Things move fast these days, everything needs to be done faster easier and in the most convenient way. They say that the future can't wait and technology doesn't like to look back. But somehow in this process we feel that we have lost a key factor: we call it the Human factor. 

At FHR we think that not everything needs to fit in a pigeonhole, we still like a vocal on a groove and a musician playing on a drum loop. I know it's strange but sometimes we also like Djs that mix slightly out tempo but then put it back in time.

All this gives us the feeling that there is human being behind an emotion. We would rather have a imperfect unique experience than a precise emotionless never-ending loop.

And that's why we want our music to sound like it's made by an genuine Human intuition. And that's why we will always try to make and present to you the best possible Fine Human Records.
Hopefully you'll like what we are about and forgive us for our mistakes.

After all we are Humans.

We are FHR

Well this is a story about a man that walks into this big dark room
And this room is full of lights and full of smoke machines
And he feels like he’s just in his old house
When he was a child when he was like.. playing with his family
On his little bike
Feeling safe
Forgetting, forgetting all his troubles
Forgetting what he needs to do
Who he has to pay
And not.. just not feeling inferior

Just not feeling inferior
In this room worries and all the rules
What you can do and what you can’t do .. Just Vanish!
The only thing that counts is.. Respect

Respect your Brother
Respect your Brother
Respect your Brother

This room is a Magic Room
But it’s really not about the room itself
It’s about the people in the room
It’s about the moments you share, the smiles, the looks
The Music, The DJ
It makes you feel like you’re one thing
It makes you wanna live forever
Instead of just thinking that it’s you against the world
And you think why can’t we always live like this

Nothing is wrong as long as I stay in the room
But when I walk out I just feel I’m lost in the gloom
I love the smoke I feel I’m lost in space
But it’s ok I’ve got all my friends in the place

I’ve got all my friends in the place
Everybody’s in the place 
Ready to go
Everybody’s in the place
Everybody’s is ready to go
Everybody’s in the place
Ready to go
Everybody’s in the place

Dreamy life affirming stuff from a guy with a great name lets face it.
Next week will be techno I promise - as a warm up to Collect! on the 8th if nowt else.

Mano Le Tough - Let s Not Talk About Love

Why this is called Test rather than Demo is perhaps because it started out testing new sounds on the Doepfer, but ended as a demodrop.  I think the year is 2005

Test 05 V01

For an unfinished demo closer in time, here is Demo 184.  Not much to say except that here is yet another grove exploring, Gusgus style.  Enjoy.

Demo 184 V01

Sophisticated minimalism was always a core feat of ALEX UNDER's portfolio, with the Spanish producer also serving as the founder and label manager for much-acclaimed techno label CMYK Musik. After releases on iconic imprints such as Trapez, Soma or Plus 8, the Madrilenian - one of the most sought-after electronic artists in Spain - now presents OLAS DE QUILA QUINA, his very first outing for Kompakt. Three slick, enticing cuts show him comitted to rolling basslines, rising synths and snappy percussion, all embedded in the futuristic sound design Alex has been honing over the course of his career. Unfolding to the backdrop of brooding metallic drones, the title track only needs a handful of carefully processed sounds to tell a highly evocative story - a focussed, geometrical jam that nonetheless allows for freewheeling outbursts of creativity. The same can be said for the punching, asymmetrical acid of EL REFLEJO DEL LACAR and the full-bodied bass bounce of LOLOG, as both cuts juxtapose sharp-edged shards of electronic texture with chewy, melodic synths. Tension-filled and catchy, it's a masterful update on ALEX UNDER's unique approach to techno, bold and subtle at the same time.

