Short Info:
Flashback - Frankfurt am Main in the 1990s: Matthias Vogt writes record reviews for Groove magazine, works as a DJ in various clubs and studies jazz piano. His first releases as a producer are already on the street. When one of his favourite labels, for which he had written numerous reviews, Force Inc, opened a house sub-label (Force Inc US), Matthias submitted two of his own tracks to the label. The "DJ Matt" EP entitled "Die Tiefe / Augen zu" is released. The two completely analogue-produced tracks mark the beginning of Matthias' journey into the realms of deep house music.
A few months later, Matthias Vogt's career takes off, with a move within the same Frankfurt corridor, from Force Inc. to INFRACom! and the launch of his projects [re:jazz], Motorcitysoul and Matthias Vogt Trio. Cut. Today: A social media post drew the attention of Berlin DJ, producer and label maker Johannes Albert to the story surrounding the 1999 release. Now, 25 years later, "Augen zu/Die Tiefe" is being completely remastered from the original DAT tape by Gyso Hilger (Nektarium Darmstadt) and reissued - looking and sounding great - as a 10" on Frank Music.

Matthias Vogt - Vinyl Bonus- Une Nuit Exceptionnelle
ECO-FRIENDLY 100% RECYCELT VINYL & PACKAGING.
Matthias Vogt ([re:jazz], Motorcitysoul) verbindet auf seinem neuen Album "Pianissimo" großartige Musik mit aktuellen gesellschaftspolitischen Einstellungen und Themen. In diesem Kontext wird Musik relevant! Pianissimo bedeutet nicht nur, sehr leise zu spielen, sondern auch sehr intensiv zu spielen. Seine Begleiter sind Demian Kappenstein (ÄTNA & Masaa) am Schlagzeug & Gitarrist Daniel Stelter (Sing meinen Song, TV-Total Heavytones). Das Vinyl inkl. der Umverpackung wird auf komplett recycelter Basis von INFRACom! produziert.
"At the eleventh hour" bedeutet im angloamerikanischen Raum so viel wie "Fünf vor Zwölf". Und mit seinem zwölften Album "Pianissimo" gibt Matthias Vogt erstmals ein klares politisches Statement ab, das nicht in Konkurrenz, sondern in Symbiose mit seinen wohlgesetzten Noten und dem stilvoll experimentellen und prononciert eklektischen Electro-Jazz-Sound existiert. Wie das geht? Es ist kompliziert und doch ganz einfach, gehaltvoll, spannend und dabei geradezu organisch gewachsen.
Am Anfang war das Piano. Matthias Vogt hatte in vielen Monaten der pandemiebedingten Club- und Livemusik-Pause eine, wie er selbst betont, "verinnerlichte Musik" komponiert. Bald war ihm aber klar, dass die Musik mehr wollte, als es die elegischen, zuweilen bis an die Neoklassik heranwogenden Jazzklänge zunächst vermuten ließen. Mit dem Gitarristen Daniel Stelter und Schlagzeuger Demian Kappenstein fand er zwei kongeniale Mitstreiter, um aus seinen inneren Monologen machtvolle musikalische Manifeste zu gestalten. So wurde etwa aus der melancholischen "Elegy" ein augenzwinkernd schiebender Dub-Reggae-Groove, aus den Molltönen von "Down to Earth" ein wohlgefälliger Downtempo Vibe zum Mitwippen. Und mit dem Video-Designer Sebastian Rieker war das Band-Projekt beinahe komplett.
"Everything in our lives is political" (Asterico, Japan)
Gedanklich trieben Matthias Vogt jenseits des Studios ganz andere Themen um: Klimawandel und Naturkatastrophen, die Abholzung von Wäldern für umstrittene Autobahnen und Braunkohlebergbau sowie Veganismus als persönliche Strategie, Tierleid zu verhindern und den eigenen, ökologischen Fußabdruck zu reduzieren. Also führte er zu diesen Themen Interviews mit Menschen aus seinem Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis - Kreative, Künstler*innen, Aktivist*innen und Musiker*inen, die ähnlich ticken wie er selbst und mit deren Stimmen er seinen eigenen Gedanken Ausdruck und Form verleihen konnte:
