Info Englisch:
After three super solid and well appreciated vinyl 12“ releases which were receiving nothing but love all over the place, have been played out on heavy rotation in clubs and at festivals and surely have been essential in shaping the relatively new Deep- / Slowhouse / (Neo)Cosmic offshoot that's not filed under a genre-defining flag yet but is partly described  as consisting  of „love songs that accidentally turned into tracks“ these days this series does not need no further introduction. 

The Stiff Little Spinners brand has grown and gained recognition on the club circuit especially throughout the past twelve months and that's why we serve it's fourth issue in a special, well chosen context of joy and celebration. 

Whilst the Audiolith mothership is turning 10 years in 2013, turning it's head into the next „Ten Years From Now“ with a special anniversary sampler LP the vinyl edition of Stiff Little Spinners Volume 4 will be included as additional bonus 12“ for this sampler and is not to be sold seperately, introducing the labels more club-focused side to all its followers. 

But now we're back to the music.

Starting the musical journey with Gimmix  „Missy“ it's pretty obvious why the trademark Stiff Little Spinners-sound goes way beyond the term of Deep- or SlowHouse as the use of tender vocal samples and heartwarming melodies with an uplifting twist on top of deepest basslines sparks nothing but innocent happiness.

Stepping forward we're running into Joney – Hamburg's uber-active jack-of-all-trades who simply states „It's Braining Schnaps And Frogs“ with his excursion into stomping, sub-driven Techno House. Aware of Sheffield's Bleeps & Clonks he easily manages to keep the drums marching straight away whilst delicate strings tell a totally different tale, reminiscing about these few calm minutes before the sun sets. These opposite sides of the story easily fall into place for good, making this brain out a very special tune for special moments.

Next up is the great Kalipo with „Perspicientia“ and the Frittenbude-trained master of analogue gear surely knows what the lovers of this series call out for. This time he's on an ever evolving, innocently (Neo)Trance-induced tip, shifting through frolicking chords and organic basslines, building layers and layers of melodies, sounds and greatly processed vocal bits, slightly referring to Future Garage musically but thrilling every floor that's based on a decent four by four. Nothing but quality in here.

Stiff Little Spinners-mastermind Krink steps up to the circuit with his instant classic „Talking“ which is paying great respect to the early days of Chitown whilst keeping the sweet functionality and maximum dancefloor effect of stripped down House Music in mind. One of these rare tracks that's totally living up to the history of House in every little detail. But still „Talking“ is way more than a pure emulation of what has been once as the man they call Krink is breathing sex and soul and love and a vision with every micro-tone included in this masterpiece.

Another uncrowned master of sweetness in dance floor music is Rampue who is exploring slightly different realms here with shuffling beats, Spanish vibes and romantic Flamenco'esque guitars embedded in a synth heavy surrounding that feels no fear of vibing of on offbeat structures and Jazz standards. “Una Bluna” is crossing borders and uniting the best of both musical worlds under one roof.

Finally Torsun Teichgräber gives us some kind of French goosebumps with his “De Plus En Plus Fort” - a lovely piano-driven affair based on highly intimate, uber-fragile female vocals that slowly are sucked in to a warm Acid (Not Acid)-flavored vision of (Tech) House that's second to none these days.

Rampue - Una Bluna

Glamour Hammer is the nom de plum of Swedish-based producer, songwriter and vocalist Adam Jonsson. In the comfort of his home studio, Glamour Hammer swings back and forth between creating dance-oriented disco house and jazz-infused dream pop with a sense of escapism and tongue-in-cheek attitude while always aspiring for a sense of timelessness and analogue feel. Drawing inspiration from a multitude of genres the most influential are 1970s-80s Funk, Disco, boggie, Classic rock, Latin rhythms and Afropop. Recent singles has got support from the likes of Dancing Astronaut, thissongissick.com and many more, and has really started the lounge packed nu-disco world to take notice of his arrival to the party. 

The recording features fellow ICEA-artist Anthony Mills other moniker; his rap alias Toni Sauna. Born and raised in the ”rubber city” Akron Ohio. From here the culture vessels pumped both national and international vibes reputation. This combined with 17 years repping NYC renders Toni’s grit /goon level vibration. The time thru the 90’s forged his ”golden era ” insensitivity. Sauna currently unrests in Stockholm, Sweden as a brand new Swede.  Mr. Sauna earned his signature name from inside public sauna Hermanni in Helsinki, Finland . The combination of street cred, lyricism, and personality is undeniable. Off rip. Likened to an apex predator Toni Sauna bars devour tracks with delicate precision completely harnessing his non-threatening anti- testosterone voice. 

This release comes with two remixes. 

French electronic disco mastermind YUKSEK has created a remix that takes the original in irresistible, bouncy Modern-Disco territory. Earlier this year the original version and the Yuksek remix of 'Is It True' was part of the compilation Too Slow To Disco presents: Modern Daytime Disco released by City Slang (non-exclusive license) alongside ie. Kraak & Smaak, Poolside, Prep, Yuksek, Luxxury.

The latest addition is the brand new remix from MVRE who blurs the line between EDM and pop music, bringing together fresh beats, catchy melodies and crisp, bass heavy production in a tight mix. Since debuting in 2018, the Swedish producer have been releasing music that has consistently landed on international New Music Friday lists, has streams in the millions and counting and have been compared to the likes of Zedd and The Chainsmokers. 

Glamour Hammer - Is It True feat. Toni Sauna is released May 14 via Icons Creating Evil Art

Tastemaking British producer and Disc Over Music label boss Tim Green makes his debut on the highly acclaimed Canadian based My Favorite Robot Imprint. His EP contains 2 brilliant originals and comes backed with two remixes from Visionquest’s Ryan Crosson.

Tim has been at the very forefront of the UK underground scene over the past 5 years. His off kilter grooves and ever-evolving house and techno sound has seen him release with the likes of Cocoon, Get Physical & Dirtybird. In 2013 Tim launched his first ever live show at the esteemed London Festival SW4 which proved Green to be a dexterous performer with plenty to say for himself, as does this new EP.

The lead track, ‘Helpless Sun' is typical of Tim's need to always surprise the listener, the track constantly evolves and changes in effortless fashion. Starting with lush guitar licks and atmospherics and quickly moving to growling baselines, broken beats, a humungous breakdown, 4/4 and to top it off an amazing vocal from the highly talented new vocalist Hayley Hutchinson. This is the kind of track 99% of producers out there wish they could make. The result is stunningly epic.

Ryan Crosson is at the heart of contemporary techno as part of the Visionquest collective.The first of his two remixes totally deconstructs the original into a swelling and driving dance floor monster with plenty of tripped out vibes. The second, an ambient mix, does exactly what it says on the tin – it’s a celestial affair that suspends you in mid air as synth patterns unfold and indecipherable vocals ebb and flow at the core of it all.

Rounding off the package, Tim's second original on the EP ‘Seti’, a lush and beautiful deep techno track with glowing harmonies and bright neon synths. A track that seems simple at first but on more listens proves to be as intricate and textured as its A side, constantly evolving throughout the build and crescendo's. This is another outstanding offering from Mr. Green.

Icare (Yuksek Remix)

I believe in techno parties & basements. One day I'll have a dream factory that turns music into a nectar we can all drink. Like goblets of snaredrums, and milkshakes of bass. Each beat like a flavour to mix with russia's finest vodka. 

My life is like a sneak peek into the future, a slow dance of the past, some kind of fantasy castle with a moat of extremely buff men who sleigh dragons topless... 

and your life? it's whatever you've made of it.... until you meet me...
