nyc (via paris) based dj and producer sid vaga returns to nickodemus wonderwheel recordings with another 12 inch full of exotic deep house vibes sure to light up dance floors everywhere. it is an impressive follow-up to his genuinely well-received *brazuca* single from last year. on the a side, sid delivers *na na ye*, a driving cut with a pulsing bass line and hypnotic african chant that pushes the tune forward before getting flipped into a percussive section alongside deep and subtle synths. on the flip *manouche* can be found, a late night house tune with psychedelic balkan guitars and swirling gypsy vocal samples punctuating the track. rounding out the single, valencian producer oscar barila (plastic city) gives *manouche* a truly funky remix with a squelchy 80s new wave style bass line, thumping house beat, and irresistible synth work coming together for a real after-hours nightclub workout.

new music from the swedish junkyard guys. mr tophat and art alfie delivering two modern house jackers with a little touch of that nordic touch that aways seem to balance things and bring some open space in the music.

overs and skaters, come one, come all because frank & tony are back for their the third ep in the >frank & tony presents… < series on scissor and thread. this time the boys search for affection has lead them to their first collaboration with their label mate, the mysterious… in a sexy way… black light smoke! breath game delivers twelve plus minutes of tantric rhythm thats sure to spur your urge to merge. on the flip corbu returns for an indie-minded acid-tinged get down made for filthy frothy fun.

ezlv craft playfully luxurious extended-mix radio hits from the bi-curious, bygone dance-meets-soul era. its sound stream in song form, luscious and light, brought to juicy lime-life with cool-curated club samples, late 70s horn porn, and elegant dj creationism.

it was his signature and his sound, and if there is one record that both derrick and myself couldn t be more honoured to re-release as a testament to his legacy, a record that defined kenny as a dj, and a record that keeps that light shining, then it s this one. viva the dark lord.

burkhardts latest stroke, including the hit delight. now we are back again with a charming selection of remixes, including work by tobi neumann and julien veniel aka djulz. tobi neumanns remix reminds the attentive listener to the old days of oslo. it is so to speak on the point. its light, but still complex in a special way. tobi carefully unhinged the catchy vocals of delight, added it at some points and put his glance over it. the b-side is home to djulzs interpretation of pianissimo. a dark and powerful house track, that finds its glory in its simplicity. a subtle piano sample is the basis for a forward moving drum pattern. here and there an eerie vocal shot rises and guides the dancer through the musical mind of djulz.

vinyl only! two machines, two people, a lot of ideas. thats andiamo. born of passion, experience, and idealism, it was only a matter of time until this project saw the light. two characters, two ideas, one project. andiamo. the names of the songs need no explanation.

ftw recordingz proudly presents the first solo release of elia vens!
with making his solo debut on ftw recordingz, elia vens only reveals a small fragment of his musical diversity. on side a, he really pulls out all stops with the track >jamon<. the distinctive baseline and the pumping kicks on this track will definitely light the fire for an inferno on the dance floor. high spirits guaranteed!
in contrast, the flying flute edit doesnt come like a bull at a gate and initially appears slightly atmospheric and subtle. the deep toms and analogous drums still care for a drifty groove and colour the track in a fragile paint of house. emotions culminate in the hypnotic flute playing right in the middle of the track which hijacks you to a journey of elia vens. enjoy your flight!

assemble music returns with a three-track ep from colognes david joseph aka st. joseph, exploring further the refined, tripping path forged on the labels previous release from daze maxim. the pianos, vocal snatches and ambient hiss of josephs releases on platzhirsch are present and correct, but here the jazz flourishes are reduced down into something far slicker. these tracks have been prepared using a keen blade, and none sharper than >personal dancefloor<. heavy drum programming and a rumbling bottom end bring to mind theo parrish in his moodier moments, but the deal is sweetened by light piano, garage-like vocal samples and a deep, burning 4 love bassline. >indigo< spins the duke ellington classic into a spiralling, shuffling chugger that will bring a 30s harlem spirit to enterprising dancefloors. move the needle to the b2, though, for the eps party hit. written in 2009 and reflecting that years raw arrangements and joyous samples, >wave/table/muscle< finally gets a vinyl release, proving this sound endures to this day. expect more of the same from assemble music with their next release featuring vera and ricardo villalobos.

