Artist: HUNDARNA FRAN SODER
Title: EP
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: VOLT 008EP
"Daniel Savio, Tor Lowkrantz, Aksel Friberg citizens of Sweden deep and frozen fresh for your ears, we are happy to bring this fine release to you. These 3 young men are truly talented and bring just enough but never too much to every song on this EP. A1) 'Reunion' -- a constant favorite here at Volt HQ. This is a fine lesson in deep, feeling music. Makes me smile and cry. A2) 'Regn' -- Ahh the long winter nights, driving for something to do. Early morning sunshine, heavy frost. A fine breakfast indeed. B1) 'Reporter' -- Electro rhythms fly with deep chords and delay, recalling bitstreams of pleasure. B2)'Codex Eticus' -- Possibly the best is saved for last -- sustaining pads, mini kliks and synth heaven take us to the happy/sad center of our label."


Artist: ARCHITECT, THE
Title: Easy Life
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: VOLT 009EP
One of Jay Haze's working identities. His releases as The Architect are "primarily geared to bring glitch and deepness to the dancefloor -- tracks that make you shake your booty while dousing your head in minimal crackles, scrapes, scrunches, warm tones and rolling basslines."


Artist: PAN/TONE
Title: Sans Adore
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00
Catalog #: VOLT 013EP
"Pan/Tone makes well thought-out crackling minimal with soul. Remarkable record!"


Artist: SWAYZAK
Title: The Missing EP
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: VOLT 015EP
Sometime around 1999, Swayzak released a 50 copies-only white label of tracks "Easy " and "Hof Ter Lo" as a taster of their 2000 album Himawari. Sadly, neither of these tracks made the album in the end, but are now remixed and re-edited by Rennie Foster and Shane Berry. The originals are brought back to life, and given a twist in a new direction. Ten years on, 240 Volts plough through their archives and give a new feeling to these old tunes.


Artist: VA
Title: Saddle The Horses Part 1
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: VOLT 016EP
Swayzak return with their sub legendary 240 Volts label. This is a 3-track sampler selected from the Saddle The Horses compilation: Richard Davis' "The Blue" is a classic deep house crooner that tugs at the emotional psyche. Ben Vedren's "In" is growling, super deep-space house of the minimal nature and Blufarm's "Not Poor" is a deep, chugging, jacking tune and perhaps a reference to the native of San Francisco's journey from war-torn Beirut to California via Russian professional football.


Artist: TAYLOR, JAMES
Title: Leave Me Alone
Label: 240 VOLTS (GERMANY)
Format: 10"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: VOLT 241EP
"As the vampire rises in the evening dusk, this 2-sided 10" record is a form of rebirth, a second chance or ghost of another time. Originally released on the long unavailable vinyl-only LP of Carthage Milk by Swayzak's James Taylor. These two overlooked swingers are presented in full, glorious, unedited form. Remastered at Dubplates and Mastering (Berlin) they are polyrythmic and ultra-detailed, yet you can sing along! Warm and organic, they blurp and blart a path from the ear to the hips. 'Leave Me Alone' starts in dub house land, quickly taking off with some ever-shifting grooves and an oh-so-blue synth line. Like a hundred tubes of Smarties at once shaking and melting in your hot little hands as everything reduces to a super sweet over-saturated solution of sound. 'Recto/Verso' is the upstart little brother, both annoying and endearing. Its crooning cut-up voices lead us to a superdiluted acid line that comes down via some nasal vowel sounds. A tribute to the lost art of the photocopier. Thanks to Alexxx of Logistic for letting us bring these back to life, thanks also to RRR, DJ Purple and Roger23. And thank you, dear listener."