"Everything in our lives is political", sagt die in Hiroshima geborene "Rico", eigentlich Asterico: "Let's just put that straight: Everything you do, everything you see, everything you live in is political." Und "Doing nothing is not defensible", stellt Tom Szirtes aus London in "Music for Interviews" mit ruhiger, aber auch besorgter Stimme fest "Now is the time that we have to do something", spricht Danny Howells, DJ aus London, über den elegischen Soundtrack "Amdu", "otherwise we have no chance." Auch die deutsche Umweltaktivistin Pippi sowie Daphne Fernberger, Tänzerin aus New York, und ihr Mann, der französische Musiker und Tänzer Ulysse verleihen mit ihren authentischen Statements der abstrakten Emotionalität der Musik eine tiefe Erdung.
Asterico, Tom, Danny, Pippi, Ulysses und Daphne repräsentieren wie die Musiker Vogt, Stelter und Kappenstein eine neue Art kreatives Weltbürgertum, das Lichtjahre vom materialistischen Hedonismus der 1980er und 1990er und beinahe ebensoweit von der ungezügelten Technikgläubigkeit entfernt ist, die seit den Nullerjahren des neuen Jahrtausends vor allem in den USA und Asien, aber auch in Europa die merkwürdigsten und zum Teil hoch gefährlichen Blüten treibt. Aber passt so viel politisch-philosophischer Gehalt, so viel engagierter Aktivismus kombiniert mit konzentriert-experimenteller Musikalität auf die doch recht überkommene Form eines Longplayers mit 15 bzw. 16 Titlen auf dem Vinyl ? Die kurze Antwort lautet: Ja.
Die lange Version: "Pianissimo" passt genau wegen seiner Vielstimmigkeit in diese von Pandemie und Naturkatastrophen und dem erschütterten Glauben an die Lösbarkeit aller Zivilisationsprobleme gezeichneten Zeit. "Vielstimmig" ist "Pianissimo" auch in dem Sinne, dass dieses schön gestaltete Gefäß die ganze Bandbreite vom dystopischen "Lamento" bis hin zu den hoffnungsvoll groovenden Tönen einer "Une Nuit Exceptionelle" zu fassen vermag, ohne zu zerbrechen. Es wäre zu simpel nach einer einzigen, verbindenden Message zu fragen, nur so viel sei vielleicht erlaubt: Es ist Fünf vor Zwölf, allerhöchste Zeit zum Aufstehen... und wenn du erstmal aufgestanden bist, um deine Stimme zu erheben, kannst du auch gleich ein bisschen dazu tanzen.

Matthias Vogt - Mind Traveller (Losoul Remix)
2
Matthias Vogt - Shimmering Sea (Dj Jauche Rework)
May saw the release of Matthias Vogt's extraordinary new album: Pianissimo. A sound journey based on piano compositions, enriched with guitar sounds, drum and percussion parts, electronic influences and snippets of interviews with environmental activists.
Music that is very unique and cannot be directly assigned to any genre.
Two club mixes of Pianissimo tracks were created, which are now released on Flaneurecordings:
The Losoul mix of "The Mind Traveller" is a twisted dub that is cleverly teasing original elements again and again and finally boils up in a break. Peter Kremeier aka Losoul, producer legend from Frankfurt's Playhouse environment is himself a traveler in electronic music and takes us here on his very own internalized trip.
Flaneur boss DJ Jauche takes on "Shimmering Sea" and works close to the original, but refines the track masterfully for the deep dancefloors. A sound that works great for open airs as well as clubs. Very soulful, crisp and stylistically confident.

