here we roll after a long pause back to musik krause. toting three nuggets brought to you with care which are somewhere between gentle hardcore with a weakness for the horns, and a warm coolness that finds its place without the chocolate cake. whoever thinks that what i am doing here is again on a peppermint accordion ditty got it twisted. dark, complex and almost avant gard-ish hearty.

on his new album, pantha du prince, who lives in berlin and paris, claims: music slumbers in all matter, any sound, even silence, is already music. the mission, then, must be to render audible what is unheard and unheard of: black noise, a frequency that is inaudible to man. black noise often presages natural disasters, earthquakes or floods, only some animals perceive this calm before the storm. black noise is something archaic and earthy. the music on black noise balances precariously on the slippery threshold between art and nature, between techno and folklore, which lends it a certain spectral and intangible aspect. black noise also features a couple of special guests - noah lennox of animal collective sings on >stick to my side< and tyler pope of !!! and lcd soundsystem plays bass on >the splendour<.

plastic rules is steadily moving towards the future with high quality minimal techno releases. 004 was a firm step in the right direct featuring the amazing >someone else<.

for almost as long as there have been djs, there have been dj tools: bonus beats, acapellas and ambient overlays have long been the stock in trade of selectors interested in more than simple crossfades from outro to intro. but back at the beginning of 2007, luciano put a new twist on a triedand- true idea with no model no tool. the inaugural release on cadenza split composition, a sublabel of the iconic swiss imprint, no model no tool revitalized the recombinant concept, offering djs a selection of readymade miniatures that worked like sonic building blocks—oddly-shaped bits and pieces designed to be stacked and shuffled to the djs delight.

andy vaz recovered this data in 2006 for persistencebit records.

plaupez >l ame d un singe< is the 1st release from alma soul music. this ep has a mixture of music styles wich include deep, tech & minimal house. plaupez original mix is certainly a good example of the genre variety, its house base blends into a tech atmosphere with a futurist melody. jon gurd s version is ideal for a late night mainfloor, with powerful basses and energic percussions. vasco inspirian offers his particular sound wich has a very noticing detroit influence and licuadora system s remix minimalizes the track with his frenetic minimal- house version. all four tracks are composed by very talented artists and the result is ready to rock any dance floor!

pauls new tracks are, as usual, first class techno burners. >altes kamuffel< starts of f with a sof t and trancy synth line, almost romantic, is infiltrated by a straight beat and then goes of f like bum. the bass hits your stomach, the clap drills crisply into your sinuses and the high, playful synth warms up your heart. the track for the peak of a club night !! repress

dass tracks aus dem hause reboot in der vergangenen cocoon-saison eine herausragende rolle spielten, dürfte niemandem verborgen geblieben sein, schließlich konnte sich der 30jährige frankfurter produzent frank heinrich bereits zusammen mit johnny d. im rahmen des >disco invaders<-cocoon ibiza summer mix in einer art live-jam-session austoben. umso verblüffender, dass erst jetzt nach releases auf below und cadenza endlich die erste reboot-12 inch auf cocoon erscheint. >ronson< macht mit seinem tribalistischen einschlag schnell klar, wohin die reise geht, mit alarmsirenen und druckluftausstoß zeigt sich heinrich hier so kompromisslos energetisch wie nie und bleibt dabei maximal pumpend, aber immer sexy. etwas abwartender strukturiert, gönnt das polyrhythmisch perkussive >mirasierra< dann den erschöpften tänzerinnen und tänzern eine kleine atempause, auch wenn die kräftig dub-verzierte bassline dabei ganz schön diskoide glücksmomente setzt. für die gefühlten tropischen momente im jetzigen frühjahr sind jedenfalls beide tracks bestens geeignet!!

nico purman (known from labels like crosstown rebels, mule electronic & vakant) is known for his unique dark and deep, yet funky sound, definitely the right man to bring us those first spring vibrationz...nico purmans first curle is already almost two years old. in fact he was one of the first people we contacted when we were in the process of starting up the label. simply because of his unique dark and deep, yet funky sound. at the time he had only released on modelisme, but in the meantime much respected labels such as crosstown rebels and mule electronic proposed him an ep, and also vakant took him under their wings. hailing from argentina, hes definitely the right man to bring us those first spring vibrationz...

deadmau5 is back with huge smash hit >ghosts n stuff< and the minimal >peddler of misery<. ghosts n stuff was written especially for deadmau5s essential selection live from the warehouse project manchester. a new musical direction for the mau5, ghosts n stuff is a gigantic slab of french house. big organs and synths collide alongside a killer bassline and tight percussion. ghosts n stuff looks like being one of mau5s biggest hits to date. peddler of misery is the complete opposite to ghosts n stuff with its minimal arrangement and trippy double beat. the percussion is delayed and crazy, helping to create real messed up dancefloor moments!

the berlin based dj and highgrade-artist jens bond presents with his new ep >hypochonder< his latest work. bond is allready known for his percussive tracks beside that the resident dj of berlins watergate club is well established thanks to his collaborations with benno blome (sender records) and guido schneider (pokerflat). in the namegiving titeltrack for this new ep for highgrade jens bond gives it all: stakkatos of rolling percussions meet pearling synth-lines, creating a jacking, neverending groove. >got some…< develops this recipe for success more into a slightly darker direction, while keeping up beeing changefull with the same >hands-up<-factor. instead of a break mr. bond serves us with >paulista grill< the next highlight of this ep. massive, with a touch of darkness, build on a strong fundament of a funky, dry-asa-bone groove. three tracks, simultaneously eventfull and homogeneous, carrying clearly jens bonds signature.

groovebox ep is filled with some class a material for the raunchy dancefloor. first up there is into the club. this track is typical for channel x: it will blow off the roof in the club! as the title of the track already suggests, this is another one of channel xs lengthy journeys into nightlife extravaganzas. a wonderful fidgety bassline and a loop filled with loads of soulful vocal samples from strong male leads to sensitive female souls, this tune is both deep, touchful and destroying. the chainsaw effect session in the middle paves the way for more stomping tech-house business. no time to recover from this, because on the flip its straight onto the floor with wake up: a loop thats made of trillions of little cut-up effects, vocal bits and some straight four to the floor business. after a playful beginning the tune moves into an hypnotic piece of trippy techno only to be converted into a restless party anthem for the Überpeak-time. sick! perhaps there is some time to chill with the last of the three tracks that is against the wall. here it becomes clear what channel x are best at: to create dark, hard and moving electronic music with that special ingredient that is soul. this track is a perfect example: some frightening effects, lots of reverb on the creepy samples, but such a wonderfully harmonic sample that seems to shed light at the end of the never-ending afterhour. if there is a message to this music, it would be: you need to look hard, but there is always love. once again label boss oliver koletzki has picked up these two very talented producers very early upon their career and it has paid off: in one release being better than the one before

e b t g minimal tech retreat !!! this years sonars biggie hit!!!

already support from boys noize, james talk, markus kavka, glimpse, savas pascalidis, patrick batemann and many more... the follow-up to the first, very successful, remute-release zuendli , is all about hypnosis. the a-side is a strong house tune with many glamourous breaks and twists, while the b-side is breathtaking techno-whip which will just destroy all dancefloors on the planet. be careful: it s actually, literally m.a.s.s. h.y.p.n.o.s.i.s.!!!
