We welcome William Kouam Djoko to the Voyage Direct family with his first release for the label.
With this new release by the The Hague native, the label continues to release Dutch only artists. William delivers some late night house goodies here. The title track is a pulsating and hypnotic track that leads with a repetitive 'We Are Your Brothers & Sisters' vocal before diving into an epic organ and drum break.

'Enforce YS' is a deeper, warmer synth track that really gets under your skin after a few listens. This is the kind of stuff that fills the heart of a hi-tech soul fan. Should appeal to early Carl Craig fans et al.

Strong label debut, which shows that Amsterdam is increasingly becoming a pool of new underground house producers.

Straight groovy bassline monster with the special touch of the new blood of Mannheim...hope you enjoy

It is a cold dark winter - Snow is lying everywhere.Simon12345 and The Lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. They will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. Simon has got a handful of sketches with him. Musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years.Basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful - Although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. It is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what...nothing is set. The only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now.Tell me.How can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life How can you criticize without pointing at something particular How can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection
Let the contemplation begin
note:
Simon12345 & The Lazer twins is a band, they play instruments, everything on this record is played. They also play concerts. The record was recorded in a few weeks in northern denmark, but the postproduction and arrangements took over one and a half year after the intial recording process.

These Redux releases are like buses, we don't hear anything for ages then they hit us with three killer EP's in a row.
Following the Grand Corporation and Machete Savane comes the return of Phoreski.
We've not heard much from Phoreski for a little while, but you will soon hear why when you put the needle to the record on these two new tracks.
He's been busily building up his studio into an enviable aladdin's den of vintage kit, wires and analogue recording equipment.
All synths and vocals you hear on these tracks come from Phoreski, no samples, no guests, no edits.
He's been hinting at this raw, analogue authentic sound for a while, but these tracks showcase a producer at one with the machines. 'Brown Biscuits' comes across like some lost Italo/cosmic gem, but via the North East of England rather than the lakes of Italy. 'Machines' flexes tight proto-house rhythms with some bass that will make mince meat of lesser club soundsystems whilst the feuding synth lines fight for attention.
This is proper body music, play loud

INCLUDES A COVER OF PHUTURES YOUR ONLY FRIEND

Bewegte elektrische Ladungen sind die Grundvorraussetzung für Magnetismus und gleichzeitig eine Erklärung für das
Phänomen Northern Lite. Die Band, die vor 15 Jahren auf den Bühnen dieser Welt erschien, ist zum Anziehungspunkt
für tausende Fans aus unterschiedlichen musikalischen Szenen geworden. Northern Lite, das sind Tracks wie "My Pain",
"Reach The Sun", "Letters & Signs" und "We Are", das sind Synth-Pop-Elemete, elektronische Spielereien und klingende
Gitarrensaiten gepaart mit der unverwechselbaren Stimme von Andreas Kubat, der mit wenigen Textstellen ganze
Romane rezitiert.
Die Anziehungskraft der Erfurter Band geht vor allem von ihren Live-Auftritten aus. Wo sie sind, verstärkt sich die
Gravitationskraft um ein hundertfaches, werden Stunden zu Minuten und Scheinwerferblitze zu magischen Bildern wie
aus einer anderen Welt. Das Wasser perlt von den Wänden, die Hände schwingen in der Luft und die Münder sind weit
offen und besingen ihre Band, die Bits & Bytes zu großen Gefühlen verarbeitet. Genau diesen Moment haben Northern
Lite versucht festzuhalten und auf ihrem neuen Doppel-Album "We Are - Live from Berlin" eingebrannt.
Zweieinhalb Stunden lang ist der Mitschnitt, der einen direkt in die erste Reihe vor der Bühne verfrachtet. Schon beim
ersten Aufschrei des Publikums ist es da, dieses Gefühl, nicht loslassen zu können. Ekstase und Euphorie steigt in die
Knochen und diese kleinen, bewegten elektrischen Ladungen, jagen einem eiskalte Schauer über den Rücken.
"Running", "Looking at You" und "Black Day", Gitarrensolos und knüppelnde Snares , dazwischen immer wieder das
Publikum, das aufgepusht von sich hören lässt. Und dann eine kurze Pause, nur so lang der CD Player umschaltet und
plötzlich krachen "Home" und "Cocaine" durch die Boxen. Jetzt gibt es keine Zeit mehr Luft zu schnappen, alles
überschlägt sich und die alten Hits wirken lebendiger als je zuvor. Northern Lite pur, ungeschminkt und in ihrem
Element - "We Are - Live from Berlin" ist das wohl ehrlichste und schönste Werk, eines magnetisierenden Phänomens.

