About RVDS : He may have been actively involved in music since the ‘80s, but Richard von der Schulenburg has managed to remain something of a cult proposition even as he now moves alongside respected outfits such as Smallville and Uncanny Valley, also based in his hometown of Hamburg. As RVDS the producer has largely issued his music himself through the It’s label, starting out with the Hausarrest 12” in 2008, while stopping off at Laid to deliver the excellent Moon Oddity single and plenty more lunar-minded releases besides. One particular favourite was the Summer EP, which is a fine display of the idiosyncratic approach von der Schulenburg takes when making hardware-rooted house music.

As well as his production exploits he has also been a resident at Golden Püdel for the past 11 years, long before it was so hotly tipped on the international party circuit. After the Moments album released five years ago, a new RVDS long-player has arrived in the form of Shadows. It’s a sizable 12-track effort spread over three discs, bringing a different mood to his previous work. As you can tell from the opening track “Shadows 1”, which is available to stream in full below, there’s more space afforded to atmospheric pieces and less concern on dancefloor dynamics. That’s not to say there’s a lack of house beats on the album, but as ever with the sound of RVDS, the emphasis is placed on the synths rather than drums.

All tracks by RVDS, Guitar on A2: Philipp Schneider, Voice on E1: Giada Pesce.

Short info:
Space is the place! After his travel in the universe, RVDS is back on earth with his first result of "out-of-space" travelling: the "SPACE EP", starts with three rhythm tracks, a tribute to the Roland machines 808, 606, 727. Besides the 1st track is an Electro hymn like the ones of E.R.P., the 2nd and 3rd tracks are the finest rhythm tools which force you to dance on the moon. The last track is a great ambient piece, familiar to RVDS work with Lawrence and Chrisitan Naujoks on their project "SKY WALKING". Endless space …
Another Special is the Artwork, cause each sleeve comes with a unique handmade drawing by RVDS himself. Art and Sound in Space!

4 raw deep acid tracks. It’s moony: the first track is a TB-303 monster which shows us the way to the acid moon, the ritual makes us crazy while the moon beats are moving our feets (thanks to the TR-707). The moon signals makes us moving into space, we are on another level. We land on the moon and take a walk. It’s a poem and it’s acid ... LIMITED to 303 VINYL More

It’s an album, It’s deep, It’s acid, It’s fragile, It’s party, It’s lonely, It’s all together, It’s music itself, It’s special, It’s RVDS with his Moments.
After the EP „Waiting, Kiss and Love“ comes the album now. Inspired by classic deep and acid house. Good to listen to these old Instruments: TR-808, Roland JP-6, Wurlitzer E-Piano and some other specials combined with new accents, but always a love to Detroit music. Tips: „Acid dream“ and the vocal track „Pain“.

B3. Court 04:45 min

SHORT INFO:

J. Alberts “config” EP for Couldn’t Care More is one more step into his very own microcosm of electronic music wizadry: There is the flickering groove of “Armor”, myriads of cut-up sonic pieces morphed into a glorious track somewhere next to Techno and House and there’s the distorted quiet beauty of slowly breathing “config4”, ambientesque but filled with tension like Huerco S does it. There are the holographic breakbeats of “config5”, with voice samples and synth stabs melted in New Yorks fiercest heat and there’s the sped-up ambient groove of ghostly “config2”. The last track “Court” sums it up, a breathless groove mutation topped by spheric keyboard sounds. J. Albert gets it all together and he does it with a quite uncanny certainty. A different level.

SHORT INFO:

We Smile were part of the Hamburger Schule back in the early Nineties: expressive vocals, associative lyrics in German and English, brittle guitars and overall a quite broad interpretation of the general idea of Pop. Now, 30 years later, Hamburg label Couldn’t Care More releases these spectacular remixes of songs from We Smiles album “Für Die Anderen”: Glasgows JD Twitchs (Optimo) turns “Sack Voll Drogen” into one twisted colossus of a track, made from electro, breaks and rave , Tokyos Tentenko fires up the Casio for her two versions of "31 24 42" and Hamburgs Mense Reents (Egoexpress, Die Vögel, Die Goldenen Zitronen) builds the most extraordinary elegant Pop song from the sparse "Can't Resist (Popmusiker Sind Auch Künstler-Version)". Also included is the formidable (and remastered) original of "Kind Und Kegel".

