act natural records drop everybody needs a hobby ep from sonett records boss martin dacar

as a rave icarus turns to his companion and sighs, *we tried to touch the sun my friend, but we got burned...* these tracks leave a trail of scorched earth behind them while you stand bewildered in their smoking wake. nurture your most wayward desires to these sounds coming from god knows where, and inflict them on the innocent as soon as you can.

three cuts from sven tasnadi, member of the neighboring leipzig based moon harbour family. with this small things ep he is stripping down functional dancefloor ambitions and goes back to the subtle side of deeper housemusic. beside these three originals map.ache adds a pushing remix which portrays the first sign of musical life since his album release one and a half years ago.

kicking off the new year steve bug style poker flat recordings sets course for another year of quality house music. the label boss himself presents us with the first transmission of 2014 - and the title succinctly nails what to expect.

the los angeles based steve huerta popped up on the sccucci manucci radar via his releases on the formidable amadeus records and dirt crew recordings, we tracked his progress and liked what we heard. a couple of months back we handed over the keys to mr. manuccis penthouse apartment and sl 230 pagoda to the young angeleno, and in-between being fitted for smoking jackets and hand made brogues he managed to get some productions complete with the results pressed up for the fifth release on manuccis mistress.

the mysterious lord of italo hooks up with il bosco on the latest hot 4 tracker from red laser. a simple and dark bassline with haunting lasers creates the bubbling imagery of a journey through manchester at night. where are we heading? to the fukin disco mate. how we getting there? in il bosco s 10 year old ford focus with the fat system g. why is the underside all crumpled? cos dj emerald beached it in tib street car park. windows down on a summers night? no, theyre broken. kid machine rocks the quickest shit i ever heard him make with this italo-electro-disco smasher. the title track to a film score that doesnt exist maybe ? this sci-fi thriller gives bass line collectors their monies worth and the beats are seriously heavy, but my favourite thing about this recording is the glittering euphoric interludes that appear twice in the track and make the whole composition complete. his strongest stuff yet. yes yes yes starion returns with another cosmic italo disco bubbler. its the soundtrack to a film set thousands of years in the future about a pimpin robot called night flanger. he makes sure all the fembots undercarriages are maintained and well lubricated when hes on a night out drinking diesel and smoking aluminium too hot to handle. too cold to hold. dirty girl is a boogie electro funk jam from il bosco. a chopped up rare as fuck record. can you find out what it is? probably. if you do and you know how to contact the artist let us know... do not miss!

for the collectors this massive album from 2008 is split into 3 different parts.

greek native john dimas is fast becoming highly respected in the house game and his living lies ep on la vie en rose, an excellent cross-section of the different styles and vibes of house music, should help to further cement that reputation.

the e.p kicks off with she can dance, a slow burning acid number that has elements of deep, grooving house from the detroit school. in fact, the second cut low control bares the influence of detroit too, with its murky, dubbed-out chords ala luke hess moving into a punchy bassline with minimal but functional drum patterns. proceedings get a bit more bouncy on the smoking hat, a quirky acid romp on the less daft side of ceephax, and the perfect soundtrack to accompany a feature-length documentary about.... a smoking hat. finishing up the e.p is fudge fingas remix of low control, the only man qualified to make an already deep as fuck track even deeper. theres been some on-point criticisms about a lot recent deep stuff getting lost in noodly jazz territory, but we are in no danger of that nonsense with fudge fingas at the controls: accomplished a musician he may be, hes never been one to lose the way, and this mix proves his deft and subtle remix talents. dabj done done it again, and hopefully this is the first in a long line of productions from vernon.

wer mit freddy fischer und seiner cosmic rocktime band noch nicht so recht vertraut sein sollte, braucht vielleicht doch erst ein paar stichworte. orientierungshilfen. da hört man also einen jazzrock, den es aber geradewegs auf den tanzboden zieht. und disco. auch diese lässige eleganz der lieder, die manfred krug mal gesungen hat in den siebzigern und damit selbst die ddr etwas swing schenkte, wenigstens für einen moment. und jetzt vielleicht noch eine weitere glitzerkugel voll disco dazu. das steckt man dann alles in einen schicken smoking, und schon steht da ein freddy fischer da.

a time machine appeared to us recently in a cloud of smoke and a giant portal of light. out of the portal a smoking piece of futuristic metal emerged and fell onto our floor. closer examination revealed it to be a time capsule sent from the future. a message from the year 2043, it contained diagrams of futuristic machines from what looks to have been the studio sessions of the recordings presented here. here is what we found, a 2 track ep (plus remixes) from artists from the future. recordings made 21 years from now but from artists who you may have already heard of today.

marbert rocel spend most of their time looking out of the window and smoking. then they make music, someone draws for a while, and they soon go back to looking out of the window and making music. marbert rocel are twinkle-toed, and yet hardly tangible when you try to grasp them. they combine dance music with songs, songs with cookies and, in turn, cookies with dance music.therefore, marbert rocel spent a lot of time touring – playing gigs in germany, holland, italy, poland, indoors, outdoors, on the roof, in the cellar, in small groups, in front of many people, and in front of very many people.<it greatly influenced our music. this is the reason as to why we now make ballads at 130 bpm.< at a concert on enceladus in 2010, marbert rocel met martin kohlstedt. he seemed to fit perfectly to the band and behind the rhodes, thanks to his constant eight- armness and his tiger stripes.

