rawax welcomes shift imprint label boss, angelo santos aka audiopath to the family! we will present you this talented producer from lisbon on our ten inch housewax - series with a fantastic 2 - tracker called -gimme that sweet-. worth to check!

counterweight welcomes to the label the rising berlin artist opål with this excellent 4-track full of techno ep... the title track, luminescence, is a rough and hard hitting 4/4 warehouse destroyer. -impala- reduces the tension and shows a more melodic side of the artist but still keeping his characteristic industrial touch. on the b side opål shows what is the definition of -driving- techno with -eclipse-, this is simply amazing. the last track is an absolutely outstanding remix by the italian artist pvs, who explores new atmospheric shapes and goes beyond simple 4/4 structures. pump up the volume, this is real shit!

ouch from a distance is the new label of former ostgut ton manager nick ho¨ppner. it s first release by desert sound colony has been very well received – opal sunn are a well seasoned hardware only live act very much in control of their repertoire, but also capable of captivating improvisations – opal sunn have got a recognizable sound driven by smart, often arpeggiated synth lines, on point drums and textures

top drawer batch of 7” from the soopastole edits stable of labels.

next up on peach discs is the debut 12inch from newcomer videopath. the a-side piles up the melodies over some box-banging drums, while the b-side goes full-on 90s with pumping organ riffs and wailing diva vocals. 2 jacking tracks for the clubs!

one carefully crafted floating tool to suspend the rat race, coming from the bucharest based duo live act soundopamine. moment ep is subtly combining warm house grooves with joyful & hypnotic minimal beats. let yourself be carried away with ease towards a sunny introspective of a soul mirror with a gentle emotion uplifter. take a moment for your inner self!

banoffee pies drop their annual record store day release with bprsd003. the a side brings re decoration from bristol local lord leopard with an edit on kadidiatou samakes - eyaye. a head nodding afro jam as spring sets upon us. smell the flowers. the flip sees an 11 minute hansel! edit of the nuyorican soul classic its alright, i feel it! killer dance floor track with it’s well known sing along vocal. music in my life has kept me me through. all of the changes, the world has put me through. its alright i feel it. support the music, support local artists, buy from your record stores. think outside the box. try something else. check a new sound. try a new party. go a different direction. drifting into oblivion, what to believe, where to read. 2018 is moving

transatlantic are back at it again with their latest offering featuring five raw cuts from europa. feel your pulse accelerate and strap in.

instrumental music is supposed to be asemantic and yet a rich language of rhetorical gestures has grown up around it. none of them may have a specific meaning but they easily lead the listener towards an emotion, a sensation, an embryonic story. does any of this mean that music is abstract? or does it, to the contrary, mean that music tells a story? there is no abstraction without a story. is there a story without an abstraction? the composition on this album, is it a radio play? tropa macaca = andré abel and joana da conceição check out their earlier albums, they’re just as great.

in 2016 simon pitt and alex kassian formed planet sundae recordings. opal sunn ii is their third release. part i was out july 2017 with andrew weatherall taking a massive shine to it, playing all 4 tracks at a gig in barcelona. it was championed also by massimiliano pagliara, of ostgut fame. opal sunn is live-performance duo al kassian & hiroaki oba. formed in 2015, the pair have recorded countless hardware-driven improvisational sessions, puzzled together to create abstract musical journeys. the aim is to transcend the improvisational magic of the studio jam and funnel it into the live performance. having played at rainbow disco club 2016 in japan & atlas electronic 2016 in morocco,the pair took both excited audiences by surprise with their heavily improvised live sessions. opal sun ii explores darker shades of dance music.

new ambient / krautrock / weirdo / cretin project by half member of the pilotwings from lyon : louis e bola, in collaboration with musicians geddes hadden, arthur tempo, akino karma, sound of duty free & pierre mortimer-dubation. a mix in between christian morin - aquarella and berlin school artist conrad schnitzler.

disco boogie woogie boogie

the 2nd propaganda album, originally released in 1985, now back on 180 gram vinyl with extensive 6 page 12 inch booklet included.

handle it right...

having cruised around labels such as la luna, tusk wax and most tellingly back to the balearics, maricopa has already left a trail of smooth-sailing breadcrumbs behind him, and now he drops anchor in a harbour which may yet prove to be his spiritual home. is it balearic? is a question that hardly needs to be asked when you re drifting out to sea on the blissful tones of benthos or reveling in the expressive ripples of deer, but it s safe to say these jams would go down smooth with a mediterranean sunset and an aperol spritz.

