🚘 RIDE TO HEAVEN ☁️

Ride To Heaven is a journey through midnight streets, lowrider dreams, and clouded memories.
Heavy 808s, distorted cowbells, Memphis-inspired vocals, and haunting melodies collide to create a hypnotic phonk experience. This album blends street energy with a cinematic, almost spiritual mood—where the ride feels endless and the bass hits deeper than thoughts.

Built for night drives, underground scenes, and anyone chasing that raw, nostalgic phonk sound.
Turn it up, roll slow, and let the road take you higher. 🌌

Headphones recommended. Bass guaranteed.

HYPNOTIC

Shiva Nataraja, the cosmic dancer, moving through the wild intelligence of the jungle, activated by mantra.

A ceremonial and ecstatic dance offering created for movement, ritual, and embodied prayer. A wild  luscious portal where nature, spirit, and rhythm merge.

Shiva Nataraja Jaguar (Ceremonial Mix)

Had this one in the vault for some years now and for being awesome fans I'm dropping in for the holidays. Merry Christmas!!!

Lord Of The Isles - In Waves (ESP Institute) 
Release Date 11/11/2016

Lord Of The Isles 'In Waves' (ESP Institute)

We almost missed this one. So to ensure ‘In Waves’ made waves in the pages of Mixmag, we went back to it – and boy will you be glad you did, too. Lord Of The Isles, aka producer and graphic designer Neil McDonald, has been writing and producing for almost a decade, the enigmatic releases finding homes on key electronic imprints like Permanent Vacation, Phonica and Mule Music. His debut album, released via LA label ESP Institute, is fresh and spectacular. McDonald says an early fascination with Scottish history inspired his moniker, as well as being dragged around the Highlands by his parents as a young child. Those trips clearly made an impact on him, because ‘In Waves’ is laced with beautiful chord progressions and colours as bright as tartan. He seems to be as in touch with nature as he is with percussion and quirky melodies, as demonstrated by the sound of waves washing over pianos on the title track. Its 15 tracks are the epitome of otherworldly electronic sophistication and yes, for the most part they’re as Balearic as a classic DJ Harvey disco re-edit. Certain tracks stick out: the glitchy Balearic bounce of ‘Liobasta’ is an early highlight, as is the smooth cinematic touch of ‘Obar Lìobhaite’. The Âme/Dixon-ish bleep masterclass ‘Weh-In’ doesn’t put a foot wrong over eight scorched minutes, either, while the subtly breathtaking ‘Yanomami’ isn’t far behind. You can catch Lord Of The Isles at Primavera next summer; don’t miss the boat. Ralph Moore

IR009 - Alma - Máquina EP

I N F O //

P R E M I E R E // Ka§par - Boytoy (Beltran's Stripped Mix) [Integrity Records]

!!! These are stripped-down 160mp3 snippets of the original tracks !!!

Artist: Al Chem
Title: Metaphysics Of Love EP (incl. remixes of Shahrokh Dini and Michael Reinboth)
Catalog No: CPT 571-1/-3
Format: 12" / digital

If something can be aseptic cold like the New Romantics and deep, soulful and trippy at the same moment, then this release by Berlin’s Al Chem, which is a pretty damn thorough modelling of no wave.
  and vocals in a minimal lo-fi electronic soul-bed is hard to find. Al Chem’s voice and lyrics are beautiful, over an ethereal dive. Al Chem extracting a rich sense of emotion from a hypnotic grooving synth-pad.
 With some tipp-topp hitters on remix duty: Shahrokh Dini made an absolutely stunning quirky peak time club mix, while Compost‘s boss Michael Reinboth is riding tough on a stone-cold  80ties groove.

