a ton of steel and pipes used as instruments? à driving steel beats, accompanied by synthesizer sounds and experimental industrial samples create the sound of pale musics premiere release >phsychomania<. for sure this record, presented by matt eno and steve morell, head of pale music, is no easy listening. five bands / projects come together on this sampler, all of them top name current level of electronic and industrial music. from time to time the music appears to be dark and eerie. guest vocalists include luna di morph and rosa lee riza.

yes, the moment you are waiting for is upon us! disco terminateur is the eagerly awaited new ep of this summer.

the new series for raw no-nonsens techno and house tracks. some straight up techno... some edgy, exciting and fresh, sometimes just plain functional dj tools. first one is mike dehnert with his solid umlaut track that was overlooked by many when it was released on his own fachwerk imprint. mike is one of the big talents with his own trademark sound.. something we don t hear to often! 3 unreleased verions of umlaut2... mikes first unreleased mix, slightly housier then the first one, the umlaut2 new version which is a straigth up club tool. big surprise here is the remix by levon vincent! a new talent from new york that got his name on the map after 3 incredible releases on his own novel sounds and deconstruct labels. he did a more then excellent job with his dirty and housier version. levon did lay down a crazy groove with an old fashioned hook line (very n.y. house) and mold it into a fierce techno track. fresh and completely different then most techno out there these days.

strut present the story of one of the most influential and revered labels emerging from new york in the late >70s and 80s<, ze records. after the late 70s punk and new wave explosion in new york, ze became a by-word for the anything-goes culture clashes that typified the big apple during the early 80s. formed by french art student michel esteban and british journalist michael zilkha, ze quickly created its own unique independent universe, signing artists as varied as alan vegas electronic postpunk pioneers suicide, trash disco queen cristina and maverick producer august darnell a.k.a. kid creole. with estebans sharp graphic eye leading the labels visual identity, ze hit the new york zeitgeist head on and became supremely hip û in 1982, the face magazine nominated it ôthe most fashionable label in the world.the labels early success led to a deal with chris blackwells island records, which gave zes releases worldwide exposure and brought worldwide fame to kid creole, was (not was) and more. over thirty years on and ze remains one of the great cult labels of its time. with this new compilation, strut takes a snapshot of the many weird and wonderful fusions that surfaced on its famous nyc cab-influenced yellow and black label. highlights include one of the earliest outings by was (not was), tell me that im dreaming, a disbelieving commentary on reagan-omics, bob blankÆs short-lived disco supergroup aural exciters and a larry levan mix of kid creoles biting parable about corruption in the caribbean, theres something wrong in paradise. other featured artists include ze label regulars cristina, bill laswells material, kookie french experimentalist lizzy mercier descloux, and camp disco-electro icons, les garcons.

sometimes a track is so hot it just has to come back around again. about ten years ago brett johnson and dave barker (stucco homes) wrote some unbelievably catching house tunes, one of them being temptation and lies. so it just seemed right to give this track yet another life. deadbeat and mike shannon dive deep into a stripped down techno groover, removing the constant use of the vocals and creating a rolling techno dub version. some seriously deep bass in the production that works the subs in all the right places. ernesto ferreyra and guillaume coutu dumont aka chic miniature give you a playful melodic version on the flip. full use of the original chord progressions, combined with the guys signature marimba/latin percussion leaving you with a lush, warm summer hit. then brett dives into the track again giving you the oohs and ahhs mix. a ten minutes work out with bjs patented groove focused on the vocal harmonies in the original. the result is a warped, spaced out, long player that is sure to twist a few heads. mental just about sums it up. of course we had to include the original masterpiece for those who didnt find it the first time round. a favorite of everyone involved on the remix project i think youll agree that the temptation and lies cynosure mixes do the original some justice.

teaming up with the legend that is francois dubois. the first time the pair have worked together since the labels first release. the pair turn out a devastating house workout. deep warm synths, and heavy, killer keys, create a wonderfully moody, traditional workout, ready for all floors. on the flip, h turns to irish don and barcelona resident chymera, who turns in an electrified version of the original. injected with more pace and power than the original, the elements from the lead track hit he floor with added urgency. a great tech-infused cut, that will find favour across the board.

the original instrumental mix of stardust was one of hed kandis favourites at el divino last summer, and with the new season already taken off with the ims and the opening fiestas last week, ibiza is the perfect place to drop the new vocal mix, which really sounds like the long awaited vocal version of pjanoo that has never seen the lights of the day. this adds a monster loleatta holloway sampling vocal to the large twisted disco groove of the original. a massive bomb that is set to be a big hit for the usuals! skylarks andy chatterley takes to the controls with a powerful interpretation, complete with sharp driving drums and an underlying techno rhythm. a more stripped down dub mix is enclosed also for those who like things a little bit darker and deeper. last but no by means least, tim hudson, fresh from his latest here comes the sun release on hysterical, turns in a hypnotic house groove to make you smile.

the third 12 inch in this essential edit series sees greg wilson reference his past as a disco dj in the late 70s and, subsequently, electro-funk pioneer of the early 80s. going way back to his golden guinea days, ruff wrap revitalizes a hidden gem from 1977 by lady love. this version of casey & finchs infectious miami groover, wrap your arms around me, was a record that, although never issued in the uk, was a particular club favourite on merseyside - its local popularity very much down to one of wilsons influences, terry lennaine, who championed the track on his weekly specialist soul show, keep on truckin. moving on 6 years to 1983, ruff rapp re-arranges the seminal west coast rap cut bad times (i cant stand it) by captain rapp, which was a monster tune on the black scene during the electro-funk era, having initially featured at wilsons club nights back then, legend and the hacienda in manchester, plus wigan pier. focusing on the social problems of the time, the subject matter of the lyric certainly translates to the current credit crunch climate. the crew behind >bad times< included jam & lewis and rich cason, whilst kimberly balls excellent vocal sets the whole thing off

amyl nitrate (commonly known as popper) is a chemical compound. it has a long history of safe medical use in treating angina. its also often inhaled with the goal of enhancing sexual pleasure.inhaling nitrates relaxes smooth muscles all over the body, including the sphincter muscles of the anus and the vagina. listening to the original version, it is easy to understand the reason behind such a title. a dark and obsessive techno-bass in its depths. acid, nervous loops on the surface. sex and sweat everywhere. here and there, two surrealistic, hypnotic melodies breaking the darkness of the bass loop. a mix of sharp and round, deeper sounds. the vinyl version also features 3 great remixes: the amazing electro-minimal rmx by the hacker, the spiritual-dark rmx by rubÚn montesco and the fresh club rmx by produkkt
