keeping up the pace rolling nicely into our third release of 2018 we welcome onto etg yet more italian techno precision, this time from francesco profeti and pietro franchini aka hertz collision. responsible for a myriad of very stand out tracks such as “lost” and “all going” they have been remixed by the likes of kwartz and appeared on labels such as frozen border and dynamic reflection.
it’s been a pleasure putting the release together with the guys, receiving tracks and agreeing on artwork. as with every etg this release shows the full spectrum of their talent and their own individual take on techno. as ever it’s double a side. also special mention to programma 101 who features on track aa3.

well, its been a while since the fb crew got off there arse and released something! and here it is in the shape of italy’s hertz collision...

repress - 4 different tracks between minimal and techhouse, please note that this repress comes in a black cardboard cover and not a printed one

four track ep with prime time uk techno

finest timeless deep detroit techno groover

the fourth release is a solo ep from elad magdasi, bringing his inner raver to his music at all times. a full-on energy-charged techno extravaganza - with soul, passion and front left love. including download codes of the ep + a digital bonus track.
the music:
killer hertz: hypnotic bells with a powerful rhythm, a recipe for drama.
immortal: the evil side of the record, a mysterious arp that keeps on rolling.
reflection: a high energy synth celebration, with attention to detail and lots of groove.
red skies: moody melody and dark bassline, a combination of heaven and hell.

over the course of four albums, manchester based trumpeter, composer, arranger and band-leader matthew halsall has carved out a niche for himself on the uk music scene as one of it s brightest talents. his languid, soulful music has won friends from jamie cullum and gilles peterson to jazz fm and mojo as well as an ever-growing international following. his label gondwana records is home to gogo penguin and his own albums have found halsall exploring the modal jazz of john and alice coltrane, paying tribute to the hard bop of the late ’50s and early ’60s or most recently on fletcher moss park drawing on eastern influences in his most personal statement yet. his latest album when the world was one is something of a companion piece to fletcher moss park (much of the music was written at the same time) but draws more explicitly on halsall’s love of spiritual jazz and eastern music as well as his own studies in meditation and travels in japan. beautifully recorded at hasall’s favourite studio, 80 hertz in manchester, and engineered by brendan williams and george atkins it features the recording debut of halsall’s large ensemble, the gondwana orchestra, which utilises the exotic flavours of harp, koto and bansuri flute and eastern scales to create a global palate for halsall’s life-affirming sounds.

supported by umek, slam, fergie, spektre, carlo lio, secret cinema, maetrik, gary beck, tom hades, hertz, d.a.v.e the drummer, damon wild and many more... this is the time of neapolitan bodyscrub aka roberto bonetti, enjoys a growing reputation as one of the most exciting production talents around. deeply hypnotic, sexy vocals and with a raw percussive power the deep cerebral ambience of the tracks are infused with an all-consuming dancefloor energy. brightness and dark blend perfectly!

time for a very special summer edition of patterns. in collaberation with the mighty hertz we present: the bitching bob / julia remixes! the hot spanish producer david moleon picked these two special tracks out of the huge hertz catalogue and let loose his funky skills on the tracks. the result: 2 big techno must haves for the djs who want to make sure the crowd is moving!

last time we got hertz on q-records we did not only sell a lot of records, dj misjah and adam beyer also used the tracks on mix-cds. this time he is back, fresh for 2008. the a-side is a groovy piece, were the <groove doctor> himself let you get a portion for the groove la chord-feeling. massive in the arrangement and truly funky! the b-side is a bit different. b1 is very straightforward with very fat beats and a twisted sound that is building. b2 get thoughts over to the joris voorn-style. // special restock !!

3th part in the very limited and wanted new life series. and a special one it is this time! 3 classic hertz tracks that have been unavailable for a long time and a brandnew remix of the just released sway 023!

finest phunky and timeless electro stuff. supported by errorsmith, the hacker, passarani !!

this time hertz is back with a funk fuelled energy bomb that balance in between an old school vibe ala 1998 and a fresh approach for 2008. expected support from a wide range of djs. on the filp you will find a track with a repetitive acid-sounding bassline but without the 303. this is rather a fresh synth that gets the tweeking. on the b2, you find a pierre j remix that takes care of the house-ier sounds

when we released the first atom-1 with hertz, we couldnt believe how big it would grow with support from the whole swedish mafia (lekebusch, mull, ozgur etc). this time hertz is back with 3 new tracks to die for and a remix from ozgur can (truesoul, pickadoll, harthouse, mouseville) that will do the trick! we call this funky, minimal techno at its best

after 4 wicked releases with impressive sales it is time for hertz to enter on his own label. the a-side is nothing else than a funky techno hit. you will recognize the old 70s bass-sample, mostly known from s-express in the 80s. with a full on arrangement and a great break, this is a guarantied anthem. on the flip you will find a massive tune, with a fat driving loop working in 130 bpm !!

imre kiss presents crisis 001. the budapest-based artist ushers in the next phase of the party and dj collective that has been reshaping the hungarian music landscape since its inception in early 2016. the label’s inaugural release, ad astra, represents the fruits of a collaboration that has been a long time in the making. kiss, fresh off the back of his evolutionary strangers ep on mörk, partners with compatriot norwell, who is following up a prolific 2017 – one in which helena hauff named his odd ep her favourite record of the year.

new sub label from membrane recordings, blues + acid! in a human world, even the machines get the blues. discarded debris turning backs on the dusty strewn mess of cables and circuits in the corners time passes with calloused wind. random ghosts from the mississippi delta to chicago seem to find their way into the dusty boxes. a temporary home to let loose and vent.

banging peak time techno incl hertz remix !!

d1 recordings mark their 35th release with eamonn doyle s >red shift< ep. following on from his recent >ghost of the machine< release on sweden s hertz recordings, here he lays down two more slices of extremely deep bass driven techno aimed at the more discerning dance-floor. the 12-minute title track >red shift< is built around a deep rolling sub bassline with layered orchestral strings used subtly throughout. the flip sides >winter sun< arrives with more shimmering strings, this time underpinned with a crisp 909 backbone and lifted with some rich and soulful lead string lines. this release is part of the d1 limited editions series. vinyl runs are strictly limited to 300 copies, after which the ep will only be available digitally. the red shift ep has already caught the ear of many of the world s leading producers with dj support coming from detroit legends dj bone, claude young, octave one and also mark broom, laurent garnier, rennie foster and kan shinomura

stomping techno remix by hertz !! plus a techhouse meets disco original >> peak time hit

following contributions by dj deep and dj hell, tresor records are proud to present the third instalment in their kern mix-series, this time headed by berlin based producer objekt, his first release following his 2014 debut album flatland for pan. in keeping with the series mission of showcasing a more personal approach to mixing hertz describes his process as such, kern vol. 3 is made up of tracks that i know i will play and love for years to come. some of these records have been in my bag for years others are almost as new to me as they are to you. a handful are by lesser known artists whom i admire and who i think deserve wider recognition. planned, recorded, embellished, reworked, tweaked and chiselled away at over a period of 6 months, the mix was gradually carved out in a way that makes use of new and old techniques alike, presenting itself primarily as a dj mix but settling in a sweet spot between live recording and studio trickery. the tracklist spans styles, decades and bpms in an attempt to craft a mix thats unpredictable and compelling in equal measure Ð one that draws from the more adventurous corners of my club sets, but above all, one thats a pleasure to listen to.

excellent dj mix cd!!
