generic white sleeve / no artwork. please welcome frankfurts very own einzelkind as the latest addition to our artist pool. his first single 12inch contribution for cocoon recordings seems to be endless and gets nicely spiced up with hypnotic vocal elements and discoide space sounds. free savioni already made the terrace floor on one of our cocoon ibiza nights move big time. it actually had such a strong impact that we immediately had to sign it after einzelkind played it! aya curanderito on the flip side sounds like a late night party deep in the forest witch trolls dancing around a fire, this is deep shamanic business with a slight villalobos touch (no wonder as the two joined forces before for some other releases already). cool and trippy, something for the long nighs at the infamous robert johnson club or berlins panoramabar. welcome se±or einzelkind!

london s release/sustain imprint returns this may with the a says hello ep from detroit s alton miller, chaos in the cbd step in on remix duties. detroit s alton miller has been in the game for the past three decades coming up alongside luminaries derrick may, chez damier and the late frankie knuckles and releasing material on the likes of peacefrog, moodymann s mahogany music, theo parrish sound signature and clone amongst others. suffice to say, miller stands as an extremely important figure in the history of authentic, soul-drenched house music. title-track a says hello opens the package and as expected we re treated to an elegant slice of house infused with a flawless musicality as multi-layered synth chords, pads and swells intertwine alongside dusty drum samples. cool but so... follows, embracing an acid-jazz feel with broken, organic rhythms, sweeping pads and warm chord progressions throughout. mule musiq artists chaos in the cbd step up to rework cool but so... next, adding their own spin to things via warbling rhodes licks, bright chord sequences, a wandering bass line and an insistent organic drum groove. below the underdog then rounds out the package perfectly with gritty bass hits, tension building synth swells and a rugged, bumpy drum groove.

killer, cosmic leaning german funk-rock moves here on the repress tip courtesy of epsilon, a 4 piece from marburg, just north of frankfurt. that kind of grooved out, downtempo dusted glam type of gear that one might hear dj harvey play at wrong o clock in the morning, or something that loda might flip into mid-set that would have everyone scratching their head in disbelief. one of a handful of cool jams the epsilon guys cranked out, remastered and repressed on a lovely, handy 45. sounds heavy. essential listening for those of a more left-field disposition. dig it.

turbolenz is a new label from offenbach run by philipp lenz aka delenz. the first label s release comes from shayde, the brain child of delenz and his partner richard hötter. titled „ama il buco- (italian natives get the joke here), it features a very diverse spectrum of sounds and moods. „ama il buco- a slow grower and steady groover that will get many bodies moving and is some ready-to-get-naked material for sure. „kühlschrank in f-moll- is a rather dreamy, yet positive and escapistic affair. insert your favourite sunrise after a long night out here. the flip side starts with a remix by none other than swayzak, the mighty tech house duo from london. their take on „ama il buco- is a crisp and cool peak time affair for a moment of contemplation – if that makes sense. the last track „ofwebach- is obviously an homage to delenz home town offenbach. apparently a more uptempo and experimental terrain, „ofwebach- is something else. all in all, the result is a rock-solid 4-track debut release on turbolenz or as they say in offenbach and frankfurt: megastabiles ding.

messalina records return with a fantastic ep of eclectic dancefloor bubblers from fellow we love space residents jamie fatneck low and lucci capri (aka dj callum). first up is the eagerly awaited vinyl release of fatnecks incredible acid rework of michael jacksons classic billie jean, highly in-demand since receiving heavy rotation from greg wilson (the only dj lucky enough to have a copy) who nicely sums the track up...i love the way fatneck has put a somewhat psychotic twist on billie jean via his acid interpretation - inspired west yorkshire wacko madness! next up lucci capri delivers the quirky balearic chugger dame un beso, with super-sweet latino lyrics and a great reggae-influenced swing. flip over for the beautifully understated because today i saw u which melds a cool deep house groove with esther phillips yearning vocals. rounding off the ep in style is fatnecks superb dancefloor-friendly edit of the aretha franklin version what a fool believes. great stuff - welcome back messalina!

rhein-main based tag team diggler & franksen go back some way in the history of frankfurts electronic scene. around 2000 diggler honed his reputation as a master of dubby techno for a whole decade. his early tracks like >boogiemonster< are blueprints of cool. period. today he is still rollin out crisp and deep techhouse beats that combine musical finesse, compositional tension and club appeal. having released about six albums and countless tracks and remixes for labels from raum…musik to cocoon and from resopal to level non zero, diggler is still on the hunt for the proper dose of beat hypnosis.
for their >morning blue ep< diggler teams up with frankfurts radio legend franksen who hosts germanys eldest dj show, todays you fm clubnight. franksen saw a string of releases over the last two years, collaborating for labels such as suara, dieb.audio, kommmitmusik, plastic city and more.

almost three years after their release >lake<, odessa appear appealing their scene again. actually, their privacy breaktime should not have been a musical discontinuance, too. but as it sometimes goes things happen abruptly. although the ep >memory leak< already was pre-produced in 2009 it got just recently a detailed finishing. leave off the idea these tracks could have had their half-life already, not at all. odessa stay here and now, presenting reduced, cool-organic house with wide atmospheres. even though odessa music keeps ascetical aesthetics since the beginning a certain pathos can deeply be felt. once again, but just for one track (>l aurore<), frederique frankes exceptional voice comes to effect.

