Alternative

CD: OOIOO - Armonico Hewa € 17.50

‘Armonico Hewa’ continues the rapturous and frenetic celebration of nature that coursed through the veins of OOIOO’s 2006 album ‘Taiga’. Where as ‘Taiga’ meant ‘forest’ in Russian and ‘big river’ in Japanese, ‘Armonico Hewa’ is a combination of words (‘armonico’ is Spanish and ‘hewa’ is Swahili) that is defined by the band as “air in a armonious state”. Like the cross-cultural title, ‘Armonico Hewa’ is a mind- melting combination of stylistic reference points that can only be described as some kind of tribal psychedelia that is oddly spiritual and alarmingly urgent. OOIOO leader Yoshimi began her music career in 1986 playing drums in UFO Or Die with Eye and later joined him in the revolutionary noise-pop experimentalist Boredoms. While the group has featured different musicians in the past, the same all-female four-piece who created ‘Taiga’ is once again the driving force behind ‘Armonico Hewa’. Longtime OOIOO guitarist Kayan, bassist Aya and drummer Ai join Yoshimi to create one of the most enthralling, adventurous and unique bands in modern music. CD version comes packaged in an ultra-deluxe six panel old-style tip-on mini-LP style gatefold package (custom made by the printer for this release). The LP version is limited to 1,000 copies and comes in a gatefold jacket with free download coupon

12": Drumsound & Bassline Smith - Law Of The Jungle feat MC Spyda € 7.95

More goodness from the '10 Years Of Technique' compilation here, with two contrasting slices of dance floor fun from the Technique family. Kicking things off, Derby's Powers That Be roll it out like only they can, on the monstrous 'Law Of The Jungle'. With $pyda on vocal duty and bass bigger than a herd of stampeding elephants, this is sure to destroy any rave it touches. On the flip side, this take a turn for the funky, courtesy of liquid funk 'one to watch' Technicolour. As the name suggests, 'Elastic' is a neck-snapping combination of live funk bass, Rhodes licks, and a lounge jazz breakdown that takes the tune somewhere else entirely.

12": Unknown Vs Michael Jackson - Rock My World € 8.95

Two really good bootlegs here as both tracks are pure rollas, these could be official remix’s they are so good. Both tracks are by an artist people will recognize but will remain anonymous. A) Michael Jackson - Rock My World (D&B RMX) B) La Roux - In For The Kill (D&B RMX)

A) S.P.Y - Moon Patrol B) Jubei - Entrapment C) Subwave - First Time D) Soul Defiance - Hurt Me

Dub Techno

12": A Made Up Sound - Rework Closer Ep € 9.50 - (Sample)

After his recent release on Clone A Made Up Sound (aka 2562) presents his new platform for his own beat freakery. It is no news anymore that Dave Huismans is one talented guy! His debut 2562 album was one of last years highlights.. and his new album set for early winter 09 will be not create a smaller buzz! In the meanwhile mr Huismans also managed to squeeze out some killer tracks out of his machines for his A Made Up Sound project! These 2 tracks will get a limited run on his newly started label. ‘Rework’ started out as a sneaky bonus remix but ended up as a killer techno track in its own right, with stomping 4/4 beats, an irresistibly simple 3 note chord melody and gut-wrenching sub bass. Contrasting is ‘Closer’ on the flip, where a yearning vocal stab spirals around a warm synth line that just keeps on building over signature punchy broken beats and a big b-line, all the way until its climaxing breakdown. These tracks cross the gap between techno and dubstep. Highly recommended!

12": V.a. - Viva Oliv € 10.50 - (Sample)

AC Records first release. The new label is a division of www.acidlab.de (normally known for its analogue hardware clones) with a focus on promoting dark, electronic music by unknown artists. A1 - “viva olive“ is a dark psychoacoustic acid track by hteah via portland, oregon. his time at present is spent building his soundsystem and helping manifest semi autonomous festivals. please see; http://www.mutantfest.org via http://wwww.panzen.net A2 - “ tip-tilt“is a spacy acid groover by glum-c. B1+B2 are hard dancefloor tracks by dB24 (steve romani) from Lyon. Steve is a studio rat with a lot of music output. The record comes in olive-coloured marbled vinyl and is limited to 150 records.


