Lux Rec shifts again its attention to Greece. ???´s?p? (PROSOPO) is June's newest alias,and means Face -disturbed microcosm where to experiment with different machines, unconventional textures and rhythms. The result is as uncomfortable as it gets, arid desires, despair concealed with cold resonating motives. We do not celebrate joy. A fast descent into a deserted heart. A feverish feeling, much like when it is warm and one still shivers. Annoyed greek Gods playing tricks on humans.

Psychic Decolonization delivers four clairvoyant tracks for those who are willing to unravel them, don't expect a happy end though.
The first release of Lux Rec this year comes from the infamous enfant terrible, synthesizers maker, known for his obscure statements, Gavin Russom. The man needs no further introduction, he's quite a presence, although a ghostly one. As in those urban myths his music reflects all that is haunting, secretive, unspoken More

Lux Rec enters its fifth year of existence. A time of adventures in electronic sounds, exploring the margins and the darkest corners. To celebrate all victories and failures Cosmo & Faber compiled this release, the number 23, collecting material from old acquaintances and musicians that are new to the label. The Dying Lights is a collection of tracks that reflects the path Lux Rec followed these past years, acid, low-fi, analog rudimental techno, melodies of pain and sorrow. Six tracks on two vinyls, from light to dark, to accompany you, soothe and haunt you, to the only known end. Dust. More

And so Lux Rec continue to reach out for all those ephemeral, eery noises which are so dear to them. Unlit corners on half emptied dance floors. Give in to suffer, loss and sadness. Embrace it. Believe... Lux Rec's first record for 2015 is a dark and moody affair coming from Momentform, a French musician that has no fear to plunge into obscurity, melancholy, a somber look into memories that are too painful to forget. Yet, he transformed all those postcards from the past into listening and dance material. Our last dance together. Turn off the lights when leaving. More

Looking into the distance is always a frightening experience. Over fences, beyond the known territory, savage grounds await. More

Deep and broody one on LUX! An introspective outer galaxy ride...TIP for the IFM heads!! More

Lux Rec continue their endless research at the margins of music, what is underground, at every latitude, to find rough gems and bring them to light. After a series of releases which explore Techno in various ways, they turned their attention to another field. That of the Cold Electronics and New Wave movement, and French musical existentialism. Cold Colors comes from Bordeaux, France. To Lux Rec he is the best expression of and a new take on that type of music. A sense of solitude is the first reaction to his music. Melodic longings for something that is not there, unreachable. Four songs to depict a hopeless stare into emptiness. Shadows of a love long gone. More

Stefan Blomeier took a trip into the unknown. A fast drugged out train to nowhere..... (how pleasant ...!) This unexpected leap brought us back hazy resonant memories. Flashes of light and dark, tunnels into cold and inhospitable mountains.Trails on a path that grow cold and he got lost. Encounters of the strangest kind. Humans? Animals? Secrets left unsaid. Time passes and no one knows. It is better to move before the night fall. A storm is coming. Lux Rec once again explores the underground of analog possibilities. Blomeier is a extraordinary musician playing mostly live and recording on tape cassette, not having a plan but letting the music find a way out in itself. So these three tracks came out. Record is limited to 300 copies, download code included.

In January 2012 CCO played a stunning and completely live & analog set at Zukunft, one of the best clubs in Zurich. Lux Rec asked him to reenact the set and record it once again, live...75 copies only! The result is an electronic music suite, filled with 808 and 707 beats, 303 acid lines and spatial sounds. It was magic to see CCO at work, as no computer was used in the process every pattern specs had to be written down on paper, and machines programmed on the fly. Following the vinyl EP previously released on Lux Rec, which contained revised excerpts taken from same liveset, this CD includes the entire piece.

Murphy Jax drops limited heat (200 copies) on LuxRec... after some killer 12"s on Clone's Jack For Daze & Exploited, to name a few, the synth meastro is on fine form again here! More

In Italy's deepest south, where summer sun is harsh and burns you at midday, sweat is real. You can smell, taste and feel it. It's cold sweat. From constant fear, that haunts people in the dusty streets like shadows. Some say, it's only paranoia. But you can't deny the kidnappings, the stick-ups and the killings. Police is doomed to watch, hands cuffed, since the power lays in the hands of others. Who are they? They are invisible. You can only see the bloodshed and the tears. And like everywhere else in the world: violence is always calling for more violence. This is the life of Jack Curtu. And his music takes you there. Three slices, each unique in style, yet united by human rage, misery and desperation. Senza via d'uscita - there's no way out! Lux Rec knows. More

t?s hard to believe that Meschi only released his first record at the start of 2011. Since then he?s been refining his sound by putting out a series of records that take in a large and varied breadth of house music. But no-where else has Meschi?s sound been more ground-breaking than with his new E.P, ?Light Wave Theory?. The record opens with ?Origins?, and the record hits the ground running with an obese bass-line dipping through a sparse rhythm. This is a deeply touching jack-attack, infused with stripped-down, cold-wave hysterics and touched by that very distinct Meschi charm. Science-fiction synth-lines smash through a rugged beat, wailing at you with such force that you can?t help but take notice.
?Cosmos? marks a return to more recognisable Meschi territory, as he draws his listener into the deepest depths of house music. The track pulls you into a dream-world where time stands still, giving you the chance to take in the structure, the sounds and the esoteric feeling from one of Meschi?s most outstanding pieces of deep music. We close the E.P with another ?deeper-than-deep? masterpiece, ?Theory?. This track is very much an aquatic exploration of his sound, the whole rhythm shifting in waves, perpetuated by startling open hi?s and rolling snares. Of all the tracks on the E.P ?Theory? is by far the most ?Meschi?, but it marks the pinnacle of a sound he has been developing over years. It perfectly encapsulates all the work he has released to date, while still marking a shift forward for the young producer. Frank Mitchell Ali Renault: ?Meschi produces some of the most balanced house music that you hear today, and Light Theory on LUX is his best work to date!? More
