It s time for our 20th release on Float Records. And who's better to celebrate this with than Sleeparchive.
There is enough brilliance to choose from, but it all starts with 15 minutes of superiority on the 5x3 loop tracks on the A-side with that typical Sleeparchive sound. All containing disturbing drums followed by upperclass sequences which keeps on going.

The B-side starts with title track Letter of Resignation. Is this a clue from Sleeparchive The future will tell. What we do know is that it continues where the A-side stopped. Again heavy hitting drums followed by a frisk sequence. He continues this formula on the 2nd track called Solitary Drinker. And above all we give you a small bonus with 2 locked groove presents: Sleep Cycle 17 & 18.

We had a great start with his remix for our previous release. Now, for our second vinyl, incolor delivered us 2 groovy minimalistic tracks, as he had lately got used to delighting us.

DJ and producer Orlando Voorn has delivered the release of his club-ready EP, 'Positive Vibes', set to drop on NICEPEOPLE.

Opening the release with the EP-titled 'Positive Vibes', a slick record filled with strong tribal elements, the track is followed by 'One Day', an infectious after-hours rumbler. With Voorn also crafting a warm, driven mix of 'Matta', the EP is rounded off by 'Ghetto Techno', a synth-led track filled with the producer's rhythmic tones.

A slick display of the Dutchman's prowess in the studio, the new 4-track Positive Vibes EP is set for release on Wednesday 10th April via NICEPEOPLE.

To celebrate the launch of the enigmatic Dutch label, VDK, we present the debut release on their catalogue. VDK is all about letting the music do the talking, without any of the expectation associated with divulging an artist’s name and therefore knowledge of their past productions, therefore each artist remains anonymous.

We start proceedings with 001, a hypnotic journey with a healthy dose of retro-infused organ riffing that glistens over the top of a garage house beat, punctuated with hypnotic flute sounds and delirious vocal samples.

002 features fizzing top end percussion that carries the warping synth stabs throughout the mix. Distant chatter and indistinct snippets of heavily treated spoken snippets ebb and flow around the other elements of the track making for hazy evening atmospherics.

On the flip and closing out the collection is the B-side, 003. A progressive peak-timer, the percussion underpins a selection of discombobulating vocal arrangements that pan around to dizzying effect. Twinkling synth work dances around the upper end of the mix for the ideal set-builder.

Keep your ears out for more exciting VDK releases heading to your record bag soon…

Lied's debut release brings Robert's "Way of Being" double EP front center stage with a mixed bag of goodies for assorted times.
Beginning with "Skyhaze", which will surely trigger memories of Santana "Soul Sacrifice" at Woodstock 69, with bass guitar and solo to boot, driving through to "Roots", a roboticized peak time mellow-drama. The more after hours friendly "Knock" occupies the back end of the B side with acidic influences entangled with balearic harmonies and silvery grained out melodies.

"Blue Devils" toes the line of it's predecessor with a more bass driven narrative while "Zero Zero" slips into a more atmospheric disguise, finally bringing it home with a "Sneak Peak" into the more minimalistic and syncopated side of Robert, suited best for early hours of the night.

Vinyl only, just a taste of what's to come.

Bondage Music label-founders Pornbugs return to the imprint this September with their 'Pacho' EP, backed with remixes from Pablo Bolivar and Phillipp Gonzales.

Leipzig/Berlin based duo Pornbugs make a welcome return to their own label here with two new original cuts, 'Pacho' opens the package with stripped-back drums, a bulbous bass line and choppy piano chords running alongside a bubbling arpeggio lead and tension building stab sequences. Pablo Bolivar's 'Rawmake' of 'Pacho' follows, edging things into deeper territory with dropped tempo dusty drums, airy pads and an amalgamation of wandering, resonant synth lines.

