'Through the dense fog of dance music anonymity, past the airbrushed, manicured landscapes of image self-promotion, there sometimes breaks through a warm neon glow of an uncontained talent and personality. A genuine article. A real deal...'

FF009 | Tigerskin | Holy Space Heat EP  | Out 01.07.2019

01 - Heat (Restored By Stefan Janson)
02 - The Holy Grail - Original Version (Restored By Stefan Janson)
03 - The Holy Grail - Vintage Dub Mix (Restored By Stefan Janson)
04 - Space Samba (Restored By Stefan Janson)

After receiving many requests from friends, fans and followers, we decided for our 9th release to bring back the two versions of Tigerskin's now-classic 'The Holy Grail', originally recorded in late 2007 and released on Mood Music plus another deep favourite 'Heat' which was released on Dirt Crew back in 2009. The fourth piece 'Space Samba' was the B-side to 'The Beach', released on the short-lived Monza Label in 2009, that unfortunately remained too much 'under the radar' that the music stayed widely unknown until now. Enjoy the trip! All Tracks were beautifully restored by Stefan Janson and mastered by Salz-Mastering.

Kicking off Poker Flat's 20th anniversary series of remixes, Tim Engelhardt drops two sublime re-interpretations of Berkson & What's classic cut Keep On featuring vocals from the legendary Robert Owens.  

With a back catalogue that spans over more than 300 releases it's no surprise that many Poker Flat tracks have remained club and DJ staples to this day, so to celebrate the anniversary the label hand picked a number of key records for a remix 
treatment. 

Here, Tim Englehardt launches the series in typically exemplary fashion with two intricate, emotionally-charged and utterly compelling remixes. 

As one of Cologne’s youngest and brightest electronic music stars, Tim has become a key player in the Poker Flat family over the last few years, releasing a slew of incredible singles and EPs, not to mention his debut album 'Moments Of Truth' in 2017. Since then he has grown in stature to become one of the most respected producers on the circuit. 

His first remix is a slow-burning, broken beat re-imagining, with gently undulating synths, dramatic chords and ethereal pads providing a hypnotic base over which Owens vocal works its magic. 

With his other remix, Engelhardt retains many of the elements of the former version but this time employs a more traditional 4/4 structure, adding a slow-burning tension with dramatic pads, dreamy synth stabs and glistening keys.

Romanian Native BOg makes welcomed return to Watergate Records, joining forces with LKF Project for new EP ‚Her Song‘. 

With a string of releases on some of electronic music’s most compelling labels including Crosstown Rebels, Bedrock and Diynamic, BOg has steadily forged his reputation as one to watch. Following his input to the ‚Watergate 25 – Adana Twins‘ compilation with ‚Tribelune‘, BOg returns to Watergate Records, this time teaming up with exciting new vocal-led outfit LKF Project who have already made waves with a release on Agoria’s Sapiens imprint.

‚Her Song‘ is driven by the sombre, ambient vocals of the LKF Project, underpinned by its undulating bassline. It ebbs and flows, gradually culminating to deliver a satisfying dancefloor moment. The dynamic Dub version of ‚Her Song‘ sees the track’s energy intensified, propelled forward by its intricate layers and breakbeats. The EP concludes with ‚Discrete Class‘, both rolling and introspective, it perfectly fuses the groove of house with the asceticism of techno, a sound that BOg’s signature style lends him to.

Kotelett & Zadak have been spreading their cheeky take on House for some while now, maintaining their outlandish fishing-related back-story over the standard/boring DJ duo biography. Although keen to bring a sense of fun to electronic music, their music is anything but flippant. 

'Never Enough' is the new release on Poker Flat Recordings, showcases the duo’s production chops. Slowly building from an atmospheric start, a thick, tight groove shines through, augmented by beautifully crafted percussive and melodic patterns. 

It feels like the perfect record for summer sunsets or sunrises, and is sure to win over dancefloors everywhere.

The Italian-born, classically trained DJ and producer Francesca Lombardo makes her first appearance on Poker Flat with a double tracker entitled 'Flumen'. 

Lombardo has forged a unique path for herself in underground circles, building up a formidable back catalogue of tracks and enviable performances at some of the best party locations in the world. Here, she demonstrates her mastery at the controls with two tracks that riff on the theme of water, and how rivers move through time and space. 

'Flumen' flows hypnotically, a thick beat that provides the basis for the ominous, unpredictable melodic flourishes around the edges. 

'Psycho', as the name suggests, brings things to a climax, a rushing, powerful surge of tech house that ramps up the tension via interwoven synth lines and bubbling bass pulses.

No.19 Music welcomes back long-time associate Louie Fresco for a first solo EP since 2014, with standout remixes from Bas Ibellini and Shaun Reeves making this another fantastic package.

Fresco debuted on this label in 2012, and since then has served up the essential Autophobia album in 2014 and two further EPs. After a couple of quiet years, the Mexican tastemaker is back with more of his hard to categorise house and tech tunes, once again bringing plenty of quality to the table.

Fantastic opener ‘Black Wax’ is a heavyweight deep house tune with swirling pads and edgy stabs. A muffled vocal adds an old school feel and this one really builds the mood nicely. 'Aliens (Black Wax Pt.2)’ is another super fresh offering, this time with a slinky, futuristic and upbeat tech feel that has a spaced out vibe and killer bassline. The excellent ‘Between Boroughs’ then layers up punchy broken beat patterns with romantic sax lines and crisp hits into a timeless house track perfect for intimate clubs who like their music to have a real sense of heart.

