it took a while but we finally got this great remix ep together from catz n dogz escape from zoo album. tanner ross flexes his e-funk biceps and shows us that just a little bit goes a long way with huge bass and sparse vox. this remix goes against the grain the right way, showing restraint and power at the same time. the main man of detroit, carl craig also delivers a sparse and beautiful mix, 1st giving us a lesson in how to properly tweak the space echo and then bringing it back with classic strings and subs. both mixes are getting major support from all across the globe from sebo k to troy pierce to ewan pearson to martyn to l-vis 1990 to james zabiela - overall probably the best feedback we had in a while on a record to be honest.. all great for our kids at the detroit youth foundation where the mothership label donates 100% of profits! also, special thanks to matt colton at air studios, london for donating a mastering session for free to cut this record and support our school.

das label polynom entstand in weimar und verliebte sich in dichters sein.die erste veröffentlichung richtet sich an die klassiker. wie sonst auch ist das erste release eines labels geprägt vom entstehungsprozess. auf einem weg durch berge und täler des kreativen schaffens erscheint unter dem namen look for the sin das erstlingswerk undbeinhaltet zwei stücke, die für bescheidene glücksgefühle bestimmt sind. tief klingende, funktionale bässe und zurückhaltende flächen werden durch das mastering von dubplates perfekt ausbalanciert. den remix steuerte thomas stieler bei und legt seiner veröffentlichung auf legotek nun aufpolynom nach. seine interpretation ist sommerlich knackig und lädt zur gediegenen after- hour ein. wieder tritt form und funktion in ein symbiotisches verhältnis und glänzt durch die leichtigkeit des arrangements.

the ever evolving ever inspiring argentinean turned berliner musical talent that we call out nico purman, once again honors the house of vakant with his latest disco inspired offering to the gods entitled visions ep. in such a short period of time nico has come so far both physically and meta-musically. within just a few releases one can easily hear him developing, maturing, and mastering his chosen art medium. from the mechanical tech funk of his tuesday ep (va017) and euphrasia ep (va025), to the space jazz masterpiece that was rhapsodies (va032), his first step toward disco was in fact with his contribution >xpress yourself< to the family values compilation (va034). with visions ep, once again nico effortlessly transgresses whatever style he wishes and makes it his own. taking a few pages from the book of disco as well as a touch of chicago and a pinch of early new york house, nico both tips his hat to those influences as well as taking things several steps further to create something completely original.

first on decks .de !!! sa007 sees perc and modern heads create the first collaborations between these two core stroboscopic artefacts artists. the result is a punishing hybrid of percs dubstep tendencies and modern heads cutting techno. a-side >mendax< is cavernous. built upon solid dub foundations, it spills over into grinding, metallic territory. if the titles to be believed it takes inspiration from the shady world of lies and deceit. the atmosphere seems to agree, theres certainly something mendacious at work here. b1 takes the eps atmosphere and adds abrasion. in >percdax< cold, hard percussion is layered over a bed of warm dub. closer >moddax< errs on the eerie. it skulks, is full of sticky bleeps and the result is unnervingly dubbed out. all three track titles share the same suffix and if this indicates that they also share one quality its that theyre best heard in the glinting shadows of a club just before day break. sa007 was craftily mastered by artefacts mastering, berlin.

new years deal - out of south london, el prevost comes correct with the money honey ep. funky, dirty, shiny. more of the new house sound of london. four tracks ranging from dirty deeo and grooving house tracks to peak time power tools. a new talent on third ear from their own hood with some killer peak time tracks that are mastered by stefan betke @ scape mastering.

nice price deal !!! prinzhorn dance school announce their return with new single – >seed, crop, harvest.< we havent heard a thing from tobin prinz and suzi horn for three years (their debut lp was released on dfa back in 2007) but theyve been far from work-shy. they toured extensively, then came home and built their own bespoke recording studio (the red shed) – and learned how to use it. time consuming endeavors which saw them drop off the music radar. which might just explain the title of the equally charged b-side >off the radar, off the system<. in their own words: >weve been busy. just not busy making records. you have to live too. you can only write so many songs about motorway service stations and airports<. they recorded and mixed both songs themselves in the red shed, with bob weston taking on mastering duties. …prinzhorn dance school are back! and dfa could not be more proud

after leaving behind the somalian pirates, geiom is cruising the sunny waters of the indian ocean when he picks up a distress signal on his scanner. he follows the signal until he locates a tiny remote island and a guy called bowly, who said that he was on his way from france to the new world, but got totally lost. judging by the age of the map he was using its easy to see how. bowly spent his time on the island hanging out with the locals who amuse themselves by creating a unique style of music on some amazing handcrafted instruments. geiom helps bowly get on his way again, and leaves him with a more useful map. some months later, bowly beams over his music as a gift from his new found homeland in canada ? the tracks are like some strange mutation of those distant tropical players and the uk-based pirate radio transmissions that bowly has been tuning into ? geiom loves the result and decides to send them straight over to transition in london for mastering and release on berkane sol. this 12 has been getting played by selectors like ? subswara crew nyc (soul motive), brackles (rinsefm), grevious angel (soul jazz), martin kemp (blunted robots), cooly g (hyperdub), shortstuff (ramp), spamchop (wigflex), oneman (rinsefm)?

