we are proud to present eveline finks debut ep hula hoop. with hula hoop and loose powder we get to experience two perfectly arranged grooving swinging tracks. you really feel that she has injected her own personal energy and charm into these tracks, they fully deserve their place on enough!. the hula hoop remix by guido schneider maintains all the power and genius of his earlier works and delivers what we expect of him. this ep is one of a kind and a definite must for all music lovers, it is so special in fact that it may warrant its own little space in music land. but i guess you the listener will decide this.

we love space team up with vitalik recordings to unveil a very special collection of music for their 2011 annual compilation. following in the footprints of 20:20vision and viva, vitalik recordings have taken the concept a step further by compiling the album from entirely unreleased material. the music comes from a diverse mixture of musical souls featuring 12 exclusive tracks. part one of the of the compilations vinyl sampler contains tracks from legendary production king martin buttrich, dubstep champion appleblim and enigmatic talent the mole. spanning the genres, the resulting collection of music flows and ebbs from the early slow sultry grooves of the moles >even now still us< to the broken beats and colossal bass of closing appleblims >moonlight< constructing an old-school feel and drawing the listener into its deep and emotive soul

new signing to the mathematics label, san laurentino brings this ep after his great release on the electric minds imprint. >magnetic steps< is a slow electronic journey while the title track flies farther into space. >the olympians< and >lazy angels< on the flip continue the cosmic feel. nice

special limited collectors edition on green transparent vinyl! played and supported by: alex bau, joseph capriati, technasia, mark morris, bcr boys, kyle geiger, logotech, octave, pfirter, space djz, gayle san and various others!

delivered here is phillip charles >controlled input< ep. a collection of phillips music as orignal as it is danceable. while the tracks contain unifying elements, they each stand very clearly apart in their own sound. as we move towards 2011 reference points of mathew jonson, carl craig and redshape spring to mind, but make no mistake... this release is in a sonic space all its own. a true gem for lovers of forward thinking techno and house.

tommy walker 3 has been hiding for a while now, after releasing a slew of material in 2008 (including a release on the sadly defunct dissident). now hes back with >dance music clubbing<, and with a name like this youd probably expect this ep to either be a bit off the wall, or unintentionally awful. we are glad to say it fits into the former category, offering an ep of colourful elastic space disco mixed with a more classic vibe. opener >disconnected< sets the tone with its 80s, verging on hair metal guitar riffs. >mwj1< impresses with its almost seinfeld-esque slap bass, and synth piano stabs while >errational< is characterised by its wonky synth melody and spaced-out laser gurgles. finally >v brains< melds driving live bass with huge slabs of cosmic squelch. if you like your disco fierce, this will definitely be worth a look

not much to say – abstract forms returns with some straight up killer electro from gosub, limited to 250 copies, vinyl only.

holy grail alert!! possibly the most sought after cosmic disco lp in the galaxy!!! black hole was a brazil only release with four superlong tracks, themed around heroes and movies. the 4 super killer tracks are bursting with dope space sirens, arpeggio synths and spaced out sound effects. all thrillers, no fillers, here is a chance to get the epic i feel love styled me and my superfriends track so sought after by collectors. ultra limited press, sleep and weep!!!

it took a while but we finally got this great remix ep together from catz n dogz escape from zoo album. tanner ross flexes his e-funk biceps and shows us that just a little bit goes a long way with huge bass and sparse vox. this remix goes against the grain the right way, showing restraint and power at the same time. the main man of detroit, carl craig also delivers a sparse and beautiful mix, 1st giving us a lesson in how to properly tweak the space echo and then bringing it back with classic strings and subs. both mixes are getting major support from all across the globe from sebo k to troy pierce to ewan pearson to martyn to l-vis 1990 to james zabiela - overall probably the best feedback we had in a while on a record to be honest.. all great for our kids at the detroit youth foundation where the mothership label donates 100% of profits! also, special thanks to matt colton at air studios, london for donating a mastering session for free to cut this record and support our school.

did you ever hear about christian strobe? no? hardly surprising, cause its a brand new solo-project by christian schnall, one half of disco trash music (maximal electro) and spruce (dreamy shoegaze). the german guy is musically rooted in the 80ies and early 90ies and as christian strobe, he combines airy new wave pop, retro-futurism with a pinch of house. the original mix of >midnight call< is full of magic, desire and an airy atmosphere, but still a simple pop song. the nightdrive version is recommended for nightly rides with your ferrari testarossa through big city lights. the italo-disco-pop-masters from codebreaker gives the original a funky french taste and reknowned keenhouse conjured a good-feeling remix with lovley summer-piano-chords. midnight call? you could name it sunshine call! in a more and more digital environment, the warmth of the analog vhs-tape version gives you the relaxing mood you need. the placid >lonesome astronaut< completed the debut-ep and takes you to a cosmic trip though time and space. stay tuned for the upcoming full-length album called >heartworks< in autumn 2011.

