Much like James Holden and Optimo, Ivan Smagghe is one of the most influential figures behind the founding and continuation of H+P over the past decade.

As such, it is tremendously exciting to release something by his new Smagghe & Cross project. In collaboration with the film composer and programmer, Rupert Cross - who counts big Hollywood blockbusters and Kanye West on his impressive resume - Smagghe & Cross has recently been picking up acclaim through superb releases on Vladimir's Offen Music, Ransom Note and their remix of The Junto Club has been a staple round these parts. Not only that, but the record also features none other than the bold Matthew Herbert (!!!) doing his best Robert Wyatt impression.

Additionally, as a very big fan of the compelling Honey Soundsystem 'Generator' series, I'm really chuffed to have commissioned a special remix featuring Jackie House with Kevin Clarke performing words by DJ Marke B. Swedish Superstars, Samo DJ & Pedrodollar also turn in a trippy groover AND as the icing on the cake; have enlisted the services of the DJ who played the first ever H+P party back in 2007, Pilooski- completing another circle during the 10th anniversary year..

CD deluxe edition: http://www.kompakt.fm/releases/sans_dormir_deluxe_edition

Deluxe version of “Sans Dormir” album gathers, in addition to the LP itself, a bunch of 13 rare tracks from Bot’Ox. 13 tracks produced between 2005, when Cosmo Vitelli and Julien Briffaz officially started their collabroation as a duo, and 2013. Some of them were previously only released as vinyls and could not be found anymore (Lada Rock, Grand Central...), others were only available on digital platforms (Arrogant American Pig featuring the great Kim Fowley, Perfect Pair featuring Foremost Poets, Theme from Mineurs 27...), some others are totally new (Cool Long While featuring Judy Nylon, I Just Can’t Help Myself…). 

Unlike the LP that was conceived as such in a short period of time, no cohesion is to be found in this additional material except from the very own musical Bot’Ox identity. Mixing the codes of club music, krautrock, movie scores, pop, Bot’Ox speak the language of restless nights, whether you spend them on deserted dancefloors, endless roads or in lonely bedrooms. 
----
La version “deluxe” de “Sans Dormir” rassemble, en plus de l’album lui-même, une compilation de treize morceaux rares de Bot’Ox. Treize morceaux produits entre 2005, l’année où Cosmo Vitelli et Julien Briffaz ont officiellement débuté leur collaboration en tant que duo, et 2013. Certains d’entre eux n’étaient présents que sur vinyles, disques aujourd’hui épuisés (Lada Rock, Grand Central…) ; d’autres n’étaient disponibles qu’en digital (Arrogant American Pig avec le grand Kim Fowley, Perfect Pair avec Foremost Poets, Theme from Mineurs 27 de la BO du film du même nom…)  ; d’autres encore sont totalement inédits (Cool Long While featuring Judy Nylon, I Just Can’t Help Myself…).

Contrairement à l’album qui a été conçu en tant que tel sur une courte période, ce supplément n’a pas de cohérence d’ensemble, si ce n’est l’identité musicale très particulière de Bot’Ox. Mélangeant les codes de la club music, des bandes originales de cinéma, de la pop, du krautrock, Bot’Ox parlent le langage des nuits sans repos, qu’on les passe sur des dancefloors dépeuplés, sur les routes qui ne finissent pas ou dans les chambres solitaires.

Die Wilde Jagd - Der Meister (radio mix)

"Melody Inside My Soul" is a dreamy, mid-tempo psychedelic folk-rock ballad that drifts like a lucid dream between memory and destiny. Layered acoustic guitars shimmer with swirling delay and warm reverb, while ambient synths breathe and pulse like inner light. A hypnotic groove of analog bass and soft, brush-driven drums anchors the song in gentle motion, with echoing chimes, reversed cymbals, and hushed vocal murmurs adding a touch of neural distortion. The lyrics are a heartfelt ode to the inner song that guides through shadows and light—a melody that has always been known, whispering hope, truth, and timeless connection.

