This is what Infinity is all about, love, friendship & selflessness. Because what matter most is family and friends.

Bisk is back with a bang as he prepares to take us all on a trip to Gutter City. The Swamp Harbour general has been steadily releasing solid project after solid project, laying waste to the idea that quality and quantity are mutually exclusive. Gutter City is some of his rawest material to date, thanks to Bisk's natural talent for force feeding the listener grimy imagery and the dankest stories from life in the bits. Combine that with production from the likes of Sam Zircon, Morriarchi, Sumgii, 2Late and 19.thou$and, as well as Bisk himself and it looks set to become this summer's soundtrack for the streets. There are features from the likes of fellow swamp lord Stinkin Slumrok and cult favourites, Sniff, Sly Moon and Jack Danz, plus Manchester's finest, Dubbul-O, Sleazy F Baby & Black Josh.

The Streets’ first two albums ‘Original Pirate Material’ and ‘A Grand Don’t Come For Free’ helped to make the UK hip-hop/garage scene a force to be reckoned with on a global scale, and established Mike Skinner as a lyricist with a gift for delivering insightful observations about everyday life. Long out of print, both albums will be repressed and released on double vinyl on March 30th.Originally released in 2002, ‘Original Pirate Material’ remains one of the most influential albums of its generation, and bridged the gap between UK garage and grime. Featuring the breakthrough hit ‘Has It Come To This’ and era-defining anthems such as ‘Weak Become Heroes’ and ‘Let’s Push Things Forward’, it made Skinner a spokesman for a generation.

Limited 25th Anniversary Edition on double vinyl!At a time when hip-hop was determined to snap your neck, a young, hip trio from Brooklyn (by way of Seattle, Philly, and Brazil) conspired on an uncommonly smooth new sound and freaky way of speak, a titanically chill expression of Black bohemia loaded with jazz idiom and a subversive Marxist bent—and pushed it worldwide via an undeniable crossover hit.Digable Planets’ 1993 debut, Reachin’ (A New Refutation of Time and Space), unexpected to all involved, produced a massive radio hit in “Rebirth Of Slick (Cool Like Dat)”, which won the 1994 Grammy for Best Rap Performance by Duo or Group. Unduly lumped into an “alternative rap” subgenre they chafed at, the Dig Plans were dismissed by some as one-hit wonders, coming out of nowhere; but the Digable Planets concept, and what became Reachin’, had been in the works for close to five years, as group leader Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler wrote music and soaked up game in multiple cities, navigating the industry of hip-hop’s golden age.In the end, Butler, Mary Anne “Ladybug Mecca” Vieira, and Craig “Doodlebug” Irving came together to create a seamlessly articulated vision of urbane hiphop cool with an uncommonly literary bent that subtly pushed the hip-hop genre’s frames of reference and added breadth to rap music’s burgeoning political philosophy. Drawing on inspiration from Butler’s jazzbo father, the Black Panthers, Jose Luis-Borges, the Last Poets, and Jimi Hendrix, Reachin’ posited a theory of “universal beats”, narrated by three unearthly MC’s that had “split to Earth to resurrect the funk”, assuming curious, arthropodic aliases—a nod to the natural collective action of the insect world. In just four years the crew would record two beloved and ambitious LPs before disbanding.Out of print on wax domestically since 1993, Reachin’ captures one of the last gasps of rap music’s jazzy, upbeat adolescence in the early 90’s—those warm, blissed-out grooves every bit as slick as when they were laid way back when. Put this on, roll up with your crew and bug out again with the insect tribe.This first vinyl reissue comes as an expanded double LP for improved sound including deep liner notes by Larry Mizell Jr. interviewing Ishmael “Butterfly” Butler.The 2LP is housed in a deluxe wide spine jacket with booklet, printed inner sleeves and lyrics included for the first time!

Strongly limited edition of 300 copies of "Dreams Of Medina Volume 2" on black vinyl!Originally released digitally on Bandcamp in February 2017, the album features guest appearances and productions by Mach-Hommy, Knxwledge, Al Divino, Sadhu Gold and others. Includes the bonus track "Gold Marble".As an extended member of the Griselda Camp, this is definitely a must-have for fans of artists like Westside Gunn, Conway and Mach Hommy.

Obacht! Berlins Lieblings-Chaot MC Bomberhat lang genug im Busch gesessen und die Konkurrenz bei ihren Missetaten beobachtet. Ab jetzt hagelts wieder Backpfeifen im Wald! Mit „Gebüsch“ veröffentlicht der P-Berg-Ayatollah am 30.03.2017 sein zweites Album bei Proletik, komplett produziert von den Kumpanen Dj Cool Berlin und Pavel. Zielgruppe: Schulabbrecher!

