fantastic twins, the solo artist formerly known as the twins, has always carried an air of transmutability - not only in a name creating its own hall of mirrors, but also in a constantly fluctuating sound, from the first spoken word interludes recorded as the truly fantastic dessagne twins from saint-etienne (for the pachanga boys’ infamous “we are really sorry” album) to myth-building solo releases on hippie dance and optimo music, as well as style- bending remixes for la mverte vs capablanca, moscoman and – most recently – fellow hippie dancer rebolledo.

the third of march’s trio of py 45s, is a revisit to the always enjoyable dark electro world of berlin’s mighty detox twins.
the new record offers up a pair of killer synthpop gems which, in the words of the bands’ mark vorderhaus “drift into the arena of the unwell with their latest outing “in the hospital garden”, and pose the curious questions: is it so unfortunate to surrender your mind to a permanent altered state? can losing oneself irreversibly to a manipulated insanity, actually prove to become a rare and wonderful freedom? attraction battles control as the transformation completes itself. the b-side, “transformation” depicts the liberated insanity without challenge, now thriving and pulsating beyond the point of any return.”
two more ace tunes which precede a full length later in the year for polytechnic youth. killer hooks from synth maestro mark, aligned with glorious effect to devi’s icy nico-esque vocals. another winner for both artist and label!
a pressing of 250 copies. hand numbered with sticker insert and destined to fly out super quick.

optimo music is delighted to release a first album by fantastic twins (formerly known as the twins). we’ll let them tell you the story behind this inspired and beguiling record

for our next release we welcome back two of hamburg’s finest and most recent international exports: adana twins. last seen on our latest various artists compilation, the duo returns with three absolutely stunning tracks of low slung, infectious cuts blurring the lines between house and techno with an undeniable brush stroke of character the two are quickly becoming synonymous for. ‘flower of cane’ kicks things off in an almost sinister fashion with massive low end bursts and a fever inducing, single note that never stops rising culminating in a climactic crescendo of dance floor euphoria while ‘ortus’ takes a much more ‘up-beat’ approach with dreamy arpeggios and shimmering atmospherics laid over a pulsing bassline resulting in a gorgeous number ideal for a number of memorable moments. wrapping up the originals is the guaranteed summer anthem: ‘relentless fest. jeppe kjellberg’ where sultry vocals and lush aural artifacts launch sensations to uncharted new heights. not done yet, we asked none other than the brilliant andre lodemann to create his revision of ‘relentless feat. jeep kjellberg’ and he, as always, delivered big time. with not only one but two solid reworks of the original lodemann’s remixes need no description other than there is a vocal and a dub version to satisfy any dj’s sensibility. we hope you enjoy.

‘in time’ is the new album from renegade roots and reggae producer wrongtom and hackney’s veteran breakbeat/jungle mc’s the ragga twins. ‘in time’ strips back the jungle, d&b, garage sound that the ragga twins are recognised for pioneering today, to take you back to the ‘80s reggae and dancehall landscape where they started out. throughout the record, the ragga twins recall and explore a 30-year-long journey, where they uncover prescient lyrics and stories of their youth. wrongtom provides the beats and riddims as a perfect setting for this celebration of the dancehall and reggae scene.
the vinyl release comes as a 12” + 7” package, all housed in full colour sleeve. album download card also includes upfront ‘in dub’ version of the album, these dub versions will only be available on the vinyl download card for the moment, until officially being released later in the year.

for the sophomore installment of our various artists series watergate affairs, we bring you four searing cuts of dance floor mania from ruede hagelstein, adana twins, marco resmann and tiefschwarz.

that which is not said...
twins is matt weiner who is also known for his featureless ghost project and of course as the head of the dka records label… his project twins is not limited to one specific style but the dominant characteristic is the synth driven sound… other influences in the mix are various styles of dance music and a healthy dose of arty post-punk… this new mini album “rather not” is the perfect blending of all of this… due to this it is on the one hand a classic minimal elektro record but at the same time a rather modern piece of electronic music… catchy tunes and surprising twists go hand in hand and make up for an authentic and original record… which is more stunning every time you play it!

nice price deal !!! celtic twins with fat pyscatron and jamie anderson remixes!

nice price deal !!! the twins of hardcore are back with a new 5 tracks ep!!!

nice price deal !!! 7 hardcore tracks ep!!

