Annie Hall - Santolina
After more than a decade of deep, expansive productions on labels such as Detroit Underground and CPU, Annie Hall
arrives on MUSAR for a record typically rich in tex- ture andunderstated grooves.
Opening track ‘Linium’ immediately seduces listeners with a complex drum pattern that somehow feels spacious, subtly
twisting and turning it’s way around Hall’s analogue world.
Dutch artist Mattheis maintains this understated feel but adds a soft, compelling kick in response on his suspenseful remix of
‘Lavandula’. The original, moodier version of this cut the follows to open the B side, gradually erupting around a killer distorted bassline.
The EP continues to hit a more urgent note with the tense machinations of ‘Silene’, where dense layers of stuttering,
frenetic drums interweave with Hall’s trademark, melancholy keys. The record concludes on a weightless, transcendent note
with ‘San- tolina’, taking each visceral element featured thus far and slowing each down, with af- fecting results.
Indebted to vintage electro and IDM, Hall’s music is no throwback, always looking for- ward and moving dancefloors in the most unexpected ways.

Annie Hall - Problematic Tape Recorder

Annie Hall - Subsequent Experiments

Annie Hall - Unparalleled Comfort
Annie Hall returns to Sheffield's Central Processing Unit label with an EP entitledMemories That Never Happened. This record represents the producer's third time on CPU after 2016'sTenured Positionsand 2020'sFum, and it is also the latest release in a busy couple of years for Annie Hall which have also seen her drop EPs on 20:20 Vision, Orson Records and Random Island. The momentum Annie Hall has built up in recent times carries through to a dynamic collection of productions which bring enough heft in the beats to keep the dancefloor happy while also including all manner of details in the production. Memories That Never Happenedbegins with the title-track, a twitchy yet wistful cut which perfectly matches its name. There's bite to the broken-beat electro pulse, growling bass and robotic declamations of "it's Annie", but the makeup of the track is simultaneously rather rose-tinted, particularly when some chemtrails of a synth lead enter later on. The overall effect is as thoughtful as it is stimulating, akin to the halcyon productions of Daniel Avery. If 'Memories That Never Happened' is somewhat plaintive, following jam 'Problematic Tape Recorder' has the bit between its teeth from the get-go. The beat crashes and snaps, and when played off shimmering stabs of synth it all adds up to aWip3outrush that nods to both the old Rephlex Records sound as well as contemporary practitioners like Nightwave. Once again the synth lead is used lightly here, more an augmentation to the beat than the centrepiece - another demonstration of Annie Hall's ability to write with focus even when the overall intent is to move bodies in the club. The energy of 'Problematic Tape Recorder' is spun in an unusual direction on 'Subsequent Experiments', the first track ofMemories That Never Happened's B-side. This cut may be the quickest on the record, but this does not mean it shouts the loudest. Indeed, 'Subsequent Experiments' may be the most ornate production here, full of shadowy sonics and a deconstructed beat running at D&B speed. A kind of shadowrealm version of Planet Mu's early drill & bass explorations crossed with UVB-76's darkside post-Metalheadz excursions, this one is an eerie thrill. After the busy 'Subsequent Experiments', Annie Hall slows down to take the EP's home straight at mid-tempo. On 'Unparalleled Comfort', keyboard stabs slide over a rhythm that's at once driving enough for the dancefloor and nuanced enough to allow little half-melodies of synth to flit around above. It's a fitting closer for this EP, almost playing like an amalgamation of the elements which made the rest ofMemories That Never Happenedso appealing. Annie Hall returns to Central Processing Unit withMemories That Never Happened, an EP of masterful productions which will delight both clubbers and home-listeners.

Annie Hall - Sarabia
Barcelona based Annie Hall drops her debut EP on 20/20 Vision 'Maruxaina', following releases on D1, Detroit Underground, Semantica, CPU and most recently our Exit Planet Earth vinyl series. Annie's eclectic and uniquely expressive output has seen her serve up tracks that take you straight to the dance floor, alongside complex and inventive musical soundscapes.
Kicking things off on the A side the title track 'Maruxaina' draws you in with nostalgic breaks and bass trudges, complimented by warm echoed chords and hypnotic tones. Next up on the A side 'Meiga' serves up a driving groove with deep rolling drums and patterned glitches, intertwining uplifting chord progressions and a soothing vocal, forming a uniquely mesmerising electronic soundscape.A
'Bretema' opens up the B side with a space bound atmospheric gem, grounded by a solid break groove yet elevated with cinematographic synths and harmonic melodies. Wrapping up the EP 'Sarabia' provides an unapologetic experimental expression that blurs the boundaries of genre, with off kilter pads, deep kicks and edgy glass synths creating a beautifully obscure serenity.

