iron curtis is a berlin based young producer. his debut release on tensnakes mirau was supported a lot from many djs and deetron picked his track to his mix cd on music man. this his third release contains three unique touch detroitish house tracks. title track of >großreuth 1< is a winner of this ep. it reminds old school detroit house track and simply effective in the club. this track will be useful dj tool for any house and techno djs. >save the night<, >80 g< on the opposite side are little bit more deep house style. i would like to recommend these tracks to the fan of underground quality or that kind of underground house.

for the third release on their fresh new imprint, the home taping crew hand over the controls to the safe hands of old school house pioneer chris duckenfield aka duckbeats to deliver the musical heat.

melancholic folk!

we are delighted to welcome the mighty russ gabriel to ever expanding dieb family and have him contribute this excellent 3 track ep to our catalogue. fans of russ sound as well as the uninitiated will not be disappointed here as there is a very wide stylistic audio palette on display here-yet still retaining russ quintessential production aesthetic and quality.
ranging from the epic, old school >returning home< with its haunting pad and melodious bass arpeggios to the stripped back chugging tech house workout of >push it along< and the futuristic, techno-infused >narita express< with its modulating stabs and catchy, repetitive bassline it is easy to see why russ is and has always been considered a unique and exciting music visionary equally capable of creating harmonic, atmospheric soundscapes or high energy, functional beats aimed squarely at the dancefloor.
whatever your preference, this package is sure to satisfy even the most discerning ear or demanding club crowd! enjoy!
