formed in late 2014, berlin-based irish/australian duo evvol released their debut album ‘eternalism’ via !k7 records in the summer of 2015. following european live runs with peaches and yacht and worn out by the immediacy of preset-sound achieved through popular computer music programs, the pair holed up in their kreuzberg studio to write their wonderfully atmospheric and deeply personal ‘physical l.u.v’ ep. released last year to critical acclaim, it’s title track has now been given the deluxe remix treatment it deserves, with new cuts from two dutch artists at the top of their game. panorama bar’s first lady and ostgut records mainstay steffi kicks things off with a unique, downbeat interpretation of the original, showcasing the beautifully melodic and captivating style that has cemented her status in the realms of contemporary electronic music. next up her fellow klakson records honcho ramps things up with his own audacious take on the track. dexter’s first brush with the electronic music world was on the dancefloor as part of a breakdance crew. back then he learnt the power of rhythm and how to move a floor, going on to release on clone, rush house and ostgut himself, producing everything from pioneering electro to deeper house and raw techno.

einzelkind, randy fox, robin scholz and philipp boss join efforts to bring you hoer001. the joint effort ep, first instalment on the new frankfurt-based imprint einfach hören, contains four hardware-driven house-jams, all ready for excessive club-use. honoring the godfathers of housemusic, the producers invite you on a journey into ecstatic rhythms, funky basslines, lush pads and wicked vocals garnished with the imperfection, roughness and the evolving character of a neverending jamsession in their shared studio.

there’s not a lot to tell about the project glow in the dark by a certain harry miller. only perhaps we can state that with these eight tracks at hand harry miller accomplished probably the most enchanting album of the still quite young year. just when we wanted to dismiss the short-dated genre of chillwave wistfully, “future bliss” comes along with a bewitching sound hailing from an optimistic but cranky future. already the opening track “step one” with its vocal samples and its spoken word intro is futuristic soul full of affirmation of life pillowed on a synth bedding smoothed to the max up to its edges. but also the following seven tracks spread infectious positive vibes all around. the magic of glow in the dark’s tracks is energized mostly by miller’s delicate way of treating his various samples, a wary manner one usually only shows when picking up a guitar. and unlike sample based music feeding from hiphop his tracks are completely free from any sort of nostalgia, because all of his songs are designed for the future through and through. “future bliss” is one hell of a joy ride, from the first note to the last tone. the neon funk of “1987”, the broken beat of “7 billion = 1”, the synth pop of “the last dance” and in general, all of the eight tracks could be little, but great hymns on their own. but only in its entirety they sparkle this fathomless ingeniousness hidden in glow in the dark. in the end it seems to be wiser that one has as little background information as possible to be able to lose oneself fully in this “future bliss”.

vinyl only .. space is most definitely the place as far as the latest vinyl adventure from us here at future reactions is concerned. with galactic references aplenty, futuristic soundscapes and more than a hint of interstellar travel on the analog core ep, the only thing missing is an astronaut suit. manning the controls of this otherworldly craft is josé rico, a key figure in themadrid underground scene through his associations with the downbeat and freebeat labels, who blasts off with the raw emotional electronica of orion. that man rico also features alongside the much-vaunted leonid (dolly/sistrum/statik entertainment) under their joint studio guise of cygnuss. having made their debut on freebeat earlier this year with the well-received long player night drive, the duo are on a mission here to warm-up the dance-floor with their house-not-house rocket journey to outertape. hailing from buenos aires but with a sensibility rooted in chicago and detroit, diego perrisson caught the attention of the more discerning ears as co-owner of the short-lived but not-forgotten label monochromatic. turning heads once again with his new venture, fundamental sounds, perrisson captains a smooth touchdown with the cultured deepness of restless ride.

solarism is the result of a common fascination for landscapes and a passion for contemplation. after two decades of an unbreakable friendship, we have finally imagined a way to express what contemplation has offered us and how it connects us to the world, describing those experiences through musical compositions, dj performances and welcoming other artists to release their art. here is how markus described his mind’s landscape composing these pieces of music, and it talks more than any description: have you ever thought that you are two people? do you have memories that are so detached from who you are now that you sometimes believe they are not your own? like something you have read or seen in a movie? you wonder who that was, your very own tyler durden? and here he is with a gift from another time when i was another person, living so fast and unconscious that i eventually almost lost the only thing we really have – my life.

this is the second release from london producer/dj and apron regular shamos. -games and dreams- is the the follow on from his debut record -road works part 1-, carrying the same rawness, but with a bit more wisdom... this will be the last apron release of the year, so it makes sense to end the year the way we started. with a shamos record...

rotten city records welcomes a new citizen, but not a newcomer tothe scene. he is luca rocca atagliati, best known as dj rocca, a veteran dj and producer from italy, half ajello, half supersonic lovers, half from crimea, a third of electric tree and regular contributor with legendary dj’s like daniele baldelli or dimitri from paris. after his multiple releases on labels like is it balearic?, nang or futureboogie, luca joins to our beloved rotten city with two original tracks showing his darker, narcotic and narrative side, concocting a bizarre and labyrinthine disco, which develops a spiral shaped staircase from the inside.

we re really excited to be able to put one of our favourite ever wotnot releases to wax. it s a release that makes us particularly proud as we convinced k15 to let one of his house tracks out of the archive for the first time ever, as well as securing one of the few tracks to have been heard from up-and-coming wunderkind glenn kelly (jeeks), before he retired early from the circuit. four years after it dropped digitally, featured artists k15 and imyrmind have become household names, releasing music with eglo, wild oats, tartelet and money $ex records among others. this re-release also includes a new track from sexruleseverything who also featured on the original release. the tracks on this ep still stand strong, and the vinyl drops alongside the release of dancefloor sweets vol. 2, with more to come in 2017.

(exclusive outside japan) jig n hug single moist ep, featuring the beat broker (dream chimney) remix, will inaugurate the new japanese label monkey chop. the release is due in october.

with the opening track -i see you-, silent riders offer up a brilliant pop diamond combining all elements of their distinctive sound palette. lu’s soulful voice bounces off almost funky drum machines, all drenched in layers of dark analog ambience. on the lush -copenhagen dream-, lu channels a sense of brit-pop nonchalance into a political song about the state of her city. in contrast, -being afraid- sees the band in their hardest grittiest mode - with lu reminiscent of pj harvey at her most moody and the slow groove behind her like a factory machine beating and releasing steam. other highlights include the chilling -static- and the ethereal beauty of closing track -falling- which sees the riders in their most relaxed and dreamy state, and echoes the works of portishead and massive attack. a stunning debut - limited vinyl release - don’t miss.
