10th release on Delaphine. F0r th3 90'5 g4m3r5 8-)

Albion Records drops its first record of the year and it's to make it's 7 years... and a bit anniversary. Celebrating with a various artists release, it's a 8-track double EP and it does not disappoint.

Moscow based Engineer is back with 4th release. The A1 Is a powerful minimalistic bomb by Engineer founder Wyro and Mobile Soul System, which is followed with a marvelous remix by the Romanian young star, Mihai Pol. On the B side there is a vibrant and rolling dance floor ready weapon by Farid Odilbekov plus a hypnotic groovy tool by the russian talent, Alfij.

Perfect Timing' is the title of Dragosh's new release. The four tracker features three Dragosh originals and a remix from Michael McLardy and Dudley Strangeways. The second release from the Romanian producer this year, it shows his flying form and commitment to continue doing what he loves.

The EP opens with 'Josum'. With a stripped, crunching groove, a clipping synth bass soon joins in. Filled with small noises, 'Josum' invades your headspace and pushes your head down, your body up. A minimal, techy affair, it will not let you rest with its revolving bass and invasive, unsteady beat. The remix reels in the strangeness a bit while maintaining the minimal, never-standing-still feel to the original. Computer bleeps join the tunnelling groove, delivering a remix that it is more dance friendly but remains in the realm of heady weirdness.

Next up is 'Perfect Timing', the title track. Beginning with a cleaner cut beat than 'Josum', 'Perfect Timing' still maintains the feel of the EP with a rattling percussive beat before hitting you with a deep, thunderous bass. With haunting synths far in the background, the track keeps you guessing as to what is coming next. 'Bad Idea' closes out the EP in a decidedly more subdued fashion. Still in keeping with the deep, heady feel of the other track, it does so in a more low-key and laid back fashion. With a retro drum-machine led rhythm and a tractor beam for a bass, 'Bad Idea' is perfect for a darkened, end-of-the-night session.

Detroit label My Baby focusses on letting underground local talent shine, and that is the case with the second EP, a various artists affair featuring label boss Mister Joshooa, plus Remote Viewing Party and Tammy Pickle with a remix from My Baby.
The acts featured on this release are all residents of the famous TV Lounge/TV Bar venue in Detroit. The 12" includes Eddie C along with My Baby boss and TV Bar booker Mister Joshooa-who work together here as Tammy Pickle-plus Rickers, who is one half of ATAXIA, and How to Kill Detroit co-founders Remote Viewing Party, while Rickers and Joshooa also link as My Baby to remix one of the tracks.
First up are Remote Viewing Party with the superb '410'. It's five bumping minutes of silvery tech with whirring machines and gurgling synths all weaving around well programmed and punchy drums. Sure to infect real energy and freakiness into any club set.
Mister Joshooa makes his first appearance with the alluring 'Alright Fine', a slow and absorbing track of gloopy bass, percolating drums and unsettling vocals. Subtle acid lines and prickly hi hats all make this one really jump out of the speakers.
Next up, Mister Joshooa links with Rickers for a standout remix of '410' that is even more physical and driving. The metallic groove is run through with alien sounds, shooting synths and ghoulish voices that are filled with paranoia and will make a great atmosphere in the club.
Joshooa and downtempo disco don Eddie C then collaborate as Tammy Pickle for 'Indifference,' which is a perfectly slow and sensuous number with elastic synths and bass. Crisp hits drive it along and encourage you to sink deep into the groove.
This record is jam packed with talent and original ideas, and one that marks out this label as one to watch.

Reissue (originally released 1981 on SKY records). Cold, concise analogue synthesizer instrumentals – on his secondalbum Serge Blenner remained true to his style, albeit shifting course slightly towards pop territory. The juxtaposition of dark harmonies and pop structures is what makes this album so appealing. In places, it feels like a blueprint for early Depeche Mode.

Acid Pauli is back with another three-track EP on the label he co-manages with friend and collaborator Nico Stojan. This EP, self-effacingly titled 'Had to get rid of some Shit', showcases Martin Gretschmann’s dancefloor prowess yet again. 'Dancing In The Trunk' is a hyped-up loopy banger - minimal in instrumentation but fully psychedelic in execution. 'Goran Utan' has a deeper, darker edge, with a tension that will tighten the grip on many dancefloors. 'Shakmat, but happy' appears in 'Pauli's Psychedelic Breakfast Take 9' and is a slow-building, loop-based groover, eventually opening up to reveal tinges of acid.

