Format: 12"
Price: $11.50
Catalog #: PERL 012EP
1999 release. "During the warm periods of the year strange things often happen to peoples hormone-systems.In the case of Perlon it seems to be leading to tracks that are a bit more in touch with their feminine side. Just in time for the summer they storm your soundsystem with a silky-smooth and laid back vibe. In two solid mixes 'Freaks' (20:20 Vision) re-interpret the original 'Bushes' taken from Perlon10. Also, 'Passion' is an awesome deep hypnotic track with small vocal sections that remind me of Michael Jackson and Prince holding hands in the park and tripping on mushrooms while they are singing love songs together."

The beat-turning arrangement is the key to these never ending tracks, even when you thought you've caught the groove it turns again and starts on another level. A very sexy, well arranged 4 Tracker."

Once more, this album proves that all his life Nicolai will be equipped with the gift of finding the right tone at the right time."

"Two years ago, Perlon released the Superlongevity compilation (PERL10, on vinyl only) that became a 'must have' for music lovers all over the world. Now, with cat. # 23, the label and its artists like to say 'Thank You' with the release of the second part. Nine exclusive, brand new songs out of the Perlon-universe. Panty Tec's opener 'Doubledip Uuh..', recorded by Sammy Dee & Zip right after returning from last years North American tour, was inspired by the spooky myth of a chicken wing recipe, that is kept top secret by an El Paso diner. Narcotic Syntax mastermind James Dean Brown collaborates with Markus Nikolai to present the 'Muff Diver'. A real monster, where elevator funk meets hypo gastric house to transform all electrified bodies to a huge body of love. Side B opens with another brilliant Chicago influenced Soulphitction track entitled 'Phake And Phoney' followed by a collaboration of Baby Ford & Zip, who realized that there was 'No Milk Today'; recorded last year at I-Fach / London. 'Indio Muerto' is brought to you by Luciano, who formerly released PERL16/ 'Sense Club' together with Mr. Villalobos. A nice foretaste to the future planned release by Geneva / Santiago De Chile based Luciano on Perlon. Markus Nikolai has some lascivious 'Chitchat On Sunsetcliff' with wonderful Stephanie De Chico. Again supported by the phenomenally swinging one-man orchestra Theo Krieger. 'The Unexpected Guest' on Superlongevity 2 is Marc Leclair from Montreal/Quebec, who has not released on Perlon yet, but will in the near future. His project Akufen is just getting more and more known through releases on different international outlets, beside Perlon. We call it Hakelhouse. Finally we approach the D-side and get invited by the Dimbiman to join him on an expedition through the depths of dimbiworld; 'hokule'a' will take you to a place you've never been before...once you got there Ricardo Villalobos takes over, and of course he already prepared a tasty 'Panpot Spliff' especially for you to land softly. ?also watch out for the forthcoming Superlongevity-mixed CD."

"Perlon's second artist album, brought to you by Pantytec, the band of the label's co-founder Zip and Sammy Dee, introduces their unique definition of cartoon house to shake the dancefloors wo. Available in 2 formats, the double vinyl comes with 8 ,while the CD offers 11 tunes. The recently released 12" entitled 'Elastobabe' was a nice foretaste of what to expect inside the Pony Slaystation. With the first track, Sammy and Zip take us on a 'micromission' (Dan Bell remix will follow) that leads us directly to a 'candy coated conspiracy' -- bon appetit! Pantytec 's incredible guitar talent can be proofed easily, listening to 'valentine', that is also available in a remix version by the mysterious 'Pokémonopa'. The album version of the pre-12" titletrack lost a few beats on it's way to the longplayer: pantytec's 'Elastobabe - Crackhouse dub', featuring Florian Schirmacher 'I' on vocals. He's also the one, who's forming a duet with Zip; while getting closer to 'Supratahiti'. Once there, sammy is already waiting inside the 'Quattroporte' to cruise the dancefloor Pantystyle in highest gear. The voice of NYC Diamond Girl Christine, with her definition of the beautiful colour 'Pink', marks the end of the vinyl, while the digital format offers 3 additional tracks from previously released 12"s."

"Morane, that's the new project of Markus Nikolai and Theo Krieger, a collaboration which already proved it's potential with '99 summer hit 'Bushes'(PERL10). A1 ('Think Away') and B2 ('Think On Air') sound like a cooperation of Prince and Kid Creole at their very best time (remember 'The Sex Of It'?). Energetic brass-sections, percussion and pitched vocals form a Latin-funk-monster that will heat up prime-time-dancefloors. B1 ('Think Dark') is a reduced, straight electronic mix including vocals that remind us of Yello's 'Oh Yeah'....dancefloormadness guarenteed!"

Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $9.00

Phil taught Matthew some jazz licks while Mr. Herbert introduced the world of electronics to Mr. Parnell. For Perlon #35 Phil Parnell mixes jazz elements with some quirky samplefunk to get 4 tracks, that fit perfectly in the labels catalogue. A glimpse of Liz Fletchers voice on 'Snap' makes this trip even more magic. A must for the friends of Dimbiman."

Title: Superlongevity 3
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PERL 036CD
2003 release, repressed. "The third part of the labels successful Superlongevity compilation (triple vinyl / no-mix CD) features 13 unreleased tunes by the usual suspects at which the spectrum of musical styles is as manifold than ever before. On a habitual high level the distinguished listener, clubber and dancer is taken on a journey through certain possibilities of current housemusic: Ricardo Villalobos opens with the relaxed, groovin' 'Alsbalduin' followed by the Dimbiman who introduces us to 'Papa Puffi's Secret'; dark but always ready to play. Dandy Jack continues spinning this psychothread using ingredients that remind us of his extremely twisted mid-90's masterpieces. A hip-hiccup is send from the gloomy depths of Pantytec's (Sammy Dee and Zip) 'stalactitecaveradiolab'. Next track is brought to us by Melchior Productions (Thomas Melchior) who offers a driving reinterpretation of 'Feel Sensual' (PERL15 / Perlondon). This time the notorious unexpected guest Akufen converts into Horror Inc. hosting his very personal, magical dreamworld. Our french companions Copacabannark (Cabanne and Ark) will then wake us with their cool sounding machinefunk. Manmadescience (Soulphiction plus friends) are yet furthering the tempo in the same frame of mind and take the shortcut directly into the legs. After a little rest with Stephan Laubner aka STL and his tropical minimal delirium you will find yourself on a weird safari through the steeldrumjungle of Narcotic Syntax. Following our Detroit Perlon-Newcomer Matthew Dear as Jabberjaw in an enquiring manner of 'Maybe This Ain't Right' and damn right it is. We could have stopped right here, but of course we have to spoil you with Markus Nikolai's engaging pop house track that will keep an ringing in your ears , unless you're resistant to Sense Club's magical percussive madness."

Catalog #: PERL 037EP
"Brought to you by Zuerich-based Sascha Winkler alias Kalabrese... After several records with the hip-hop-combo Sendak, his house debut Airolo was released in 2000 through the swiss-label Stattmusik. His style: relaxed, sexy, funky. Never before you could hear someone ordering #73 at the Chinese-delivery that passionate. Fragile voices versus massive bassmelodies. Funky guitars and precise sounds will make your ears groove under headphones. By the way, Kalabrese only sings because he didn't find a singer yet. We at Perlon hope, that he'll never find one."

Price: $9.00

"Minimal Man, the project of Eon (= Ian Loveday) and Baby Ford, are opening the chicken store for us.

They follow their inner impulse of lowering the club down to the boiling ground water of euphoria, at the same time placing the leveling rule higher. On the occasion the space that is created in between is filled up with thrilling, lascivious rhythms and sophisticated arrangements to get the crowd absorbed in a state of unconditional attention, hypnosis and urge for motion.

Catalog #: PERL 041EP
"After the strictly limited 10" we are happy to present the long awaited follow-up of Copacabannark. Once again the French producers Ark and Cabanne are shaking the dancefloor in their very unique style. Arrangements, that are precise and nervous at the same time, are layered over a blackmailed bassdrum, which seems to be an old french household remedy against lame legs. As a bonus, we are getting a 'senti-metal' remix of Chilean Dandy Jack."


Artist: VILLALOBOS, RICARDO
Title: The Au Harem D'Archimede
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PERL 043CD
"Archimedes' theorem defines the buoyant lift: Diving an object into a vessel full of water causes an increase of pressure inside the vessel. The displaced amount of water, i.e. the lifting force is equivalent to the object's body volume, i.e. its weight-force. Transferring this theorem to the music of the overwhelming parallel universe of Ricardo Villalobos' new triple EP/album length CD, one will realize the following: Diving all of its notes into reality results in the displacement of the same to a high degree, since the music has an enormous volume by expanding airily. Which means nothing but the musical principle of psychedelics taking effect here. This time by using the method of reduction, Ricardo is closer to the tradition of the cultured jam sessions by the legendary German 70es musicians' collective Ash Ra Tempel around Manuel Goettsching (known from his Prototech solo production 'E2-E4') than to the simply structured march through occasionally rather uninspired club metrics. Ricardo's percussive talent is undisputed: the sophisticatedly elastic rhythm meanders of Latin American/Caribbean origin sound as if they have been introduced to the wild from the base of a cool, impeccably clean laboratory which is located somewhere in the Science Fiction vastness of the Chilean Atacama desert. The loss of sense of time appears in favour of the event of intensity. Frequently the tracks appear surprisingly volatile, despite the considerable playing times of several titles which are absolutely required for exhausting the free, rhythmic modulations. One wishes them to last forever, like the whole production."

Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: CD
Price: $17.00
Catalog #: PERL 047CD
"Ark makes us happy again with his punkfunk. On album length he mixes weird stutterhouse patterns with hip hop grooves and funky vocals. For the latter he has invited two guests: On 'Sucubz' Xavier Vindard sounds even dirtier than James Brown. Then Jamie Lidell smoothly enlarges the chessboard to the previously unknown format 'r2d2'.

"Dandy Jack's long-awaited long-player. The Chilean, Swiss by choice (who is one part of Sieg über die Sonne, Carabina 3030, Gonzalo Martinez, Ric y Martin...), presents the result of two years of extended sound research. We are inconceivably happy that he does so on Perlon. Dandy Jack dedicates each of the seven (+1) tracks to one of his best friends and calls the album Los Siete Castigos (= the seven punishments). He handles his complex sound structures with inimitable nonchalant precision aiming on your brain and your feet. This album truly takes it to a higher level. Percussive, tricky, elegant."

The flipside offers 2 more experimental tracks ('Phraselab' & 'Last Wave'), that can be already heard in DJ-sets by Ricardo Villalobos and Luciano, who were lucky enough to get one of the 3 test-pressings."

"Catherine Britton aka Cassy entered the electronic music world in Vienna, as a vocalist for Elin aka Autorepeat. After her first DJ gigs in Vienna, Munich and further productions, she met Dave The Hustler in Geneva where they started working on a project for Mental Groove. Geneva was also where she met Luciano and co-produced 'La Ondita,' one of the album tracks on Lucien-N-Luciano's Blind Behaviour for Peacefrog and 'Alpine Rocket' together with Mathew Jonson for Perlon. In March 2003, Cassy moved to Berlin where she became involved in projects with artists such as Steve Bug and Ricardo Villalobos. On Ricardo's last album for Perlon, she co-produced 2 tracks. Perlon 52 marks her first ever solo release."

Title: Maybe Moriomelo
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 053EP
"Pantytec is the project of Sammy Dee and Zip, founded just shortly after the label's birth some years ago. Maybe Moriomelo is the first solo release after their debut full length album Pony Slaystation and the affiliated remix 12", that featured remixes by Dan Bell, Soul Capsule, Isolée and Copacabannark, back in 2002. In between Sammy and Zip built their reputation as the perfect live-show for the early morning hours and worked on remixes for artists like Robert Hood or Matthew Dear, to name a few. The A-side of the present 12", 'Maybe,' spotlights the pros and cons of non-sober trumpet playing, while the flipside introduces us to a more sophisticated place, entitled 'Moriomelo.'"

Title: Joker Family Park 2
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 2x12"
Price: $20.00
Catalog #: PERL 054EP
"Spending a lifetime at Joker Family Park is highly recommended!...And the grand-opening of 'Park Two' is getting closer. After being busy doing remixes for Alter Ego, Alex Smoke or MyMy, Matt John continues to guide us through his territory. Last years 'Park One' already caused some serious reaction all over the world. Now there's six new songs, waiting to be discovered on this double 12" package. The A-side 'Hawaii You' is co-produced by Ricardo Villalobos."

Title: Onandon
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $10.00
Catalog #: PERL 055EP
"Early Detroit sound aesthetics (like Eddie 'Flashin' Fowlkes' Techno Soul rather than Jeff Mills) loosely fit into a sweat resistant house corset. Consider this as our contribution to Sigmund Freud's 150th Birthday: pure and elegant dance hypnosis PLUS the sexiest saxophone your needle ever touched on a Perlon record."

Title: Superlongevity 4
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 2CD
Price: $21.00
Catalog #: PERL 056CD
"Way back is miles ahead! Here's a big chunk of what one should expect from a funky future, merging forward sound techniques with field-tested vibes from past, transfiguring musical eras. The Perlon visionary society is known and appreciated for representing the continuation of a propulsive groove development. Embedded in the stimulating context of forwardness and incalculability, the 16 new tracks on Superlongevity 4 once more mark the label's distinctive approach to sire a swarm of heralds who are going to effect a climate change above inventive ingenuity. A highlight for sure in this correlation is 'Morning Sir' by Baby Ford & Zip, shifting the ideals of Suicide (Alan Vega + Martin Rev) to unearthly binary dimensions of nonchalant coolness, closely followed by the growling Pantytec Funk incorporating stellar and gloomy soundscapes that seem to be flowed from the rivers of Ash Ra Tempel, and Luciano who is deliberately conducting the machines' own, funny internal dynamics tenderly rearing up. New Perlon crew member Stefan Goldmann points out where to start the long trip with a view to discreetly recolonise remote planetary sound systems having been explored by some Jazz-driven mothership or other, while Narcotic Syntax lay a spanking alien Electro egg into the Perlon nest, and the gently swinging Horror Inc. (aka Akufen) celebrates eternal propagation of splendid harmony. Just a few examples of how to raise the game in 16 ways." Artists: Pantytec, Melchior Productions Ltd., Baby Ford & Zip, Luciano, Dandy Jack and the Third Leg, Cabanne, Dimbiman, Stefan Goldmann, Soul Capsule, Soulphiction, Ricardo Villalobos, Narcotic Syntax, Markus Nikolai, Matt John, Kalabrese, Horror Inc.

massive 4LP version (2 was a double LP, 3 was a triple LP, so what do you expect?). Beautiful gatefold sleeve.

