Title:	Two Point Two
Label:	12K
Format:	2CD
Price:	$19.00
Catalog #:	12K 1026CD

"Over the course of 7 and 4 years, respectively, 12k and LINE have been at the forefront of minimalist digital music. They have established themselves not only as a home for some of the most important contemporary electronic sound artists but also as labels who are not afraid to introduce new artists and give them the opportunity to create a unique and recognized voice for themselves in the crowded world of electronic music and sound art. With the release of Two Point Two, the continuation of 12k and LINE's joint double CD series, the labels showcase their own aesthetics and highlight some of the current and future artists that will be at the forefront of their release schedules for the next year. Packaged in a stark-white double-CD digipack that features the design and photography of Taylor Deupree and Richard Chartier, all of the tracks on Two Point Two are previously unreleased. CD1 shows 12k's current interest in melodic and acoustic instrument-based electronic compositions and experiments in deconstructed rhythmic structures. CD2, the LINE disc, continues the documentation of conceptual and installation work by artists who explore contemporary and digital minimalism and the borders of silence."

Title:	Blueprints
Label:	12K
Format:	CD
Price:	$13.00
Catalog #:	12K 1039CD

"Over the past 10 years, 12k has established itself as a label on the forefront of minimalist music and has become home to some of the most important artists of the genre. It is a label that time and time again has not been afraid to release debut albums from new artists, drawing on the new energy they interject into both the scene and the label. With the release of Blueprints, 12k presents 2 tracks each from 6 artists new to its roster and showcases some of the new sounds and influences that will carry the label into its 10th year (2007). The artists on Blueprints span the globe and offer a variety of sound that both compliments and expands on the style that 12k has become known for. Christmas Decorations tread a fine line between organic and electronic, experimental and rock music. Seaworthy: their compositions often blur the lines of conventional categorisation with elements traditionally considered part of 'indie' or 'post' rock blended with processed musical and field recordings usually associated with electronic artists. Autistici: Autistici's music incorporates a wide range of sources and inspirations including obsessional microsounds, textural orchestration, near silence and field recordings. Jodi Cave explores the potentials of home-made, MaxMSP-based software, to extend, augment and re-contextualize acoustic sound in composed works and improvised performance. Pjusk has an electronic sound that is deep, dark and pulsing that evokes a narrative and sense of other-worldliness. Leo Abrahams: using a laptop to process his guitar in real time, he creates music which contains elements of folk, electronica and contemporary classical."

Title:	Neo.Pop Part Four
Label:	1ST DECADE RECORDS (GERMANY)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	1ST 009CD

"Quo Vadis, Neo.pop? The fourth part of one of the most successful compilation series can be seen as a logical consequence, consistent with the high standards it sets itself. Neo.pop was never conceived as a temporary trend expression, and it becomes ever more apparent that Neo.pop serves as a focus in which the most diverse forms of modern, electronic music attain exposure. For the first time, this compilation is intentionally not a Mix-CD, to avoid the restrictions of the necessary BPM's. This allows for space that the quality of the individual songs deserve. Quo vadis, Neo.pop? The final destination is still open, but this is sure on the right road." Features: Swayzak, Dub Pistols, Arsenal, Superpitcher, My Robot Friend, Warren Suicide, JunghanB, Turntablerocker, Kleinkariert, Cosmonauts of Innerspace.

"Another year has passed. Much has happened, music is in motion. The fifth edition of the compilation series offers more than an overview of the latest sounds. At the basis it's still electronic music but the range of music has grown considerably. So it's no surprise that a double CD was released. What do we make of it? One is for sure -- popular music can always reinvent itself. After all it' s neo.pop." Artists include: TV On The Radio, Chromeo, Cycle, Tiefschwarz feat.