Limited edition of 300 copies of a sweet 6-track EP by Hubert Daviz' buddy Kid Slim!Aiming to kick off a second generation of nu jazz, but experiencing miserable relationships with record labels, Kid Slim decided to quit music in 2011 and become a volunteer gardener at the King’s Palace in Bangkok. Backstein Ru’let is proud to make his only ever recorded material available on vinyl. Blending random jazz samples with upbeat live drumming, these highly outdated sounds are just right for the mediocre hhv.de customer’s listening habits. “This is the underground equivalent to electro swing, putting the Glockenbackviertel to a test!” - Kid Slim

Only 1 per customer!First release of label La Casa Tropical, 2 South African nuggets.. Especially ''Smile'' is a sought after tune by Satari! Tip!Synth heavy South African Disco Boogie from the Mid 80’s. First issued near the end of the synth-pop era that gave boom to the local record industry, this release takes the B-sides off the mysterious group’s first 2 singles recorded at Johannesburg’s legendary Satbel and Ovation Studio. Combining live instruments and an embrace of the electronic gear that was already standard in all studios city wide, the newly formed supergroup was able to create a unique sound at a time the word ‘Disco” was starting to be associated with a different emerging movement.Initially a side project for the group Image (later changing their name to Ymage to avoid confusion after some success in Europe), the new outfit re-enlisted the help of their original producer and long time friend Sidwell Duda, followed with the addition of novice artist and songwriter Bibi Msomi . Their first release was a new take on a song they had recorded for their hit EP which became their first record to see a run outside their home country. Snuck on the B side was a steady 4/4 beat with fat bass synth and the quick funky keyboard licks Don Laka was known for. After an unsuccessful debut the newly formed group hoped to draw attention with a single front man. For their second release they used a tactic common amongst producers 10 years prior during the reign of the 7” single. Bringing two of his own compositions to the session, but unable to lead the group himself, Bibi’s independence and unique voice led to the creation of the ultra suave, party playboy known as Nicky Love. Although neither single saw any real success and failed to make it past an initial run of 500 copies, the now backing group known as Satari managed to produce a few more titles into the fast changing market that left their sound behind.

Limitiert auf 250 Kopien!Zwischen 2008 und 2010 wurde der Musiker Rocco Vice zu einer Berliner Kiez-Legende. Er spielte mitreißende Konzerte in Alt-Berliner-Kneipen, an Orten, die neben neuen hippen Szene-Bars auszusterben drohten. Doch wenn Rocco Vice spielte, waren alle Kneipen voll. Zusätzlich veröffentlichte Rocco Vice die Schallplatten „Jubeljahre“ und „Schall und Rausch“, während der CD-Markt durch illegales File-Sharing einbrach. Kurz bevor er über die Stadtgrenzen hinaus berühmt werden sollte, wurde es stiller um Rocco Vice: weniger Konzerte, keine Nachfolgeplatte, Geldprobleme und ein zerfallendes Umfeld. Heute ist Rocco Vice nur noch ein Name, der aufkommt an den Stammtischen der Kneipen, in denen Rocco Vice seine Konzerte spielte. Was ist mit Rocco Vice passiert? Wo treibt er sich rum? Macht er noch Musik? Und wird man Rocco Vice irgendwann wieder live auf der Bühne erleben dürfen?hhv.de veröffentlicht am 30.03.2018 exklusiv eine limitierte Neuauflage.

Uneven Paths: Deviant Pop From Europe, 1980-1991' is compiled by record connoisseur Raphael Top-Secret and label man Jamie Tiller that brings together twenty one tracks from across the continent; exploring the more unusual and unexpected sides of pop music produced during that period. Printed Inner sleeves.Drawing material from cult experimental artists alongside one-off independent musical projects rescued from the fringes, ’Uneven Paths’ focuses on a selection of tracks that go beyond the confines of mainstream pop music but which also transcend expectations of much of the ’experimental’ music of the time. This is music with one foot in the avant-garde and another foot firmly rooted within the sensibilities of Pop; where Jazz musicians detour into Synth-Pop, Punk bands break into Boogie jams, and student doctors jam out on odd melodies with synthesizers and drum machines during their night shifts.

