Klaus Schulze-inspired Finnish producer turns his 'brain off' on new album ‘Automat Musik’

Stiletti-Ana (born Ilari Larjosto) is a producer, musician and sound engineer from Helsinki, Finland. 

“Automat musik is my first release that is not composed, produced and maxed out. Why wouldn’t I just focus on the fun side of the things and turn the brains off? That’s what I did with Automat Musik” says Stiletti-Ana.

Automat Musik is released on September 19 via bandcamp & all streaming platforms.

Other Stiletti-Ana solo releases have appeared on Höga Nord records and Public Possession. 
In 2021 he released two records, Stiletti City Rhythm band and ‘I’m an arpeggiator’. 

He also performs with the duo JESSE whose releases cover all points from trashy synthesizer core to fusion, new age, jazz, techno and proto electro.

2023-03-11 Live At Der Pudel Ist Eine Power (DJ Pete, Finn Johannsen), Golden Pudel Club, Hamburg

The first time I heard @alexander_antonakis was warming up for Romanthony live at O25 in Frankfurt (Main) in ca 2000. I could stop there. Then at a house party in a flat above the infamous 21st Jahrhundert. Both times I took notes. Namely I remember Inner Life's - Moment Of My Life (famously sampled by Ian Pooley for Forc Inc.) and Venus Dodson's Where Are We Headed? I was decksharking hard. Later when I moved to Berlin we booked him for our Premiere Party for Maestro at Kinzo. I guess it's fair to say he is a local legend with his residencies for Radio X , their Chocolate Parties alongside the late Heiko M/SO and the equally famous Monza club.
An obsessed digger and comletionist for everything Disco and Dance that has worked in multiple instances as Journalist, Radio Host and Resident. You still can read his lyrical output on his blog www.music-mind.de

Enjoy this irresitable mix dedicated to style, flow and deep knowledge of how to move behinds... I mean butts.

Trushmix 208  - Finn Johannsen

For the past few years we’ve been mesmerized by Elijah Minnelli’s output on his own Breadminster County Council label… a handful of hand-crafted 7”s that live at the foggy intersection of dub, outsider folk, and various strands of Eastern European and South/Central American musics. In hindsight it seems inevitable that he would join the ZamZam family. 

Firmly rooted in dub through its mammoth bassline, ‘Gradually’ is a shaggy, unhurried tune framed by melancholy, almost grieving squeezebox and gorgeous ensemble percussion that reverently recalls early cumbias. The tune is unique for Elijah in that it features fully-sung vocals. Themes of loss, despair, tragedy and coping circle and loop, ironically held in a musical matrix that spirals in deliberate repetition. 

In ‘Gradually Verzion’ the introduction of a minimal melodic figure and long echo trails signal a dramatic shift, going full dubwise steppers without compromising its warm center.  Elijah holds back the wheezy melody, deftly forwarding the percussion in time-honored echo chamber mode.

Our soundcloud clips are always recorded straight from the vinyl with flat EQ so you know exactly what you're getting. 

Strictly limited to 700 copies for the world. No digital, no repress. Art, design & screen print by Polygon Press. Mastered by Sam at Precise, Pressed at Third Man. Shipping early November, 2023.

ZamZam 95 is a link with the enigmatic French producer Hiss Is Bliss. We’ve been fans since the very first drop on their 777Hz label and these two sides drive straight to the heart of the dub techno galaxy.

Little is known about Hiss Is Bliss beyond the fact that they hail from France, are steeped in esotericism, and create tunes as masterfully grounded in roots reggae as they are in techno and related strands of electronic music. Their releases are utterly free of hype, beautifully crafted 10” vinyl plates that let the singers and tracks speak for themselves. 

At the risk of being cheeky, “Nope” is absolute dub techno bliss. The 808 kick propels the track relentlessly forward, saturated washes of color streak the night sky, while syncopated hi hats and warm, soulful chords bring life- dare we say funk- to a style too often stiff and clinical, too in thrall to the past to truly step forward. Matching Hiss is Bliss in mystery, Ras Lys’ vocal brings a Dread perspective on music and the sometimes shady business of music, a grounded contrast to the deep inner space explored by the tune itself. The B-side version “Abbadia” splits musical atoms through the desk, focusing squarely on the stripped 4/4 elements and gloriously distorted pads that echo and cycle like tides in a darkly shimmering sea. 

Strictly limited to 800 copies for the world. No digital, no repress. Art, design & screen print by Polygon Press. Mastered by Sam at Precise, pressed at Cascade Record Pressing. Shipping late May, 2024.

Our Soundcloud clips are recorded straight from the vinyl with no additional mastering so you know exactly what you're getting.

MISSIONQUEST (level 6)

Jim Coles’s fifth instalment of his best-selling ‘Acid Dub Studies’ series arrives in the form of the third set of original works exploring the infectious sound of the 303 bass-line in a dubwise setting. The album takes in traditional dub mixing approaches in a digital and roots/digi-dub style whilst also making space for more electronic and ambient processes to close the project.

‘Acid Dub Studies III’ arrives after 2 years of touring the material in a live setting at festivals and clubs including CTM at Berghain, Les Nuits Sonores, and Andrew Weatherall's Convenanza festival and is the culmination of some 5 years of experimenting with a style that has been met with critical acclaim, reaching far and wide into many a DJ’s box having been noted by some as a truly ground-breaking approach to working with the 303.
