Sint : Zonmist [BC08]

Sint is Mr. Niek Brouwer from the Netherlands, and he makes beautiful electronic music that you’ve never heard before with machines that you’ve probably heard before. Operating in the vein of things like Bochum Welt, early Aphex and CiM (with a healthy dose of Drexciya)…basically imagine the most playful and melodic braindance, filled to the brim with catchy synth lines, funky drums and warm analog goodness, and there you are in the midst of Sint’s Zonmist. We at RP don’t mind confessing to you that Zonmist is one of our favorite things to come out of the label yet, and will probably go down in history as one of the best things we ever released, so really – do yourself a favor and grab this album. If you have a few bucks, do yourself a bigger favor and order a copy of the limited CD-R. It’s only packed chock-full of 6 bonus tracks and 2 remixes by Milieu and Mrs Jynx! And there’s only 50 of them! Go go go!”

Toys Market : Toys Market (EP) [self released]

“Independent project, where you won’t find any kind of political or commercial influence on music, moreover there is no one-style sounding. On Toys Market concerts you might hear some horror music, mixed with hard hip-hop bits, deliberately played childrens songs and freakish scratch. Special attention is given to wind instruments timbre,
improvisations of witch are developing in modal-jazz.”

Ingemar Stalholm : The Koster LP [blpsq029]

“Ingemar makes a grand return to our label with this 46 minute continuous journey into microscopic and dynamic soundscapes. Riding the fine line between meticulous and incidental, this unpredictable album unfolds like liquid origami bristling with organic static. Even the track titles resonate with futurist poetics in this inspiring session, rich with techno grit and glitched out daydreams.”

Audiofetish : Soul Elevation [isc019]

Audiofetish‘s exploration and research of electronic music began at the age of 10 years. Back in 1991, he programmed music in Basic on a VIC-20 with a 3 kB RAM extension. He is one of the few “real” musicians in the scene. Many of his tracks reflect his fine feeling for harmony and melody. His remixes for various artists from different genres have a very high popularity. Besides electronic dance music, he also produces soundtracks and other soundscapes, in which he presents his musical knowledge to the test.”

C-Doc : Divided We Stand [BSOG0020]

“…and finally it’s here! The new album by Public Enemy producer/EMCEE/filmmaker, David ‘C-Doc’ Snyder, is finally available for you to download and enjoy. There’s absolutely no doubt in my mind that you’ll enjoy it. That’s no malarky, let me tell you…

Considering the incredible work that C-Doc has been turning out for Public Enemy, The Impossebulls and his & Tirade’s LOWdown, I was quite eager to hear what he had cooked up for his solo release! When I first heard it about a week ago, I was floored. Even better than I expected, and my expectations were fairly high! Divided We Stand is twelve tracks of no holds barred, high-quality music for hip-hop connoisseurs.

Although this is a C-Doc album… it’s no mistake that the album cover states ‘Featuring The Impossebulls’ prominently. For those of you in the know, you will notice a couple of the Bulls members featured prominently on the album and singles. For those of you not in the know, no worries… along with C-Doc… DJ Def Chad, Marcus J Gilligan & Tirade are all members of The Impossebulls… a virtual rapp squad that was originally put together by none other than the great Chuck D via PublicEnemy.com’s EnemyBoard back in the late 90s. The Impossebulls went on to release their debut album ‘Slave Education’ via Chuck’s label SlamJamz in 2004. What the future holds for The Impossebulls, only the squad can say, but for now, this album should tide you over. Never have these Bulls sounded SO good!”

Nature : Forget The Theory [AT031]

Forget The Theory features two arrangements and five original pieces written by Kevin Higgins for his group Nature – a quartet with voice, electric guitar, electric bass and drums. The material was honed in a dozen live performances, then recorded over two days in spring 2012. The result is an album of dark grooves, mixing techno, funk and dubstep with contemporary jazz.

In the foreground, ethereal vocals and frenzied guitar carry on an improvised dialogue. Forget The Theory captures the energy of their alternating conflict and cooperation. Behind them there’s tension of another kind, as club-inspired drum beats threaten to melt into jazz cross-rhythms.

This album was built off basslines: some abstract and symmetrically structured, some just funky. Either way, every tune was designed to make you nod your head. Enjoy the bouncy pulse and powerful perfomances of a young band playing with passion.”
