nice price deal !!! ourvision recordings is back and we will now start releasing on vinyl again. support by argy / karotte / alex g / mr. statik to name a few...

appleblim’s third 12&#8243,,, for tempa touches on the sonic territories explored on his first 12&#8243,,, (the experimental and amorphus ‘wandered’ from tempa101) while expanding on those ideas. the first track ‘minus degree’ is appleblim at his most experimental. a beatless affair of sparse soundscapes and atmospheres. full of tension, and crucially no release, you are swept away by the waves of synths and sub bass. next track ‘move them’ is more traditional appleblim - 4x4 and dub techno chords build a sense of momentum over the space of 7 minutes. a traditionally leaning techno tune with a uk twist, appleblim’s use of space and tension will keep any raver entranced. final track ‘twist it down’ rounds out the ep with a subtle roller. broken drum patterns and bright synths help in stripping away some of the darker undertones prevalent in the previous tracks.

following up with the llarose ep by joefarr comes a split ep with different takes on what should make you jack. dar embarks, a duo hailing from chicago lay out two tracks as a precursor to more to come. tracky and acidic spyboss will appease the inner bleep while zeddmore will fit and hit with the heaviest you ve got. johan platt of finland covers the opposite side of this ep with two attacks on jack himself. ranttali is a throwback to armani and acv days of distortion and punch while wailer slows it down and lets the swing fill the space.

nice price deal !!! new comers on the map julien hox & didark.these two young producers offers us a great 2 tracker of progressive trancy electro. will please fans of rpo, loic b, & all the progressive nation.

nice price deal !!! from the beginning, oktored has tried to keep himself away from the pigeonholing nature of the electronic dance scene. seamlessly blending early rave sounds with futuristic beats and melodies, he has really been coming into his own lately. from a young age, he has been into a multitude of different genres of music ranging from ambient to death metal. the next two releases will show just that. the first of which will be the more passive side of oktored.gemini 1 (or the good side) really brings together a feeling of old detroit style techno/house with some new moombahton flavour. the fact that he has been motivated by so many different styles and sounds becomes very apparent on tracks like relax and inéz, while he brings some real deep, future bass styling on the drifter. for fans of future sounds of 8 mile, this release will be a fantastic follow up ep. but that is only one side of our gemini friend. the follow up release, gemini 2 will showcase his darker, more aggressive side. delving into rough, uninhibited bass and beat tracks, oktored will begin to show just how deep his production can go

nice price deal !!! -we think he will be blowing up in the next few months- is what robbie rivera quoted about darryl green. the beginning of 2010 saw darryl start to get into the studio, the first track he produced was veranoa which was signed up by the hoxton whores

nice price deal !!! first & very big release on thomas p heckmanns new partyservice label! a new hope on the horizon for parties around the world, introducing partyservice records !! founded to support new and established artists alike and to provide solid, decent and fun music for the peak time dancefloors ! the artist rooster so far: elco, kiko, jesper dahlb?k, andrey zots, electric rescue aso. !!! the first release is delivered by rico p?tel under his elco moniker who has also had some many great releases and remixes under his real name and dinamoe on labels like schieber, fabulescue, dnb aso. three tracks that that will please every pa and party pretty soon and has already great support by the names that count.

farr has a diverse catalogue, with three well-received releases on turbo as well as records with dsnt, leisure system and power vacuum. few producers can claim to have remixed tiga and been remixed by truss.
though farr has an extensive history with bloc., this will be his first outing on the label, a release that incorporates sounds that both bloc and joe are famed for.
the first track, “rpm” features prominently in the bloc festival trailer and is the soundtrack to the 2016 weekender. hissing high hats and an atmospheric baseline quickly develop into an explosive anthem designed to get feet moving. “rolling and thatching” conveys an immediate punch of 90’s acid, followed by techno heavy “workout three” with crunching beats and an unremitting delivery worthy of the berghain dance floor.

