As the shadows grow longer Inform are calling back on the skills of Matt Batchelor, better known as Modu.

Like fine cheese and good ale Moduʼs one of the West Countryʼs finest exports. Despite his short time in the D&B scene heʼs already had tunes out on some quality labels including Horizons and their imprint; Inside, Soul Deep Recordings, Artist Recordings, VelcroCityRecords and Pristine Records. The man himself has the high standard of production skills expected of all young DJs with a real flair for the deep and interesting. On INFORM009 he brings the rain.

Timelapse is a glittering slice of future funk, sent back to the past to wreak havoc on unsuspecting dancefloors. The soft, synthy intro lulls you into a false sense of security until it rolls out hard and unleashes a full frontal audial assault replete with a frankly ridiculous bassline that roams through the frequencies. This is the kind of music thatʼd make Robocop cry and promise to be a better person.

When you listen to Window Seat itʼs easy to see why Horizons signed Modu. Like the coming winter itʼs the sound the light makes as it dies. Itʼs a mean minimal stepper thatʼs hungry like the wolf. If Timelapse runs and screams, this lurks in the shadows like predator stalking itʼs prey.

With a bit of a harder direction for Inform but production values easily on par with their back catalogue, this is going to be one to watch. Donʼt say we didnʼt warn you.

Stephen Bruner, Jameszoo & August Rosenbaum jam on a thing called "Fusion" from the official RBMA compilation Various Assets - A Selection of tnes recorded at Red Bull Music Academy 2013

Stephen Bruner, Jameszoo & August Rosenbaum - "Fusion"

Artist: Youlou Mabiala
Titles: Various 
Format: Digital 
Release date: 28th April 2014

--------------------------

Sterns Music is proud to present the simultaneous release of the most complete set of recordings by Youlou Mabiala ever available.

--------------------------

Born Gilbert Youlou in the French Congo on the 3rd of March, 1947, Youlou sang with various groups in and around Brazzaville, but was still a comparative newcomer when 'Le Grand Maitre' Franco heard him there at a club in 1966. Franco was in exile from his native country, the Belgian Congo, soon to be renamed Zaire, but once he could safely cross the Congo River back into Kinshasa, he invited Youlou and the bass player, Bitchou, to go with him and join his great band, OK Jazz. Of course they went.

Youlou had a high, reedy voice that paired well with Franco’s lower, rougher voice, and despite being one of the youngest members of the band, from the late ‘60s into the early ‘70s Youlou proved to be one of the most prominent. But when he and other members of OK Jazz played nzong-nzing (moonlight gigs) once too often, Franco finally lost his patience and in 1972, fired the lot.

Together with Bitchou and guitarist Mose Se Sengo 'Fan Fan', Youlou joined others who’d fallen out with Franco and formed Lovy du Zaire, soon to be followed by Somo Somo. Only one year later however, Franco asked Youlou Mabiala (as he was now officially named) to come back to OK Jazz. Youlou did not refuse.

He returned to an even stronger TPOK Jazz and sang alongside such stars as Sam Mangwana, Josky Kiambukuta and Ntesa Dalienst. He himself became a star, and his compositions hits around Africa. But life in Zaire was becoming difficult, particularly for immigrants from Congo-Brazzaville, so in 1977 he left Kinshasa and went home. There he co-founded Les Trois Frères, which grew, changed its name to Kamikaze Loningisa, and by the ‘80s surpassed even Les Bantous de la Capitale as Brazzaville’s premier band.

Youlou and Franco remained close. Franco produced a Kamikaze Loningisa album in 1982 and a short while later Youlou married Franco’s daughter, Hélène, and the old man began referring to his son-in-law as Prince Youlou. When Franco died in 1989, Youlou disbanded Kamikaze Loningisa and led TPOK Jazz on one of its last albums. He continued working, mainly in Paris, until 2004, when a cardiovascular stroke restricted his ability to perform.

Beginning with 18 albums, including many of his classics and with more to follow, Sterns Music is honoured to have been asked by the artist to oversee the reissue of his excellent catalogue. It is filled to the brim with classic big-band Congolese rumba and odemba-style soukous, brewed from tangy guitars, ripe horns, robust drums and blended voices topped by the tenor that always sounds like it’s coming out through a big smile.

--------------------------------------

The first 18 (with more to come!) 1978-1992. 

Special thanks to Martin Sinnock a.k.a. Papa Mundele along with Brian Parson a.k.a. Zuppe Inglese, for their generosity in allowing us access to their comprehensive collections of African vinyl, tape and CD.
