mannequin is sincerly proud to announce the second volume of the much acclaimed italian new wave italian compilation. danza meccanica is the latest, unmissable chapter in the story of italian post punk - the less traditionally rock branch. it outlines the approach taken by ten more or less unknown groups who all deserve rediscovery and to be remembered alongside luckier outfits. ten tracks that spell out the manifesto of a scene fascinated by electronic innovation, a scene that used the sounds coming out of english labels like factory, 4ad and mute as a reference point. the grey atmospheres and raincoats of a still-divided berlin, and those of manchester, which along with sheffield produced sounds destined to inspire future generations of musicians and producers. limited edition of 500 copies, 2 inserts

ahead of a shake it summer residency at amnesia in ibiza, alongside his dj/production partner layo, bushwacka releases his first solo ep of 2011 - the two-track west side / energy ep. westside - this monster is very personal to bushwacka! inspired from the sound of the biggest german techno dj on the planet, sven vath, and the musical magic he wove on the decks over the last ten years in ibiza, bushwacka! has drawn his feeling from this and countless memorable nights there and created a massive dancefloor weapon that has been tweaked and tested around the world. westside creates chaos and euphoria in equal measures and is pure peak time magic. energy is a very different breed of music, again influenced from parties, but this time his own - the morning sessions, the after hours, the dawn chorus - deep, sexy, melancholy, but tough and naughty - this is serious underground tech acid get down dirty music.

from the very start, track one the first thirteen minutes of love opens the album with over ten minutes of ambient unlike anything you’ve heard in years, a long, elegiac composition somewhere between carl craig and the chill-out zone at a bygone rave. it’s a warning: take a deep breath before being swept away by eight tracks that span detroit and berlin, front 242 and carl craig, linking them via soaring trance, carefully-crafted minimal, the sound of the 90s, the sound of the new millennium. it’s hard to imagine the strike force and heart pangs it will inevitably inflict on any club in the know

italian techno heavyweights markantonio and rino cerrone finally name their collaborative ventures after ten years of gigs and productions together, and the name is junction hands. revolution is back is the first full release under the junction hands moniker, following a well received outing as part of the recent the napoli connection ep on adam beyers drumcode and it sees the two veterans deliver some of their strongest work yet. the title track is a pacey number with a reverb soaked yet warm atmosphere which underpins an aggressive, simple and incredibly effective bass/drum loop which gains intensity throughout. sharp sounds puncture the groove here there which keeps things interesting but its the discordant stabs in the break which push things into overdrive. the equally hypnotic and driving thing for hands follows but manages to do so with an increased feeling of woozy menace. synths feedback on themselves to shattering crescendos before subsiding into waves of noise while the groove relentlessly works its magic. with junction hands theres yet another must-check name coming out of the neapolitan scene.
