My Favorite Robot Records team up with Canadian electronic music heavyweight Fairmont for a stunning new album of vocal driven techno that blurs the lines between indie & electronica..
Roving Canadian troubadour Jake Fairley aka Fairmont has built up a loyal worldwide following throughout the course of his ten year long musical career. Albums and singles for leading global labels such as Border Community and Traum Schallplatten have established Fairley as a key player in the world of electronic music, whilst his perpetual travels across land and sea, bringing his live sets to the masses, have bonded him with music lovers on the four corners of the planet. The past few years have seen Fairmont spreading his musical wings, with the his techno killer 'All Dreams Are Nightmares' on Areal and the disco tinged 'Emax/Bercy' on Beachcoma, but it is perhaps with his recent gothic/indie inspired releases on Border Community and Traum that he has given the clearest insight to where his future sound lies.
That future has seen Jake Fairley join forces with one of Canada's hottest exports of recent times, the ever- excellent My Favorite Robot Records. The Robot crew have been a long time followers of Fairmont's career and when the opportunity came up to sign him for MFRR, they jumped at the chance: one listen to Fairmont's latest LP and it's abundantly clear that this was a very wise move. 'Automaton' is a perfect fit for the Toronto imprint with his dark & melancholic yet heart warming mix of richly produced electronica and vocal led songs.
From the up tempo and stirring opener 'Creatures of Night' it's clear that Fairley will be pulling no punches; robustly mixed and taut with atmosphere, his vocals carve a channel through the deeply hypnotic electro influenced backing, whilst the live guitar parts give the record a distinctly 'indie' edge. This indie sound in fact runs throughout the album, from the soaring melodics of 'Waiting' to the quirky shuffle of 'Last Dance' and on to the gothic eighties inflected 'Tiny Diamonds'. 'Automaton' is an album that deftly marries influenced from across the decades, fusing 70s and 80s synth sounds with electro elements and themes from modern techno, electronica and indie pop. It is a darkly melodic record that highlights the broad musical talents of Fairmont and his ability to bend genres at will and is a wonderful insight into the world of this ever-evolving artist.In line with the release there will be a full album tour showcasing, a new incarnation of the Fairmont live show, highlighting Fairley's unique ability to perform what is simultaneously a rocking stage show and a killer dance-floor set.

Cerati makes the music. Di Angelo sings. Their sound is born of futurism, stochastic composition, new romanticism, aleatory music, and Negro spirituals.

iLa Tet is the voice and guitar project of Jamie Allan (aka Jamie Lloyd). The two tracks are reflective pieces, written in a intimate fashion from the heart.

KaRavan is Pierre Ravan´s personal concept based on music for all hours and minutes of the day.
The concept is based on a Spiritual Journey through Music from a soulful & deeper sound extending to a darker & progressive mood, all in one single journey linking the beginning with the end.

The Compilation consists of 2 CDs to complete the whole journey starting from Deep Love (CD1) where the Music is more laidback, so that you can decide on your own if you want to just dance in your head, or also with your feet, to Deeper Love (CD2), where the whole sound will build to a more driving sound and your feet will dance without giving you a chance to think about, to complete the whole Journey.

CD1, Deep Love, features tracks and remixes by Tony Lionni, Rocco, Pat Lezizmo, Miguel Migs feat. Meshell Ndegeocello, Osunlade, Till von Sein feat. Fritz Kalkbrenner & Thalstroem, Jimpster, Danny Daze & Matches and many others.
Of course also a production of Pierre Ravan is on board. 'Spiritual Meandering' which he produced together with Haldo.

CD2, Deeper Love, unites 12 more spiritual and deep techy house tunes. It features tracks and remixes by Ben Westbeech, Deetron, Tracey Thorn, Muzzaik, Gorge, Uner, Tuccillo & Kiko Navarro and many others.