Dubstep

12": Joker - City Hopper / Output 1-2 € 7.95 - (Sample)

A: 'City Hopper' AA: 'Output 1-2' It's been an incredible year for the 20 year old Bristolian, responsible for igniting a worldwide passion in what's become known as the 'Purple Wow' mutation of dubstep. If you've yet to hear Joker's unique take on things - his melodic synth-funk lines, grimey basslines and all round sense of fun-injected-back-into-music... Then get out from under your stone and check it out! With releases on his own Kapsize imprint earlier this year - tracks like 'Do It' and 'Purple City' (w/ Ginz), Joker has sent shock waves from the underground that has rippled from Skream or Kode 9's record box to the likes of Scratch Perverts, Zane Lowe - to major label record companies even, hounding for Joker remixes... Just over the last 6 months he's handed in killer remixes for Simian Mobile Disco, Basement Jaxx, Sean Paul and many more - he's taken Sonar by storm single handedly and is now booked up with gigs every weekend until 2017. Well maybe not quite on the last bit, but it fits with the momentum building here In an inspired follow up to 'Untitled_rsn' released by Tectonic earlier this year as part three of the Tectonic Plates Volume 2 vinyl series (backed with Flying Lotus's 'Glendale Galleria'), Tectonic is very proud to welcome his return to the label, rounding off a heavy year of releases in fine style with 2 excellent cuts. 'City Hopper' once again shows us Joker's unequalled ability to make party flavoured melodies that keep well away from the Stinking Bishop territory of some of his jump-up peers. It'll make you want to dance but you won't feel guilty the morning after. Match his luminous, catchy melodies with bass weight grimey b-lines and his Timbaland quality crunked production skills - you really have here, a heavy piece of kit to smash up any dancefloor. Flip too for 'Output 1-2' - a personal favourite with label boss Pinch as Joker goes for a more stripped down affair that steams ahead with mangled synth production lines that will bend your brain to snapping point!

12": Skunk Anansie - Squander € 7.95

12": Breakage - Hard (Original & Caspa + The Others RMX) € 7.95 - (Sample)

Breakage aka James Boyle is never been one to be pigeonholed. Moving effortlessly through styles from drum and bass to dubstep, Breakage has proved himself to be one of the most versatile operators in either scene to date. A prodigious talent, he already has a number of classic releases under his belt but continues to develop his sound. Combining rich tones and a sense of spaciousness in the mix, Breakage’s music is both subtle yet devastatingly effective. Never afraid to make an impact, he burst onto the d&b scene back in 2000, announcing his arrival with a raucous remix of a hardcore classic, Nasty Habit’s ‘Here Come the Drums’ on Reinforced. Further releases came on labels including Critical & Scientific Wax, before his debut album release in 2006 ‘This To Shall Pass’ gained wide spread critical acclaim and included some slower tempo material, hinting at what was to come. James signed with Shy FX’s mighty Digital Soundboy imprint in 2007, and soon turned heads with the haunting half-time beats of ‘Clarendon b/w Shroud.’ It came as no surprise that he would make waves in the dubstep community with his next release, ‘Callahan b/w Untitled,’ after having remixed one of the scene’s biggest tracks to date, Benga & Coki’s ‘Night,’ alongside Shy FX as Digital Soundboy. 2009 has seen Breakage cemented himself as ‘one to watch’ across the British dance music press and taste-making elite. Following on from the superb ‘Together’, Breakage released ?Run Em Out’ feat. Roots Manuva b/w ‘Higher’ this October to massive critical acclaim. Breakage follows ?Run Em Out? with the thuggish reworked ‘Hard’ feat. Newham Generals and David Rodigan. Already gaining massive support and applause across the underground & in both the press and on the national airwaves, Breakage explores new ground on this bold and bashy release, giving us the perfect insight into the direction of his new album. He’s already gained specialist support across Radio 1, 1Xtra, Galaxy and Kiss FM from the likes of Zane Lowe, Annie Mac, Rob Da Bank, Giles Peterson, Ras Kwame, Toddla T, Mary Anne Hobbs, Mista Jam, Sinden and many more, not to mention being named as Zane Lowes ?Hottest Record In The World? on his Radio 1 show. With his sophomore LP ‘Foundation’ due for release in Feb 2010 on Digital Soundboy, it’s sure to be another busy year ahead for Breakage. Features on the record come courtesy of Burial, Roots Manuva, David Rodigan, Newham Generals, Kemo, Zarif and more. Expect bass heavy quality music with a broad appeal. a) Breakage ft. Newham Generals & David Rodigan 'Hard' aa) Breakage ft. Newham Generals & David Rodigan 'Hard' (Caspa & The Others 'The Police Takeover remix')

