its been 18 months since our first nang release, d-pulses >more<. nestled on that release was an extra ep track called >highway to saturn<. much to our delight it turned out to be a bit of a gem. when it featured on the tirk 02 and kitsune ponystep / jerry bouthier compilations we knew we were all onto something. (cue the overdrive and the interstellar vocal.) slovenian-based, us singer, hannah mancini, provides those cosmic vocals, ably recorded by sare havlicek in sunny ljubljan. after a sly re-titling of the track (to avoid confusion with the original the name has been extended to >on a highway to saturn<) its on to the obligatory over-the-top nang remix package...first up is a new version from d-pulse for those long summer nights. their >australian shore reversion< mix slows down the groove to a balmy evening by noosa shores pace. space-rock, guitar solos, smouldering synths and lazy rhythms all combine to make this one for the beach house. sare havlicek adds a couple of mixes of his own. keeping things hi-energy he goes for the disco jugular with his trademark stabby synths and tight production. nang newcomers, proper heat, strip things back and go for a slow-grooving baltic-disco chugger. rounding off the remix package is japanese based jan ken po (aka max essa). he delivers a dance floor friendly version with a big and bold walking bass riff and tasteful synths

dance disorder (aka baby g and robin crafoord) have lived up to their reputation with an extremely successful bpitch debut. the disco smash >zusammen<, with its epic breadth and italo dance roots, has already had the chance to set many an after party in motion.

influenced by distorted electro sounds, to orchestral,jazz and blues pieces such as shostakovich and tom waits,he presents his first record,3 twisted and rocking tracks on archibell records.the first track right in the spotlight is >tokamak< a track with a dark kick and grind, featuring layered synths and vocal samples that break and drop with attitude.no time for intros this track hits hard and fast and leaves unexpectedly. next up is >g.i.g.a.s<, defined by its epic breaks, driving melody and sudden mood swing.perhaps the less sinister track out of the three, probably to give you a break for whats coming up next. unlike tokamak, nyxstarts with a slow baleful, classically influenced intro filled with suspense. eventually dropping into a deep atmospheric hard hitting groove. evil rhythm crafted with precise microsampling.

joint venture between the because, edbanger and warp labels, and what a result. killer new effort from squarepusher on the jazz-funk-electro tip, on a side cryptic motion, the perfect soundtrack for a remake of zabriskie point in 2012, heavy bass that slaps your flesh and some sunset vocoder. mr oizo on the b side for an epileptic straight to the head p-funk remix only him can twist that way. limited quantities, so be quick or be sorry!

super value is back with release number 12 - a fabulous new 12 inch from riccio. side a1: >reach out<: infectious strings backed with a deep driving bass loop and female backing vocals, supporting a soulful male vocal lead. all grooving with lots of percussion. side b1: >lay next to you<: slow grooving bass, strings and keys with a male vocal. sexy groove. side b2: >mercy<, heavy 4x4 kick/snare with rhythmic keys and a delicious bass line. topped off with a catchy male/female vocal.

murmur has become a gem in the stone path of electronic music labels, a consistent voice of quality through their series of vinyl and global events. no fit state is a vinyl sampler for the label, bringing together some gifted artists and insightful music to celebrate the label s journey. claire ripley opens the package with a solomun remix of slow loris , released earlier this summer on timorous ep. best known for releases on steve bug s dessous recordings, claire is an undeniable talent with flair for getting the feet moving. solomun pulls the trigger with his remix in a capricious whirlwind track setting the skies alight with energy. label head geddes pairs up for another collaboration with the skilled young australian, mic newman, after big releases on the tsuba label as well as murmur. rework is available on digital only release, a rattling snake of a record alive with chords and softly spoken calls.

