A game-changing collection of uplifting cinematic soundscapes, dark jazz fuelled breaks and hard hitting hip-hop beats featuring guest rap legends QNC, AG and YZ. The album went on to shift well over 100,000 physical units and is now seen as a ground-breaking, genre defining UK classic. Two decades on from it’s initial release Cold Water Music sounds as fresh, as inventive and as necessary as it ever did. “Cold Water Music remains a touchstone in UK dance music… grittily urban and ineffably bucolic” – Sunday Times “A dusty, crackly slice of heavily-blunted downbeat magic.” – Thump “Classic… as likely to be heard in a bar in Ibiza as a club in Manhattan.” – Mixmag “Gorgeous… lush… Aim’s time is here.” – Record Collector “You’ll be astounded all over again.” – BBC Tracklisting: Intro Cold Water Music The Force Sail Downstate Ain't Got Time to Waste Fat City Interlude True to Hip-Hop Demonique A Tree a Rock and a Cloud Journey to the End of the Night From Here to Fame *From Here to Fame (Aim Remix)*Digital & Cassette Formats ONLY - [My Determined Heart](https://aticrecords.com/product/my-determined-heart/) - Niko wrote this love song for herself after being inspired during a transformational course called BS to Bliss. It's a song about self love, acceptance, and belief in yourself, it's about limitlessness and joy. If you want to feel wrapped in a love filled bliss have a listen to this beautiful song. My Determined Heart - [Aim - Hinterland (Remastered)](https://aticrecords.com/product/aim-hinterland-remastered/) - “Enchanting.” The Guardian “An impossibly good sophomore effort.” Drowned in Sound “You’ll be astounded all over again.” BBC In 1999 Aim changed the game with debut album Cold Water Music. Timeless and genre defining, Cold Water Music crossed musical boundaries, inspired countless producers and 125,000+ physical copies and millions of streams later sounds as fresh and as relevant today as it ever did. In 2002 Aim achieved the seemingly impossible with his critically acclaimed follow up Hinterland. At once a continuation and development of his trademark sound, Hinterland proved the notoriously difficult second album could not only equal its predecessor but surpass it. Featuring intricate instrumentals and inspired guest spots from the likes of Diamond D (‘The Omen’), Souls of Mischief (‘No Restriction’) and Stephen Jones (’Good Disease’), Hinterland is an understated masterpiece that seamlessly combines crisp hip-hop beats (‘Linctus’, ‘From A Seaside Town’) and up- tempo grooves (’Guimar’, Vipco’) with Aim’s bucolic aesthetic and ever-present sense of blissful melancholy. Over twenty years on from its original release ATIC Records is thrilled to present the definitive Hinterland vinyl reissue. Fully remastered from the original DAT master tapes with all-new artwork, Aim explains why it’s taken so long; “I’ve wanted to re- release Hinterland on vinyl for years but it’s only now that the time felt right. I found the perfect new cover image and, amazingly, the long-lost instrumental of ‘A Twilight Zone’ turned up in a dusty attic corner. I was never comfortable with my singing on this track and replacing the vocal version with the instrumental makes Hinterland the record I always thought it should be. I think it’s my best album and it’s exciting to get it out there again for fans that have hounded us for a fresh vinyl release for years and for new ears yet to discover it.” Hinterland Remastered. Some things are worth waiting for. Forlorn (Intro) The Girl Who Fell Through The Ice feat. Kate Rogers What Do People Do All Day No Restriction feat.