Annie Hall‘s new LP Random Paraphilia on Detund™ explores these experiences through five original tracks with remixes by Richard Devine, Valance Drakes and ERP. Setting the stage for this intense journey into experimental electronics is Annie Hall‘s track DSM-5 which when spliced and diced in the remix by rhythmic mutilation master Valance Drakes establishes an ache deep inside mind and body. Together they offer a bold introductory to Random Paraphilia. Annie‘s collaboration with Shadow Huntaz in Bandit 28930 adds a male vocal and sets the stage for release of the pent-up pressure, through a remix by none other than Richard Devine, who emerges after months incommunicado from his new Atlanta based studio with Bandit 28930 Remix -- a remix for which many around the world have been anxiously awaiting. Prepare yourself for new Richard Devine frequencies creating what we believe to be the most blissfully disturbed / re-aligned symphonic nerve rhythms of aural affect. Annie takes the reigns back pumping a frenetic, raw, experimental sound in Sada Abe. Tables are next given to Convextion aka E.R.P. who captures her snare for a mesmerizing effect in his gorgeous idm electro soul Sada Abe remix. Annie‘s voice and rhythm machines respond with breakbeat-style in Foihtreiu diversifying the set with what only a graceful feminine touch can produce. Rounding the set out is Symphora featuring new synced visual work by CPU Bryant Place, SF based Obscura digital artist, complementing the mystical journey with a visual experience unlike any other. Record Sleeve and promo video are by DMAS3 who once again completes the audio-visual package with elegantly futuristic visual art appealing to our desire for journey far and wide. Annie Hall‘s Random Paraphilia is personal, intimate and political. It is a highly-charged and dynamic 8-track LP beckoning us to explore the world anew.

J.Wiltshire - Rush Point 9
J.Wiltshire returns to MUSAR with Sunflower At Day EP — a deep, atmospheric excursion across four tightly woven dance-floor tracks.
Marking MUSAR’s 20th release, this EP showcases some of Wiltshire’s most club- ready work yet, blending outsider house, ambient trance, and Cornish electronic influences.
The title track ‘Sunflower At Day’ is a shoegaze-infused chugger that nods to the ethereal haze of My Bloody Valentine and has a rave energy reminiscent of Future Sound of London. Track two, ‘Cosmic Slap’, takes over with its deep, dub- heavy sounds and off-kilter rhythms, playing to Wiltshire's more experimental side under a techno beat.
On the B side, we dive deeper into Wiltshire's intricate melodic world.
‘Traversing’ unfolds with enveloping, pastoral harmonic patterns, balancing surging intensity with an organic flow.
Finally, the EP closes with the cinematic ‘Rush Point 9’, a late-night noir groove that offers a perfect, reflective finale to this sonic journey.
With Sunflower At Day, Wiltshire fuses intricate textures and melodies with dance- floor intensity, offering another great soundscape from the artist for both club and home listeners.

