part 2/2! mit beginn der warmen jahreszeiten melden sich auch die jungs von simple as that records zurück. anlaesslich ihres 10. release jubilaeums lassen sie mit neuem design den fruehling einkehren. melodische rhythmen bringen nicht nur die knospen zum sprießen, sondern wecken auch die letzten tanzwuetigen aus dem winterschlaf. wie auch schon in den neun vorherigen releases, geben auch hier wieder freunde ihre stuecken zum besten. welch erfreulicher zuwachs der satr familie. auf die naechsten 10! vielen dank ihr banausen! >es ist fruehling. wunderbar. nicht mehr lang und der sommer ist da.<

so what is after the void ... we bang the bomb of course with a lady in a thong surrounded by snakes and hand grenades, obvious really! having been away for some time it appears that a light sounds dark spring is in the air. en route to their next destination (rumoured to be a dark subterranean world full of nasty mutants danger electrified tracks out this summer) with arms out the window and the mothership roof down, its full steam ahead and proper european dance music time. not really train spotting as before although a couple are a bit off piste like maltas very own ian dury by the name of iain richardson rapping about sitting on a green bus! much more like it however are classic italo covers of big in japan, gloria, a wonderful new wave version of falcos euro smash der kommissar and the thoughts massive german hit wait a long time sounding like some long lost talk talk record. light sounds dark do some minor tweaking (going for that natural look) to big beast anthems axodrys you and colme 111s you take me high (early euro take on chicago) and for lovers of something a bit more funky theres some groovy goings on from kraut funksters epsilon urging people to leave the city which might not be a bad idea if the water runs out.

part 1/3! the treibgut sonder kompilation consists of tracks by artists which played at the treibgut parties over the last five years. the opening track is the perfect warm up for listening to this compilation. chris established an ideal symbiosis of a smooth bass and a warm vocal line quickening your appetite for more. a groovy funky filtertypen track as we love it. you can spot their hip-hop roots in the vocal parts. the tight kickdrum contributes the uplifting punch making this track defintely a dancefloor tune rather than a warm up. a groovy piece of house music with a spherical break and a deep bassline for our brothers and sisters. this is a slip- proof track with a catchy vocal – definetely causing fun. deep, warm and drifty – this track is putting you in the perfect mood for enjoying sunset in the meadows or warming up at the club. if you cant let go and relax with this track you are probably a hopeless case.

rebuilt album is a lp from ethnik groove that includes 6 new remixes from some of the classic tunes (funky moment - gotta go - unexplicable life) produced by paul eg with two bonus tracks. after several singles in collaboration with international renowned artists such as eriko tanabe, quantec, jeff bennett, davide squillace, florian meindel, markantonio and umberto carmignani, ethnik groove has invited benja, david lazzari, paul eg, reto ardour (switzerland), lee burton (greece), philip braunstein (brasil), jeff bennett (sweden). they frequently release outstanding lp on various international labels. these artists were chosen for their musical feeling and for their collaboration on brilliant tunes released on ethnik groove and minimo imprint, our techno-minimal division. musical approach the concept was to regroup artists with a diverse range of musical flavour in one lp to obtain a non -superficial album. the original tracks have a different approach from the techno tunes produced nowadays. the idea was to keep the same groove with a current trend to allow the artists to add their own musical flava in a defined style between techno, minimal and tech-house.

flying donkey music, after the first two releases by samuel l session and kirk degiorgio got the respect as one of the new more interesting labels in the underground stream. as third release we can appreciate the homeboy claudio mates m2g4: he shows us something new and different, which is hard to catalogue, just a techno/house track or a simple piece of electronic music. tribute mix by claudio mate is a perfect journey in deep, dark, emotional, emotive lands within an amazing epic ending with guitars played by luca petrosino (an italian guitar talent). orlando voorn really doesnt need any introduction: his deep divine mix is the perfect mix and balance between raw grooves, melodies and solid bassline like his usual trademark. its perfect for dancefloor people who loves berghain or fabric. david hausdorf is a classical musician from the munich philharmonic orchestra but he is also well known for his old works on labels such as synaptic waves, styrax leaves, salo, lifetime music.

yellorange must be considered one of the most prolific house music labels in history. founded in 1998 by the legendary tony humphries, the label closed its doors after a short run only in 2003 when strictly rhythm (who handled its distribution) collapsed. in those few years, the label put out nothing but quality music, with many - if not all - of these releases being considered a classic nowadays as you would imagine, there are lots of unreleased mixes to be discovered, and for years the fans have eagerly awaited the return of the label in hope some of these gems would see the light of the day. finally the wait is over and yellorange is back with >yellorange history - the kept it to ourselves mixes<, a collection of previously unreleased mixes by kerri chandler, paul simpson and david harness available on limited coloured vinyl. first come, first served!

kieren dickins aka dels meldet sich mit seiner dritten single bzw ep für big dada zurück, die auch als vorbote des langerwarteten albums zu verstehen ist. für die musikalische untermalung zeigt sich kwes verantwortlich, der bereits durch veröffentlichungen auf young turks und seine arbeit mit the xx für mächtig furore sorgte. dels wütende aber nie hoffnungslosen lyrics verschmelzen auf wundersame weise mit kwes tighter produktion. erinnert streckenweise an eine fusion aus tv on the radio und massive attack. dels zählt sicherlich zu englands derzeit besten mcs!