You will love all 26 classy and timeless true house tracks on Pierre Ravan´s eclectic 'KaRavan - 'L.O.V.E.' double compilation.

after nearly a one-year hiatus, foundsound returns with a whoppin' four-tracker (available on vinyl and digital) courtesy of a french-speaking whiz kid. foundsound is stoked to welcome nicolas duvoisin to the family. nicolas duvoisin hails from geneva, switzerland. he is the owner of fantastic friends recordings. he is one-half of plastic fm. and he is known for creatively alternating between minimal, house and techno giving the dance floor a unique ass-shaking experience - such as with his releases and remixes on labels like snork enterprises, kindisch, kina music, siteholder, circle music, and many others. on walking ep, nicolas duvoisin carries you through a groovy tech-house joyride that is deep and floor- pumping at the same time - fueled by alluring grooves and savvy experimentalism. on a1 - "now you sing" - you float, bounce and glide through a mesmerizing tech-house gut-wrencher doused with a driving, forward-moving groove, mind-tickling vocal frolic and witty little breakdowns that'll make your spine tingle. on a2 - "love house" - the french-swiss mofo keeps it pumping with a rubbery groove and voices from underwater - making people dance with their arms spread wide open. on b1 - "my back" - you get a tripped-out floor-burner with a strong tech-house groove, clever sample- play, enthralling effects, climactic arrangements and a bouncy bassline that'll have people forgetting their own names. on b2 - "talk to him" - you have a refreshingly soulful tech-house gem with an old-school vibe fueled by housey synth stabs, breathy vocals samples, off-kilter percussion and an attractively bouncy groove. so don't just walk. run! dance! spin round and round! and all that good stuff.

While 'At The Club' was as firmly focused on the dance floor as its name suggests, 'Covers' is inspired by songs which Regisford loves and wanted to transform as only he can, reinventing the rhythms and creating soulful and deep house structures for 15 vocal and instrumental tracks.

Double-LP incl. mp3 download code (stickered). RGB is the work of an artist at the peak of his considerable powers, featuring music that literally could not have been created by anyone else.
Turbo Recordings is proud to present RGB, the fifth album from top-class veteran super-producer Zombie Nation. The LP's 14 tracks refine and expand upon the Munich studio genius' signature sound, making it a worthy successor to previous classics like Black Toys and Zombielicious, not to mention his groundbreaking work as half of cult demigods ZZT. This is some of the biggest-sounding dance music you'll hear all year, infused with a masterful attention to detail and one of the scarcest commodities in the genre: genuine character and personality.

Since emerging on the scene with a track on the shortlist of the biggest stadium anthems ever ("Kernkraft 400"), Mr. Nation has delivered a stellar series of albums, EPs and remixes, in addition to becoming a popular draw as a mindblowing live performer. His sound combines handmade Italian grooves, stark German efficiency, and a decidedly pro-ethnic swing. There is nothing overtly trendy going on here, no stadium EDM or poolside lifestyle house. These are off-the-leash party tracks that dance to their own tune. This pioneer of crowdsourced music creation is an absolute master of the MPC, and a true analog studio wizard, resulting in a feel simultaneously loose and tight, like a pair of Munich disco-lederhosen - bursting in the crotch and open on the calves.
RGB is the work of an artist at the peak of his considerable powers, featuring music that literally could not have been created by anyone else.

With his last record for Local Action picked up by Radiohead's Tom Yorke. This year started with a bang as Throwing Snow dropped the first XLR8R Podcast of 2012. Here we see his much aticipated first release for his imprint Snowfall including a remix return favour from Ghostly's Gold Panda. With a follow up due in the fall, live support slots for Daedelus and Bonobo and recent acceptance into RBMA New York this will signify a defining year for the burgeoning producer.

New EP from Tuff Sherm, aka Dro Carey.

Quinto Is Horny... And QNT. Vinyl Only, Limited Copies, No Repress!

"Output" defines analog modular sound designs with hypnotic beat structures. Like all productions of LIN/LOG organic electronic music is the main focus. His compositions defy conventional genre barriers and leave room for reflection and interpretation. But LIN/LOG is also a young micro label for modular sound designs.

