues Album 'Another Place' über ATO!

Über vier Alben hinweg hat sich Pachyman als meisterhafter Handwerker des Dub-Reggae bewiesen. Inspiriert von Legenden wie King Tubby und Scientist, nutzt er Vintage-Equipment, erschafft monumentale Klangwelten und versteht intuitiv die hypnotische Kraft der Wiederholung. Mit 'Another Place' geht er einen Schritt weiter: Er verbindet Dub mit den vielfältigen Einflüssen moderner Musik - von der Synth-Pop-Ästhetik eines William Onyeabor und Yellow Magic Orchestra bis hin zu den tiefen, atmosphärischen Klängen von Basic Channel’s Dub-Techno. Ein Album, das Tradition ehrt und zugleich neue Klangräume erschließt.

Mit ihrer einzigartigen und wegweisenden Kreativität überraschen die schwedischen Progressive-Metal-Pioniere Vildhjarta im-mer wieder aufs Neue. Seitdem sie sich 2005 in Hudiksvall gegründet haben, arbeiten sie beständig an einer fast mystischen Identität, die in ihrem düster-atmosphärischen und technischem Sound wurzelt. Mit den heruntergestimmten Riffs, komplexen Polyrhythmen und unheimliche Klanglandschaften schaffen Vildhjarta eine einmalige Mischung aus Chaos und Melodie, die so außergewöhnlich ist wie ihr rätselhafter Schlachtruf: "Thall".Mit ihrem Debütalbum "Måsstaden" haben Vildhjarta die Metalwelt nachhaltig beeinflusst. Das hochgeradig konzeptionelle Werk erzählt die Geschichte einer komplett isolierten, mythischen Stadt und legte den Grundstein für ihren Ruf als Wegbereiter eines Genres. Nach der Veröffentlichung der "Thousands of Evils"-EP im Jahr 2013 zog sich die Band jedoch aus dem Rampenlicht zurück bis 2021, d.h. nach fast einem Jahrzehnt "måsstaden under vatten" erschien. Das Album setzt die Geschichte von "Måsstaden" fort und liefert 80 Minuten komplexe und dennoch zutiefst atmosphärische Musik, die Vildhjarta endgültig als Inno-vatoren etablierte.Vildhjarta stellen Konventionen in Frage und verweben Momente von beunruhigender Schönheit mit aggressiven Klangattacken. Seit ihren viralen Demo-Ära-Ursprüngen haben sie sich eine treue Fangemeinde erspielt, die es nicht abwarten kann, jedes neue Kapitel ihrer Reise bis ins kleinste Detail zu erkunden.Vildhjarta sind zweifelsfrei der Beweis für Innovation, künstlerische Integrität und unnachgiebige Kreativität.Thall."+ där skogen sjunger under evighetens granar +" ist erhältlich als: Ltd. CD Digipak, Gatefold 2LP, Digitales Album

Vinyl debut for 3 tracks that have been seriously moving dance floors the past few months. GLENN explores his tech side on this one, with jazz stabs, heavy synths, and hard 909s on the A-side. The B-side's "ACID DISCO" is more chill, giving listeners a chance to cool down and catch their breath.

The Norwegian indie-pop super-group with members from Making Marks, The Little Hands of Asphalt, Mildfire, Flight Mode and Elva return with a third album of original Christmas songs.

Get into that alternative, Nordic Christmas spirit! Christmas III at its heart is an alt-Christmas album: the songs are firmly rooted in December’s festivities, albeit not usually relying on the season’s traditional reference points. The songs hone in on the more ambivalent sides of Christmas - family, customs and the passing of time - with a keen eye towards the holidays’ most obvious function in countries close to the Artic circle: getting through the cold and dark times to celebrate the winter solstice and the turning of the sun. Drawing from Sufjan Stevens’ epic indie Christmas compendium and Phil Spector’s wall of sound classic A Christmas Gift From You, Christmas III is built on shimmering guitars, snow filled piano lines, gentle strings, springy vocals and dynamic drums - all steadily conducted by Sunturns’ own Sjur Lyseid (Flight Mode, The Little Hands of Asphalt) in the producer’s seat at his Globus studio in Oslo. With 3 songwriters (Ola Innset, Einar Stray & Sjur Lyseid) contributing to Christmas III, there’s an ever shifting sense of reflections. Parenthood and the struggles of the dark Norwegian winter is behind Ola’s track First Winter. “Sometimes I feel bad about bringing children into such a difficult world. Not so much with respect to daylight and the seasons, they’re just going to have to learn how to live with it, but with many other things – like war, poverty, climate change and even just death.” Back In Town might have been inspired by a discussion over whether Thin Lizzy’s “The Boys Are Back In Town” is a Christmas song or not, but it’s written about his youngest daughter Klara, to his elder daughter, about taking holidays with your family in a town you once lived. Einar pulls in Phoenix and Mew by the way of Jesus and Mary Chain on Crash Course Christmas, resulting in a seasick wave of a pop tune. “It’s a song about the guilt of not prioritizing your relationships. It’s been year of rainchecks and Christmas finally gives you some time to reflect. You’ve experienced so much and changed so much as a person that you almost forget your origins. Coming home for Christmas can then be a ritual of finding your way back to what you left behind." Drawing on the knitwear from the film Love, Actually, Turtle Neck, taps into the Backstreet Boys by way of Mac Demarco, with a sneaky reference to the legendary Norwegian Christmas hit En Stjerne Skinner I Natt. Album closer This Christmas / Next Christmas leans in on the hook for the Norwegian Christmas TV show Jul i Blåfjell, a multi-generational seasonal staple (essentially a daily children’s advent calendar kids show). “The song is about your parents ageing and needing your help – possibly really far away - while at the same time having your own children to take care of”. The cover artwork is a homage to Christmas dress codes for Norwegian men. Suits and shirts are a rarity in day to day life, but there are a handful of occasions that require some form of formal attempt at a suit: New Year’s Eve, National Day, weddings & funerals, and Christmas Eve: resulting in various degrees of sartorial elegance on the day (and on this instance, a hot summer’s day stifling the Christmas vibes, with ambiguous apparel instructions ahead of the photoshoot!).

Merry Christmas! Sunturns are Ola Innset – vocals, guitars, banjo. Sjur Lyseid – vocals, guitars. Einar Stray – vocals, keyboards, guitars. Eivind Almhjell – guitars, bass. Simen Herning – guitar. Jørgen Nordby – drums.