Motordiscs is a various artists record serie created by the people behind Garage. The parisian club was shut down during summer 2018 but its spirit continues with Motordiscs: Putting artists together and promoting independant electronic music has always been the credo and is now continuing on records.

Motordisc 1 features tracks from Kasper Bjørke, Khidja, Curses and Zombies In Miami

KUSI Records proudly presents Livio & Roby on their 7th release. For the first time we skipped the remix on this one because the Romanian DJ Team delivers two dope originals you definitely shouldn't miss.

After a sold-out release on Courtesy of Balance which gained huge support and plays from some key DJs, Nat Wendell returns to his own imprint with another dancefloor heavy, 3track EP. "Reality" kicks of the 3 track EP with some pulsating stabs, mixed with trippy underlays over a swingy stripped back Deep House rhythm. Flip the record and you're presented with a bouncy, yet dubby adventure "Can't Stop". The title track "Renditions" doesn't let up with any of the deep energetic tones set. Here Nat teases out a deeper yet up tempo way to end the release.

On the a side we get a nice set of percussions. Pads and spacey sounds are coming along to finish the arrangement. The great rough sounding chord coming in the second half of the second minute seems to become stronger as the track evolves.

The b side holds a strong dubby ride, fine chords being triggered alongside the track at the right moments. The smooth bass sticks all the elements into the final mix. Near the end some field recordings made in Paris can be heard before the bassline switches and the track ends.

180g vinyl only

Acmé's little brother Third Stream presents a new chapter introducing the very first artists to sign/make their stamp apart of CEO Alex Font who signed the first and second releases.

We are very proud of introducing Incolor and Olivian Nour to our family, with no doubt two of the rising stars of the bouyant romanian minimal-house scene.

Three groover and killer tracks that cover the entire spectrum that goes between house, minimal and techno.

Strictly only vinyl release with JUST 200 copies.

After a string of solid releases in recent years, Casey Spillman has decided to launch his very own record label - Temperature.

The imprint kicks off with this 2 track EP featuring the eagerly anticipated track ‘Slow Down’ on the F° Side, meanwhile the C° Side sets a cooler tone with a track entitled ‘Concrete Jungle’.

For the second release we squeeze the lemon with Mamosato, an Italian trio composed by Paolo Macri, Cristian Sarde and Emanuele Montalto, and characterized by a sound born from house and evolves to his different shades.

Elusive Records head honcho Slavaki and label’s mainstay Yapacc join forces for this raunchy tripped out foray into all things dub and minimal. Wax #32 opens with Yapacc’s infections workout - ‘Mighty Mights’. The track juggles the solid stripped-down minimal rhythms soaked in old-school classic feel with Fadila’s vocal provocation that jolts listeners into hovering over a black hole without ever quite going under. Flip over and find the title track of the EP aka Slavaki’s excursion into multi-layered land of experimentation. ‘Laissez Faire’ is a dreamlike tapestry knitted of grovelling bass and myriad of original never before heard tweaks and bleeps. EP closes with ‘Fancy’ a sound embodiment of Alchemist’s Gold. Fusion of dub powder and star dust the wonky drum bubbles and alien glitches take you on a journey into entirely new listening dimensions. A trip we guarantee you will not regret!

Pressed on a 180g vinyl and strictly limited to 100 copies this is the guys’ almost private ‘thank you note’ to their avid fans and collectors alike. Made with love and only available in few handpicked shops this is more of an art piece etching than a mass-produced plastic slab. Treat yourself but be
quick!

Future second-hand 5€ bin EP by swedish born Adam Strömstedt who resides in Sydney, Australia. Very much a pleasure. Adam has been turning heads in Scandinavia and beyond since 2007 from the launch of the Red Balloon summer parties in Stockholm and his strong affiliation with Junk Yard Connections and Banoffee Pies Records, his own Lyssna Records and more recently Stockholm based Bossmusik and Brisbane label Buxton Records.

