Great bit of deep house on this Daniel Solar remix of Dana Bergquist & Peder G - Rapanui. The remix is included in the second release of new remixes. Coming later this year once again on Brown Eyed Boyz. Dana Bergquist & Peder G - Rapanui (Daniel Solar Remix) by danielsolar

Image via Buck.TV [ Prime Numbers ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy CD ) ( buy mp3s ) Recently I've been thinking a bit about a strand of popular music I'm labeling (in the absence of the talents of serial genre christeners and esoteric nomenclature know-it-alls Simon Reynolds or David Keenan) "British whimsy." I'm talking here about Ivor Cutler, Position Normal, Basil Kirchin, Matthew Herbert, the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and Robert Wyatt. Not to be confused with the cloying twee [...]

[ Planet E ] ( buy vinyl ) I feel about LCD Soundsystem's "Throw" the same way I feel about the Hollywood remake of superb Swedish creepfest Let The Right One In (retitled Let Me In for the Stateside version). Sure it's perfectly adequate, but why bother? If you're reading this site, you already know how amazing the Paperclip People original (included here) is, and I can't objectively say that the LCD Soundsystem cover is bad. It's easy to see why James Murphy and his merry [...]

Peder 's music is complex but a well balanced melange of soul fueled electronic and bespoke indie pop for the new decade. His new album Dirt & Gold is both noisy and relaxed, with unpredictable tempos, a slew of talented singers, and musicians. Influenced by the likes of Tom Waits , Nina Simone , Chet Atkins , Django Reinhardt , and Ray Charles , you'll find surf an essence of guitar, hip-hop, french sounding film music, Draculaorgan, ghost pop, 1980s-Synth, and more. MP3: [...]

Click image to download full album Sounds like: Skalpel, Shawn Lee, DJ Vadim "Peder - Love Lost City (Feat Oh Land)" What's so good? Danish producer Peder has been around the block a time or two, drifting from careers as a radio host, actor, photography, film composer, DJ, producer, and songwriter. If that wasn't enough, he has won a Grammy for his 1999 comedy album, an Emmy for a Danish TV series, and recently released his second solo [...]

[ Live At Robert Johnson ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) While last year's middling full-length Care didn't quite have the man once dubbed "the coolest m.f. in minimal house" showing up Oslo, Eklo and all those other minimal house m.f.s biting his style, another LoSoul release in 2009 was definitely better than a Bitshit . Pardon my potty mouth, but Peter Kremeier's For Disco Only edit of the B-52s "Love Shack" was neat work with the scalpel, doing everything a good nip'n'tuck should and definitely [...]

[ Curle Petite ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) The combination of Discogs and YouTube has revolutionized the second-hand vinyl market over the past few years. Discogs has democratized record buying to the extent that you can buy almost any record you like - as long as you're prepared to pay the often exorbitant asking price. Allied to the fact you can then check on YouTube if that track your favorite DJ played last night sounds quite as good now as it did at silly o'clock on a [...]

Photo by Nicolas Alan Cope [ Dial ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) When questioned about the mildly provocative title of his sophomore album as Efdemin in a recent interview , Philip Sollman deadpanned that he had merely chosen it as bait for journalists. It certainly generated a good deal of hot air on the Resident Advisor message boards, but Sollman went on to explain that while this was far from a Jack [...]

Placard by Jeremy Deller "We know, we know, the current re-issue wave of classic house music platters is a bit much - especially the unlawful ones with photocopied artwork." These are the words of Running Back's Gerd Janson from the press sheet for his own label's contribution to the tsunami, a reissue of Zaki Dee, Rob Mello and Luke Solomon's Heaven and Earth EP from the Prescription label. And Janson's right, the wave has turned into a deluge. But let's not behave like King Canute about this, nothing [...]

Nebraska's Mixed Up Music For Mixed Up People is, to use Morgan Geist's term, an "unclassic" of an album. Slept on by most when it was released by DownLow Recordings in 2008, a couple of years later it not only stands up to comparable efforts by Geist's group Metro Area and Recloose ( Cardiology ), but joins them as one of the best house albums of the last decade. As the title of the album, and those two reference points might suggest, Mixed Up Music For Mixed Up People is not your average four-four thump, melding [...]

Artwork by Travess Smalley [ Dial ] ( buy CD ) ( buy mp3s ) Like the Missoni their roster modeled in a recent photoshoot for German magazine De:bug, the Dial label is a family affair, with a long history and an instantly recognizable aesthetic. Despite both "brands" diversification into (among other things) hotels and indie lounge-pop respectively, they are still most widely recognized by their original product: knitwear and a very particular brand of romantic, [...]

Running Back is one of the most consistent labels about. Only in terms of quality, mind. Consistency doesn't equal homogeneity, and frankly Running Back can be all over the shop stylistically. Ravey, wildpitch house from Radio Slave one release, Robert Dietz's desiccated Mannheim funk the next, Running Back is unafraid to thumb its nose at genre purists. This past year has been a particularly fruitful and varied one, combining essential reissues of the famous Prescription label and bizarre Japanese sound effects with original and enervating productions from Dplay, the mysterious Precious System, Lil Tony, Jacob Korn and of course the [...]

Painting by Eric Fortune [ Prime Numbers ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) "A lot of people have to work. You gotta go home, you take a bath. A lot of people, you go home and fuck your wife. A lot of people go home, you cut your grass. I go home, and I fuck that motherfuckin' MPC all fuckin' night." I was thinking about Kenny Dixon Jr's recent eruditions on domesticity and art while listening to Fudge Fingas' [...]

Artwork by Christian Faur [ Hour House Is Your Rush ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy mp3s ) When I think of adjectives to describe acid (the music), words spring to mind that could just as easily describe acid (the solution): "Harsh," "coruscating" or "abrasive," all words I associate with the fierce 303s of Phuture, Sleezy D's "I've Lost Control," Mike Ink, Dr Walker, Unit Mobeius or more recently, Legowelt and Bunker Records. Rare is the track written with [...]

One of the positive aspects of living in a reissue culture is that people who didn't get their props first time round do so on the rebound. Merwyn Sanders and Eric Lewis are two such guys. They released only three records in their short-lived career, but those first two (under the names M.E. and Virgo Four, released on Chicago's legendary Trax label), were compiled into their eponymous album Virgo . Not to be confused with the other Virgo, the house supergroup of Adonis, Marshall Jefferson and Vince Lawrence, the album is regularly described as "the greatest house [...]

Photo by Anna Shelton [ Dial ] ( buy vinyl ) ( buy CD ) ( buy mp3s ) Among the trio of friends - Lawrence, Carsten Jost, Pawel - who founded the Dial label in Hamburg 10 years ago, the latter, Paul Kominek has probably kept the lowest profile, despite being the more senior in terms of release history. Recording as Turner for the defunct Ladomat 2000 since 1998, he received remixes from the likes of Robert Hood, Isolée and [...]