hotmix presents joe drive. known for his releases on mathematics and lux records. he offers an excellent ep with shades dark and deep

exceptionnel danceable electronic tracks with undeniable hitpotential. heartbeast have been quietly digging their own tunnel under the borders of genres and categorization in order to dig through to the light and influence audiences with pop appeal and style as well as artistic presence, new pathways for soul music and astoundingly independent professionalism.

decoy 01 showcases southampton artist chris colburn, a regular feature on alan fitzpatricks 8 sided dice imprint. a selection of 3 techno gems made entirely for the dance floor. acid whip is the lead track, big drums and a nerve cutting acid line create this frenzy of a track. universal oddity brings in a tonal bell ploughing through light percussion and chris signature kick. no smoke is last but not least delivered with a touch of soul through the melodic stabs and swirling hazy noise effects, taking it even deeper. hans bouffmhyre adds his touch to the ep with his remix of acid whip, pulling away from the acid and focusing on the drums and effects, the sleaze and electric deluxe artist doesnt fail to deliver as the track flows, drops and lifts with this warehouse style monster.
decoy records is launching in 2012 at a time where electronic music has become very exciting. with a grass roots approach and a nod to talented uk artists, the story begins.

slowly building, soul-soothing, and disco-fuelled house with a nod to both the great masters from chicago and the new electronic breed. lisbon producer and lux resident ramboiage likes to take it slow to take things further. >del fuego< kicks off modestly with a simple beat and some light percussion, creating and eerie mood. but then some tasty, disco-fuelled heavy house kicks in, and the tune starts to roll unstoppable, riding on a horn hook. funky like a train, as the mighty equals would say. spanish om records darling al velilla steps up the pace a little bit and lets the original float over some tasty discohouse beats and eighties-flavoured synths.

the same people behind emotional rescue launch as fine sister imprint in the shape of emotional rescue, with a near perfect insight into how the label will operate thanks to nzambi - a quite stunning full length album from jason letkiewicz under his alan hurst moniker. if you consider yourself an avid purchaser of vinyl, you will no doubt have added some letkiewicz heat to your collection in recent times, with excellent releases as steve summers and innergaze in recent times. the alan hurst project sees the brooklyn producer in more laid back form, indulging his passion for library sounds and experimental electronics with just as much aplomb. allegedly commissioned to soundtrack a film on modern haitian voodoo, nzambi is a woozily intoxicating thirteen track set that opens your senses to a true darkness in this producers palette of sounds that has not really been explored before.

nice price deal !!! dennis busch is an artist who is well-known to all pingipung fans for his >james din a4< contributions to our catalogue. this man of many faces has also developed a reputation as visual artist. therefore he decides to present his music under the same name: dennis busch - which we think might be his real one. dennis busch has delivered an enormous output of odd, melodic techno tracks in the last decade – mostly on his own now unfortunately vanished esel imprint (this means donkey).

to celebrate the rerelease of the three classic to rococo rot records on city slang between 1997 and 2001, we have asked two friends and fans to rework their favourite tracks of these albums.
four tets kieran hebden chose the brooding minimal collage >he loves me< from the bands 1997 archetypal release >veiculo< and, like a prism in singular beam of light, his remix reveals the songs true glistening content.
mute label founder and longtime to rococo rot afficionado daniel miller teamed up with london based producer gareth jones to give >cars<, from the bands impeccable second album >the amateur view< a compassionate modification into a ... well, lets call it a krautrock disco truck.

miguel campbell is a burgeoning young star that shot to notoriety in 2011 after something special, his debut release on hot creations became one of the biggest tracks of the year.

we are back with another panoramic journey. max essa needs little introduction, in our circles he is the shining light when it comes to the newer balearic flavours we enjoy.

the second single to come from miaoux miaouxs acclaimed >light of the north< album, the limited >autopilot< e.p brings us the original track backed with a heavy-duty line-up remixing select tracks from the album. the original title-track is a glittering synth-fuelled hymn to heartbreak, which incorporates elements of bass and hip-hop, while recalling the stylistic flourishes of boards of canada. reworking >hey sound!<, glasgows very own auntie flo and esa bring their exotic stomp to the table: a percussive journey soaked in dubwise holy water. tom furses remix of >stop the clocks< is almost like a reigned-in, beat driven version of john elliots outer space project, thick cosmic ritual elixir bubbling over the sides. already having made his name on skreams disfigured dubz, echo park takes on >autopilot<, turning the original into a cast-iron lesson in militant rhythm. echo parks real talent however lies with integrating elements of the original seamlessly with his own punishing sound palette.