First to remix ‘Black Wax’ is Bas Ibellini, the Tuskegee and Crosstown Rebels artist and founder of the Peculiar party. His version is filled with subtle tension, leggy drums and deep looping bass that keeps on pulling you in as the pressure mounts. Last of all, Visionquest man, Detroit tastemaker and key underground figure Shaun Reeves reworks the same track into something superbly deep and horizontal, with echoing hits and distant, spooky pads bringing a heady, cosmic feel.

These are five first class house tracks with a real sense of style.

Get Physical’s ACID LOVE Vol. 2 compilation is in the making for later this year, lovingly selected, edited and mixed once again by Roland Leesker, but before that comes a first teaser EP including a big Doorly remix of Phuture, a killer track from Morpei and an instrumental from Leesker himself.

The aim of the Acid Love compilations is in the title, and no such collection could possibly be complete without a track from the genre’s founding fathers, Phuture. It is the cross-genre specialist, festival headliner and sometime Radio 1 host Doorly who remixes the legendary Chicago band’s ‘Your Only Friend’ in arresting fashion to open up this EP. In the UK artist’s hands it becomes a low slung, sleazy jack track with raw, razor-sharp hi hats and gurgling 303 lines that will explode any dance floor, especially once the naughty original vocal line comes in.

Next up is Bolivian star Morpei, who is now based in LA and has established himself as a respected name having played to crowds all over North and South America. He’s hit the upper end of the Beatport Tech House charts with tunes on this label as well as Simma Black and Audiophile, and shows why here. His fantastic ‘Fisico’ is a warm, bass-driven roller with modulated acid lines that slowly but surely grow ever more wild and central, and make an indelible mark
in the process.

Lastly, long time studio talent Roland Leesker steps up with an instrumental of ‘Music Is Here.’ It’s a brilliantly playful cut with undulating acid lines and raw percussion that ride on top of fat kick drums and is sure to get the floor in raptures.

These are three terrific cuts that suggest Acid Love Vol. 2 is set to be another essential collection.

'Label fave Philipp Gonzales is back with another 3 tracker oozing of coolness.

We go deep here, as the title track 'silent Journey' opens things up nicely. A moody bass led and a sparse vibe meets some dubby tones and classic pads, all merge wonderfully for some late night action.

Heading in a darker direction and getting tougher, we find 'Suburban Grooves'. Techier tinges and a wonky feel adds mystique to this mind worker for those deeper dancefloors.

To close, we are treated to 'The Long Road'. A spacious and squelchy affair, whispered vocals and dubby moments al gel superbly. deep and deadly.'

Dreamteam pairing of Defaultman and Sapurra collaborate on this highly impressive 3 tracker for Poker Flat Wax. The two have collaborated frequently before, and with this vinyl only release, the juices are really flowing. 
'Paperman' kicks things off - a slinky mid- tempo groover with an edge. The tight drums keep the rhythm ticking over while dub fx and a thick bassline add the drama and suspense. 
On the flip comes 'Groove Tutorial' - as fair a name as any when the programming is this good. The beat shuffles and chugs along, always staying fresh and interesting, while a minimal layer of other instrumentation adds depth. 
'Lessons Cost' rounds off the EP, a full jazzy-house excursion that showcases the producers’ wide ranging talents and ear for rhythmic excellence.

Out now on Crosstown Rebels: lnk.to/CRM223

Damian Lazarus will celebrate the tenth anniversary of his acclaimed 2009 debut album ‘Smoke The Monster Out’ with the release of a re-mastered and expanded edition on his label Crosstown Rebels on the 27th September. In celebration of such a milestone, Moment In The Dark EP acts as a precursor, featuring two of the album’s original tracks, Moment and Diamond In The Dark reworked and remixed by Keinemusik resident Adam Port, rising newcomer Tibi Dabo and Dutch talent Satori.

Released in 2009, Smoke The Monster Out album was a milestone in Damian’s career. The first time he had written and produced his own music. Drawing on the inspirations that informed his Lazpod series, Damian emerged from studio sessions with Arthur Jeffes (Penguin Cafe Orchestra), Luke Solomon and Mark Ralph with an album. It was a brave album from a DJ not afraid to experiment, wear his heart on his sleeve or risk his successful DJing career by singing on his own music. Even today, it’s a fantastically unique album that refuses easy categorisation. It received critical acclaim from some of the scene’s most respected publications at the time - and also some degree of confusion. Indeed, The Guardian went as far as describing the album: “Less troubled and deep than Björk's Debut, it still captures the atmosphere of late-night clubland – the transcendent freedom, the fuzzy unreality, the implicit emptiness, the dysfunction – with a similar potent accuracy. That it does so by fusing Ricardo Villalobos and Robert Wyatt, and slipping in a Scott Walker cover, might explain why it is not being hailed as one of the crossover albums of the year. But it is."

Damian described how the inspiration for the album came from “what I know best, about what goes on in the darkness of dancefloors”. This innate connection between Damian and his audience created an album that struck a poignantly emotional chord with its listeners. The release of Moment In The Dark is no different, providing the perfect taste as to what can be expected from the upcoming album re-release.

The EP begins with the original tracks. Two equally slow-burning, emotion-filled cuts. Moment is an epic, gently unfolding piece, whilst Diamond In The Dark showcases a soul-infused, folk-rock sensibility. Keinemusik stalwart Adam Port provides a winding journey in his remix of Moment, that drifts between safari-like melodies and touching beautiful vocals. Rising newcomer Tibi Dabo offers an ethereal re-work of Diamond In The Dark, one that features a slick, minimal bassline coupled alongside pulses of fantasy-like vocals, before Dutch talent Satori rounds off the release with a moving cut that features soft keys and wholesome, warming pads.