Melody Inside My Soul

"Leisure" is a poem by Welsh poet W. H. Davies, appearing originally in his Songs Of Joy and Others, published in 1911 by A. C. Fifield and then in Davies' first anthology Collected Poems, by the same publisher in 1916.


Yula Kasp - Leisure

We've been following faultless label Malka Tuti since their very first release, and Khidja's "Drums Of Taksim" (MT003) was undoubtedly one of the defining tracks of 2015. After Gilb'R's remix of J.A.K.A.M. a few months ago, we're delighted to premiere another track off their latest release : an EP by The Kloom, a new all-star project born in Dusseldorf through members of Autarkic, Naduve, Stabil Elite and more. Needless to say, impressive cast. The Die Wilde Jagd remix was our choice of the day, a slow motion groover topped with analog waves and haunting delayed vocals. Out this month so don't sleep !

I wanted to do an edit of one of my favourite songs (and one of my favourite groups). I added so much stuff that it´s not an edit anymore. Very unofficial rework. Enjoy.

Today we present the Samo DJ and Pedrodollar killer rework of the title-track, exclusively available on the digital version. Opening with spiralling synths in form of headphase to then unfold a deep-carved and textured melody riding along jaunty bass moves and tribal drums, the track makes for a slick Janus-faced pumper.

Smagghe & Cross - MMMMMMM (Samo DJ & Pedrodollar Remix) [Huntleys + Palmers]

She licked her lips provocatively as she stared him up and down. In the distance there was music playing but the pair cared not for such ambience beneath the glow of the moonlight. Before them the waves rolled gracefully upon the dusty sand, the palm trees blowing delicately in the warm air. The sky was a bitter shade of black, the stars faintly visible behind the gloomy clouds. This was not some sort of peaceful paradise but a stormy romance on an island lost. 

Smagghe & Cross return following recent releases on Offen Music and our own Ransom Note Records imprint. The pair deliver an intriguing EP for Glasgow based record label Huntleys & Palmers.

PREMIERE: Smagghe & Cross - MMMMMMM [Huntleys & Palmers]

Smagghe & Cross - MMMMMMM (Jackie House Generators Remix ft. Kevin Clarke and Marke B.)

@roam-recordings kicks off 2018 with a new release from its boss @jpsoul. After a big year of releases on labels such as @neinrecords, @emerald-and-doreen-rec, @logicalrecords, @meant, and Whiskey Disco JP Soul returns to Roam with two new dance floor originals that form the Bacchanal EP. The title track ‘Bacchanal’ is an Italo-Disco infused jam with an energetic synth groove backing a decadent vocal. The second original, ‘Might as Well’, is a low slung gritty chugger with a bit of funk and a lot of attitude.
The Bacchanal EP comes with a top notch cast of outstanding remixers. Up first is @hardwaybros aka Sean Johnston of A Love from Outer Space who adds a dark edge to ‘Bacchanal’ with a grinding heavy energy perfect for a big system. Italian legend @inflagranti brings a playful electro touch to ‘Bacchanal’ that can slip in easily to a variety of sets. Rounding out the EP is Argentinian artist @thomassjackson who delivers a wild west psychedelic guitar laden version of ‘Might as Well’.
All five tracks come together to form a unique and versatile EP that follows the Roam mantra - somewhere between disco and techno...a little left of center and always for the dance floor.

PRÈMIÉRE: JP Soul - Might as Well (Thomass Jackson Remix) [Roam Recordings]

Skatebård - The Bells Of Mist

Within the whole retro-mania of '80s induced club music, you rarely find an artist being as deeply immersed in the affective reverberation of old synthesizers as her. Jennifer Touch showcases her immaculate ability to build dance floor-ready bridges between '80s synth-aesthetics, post punk and wave, as she returns to Riotvan with her second artist EP.

Honouring the original by taking in almost everything of the source material, the undisputed one man army Llewellyn, retouches “Chemistry” into a vibrant, dance floor chugger, focussed on Touch’s Postpunk- and Wave-kissed dreariness. Highly recommended!
