guerrilla soul is amir alexanders deeper alter ego. his first official release under that moniker is a tribute to elizabeth short, the black dahlia. she was a victim of los angeless most notorious unsolved murder back in the late 40s. deep, dark, moody, and emotive vibrations evoke a feeling of wistful melancholy. amir comes with 2 different perspectives of the same theme one on each side of the record. rhythmically moving with lush pads and a minimalistic, yet succinct bass line. deep and super deep are the flavours du jour

as house continues to take its stronghold over techno, even in berlin the epicentre of all things minimal, we gear up for a summer of ‘actual’ dancing over regimented arm pumping and head nodding. having impressed laurent garnier, m.a.n.dy, solumun, karotte, tg (tim green) and ellen alien last year with his collaboration with enzo elia, martin patiño caught the attention of true to form with his fresh, playful approach to house and techno and hypnotic percussive elements .born in italy, but with south american roots and now living in berlin, you can hear vibrant audio recollections seeping onto every groove. citing dali’s surrealist paintings as another creative reference (a nod to which is contained in the track title ‘the tempation’), you could say martin draws on the atypical compared to your average electronic producer.the result is the blissful simplicity of ‘sundays’ on the a side, percussive, sundrenched and a perfect am terrace lifter.on the flip side is peak time tech house groover ‘the temptation’ and a hypnotic, dub heavy remix of black dahlia (the original of which will appear on the digital only release) produced with long term cohort enzo elia. true to form, now in its 5th year, showcases tracks and remixes from such respected producers as pan pot, gavin herlihy, jesse rose, samim, pascal foes, mikael weil, justin maxwell, claude von stroke, subjekt, tom ellis, leif and more

nicholas returns to church with a six track mini lp. correspondant welcome berlin duo hinode having established themselves with a string of well received cuts on their own science fiction imprint, they were spotted by chance by label boss jennifer cardini on a recent record-shopping jaunt. with a raw, no-rules sense of machine funk running through everything they create, they’re the perfect match for correspondant and make their label debut with four numerical delights. i lights the analog fire with raw sleaze and off-beat mischief. unkempt and wily, it sets the tone for the entire ep: ii writhes snake-like with its slinky kicks and purring textures, iii slurs with bass groans and shakes with paranoid, alien melodies while iv closes with much more of a tunnelling, sense-blurring experience. total machine harmony, unbounded synthetic creativity, made to mix and wholly outer-planetary. hinode and correspondant are a match made in the stars.

golden age thinking was previously a three part, split lp but the three tracks featured on golden age thinking were to be an additional footnote to the project before the complete lp was released as a whole package digitally in june this year. written just before martin passed away in late-2012 the tracks featured on this, the 12 release, are the sort of timeless house music the duo shared a deep love of and the decision to release them was taken by giles and martins father.

rekluse, the new label from excentrics fergie and henry von, is continuing to gain momentum and followers very nicely indeed. after the umek >2nd to none< smash that just wont go away and the carl cox cained >propaganda< comes the >dude people ep< from one of france s most consistent electronic producers to date, kiko. international dj gigolos, afu, confused and datapunk are just some of the esteemed labels kiko has released on previously. his rekluse outing heads down the more accessible techno route with all 3 tracks sure to find their way into a wide variety of top jocks sets. the first 2 tracks are driving monsters, >dude people< with its continuously sinking bass line and >black dahlia< with its intense percussion arrangement. the ep is brought to a dramatic close with >such erotic< which has electronic anthem written all over it