E Pop

12": Yeah Yeah Yeahs - Heads Will Roll (A-Trak RMX) € 11.95 - (Sample)

Quite possibly the rock remix of the year, it's the track heard round the blogs (#1 on Hype Machine) and in the clubs alike, with heavy play from Mehdi and Busy P (featured on their recent BBC Essential Mix), Annie Mac, Tiga, Diplo and of course A-Trak himself. It twists and turns in all the right places, while supercharging the original riff and keeping all of Karen O's charm intact. This one will be getting played for a long while, but the vinyl will only be around for this one-time white label pressing.

Electro

12": Arabian Prince - Let's Hit The Beach (Remixes) € 7.95 - (Sample)

"Assasin" is a slow temp new school electro track with a dark hypnotic bassline, acid keyboards and pitched vocals. "Ghost Day" is a chugging spaced out cosmic disco track featuring Yoshimi Yamano Aka AMWE from Japan on guest vocals. "Last Dance in Tokyo" is a Tribal discoid summer jam with tonnes of vocoder, 80's keyboard styling's and a killer of a (watch ya bassbins) bassline. "Lord of Pleasure" is a building dancefloor weapon with tripped out and more guitarefor all the 70's disco funk fans. ..


French

CD: Gainsbourg, Charlotte - I.R.M. € 19.95

In these doubtful times where only change is constant, the world remains open to new music, those that dare expressing a brand new sensitivity and surprising listeners. That’s the case with «I.R.M. », the new album of actress Charlotte Gainsbourg who, for her third record experience, chose to team up with the American BECK Hansen, one of the most prolific and talented musicians of his generation.Together, they created a unique album, sometimes luminous and elegant, sometimes dark and disturbing. «IRM» is a hypnotic diving in the meanders of a complex psyche that will bewitch whoever will take the time to really listen to it.

12": 20th Century Steel Band - Heaven & Hell Sampler € 8.95

The 20th Century Steel Band has its humble beginnings as a working band on the Baileys Circuit, however 1975 saw the band record and release their debut album ´Warm Heart, Cold Steel´. This would prove to be a landmark album, featuring the track ´Heaven & Hell is on Earth´ which would go on to be an infamous addition to the world of sampling, long after the group disbanded following the dissolution of their record label, United Artists. ´Heaven & Hell is on Earth´ has been a firm favourite since its release as a sample in 1986. The ´Stop the Violence´ movement were the first, but by no means last to sample for the track ´Self Destruction´ of which all proceeds went to the National Urban League. Having become a regular on the sampling circuit, the track has been used by artists such as Salt-N-Pepa, Xzibit, Anonymous (ft Eminem), the Black Eyed Peas on their debut album ´Behind the Front´, The Jungle Brothers and LL Cool J (Featuring in the film ´Take the Lead´, starring Antonio Banderas). Perhaps the most famous of all tracks to sample ´Heaven & Hell is on Earth´ is ´Jenny from the Block´ by Jennifer Lopez (This is me …Then). Whilst ´Heaven & Hell is on Earth´ has become the legacy of the 20th Century Steel Band, the band marked their success in other ways, such as winning New Faces in 1986. Although sampling of 20th Century Steel Band was widespread, it was also done without the band´s knowledge, which led to band member Michael Olivier successfully suing for unpaid royalties, which finally saw him and the band credited with the masterpiece. As a result, Michael, credited with composing several of the bands most successful tracks including ´Heaven and Hell is on Earth´ went on to receive recognition for his contribution to music with awards from the British Music Industry (BMI) and the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP). Tracklisting: Heaven And Hell (7" Edit) Land Of Thousand Dancers Heaven And Hell (original) Papa Was A Rolling Stone