Providence, RI's (recently relocated from Nashville, TN) Container returns with another slab of alternate universe bent techno. Schofield's take on that over used genre is not only unique but utterly compelling, forming a modern and exciting new sound. While the classic Container sound is still in tact, this album offers a look into a previously closed door in the Container sound world.

Super-limited 7" (300 copies for the world) in hand-made packaging created by Cru Servers.
Cru Servers is the audio-visual collaborative project of Glasgow-based brothers Rickie and Jamie McNeill, a duo who individually appear under a plethora of monikers including Fox Gut Daata, Perfumed Head, Burnt Altar and Voices Like Bones. The sounds made are a kind of Poundshop psychedelia, where permo flashbacks bring half memories of Marshall, Theo and Juan, and hardware remains their master and guide. The influences are diverse, and the resulting sound is both large-system-functional and highly original.

'Little Drummer Girl' is a stunningly rich, diverse and futuristic 4-track EP from the Brooklyn duo Tiger Fingers. A collaboration between Jordan Lieb (also known as Black Light Smoke) and Asako Kujimoto. The cheekily-named pair have assembled three unique remixes of their title track - each as bold and refreshing as the other. The A side kicks off with the original - all bubbling synths, arps and effects, and a subtle yet disturbing vocal from Asako. Beats and thunderous synth riffs combine with speak 'n' spell samples to produce a mesmerizing brand of 22nd century electro pop. Next up is the 'Night Plane Club Mix' - one of two remixes the Texan William Rauscher provides for this release. The club mix straightens out the groove and develops the track into a crisp house groover, finding plenty of space for old school sub bass, chiming 808 percussion and washed out, ethereal vocals - huge vibes for the floor. 'The Night Plane Remix' sees Rauscher explore more glitchy, post-everything, acid-flecked waters - an atmospheric, twisted stormer. Last but by no means least is the Hotflush man-of-the-moment, Jimmy Edgar. His take on 'Little Drummer Girl' uses the original as a springboard, from which he constructs a slamming electro-boogie-space-jam. Deeply funky, highly charged, and immensely inventive club music. 'Little Drummer Girl' is taken from Tiger Fingers debut minialbum which is due for release on hafendisko in December. About Tiger Fingers: The upcoming self-titled debut album by Tiger Fingers, the duo of Jordan Lieb and Asako Fujimoto, almost never saw the light of day. Recorded in the aftermath of their first collaboration, the aggressive electro-rock band Dead Radar (2005-2007), Tiger Fingers yielded six decidedly more dance and pop inspired tunes filled

Heavy hip-hop and bass deepness by hot new not new producer, DJ, beatsmith and drummer Truenoys. 'New' as in 'new', 'not new' as in 'he's been around the block a few times in previous lives, his tunes getting played by everyone from the Wax On posse to Osunlade and Laurent Garnier, just to name a few.

After a summer hiatus from releasing EPs, we are back in a big way.... Next up on the Artist series is the first American to release on our label, the all round nice guy and king of all things AV the one, the only, Bobby C Sound TV. Already getting support from the likes of Krafty Kuts (who listed Papa Grande in his top 10 tunes of 2012!!) you know this EP is gonna be the business... Are you ready for the funk

Made By Jaziah.. Again With Very Nice Eclectic house,with refreshing sounds!!

In a fit of tunnel vision Buckfast afficionado Marco Bernardi drives his hooptie off a cliff and slides underwater for a deep rolling mondo house trip that oozes sub bass and sneakiness in a weird paradox of uplift & despair, and doesn't come up for air until Tevo Howard adds some sunday morning percussive tea-bag flavor to it. Meanwhile on the Ocean floor that absolutely venomous J.T.C. remix wipes out everything and anything it comes across. A Leviathan!

A Big electro/ house slammer!! Brand new name on this label with nothing more than nice electro sounds and heavy beats!! Got to have this one!!