Title: The Early Tracks
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 057EP
"Long awaited 12" of Stephan Laubner, aka STL. Stephan not only delivers three tracks, but also two lockgrooves. We are very happy to present mister Laubner's first solo release on Perlon, as he is usually busy with his own imprint, Something Records."

Title: Different Places
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 058EP
"Grandmaster Thomas Melchior steps along in his lightfoot manner. Although with a somehow decent melancholic note, the two deep and reduced tracks should show a similar effect as the announcement 'we give away iPods for free on the dancefloor.' These tunes make us extremely curious about his new album, to be scheduled for a 2007 release on Perlon."


Artist: VILLALOBOS, RICARDO
Title: What's Wrong My Friends?
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 2x12"
Price: $20.00
Catalog #: PERL 059LP
"After Ricardo has being busy doing remixes for Depeche Mode and Beck lately, we are happy to release 4 brand new songs in the quite luxury format of 2x12"... yummy. 'What's Wrong My Friends?' is the general question asked in the opening -- and title track. We know everything is pretty alright.... especially when this brass section swings in. On the flipside 'Gugga Sempa' introduces the subflute, a rare instrument dated back to the bass-age. The second record of the doublepack holds a rough percussive monster entitled 'Africolaps,' as well as 'Dummolator,' an instant 14-minute hypnosis."


Artist: HALF HAWAII
Title: Into You/Out Of You
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 060EP
"If you order Half Hawaii, what you'll get is nothing less than Sammy Dee and Bruno Pronsato. Those two founded this project just right after mister Pronsato moved to Berlin earlier this year and this is their first plate. Sammy Dee, known as member of Pantytec and Perlon pal since the first years & Bruno Pronsato, producer of so many quality tunes on labels like Orac, Hello Repeat, Telegraph and many others are presenting 'Into You/Out Of You,' two songs that just give us an idea of the sexy, bass driven world they are coming from. Reduction at its best."

Title: The Riverbed/Morning Sir (Version)
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 061EP
"Baby Ford and Zip locked themselves in the studio after January's Get Perlonized party in Berlin and the result is this 12" with 2 very special tracks. The A-side, entitled 'The Riverbed' doesn't lack those subtle, humorous details that we already know from productions of this duo.The B-side offers a new, extended version of last year's contribution for the Superlongevity4 compilation entitled 'Morning Sir.'"


Artist: LUCIANO
Title: Fourges et Sabres
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $11.00
Catalog #: PERL 062EP
"Luciano back to front... and back on Perlon. It's a while ago since he released a 12" together with Mathew Jonson in 2003. The Swiss-Chilenian sunnyboy and boss of Cadenza Records delivers this 30 minute two-tracker and goes a little deeper again. The A-side 'Fourges Et Sabres' already gained attention in 2006, traveling on CDR around the world, as part of DJ sets of the usual suspects. On the flipside Luciano takes us 'Back To Front'... vocals included!'

Title: Don Juan/In The Spirit
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: 12"
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: PERL 065EP
"This 12" is a great foretaste of Thomas Melchior's album No Disco Future. Both tracks won't be available on this album. The A-side features a mesmerizing, deep and warm house tune of the kind you can't crop because it's getting better and better. Melodic, yet with a perfect sense of what to omit. On the flipside, Melchior takes it to a more abstract level keeping the groove clearly in mind. House music!"

Title: No Disco Future
Label: PERLON (GERMANY)
Format: CD
Price: $19.00
Catalog #: PERL 066CD
"Three years after his groundbreaking album The Meaning (Playhouse, 2004) Thomas Melchior presents his new longplayer No Disco Future. Skills and experiences Thomas gained throughout the years are innumerous. To mention just a few: along with Tim Hutton he formed the Duos Vulva and Yoni who were releasing on Aphex Twin's label Rephlex, on the U.S. label Reflective, and for German electronica pioneers, Source Records. With his mate Peter Ford, he forms the duos Sunpeople and Soul Capsule (and various others). The new album sounds less micro-house and more homogeneous. Slightly spherical soundscapes perfectly unite with discreet vocals building very harmonical structures."