Title:	430 West Presents: Back To The Rhythm
Label:	430 WEST
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	CEPT 005CD

"First there was 430 West Presents Detroit Calling, the much loved techno mix masterpiece that spawned the classic 'Blackwater' by Octave One. Now there is 430 West Presents Back To The Rhythm. And it's very special. The credits say it is mixed by Lone Burden of Octave One fame under his KSR alter ego. As with all things KSR it is abrasive tech house rather than start techno. What the credits don't say is that with needles blazing across the turntables and funk sparking inside the Pro-Tools the Detroit wonder kid manipulates and teases disparate tunes into one glorious Motor City jam. Along the way he gives us a preview of upcoming Octave One single 'Someday' (with a startling KSR remix naturally), throws in a never before released remix of Inner City's 'Big Fun' that will make the hairs on your neck stand up, includes Underground Resistance's amazing 'Transition', checks out 'Birth Of 3000' by Los Hermanos (DJ Rolando in disguise) and also comes on strong with a whole pile of unreleased 430 West back and new catalogue." Artists also include: Al James, Randolph Paul, Gerald Mitchell, Random Noise Generation, Perception.

Title:	Poplife Presents: Poplife Sucks
Label:	541 (BELGIUM)
Format:	CD
Price:	$17.00
Catalog #:	541 502368CD

Belgium's highly-acclaimed Poplife party celebrates its 10th anniversary with the mix compilation, Poplife Sucks. The Poplife party started off in 1998 as a reaction to the sterile house and techno beats at parties during those times. It became a chaotic mix of presumably un-mixable styles; rock, pop, disco, new wave, electro, and far more. The sound was completely refreshing and the crowd immediately loved it. The DJs back then were Mo & Benoeli (later The Glimmers) and Stephen De Waele (later 2 Many DJs). Saying that the mash-up phenomenon started off at Poplife is maybe overstated; on the other hand, the English music Bible The Face described Poplife as "a hysteric superjam of unreconcilable styles mashed-up into a relentless groove." Aha. Whatever you call it, Poplife Sucks is an all-inclusive party celebrating dance music across all genres that doesn't discriminate. This mix includes big, classic tracks next to hot and fresh new burners that will become future-classics. Tracks selected by The Glimmers and Olivier Tjon, edited by The Entrepreneur. Artists include: Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Moloko, The Chaplin Band, Adriano Celentano, Japan, Jacknife Lee, Brandon Cooke & Roxanne Shante, Simian Mobile Disco, Manu Dibango, Kid Frost, Liquid, Liquid, The Time, The Glimmers, Liasons Dangereuses, 16 Bit, Erotic Dissidents, Material, Switch, and Aphex Twin.

"Next triple pack on 8Bit Records delivers post modern Deep House and picks up the Olympic thoughts in the same time. Some well known artists out of the 8 Bit/C�cille league strike back and with these solid and deep grooving weapons you have a very good DJ package in your hands. Nils N�rnberg from Germany provides us another liquid, deep driving track, very genteel, while Lemos from Greece returns with his curious kind of experimental and everlasting tech-house. The bargain is built by Mr. Bearweasel from the UK, well known from Audiofly's record label Supernature, his classic house contribution will shake all booties on the dancefloor. Very traditionally -- very with our likes!"

A series of 8 duets, featuring: Taku Unami/ Norman D.Mayer; Masafumi Ezaki/Hugo Roussel; Utah Kawasaki/Jean-Philippe Gross ; Yasuo Totsuka/Quentin Dubost; Masahiko Okura/Sharif Shanaoui; Yoichiro Shin/Olivier Brisson; Ami Yoshida/Alfredo Costa Monteiro; Kazushige Kinoshita/Fabrice Eglin.

The 8 duets open on experimental proposals: 8 improvised musical meetings in the suspended time of mail exchanges. East to the West, Japan & France. 1+1 = 3. The musical arithmetic differs from what we were taught at school. Each duet creates a sonic hybrid with a third element born out of the encounter of the musical identities. From: / To: found its source in the will of 5 labels Hibari / Abruitsecret / Fragment / Pricilia / Vertpituite to gather young musicians from Lebanon, France and Japan playing in the fields of electroacoustic and improvised music.