Alexander Christou aka Al Chem / The Elecdrones – producer, composer, singer and DJ 1962-1968 London, 1968-1979 Würzburg, since 1980 in Berlin

Al Chem - Metaphysics Of Love (Shahrokh Dini Remix) (snippet)

Artist: Fred und Luna
Title: Im Weltenraum
Catalog No: CPT 570-1 / -3
Format: 2-LP incl. download / digital

Space music of an outstanding and extraordinary kind: just as you would expect when two mannequins leave their boutique in Karlsruhe/Germany in their mind’s eye to go and see places where they haven’t been before.
“Im Weltenraum”, how they call their new album, is Fred und Luna’s next step in their ever-changing series of “Elektrokraut/Krautelektro” music. A charming and fascinating voyage through an endless universe of phantasmagorial soundscapes, repetitive rhythms, catchy melodies and even a side trip to Acid House Land.
After their “Glück auf” on Optimo Music, where they started with a journey through motorik Krautland, followed by a trip to a both atmospheric and boppy soundgarden on their album “Im Klanggarten” (Bigamo), an intoxicating journey into deep blue areas on “Im Tiefenrausch” (Compost Records) and tribal dancefloor spots on “Im Tanzrausch” (Compost), “Fred und Luna” are now on the traces of spaces, unknown worlds and unknown time zones, accompanied by Patrick Pulsinger, both a mixmaster and a master of mastering.

Who are Fred und Luna?
"Fred und Luna" are two mannequins living in a fashion boutique in Karlsruhe, Germany. They serve as muse for musician, lector, poet and photo/video maker Rainer Buchmüller.
Inspired by his doll friends and his love for German electronic music of the past decades, Rainer Buchmüller under the alias “Fred und Luna” produces his self-created genres Elektrokraut and Krautelektro: both a modern combination of repetitive rhythms, beautiful melodies, electronic soundscapes and elements from the Krautrock era.
Under the name of “Ariston Baton” Rainer Buchmüller also writes and performs sound poems and concrete poetry. On live events and especially on exhibitions Ariston Baton is joining “Fred und Luna” and Rainer Buchmüller’s third identity “Vizudaru Nono”, who is contributing video and photo projections. Together they form the so called “Equipe Nadaphysique”. The next exhibition featuring all three named personalities will take place end of October 2018 at Rockomotives Festival, Vendôme/France.

„Fred und Luna is a miraculous treasure chest with seemingly unlimited realms of Krautelektro and Elektrokraut music.“ 
FRANK WIEDEMANN (ÂME/INNERVISIONS)

„Fred und Luna’s universe is full of wonderful possibilities and greets you like an old friend whistling a long forgotten melody.“ 
PATRICK PULSINGER

„Wunderbar!“ 
JD TWITCH (OPTIMO)

Artist: Web Web
Title: Web Web Remixes #1 EP (incl. remixes by Mousse T., Hector Romero & Ayala, Khalab, Urbs, L One, Michel Cleis)
Catalog No: CPT 573-1/-3
Format: 12" / digital

After the three highly acclaimed albums “Oracle” (2017), “Dance Of The Demons” (2018) and “Worshippers” (2020), it’s about time to present a collection of remixes of Web Web’s musical output. For this 12” we could allure some top notch producers. Like Web Web’s œvre itself, the variety of remixes on this 12” as well is stunningly diversified. 
We’ve got an uplifting disco house groover by living legend Mousse T., which already got massive support by Louie Vega on his Worldwide radio show. A tribal afro house re-work by NY resident Hector Romero & Ayala from Italy; some avant-garde broken beats plus a mellow slow motion version of “Land Of The Arum Flowers” by Italian freestyle, trap, jazzy beats rising star Khalab; an epic downbeat monster by Vienna beat smith URBS, and last but not least a smooth dubby remix by Munich’s beat wunderkind L One. A secret weapon 12” representing a beautiful wide musical spectrum.

Web Web are Roberto Di Gioia (piano, synth, percussion), Tony Lakatos (tenor and soprano saxophones, flute), Christian von Kaphengst (upright bass) and Peter Gall (drums).