Short Info:
Matthias Vogt is back on Polytone with two strong original tracks, plus legendary producer Carl Finlow is adding his remix magic.

The B-Side is all about "Crevasse", a timeless beauty - we are in love with this Matthias Vogt trademark sound.

Frankfurt’s Matthias Vogt has assembled quite the back catalogue over the past decade, from his timeless work as one half of Motorcitysoul on Aus Music and Freerange Records, to the six albums released by his popular jazz ensemble [re:jazz]. Matthias now teams up with London label Anjunadeep for a string of releases, kicking off with the ‘Seven Summits EP’. Featured on the #1 iTunes Dance compilation ‘Anjunadeep 07’, title track ‘Seven Summits’ is a wistful trip through mystic melodies and haunting soundscapes, deftly blending delicate production with raw emotion. Growing from sparse strings and jaunty keys, ‘Schwarzbach’ is another piece of subtle melodic house, flowing through elegant atmospherics before swelling to an understated crescendo. ‘Can We All Be Still’ takes a leftfield turn; a beautiful downtempo track built around a simple stabbing bassline and ethereal meditative vocals from Pete Josef.

Tracklist 12": A Maintain 7:39 min B1 Maintain (Bleak Scene Rework) 6:44 min B2 Maintain (Vince Watson Remix) 6:19 min
Info:
This is Matthias Vogt's third installment on Polytone Recordings!
With "Maintain" he proves distinct feeling for musicality once more: As Vogt is an accomplished Jazz pianist, he is able to move easily between uplifting drive and harmonic substructures.The flip side deals with the welcoming of two illustrious remix artists to Polytone's roster: Bleak and Vince Watson.
Bleak is renowned for having his musical output released on labels like Delsin and Deeply Rooted House. On remix duties Bleak drops hell of a Detroit vehicle. Based on significant drum grooves his remix will ultimately shake the dancefloor to its foundations.
Vince Watson's discography goes back to the mid-nineties and we vainly tried to keep track of his enormous musical output. Maintaining the spirit and the vibe of Vogt's original tune Vince Watson takes the original track and turns it into a string and pad driven sonic exploration perfectly fitting for Polytone's eclectic approach.

Matthias Vogt, - Stillach
The musical heavyweight Matthias Vogt is back on Polytone. "Copying the future" has the potential to be a classic. A track with character and a high recognition value: hypnotic rave stabs and uplifting chords combined with a driving groove will send shivers down each true music lovers spine. "Copying the future" is delivering deja vu´s without copying the past - a great track with a past and a future, deeply rooted in the here and now. "Stillach" claps its way into every listeners ear. The B side of the EP named after a mountain stream in the Allgäu is calm and also powerful with a slow, minimal and very tight groove. Vogt is going deeper!

Matthias Vogt, - Together As One
supported by: Nick Curly, Anja
Schneider, Samuel L Session, Steve
Bug, Will Saul, Milton Jackson ,..
After releases from Drei Farben House and Paulo Olarte,
Polytone is joined by Matthias Vogt. Being a member of
Motorcitysoul (together with Frankfurt's House legend CRock),
Matthias Vogt has been teaching lessons in
deepness for years now. In his solo works Vogt's profound
education as a Jazz musician is just as present. Thus,
"Together As One" is carried by wonderfully deep chords,
which are accentuated by a contrapuntal bassline. A
classic male vocal highlights the soulfulness even more
and turns this track into a marvellous Deephouse affair.

