Some records are birthed through countless months or even years of studio hard yaka; drafts, followed by re-drafts, an eternal process of searching for that money shot musical moment.  Then there are albums that simply pour out of the collective minds of its creators – more of a stream of consciousness and musical expressions that strategic beat creation. 

For best friends and long time collaborators Matt Edwards (aka Radio Slave) and Thomas Gandey (aka Cagedbaby and producer). Matom began as a one off project to create an hour of music to celebrate the iconic Hansa recording studios in Berlin, a space that’s seen everyone from David Bowie and Iggy Pop to Tangerine Dream and Brian Eno.  

Says Edwards “The initial music was loosely based around the recording of David Bowie’s ‘Low’ and the works of Iggy Pop and I wanted to create these soundscapes that would allow Thomas to improvise and we managed to come up with seven songs in two days.”

From this auspicious beginning the project continued to pick up pace and the pair soon performed in Warsaw alongside revered Kosmiche figurehead Manuel Gottsching and a few months later at the Name festival in Lille, France. 

Splitting time between Gandey’s home and studio outside Bordeaux and Edward’s studio in Kreuzberg, Berlin, the pair continued to create. The duo adopted a free-flow approach to production, with Gandey talking warmly about creating sounds for the Matom Project.  They’d cook together, eat fine food, and then sit down to work on the music together. 

Gandey describes Edwards as the “master of minimal”, building up the soundscapes and beats before Thomas filled out the compositions with various keyboards form his collection including a Fender Rhodes, Moog Voyager, Clavia Nords, Roland Drum Machines and live percussion and finally another collaborator Paul Sandrone would improvise on guitar at the final stages of production. 

The entire essence of Matom’s sounds is based around live takes and recorded snippets of conversations and ambiences from their tours, with no MIDI or samples so when they joined the line up for the Pyramids of Mars label showcase at Berghain’s Kantine it was a seamless transition from studio to stage.  Their last gig was once again for the Red Bull Music Academy in Miami WMC 2014 to perform the finished album for the people who first inspired and supported the project. 

And so Matom’s ‘Love Mistakes’ is signed sealed and delivered, a work Gandey describes as “a culmination of our combined skills and reflecting its contrasting environments, a dualism between the cosmic serenity of the vineyards in his south of France retreat and the gritty urban cityscapes of Berlin’s bohemia.” 

A brief track by Track breakdown by Matom’s Thomas Gandey

1.	Crossroads – The album opens with Crossroads, which sets the scene, a beatless dystopian ambient soundscape featuring Rhodes.

2.	Experiment 1 Variation 3 – As the name suggest we had a lot of tracks to choose from, this one based around one of the original improvised Piano sessions we recorded in Bordeaux.  Cuban Piano backs a driving drum, and one of the most fun to play live.
  
3.	Hansa – Named after the primary inspiration for the project. This is a paradise travelogue, written on Rhodes, a percussive playground.

4.	Warsaw – Named and written for our 2nd live performance, very much inspired by Berlin and cruising along the rivers. 

5.	Zazu – Another meditative ambient work, inspired by early Concrete musique and tribal percussion and mostly reversed, modular synthesis and sequencers back the Rhodes.

6.	Piano 2 Variation 4 – Piece for Solo Piano using live looping, building and diminishing, an ideal club tool 

7.	Experiment 7 Variation 2 – Middle Eastern Piano heavily delayed with string swells.

8.	Love Mistakes – The title track of the album, electronic pads, Rhodes and broken groove.

Teenage Mutants & TH;EN - The Unhappy Song (Original Mix)

Beatport: http://bit.ly/MHR075_Beatport 

The 75th EP on Moon Harbour is one that connects the past with the present: the release is made up of three remixes and re-edits of classic tracks by label boss Matthias Tanzmann. Charged with serving up these goods are one third of Apollonia, namely Frenchman Shonky, Saved Records boss Nic Fanciulli and his brother Mark and, finally, Matthias himself updates one of his own cuts. Proving that Moon Harbour have evolved on their own terms whilst always staying true to their roots, this EP is yet another modern tech house masterclass.

Recondite - Think Twice EP
A long time friend of the label and an artist who needs no introduction, Recondite presents two unique techno narratives for his much anticipated first EP on Life and Death.

Up first and straight out the gate like the turning of the great Boethian wheel, Think Twice turns over and on top of itself again, like the march of time and the fortunes of paupers and princes alike. An ever advancing urgent reminder of the transitory nature of the eternal now, it graces us with her beauty and leaves us with a shaking sensation deep in our bones. 

On the B side, Serak begins with a bellowing bass emitted like a series of holotropic breaths from belly of Stanislav Grof himself. A sequence of sounds sent like a fishing line to the depths of the psyche, it returns with a portentous melody that winds and wanders until exploding midway thru the piece in a burst of restrained emotion.

My Favorite Robot Records introduce a new act to their eclectic roster in the form of German duo Iftah Gabbai and Olaf Hilgenfeld aka Skinnerbox. With their three track "Sawtooth Blues" EP, the duo serve up a smattering of exciting new cuts and rightly call themselves an “avant-jazz opus wrapped in a disco suitcase.”

Here, we feature the EP's title track ‘Sawtooth Blues,’ opening things up in gloopy style, with bendy, downbeat bass synths off set by more colourful pads up top. It’s an undulating, warm and comforting tune with a left of centre sense of melody that really resonates.

Today, Dino Lenny returns to Ellum with the magnificent 'Living In A Song' release, featuring three brilliant remixes from Shall Ocin, Gardens of God and Rebolledo, of which we’re happy to premiere Shall's reworking. He gives the hypno-heavy techno infused track, with Dino on vocals, a darker, bubbling techno sound. You'll be hearing this track over and over again during the upcoming summer.
