Coqueto Records introduces the third edition of the Various Artists series.This compilation is made up of Rambal Cochet, well known as Volta Cab; Acid Charlie, with an excerpt from his latest live set ; Brian Topham, member of SIKU SERIES and known as PapoliusJones and; Rufo, also part of SIKU SERIES and curator and one of the heads of Coqueto Records.

Originally released in 95’ via CD on the seminal U.S ambient label, Silent, Numinous Island is the result of live jam sessions between Yokota and Castle. Several original tracks were recorded to DAT tape and then mixed to create a long form audio travelogue to an otherworldly destination. The result is something similar to the KLF’s Chill Out paired with Yokota’s unmistakable sound palette and Castle’s gift for storytelling.The vinyl edition has been faithfully edited by David Fogarty for uninterrupted hi–fidelity vinyl playback, maintaining the original track sequencing and energy of the CD version.

The latest Mahogani Music by the legendary Andres aka Dj Dez. Moodymann’s Mahogani Music might be one of the most influential labels for us, so we couldn’t be happier to see new music coming out just before the end of year. V, a true follow-up to previous records on Mahogani: going back to the sampler and flipping in all different styles. Pushing it with new dance tracks but also reflecting back to his Slum Village-era. A broad oversight of what musics are going on for Andres! Cuts on here for whatever mood you’re into.

The CPU of René Leynaud Street in Lyon has prompted us to bring out Dj Iguane, a protagonist of the first Paris raves. Author of an anthem on Chronobrain 016 and a solid catalog on Hokus Pokus, Passe-Muraille, Toolbox…The art of a sound played at various speeds and cultured by a vibe close to the essence of the tribe. He'll guide this compilation with two tracks released in 1998 (Free Sex) and 2011 (Booboo Trakkv), cerebral productions from his punk machines.It was in the same street, over a glass of wine, that 0-Confidence made the connection with CJACT's unstructured metallic blast.He plunges his table-mates Brainbeats and pastresdrole into the intoxication of synthesizers.One comeback hides another with Smogo, present on CJACT002, who doesn't neglect his acceleration so as not to lose control of this bewitched street.SPLT is the key to slipping into a bass-infused “traboule” and slowing down the pace. The concert can begin.

Dance Generation from the prolific Parisian producer Vitess again affirms his place in leading France’s underground clubbing scene, and beyond. Four electronic tracks are entailed in this EP, spotlighting his distinctive twist on homogenising groovy synths and percussive layers.