mainakustik is proud to present the next regular release. on the new mainakustik you will find two hot originals from danjel esperanza(a1) & chris köhler(b1) + remixes from soulrack & mikel_e (a2) and sebbo vs agent!(b2). danjel esperanza is running very successfully the labels “meleon music” and “backdoor beauty . his track “mein kleiner cowboy” is a nice tech-house song with organic melodies and superb drumming. its getting a remix from no one else then sm aka soulrack and mikel_e (cray1 labworks). these guys know how to produce a floorbomb. chris köhler is already known in the rhein-main-area as one part of “der eine und der andere” and his own label “one way ticket . his track “abenddämmerung is a cool tool for the morning hours, with nice harmonic guitar chords. it’s remixed by sebbo & agent! which need no further introduction, let the music speak!!! early support: matt star, frank leicher, pascal feos, die haustiere, wjh…

g.i.disco - an 80s history of cold war s hottest music in west-germany berlin local dj heroes kalle kuts and daniel w. best a.k.a. g.i.disco have compiled an excellent 80s soul, funk, r & b and disco selection. it combines representative music of that time with informative liner notes about the german historical background (which also is an important part of 20th century s world history), international artist quotes and worldwide renowned art by berlin based photographer frank thiel to an unique history lesson and listening experience. soul, funk and r&b from the us became a worldwide dance and clubbing movement during the 70s when it turned disco. in the late 70s and 80s more and more new electronic instruments like synthesizers and drum machines were added to the horn riffs and piano licks, bringing the funk back on the dance floor while still leaving it s soul untouched. although a global success story, it played an interesting role especially in the german experience. lp comes in gatefold sleeve.

part 3 in the voyeurhythm series! retro futuristic house tracks by ben sun and monte carlo interchange. ben delivers a great track that builds around a sweet frankie knuckles kind of bassline and sexy ny proto house percussion, topped with lush piano and vocal samples 1992 rippin old disco records style. heavy hitter! flip side is a spaced out slomo cosmic house jam with a big bass line which goes between a classic 90s carl craig and a late 80s chicago house bassline ... sweeet! another cool release from these kind australian folks!

strongest yamyam release so far, just listen!
gregor tresher: yes, a-side, simple and cool, will def play this out!!

frank leicher: cool release again on yamyam

musica sol y mar are pleased to offer their first release showcasing some of the most beautiful music played on the island of ibiza from the last 30 years, a style of music that has become known throughout the world as balearic. musica sol y mar is the brainchild of two djs originally from the spanish mainland but now settled in ibiza. they are deeply influenced by the music played by the likes of cafédel mar legend, jose padilla as well as phil mison and jon sa trinxa. this compilation provides a beautiful snapshot that will take anyone who has been to ibiza back to those long chilled days and nights on the white isle. for anyone who has not yet made it to the balearic paradise of ibiza, the music here will provide a tantalizing glimpse into the spiritual vibe to be found on the island. from the cool danish pop of laid back, through neo-flamenco courtesy of ottmar liebert to the ultra-chilled reggae grooves of gregory isaacs, balearic sound volumen uno is a broad church of musical styles. jean-luc pontys rare version of mory kante s ye ke ye ke is worth a special mention as it is now getting plays again from san antonio to the big apple. all tracks featured here are either long deleted on vinyl or are seeing a vinyl release for the first time. all tracks have been re mastered for maximum quality.

believe it or not . instead of becoming extinct, brontosaurus keeps on hustling with a new release out of the dinosaur heartland named frankfurt. after being bored with only releasing music of arto mwambe, extraproduktionen, exile missile or the worst of them all: lauer, we decided that it was time for some fresh blood: the man, the myth: zachary ! this fine gentleman & long time robert johnson resident graces the label with 3 little and very special gems.+à cool sleeve as always and strictly limited to the number of records we re going to sell. oh.. and vinyl only for sure..! enjoy..

after their last production faith christian pass and johannes team up again for sungod to continue their creative work. on the flip side johannes heil is celebrating life with his track true love. what else needs to be said!? supported by heiko mso, gregor tresher: excellent start for johannes heils new labeb!, toni rios, frank lorber. the same way volcanoes have eruptions, dicks have erections and bloody rivers flow: shit happens naturally! even when im on the toilet, i will not use force to squeeze it out because i know it will flow out anyway. its a state of mind, a way to live and the best description of how the creative process and the decisions of this new playground will take place. we will let it flow and get rid of the shit before it happens! we are not willing to take control, but we love to let things grow naturally.we love music, to play and to live a free life of passion, friendship and harmony.you can expect everything besides a concept label with corporate people creating corporate music. because the concept is to have none, but the heart will release the tunes we really love. no matter which genre you might order them to, of course, we are focused on club music, but still there will be music fit in perfectly to a sunny day on which you are sitting on the balcony having a barbecue with friends and drinking a cool beverage. there also might be a tune you can get laid to for the first time in your life. we dont create images, we dont believe in heroes - but we believe in you and ourselves. the most important place for us is the soul - the spot where it all is happening. so let us start with our two favourite tracks for the summertime.

