Sub Club cognoscenti certainly don't need an introduction to Michael Mayer, when the internationally acclaimed DJ returns to Glasgow's much-famed party institution on Saturday, November 30th. Still, the nice interview the Sub crew did with Michael should prove to be an interesting read for fans and noobs alike, as Kompakt's diamond geezer gives a first résumé of the label's anniversary year and talks shop about some of his favorite tunes. Read it here and don't forget to check out the upcoming event here.

Directed by acclaimed Russian artist and TED fellow Uldus Bakhtiozina, the third video for Popnoname's recently released "50°" album (after "Flame Of The Pilots" and "Meteor") has reached our shores and just like its source song "Anna", it's a dreamy, beautifully fragile affair. Uldus also lent her voice to the track (for the spoken word bits, obviously), so one could say that this one goes full circle quite nicely. "50°" is both available as standard CD or as very special art edition - pick your fix!   |

Pop Ambient stalwart and Oktaf labelhead Marsen Jules is set to release his new album "Beautyfear" via his own imprint in January, delivering what may be considered one of his most outstanding full-length offerings so far. It has been mastered by none other than legendary 12K head honcho Taylor Deupree and comes with a cover picture taken by the highly acclaimed NYC photographer Erik Madigan Heck. All twelve tracks on "Beautyfear" were created during a week stay in a theatre workspace on one of the hills of Lisbon, a great starting point into 2014 which will also see a cooperation with Swedish filmmaker Anders Weberg and an upcoming release of Marsen Jules' works from a residence at the legendary GRM studios in Paris. Also, there's gonna be a new Pop Ambient compilation shaping up to be one of the most satisfying instalments in the series, and Marsen Jules is guaranteed to be found on the tracklist. Listen to a preview of "Beautyfear" here!
