fierce jacking chicago influenced tracks as only legowelt can do it! very much in the vein of his dx days release with straight forward jacking analogue drum machines, trademark legowelt string sounds and wobbly bass lines.

not content to simply sit back and watch his 1605 baby grow from strength to strength, label head umek makes it a strong point to make regular contributions to our output and so he has obliged with the imaginatively titled >omgwtf< track. a superb new composition from mr 1605 himself, >omgwtf< is everything one can expect from umeks sonic arsenal. funky, pounding, innovative, fresh and a surefire dancefloor mover. if the title is anything to go by, we d say you have been warned!

new label tribal groove emerges from the same southampton school of talent we can be thankful for the likes of james talk & james zabiela. tom budden provides the 1st release.

first on decks.de !! official release date: 15.10.2010. please grab your copy as fast as you can!!!

for bass cultures 10th release d julz welcome back gez varley, aka mr. g. having first worked his recently released >still here (get down)< artist album on rekids, mr. g now makes his full debut on bass culture with the >extended pain< e.p. two devastatingly good originals in the form of >sunday blues< and >jbs< sees the g man revisiting those classic, deeper sounds, whilst delivering the fresh and upfront tastes as only he can. repaying the remix favour for bc003 is esperanza boss and bass culture favourite, kasper. getting to grips with >sunday blues< the madrid man turns the smooth mood of the original on its head. industrial sized beats, blinding rides and a preciously warped synth line, give a whole new face to already beautiful original

the first release will be with the new kid in town: ghost mutt. this young producer from brighton (uk) is linked as resident artist to the people of donky pitch with other residents like boss kite and slugabed. his sound can be, if we try to genre-ize it, defined as a mash-up of hiphop beats mixed with dubstep, covered with glitches, funky tweaks, purple flares and dirty basses. he has been sharing line-ups with tokimonsta, slugabed, blue daisy, boss kite, coco bryce and bass clef.

dj ogi is back! the man with the most devastating kicks in the scene is here to create damage to your system.ogi has been collecting his best tracks for his beast imprint and you can hear straight away. the dj has been testing around the globe and the crowd reactions dont lie! these are straight up killer tracks! matt m maddox jumping in for the remix.. damage!

hers is the most anticipated debut album of 2010 and her name is on everybodys lips. seldom before has a young artist so captivated the attention of a generation that she personifies. >the ultimate it girl<, >the new electro pop sensation<, >totally in tune with the spirit of the times<: these are just a few quotes from her reviewers. the delayed >sex dreams and denim jeans< is finally complete. uffie took her time, for after years of continuous whirlwind she needed to take a step back, put her bags down and concentrate on her writing.

coloured vinyl! i met dwight in the desert of nowhere. we somehow knew we would be there at the moment where it took place. no surprise, i mean the crash. 3 times for them to finally got out of nowhere back into nowhere. while i was playing the flute dwight held a ritual, spreading energy through his voice. after the reboot, they took off immediately (i can swear something happened to the power plant controlà). for us it was like a b-movie, like all never happenedàbut the communication, talking to the spirits from language to language planet to planetàand the wind dont forget the wind. after we came home we wrote this oneà. rjc philpot presents this debut 12inch of the reboot joy confession - our brothers from nowhere! the title track is a mindbending spiritual journey hosting the fabulous dwight trible on some next level beatdown xtravaganca while the flip features the massive disconodisco 1999 and the equally heavy <funkin facets<. àmore than a proper statement and the beginning of the rjc aera!! >thanks for listening and purchasing a real copy!<

futurist techno that needs some time to listen to, but can also surprise you with sound sensations never heard before, even after playing the track a 100 times.

gunnar stiller has always been known for producing dance floor >destroyers<, even if >far from okay< sounds a bit like a floor wax accident theres no need for the timid raver soul to get worried about slipping and falling. soft accords sedate the mind, the bass pumps in the adrenaline and a voice softly whispers that everything is going to be just fine…all you need to do is dance. when the janitor loko mops over the uy 038 floor with his remix you can even walk over it on the highest of high heels. it does in fact, get a bit rougher when the lights go out on >some kind of weird< and the smoke machine goes starts pumping. thats when its >black piste< time and thats no place for heidi klum or techno beginners…but who wants to be a model anyway, right?

