durch das dritte album von kommando elefant zieht sich ein roter faden: das scheitern! in jedem der elf tracks geht es um das große, kleine, tragische, witzige oder einfach grundlegende scheitern.

with local talk release no. 30 we are moving further into territories of straight up no fuss dance floor action. already having releases on dirt crew recordings, murmur & hypercolour elef knows a thing or two about delivering jacking tracks. wake up call comes in two versions. the original version is a kick & snare pattern driven monster track with heavy arpeggios and deep pads. on the flip brennan green doesnt hold back either. the main melodic pattern together with percussions is unleashed straight on and as the tracks evolves he adds tr-303 lines making the track even more epic. as elef described the remix as perfect for a panorama bar set. the remix is worthy enough based on that one side alone.

slammin four track vinyl with excellent disco and deep house stuff...

never not working, elef well deserved has become one of the closest watched talents in the deep house scene. born half greek / half supermodel the berlin based producer has dropped some remarkable releases on dirt crew, murmur and hypercolour. in an act of reciprocal affection elef and carry on joined forces to create the lovely nuff said ep, soon to be available on limited coloured vinyl. the ep kicks off with black hole featuring elefs signature melodramatic chord structure, some quirky percussion and a captivating motown vocal sample. the incredible gerd remix will end up in a lot of record cases, a dancefloor no brainer! on the flip nuff said incorporates an old school bassline with those beautiful emotional chords again. the ambitious uk trio zoo look strips it all back to what deep house really is nowadays, a groovy squarebass and atmospheric pads.

die neue telefon tel aviv ep featured den berauschend schönen album-opener the birds in seiner originalversion und in zwei remixen, wie sie gegensätzlicher nicht sein können: bpc-chefin ellen allien pustet die schwermütigen nebelwolken des originals kurzentschlossen mit einem knackigen housebeat und munteren acid-sequenzen fort. ghostly international-mitbegründer matthew dear hat schon auf seinem eigenen album black city und seinen remixen für die chemical brothers, the xx und the drums eine ausgeprägte vorliebe für sinistre klanglandschaften offenbart. seine version von the birds bewegt sich stilistisch zwischen allen stühlen, verbindet sie doch kongenial singer/songwriter-elemente mit einem athmosphärisch dichten electronica-kontext. als co-autor, gitarrist und seelenverwandter tritt kein geringerer als cocteau twins-mitbegründer robin guthrie in erscheinung - nicht nur für düstere wintertage und kalte nächte der perfekte soundtrack.

nach ihrer first release auf impulsa records nun der zweite streich?feinstertechhouse soundund, welcher die floors wieder zum kochen bringen wird! lets rock:

the tracks on this ep connect detroit and chicago influences to elefs own german roots.

after the great success of the .rst vinyl cosmic cowboys are proud to introduce you back and forths new project >stolen reality / i promised you a ballad< signed by two awesome artists as the german elef and the italian ues. with works on labels as dirt crew, fresh meat and consistent, elef established himself as one of the new talent of the european scene thanks to his particular sound that mix the old-school house tradition with orginality and lot of character creating a perfect mix that youll surely feel on his >stolen reality< as remixer were really proud to welcome the parsian varoslav (supplement facts) that reshapes the original mix into an amazing hypnotic version in that unique way he got know for! absolument formidable! on the b-side here comes ues, one of the greatest italian producers and dj, well known all over europe thanks to his productions on prestigious imprints as resopal, blabla, robsoul and exprezoo just to name a few providing an icredible track full of emotion as the title will suggest you. >i promised you a ballad< is definitely the perfect sentence to describe this jewel of the contemporary house music that could just leave the listener speachless. together with the original mix on this side comes the remix of the danish mathias mesteno (upon.you) designing a fantastic groovy club edit that youll look forward to play.

hier die neue impulsa bombe! mit frischen impulsa artists! telefunk ein project von tommy tischmann & philipp erhart kommt mit treibenden minimal / techhouse sound ? lässt die floors wieder kochen!

already 3 releases strong, consistent continues its deep, grooving house explorations with this very strong ep from young elef, based in essen, germany. already having seen releases on the likes of hypercolour, this latest release from the blossoming producer builds on a solid foundation of crisp beats, energetic percussion phrases and rolling basslines.

the waiting is finally over! after all the ups and downs of the past year, we can happily report that joshua eustis now firmly intends to continue telefon tel aviv as a solo project. in order to mark his decision with a bang, thewonderful title track >immolate yourself< is being released as the second single from the current lp. the song has been entrusted to highly acclaimed and diverse remix artists who have skilfully stripped down the epic album track to more club-friendly formats.
the a side is delivered by label-mate thomas muller, whose finely detailed techno soundscapes can now be enjoyed on five bpc 12 inch releases. his >immolate< remix takes a much more direct approach. he reduces the lush arrangement of the original to a powerful basic framework, leaves out the vocals almost entirely, and creates a surprise when the track crumbles into sonic chaos towards the end.
miss fitz aka maayan nidam has had singles released on labels including raum musik and freak n chic, and these have been remixed by renowned artists such as ricardo villalobos. her version of >immolate< also makes a clear break from the album track and serves up her very own brand of abstract, dancefloor-friendly house. once again, all the opulence of the original is thrown overboard, a dry beat is placed at the centre of the arrangement and enriched with sinuous vocals.
ben klock needs no further introduction - he is the epitome of the bleak, hard minimal sound. his album >one< is currently available on ostgut ton, and as a remixer he has earned the highest acclaim for his version of depeche modes >peace<. bens >jack mix< is fittingly titled and lives up to all the expectations of the name. the track is stripped back to a resounding, hammer-like beat framework - minimised for maximum effect.
bpitch legend sascha funke delivers a surprise with another astoundingly reduced remix, at least by his standards. he turns away from the melodic richness of his current album >mango< in favour of repetitive fragments and an extended arc of tension which will surely make his >immolate< remix a massive after-hour hit.

>immolate yourself< vereint zehn tracks die dem begriff >electro pop< eine neue & zeitgemässe definition für 2009 verpassen. obwohl jeder song eine eigene geschichte erzählt ist das album mehr als die summe der teile. grossartig