Stefan Vincent - 8AM On The Train To Work You Ask Me To Send You Something That Makes Me Happy (F
For Dutch artist Stefan Vincent, the feeling of melancholy also offers the opportunity for beauty to be found.
“Decay and loneliness can serve a purpose. Depression can teach you things. To feel deep sadness also means the ability to feel profound emotions.” he says. With this in mind, his debut album on MUSAR Recordings, “Post- Melancholy”, unpacks the twists and turns of grappling with this emotion, drawing from breaks, electro and IDM to make his most intricate work to date, after previous releases on Token, Dynamic Reflection, Symbolism, and Non-Series.
Throughout “Post-Melancholy” Vincent traces the wave of melancholy and how it moves through the body, which allows for lighter moments alongside darker moods. Perhaps the lightest track on the album is its acidic-breaks opener, “Eyes Unclouded”, with its soaring acid lines and dazzling synths, which acts as a false pretense for the rest of the album. Tracks like “Poise”, “Arpeggino” and the meditative “Yonghegong Lama Temple Exit F” also break up the intensity. However, nestled between the more pacey, bass-weighted tracks on the album, these lighter openings still feel like tear-jerkers.
The more common associations of melancholy show up on tracks like “Another Skin To Wear” and “You Know This Isn’t Going To End Well”, which all create a more ominous feel via IDM and the polyrhythmic structures of drum’n’bass. Particularly on “Another Skin To Wear”, which borrows its name from a Radiohead lyric, the track's swooping motion feels realistic to melancholy’s chaotic and often unpredictable path. But, like all great storytellers, Vincent leaves the most poignant moment of the album for last with the rolling “8AM on the Train… (For Maarten)” devoted to his dear friend, Maarten, who sadly passed away at the young age of 36.
This LP is dedicated to Maarten de Vries (1986-2022)

Hoshina Anniversary - Banri
3
Hoshina Anniversary - Kaga

Hoshina Anniversary - Usagi
Genre: House / Techno
In Japanese, the word “Guru-Guru” refers to the state of spinning, whirling.?
This state is captured in the work of Japanese artist Hoshina Anniversary, who makes his third appearance on MUSAR with his EP Guru Guru and marks the return of the label after an extended break.
Hoshina’s self-titled brand of ‘Watechno’ has appeared on well-loved dance music labels like ESP Institute, Volvox’s Jack Dept and Young Marco’s Safe Trip,
alongside MUSAR where he also appeared as Shifting Gears back in 2022; an electronic-jazz-centered moniker.
His Guru Guru EP captures the latest snapshot of Hoshina’s sound and sees him draw from Japanese language as a through-line.
The title track is the clearest representation of his ‘Watechno’, where he uses Japanese instrumentation on top of a menacing EBM-style march. The track's slowly whirling momentum is the “Guru-Guru”.
On tracks like “Banri”, which means far away in Japanese, we see new shades to Hoshina’s work as he mixes a Japanese Wadaiko drum groove with acidic elements and piano melodies to make a track of contradictions which pairs roughness with elegance. Whereas on “Usagi”, Japanese for rabbit, Hoshina fires up the BPM.
Piano melodies remain here but their effect is more drifting and emotive than on “Banri”.
“Kaga” is named after a place in the southernmost part of Ishikawa Prefecture, between Kanazawa City and Fukui City.
On this track, Hoshina’s love for jazz comes through and even mirrors the work we heard from him under Shifting Gears.

Stefan Vincent - Yonghegong Lama Temple Exit F (Priori Remix)
Limited 12'' edition transparent crystal vinyl (150 copies) in a PVC sleeve with inner printed artwork.
Melancholy, the feeling, is often associated with darkness and deep depression. For
Dutch artist Stefan Vincent, within the experience of melancholy there’s beauty to be
found. “Decay and loneliness can serve a purpose. Depression can teach you things.
To feel deep sadness also means the ability to feel profound emotions.” he says.
For his debut on MUSAR Recordings, “Pre Melancholy” EP, Vincent channels these
notions of Melancholy into three tracks that draw on darker moods but also reflect
beauty in their intricacy and the atmospheres they create. This EP acts as a
precursor to his forthcoming album on MUSAR, “Post Melancholy” which is due in
September.
“Mono No Aware” and “Yonghegong Lama Temple Exit F” are both taken from the LP,
placed side by side with “Agent of Distraction”, an exclusive track from Vincent for
this EP only. We’re also pleased to have Montreal-based musician Priori on the remix
of “Yonghegong...”. His rework draws further emotion from that of Vincent’s by
slowing the pace and bringing delicate melodies to the forefront; it’s one for
introspection.

