steve bug drops a new outstanding 12inch on his own highly prolific poker flat recordings. those grooves is the perfect primer for his upcoming album (due out in autumn 2012), and sees the man in fine form - masterfully in control of his sound and producing tracks with a depth of dancefloor knowledge most other producers would die for. those grooves, the lead track locks into its exquisitely crafted groove early on, holding a taut balance between its individual elements. mid way through its 10 minutes, bug drops the tempo and lets the groove breath, before bringing it all back home - an audacious late night club weapon. the flip side is no less dramatic – tell me why creeps up, evolving slowing but surely – before an edgy, freaked out bass line drops over the crisp drums. a true peak time burner with enough energy and tension to smash any floor.

early support by adam x, kyle geiger, jonas kopp, and, arnaud le texier, freddy k. resiliens recordings is not only a simply independent record label but it presents itself as a project much more detailed and complex. it wants to be an idea, an impulse: the paradigm of artistic, visual and sound contemporaneity. the purpose of the group is to reinvent, assimilate and re rework the contemporaneity according to an independent and multifaceted artistic sensibility. according to its intrinsic meaning, resiliens was created with the intention of creating a new way of thinking and making art, able to react to external influences of modernity, transforming it without getting stunned. the genesis of a movement that embraces every artistic aspect, in a profound synergic interaction and collaboration between heterogeneous parts whose point of arrival is a complete artistic experience, in its deepest sense. the final goal of resiliens is therefore change the existing schemes, through clear and obvious messages around the entire artistic path: from production to exposure.

fur the texan, born bryce isbell, extracts minutiae with precision. his compositions, while airily sparse, are saturated with details plucked from broad of landscapes, whether they resemble the texan prairie or the expanses of industrial germany. isbells composite micro-samples are infinitesimal, soaked in breathless allusion and divorced from their context. the crisp, insistently percussive arrangement oscillates like metal shavings manipulated by an unseen magnet. fur has untraditionally tapped into a eu techno mind-meld, a berlin thought-stream. after his early work with neon indian’s alan palomo as ghost hustler, isbell dove deep into minimal sounds that transported listeners closer to inner city detroit than the mid-west. unos first fur ep cocoon follows several years of isbell silence. after a notable debut with lefse, fur submerged below a sea of techno and came up with a deep analog style that has acquired fans in fred p and firecracker records with twisting house like >knots<. a second part in the fur saga on the way, uno has faith this young westerner will be putting a big texan stamp on the house scene to come.

so what is after the void ... we bang the bomb of course with a lady in a thong surrounded by snakes and hand grenades, obvious really! having been away for some time it appears that a light sounds dark spring is in the air. en route to their next destination (rumoured to be a dark subterranean world full of nasty mutants danger electrified tracks out this summer) with arms out the window and the mothership roof down, its full steam ahead and proper european dance music time. not really train spotting as before although a couple are a bit off piste like maltas very own ian dury by the name of iain richardson rapping about sitting on a green bus! much more like it however are classic italo covers of big in japan, gloria, a wonderful new wave version of falcos euro smash der kommissar and the thoughts massive german hit wait a long time sounding like some long lost talk talk record. light sounds dark do some minor tweaking (going for that natural look) to big beast anthems axodrys you and colme 111s you take me high (early euro take on chicago) and for lovers of something a bit more funky theres some groovy goings on from kraut funksters epsilon urging people to leave the city which might not be a bad idea if the water runs out.

transparent vinyl pressing. early support from manik, martin landsky, anja schneider, m.a.n.d.y, gorge, danny howells, maceo plex, x-press 2, paul lorraine, terence:terry, droog, laura jones, enzo siragusa, layo & bushwacker, shinedoe, huxley, mr g, dusky, brothers vibe, leon, terry francis, geddes, claire ripley, carlo lio plus many more.