Souls of Mischief](https://aticrecords.com/product/aim-no-restriction-remix-feat-souls-of-mischief/) - To celebrate the digital release of Hinterland (Remastered) Aim has reworked album stand-out No Restriction. Featuring west coast rap legends Souls of Mischief Aim’s remix sees the jazzy original transformed into an epic, synth soaked banger that propels the already incredible vocals into the stratosphere! Aim recalls watching Souls of Mischief at work, “they came to the studio in Manchester for the afternoon and I played them a few beats I had ready for the session. They picked the one they liked, got their pads and pens out and within a few hours they’d written the track, gone into the booth and recorded it in one take. I was blown away.” No Restriction (Remix) - [Niko's Classic Vinyl Selection](https://aticrecords.com/product/nikos-classic-vinyl-selection/) - A fine selection of rare vinyl from Niko’s Grand Central days including ‘Sound Off!’, her first ever 12″ release produced by Riton (of ‘Rinse & Repeat’ fame), her second 12″ ‘You’re My Favourite Music’ featuring remixes from Only Child (of Manchester’s legendary Unabombers) and The Nudge (aka Ill Bosco/Crowhead/Red Laser Records CEO), and ultra limited stock of the original pressing of her classic debut album ‘Life On Earth’.

Musical pioneers Aim & Mikey D.O.N. join forces as MAIDM and ATIC Records proudly presents the first fruits of this miraculous merger. Served on tasty 10” grape juice vinyl, MAIDM's opening statement boasts two hard hitting hip-hop home-runs, Tun Up Di Heat (Party Banger) and B-Boy Shit. Tun Up Di Heat (Party Banger) is an earth-quaking, bass-speaker-shaking introduction to how nice they are. A beatific blend of head down hip hop and funky, floor-filling accessibility, Tun Up… embodies MAIDM and it's precision manifesto. Flip to the flip side for second track B-Boy Shit, a track that eschews concession to commerce and takes no prisoners through minimalistic murk and hyper-aggressive vocals. Long forgotten legends are name-checked, old scores are settled, the dirty break-beat rolls on and hip-hop gains a fresh new anthem. "MAIDM (aka Aim and Mikey D.O.N.) drop an absolute monster. Classic status is assured... the dopest Brit-hop banger since Roots Manuva's Witness." - monkeyboxing.com "The most thundering, explosive and exciting songs we've heard in a long time!" - sunburnsout.com "It’s been too long since we’ve heard this calibre of in-your-face UK hip hop... already proving itself as a jump up live anthem" - groovement.co.uk Tracklisting Side A: Tun Up Di Heat (Party Banger) Side B: B-Boy Shit Tun Up Di Heat (Party Banger) B-Boy Shit - [How It All Got Started - Curt Cazal Remix EP](https://aticrecords.com/product/how-it-all-got-started-curt-cazal-remix-ep/) - Following 2015's album of the year The Habit of a Lifetime (And How To Kick It), ATIC Records is proud to present the next instalment in the AIM & QNC saga.

Grand Puba & Sean Price Lyrical Expert - [Niko - Electric Union](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-electric-union/) - Niko’s Electric Union is a late-night, electra-sonic long player. The all new third album from the Seattle born singer sees her pursuing a more focussed dance lounge sound where delicate melodies and accomplished song writing marry with tuff, unpolished beats, gritty synth bass and layers of abstract keyboards. Drawing from a pot of jazz, soul, underground house, breakbeat and electro pop, a lot of ground is covered by Electric Union’s nine songs with Niko lamenting a love lost in ‘You Used To Have Her’ over a heavy rave breakbeat before getting all Sade on the album’s title track. The only cover on the album is Niko’s lush take on the previously unreleased ‘I Love TV’ whose writers include Alex Miller of The Upper Room and Neil Barnes of Leftfield. Electric Union was produced and mixed by Aim (Cold Water Music, Hinterland) at his own Speed Limit facility where he also made the brews and chipped in a bit here and there with song writing. 'With Electric Union we go from Ulysses to Alice in Wonderland... A dazzling drug... the best dance music album of the last twenty years' – Sun Burns Out 'The feel good factor is off the scale, so much fun, it’s a sweet slice of escapism that gives you a yearning to get to the nearest dancefloor and lose yourself' – Backseat Mafia 'An enhanced listening experience in combination with enigmatic sounds that can transport you back in time…get blown away by Niko’s timeless style of electronic music woven upon abstract Pop sensibilities' – Electro Wow 'An electronic alliance that explores the deepest paths of psychedelia and the most intense rhythms...This work sounds like the complexity of the mind and the spirit of the author... masterfully alternating each genre and leaving the labyrinth knowing that...the journey has been worth it.' - Como Las Grecas “To feel the Electric Union is feel the sparks of love, it may be a groove you are unfamiliar with, but it soon becomes hardwired into the system, and one to which Niko is a modern classic conductor.” - Liverpool sound & Vision "Electric Union certainly brings a lot to the table, with a track to suit all manner of moods. Whether you feel like chilling out with something in the background or ramping up the energy and getting ready for a night out, this record is guaranteed to please.” - Vinyl Chapters Tracklisting Side A If I Could Be Your Love The Palace Discotheque Someone To Lean On I Love TV Side B Don’t Call On Me You Used To Have Her Electric Union Those From The Heavens Come Saturn - [ATIC Stadium T-shirt](https://aticrecords.com/product/atic-stadium-t-shirt/) - We've got your back... and your front!

