future house, funky, dubstep, techno whatever its called i think its safe to say, a corker. possibly the best yet. 3rd release on build, great support from sinden, jackmaster, redlight, mungos hi fi, modeselektor, mista jam, mary anne hobbs, mj cole, drop the lime, and telepathic support from martyn.

reference (planet e / echospace / beretta) consists of the detroit-based artists luke hess & brian kage. in the first reference vs project we squeezed some of the party out of seth troxler and some of the percussion expertise from ryan crosson to create the still sought after tracks >the fade< and >the bumps<. in the second installment of our reference vs series we wanted to get a bit more soulful, & deep with the music, and highlight two of the worlds finest dub techno artists - stephen hitchell (cv313) and marko furstenburg (surphase). stephen hitchell aka cv313 is first a sound engineer. his experiments with synthesis create a warm, ethereal, and organic analog sound all his own. in the reference vs projects we seek to extract the natural strengths of the artist. when we received the files from stephen we knew we were packing heat! we structured our zone around the life-like chord structure that cv313 so effortlessly creates and gave it some more dance floor flavor. we believe the track titled >the wake< will fill dance-floors over the summer months on the beach as well as in the clubs. what can we say. markos shuffled dub stab style has been in demand since the artist started releasing on thinner back in 2002. mr. fürstenbergs deep and emotional music is an extension of his character. we were happy to receive what we expected from marko, super percussive, cavernous, and soulful soundscapes. again we referenced the package out with some drones, new analog rhythms, and eureka. the zone continues relentlessly in >the swell< to carry the dancer through the night into another summer day in the sun

limited edition one sided 10inch. a tune. and a voice. and a simple choice?. be my husband and ill be your wife. i can hear it playing in clubs from newquay to east fife. >what is that?< they say, >i know that, im sure<. but theyve never heard it played like that before. its all about the drop, let the music talk the talk. no one ever gets paid. never run before you can walk. and its all about the music, love the trouble, love the strife. because i will love you for the rest of my life. busted by:(the tea drinking) scruff,(the diminutive yet mighty) geiom,( the masked wonder that is) sbtrkt

another brutal speaker assault from the coinop camp! voted the worlds greatest label ever (repeatedly) by channel 4 viewers. nan-bangin says it all really - yet again the coinop massive (led by general mustard gunn) freak our minds and bootys with this, a very london affair....other than that theres not a lot to say for a label that has everyone hooked but our office highlight has to be the brilliant kanjis brand new vip remix of his own previously huge coinop track >drive you crazy<

the 8th studio album by jay-z, released in 2003, shows the man at top of his game, old-school and modern, constantly re-inventing himself. produced with rick rubin, timbaland, kanye west, the neptunes, just blaze, eminem and more.

mauro picotto returns with the first selection of tracks from his eagerly anticipated new album >2010<. on >delicious< we are treated to the melodic mauro. warm, sweeping synths, bright keys, breakdowns, gentle grooves and soft vocals are all present here. next one is >arrival<, a groovy track with a real landing airplane sound, recorded at ibiza airport. turning to the dark side, we have >cold blood< and >2010<. icy, precise and industrial sounds are paired with forceful beats and devastating snare rolls. a superb selection and one that wets, dare we say drowns, the appetite for the rest of the album!

naming your first release after your band is an auspicious way to introduce oneself, to say the least, but birds & souls have done just that-and the results more than live up to their sensational packaging. birds & souls lead single >birds & souls< (from the debut birds & souls ep on spectral sound) is an exuberant track built more for rock shows than dancefloors, charting a journey from giddy, congas-and-claves house to synth-drenched space disco to ecstatic arpeggiated bliss and back again.

we present the first in a series of re-issues with >a deeper ground ep< by repeat orchestra, originally released in 2000. needless to say, it sounds no less fresh ten years later. the four-track ep is the work of stefan schwander under the repeat orchestra name. in his repeat orchestra work, schwander distills the finest elements of detroit techno and chicago house into a sleek hybrid that honours its roots while casting its gaze upon the future.