crimes of the future rounds off the year in fine style with an absolutely essential ep from twins. 3 moody us house cuts straught out of atlanta and a sublime deep remix from label boss scott fraser. opening up with cause of dissociation, a slice of banging chicago house that would not have been out of place in the hands of mike dunn at the warehouse. rattling drums amd percussion a cut up vocal and a killer bassline make for dancefloor devastation. next up -you take too- takes things a little deeper, maintining the groove with chicago inspired percussion and filtered drums and stabbing synths grooving the track along. over on side b scott fraser takes -you take too- on to 5am on a dark smoke filled dancefloor, with a deep bassline and soaring strings. adding additional percussion, keys and swirling echoes... could be the sound of a lost nu groove classic. finally things close out with -a way from now- with more chicago inspired goodness with a funky bassline, pumping percussion and eerie ethereal keys rounding the ep off in fine style.

limited rsd release! remastered and pressed on two 180g vinyls, this special two disc edition has newly designed inner bags and exclusive sleeve notes written by tom bailey. originally released in february 1983, quick step & side kick was the bands first album as a trimmed down trio of tom bailey, alannah currie and joe leeway.

it is loud but with sensitive moments, stomping and danceable, fuzzy and wild. tip!

hot on the broken heels of nothing left, his smash debut lp for chicago’s clear records, cgi boss and atlanta’s own twins graces his own imprint with never know yourself, a three-track ep that treats listeners to a different side of the producer’s output.

for 07 ruff draft enlists twins who turns in a dark, dystopian, club sound scape that hits all the right spots. hayworth is another alias of a well known producer to us ruff drafters, here he creates a track with an intro that teases and teases you before the beat drops and things get all sweaty. cottam digs out some acid from the hard drive, an old forgotten about track that finally gets a release.

3 the hard way returns with vol 4 ft some legendairy vocal talents with the asbo team, getting things started is duo the ragga twins alongside diamond geezer flipping a 2015 fix on a classic twins vocal for the hands in the air massive, steping up next is the heavily respected reggae star tippa irie alongside rassterlin & mixmuffin with this dark side, reece filled herbalists jungle anthem, and finally asbo fav sterling sound teams up with dancehall legend daddy freddy to mash up dancefloors with control the boader!
dj support: ray keith, nicky black market, uncledugs, aries, vinyl junkie, storm, marcus visionary, dj aphrodite ...

2014 was a definitely a huge year for dance music, with many up and coming artists being thrown into the lifestyle of hectic partying and relentless touring schedules. this also means that those who exploded onto the scene prior are no longer the new kids on the block. a few years is a long time in the life of a dj, and the first few years are often the maddest. the adana twins are a perfect example of one of these artists, having emerged onto the scene in 2012 with releases such as everyday and strange , from the off it was clear that they had everybody s undivided attention. (pulse radio) with dj names like take it easy and friso, it s probably to be presumed that german duo adana twins don t take themselves too seriously. that tongue in cheek attitude could be heard on their first productions and remixes. it s now almost almost three years later and the twins music vision is constantly developing

after his split lp release with fellow florida idiot savants os ovni and featuring on the 3rd in our dark acid series, matt weiner (featureless ghost, cgi records, dka records) returns as twins (that which is not said)for a full 12- release. this is a four tracker of raging dancefloor acid

returning with the love is a luxury 12-inch, a two-track ep co-released by matt weiners own cgi and geographic north, twins ventures deep into the collected unconscious of our singular broken heart. elegantly expansive and densely fluid, each track a fragmented careen of erotic house music. with more than an eye on the dancefloor and an ear for hypnotic luster, a-side *love runs deep* hosts dubby house perfectly suited for basic channels low-end minimalism. b-side *the empty deep* conveys the desolate counterpoint, enchanting in its sullen hysteria. weiners dubby explorations of an exposed vulnerability manifest in the vinyl itself, containing and exposing both tracks with complete transparency, baring themselves on clear crimson wax.

ahoi audio goes into the second round! this time we have two matrons of the owlana twins on board. with their -owlways ep- they present fresh tracks with a big serving of groove and melodies they sweeten every wave ride. of course we also have 2 amazing remixes for your ears.

neu auf 7 inch vinyl - modern soul & rare groove essentials: zwei 70er heavyweights aus den malaco studios in jackson, mississippi!

