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

Roman Flügel's a massive favourite of the Mixmag crew. 

Can you blame us? The German's been in the game for about two decades, putting together cranky house and techno cuts on labels like Ongaku Musik, Cocoon Recordings and Live At Robert Johnson.

Dario D'Attis Feat. Lisa Shaw - All Over Again (Rocco Deep Mix)

After years apart, we've finally got the boys back on our screens later this month. What better way to celebrate than by marking another return, to the label of their post-breakout "Stash" victory lap. Aus, Belfast and Boiler Room: there's no place like home.

"Just" wastes no time locking the brisk rhythm into place before a wriggling earworm of a lead pans across the channels. Atmospheric swells are pieced by gatling-gun snares; the tension builds but never releases, making this a surefire precursor to the bulk of heavyweight set climaxes you're likely to hear this summer. As ever, the aural equivalent of 20,000 bicep emojis.

Grip the wax May 25th.

Bicep "Just" - Boiler Room Debuts

Joris Voorn's third studio album "Nobody Knows" saw him embark on a atmospheric odyssey, departing his club comfort zone to be named Dance/Electronic album of 2014 by Billboard. 

A masterpiece of indie and electronic influences, "Nobody Knows" is now re-presented and remixed by an impressive array of studio talent; a dynamically diverse selection of producers and artists across many genres. 

Exquisite reinterpretations ranging from Guti, Roland Klinkenberg, Christian Loeffler and Nightmares on Wax amongst many others; choices which not only represent new fusions but have now come to be a point of pride for both Joris and the label Green in propelling the LP's core personal message even further.

The Wild - Yagya Stripped Remix

DJ Koze's 2013 album opus Amygdala has continued to bewitch all who encounter it since its release. Tipped as his own personal Sgt. Pepper, the sublime long-player revealed a fully-realised and personal body of work, complete with a classic songwriting at its core, House in its heart, and veins coursing with psychedelic color. La Duquesa' was the album's dreamy single standout, a journey into deep, tropical ecstasy. XTC' begins in the same spirit, and captures the all the blissful allusions of its name, but its initial gentility belies the deep intensity to come. Floating pads glow with celestial ambience as a kick drum is gradually coaxed into solid form, and the introduction of spoken text begins the second act. Many people are experimenting with the drug Ecstasy,' it says, ...is the drug like the lie and meditation the truth Or am I missing something that could really help me". XTC' then transforms: sweetly imploring tones become demanding, gentle gradients between chords turn hard-edged, and sharp hi-hats cut through the haze. Complete with Koze's signature percussive quirks, it drives towards the track's final pay off: an undeniable, all-consuming, irresistible high. Knee On Belly' recalls Koze at his most tongue-in-cheek and overt, it is bright, bold and literally brassy, using cut-up horns of all shapes and sizes to patchwork together his own unique arrangement. With the highs and mid ranges accounted for, Koze adds in a swollen, thrumming bass line to mix to bring this floor-filler to life. Knee on Belly' recalls a raw, filtered and funky approach to groove, with a nod to disco house and the art of artful sampling, as it orbits between its own neon highs and simmering lows.

Lyrics

Our words just decay
Can't preserve anything
So we'll just refrain
From really listening

I won't be blinded anymore

Our words are just a cage
But won't preserve anything
Could you hear me through the phase?
Or am I drifting away?

I think I'm drifting away
I won't be blinded anymore 
I won't be blinded anymore

Turn your thoughts to me
I'll know it's real
Learning how to speak
The words you'll hear

Keep me within reach
I'll know it's real
Never knew how to breathe
Without you near

Best of 2015
