neapolitan techno powerhouse unrilis delivers a brand new ep from gaetano parisio in the form of needing chords. up there with the likes of adam beyer, ben sims and marco carola as one of the premier exponents of european techno, parisios reputation is backed up by an enviable discography and touring schedule. needing chords, backed by a remix from another neapolitan legend in rino cerrone, is a heavy-set, muscular techno-workout which builds with unbridled intensity. cerrones remix is considerably more stripped but loses none of the originals power. moodier and with a sinister edge, its an interpretation which provides an exciting slant on the original. the skippy funk of fake stuff follows and does so with a playful urgency. threaded with a snaking white noise motif that ebbs and flows under staccato keys, its hugely hypnotic while not loosing its groove. finally, its the trippy synths of program meanings that close the ep. heavily layered the track constantly and fluidly shifts with filters revealing new combinations of layers throughout while a funk licked bassline and heavy drums do the rest. hope the usa tour was fun!

barcelona is hip, barcelona is beautiful, barcelona is funky. if you dont believe us, check out these fantastic tracks by cardova. on one hand there is the speedy >baccarra<, the ideal soundtrack to your anxious search for the last tickets for the footy, with a nice little nod to the fab four. and then there is that doo-woppy and soulful cover of, err, omds >enola gaye<. now this is what we call calite!

achtung, warning, balushi is out with two new techno bombs for the summer. on the a side let me be myself is a deep aquatic adventure with a huge basline chugging along. there are some deep dark underwater effects and vocal snippets which develop into a deep stabby groove that hypnotizes anyone listening to the track. there is then a break with a beautiful vocal derived from the snippets that refreshes the listener and takes them into another dimension before bringing them back into the heavy hipnotic groove. on the aa side we have the path one hell of a tecno crossover designed to electrify and rock summer crowds all globally...with a funky meaty bassline that rolls on and perfectly complements both rasta vocals and crazy electronic synths and squelches the path is a fat groove to look out for on the hottest dancefloors...

fennesz writes: seven stars was recorded in vienna in january 2011. i recorded and mixed the album within 3 weeks. liminal and july were existing pieces which i have reworked. (i wrote an early version of liminal in a hotel room in bali in 2010). there is also a version of liminal that i have been playing live for some time. my friend steven hess, with whom i have worked before, happened to be in vienna at the time of the sessions, so i invited him to join me in the studio. christoph amann recorded the drums using a selection of his great microphones including his amazing new josephson

somewhere between center parcs in nottingham and the white sandy perfection of formentera reside two men dedicated to the art of horizontal dancing. their mums call them ampo and timm (funny names, those notts lads), though we know them by their collective name of coyote. in their minds eye, it is still 1986 and there are leathery looking germans with alarming posing pouches dancing to simply red records on the shimmering terrace at ku club while down the road alfredo is building his legendary reputation at amnesia. apart from the clued-up few, most of the brits are billeted in san antonio where the beers are cheap and the sunburn is plentiful. coyotes music, despite being produced in the east midlands conjures up a world of sun, sea and 80s glamour, while still sounding very much like today.

>celebration, florida< casts scenes of dreamy characters and stories interwoven like a block of primetime tv. among the tales: a young woman who sets off to find a secret paradise, a teenager who enters a boxing gym in catskill, ny, a late night host recounting his rise to fame to his honeybee while traveling in a private jet, shady degenerates who get lost in a mystery concerning a honda civic, a young girl who crimps her hair and spies her dead father driving down the road, a wall street scandal hits a little too close to home, and even a trip through space to find long forgotten hollywood parties and hopefully make it back there in time to walk down the red carpet. the felice brothers are: ian felice, james felice, christmas, greg farley, and david turbeville.

alex_q is not really unknown in our small family. he show off his talent last year in spring with the >endlich frühling ep< here on mgf. this time he will be even more intimate. as the name suggests, its all about a girl. but who are we to talk about this. there are much more talented people who have done this much better than we can. we just let the music talk. enjoy!

