when casting a weary eye towards the impending chill of winter, its important to remember that the choice of company kept can greatly affect the way in which one wiles away the long gray hours. in this case, we didnt even need to look further than our own backyard. enter deep techno masons, donor/truss. made up of greg schappert of brooklyn and tom russell of wales, their collective efforts have seeped into the consciousness of world class djs, producers and fans of uncompromising techno music through releases on synewave, miniscule, dilek, and dumb unit. with this, their first ep on thema, they have begun expanding their signature sound. the heady claustrophobia we’ve come to know and love has opened up just enough, spurring a graceful and startling evolution. we also would like to say that we re very happy that themas first release for the year 2010 is, in part, from local nyc based talent. mr schappert has been a big supporter of this label for quite sometime and to have him and tom step onboard is just about the best way we can think of to start the new year. the future is here, welcome 2010!

second part of the much talked-about universal consciousness series. on one side, stephen brown, the artist responsible for some of the best releases on derrick mays transmat label, makes his 2010 comeback with an uncompromising and stunningly beautiful piece of detroit techno. on the flipside, club lonely, a these days in-house production moniker for jam sessions that happened in the labels studio between friends, presents a tribute to n.y club shelter. the track focuses on a bassline driven groove in timmy regisford fashion while on the b2 the vocals are muted for those who would like to use the track as a tool. space techno meets n.y dancers. universal consciousness

music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. the air in the performance is sculpted into something. - frank zappa. first before we start talking about our first release in our new serie called sculptures we would like to say to you what is it all about. sculptures is a special 5 part serie symbolicaly representing 5 years of existence of jesus loved you label that is coming up this year. it will be consisted of 5 different releases with a new fresh approach to music that will our label represent, with a warmer twist shaking grooves. basically how we would say, tracks that we heard and love to have them on vinyl.

der zweite part des jonzon comebacks in 2010 und dafür einfach hier nicht mehr und nicht weniger als die blanke, ungenierte dokumentation des einschlägigen berlin techno, wie man ihn bereits mitte der 90-er jahre nicht besser hätte erhalten können. die tracks wie >make up< und >see the light< erreichen dabei auf diesem streng auf 300 copies limitierten vinyl mühelos den reifegrad eines abgeklärten alterswerks, in dem die kühle technoide klangarchitektur mit vielen impressionistischen soundskizzen angereichert wird und die am ende dennoch aus dem off jede menge schwingungen und techno-funk auf den boden bringt, der anschaulich, als ganz grosser wurf aus dem nowhere auf einmal wieder ganz dicke prognosen für die zukunft von jonzon, und nicht nur diesem, verspricht. man darf hier jetzt schon gespannt sein, wie die jonzon-story weitergeht. the only way is up!

their debut perc trax release opens up with noson, a track which perfectly demostrates their sound, with tough but clear 909 drums underpinning a dubbed-out industrial soundscape that continually evolves as the track runs its course. on the flipside comes the 2-part indifference. part 1 featuring intense echoing synth stabs over clipped drums whilst part 2 goes deeper, but still with enough muscle to work in the sets of most djs. watch out for donor / truss remix of forward strategy group, coming up on perc trax in early 2010.

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

the tripping a-side >marangai waikawa< leads into archaic vaults - a dark spatial pattern of droning synth atmospheres all maintained at a decisively bass oriented centre. a ceremonial dance, refined with self-played kanjira percussion. mysterious choirs invoke a rainfall of tribal metal percussion.
out of the dust of >marangai waikawa< grows >scud< on the flip. part two of a thrilling journey, pulsing straight forward with pushing noise elements, astute shuffly percussion combined with scattered vocals >changes are gradual<.

right on the heels of our previous bass/electro smasher, we hit you with the most anticipated house/disco record of recent times. helsinki 78-82 is a project by top billin team members flipper & koobra, whove always been active and always been down to bring something new to the label. while flipper is part of the top billin dj team and has always been the most high-flying of us, so no wonder the the new 12inch is some musical bliss thatll leave you feeling that good good. this is what we call big city house music, when youre cruising the streets at night with the top down - no words needed. in a manner michael mann would be proud of. so lifelike is a sort of remake of lifelikes great so electric (under permission), although this time it comes with vocals from our great helsinki new wave partners villa nah. if you are in need of a new end-nighter, this is it. cruising is a tune full of that pumping big city feel with driving drums and great synth work that will get them ladies on the floor and will fit into those funky house / modern disco sets. we even have a video for it, but its a different kind of cruising than you think (no al pacino)…

2002 classic!