Almost 2 years after the success of the album THE TONY ALLEN EXPERIMENTS and a few months after the release of the 7inch AMORE, Nu Guinea return to the scene with a new LP published by their newborn label NG RECORDS.After touring the world looking for sounds suitable for their vibrations, NU GUINEA decided to go back to square one, Napoli, where Massimo Di Lena and Lucio Aquilina were born and raised. They watched their city from a distance reconstructing its energy from their studio in Berlin, calibrating the synths on the meridian of Vesuvius, the volcano that has always protected and threatened Napoli.NUOVA NAPOLI is the result of a long musical research that has become a historical investigation on the sound that shaped Napoli during the ‘70s and ‘80s, starting from the contamination of genres (disco, jazz-funk, African rhythms) which ended up in Nu Guinea’s DNA.In this album the synthesizers fill the spaces between the past and the future, tightening in a single body acoustic instruments, electronics and voices in Neapolitan dialect. It is the first time that the duo has worked with such a large group of musicians, some of whom are exponents of the contemporary Neapolitan scene.WARNING: We recommend listening to Nuova Napoli while walking in the alleys of Napoli’s historic center, around wet clothes hanging and street vendors on tiny three-wheelers.

Sons Of Kemet are born of many vital elements – including a name that nods to ancient Egyptian culture, and a line-up that comprises some of the most progressive 21st-century talents in British jazz and beyond. Band-leader/composer/sax/clarinet don Shabaka Hutchings (himself named after a Nubian pharaoh-philosopher) brings together his fiery vision alongside London-based bandmates Tom Skinner and Max Hallet (forming a dynamo duo on drums) and Theon Cross on tuba. On their third studio album, Your Queen Is a Reptile, they bring a genre defying approach which celebrates the restless exploration of identity within the Caribbean diaspora within the U.K. The collection was recorded in London with a host of guests spanning the breadth of the UK scene including jungle legend Congo Natty and poet Joshua Idehen.

Eenie meenie. Ma-ma-marsi zu dem Mo ist zurück! Gut möglich, dass anderswo gerade alles drunter und drüber geht, der Planet vielleicht sogar schon verloren ist. Aber Marsi war zweimal auf der 3. Und jetzt ist römisch 5 plus Erde. Was? Ja. »Verde«. Ein Stück heile Welt - und dieist natürlich richtig schön grün und weit entfernt von all dem hiesigen irdischen Irrsinn. Vor allem ist es eine Welt, in der auf Freitag den 13ten selbstverständlich »Samstag der 14te«folgt. Der Tag, an dem der Spuk im Hochhaus vorbei und sämtliche Schreckgestalten in Frührente geschickt werden. Denn wenn Norman Bates auf der Loveparade die letzten drei Pillen klinkt und Pennywise vorm Billigsupermarkt schlaffe Ballons in den Himmel steigen lässt, ist auch für Marsi und The Friendly Ghost erstmal Zapfenstreich. Also ab aufs Land, eine Runde Füße hochlegen und Videospiele zocken.Aber auch dort ist Marsi immer noch Marsi, das letzte grüne Einhorn mit der Klapperschlange um den Hals und dem 2Pac-Tattoo auf der Haut. Der, der alle von Tabaluga bis Steven Spielberg unter den Tisch kifft. So einer braucht kein »Photoshop«. Denn Marsi ist ungeschminkte Wahrheit statt künstlicher Makeover und sagt auch mal, wenn er nach zehn Litern Sprite »Aus dem Nebel« steigt und merkt, dass seine Zeit bald vorbei sein könnte.Aber bis das so weit ist, verbiegt er für »I Love My Go Pro« mit Salsa359 internationale Nasenwhiskey-Hymnen zu Lobliedern auf supersimple Selfiekameras. Egal ob im August oder September, an Bongs geschnallt im Breitbildmodus oder beim interkontinentalen #travelgram- das leuchtend rote dritte Auge sieht alles. Auch, wenn Marsi mit grüner Kutte und Pornobalken an der Seite von Jadula Rasa die »Vespa Gang« anführt, mit Kickdown, Karacho und Currywürsten in XXL die Straßen unsicher macht und dabei die Sons of Energy auf den Plan ruft.Die Beats von Nobodys Face, Ghanaian Stallion, Bazzazian, Dead Rabbit, Robot Koch, Kid Simius, Ben DMA und The Krauts brummen und britzeln in bester Green-Berlin-Manier wie die allerfeinste Synapsenkirmes. Überall drückt, ruckelt und zuckelt es, ständig rasselt, rumpeltund pumpelt irgendwo etwas. Und dazu baut Marsi Joints wie Eselsbrücken und Eselsbrücken wie Joints und hat für jeden einen Heliumhalbsatz oder qualmgeschwängerten Querverweis übrig.Mit Walking Trett tauscht Marsi auf »Immer wenn ich high bin« ha-ha-haha-highe Horrorgeschichten über den Backstage von Bonez MC aus, während er in »DBFDM« mit Menschenfreund88 die unreflektierte Smartphonesucht bekämpft und sich in »Chicken Terror« für alle Gockel, Glucken und Küken stark macht. Denn Marsimoto ist einer von ihnenund hat für alle Kaputten, Geschredderten und Verlorenen genau so viel Liebe übrig wie für Mayas, Maoris, Mogadischus Schlauchbootpiraten und alle andern Menschen und Tiere. »Friede sei mit dir«, ach was, mit uns allen. Grenzenlose Freiheit, grenzenlose Liebe. Auf dieRevolution!