field records fourth ep features differentiating interpretations on contemporary techno music by the likes of ohrwert, duplex (!) and delta funktionen. what can we say... another exciting and fresh techno release from the northern parts of the netherlands.

oh! there is one more 12 inch release in the vibes series! the fifth and last ep features 3 tracks by new recording artists from detroit. first up is mark king who gives us an emotive, deep vocal work-out that lasts close to nine minutes… just how we like it, pure soul! on the b-side there is detroiter dj raybone, who teams up with tj as well as rick wilhite for two more deep detroit late night house tracks. what a nice way to finish of this series. deep detroit deep! the b-side tracks are exclusive to this 12inch and wont be on the cd release

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!

bergerac is the new record label set up by uk producer and dj red rack’em (aka danny berman) to showcase the more dancefloor end of his music productions. danny is well known for his wonky disco outings as hot coins on tirk and also his deep as hell beatdown house on untracked. his style of production and djing have recently taken a slightly more banging angle due to the influence of larger scale festival gigs such as glastonbury, snowbombing and the big chill. so it seemed like the perfect time to start a label focussing on house and techno for the more discerning dancefloor. the label artwork will feature bespoke illustrations from german artist silke eiselt of all the houses danny has lived in chronologically. how much more fucking house can you get than that? how i program is a raw, heads down, whacked out banger, which straddles the wafer thin divide between house and techno with aplomb. with a massive loud donking bass noise, seedy late night atmosphere and danny shouting about how he programs his shit - this is some freaky deaky peak time business. next up is bonn, a warm crackly rhodes driven halcyon house moment, which evokes the slightly majestic and nostalgic vibe of people dancing alone together in a hot room at the end of the night. cheering sourced directly from bonn in 1982 mixes with naive keywork and distant female chants the first bergerac ep closes with it happens to us all, which could be an ode to prematurely greying men, the onset of senility or occasional farting in public places. its definitely a prime slice of wrong house with some seriously french hi hats and dubbed out bassline action though. yes, its more syncopated than an exploding castanet factory but thats how we like that kind of funk

>smiling faces< – with this all-time house classic romanto advanced to one of the favourite deejays in the dance and club-scene. this song is still a club stomper in germany and uk, you can still find it on realms of compilations. now his new release on young society records >burning< comes with this well-known fantastic hook including incredible vocals by gordon bad.

a twinkle, a spark, and there you have it. many will say they saw it coming. at some point you could no longer ignore the signs, and actually youd suspected it all along: glamour is back in the club. berlin has become what new york was in 1981 and aÚrea negrot is the eartha kitt of the post-techno age. as part of hercules & love affair, perhaps the most enigmatic disco-ball band of the present day, the venezuelan disco diva has tackled issues of gender code through a four-four discourse and convinced the world that a slick performance under a strobe light can outdo than anything that has appeared in the light of day. now - as a taste of whats to come on her album next year - she is releasing her first ep on bpitch...

the martinez/mesteo remix of the club classic >under the water< is the first leg in a series of remixes to be patiently released throughout 2010 - initiated by one half of the original brother brown outfit, atle, now operating under the moniker one brother. the martinez/mesteno mix has only been sent to a carefully selected handful of friends and family around the world (less than 15 movers and shakers). simply to see if we can give this mix the longestpossible and well deserved (we think anyway) run for itsmoney. please do enjoy!

another brilliant disco/funk edits by sleazy mc queens camp! supported by laurent garnier, ashley beedle, michael reinboth, dj harri, erol alkan, tim sweeney, ben mono, james flavour, nacho marco, atnarko, flash atkins, doc martin

not many single releases can be labelled as events, especially not in the ever homogenised techno world, but the first single from model 500 in eleven years, and the first recorded by the new band line up is most definitely an event.
its only fitting that this single is released on r&s records, whose relationship with the man widely acknowledged as the originator of detroit techno goes back 17 years and who released the last model 500 album back in 1999.