>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.

our japanese dear friend hidenobu ito is definitely overwhelming and it seems almost comically out of place. from alien hydraulics to percussive steel fractals he allows to take shape within the realm of impossibility. so, what follows next on numbolic records is a stunning lesson in subtle buildup of sound design. theres a feeling of constant movement and shaky energy that means his music never quite stands still. highly resonant and rapidly-panning drum hits act like flickering fluorescent lights. the result is a heavily abstracted layering and perhaps our most sonically release to date. every sound, no matter how tiny, is endlessly tweaked and picked apart. the 12 inch ep is rounded off with 2 prickly re-interpretations. dualism turns up the fog with a super-deep captivating and yet lovingly version. while ditch comes up with a characteristic throbbing dirty techno rework. another 4 smashing tracks by hidenobu ito are added digitally as well as two bonus remixes. kai provides a dance floor-approved version and the hungarian newcomer as we said made a cartoon spaceship to the moon. big pulsating bass kicks will drive you in that particular head-space, but before accidentally killing someone in love, we suggest go get this record instead and start dance! be numbolic!

re-release of nervous records ner 20052 from 1993 with an additional unreleased mix of >yes he is<.

hot on the heels of the brilliant in trust we space ep, redshape delivers two more top quality techno tracks on his own label present. son of a... brings back the freestyle craziness of the masked one, which we know of tracks like dog day. going wobbly acid bassline in the redshape-way! kracken s game is more of a synthy slow builder - setting a densed atmosphere. great timeless release and as all present releases only available in limited quantities!

if you were to cut neville watson he would bleed acid house, he would also quite likely knock you flat on your arse for having the temerity to wave a knife at him, but thats a whole other story. for his first wu contribution he ventures down the ethereal proto-house boulevard. jacking 707 patterns, a bouncing juno bassline and outer-space synth lines take you into the upper atmosphere for a glorious airborne joyride. as ever, neville manages to evoke those 85-89 feelings without ever sounding merely retro or like some kind of pastiche, something that many attempt but very few manage to pull off. over on side u apiento, the force behind the magisterially brilliant testpressing website, chips in with a heartfelt homage to the new beat sound. another testimony to the fact that a lower tempo doesnt have to mean diminished energy levels, the orange place simply oozes class from top to bottom. like some lost ancienne belgique classic it pounds and pumps along, building up the tension all the while until the quasi- eastern refrain lets loose half way thru and all of a sudden a mystic portal opens up in the space-time continuum that leads all the way to southwark street in late 87.

excellent space disco madness...

aah, how we have missed them! the fine young gentlemen that are channel x, two of stil vor talents most active producers of meticulously crafted and deeply energetic tech-house smash hits. and just in time for the open-air season they now come back with two very convincing pieces of dancefloor art. first up is >little symphony<, an epic space opera that takes it cues from early 90s techno and mixes it up with post-modern grooves and beats. the wide and open spaces are filled with some very hymnal string patterns that are given a final treatment with a reverbed and high-pitched vocal sample. contrast that with the rather jittery beat and a subbass as deep as the frequencies will go and you got yourself a substantially clear bit of techno that is best imagined when it is dark and only some beams of air tell you where you are. channel x do not produce, they direct and all of the sounds are their actors! on the flip things get more light-hearted and set for the daylight hours as well. >steamboat willie< is a heavily sample-orientated swinging piece of jack. the rhythm guitar lead the way on top of a clap-based loop that sets the basis for some very jazzy interpretations along the way. clarinets, trumpets, percussions, brass, effects and even some talking vocal samples are all allowed to join in this hedonistic big band that is at play. this is one for the sunshine, this is one for the smiles on the faces, this is one to feel instantly good about yourself and everything around you. two very different tracks on this ep, but both equally stand out for themselves

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.

label owner, ryuji takeuchi, is on duty to drop another bomb for the 2nd release on his own local sound network (lsn) label. while the 1st release, final weapon ep, is still hot, ryuji really shows his definition of techno with his unique style, which can be well described by these 2 words: tense and relax. on the a side,heart beats solid kicks you in the head with its dark, evil and brutal elements. audio injection, l.a. based techno producer, adds another essence of darkness and deepness to it and gets your heart beaten even more straight. on the b side,heart beats tight represents more straight and hypnotic side of techno. bosnian all time favorite, mikatek aka dj mika, gives some funk and space to it and keeps your heart beaten tighter. anyone could hardly stop its heart beaten with this ep, and thats what this ep stands for. make sure to keep your mind open for the upcoming releases on this local sound network imprint.