those who physically suffer from dopamine depletion seek ways to experience maximized pleasure. hong kongs hyper everything enfant terrible, s.y. delivers a much darker complex ep than his two previous offerings under a new alias, a creative therapy of sorts apparently dealing with substance abuse and unstable mental conditions which luckily for everyone translates into more leftfield dancefloor gold with the brilliantly nondescript $ lfo and weirdo power drive of the title track on a side, followed on the flip by a surprisingly beautiful ode to concrete music, and a deeply haunting field recording piece that closes a perfectly round ep... or does it? sleeve artwork by matt damhave

apparillo releases #01, 02 & 05 all bundled up for one special price!

europa picks up where nthng left off on transatlantic’s second outing. face to the angle grinder, destruction techno for the obliteration of the rave basement.

after 2 first eps in 2016 on voxnox & arts digital, the young berliner talent opål comes back on the new swiss imprint bipolar disorder. the silem ep demonstrates opål’s ease to encompass both energetic, raving, or deeper techno style.
the main title “silem” takes the listener right away through a melodic journey aiming to warm dancefloors, followed by the dubbier, more classic/chilled “capillaries”. “cadmium” gives acceleration again on the b side with its stomping bass, before to close with “solar”. never forcing the audience, opål cares for details and atmospheres. his ability to experiment and blend genres insures him a unique signature in a driven, puristic, dub, leaning toward hypnotic style.

the man, the myth, the legend that is danny soopasoul bennett has returned to spread the good word of funk once again. pushin weight is the storming new instrumental track from our man soopasoul and as usual it doesn t disappoint. rambunctious sax lines and soaking wet wah wah chords ride over the tight drums and grooving congas. there s more breaks than a fat man running a marathon with this floor filler and more exciting still, it s coming out on 7- vinyl for your listening pleasure. the aptly titled b-side and perfect foil to this funky monster is his classic track â&#128,&#147, the fan favourite: brand nu which has had a cheeky little 7- rework to make it, wellâ&#128,¦brand new.

maricopa makes the smoothest summer tunes in the world. on his explorer ep, the second in cosmic pint keg series, maricopa makes no exceptions. a journey through mediterranean landscapes and across tops of mountains in the midday heat to the refreshing sea breeze on a midnight beach. it s a thing of beauty some are directed at the dance floor some almost chilled to horizontal.

the cosmic pint glass keg series continues its secret vinyl only 10&#8243,,,,, addition, pressed to 200 copies. this time daniel t supplies the dancefloor fun times by adding some tropical funk to maricopa s ascent and turning it into some mutant disco party jam. on the flip miskotom adds a hefty dollop of atmosphere to the already atmospheric volcanic glass to provide a stunningly laid back finish. get these while they re hot!

with the warmth of spring yet to bloom in full, the cold distant sun still reaches planet sundae, casting shadows upon tomorrow. as al kassian s encrusted diamonds on jupiter is still in orbit from last year, planet sundae takes a step into 2017 with a debut release from a far eastern constellation. we are proud to present you, dear reader, with the first part of a double dipped ep by opal sunn. these selected works by hiroaki oba and al kassian were recorded between 2015-16 in berlin, aimed squarely at that rift between the stark light of the everyday and the flurry of the dance floor.

in der zugegebenermaßen noch nicht allzu langen, dafür aber umso vielfältigeren und soundtechnisch höchst ansprechenden geschichte von glitterbeat gab es bislang nur eine einzige 12”. mit dem vinyl “el leopardo / el acontista” erscheint jetzt die zweite. die zweisong-schönheit von el leopardo gefiel dem label aus beverungen so gut, dass man sofort die chance ergriff, die platte herauszubringen. hinter dem projekt stehen dani boom von systema solar und felipe alvarez, kopf des in bogota ansässigen kultlabels polen records. auf “el leopardo / el acontista” mixen die beiden urbane dub-texturen mit reduzierter kolumbianischer percussion, spoken-word-beiträgen und einem tiefen, hypnotischen bass.

nice price deal !!! ultraphat twisted / spooky electronic techhouse

nice price deal !!! superb vinyl album release!! finest electronic techhouse !! the sound is very upfront

laurent garnier support !! announcing the first release by shift imprint, “hynek’s scale”! what magic results if we merge the spirits of detroit, chicago, amsterdam and lisbon, all in the same record? hynek’s scale is a smoking’ audiopath collaboration with ex parliament/funkadelic member jerrald james aka jerry the cat, who, besides being an amazing percussionist and great vocalist, is also a serious old school dj and producer with collabs with names like derrick may, theo parrish and moodymann.

coloured vinyl lp, ltd to 180 copies

politics of dancing records first various artists sampler brings together five great producers who always delivers quality house music. lopaskis common grounds is a very classy floor filler, heavy on rhythm and atmospheres with the perfect breakdown. rhythm&soul s late night city is a deep spacy house track with a powerful bassline and heady vocals.reda dare s woman in gold is a great deep house groover with a chunky bassline and sweet tasting stabs. and carlos sanchez & alex kaddours caramba is a late night break beat stomper with a groovy acid bassline and soft atmospheres that will blow dancers mind.