Alle 3 "KitschKrieg" EP's gibt es endlich auch auf Vinyl. SoulForce x hhv.de!

It's Gou's second Ninja Tune release, following 2016's Seek For Maktoop, which landed on their club-focused Technicolour sublabel. The Berlin-based artist also sings on the new EP, which includes three tracks that each cater to a specific context—open air, warm-up and "proper party," she says. "I tried to draw on all my influences of the last few years," she explains, "from electro, African music, early '90s house music and also techno, especially Maurice Fulton and DMX Krew." She closed out her RA podcast this week with the EP cut "It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)."

Limited colored vinyl edition in custom tri-fold jacket including 12-page photo booklet!The people’s voice of Venice Beach, Evidence, has returned to deliver his third solo album, “Weather or Not”. Since the Grammy Award-winning artist’s last solo release, “Cats & Dogs”, he’s delivered some remarkable group projects, including Step Brothers’ “Lord Steppington” with close ally Alchemist, and Directors of Photography with seminal supergroup Dilated Peoples. He’s also immersed himself into his studio, producing beats for a wide range of artists that includes Vince Staples, Fashawn, Roc Marciano, Madchild, Defari and more. By now, it should be clear the seasoned veteran has no plans of slowing, and no hopes of satiating his hunger. “Weather or Not” represents the fourth and final chapter in Ev’s Weatherman series before beginning the next saga, but this chapter will be remembered as the finest. The album features an all-star lineup of guests and friends, including Slug (Atmosphere), Rakaa (Dilated Peoples), Alchemist, Styles P, Rapsody, Jonwayne, Defari, Krondon, Khrysis, Mach Hommy and Catero. While Evidence holds his own on the boards, he’s also tapped a stellar cast of producers to share duties with, including Alchemist, DJ Premier, Nottz, DJ Babu, Twiz The Beat Pro, Sam I Yam and Budgie. As Evidence modestly suggests, quoting a MC Lyte classic, this new album is even “better than before, as if that was possible.” LP Packaging includes a custom-built tri-fold jacket including blue colored 2LP vinyl, 12-page photo booklet containing work from famed photographer Stephen Vanasco, metallic printed pockets and free digital download card.

"Beppo S. und Peter B. haben abgerechnet. Mit dem zweiten Longplayer der beiden Wahlleipziger pendelt sich alles schlußendlich bei plusminusnull ein. Zwischen Zuversicht und Zukunftsängsten, Geltungsdrang und Selbstzweifeln, zeichnen die beiden Musiker ein authentisches Panorama ihrer Leben. Das plusminusnull eines ihrer persönlichsten Alben geworden ist, zeigt auch die Auswahl an Unterstützern auf und hinter der Bühne. Mit dabei sind ihre Freunde Chezz One, WARPATH, AzudemSK, Upfront und Phaeb. Von den Beats, intuitiv organisch und an Jazz und Moody-Blues orientiert, bis zum Producing ist alles handgemacht von Beppo S. Das macht plusminusnull inklusive handverlesener Features zum ersten Album aus purem Beppo und Peter-Sound, ergänzt durch drei Instrumentale von den Soulbrüdern dude26 und Django. Unterm Strich ist plusminusnull kein nüchternes Fazit der letzten Jahre, sondern eine Sammlung von Momentaufnahmen und Rückblicken, die mal bissig, mal versöhnlich eine Breitbild-Aufnahme der beiden Leipziger vor dem inneren Auge entstehen lässt."

DJ Koze might be one of the world’s best producers, but above all he’s a DJ, and it’s his DJ ear that governs. Just as in a great set, so with his releases: “Seeing Aliens” came out of nowhere, a big buzzing beast of a track, to announce that Koze was back on the scene and prime everyone for the coming album, knock knock. But now that Koze has your attention, it’s time to remind everyone what’s most important about club music, pull things back, take a turn to the left, and get deep into the groove. Thus “Pick Up": the second single from knock knock is 100% pure groove, doubly so in the extended 12″ version. In a sense it’s incredibly familiar - it is essentially a filter disco record, very close to something you could imagine coming out of Paris around the turn of the millennium.