sao paulos techno titan returns. gui boratto needs little introduction - after all he has played pretty much every corner of the globe, placing himself as one of the most in-demand producers and performers in dance music today. its summer and kompakts bomb for the season is about to explode. just in time for his extensive european tour throughout july. the drill embraces the classic kompakt shaffel but delivered in a chalice of class that only gui boratto is capable of drinking from. a roaring bass line that sways side to side in layers of euphoric harmony. bold – brazen. boratto. stems from hell is classic boratto. guitar-esque chording launches this depth charge that is just pure build. tension and release – you sense this track can almost breath on its own. the moments are near perfect in this swelling that reaches a fever pitch right when you think it would never come. there will be more from gui boratto in 2011....stay tuned.

yellorange must be considered one of the most prolific house music labels in history. founded in 1998 by the legendary tony humphries, the label closed its doors after a short run only in 2003 when strictly rhythm (who handled its distribution) collapsed. in those few years, the label put out nothing but quality music, with many - if not all - of these releases being considered a classic nowadays as you would imagine, there are lots of unreleased mixes to be discovered, and for years the fans have eagerly awaited the return of the label in hope some of these gems would see the light of the day. finally the wait is over and yellorange is back with >yellorange history - the kept it to ourselves mixes<, a collection of previously unreleased mixes by kerri chandler, paul simpson and david harness available on limited coloured vinyl. first come, first served!

think in roy ayers meets salsoul orchestra, earth wind & fire & fania all starts, the fusion is all in there… from a contemporary point of view…

the latest immerse cut sees the label tapping once again into the fertile waters of haunting, leftfield 4/4, showcasing the hitherto unknown talents of el kid. the eagle-eared out there may have picked up on the young echo radio show, which features sam kidel (to his folks) alongside west-country compatriots kahn, vessel and zhou showcasing their new tracks and mixes. for most though, this will be the first they hear of the bristol-born, brighton-based producer. on both tracks the synthetic sheen of detroit techno gets refigured into an almost downtempo kind of house music. the melody is king, whatever sonic texture it might manifest in, leaving you with ample layers to get engrossed in. that same quintessential yearning quality ensures that these first offerings from el kid fit perfectly into the immerse canon. it will shake the right kind of dancefloor, but it will also tug at the right kind of heart-strings as well.

the boston based alternative rock band buffalo tom formed in 1986. the band around singer/ guitarist bill janovitz became one of the more popular alternative rock bands by the mid 1990s. the 1992 album let me come over was truly the great leap forward for the band, sounding richer, more imaginative, and more emotionally powerful than anything they d recorded before.

etruria beats latest release has been done by the new neapolitan talent duo viesse. there are two original mixes: >secrets< and >walk<. >secrets< is the journey track made of steel grooves, stabby chords and strings, everything moving on a restless bassline. >walk<, instead, is a perfect combination between airy chords and heavy drums, flowing in a killer groove crowned by the vocals ... walk!! c mon!
>secrets< has also been remixed by arnaud le texier, owner of safari electronique, who has his latest releases on cocoon and bass culture. the last track on the vinyl is >slowly<, that has been remixed from tennis, aka manfredi romano, owner of life and death, who has given a peculiar touch at 116 bpm to the release.

you might not be aware of this artist or lp… but thats all about to change. this is the holy grail of cosmic disco… that disco kids dont even know yet. released in 1978 on little known inter global records, this lp is one of the most in demand, expensive & undiscovered albums of this genre. just check discogs! not much is known about the group, where their from or what they went on to do, but that doesnt stop every track on this album being a bonafide killer. arguably the albums highlight is jamaica electric, but unlike most cosmic disco lps where there is just one main track, every outing on this lp is unique and of the highest quality. cosmic, mind bending disco at its finest… sounding so fresh it couldve been made by prins thomas or lindstrom this year.