on this last 12inch you will find old & new friends, some good buddies & homies around movida records and they will show you another time their best music. basti grub brings us a new club bomb called >batalistico< as the opener on this ep. our old friend patrizio cavaliere has send us a new track which we love so much and we are sure all >innervisions< fans will love it, too. the guys from gua camole from düsseldorf / germany are well-know and especially on vinyl you will find some rare and exclusive tracks like they did on their own label >gua limited<. their track show you again that typical, phat and amazing sound and will take you on a trippy journey. my good old friend and bro matt star send us a big acid house bomb with the name >aggronaut< which should let you guess what to expect you on this ep. supported by rampa, someone else, stacey pullen, ray okpara, shinedoe, c-rock.

nx1 come back again on their own label releasing the second much anticipated nx1 black. if some time ago they surprised us distancing themselves from their common works and releasing an atypical job that came as a just two tracks ep that was not exclusively dance floor oriented, in this new chapter they repeat the same format showing their most intimate music. nx1 black 02 will be out in 140gr. black hand-stamped vinyl with paper insert.

cocoon recordings presents a freaked out deep techno highlight by two masters of their craft: gregor tresher & petar dundov! especially the a-side spike is a crazy monster and we do not exaggerate by writing that we have never heard something like this by these two masterminds before. mental, hypnotic and with a neverending synth firework that modulates with an endless release effect. the two really pushed electronic dance music at least ten steps further. tresher & dundov second mutual work on cocoon recordings follows with differentiator. the two stick to the basic concept of spike however this time it is the good old arpeggio that keeps on modulating until eternity. differentiator almost flows with a little trance appeal and there is even a cool and driving acid bassline giving us the final push. tresher & dundov present us two massive techno tunes that will definitely play in their own league this season!

10 years redshape live is a special thank you to the labels i mainly worked with in the past ten years and also to all the people on worlds dance floors, which gave me so many stellar moments. starting on running back, the best of live series will contain tracks which were only part of my live set: previously unavailable and not even arranged as full tracks. as i always record my shows, i searched for the moment, in which each of those tracks had their biggest and also earliest impact. i took that recording and rebuild them part by part to make them proper dj versions without loosing their live roots. named after the cities where they were performed. av aviv and rome.

raging fyah is the celebrated five-piece band from kingston, jamaica making their name with retro sounding roots reggae riddims and sweet harmonies. the music is thoughtful and melodic, blending the best elements from groups like steel pulse and morgan heritage. “everlasting” is their third studio album and first with vp records and features busy signal, j. boog and jesse royal! the longplayer will carry the dub rockers imprint - an initiative targeting the growing us reggae live scene that has fostered bands like soja, rebelution and slightly stoopid.

gilesku records is proud to welcome aboard another talented artist to our spaceship, delivering first out of two gems full of adriatic energy that will take us all to another dimension.

first part of cygnus remixes is here. that big track produced by coyu and sezer uysal will have a second life with big revisits.
the first remix is signed by one of the biggest legends of the electronic scene: the mighty john digweed, together with his studio partner nick muir, did a proggy-tech trip with tons of epic vibes.
gabriel ananda has turned the original into a more electronic, sophisticated and special track.
last but not least, coyu did a dub edit from his original cut, focusing the leadership of the track in the bassline instead of the melodies. great names for an amazing package!

for the second elastique music release we could win great artists over to our label. daniel madlung takes it to the next level with an energetic and minimalistic track, which nearly seems to explode. the tunes on the b-side, one by christopher lawrenz and one by nicola koch will certainly move your feet. you’ll definitely cut the rug to these tunes.

it s hard to believe an entire decade has gone by since claude vonstroke first released who s afraid of detroit but believe it or not, we ve reached the 10 year mark of one of the biggest hits of claude s career, and we felt its about time for some fresh takes on the track that helped launch vonstroke and dirtybird. for 10 year anniversary, we tapped into the motor city s outstanding talent pool and enlisted an amazing lineup of detroit artists to help us celebrate. besides claude vonstrokes brand new 2016 remix, we also included mixes from techno icones octave one, minimal techno pioneer marc houle (windsor is close enough!), and the accomplished trio visionquest. not limiting the detroit based artist package to just the music, the haunting release artwork comes to us from michigan illustrator dan may. in addition, a dark david lynch style music video comes from award winning detroit director, anthony ernest garth. whos afraid of detroit remixes,will be released on the 10th anniversary of the movement festival in what city? detroit, of course.