B. Repeat Orchestra – Monks In A Club (04:48 min)

SHORT INFO:

"Monks In A Club" from the Repeat Orchestras album "Infamous Lost Tracks" is a perfect example of elegant dancefloor understatement, smooth, minimalistic and groovy as hell; no wonder that Superpitcher got thrilled and created not a remix but his own track inspired by Repeat Orchestra, reworking the essence of "Monks In A Club". And Superpitcher did what only Superpitcher can: "Monks In The Sky" is an epic ride, expanding, stretching, ebbing and flowing, ten minutes of levitating groove hypnosis that goes in depth. Fascinating.

ARTIST: Stareaway
TITLE: No Life In This Ghost Town - The Remixes II

GENRE/S: Electronica, Pop Ambient

TRACKLISTS:

A1 O Suomi (Irisarri Remix)
A2 Appointments (David Westlake Remix)
B1 All Over You (Thomas Fehlmann Remix)
B2 Dreams May Never (Simon Scott Remix)

SHORT INFO:

Back in 2011 Markus Guentner and Heiko Badje formed Stareaway to follow their vision of creating both enchanting and haunting music from melodies and drones. Combining Guentners complex Wall of Electronic Sound and Badjes ethereal androgyn voice and multifaceted guitar play, they indeed produced some epic works between Ambient, Pop and Shoegaze, strangely shimmering and profoundly mysterious.
Now Stareaways fantastic (and back then maybe a little overlooked) album No Life In This Ghost Town sees its rerelease and is, for celebrational purposes, accompanied by this EP of four stunning remixes by stunning artists Rafael Anton Irisarri (who also did the mastering), Simon Scott (Slowdive), Thomas Fehlmann and David Westlake (ex Sneaker Pimps). Rafael Anton Irisarris magical take on O Suomi sparkles bright, still with melancholia always present. David Westlake emphasizes the Pop-aspect of Appointments, adding lush synth melodies and light-filled grooves while Thomas Fehlmann lets All Over You spiral into Popambients most majestic heights. Finally Simon Scott builds a Kathedrale aus Klang on Dreams May Never. Amazing remixes of amazing originals.

Release Info:
Stareaway is Markus Guentner (Kompakt, A Strangely Isolated Place) and Heiko Badje (La Grande Illusion) carefully combining ambient soundscapes, shoegazy guitars, melancholic Pop melodies and these amazing bodiless vocals to form a deep, subtle and somehow hard to define kind of enchanted music. Their 2013 album No Life In This Ghost Town (mastered by Rafael Anton Irisarri) is now re-released (via Couldn’t Care More); seven wonderful tracks, caressing and thoughtful, yet touched by a certain darkness that makes you shiver. Brilliant works that need to be rediscovered.
The album-rerelease is accompanied by a spectacular EP with remixes by Rafael Anton Irisarri, Simon Scott (Slowdive), Thomas Fehlmann und David Westlake (ex-Sneaker Pimps).

B3 Less Sensational 05:47 min

SHORT INFO:

Stefan Schwanders Repeat Orchestra presents “Infamous Lost Tracks”, an album appearing out of the blue, coming from spheres where time, space and Zeitgeist are nothing more than words.
With the Repeat Orchestra Schwander (who of course also is Harmonious Thelonious, A Rocket In Dub, Antonelli and a lot more) found a unique way of channeling deep House Music, a minimalistic setup and an idea of creating enjoyable music into amazing tracks that sound so effortless and natural. From first track "Call And Response" on it’s obvious that the main thing that this album is about is the groove, sometimes euphoric, sometimes quite unobtrusive but always irresistible, build from massive basslines, complex rhythms and the masterfully performed interplay of repetition and modulation. Warm harmonies, multilayered (at times quite unusual ("Nightdubbing")) melodies and subtle arrangements complete these Infamous Lost Tracks and their very own formular between Düsseldorf, Chicago and Lagos. There’s nothing harsh in this music, no aggression, still it’s far from being tame or tranquil: The pumping energy of "A Means To An End" or the sublime liquid shuffle of "Less Sensational" show the swing and kick inside these works that are made for delight but not to please.