Introducing the all-new ATIC Records ‘California’ tee in sunrise yellow with lava red label logo print. - [Niko - You Used To Have Her](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-you-used-to-have-her/) - With its driving breakbeat, fuzz bass and synth rave bleeps, first single ‘You Used to Have Her’ might take those familiar with Niko’s previous work a little by surprise. On closer inspection however, all of the Seattle born singer’s trademark traits are present and correct – beautifully crafted vocal melodies, complex backing vocal harmonies, a classic pop sensibility and relatable lyrics which despite their, at times dark, subject matter, always exude an infectious ‘joie de vivre’. Produced by Aim (Cold water Music, Hinterland) and recorded at his own Speed Limit Studios ‘You Used to Have Her’ gave the Barrow-in-Furness based beat-smith a chance to tap into his love of old school 90’s breakbeat. “When Niko gave me the demo I was buzzing! Most of my work is chilled and somewhat restrained so this track gave me a chance to take the silencer off. That said, a common thread running through Niko’s work is the strength of her song-writing regardless of how it might end up production-wise and You Used to Have Her is no exception.” 'A vibrant electronic festival track!' - THE GUARDIAN 'Cool vibe and production' - DJ MAG 'The vocals are quite incredible! They have a superbly unique grace that makes them feel different, rich and with lots of depth.' - AFFINITY ASCENSION 'With an 80s sensibility embodied in industrial synths, alongside a strident backbeat, fuzzy bass...Niko manages to all at the same time channel Debbie Harry, Kate Bush, Lene Lovich, and we’re loving it'. - ESSENTIALLY POP 'Unabashed sunshine pop... a bleepy breakbeat banger' - GROOVEMENT 'This is such a cool sound. I would love to hear this in a club, on a large sound system. It's great!'- ALT77 'The vocal melody and percussion are on point' - PODCART 'It sparkles, it swirls and it enchants' - SUN BURNS OUT 'You Used To Have Her' offers a fresh pop-tinged DnB sound, the vocal is super stylish and soulful, it mingles Well with the blend of enigmatic and uplifting melodic arrangements...solid sound design...the hook is also very catchy.' - EKM.CO 'Catchy D&B/breakbeat/indietronic vibes, love the sound qualit' - BANGER SOUND 'Beautiful work on the vocals of this track ' - PITCHFORK 'Cool track, really nice vocals' - PLASTIC MAG You Used To Have Her - [Niko - Hate & Love - Vinyl](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-hate-love-double-vinyl/) - Niko's stunning second album Hate & Love Produced by Niko and Aim (Cold Water Music, Hinterland, Flight 602) the album covers a broad stylistic range moving effortlessly from minimal and cinematic through head-nodding hip-hop beats to electric boogie and early house. The Ringmaster Review - "stunning...glorious...dazzling...magical..." Fame Magazine - "An impressive and intense album… a joyous discovery" Music Muso - "Each track evokes it's own sense of wonder… a gorgeous mix of pop, electronica and haunting melodies" Glasswerk - "Lush ethereal music that eases the senses like a lullaby" Tracklisting: The Blight of Old You're So Boring A Life in Dreams Hate & Love I Can't Get Enough of You So Famous Tiger Balm The Daddy Remix Arigato Mr. Roboto Over You - [Niko - The Palace Discotheque](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-the-palace-discotheque/) - “Playing shows and clubbing in New York was an experience but It was often the journey home where things got really interesting. The streets and trains had an electric energy but it could also feel edgy at times, you had to be on your toes.” Niko The Palace Discotheque is the second single from Niko’s forthcoming new album Electric Union. Upping the tempo and getting all ‘electronic’ the track is built on a foundation of pulsing bass and Linn Drum-ish beats with layers of intricate micro melodies and synthetic vocals. Produced by and written with long-time partner in crime Aim (Cold Water Music, Hinterland) The Palace Discotheque has echoes of early Tubeway Army, a perennial influence on the Barrow-based beat maker that combine with Niko’s abstract pop sensibilities to create a heady, neon cocktail.