Nach “Stecks, Schmiers & Suff” kommt Shacke One mit “Bossen & Bumsen” um die Ecke, komplett produziert von Achim Funk. 15 dicke Dinger mit Features von MC Bomber, Morlockk Dilemma und Tiger104er. Stößchen!Die LP enthält einen Downloadcode für das gesamte Album.

The Streets’ first two albums ‘Original Pirate Material’ and ‘A Grand Don’t Come For Free’ helped to make the UK hip-hop/garage scene a force to be reckoned with on a global scale, and established Mike Skinner as a lyricist with a gift for delivering insightful observations about everyday life. Long out of print, both albums will be repressed and released on double vinyl on March 30th.‘A Grand Don’t Come For Free’ emerged two years after their breakthrough debut album and The Streets had already become an international phenomenon. This time around, Mike Skinner constructed an album with an on-going narrative that was by turns hilarious, touching and energising. ‘Dry Your Eyes’ became The Streets’ first #1 single, while ‘Fit But You Know It’ and ‘Blinded By The Lights’ both hit the Top 10.

The title ‘Persona’ was inspired by Ingmar Bergman’s film of the same name, specifically a shot in the opening credits of a child reaching out to touch a woman’s face on a screen, which is shifting between one face and another. This powerful image struck Ryan and it inspired the album’s main theme — an exploration of the persona, the difference between how we see ourselves and how others see us, the spaces in between; between states, people, light and dark, the inner persona and the outer persona.“My music is generally inward looking. I like finding something about the self within music, that doesn't have to be specific but maybe asks something or reveals something. This record is a continuation on the self through electronic sounds. Like Legowelt once said ‘a synthesiser is like a translator for unknown emotions’, which I think sums up what I am trying to do. I think all these emotions we have make up our persona. So in a way by finding new ones you alter or expand your persona. And that is what I want my music to try to do. I deliberately aimed to be more sonically diverse with this record. I wanted to experiment more. I wanted to create new sounds and new emotions.” — Rival Consoles

Official Mr Bongo reissue. Replica original artwork.Mr Bongo brings another Brazilian rarity to the masses with this sublime reissue of Tim Maia’s Disco Club. Recorded in 1978, it’s a latter-period gem from the larger than life legend, combining the glitz and glamour of disco’s heyday with Maia’s raw funk and soul roots. When Maia first heard Little Richard as a teenager, he knew what kind of singer and artist he wanted to be. Five formative years spent in the US, where he ran wild in NYC and joined a doo-wop group called the Ideals, did little to dampen his enthusiasm for black music. Stirred by the civil rights movement in the US and driven by a punk spirit, Maia went on to blaze his own trail through the early 70s over the course of four successful albums for Polydor. Moving away from the straight MPB, Tropicalia and international rock dominating the airwaves, his sound represented a new black Brazilian consciousness. When he sang, he could be raspy and defiant one moment … and then romantic and reflective the next. But always on a groove and with a hook. It was an irresistible combination.Yet by 1977 he was bankrupt and in limbo having first joined a religious cult called Superior National and then alienated listeners with his first album sung entirely in English. To complicate matters further, Brazil was feeling the Saturday Night Fever. Gloria Gaynor, Chic and Kool & the Gang were dominating the charts and filling hotspots such as New York City Discotheque in Ipanema and Frenetic Dancing Days in the Gávea Mall. Maia left his usual band and went into the legendary Estudios Level with a mighty ensemble of Rio’s finest including Paulinha Braga on drums, Jamil Joanes on bass, Robson Jorge on clarinet, Hyldon De Souza on guitar, Sidinho on percussion, trombonists Edmundo Maciel and Darcy Seixas, and Juarez Assis on tenor sax.Arranger and keyboardist Lincoln Olivetti was a crucial presence during these sessions. He added that all-important string flourish and brassy joy to the uptempo tracks while giving the star enough room to express himself. The album kicks off with a trio of floor fillers: the exuberant party starter ‘A Fim De Voltar’, a sing-a-long anthem in ‘Acenda O Farol’ and the undeniably funky hit ‘Sossego’ (file that one next to Fatback).But then Maia drops it down and gets existential on ‘All I Want’, questioning the meaning of happiness. He also shows his tender side on slow burners such as ‘Murmúrio’ (written by the great Cassiano) and ‘Pais E Filhos’, the latter featuring a supersoft bed of harmonies you can't help but lay down on. But the party ain’t over and mid-tempo groover ‘Juras’ gets the feet moving again before ‘Jhony’ sends us swaying off into the night.Maia’s appetite for excess would eventually get the better of him. But Disco Club is the sound of an unpredictable genius on top form. Get ready for the time of your life.

