Marcos Valle "Nao Tem Nada Nao" (Phonecalls Edit)

One of the most iconic pop songs to ever emerge from the German language sphere is undoubtedly Falco´s "Der Kommissar". Originally released in 1981, it was the ironic yet brazen Austrian take on then brand new New York rap music. Released only two years after the release of "Rappers Delight" by Sugar Hill Gang, "Der Kommissar" was an international sensation and a #1 chart hit in various European countries as well as a global club hit. For many teenagers during the 1980s, Falco showed that also white people can rap, even in German - probably the most difficult language for pop music.

"Der Kommissar" soon also reveberated in Brasil, particularly in the southern part of the giant South American country with its history of German migration. For Porto Alegre band Comunidade Nin-Jitsu, one of the most known rap-rock-funk groups in Brasil, "Der Kommissar" was a major influence in their prime years, so in 1998, they decided to release their take on the Austrian hit and recorded "Rap Do Trago (Vai Começar)" ("it´s about to begin"), a phonetic interpretation of "Der Kommissar" (actually meaning "The inspector" in German). The song is produced by fellow Porto Alegre kingpin Edu K and additionally called "Rap Do Trago" ("Rap about getting drunk") and celebrates the joys of cachaça drinking.

Man Recordings head honcho Daniel Haaksman played "Vai Começar" for many years as closing track in his sets, fast forward to 2024 and the Brasilian interpretation of the classic Austrian rap sees its re-releases on German label Man Recordings.

Let´s raise our cachaça glasses and sing along: "Pare bebum, vai começar!"

PREMIERE: Portto - Dark Void (PR.A.DO Remix) [Self-Released]

Masaaki Yoshida aka Anchorsong has been winning friends here in the UK and internationally throughout Europe with his live shows, and yes we do mean live: Yoshida’s music is created with a sampler and a keyboard, from scratch at his gigs. Sometimes these sounds are augmented by a string quartet.

With 3 EP releases in his native Japan, Anchorsong relocated to London and soon hooked up with the Brighton-based Tru Thoughts label, who put out his international debut LP "Chapters". That, an appearance on Boiler Room TV last year, and support from Radio 1’s Huw Stephens have all helped this young man begin to garner attention. We are hoping this release for BBE will be the one that transforms him from a name bandied round by the electronic music cognoscenti, to a high-profile artist/producer.

Previously characterised as being a maker of downtempo beats, The Mawa EP is an altogether more upbeat affair. The opener rattles along with African tribal chants, dense percussion and a fuzzy near-analogue ambience; the African vibe is continued on track 2 with a looped marimba before we suddenly switch to some sparse, dreamy 4/4 stuff that wouldn’t have sounded out of place on Nu-Groove way back when. The third track is altogether busier, interweaving more chanted vocal snippets and tinkling percussive figures over a sensuous bassline, and the closer increases the bottom-end action with some near sub-bass anchoring layers of shifting, swirling bleeps. This release puts Anchorsong firmly in ‘minimal’ territory and demands attention from electronic music DJs everywhere. 

Gilles Peterson:   
‘Anchorsong is absolute fire…a brilliant EP’

Karizma: 
‘Its Dope really creative will defo play out ‘

Osunlade: 
"These hams are going direct in my wyrb crate ..from first note, masa just says get your ass up and dance! flamingos makes you feel warm inside..ivory is something from another planet with its syncopated spliced rhythms, sounds and voices..makes for a nice dreamy moment. mantra just brings it all home with simple yet affective deepness..pure!"

There were some shadows which stood by the water across the way, amidst the tall grass and the long flowers they watched with a distant stare as the boat moved upon the waves. Strangers by the lake were unsettling for several reasons - nobody was supposed to know that they were here hidden away from watch yet alone spot them at the edge of the water. They rushed quickly to exitinguish the small campfire which they had built earlier as the smoke darted upwards into the deep blue sky. It was all quiet...

OEN is set to release a new album from the Copenhagen based producer Fruit who has appeared on the imprint previously. The album is a lovely assortment of luxurious house cuts and beautiful melodies.
