About:
Enigmatic Society is the next offering from the multi-faceted, Grammy-nominated supergroup Dinner Party. Full of opulently intricate instrumentation and a range of sleek R&B to smooth neo-soul vocals, Enigmatic Society is mesmerizing in its entirety.

This deep sense of community and family flows throughout the project with the album's artwork designed by Kamasi Washington's sister, artist Amani Washington.

Fossar - Aeriel (Windy City Version)
Tracklist:
A1 Good 2 Me
A2 Free
B1 Make Me Feel
B2 Aeriel (Windy City Version)
Smallville Record sub-label Fuck Reality returns in March 2024 with Fossar’s ‘Make Me Feel’ EP.
The Fuck Reality imprint founds it origins in 2015 as a sub label of the widely lauded Smallville label with a heavy focus on classic House music. The label kicked off with the reissue of Westbam and Nena’s iconic ‘Oldschool Baby’ with remixes from Smallpeople and Gerd Janson before going on to release music from Smallville staple Moomin, Frantzvaag – who also release the first album on the label last year - and more. Here the label welcomes Fossar, co-founder of the Feuilleton imprint, onto the imprint with his new EP.
‘Good 2 Me’ opens with airy chords, robust toms, flickers of resonant synth stabs and soulful vocals running atop snappy drums before ‘Free’ embraces a classic 90’s New York aesthetic with heavily swung percussion a jazzy bass groove, emotive piano lines and warm vocal chants.
The B-side is then kicked off with ‘Make Me Feel’, diving deep with shimmering, expansive leads, looped vocal, swirling string melodies and a classic bumpy bass and snare combination. The ‘Aeriel (Windy City Version)’ then rounds things out, as the name would suggest nodding to the Chicagoan roots of House and employing all the classic tropes from slick flutes, intertwined keys, glistening piano melodies and shuffled 909 drums.
All tracks written, produced and mixed by Pchris Gruber
Mastering by Lopazz / Mixmastering, vinyl Cut by Helmut Erler / Lathesville

Special Remarks: standard version including an mp3 download code.
We’re extremely proud to present “Lost”, the third full-length venture from Anders Trentemøller. “Lost”, much like its predecessor “Into the Great Wide Yonder” (2010), serves not only as a logical continuation of his work, but also as yet another fuck-you to whatever genre you thought you had him boxed into.
The Trentemøller sound is definitely left intact, yet as a whole it really doesn’t sound like anything he’s ever produced before.
Differing from “Into The Great Wide Yonder”, which was a rather bold cinematic landscape, “Lost” is definitely a far more streamlined affair and way more “song structured”. It’s the kind of record one can only produce after endless months of studio isolation. Just where his creativity flourishes best.
2LP tracklist:
01. The Dream (feat. Low) 02. Gravity (feat. Jana Hunter of Lower Dens) 03. Still On Fire 04. Candy Tongue (feat. Marie Fisker) 05. Trails
06. Never Stop Running (feat. Jonny Pierce of The Drums) 07. River Of Life (feat. Ghost Society) 08. Morphine
09. Come Undone (feat. Kazu Makino of Blonde Redhead) 10. Deceive (feat. Sune Rose Wagner of The Raveonettes) 11. Constantinople

trentemoller - Moan (Radioslave Remix)
2022 repress
Tracklist:
01 Moan (Trentemoller Remix)
02 Moan (Radioslave Remix)
Only released in October 2006, Anders Trentemøller‘s stunning debut-album „The Last Resort“ already evolved into one of the most successful independent albums of the year. Raving reviews all over the place, various elections as „album of the year“ and solid playlists at the radios express the huge interest in the fantastic album. While 2006 has been topped of with a tour through Australia, the first Trentemøller highlight in 2007 will be the release of „Moan“, the second single from the album. For the a-side Trentemøller himself created a brilliant remix of the „Moan“-Vocal Version, which has been released on the Bonus-CD of the limited edition album only. Trentemøller managed to keep the mystic melancholic vibe of the track featuring the vocals of danish talent Ane Trolle, but adds punshy drums, screaming synths and some more guitars to guarantee serious dancefloor-action. Radioslave aka Matt Edwards aka Rekid aka Quite Village, on of the most in demand remix artists at the moment (Moby, Booka Shade, Justice, Peace Division, Pet Shop Boys, Joakim etc) contributed a great remix on the flipside. Slowly building over reduced drumpatterns their mix culminates into a manic wall of sound. While Poker Flat 81 features the vocal versions of both Trentemøller‘s and Radioslve‘s remixes, the instrumental and dub versions will be released simultaneously

Gabriels - Bloodline
This four track EP features the LA band’s single’s Blame and the EP’s title track Bloodline,
Quickly finding fans in the likes of Elton John, Celeste, Paul Weller, Benji B, and Gilles Peterson, the band should soon find plenty more on a record that could soundtrack a David Lynch epic such is its drama and suspenseful, late-night orchestral ruminations. Capped by Lusk’s voice, a weapon that swoops through the octaves breathlessly, Gabriels have that rare ability to make you re-evaluate music, and what it can do, in a heartbeat.
Whilst Lusk provides the wow factor with that ridiculous larynx, Gabriels are very much a close-knit trio. Producer, keyboardist (and full-time video director) Ryan Hope hails from Sunderland but calls LA home. Fellow producer-composer and violinist Ari Balouzian, a man with endless musical projects on the go at any one time, gives Gabriels’ songs a real ‘feel’ to them.
Sultry, soulful mood music certainly isn’t the band’s modus operandi, with debut track If Love & Hate In A Different Time having originally identified Gabriels as a loose-limbed, soul-stirring funk and gospel-flecked odyssey. But this experimental EP should paint an altogether more rounded idea of where Gabriels are at… !