love letters from oslo starts with the 013 in the year 2010 and presented us with johnny d and sascha dive two producers of the special kind. after his sexy and playful house track >point of no return< released by oslo does johnny submitted us a title that fascinate the listener completely through his extraordinary percussive and impulsive composition, and it granted a look behind the scenes in the literal sense. kamkama by sascha dive follows on the b side, a no less to underestimated title. this track is distinguished by its deep bass line, intensified by atmospheric chords.so one can only say an ep, which let you be full of pleasant anticipation for the next spring season.

acid and techno tracks from the files of mauser. he is straightup representing chicago techno that moves heads and dancefloors.
blackman: begins with a jazzed out acid house beat and progresses into a journey of ryhthms. the appregiated melody lines, bring out your inner jack as the acid lines sneaks up on you so sweetly. yes, i m jacking to the pulse with the four on the floor!
dancin: previously released on the digital only >jack pulse ep< (synapsis002), dancin is built on a melody line that constantly filters together with sparse sounds and vocals that say, dancin. what an acid banger, seriously you will start dancin.
binary: a video game synth is abundant in this track, mauser turns this sounds into a jacking melody. i m appreciating this chicago techno story. bounce, bounce, bounce.
regenerate: says, >time for the techno beatdown<. mauser shows us his love for techno as regenerate moves and bangs.

jamie jones and lee foss much admired hot natured production project expands into a new label series of original material - hot creations – whose debut release from the wunderkind jamie jones is the simply stupendous >ruckus< ep.

aniligital music is back at it with anthony mansfield and tal m. klein and their evil ways! building upon the successes of their previous collaborations, the villainous duo raises the stakes and take things deeper with this enigmatically titled three tracker. ciento ocho is spanish for 108, the tempo of the first track on the ep. a creepy crawly builder with 8-bit roots that culminate in a huge funk breakdown with an insidious bass hook (if you have any doubt,just fast forward 3 minutes into the track) next up is desayuno en timpanis which we think means breakfast at timpanis in spanish. needless to say this ones heavy on the percussive elements, including of course lots and lots of timpani drums. desayuno en timpanis gets going pretty quickly and doesnt let up. check the flanged upright bass breakdown for extra bigness! purely non-stop huge sound system busting dancefloor action. speaking of floor fillers, have we shown you our tiger bomb? bomba de tigre is the definitely the deepest track on the ep, but lest anthony and tal rest on the laurels of their 808 kicks and 303 basslines, this tigre is a stalking beast that explodes in a vicious classic house attack!

fat! records are back! this, my friends, is jolly spiffing news – especially when they return with something as resoundingly large and summer-specific as this uk funky-tinged number from foamo. carnivalesque mischief abounds as horns and infectious afrobeats weasel their way through the mix of whistles and bass on >centavo< while >jookie< takes things even further south of soa paulo with an epic horn fest doest dissimlar to unitedeyess >sambana< if you can remember that far back. to say welcome back would be an understatement. idj mag review 10/10 and top tune feature! rob da bank played foamo >jookie< saturday on radio 1. mistajam drops “centavo” on bbc 1xtra 17.03.10

nice price deal !!! >a night on the wonk< is on an experimental tip with highly addictive horn and chime hooks. the gemmy remix takes the chime section, gives it some of the well known purple treatment and turns it into a highly distinctive but slightly sickly intro. i say sickly but thats perhaps because i have listened to it a lot of times in a fairly short period of time. however we are then treated to a bleepy roller with moderate variation to keep things interesting. this makes it perfect for an early set or casual listening. >detached reality< crackles its way through some haunting vocals and evil guitar riffs creating a tense but soothing atmosphere ? detaching you from reality, sinking you into your seat while your mind starts to play tricks with itself. what are we really here for?

