Le Martz, HD Substance - Indoinha EP


Release Date: 8 May 2017
Label: SUB tl

It’s time for our young argentinian agent to have his very own EP in the house. He offers three original cuts plus a remix by label boss Hd Substance. 
-Indoinha is an energetic number, fat kicks, heavy sub action, harsh synths and a clever arrangemet. 
-Quimera starts with a broken beat, spiced with white noise washes and panned drums until melodic synth lines take over the arrangement. An epic peak time mover away from conventional grooves. 
-Hd Substance reviews Indoinha, solid grooves, flanged analogue lines, reberverated drones and melancholic strings. 
-Almost the last closes the release with a solid beat made of heavy low frequencies and shuffled synthetic components until repetitive arpeggiated lines appear adding tension and energy talking to each other in a continuous fight.

Tracklist:
1. Le Martz - Indoinha 06:45
2. Le Martz - Quimera 06:18
3. Indoinha (HD Substance Remix) 07:15
4. Le Martz - Almost the last 05:03

Notilus - Notilus


Release Date: 12 May 2017

Notilus is the new project of five established French musicians combining cinematic soundscapes, energetic jazz and atmospheric live electronics. With a decent amount of performances at several French festivals the quintet presents its s/t debut album via Denovali in spring 2017. The cleverly compiled repertoire varies from positively trombone and sax driven jazz parts with a deep sense for sophisticated melodies to calmer, melancholic soundscapes back to beat driven, dynamic, buzzy sound cascades. Sometimes the albums delivers a feeling of a soundtrack for a 70s crime movie - sometimes it sounds like an intergalactic, retro-futuristic trip - always with an ironic and positive view on the own creative work.

With Notilus, the five musicians embark on a journey towards the centre of the Earth, towards the pentaquarks, towards the tips of Pluto's icy peaks and beyond. The spatio-temporal ship made some stops on the planets Jazz, Trap, 70 's, Bass, Dark and Psyche. The infectious smile creating live performance of Notilus captured in ten diversified and timeless pieces.

Tracklist:
1. Tangerine
2. Behind
3. Pop Porn
4. Kuku
5. Green Smile
6. Alien
7. Sapin
8. Orgella
9. Valse a plumes

PIEK - Despertar


Release Date: 15 March 2017
Label: Sincopat

“Despertar” is one of the most intriguing and beautiful albums to emerge from the Spanish’s electronic music scene in 2017. A celebrated debut by the Elizondo (Pamplona) based artist Piek, one of a kind emerged from the most versatile musical scene, not in vain he creates inspired by the magic of great names such as Sigur Ros, Moderat or Bonobo. 
“Despertar” is the title chosen for the debut LP of this producer and dedicated music lover from Elizondo. One of a kind due to his versatility exploring into skittering beats and a magnetic electronic music. On the album no two tracks are wholly similar; each have their own distinguishing features and incredible songwriting. Are you awake for a unique journey into synth soundtracks, contemporary soul music, futuristic hip-hop rhymes and floating beats? 
One of the virtues contained in this album is when the artist builds his songs around guest vocals, adding a unique panache but also sacrificing total control. When Piek identifies and aligns his instrumental aesthetic with the emotive output of his guests - Ria, Ryan Roush, Cheney, Kash, Hokhok, Zebulon and Jim Hast- the results are just amplifying and electrifying. “Despertar” contains also an audible gold featuring by the music-composer Fabel and a Tony Phillips poem.

1. Intense Kiss 05:26
2. The Son With The Father's Gun (Feat. Ria, Ryan Roush & Cheney) 05:16

Nuage - WILD


Release Date: 5 May 2017

“WILD” is the most complete musical work by Nuage up to date. Following a thought-out plan from beginning to finish – with a real introduction, development, and conclusion – the album is influenced foremost by the sun, sea and tropics. The music slowly evolves from warm and uplifting songs towards colder and more mysterious realms. 

Taking a full year to finish the album, including the entire change of season from summer to winter, memories of trips to Mexico, the mountains, and the seaside fade away and are replaced by days at home and in the studio in cold St. Petersburg. At the same time the music itself goes through a very personal development from outgoing moments to parts of personal reflection. 

Without adding too much weight or philosophy to the music, the album is an easy and natural listening experience that explores contrasting and at times contradicting themes between summer and winter, cold and warm, introverted and extroverted and many layers in between, while also harmonizing the musical past, present and future of Nuage. 

Following his critically acclaimed “Neida” EP from 2015 (FACT, BBC Radio 1, thump, XLR8R, Clash, Ransom Note, among many others), “WILD” comes out worldwide in limited colored double vinyl and features such guests as his friend BOP, Brooklyn based BAILE, Olga Maximova (Harp), and Belle (of Left Rib)

Tracklist:
1. Occur 02:51
2. Every PPL 05:53
3. Secret Jungle 05:03

10. Rivers Reverse Feat. Bop 04:44

Brother Ali - All The Beauty In This Whole Life


Release Date: 5 May 2017

Over the past 17 years, Brother Ali has earned wide critical acclaim for his deeply personal, socially conscious, and inspiring brand of hip-hop. Under Rhymesayers Entertainment, he’s unleashed a series of lauded projects, establishing himself as one of the most respected independent voices in music. The latest chapter in that celebrated journey is All the Beauty in This Whole Life, a 15-track collection produced entirely by Atmosphere’s Anthony “Ant” Davis. 

"This entire album is based on the reality that beauty is the splendor of truth" says the Minneapolis MC. "Beauty in all of its forms is the outward manifestation of love and virtue. It soothes the soul and pulls it gently toward the truth it communicates. Every word and note of this album is intended to either reflect beauty, or expose the ugliness that blocks us from living lives of meaning." 

All the Beauty in This Whole Life is Ali’s first official release in five years and represents the newest and most refined chapter of his life's journey. "Each of my albums are the result of the pain, growth and eventual healing that I experience. Articulating the pain and navigating the healing allows the people who really feel my music to travel with me. It's not only that we hurt together, we heal together as well." 

Contrasting intensely heavy moments with joyous and grateful ones, All the Beauty in This Whole Life arrives right on time, to help heal a divided nation through the power of music. Ali wouldn’t have it any other way. "In times of great suffering in the outside world, the most important battles start from within."
