3rd release on IS Records from Fake Left. First two making waves with the likes of Sven Vath, Linkwood, Ben Sims and Andrew Weatherall. Startin off on the A side with straight up electro goodness of MTF and continuing on to the b-side, acid hooks and stripped back grooves of The Clockmakers Kinetic Dreams. Track 3 Transference finishes off the EP nicely more jackin grooves, haunting pads and frequencies More

Second release on iS Records, The A-side, The Future Never Was combines sparse beats and pads held together by a growling stuttered bass, which gives the track an industrial feel but on a techno/house tip. On the flip, Fake The Feeling, draws on sounds beyond the current trend for vintage analogue in an original take on the house blueprint. The B2 track Out of Orbit is 4 minutes 48 seconds of Tech soul, for the floor or the headphones.

It is with honour & pleasure that we present to you the return of one of the finest in game! Active since god-knows-when, and equally known as artist, label owner, event promoter and all-round champion of all that’s right and proper, Semtek has cast a long shadow in the electronic underground over the past two decades. Ever the mercurial savant, Benji distils a wide range of influences that have shaped his various endeavours on his first 12” for us: from the darkside revivalism of DJ Persuasion through to the raw productions of L.M.Y.E, and even down to his earliest productions on DBA. RAD-SEM1 is two tracks of ice-cold club cuts that capture the chilly futurism of second wave Detroit Techno, the sparser fringes of UKG and the abyssal soundscapes of late 90s DnB. But as is characteristic of Semtek’s output, always far greater than the sum of its parts. More

In accordance with relativity, they are in some sense interchangeable, but we do know that they form co-equal parts of a larger 'thing' called space-time, and it is only within space-time that the most complete understanding of the motion and properties of natural objects and phenomena can be rigorously understood by physicists. Space and time are to space-time what arms and legs are to humans. In some sense they are interchangeable, but you cannot understand 10,000 years of human history without including both arms and legs as part of the basic human condition. More

Gen Ludd are Glasgow-based Rich McMaster (Golden Teacher, Modern Institute) and Tom Marshallsay, both of whom are a big part of the extended Rubadub family. Their music perfectly embodies the Rubadub ethos of music for heads and feet. After months of negotiations with our minister of finance Hillington West Snr, TAFKNAGL (That artists formerly known as General Ludd) return with four precise cuts of pure rhythm and motion. These tracks are a message to the Ramona-toting, gymnasium-powered international dance deejay. Please be bold enough to play them... you’ll make the world a better place. We’ll give you free WAVS too. More

So this is the tune you’ve been hearing all summer in Ibiza. Many of the world's biggest djs have been playing it, it’s had something like a million plays on Youtube and didn’t even require a sponsored post on Facebook.

Ned Ludd, possibly born Edward Ludlam, is the person from whom, it is popularly claimed, the Luddites took their name. In 1779, Ludd is supposed to have broken two stocking frames in a fit of rage. After this incident, attacks on the frames were jokingly blamed on Ludd. When the "Luddites" emerged in the 1810s, his identity was appropriated to become the folkloric character of Captain Ludd, also known as King Ludd or General Ludd, the Luddites' alleged leader and founder.

Much like Crowded House, you know more Dave Clark songs than you think you do. In fact, Mr Clark's musical endeavours past & present trace a line through the occult history of the Glasgow underground. Along with JD Twitch he made up the Optimo Espacio remix unit, reworking tracks by the likes of Factory Floor, Boris & Pharoahe Monch (?!). As a member of Big Ned he's traversed the nefarious regions of Post-Beefheart Shaman Rock. With Roger Elliot as State of Flux he released a series of stone-cold killing Techno records in the mid-90's. Under the guise of LUMA, Clark put out one of 2013's most anthemic 12"s for Optimo Trax in the form of the Amesville EP. As Truffle Club - driving electronic disco for the likes of Andy Blake's much-lauded Dissident imprint. Here however, he returns to the moniker of Sparky, a name you might already be familiar with having probably copped the Drexciyan epic "Portland" - the title track having been subsequently remixed by no less than Ricardo Villalobos & Tuff City Kids respectively. With this inimitable EP, Sparky dug deep into the archives to unearth two unique cuts recorded direct to tape in 1994. yes: NINETEEN-NINETY-FOUR. Listening to these tracks it becomes immediately apparent how ahead of the curve Clark was in dem heady dayz. Anyway, enough of the talkin - it's now time to step though the doors of Gnarnia and wash yourself in the light of.... the "Tapes". More

Now might not be the best point in time to be referencing Rolf Harris, but.... can you guess what it is yet? It ain't gonna be hard for those in the know. The second in Rubadub's white label series sees a gang of veteran knob twiddlers with over 20 years of experience under their belt. At this stage we might as well just tell you who it is..... but we're still not gonna. Strictly limited pressing. When it's gone, it's..... copies stashed away in the warehouse to flog on discogs for £300 a pop after everywhere else sells out. One clue : the cat no is RAD-FRK1 !
