fresh relreleased ... phat funky techno / techhouse action kitchen studio 3 is a small, newborn techno/electronica label, founded on the friendship between pezzo, adaig and bettyboop and their deep passion for electronic music and club life.

bergerac is the new record label set up by uk producer and dj red rack’em (aka danny berman) to showcase the more dancefloor end of his music productions. danny is well known for his wonky disco outings as hot coins on tirk and also his deep as hell beatdown house on untracked. his style of production and djing have recently taken a slightly more banging angle due to the influence of larger scale festival gigs such as glastonbury, snowbombing and the big chill. so it seemed like the perfect time to start a label focussing on house and techno for the more discerning dancefloor. the label artwork will feature bespoke illustrations from german artist silke eiselt of all the houses danny has lived in chronologically. how much more fucking house can you get than that? how i program is a raw, heads down, whacked out banger, which straddles the wafer thin divide between house and techno with aplomb. with a massive loud donking bass noise, seedy late night atmosphere and danny shouting about how he programs his shit - this is some freaky deaky peak time business. next up is bonn, a warm crackly rhodes driven halcyon house moment, which evokes the slightly majestic and nostalgic vibe of people dancing alone together in a hot room at the end of the night. cheering sourced directly from bonn in 1982 mixes with naive keywork and distant female chants the first bergerac ep closes with it happens to us all, which could be an ode to prematurely greying men, the onset of senility or occasional farting in public places. its definitely a prime slice of wrong house with some seriously french hi hats and dubbed out bassline action though. yes, its more syncopated than an exploding castanet factory but thats how we like that kind of funk

the wise-woman clarissa is a figment escaped from the imaginations of andreaferlin and matteo spedicati. from her home at the very edge of the world, clarissa is master and maker of psycedelic rituals, orgiastic ceremonies and liberating chants. according to tradition, the encounter between the hazel duo occurs in the sand amongstthe looping, grooving sounds of a nearby dancefloor where music of such strong forces,sometimes tribal, sometimes psychedelic, compelling mortals into a gruelling dance thatfrees them evermore from sleep. first ep on sleep is commercial for clarissa hazel duo. face also sign the first appereance on sic of our friend ues.

seattle/san francisco based techno label, from 0-1, drops a smashing mini-compilation for their debut vinyl release just in time for the dog days of summer. headlining this effort is >hethradia<, the very first collaboration between techno veteran bryan zentz and somas golden boy, lets go outside. >hethradia< is a sparse, heady effort set atop a sine wave-engorged bassline rivaling californias biggest swells. acid drenched bells and synths chime in from another dimension to round off an effort that stands to be emblematic of both producers more adventurous workings.

reyf (aka suedmilch) & eidner collaborate with some real musicans to discover the boarders of jazz, dub, house and techno and make their own smokey interpretations.

great 1985 synth-pop / new wave album by abc. b-stock items, because cover with incision (as you can see on the cover pic - b side)

the musique d hiver pour l ete is all about warm instrumentation with a special emphasis on an intentional lo-fi production. it might even be a statement in an age of digitalism and overproduction. it rides the line between romantic techno and sultry disco!

to share and to increase the love, to let the soul speak through the music, is a feeling which can hardly be described with words. with ôloving , i want to embrace the whole world, because this journey to the origins of electronic dance music in between modern detroit, high tech soul and house is coming from the very bottom of my heart.ö (johannes heil, 2010)

finally, the live virtuoso olene kadar is back again with release #4 on his homebase mos ferry! not only the really massive kick makes the a-side >deal< a true stomper, that might put a smile on every detroit fans face also a guy called gerald would be thrilled! kadar uses common sounds and styles to stack his own unconventional sound-building - his own >house<. driving is probably the adjective that can express most accurately what constitutes the eight and a half minutes track with its funky organ chords. the b-side >sot:2< contains an equally virtuoso ass-shaker. somewhere between industrial aesthetics of the reverberated snare and the indefinable squawking sound its elements combine into a multi-dimensional piece of >club therapy< full of extremes. the unity of groovy kick and bass constitutes a high contrast to the vast extending percussion that moves at times in dramatic and absurd dimensions. approaching the drop, the almost out of control snare rolls and percussion drown any crowd in their own sweat dripping from the ceiling.

