I READ AT A FIFTH GRADE LEVEL..... BRAILEEEEEEEEE

Axel Boman broke through in 2010 with his Holy Love EP, released on DJ Koze's Pampa Records. The track Purple Drank became an instant classic in underground house music circles – since then, Boman has toured extensively while releasing original productions and remixes on labels like DFA, Hypercolour, Kompakt, Permanent Vacation and Ovum, as well as on Studio Barnhus, the label he runs together with Kornél Kovács and Petter Nordkvist.

Family Vacation, Boman's debut album, arrives on Studio Barnhus in November 2013.

“I decided to go through the vast collection of ideas and sketches I had on my computer, as a final project before I set that machine on fire and let it all go up in flames. Kind of like what Lee "Scratch" Perry did with The Black Ark in Kingston in the 70's. A friend says the album sounds like “weird Jamaican space disco" so maybe it's a fitting reference”, says Boman himself.

Axel Boman's music has also been described as "raw and playful house music drenched in oceans of soul". He graduated with a master's degree from Valand School of Fine Arts in 2010 and currently lives in the calm and peaceful Stockholm suburb Gröndal.

Krakatau man, Bodi Bill collaborator and all-around nice kid Thomalla with his debut on Running Back. Built for an universe in which James Holden is the caretaker, you get four slices of romantic Krautpop-Glitch-House that pleasantly diverge from the current state of dance affairs.

We're big fans of Balearic and its sunkissed sons and daughters here at BR HQ - just check the glowing write-up of Jack J  for evidence. It may be a good few months out of season, but on "Having A Coke With You", New Jackson and Permanent Vacation are looking to next summer already.

The Dublin producer takes his sweet time, studiously layering the atmosphere over 10+ minutes before bringing it all to a momentous climax worthy of space disco king Lindstrøm himself. I mean, the man showed up to play for our Hivern Discs showcase in Primavera in an all-white suit - we should have known he meant business all along.

DJ Koze returns with his second track from "knock knock", his forthcoming album on Pampa Records. “Illumination” follows the previously released “Seeing Aliens” and is the first "knock knock" track Koze has shared featuring vocals. The ever-unique Róisín Murphy becomes a cyborg funk diva on “Illumination.” "Working on a song together with Roísín is even better than not working at all,” says Koze.

DJ Koze - Illumination (feat. Róisín Murphy)

Phonica Records return with release no.6, that features three spellbinding remixes of a track that’s a classic around these parts… 

Originally released in 1994, Bob Holroyd’s effervescent, career-defining anthem "African Drug" was included on both Francois K’s 'Essential Mix' and Coldcut’s 'Journeys By DJ: Coldcut' - 70 Minutes Of Madness. So when Bob walked through our shop’s doors one day, we couldn’t resist asking to license the track and give it a new lease of life with two breathtaking remixes. And that’s exactly what we did. 

The first remix comes from the consistently trailblazing Four Tet. Clocking in at just under 12 minutes, there’s only one word to describe it – epic. Using the African samples of the original, Four Tet builds a complex, glockenspiel-esque melody that slowly morphs into a feast of hypnotic percussion, pulsating sub-bass and dizzying, psychedelic FX. Following a brief remission around the halfway mark, the melody returns, unspooling into a climactic freak-out that’s simply classic Four Tet. 

On the flipside we have rising star of T.Williams – who also gave us the first Local Action release – re-tooling "African Drug" for more leftfield dancefloors. An absorbing, off-kilter percussive intro gradually gives way to a heavy yet streamlined 4/4 groove. Ultra-modern but mindful of the source material’s timeless appeal, this is a raw, powerful version with ‘secret weapon’ written all over it.