Contains Aim's 'Smile', 'El Ruedo' by Gripper, the gorgeous 'Womb' by Niko and Paperboy's haunting acoustic track ,'Bigfoot'. Housed in super thick card ATIC Records house bag limited to only 300 copies. "Well we all know who AIM is, or should do anyway ! This sampler is to showcase his new project and label 'ATIC'. Packed with 4 tracks covering all sorts of vibes this may well be the hottest label kick start out of Manchester for a while. Andy 'Aim' Turner has certainly been busy behinds the scene since releasing his last album in 2002 and now with the launch of the new label, they'll be no avoiding him purely because the tracks on this sampler are very infectious and will be heard for a while to come. To pinpoint a stand out track is rather difficult too, as all 4 are wicked ranging from downtempo lush to funky glory." - DJ Magazine Tracklisting: Aim - Smile Gripper - El Ruedo Niko - Womb Paperboy - Bigfoot - [The Witch and the Robot - Hetero](https://aticrecords.com/product/the-witch-and-the-robot-hetero/) - Hot on the heels of their critically acclaimed debut LP ‘On Safari’, comes TWATr’s first single - brand new track ‘Hetero’, backed with album and live favourite ‘Giant’s Graves’. Here’s TWATr's Sam (aka Venice) to explain what ‘Hetero’ is on about; "In 1518, Frau Troffea began to dance fervently in a street in Strasbourg. This lasted somewhere between four to six days. Within a week, 34 others had joined, and within a month, there were around 400 dancers. Most of these people eventually died from heart attack, stroke, or exhaustion... In Ambleside there is a late night disco called Sportsmans Inn, every small town has one, the type of nightclub where big men stare at women while listening to Vega Bus or Dario G, totally Hetero..." But that's not all. That other nicely good band of Cumbrian instrumentists (British Sea Power) are friends and fans of The Witch And The Robot and for this release, BSP’s Martin Noble provides a stunning, apocolyptic re-working of 'Hetero' which we can't get enough of. Massive. Tracklisting: Error occurred when trying to fetch the file using wp_safe_remote_get(). A valid URL was not provided.

Blending dark psychedelia, folk, shanties and spoken word, these Lake District dwellers prove that the darkest music often comes from the prettiest places. The Lakes have long inspired poets, painters and romantics but The Witch And The Robot have filtered that inspiration into something dark, intense and meat-strewn.

Seriously, SOOO good!” Drowned In Sound "genuinely great" 7/10 NME "delightfully authentic-sounding retro psychedelic folk" The Telegraph Tracklisting: Giants Graves The Beatification of St Thomas Aquinas Raptures of the Deep The Best Free Show on Earth A Crocodile Song Smiert Spionem No Flies on Me Ballad Sex Music Beef on Wax The Puppeteer De-Nihilism You Already Know All There is to Know About Time Travel Just Look at the Stars - [Niko - You're So Boring](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-youre-so-boring/) - The second single from Niko's upcoming new album is out now!