the latest addition to the miasmah roster is oslo based musician fns aka fredrik ness sevendal. a veteran of the oslo experimental scene, sevendal has been associated with several bands over the years: del, slowburn and kobi. additionally his previous work has involved collaborations with makoto kawabata (acid mothers temple), mitsuru tabata (zeni geva, marble sheep), mark francombe (ex-cranes guitarist), and bill wood (1/3 octave band).

fresh & ltd repress !! mark murphy is a jazz singer legend. he started in the late 50is, ruled the 60is and his records are a hipsters must have since the 70is. then he came to fame again when one gilles peterson got him into dingwalls in the late 80is and japanese producers united future organisation made murphys version of stolen moments (he wrote the lyrics) really big. recently he releases his second album love is what stays on verve (germany), produced by famous german trumpeter till brönner. another famous german producer, yes its henrik schwarz, touched the original track with its deep vocals and full orchestrra arrangement and created the ultimative fusion of jazz and the recent deep house sound from berlin. extremly tasteful. you will never heard strings, wooden brass, and such deepnees of murphy featured in the recent clubcontext but will do thanks to henrik schwarz. different to many others this remix gets released right after being finished in henriks studio so you can say this is the sound of the moment

big with: anthony collins, daniele papini, timo garcia, kaiserdisco, remerc, cristian varela, karotte, acquaviva, ante perry,... nicole moudaber, selected by cox & digweed for a guest mix in 2008 & 2009, and hand picked by carl for a slot next to him in space in 2009, the big boys have all got their ears pricked for what will come next. her releases have appeared on viva music, plastic city, arearemote, intacto, yellow tail .... she has remixed gorge (8bit) and adam sheridan among others. for the new ep on yellow tail she got together with smokin jo, her older production state of mind, was championed on radio 1 and released on distrakt records.

wurst kicks off the new decade with reade truths auspicious debut for the label. the longtime techno vet - he of strictly rhtyhm and sonic groove pedigree - turns in quite the heady offerings. >lets go to heaven< is a brooding, electro-fueled, and dare we say, sleazy affair. perfect for building the night up or taking it down, horizontal dancing style.

guy gerbers supplement facts records is proud to present sundowna by till von sein. when we say sundowna we are paying homage to the idea of embracing the spring & sun with open arms. the sundowna ep will defrost your minds and hearts with its warmth and soul. with his first ep on supplement facts, we are extra pleased to welcome till von sein to our family of artists. the ep is filled with a solid remix pack of surprises - next up, after after the title track, we are equally excited to welcome >joeski< to the label family with a housey retouch to >sundowna<. and to complete the vinyl release we managed to team up with our label hero dyed soundorom, while he pairs up with yet another newcomer to the label, >shonky< - bringing more of a dance floor banging retouch of the title track to the package.

jay haze aka fuckponys superb ode to love in general and loved-up ravers in particular provides us with another sparkling gem: the second single from his current lp has the equally romantic and revealing title >i m burning inside<. it allows us to clearly feel that love-fuelled power, but never lets us get close enough to the fire to get seriously burned. jays sound is simply a tad too cool for that. despite all the emotional appeal, he always keeps a wink in store to save us right at the brink. the remixers reboot and paul ritch give far more obvious signals. both of them say loud and clear: dance!

kurbits 004 marks the return of dan andrei who brings the romanian dirt with two dusty, percussive techno tools. first out on the label side is ramble on, an old school house rhythm. driven by a shaker in a jacking groove and topped off with a rambling vocal about nothing at all, because after all these vocals about >house music<, whats left to say? just put the track on and get the groove on! four sticks on the info side is a straight up techno banger built on a rolling house groove. no funny business, just a sublime percussion workout with little but essential hints of melody to let you catch your breath, then straight back to the groove! we sincerely hope youll have as much pleasure with these tracks as we are. well be back soon with new and exciting rhythms. happy mixing!