supplement facts records continue their rich run of form by handing a label debut to detroit-native lee curtiss. the >and we all fall down< ep has been one of the most hotly anticipated from the israeli label and is set to become the soundtrack to the last echoes of summer. we continue to dance, as the days grow short our nights become longer and lees ep is the perfect accompaniment….>i can hear you arthur<, a tribute to one of lees long-time music heroes, arthur russell, is an emotional escape. with russell being a direct sound-inspiration for the release, we are treated to a longing for a far away love. with waves of sound that build and cascade, accompanied by pillow-talk whisperings, all creating eight minutes of rhythmic, warm grooves. arthur never sounded better. after the body-swaying vibes of the a, side b brings the perspirec-electronic throb and hip-grinding action of labor of love. after yearning for arthur, we are more than appeased with the beautifully sultry and ever so intimate vocals of stephanie selvaggio. with its rhythmic guitar opening belying its true intention, labor of love develops into a sensual dancefloor cut with stephanies vocals floating effortlessly with the acidic beats as she drives us ‚crazy, and we all fall down is a perfect example of an artist at his most vunerable. its brutally honest sound invites the listener in with open arms and wraps itself around them like a warm cashmere blanket. as the brutal realisation that summer is almost over starts to sink in…its worth taking comfort in records like this, that make the transition that much easier.

repress!! ambivalence is a funny thing. the simultaneous existence of two opposed and conflicting attitudes can cause much confusion and unease. fortunately, it has served to do nothing but help kevin mchugh in his quest to achieve impeccable music productions and attract a global audience eager to hear his unique take on confounding dance floor tracks

yore welcomes ibex to the yore family. tony ollivierra aka ibex, who is no stranger at all to the world of detroit house music, known for his outstanding releases on carl craigs >planet e< or his hot gems on 3rd ear and rushhour, returns in full effect on our 26th release. here he brings us four tracks, so deep (and yet grooving without a doubt), unique and full of class, that it still leaves us simply speechless. the music on this ep is so rich and full of musical ideaÆs, like we havent heard it since a very long time. one can tell you need history and expertise behind to drop something like this and ibex sure has what it takes. hes been releasing high quality house music since early 2000 and has been touring as a dj since the mid nineties, which all you can sense in his music. this is one of our personal favourite releases so far and we can only strongly recommend to get your copy while they last. killer ep not to be missed and already a classic today!

bosco delrey is at once a thick combination of influences and a totally unique voice in current music. diplo describes him as >a sort of garbage can elvis from new jersey... teaspoon craziness, a pinch of rockabilly, and full cup of soul dressed in a leather jacket. he cant be topped as far as song writing... hes doin the music i wish i could if i had bought a guitar<, the fader called his song >round n round hillbillyhall, and boscos own myspace says >jerry lee lewis carol king of pop<. but whatever you call him, bosco delrey is making music that is instantly accessible, totally cool, and unlike anything else on our wide-sweeping mad decent radar.

reyf (aka suedmilch) & eidner collaborate with some real musicans to discover the boarders of jazz, dub, house and techno and make their own smokey interpretations.

after 3 years of long and painfull waiting our firiend jichael mackson is now back on musique risquee with 2 new great songs that we are happy to present here with this new release entitled just in time . on the a side locus pocus is what you can call a hard edged hypnotic techno track: loopy, bleepy, trippy and squiddly diddly. the b side, entitled sugar hill mountain, is what you can call a deep, warm and moody ambiant song: shiny, airy, velvety and mushy gushy. check it yourselves. its really worth the listening as it was worth the waiting.

kevin m. kennedy aka fbk is escaping. escaping from the everyday struggles of life in columbus, ohio, usa. one of his escape routes is his music and when you listen to his tracks you can feel why. his music is emotional to the core, no matter if its powerful and heavily funky techno such as >flying hybrids< or dark and sinister straight electro like >chosen path<. every single sound and rhythm is pure fbk and will cause a frenzy on the dancefloor. having released on shakes frictional label as fbk and on detroit based label xplor as the sleep engineer, kevin is not a newbie in the techno circus. diametric. is proud to release the first new record from the expert escapist since 1997. why he remained below the radar for so many years is a mystery. fbk will have further upcoming releases on frictional soon. no digital distribution. limited to 320 handnumbered copies. save the vinyl.

