SILINDER - RUBBERHUMP

Stripped Recordings

We welcome Irish producer SILINDER to the fold for release number 16 on Stripped Recordings.His track Rubberhup has al;ready recieved mant plays chart action and rave reviews from SASHA (who features the track on his special Thank You Mix 2008 live from Amnesia,Ibiza on his website www.djsasha.com),HERNAN CATTANEO & JAMES ZABIELA to name three.

Now the track will be available for the first time just before Xmas with a remix ep to follow in early 2009. SILINDER http://www.myspace.com/silinder Silinder is the brainchild of Gav Mulhall. Born back in 2002 from a love of dark and electronic sounds.

You won’t have to listen too hard to hear Silinder’s diverse range of musical influences in his music,which ranges from, Nine Inch Nails, The Cure and Depeche Mode, to, Infusion, Evil Nine and King Unique. The first Silinder tracks to be produced were “The Light Gets In”, “Junkfool” and “Shadowplay”,and it wasn’t long untill these were picked up by Irish label “Fudge Recordings” and were made available on the various digital download sites.

These debut tracks showcased Silinder’s dark side of progressive house and breakbeat. Moving forward to 2005, a young dj by the name of James Zabiela picked up the Silinder remixes of New Order’s “Blue Monday and his own track “Robophobia”, and decided that they were good enough to spin on his travels around the globe. The Silinder remix of “Robophobia” was also featured on the september issue of Dj Mag cover cd which was mixed by Meat Katie and James himself and released on Dj Download by Renaissance.

Now in 2007,Silinder has releases on numerous labels including Renaissance and Kriece’s own Kindred Label Group and Composure Records UK and in 2008 has signed music to Irish based label Amalgam Audio and Manchester's Segment Records and the Stripped stable.

He is now busy in the studio a couple of new tracks and remixes for us and we are pleased to have this accomplished producer in the fold.

8th December 2008 will see the release of ‘Williams’ Blood’, the first single to be taken from Grace Jones’ breathtaking new album, ‘Hurricane’, released on Wall Of Sound.

Enigmatic Grace, who this week released her first studio album in nearly twenty years, has been enjoying a stunning return. Hurricane, the new LP co-produced by Grace herself along with Ivor Guest, has seen Ms Jones collaborate with old friends Sly and Robbie as well as the likes of Brian Eno.

2008 has seen the recently crowned Q Awards Idol winner reenter the public consciousness with a sensational show at this year’s Meltdown Festival that was the live event of the year and startling recent appearances on “Tonight With Jonathan Ross” and ‘Later… with Jools Holland”. A dramatic, uplifting and positive track, ‘Williams’ Blood’ projects Grace’s versatility and relevance in today’s pop culture.

With guest vocals from Grace’s mother, Marjorie, the track is a personal insight into the World of Ms Jones. A video directed by the elusive (and highly selective) Chris Cunnigham is also in production, promising to add further kudos and attention to this already iconic campaign. Remixes of the track come courtesy of Mad Professor, Greg Wilson and Ivor Guest - with more to be announced in the very near future.

Also just announced are the UK Hurricane tour dates, which will sweep across the UK in January 2009.

GREAT SUMMERGAMES STUFF‏

24 anthems by 24 amazing artists from 24 different countries to support their national teams at the Olympic summer games in the Chinese capital Beijing. This is the concept behind the second Great Stuff compilation (after the very successfull Great Carnival Stuff earlier this year) full of wonderful exclusive tracks.

And of course the original Olympic idea (“not to win but to take part”) is inseparably linked to the respect of the human rights. Be it in the sports stadium or on the dancefloor. This ideal is emphasized by the Austrian duo Makossa & Megablast who decided to start for Tibet (instead of their home country) with a Mantra spoken by Konchok Yoenten: Düsum Sangye (The Prayer to Guru Rinpoche for Removing Obstacles and Fulwilling Wishes: Guru Rinpoche, the Buddha of past, present and future. "Dewa Chenpo" - Guru of Gre! at Bliss-the source of all the Siddhis. "Düd Dül Drakpo Tsal" - Wrathful One that subdues Negativity - who removes all obstacles. Grant your blessings we pray! Through them, may all obstacles-outer, inner and secret- be quelled, and may all our aspirations be fulfilled.