Default Records has returned with its second release after compiling a roster of artists who are committed to establishing presence in the scene by pushing boundaries and pursuing excellence. Camelia starts us off on the A side with *Transferring*, which presents itself in a light and airy atmosphere. Its playful percussive notes are juxtaposed against its hypnotic groove making for a warm and easy listen. Macarie follows with *Flu*, a vibrant and dance-inducing sludge of gritty, piercing elements that seamlessly blooms into an emotional melody that is driven by its tantalizing rhythm. Label boss Exander shows the heavier side of his creative spectrum on the B side with *Odyssey*. The fullness of this cut accompanied by its intriguing and directive vocal is only enhanced by its delicate features and attention to detail. Closing out the compilation is Lulla's *Distort Time* which reveals all its insides with a symphony of glitchy bleeps and blops all reinforced by a cadence of drums and groove that stirs it into an electric soup.

No Rush label founder Simone Adinolfi inaugurates the first release with a 3 tracker, including two tracks from himself and one remix from Sublee.

Road To Rome opens with crunchy sharp drums, a groovy bass line and melodic elements in a beautiful blend of micro-house.
Hide And Seek gives the EP a darker taste with punchy kicks, stripped back drums and trippy melodies, keeping the tension up before the romanian Sublee closes the EP with a superb minimalistic groove, composed by organic percussion arrangements, airy pads and atmospherics texture that guide the production through twelve minutes of deep celestial essence.

Montreal / Paris record label Cosmic Tones is back for its sophomore release. CT002 is a Various Artists EP showcasing the work of six talented producers from the Canadian underground.
URA-DUST – Dream
CT002 opens with this downtempo collaboration by URA from Vancouver and Dust-e-1 from Montreal. Hazy and ethereal, the tune is driven by a broken beat, ecstatic melodies, angelic choir stabs, and lush pads. There are elegant cosmic vibes on this dreamy cut, somewhere between IDM, celestial dub and forward-thinking Balearic.
M Salaciak – Degra’s Vision
The cosmic voyage carries on with this catchy and starry-eyed tune by M Salaciak of Montreal. Here, the interplay between 303 and 808 creates a vibe both heavenly and sensual, full of understated lysergic euphoria and with the compelling syncopation of a bona fide electro beat, reminiscent of Mid West electro’s trippier excursions.
Priori – Glide
With a shuffling 909, a 808 cowbell, miscellaneous percussion, oceanic sounds, deep pads, brilliant use of space and gliding melodies, this cut by Montreal-based artist Priori is a nod to the golden age of IDM and those compilations on Warp. But there’s a twist that comes through the track’s warmth and its broken beat: this isn’t techno, nor is it purely electro, but something wonderfully unique.
Bunzinelli – Hyperloop
A bouncy beat sets things in motion on this mid-tempo tune from London-born and Montreal-based artist Bunzinelli. Analog synths, airy pads, hard-hitting drums and what can only be described as a space didgeridoo coalesce gloriously. It’s an ecstatic tune with both aural fractals for your mind and your feet.
Dust-e-1 – Live By The Leaf
Behind this name is a Montreal fixture behind the Little Tape project (a mix series, a web radio show and occasional events). With a focus on generous breakbeats and innocent melodies, there is an undeniable sun-drenched atmosphere, perhaps of a Balearic persuasion, on this tune. In any case, it’s the sort of track that instantly puts a smile on any dancefloor.
R Weng – Sound Of The Breeze
Closing the EP is this plodding downtempo tune that sounds like a lost bedroom recording from the UK’s ambient house era, where a synthetic rhythm section and precious melodies are blended with dreamy guitar licks. The result is a soothing tune that gently caresses its listener like a summer’s breeze.

Ander B's music is increasingly abstract, profound and packed with rhythmic trances.

The sounds he creates are based on classic house, which he melds with thick layers of Detroit and Chicago House. 'The Black Sun' is his second 12" for Czech label Beef Records, following the Delano Smith + Petre Inspirescu supported 'Outta Space' EP in 2016.
On the flip side we have remix by Lee Renacre aka 100HZ (Oblong, Bosconi).