eshu records returns, after a succesful first release, with a 4 track ep that shows the many sides of the techno spectrum eshu records admires. an excellent selection with tracks from mattias fridell, tomas rubeck, myles serge and imugem orihasam. a nice list of talented up and coming producers from all over the globe (sweden, detroit, uk, germany). smoking techno tracks with influences from detroit techno, duuby berlin sounds and more straight forward club bangers. worth the check!!

jack fell down are a slight adjustment to the generic format presented by producers and djs who. through conformity and expectance stand without exception in the fog of musics popularity led culture. opting instead to work in obscurity and anonymity jack fell down have signed a deal with one of the worlds longest standing and respected dance labels, southern fried records along side some of the industries biggest artist. jack fell downs debut release is a limited edition 12 inch extended player and will be in shops april 2012, this will be followed up with remixes for the 2 bears and a second ep with southern fried. jack fell down have an exclusive track on the upcoming jaymo & andy george compilation and have confirmed radio shows and blog podcasts with platforms such as ibizas sarah mains syndicated radio show. jack fell downs approach to a performance is purist, exchanging the mac book pro for the 1210s and the digital effects unit for technique, they are content to share the love at a dirty bog stomp or a world class club.

warm, sparse, subtle pulsating ambient/ambient house album.
what is behind >human too<? its the debut album by thomas bachner – the hidden mind running playtracks records, releasing his debut album. first audio studies recognise the order of the tracks: in the end, the ten stories, each embedded in the right place, shape the album like a well-written childrens book of sound. its the first glimpse into the depths of the playtracks head and it feels curious and thriving at the same time. catalogue number 11, it reaches the human ear from several directions: downtempo, house, clicks&cuts, ambient and a subtle bit of techno and jazz. by filling the albums grooves they make it an audititve pleasure, both at home and while clubbing. enjoy your meal!

excellent deep / soulful house album !

picture 7 inch! luke million is a fellow out of adelaide, australia and is the hectic keys player and synth wizard from the swiss. he often starts his morning by bench pressing his yamaha cp-70 and drinking 3 or 4 shakes of reel to reel tape. this limited edition 7 inch picture disc celebrates the arnold we used to know… on the first side is the stella italo jam >arnold< . on the flip side is >sun splash< - a smoking new tropical jam that should please fans of our poolside 12 inch and early metro area workouts.… dont get big, get massive.

we are back for another slab of genre-defying, ass-kicking, booty-shaking, timeless underground beats. get the curse music 07 features two cuts from the mysterious crackboy and two remixes from rising star gesaffelstein & toronto’s james teej. the question of crackboy’,s identity is burning everyone’s lips. who’s hiding behind this oh-so poetic moniker? theories abound, and rumor has it crackboy was last seen smoking on his pipe in the filthiest dens of the parisian underbelly. efforts to trace him since then have proved fruitless and until the next sighting, the enigma remains.
in spite of all this mystery one fact is crystal clear: with early feedback from ed banger’s busy p reaching the same conclusion that crackboy’s productions are solid gold, this is an ep with substantial crossover potential that will put the whole scene on the same wavelength.
support from joris voorn, steve bug, konrad black, laurent garnier, busy p, mathew dear, roman flugel, stephan bodzin, deetron, dubfire, kiki, gregor tresher, norman nodge, dj feadz, the hacker, remain, cosmo vitelli, arnaud rebotini, tobi neuman, erol alkan, ewan pearson...

kazuya kawakami takes us on a 3 track voyage into deep techo territories. remix comes frrom miles sagnias.

>dance to the music< recalls the vitalic spirit of yesteryear, laced with smoking disco loops, rubberband basslines and a cajoling vocal hook that sounds so bright you would swear it was crafted with pure sunshine. the dub reveals a sexy bassline and those signature soularis beats. on the flip the boys dish up a a slice of deep house pie with high noon, dedicated to that green, sticky substance. mellow chords and marijuana endorsing samples make this song the perfect way to start off your mix-tapes and live gigs. the chill-out mix is a beautiful 7 minute smokers delight, complete with spine-tingling strings and downtempo rhythms which will leave you more horizontal than a few perkies and some choice lager.

jatoma are all about the unknown and though they are new amongst us they remain cloaked in paradoxes and already questioned by many. some think that one of the members is a famed producer amongst 2 genius teenagers.
others project they are a side act for a band held in the highest regard. some will speculate they are just trying to get more attention by remaining unknown. the facts remain blurry and ambiguous but there remains an clear authenticity surrounding these factors - jatoma are clearly one of 2010s most inventive new acts our ears have had the pleasure to hear and its with our excitement we welcome them to kompakt. so enter their self-titled debut full length - >jatoma<.

excellent smoking disco / cosmic madness

>bite sized beats vol. 1< has two smoking cuts from flapjack veteran wattie green. the first cut >flip mode< is a great throwback to the jack of i:cubes hit disco cubism. utilizing the same slammin key sample, wattie slices it up just right and puts in the smoker very early in the morning. after about 8 hours, it comes out and is seasoned to perfection with his solid beats and break wisdom resulting in one hell of a delicious dance floor bomb.