well ok, no rule without exception... this beautiful joint from johannes albert is a little web 2.0 fairy-tail: the white rookie & cratedigga no. 1 moomin found a youtube clip of a dj hammering a super-deep, rough piano track in a club in the german city of paderborn. he didnt know the track, so he sent the dj a mail asking and a few mails later, the tracks from johannes were blowing away mr. offermanns ears. so the labelhead decided to make this the next white. of course first of all johannes & oskar had to meet a few times to make sure they understand each others vision well and after a few meetings they eventually became friends. so the labels movement towards the direction of house is continued by this release. wooden pearls is pure housemusic to the core. very wooden & grounded in the lower spectrum and crystal clear up in the sky. these very honest and timeless tracks tell us a story. the story of johannes alberts passion for house. since he was 15 years old, he is a fan. from the german franconia he follows house throu his local recordstore >swing king<

score another one for the dubline team. shadow law head honcho mayhem racks up a sick sick release here thatll tickle fancies all over the place... sensi is one thats loaded with sub.. and when we say loaded... we mean loaded... this is one of mayhems best bits yet! the spacious vibe and chest rattling sub is one to look out for. backed up with tristate and this 12 just gets better and better. another subbass rattler but with some hidden wobbles aswell! one of mayhems best dubstep bits to date!

when casting a weary eye towards the impending chill of winter, its important to remember that the choice of company kept can greatly affect the way in which one wiles away the long gray hours. in this case, we didnt even need to look further than our own backyard. enter deep techno masons, donor/truss. made up of greg schappert of brooklyn and tom russell of wales, their collective efforts have seeped into the consciousness of world class djs, producers and fans of uncompromising techno music through releases on synewave, miniscule, dilek, and dumb unit. with this, their first ep on thema, they have begun expanding their signature sound. the heady claustrophobia we’ve come to know and love has opened up just enough, spurring a graceful and startling evolution. we also would like to say that we re very happy that themas first release for the year 2010 is, in part, from local nyc based talent. mr schappert has been a big supporter of this label for quite sometime and to have him and tom step onboard is just about the best way we can think of to start the new year. the future is here, welcome 2010!

music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. the air in the performance is sculpted into something. - frank zappa. first before we start talking about our first release in our new serie called sculptures we would like to say to you what is it all about. sculptures is a special 5 part serie symbolicaly representing 5 years of existence of jesus loved you label that is coming up this year. it will be consisted of 5 different releases with a new fresh approach to music that will our label represent, with a warmer twist shaking grooves. basically how we would say, tracks that we heard and love to have them on vinyl.

after the release of lindstroems critically acclaimed solo album where you go i go too, in 2008 and 2009s collaborative album with prins thomas, ii, norways maestro of disco returns once again. this time he teams up with sultry vocalist christabelle, to bring us real life is no cool, an edgy pop album of structured chaos and hypnotic beats.

already supported by etienne de crecy, crystal method, acid jacks and more!
this vinyl comes in special limited white edition. needless to say, all tracks come in ipunks accustomed banging electro style!

a1 this classix gets the remix treatment by daniel bovie & roy rox!! massive hit! a2 huge track being in a massive john dahlback remix! b1 phonat sounds like a real daft punk record! avicii on remix duties! b2 2 dirty gets support from tiesto need we say more ?

just in time to warm the winter months up north (and soundtrack some seriously dreamy summer nights down south) comes a very special remix package for mirko lokos album >seventynine<, featuring three certified legends of house and techno: carl craig, ricardo villalobos and cadenzas own master of ceremonies, luciano. and when we say >very special<, we mean it: these are big tunes with a deceptively subtle touch, and their sleight-of-hand moves are going to turn all types of dance floors upside down.

