How long has it been since we've posted some music from Headman ? The answer is, too long . The end of last month saw the release of his ep, " Turning ". The lead track is a very moody indie-dance track very much in the mould of early New Order, it really grows on you ( in a nice way ). There is also a dub of this for the vocal-phobes. Headman: Turning And a gargantuan 9 minute remix from Emperor Machine. Describing a remix [...]
Burning is turning. Watch the video for Headman's great new single "Turning", which features the vocals of Tara, out today on his own label, Relish Recordings . The six-track EP "Turning" EP features two fine remixes of the title track by Emperor Machine, aka Andy Meecham, one half of the hugely influential Chicken Lips, and Scott Fraser, and two remixes of Headman's last single "Be Loved" by Death In Vegas' Richard Fearless and Murphy Jax. Preview the whole thing here . [...]
El suizo/alemán de Headman (Robi Insinna) reparte sus producciones entre el sell Gomma y su propio sello Relish , en este último publicará el 30 de abril (Beatport) y 11 de mayo (resto de plataformas digitales) un nuevo EP llamado 'Turning', un muy buen tema, con tintes ochenteros, con esa voz de Tara (Tara Narayanan) quien ya había colaborado anteriormente con Headman, maravillosa voz y arreglos para el tema, y el tema lo tenemos en 2 versiones, el original y la versión dub del tema, gran tema. Y por [...]
A great release from Airtight Recordings . The label have taken four classic Larry Heard cuts from his '95 album "Dance 20003 on Distance, and handed over the reins to four of their favourite new-skool producers to do their deed with them. The result is quite impressive. The EP, entitled "Distance Revisited", includes Wolf+Lamb's killer boogie edit of "Gentle Warming Sun", Mak and Pasteman rework of "Futuristic Island Life", Emperor Machine's slow machine-funk rendition of "Long Short Story", and Julio Bashmore's amazing version of "And So I Dance", which was featured on his Essential [...]
The Emperor Machine is UK producer Andy Meechum, and he is putting out some pretty sweet spaced-out disco music. It sounds a bit like a soundtrack to a bad 702s sci-fi film, and I mean that in a very very good way. Download: Beats in Space Radio Show Mix (1hr. 11 minutes)
An absolutely magical package coming in March on Airtight Recordings. They've taken four classic Larry Heard cuts from his '95 album 'Dance 20002 on Distance, and handed over the reins to four huge new-skool producers to do their worst/best?! What we are delivered from that premise is an unmistakable Julio Bashmore haunting bounce of 'And So I Dance' that was featured on his recent Essential Mix for BBC Radio 1. This is followed by some deep shuffled goodness from newcomers Mak and Pasteman on 'Futuristic Island Life.' On the reverse we've got a luuuush deep boogie [...]

El sello Nang publicaba recientemente el álbum de Andy Meecham (aka The Emperor Machine) un enamorado y experto en la instrumentación analógica y sintetizadores, así presenta este Monophonic Vol. 1 (no hay mejor nombre para describirlo), ya que es de difícil descripción, un álbum? un catálogo? un homenaje?, el titulo de cada tema lleva el nombre de un sentizador, con el que se ha utilizado para ese tema, una demostración del conocimiento de este artistazo en estos aparatos.

It's been a while since we last heard from Knightlife . The Melbourne-based producer is ready to release his new 12" on Cut Copy's Cutters label and definitely worth the wait. This new 12" follows on from "Knightlife I" (2007) and "Knightlife II" (2009). The lead track, "Serves You Right", a futuristic disco gem, gives us the first taste from his forthcoming 8-track EP "I Want You", which drops on Cutters at the end of this month. Until then, Knightlife is here to serve you right. That's right! [...]
Knightlife is back with the hypnotic '12 "Serves You Right" out on the Cutters label. The last steller stuff we saw drop was the self-titled "Knightlife I" and sequel "Knightlife II" that raised many eyebrows and made people pay attention to the Melbourne producer. "Serves You Right" is the vintage two-step a-side with "Otherway" bouncing out back on the b-side as well as a delicate Emperor Machine remix of the title track. This leads the way to an 8-track ep dropping at the end of [...]
If your in the market for a decent remix, The Emperor Machine is always value for money; Bigger bang for your buck. Take his recent rework of Brioski's 'Radio Anatomy' in which he augments the originals Italo tendencies and smears on some of his trademark disco sheen. Pick up the full release at Juno Download . Brioski- Radio Anatomy (The Emperor Machine Stretched Version)
The Rapture are bring the love with their new EP which unusually may not actually contain the original. Its is however crammed full of quality remixes from A-Trak , Emperor Machine and Populette . With the original bringing sweet 902s piano chords and a soulful vocal live there is plenty for these guys to work with. My personal favourite is the extended Emperor Machine rework which adds the analogue sounds he is famous for, turning the track into a mutant disco affair. The Rapture - How Deep Is Your Love (Emperor [...]
