we dont need to tell you that rolando is a figure synonymous with the roots of techno. regularly djing in berghain, his unique brand of techno and heavy electronic funk has continued to evolve naturally into the sound youll here today. on rolandos first 12inch for ostgut, we find two diverse tracks each shedding light on the different poles of his current sonic focus. ben klock featured both >de cago< and >junie< on his >berghain 04< mix, and now we can enjoy the full tracks in their own right. the proud heritage of >de cago< is clear from the outset, yet rolando works crisp modern drums and edgy acidic synths into the mix, resulting in a potent concoction of jacking, edgy technofunk. unapologetically raw and gritty - and all the better for it - is >junie<. introducing a different production methodology, this multi-layered half-tempo exploration into eerie harmonics and slow building passages is the latest incarnation of rolandos emotional and instinctive melody writing

with his debut release on highgrade, >never end<, artist and producer andri has already proven his sense for captivating rhythms and driving beats. it is no accident that the swiss producer spent his childhood swinging the drumsticks and is now bringing his enthusiasm for those beats to the dancefloor. andri is known well beyond the borders of his native switzerland for his energetic and sweaty live performances, which always include new tracks for the floor. with his live sets he aims to encourage more than just wiggling movement – he tries to incite the party freak, to inspire a >technoid mind state< where people want to dance like crazy, all night long! as he says himself: >the people on the dancefloor should be able to experience the story of my sets and completely forget themselves.< but andri is not attempting to be a hyper intellectual sound director, and while his sets and tracks are carefully composed, they also retain a sense of humour. this is the case with his new highgrade release: >up lantis<. the three tracks - >up lantis<, >come to me< and >mr. groove< skillfully play with original samples, crackling beats and sexy basslines. they develop a very unique field of tension, punctuated with a lot of fun filled andri trademarks: this is the dictation of groove

the latest from thesongsays brings back one of our main players - bruno pronsato. whats he been up to you might ask? aside from completing his album lovers do, working on music with thomas melchior and daze maxim and putting out records as pubic lover with our leading lady ninca leece, not much… maybe hes been in the rafters sipping coffee or understudying for bigger roles. who knows. nonetheless he’s back. these two new tracks come from his upcoming lp, lovers do. its a single, sort of. but not really. because when has bruno ever done a single like we know a single? this 12-inch is about as far as you could get from club fodder. rather, its a pair of subtle grooves to soundtrack you cutting carrots, sipping whiskey, or dancing at some intimate afterhours spot

after his rather menacing vision called >worlds end< (hometrainer/acid pauli 12inch, dec 2010) acid pauli pulls another two typical tricky tracks out of his musical drawer. but, to confuse right from the scratch, he gave them polarizing names such as >like it< and >dont like it<. has he possibly planted something on us?

new collaboration with bobby&kleins giom and la derek dunbar. title track is peak time disco funk all out jam that has a perfect vocal hook and serious funk. gioms remix takes a deep turn adding synth stabs and pads. dereks remix is driving force with beat cuts. last cut is downtempo gem.

bjorn torske is a special artist with a special name. he was born in northern norway where fishing has been the main industry for hundreds of years and his name literally translates as >bear cod<. even making dinner is unique in norway: you put the potatoes on to boil, go out to sea and catch a fish, then return to prepare the meal…this process is known as >kokning<. to say that northern norwegians do things their own way would be putting it lightly … to say that bjorn torske is making music his own way would be exactly right.

following a rapturous response from all quarters for his debut begin 12 >optical holiday<, james has taken the accolades on board and got back in the studio for release number 2 safe to say he definitley doesnt disappoint ! velocity is another balearic beauty in every sense of the word, already championed by the legendary moonboots & balearic mike (recently played on tim sweeneys beats in space show to much speculation !) and hotly tipped by the handful of players whove received upfront copies. its the musical equivalent of feeling the sun on your face, the crashing of waves on the warm breeze and sand between your toes for many of you james will need no introduction, being the chemical brothers tour dj for many years, as well as the longstanding resident at bugged out during its early manchester days and back to basics in leeds, he opitimizes everything wonderful about a resident dj, paid to make the main guy look good, but often infinitely superior at the job ! as youd expect james musical knowledge is vast, and a firm grounding in the vibrant manchester music scene means he wields it at will, each and every weekend proper

>3.652 tage< : the track a day originated after my 10-year-old djs jubilee. from the mood of the eve, there originated thus the acoustics-percussion beat with emitter surfaces. >zeitfenster< : this track with miguel aka electric gloss, to a friend from portugal produced. he has visited me for two days in frankfurt, meanwhile we were diligent in the studio. the sound capes remind me of a typical summer thunderstorm. >eureka< : this number has something incredible for me. a kind of space-electro with quite futuristic melody. if somewhat is inspired by the film barbarella. unambiguously one of my favourites on the album.

simoncino (aka nick anthony) from italian super edit label no more hits crosses the atlantic and finds a new home with on the prowls sub-label party breaks. what immediately stands out upon first listen is the production style, not being able to tell what is a sample and what has been replayed… much like tensnakes mega hit. the simoncino sound is firmly rooted in proto-house and 80s r&b. with ingredients like ancient drum machines, arpeggiated melodies, and cheap 80s pads, his concoction boils over with a certain cheekiness that makes listeners grin from ear to ear. all four tracks are subtle hits in their own right. excellent ep!

pional takes things in stride. and we like that. despite the enthusiastic response towards >a moot point<, his debut on our label, he has kept it low. locked in his studio, with his mic and his machines, recording non-stop but being extremely picky about what he chooses to release. thats why we are a tremendously thrilled about introducing you to >we have been waiting for you<, a song that has been blowing us away since the first time we heard it.

holmby hills two smooth n ruff house tracks and two hip hop-jazz encores turn this record into a testimony for the state of mind of formresonance. when soul is melted together into an off the grid house track, it is not that far-fetched that both men have shared their music ever since tapes existed. engin oeztuerk, one half of here today, which came out on philpot and buzzin fly and block barley (who already has released two albums on hong kong records and we aint music) are both tinkering in search of music to dance to. they wickedly transform their musical masters ideas into something extraordinary sounding. an off-the-grid team