Our latest examination of Esoteric, Modal & Progressive Jazz of the 20th Century has taken us to Japan. The liberating force of jazz has been created and felt all around the world, but few nations on earth embraced the jazz message with the passion and intensity of Japan. From the dawn of the jazz age to the present day, Japanese audiences have been renowned tastemakers, enthusiasts and champions of the music – in the 1980s, Japan was the biggest per capita market in the world for jazz records, and it has even been said that Japanese jazz fans kept the jazz record industry alive through the lean years of the 1970s, when the music fell from commercial favour in the land of its birth.But while the jazz aficionados of Japan are celebrated as sophisticated fans and consumers of the music, comparatively little is known outside Japan of the remarkable and abundant music produced by generations of Japanese jazz musicians. Numerous Japanese jazzers have found enormous success on the international stage – Toshiko Akiyoshi, Sadao Watanabe, Teramasu Hino, and many others are household names among jazz listeners all over the world, and with good reason. But if such global figures are put aside, the stunning heritage of Japanese jazz remains poorly understood outside Japan. As a result, the work of many celebrated Japanese jazumen has remained largely unknown to international audiences, and the extraordinary scope and depth of Japanese jazz has not been widely recognised.Compiled for the Spiritual Jazz series in collaboration with the celebrated collector and DJ Yusuke Ogawa (Deep Jazz Reality, Tokyo), this 2CD/twin set of double LPs aims to correct that omission by uncovering the uniquely deep sound of esoteric, modal and progressive jazz from Japan – music of the heart, soul and Japanese spirit!Each 2LP set comes complete with OBI strip and thick, textured sleeve. Our extensive liner notes extend onto printed inners, and are in both Japanese and English.

Almost 10 years have passed since Onra arrived with the charmingly eccentric Chinoiseries LP. 32 Hip-Hop beats formed the sample-based project - dusty Chinese vinyl hissing and crackling throughout – resulting in an intriguing and spontaneous mix of the producers interest in exploring a newly-discovered style of Music with his love for classic Hip-Hop production. Using the style of analogue MPC production combined with the somewhat restrictive record sampling of strictly Chinese Music records, he has been able to be creative over three volumes, an amount of 100 instrumentals, despite the challenge of finding more obviously standout samples in Chinese music. The Chinoiseries projects are the type of albums that invites the listener to play it from beginning to end, in order to really enjoy the trip and appreciate the variety of rhythms and textures spread over those 32 short instrumentals. In that way, “Pt.3” is no different to its predecessors, but the originality of the samples, the curious harmonies and the odd-drum patterns still makes the album sounds as fresh as the first one. Onra finishes this epic trilogy with class as a result of extended record digging across the Far East and the producer's own development over the preceding 10 years. As a producer who has released records inspired by 80's Funk, 90's Hip-Hop and R'n'B, Electronic and even a Spiritual Jazz project, “Pt. 3” brings this stylised set to a close. Normally a man of few words, Onra has his own take on the three Volumes: I see the first Chinoiseries as a trip, inspired by my own first travel to Asia, each beat representing one particular moment of the journey, the second one, more like a soundtrack to a movie, each beat representing a different scene, and the third one, I tried to create a dark, smoky and mysterious cinematic atmosphere so you could create your own movie in your head. For this last episode, I just really wanted to have fun with this type of material for the very last time. I dug deeper than ever and I have tried to do as many different rhythm patterns as possible, from various influences like Hip-Hop (from different eras), to Bossa to Indian Music to Psych Rock, Soul, etc. and try to portray a different image of Chinese Music.

Limited edition for Record Store Day 2018!Only one copy per customer!There are West Coast classics, and then there isMusic To Driveby, the third LP from the group thatbirthed MC Eiht: Compton’s Most Wanted. Althoughthe group started in the late ‘80s with multiple MCs(including Tha Chill and Boom Bam), by 1992 Eiht waspulling the group’s vocal weight – supported by DJMike T on turntables and production – and evenproducing and co-producing tracks.Music To Driveby might lack beats-per-minute variety,but to fans that’s not a bad thing. Across the board,this is mid-tempo, super deep, funky hip-hop, made forcars creeping along boulevards across the West andSouth, and it’s about as good as it gets for suchpurposes. Just about filler-free, the album strutsintensely and with purpose, as Eiht throws tales of Calistreet life at fans for an hour straight, almost withouta break.This solo marathon is given a respite only once, withScarface’s guest spot on “N 2 Deep,” an excellenthood roller supported by a soulful guitar lick sampledfrom Lyn Collins’ “Do Your Thing.” Elsewhere, Eiht rollsalone and intensely, on cuts like the classic smashsingle “Hood Took Me Under”; the album’s secondsingle and Tim Dog attack “Who’s Fu**ing Who?”; thehometown big-up “Compton 4 Life”; and hustle taleslike “Jack Mode” and “I Gots To Get Over.”After this album, Eiht released more classics under hisown name, and with similar fan worship. It was thecontinuation of a legendary career and Music ToDriveby still ranks high on anyone’s “West CoastLegends” playlist.