Ricardo Tobar - La Femme Aux Masques

Ricardo Tobar - Mineral
Genre: House / Techno
We commence with a warm and bouncy UK acid house vibe. We conclude with a beguiling 'Boards of Canada' style electronic bubble bath. We're treated to an array of flavors and an outstanding S.O.N.S remix in between. It can only be MUSAR and another compelling collection from Ricardo Tobar.
With a discography that started on Border Community and includes the likes of Co-coon and ESP Institute as well as MUSAR, Chilean Ricardo's credentials speak for themselves.
His music does, too. Constantly playing with themes of displacement, disorientation and delight in his fusions, 'Our Violence' was inspired by the ongoing discussions of cultural appropriation. At its heaviest, on tracks like the Isolee-esque 'Our Vio-lence' and S.O.N.S's SYO rolling breakbeat remix of 'La Femme Aux Masques', we're thrust deep into the most hypnotic of dances. At its most esoteric and experi-mental, tracks like 'Mineral' and 'La Femme Aux Masques', we're taken to places we didn't even know existed. Places that refuse to accept current formulas or standards and take us outside the box - where MUSAR always loves to be.

J.Wiltshire - The Number Counters

J.Wiltshire - Trails
12’’ Transparent EP Vinyl (limited edition to 150 copies) with insert printed artwork.
Three deep excursions from the superb J.Wiltshire and a remix from Konx-om-
Pax to back them up.
UK-born, Berlin-based, J.Wiltshire (Hypercolour/Super Hexagon) returns to MUSAR for
a deep excursion with Planet Mu's Konx-om-Pax on remix duties.
The tracks came to fruition in Berlin during a time in society when everything was closed
and there was a huge layer of uncertainty across the globe. "I was channelling my
interest in the introspective side of trance and finding comfort in what I was creating. It
was sort of like going back to using processes from when I first started making dance
music."
With three original tracks on the EP, 'Luv 44' opens the EP with a pulsating boom-bap
groove and atmospheric synth work via acidic licks from the SH-101. 'The Number
Counters' boasts sporadic analogue delay with white-noise snare drums and haunting
ostinatos. 'Trails' is a welcoming, sluggish roller that chugs into oblivion, making for an
idyllic warm-up excerpt for the club.
On remix duties, special guest Konx-om-Pax is summoned to bring his own
interpretation of 'The Number Counters'. As an artist, you may recognise Konx-om-Pax’s
visuals for Warp, Mogwai, Underground Resistance, Oneohtrix Point Never, Hyperdub,
Advanced Beauty and LuckyMe. Oftentimes when turning his hand to production, the
Planet Mu signee develops the original elements and pushes them into new territory via
a host of analogue effects chains. Among the mix is a hypnotic and continual breakbeat
that dips in and out dynamically, plus a host of improvised effects that sporadically paint
over the mix like a beautiful and chaotic tapestry.

Pera Sta Ori - CIN1 (Kamila Govorcin Remix)

Pera Sta Ori - BOUNCING/LASSITUDE
Transparent EP Vinyl (limited edition to 150 copies) with insert printed artwork
Pera Sta Ori is the pseudonym of greek sound artist and producer,
George Kontogiannidis. Professing a futuristic style, his music blends
senses from DnB, IDM and bleep. Bursting into the general
consciousness back in 2017, time has only seen this promising artist
grow with releases on brokntoys, Furthur Electronix and Yellow
Machines. He now readies his next EP with us at MUSAR, titled
‘IMMI’.
Short for ‘Immigrant’, ‘IMMI’ EP is dedicated to uprooted people.
Within, Pera Sta Ori explores an imaginary world in which misery is
erased from memory. Projecting into vast expanses, each track
forms an echo chamber. From the urgent and frenetic vocals of ´SCATTER 0^’, layered with crunching percussion and swarming
bass, to the ambience of ‘Bouncing/Lassitude’ and downtempo
quirks of ‘CIN1’, Pera Sta Ori provides a variance of headscapes to
slip into.
Chilean celestial spark Kamila Govorèin creates her own world on
the remix of ‘CIN1’. Jagged percussion ripple and ricochet with nearindustrial
inflections. Peppered with openings of etherealism, the
samples of the original glide whilst Govorèin keeps things driving
with four-to-the- floor punches.