fina has been soaking up the sunshine over the past few weeks procrastinating over the best time to release its next summer cut. with global warming rubbing everyone up the right way, we feel now is as good a time as any to drop fina 004. originally from south africa, esa mervin granger may now be more glasgow concrete towers than table top mountain but his grooves are pure house pedigree. from his releases under his mervin granger moniker to exclusive remixes for ooft! the cape town cat was a natural choice for a very >summer< shuffling three track jaunt.title track veloore is immediately recognisable from its soft analogue piano chords, amalgamated with a dreamy filtered vocal and a bass line which nods to the acidic side of deep house. on the remix is erefaan pearce, a fellow south african who pins soul to every production he lays his hands on. reworking vocals and bass lines into an infectious frenzy that is almost impossible to resist, erefaan draws that sunshine feeling from every angle. think las salinas and you are nearly there. completing the ep on the flipside is galaxy, a deep vocal number paying homage to all the lazy dogs. cosmic deep house aimed purely at the terrace. fina records 004: we present… esa

support by richie hawtin, m.a.n.d.y., andreas henneberg, kombinat100 and many more. featuring deep atmospheres and altogether slightly more electronic rhythms, the second part of the catchpenny & cosmos series rounds this double release off by an even greater variety of sound. just like its name implies, the dark tower hotel is a wondrous and mysterious place. upon intricate double bass chords and trippy synthesizer riffs, female singing from times long gone mixes elegantly into the hypnotic arrangement like a melodic leitmotif. in his remix, mollono.bass lives up to the last four letters of his name and delivers a rolling groove. the jaeger gains experience with acid, at least during the second part of this title which distinguishes itself by a minimal character and enigmatic wind instrument sounds. last but not least there is morgiana , a laid-back song that does not aim the dance floor. its catchy gypsy vibe, created by lots of classical instruments, reflects the remarkable compositional talent of be svendsen in a very entertaining way.

the three tracker gets off with a lovely post basic channel, dub techno interpretation of a techno track for the warmer days. the b side does a great job in fusing soft beats and low key melodies with raw structure,drive and pressure. plangent records slowly becomes the face for the otherside of berlin techno together with a label such as giegling. gritty deep techno, with some influences from dubstep here and there... slowly moving away from the much abused detroit reference. definitely worth the listen!

in the south of panama lies the darien gap, a vast unpenatrable jungle swamp that divides central and south america. it is so hostile that even the pan american highway stops there in what would otherwise be a non-stop highway stretching from alaska to argentina. many explorers never returned and it is believed that the 10.000 square mile piece of green hell is home to secret guerilla bases, drug labs and many mysterious & dangerous animals.

the neo051 - kasparov - keep going is a 100% musthave for your vinyl collection!

leaving in their wake a trail of mass seduction, the wolf + lamb crew are back from their recent worldwide dj kicks tour, bestowing two of the sonic jewels that lit up those clubs, rooftops and basements. main players gadi mizrahi, soul claps eli goldstein and greg paulus of no regular play, impart the w + l effect with the >lucky paul remixes< courtesy of somethinksounds. while gadi mizrahi & zev eisenberg of wolf + lamb are in no small part responsible for the sexy slo-mo revolution in rnb and disco inltrated house music, they cannot be accused of languishing in the hype of their own movement or direction in sound. instead, the label is backing a seemingly endless stream of talent in north america and beyond, consistently unearthing and nurturing artists that share the same ethos and intrinsic approach to creating timeless music that is not built to rush, and dissipate but drive into your soul and set up home there. here, the new collaborative case in point is berlin resident and new zealand native lucky paul

in denmark, there rages a lively and experimental techno scene - and its not only a recent phenomenon. the best proof are phono and kemi, two danish imports to the berlin record label, highgrade records. the two chaps complement each other in a musically virtuoso fashion: phono, jacob thiessen, spent his childhood playing around with sequencers and drum machines: over the years he has stuck to this passion and as such, has developed a reputation as an experienced house and techno producer. kim kemi, by contrast, has been a dj since the beginning, and since the 90s has been one of the key figures in the copenhagen club scene. together they have not only performed regularly at the biggest events in denmarks capital, but have also ensured through their many releases, ever changing accents and atmospheres on the turntables. this wealth of combined musical experience can be heard instantly on their latest outing for highgrade – >decompose<. the three tracks, >decompose<, >exterminators< & >last night< assemble rhythms that come from punk, elegant voices and dizzying loops a multi-layered sound excursion. the result is a perfectly produced ep, but one that has not been ironed smooth. with the >made in denmark< seal of quality, phono and kemi bring some extra depth to the party attitude

nice price deal !!! peaktime! this one definitely qualifies as a summer record. a.j. holmes is the self-titled >king of the new electric hi-life<. after moving back to london three years ago the guitarist and dj has played quite a role in the booming afrobeat scene there and formed a new band called >the hackney empire<. for the summer of seven series he contributes two remixes of tracks from the very best and xylitol that are simply made for the summertime love.

