classic cut from the two old hands ! a level non zero release with the catalogue number 23 – who woudnt expect a conspirational track? and indeed: after legendary release >futher & further< (lnz05) the secret house society leaders pascal feos & heiko mso (klang elektronik / playhouse) once again met for a conspirational studio session to dominate the clubbing world with an extraordinary production. the result is named luv and sounds like the essence of the essence of minimal house music neatly stretched out to 11 minutes running time. cladestinely theyve implemented classical chicago jack elements in a modern lunar probe to irridate mother earth with an eternal stream of love. adequate gravitation-free the sound comes across as a gauze of warm bassy clouds, funky finger clicks, sustain violin strings and paradisiac luv female vocals. after a long ethereal break the track speeds up again smoothly and reveals a subtile glowing sound of the tb-303. luv is the perfect example of rarely produced tracks that give you the feeling of oustanding full-embracement

put together in 2002, through work and love meetings in the country dedicated to it, junesex spent their first two years finding a sound, making an album &#147,so fucking chic&#148,, and releasing it. chapter two, playhouse losoul introduces this ep with a penetrating lesson of rhythm. the jazzy piano and unstoppable 4/4 beat of his art in time of love remix projects the dancers straight to the seventh sky. this is a house affair!

alec storey has been making quite a name for himself in techno & electro circles since his debut release on kracktronik back in 2006. renowned for his no-holds-barred live shows (which often incorporate stunning demonstrations of his considerable skills as a drummer), he has also been making considerable progress in the studio, with new equipment and new techniques. the troglodyte ep is a distillation of all these things and more, and although calling it refined might be stretching it a bit (its not called the troglodyte ep for nothing), its certainly fair to say that he has honed his sound into a near-perfect combination of brutal beats, bowel-busting bass, and mind-mangling sound design, all presented at slightly-higher-than-normal tempos, guaranteed to get the pulse racing. for remix duties we called in two heavyweight producers! carl finlow (aka silicon scally) has been turning out immaculate electro, house and techno for over 10 years now, with releases & remixes on such respected labels as mute, warp, playhouse, satamile & scsi-av . here he turns troglodyte into an off-kilter, but driving, electro workout full of twists and turns. kracktronik fave volum doesnt disappoint either. he drops the tempo and increases the spook factor by a few notches, and as always his intricate programming reveals layer after layer of nutritious electronic brain-food.

philly gypsy-swamp-rock-carny -soul-viking-vaudeville -punk collective. this record matches the fierce energy of their non-stop live show

time to jack! running back returns with berlins prosumer at the helm. as a resident dj of the infamous and sinful panorama bar, producer for labels like playhouse, get physical, ostgut ton (his album >serenity< together with murat tepeli is about to drop) and mobilee and blessed with an angelic voice, prosumers heart beats fort he music of the twin cities detroit and chicago and their inspirational tail

firm fave of: ewan pearson, agoria,fabrice lig, ali schwarz, shinedoe, ben watt, jimpster, umek, bodzin !!! pele is back, this time in cooperation with shokh aka dave shokh, dipolder label owner and kiddaz.fm ambassador. peles last release >childhoods end< is one of connaisseur most successful releases so far in 2007, with plenty of licensings for many important summer compilations. thumbs was already released as a limited 250 copies white label release in february this year. finally this great rumbling techno track found its way to connaisseur, to be presented to a bigger audience. >thumbs< is a squeaky, twittery and kickin minimal techno track packed with a bunch of little astonishing moments. already featured on patrick chardronnets grand cru mix, this is more than a perfect mixing tool: a stripped down minimal hymn, no redundant emotions, strictly rhythm a quality ass-shaker! simon baker leeds-based shooting star of 2007. after his amazing releases on playhouse, connaisseur, viva and his own imprint infant, he drops this massively bouncing techno monster of a remix. kind of chicagoesque, kind of daft and massively pushing pure peaktime madness!

aus continue to release the best and brightest of contemporary dance music with the oehug the scary ep, a collaboration between luminaries will saul and lee jones. will saul is best known as the head of simple records, up for nomination as best british label in dj magazine this year and also sister label to the more experimental aus imprint on which this ep is released. in his career to date he has released numerous singles on simple, the critically acclaimed space between album and has recently produced an ep for the german label systematic. englishman in berlin lee jones has to date released acclaimed singles on liebe detail, aus and his own label, just rec. formerly releasing under the moniker hefner , he is also a main creative force behind playhouse my my, whose oesongs for the gentle album won plaudits worldwide in 2006. opener oehug the scary is a transcendental journey. trace echoes of melody encircle an intensifying percussive step, filtering to a chimed key reflection. tonal themes fade in, compete, distort and then depart, making way for peaks of overwhelming melody, with only the fittest surviving and elevating to the sublime. on the flip side, partial arts (the duo of ewan pearson and al usher) give their own, heavily percussive, account of proceedings. stormy fuzz and bubble bath accents introduce a funk bassline and interplay between looped guitar and tonal melody. a sci-fi synth haze halts and then dictates the progression into a saturated melodic climax.

"dust science returns with fresh blood for 2007 on the faith is fear ep. weve been fans of fabrice lig for years her at dust. hes released an avalanche of great techno on classic labels such as kms, 7th city, fcomm and playhouse and hes done us produ with his first release for us. "access denied" is a surging, swinging, darkside monster thats relentlessly tricky and funky. the detroit pads are seriously tripped out and swamped in glitchy beats and stepping hi-hats, and theres some serious low end; its a hell of a track. regis and female are responsible for some of the best uk techno ever made. here they contribute c/chaos; performed live at the orbit in leeds, its simply massive, propelled by downward twisting strings and utterly slamming, intoxicating electronic rhythms. techno luminaries the 65d mavericks are renowned for their driving but innovative techno. "wiretap" is well up to their high standards."

the members of my my met and became friends through common interests in music, but it wasnt until they ended up as neighbours in berlins mitte, that a lifestyle of committed partying, cake baking and long studio sessions lead to their debut release on playhouse >klatta< in early 2005. it was the result of previously downtempo producer lee jones (hefner) working and partying with local berlin djs nick höppner and carsten kleeman, who are residents respectively at panorama bar and watergate. following up their recent fantastic 12inch on circus company butterflies & zebras is beautifully tripped-out expansive ambient house, summer after-hours here we come! recorded live with nick and lee layering fx over the organic percussion as the mix develops. an acid infused bassline is slowly opened out as layers of lush strings and shimmering pads are teased into the arrangement. on moneybowl the boys show the more jacking side of my my. taught and lean with a groove that keeps on evolving, while weird and wonderful bleeps and clicks bounce around the mix. for the remix, john dahlbäck twists the pads from the original and adds his own synth stabs. then pulls out a bassline and arrangement that jumps straight onto the dancefloor

die neue fabric-ausgabe kommt von roman flŸgel, einem seit Ÿber 20 jahren elementaren mitglied der frankfurter elektronic-szene, der unter aliases wie alter ego, acid jesus oder sensorama auf labels wie playhouse, ongaku, klang elektronik, cocoon oder dial (club-)musikgeschichte geschrieben hat. und auch sein fabric-mix ist geprŠgt durch seinen langjŠhrigen, charakteristischen stil: abstrakt, idiosynkratisch und dicht, dabei aber immer warm und einladend.
