dj deep & traumer remixes

planet e are proud to present aw18 collection, a 3 track ep from british producer tom flynn. drawing upon a broad and learned musical understanding, aw18 collection fuses disparate strands from the worlds of fashion, club culture and sound design to forge a highly atmospheric, singular release. packard, the title of which is inspired by parties in the historic detroit power plant of the same name, establishes an unrelenting energy from the get go. a bouncing kick lays the foundations for rolling synths, unnerving vocal samples and delicate piano refrains to wander. anna is an indulgent nod to the catwalk, marching with intent amidst immersive chords and subtle melodies. the b side hosts a trippy cut full of interplanetary glitches and melancholic harmonies. drawing upon hints to the extraterrestrial, marx creates a dizzying swirl with glistening textures. carl craig was sold straight away: when tom sent me his demo of packard i knew i wanted to release it on planet e. the mix of looped electronics with soul of the piano brought me back to when i first heard the post-disco classic beyond the clouds. i can imagine the kids on the scene rockin hard to this.

detroit love are proud to present the inaugural release on their newly founded eponymous imprint – a collaborative venture from planet e and !k7 which aims to capture the essence of carl craig’s superb event series of the same name. detroit love mixed by stacey pullen is a sixteen track journey that exemplifies the diversity of the city, as well as the essence of the parties, championing both lesser known artists and familiar faces into a 74 minute mix.

a four track ep from slum village co-founder, former bling47 label boss and current head of the dirt tech reck label, waajeed. the detroit native has worked previously with theo parrish, mad mike banks and amp fiddler, and in 2017 held a residency at detroit love parties across the globe. ‘mother’, featuring detroit singer-songwriter steffanie christi an, is driven by an arpeggiated synth lead above shuffling percussion and heartfelt vocals, whilst ‘earth’, a collaboration with the enigmatic blaktony, takes a moodier turn with stripped back drums and syncopated keys. ‘obba’ rides a melodic bassline into the cosmos, whilst ‘frances’ offers a soothing dose of otherworldly disco funk. additional mixing on the ep was provided by planet e head carl craig

soundscapes key selling points the word icosahedrite refers to the geometric figure icosahedron, and arises from the idea that the ep is an amalgam of electronic music styles with many other aspects of traditional musical genres, like jazz or blues. metaphorically, those genres act as the multiple sides of an imaginary icosahedron. something complex yet solid that sits outside of the conventional emerges as the final result.

“god loves detroit” is terrence parker’s new album due for release june 30th on planet e communications (detroit). this new album features tp collaborations with coco street, and additional projects with merachka (who co-produced, co-wrote, and sings on the first single entitled “don’t waste another minute” which also features a remix by london’s as i am) released in february 2016.

carl craig needs no introduction, he has been at the forefront of the international techno scene for over 20 years and has amassed a truly enviable back catalog of releases utilizing various pseudonyms and collaborating with many different artists during his stellar career. one of the detroit natives most enduring and popular guises has been his paperclip people project which has been active since 1991. country boy goes dub was originally released in 1996 on the seminal paperclip people long-player the secret tapes of dr.eich. its blend of samples, metallic drum machines, 808s, guitar loops and serious dubwise tendencies made it stand out instantly. as with a lot of craigs legendary productions it had that otherworldly swing, an incessant groove and a melding of various styles, sounds and influences informing its spirit.

for best friends and long time collaborators matt edwards (aka radio slave) and thomas gandey (aka cagedbaby and producer). matom began as a one off project to create an hour of music to celebrate the iconic hansa recording studios in berlin, a space thats seen everyone from david bowie and iggy pop to tangerine dream and brian eno. says edwards the initial music was loosely based around the recording of david bowies ‘low and the works of iggy pop and i wanted to create these soundscapes that would allow thomas to improvise and we managed to come up with seven songs in two days.

some records are birthed through countless months or even years of studio hard yaka, drafts, followed by re-drafts, an eternal process of searching for that money shot musical moment. then there are albums that simply pour out of the collective minds of its creators more of a stream of consciousness and musical expressions that strategic beat creation

direct from detroit, life on the back 9 is inspirational house music down to its soul. from the energetic yet soulful opening track finally (baby be mine), released on planet-e in 2013, to the melodious, groovy basslines, piano riffs and high synths of night light, to the forward pushing, make you dance saved forever, to the bumpin god he is, to the funky tech instrumental spiritual warfare, to the grooved out melodic the friend i lost to hiding in your love - all about getting lost in dancing to the music (dancing is a form of worship), to the pause and reflect selah interlude to my virtuous woman

in 2011 carl craigs planet-e imprint turns 20. to celebrate, as well as a world-wide label tour starting in march 2011, craig is releasing a best of planet-e compilation – entitled 20 f@#&ing years - we aint dead yet (released vinyl in june), and releasing a monthly remix release from the planet-e back catalogue, where friends of the label choose their favourite planet-e release and add their take on it.

so … the story goes something like this: being inspired one day by 69 >desire<, vince decided to create an interpretation of it using his own unique sound. the track was done very quickly as a gimmick to send to carl craig as a mark of respect for his own track, now the track has been signed by carl for planet e and the world will now hear that very 12 minute piano and string filled beatless gimmick that is proving to be vinces most musical piece to date. its epic stuff. flipmode with >qualia< which takes off where vinces fcom material left off. deep driving hypnotic dancefloor material with an orchestra thrown in for good measure.

