Running Back proudly presents
Mim Suleiman
. The Zanzibar-born and Sheffield-based singer/songwriter/performer made quite a name for herself on the Afro-beat stages of this world with her mixture of East African vocals and percussive traditions.
Tungi
is Mim Suleiman's debut full-length, which has her singing and writing in her native tongue, Swahili.
Tungi
is a mixture of all things ultramodern Afro beat, rhythm trax and futuristic pop music. Starting off with the uplifting vibe and beat of "Hebu," you will find boogie moments like "Nyuli" or "Bibi Na Mpu" (including a dub version) along the way, as well as quieter moments, like rhythmic adventures called "Flava" or the hi-life guitars of "Mingi" and "Haraka Haileti Baraka." Music for the world, led by the powerhouse that is Mim Suleiman and her lyrics about love and affection, freedom, oppression, unity and everyday life. Mesmerizing and addictive. Produced by
Maurice Fulton

RB 001EP
2011 repress of Running Back's first release, originally released in 2002. This is what it said back in 2002: "The latest jam from
Thorsten Scheu
aka
Glance
and
Jimmie Wilson
follows the vibe of classic, timeless house music -- three mixes that span a wide range. The A-side features the gospel and organ-driven 'original' mix whereas the dope dub pays dues to Jamaican craftsmanship." This is what it says now: "U.S. garage-influenced house with that special hump. Check the contemplative '
Black Keys
Rework' (not
the
> Black Keys) or the "Original Dub" for less vocal power."

This is the magnificent debut album by
Phillip Lauer
on Running Back. Frankfurt's melody man has amassed a body of work that includes the adventures of
Arto Mwambe
, top singles on his extinct Brontosaurus label for Permanent Vacation or Live At Robert Johnson as well as remixes for the likes of
Maxmillion Dunbar
or with the
Tuff City Kids
project. The 12 songs that make up
Phillips
have been described as
808 State
kissing Movin Records while
Cluster
are in the room -- or a Dolby NR tempest. Whatever you want to call it, it has all the ingredients and romantic notions that can make dance music oscillate between the sacred and the profane: house, gloomy Gothic grooves, cock-eyed electro, new wave trance and lots of songs without words. The power of Lauer.

Price:

Catalog #:
RB 005CD
Square
is the follow-up to
Redshape
's album debut
The Dance Paradox
(DSR 080CD/LP), that is if you don't want to count the double impact 12"
Red Pack
as an album. And indeed, it is an album in the truest sense of the term. Pamphlets, theories and opinions about the dubious role of "the album" in techno are dime a dozen, i.e. squaring the circle, but the man with the mask makes an effort to prove all of them wrong.
Square
doesn't care for styles, genres or expectations; it can hold its own. Spread across 12 tracks you are as likely to meet vintage Redshape on tracks like "It's in the Rain" or "The Playground (Square Version)" as you will encounter new facets of him with the Hyperdub-affiliated
Space Ape
featuring "Until We Burn" and "Moods and Mice" or with a cluster of ambient pieces ("Orange Clouds," "Landing," Departing"). Working its way through all these states and moments on and off the dancefloor, through melancholy and industrial romanticism alike,
Square
leaves you with the feeling of having experienced an electronic music album with identity that trusts in itself and wants you to trust in it. No matter if your perspective comes from a classic album like
Kenny Larkin
's
Metaphor
(R&S, 1995) or is informed by the recent retro futuristic developments in the United Kingdom, if techno means more than a desperately compressed kick drum to you, Redshape with all his idiosyncrasy finds his way into your heart.

Originally released on Chain Reaction in 1996,
Pelon
's "No Stunts" harks back to a time when "dub techno" was still waiting to be found. With addictive, echoed synth sounds connected to a strong bass line, it is exactly that type of no-frills techno you just cannot stop listening to.

Catalog #:
RB 014EP
"Ain't no stopping us now. Even if you might feel that the release pressure is on, we just cannot help to put out these gems (at least, we think that's what they are). What you hold in your hands (or on your laptop) is neo-house of the finest order. Rhein-Main kid Robert Dietz (Cécille, Be Chosen etc.) was so kind to share his definition of h-muzik with us. To put it in a nutshell: 'Forward Snipping' slices and cuts some nice vocal bits in a true ear candy way. Even my brother gets goose bumps. 'Witness' sounds like a lost K.O.T. track. 'Faber Mix' is a disc jockey tool that brings you from A to B or even Z. And please, always keep Paul 'Trouble' Anderson in mind: A house is where you live in and a garage is where you park your car. Loop d' Loop!"

Catalog #:
RB 015EP
Last limited repress of 300 units in the original cover. Rooted in New York's sweaty boogie dreams and with a soft spot for dazzling house music,
In The End
stays true to
Tensnake
's juicy techniques. The title track concisely defines the dilemma of lovers: in the end, someone always has to cry. "Holding Back My Love" is a slow-motion disco robot bomb with Tensnake on the mic. "TheThenUnknown" melts the moodiness of early Factory records with the atmosphere of
Kenneth Dixon Jr.
's "Misled."

