south carolina rapper lil ru mixes the best of the areas signature sounds to create his own style of southern hip hop

this time the p crew mash up underworld with a touch of dk8 and on the flip we have a serious monster mashup, green velvet takes a trip to brazil alongside laurent garnier...

skat, the paris underground groove machine, the ever banging and so respectably personal sounding producer is onboard with us at sthlmaudio! mais oui!!! fred aubourg a.k.a. skat made his first musical education in the early 80s in rouen by listening his father during his radio show. hidden behind the mixer, he discovers artists and musical styles which would soon become essential for him, and would naturally lead him towards house, hip house and hip hop as well. he will then build his first loops with a k7 recorder in the mid 80s... skat comes here with a deliberately house ep. and it makes us all happy, because weare tired of the sterile, tired of the clicks with micro kicks

cool package of trip hop mixes by sabre and pepper

mad hip hop/downbeat record record featuring sensational (formerly torture who recorded an album, way back when, with the jungle brothers). the dub on the flip has had heads jerking here since the promos came in. truly heavy and one for fans of theo & rednose

nice price deal !!! having previously recorded disco sucks vol.3 for bill brewsters disco sucks label! this 12 is actually his first release under this name, and what a way to start. a. takes on n.e.r.d she wants to move featuring the hip hop allstars (q tip, de la soul, jungle brothers, native tongue) and turns it in to a disco hip house monster! a guaranteed floor filler! b1. get down, samples the classic new york disco punk funk tune connie case, and turns it into an electro disco house belter. b2 is a down tempo baldelli style, cosmic/slo motion flavour, ideal tune for the beginning or the end of the night!

groovements 4th vinyl release introduces one of the finest portuguese djs and one of the labels main activists. shifting destiny is just what we ve all been waiting for a diverse and challenging record ready to be played in different environments. the opening track is a hybrid electronic soul tune with vocals from melo d, the bluest of the afro portuguese singers. then comes the love for hip hop and cosmic music in the shape of a vibrant collaboration mastered by broadcites main man troy.the b side keeps that irresistible dance appeal alive with hausers blues and ends in style with lata dog providing the perfect musical vibration to kaspars programming, turning raindown into a great urban song for radio and club.

versatile are delighted with this new addition to their catalogue. a release made in belgium by detroit techno prodigy: fabrice lig. as you will notice on this new ep, the first white guys to have signed a record on kevin saundersons legendary label kms, remains faithful to the sound of motor city. a light and esoteric melody sets the tone of >x-slaves who changed the world<. the tight clap and kick drum leave room for the modulating bass. a voice similar to martin luther kings, repeats names of cities in which slavery prevailed, whilst pads stimulate the mental trip. the x slave is taken by the dancefloor, changing the world as he dances to the beat. “funk la termite” is elastic funk. binary rhythms, off-beat chords which keep the groove balanced whilst the hi-hats, like little insects, dig away at the beat, building it and deconstructing it as the sounds evolve. >the round of funky bugs< continues in the vein of creepy crawlies. here, the synths are more upfront, their acidic layering create a mixture of harmonic loops which will set all hells lose. the melodies and use of pads stay anchored in the detroit tradition, but this production fits just as well with all the current electro releases worthy of any good dancefloor

nation is back!! a double a side release by x2 (house not house) and xxart (the moment). its the usual suspects turning the knobs and pushing the faders again... (traxx, j.t.c. dmarc cantu) for some pure raw jacking house music (or jaking as they say). tracks inspired by the music box in chicago... the legendary place where all heads went back in the days. >the moment< is a simple track with an effective bassline and quick vocals... very playfull! >house not house< is a powerfull sci-fi trip with a robust acid bassline and a blasting ms20 and old schoolish keyboard strings. back to the basics.. back to the music that makes you jak. (dont sleep on this one... limited to 500 copies and no digital downloads!)

as hard as it might be to believe, there was a time when the word trance did not mean dutch guys dressed in white wearing oakleys.. it also didn t mean israeli pre-military dragon-stick wielding reefer addicts.. actually, there was a glorious era where trance was a verb rather than a noun.. im talking about when you got in a trance, at lets say for example: the golden eagle in munich in 81, in a white-tiled sauna-motif discotec, grooving to a 17 minute reel-to reel version of knights in white satin on your 2nd bottle of poppers while some guy named >wolfie< takes his modern ballet skills to the >next level<. if that sounds appealing.. and i know it does.. then allow me to introduce you to compuphonic and kolombo.. a throwback to the days of romance-trance of the highest order. deep, sensual (yes, i used the word sensual) electronic grooves so potent that we were forced by a coalition of competitors labels to only release some of them digitally to restrict their awesome power to trip people out. these tracks make other tracks seem like mindless shallow shit. that includes some of turbos other releases.

luke viberts second album on planet mu brings together many strands of his work, drum and bass, trip-hop, breaks and acid. the album hangs together with the strands of acid, breakbeats, techno and disco at its heart, the reassuring hand of an old master triumphs again

yes! format b are finally back with their second release on stil vor talent. after massive tracks on opposum and highgrade rec, their newest ep on stil vor talent is another huge minimal monster. kongo time is typical for the two berliners: a flickery percussive loop with some stretched out effect envelopes over a wobbly drum n bass style bassline place this track between freaky rave and minimal chic. its definitely going to make you trip out for sure! on the flip its the funky mondo time that builds up over some cuts and bleeps until it leads the listener into pure euphoria when the simple loop kicks in. a huge organic subbass and some chopped-up vocal sample add the funk to this delirious minimal hit and when it comes to minute 4:00 you really won t be able to hold your feet still. format b are at the top of their game and we are so happy to have them!

whilst their debut release i like you is still causing havoc on near by dancefloors, shimon & nixon are proving themselves a force to be reckoned with! the burbling bass of around the edge is destined for sun soaked dancefloors and homegrown festival tents alike. shimons junglist influences are evident, minimal keys sit atop warped synth lines and atmospheric vocals. whitenoise is more the instant club banger, taking a trip to the darker reaches. the omnipotent bassline pulsates its way into your brain and builds to a powerful breakdown then bashing its way back to the jugular

the 2nd part of the >the life we choose< album series starts with >who you gonna call?< the track is built on a melodic 303 acid line, which, followed by two more 303s, results in a complete acid trip. >the life we choose< is compelling, with its 117 bpm electro-groove, strong bassline combined with a hypnotic acid line, right up to the triumphant string finale. >itz ok (club mix)<: sombre, expressive vocals mixed with acid beats make one thoughtful, despite enjoying the whole package in a >hardfloor will survive< club mix! attention! full album cover comes with part 3!

audiojack/solaris heights mixes. fresh from their much lauded remix work on >idiots< for lot 49 and erotic discourse on 20:20 vision audiojack provide us with an unrelenting tech-house workout utilising much of the song in their main mix. also on remix duty are solaris heights fresh from the success of their recent >vice< single on renaissance who use the song and take us on an emotional deep electronic house trip full of melodies and tight grooves

on the genre smashing what she wants, metrics productions have become more assured, as have the range of influences he brings into his music. inspired by everything from jacques le cont and daft punk to his obsession with bad 80s records and krautrock rhythms, metric chops up the beats n vocals here like if he were prince signed to ed banger. slamming tracks like oh percolate with ironic electro pop synths and brash hip hop attitude, while breakin hearts seduces with chunky guitar glitch given the trademark metric acid wash. the e.p.s cheeky power culminates in the title track, what she wants, a squelching dancefloor stormer whose chunky hooks bring rude rock intensity to electronic club thump