MANASYt - Mobile Pharmacy (Via App Remix)

MANASYt - Orthodox Spanking
MUSAR is honoured to welcome Bulgaria's electro-synth pioneer
MANASYt with a new five- track EP, the first in a three-part series.
'Reality Defense Department' will be the Bulgarian's first new material
since 2012.
Petar Tassev aka MANASYt, hails from the twilight zone. Growing up
with the blacks swans in the forest of communist Bulgaria, listening to
metal and hardcore music then interpreting the moody, roughness
together with inspirations from electronic new-wave music to a raw,
pure and dark adventure bubbling with madness.
'Reality Defense Department' is a future horror movie soundtrack.
The first track 'Memory Imprints' is a pure psychedelic-trip into the
mental clinic for clockwork orange droogs, while the second track
'Mobile Pharmacy' evokes an apocalyptic alien attack. 'Orthodox
Spanking' is a dark, wayward fetish party electro track full of postpunk
elements, fit- ting for an artist given to performing live in a
rubber 'gimp' mask.
A pair of remixes are supplied by Brooklyn's wonder girl 'Via App' with
a deep, dark and gothic techno rework for the late dazed hours of the
morning and Norwich's kept secret, Wax Stag (an occasional
collaborator with Bibio and Clark) that delivers a dreamy, cosmic twist
that will linger in your consciousness for a long, long time to come.

J.Wiltshire - Summon Them
Following 12"s from Ricardo Tobar and MANASYt, the third
release on Tel Aviv's MUSAR welcomes rising UK star and
Super Hexagon label boss, J.Wiltshire.
The Laghan Pux EP finds Wiltshire sharing his psychedelic
electronic side and brings his versatile skills together, serving
up four completely different soundtracks.
The gleaming sci-fi gem 'DESklep' opens the EP as a pure
melodic IDM track loaded with Cornwall style while the bassheavy
title track 'Laghan Pux' is pumping as a dark & sharp
peak-time trippy beast.
Next up, the mysterious Roy of The Ravers, gives you an interpretation of what proper acid sounds like, whereas
'Chained Releases' takes you on a deep and hypnotic
adventure into space, full of warm guitar melodies and trancey
synths.
'Summon Them' closes the EP, an ambient magic piece for a
hazy, orange morning where the birds just woke up and the
trees singing for the first time to break the day.

Ricardo Tobar - The Structures Of Summer Are Within Us
Genre: House / Techno
Following celebrated releases from Annie Hall, J.Wiltshire, MANASYt and Mental
Overdrive, Amsterdam based label MUSAR returns to Ricardo Tobar for ‘Nadivi’, two
earthy electronic trips, accompanied by a bewitching remix from Legowelt.
On this exciting release, Chilean-born Tobar continues his knack of blending the live
tones of krautrock and electronica with a house and techno pulse, in a style not
dissimilar to Luke Abbot or James Holden (Tobar has previously released on the
latter’s imprint, Border Community.)
Title track ‘Navidi’ finds him at his offbeat best, a genuinely progressive and
psychedelic rolling house number that blossoms into something surprisingly epic
while utilising only weirdo textures, askew basslines and otherworldly samples.
Legowelt, meanwhile, flips the energy of the original into an acid bath, blending his
typical grit with a halcyon and dare we say, surprisingly funky bassline!
Retaining the weirdo spirit of its source material. Finally, on the memorably titled ‘The
Structures Of Summer Are Within Us’, Tobar rolls out a wistful, cathartic live jam that
blossoms into something curious and perhaps unexpected, reminiscent of Silver
Apples or Animal Collective.
Staking further claim as one of the most naturally innovative and feeling producers in
the electronic music landscape, ‘Navidi’ is that rare sort of dance release;
propulsive, intriguing and refreshingly lovely.

Nightwave - The Journey (Violet Remix)
Genre: House / Techno
12" EP Vinyl (Limited edition to 150 copies) in a PVC sleeve with paper inner + MP3 Code.
MUSAR continues to explore the healthy landscape of underground and alternative
electronic music with the debut release on the label from Nightwave. ‘The Journey’
is a fitting title for the Glaswegian producer, DJ and promoter, who has been a
lynchpin for the city’s vibrant music scene since her first release in 2010. In the time
since, Nightwave has a developed a punchy and highly original sound that blends
potent influences of acid, techno and forward-thinking bass music, with releases on
DABJ, UTTU, Fool’s Gold, DEXT and her own imprint Heka Trax.
For her MUSAR debut, Nightwave celebrates, in her own words, “joy, dance,
exploring inner worlds, the celebration of nature and life and how it all
interconnects”. On a delicate tip, opening and title track ‘The Journey’ establishes
the EP’s “rainforest rave” aesthetic, spiralling upwards with weightless energy. It’s
underlying percussion steps forward on ‘Jiboia Groove’, which blossoms thrillingly
into wave upon wave of ethereal, breakbeat-led rave.