Short Info:
Iron Curtis and Johannes Albert return to orbit with their highly anticipated Moon IV, the next chapter in their acclaimed lunar album series. Building on over a decade of collaboration and the cosmic groundwork in Moon I, II, and III, this fourth instalment is a testament to their ever-evolving artistry and expansive vision.
Released on their beloved Frank Music imprint, Moon IV sees the duo starring an 11-track journey that once again defies genres, challenges conventions, and charts a vivid course through the electronic cosmos.
From the warm opener "Void Gathering" and wistful melodies of "Silverclub" to the driving rhythms of "Sounds (The Feels)," which echoes the relentless pulse of NYC Post-Disco, Moon IV encapsulates the duo's signature blend of moods and eras.
"Club L'Avenir" & "Daso" serve up euphoric moments with a nod to the French Touch, while the ambient vignette "Into Somethin' (Interlude)" calms you down again. Electro cuts like "Pipeline" are reminiscent of earlier works in the Moon album series, and new paths are forged when the two are exploring Balearic Pop Music (BPM) territory in "Ohne Dich".

Short Info:
Iron Curtis and Johannes Albert return to orbit with their highly anticipated Moon IV, the next chapter in their acclaimed lunar album series. Building on over a decade of collaboration and the cosmic groundwork in Moon I, II, and III, this fourth instalment is a testament to their ever-evolving artistry and expansive vision.
Released on their beloved Frank Music imprint, Moon IV sees the duo starring an 11-track journey that once again defies genres, challenges conventions, and charts a vivid course through the electronic cosmos.
From the warm opener "Void Gathering" and wistful melodies of "Silverclub" to the driving rhythms of "Sounds (The Feels)," which echoes the relentless pulse of NYC Post-Disco, Moon IV encapsulates the duo's signature blend of moods and eras.
"Club L'Avenir" & "Daso" serve up euphoric moments with a nod to the French Touch, while the ambient vignette "Into Somethin' (Interlude)" calms you down again.

A1 Biesmans & Johannes Albert “Sunshine Inc.” (06:32)
Short Info:
LIMITED TO 100 COPIES: After having cake & coffee at least twice a week studio neighbors Joris Biesmans & Johannes Albert teamed up again. Remember "Luft"? This time they got a little inspired by the sun and even more - the legendary sunshine blotters from California. As a result, the duo hammered out a tune that you will dance to all summer and beyond: Sunshine Inc. is fabricated out of concrete chords, the bass was welded, and the lead is still dripping with sweat. Add a little acid here and there and BOOM we're off to space! Before you ask: Tripping is more than okay.

Short Info:
Sharing a mutual love for Dance Music in all its shapes and forms please welcome Philipp Lauer & Johannes Albert for the first time together. These Bucketheads overcame the franko-hessian border and give us a 3-Tracker on the A side that is "Based On Boss". The title track swims in 909 Drums, vocal samples shine through, and organ chords lead the way. You will be moving your feet with "Four 44", still all about a basement, a red light and lots of feeling. Rounding things up with the loopy powers of "Posh-O-Rama", if you are in need of soft breaks with a lovely twist. Now who's the boss?
Speaking B sides: Hamburg-Moenchengladbach-London? Probably not your everyday route. Three pillars in their own leagues team up for "Survivor": Boris Dlugosch, Marc Romboy and C.A.R. on vocal duties. Created in times of lockdowns and standstills "Survivor" is a midtempo stomper, slightly dark yet extra moving. Clocking in at 110 BPM a percussive beat is haunted by C.A.R.'s voice and a hypnotic robot bassline. Occuring melodies and pads do the rest. Remix time? Oh yes! Spicing and speeding things up a little the Johannes Albert remix arrives with additional chords, gated snare drums and maybe even happiness.

Short Info:
Originally born in days of a global lockdown, Johannes Albert gets ready for a second round of Ambient music. "Spessart II" follows the footprints of its predecessor and keeps things mostly quiet yet very thrilling at the same time. Starting off with "Frischling" the beat maker takes us on a calm synth trip through his home forest Spessart, using wild boar - Wildschwein - vocabulary all the way. Sparks of early Downbeat ("Gewaff"), even Trip Hop ("Überläufer") and instrumental Sade ("Leitbache") occur in the well balanced 8 track album. Johannes' dad Rudi adds to the vibe playing the Jagdhorn on "Keiler". If you like the band "The Art Of Noise" you will most likely love this too.

