Having previously reissued (and compiled) the early 90s work of cult Italian deep house duo Minimal Vision, the reactivated Vibraphone label has now decided to rummage through the pair’s archive of unreleased recordings. The result is this fine four tracker, which includes material recorded by the twosome at their home studio in Rome in 1990 and ’91 (pre-dating their two original EPs, which first landed in 1992 and ’93). There’s naturally loads to set the pulse racing, from the syn-tom heavy deep house beats, sustained chords and twinkling melodic motifs.

The thirteenth release on the Gladio Operations label bears the signature of the great Spanish producer Boris Divider. This artist needs no introduction, as he is considered one of the pioneering producers of the electro scene in Spain, and active since the 2000s, releasing mainly on his label Drivecom. After betting in recent years on more experimental and hypnotic sounds close to IDM, Boris returns to the pulse of the rhythms more rooted to the dancefloor with this EP titled “In Fragments”.

Prolific duo Years of Denial return to Veyl with another genre bending, dance floor ready EP titled Love Cuts.

A blend of death rock, future goth, EBM and rave, we once again find the project’s poetic, powerful lyrics fusing with motorized beats and 4×4 rhythms.

For those of you that missed the memo the first time, we have compiled a selection of deep cuts from the mysterious R-Zone archives. See it as an introduction or perhaps a retrospective, depending on how long you’ve been around. R-Zone seeks to recapture the spirit of the original raves where faces mattered less than music and marketing and the cult of personality were not yet a thing. A simpler time some might say, but we know better. For when the lights are dim and the smoke and strobe rule supreme you might still transcend your daily grind and slip into the comforting womb of the R-Zone.

By the end of the 1970s Linval Thompson had cut out a successful dual career for himself as both singer and producer. Naturally he moved in the dub field as well, getting further use out of rhythms he used in his other works. Dub had begun strictly as an album format with limited pressing runs for scene insiders, but it had swiftly gained the interest of the rank and file reggae buffs. ‘Negrea Love Dub’, originally released in 1978, is a cornerstone in the reggae dub scene. The sound of the ten dubs featured here is hypnotic and its effects are euphoric to say the least.

Japan’s electronic music scene has always stood out as uniquely distinctive. In the late 1970s and early 1980s, a wave of underground projects, bands, and independent labels – primarily based in Tokyo and Osaka – began crafting their own sound. Inspired by the post-punk, new wave, and experimental movements emerging from Europe and North America, these artists embraced a DIY ethic, using whatever technology they had access to in order to forge something entirely their own. This movement, often referred to as the “Nippon-wave” scene, remained largely hidden from the outside world. Many of its releases – on cassette tapes, flexi-discs, and privately pressed vinyl – never distributed beyond Japan’s borders, making them rare treasures for the few who managed to discover them. “Nihon No Wave” presents a selection of these long-overlooked recordings, making them accessible to listeners beyond Japan for the first time. This is Nihon No Wave part 2.