excellent four track vinyl with slammin disco edits

here comes that long awaited remixes from the morphology - album >uranias mirror< by hardfloor, headnoaks, legowelt and arne weinberg. no words are necessary – watch out for the limited vinyl edition in white vinyl!

nice price deal !!! the emergence of (another) very british sound in the form of dubstep some years back now has mutated into something altogether more cerebral. the chain are a product of this incipient sound and the many new strands that have splintered forward from it. dan foat is one half of the team that runs r&s, the newly invigorated label that is back at the forefront of contemporary electronic music. he’s also one half of the chain. dan & nathan boddy have for a while now had a studio near london bridge, which has formed into the r&s engine room, a hub for the second wave of their artists, pariah, james blake, space diimension controller et al who regualrly pass through the basement to drink tea and listen to new tracks.

they may have grown up in different generations on different sides of the atlantic, but one thing detroit master delano smith and irish up and comer gavin herlihy share in common is a disregard for boundaries. deftly slipping between the definitions of house and techno, both have carved names for themselves by ignoring the laylines of either genre to imprint their own inimitable stamp on dance music. on krypton factor the pair link talents to deliver an ep that is typically irreverent of trends or genres.

spring 2006 was both cruel and exciting. radiating hot helsinki nights, too much light and vivid, restless dreams about music. while chucking down a glass of cheap brandy in a local bar the idea finally materialized: lets start a record label! a label that would bring people together. proud people. people thinking of music. people doing their own thing in their own way in their own basements. and most importantly, people who understood the meaning of space between notes. after 5 years, 16 records, 85 tracks and 44 artists from 13 countries it goes without saying that those restless dreams became reality. and so did the music.

pursuit grooves releases her solo full length cd entitled >frantically hopeful< this summer on tectonic. the album continues rhythmically where last years >fox trot mannerisms< ep left off, but launches into a different head space with lyrics touching on current affairs and technological dependency. juggling all angles from production, songwriting, mcing and singing, pursuit grooves continues what she does best, fusing elements of hip hop, house and broken beats with sensual melodies and vocals. preceeding the release of the the cd-only 11 track set is this limited run vinyl ep, presenting six of the album’s more floor-friendly tunes.

transmissions sends us four intercepted signals from the mothership hovering over the motor city primed for the peak-time dancefloor that range from outer space techno trips to alien hip-shaking deep house. theres no fads here and no so-hip move faking, just quality in its purest form, and that alone can seem alien back on earth in these times…

4 raw deep acid tracks. its moony: the first track is a tb-303 monster which shows us the way to the acid moon, the ritual makes us crazy while the moon beats are moving our feets (thanks to the tr-707). the moon signals makes us moving into space, we are on another level. we land on the moon and take a walk. its a poem and its acid … limited to 303 vinyl

after the roaring success of nicolas jaars space is only noise album the fine curatorial heads at circus company hq have enlisted 2 of their nearest, dearest and most talent co-conspirators for the first round of remix duties. having built a cult following and peerless reputation for his remixes of everyone from roy ayers to cassius, pépé bradock turns in no less than 3 versions of too many kids finding rain in the dust. the proceedings begin with his blind pig mix, an echoing tunnel of balkan strings and dusty samples connecting the lands of disco and hip hop to blinding effect. the train fantôme poke follows and is certain to find its way into many a discerning dj bag in the weeks and months to come, with its mathew herbert-esque syncopations and grinding industrial scrapes and psychedelic whispers. dave aju takes up the baton on the flip turning the albums title track into the kind of late 80s dance floor work out martin hannet would have been proud of, certain to appeal to fans of recent work by matias aguayo, rebolledo and the comeme camp.

continuing on the passenger 140 bass quest we have a new signing to the label but certainly not new to the scene by any means! 601 has been bashing out the breakbeat / jungle hybrid for a while now and is one reason why passenger and label owners aquasky are revitalised by the scene.

a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away .... subsistenz. episode 10: it is a period of civil war. current value drone spaceships, striking from a hidden base, have won their first victory against the evil minimal empire. during the battle, rebel spies managed to steal secret plans to the empires ultimate weapon, the gay star, an armoured space station with enough media power to destroy an entire planet. pursued by the empires sinister agents, dean rodell races aboard the starship subdivision, in search of the stolen plans that can save all subheads and restore freedom to the galaxies.

