when it comes to and strikes you, it works. this is the only thing that rules only300 familys sound, an edm label born in milan in the end of 2011. tech house with no strings attached is the reference point to start from and experiment with, together with the diverse influences of a genre in progress. our musical research - coming from only300 (milan) staff vision - goes beyond ideological bounds between means of production: no matter if its digital or analogue, the point is the emotion behind the sound, even if it comes to your legs, heart or brain. o300f sees flying high records - not just dance floor/club/listening oriented - and it thinks that labels are just gilded cages.

after debuting with an albums worth of experimental, ambient electronic explorations from the hugely talented nyc based jason letkiewicz under his alan hurst moniker, the emotional response label maintains such high standards with their second release. the focus shifts to timothy j fairplay, a uk producer whose growing discography is proving to be impressive too. ears should still be ringing to his world unknown released homage to ancient egypts predilection for psychedelic drugs and its little surprise he has been hand picked for the debut release on sir weatheralls new vinyl initiative bird scarer. the four tracks that make up somebody, somewhere retain that dubby mid tempo poise that permeated fairplays output to date, though he seems to revel in the freedom to experiment emotional response encourages, focusing more on developing expansive patterns of synths on tracks like >aim for the yellow sector< and the title track. special mention too for >i do not believe< which comes on in a deep medi doing digidub style!

big with m.a.n.d.y.,tiefschwarz , pan-pot, butch,rodriguez jr, sasse, kiki, deepchild, marco resmann, catz n dogz, coyu, martin eyerer, chloe , cormac & benoit c.. kai & holger return from their stateside adventures with matthew pervert on get physical. ‘matthew pervert’ is a slow buidling groove attack. saucy percussion sets the mood for a deep pumping bass under chords. a sassy vocal adds to the analogue ambience, worked in a coat of reverb and doused with delay. a sexy sound for steamy nights on the neverending dancefloor sessions smash tv are known for. the second track, ‘please’, starts immediately with a deep horn falling under kicks. a touch of techno emerges from the darkness and drives us insane. followed by deep vocal lines and foggy chords to melt us at the core. this is your evening high, the point when you float away and the music takes you to a place beyond the dancefloor. looking forward to hearing this in the next set from the boys.

tireless producer, tronic boss and top international dj christian smith here steps up for his first release on plus 8. over the years christian has offered up a high volume and high quantity of techno inclined singles for myriad labels (bedrock, systematic, 100percent pure, soma), so it only makes sense he now finds himself on one of the scenes most reliable outposts for such material. the two track ep kicks off with house is house which is, as the name suggests, a little house-ier than the flip, but still deals in plenty of heavy bass weight and slick repetition. the devil is in the detail filtered, dark voices, rattling cowbells, washes of white noise synths and long, thin, forward looking pads - all of which are married to a mid-tempo groove. the more forceful indulge me then follows. taught kick drums start immediately as claps and subtle synth stabs swell in volume until they eventually fill out the whole airwaves. squirming behind are thin and icy steel lines until the first drop when the deliciously bouncy groove sets in proper. far from aping the usual detroit and chicago tropes, christian smith has once again crafted two classy dance floor joints that are not only exquisitely produced, but that bare all the usual hallmarks of christian smith, one of the most consistent producers in the game.

the ninth release from the mainrecords shop, on its eponymously titled label comes in the form of three tracks of slick late night electro from matt star, plus a remix from perseus traxx. with well over three dozen releases under his belt in one guise or another matt star aka mattias schildger is no stranger at all to production of high quality electronic music, as this latest ep clearly displays. happily blurring boundaries between house and electro, with its tight, crisp beats the release exudes a form of stripped back and honest late night cool with basses that bubble in a way sometimes reminiscent of ed dmx, while others lend more of a chicago feel accompanied by rolling toms. synth lines and arpeggiations cut in and out of subtle modulations giving the feel of anticipation one gets while tearing along the motorways of a city, late at night, the lights of the city and other vehicles brightly darting by, streaking and reflecting across the cars windscreen. perseus traxx delivers a subtle remix that remains true to the elements of the original and while adding a booming kick and some of his own production techniques, influences and grit to the mix, shows he isnt stuck in one genre or sound.