open air 2011 !!! this is definitely a serious movie, but in this case quite large. the swiss cowboy mario zar returns with his second ep on leutral the soundtrack to the movie the ocean plant. give the way he has managed to human emotions amid societal cold again, has something very enchanting. the very first track is the title theme from the film of the same. open air heartbreaking mood with an incredible catchy tune. finally one has the feeling again - that it is - the ultimate track - summer sun sunshine - large movies 2011 - 30 degree in the shade - and then this track. martin brunner has made a realistic study and there is the typical brunner sound with 3d effects and full speed ahead. in the film, two water plants are fighting for a piece of land on the ocean floor. they also use modified shiruken. the special feature is the integrated facebook app that posts the current status of the strikes. but otherwise the film is bursting with new-fashioned bio-weapons. a high-level cold saw turns the two water plants and over again in his way. at the end of the film, the two water plants enthusiasts. what they have experienced before you can watch and listen in this awesome movie. now playing in your cinema worldwide!

for the first album ever being released on ki we invited biodub, a producer/dj from the north of germany, who impressed us with his fusion of dub, techno, electronica and is a musician throughout. bringing in his experience as the drummer of instrumental band noetics and based on a minimalistic foundation, his tracks are playful in a microscopically way. in between deep bass lines and characteristic dub chords, various sounds coming from field recording sessions and sometimes also acoustic instruments, making this piece of music extremely warm and alive. biodub tries to transform visual impressions into his music. he finds most of these impressions in nature but sometimes also in machines or buildings in connection with their environment. the album is equally comfortable on the dance floor as in the living room. but you would rather enjoy his music on an open field in the nature than on your couch. the album will be released as a full 2 x12 inch lp, and cd in folded hardcover with photography, graphic and layout coming from ki s amélie kai and since it leaves so much space for interpretation, there will be a 12 inch-single with remixes of stereociti and koi.

here comes the eighth release in the line, pressure cooked by christian wunsch. three slices of fine modern techno, but with strong roots on tradition. buried mistakes opens fire with clean drum programming and punchy beats. spacey arpeggios and subtle drones are the makings of this movie. on the flip side, complete surrender uses similar rhythm coordinates, clean percussion sounds programmed with extreme taste, constantly evolving until the strings come in, creating a sci-fi futuristic mood, perfect for techno travellers. inevitable war is the last piece slower tempo, intelligent drone work out, dark atmospheres lying on a single kick, growing to make a complex beat as the minutes go on. they call it deep techno out there. a departure from the hard edged sounds on behalf of a mental way of understanding techno.

jason little returns to the frontline of the hardtechno scene with his jasons mask series. with his cd just out there and promoting the label big time with loads of gigs and hardcore beats, jason little teams up with the creme de la creme of the scene with his first various artists ep. check the sound you all know by jason and his friends svetec, sml, montek, instigator and madelephant. big hardcore techno beats!

the beginning of a new era. founded in 2005 by thomas wendel aka don williams the beloved seminal imprint with cult status mojuba is facing the next level with the debut album kawasaki by stereociti from tokyo. when in 2005 the first sounds of mojuba were introduced to the world, people quickly realized that there is something very special going on different to the usual house or techno business … it was something more emotional, more personal, somewhat more deeply rooted! stereociti aka ken sumitani is truly one of japans finest when it comes to uncompromising underground dance music with heart & soul, whether it is the realm of deep house music or the darker moods of detroit techno. you can actually feel that his roots go far back into the early days of electronic club music but never lose sight of the history of soul, funk or dub. his debut kawasaki, named after his hometown, is delivering the quintessence of what is considered as the mojuba sound. being capable of such a musical sense, it was no wonder that the other mojuba family members nick solé, sven weisemann and oracy welcomed stereociti very warm. so if you are new to the world of mojuba, please tune in and enjoy the journey! kawasaki is a timeless piece of music, equipped with everything you need for an outstanding album experience. it will take you by the hand from the very first moments and will be there for you second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day until you let it go