vinyl only! drei farben house macht den aufschlag für tenderpark 001. wer bei den strings auf off white an mark kinchen denkt, liegt sicher nicht ganz falsch. ansonsten regiert eine formale strenge mit dezidiert angeschlagenen chords, die ihre wurzeln im house dennoch jederzeit fühlbar machen. petit standard ist wunderbar fuffiger, aber dennoch knackiger house, für den unser mastering engineer helmut erler den begriff soul-house angebracht fand. wir würden ihm da keinesfalls widersprechen. ein gelungener auftakt für tenderpark

secret weapon of djs like ricardo villalobos, raresh, rhadoo and pedro from the ar:pi:ar crew, robert dietz, sascha dive ,.. some tracks are bigger than others – resulting of that perception we decided to bring some renewals for our sublabel superiéur and repositioned it as platform for reissues and unreleased treasures from the 90ies. first reissue will be the frankfurt early morning classic >sunrising< by mark ambrose & alexander purkart pres. bellringers, originally released on force inc. us in 1998. besides a new mastering of the original dat tape, we couldnt resist to include two amazing edits of the original. responsible for the reworks are our polish homies mike p and katowice academy of jazz graduate kacper bogacz, better known as pol_on, as well as finnish super house producer roberto rodriguez

first at decks.de!!! 11_inch is the project of hannover-based producers and djs ralf eckert, ron paul and christian weiland, working and being creative in the basement of time tools mastering studios. this is the perfect surrounding for a session with singer and songwriter jesse lee davis. you can hear the result on this classic disco- like slowgroover >can you feel it<. dubbymans (deep explorer) version keeps it very much organic with a great piano pattern and laidback moods on the chords while jesse lee croons about losing minds on the dancefloor. venedikt reyf, better known as suedmilch, puts the focus on the groove without losing the vibe of the original. the pitched down vox sounds just perfect to it. hypnotizing!

cave paintings is a new imprint dedicated to rough as you like machine music that lives somewhere in techno, house and ebm territory. all the tracks are done live in one take on old analogue boxes for a loose, organic and spontaneous feel that its impossible to capture when using computers. for the same kind of reason these are only available on 12. the mastering and the vinyl itself are an integral part of the sound. on this first release side x is a ten minute straight-up bass-heavy skeletal club groove with hints of a latin vibe about it and side y is more grinding and pounding in a nitzer ebb on quaaludes fashion, relentlessly developing for a full fourteen minutes

limited vinyl sampler, all tracks taken from the forthcoming full length album >choice<, out on eat concrete records summer 2010.
aardvarck returns with this excellent selection of raw, deep and ultra heavy dub. minimal yet very effective plus massive bass on all cuts. featuring words by gaslamp killer, mastering by sandor caron.

chris is very happy that his long term friend adam beyer from sweden, who runs the drumcode and truesoul labels (as most of you may know), has contribute to the 10 year anniversary label compilation. chris said >he managed to give me an amazing track that i have already been playing up and down since probably the beginning of last summer<. you have to know that most of these tracks have been collected over a period of at least the last six months. this one from adam is called >antistius< not only is chris out for having international artists on this compilation but also his home base in frankfurt equally has some amazing artists to offer. this track on the b-side is by clr artist and mastering engineer brian sanhaji who has also recently released his album on the label. his contribution to 10 years of clr is pretty phat. this one is called >higgs< and chris had already been playing it, all over the place, with amazing responses.

martin h or martin halinowski to his mates with a rare vinyl release on his invent label, mastering by thomas krome

vinyl only release, limited to 500 handnumbered copies!... anlaog raw tech to house tracks always a pleasure to listen .. thats underground live recorded tracks this is a very special release as all the process of manufacturing/mastering/cut of the vinyl has never passed through computer ! like the early years...vinyl was cut directly from the source: so you have a 100% full analogue sound !!!

long awaited lp debut from this oklahoma group, who recorded these tracks back in the 80s, but for whatever reason most of them never got released. especially check out the instrumental from >whos girl are you?< an incredible synth/disco track! a very good job has been done on the mastering, considering these tracks were mastered from an old cassette tape!tip!