2009 was a great year for these days records, and 2010 promises to be even better. the platform stood out for its innovative yet functional club sound and unique artwork concepts. the new year begins with a new split series under the name universal consciousness, based on the idea of connection between all things, and that all things have been coordinated, and they combine to make up the same universe. the first part is dedicated to two very different takes on spiritual, cosmic space techno. on the a-side argys >sometimes im blind< generates a long and uplifting emotional climax, which features a solo that will forever stay in your heart. the track was recorded at the end of 2008, and despite numerous offers to release the record elsewhere, nothing was finalised and the recording never saw the light of day. soon after the birth of his own label, it naturally fit the platform and seemed a perfect way to start the new year. on the flip side, sheffield born alexander ross, brings forth a cavernous techno piece awash with reverberation and spacial echos that brings a driving yet non the less emotionally captivating moment perfectly in balance with the depth of the a-side.

today, one of the labels most successful releases, the >on the bus< ep gets the most complete of reworkings. the eps original tracks, lawlers own >hocus pocus<, audioflys >shazam< and tiefschwarzs >voodoo< were all conceived whilst traveling across the united states as part of a viva tour. born in studio that was housed in their tour bus, each track was then completed by each artist on their return home. after the huge response to the original release, lawler now delivers 3 brand new remix eps.

third part of this very limited installment by jeff mills, released in 2002.

the title track, lost in shibuya, is perhaps our favorite track from the album. its a very evocative track, a 7 minute journey that revolves around a killer bassline, that captures the trancey techno vibe that made some of the most glorious moments of nineties techno. on the flip side, we asked one of our favorite producers to deliver a remix. his name is quarion and as part of drumpoet community, he is responsible for some of the best deep house sounds of the past years, and is one of the leaders of the neo deep house movement. quarion blessed us with a tribute to mood ii swing that is his dub infected killer usuki shinrin mix.

part three of the cocoon 10inch series is all about the modern british techno scene, and the first hypnotic exclamation mark is set by yousef from liverpool. after collaborations with carl cox and x-press 2, >come home< - which can also be found on sven väths current ibiza review >the sound of the tenth season< - seems to become one of the most important tracks of the winter season 2009/2010: with a steadily rising crescendo, yousef is weaving around a >strings-meet-piano< motive with massive reverb that gives the tribal beats a deeper meaning and thus will be enchanting the clubs. the flip side belongs to london-based dj and producer tim green. he is releasing on labels such as four twenty, sci+tec and trapez for more than three years now and his co-production with emerson todd, >exercise<, even made it to cocoon compilation i. >lone time< lives on metal-like percussions that are loaded with adrenaline and once more prove the fact that modern techno cant go without tribal elements

circus company welcomes a new artist on the label: the homewreckers. named after a track by southern soul legend sam dees, the production collective from germany has been moving and breaking new ground between detroit techno, abstract funk and melancholic disco music since 1995. their debut album amercian ruhr has been released on unique records in 2008 and creates an absolutely distinctive sound which seems to come straight out of a from a feverish dream populated by the ghostlike figures of larry graham, juan atkins, frank hutter, bernard edwards, erik b or al green. the not my business ep perfectly shows how the homewreckers flow on these two original tracks. you feel the funk, you feel detroit and you feel a deep and unique sense of music. cherry on the cake, you got a remix from san francisco based artist dave aju who is back on the label after his much acclaimed album open wide released in 2008. not my business isnt their first shoot on the label as they were already part of last months snuggle & slap circus company compilation with a brilliant live-version of chicago urban blues.

upon yous first release of black gold in 2010 is a compilation shared by the cheapers, mathias mesteno, channel x and onno. the cheapers have given us a track that is slightly more technoide than what we have become used to, with an absolute bass beast called madame sans merci on a1. mr. mesteno has given us the second part of tante dunkel (once again paying homage to one of copenhagens most illustrious night creatures) with this house track. the first part was released on our last home sweet home compilation. after flipping the vinyl, b1 unveils channel xs last offering before releasing their debut album on stil vor talent”in the beginning of 2010, making us all the more pleased about this dependable club track. b2 is reserved for our dutch colleague onnos kicking tech house track that shows that upon you know how to start out the new year in the right way
