kenneth anger may not necessarily be the name that will come to mind when listening for the first time - distracted, confused, disoriented - to puce moments debut album. yet it is the only one that will seem relevant upon second listen -narcotic, infernal, fascinating. puce moment does not only borrow a title (of his eighth short film, made in 1949) from the baron noir of experi?mental cinema . ghostly wanderings, satanic masses, mystical romances, mechanical hell: eve?rything in the duo from lille (france) and their album in form of an invocation to ancient sybarites authorities refers to the californian filmmakers obsessions.

the debut album by redredred, a contemporary artist from san francisco. michael wood, formerly of duo primary colors, began this project in 2012, taking inspiration from front 242, einsturzende neubauten, throbbing gristle, nietzsche and sartre. wood utilizes a simple setup of vintage analog synthesizers and drum machines, and records them on reel-to-reel

the second release of rotterdam-based electronic emergencies is a 3-track 12- by the mysterious project sos of unknown origin. title track wallonie is a dark and melodic electrotech monster, while aqua is a broody and even darker affair. on the b side, wallonie is remixed by moustache records david vunk and electronic emergencies own spacemaker in early rotterdam techno style.

>i keep asking myself where they take all that brilliant music from. its just as if somebody had poked a bees nest and then it all burst out. i feel deeply connected to the pampa style…< (terry hogann, the musical mistress, 10/2010). as was to be expected, pampa is steadily developing into a platform for cross-border electronic dance music. each pampa release sounds different from the previous and still pampa remains a conclusive musical planet. this is all the more surprising in the case of pampa005, which features two completely different artists: side a: nathan fake - xmas rush having reportedly recorded his track >xmas rush< in his london studio during a jam session, nathan fake (border community, traum, saw) has turned in a total brainfuck. its mercylessly exaggerated, psychedelic, inexorable, and at the same time sweet and heart-warming. a very rare mixture. unique in its consistency, we havent heard anything like it since the 90s. its so nice and overwhelming to have your ears exercised the right way again. evergreen… side aa: dj koze pays tribute to michael smith - >mi cyaan believe it< in the meantime, dj koze has moved on to completely different spheres. once again, he astonishes his public with an extremely danceable version of michael smiths >mi cyaan believe it<. having originally started off as a digital error, and recorded within a single night, this tune recalls the ruthlessness, rawness and revolutionary energy of public enemy

1 track continues with delivering some serious house music! after three releases we know their goal... epic house tracks rooted in the best tradition of chicago and early nineties productions. 1 track in three versions, main, mix and reprise. this 4th release in the series might very well be the biggest so far with a upbeat track that is build on a romantic classic groove and with a precise arrangement. slowly building and creating tension is what john daly can do like no other. this is a precision bomb with a devastating effect when an expert pilot drops it at the right moment

his release on jeff mills axis sublabel 6277 was the first in a series of amazing records, which made johannes volk become a very well known and highly acclaimed producer, liveact and dj. his initial appearance on heliocentric music features a stunning dancefloor bomb, which will spark large-scale-fires in clubs around the world.
the second track on this record comes from label-owner myon, who again delivers an epic journey through the periodic table of techno. for those, who listen closer!

wavetest are a new collective from zurich, 4 young guys in their early 20s which have their roots in disco and house. two of them have already released a single on chicagos mathematics label under their late invitation project name. they are also a great live-act with bass, keys and drum machines and their dj kejeblos is one of the most promising hopes of zurichs new generation. he is a resident at zukunft and was discovered and supporte by our buddie lexx.
we are totally into their groove as we really like their open-minded approach and we honestly believe in them. their tunes impress by a really forward thinking attitude and can be played at any time during the night. this is a perfectsummertime single and we just had so much fun playing the tracks out. because to us this is exactly what we call b-boy house.

here comes the second release on the pattern repeat label. pattern repeat is a new music-project and label by kenneth christiansen, echocord & echocord colour label boss, and his partner dennis bøg aka resoe, running the baum label.the pattern repeat label will only contains productions from kenneth & dennis, and the music is focused on the modern berlin techno sound today, dubstep and dub-techno. pattern repeat will also release records on other labels, so far the first one is out on echocord colour. kenneth and dennis met eachother 8 years ago when they worked together in at that time famous copenhagen-record-shop >loud<, which closed 5 years ago. at that time dennis was more into broken beat, hip-hop and deep house. kenneth was already running the label echocord, and soon dennis started his label baum. the label baum is also like echocord, releasing dub-techno, and dennis started to release his own material as resoe, and builded up his studio the years after. 1 year ago we decided to try to do a new project together, working together in the studio, and now pattern repeat is born.