following his two recent singles on scubas hotflush recordings, london based george fitzgerald is back with his much-anticipated third release and his debut for aus music. titled silhouette, the three-track ep includes two originals and a remix from american producer john roberts. fitzgerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, r&b and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. on silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and fitzgeralds signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. reset is eight minutes of forward thinking uk garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of detroit techno. for the silhouette remix, roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on dial records, glass eights. a breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment. in addition to silhouette, fitzgerald currently has remixes out for french house producer brawther on secretsundaze and uk bass artist throwing snow, as well as an upcoming ep on hotflush and a track on the labels recent compilation, back and 4th. this year will also bring the founding of man make music, a new label fitzgerald is starting with friends.

remerc is no new face to the scene. he has been active for quite some time in the german techno scene and has recently remixed butchs track >muskatnuss< on the trapez ltd 100 anniversary compilation. he had his breakthrough in 2010 with the track >tiny calf< which ended up on the cocoon compilation >party animals< mixed by marco carola and nick curly. remerc opens his release with >ruhewolf<, a restless funkedelic rocker with a beat that juggles elements in a loose and totally cool way. the track is spiced up with elements of surreal bliss and could go on forever were there not the limitations of the vinyl. on the flipside we find an hanne & lore remix that tightens and fattens up the beat and pimps up the basslines. adding some twisted sounds ... making it a clubber par excellence. >just a bards tale< is a unique remerc track and stands out from all the productions he has done so far. here new wave coloured edgy vocals meet a post-detroit string-chord arrangement. sounds adventurous and daring? well it is to some degree... but recall >no more words< by carl craig from 1991 but executed in a dead modern way.

newly signed to planet mu, travis stewart aka machinedrum is known to the electronic music cognoscenti as one of the finest, yet inexplicably underexposed producers out there. after an extended ep last year on the luckyme label he is putting out this four tracker followed by an album with mu, and his new tracks and live performances are garnering some excited attention and new fans and supporters. the songs on this ep are light and sun-hued with psychedelic, colourful sounds and melodies. clocking in at around 160 bpm, they work within ands alongside the rhythmic conventions of footwork and jungle, with a hefty dose of uk-flavoured bassomatic house thrown in for good measure.

strictly limited vinyl with no re-press, silkscreened artwork by house of traps, clear vinyl, housed in japanese poly jackets, vakula has been releasing some quality tracks over the last few months but once again he delivers his finest work to the firecracker/unthank stable. a strong contrast to the debut unthank ep from bakey ustl, this 3 tracker contains influences as diverse as aphex twin, claro intellecto or even dbx. heralding the release of several vakula eps on both labels over the next 3 months, this clear vinyl 10 inch is strictly limited. the sleeves will, as ever, have silk-screened artwork wrapped in a japanese poly jacket. act fast folks as there will be no re-press!

ahead of a shake it summer residency at amnesia in ibiza, alongside his dj/production partner layo, bushwacka releases his first solo ep of 2011 - the two-track west side / energy ep. westside - this monster is very personal to bushwacka! inspired from the sound of the biggest german techno dj on the planet, sven vath, and the musical magic he wove on the decks over the last ten years in ibiza, bushwacka! has drawn his feeling from this and countless memorable nights there and created a massive dancefloor weapon that has been tweaked and tested around the world. westside creates chaos and euphoria in equal measures and is pure peak time magic. energy is a very different breed of music, again influenced from parties, but this time his own - the morning sessions, the after hours, the dawn chorus - deep, sexy, melancholy, but tough and naughty - this is serious underground tech acid get down dirty music.