>that placid track< has been in the hands of some lucky individuals for some time now, making its way across dancefloors from berlin to new york, bristol to tokyo.
dark disco references are heavy throughout with a great use of strings licks, a slo-motion vocal sample and a classic cowbell keeping everything nicely in check. as with most of octobers productions though he still has one foot firmly inside berghainrendering this essentially disco track into something with more of a late night, broody edge.

if there is a driving motive at the heart of gavin russoms latest project, the crystal ark, it is to create music that communicates and compels physicality and movement. a listen to the projects first single, aptly named >the city never sleeps<, reveals a track as tireless as the title suggests, and russom as a visionary who crafts invocations to move. with his second release under the crystal ark moniker, russom is just as focused on eliciting movement, but deftly avoids repeating himself. unlike its hypnotic predecessor, which slow burned and subtly seduced listeners to physically respond, >the tangible presence of the miraculous< is explicit in its urgings û a composition of nakedly energetic and urgent inducements to dance.

frederik hatsav and jamie kidd joined forces to create the new metalogic sound - edgy, dynamic and highly rhythmic electronic music. after releasing their music on well-known and respected labels such as perctrax and hidden agenda, their full-length album torus is a true highlight full of fresh and deep techno-tracks. the more you will play this amazing record, the more it will surprise and catch you. check out this bass-driven heavy monster-tunes that will rock any dancefloor around the world for sure!

emptiness isnt a quality you normally associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the dancefloor to the weight of the bass, its all about fullness, volume, density. reboot turns that opposition on its head with his debut album, shunyata. the title comes from buddhism and translates loosely as >emptiness.< but not just in the negative sense: it speaks also to impermanence, a state of constant flux. its a great description of reboots music, where everything is in constant and kaleidoscopic motion. and its also a fitting metaphor for the life of the frankfurt-based musician, aka frank heinrich. in just three years, since his first eps under the reboot moniker appeared on cadenza and below, hes become one of electronic musics hottest properties, releasing not only a slew of singles for labels like cocoon, love letters from oslo, ricardo villalobos >sei es drum< and underground cult fave motivbank, but also a pair of high-profile mix cds for cocoon and cécille

put your seatbelts on! after hitting toys in slow motion, bot.ox puts it into gear and takes to the autobahn, with uptempo drums, mad synth lines and freaky naive melody at the next left turn. >overdrive< could have been a perfect horror movie soundtrack, something like the pop corn theme covered by d.a.f.

side a) zone feat. robert lee – soul desires. summery slow mo disco, soulful beatdown. raw bass driving feel good track brings sunshine at your doorstep.
side b) time has been now. ltj … the longstanding producer from irma goes funky beatdown stylee, hypnotic, dubby vocal, whispering … as minimal as detroit production thought it still has the edge of italian recipe!

nice price deal !!! this is dasein, the opening potion of milyoos (aka tommy wilson) debut ep and the second release on subeenas new opit records. dasein attempts to grapple with existence, temporality and substance and what could be a more perfect description of these warped sonics- perpetual motion purely of the moment. multitude makes you feel like a tourist at an off-world bazaar, a strange landscape with a slug-bass bubble undercarriage and inquisitive wide-eyed synths. fayoh leads in with in a harold budd doing house piano before being pounced on by clipped vocal tics and odd blocks of cubist sound all underpinned by a funky beat and quite frankly its gorgeous. if there is a strand of coherence across the ep then its an almost exotic one- these are curiosities, virtual ships in bottles, they are not narrative pieces even if they are in constant motion. only two releases in and opit records is clearly going to avoid easy categorisation- milyoos debut is something to get mighty excited about and i await further transmissions with baited breath...