Label:

Format:

Price:
$13.00
Catalog #:
RB 017EP
"New kid on the block Jacob Korn (Dresden, Germany y'all!) convinced sometime somewhere in Toronto with a hearty live set that took a route over hip hop, down tempo house and all kinds of funkiness until it peaked with the disco-house-craze 'I Like The Sun (But not on LEDs).' Much to the delight of a present Running Back A&R. Hands were shook and it took only 2 and a half years until the test pressing arrived. Supplemented with the slow burning 'Selene' that really gets you the second time around, prevents the typical mistakes current deep house likes to make (at least, we think so) and is the sun god's sister, the A-side is good to go. Flip the script to see Prins Thomas in a good temper, rolling out the red carpet with one of his tried and tested remixes. 'I Like The Sun' piles up to 13 minutes of true Diskomiks glory including drums that go on forever (bonus beats, y'all!) and some eye-cue-markers for those of you who are deaf already. Well, swell!"

Catalog #:
RB 025EP
Mark E
complements the Running Back label again with some original productions. Starting out with "Nobody Else," Mark puts love on top of love. Unfortunately for you -- and good for us -- you have to fetch a second copy to go back and forth with the weighty bonus beats. Flip side: "The Wolf" is a murky trip into classic cavernous house music with a bottom-heavy ruffneck sound and an attention-drawing siren.

Label:
RUNNING BACK (GERMANY)
Format:
12"
Price:
$12.00
Catalog #:
RB 026EP
Roman Flügel
pursues his more contemplative side under his
Roman IV
moniker. "La Paloma" is exactly that kind of perpetual and lulling marathon jam that recollects his
Testament
tracks. Having said that, "Sa Caleta" looks for a more immediate hit. With a rigid punch and some greasy layers, you get Roman's take on the current or recurrent slow-motion disco craze. Finally, "Lucy" rolls over again, starts where "La Paloma" ended and makes its way up to a subliminal hook-line.

RB 030EP
The man with the mask shouldn't need an introduction:
Redshape
's ability to maneuver between true school techno, malicious house, breakbeat bombs and Motor City romanticism is ornamented with his very own mark. For Running Back, he delivers something like a summation of his work. "On Da Floor" is subterranean haunted house with a broken heart, while "Goom" features a take-your-shirt-off Reese-bass-line. If you like it dry, the "Bonus Beatz" of "Goom" will satisfy your needs. Bass drum jungle music.

Tensnake
is the host of
Phillip Lauer
's debut album inauguration party. Delivering not one but two remixes and a barrel of laughs, Hamburg's happy man smears thick red lipstick on Lauer's bittersweet "Trainman" symphony. His "Franceman Mix" does exactly what it says -- a long intro gets rouléd up into a fierce dancing school contest. The "Tranceman Mix" goes the whole nine yards: marimba magic, hard-trance breaks, drum rolls and early-morning glory moments. It's impossible to defang that snake.

The elusive

"Paper Tears" is some serious Vatican house and the deepest track that the Paradise Loft never played. Coveted with the devoutness that is the "Tribal Tears Dub" and a new wave whip subtitled "Same Victories, Same Mistakes," there is a prayer here for every matter. Comes in limited super sleeves and unlimited niceness.

Lauer himself turns in the hidden album track "Boringtone," his very own secret ode to the Café del Mar, and the super-exclusive "Highdimes."

"Nofretete" opens this reign of spellbinding tracks with hints of acid house, paradisiac breakdowns and finally, heavenly salvation. "Ninja Restaurant" and "In the Jungle" are its tougher siblings between metaphysical rave signals and Windy City rhythm box kung-fu plus hidden locked grooves. Hypno house for the young and the young at heart.

Trans-dance from the Norwegian chief inspector with greatysh hypnotism, properysh beats and a lovelysh Terjerine dream to round it all off. Vinyl contains some hidden tracks and extra elements. Cannot stop listening to it.

is a rather special project. Firmly rooted in American electronic music traditions,
Mike Taylor
's records on Love What You Feel or Construction Paper roam the grey area between Chicago's jack urgency, Detroit's funky machine soul and the raw magic of vintage drum machines. His style is natural, murky, filthy and raw to the core. This six track EP is an exercise in grinding beats, squelching acid lines, graceful pianos and heartfelt rhythms without any paralyzing retro romance.

Mike Taylor
aka
Disco Nihilist
's second EP for Running Back turns the curveball of the first into a wild pitch (if baseball metaphors are your thing). The rare cheerfulness of "House Rent Boogie" is backed up with a classic RZ-1 beat symphony that is aptly-titled "Beatdown Drums," while the flip presents the masked mania of "Film Grain" and some grumpy grittiness with "Operator Select." Mastered and cut in the USA by legendary engineer
Mark Richardson
at Prairie Cat.

. That's what you all have been waiting for: a record with nothing but sound tools. It pretty much does what it says: sirens, wind, water, ambience, and kids on LSD hysterically laughing. Isn't that great? Speaking of those laughing kids, that's what caught the label's attention during a warm and cozy

Kristian
. Blessed with an original copy of this record released via Kobe's honorable Strada Records store, an email attempt in purchasing a copy ended up in a re-issue agreement, as the initial run of approximately 300 copies was long lost and gone. On top of it, Kristian lost his in one of those nasty "airport baggage clerks DJ robbery" incidents. You can use it for intros, outros, mixes, tricks and the like. Plus:
