But already my desire and my will were being turned like a wheel, all at one speed, by the Love which moves the sun and the other stars. More

Edanticonf's music feels perfectly crafted for the brooding atmospheric venues he so often performs in. Both the aforementioned adjectives can be attributed to his style of techno too, one that places the focus less on the technical side and more onthe human one, aiming to reflect his emotions and state of being through the hazy soundscapes that draw influence from the natural scenery around him.

Wolfskuil Ltd returns after a hiatus of a year with a heavy hitter from Italian sound designer Edanticonf. This vinyl only release is a very personal statement from an artist known for his deep, dreamy and dare we say trancey take on electronic music. He made his mark in the music scene through pivotal releases on Silent Season and M_Rec Ltd. His profile fits perfectly as Wolfskuil’s Limited sublabel is dedicated to left of centre releases aimed at leftfield dancefloors. 1989.1 is a perfect setbuilder or afterhour anthem with it’s lush string arrangements and offbeat groove. It’s counterpart 1989.2 is more meaty especially in the sub domain and could offer a brilliant peaktime relieve for more experienced floors.

Here's the inaugural release in a new series from the archives of the late great engineer & producer Philip Smart. Philip's resume is impeccable - early friend and collaborator of Augustus Pablo, radio host and dj, first apprentice of King Tubby, and founder, producer and engineer at one of the major reggae studios of New York City history, HC&F. Many years back our brother label Goldshop did a series of 45 reissues of the dancehall classics from Philip's Eclipse label. We always wanted to go deeper, but time moves fast, and unfortunately, Philip left us in 2014. But everything in due course, and now with his estate we've gone thru the archives to assemble a fantastic series of releases. This first release is a must - produced by Philip during his time as engineer at Tubby's studio, this is an awesome rockers style take on the moody Paragons classic. The flip features a classic blueprint mid 70s Tubby's style dub, HPF in effect with the first Prince, Philip Smart at the helm. Originally released thru Brooklyn's legendary Keith's record shop back around the time it was recorded. More

Mace. continues his path of sound experimentation to dark and throbbing scenarios with this first EP entitled "The Heavens Are Already Theirs". After the electro cinematic tape "The Metamorphosis Through Dreams" (Further Records 2013) and the experimental/dark statement "The Wealth Of Nations" (Eclipse Music 2013) "The Heavens Are Already Theirs" looks like a set of tracks chronologically different from each other. The mixture of the elements combines the slow-tempo gloomy rhythms of tracks such as "Alcol" and "La Stasi" with the anxyolitic mood from the B sides tracks "Ballad" and "Il Vecchio Della Montagna".

Following his recent collaborations with Ai Records, Electronique.it, and Icon of Desire, passEnger finally comes back to Eclipsemusic to release a new 12” vinyl record, titled ‘Chord Abuse EP’. The release takes off with “Solar Flare”, one of passEnger’s most airy, housey and positive works till now, with its melodic sequence and uplifting atmosphere. On the same side of the 12”, “Surface Debris” de-construct the classic techno elements to build an abstract, moody, hyper-cynetic slice of futuristic techno. On side B “Solar Flare” gets then a special remix treatment by Stephen Brown, one of the most personal and notable European Techno producers: the result is a tight, swinging rework of tiny slices of the original, turning the track into a classic techno builder..

Eclipsemusic is pleased to announce the sixth release introducing the talented canadian producer Matt Thibideau. He is known in Toronto, Detroit, Montreal, & Berlin for having performed with the ikes of Mike Huckaby, Akufen, Richie Hawtin andreleasing music on labels such as Mike Shannon's Cynosure and Sub-Static with hisnew wave-industrial band Repair.. Matt has a very personal approach to making music that refuses to use software instruments and give free expression to his unlimited passion for the sound of his analog synthesizers. He records directly through a mixer playing his live instruments. This particular feature shines through his deep and warm sound! "When It's Time" is a typical techouse style track with a solid structure consisting of a straight and bouncy rhythm, deep bass with futuristic chords and techy arpeggiators running over it. The track starts very deep develops into a more raw sound that leaves no survivors on the dance floor! "Holding On To You" is a much more dub-oriented track This time we have ambient and rarefied atmosphere which develops progressively over a repetitive bass line and drum machine rhythm with a mixture of chords and pads typically inspired by the Basic Channel sound. The title track "Night Drive" (licensed from Matt's Obsolete Components record label) is a masterpiece of deep house music vaguely reminiscent of many mid-nineties works from labels like Guidance Recordings and Wave Music, that will become an instant classic for all deep-house heads. Very melodic and groovy bass line with a mixture of pads, reverberated chords and many delayeffected elements. 7 minutes of pure deepness.
