cool lost and found stuff ... here with full cover .. great classic tracks

after the smash that was shatnereffekt one, handsette recordings return, bringing a host of diverse and super talented artists from around the world together on one massive ep and another essential array of electronic music.
kicking off the ep is kritical audios >spandex<, a tune that comes slow on the heels of the swedish duos 2006 braindance monster >krupp<. the swedish duo have come with an itchy slice of razor sharp electrofunk with a burbling acid bassline thats currently being caned by surgeon and rob hall (who says, i ve been playing the kritical audio track a lot. good stuff )... this is a big tune!
next up we have miles tilmanns >spirex< which starts with a wonky off beat that gives way to some wacked-out rubbery bassline action and a lead line that could have come from the keyboard hands of harold faltemeyer or parliaments bernie worrell.
following that is c. mantles >that other eden<. fearsome and delicate, morose and savage, >that other eden< is a serious piece of dancefloor heft with reese basslines burbling under a clattering beat before dropping away into a slightly terrifying double-drop breakdown.
unity gain temples >sahmo< rounds out the ep with a glistening, truly beautiful piece of work. the heavy kicks of the intro are met by a rush of lush chords and deft touches of melody, driving the track into a space that is pure audio luxury and reminiscent of brothomstates, arovane and tippers more contemplative moments.

super dope underground detroithouse old skool stuff !!! 100% pure decks tip!!

after the successful >srange days ep< leased on deep explorer music a few months ago, dubbyman & above smoke are now delivering the second part ep on the well respected dpress industries label, home of artists like nacho marco, tony blunt and pablo bolivar. dpress is the label where both deep explorer capos always wanted to put some stuff out as they have been supporting the label since the early beginning. on a side, dubbyman produces a soulful moodymannûesque track called >reen sunday<and rick wade (harmonie park, rush hour) works out a dubby and functial house remix. on b side, above smoke comes with >owntown< a warm and deep house track with some jazzy vibes, while ivan murias (thump elektroniks, inout records) is welcome to the label making a great rework of the track using some vocal samplers and showing us some good and deep manners, summer anthem for the deep lovers

you might remember collen & webb who from one of the early gamm releases (the jamaican jerk off). the boys are now back with two hot reworks on soul diva pauline?s hit single ?give me a call?. for fans of the soulful philly sound we recommend the ?soulful smash? version which rides on the o?jays ?back stabbers? sample. but if u?r into the amy winehouse sound u definitely need to check the ?northern smash? version with its jazzy loops and fierce rhythms. btw, watch out for more collen & webb action on gamm later this year...they got sum hot motown stuff in their trunks!

the chile house connection continues to sling the dopest stuff to our floors, barely satisfying the constant craving of dancers and punters worldwide for the highly addictive mixture of salacious latin polyrhythmics and organic afro inspired drum sounds with universal electronic 4/4 beats. cut and wraped up neatly by chile born and fastly rising don felipe valenzuela and swiss expat dani casarano, this duo continues with this heated 3 tracker to further cement their reputation from earlier releases on fumalab as a highly combustible combination: elastic compulsively grooving house beats are intervowen with latin-american call and response vocals in >otra vida<, the fittingly titled >push< constantly builds up the pressure even in the breakdowns with frantic, flamenco style hand clapping and >the little house< with its disco style bassline and the conga driven beat hints at the fruitful marriage of latin, soul and dance music in the melting pot of 70s new york. muy rico!!

the mission : bring together 18 international hybrid pop breakthroughs for the summer. for who: those who havent made their way into the jungle of the web and nouveautes in the past few months. fans of todays pop & rock. those who like unexpected hits, and who generally believe that some tracks deserve a 15 days life online. the frame: hybrid pop (except in one case), freshness, air du temps (anxiety-tinted-cheerfulness?), slightly-twisted-lightness. the base: a compilation. remember keeping the faith, artificial intelligence, c86, respect for france, source lab... and the effort behind your own, home made ball pen illustrated mix-tapes. compiling its all about sweat, attention and skills : suspense, respirations, cliffhangers and (not) happy ending... this one says it all on the cover artwork: starting all pop & girly then progressively twisting. you will notice that every sisters support are illustrated by different pictures of virile women and other men accepting their femininity. some of them will be edited as collectors silk screens and might get exposure in paris in july...come have a drink if youre around.

subdance is proud to announce their debut ep by the italian techno music legend lory d! last year we already heard some brand new things from lory, when, after 6 years without any new releases, he published two new twelve inches on the scottish label wireblock. æplisskenÆ on subdance is another stroke of genius from the roman as he comes up with two more classic examples of his unmistakable trademark sound, sombre and enigmatic, disturbing and fascinating, euphoric and energetic, powerful and direct! the a sideÆs æbank robberyÆ is a fresh interpretation of the track of the same name from john carpenter s æescape from new yorkÆ soundtrack. lory musically transports carpenterÆs apocalyptic visions of the last days into the new millennium. the brooding bass line and haunting atmospheres push the listener to an otherworldly dimension. this is loryÆs own masterpieceà lory d in technicolor and cinemascope! the b sideÆs ædisso bassÆ aims for the dance floors immediately. a perfect techno-electro track where exploding synthesizer cascades meet fragile melodies and archetypal lory d bass lines, each with a mind of their own. redshape, another techno music legend, is responsible for the mastering of both tracks. amazing stuff!

originally released on analytic trail at the end of 2007, c est la vie (and b-side oasi) marked the debut for joseph capriati. since this time capriati has gone on to become one of the hottest names in techno with releases on the scenes labels including drumcode, clr and sci and tec.

first up to rework oasi is great stuff s ramon tapia. without doubt one of the names of 2009, tapia delivers a typically dramatic mix where sparse trial rhythms meet pulsing, offkilter melodies. hot new production duo hauswerks and gaz james keep up the pace with a more funked up version centered around a wicked rolling groove while homegrown neapolitan talent abnormal boyz offer up a stomping rework that twists things out with deep undulating bass.

l-vis 1990 is quickly solidifying himself as a bass-prodigy. you re forgiven if you re unfamiliar with the name but pay attention - this 25 year old from brighton has stormed on the scene and is making some of the most singular dance music we ve heard of late - this stuff is truly standout. with the ever-building epic come together and the floating then undeniably face smashing united groove , we re hearing a heavy sound with a new and refreshing take on structure and style. he has upcoming releases on kitsune & dim mak as well, plus a busy club schedule with his night slugs monthly in london, and one offs at the biggest european clubs (fabric london, social club paris, scala berlin, etc). oh and did we mention that with all that he still finds the time to make videos for the likes of dance area and riton!? definitely one to keep your eye on. in the meantime, these two tracks form a serious weapon. amazing new mad decent record that s making big waves worldwide. touches of grime, house, uk funky and your classic mad decent styles. big.