Definition, Night Talk - Definition, Night Talk - Tempest
Following their last year’s club hit Clockwork (released on Adriatique‘s Siamese imprint), played
by the likes of Dixon, Trikk and Adriatique, Definition and Night Talk went back to the studio
together and cooked up another storm.
Tracklist 12":
1) Definition, Night Talk – Into The Void
2) Definition, Night Talk - Tempest
Into the void hits from second one. Strong beats lead the way into this dreamlike soundscape,
where metallic drum elements and effortless reverb tails take us on a journey. We get lost in a
slow build and an unassuming bass-line drives us home, until the track collapses just to hit twice
as hard coming back in. Dreamy vocals float over dirty synth lines, melodies that feel familiar
guide the way to continuous build ups, where we can’t help but move our bodies to the gritty,
thumping bass-line pushing us forward relentlessly.
Tempest is all about the beat. Simple, yet endearing, it reels us in and guides us on an endless
rise where fragile synth swells and powerful percussion elements tease our ears. High-pitched
glimmers dance across the soundscape with ease. A track that rises again and again, yet never
quite implodes in-between. Instead it builds, in the most natural way, skilfully and exquisitely,
whilst sirens add a well-rounded urgency, that’s hard to resist.

4. SHORT INFO:
Electronic music visionary Rodriguez Jr. presents his third album BLISSS on the revered
Berlin-based label Mobilee, set for release on both vinyl and digital this April. The LP sees his
creative imagination run free and results in his most inspired work to date.
Rodriguez Jr. has championed a captivating sound of melodic house and techno that cannot be
pigeonholed, his vast experience of electronica making him the world-renowned producer and live
performer he is today. In 2017 he released the stunning Baobab album, the follow up to his
impressive debut Bittersweet and BLISSS is the next exciting chapter to be unveiled. Inspired by the
deep rooted and wide ranging influences of Olivier Mateu including the literary atmospheres of
Modiano and monochromatic paintings of Pierre Soulages, BLISSS rewards fans both old and new
ARTIST: RODRIGUEZ JR.
TITLE: BLISSS (Limited Re-Press)
LABEL: MOBILEE RECORDSalike. The album also sees a new pop influenced side of Rodriguez Jr. on two tracks, collaborating
with Nouvelle Vague singer Liset Alea, creating beautiful moments of serene disruption.
“Amusing myself and not overthinking is a commitment in itself, especially today when dance music
has become something so extremely formatted; at times even taking itself too seriously. This album is
a decision to enjoy myself in the studio and use the palette of different ingredients and creative
methods of working that I’ve collected over the past 25 years. I was trying to not run after the apex of
an idea, but rather to let it take me somewhere else, this state of free creative consciousness is itself
a moment of Blisss.” Rodriguez Jr.

Mad Rider - 83rfvz
After 10 years of Freakadelle Recordings and an even longer existence of the eponymous association, the time has come for the Salzburg collective to make a change and release its first record under their new imprint vierundvierzig. It also marks the first solo release by Mad Rider named "fmrann8", which contains 7 tracks that originated during the pandemic and were finalized after the opening of the clubs. These two different states - undecided whether we want to dance or go into hiding – are not only reflected in the music, they are also made visible in the cover design, which can appear colourful and monotonous at the same time. On the one hand, you can hear the longing for long club nights from a time when going to the club was not possible. On the other hand, the deceleration holds us as if we were sitting on fluffy clouds, not knowing what Mad Rider's modular synthesizer, fed with unconventional drums and field recordings, or the future will bring next.

Dave Anderson - Square Dance
The first full release in 15 years from Dave Anderson. One half of Otomi (lauded by Carl Craig, Recloose, Chateau Flight) and also responsible for the “Stronghold” EP on Ferox, “Downstairs Groove” sees Anderson bring his smelt of Detroit, Chicago and Glasgow right up to date with four diverse but cohesive tracks.
Ranging from minimal claustrophobic house of “Downstairs Groove” to dissociated spacey techno of “Distant Signal” on the A-side, then the B-side with the striking, melancholic strident house of “Edge Damage”, then closing with the bouncing elastic bassline of “Square Dance”.
200 copies, hand-stamped and hand-numbered.
“Very good EP – I’m mightily impressed. Really classy” – Russ Gabriel (Ferox, Soma)
“Really cool – has that feeling of experimentation and groove that techno had in it’s best days” – John Tejada (Palette, Kompakt)
“This is going to be a future classic” – Lee Holman (Ferox, Kawl, KSR)
