Numbers 10
NYC – November 29 
London – December 7
Glasgow – December 13 

Portland was produced by our good friend Dave Clark aka Sparky and was the first record we released in 2002, about a year before the first ever Numbers party took place.

Originally recorded live to tape using an MMT8, a Microwave II, and an ESi32 in the summer of 1998, it was released on an old label of ours named Stuffrecords and formed part of a somewhat rambling compilation called STUFF001. We hastily stuck this record out without any proper distribution, because at the time we didn’t know any better. Despite this, the record did pretty well, selling 500 copies to a few select stores who had faith in what we were doing.

Fast forward a year or so to when Numbers kicked off and the track became one of the first bonafide anthems in the club. It was our tune and it would tear the roof off at any of our parties.

A couple of years later, we booked DJ Pete, aka 'Substance' to play. We’re talking about the record in the pub when he suddenly informs us that Ricardo Villalobos is crazy about it and even charted it. This was a deep, almost Drexciyan electro track and here was the king of crazy experimental minimal house music caning it in his DJ sets.

Not long after that night, the Numbers label was up and running and the idea to re-release Portland with a remix from Mr Villalobos was brought up almost as a kind of pipe-dream. Now in 2013, with a little help from Gerd Janson, it has finally happened. Recorded live in one take and clocking in at over 30 minutes long, it’s cited as an "experiment" by Ricardo. Designed to play at two speeds, at 33rpm it's almost like an early 90s Black Dog track stretched out to infinity, whilst at 45rpm, it’s a club-ready groover with an almost Dopplereffekt rhythm to it – the sort you could imagine sneaking into a DJ Assault or Godfather Ghettotech mix. Somehow, it also manages to be classic Villalobos.

To finish off the record Dave gave us two unheard tracks from those original Portland sessions in 1998. The malevolent electro of ‘Jigsaw’ would instantly have become another Numbers anthem if only Dave had let us hear it ten years ago, and closer track ‘Wilson St’ heads down an ambient route.

About Sparky
Dave’s a bit of a legend. In the early 90s he was a member of Glasgow Techno band State Of Flux who released on JD Twitch’s old label T&B Vinyl. Their first live show was supporting The Black Dog in 1992 at an old Glasgow venue called Industria, and they were also the support at the first ever Jeff Mills show in Glasgow. Later on Dave would release records under the name Truffle Club and regularly collaborated with JD Twitch on remixes under the Optimo (Espacio) banner. Dave and his brother Craig also released an ep under the name ‘Music At Nite’ for former Numbers label Wireblock. Most recently, he’s been working under the name LUMA for Optimo Trax.

Pedestrian and Jasperdrum first combined forces last year when they released the tribal-inspired 'Kalakuta' on renowned UK label 2nd Drop Records. 

Before that dropped, Pedestrian had already released 'Hei Poa' on Push & Run, picking up accolades from Gilles Peterson, and served up the intimate 'Hoyle Road' on James Zabiela's Born Electric, also providing his own vocals on the track.

Lyrics:
Can't deny or lie
Boy you blew my mind
But I'm tired of my heart being broken 
And my love being taken for granted
I gave you all I had 
So crazy
How you wasted my time
How you reached that borderline

(chorus)
Leave Me Alone, go away, Leave Me Alone (x4)

(Leave Me Alone, go away, Leave Me Alone) 
There was a time I used to say "boy I want you"
(Leave Me Alone, go away, Leave Me Alone)
And there was a time I used to say "boy I need you"
Sorry baby no time for this

(Chorus)

LEAVE ME ALONE

Mind Against & Locked Groove
Elysium / Pulsar
HFT040

Hotflush unveils its second release of 2015 in the form of a collaborative single between label mainstay Locked Groove and ascendant Italian duo Mind Against.

With both acts coming off the back of triumphant finishes to 2014 - the success of Locked Groove's huge Enigma EP and Mind Against's surge into #33 position in Resident Advisor's 2014 DJ poll - 'Elysium / Pulsar' marks the first time the producers have collaborated. The end result combines Locked Groove's punchy, dancefloor-ready aesthestic and the emotionally resonant melodics that Mind Against have made their signature since breaking through with Life And Death in 2013.

Release date: February 9th 2015

Mind Against & Locked Groove - Pulsar [HFT040] PREVIEW

https://www.wetransfer.com/downloads/4fa5d22a36765d60ffa9dacf8672f37e20150205121833/2355d2

Last month New York house hero Levon Vincent revealed the first details of his debut album.

Said to arrive “very soon”, it was previewed with a track called ‘Anti-Corporate Music’ given away from free by Vincent via Facebook.

Now he’s taken the anti-corporate idea even further, offering the whole thing for free download via WeTransfer. If you want to own the four LP version of the self-titled LP and give Vincent a bit of financial renumeration, he says it hits the shops on his own Novel Sound label tomorrow.

“This is music for the ugly ducklings of the world,” Vincent said of the album via a post on Facebook. “Music for swans. If you are you’re a member of the rat race, climbing around a dumpster with the other rats vying for power, you may of course listen, but know – this is not music for you. This is action against you.”

The tracklist can be viewed below, and contains some particularly memorable titles – ‘Junkies on Hermann Strasse’ and ‘For Mona, My Beloved Cat Rest in Peace’ are a few of our favourites.

Tracklist:

A1 The Beginning
A2 Phantom Power
B Junkies on Hermann Strasse
C Launch Ramp to tha Sky
D1 For Mona, My Beloved Cat_ Rest in Peace
D2 Her Light Goes Through Everything
E1 Black Arm w/Wolf
E2 Confetti
F Anti-Corporate Music
G Small Whole-Numbered Ratios
H Woman is an Angel