Namaste!

Style Of Eye - “Duck, Cover And Hold”

Dear partners and friends,

lock up your genres - Linus Eklow, aka Style Of Eye, is ripping up the rule book with his debut artist album “Duck, Cover And Hold”.Out in September 2008 on Pickadoll.

Linus’ most recent productions on Dirtybird and John Dahlbäck’s Pickadoll label have been immense - “The Big Kazoo” E.P (Dirtybird), was followed up by “The Prophet” (Pickadoll). With a remix for Moby under his belt and a tour in the pipeline, Style of Eye is proof that cutting edge house isn’t Sweden’s only hottest export...

As you’d expect from someone who cites influences as diverse as Stevie Wonder, nineteenth century classical composer Edvard Grieg, and Yello, Style of Eye isn’t keen to be pigeonholed. “Since I take in so much different music and put it in a blender I wanted to be able to put everything I see and that inspires me into one project.

This album is a huge step from my first release but you can still hear that it’s me. ‘Duck, Cover And Hold’ was almost a year in the making, and felt like the perfect time to put things in a bigger perspective. So I wanted to make a dancefloor album but one that could also be heard as one CD, that could travel through different styles, but you could still connect the dots between the first and last tracks,“ says Linus.

Style Of Eye - July 2008 Mix

1 Noze - You have to dance (SOE edit)

2 Style Of Eye - Clown

3 Martin Eyerer - Furthermore (Oliver Klein & Peter Juergens Mix)

4 Style Of Eye - Amelie

5 Vaeth vs Flugel - Trashbindance

6 Steve Mac, Marc Bell - Bells Of Brighton (Popof Mix)

7 Rhythm Code - Rise (Popof Mix)

8 Style Of Eye - Girls Dub

9 Style Of Eye – Psalm

JUAN TRIP' "FIREPLACE"

“Consolation”, his last album, was an opera rock LP which charmed the world of directors (Broken English directed by Zoé Cassavetes and J'ai toujours rêvé d'être un Gangster by Samuel Benchetrit) as well as mainstream rock magazines (Rolling Stones).

Juan Trip’ has been manufactured by the past and “Fireplace”, his new album, is deeply influenced by psychedelic years. Although the production of its 20 tracks is perfectly arranged, well-thought and definitely turned to the future.

2008, Juan Trip’ is back with his new LP crossing Velvet Underground, Jefferson Airplane and 13th Floor Elevators. To sum up, here is one of the “must have” rock albums of the year which includes tracks with no limit between rock and 3rd millenium trip. Juan Trip’ is always on the run !

going to be released on -> Influential House

Son Of Decepticon

The City Burns

Camden rocker, techno junkie and keyboard player in the band “The Jonas”, Chris Shield gears himself for a foray away from the usual dingy UK live venues with his first electronica single “The City Burns”.

The original mix plays off his Depeche Mode style vocal hook which simmers on top of the heavy, jilted, layered base line and which builds it’s way upwards through the bleepery towards its dramatic climax.

Ludo provides the B side mix with an energetic house house mix caked with attitude and screaming synth lines.

going to be released on -> Bleach Records

GO THAT DEEP - NUfrequency ft. Shara Nelson.

NUfrequency are back with another taster from their first album, to be released early next year. And this is something really special ! It features the beautiful vocals of the legend Shara Nelson, who achieved the success as member of British dance collective and trip-hop pioneers Massive Attack. Shara wrote and sung one of the biggest and most memorable anthems, and the group's biggest hit, "Unfinished Sympathy," and also co-wrote several other songs on their groundbreaking debut album, Blue Lines.

The Original mix of Go That Deep is a beautiful and sublime piece of music, an heart-breaking song with emotional lirycs and an extraordinary interpretation from Shara, a soul singer with a voice from heaven; dark and touching. Charles Webster goes deep and moody wilth an high quality mix, already loved and supported in every gig by Ben Watt, Âme, Dixon and Diesel on mp3 passed by Charles !!! Redanka couldn't do a better work, with two fantastic mixes, bringing back the old school progressive house vibe!
