after his ace remix for nicolas jaar s >space is only noise< here on circus company, our man dave aju is back with an appropriate dose of in-between original music for the fall season. taken from his upcoming album project that uses vintage inherited recordings as sound sources, >all together now< is a beautifully unique track that is guaranteed to move people with its irresistible groove. indeed, the aptly titled jam brings together and bridges gaps of various kinds, from lo-fi and hi-fi to under water and outer space, with classic-flavored dynamic percussive elements, spiraling futuristic leads, and melodic synth work sprinkled with aju s distinctive voice, encouraging us to join in on the live collective claps that accent the cut. the building bass pulses and warm instrumentation stack up toward the ceiling, until a fresh breakdown spreads things out to release the pressure. amsterdam don san proper brings an equally unique and refreshing remix to the table, with a rugged take on the track complete with cool guitar licks, modular effects, and contrasting additional vocal stylings. similarly dynamic in the drum workout department but with an extra rawness, it is a fantastic complement to the original that rounds out the release perfectly.

chicagos ricardo miranda makes his debut for the ace stilove4music label, maintaining a fine year in which he has already dropped some serious heat on rush hour sub-label hour house is your rush and his own noble square imprint. title track >102point7< is all jagged synths, throbbing arpeggios, slashing claps and a rolling acid groove, marking it out as one of his most incendiary productions to date. on the flip >rotary cells< is deeper still, a 909-led jacker with undulating layers of sub bass augmented by a wonderfully woozy vocal which extols the virtues of true chicago house. this is followed by >greenline<, a stripped back jam with scuttling hats and the kind of paranoid synth melody that wouldnt sound out of place in jeff mills something in the sky series. this is dark, raw, pulsating dance music - highly recommended.

the uncanny valley-quartet is rounded up by the ace of spades. before starting to release its first artist-eps, the compilation-series is rounded up for now with the roughest ep so far. sneakers you think you think! takes no prisoners and comes with a dark bass line you cant really resist. the track is a musclebound monster and includes claps that are out of control and freaked out vocals by sneaker himself. no less rough is cvbox machinematch, even if its acid-thunderstorm builds up far more subtly. finally, plätschern by stefan lohse takes us on a 100-bpm-journey straight into analogue wonderland..

exploited serve an ace from consistent, a group of well known producers working under the cloak of anonymity. previously having released on frontroom and boe with remixes for tartelet and man recordings, consistents track >feeling high< dices vocals and disco vibes into a house heavyweight something like hot city meets soundhack, coming with certified anthem status. get involved for the polished berlin-meets-chicago modernism thatll get you sweaty as a taxi drivers neck in july. its difficult to say whether this is tech house or deep house, strictly speaking, but either way the title track bumps. it funks and, although were told it comes from berlin, its damned chicago. this is the 2nd single from consistent (remember aint no bump?) on exploited. early support by kink (rush hour), optimo (jd twitch), laurent garnier (f-com), dj t (get physical), dj hell (gigolo), erol alkan (phantasy), brodinski (turbo), feadz (ed banger), round table knights (made to play), ian pooley robert dietz (cecille), till von sein (suol), adam port (liebe*detail), lee jones (watergate), stuffa (trunkfunk), mosca (nightslugs), lazer sword (stonesthrow/numbers), pezzner (freerange/om), acidpauli (console/notwist), jamie anderson (artform)