12" EP Vinyl (Limited edition to 150 copies) in a PVC sleeve with obi strip.
Toyko’s Hoshina Anniversary has risen to particular prominence in recent
years with his self-titled brand of ‘Wa- techno’. Stylistically fusing traditional
Japanese instrumentation with Chicago and Detroit sensibilities, his works
have found homes on ESP Institute, Young Marco’s Safe Trip and
Amsterdam-based MUSAR Recordings.
Landing on the latter, MUSAR, little over a year ago with ‘Zangai’ EP,
Hoshina returns under a new cloak, Shifting Gears, to present ‘Evil’ EP.
Named after the 1975 ‘Gears’ LP of jazz and hard bop organist, Johnny
Hammond, the Shifting Gears moniker focuses heavily on principles of Jazz
and raw musicianship, with a continued exploration of machine-reared club
sounds. How the two can take shape as one.

Records alongside his own label, Proper’s Cult.
Now, this renowned crazy cat presents a new set of works, ‘Home’ EP with
MUSAR Recordings.
Teaming up with drummer, producer and long-time collaborator, D. (real name

Ricardo Tobar - Parques
Genre: House / Techno
Releasing his first ever vinyl release ‘El Sunset’ on James Holden’s, Border Community back in
2007, Chilean producer Ricardo Tobar has since been held in high regard by the seminal UK
producer. Intricately constructing his way around the parameters of emotionally-lead, highly
atmospheric electronic music, Ricardo has brought his sound forward to grace the rosters of
Jennifer Cardini’s, Correspondant, ESP Institute and MUSAR Recordings. Continuing to
extend his already significant discography, he now returns to MUSAR Recordings for a third time
with the ‘After The Movie’ EP.
Ricardo’s ‘After The Movie’ EP forms a selection of cuts that have been held in his locker for quite
some time. Uncovered by MUSAR Recordings label head, Dweedo on a podcast from way back, it
seemed only natural that this unreleased music from Ricardo would find its home on the
Amsterdam-Tel-Aviv label.
“This EP is quite special to me because it reflects a long timeline in my work.
The ‘After The Movie’ track had been in the vault for ages until David from MUSAR found it
in an old podcast; it really takes me back to those first steps in recording music.”

Releasing his first ever vinyl release ‘El Sunset’ on James Holden’s, Border Community back in
2007, Chilean producer Ricardo Tobar has since been held in high regard by the seminal UK
producer. Intricately constructing his way around the parameters of emotionally-lead, highly
atmospheric electronic music, Ricardo has brought his sound forward to grace the rosters of
Jennifer Cardini’s, Correspondant, ESP Institute and MUSAR Recordings. Continuing to
extend his already significant discography, he now returns to MUSAR Recordings for a third time
with the ‘After The Movie’ EP.

Mystic Jungle - Keep Alive This Fire
2024 Repress!
Mystic Jungle makes a much-awaited return with Deviant Disco, a new 12” of sun-soaked groovers released through Periodica Records. A culmination of several years of writing, vibing, and influence mining, these compositions represent the producer’s most varied and expansive works yet, and to fully realize his vision, Mystic Jungle invited the entire West Hill Studio crew to contribute narcotizing layers of pop vocal mesmerism, and additional touches of guitar, bass, percussion, and synth.
Strains of Italo disco, balearic boogie, and freaky funk are interspersed amidst passages of Nigerian highlife, soft focus AOR, kinetic Hi-NRG, and exotic lover’s rock, resulting in a personalized voyage through a paradise of sound, one that is unmoored from the concerns of modernity, and celebrates instead a hedonistic naivety, and a desire to dance all day in spiritual ecstasy.