moody yet not morbid, futuristic but not foreign, modern but not without class.

psst! shtum is the new sublabel of dresdens uncanny valley and it is created for proper techno and raw house tracks, music best listened to in a room full of strobe light and fog. right at the start youll get monomood with three dark and powerful tracks. parameter one is one of those techno stompers you cant help but fiercely nod your head to. the lyrics in the crafter might suggest it but actually nobody is afraid of the dark. not even after hell breaks loose with unrelenting chords. also, vault takes no prisoners while keeping the cellar door shut with its nasty acid lines and raw drum work. the musical concept has been interpreted visually by aram haydeyan and uncanny valley artist jacob stoy.

100% silk begs and pleads for all things octo – that eight-sided honest octagon: sweet, sad, shy, hopeful, blissful, light, lifting, longing. going deeper, swelling higher than his first >let me see you< 12 inch, >oh love< unifies touching human experience with technology, sound, and rhythm in a totality of vision.

>bored of shit< is the first release from new label k!ssa records. it follows dollskabeats debut >zodiac rising / no breaks no sleep< ep, which grabbed the attention of the music press, radio 1 and 6 music back in 2009. an electronic punk sneer and light-hearted grump at the state of modern popular culture, >bored of shit< is perhaps not what people might have expected as a follow up from dollskabeat but either way, it is a sure fire dance-floor filler. the ep also features an exquisite remix from vakula who described the track as impossible not to dance to and guest bass playing from firecrackers fudge fingas. keep your ears peeled for future dollskabeat release >so long for a small storm< - a mould-breaking piece of electronic music that will pick up where she left off. pressed on 180g vinyl and mastered by matt colton at air studios.

with recent releases for internasjonal and tim sweeneys beats in space records, los angeles based producer secret circuit (otherwise known as eddie ruscha) has had a breakthrough year with his brittle synth jams, taking inspiration from balearic disco and minimal wave alike. however, he has been a prolific producer since 1996, and this record on emotional response, entitled tropical psychedelics, collects productions from rusha up until 2010 that have previously only seen the light of day on cassette releases. described by the label as a >balearic-tropical-afro-psychedelic whirl<, the album packs a rich palette of analogue textures into its ten tracks, from the afro dub of >afrobotics<, through the hazy, beatless combination of piano and analogue synth on >psouvenirs< to the psychedelic tropicalia of >foggy twilights<.

4 tracks, taken from the cd album! in >shortcake strategy<, fairytale-like melodies are backed with thought provoking harmonies that pave the way for an explicitly visual experience. we have been introduced to a new face of the berlin-based producer. shortcake is a simple recipe. it doesnt take a lot of planning or much thought or attention when preparing it, and in the end, it will be light, fluffy, sweet, and perfectly satisfying. falko might say the same about his approach to the creation of >shortcake strategy<, yet the end product sees his most dynamic and emotional productions to date, leaving us with the feeling that this comes from a strategy that requires far more thought, and is far more complicated than that of a sugary dessert.

the follow up to mumford & sons 2009 debut album sigh no more, produced by markus dravs.

daphni aka caribou mit seiner elektronischen seite... 9 meilensteine auf zwei vinyls im fetten klappcover (gatefoald cover)!

this latest release from hizatron and bashley galvanises the usual wigflexian- gloop with a more industrial edge and a superb implementation of found sounds. a darker pallet underpins the record but this is inverted then lifted with inserts of scattered euphoria. whilst all that is synonymous with the current face of techno lurks consistently in the background throughout, in an almost redemptive fashion, we are hoisted upward from a chromatic descent and set forth onto a crisp, bouncy path peppered with light. the depth of stereo field is utilised perfectly here and the use of dimension is something of a staple for all of those who call wigflex home. hizatron is known for his seamless arrangements, catchy melodies and punchy percussion and this record has that unquestionable tron swagger but the familiar sound is accelerated by new influences from bashley who although a relatively unknown member of the family brings a fresh range of timbres that compliment hizas signature grooves.