in 2010 desolat continues its one year old x series with m.in: >sing and blow at the same time<. m.in is an young artist from frankfurt area developing his individual music taste by being open-minded towards other genres. his interpretation of house / tech-house is spiced up with jazz, soul and afrobeat elements in order to present a varied and sophisticated blend to his audience and led to numerous well received solo releases and remixes for radio slave and italoboyz amongst others. m.ins house and his versatile beat programming caught our attention a long time ago - and the title track here simply seemed to be tailor-made for loco dice and his sets. >sing and blow at the same time< was probably one of the best kept secrets since last summer and now it’s time to reveal it. this new desolat x will be the first in the series to be available as a digital file as well. its coloured vinyl, with artwork by florian pohl and mastering by enrico mercaldi, will remain a collectors item - great sounding and good looking.

first release of gießen based dontstop label. on the a side you can find a stormy deepish techno tune by veteran johannes volk, while the other side features flickering house music by newcomer mirko hecktor. heavy club cut by dublates and mastering

one-sided 12inch limited to 500 copies, mastered by dubplates and mastering, night jewel has been brewing in andy stotts laboratory for the last year, a real peak-time killer. info: >night jewel< is the first one-sided twelve on modern love for over a year and is andy stotts biggest club track since the release of his overnight sellout >hostile< 12 inch back in 2009. revolving around reverberating chords reminiscent of move d at his deadliest, its a track that just builds into a heaving mass of feelgood vibes, honed and primed for the floor.

low-end blessed, heavyweight dub techno piece from the top drawer of a rather well known, but perhaps deliberately shy producer. hand stamped and individually sealed in a simple yet rather beautiful fashion, this is arresting steppers business, no doubt. the cut, performed with all the soul and depth you expect from dubplates & mastering, is super loud and as heavy as required for all man-sized playing out needs. observed through the vapour trails of the downbeat side to basic channel, the advanced sound system research of chain reaction and echospaces afterswell - consider this as something of a two-movement love letter to august berlin rhythm chambers - heavily aromatic, opiated but still trudging rhythm and grace - enveloping bass, heady atmosphere, excellent

dan quin has spent the last 10 years of his life mapping & mastering the animal & natural world of his promised land, the bottom of the earth, the south pole, antarctica, >the end of the world<ùand apparently producing some of the newest in dark analog driven techno & house. determined to create what he called >an artistic testament to the great antarctic expanse,< quin employed the recordings on his 1st 12 inch release, the haunting and epic >at the end of the world.< we can only hope he continues to labor away in his igloo of inspiration, hearing further calls of primitive encouragement and continuing his crusade to bring the beautiful silence of the arctic to our warm & ready earlobes.

this will be a big one in both techno and disco circles... do not sleep!
subdance is proud to announce their debut ep by the italian techno music legend lory d! last year we already heard some brand new things from lory, when, after 6 years without any new releases, he published two new twelve inches on the scottish label wireblock. æplisskenÆ on subdance is another stroke of genius from the roman as he comes up with two more classic examples of his unmistakable trademark sound, sombre and enigmatic, disturbing and fascinating, euphoric and energetic, powerful and direct! the a sideÆs æbank robberyÆ is a fresh interpretation of the track of the same name from john carpenter s æescape from new yorkÆ soundtrack. lory musically transports carpenterÆs apocalyptic visions of the last days into the new millennium. the brooding bass line and haunting atmospheres push the listener to an otherworldly dimension. this is loryÆs own masterpieceà lory d in technicolor and cinemascope! the b sideÆs ædisso bassÆ aims for the dance floors immediately. a perfect techno-electro track where exploding synthesizer cascades meet fragile melodies and archetypal lory d bass lines, each with a mind of their own. redshape, another techno music legend, is responsible for the mastering of both tracks. amazing stuff!

as costello continues to look long, the grooves continue to flow. lng3 sees the reissue of the deep house classic pleite which originally appeared on trapez in 2003. recorded in dublin in 2002, this version has been mastered at dubplates and mastering, berlin in 2009. the results are stunning and serve as a welcome reminder of costelloÆs deep roots. pleite (costello dub) in particular could teach some of todayÆs hyperactive producers a thing or two about setting up a solid groove and letting it sit. the timing of this reissue could not be more perfect with regard to the current musical zeitgeist. the title, a german colloquialism for broke or indeed bankrupt which was an in-joke at the time of the original release, takes on a new significance in the context of global economic recession.

limited white label edition, licensed from life line records japan... 2009 mastercut at dubplates and mastering, helmut erler...