Originally released back in 2008, we are fortunate enough to have come accross some copies. 1st time from Kudos!
Mika Vainio is best known as half of Finnish cutting edge experimental electronica duo Pan_sonic.
Ø is Vainio's original solo pseudonym dedicated to his native label Sähkö Recordigs since 1993. Where Pan_sonic uses pure, industrial and sometimes harsh sound elements, Ø reveals Mika Vainio's deeper, passionate and sometimes even romantic side.

What exactly has happened to all the Chillout Floors Once being an indispensable place for cozy hangouts and relief at every good party, they calmly dissipated in the last decade. They were eventually replaced with second and third floors, all with the same standardized 'four to the floor' sound without attitude. And now Noom Café come with an album that sounds like being made in the best times of the Chillout Era. Is there a Chillout revival coming upon us For Noom Café this is not the question. They live for relaxed beats and low key soundscapes ever since. Their new Album 'Beyond Time, released by the Frankfurt label 'Elux', is like a fresh breeze on a Balearic evening in summer. Within the first minutes of the albums opener 'Baracoa', the listener gets a very clear impression of the musical quality of Noom Café. Acoustic instruments and swinging beats, like in 'Blue Sky',melt into electronic pads and reverberant vocal samples. In this manner Noom Café are creating their very own world, far away from the hectic of everyday life. Anyhow, a day at the beach touches on more than just sunshine. 'Beyond Time' takes the listener away from the worn out paths of the genre and sends him on a journey to darker sound realms. Reminiscences of Dubstep and Deephouse ('The Awakening (Next Day Mix)') are as well audible as the exuberant and almost progressive moments of 'Glass' und 'Stormy Beach.' Electric and experimental beats take control over the second half of the longplayer and guide the listener into the night just to smoothly embrace him again with the jazzy closing track 'Don't Fall Asleep'.Altogether 'Beyond Time' is much more than a typical chillout album. Noom Café takes you to their very own beach and it is a pleasure to share this voyage with them.

New Dolly sublabel! As Dolly is mainly focussed on classic Detroit/Chicago inspired house and techno, Dolly Dubs will widen the spectrum. First up is Staffan Lindberg from Sweden (known for his remix of Steffi's 'Yours') who delivers four excellent modern and sharply produced house/club tracks that will work on any floor.

Enzo Elia has been at it again, hard at work in the studio producing his next batch of Balearic Gabba Edits for Hell Yeah Rec. - the fourth in the series. Reception for the project so far has been great, with the likes of Prins Thomas, Sean Johnston, Tim Sweeney, Oskar Hofferman amongst the many fans, whilst Quiet Village have already been caning the A2 from this new instalment. The three tracker kicks off with Psycho Team's - 'Hypno' (Enzo Elia Barini Edit) - in its original form first released back in 1989 on Dance and Waves - and is all about restrained rave chord stabs, a crunchy amen break and layers of found sounds right from some basement party as the sound of voices and whistles are buried somewhere in the background behind intense drums and infectious finger clicks: a classy peak time floor filler and no mistake. And so to Quiet Village's favourite, also from 1989, Psycho Team's - 'Psycho' (Enzo Elia That Morning Edit) which is a much more delicate and moody affair. Watery synths ring out in all directions as gentle melodic rains falls down the face of the harmonised arrangement. Eventually a frazzled synth line takes the lead as strings dart about in the background but never do the knife-edge emotions dissipate. Last but not least is Endangered People - 'So I Want to Say (Ta Ta Ta') (Enzo Elia Ultra Dub edit) which was originally released in 1995 on Mantra Vibes. In the hands of Enzo the track is paired down to a bubbling sonic stew of taught synth lines, analogues bubbles and gurgles and icy percussion. It's a primordial soup of sound that doesn't drop or breakdown, but instead percolates and builds slowly for 7 odd minutes until ending up as a marching techno beat straight from the ruins of Detroit.

First release from this new label - 250 copies only. Killer stuff!
'Fortunate Alpha' by Fader is a track full of lush and layered sounds over a filthy groove and tight drum programming. Like an ode to the wave sounds of the 80's.
On remix duties we have the enigmatic Sir Stephen who's known for releases on 100% Silk and W.T. Records.
His take on 'Fortunate Alpha' is a dark and trippy twist towards the experimental dancfloors, warehouses and bunkers of this world.

‚Hide' is taken from the Album ‚Features' by Kris Menace.!

Electro techno songs and tunes. Full-out collaboration and crossovers. A fantastic album to Wicky Wackywith friends... all a concept !