return of the detroit beatdown edits series! limited edition

great 1985 synth-pop / new wave album by abc. b-stock items, because cover with incision (as you can see on the cover pic - b side)

to share and to increase the love, to let the soul speak through the music, is a feeling which can hardly be described with words. with ôloving , i want to embrace the whole world, because this journey to the origins of electronic dance music in between modern detroit, high tech soul and house is coming from the very bottom of my heart.ö (johannes heil, 2010)

a drum roll announces the arrival of swiss artist and producer andri to the highgrade family. and the drums are something we can take literally, as the regular player on the zurich party scene experimented for seven years with his own drums.

few artists can lay claim to such a continuous output as bpc resident joakim ijäs, better known as kiki. for kiki, continuity also means permanently developing his musical vision - his superb second album kaiku is testament to this. the current 12 inch >cinema obscura< follows on seamlessly from us house traditions, yet also reduces them to absurdity with its atmospheric density and sonic extravagance.

finally, the live virtuoso olene kadar is back again with release #4 on his homebase mos ferry! not only the really massive kick makes the a-side >deal< a true stomper, that might put a smile on every detroit fans face also a guy called gerald would be thrilled! kadar uses common sounds and styles to stack his own unconventional sound-building - his own >house<. driving is probably the adjective that can express most accurately what constitutes the eight and a half minutes track with its funky organ chords. the b-side >sot:2< contains an equally virtuoso ass-shaker. somewhere between industrial aesthetics of the reverberated snare and the indefinable squawking sound its elements combine into a multi-dimensional piece of >club therapy< full of extremes. the unity of groovy kick and bass constitutes a high contrast to the vast extending percussion that moves at times in dramatic and absurd dimensions. approaching the drop, the almost out of control snare rolls and percussion drown any crowd in their own sweat dripping from the ceiling.

in classical geometry, the triangle is the simplest polygon. the one which can be used to construct all other polygons. the root of them all. three points define a plane in space. thus resulting in the phenomenon that a tripod always has a safe and solid stand. three musicians teamed up to produce the triangle peul. in addition to the well known mr raoul k rollercoaster ride through moods from contemplation to euphoria, producing as part of a team adds a new dimension of dialog to his work. itÆs no longer just the communication between him and the audience, this time the communication that happened during the production process shines through. the fun, the deep concentration and the energy that everyone felt and committed is recognisable for the audience with ease. unsurprisingly, the triangle peul comes in three different mixes including a drum laden beatstramental for those who still like to mix.

a special selection classic tracks from 15 years kosmo records !!

you need the beat of mimique. on our first publication you can hear the driving beats, warm female vocals and harmonious melodies in the breaks always touch your heart. including andy kohlmann remix!

dj nature is just passed the 30 year mark in his dj career, a number that few jocks can match. better known as dj milo, he got his start as part of bristol s wild bunch alongside nellee hooper and daddy g.

good guy mikesh is well known for his track -milk & honey- which was on the fabric 51 by dj t. and formerly released by liebe*detail spezial. with the single spare, good guy mikesh proves his talent for contemporary club- and popmusic. a rough and sometimes dark baseline layer underlines the magnificent detuned vocals. spare is a song that can enchant us listeners either in the club context or at home. remixes come in courtesy of christian löffler, axel boman, marbert rocel and mano le tough. christian löffler gives the original his trademark sound and makes it a melancholic piece of deep techno. axel boman is going straight to the floor with his remix of spare. adding clubsuited sounds and clicks this makes it a deep house version of the original for the djs to play out loud. marbert rocels version of >spare< is a playful one, the disco elements and the added sax line gives the track its distinctive sound of marbert rocel . mano le tough adds a few synth-lines to the original and makes it good for both: homelistening and club. supported by: marquese, tristen, john roberts, soul clap, dj sneak, lexy, tobias thomas, paul loraine, m.a.n.d.y., anthony collins, paulo olarte, alex tepper, butane, ripperton, nuno dos santos, milly de mori, sven tasnadi, eddy richards, nooncat, guy j, david keno, murat kilic, jesse rose, simon beeston, someone else, patrick zigon, chris lattner and elektrosalz