well ok, no rule without exception... this beautiful joint from johannes albert is a little web 2.0 fairy-tail: the white rookie & cratedigga no. 1 moomin found a youtube clip of a dj hammering a super-deep, rough piano track in a club in the german city of paderborn. he didnt know the track, so he sent the dj a mail asking and a few mails later, the tracks from johannes were blowing away mr. offermanns ears. so the labelhead decided to make this the next white. of course first of all johannes & oskar had to meet a few times to make sure they understand each others vision well and after a few meetings they eventually became friends. so the labels movement towards the direction of house is continued by this release. wooden pearls is pure housemusic to the core. very wooden & grounded in the lower spectrum and crystal clear up in the sky. these very honest and timeless tracks tell us a story. the story of johannes alberts passion for house. since he was 15 years old, he is a fan. from the german franconia he follows house throu his local recordstore >swing king<

first release of john dalys new label called one track. each release dedictated to one track which will be presented in several versions. these are tracks that john loves playing in his own sets and he is so friendly to share these tracks with us. meltdown is a crispy hypnotic tracks that has that lovely mood that mr.daly always creates in his tracks... he combines this with an irresistible updated larry heard groove. fierce classic chi-town drum patterns performed in a crispy modern way. the b-side gives 3 other versions and takes of the track which make it an perfect dj tool. john daly quality!

tony nwachukwu is a pioneer and his musical roots go way back. he was the mastermind behind attica blues on the legendary mo wax label and has produced wonderful music which is still timeless. remixes for people like unkle, macy gray and even duran duran prove how incredible he is. at the red bull music academy he teaches his skills to young talented producers and has established an interesting night at londons plastic people called cdr where they only play unreleased music. cdr has also worldwide events. with burnt progress he gives young producers the chance to release their music on his label. his first ep for drumpoet is championing his big love for techno(logy) and equipment in general and underlines the great musical knowledge and open-mindedness of this forgotten legend he is! the ep has already huge support from some of the best djs around and the quality of all three tracks whether it is the detroit-ish t time too the twisted outta ere or the broken flowin is impossible to ignore!

er hat es wieder getan... seiner eigenen tradition treu bleibend, dem synthetischen ende von disco ein modernes denkmal nach dem anderen zu setzen, schafft auch “don t go” diesen spagat zwischen vergangenheit und zukunft, zwischen glückseeligkeit und gnadenloser abstraktion. “don t go” ist ein klassischer köhncke hit, inklusive infektiösem hook, einer halsbrecherischen und doch mitreissenden bassline und irren Überraschungsmomenten, dieangenehm an der hirnrinde kratzen.... ein herrlicher wahnsinn. auf der b-seite erwartet uns ex-closer musiker dirk leyers mit einem tief pumpenden remix von “(it s gonna be) alright”, einem unserer lieblingstracks desletztjährigen albums “safe and sound”. leyers katapultiert das légère original mitten auf den mainfloor, ohne dabei auch nur einen funken deepness aufzugeben. alle reden über house. wir tanzen lieber dazu.

after much consideration, rong music and dfa have compiled a (somewhat) new take on the early- 80s new york city no wave sound.

joel mull, another representative of the swedish techno community, releases his current vision of what is to happen on the dancefloors. it is different from what his fans know from the early days. with his debut single on cocoon >harmonautic string<, joel mull sends us to a journey through the track which is smoothly airy-fairy and thus perfect to dive into the land of dreams after a wild party night. even when speeding up after a short break with the drums dominating – the track remains harmonic and is designed to dance into the sun in the early morning hours. the b-side appears spacy and melancholic, but again, mull is able to layer his music so deep and brillant that the basic mood is still vicious with the track still coming along in a magical and elegant way. >blossom< is exactly the right thing for a cold winter night and reminds of the b-side of beyers cocoon release

kanzleramt welcomes mike gates from the usa. mikes >die trying< is an unusual techno-mix at 115bpm, it has hiphop oriented sounds used as rave-signal with a hint of an 80 s charm. mke gates has been producing music since 1995, he works together with various hip-hop and techno artists and had a few releases on labels like dj slips creation rebel

having spent most of 2012 so far further establishing itself as a global bastion of forward thinking electronic dance music, the rwina label is changing things up a little with an ep from young dutch producer jameszoo.
on faaveelaa jameszoo displays the kind of brazen ingenuity that youth affords by drawing inspiration from dancehall before finding its edge to craft an entirely new take on the genre and using that to paint a colourful sonic picture of what he imagines a favela might look like. sounds mad? it is, in a good way. by his own admittance the picture he paints is also a bit messy, yet there is beauty in chaos. as for the inspiration, it can sometimes be hard to hear at first though anyone familiar with jamaicas dancehall tradition will recognise the instantly catchy quality of faaveelaas riddims.