foam fangs could be a term used to describe silks preferred take on that too-easily dismissed 70s dancefloor dementia of disco – the soft bite, love nibble, mirrorball on steady/ready perma-revolve. jesse reiner (jonas reinhardts first mister, alongside past/part-time collaborators like phil manley of trans am and damon palermo of mi ami/magic touch), who never quite had the kranky krinkle of his ohm-ambient labelmates, travels head-on, tomorrowland-style, through long-form cosmic moroder constellations of >foam fangs<. nothing frothy about it, though there is a bit of the rubbery in reiner’s bounce-about, cool, funky kraut-disco. suddenly we are beaming back to a time when the world looked forward, envisioning a 21st century decked with silver, chrome, and neoprene. it is a sonic space both transparent and shiny, the metallic ding and cold ribbon of data, scrolling through infinite space. the opener, >foam fangs<, transports us instantly into an ever-expanding universe of sound and light at once fanning out and folding in on itself. variations on that theme continue as the jonas journey oscillates through the beat-beyond.

maurizio vitiello is now a regular artist in the metroline camp. his functional grooves have seen the light of day in various shapes and forms from the very early days all the way to the ultra-successful music on ep released in 2011.

for our 40th release we are very pleased to welcome on deeply rooted house argentinas own jonas kopp (ostgut ton, curle, krill music, ear to ground, traut). this 4 tracks ep gives a good example of his diverse and still very defined techno recording skills. a side goes from the very straight forward and somehow mental reforce to the deep and abstract journey of proteus 81, while b side kicks of with the somehow balearic and positive green fingers to end up with the quest of light!

(white marbled vinyl) following big strick (fxhe records), mlz (demdike stare, modern love) remix part 1, we are very happy to announce remix part 2/2 with brun (of swayzak) and young protege of initial cuts, enola.

daniel stefanik is one of the techno and house newcomers of the last years. his carefreeness as a dj behind the decks and his likeable appearance are literally distinctive for a new generation of young, down-to-earth producers from germany, which are the result of the influence of väth, villalobos and hawtin on the one side, and solid but hedonistic house on the other. whereas many producers nowadays have dedicated themselves to only one musical direction, the influence of kerri chandler, chez damier or kevin saunderson is clearly noticeable in stefanik’s music. his longplay debut for cocoon recordings is a mirror of all these influences and yet it’s so up-to-date and contemporary like only few other techno and house albums today.

a label that prides itself on picking up new talent and letting them shine, electronique digital has made quite a name for itself in a short space of time. the manchester-based label has already been home to one of the years big anthems with finnebassens huge >if you only knew<. but it is not just about anthems and big tunes, there is also a focus on the deeper end of house music whilst retaining labels commitment to disco and summer vibes in every release. in other words, though they specialise in deep house, but it is never too serious or morose.
early dj support from: maceo plex, noir, andre crom, waifs & strays, wildkats, the mekansim, tom budden, giom, seth troxler, maxxi soundsystem, flashmob, miguel puente, cera alba, downtown party network, lula circus, amine edge, maher daniel, jay west & many more!

nice price deal !!! here comes a record that shouldnt have been released in the first place. who first started to circulate the cd-r with the blue inscription waiting for kim / we get high is totally unknown. the more known though, is who has been playing these two tracks, the one subtly uplifting, the other cranky dark, over the last few months. its still an unsolved riddle who is responsible for those two very divergent (but obviously coming from a single source productions. the fact that now these two tracks are coming out as a white label doesnt shed any more light on the affair either. but will please the dj and club world nonetheless.

breakbot aka thibaut berland - ed bangers newest and brightest star announces his debut album >by your side<. having delighted dancefloors around the world with his infectious discoid funk of baby im yours and fantasy, and killer re-rubs for justice and metronomy amongst others, one out of two is the first single to be taken from this multi-instrumentalists highly anticipated debut album by your side.
double 12 inch vinyl release, including cd-copy of the album

the ep kicks off with empire of dust, an epic and brooding electro beast with powerful, mechanoid drumwork and majestic synth vistas that manages to be euphoric yet dark and grounded at the same time. it was this track whose intent later gave rise to the shape and form of the other 3 tracks on the empires ep.

of course the boys are back! dave jarvis and diesel float another two killers out there for the more discerning dancefloors.
first up is nite dance were are dynamic duo flip their wigs and slice and dice a giorgio moroder classic. dark, sleazy and downright dirty and the right amount of piano for the balearic faithful!
ce soir is a go go styled percussion funk monster with a female euro vocal that just pulls you in. from saint - tropez to the dark back streets of dalston this has classic written all over it.
this man is one of touchstones of the cosmic adriatic scene championed by the likes of italian dance legend daniele baldelli from back in the day. resurrected and flipped for a new audience. light my soul!
