the shapeshifters’ studio mastery and dedication to his craft has resulted in singles that stand up alongside golden era disco records as much as they sound fresh on dancefloors today. his rich relationship with glitterbox has yielded instant classics that epitomise the label’s ethos for preserving disco’s mission to uplift and empower, especially with his latest release and debut collaboration with the grammy, tony and emmy award-winning billy porter, ‘finally ready’. now, another of the label’s nearest and dearest, dimitri from paris, steps up to remix the shapeshifters’ latest on a special 7” vinyl package. co-written with billy as a declaration of pride, dimitri adds his signature stylish flare onto the suitably theatrical original. split into two parts, pt. i on the a-side keeps billy’s unmistakable vocal at centre stage, with funk-fuelled organ chords and rich keys bringing dimitri’s sound of paris. on the flip, pt. ii is a more stripped back version, allowing the classic disco instrumentals to really shine, as a previously unheard and powerful spoken-word vocal from billy narrates along with improvised vocals taken from the studio recordings. expertly crafted and brimming with emotion, the joyful message of ‘finally ready’ rings true through billy’s lyrics on both mixes, as dimitri from paris brings a new dimension to this dancefloor essential.

limited capsule collection 3/3 from midnight shift

after two years of silence and two tracks surreptitiously posed on the canvas, it is with the four captivating titles of the ep bleu nuit that the group finally confirms its talent to the general public...o.

third full length album by circa tapes (solo project of adam killing of kill memory crash). following excellent previous releases on romance moderne and dka, this third album displays the evolution of killing s spot on ability to masterfully blend dark early 80s synth, industrial and cold wave into a completely new entity. much heavier and wonderfully darker, this lp will appeal to fans of classics like skinny puppy, as well as cutting edge ebm contemporaries such as broken english club, boy harsher and other cold wave / industrial hybrids.

tapes at the control! superstar follows up his previous 12inch for the estonia s porridge bullets, this time with a collab project with tapes (jahtari, em, sextags, meeuw muzak) ltd pressing, cut reggae 45 style (large centre hole) big tip! a disconsolate love-cry of a man gripped with feelings of loss. emotions laid bare on a tender night-drive dub with tinkling synths, recalling the memories of an unearthly beauty.

apollo proudly presents the debut from haramia tapes, a new mysterious side project from renowned hungarian electronic music producer laurine frost. more usually known for his refined techno sensibilities, frost has packed pfunk with deftly programmed rhythmic structures and infused it with low slung bass and jazzy textures that make for a sumptuous, enveloping listening experience, ideal for fans of nonkeen, jazzanova or leftfield. pfunk contains seven unique beat sessions - smooth funk, crossed with unique broken rhythms, live drums, bass and found sounds - shot through with cinematic melancholy. from the elegiac piano of opener i am you to the twisted drunken breaks of pfunk to the cooled out percussion and spaced atmospheres of hail, or the moody spy-movie atmospherics of farewell four - this is an album that traverses a variety of moods and textures, effortlessly fusing traditional instrumentation with modern electronics and a perfect addition to apollos beguiling canon of mellowed out grooves.

tapesh is joining material family and deliver a big ep

the second release on the vinyl only series of apes go bananas finally drops. the label is the new imprint from steve bug and clé, who together make up the production team for the releases. as with the well-received first ep, all we have is straight-up, no-nonsense, dance floor-filling house tracks. lead cut ‘all we have settles right into the groove with crisp and funky percussion, chi-town chords and amazing vocal samples. its got peak time written all over it. she cargo makes its influences pretty clear via the title, and the track certainly references some of the iconic sounds of the home of house. thick, rubbery bass lines, squiggly synths and firing percussion combine to deliver a suitable a homage to the windy city. ‘ape parade is built from some similar materials, but the chords are a little more lush and deep - synth strings and keys add a sense of the epic, and everything is tied together with a sick kick / snare / hat pattern. three modern killers for the floor, infused with the spirit of classic house.