Short Info:
Steering his dance label, Frank Music, all the way through the last decade, Johannes Albert would like to welcome a bunch of new and old friends for its 10 years anniversary. Berlin’s Amount steers the ship into contemporary disco waters with his „Dphrase". All hands on deck please! The Captain Of Your Heart is more than a good friend. He is the boss from Zürichsee actually. We „L.ove“ his Synth Pop all the way. Darmstadt’s finest Levitation Venue are back with the calm yet groovy „Everything’s Good“. Now we set sail for the flipside. High waves and a storm comes up on the floor when Johannes drops his „Dynamo“. A very 90s informed rave affair! Sir Iron Curtis takes over the realm and shows a little respect for classic Electro. We travel to „Münster West“. The sea calms again with the bittersweet symphony of Max Lessig’s „Make me cry“.

Short Info:
Steering his dance label, Frank Music, all the way through the last decade, Johannes Albert would like to welcome a bunch of new and old friends for its 10 years anniversary. Berlin’s Amount steers the ship into contemporary disco waters with his „Dphrase". All hands on deck please! The Captain Of Your Heart is more than a good friend. He is the boss from Zürichsee actually. We „L.ove“ his Synth Pop all the way. Darmstadt’s finest Levitation Venue are back with the calm yet groovy „Everything’s Good“. Now we set sail for the flipside. High waves and a storm comes up on the floor when Johannes drops his „Dynamo“. A very 90s informed rave affair! Sir Iron Curtis takes over the realm and shows a little respect for classic Electro. We travel to „Münster West“. The sea calms again with the bittersweet symphony of Max Lessig’s „Make me cry“. We reach safe havens. To the next 10!

A3 Some Kind Of Electric feat. Miela (04:03)
B1 Cutoff Freak – Johannes Albert Acid Dub (05:14)
B2 Some Kind Of Electric – Johannes Albert Kind Of Dub (05:20)
Short Info:
Kayroy is back! The charismatic gentleman from Melbourne gives us three brand new songs. First, we have “Cutoff Freak” with R.P. Downie on vocal duties. Yes, we shed crocodile tears for a thousand years. The David Byrne-esque vocals perfectly add to Kayroy’s mid-tempo aussie p-funk. Last year’s “Identification Unknown” feat. Miela also sees a vinyl feature finally.
Now imagine a late summer night. You ride your local sunset boulevard in your red convertible and turn on the stereo. They play „Some Kind Of Electric“ on the radio. Kayroy & Miela on the microphone make you feel good, they make you laugh, they make you cry. All at the same time. Irresistible grooves, heartwarming melodies and that voice. Now let this summer night last forever.
Label boss Johannes couldn’t resist and bangs the tracks into a more club-styled direction on the B-side. There is an “Acid Dub” and “Kind Of Dub”. Your choice.

Short Info:
The Spessart with its presence of extended woodlands is widely known for its legends, ghost stories and fairytales. Thus, the tale of Snow White may have originated in the Spessart heartlands, with the town of Lohr pushing forward a substantial case for being the home and inspiration for the main characters and elements like the magic mirror. Now let us return to innocence: Spessartraeuber Johannes Albert goes beatless for the first time over this 8 tracker. You may hear the rhythm of nature. Crystal clear bell sounds sit next to warm pads, bird song and even his own voice add to the peaceful piece. Heavenly strings approach guilt free piano sounds while blameless digital choirs whistle along. Music for dreams basically. File under New Age. Are you in?

Round two for David Jackson! Just born in the heydays of the "Airport Disco" David provides us with the future of Italo Disco and beyond. Mr. Jackson makes music for mirror balls, strobe lights, fog machines and Richard Long sound systems. The title track "Airport Disco" is a heater at first sight. It will make you whistle along or go bang straightaway. "Oohhyyee" is a modern piece of uplifting, breaky & airy UK vibe and hits just the right notes and spots. Some folks claim the only good system is a soundsystem. Well "In My System" appears with powerful synth chords and yes, believe me you want to join this system too. For the advanced customer (vinyl only that is) you will find "Berlin" on B2. A bit of Schlager-Disco with a laissez-faire message. Another top artwork courtesy of Julian Bender. Now get into magic!

