Magic Ritmo returns with their second release, a highly demanded reissue of ‘G.F.X. - Eternal’ originally released in 1990.

Shrouded in mystery, the record has gained cult status among veteran ravers, record collectors and those who are allured by the spiritual and ethereal quality the record embodies. Magic Ritmo is delighted to lift the cloak and share the story of the record and artist through a fully licensed and remastered release.

G.F.X. is the alias of Geoff Waterston, a musician, producer and engineer from the coastal town of Whitley Bay, North East England. G.F.X. was born from a youth spent tampering with electronics, taping drum beats off the radio and resourcefully discovering his creativity. Performing originally locally, G.F.X. quickly became a name spotted on the line up of many acid house nights that were popping up across the North east, as the area began to receive their first transfusion of acid house.

Often hidden away from the archives documenting this time, the North East of England was a pivotal and culturally rich scene amongst the acid house movement. Most prominently, and fondly spoken of, was Middlesbrough’s ‘Butter Loggie’, a bizarre sounding party that grew to crowds as big 10,000 youths partying at the Herlingshaw Centre in Eston, a community centre by day and place of pilgrimage by night for those eager to experience the beginning of acid house. G.F.X. performed regularly at the Butter Loggie and recalls the impact and ferality of the event, a wild and loose party where the soundsystem shook through your bones. These early experiences provided Geoff with his first glimpses of spirituality, which provided much of the inspiration behind the EP’s title track ‘Eternal’.

The story and legacy of ‘Eternal’ lives on, remastered and reimagined through the lens of Magic Ritmo. Limited 500 copies. 180g vinyl including inserts.

We would like to thank Geoff and Zara for their trust in us and allowing us the honour of putting this important piece of culture back into the world.

"Eternal was a snapshot of a time when an opening up of alternative lifestyles, spirituality, political activism and music were creating an overall sense of freedom and separation from mainstream society.
And for the first time in my life, I felt a sense of peace and belonging that I had never experienced before and that's where eternal emerged from"

“‘Eternal’ has been with me for over 30 years. From the airwaves of “Wear FM” and “Happy Houses” of Sunderland in 1991, to the sunsets of Bali and back to the “Suono” Bank Holiday parties in The Tanners, Newcastle. Around the world, for an out of this world, piece of music.” - Antony Daly, 586 Records

“I used to play GFX some years ago. This track is supreme! I love all the textures and the arrangement is very emotional and beauty. I’m very happy for this reissue. Congrats!“ - Paula Tape

“Both in and of its time and existing 'eternally', both this beautiful downtempo cut and the almost Crimewatch meets Belgian New Beat of 'The Chill' has recently seen it in demand across the world. I'm very happy to see it get a new lease of life and since first hearing it there has always been an interesting sense of false nostalgia attached to it for me, as if it is hard not to associate Geoff's music with those childhood surroundings and the experiences of rave and electronic dance music that were yet to come after I'd left.”
- Fergus Clark, 12th Isle

LONELY006 is a split EP with Eversines on the A side. A huge talent from Amsterdam with previous releases on Kalahari Oyster Cult and Nous'klaer. The B side is produced by Caim. It’s an exploration into the deepest realms of organic techno and stripped down house. But most notably, Caim is the love child of a musical bromance that started in 2016 – when Tommy Kornuijt and Mark Antoni first discovered their shared obsession for analogue gear and immersive grooves – and is now reaching maturity.Before joining forces, both Tommy and Mark had their fair share of musical successes. Tommy as co-founder and resident of Amsterdam’s (in)famous Breakfast Club parties, touring all across Europe with his distinctive take on minimalistic house and techno. And Mark as head honcho of the Amsterdam-based Mood parties and his vinyl imprint Lonely Planets Records. After their initial musical infatuation, they quickly decided to move into a new studio together, where the Caim adventure started. Three years down the line, their musical output is coming up to full speed. With the first release Flâneur on their Caim imprint perfectly setting the tone for their signature sound last year – an alloy of infectious drum patterns and mesmerizing synth moods – they are upping the ante with their sophomore release Rehab in April, and have Caim Records 003 in the pipeline for later this year. Recently, Mark and Tommy have started doing more and more of their notoriously deep and long (after hour) DJ sets. This has landed them residencies at both Breakfast Club and The Tribe. With gigs confirmed in places like Nijmegen’s Drift Festival, Berlin’s About Blank and even as far away as Tel Aviv, Caim is coming for you in 2019 – can’t say we didn’t warn you.

LONELY006

PREMIERE: Caim - Yucatan

"This hot shot from Berlin delivers a never ending holiday at the beautiful shores of his native country: Italy. Heroic adventures in the innercity, lazy afternoons at the beach and long sweaty club nights till dawn. Have you packed your bags yet? Limited supplies!"

The Lagaffe boys have a special one for you. Lagaffe 10 marks the 10th EP in our vinyl series and serves as a perfect way to end our 10th year in existence. To mark this occasion we are releasing a 4 tracker with our founders and label regulars. 

The EP opens up with Cohen Social Club by Flexi Leifs aka Felix Leifur. Our man Felix lost his drum machines last spring but luckily he found a guitar and some drums. The track starts off with suspicious sounding guitar notes that somehow up as pure beauty, giving hope in the darkest of places. Frodo with the ring stuff, if you know what I mean. Playful reverbs and echos give the tune the classic Felix Leifur feel to it! 