after the success of >mostro<, the french wonderboy play paul - mainly known for his works on kitsune, gigolo (>lalaland<) and craft music - is back on absolut freak records with >9am<. the ep starts with a massive remix by the german sensations disco trash music (freshly signed on the label) which will smash your head, until the break... everybody say yeah! back side, the most exciting turkish band gooseflesh is also back on absolut freak (after their remix of dro & lodzys >now yet now< on the af13) with a powerful version in their own style. a killer! then, the original version by play paul takes you to a lovely journey, with a warm melody for melancholic mornings. you can enjoy the artwork made by the incredible falk klemm from the german collective the zonders. get freak!

fresh 2010 repress !! maybe silent servant (aka john mendez) has been at the coloured sweeties and fizzy pop, as the two tracks for >negative fascinations< are decidedly more upbeat than offerings on his previous three sandwell district releases, or indeed his own historia y violencia label. that s not to say that they are exactly cheery though - the string-like drones of >discipline< will doubtless send a shiver up the spine of many a raver - but >demonstration< certainly ups the tempo by a notch or two compared to the much deeper flavours that we have become accustomed to. an accomplished enhancement of his production, whilst remaining true to his trademark textured sound...

mixes by andrea t mendoza vs steven tibet, luca cassani, gambafreaks vs baby bitcher and holly vs mappa!

jack is back you could say, but he has never really left us. far from it, jack is the godfather of all less productions. modern oldschool house maybe? jeazon its >your deal<, is the real deal, beacause the mood of this track is driven by the vocals which was seemingly recorded in the deepest chicago underground. talking large noising the track is most fun on the dancefloor.
>its not the same< is the candy for the costumer, a potential tech-house hymn, seldom before house vocals were so well arranged with a techno track and merged to a neurotransmitter pushing sound impression.
the enliven deep acoustics remix foils the whole thing with the desired portion of funk and is showing perspectives, jack would have appreciated.

mit africano piano schliessen cosmic cowboys an den erfolg ihrer letzten veröffentlichung auf dem hamburger label musik gewinnt freunde an. die ep kommt im januar 2010 in die läden und erneut zeigen uns die beiden jungs aus venedig, wie schön techno mit einer note dub klingt. die a seite öffnet mit einem deepen track, der sich zu einem intensiven peak hochschraubt, und durch ein episches vocal besticht. auf der b seite befindet sich mit >say that you will stay< ein ruhigeres, aber nicht minder schönes stück. liebesverlockungen gleich spielen sich diese tracks mit harmonischen piano klängen und sanften streichern in unsere herzen. eine großartige ep für lange wintertage.

the yore captain returns to his own yore imprint on the labels 21st release. shadow city presents different visions of funky house grooves. the a sides the y theme gets deeply moving with a funky house pulse before stoking the fire with the addition of speaking voices (trippingly intoning the q&a what are we doing this for? and the music), a move which single-handedly jumpstarts the track. after the voices appear, the grooves intensity escalates and plunges deeper, its gyroscopic house swing becoming more dizzying and torrential with each passing bar before coming to an acidy storming end. in its opening moments, shadow city opts for a deeper and more serenading vibe by comparison, but thats traded in for a slinkier attack at the three-minute mark that grows progressively more ferocious as the track makes its drastic upwards ascent. a trippin dangerous murder weapon to say the least. watch your heads! the b sides b2 track, mumbai dweller keeps the focus primarily on the bottom end, specifically a strutting tribal-house funk groove thats dragged even deeper by a throbbing bass undertow, adding dark chords to it, giving this ep a darker feeling towards the end. to sum it all up: this is raw house music at its best!

we say this every year but pop ambient 2010 is a defining moment for the series - a change in pace but a familiar face for those that have been yearning for our annual remedy. enjoy. the vinyl version contains a free cd of the album !!!

remake musique volume 4 heats the house with smooth 4 tracks by cez & ray, sam clarance, bruce wayne and collint eastwood.