The second half of the release, pencilled for release as vinyl only features another original from Pornbugs, entitled 'Larica' and featuring a similar aesthetic to the lead with fluttering dubby chords, a refined drum groove and unfolding atmospherics carrying the groove before label regular Phillipp Gonzales turns in his remix to complete the package, taking things in a more raw direction with heavily swung crunchy drums, pulsating filtered stabs and billowing vocal murmurs.

The second release of the relatively newborn, Berlin-based Italian label Autarchy Records offers yet another various artists release, as for the first output, the label gives light to Autre and D Roots - both producers are near to the label - and invites relevant figures of the scene to reinterpret the original tracks, specifically Hiver and Juju & Jordash.

AU002 starts with a banging tune by Autre, a slow crescendo that turns right into an emotional synth parade - Autre is a Berlin-based Italian house DJ/producer, who recently released on XDB's Metrolux. Dekmantel affiliates Juju & Jordash rethink the 'Prima' track, revisiting Autre's dreamy concept adding some industrial-ish elements.

A whole different scenario appears when you flip the record on the B-side. Deep house Italian rising talent D_Roots drops a nostalgic flavour with the house-oriented 'ASMR', anticipating a solid, colourful closure of the EP which see Hiver's rework of the track, a yardstick that rounds things off just to the beginning of the A-side.

Hand Stamped, Vinyl Only! The fourth Coffee Pot release shows the different sides of the italian duo, from the A-side groover 'Spread The Message', to the trippy 'Melody Drone', to the deep hypnotic 'Nuevaera'.

Emerging Italian label Castenea Records has been on a rich vein of form of late. Spurred on by quality signings a la Pressure Point, TC80 and OdD Music, they've quickly won the hearts and minds of numerous similarly-inclined artists. Their latest is a case in point. Coming at us from Modbox aka Patrizio Restelli, it features three originals from the man in question as well as a remix from one of minimal techno's most exciting new acts, the inimitable Topper.
Kicking off the sounds of 'The Science Behind First Impression' EP is 'Halo Effect'. A heads-down, zippy track that conjures up images of a hazy Villalobos and Zip after-hours session, it's made up of but a few parts but still manages to force a distinct

impression. An auspicious beginning, it wonderfully sets the mood for Topper's reinterpretation. Imbued with slightly more colour than its predecessor, its gradually warmer remix acts as the perfect foil to the sounds of the original.

The B side gets underway soon after with 'First Impression'. A jazzy number that's indicative of the producer at his playful best, it's full to the brim with smile-inducing tones and is sure to work a treat wherever it's let out of the bag. Culminating the release is the sounds of 'Jam Confidence'. A more stringent affair that sticks to an eerie script, it sees us out the door with some panache. An EP that's sure to force an impression, that's for sure.

Kiev based "vinyl only" label Nastroy present its 1st release based on a concept Modern Nostalgy. Deep & intelligent sounds from MicroHouse to Minimal Techno.

London based label and party Butter Side Up follow-up a sold out debut release from Christian Jay with another helping of atmospheric house music, this time from Leeds based rising star Midge Thompson. The long time BSU associate serves up three tracks that are complemented with a rare remix from the legendary Titonton Duvante.

Opener 'Destination 2242' is a slick and spaced out broken beat groover. Sci-fi motifs wither next to a sprinkling of garage percussion and rubbery drum programming is brilliantly loose and body popping. 'Delta' gets even deeper, with skeletal drums knocking out an infectious late-night rhythm while dreamy pads flesh things out. Spacecrafts drift in the background to add some cinematic stylings and make it perfect for the more close-knit dance floors.

On the flip, 'Beeston Lights' picks up the pace with perfectly rolling kicks pulling you in as keys twinkle up top like a distant metropolis at night. It's smooth and breezy house music to carry you away on a blissful vibe. Remixing is Titonton Duvante, a long time influence on the Butter Side Up crew and a cult figure in heady house circles thanks to definitive work on his own Residual Recordings, Mosaic and many others. His chunky take on techno is hard to beat, as proven here with a remix that re-works the drums into busy, restless things that work the feet while the Americans's typically ethereal pads bring real depth.