the alfur ep is the second in the trilogy of records written by individual members of the old apparatus collective, which will be released in three month-by-month instalments.
alfur, produced by a. levitas, offers a view of the rusted old apparatus universe from another angle, a suite of songs that weave together deep feeling and influence into a complex and very listenable ep, built for deep listening at loud volumes. alfur is a mystical, deeply atmospheric five track set, recalling the spooked ambience of third eye foundation and earlier tricky material, with gauzy layers filtered through electronica and hip hop’s modern digital mechanics.

for the first solo ep on horror boogie, fedka the irritant steps up, after his outstanding track on horror boogie 01. fedka the irritant is probably best known as the trombonist in the excellent band pest (ninja tune), alongside ben pest (panic bridge, victim, bonus round). he is also a seriously original and versatile producer in his own right. he has released on panic bridge, alongside the other pest members and his trombone techno live sets are something to behold. here, he drops four varied tracks, starting with the behemoth >words for friends<. a heavy slice of wonky techno, with a big kick and rasping synth. next up is one uncertain eyebrow. a building, funky, fuzzy acid-laced track that drops harder and harder as it goes on. on side b, calypso-flavoured, jazzed up >stick it< progresses on to a become a warbling bass effort with a smooth hip-hop vocal. last but not least, is >you only die once<, another funk-laden monster, with a killer slap bass line.

with his second release for planet mu this year, >dream on< is more of a full-length outing for ital aka daniel martin-mccormick and a much more substantial record than the popular and critically acclaimed >hive mind<.
on >dream on< ital takes his experimentation with house and techno forms even further, creating impressionistic deconstructions from the tropes of early house and techno. sunny chords, laid back drum shuffle and rhythmic vocal loops are picked apart and threaded with a rich psychodrama of delirious textures, tidal chords and uneasy roughness and dissonance.
vinyl format ships with digital download code.

editions mego is happy to announce a vinyl reissue of the long out-of-print and impossibly rare final harry pussy album, the monumental >lets build a pussy<. originally released in 1998 after the band broke up, this has always been an elusive release.

berlin based martsman steps up for the latest techno release on pushing red. shrank and nycd both weigh in at less than 130 bpm despite bucket loads of shuffle. youd be forgiven for describing these sounds as garagey. shrank has some uplifting progression and plenty of hi-hats and nycd backs it all up nicely with some dub influenced tripped out sounds. another top release from pushing red. their third this year in fact.

markus wormstorm, the one man phenomenon, is back with his new album. in it wormstorm experiments with down tempo pulses, bernard herrmann style compositions , african click singing, anime &#769,,,sampling and xhosa rapping. unlike his previous albums, wormstorm presents a whole new style called african electronic , which combines his passion for the cultural effects of south africa along with his expertise in electronic music and classical composing. figure in field consists from a various amount of collaborations, keeping you captivated and fascinated leading into his fantasyworld and - at the same time - into the reality of modern south-africa.

heard on “melancholia” are interpretations of honzo’s subconscious visions of life. the intense compositions are made up of drones, noises and distorted beats moving in and out of the frame. on opener “orientalism” said elements blend with hi-hat brushes, brassy synth pads, sci-fi noises and distant human voices evoking islam’s “adhan” (call to prayer). the theme contemplates over alienation caused by western accounts of “orientalism”, soaked in “hüzün” (the turkish term for melancholia). on a2 a rework of “moral masochism” is provided by the mysterious shadows outfit, starting with a distorted guitar over a slow and gritty rhythmic backbone which gradually turns into a chaotic high-intensity acid jam on the ep’s most dance floor suitable cut. on the flipside, “lovesickness” presents a broken kick rhythm periodically flipped by toms and accompanied by a disorienting hi-hat rhythm, ghostly strings and sporadic human moans – all resulting in a tribal mood, recalling a ceremony, perhaps a quest for a saviour from the blue temper? b2 presents the “moral masochism” original. again a distorted guitar plays over a slow rhythm, but compared to the remix, the original’s intensity is introverted, contemplating over melancholia’s effect of deriving gratification from self-inflicted moral humiliation. ambient closer “emptiness” explores a cold state with such an encapsulating airiness that it feels like a close account of another person’s mood down to the impression of their breath. arpeggiated synth noises appear from a distance representing increasing pressure from the outside world without ever suppressing the state of mind. as a result, “emptiness” sums up the state of melancholia experienced as a mood rather than the effect of a cause.