Title:	New Town
Label:	A.i. (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	AI 005CD

"In the space of the last 12 months, Ai has become one of the most talked-about, relevant and collectable of independent labels anywhere in the world today. With an audio-visual aesthetic heavily rooted in originality and an appreciation of classic electronic music and design in all its forms; followers of Warp, Skam, Toytronic and the like have been scrambling round each of its limited releases with glee. Originally conceived as a tribute to the 'sound of Crawley', New Town is a simply devastating collection of electronic tracks for the dancefloor. Following his hugely influential EP Piece of Mind, THE record at Sven Vath's infamous Cocoon nights currently, Claro Intelecto finally returns with two brand new cuts: the dense, punishing electroid mashup of 'Delete', and the Rhodes-infused Drexciyan chill of 'Breathless'. Claro has been cited by many as the finest producer of electroid/house hybrids on the scene at the moment -- a British producer who can at long last rank amongst the most decorated Detroit operators -- typifying precisely why he has been in so much demand over the last few months. FZV, another core artist, displays a relentless IDM construction that spins with the sort of dark strokes that fans of Bola and early Skam will adore -- a mangle of crunch and strings designed to evoke and terrify. Joe Franks, meanwhile, summons the spirit of Mantronix through a series of filters and flangers that digest the squashed drums and appregiated basslines into a factory monster: tough, considered, flawlessly executed electro sizzles of the loveliest kind. SWF's beat�engineering comes straight outta Company Flow's rulebook -- deep structures and a blue, crisp crunch of uncompromising beats to draw in a machine-led future on the gargantuan 'True'. With uplifting motor-city house chords shimmering on Andy Freer's 'Super Galaxo', ADJ's mangled machinery evoking EP7-era Autechre brilliance and the Carl Craig/69 vibes assembled on T.R.I.P.'s 'Donald Plays Techno', New Town deploys a heavyweight assault through the ages of electronic music -- past, present and future."

Title:	Station
Label:	A.i. (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$15.00
Catalog #:	AI 007CD

"Station stands alone -- offering a kind of closure to previous compilations conceived by Ai records, it's not so much a concept album, more of an attitude -- Station as a place leading somewhere new, motion and stasis, at once urban and yet suggesting other destinations, new locations. A truly international base of artists bless each track with unique musical criteria and direction -- from urban mind funk through electro to purest pop. Ai's typical attention to graphic detail brings the sleeve's hexagonal patterns into allusive focus -- in the detuned melodies of Welk from Steve Hyland's 'Normal' and Praveen's 'Small Clues' -- evidence of a generation reared on the shamanic pastoralism of the Boards of Canada. However, we've learnt to expect diverse terrain from Ai -- the label's EP stars of 2003 continue to develop their sound -- Yellotone's Simon Harding drops the Channel One influenced digital steppa 'Dubbly More', while Michael Manning runs it down with some Bola-esque percussive voodoo. From the new recruits there's classic pop too -- West Australian Pablo Dali offers pristine indie-tronic strums and sways, from comparative Swiss veterans Sinner Dc -- a vocal tune with strings and a stroboscopic psychedelic purity to entrance and rescue early Air fans. From Italy, Tin-Tole-Lata blur the divide between electronic and acoustic with aplomb, dreamlike melodies play over crisp beats. Icelander's Traject -- now signed to the super-cool Spezial material imprint -- traverses a glacial, isolated place. Intonamori provides an unguent, welcoming lullaby for the synapses, while Ascoltare and Sofalofa achieve great things with chiming melodic vibes and deep acoustic drums, processed in their own inimitable style. Its left to Ai's own Puerto Rican-Miami connection, Chris Roman's 214 project to bring the boom to this album -- reared on classic bass, and it really shows. From The Outside asks listeners to submit to the get on down and party with a dose of classic Detroit inflection. Plain to see why Microlux have snapped up his debut album. Station provides a sense of the diversity this critically lauded label has made its watchword, never content with mere stasis -- looking ahead for the next destination with what may be termed wanderlust. A concentrated dose of the right stuff."

