June 10 — KUDU returns with BACK FOR MORE: A remix collection out today!!

Back for More follows the Brooklyn-based trio’s acclaimed 2006 full-length Death of the Party; and much like its deliciously retro-modern, genre-hopping predecessor, the remix collection seamlessly navigates through a gritty urbana bursting with heavy neon-daubed grooves that meld dark melodic synth-pop and thunderous electro-punk with deviant future disco and gloriously twisted cabaret to create the ideal soundtrack for electronic-pop music lovers and dancefloor junkies. Carefully compiled by KUDU with the help of Petrit Pula and Craig Roseberry, Back for More is a well-crafted hybrid of adventurous reworks of stand-out selections from Death of the Party alongside new and previously released tracks, rarities and explosive remixes by Sinden, Drop the Lime, MKL, Hess is More, Tommie Sunshine and many more... Also check out www.rcrdlbl.com for exclusive free downloads from the remix collection

Forro in the Dark Dia de Roda EP / Out May 2008

Dia de Roda showcases what's important to Forro in the Dark's magic: laughs, good times, and, as always, the party. Sexy, laugh-out-loud, FITD's unique hybrid jam is a trademark blend of country soul and urban funk. Whether singing about Rastafarianism, Robin Hood, or the Roda, in English or in Portuguese, they charge every note with a palpable energy that needs no translation. Their forrÛ-inspired beats conjure a sonic atmosphere that draws today's jazz aficionados and techno-loving clubgoers onto the dancefloor together."

Digital and vinyl release. Vinyl will be available soon and it includes bonus remix by Quantic!

3 Na Massa self-titled debut album / April 2008

3 Na Massa is a new project cooked up by by producer Rica Amabis of the S“o Paulo-based collective Instituto and bassist Dengue and drummer Pupillo of the seminal Pernambuco rock band NaÁ“o Zumbi. Conceived as a kind of soundtrack to the erotic comic book frames of Italian artist Milo Manara, the musicians intended to penetrate the female universe by writing songs in the feminine voice as Chico Buarque is known to do. The menís imaginations were fueled by womenís intimate, uncensored conversations about their amorous experiences ----- moments of seduction, moments of desire, moments that marked their lives.

Some of Brazilís best-known singers and actresses including CÈU, Nina Miranda (Smoke City), Thalma de Freitas (Orquestra Imperial), Karine Carvalho (soap opera star), Nina Becker and Alice Braga (ìCity of Godî, "Blindness") were recruited to create vocal characters for each the albumís thirteen tracks.

Love Trio feat. U-Roy The Dark Mixes / April 2008

Despite the unmistakable vocal presence of pioneering reggae deejay U-Roy, Love Trio is not a reggae band. And despite this albumís appearance at first glance, it is not a remix album. The Dark Mixes, is a heavier, deeper mix of the album that came before. Itís an album for a later night. And though thereís a strong reggae influence in the music Love Trio makes, they are much much more. They are true musical globalists. Their sound is an inclusive hybrid of the electronic, jazz and dub worlds, with a generous assortment of other influences creeping in at the edges.

The Dark Mixes gives their previous effort a more textured vibe and provides a darker backdrop for the multitude of influences that define each selection. Itís a taste of the late night Nublu sound, and itís a deep, soulful vibe.

Digital only, vinyl available soon get it on iTunes