step forward andré abel and joana da conceição, the portuguese duo behind the long-running experimental act tropa macaca who had a brush with the alt-mainstream a few years ago in the shape of the ectoplasma single for daniel lopatin’s software label. seemingly absent since their 2013 lp, praga de urubu só pega em cavalo magro, abel and da conceição have been coaxed into appearing on the trilogy tapes. given the tone of vida, it should come as no surprise that tropa macaca are also set to perform at the upcoming meakusma festival

nice house tunes

vinyl only, 180g ! for its third release forbidden behaviours is hosting enzo pietropaolo with his all over again ep which represents the return of the berlin based dj to music production after a decade long hiatus. the vinyl only release features three versatile minimal tracks with a funky touch and a heavy use of sampling, reconnecting the artist to his hip-hop skillset and previous works. the ep also includes a jazzy remix of the title track all over again by label onwer gabriele carasco.

more rough analogue business from switzerland. early support from legowelt.

superb throwback electro sounds of the early noughties on offer here from swiss artist elektrobopacheck, debuting via his self affirming synthesizer music laboratory. this is quite reminiscent of stuff on vitalic s seminal citizen records imprint a while back. highlights being atlantic intertravel and kubusmann calculates which sound similar to the majestic modular tones of japanese telecom or the late night electro funk groove of ride on the waves. sure, he s not trying to re invent the wheel here, but it s all good!

the inaugural release from edible comes from lord leopard. direct from his studio, somewhere in the depths of rural cornwall, he brings some serious heat to the first release. mark of passion is a stellar slice of face melting, twisted tech-funk whilst fantastically well is a jazz heavy slugger, the good lord gets deep into the groove, flipping vocal samples and insane breakdowns for a very individual and unique sounding cut.

maricopa returns to back to the balearics to complete his stunning opus, pastel love. and he continues where he left off building deeply textured songs packed full of simple melodies that really shine. his music opts for subtle feelings and passing vibes over the more obvious structures of dance music. the release of part one led to a number of comparisons with the early work of aphex twin as well as more contemporary producers such as four tet. such comparisons dont come lightly, but pastel love demonstrates that a rare musical talent has arrived. the release again has beautiful printed covers and looks as good as it sounds. viva maricopa!

limited 10 inch, hypnotic house.

hailing from sydney, australia, lancelot is the latest in a line of talented musicians to join the anjunadeep roster. his debut release on the label, givin it up / make ends meet set the blogosphere alight and has been supported by everyone from t. williams and danny howard to tensnake and the magician.

cabanne and arks siamese duo turns into a schizophrenic solo as they combine their 5 inches each into minidisc ep. a limited special 10 inches minibar, made of a 100percent pure subtle madness that will make you enjoy the ride, from the basement to the attic. more than 10 years after their first release, the legendary and unobtainable perlon 25, the copacabannark train is back on tracks to bring you to the heavenish hell you deserve!

what a package we have here! after success of welcome to my house (qmt044), lemy leopard come back on qalomota with another funky ep. four brilliants groovy tracks in pure moodymann style. reserve your copies now!

nice price deal !!! sects third and final sampler for the >its all for you< compilation ends on a bittersweet note, seeing the last release from sect favourite grovskopa, who has decided to retire following the closest of near death experiences. the a-side features lags remix of his sect classic >atopic<, reworking the lurching bass and broken-beat rhythms of the original into a hypnotic number with a fractured synth melody. the b-side sees >62:02<, a brittle yet powerful track with churning bass which recalls drexciyas classically hard edged approach, combined with hazy orchestral sweeps - a fitting swansong for a great producer.

after their superb release last year with >dinosaurs<, that came backed with two heavy paul woolford mixes, south german stars alex flatner & lopazz return to poker flat with three new essential cuts. >this< may sound like a curious title, yet the addictive low-slung, electronic funk within will have you chanting >i just wanna love you baby…< in no time! smooth, slinky production comes hand in hand with producers as experienced as this pair! the mysterious future-disco-funk magic of >hapbee< keeps the party stomping as a whole host of vintage gear flavours this cosmic beatdown. rolling and driving forward with relaxed, summery intent it is a seriously positive tune for those smiling, warm feeling moments. >its< offers a similarly challenging title but musically there is no messing around, with a shaking, simmering slice of modern funk characterised by tonal synth play, percussive splashes and echoed vocal madness - all dripping with funk!

180 gr pressing, with all propaganda 80s classic

solamente is back with their strictly vinyl only series. this time with lopazz and zarook (get physical, shaker plates, pokerflat, circle) meeting labelhead sierra. 2 jacking & chicago-influenced originals with a superb shooshine remix. we love vinyl