dimitri kneppers (1967) music career reads like an encyclopedia. a house encyclopedia. after 23 years of spinning records you could call this dj a true veteran. known for his enormous sensitivity, true feeling and mixing skills he gives you the sense you are the voyeur of an intimate act between two lovers. the music and the man. but nobody ever felt and looked so comfortable behind the decks as dj dimitri, for he brings the crowd at ease like don juan would do with women. when ecstasy is no longer just a word, but a true magical moment as the crowd, the surroundings and the music all come together in one hypnotizing state of happiness. this man knows -or should we say feels- what he is doing, not only behind the decks but also when producing. in september 2007 dimitri said goodbye to his headphones to work on a farm with mentally handicapped people. fortunately for his fans the break wasnt premanent in the middle of last year he installed a studio in his home, then this past june he returned to the decks - now he makes his planet e debut with a stunning track already tearing up dancefloors. included is the first of two remixes by carl craig. a second ep with remixes by orlando voorn and carl craig will appear in early 2011

psycatron are made up of bbc radio dj and producer paul hamill and superproducer dee lievense who has worked for every label under the sun from nrk to plastic city. last year proved to be a calendar full of landmarks as they pushed to the next level with a string of high profile productions being released on some of the world s most respected labels. in addition receiving well deserved props from some of the biggest names in the business. right now we bring you yet another pumping and jumping hit from the amazing irish duo, song titled... she is music. it was destiny for this release to be presented to you by detroit based label planet e. during production of she is music, psycatron had been on the look out for a great vocalist to work with. it just so happens while flicking through their record collection when as if on accidental purpose a dog-eared 12 inch of visions of you appeared and the penny dropped. right there it was evident that blake baxter is the one. blake is respected as genuine firstwave motor city. its an honor to have him on this record.

after appearing on the excellent tama sumo panomrama bar mix cd this detroit band project makes their debut on planet e with this nice melodic yet ruff house/ techno hybrid.

the detroit duo known as reference focuses on the soul of electronic music, not the hype, staying true while working to promote the expression of underground music and dance culture. luke hess is a name synonymous with a new wave of detroit techno producers, but his roots go deeper than that. his continued dedication to musicianship and his natural talent as a dj have allowed him to release music on some of the most respected labels in the genre, and play some of the most prestigious clubs in the world. brian kage is the founder of the record label beretta music. along with a countless number of successful releases, brian s experience as a producer, dj, and label head has helped catapult the careers of some of today s brightest and best artists in the dance music community.

catcalling from the depths of a city seen from the outside as crumbling, sonic grooves carve a path to the soulful detroit duo known simply as the oliverwho factory. first noticed across the primitive music sharing plateaus of a decade past, the oliverwho factory quickly gained notoriety overseas with a glasgow based distribution, and a keen sense of product importance, releasing rich, mood-driven tracks on vinyl, inspired by and resonating the roots of rock, pop, jazz, and r&b. earth near-silently stumbles with the distinct yet mysterious, funk laden blend of house and techno that oliverwho and shonie c. so naturally provide. like stepping into dreamscapes of unknown desire, the obscure flavor of owf s tunes keeps unconventional beauty and otherworldly adventure at the forefront of this duo s detroit-based soundboard.

encer kincy was giant in chicagos house music revival - part of the second wave of younger djs and producers that took the music of the early 1980s, rubbed it up and dropped it in places like 500 west cermak, medusa’s and the vault. a lot of people who are now superstars of the scene - mark farina, sneak, derrick carter, and dozens of others - were a part of that movement, too. spencer released a number of tracks on relief, planet e, cajual, peace frog - labels representing the classics of that era - and he usually recorded under the name gemini. as a dj, he operated in his own space - i’m sure he could play for a room, and sometimes did, but the unrestrained madness of a spencer kincy dj set had to be heard over several hours to appreciate. he could blend a sleazy disco track into hard acid, downtempo into a punishing armani track, jazz into detroit techno and so on. it wasn’t technically brilliant or tricky, but the selection was exquisite. a number of figures from his era still list him as an influence. his productions, viewed as a whole, are so much like his sets: going softer than many dared to go, and going much harder than just about any dared to go. simple jack tracks! respected by the standards of the industry of the time, and you certainly couldn’t go anywhere in chicago without hearing derrick, sneak, mark, lego, gene, jevon, diz, johnny or the other djs beating them. and so many of them have a timelessness - a little piece of eternity stuck like some bit of wax between the grooves

ultraphat deep and hypnotic tech groover !!!

2009 has seen a slew of new detroit producers in what is turning out to be a stunning year of activity for the citys dance music. as the area experiences another test of its collective mettle, these musicians have emerged with some fresh insights. its detroits new wave, and its happening at a time when everyone wants to know whats really going on in the 313. as always planet e is on this wave with monty luke. following up releases on claude von strokes mothership music label, luke transplanted from california to detroit, shunning grace for grit and delivers his first offering for planet e, >art, love & war.< the labels first release since the 69 box set, >art, love & war< matches deep, stark piano stabs with sharp expansive drum hits, its upfront, its beat-driven, its for the dancefloor. the fantastic carl craig remix on the flip throws jagged edges of the original around in unexpected ways, its the first c2 remix on planet e since his epic remake of martin buttrichs >stoned autopilot<

limited to 500 boxset from planet e... get one while you can!!