there. is. nothing. better. than. a. clear. blue. sky. after the storm. taken literally, the track listing for barems debut lp represents that fleeting moment when nature puts its house in order, when calm and clarity triumph over chaos. of course it also works perfectly as a metaphor for those fuzzy moments of self-reflection while sprawled on a hotel bed after another mind-blowing night at the controls, or while taking stock of a musical journey thats about to culminate in a debut album for the internationally renowned label that motivated you to start making music in the first place. this is the vinyl version of barems debut album, with five specially edited tracks for all vinyl-lovers

subtlety is not the first word used in connection with most djs, but there is much more the métier of germany s gregor tresher than simply playing records, as lights from the inside attest: just as a painting or photograph appears to move if one stares at it long enough, with close listening the stratified grooves and melodies assembled on gregor s stunning third full-lenght artist album reveal an organic universe of shifting sound. meticulous attention to the latter element—melody—was of utmost concern to the frankfurt resident. not obvious, eight-bar earworms that would quickly exhaust their welcome, but musical lines that could repeat, develop and intertwine in different patterns. in this regard, lights from the inside harks back to gregor tresher s earlier releases, but as always his sound aesthetic continues to evolve in new directions.

steve lorenz is the guy you will have to look for in the next months. he works around many musical influences. the first track >overclock< evolves into fat basses, bursted kicks & percussions. >overclock< remix, operated by damon wild international acclaimed and legendary synewave boss label (joe beltram/ jeff mills / adam beyer…,), results in an energic deeper techno, mental beats & dubby influences, a mind blast! the track >viraga< keeps the finest line. industrial noises & subliminal female voices are twisting in speakers & surely ll keep your head! close your eyes & start the journey. closing the race, >viraga< remix was realized by narrow friend kane roth (smallroom / lessismore), south french producer who recently moved to berlin. her production means well being quality, there is no coincidence if she has been remixed by maetrik & monoloc some months ago. keeping essential elements of the original viraga , she dropped a muscle main floor edit! hands up!

to remain a discerning platform for underground artists with integrity is easier said than done in todays music market. alphahouse vows never to forget its roots in the afterhours basements from whence it came. in that spirit, we would like to welcome two up-and-coming italians to the family with release number twenty. good friends alessandro stefanio aka buck, and andrea santoro aka santorini, both from puglia, proudly represent the new school of deep thinking producers from a country not generally known for such restraint. if you have been following santorini or bucks output of late, you will know that italy is more than just the land of shuffled techno.. there is a deeper music movement in the country, and these guys are two of the best.

bang the boxs second vinyl outing is a loved up three tracker from label resident and co-manager brett johnson... lovin u- the birds chirping in the intro let it be known that this is one for the summer time. vocal harmonies laid over true house beats and a full-on bassline seal the deal for this one to be a future classic... sweet love- continuing the theme, sweet love rolls down memory lane with a catchy vocal, and bretts signature robo-funk rhythms. the rolling bass line and spaced out chords bring it all together to seal the deal as a dance floor killer... love by my side- this track is last but definitely not the least. its one for all our slow house peeps put there willing to let the slow-burn take the dance floor in its clutches. the recycling main line is so infectious that you wont want the track to ever end…

with the sun out and festival season just around the corner, the 2 bears return with their biggest crowd pleasers yet on the bear hug ep out on southern fried. equipped for both barmy afternoons in blissed-out fields and after hours naughtiness in the darkest dance tents, the 2 bears set the seal on their trademark brand of house revisionism. opening up with take a look around, 2 bears take us from techy intro to full on house inclusivity inside seven minutes, with rafs understated vocals joined by star-to-be alice gold. then there is the bashy jump-up instrumental in my brain is like a computer, to set us up for an mc’d walk through of the 2 bears dancefloor doctrine, bear hug. as for the ep closer banger, the title speaks for itself – a tune that cuts deeper and harder than any 2 bears track so far

fragen documents the extraordinary shedding of skin of one of the most important german electronic groups. hans-joachim roedelius was there from the beginning, first as a trio with conrad schnitzler and dieter moebius (kluster), from 1971 on as a duo with dieter moebius (cluster), and since 2010 as a duo with with onnen bock (qluster). bock (born 1973) and roedelius have been meeting up to explore new musical directions together since 2007. fragen is the first part of an exceptional trilogy, a grandiose new beginning, backed up by forty years of tradition.