After decades in the making Finders Keepers Records are proud to present the first-ever pressing of Serge Gainsbourg’s most elusive and coveted soundtrack studio recordings – co-written, arranged and orchestrated by the genius Jean-Claude Vannier (Histoire De Melody Nelson) during what many consider to be the dynamic duo’s most definitive creative period. Believed to have been lost in a studio fire by Gainsbourg enthusiasts for over forty years (a myth that also shrouds Morricone’s lost Danger Diabolik soundtrack) the misplaced master-tapes for the drug-fuelled/Mai 68 cash-in/road-movie Les Chemins De Katmandou have been widely considered the final audio jigsaw piece in an immaculate discography/filmography thus earning this soundtrack bone-fide Holy Grail status amongst the most avid disc detectives. Featuring the original crack team of Paris based players now recognised as French library music royalty, this LP epitomises the inimitable musical direction and expert psychedelic pop musicianship that graced classic Gainsbourg/Vannier soundtracks like La Horse, Cannabis and Sex Shop. Laying the stylistic, future-proof foundations for subsequent decades of forward-thinking Gallic funk mastery. Comprising Vannier’s signature recipe of thick plucked bass lines, close-micced drums, biting Clavinet and Eastern influenced strings and percussion (and a sprinkling of subtle traditional French instrumentation) the soundtrack to Les Chemins De Katmandou (aka The Road To Katmandu or The Pleasure Pit) captures Vannier and Gainsbourg in the first year of their creative partnership capturing their unique embryonic energy.

We are presently in the post-Marcberg era of Rap. After Roc Marciano released his solo opus in Spring 2010, a new continuum began which gathered tremendous momentum in 2012 following the release of his Metal Clergy compatriot Ka’s “Grief Pedigree” and Roc’s amazingly concise sophomore effort Reloaded. Subsequently, a divergent path opened in modern Rap heavily influenced by the sonics, tone, and aesthetic of those three projects. Since then Roc Marciano has released a critically acclaimed producer album (Marci Beaucoup) bookended by the release of his project “The Pimpire Strikes Back” in multiple formats. In the years since this string of releases, a new crop of emcees and producers emerged heavily inspired and influenced by Roc’s oeuvre while many others’ careers have been left doing the running man in their wave…With multiple modern Rap classics already under his Ferragamo belt, last year Roc Marciano liberated the first half of his two part project titled Rosebudd’s Revenge. If the initial offering showcased Marc re-establishing himself as the innovator of the present Rap wave then “RR2 - the Bitter Dose” will cement Roc Marciano’s status as its linchpin. From the opening bars of “Respected” to when “Power” finally fades out he fashions another top to bottom high end sonic experience that will be both envied and emulated for years to come while he administers a double dose of pimpin’.Production on “RR2: The Bitter Dose” is handled by Roc Marciano in addition to Animoss (Arch Druids) (on “Bohemian Grove” & “Happy Endings”), Don Cee (Arch Druids) (on “C.V.S” & “Major League”) and Element) (on “Respected” & “67 Lobby”). Knowledge The Pirate appears on both “Bohemian Grove” and “Major League” while Action Bronson contributes a verse to “Corniche.” Whether it comes to hard bars, slick talk or hustler wisdom Roc Marciano is unmatched. The Bitter Dose is nothing more than an American master lecturing a captive audience. It’s a guidebook on how to manipulate the English language and convey ideas and concepts and visuals that will evoke a wide range of emotions in listeners. The wait is over. Thank God for Roc Marci.

