After her stunning release on our deeper House focused Karakul label, we are over the moon to welcome back Swiss producer Lea Lisa on our main Phonica imprint.

The ‘Love To The End EP’ takes influence and inspiration from a particular early 90s UK Techno rarity by Mark Goddard titled ‘The End’ (The Truth EP), a beautiful and emotive take on the classic sound of UK Techno that’s been much loved and highly sought after for decades, even being a particular favourite of Aphex Twin. It’s an ode to the original, rather than a remix or cover. The two mixes re-imagine the sound of soulful and deep Techno, combining driving basslines and drum machine grooves with atmospheric and nostalgic synth lines.

On the A-Side’s ‘Manchester Club Mix’, the focus is laser focused on peaktime dancefloors with a slowly building level of euphoria matched with rolling drums until the breakdown chills the mood and the plucky, earth shaking bassline returns before the tension is released and the melodies float effort- lessly around the pounding rhythm.

Over on the B-Side, the ‘Sunset Mix’ jacks up the drums with kicks and claps that shake your spine. The bassline rolls steadily throughout the mix but the melodic lines this time are more restrained, introspective and subtle, echoing and harking to past rave memories with ease...

PREMIERE : Lea Lisa - Love To The End (Manchester Club Mix)

Friday 3 February 2023 sees Newcastle polymath, Man Power release his first EP of the year, Wallsend’s Finest, on burgeoning Belfast imprint, Nocturne, following up recent successes on the label from the likes of Zillas on Acid, Tech Support, Perdu & Alex Virgo.

On the first Man Power outing on Nocturne he delivers a gnarly acid workout on ‘Overbite’. Driven drums, 303 squelch and tense synths are order of the day making a perfect combination for the late night, heads down crew.

On ‘Full Body Gurn’, he turns in a percussive 4/4 beast with a refreshing nod to a classic that will sit comfortably between both the house and bass dance floors.

Fiercely independent, Man Power is the curator of the Me Me Me label and parties, which this year has seen DJ Harvey, Jeff Mills, Daniel Avery, Gerd Janson, Jennifer Cardini and many more travel to join him in Newcastle while he continues to support, mentor and champion new talent from across the world.
Having taken some downtime to adapt, re-focus and re-align himself with a renewed focus as a producer and DJ, 2023 is on track to be a year of creative energy, as the Man Power project enters its second decade as a force to be reckoned in club culture.

First release by Good Neighbors, an eclectic dance EP that takes listeners on a journey through various moods and themes.

It starts with a mystical deep house trip filled with longing feelings and dreamy vocals in 'Saudade Fantasy', followed by the hypnotic tribal beats and Gregorian chants in 'Sadeness DNA', a techno track inspired by Enigma's classic hit, and finally ends with an acid ride through the frenzied era of cowboys in 'Those Who Dig'.

These three tracks offer an ethereal leftfield experience that takes the listener through different musical worlds.

Love On The Rocks is back with our first record of the year – a remix of a obscure psychedelic proto-trance cut from ’93, remastered, reissued and remixed for the future by @roza-terenzi and @alexkassian.

‘State Of Mind’ was first released on Rhythm Design in 1993, then remixed in ’94 by @justin-drake and @o-s-m / Quinn Whalley, AKA Slack, who released their first 12” on @andrew-weatherall’s Sabres of Paradise label and years later would go on to found seminal dance music acts @peacedivision & @paranoid-london.

But not before leaving a trail of fire 12”s and remixes behind them, which they found time to do between running around London, DJing, throwing parties and pulling all nighters in the studio. This, in our view, is the key to it all - equal parts tribal, trance and techno, built around a pulverising kick drum, with synths direct from outer space, incomprehensible computerised vocals seemingly delivered through vocoder, rewinds, and breakdowns galore; it sounds like a transmission from an alien race, relentless and insane.

Roza Terenzi brings typical A-game to her mix, taking down the tempo but amping up the weird, loosely following the original’s structure of build ups and strip downs while lacing its tribal/extra-terrestrial vibes with additional jungle sounds and atmospheric pads, for what feels like a morning stroll through a psychedelic rainforest.

Alex Kassian takes no prisoners with his extended update/workout complete with booming vocal samples, planet-destroying bass and layers of pin- sharp, slamming percussion that smartly echoes the original and retools it for ‘21.

The vinyl comes in a full sleeve with special artwork, inlay with notes from Justin Drake & an exclusive download code.

Strictly limited, vinyl only, no repress!