Bella Boo - Barak
A. The Hours – B1. Álom – B2. Barak
The story of Bella Boo is not one of overnight success, though of course it might appear as such, if
you haven't been somewhat embedded in the wonderful and weird world of Swedish club culture
over the last 12 years or so, in which case you will know her as one of the most eclectic, informed
and hardworking DJs on the scene.
It wasn't until last year's Studio Barnhus debut, the Fire EP, that the world finally started talking
about Bella's extraordinary production skills – the record's fuzzy r&b harmonics and snappy analog
drums prompted Pitchfork to declare it “the flat-out dreamiest thing to come from the label yet”.
This was followed quickly by boyboy, a universally beloved track on last year's Studio Barnhus
Volym 1 compilation, in which she “[drizzled] bluesy sweet nothings over elliptical scrapes and
squelches, suggesting Matthew Herbert remixing St Germain” (Pitchfork again).
Supervillain is Bella's first solo release of 2019, a perfect three-track thing that sees the currently
London-based artist continue to expertly straddle the fence between enigmatic dreamlands and
groove-locked dance floors. Artwork by Stockholm visual artist and long-time Bella colla-Boo-rator
Alexandra Karpilovski.

Shortinfo:
We gladly present the long awaited debut album by kurdish multi-instrumentalist Philippos Sîpano and Frankfurt am Main’s mighty duo Dan Bay & Le Rubrique aka The MPC Orchestra. “The Spirit of Dilovan” pays tribute to Philippos Sîpano and Dan Bayat’s youth band “Spirit Of Dilovan”, sketches the different musical paths the two took over the years and finds its final form in their new collaboration with Dilovan Le Rubrique, a master in the studio and a true patchbay wizzard.
With multilayered arrangements based on different kurdish music traditions and inspired by their indivudual experiences of Pop- and Clubculture, Philippos Sîpano & The MPC Orchestra’s new album can be both perceived as diasporic Popmusic or epic dancefloor monster for experienced music lovers.
All songs were produced at Offenbach’s Upper Citycenter Studio and dedicated to all DIlovans* out there, hoping they will one day constitute the majority of all people and we will all find peace, love and habibtiness on planet earth.

Ghia - Out Of Luck (Instrumental) (Soundrays Mix)
Following the success of the "Out Of Luck" single, we're wrapping up the Ghia reworks chapter with "The Other Side" - a dynamic 12" vinyl loaded with three contemporary funk tracks and three instrumental cuts.
The release starts off with the title track on which we can hear another collaboration with vocalist Adriano Prestel. The song is built on the foundation of "Message From The Other Side," a synth-funk instrumental from last year's "Don't Stop" LP. Jim Dunloop has skillfully rebuilt the infectious grooves from scratch, and guitarist Lucy Liebe has contributed to the guitar elements. Interestingly, the 1985 original version contained vocals that were preserved on a demo tape. These original lyrics conveyed the idea that everyone should learn to listen to the other side. Adriano picked up this idea and wrote new verses and a new chorus, beautifully transforming the song into a soulful bliss. In today's world, the message remains relevant: without listening, understanding, and compromise, solutions are elusive.
Next up, DJ Friction takes "Out Of Luck" to new heights with a remix infused with electro-funk. The synth bass replaces the original, a punchier kick and a clap snare give it a classic boogie feel. Additional strings on the chorus and an extended build-up complete the transformation, making it a fantastic tune for any DJ set.
Marian Tone returns to remix "The Other Side" in the '85 rework, blending parts of the original song with replayed instruments from the studio sessions. He adds clav sounds and retains the original marimba keys by Ghia's Lutz Boberg. If you are into the 80s vibes, this rework will be your choice.
The flip side features instrumental versions that, even without vocals, are a special treat for all boogie and funk enthusiasts. Last but not least, the release includes the original mixdown of "Out Of Luck" from when the recording was finalized at Ed Longo's Soundrays studio - offering a different take from the instrumental version on the previously issued 45 single.
The 12" is presented in a full-picture sleeve designed by The Raincoatman, also known as label owner DJ Scientist.