'Red Nails' is a new album from Cherrystones, it follows the "My Snow Does Not Melt' LP released under his Godsy moniker for the Whatever We Want label, but is significantly different in feel & direction.It's a particularly personal sonic journey. A visceral, raw & unquestionably honest statement of emotions that demands attention. On 'Red Nails' he unleashes malevolent dub & darkened moog-works whilst post-punk machinations come up against deep industrial fracas all set within a mutated hip hop framework."This is my mood music my feelings, my emotions, exorcisms, joys and pain, laughs and terror. In some form the album is a fuck you to convention or the notion of playing safe with things, music or any form of expression " Cherrystones aka Gareth Goddard has been much lauded over the years, he has dj'd for Super Furry Animals, Sun 0))), The Horrors, The Libertines & Dangermouse. He has been chosen to host the final freak-outs for festivals such as Green Man & All Tomorrows Parties. He is a music lover first and foremost who happens to be a vinyl-digger par excellence. His knowledge and discoveries have been an inspiration to many esteemed producers from Gaslamp Killer to Psychemagik.Reflecting his punk rock roots, but coming out at a hip-hop angle with an astounding knowledge of music and a native intuition of how to tear shit up, Cherrystones is the sound of psychedelia-soundtracks-folk-rock-prog-noise-moog-library-records. But he's is no retro-merchant. What he does, and does astoundingly well, is to look to the past to build the future. Cherrystones music is imbued with cinematic Technicolor, you can almost visualise the movies in his head."Its part of the rebel music culture and community, the same things that led me to punk and all the music I love.. simple loves and fears, rejection, isolation, unity through groups and gangs and a heap of teenage adrenalin all mixed with adolescence, that's enough to fuel any teenage head looking for thrills."

Para One returns will the next single from his brilliant album 'Passion', following on from previous single EP 'Lean On Me'. 'When The Night' is a slice of futuristic, soulful disco.
'When The Night' will be released on December 3rd, with a vinyl EP release complete with remixes from his Parisian peers Logo, Discodeine and DVNO.
Jean-Baptiste de Laubier, aka Para One has long crossed the borders between house, techno, electro, R&B and hip-hop. From his Parisian base he's made a rich and influential career (alongside peers such as Justice, Sebastian and DJ Medhi) out of music suffused with a hyperactive intensity.

Following a slew of excellent releases on Project Mooncircle & Brownswood Recordings, including 2011's woozy anthem Lonely Town (110k YouTube views and counting), Eclosure marks a welcome return to the record shops for cult artist fLako. It also features the vocal talents of Dirg Gerner, who's earning quite a rep having been accepted into the RBMA in NYC, following stand out releases on cult label Ho Tep.
Already a firm favourite on Deviation and Worldwide, the latter on which he guested earlier this year after regular plays, fLako's stock has continued to rise, with a busy live diary including appearances this summer at Dockville, Outlook, Soundwave & more.

Spleen United , Danish Top 10 Heroes and one of the Live Sesations on This Years Roskilde, Fusion and Reeperbahn Festivals with their first International Release. After intense up-close studies of 'unintelligent dance music', the (clever) boys in Spleen United have reinvented themselves. At the same time, they have rediscovered melody and encapsulated a captivating energy that acts as a soundtrack to their exploration of euphoria - and the (inevitable) come down the next day. The last time we heard from Spleen United, they were the kings of airplay in Denmark, with massive record sales and plenty of acclaim for their unique take on electro rock. Now it's been three years since the single 'Suburbia' was the most played track on P3 - Danish National Radio. After that, it became quiet as the four members withdrew from the limelight and immersed themselves in some intense self-study. The self-selected experimenting years have once again pushed Spleen United in new directions, although the band still sounds unmistakably like itself - with all that entails in terms of melodic flair, lyrical depth and (intense/high) energy. In their third album, School of Euphoria, Spleen United offer a bunch of coherent songs, which each have their own life on an album where the guitars and the rock sound yields some space for drum machines and other analog techno-tools/instruments/machinery. But as the first single 'Days of Thunder' stressed from the first sound/beat, the growing machine park does not change the fact that you immediately know you're listening to Spleen United. The music is still captivating, it grows and it becomes more and more insisting with each time you listen to the songs.

The first release on Red Laser Records, a new label releasing fine italo, electro, boogie & house.
EP1 features four Mancunian producers & a Danish Italo legend.

Starion goes deep with a nonstop dancefloor workout and some serious synth action whilst Ste Spandex covers Royalle Delite's 80's electro soul classic 'Freak For You', pitching up the original and adding extra bounce to the proceedings The label has been spawned from Red Laser Disco, the monthly Mancunian micro-rave, brain child of Il Bosco & one of Manchester's best underground clubnights.