in classical geometry, the triangle is the simplest polygon. the one which can be used to construct all other polygons. the root of them all. three points define a plane in space. thus resulting in the phenomenon that a tripod always has a safe and solid stand. three musicians teamed up to produce the triangle peul. in addition to the well known mr raoul k rollercoaster ride through moods from contemplation to euphoria, producing as part of a team adds a new dimension of dialog to his work. itÆs no longer just the communication between him and the audience, this time the communication that happened during the production process shines through. the fun, the deep concentration and the energy that everyone felt and committed is recognisable for the audience with ease. unsurprisingly, the triangle peul comes in three different mixes including a drum laden beatstramental for those who still like to mix.

sorgenkint is back! tracks between harder techno and acid -- back to rave

keith tucker is also known as k-1 and for releases on direct beat and puzzlebox. here he delivers a 3 track ep that is in between straight up electro and classic detroit techno stuff. very nice and warm melodies and mysterious female vocals.

after his >true emotions ep< and the marco bailey >muzik<-remix, mb elektronics invited davy dee back to hit us with another slamming release.
starting off with the perfect combination between house and techno: >the yellow screen< twists and turns. make sure to listen all 6 minutes of it because the end is not as you would expect. a splendid remix from kaiserdisco brings a more minimal feel to the track but keep enough of the splendid original version to remain groovy.
the flipside track >sweet violence< has many great sounds, striking bass-lines and gives you that vintage warehouse-techno feeling.
what better way to start your summer!

this 12inch release comes with two functional tracks which enables the electronic music scene in excitement. the a-site kicks off with >fesselfete<: the designers of the track - j÷rg dinsher and julia husler- implemented a rhythmically complex track with this release. detached from insipid song-structures, the galloping beat leads through the eight minutes of the track. shifting hi-hats and smacking beat-elements, snuggle around the groove and influence in a spectacular style the sensed speed. the extra bass- pressure catapulting the - full of character - >fesselfete< directly to the floors of the clubs, where it scores with memorable features and powerful impression. the second a-site comes with danny d.s enthralling >lederpeter<. danny doesnt dilly-dally and starts >lederpeter< with a bulletproof beat. an atmospheric mood and a deep bassline creat the perfect balance between crisp and soft. he succeeds in creating a wonderful and intelligent transparency. the spell of monotonous passages gets an individual boost from a fantastic kick.

summer killer tune! big with tiefschwarz, shir khan, matt walsh, turmspringer. as a record label klasse recordings acknowledge and develop the ideas between racing, electronic music and the man vs machine relationship. the concept of artist and founder luca lozano and agent daniel zedelmair, klasse holds up the classic spoked wheel design of a racing bike as a symbol of strength and unity which contrasts with the disposable doses of instantaneous gratification found on electronic music blogs and in so many discotheques that they have encountered on their travels. located within, but not constricted by, the genres of modern house and techno, klasse aims to evoke the depth and narrative of themes such as travel, movement and repetition, fusing the rich sounds of traditional wind and string instruments with the accuracy of synthesisers and drum machines.

some things seem to have a symbiotic relationship. prime example: a low-key electronic soundscape that leaves room for roaming thoughts, inhabited by an ethereal voice that colours in the musical silhouettes conjured in the minds eye. for his first ep since the >mango remixes< in 2008, sascha funke calls upon russian nina kraviz to make a feature appearance. with her releases on rekids, b77 and underground quality, this young woman has brought a rare combination of talents to bear: she sings, plays and produces with an equally astounding level of expertise. so what we have here is an encounter between of germanys most incisive techno producers and a singer of considerable charisma.

>twin< from wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: >a twin is one of two offspring produced in the same pregnancy.< we doubt there is a relation in bloodline between the two artists that come together in this release, but there is definitely a relation in sound even before one might have taken notice from the other. one from the empire, the other from a fallen socialist country, but both pretty much on a similar understanding for music. welcome the extraordinary robaphex!
