Balloons over Balaton

June 29th, 2008 No comments


First, thank you to all of you who came out for the short noticed shows by Kyoka and Toytone at the Dense store last week-end. A couple of pictures are now available on our Flickr account.

Several new releases from “important” acts have surfaced this week, providing a soundtrack to everybody’s post football mania (or is it trauma)? It all starts with the very playful, original and tasty “Supreme Balloon” new album by Matmos, then jumps to “Detrimentalist”, the new rave-infused, high speed album by breakcore idol Venetian Snares, to arrive to The Bug long-awaited new full length, “London Zoo”, this time released on Ninja Tune. Jamie Lidell keeps on riding the “Jim” wave, and delivers this week an “Another Day” new single to his recent album.

Switching from confirmed names to newcomers or underrated acts, we were quite impressed by Jasper TX‘s new CD on the great Miasmah label, somewhere between drones and post-rock. The dubstep section also welcomed two “new” heavy hitters this week with new albums and singles by both Ital Tek (on Planet Mu) and Scuba (on their Hotflush label), and the hip hop one gets a very strong album back in stock with Oh No‘s “Dr No’s Oxperiment” on Stones Throw.

Here’s the list. Enjoy, and keep densing.

Straight outta F’hain.

June 18th, 2008 No comments

Before we start: we’re throwing a new in store party this very Saturday (June 21st) for the Fête de La Musique. Performing live at the shop will be Menu exit (Underscan), Hecq (Hymen) and Miwon + Bogger (City Centre Offices, Digital Gadget). The entrance is free, it will all start around 8PM, and go till around 23h. Good music assured.

Pretty varied newsletter this week, as the scope of the spotlight new releases couldn’t be any wider. Judge by yourself. Beatier and more broken are this week Enduser’s latest album, “Left”, finally available on vinyl (we’ve had the CD for some time already), as well as AZ-Rotator‘s new full length album, “Undefinable Sugar Cube”, released on Barcelona’s Lovethechaos label.

On the one hand, big consensus among the Densers for “Die Wichtigkeit”, the debut 12″ on Sonig by Xberg Dhirty Cru, a quite absurd, insane and very tongue-in-cheek record of twisted german hip hop.

On the other hand, things get a lot more serious, a lot cleaner, and a lot more black and white with Alva Noto’s new full length album, “Unitxt”, out on Raster Noton and available on both CD and vinyl as well as with Byetone‘s “Death Of A Typographer” CD, als on Raster Noton.

Another important release just fresh from the pressing plant is the long awaited “Los Angeles” full length by Flying Lotus, in stock on both CD and vinyl

Dubstep fans will enjoy 2562‘s new “Aerial” album, as well as the recent Benga and Coki records on Big Apple, and Rob Spark‘s “Prayer remixes”, featuring a very nice version by Planet Mu’s Distance.

Fresh records for hot days and nights.

June 10th, 2008 No comments

First Dense newsletter since our relocation to the sunny Bersarin Platz. We’re still there (and probably more than ever), and have quite a few releases of notes in catalog this week.

Friends of the dancefloor will shake their bodies to T.Raumschmiere‘s “E” single (available this month at a special, friendly price), as well as to Housemeister‘s new’s “Who Is That Noize” album.
Less tech, more dub: hot and in stock is 2562‘s full length album, “Aerial”, released on Pinch’s Tectonic label. Still in the dubstep bin, we’ve got enough releases on Senseless, Terminal Dusk and Immerse recordings to send all the dubstep kids headnodding for weeks on end.
The rude awakening will come from the breakcore fans, who will bounce around to the new Donna Summer 12″ on Cock Rock Disco and two new relesases on both Peace Off (Dr Bastardo and Amph) and Death$ucker (Krumble and Stivs).
In need of something calmer for some home-listening, you say? Check out the excellent “Treny” album by Jacaszek on Miasma, Ben Frost‘s albums (now both in stock, on CD and vinyl), more or less of all Lustmord’s back catalog or four new releases by the ever prolific Machinefabriek.
Those of you who want to add some guitars could go for the new Bodi Bill album (“Next Time”) and its single, Scorch Trio!‘s new adventure in improv jazz (“Brolt!”), the solo albums by Scott Kelly and Steve Von Till (both of Neurosis), or will go full force and invoke the devil with Lair Of The Minotaur‘s new album on Southern Lord.
And finally, if you’re in need of audio tourism, the “Afrobeat Nirvana” and “Inuit recordings” will help you escape the current heat, while Raymond Scott‘s anthology “Manhattan Research Inc.” will take care of your musical education and humor at the same time.

Here’s the list of all these good news.

Shit for less dough

June 6th, 2008 No comments

80% Shitkatapult, and 20% price drop from DenseCall it “Euro 2008 special”, blame the current heatwave, or see in it a welcome gesture from our new roommates: Dense and Shitkatapult are having a special sales all throughout the month of June: the whole Shitkatapult VINYL catalog (and yes, that includes T.Raumschmiere’s upcoming “E” single) is offered with a 20% rebate from now on till the end of the month. In other words that means: you get every available shitkatapult/meteo-sound 12″ for 6,30 €, LPs for 8,80 €, Double-LPs for ridiculous 10,40 €. We also have some very last copies of the classic 4LP-Box for just 22,- as well as an appropriate collectors item: the out-of-print Apparat “Walls” 2LP in a special edition including the CD-album for just 22,-, too! while stocks last…

That’s a lot more shit for a lot less hard earned cash, and we even have a special section in the store about this. So even if the heat’s killing you or if you’re glued to your TV watching football, don’t pass on it.