let, the young but already assured label from the amsterdam based party crew presents their next release from close friend, robin kampschoer. he previously released music on studio soulrock and redevice, and it is hypnotic, deep and painstakingly produced stuff that makes maximum impact with minimum effort. his first productions for the label come with a remix from none other than detroit s luke hess. serene and blissful rollers that will take any dance floor to a higher mental plane.

zaquoir alias matthias groß is a producer and musician currently living in leipzig. after sending us more than 10 gigabites of great music, we sat down together and tied a selection of his really eclectic styles of production together into one lp, creating some sort of showreel created in the timespan of over 15 years. zaquoir himself sees the record as a reminiscent mood of a donkey in the sardinian sun and describes the record as a trip in itself, allowing the listener to traverse the lines of various acoustic landscapes. the tracks on the lp where produced in six different places, including a historic house in the centre of vilnius, the artist residency blumen in leipzig, a french-german art association and a village in northern bavaria.

the first time ever on vinyl: the original soundtrack of zbigniew preisner /kieslowski / 3 clolours / trois coulours / 3 farben: red / rouge / rot 1lp+cd

seit der begründung zur jahrtausendwende war pop ambient immer eine herzensangelegenheit: sorgfältig kuratiert von wolfgang voigt, zeigten diese veröffentlichungen nie ein sonderliches interesse am tagesgeschmack. eher genredefinierend als trendsetzend, folgten sie ihrem eigenen weg und etablierten eine einzigartige Ästhetik irgendwo zwischen experimentellen field recordings, no-age musik und geschmeidigem synthie-pop - wir nennen es auch gerne fahrstuhlmusik für vertikalverweigerer.

black truffle is thrilled to announce reverse tree, the new lp from the acclaimed duo of eyvind kang and jessika kenney, two musicians who have established themselves as powerful voices working at a unique intersection of contemporary composition, improvisation, and asian traditional music forms. either individually or as a pair, they have worked in contexts ranging from performances of traditional persian and javanese music to collaborations with sunn o), but their work together as a duo (documented on the face of the earth and aestuarium, both released on ideological organ/editions mego) most clearly represents the central concerns of their diverse practices: a music of the inner life of sound, demanding ritualistic focus and promising heightened sensations.

after an ep on creme organization off-shoot jericho one as dj plant texture, dona basile now assumes his dona alias for a new ep on the main label. entitled the v.g.p sessions, it features four new cuts from the italian, with three of them being dj pt mixes. up first is a live cut version of energia , a bristling electro track with globular bass and coarse hits. turbulent but full of synth based serenity, it is a fine start. cigarettes (djpt mix) is rugged and broken, with glossy idm synths and corrugated drums all loosely arranged into something prickly and unsettling. the deads at twelve (djpt mix) then gets even more fucked up, with rusty synths and blown out drums making for a dystopian house groove that will likely soundtrack the apocalypse. last but not least, nr. 13 (djpt mix) mixes up detroit synths, wild acid, heavenly chords and chopped up, buried deep vocal samples into something that will fire every synapse in your body. this is outlier stuff from dona that sounds like little else.

brussels based young producer lostsoundbytes develops an haptic music, diving sometimes into cryptic and anxious foggy areas through analog materials experimentations. drum machines dives into the mud, acid lifts, synthetiseur flying over the swamp and gusts of claps . after split release on land of dance & lost dogs entertainment, he gives a slice of weird acid-industrial-house and makes no compromises on activities records.

valencia s daniel kyo arrives at the bordello with a 12- brimming with his hometown s synthesizer traditions. evanescence spills brooding bars across clean percussion. stripped down rhythms buttress shimmering synthwork, cold bars coarsened by acidic undercurrents. and within this pared back style there lies a groove, a subtle development that grow into full bodied floor jams. an ep of electronic elegance and robust proportions.