ok, to call this album long awaited or highly anticipated would be a non sequitur. what lies here before you is sculpted out of the blood and tears of 5 years of life, and all the dreams, imagination, tristesse and longing that goes along with it. the name orgue electronique shouldnt be new to you, cause it isnt. for over a decade it has been lurking in the periphery of house music - forever too early or too late for the trend, be it as a solo artist or working alongside legowelt. but it seems the apotheosis is finally here, in the form of this mesmerizing double album: wholly matured and further enhanced by collaborations with luminaries like robert owens, alden tyrell and cult hero fre2k. but to just dismiss this as a retro house record would be to sell it short in a big way. sure it was influenced by the usual bunch of pioneers and icons, but this is not an epigone, this is music that is. its warm and generous, made up of real emotions, of moments frozen in time and of the impassioned cries of a soul on the run. thats right, this aint no hipster shit dime-a-dozen facebook house gonzales! to finally let it go after so many years is - for all the parties involved - a strange yet exciting moment, not unlike the birth of an elephant baby. out of a human female

alden tyrell hooked up with mike dunn for some new work!. a golden combination which already worked out great as we learned from the heavy remix tyrell did for the murphy jax & mike dunn collaboration (its the music - cat# cjfd06). tyrell always jamming and playing around with his synths had some tracks inspired by early mike dunn songs. so the obvious happened ... the hooked up for some appropiate vocals and here it is ... touch the sky! a peak time acid monster with mikes vocal chant in the style of his classic md3 projects. gerd is on remix duty here and delivers a killer remix with a more traditional chicago groove and build up. clone head honcho serge had some studio time with tyrell for a dub mix. the serge & tyrell dub mix turned out a bit wild and became a classic piece of piano and dx bass driven chicago house music with stuttering vocal samples and a acidic synth line. another strong clone jack for daze!

cyh19 by mri & nhow nhow is another special release for us. since his early productions on labels like force tracks and raum musik we are fans of mri. for his new project nhow nhow, mri teams up with ferdinand dreyssig, a super talented classic trained musician. all those of you who know the releases on resopal and little helpers can confirm: the avengers are in the house!

the rebirth of cool m=minimal is pleased to release a masterpiece of the early 21st century on vinyl. till the old worlds blown up and a new one is created is an outstanding work of reductionism and minimalism. martin brandlmyar ( radian / trapist / kapitalband 1 ), werner dafeldecker ( polwechsel, david sylvian, autistic daughters) and christian fennesz ( touch / mego / thrill jockey ) on this record created a new kind of cool jazz coupled with a big portion of new york school ( cage, feldman, brown und wolff). its hard to describe the music with words. this work reveals his secrets only after listening to it a couple of times. it grows with each time you listen to it. in this work, silence and noise are never used as an end in itself. as equal parameters they stand in the composition that also has space for some tonal >flower<. our recommended listening time is – round about midnight.

we are very proud and honered to release this ep by function aka dave sumner from sandwell district. one of technos true underground heroes, function (dave sumner) has been djing and making music for over 15 years. hailing from new york, he was seduced by techno music when jeff mills held a residency (as well as his own first) at the limelight in the early 90s. dave started to produce music and from the mid-90s onwards, put out music on damon wilds synewave and his own infrastructure imprint. together with regis (karl o connor) he worked as portion reform, putting out uncompromising music on downwards and becoming the only non-birmingham producer to release on the label. in 2008 dave moved to berlin, still working with regis, and now silent servant (john mendez), put his focus on the acclaimed sandwell district imprint. obsessed is a supper powerfull floating track for the dancefloor, a typical function production. this ep also contains remixes from substance and scb aka scuba, both peak-time tracks.

big with:ernesto ferreyra, the mole, akufen, vincent lemeuix.. inspired by classic disco and electro, dkmd have already produced several dance music tracks, using old and new technology in order to come up with a unique sound which pays homage to their predecessors without sounding pastiche. echoes of giorgio moroder and donna summer can be felt throughout on the other side, while the playful and sensual taxi cab recounts the familiar story of an early morning phone call received by a girl in a cab, on her way home from a pleasurable night out. perhaps it is their experience playing together as improvisers that adds a special touch to their dance music,as they have grown accustomed to perform almost every element in their tracks using hardware intruments and effect boxes.in addition to their disco project,the two have a considerable track record as experimentalists and the dark,cosmic and mysterious androide is a good example of some of their output in the genre.even though dkmd are only at the beginning of their dancefloor adventures,they show no signs of stopping,and when asked what comes next,they will likely answer