12": Robbie M & Terry Patton - Tri-Fire Vol.1 € 13.50

Time for another lo-fi rider. 5 unreleased cassette demos from the founding members of Midnight Express, Robbie M and Terry Patton. This volume includes the original demo groove for DANGER ZONE, along with 4 more raw un-cut gems transferred direct to vinyl from the tapes. PPU did their best to restore the sound on these, but they were buried under 30 years of tape fuzz. This is the rawest synth funk preservation yet.. and only on PPU records.

LP: Upstroke - Mad Dog's Hustle Soundtrack € 17.95

In mid 2009 Secret Stash released a collection of Porno soundtrack material from the Fantasy Productions vault. After digging deeper they discovered hours of incredible unreleased music. The first thing to stand out was this soundtrack to a 1974 blaxploitation film entitled “Mad Dog’s Hustle.” The film was only shown for less than 3 weeks in 6 theaters nationwide before disappearing into a baron wasteland of low-budget, poorly marketed cinema. Within a year Fantasy forfeited the rights to the film in a legal dispute with members of the cast and crew. Fortunately, the funky soundtrack recorded by The Upstroke (the same band responsible for all of the Porno Groove material) has been salvaged. While staying true to the genre, the overall feel of the album is freer than most with lots of extended jams and improvisation. It features a mix of vocal and instrumental tracks. Also included are short musical cues and long narrations atop deep-funk grooves. This vinyl only release will be available for the first time ever only on white vinyl (“the man” even turned vinyl records white). TRACK LIST: SIDE A 01. Make It Hustle 02. Baby, Baby, Baby 03. Party In Harlem 04. Puppy Love 05. Comin’ To Getcha 06. Harlem Summer 07. Lennox Ave Rastas 08. On The Prowl SIDE B 01. Lataesha’s Cue 02. Revenge 03. East Side Strut 04. Grover’s Cue 05. Always And Forever 06. The Rumble 07. African Child 08. Pushed Too Far


Funk / Soul

2-LP: Keb Darge & Paul Weller - Lost & Found - Real R'N'B Sound € 17.95 - (Sample)

Keb Darge�s Lost and Found series sets out to expose lesser known or forgotten lights of soul music from the 50�s and 60�s. The soul of the fifties and sixties was much purer, and more honest. Therefore it reaches parts that the modern day pish cannot reach. However at last thanks to a new generation of youngsters influenced by the likes of Amy Winehouse, thousands of clubbers worldwide are now turning to the past for real pleasure during their nights out. �I look into the sea of smiling faces on the dance floor every Saturday night at Madame Jo Jo�s, and get a feeling that somehow this music has saved these people from a false and dreary nightlife.� Keb Darge. Keb Darge has compiled more compilations for BBE than any other DJ selling close to 200,000 CDs and vinyls over a 10 year period. Paul Weller is an acclaimed Rock star and Soul music collector whose contribution to music is well documented and surpasses that of any other act that has compiled a long player for BBE.

Femcee and Chicago native Kid Sister has let the polish on her French tips dry and is back with a brand new single Right Hand Hi set for release on Asylum Records. Right Hand Hi is the first single to be taken from her debut album Ultraviolet one of the most anticipated albums of next year.