And “Monks In A Club” is the most brilliant example of dancefloor understatement that you’ll ever hear in your life. Reduction, elegance and the right kind of mania concentrated into some minutes of pure club heaven. Handclaps, nonchalance & madness. An essential singularity and the swan song to the Repeat Orchestra, there will be no more of it. Get It And Smile.

SHORT INFO:

Following her highly praised "An Antworten EP" on TAL, Tentenko releases “The Soft Cave” on Couldn’t Care More. The Tokyo Wonder Girl further expands her unique universe of electronic music with four stunning tracks between oddly beguiling iridescence ("The Wave") and deliberately raw technoid clanging ("Stalactite"), developing a twisted yet very playful version of Experimental Techno, Breakbeats or whatever it is ("The Fish Stone"). Exciting stuff for Warp / Modern Love / Sähkö aficionados and everyone who dares.

B2. Ta Ta Ta (6:14 min)


Short Info:
With the indeed adventurous Aventure EP on Couldn’t Care More Harmonious Thelonious further explores the depths of his unique vision, merging African rhythms, European harmonies and American minimalism: The title track keeps the same yet ever-changing lighthearted melody effortlessly meandering back and forth over electrified beats while Some Blue Beats is more on the minimalist side, as controlled as eccentric. Ta Ta Ta keeps it darker, with hypnotic percussions, organ chords noir and a big bass. Advanced music. Play loud.

“It’s All Around You” and “One Four Tee” let deepness and passion rule in full swing while “Rescue” rides smoothly on a huge bass line. And “Stay Close” is nothing but a fascinating groove. Inspired and timeless vibes by John Daly, if you have a floor to fill this record comes handy for sure.

Tracklist:
A : Heights (Jus' Rushin Mix) B1: Oxidize (Original Mix) B2: Oxidize (RVDS Remix)

Infotext:
After his exciting album "Elasticity" on his own imprint Elastic Dreams, A Sagittariun delivers the equally fascinating three track "Oxidize EP" for german label Couldn't Care More. While "Heights" is a stripped-down basic-channelish techno ride, rough, edgy and with a hint of hypnotic melodies, the title track heads in a quite different direction: still it's raw expressionistic techno, but the flow is ever-changing, mesmerizingly shifting and twisting between hissing beats and enlightened synths. For the remix of "Oxidize" Golden Pudel Club resident and odd-house virtuoso RVDS fires up the acid machine and does it Detroit style, warm and cold, uplifting and melancholic.

The Oliverwho Factory come up with a brand new release on Couldn‘t Care More.With „You Just Don‘t Know“, originally sung by soul diva Phyllis Hyman, the duo delivers energetic Detroit sounds between techno and house, massive beats and soulful vocals.
Vibrant stuff with a unique twist! More

After releases on Gigolo, Rush Hour, Planet E and We Play House, french producer Sebastien San comes up with more great stuff: The "Asylum E.P." on Hamburg based label Couldn't Care More (who only just made a deep impression with The Oliverwho Factorys I Can See) is made to be played on every dancefloor there is. With the hypnotic techno-soundscapes of title track Asylum Sebastien San created one of his best tracks ever and the other two tracks are of same quality. Uptempo track Does Compute is driven by inescapable hooks while Alpha Centauri slows it down a little with warm but inclined strings, chicago house claps and a subtly pulsating bassline.

"I Can See" by The Oliverwho Factory is the second release of german label Couldn't Care More (following Stareaways "Learn How To Love Me") and it's just marvellous: The duo from Detroit, who by the way runs the stunning label Madd Chaise Inc. and recently released "Galactic Transit" on Rush Hour and "Night Lights" on Planet E, delivers finest Detroit tech deep house with a twist, that will make you wave your arms and scream on the dancefloor. While the basic track is voluminously wafting and rawly pushing forward vocalist Shone tops it with her power- and soulful singing. Both tracks are mastered straight to the point by A.O.S.. Classic.