Title:	Sampler 06
Label:	A.i. (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	AI 015CD

"2006 sees Ai start the year with a stunning new compilation, this time in the form of a limited edition 12" vinyl picture disc (500 copies only) and sampler priced CD. The album spotlights eight new signings to the UK label, all of whom indicate 2006 should prove as spectacular a year for Ai devotees as 2005. The Ai garb fits Rootsix perfectly, judging by the gleaming electro-house of 'Just One of Those Things,' and Biologic and Pathic (John Cranmer) sound equally at home on their respective tracks 'Crystal Violet' and 'Triangulation,' where dramatic washes and mellow tones drape over bubbly beats and churning electrofunk. Sensiva (Russian born Artem Galukhin) adds a slippery hip-hop strut to his spacey '44100 th Galaxy' while Tomcats In Tokyo (French duo Fabrice Rey and Fabrice Marsaud) build 'Telophasic C�phalee' into a driving mass of rumbling beats and blistering squelches. Only Moonjean's 'Someday My Prints Will Come' departs dramatically in style (though that shouldn't surprise too much, given that she identifies Glen Campbell, Bread, and The Carpenters as influences). Michigan-based Jeanie Moon-Gatrops creates a lovely setting from marimba, synths, acoustic guitar, and her own treated voice, in a style that recalls Melodic more than Ai. No matter how similar or dissimilar their material, the new recruits are concerned less with inciting revolutions than in perpetuating Ai's rep for quality production, and in that regard they succeed admirably."

Title:	AI022LP
Label:	A.i. (UK)
Format:	LP
Price:	$19.00
Catalog #:	AI 022LP

"This release brings to a close a series of EPs from the three artists featured on this picture disc. The disc itself is something you will have never seen before and should amaze and surprise. This final release in the dot series EPs brings Ai's color series to a close and serves up two tracks from each of the three artists behind the solo EPs. The Third Man opens proceedings on a peak-time electro tip with 'Circadian Rhythms,' a track underpinned by a dark growling bass line that will get your internal organs rattling and do some serious damage to your speakers. Najem Sworb is up next with 'Rodstac,' a mellow introduction to the EP with bubbling electroid vocals, playful synths and washes of filtered sound all wrapped around a brooding percussive hook reminiscent of Plastikman's 'Spastik.' Plant 43's closer for side A, 'Warehouse Window,' delivers a superb contrasting cut based around his trademark melodies and subtle electronics. Sounds like a snapshot of electro's past, present and future. Influences: Drexciya, ERP/Convextion, Juan Atkins, Underground Resistance, and Kraftwerk." 400 only, pressed on clear, polka-dotted vinyl.

Title:	Sampler Zero Eight
Label:	A.i. (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$9.00
Catalog #:	AI 023CD

"Due in part to satisfy the requests for CD-based material, Ai's next full-length offering is a sampler showcasing the breadth of talent and styles signed to the label's roster. Deep, dubby techno is represented on 'Teranidian,' the LP's opener and the final track from Najem Sworb's critically-acclaimed debut EP from late 2007. Plant43's Drexciyan-tinged electro is up next in the shape of the title track from his Grey Sky Cracks EP before we move swiftly onto the The Third Man's warm techno journey along the 'A14.' Hot on the heels of his first full-length opus, the midpoint of the LP is handed over to Datassette; firstly with 'Damage Report,' his futuristic take on machine funk and then the medieval tones of 'Pluck,' a track akin to dropping a court lyre player into a modern day recording studio and allowing him to tinker merrily. Electronica is where the label first made its mark and the latter half of the sampler shows that while recent releases have had more of structured dancefloor feel, this genre is still very much part of the label's repertoire. Michael Manning delivers a pair of previously-unreleased tracks both of which have a strong string content although vary in their approach with 'Center of the Universe' being a full scale orchestral affair with complementary electronics, whereas 'Release' gently works the strings between broken beat and game-like patterns. Strings also play a part in Sinner DC's 'Summer 57,' a distorted electro workout sounding like a slowed-down version of Underworld's 'Rez' and another brand new track exclusive to this release. The LP is then finally brought to a close with the ambient electronica of Michael Manning's 'Lost Aberrant Dragonfly,' the oldest cut on the sampler coming from his earlier EP of the same name."

Title:	You Are Here
Label:	ACCIDENTAL (UK)
Format:	CD
Price:	$16.00
Catalog #:	AC 007CD

"You Are Here is a collection of tracks released on Matthew Herbert's Accidental, Soundslike and Lifelike labels from their 3 year history. Initially the three labels were just a way of separating the myriad guises of Herbert. So, Accidental became home to Radio Boy, Lifelike the home of Doctor Rockit and Soundslike the home of Herbert. The label soon attracted a following and demos began to come in. From these came the first releases for the label that weren't produced by Matthew Herbert. The first of these was Phil Parnell's Barcelona EP, the title of which is included here. The next artist was The Soft Pink Truth, a side project of Drew Daniel, one half of Californian experimentalists Matmos. His debut album Do You Party? was released in February 2003 on Lifelike. Other artists on You Are Here are John Matthias, 8 Doogymoto, and Shelby Gaines. Also exclusive tracks from Ian Vine, International Space Station, Pete Stollery and NB."