A firecracker track, original, bold and full of hooks, ‘Right Hand Hi’ takes no prisoners. Fusing cutting edge dance music with Chicago hip-hop this is pop music at its best.

LP: Beach Boys vs J.Dilla - Pet Sounds: In The Key Of Dee € 17.50 - (Sample)

Producer Bullion, from France, has "re-imagined" Pet Sounds in the style of Dilla. It is NOT a mash-up. He has taken snippets and samples from Pet Sounds and sampled them in the style J Dilla would have/may have used to produce a truly amazing, and hypnotic, interpretation of Brian Wilson's Opus. At first listen we were taken aback on how deftly the Frenchman's sourced Beach Boys samples were being blended, much in the same way Wilson layered the vocals on the original to make a cohesive entity. At times it sounds like the always summery El Guincho mixed with some stuff off of Animal Collective's Sung Tongs . Nonetheless well well worth the effort, a must have for fans of DangerMouse lovers of the Grey Album.

As masters of laid-back hip-hop, and for a group that's outlived a few dozen hip-hop trends, 'old-school' is 'all-good', and they avoided simply rewriting their classic material new style breaks and beats keeping things fresh!

LP: Edan - Echo Party € 17.95

For the LP version of Echo Party we've come up with an intriguing concept: Edan is personally hand designing and assembling each and every cover. Each copy will be unique and one of a kind! We approached Edan with a unique opportunity, full access to Traffic Entertainment Groups extensive back catalog to mix and rework in any way he could imagine. We figured this would be a fairly quick and painless project that would be fun for Edan and also offer him some help in getting his name back out into the market while shedding some light on lesser known but full on dope titles buried deep in our back catalog. Two years and a new label later, Five Day Weekend and Edan have finally finished the project. What began as a simple mix, has grown into a colorful full on production album that features Edan as the musician displaying his skills on live instruments including synthesizers, guitar, percussion, echoplex even glockenspiel and kazoo. Echo Party has Edans personality intermixed with a wealth of amazing material. Elements are pulled from original multi tracks and these isolated accapellas and drum breaks have not been heard by any ears except the engineers and original artists that were in on the original sessions. Other portions are more identifiable though obscured by the filter of Edans ever improving studio techniques. Only an artist like Edan with his borderline obsessive commitment to detail could have brought such a project to life. Echo Party promises to be one of 2009s most celebrated releases.

12": Wareika, Tomas Barfored, Fredski - Mountain Ride € 7.95 - (Sample)

Tartelet Records presents their eighth 12inch - ‘The Work Out 1&2′ Mountain Ride / Restless Swing This is the first split-12inch on Tartelet, and marks an important point in the peacemaking process between Denmark and Northern Germany, since the war in 1864. Wareika, from Hamburg on the A side, are one of Germany’s most promising acts and Tomas Barfod & Fredski, from Copenhagen on the B side are first of all founders of Tartelet Records, secondly known from party- techno releases on Get Physical and Tartelet itself. This is the 3rd Tartelet Galaxy Edition release, which means that it embraces more experimental and deep sounds than the non-Galaxy output from Tartelet. Work Out 1# - Mountain Ride As the other german Tartelet artist Brand Brauer Frick, Wareika are known for their very organic approach to making deep techno and electronica. They have been releasing on some of Germanys strongest house and techno labels like Connaisseur, MotivBank and Liebe/Detail. Wareika has a warm, almost free jazz-like sound with just as clear references to Sun Ra and Weather Report as Kraftwerk. Mountain Ride is best described as an epic, dancy, live country mixup with a whole bunch of clesmer sounds. The whole track is played live by the three Wareikans; Florian does the vocals and plays the bass, Henrik is on strings and Jakob works the electronic elements live into the track as they play. Work Out 2# - Restless Swing Tomas and Frederik revealed their passion for avantgarde, world and jazz on their two Get Physical release during the summer. On Restless Swing they take it even futher, with a live palette of piano drums and saxophones. Expect ‘house-chops’ meets ‘band jam session’.