The borders between London’s musical tribes have always been porous. For Yussef Kamaal, the sound of the capital – with its hum of jungle, grime and broken beat – has shaped a self-taught, UK-tipped approach to playing jazz. In the states, the genre’s long-running to-and-fro with hip hop – from Robert Glasper to Kamasi Washington – has reimagined it within US culture. On Black Focus, Yussef Kamaal frame jazz inside the bass-saturated, pirate radio broadcasts of London. Taking inspiration from the anything-goes spirit of ‘70s jazz-funk, on albums by Herbie Hancock or the Mahavishnu Orchestra, it’s a loose template with plenty of room to experiment. The pair, made up of Yussef Dayes and Kamaal Williams (aka Henry Wu), have had little in the way of formal training. Instead, their musical tastes – and approach to playing – are indebted to Thelonious Monk’s piano as much as the drum programming of Kaidi Tatham. “It's all about the drums and the keys,” Williams says. “Not to take anything from anyone else, but that's where it all originates from: the chords, the rhythm of the chords and the drums.” Born out of a one-off live session to perform Williams’ solo material for Boiler Room, it soon became a project in its own right. Coming together as Yussef Kamaal, they played a series of live shows where little more than a chord progression would be planned before taking to the stage Bringing that unspoken understanding to the recording sessions (engineered by Malcolm Catto of The Heliocentrics), the unplanned, telepathically spawned grooves retain the raw energy of their live shows. “It's not so much about complete arrangement, it's more about flow,” Dayes says. “A lot of the tracks are just made spontaneously – Henry will be playing two chords, I'll fill in the groove and we'll just leave the arrangement naturally.” Both hail from South East London, crossing paths in 2007 as teenagers playing their first pub gigs around Peckham and Camberwell. Dayes drums for cosmically-inclined, afrobeat outfit United Vibrations, while Williams – on top of drumming and playing keys in different incarnations over the years – has made waves with his solo, synth-draped house 12"s for much-fêted labels like 22a and Rhythm Section.

Piecelock 70 presents this beat tape project by LA Mike better known as Double K of People Under The Stairs."This project is a collection of beats from the years 2000-05 that was made at my grandmother's house. Using the SP-1200 and MPC 2000(mainly SP-1200). With only 10 seconds of sampling time, a shitload of jazz/funk records and blunts...I managed to live on Pantry's pizza and no sleep. Coming straight from the mix out into the console, it sounds as raw as when I was making these tracks. This is only the first installment so keep your eye on the ONE for the next.

The third album from Ill Considered has been a revelatory part of the journey for its members. While the first album was completely improvised in a two hour session involving all four musicians and no pre-written tunes, the second album was a live gig recorded at The Crypt Jazz Club, London, involving mainly compositions ( taken from the first album, as well as new tunes and some from Wildflower (the other band in which Leon Brichard and Idris Rahman collaborate with drummer Tom Skinner). The creation of Ill Considered 3 was quite different again. A session was booked at the same studio in which Ill Considered’s first album was created, and the four musicians met (this time with Satin Singh on percussion) with a view to recording some pre-written melodies as well as some fresh, improvised material. The band soon realised that although the pre-written tunes were to some degree working nicely, there was no comparison with the vibe, energy, spontaneity and overall freedom of the fully improvised material. There is a musical freedom that this particular combination of musicians needs to express - throwing caution to the wind they create soundscapes, atmospheres, dreamy groove based journeys immediately in the moment, held together by deeply felt musical interaction and the interspersion of hooky bass lines and melodies. Using simple but effective motifs, the band again manage to build from delicate, intimate moments of emotion to screaming climaxes and drum and bass inspired head-bangers. Meditative and spiritual in essence, there are a wide range of textures in this album: Djinn has an ethereal, mystical calm about it, whilst the bass harmonics and minimal percussion of Nada Brahma give an almost Gamelan-like texture. Delusion and Meditation have a head-nodding, deep and dirty jazz-funk-inspired restless energy punctuated by abstract melodic hooks that stay with you long after you’ve finished listening. Along with the improvised band tracks, there are three short solo tracks from bass, drums and sax - again created in the spirit of freedom.

Since the day Nils first encountered the impressive studio of a family friend, he had envisioned to create one of his own at such a large scale. Fast forward to the present day and Nils is now the proud host of Saal 3, part of the historical 1950s East German Funkhaus building beside the River Spree. It is here where he has spent most of his time deconstructing and reconstructing the entire space from the cabling and electricity to the woodwork, before moving on to the finer elements; building a pipe organ and creating a mixing desk all from scratch with the help of his friends. This is somewhere music can be nurtured and not neglected, and where he can somewhat fulfil his pursuit of presenting music to the world as close to his imagination as possible.His previous albums have often been accompanied with a story, such as Felt (2011) where he placed felt upon the hammers of the piano out of courtesy to his neighbours when recording late at night in his old bedroom studio, and the following album Screws (2012) when injuring his thumb forced him to play with only nine fingers. His new album is born out of the freedom that his new environment provided, allowing Nils to explore without any restrictions and to keep it All about the Melody.