2 years ago their hit *strange* plunged the deep house faithfuls into the limelight, gaining them support from across the boarder. adana twins were being praised by djs of all genres and receiving standing ovations in clubs. this resulted in a bunch of new remixes, massive press attention and a busy tour schedule all over the world, with an australia, america and brasil tour. aside from their hectic worldwide touring schedule, the duo remixed *schwarz dont crack* on kitsune. in march 2014, this entertaining duo will be releasing the fresh new single drive featuring khan (ex-captain comatose/playhouse/i m single) on exploited.

from hippie dance to optimo. the twins are back with three moody dance tracks.

slamming funkin disco bizz

jeudi records is welcoming the new year with a strong single track ep by our label co-founders adana twins featuring the brazilian duo digitaria. the past year was an exciting one for our twins. filled with extensive touring after the huge success of their everyday ep.

it is a cold dark winter – snow is lying everywhere. simon12345 and the lazer twins are heading up north into a little wooden house in the northern parts of denmark. they will live there for the next weeks and build up a temporary studio in this secluded cottage. simon has got a handful of sketches with him. musical states of mind and conceptual games he developed over the last years. basically the idea is to develop something truly unique and powerful – although none of them knows how that will sound exactly or what will happen in particular during this time. it is not even clear who plays which instrument, who will do what…nothing is set. the only thing clear is that they have things to say, things that have been burning in them for so long now. tell me. how can (mostly) instrumental music suggest a way of life? how can you criticize without pointing at something particular? how can music transport you into place of quietness and self reflection?

das best-of der cocteau twins aus den jahren 1982-1990 erstmals auch als doppel-vinyl erhältlich!

initially released back in 2004, >information critic< is a bumping rocksteady / hip hop track from leeds mc black samurai, featuring vocals by uk dancehall legends the ragga twins and daddy freddy. despite picking up radio plays at the time, it found its way into only a handful of selectors boxes, one of whom was nice up founder dj shepdog, who has re-licensed the track and commissioned new remixes for 2011. first up, everyones favourite badman benny page gives it a junglist relick, upping the tempo and dropping some classic dancehall vibes. next, fellow nice up cohort j-star delivers a moombahton-style rework, showing a new direction for this in-demand producer. finally ninja tune rockers the heavy - currently hitting it big in the usa with >how you like me now< - drop a head-nodding reggae / hip hop version to round this wax remix package off nicely.

the baalsaal family is so happy with this one. we would like to warmy welcome doctor dru and the adana twins, more hamburg power to our label. this will not be last imprint promised. although when we look out of the window, there might be leaves falling down and darkness to come soon. this is a late summer groove that will make you smile with a melancholic twist

shir khan presents his favourite edits in the form of a new sublabel of exploited entitled: black jukebox. the first edition features a great mix of deep house, disco, soul and hip hop. contributions by amsterdams homework and hamburgs adana twins. 4 infectiously catchy tracks that can be either explained as >true revision< or >the stick a kick drum on it!< philopsophy. already loved by the round table knights, soul clap, dj sneak, jesse rose, catzndogs, wareika, dj t, jazzanova, christian prommer&michael reinboth, nd baumecker and many more. homework and the adana twins took 4 classic tracks and turned them into something that is so lush that maybe even larry levan might have played it out. 90s sentiments were rearranged to be retrofitted in this era: pure revisionist nostalgia.

juast an another unique joe claussell production... one sided 12 inch vinyl and very special !! anthem alarm with live feeling!!

when you combine the force of breaks/electro fusionist peo de pitte with the pedigree of the drumattic twins it is no surprise that the result is dancefloor devastation. peos remix unleashes his talents, mashing the fuck out of the disco tinged original. chopping and filtering beats and peaking with a signature synth line that smashes through to the heart of the electro ravers. packaged with the brilliant deep throat, a disco esque departure from the more typical dt sound, it keeps the funk firmly on the peddle. heartbreaker completes the vinyl package with its n joi inspired keys that drift alongside a fat percussive breakbeat building into a massive synth breakdown!

this 4 track ep showcases the twins alongside remixes from scotlands hostage & fellow ‘leedette’ jo kira.

seminal rave/jungle anthem gets serious dubstep remix on soul jazz records! cut up, reworked and dissected by two of dubsteps most creative artist/producers working today: ramadanman (hessle audio) and kutz, the young croydon producer...

taken from the drumattics forthcoming album hammer & tongs comes back to the old school. a piano driven, hands in the air tribute to where it all began. with bambaata influenced strings to take us from the old school to outer space. the aa is drum thunder, with compelling orchestral stabs that drive right to the heart of this belting underground workout. a signature bassline squelches around the lead vocal, before an almighty breakdown twists the glitch to the max and propells us straight through the nearest dancefloor.
