they may have grown up in different generations on different sides of the atlantic, but one thing detroit master delano smith and irish up and comer gavin herlihy share in common is a disregard for boundaries. deftly slipping between the definitions of house and techno, both have carved names for themselves by ignoring the laylines of either genre to imprint their own inimitable stamp on dance music. on krypton factor the pair link talents to deliver an ep that is typically irreverent of trends or genres.

orlando voorn and underground liberation selected none the less than a.o. kevin saunderson, ken ishii, robert armani, luke slater (planetary assault systems), robert hood, ben sims, dj t-1000, suburban knight, k-alexi shelby and ritzi lee to deliver new version of tone explotation and phuture.

nice price deal !!! is it possible... we have returned to one of our favorite vocal projects from the label that was released earlier this year from steal vybe and the timeless vocals of alexis simmons. it was time to give >is it possible< some remix treatment and we called on our good freind rocco to lay down his deep vibes and we think it was a match made in heaven. we will let the music speak for itself. play this record loud!

>dysfunction<, hannulelauris first ep on i m a cliche goes beyond the dreamy, cosmic atmosphere of their previous releases and remixes on other eurodisco labels. the duos new sound still sends us floating but with an edgier, more toxic ride. hannu and lauri aka hannulelauri created a track for i m a cliche, a remix of botoxs hit >blue steel<. this track inspired the label to make more room for the finnish duo and bring their new music into its discography.
these two have been active figures in helsinkis club scene for quite a while, producing music together since 2006. when they crossed the borders of finland, the name of the band was pretty hard to retain but it didnt take long for all the bigwigs of modern disco to memorize it. two originals and a selection of remixes: >dysfunction< steps into the territory of deep melodic house with a classic resonance >box of box< throws around some fun rough beats toby tobias remix of dysfunction is iced with elegance and soulfulness. populettes remix of >box of box< is the new best friend of house dancers.

composite records is back with the second ep by tiago fragateiro. the original is a deep, solid and floating song with warm keys and, of course, the lovely voice of tracey k. than you will find two killer dub remixes by alain ho and jay shepheard, first one, a deeper and sexy journey with a massive bassline and groovy synth! on the other hand, jays takes you straight to the point, into a hypnotic state of mind, again with a powerful bassline.

>positivenoise< is collaboration between system 7 and british house music legend a guy called gerald who now lives in berlin, and is one of two tracks on the new system 7 >up< album that they worked on together. the original club mixs exuberant sounds and crisp beats exude an infectious feel-good quality and a bright tech confidence inspired by berlins leaner sounds - already gaining plaudits and plays for its modern club sound. the carl craig remix strips down the original, and twists and turns for the dancefloor with dubby deep techno in carls own legendary style. a.mochis remix is a darker interpretation, with a long dropdown featuring shimmering s7 trademark sounds and a breakbeat build-up.

transmissions sends us four intercepted signals from the mothership hovering over the motor city primed for the peak-time dancefloor that range from outer space techno trips to alien hip-shaking deep house. theres no fads here and no so-hip move faking, just quality in its purest form, and that alone can seem alien back on earth in these times…