Moff & Tarkin has the next track "Pure Fury", some breakbeats and cheesy disco vocals, why change a winning recipe? 

Next up is "We are not alone " by label boss Jonbjörn. I think this is what Elton John meant when he said "thank god for those electro bangers!" Solid 909 drum work featuring dramatic chords and some original vocal work. If you can spot the sample write us on Soundcloud and you might win a year's worth of LaCafe Tales! 

With "Að handan" Viktor Birgiss comes back to the label in style. Our mastering engineer described it as having the loudest kickdrum in history, imagine that! Lo fi dub sounding drums interlaced with atmospheric chords, made for those late night intimate moments on the dancefloor, again Frodo with the ring stuff, if you know what I mean.

Artefakt @artefakt-official dives deeper into their electronic universe with a worthy follow-up on their Days Bygone LP on the Delsin Interstellar series from early 2021. ‘Brain Dripper’ EP explores adventurous paths in dreamy electronics, experimenting with emotive melodies and floating chords rendered into immersive idm and ambient pieces. On the flip the pair fuses their trademark deep techno jams with stepping electro brain workouts.

Rezzett – Zootie

Boomstraat 1818's newest release 'Durgan's Odyssey' is a warm and melodic Detroit techno ep, inspired by summer visits to the Cornish coast at Glendurgan.

Kuba Sojka delivers the A1: 'Root Loop', a dj friendly peaktimer, tested on multiple crowds with an ascertained result. We are blessed to release this track on our label.

'Remain' is the A2 of the ep, in The Parallel's typical deep Detroit style: combining warm pads with classic Roland percussion.

Aztronouth is a longtime friend of the label and founder of the legendary Amsterdam based Mechanism parties. He takes care of the A3 with his track 'Tears From Detroit', a clever analog 'one take' electro recording paying his respects to the Motor City.

Acclaimed French techno veteran Taho is on B1. Well known for his classics such as Mutant Fight the Creature and Forest of Wonders. His track 'Dub Jazz' says it all: it sounds like Brendon Moeller and Saint Germain had a love baby.

On the B2 Boomstraat 1818 label owner Stroef combines his analog 808 drums with strings and pads to deliver a warm and captivating melodic Detroit track called 'Main Gate'.

Cold Blow and AVA. Records have joined forces in unearthing some of the finest techno from the Artificial Intelligence era of soothing post-rave electronic music in a beautiful double LP, designed by Damiano von Erckert. The compilation covers essential cuts from the back catalog of J. M. Adkins’ releases on the short-lived but sought after Metatone Recordings. It includes music from four EPs with two tracks available on vinyl for the very first time; Transmissions by Xonox and Descent by E.M.U.

Metatone was founded in 1993 by Adkins himself together with Damon D’cruz who had by that time closed his previous label, Jack Trax. Over the next two years, Metatone released six 12” EP’s and a CD compilation until its abrupt end. The releases flew under the radar for many but were loved by those who were lucky enough to discover them. Today, the original pressings are a techno crate digger’s daydream.

Compiled from the original DAT tapes and remastered by Andreas “Lupo” Lubich at Calyx Mastering, “Electro Music Union, Sinoesin & Xonox Works 1993 - 1994” calls for J. M. Adkins’ music to be firmly placed among the defining classics of its time.

Ladies of the Eighties

Turned on to You

Artist : Ringard
Title : Bis Repetita Placent
EP : DÔME VA.01
Label : DÔME
Format : Digital
Release date : 07/31/2020

Astropolis festival launches a new label to support the local since: DÔME. Contrary to Astropolis Records, this sublabel will be entirely dedicated to the local scene, following the festival’s open call that selects each year since 2003 around 20 young artists from Western France to perform on its summer edition. Ravy electro, sunrise house, warped club music or hammering techno, it will gather all this beautiful family across all aesthetics and great artists we met from past editions, between emerging talents and cornerstones. Watch it!

The first various EP is a four-track EP from sunrise house to robotic and fast electro, that gathers four brillant producers from the West, Ringard, Théo Muller, A-Sim and Unklevon. A perfect blend between happy dances and peaktime madness for the summer, an eclectic rave taste that embodies Astropolis festival spirit and this creative and boiling scene from Western France.

First track is this very nice hypnotic dance from Dance Around 88’s boss Ringard and Britanny’s house key figure. Solar, daring and emotional, « Bis Repetita Placent » will teleport you straight to an early morning souvenir from Astropolis festival, when the sun rises and y’all smiling in front our beloved Manor. A classy track that tastes summer and beautiful vibes. 

Passionate selector, huge collector for more than 10 years, /RAW/ parties creator but especially great producer, Ringard is one of deep and raw house finest underground producers in France, particularly with his own label, Dance Around 88 to release his own productions but also his friends (Laroze, Trudge, Blutch, Dj Psychiatre, Signal ST…). He signs a house with many faces : deep, dreamy, raw, solar… but each time very classy. Each release made some noise in the diggers’ sphere and this track shouldn’t deviates the formula!
