Bernadott – The Roof Of Love EP [GOLEM008]

Bernadott, the Roof of Love EP showcases the talent of two underground producers hailing from Paris and Stockholm, two diggers of the highest order, immersed in musique concrete, italo, free jazz, punk, chicago house and such, two DJs devoted to tension, hips and shoulders. With upcoming releases on high profile labels, The Golem proudly takes them to the forefront first, unleashing their highly original and leftfield take on the dancefloor. On Side A, Bernadott turns a white funk forgotten gem, expands it before turning it into a gherkin-esque acid burner with unexpected nods to juke, subtly returning to its post punk roots before you even notice. On side B, another post punk affair autistically turned into a dubby madchester piano choon, a quasi absurd but groovy breezy love song. And last but not least, this new episod ends with ”You Dance So Well”, a real floor filler cosmic/synth wave hyptnotic track sung in german.

Cruise Family – We’re In Heaven [NNF247]

Vinyl debut by this Viennese rave abstractionist boils down pulsing LED beats and deep synth strobe FX into a cavernous laser-streaked fog. in blinding Alex Grey-style acid-body artwork by Mr. Cruise Family himself. With more ups and downs than the average quad bike race track, epic title track “We’re In Heaven” draws us into the pulsing synth-ride. Sparkling argeggios and acid blips slide over a squelchy undercarriage making for some tranced-out electro psychedelia. “Be Part Of It (Club Mix)” will appeal to lovers of the 80s EBM sound – it’s swirling nu-beat, but without a kick drum in ear shot. “Gone By Dawn” closes the EP on a tripped-out cosmic ambience.

Lakaband & Automatic Tasty – Clownfish EP [MEKA003]

Lakaband is back, this time for a symbiotic EP with Automatic Tasty. The Automatic Tasty’s anemone mix is a spirited and vigorous take on the acidulated languor of the original Clownfish, Lakaband’s smooth track, and the bouncy effervescence of the Irish mogul’s Morning Again meets the casual nonchalance of Lakaband’s track Protandry. With all tracks having been under the well advised mastering supervision of Alden Tyrell, and coming in a pretty limited number of copies, this release will be a nice addition to your collection.

Juju & Jordash – Jewsex [CHANNEL027]

JuJu & Jordash return to Golf Channel with a bang. A pounding Italo / EBM influenced club epic in three distinct flavours. The ‘Clubsex’ mix traps a Pacman and has it bouncing off a wall of feedback until it locates Steve Poindexter and the Relief records back catalogue, and ‘Dubsex’ drenches everything in delay and 69’s detuned synths.

Elitechnique – Intrusion [CLSS009]

Elitechnique is back with Intrusion, a 8 track ep. The pair (Remco de Jong aka Phako and Florentijn Boddendijk) find an ongoing source of inspiration in disco and electronic obscurities as we’ve learned from their previous releases (which have been played and charted by all the big names in modern disco), but combine this with their fascination for the great 60’s and 70’s soundtracks! The result is a timeless imaginary sound track that adds sex and intrigue to their music and unleashed from the chains of dancefloor productions. On this Intrusion album they take freedom to play around with atmosphere intensity and tension without only focussing about a dancefloor. Both being skilled producers and musicians the result is an album extraordinaire with all instruments and music played, recorded and arranged by themselfs over a period of more then a year!

Uku Kuut – Vision Of Estonia [PPU034]

PPU’s first long-play LP highlights some of the early beginnings of one of our favorite producers, UKU KUUT. Written and recorded at UKU’s home studio in Los Angeles and Stockholm between 1982 & 1989. Some tracks co-written with Maryn E. Coote, famous jazz vocalist who had her beginnings in 1960s Soviet Union. ”That’s my MOM” recalls UKU, ”I remember when I was little, sitting under the mixing board at her sessions”. Growing up in studios, UKU’s love of music production began early, and over the years he has amassed a vast collection of domestic and soviet electronic gear. In true PPU style this LP is a mix of UKU KUUT’s raw cassette demos, forgotten masters and unreleased magic.

Frank Booker – Fall Out EP [SBR10]

Title track ‘Fall Out’ is an irresistible uptempo peak time nugget that cleverly walks the line between moody deephouse and organic disco. Flip over for ‘Boss’, a pearl of a midtempo track with loads of oomph and drive that keeps building and building. On ‘Points’, the closing track of the EP, Frank Booker conjures up an infectious beatdown groove with a killer bassline.

VA – Blackdisco XI [BD011]

DEA/ALBION/SPACELEX - Blackdisco XI (Front Cover)

Blackdisco Volume XI pushes forward into new territory (and with a new aesthetic) by welcoming a group of three deep diggers who shun musical trends and their inherent fakers. Dea, Albion & Spacelex combine their vinyl-mining efforts to unearth some real diamonds from the rough. Dea’s cut Malaka its a floater with a funky sailboat vibe, while his complimentary cut Taubat takes the tired jungle disco vibe to new level with its triumphant synth-led chorus, an absolute stunner that could be extended for 20 minutes. On the flip, Albion spoons water over the coals, steaming up the joint with an uptempo percussion bomb as if Santana had a disco secret, and Spacelex rides us out with a sexy rock groove complete with mysterious male voiceover, almost as if someone lowered the volume to whisper in your ear.

VA – Black Gloves EP [GD001]

https://imagescdn.juno.co.uk/300/CS454213-01A-MED.jpg

Giallo Disco Records presents their first release Black Gloves EP. Between Berlin and Vienna, Giallo Disco Records is a new label dedicated to the sub-sub-genre of Horror Disco. Gianni Vercetti’s macabre soundtracks are presented with lashings of VHS grain. ‘L’Incubo Senza Fine’ is dripping with tension, a relentless kick drum thud like the march of the undead themselves. Legowelt’s remix only adds to this, calling on the sound of his most recent collection ‘The Teac Life’. Antoni Maiovvi’s Rituals Of Lust is a 98bpm dark EBM/New Beat-esque stomper. Retro-space age futurism, battleships preparing for war near the moons of Jupiter. Themroc(k)’s would perhaps be the perfect music for a malfunctioning T-800, demented vocals a-go-go. Dark brooding action soundtracks for a bleak tomorrow.