Suzanne Kraft, - Femme Cosmic
A boy named Suzanne. Travelling from Los Angeles to Portland and back to Los Angeles again, Suzanne Kraft's vinyl debut (check out his previous efforts on http://discothequerecords.wordpress.com/tag/suzanne-kraft/) features four tracks of frenetic sunshine ecstasy. Chill rave, pill wave, hypno disco, Balearic beats or slow-motion house made by the careless youth of the US-American west coast? Call it what you want, at the end of the day or the night it's simply joyful music made to make you happy. On Kraft's "Green Flash EP", the contemplative romance of "Green Flash" counteracts the straightness of "Morning Come", while "Turning" and especially "Femme Cosmic" are the icing on the cake. Let's face it, old people: The kids are all right! First 5000 copies housed in a killer and tremendously flamboyant sleeve. Bite into summer.

Juan Atkins' Infiniti project combines raw tactility and puristic elegance with Skynet, where slinking grooves mask chaotic frequencies and roughly-hewn structure. Alongside fellow Detroit legend Terrence Dixon who appears on several tracks, Atkins exposes the life and emotion in machines, outputting a biomorphic atmosphere of industrial soul. The ongoing importance of this album is indisputable, essential both to techno and to Tresor.

lucrecia dalt - veta
UPC 827170557567 Rel date 27.10.2014
Tracklist 12”: A1. Lucrecia Dalt - Esotro B1. Lucrecia Dalt - Veta
Description:
Following and expanding upon the line of thought put forward in her 2013 album Syzygy, Lucrecia Dalt ends in a place familiar, yet noticeably different on her new self-titled EP. Its two tracks, “Esotro” and “Veta”, continually defy expectation — haunting vocal ballads that trickle into clouds of white noise — but for an acquainted listener that won’t surprise. What may are the music's newly raw textures and palpable weight, counterbalancing the carefully wrought beauty that’s always been there. You wouldn't be totally wrong to call Dalt a "bedroom producer," but anyone can grab a laptop, a production software, and begin experimenting in the comfort of their own home. It’s rare to find a “bedroom producer” like Dalt with so sharp an ear, matching intimacy with technical rigor beat for beat. Her music is honest, for sure, but also impeccably engineered. To that point, everything on this EP Dalt crafted herself — no samples, no Ableton Live presets. Her composition process, much like her live set, is an improvisation structured by the tools at hand. Sounds are routed and rerouted, filtered and trimmed, finally emerging as envisioned, or, as often, not. Take the vocal textures on “Veta”: “Ahs and Ohs” made by people throughout the world that she compiled through an open call made on her tumblr. But regardless of method, she always produces crystal-clear, ever surprising,
seemingly inevitable music. At every stage, she's an original.

Tracklist 12: A1 Wanna Let You Go B1 Back On Earth B2 Reagy Dub
Markus Fix has been one of the early companions of Deep Vibes Recordings and we're happy to see him back with this stunning 3 Track solo EP. In fact this record somehow seems to close the circle between his early playful works and today's club sound. " Wanna Let You Go" is a beautiful warm house track with a sweet piano line. What might seem like a perfect sundowner has potential to become a secret weapon for early morning hours too. Release your mind and let the body follow! Whilst speaking of that: " Back On Earth" will make you jack! Pure energy, compressed to a juicy baseline. No more words needed. " Reagy Dub" makes the round up and fills in somewhere between the two others. Warm up, cool down or open airs sun splash. Check out this diverse as beautiful record!
Have a great summer! Yours truly, DVR.

Tracklist 12: A1 Wanna Let You Go B1 Back On Earth B2 Reagy Dub
Markus Fix has been one of the early companions of Deep Vibes Recordings and we're happy to see him back with this stunning 3 Track solo EP. In fact this record somehow seems to close the circle between his early playful works and today's club sound. " Wanna Let You Go" is a beautiful warm house track with a sweet piano line. What might seem like a perfect sundowner has potential to become a secret weapon for early morning hours too. Release your mind and let the body follow! Whilst speaking of that: " Back On Earth" will make you jack! Pure energy, compressed to a juicy baseline. No more words needed. " Reagy Dub" makes the round up and fills in somewhere between the two others. Warm up, cool down or open airs sun splash. Check out this diverse as beautiful record!
Have a great summer! Yours truly, DVR.