Music Muso - 'Do yourself a favour and give her a listen, your ears will thank you for it' AAA Music - '...A catchy song with a strong female attitude and an interesting message about modern life. Certainly worth three minutes of your time, a lot better than what you hear in the charts...' 4/5 Glasswerk National - 'From the very first play I was hooked into the song...The sparkling chorus, a blend of glamorous indie and directed vitriol certainly has all the workings of a fine-crafted earworm, that is likely to nestle in your consciousness and have you humming for days...'

First single 'The Daddy Remix' is a golden-era flavoured, jazz flecked bounce-athon featuring long time label mates, Aim collaborators and hip-hop pioneers QNC aka Q- Ball & Curt Cazal. Taking the vocal from the original, slept-on version by Gripper (A Life Of Consummate Ease 2006), Aim felt there was unfinished business and the two spent a long night last year digging through jazz crates to create a radically reworked BANGER. Aim took it back to the lab to produce and mix and Niko shot off to NYC where she hooked up with upcoming director Brian Quist to shoot a promo video in and around a gloriously sunny New York City. It had to be the first single. A statement of intent and a sure sign that Niko is the one to watch... '...the new Niko album which is said to be based on a blue print everything ATIC records stand for – if this track is anything to go by it will be a blinder.' - Reckless Times 'it is a solid head-nodder, and I like it' -Glasswerk National 'Exelent! 5/5 Huge tune...like real hip hop never went away, catchy as **** ' - Pumaking "The perfect prelude to Niko’s new album" - Fame Magazine Tracklisting: The Daddy Remix The Daddy Remix Instrumental - [Niko - Life on Earth](https://aticrecords.com/product/niko-life-on-earth/) - Niko's debut album 'Life on Earth' has been out of print and un-available to download for years. Due to popular demand this album, originally released in 2004, is now re-released digitally on ATIC. "Life on Earth is... a debut of delicious self-assurance, with beats that sashay from slouchy electro to brassy, soulful funk and hip hop. By turns ballsy, elegant and utterly intoxicating, a record to grab you by the collar and shove you onto the dance floor" - Q "Niko.. NY found protege, a singer- and, boy can she sing... production from friends and family like Aim, Mar Rae and Mr Scruff...Some fancy beats and that voice (complete with that range) hold it all together rather beautifully" - City Life "There's a unifying charisma to Niko's songwriting and deadpan delivery...Life on Earth sings in the universal language of brill pop music" - NME "Niko's debut is a highly original take on modern soul, showcasing her big versatile voice over equally round grooves" - Flux Tracklisting: You're My Favourite Music Shifting Swamp Don't Waste Your Time Roam All I Do An Echo of Quiet and Green Let Me Go The Hourly Second Life on Earth Siren Love You to Pieces - [DOTN - Redux](https://aticrecords.com/product/dotn-0-rexux/) - 2008's eponymous debut album by Death of the Neighbourhood was a 32 track epic with a sonic span ranging from the most delicate to the most horrifyingly disturbed and distorted. It was a TRIP and a critically acclaimed work of art, but we always felt there was a more 'traditional' album in there somewhere, an album with a natural arc that could be consumed in one glorious sitting… So we took the sweetest tracks from the first Death of the Neighbourhood album, blended them with a selection of spine-tingling new material and created DOTN REDUX. This isn't a compilation or re-release, it's a fully re-imagined album in and of itself, where old tracks sound fresh and new tracks feel like old friends.

Joining him for the hook is Niko, her trademark layered harmonies adding to the feeling of distance. Track 2, ‘Tackle Lad’, belies Crowhead’s love of old school hardcore. It’s a non-LP exclusive that’s guaranteed to lift any dance-floor with it’s combination of massive synth bass lines and heavy break-beats. Last but not least, and another track exclusive to this EP is ‘Broken Unit’, a progressive hip-hop instrumental that bubbles and builds towards a shimmering acoustic guitar climax.