the third release from new imprint dama dama, is another offering from label co-founder pedestrian, following the label’s well-received debut ep - ‘circadian rhythms’ . ‘pick your shots clean’ is a track inspired by this spring’s european dama dama label launch tour, which saw founding members pedestrian & maribou state take to the road, curating bespoke parties with back to back all night dj sets. as ever, the music itself is hard to categorise, but we would say that it sits somewhere between a rugged 90’s chemical brothers track and a 70’s arabian psych-rock record. the flipside - ‘airs & graces’ - serves as a counter-balance (a kind of yang to the ying of the a-side), that picks up where circadian rhythms left off, taking the listener off on a melodic 5-minute trip. currently gearing up to release a new signing in the dama dama camp, the team also have their sights set on the curation of festival stages, more intriguing night endeavors and a new mixtape series, all set for delivery over the coming months. pedestrian now with his sights firmly set on writing his debut lp, will be found at a number of festivals over the summer.

recently appearing on the mighty crosstown rebels with a remix of shaun j. wright & alinka ‘face the truth’, sought after duo audiojack are back serving up a solid two-track release in the form of ‘turya’. turya is built for serious heads down sessions fusing subtle acid pads with soaring synths and sonorous spoken words. the hypnotic quality of the teacher’s words beguiles and entrances the dance floor, allowing people to lose themselves in them and its evolving groove. ‘event horizon’ is a different beast altogether, with a heavy drum and bass vibe, a four-four format, and a classic -amen- break beat style. in 2015 audiojack launched their sunday social free party at veto club in their home of ibiza, which after a strong season will continue this year. their first essential mix recently dropped on radio 1 and a string of highly successful releases and remixes on labels such as hot creations, tsuba, 20/20 vision and their own gruuv has solidified their place in the dance music elite. it’s safe to say that 2016 is proving to be a big year for the talented duo.

the second of this year’s smd singles on their own delicacies label is features another two original tracks, leading with the hypnotic, late night techno loping of “remember in reverse”, drenched in glistening synths. the second track, “soft attack” takes a much more direct approach, with a brash battering of crash cymbals on every 4th bar marking time as a sinuous synth melody curls around the rhythmatic trunk. “soft attack (drum version)” pares it down even further, excising the melody for a minimal dj tool. also included here is a remix of ‘remember in reverse” from 90s mid west techno legend, dj hyperactive, who we’re super excited to have on this release. he extensive 11 minute rework transforms the track, sprinkling it with subtle doses of acid. after a short hiatus following their modular-only, desert recorded last album “whorl”, during which smd s james ford found himself on production duties for everyone and their dog, smd are back with bunch of techno cuts on their own delicacies label. over a couple of months in jas shaw s newly re-located synth-dense studio in leafy kent, which saw smd once again experiment with live jams as the basis for their production, they’ve pulled together a selection of eight tracks for release as a series of four singles over the coming months. smd fans will note that the earlier naming convention of delicacies has fallen by the wayside – for the simple reason that we’ve pretty much run out of weird and wonderful food stuffs to steal names from. instead, a semi-random automated process has been used to create the track names.

featuring frank and dank, phat kat and kareem --- the first on the beat generation release schedule is jay dee who inspired the above panegyric. he is one of the more prominent members of the beat generation. detroit’s don of the beats is widely regarded as one of the most important men in hip -hop alongside pete rock and dj premier. jay dee has prepared for us a feast of beats and pieces. his credentials read like a who s who of hip hop and r&b. jay dee’s slum village project has the dubious honour of being the most bootlegged in history. the recent album, fantastic vol. 2 has received superlative reviews. jay dee produced common’s like water for chocolate (lp) - a landmark album featuring d’angelo, dj premier, rahzel, george clinton and bobby caldwell. the ummah, jay dee along with q - tip and ali shaheed, produced tribe called quest’s last two albums beats, rhymes and life and the love movement. jay dee is the executive producer on the new erykah badu lp. he has recently produced tracks for the new de la soul lp, guru’s jazzmatazz 3, busta rhymes and the forthcoming jay z lp. jay dee was also the driving force behind the pharcyde and virtually the whole q-tip lp. welcome to detroit will feature a blend of jay dee’s unique hip hop and r&b productions, as well as left field twisted instrumentals and jam sessions. a perfect fusion for this phenomenon who is a dj, musician, jazz enthusiast and the hardest working hip - hop producer in the world today.