another serious result from our warehouse rummaging! si begg is a man of many musical personalities, his list of aliases is impressive to say the least (bigfoot, buckfunk3000, lenny logan, s.i. futures, zygmunt janowski...). but one of his oldest, and certainly one of his strangest, is cabbage boy. in fact i confess i am old enough to remember his releases in the early 90s on cassette tape under the umbrella of the >cabbage head collective< (which also included such techno notables as cristian vogel & tim wright) - and pretty mental they were too. the lost tapes vol. 1 doesnt disappoint on that front, containing such gems as a remix of 80s pop mysteries frank chickens>we are ninja<, and an electronic cover version of >king kong< by frank zappa (ask your parents...). totally out there, but totally cool at the same time...highly recommended to anyone looking for something with some real personality amidst the hard-drives full of faceless (and usually nameless) digital fluff

special green coloured vinyl !! frankie serves us a raw and dirty chicago and acid infected ep to create a unique party flavour... cool , raw and dirty... decks tip

summer breeze... new production on dj simi & master keys label deck. two cool tracks from dj frankie b with the magic touch of the masters on the b side!

the ron hardy tribute juggernaut rolls on with two more flashes of enlightenment. a slice of salsoul scorcher is paired with the cooler vibe from chris & cosey. >i remember ron hardy dropping nitzer ebb (hard industrial band) in between records by marshall jefferson and adonis.< says scott k. (more club, los angeles >in urb magazine theres an article on felix da housecat where he mentions frankie knuckles dropping cuts from bands like new order. he then credits (rightfully so) ron hardy for starting that.< >ron was more adventurous that frankie knuckles. frankie would play straight disco but ron would play all kinds of stuff. hed play eurythmics, he play man parrish, hed play shannon, right along with the disco. and man, he just stole all of frankie knuckles crowd.< - marshall jefferson deep underground chicago staple of music played by the chose few to the ones who truly know how deep it is. now its time for the masses to feel the real deepness of the true chicago 80s era of music. only ten percent of what happened here in the 80s, is known to the rest of the world. dont you want to be a member?

dj support comes from dj rush, frank kvitta, greg notill !! andreas kremer & a.crash are back to rock the masses with this very powerful and awesome anthem. (incl. the vocals by the master himself) incl. some cool remixes by mayhem man and joc from barcelona/spain.

after a long break fm musik is back with a huge ep from the london based marc cotterell. this is a must-have monster for every deep and techhouse set. on the aside we have the frankman remix, well know from his releases and remixes on labels like auris, dessous, shayan or moonharbour. he bring us, in best frankman manner, a deep, atmospheric tune with deep rhodes, tricky delays, tight beatprogramming and an amazing break after 6 min. the original mix on the b-side by marc cotterell presents shakin deep grooves with cool synthlines. special chords and pads round up the message to you. the ep finishes off with james tones givin us a rolling 303 bassline. a perfect track for late-nite and sunrise moments

cool rockin techhouse funk 4 tracker !! for this 25th release we are very pleased to have keisuke kondo on board with his original approach of micro house genre mixing complexe structures with weird elements sometimes darker and deeper and in the sametime keeping a amazing funky side

balearic percussion driven house number with sexy female vocals and a cool flamenco guitar

forward thinking progressive dance music with energetic bouncing basslines and cool vocals from frank beckers himself..

viewlexx comes with another obscure disco gem from the crates of i-f. nasty disco from the early '80s. 'castro boy' is a really warped take on frank zappa's classic 'valley girl' (on the lp 'ship arriving too late to save a drowning witch'). a seriously hard edged disco/hi-nrg tune with some very x-rated lyrics. so you thought lcd soundsystem is cool and all.. well check out this one... note that this record can be shocking for some people

killer new track by juan magans brother with a cool electro houser with a nice synth and a strong electro bassline and fxd vocals supported by steve lawler

katalyst is sydney-based producer ashley anderson, one of australias most prolific producers. over the past two decades katalyst has risen to the top of the australian hip hop and electronica scenes, receiving multiple aria and j award nominations along the way. his reputation as one of australias best producers has seen him collaborate with the likes of geoff barrow of portishead, aloe blacc, dead prez, guilty simpson, phat kat, j-live, finale, frank n dank, diverse, ugly duckling and steve spacek (who together form space invadas). the latest product of his audiophiliac obsession, deep impressions? deconstructs and distils soul, hip hop, funk, jazz, reggae and electro influences into what is perhaps most accurately described as -the katalyst sound-. it is a reflection of the large variety tunes that influence katalysts own musical direction. the album also includes collaborations with the likes of los angeles hip-hop artist bootie brown (of the pharcyde), sydneys own kweeng (killaqueenz), underground legend mr clean, upcoming north carolina mc coin locker kid, stephanie mckay (usa), steve spacek (uk), hau (koolism), and jane doe (formally jade macrae).