hello and welcome to the new decade. we are kicking off the 10s with a smash from the 00s - as a hinge between the decades, so to say. adas >lovestoned< was everybodys favourite track from her fabulous >adaptations< album, a milestone of romatic techno with vocal support by raz o hara. one of this songs biggest admirers is president bongo of gusgus fame. together with jack shidt he forms the dynamic duo gluteus maximus which already caused a stir with their amazing remix for sigur ros >gobbledigook< on kompakt pop. their lovestoned remix is astounding, too. sex, modern, efficient without losing one gramm of soul. the flipside is taken care of gui boratto who is never far away when techno meets pop in such a sensitive way. his remix makes all great things from the original a bit greater and its pushing the romance factor to the max.
great job, comme d habitude!

tiger supported by... rob da bank, kiko, markus kavka, mihalis safras, justin berkovi, ivan smagghe, orde meikle... moonbeam are back on traum! the russian brothers had a great year and have been voted as one of the top 100 djs worldwide by uk dj mag, in december 2009. we think they are wonderful, dedicated people who really deserve winning this award. with their new a-side track >tiger< moonbeam show their timeless quality and their deep knowledge of music, writing a seemingly simple but gigantic track. if you want to express in words what this track is like you might say it is a hybrid of joe beltrams >energy flash< fuelled with a melodic note and a lot of post-techno feeling. creating a revival of rave which so many people speak about, but so few actually reflect in theirproductions! the energy of this dark monumental new school acid track is counteracted by the two tracks on the flipside >land of the lost (strict mix)< and >zoo<. the b1-track >land of the lost< sounds like a soundtrack for a film set in a ghost-town in the midwest of the united states. a track that travels like a camera does... through different rooms of a deserted mansion. the b2-track >zoo< is the beat track of the record. it relies on its cool driving sequences and the hypnotic feeling it creates through them. adding small changes here and there that keep the track constantly going.

multi-platinum producer, prolific hit-maker, and sonic innovator timbaland will release his third solo album, entitled timbaland presents shock value ii, on vinyl lp, on december 8th, 2009, on mosley music group/blackground records/interscope records. the album is the follow-up to the super-producers multi-platinum 2007 album timbaland presents shock value, which spawned three no. 1 pop singles, the grammy-nominated >give it to me< (featuring nelly furtado and justin timberlake), >the way i are<, (featuring keri hilson and d.o.e.), and a remix of onerepublics multi-platinum blockbuster >apologize< (one of the best-selling singles of the decade).
on shock value ii, timbaland re-maps the pop/r&b landscape by batting away genre boundaries once again. his prodigious influence and ability to stay ahead of the curve have meant that a wide range of todays most popular artists are eager to participate in the shock value series. this second iteration features guest appearances from justin timberlake, katy perry, miley cyrus, the fray, chris daughtry, nickelbacks chad kroeger, brandy, drake, and keri hilson. in addition, timbaland asserts the wide-screen sonic adventurousness that has led the virginia beach native to dominate the pop charts for more than a decade.

in typical, generous 1605 fashion and by way of early xmas gift, we are very proud to present a small yet epically proportioned package of selected past tracks released on the label, expertly reinterpreted by some of our most esteemed in-house artists!
as one can imagine, the talent on display here is overwhelming and the productions themselves cover an extensive range (yet always retaining our beloved, particular brand of techno) of styles, while simultaneously giving new lease of life to some of our most successful and recognizable tunes in our ever growing catalogue! enjoy responsibly, use wisely and dont say we dont spoil you!

warehouse find . brand new release from levon vincent on his own novel sound label. limited edition, stamped white labels. this is a hot, hot 12 inch and we absolutely love it!!! a handful of releases on novel sound, decontruct music and his simply amazing recent remix for clone have forced everyone to recognize one of the biggest talents to come out of new york in recent years - levon vincent. >double jointed sex freak< is a dirty, stomping three track ep with deep and dubby elements, rough house beats and vocal repetitions that even remind us of some old chicago jack trax. needless to say this is highly recommended. tip!
