CD: OOIOO - Armonico Hewa â¬
17.50
âArmonico
Hewaâ continues the rapturous and frenetic celebration of nature that
coursed through the veins of OOIOOâs 2006 album âTaigaâ. Where as
âTaigaâ meant âforestâ in Russian and âbig riverâ in Japanese,
âArmonico Hewaâ is a combination of words (âarmonicoâ is Spanish and
âhewaâ is Swahili) that is defined by the band as âair in a armonious
stateâ. Like the cross-cultural title, âArmonico Hewaâ 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 âTaigaâ is once
again the driving force behind âArmonico Hewaâ. 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

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": 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. âReworkâ 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 âCloserâ 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.

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 - âviva oliveâ
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

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": Breakage
- Hard (Original & Caspa + The Others RMX) â¬
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, Breakageâs 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 Habitâs âHere Come the
Drumsâ on Reinforced.
Further releases came on labels including Critical & Scientific
Wax, before his debut album release in 2006 âThis To Shall Passâ gained
wide spread critical acclaim and included some slower tempo material,
hinting at what was
to come. James signed with Shy FXâs mighty Digital Soundboy imprint in
2007, and soon turned heads with the haunting half-time beats of
âClarendon b/w Shroud.â It came as no surprise that he would make waves
in the dubstep community with his next
release, âCallahan b/w Untitled,â after having remixed one of the
sceneâs biggest tracks to date, Benga & Cokiâs âNight,â alongside
Shy FX as Digital Soundboy. 2009 has seen Breakage cemented himself as
âone to watchâ across the British dance music press
and taste-making elite. Following on from the superb âTogetherâ,
Breakage released ?Run Em Outâ feat. Roots Manuva b/w âHigherâ this
October to massive critical acclaim. Breakage follows ?Run Em Out? with
the thuggish reworked âHardâ 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.
Heâs 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 âFoundationâ due
for release in Feb 2010 on Digital Soundboy, itâs 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.

12": 20th
Century Steel Band - Heaven & Hell Sampler â¬
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 ôWarm Heart, Cold Steelô. This would prove to be a
landmark album, featuring the track ôHeaven & Hell is on Earthô
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.
ôHeaven & Hell is on Earthô has been a firm favourite since its
release as a sample in 1986. The ôStop the Violenceô movement were
the first, but by no means last to sample for the track ôSelf
Destructionô 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 ôBehind the Frontô, The Jungle
Brothers and LL Cool J (Featuring in the film ôTake the Leadô,
starring Antonio Banderas). Perhaps the most famous of all tracks to
sample ôHeaven & Hell is on Earthô is ôJenny from the Blockô by
Jennifer Lopez (This is me ââ¬Â¦Then).
Whilst ôHeaven & Hell is on Earthô 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 bandôs
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 ôHeaven and Hell is on
Earthô 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).

M & Terry Patton - Tri-Fire Vol.1 â¬
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
âMad Dogâs Hustle.â 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 (âthe manâ even turned vinyl records white).

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.

12": Nappy
Riddem - Nappy Riddem ⬠8.95 - (Sample)
The
latest act on Fort Knox Recordings, Nappy Riddem, is the
Ragga-psychedelic funk project comprised of producer/DJ Rex Riddem,
Fort Knox Five & Thunderball vocalist Mustafa Akbar, and Thievery
Corporation Bassist Ashish âHashâ Vyas.
Nappy Riddem is the first single from their album âOne World
Sovereigntyâ on Fort Knox Recordings, and features guest appearances
from Asheru (the Unspoken Heard, Guerilla Arts Inc), The Unkown, and
other live instrumentalists from Fort Knox Five, Thunderball, and
Thievery Corporation camps. Inspired by the late James Brown, Nappy
Riddem is a sonic journey into the psychedelic funk realm. Horny horns
Super Soul vocals and phat guitar riffs make this a tune that will find
its way into many deejays crate.
The first single has two highly appropriate remixers. Both are no
strangers to Fort Knox. The first remix was done by QDUP Foundation.
Their mix evokes something reminiscent of Sly & the Family Stone.
Crazy synth lines and phat beats make this a serious dancefloor
destroyer. The other is The All Good Funk Alliance who serve up a beats
& breaks monster with spaced out vocal tweaks, and a serious
breakdown. This tune is a surefire primetime burner.

12": Kid Sister - Right Hand Hi
(Caspa RMX) ⬠9.50
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 3 minute rave-pop blast that tears its way out of the stereo.
ââ¬ËRight Hand Hiââ¬â¢ features the staccato beats and inventive
production of Steve Angello and Sebastian Ingrosso (AKA the Swedish
House Mafia). A firecracker track, original, bold and full of hooks,
ââ¬ËRight Hand Hiââ¬â¢ takes no prisoners. Fusing cutting edge dance music
with Chicago hip-hop this is pop music at its best.
Kid Sister - aka Melisa Young - exploded last year with the genius
ââ¬ËPro Nailsââ¬â¢ which features Kanye West (appearing out of love for
his fellow Chicagoan Kid Sis), and an appearance on Count &
Sindenââ¬â¢s ââ¬ËBeeperââ¬â¢. Since then she has been recording her album
with the worldââ¬â¢s finest electronic music makers.

LP: Beach
Boys vs J.Dilla - Pet Sounds: In The Key Of Dee â¬
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.

2-LP: De La Soul - Are You In?
⬠17.50
An
all-new album from De La Soul is always going to be good news, and 'Are
You In?' proves a welcome addition to the De La catalogue. Despite the
longest of waits between full-lengths, the legendary Long Island trio
agreeably engage old-school sonics spruced up with 21st-century
production gloss. Commissioned by Nike, 'Are You In?' moves like a DJ
set with throwback beats turning up the tempo and opening and closing
with relaxed, soul-tinged tunes. 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! Don't miss this
limited double vinyl promo edition!

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.

KANN
features with the fourth release two remixes from two special artists,
we come a long with as friends and fans for a couple of years. Sven
Weisemann retypes Bender & Sevensols �Evol Peed� into a typical
but high class dubby version, that hold you captive from first chords
and hats. On the other side there is a very special bouncing mix as a
bomb from our buki good friend, dj, producer and newly singer Daniel
Stefanik. He takes hand on Brotherhoods �Memorial Smith� and apply
himself for new house president. Both Tracks are originally taken from
first record of KANN in 2008.

12": Wareika,
Tomas Barfored, Fredski - Mountain Ride â¬
7.95 - (Sample)
Tartelet
Records presents their eighth 12inch - âThe Work Out 1&2â² 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 Germanyâs 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 âhouse-chopsâ
meets âband jam sessionâ.