Ricky Razu is one of Belgium's new breeds of rising house producers who come from a vast background of jazz, boogie, hip-hop and disco and through the amalgamation of these various styles, he is quickly making a name for himself.
Ricky's swing is quite unique, he has been putting his own twist and interpretation on the regular house track by joining the dots between yesterday’s golden era classics and today’s club bangers. As one of Houseum's mainstays, he has also built up a solid presence behind the decks, becoming a regular player in the Belgian and international house scene. During the past years, Ricky’s prolific output has also allowed his sounds to propagate all over the globe, which culminated in a worldwide repertoire of gigs from Europe to the US, South America and Asia. The man has also garnered support from the likes of Jeremy Underground, Bellaire and Subjoi, to name a few, and with his new projects in the pipeline, the future is looking bright for him.
Get transported to a parallel dimension with the title track of Ricky Razu’s new EP ‘Cosmic Waves’. This spacey yet club-oriented track blends floaty arpeggios with a dark rumbling bass. But what truly sets "Cosmic Waves" apart is its sharp and distinct lead melody, guaranteed to linger in your head long after the first listen. In Ricky’s known style, the arrangement sounds complete yet never over-loaded, resulting in a track that is effective and easy to love.

Tracklist:
A1. Boli Boli – Extended Mix
A2. Boli Boli – Dub-strumental
B1. I See – Balkan Bass Tool
B2. I See – Demo Mix
German Powerhouse Labels Public Possession and Running Back Team up to bring you a nostalgic tribute to 80s Disco-Synth-Pop and Balkan Self-Pity. In a blend of cultural nostalgia and contemporary resonance, be-friended artists Krystal Klear and La Raf are set to release their first collaborative record titled "Boli Boli" (It hurts, it hurts) this autumn. The record is a steamy homage to the 80s disco-synth-pop. La Raf’s vocals equipped with Krystal Klear’s sound remind us of the bittersweet memories of the bygone yet still beloved music-era from former Yugoslavia.
The song came to life during a spontaneous creative outburst when Krystal and Raf reunited in a studio in London last year. Singer La Raf, a Croatian native based in Berlin, channeled the raw emotions of a not so recent break-up regret into the lyrics of "Boli Boli."
Infused with Balkan self-pity, the song delivers a very personal experience of pain and regret, not as mere sorrow but as a confident, joyful indulgence in one's own grief. This emotional depth finds a perfect counterpart in Krystal Klear’s talent for crafting melodies
that evoke both happiness and melancholia. Together, they have created a track that is as introspective as it is danceable, offering its listeners a glimpse into a world where sadness is embraced with a sense of pride and joy, capturing the cultural tapestry of the Balkan region.

that evoke both happiness and melancholia. Together, they have created a track that is as introspective as it is danceable, offering its listeners a glimpse into a world where sadness is embraced with a sense of pride and joy, capturing the cultural tapestry of the Balkan region.

In an unprecedented international collaboration, Energy Exchange Records presents 'The Napoli Exchange' - the brainchild of Energy Exchange Records co-founders, Lewis and Ziggy, joining forces with producer and label boss Federico Gallotti (Tartelet / La Scimmia), the project was inspired by numerous visits to Naples, allured by the mediterranean breeze and of course the underground disco and funk forged by labels such as Early Sounds and Periodica Records. This meeting of minds created an opportunity to build bridges from the historic Italian city to the broader european scene of club crossover music.