Eleganter Minimalismus war schon immer eine Kernkompetenz von ALEX UNDER, dem spanischen Produzenten der auch als Gründer und Labelmanager für das hochgeschätzte Technolabel CMYK Musik fungiert. Nach Releases für legendäre Marken wie Trapez, Soma oder Plus 8 präsentiert der Mann aus Madrid - einer der begehrtesten elektronischen Künstler Spaniens - OLAS DE QUILA QUINA, seine allererste Veröffentlichung auf Kompakt. Drei smarte, verlockende Tracks zeigen ihn inmitten rollender Bassläufe, erhabener Synthies und zackiger Percussion, alle im futuristischen Klanggewand eingebettet, welches Alex schon eine ganze Karriere lang verfeinert hat. Vor dem Hintergrund von düster-metallischem Rauschen entfaltet sich der Titeltrack mit nur einer Handvoll sorgsam prozessierter Sounds zu einer höchst atmosphärischen Erzählung - ein fokussierter, geometrisch klingender Jam, der dennoch Raum für freigeistige Kreativausbrüche bietet. Ähnliches ließe sich vom zupackenden, asymmetrischen Acid von EL REFLEJO DEL LACAR und dem vollmundigen Bass-Schwung von LOLOG behaupten, da beide Aufnahmen scharfkantige elektronische Texturen mit bissfesten, melodischen Synthesizern konterkarieren. Spannungsgeladen und mitreissend, illustriert dieses meisterhafte Release ALEX UNDERs einzigartige Herangehensweise an Techno, forsch und subtil zugleich.

Due for release later this month, @sebastian-voigt's ‘Capitao Pinto’ draws on retro techno motifs, with chunky 808s and shimmering synth work, analogue squelches and melancholy riffs straight out of the Juan Atkins Academy of Technological Advancement in Music. It’s a beaut, have a listen...

These are two alternate versions of two of the more popular tracks from Pale Blue’s LP, The Past We Leave Behind. The record was a slow burn, but eventually One Last Thing became the sleeper track. It has been on playlists from the likes of Seth Troxler, Pachanga Boys and John Talabot. It seems to have become one of the more popular closing tracks this year. With that in mind, Mike decided to turn it on its head and turn it in to an opening track…

Distance To The Waves was tweaked into an acid floor filler. Simonetti uses multiple 303’s chained to add melody at the most unexpected places. We also stuck the original versions on the vinyl as well for extra pleasure.

BIO:
The Icelandic band Gus Gus originally spawned from a shortcut made by Siggi Kjartansson and Stefán Árni (a.k.a. Arni & Kinski) called “Pleasure”. Initially the band was acclaimed as an avant-garde collective of musicians, producers, filmmakers and performers. They mixed together different mediums to create a unique mixture of sound and vision. Their trademark style is combined with funky bass, streamlined synths and the intelligent use of technology and art. Árni & Kinski did the visual part and the musical side was driven by Birgir Þórarinsson (a.k.a. Veiran), Stephan Stephenssen (a.k.a President Bongo), Magnús Guðmundsson (a.k.a. Herb Legowitz). The live band was fronted by singers Daníel Ágúst, Hafdís Huld and Magnús Jónsson (a.k.a. Blake).

Gus Gus is an electronic soul band formed in 1995. A short break in a making of the shortcut made it possible for the first Gus Gus self-titled album to be born. In 1996 the band signed to 4AD Records that released their widely acclaimed second album “Polydistortion”. "This Is Normal" followed in 1999 and finally "Gus Gus vs T-World" appeared in 2000. During the 4AD years, Gus Gus started touring massively, stirring the music world with their powerful live-show. The touring life was stressful for the nine some and eventually called for changes within the line up. Six original members left and the three remaining producers (Veiran, President Bongo and Herb Legowitz) soon found hope in a new female singer, Earth aka Urður Hákonardóttir. The band has ever since focused on being a musical entity. 

In 2002 Gus Gus re-appeared with their 4th studio album "Attention" which includes their most successful dance floor hit “David”. On the album the band teamed up with the legendary producer Gareth Jones and Finnish multi-instrumentalist Jimi Tenor. The album demonstrates a sharply focused club-band full of creativity and even more energetic than ever. Daníel Ágúst

Gus Gus released there 8th studio album, Mexico, on Kompakt, Germany in June 2014