mini album lp/ep 140gr with blue inner-sleeve and features cd. the cd included in the ep features the 5 tracks in the same order.
after the critical success of their first ep bleu nuit released in 2013 at craki records and their sold out french tour opening for mancunian band wu lyf, apes & horses are back on 27th may, 2016 with a new mini-album called echo, released at because musics. aurélien hamm (voice, music) and pablo altar (keyboards, production) deliver us a dark, divinely vague, spacious and sensual pop. in this record, feelings are expressed through a sublime and moving haze, but there are still turbulences beneath the surface, seduction behind sadness… the ep has been produced by ash workman (christine and the queens, metronomy, etc), and the management is well carried out by the promo director of beggars uk and tony wilsons former assistant (the boss of the legendary label factory). a fantastic team for a promising band.

next up on the church white imprint is apes, following on from his well received vanilla ice offering on the latest volumes, he returns to the fold with his deep and emotive three track ep: mosaic

modern tapes are back with a new ep on floyd unit records! the pairing of the techno producers, living between bari and new york, and ian russo has yielded 2 extraordinary tracks where 90s industrial techno meets spacey dub chords and lush ambient soundscapes.

apes go bananas is the new imprint from steve bug and cle, and also the moniker for his new project with long time friend and collaborator cle. the vinyl only debut release sets out the stall in fine style - this is straight up dance floor rocking house music with a sense of fun and plenty of influence from the golden age of the art form.

a new sub label for us, church volumes featuring friends from peckham, l.a & vancouver. limited hand-stamped white label copies.

lastcopies !!! arktapes whispers its papers from the southern hemisphere. his compositions make for fine spaced out and atmospheric jams, strongly grounded in deadly grooves. a sweeping homage to the roots of our music genre, with a taste for novelty.

hailing from the industrial northern heartland of france, romano rapeso presents four techno cuts on the resopal label. he regulary plays club weetamix and together with techno s finest and most respected dj s including our big sven vath. now you have the chance to experience manipulation ep in its full beauty. climbing synth themes float amongst a barrage of drums in this rather anthemic yet controlled studio session from rapeso. the ep contains four tracks with some really heavy, prominent raw grooves. serious club food - played by sven amongst others.

seb wildblood returns to the skint imprint as a follow up to his 2014, barcelona / blue colour ep. shadowed by his label mate apes, this release sees the two take on either side of the 10 inch with a familiar sound echoed by their church imprint. wildblood ignites the record with the bubbly and soothing concocton of noshi that fows seemingly under the vocals of phantasy afliate kelly lee owens. apes sits close on the fip side with a more club friendly ode to london, mortmer road. an eerie night time synth crawls through the suburban sounds of apes we ve been conditoned with since the up-rise of the church sound.

...and tapes added electronics - a shot of drum song and a giddily intense binghi dub. total murder.

cool driven 2x12 inch

after a brief hiatus church are back with a debut offering of original material from apes. the a side *two thousand six* is a straight up techno work out, having been tried and tested this track is aimed directly at the dance floor. chaos in the cbd are on board for the remix taking us on a journey of warm, deep, subtle analogue house fresh off the back of their stand out track *78 to stanley bay*. the b side *cold love* goes some way to show apes’ versatility as a producer, it’s a nostalgic piece of work, with a pulsating bass-line driving through the track along with intricate percussion and a choice vocal sample to round things off. cold love is equally suited for the club or for home listening. apes right hand man seb wildblood takes the track in a slightly different direction, using elements of the percussion and transforming the vocal sample for a delightful melodic contribution to the ep. early support from paul woolford, breach, ben pearce, dusky, alexander nut & more.

landshapes is the sound of four people in a dingy practice room, building on accidents, listening over and reworking obsessively until every band member is satisfied. an unconventional and serendipitous a process it might be, but it is crucial to landshapes overall sound.
their debut album rambutan – the name chosen *not so much after the fruit but for the sound the word makes* and produced by ash workman is a distillation of songs old and new, re-worked and fine tuned with a deft precision.
vinyl lp includes cd-version of the album.