Dj Windows XP, Tensnake, Jacques Renault, Sascha Funke, Moskalus, Danny Tenaglia

Finally, Sound Of Vast's first release in 2016. Good news for many people as it the initial release of "Higher" sold way too fast. There's been some a huge deman for us to bring it back - so we decided to repress it again, this time with a twist... Soichi Terada Remix! With this re-issued version of EP, we show the identity of the "Unknown Artist", as someone already guessed he is the The People In Fog aka DJ Sodeyama, who released "Deep EP" in 2014 on Sound Of Vast. By The People In Fog project - he shows his 90s old school house side which he raised with. As this release containing not only the original version of 'Higher', but also includes melodic and dreamy remix made by the Japanese house renaissance "Soichi Terada", and "Dub Mix" from The People In Fog with a bit modern groove, this EP can be satisfied any kind of mood on the dance floor. The powerful of vocal from an killer 90s tune, and well-crafted beat production from each legendary house artists, this EP definitely has the energy to bring people in the higher lever of dance.

David Mayer returns to Ouie following his well received The Call EP from 2018 and The Circle recently released on the new sublabel Ouïe Circle.
Though being born in south Germany, Mayer grew up between Norway and Lanzarote, perhaps a clue to his expansive and border-less sound.
Here he brings three new tracks to the label from Acid Pauli and Nico Stojan. Title track Skanda is a psychedelic trip through firing percussive elements, wonky synths, distorted vocals and an unstoppable groove.
Snake Dance has a similarly unhinged feel, building around a one note bassline and crisp, rolling drums before heading to the stratosphere with sparkling arpeggios.
On the B-side, there’s the vinyl exclusive Ouroboros Track - an 8 minute odyssey into Mayer’s interest in hypnotic percussion and psychedelic track structures.

The Modeight label catalog contains the works of such artists as Silat Beksi, RQZ, Durrred, Dragutesku, Olivian Nour, University Of Nowhere, Svet. These records are not collecting dust on the shelves of private collectors - instead, they are actively played by DJs. With support from the leading Romanian artists, the label's tracks were broken in on the dancefloors of the Sunwaves festival. The fifth release of the label is brought to you by Amin Ravelle and Virkut, who joined forces under the name Methylat. These highly effective groovy and minimalistic tracks are available only on vinyl.

Sanguina Records is back with his newest imprint: Sanguina Black Series.
For the first release we have an EP from labelhead Michel Degen with 4 original tracks.
Different color, same style, same rules.
Limited Copies, vinyl only, hand drawn, no repress.

unique trax 003 is in charge of an artist who does not need introduction, the Russian tripmastaz gives us two strong pieces for the dance floor plus a remix with housy sensations by ariel rodz.

With credits on the likes of Bass Culture, Cocoon, Cadenza, Cocoon and Yoyaku in his locker, Russian DJ/producer Tripmastaz is about to enter the next phase in his much-respected career thanks to a recent move to Berlin. Currently working in the studio with Ricardo Villalobos, he has also released a string of collaborations alongside DJ Sneak on the likes of Kwench, Rawthentic and Hot Trax. Now, he’s taken the collab process one step further, siding up here with Alexkid, Cesar Merveille and Howl Ensemble for the debut release on his appropriately named call_lab label. Featuring handmade artwork by St.Petersburg based graphic artist mojo_monsta, it’s another example of the Plant 74 label owner’s consistent penchant for high class house and techno.



Up first is Tripmastaz’s collab with Alexkid, ‘Catch 33’. Alexkid is another producer who’s enjoyed a great run of form, and on this one both musicians triumph courtesy of an original cut that’s notable for its weighty, dubby vibes and repetitive flair. A groaning, atmosphere-heavy cut, it gets us underway with some distinction.



Up next is ‘Worship’, which this time around sees Tripmastaz team up with sometime Cadenza man, Cesare Merveille. A track that’s definitely been made with early morning sessions in mind, this one calls on the spirit of Detroit in no uncertain fashion. Banging but with a soft, deep and meandering current at its core, it’s a fantastic example of how to bridge contrasting sounds.



The last of the tracks on show is ‘Mayday’, which this time around sees Tripmastaz showcase his more gritty side alongside Howl Ensemble. A trippy, whimsical cut that’s every bit as colourful as the day its named after, it closes the release with a dexterous skill that’s abundant throughout. With releases forthcoming on Bass Culture, Berg Audio, Cuttin Headz and Ovum, 2019 looks set to be a pivotal year for Tripmastaz.



On the release, Tripmastaz says: “For years I’ve been so concentrated on my own music, but over the last few years I have embraced the collaboration process with friends and musicians I love and respect. Call_lab01 is just the beginning!”