3rd release of shanti records presents a debut ep of artist dmitry ustinov. known for his parties >idle conversation< in clubs and dj-sets (as yaponets) dmitry now comes with his own disco production under moniker taras 3000. two tracks - slow and shining >white clothes< (produced together with famous local rock-band bi-2) and bassy new-wave flavored galaxis are supplemented by perfect dancefloor-ready remix of galaxis by pete herbert (reverso 68 / eskimo, ubiquity, k2).

mikkel metal aka mikkel meldgaard is back on echocord with a new powerfull ep. after the latest succesfull full length album with tikiman here comes the next ep on >passenger ep< mikkel metal tries explores new facets of his sound and take a detour from the dub-technom, thats his usual trademark. while obviously still retaining a metal-signature, theres an opening towards a more raw dirty detroit sound here, thats clearly new to his production. opening track >further< is slow tough track with a heavy kickdrum and simple theme. in its austerity it might actually remind one of very early metal productions like >eight< from echocord 01. remaing tracks >no stars today< and >i dream< both build on a dirty simple groove and layers synths and distorted themes on top.

>nausicaä< the female hero fights for survival through ecological desaster. with undeviating force she struggles to revitalize nature. the japanese manga art movie inspired blome to his new release on sender after the 10th anniversary compilation. track one on the a-site >nausicaä< opens with an instrumental amplitude which creates a soulful width. swinging bass weave a well constructed atmosphere of a sensitive play. circulating, flexible sequences combined with sensible used vocals of a guy called gerald creating an impulsive, drifty sound aesthetic. a synchronization of body and motion, of moment and expansion. on the >calamaris street< we travel moreaccelerated through the universe sender. with tentacular sense calamaris street spins strings of sound and voice to a hypnotic bustle. sender 087 is concatenating >nausicaä< and >calamaris street< in an ecstatic synthesis of sound and vision to an new euphoric synthesis.

big with: basic soul unit, ame, ingo sõnger, oliver hafenbauer, dixon, sevensol, dirk rumpf,roland appel,.. back from the initial mild pitch release >this feeling< last year, ribn deliver their overdue follow-up entitled >light black ep< - three tracks as ambivalent as the title suggests! the title track is a mesmerizing house/technohybrid of colourful darkness, reminiscent of classic early ribn releases: meandering synths and hypnotic sound fragments crawl around a stomping beat while the crunchy bass loop keeps moving things forward irresistably. first up on the flip side is >sin & figs<, a warm and pathetic summer gem that is destined to soundtrack any sunrise over the next couple of months. rich layer textures and sweet little melodies make this piece one of the most emotional moments of the mild pitch catalogue to date. closing the ep on b2 is >stonedrum<, a slow-motion house treat with oddly pitched vocals, a subtle groove and heavy low-end. its masked and fragile funkyness and crackling background noises complete a complex image that requires more attention than a 30-seconds preview clip to get a clue..

creepy-crawly 4/4 beats suffused in a murk of analog synthesizers & electric guitars

first on decks.de !! founded in 2009, time has come for the 1st release, >plusminus1<. whereas berlin dj sid wrote a track for the a-side, both, rohrer & siegel from potsdam, have their own track on the b-side. b2 >deepdownover<, created by alexander siegel, is a piece of art that goes back and forth, unifies high and low. his track can be said to cause emotional ups and downs. if the year had four musical seasons, >deepdownover< could be one of them. b1 >dr. pepper<, wolfgang rohrers track, a creative tool for the dancefloor, is deep and funky and has a bassline to tear down walls. with its groove, >plusminus 1< on the a-side is in the position to set fairly everything in motion. reduced to the essential

this debut lp by innergaze is chock full of rugged hand played analog synths lines, primitive drum machines, haunting vocals, and psychic jewelry. call it synthwave, call it punk, call it metaphysical body music or at this juncture whatever one sees fit, but this duos music goes beyond naming names for the sake of it. from the freaky, unrelenting opener >no shame< to the chris & cosey-esque >la la la<, this record creates many aural worlds to inhabit and explore. the title track >we are strange loops< bubbles at a slow, hazy drug induced bpm, while >illusions<, with its distorted almost guitar-like synth lines and stripped down 808 programming, brings things right back to the dance floor. the ideas and feelings executed here are a direct outpouring of what happens when the machines are turned on, played and recorded.