Title:	Gnawa Home Songs
Label:	ACCORDS CROISES (FRANCE)
Format:	CD
Price:	$22.00
Catalog #:	AC 117CD

"The village of Tamesloht is a holy place in the arid lands south of Marrakech. In the moonlight, its walls resound with evocation of protective gnawa spirits. Between the call to prayer and the humming of insects, its sound universe is inhabited by sub-Saharan Africa and age-old migrations. This intimate tribute to the power of an ancient tradition divests the healing melodies of their ritual drumming. Instead, Gnawa Home Songs shines the spotlight on a number of exceptional soloists -- stirring vocalists or virtuoso players of the three-stringed guembri lute. Listen in as the old masters Hamid Kasri (who, incidentally, has played with Joe Zawinu) and Amida Boussou join forces with young stars such as Hassan Boussou, founder of the band S�wary�. Beautifully packaged, this is a unique document of an extraordinary living tradition."

Title:	Project Bicycle
Label:	ACHE (CANADA)
Format:	CD
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	ACHE 025CD

"Eleven electronic / electro-acoustic artists from eight countries unify to pay homage to what listeners of BBC Radio 4's You and Yours radio program have voted as the most significant invention since 1800, beating computers, the internet, and even the combustion engine with more then half the total votes. The concept is simple: Give a handful of today's most progressive sound designers only one sample to work with. They are able to manipulate this sample in any way they choose, but their entire song must be composed entirely from the single sound byte. The supplied sample is a stuadio recording of a bicycle, recorded by Jesse Gander at The Hive Studios in Vancouver. This gives equal importance to the materials as well as the method used in Project: Bicycle. This, along with the beautifully written essay on bicycle riding and it's social, environmental, and physical benefits by Green Party Candidate, Sean Orr, offers a deeper concept to the project. With the inevitable threat of peak oil in our not too distant future, it is time we opened the lines of communication to other forms of energy and transportation. Each artist has chosen to tackle the project uniquely, embracing his own particular style. Whether it's the playful, electrifying outbursts of Sun Ok Papi K.O's 'Pizza Boy's Bike'(Belgium) and Aelters' 'Roul� Brouill�' (France), or the smoother approaches of Wobbly's 'Flee You' (USA), and Romanhead's 'Bicycle Work' (UK), the various techniques in composition and style offer an incredibly dynamic listen given Project: Bicycle's strict guidelines." Featuring: Aelters, Jab Mica Och El, Sun Ok Papi K.O., Secret Mommy, DJ Elephant Power, TU M', Romanhead, Uska Niko, Greg Davis, Wobbly, Jason Forrest.

Title:	Ye Olde Barn Compilation
Label:	ADDICT RECORDS
Format:	CD
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	ADDICT 004CD

"Depending on the eye of the beholder, the barn in East Troy, Wisconsin was complete idioticy or beautiful art. We at Addict Recordings saw it as both. For five beautiful summers, the Barn served as a drawing board for a community of musicians from around the world. Artists like Venetian Snares, Bogdan, Neon Hunk, Doormouse, Emotional Joystick, Stunt Rock and the famed band MEAT used it as a creative testing field; bouncing around insane musical ideas to a greatly appreciative audience. Boats were burned, whole cars flipped, smashed and destroyed. Countless wanderers thrown into mud, ears turned 180 degrees by the foreign sounds. Flash forward, summer 2003, and the barn has seen better days. The property owners are seeing some legal, and this is our way to help. All tracks are donations, and original unreleased music. Each artist was asked to make a song dedicated to the barn, about the barn. We think it's a pretty amazing collection of what has become known as 'midwest hardcore'. In the end, all profits go directly to the owners, and you get a damn fine listen. Limited to 500 worldwide."