following the announcement that they’ve collaborated with perma-masked zomby on his upcoming lp for hyperdub, behooded hardware manglers rezzett return to home soil for their latest, and perhaps best so far, 12&#8243,,, for the trilogy tapes. with a very defined, redlining approach to techno and hardcore tropes established across their prior output on will bankhead’s label, the duo demonstrate there is still plenty of scope for invention on doyce. in essence you get two versions of the same track either side of this 12 inch.

blawan’s new side project bored young adults is up next on will bankhead’s label the trilogy tapes. the shy dancers on bungalowdorf beach features some restrained and slow burning techno experiments that differ from jamie robert’s more usual hard-hitting sounds. the seething title track treads the same path as kassem mosse or vactrol park. the fentanyl techno of “but we need this bench” sounds like an old regis record played on -8, while devoted fans of the young uk producer’s sound will get something a bit more familiar on the menacing hypnotic techno grinder “check up from the neck up”.

after some remix projects and a lot of work on their new live set, the next original mix from saitezwei will be released as digital and vinyl release. also for this project, the two guys cooperatedwith the label tach & nacht from hamburg. the song is a mixture of deep and tech house elements with driving drum structures, saite zwei typical harmonies and a lot of variety. despite complex melodies and heavy chords, the entire ep has become very clubby and danceable this time. among other songs, the release will contain a remix of -morja-. the b side comes with an original track by morja called -reborn-. less melody, more groove could be the topic in comparison to his former releases. coming with a tight set of percussion and a phat forward driving bassline, reborn surprises with some contrary played organ sounds adding even more thrust and energy to the tune. definitely a track to remember. the side gets completed by an interpretation of saite zweis -nighting ale-.

in the spring of 2016, detroit’s elzhi (of slum village) will release his highly anticipated album, lead poison. serving as a follow up to the instant classic, elmatic, lead poison is poised to become elzhi’s most desired album to date. made with the help of kickstarter backers, the album features a bevy of producers from 14kt to karriem riggins.

dj python is arguably nyc’s first deep-reggaeton artist. the record starts on the dembow, tricks you into thinking you actually got the deepest-of-the-deep house record on the flip, and quickly snaps back to the rhythm on the last track. dj python says “this will be a huge open-air record.”

swag classics centeres around some sought after reissue fare from the croydons legendary swag records label. these are 2 expensive double a side vinyl cuts - almost unaffordable if bough 2nd hand. so this is a very democratioc re release for fans of the label
(if any)think croydon and a few things come to mind, kate moss, punk band the damned, crystal palace football club, peep show and of course dubstep, the now world conquering music genre that will forever be linked to the south london suburb. what you never hear though, is any mention of tech house, another world conquering music genre. and to be honest we’re a little bit peeved about that. because if tech house has a spiritual home it’s croydon, and that is due mainly to swag records and the people that gravitated towards the humble west croydon record shop and studio.

music: by friends, for friends. i’ll be yours, will you be mine? that’s how we make a family.

-humans are driven to explore the unknown-.. -human space exploration helps to address fundamental questions about our place in the universe-. this ep was inspired by the mysteries of outer space, 3 tracks that will make you move and understand ... vinyl

so wow... jiraffe - out’a the box. well what can i say, when i first heard this record i just melted... on the first few bars and the tempo already was a fav, my ears pricked up and then woahhhhhh... that bass came in and oh god how that went through my whole body and shook me like a thunderstorm... those synths and percussion just left me floored... probably one of the most cherished re-issues that you will buy... don’t know about out’a the box... if you don t already own it, you will and it will be in the box for a lifetime.