alien jams presents planet bangs, the 4th album from nochexxx, following on from 2015s dirt-driven apocalyptic electro jaunt plot defender (type recordings). this six track lp plants another stick in the mud, showcasing the producers love for oddball tape-saturated electronic delirium. planet bangs is clearly an ecosystem in distress..., metawitch s clanging rocks paves the way for creepy unsettling yelps and 303 squelch - an acid drenched broomstick joyride over mounds of rolling subs and hilly sines-waves - on stickshift, straight-jacketed conga loops barely spit enough voltage to hold pace, like a sputtering raymond scott machine in respiratory collapse. wafting familiar smoke signals originally lit by 90s era warp and detroit techno, overhound springs out the trap with a booty bounce towards the finish line. artwork by zeke clough. 180g vinyl, mastered by rupert clervaux.

the ninth release on the dsr-c series comes from rhine. a new name with his roots in atmospheric techno steps up for his first solo ep.the ninth release on the dsr-c series comes from rhine. a new name with his roots in atmospheric techno steps up for his first solo ep. de storm opens the account with a loose collage of textured drums and scuffed-up synths. it makes for a bubbly groove that journeys far off into the night while de bron is more rooted underground, with cavernous echo chambers run through by supple bass synths and icy hi hat trails. spooky and haunting, its a track to send shivers down your spine. last of all, het meer is a watery affair, with aqueous drips and drops, radiant pads and then more tightly coiled drums brushing up against one another to make for something atmospheric but also nicely driven. all three tracks are characterised by a rather tender and reflective mood that makes them all the more unique.

femur s second release goes deeper into totally unsettling, dark and gloomy sounds. this time with one of our most valued fellow artists celldöd. we are proud to press the track -terrorbalans- for the first time on vinyl. it had been previously released on cassette by celldöd himself on his own platform brutal disciplin. he has also included two unreleased tracks, the machine-like -svart sira- and -socker-, dirtier and naughtier. the closure to this second reference is a magnificent remix by swedish duo fishermen, originally released on brutal disciplin, too.

obwohl die letzte kompakt-offerte aus dem studio der legendären russichen synthesizeristen scsi-9 schon eine weile zurückliegt – 2008, um genau zu sein, mit dem album “easy as down” (kompakt cd 068) -, hat co-gründer und techno/house-virtuose anton kubikov nicht auf der faulen haut geaalt, sondern sein eigenes label pro-tez records gepflegt – und eine karriere als solo-künstler mit klarem drang zur verdubbten tonlandschaft und ambient-musik in die wege geleitet. whatness ist seine erste solo-album-veröffentlichung unter eigenem namen und webt einen luftigen wie schillernden klangteppich, der genau da weitermacht, wo kubikovs exzellente beiträge zu unserer pop ambient compilation-reihe aufgehört haben. anton kubikovs besonderes ohr für ambientes und tonale räume war schon immer integraler bestandteil von scsi-9s musikalischer dna, die gerne zwischen fokussierter tanzathletik und ausufernden melodieräumen changiert – doch erst als solo-künstler macht er sich daran, diese räume wirklich auszuloten und geheimnisvollen klangspuren in neblige, hallende gegenden zu folgen. kubikovs gastspiele auf mehreren ausgaben unserer pop ambient-serie deuteten auf ein vielverprechendes neues projekt im talentpool hin – ein versprechen, das mit dem mitreissenden klangbad von whatness mehr als erfüllt wird.

variations on memory is an ongoing project by max schreiber, who records memorial day songs intuitively, the way they were carved in his own memory. schreiber takes the national memory to the most personal place and creates his own interpretations of the classic songs. the songs are usually recorded in one session. the final outcome, with its off-keys and inaccuracies, gives a new meaning to these memorial songs, and formulates imaginative soundtracks to hebrew horror movies.

a1 is a deeply psychotic acid death march into confusion, so minimal and primitive (kick, snare, acidsquelch) it will challenge every beard and armpit and might even hypnotize the dj to the point he cannot mix in the next one. a2 is a straight up commodore 64 sid track with mongoloid data elephants tooting over a wobbly and tarded electroish beat. b1 is a dystopic dreamy rave stomper, starting out kinda datacuddly but gets more and more serious, with choirs of fable mooers taking you into that virtual bad trip you need. b2 continues as expected with more c64 sid madness, so snary i cant even determine if its in 115 or 230bpm.