Space Ghost - Emotional Healer (Nelson Of The East Forever Dub)
Pink Marbled Vinyl!
!Return to Space Ghost’s celebrated Dance Planet LP with six summer-ready remixes by Central, Dirk 81,
Jarren, Nelson of the East and Space Ghost himself, releasing June 10.
The Oakland-native’s romantic and empowering house sound has enjoyed a growing audience made
up of fans and tastemakers alike. The remix package comes courtesy of friends and label affiliates, each
lending their touch to Space Ghost’s work.
Capitalizing on the inherent warmth in the Bay Area- artist’s sound, Tartelet label head Dirk 81 subtly threads a slow, rolling breakbeat into ‘Deep’, channeling 90s RnB and Balearic. Danish underground powerhouse and Help/Regelbau label affiliate Central injects some up-tempo garage house energy into ‘Be Yourself’ – without losing the swirling romanticism of the original. And LA-based producer Jarren, neighbor to Space Ghost on UK label Apron, leans in to the punchy Lately Bass and turns up the swing on his own version of the track.
Space Ghost comes back to ‘Emotional Healer’ and creates a pointedly club-tooled ‘Dance Mix’ version
with a panoply of 90s touchstones delivered in the classiest of ways. To finish, Nelson Of The East’s ‘Forever Dub’ of the track adds a sharp and snappy strain of modern steppas.
Releasing June 10, the vinyl comes in two versions; black standard and a limited edition marbled pink/black.

With Pharoah Sanders’ blessing, we present the definitive, remastered version of PHAROAH, his seminal record from 1977, in an embossed 2 LP box set. Alongside the original record, we’re including two previously unreleased live performances of his masterpiece, “Harvest Time," and a 24-page booklet with rarely seen photographs and ephemera, which tell the story of this album and this moment in Pharoah’s life in a way that has never been done before—including through interviews with many of the participants and a conversation with Pharoah himself.
For those of you who already know this record, then you know that its origin story is as elusive as Pharoah was about everything Pharoah. It was born out of a misunderstanding between him and the India Navigation producer Bob Cummins, and was recorded when he was at a crossroads in his career with an unlikely crew. Among them was a guitarist who was also a spiritual guru, an organist who would go on to co-write and produce “The Message,” and a classically trained pianist—his wife at the time, Bedria Sanders—who played the harmonium despite never having seen one. At times ambient and serene, at others funky and modal, PHAROAH radically departed from his earlier work. And it became beloved.
Tracklist:
Pharoah
A1. Harvest Time
B1. Love Will Find a Way
B2. Memories of Edith Johnson
Harvest Time Live 1977
C1. Harvest Time Live – Version 1
D1. Harvest Time Live – Version 2

Sweetart Vinyl. Originally released in 2004, MF DOOM's MM.FOOD is hailed as a classic | hip-hop album full of inventive production, brilliant wordplay, and unique themes. Celebraled for its seamless blend of humor, wit, and social commentary, the album ushers listeners into a bizarre world af food-related metaphors, painting a bitterly comedic portrait of a life tainted by vice, violence, and jealousy. It was a brilliant and novel concept that gave DOOM plenty of room to explore the album's subjects. Throughout MM..FOOD, DOOM embeds complex ideas within seemingly simple narratives. Album opener "Beef Rapp' is a multi-pronged metaphor reminding listeners of the dangers involved in the glorification of conflict, especially within the rap game. "Hoe Cakes" borrows its name from the sweet, hot water cornmeal patties, which he uses as a symbol to rhyme about indulgence and excess. Continuing the motif, DOOM uses the Madlib-produced "One Beer" to fold layers of depth about escapism and ego, while the popular "Rapp Snitch Knishes" critiques the sell-incrimination and contradictory behaviors of some rappers. Overall, MM.FOOD is both a social commentary and a piece of social satire, showcasing MF DOOM'S ability to blend serious themes with his unique, playful lyrical style. In celebration of the album's 20th anniversary, MM.FOOD has been repackaged with all new artwork by Sam Rodriguez!