including remixes by steve rachmad, jamie anderson and jerome krom.
big support by: jonas kopp, luke slater, john digweed, perc, atomic jam, luciano esse, space djz, dave martin, dave marcia, x-press2, james talk ...

perfectly suited for huge dance floors and long summer after hours hon-ken sparks with spiralling, hypnotic, multi-layered synths moving between trance and space disco.
inspired by japanese wisdom and engineered with teutonic precision, hon-ken will release your mind and put every dance floor into frenzy.
on the flip lopazz and zarook add a more dub-infused note to their remix treatment. tokyo based producer liquid pegasus delivers a strong recording debut slowing things down to 100bpm resulting in a wonderfully deep disco cut.

fresh from the release of his stunning third album, >inner space break free< on the magic + dreams label, the unique and acclaimed live performer, bass clef delivers an anthemic summer 12 inch for the punch drunk label. an integral piece of bristols musical jigsaw, bass clefs live shows and dj sets have wowed the city for years. his punch drunk 12 inch debut is long over due. rollercoasters of the hearts euphoria fuelled piano refrain combines with dub echoed beats and rolling, ground shaking bass before delving deep into acid bliss, juxtaposing the darker, melancholic yet tough and club ready so cruel on the other side. if you get a chance to catch bass clef live, you wont regret it!

true to form, souvenir are back with a snappy summertime release perfectly hinged & ready for sweeping the dancefloors. souvenir 036 various artists features lewis boardman & maher daniel blending their sounds, and converging on this ep for some magnificent effects. the a side starts out with daniel - he is a new, but solid name amongst the techno-gambit, having released on labels such as get physical & bedrock, as well as on souvenir. while his remix workings of >rumblefish< earned him a 2 1/2 month long-spot as number one on the techno charts. with >here and now< with dark, driving techno that sounds like its been made inside of a blazing house-fire. burning & singed, the the layers fall heavy upon one another - with a penetrating dancefloor deep-ness to the bass. next up, >icaros< on the inside a track…spins a dark & deep nighttime soundscape, deep into the depths of a jungle somewhere. a distant & hollow vocal of a tribesman hums hauntingly in the distance, with a severe & driving bassline to make you run like a scared little raver deep into the jungle. on the b side, boardman takes over, one of the uks newest talents - recently remixing for nina kraviz & yousef - with >tranquilizer,< on b2 is quite a minimal retreat…with some intergalactic space-fight sounds thrown into the mix, alongside the rolling bass, and chug-chugging. b2 enters the title track, >the broken is beautiful.< a nice, chugging bass-line meets a ethereal chopped up vocal, carefully flowing in & out of the bass-line….to meet up strong midway thru the breakdown

hotflush presents its fifth release from rising producer sigha. this ep continues his progression into subterranean techno hauntings. since his debut on the imprint in early 2009, sigha has accumulated support from djs across the electronic sphere such as francois k, brendon moeller, marcel dettmann, ben klock, peter van hoesen, james ruskin, and many others. with this release he takes a more direct approach that maintains the cavernous atmosphere and spatial tension of his previous work on hotflush and his own label our circula sound, resulting in a collection of club tracks that evolve and sizzle with burning tenacity, ultimately bursting into the beatless closer that echoes about in an otherworldly space.

a welcome return for wolf with new sleeves and featuring the massive medlar - terrell alongside tracks from greymatter, krl & chicago damn.
support from: dark sky, zoo look, om unit, sarah sweeney, tim sweeney beats in space, red snapper, lucky me, mark potts, favouritizm, brackles, shook magazine, subeena, leftoo, delusions of grandeur, james barrie (bbe), feel my bicep, kelvin k (nordic trax), ian blevins (we love...), duffstep.

we are proud to present you the new bottin ep! its not a surprise that both tracks have a great live feel, you can hear bottin play the guitar and the keys and his friends rodion and francisco did the live percussion and singing!
limited edition on grey vinyl.

wolverhampton based duo letherette return for their second release on ho_tep records, once again delivering a dusty and soul filled package spanning hip hop to boogie - house to rnb. their first ep built a strong buzz, with comparisons and influences being draw upon, ranging from pete rock and madlib through to thomas bangalter. recent remixes and features with bibio, solar bears, brownswood bubblers, dazed and confuzed magazine and bts radio have further cemented their space in the current musical climate, working almost as a beat tape this new ep once again showcases the impressive funk, swing and overall style that the guys have to offer, as ever they are keeping their fingers dirty, digging deep into crates, pulling up nothing but the finest samples.

if we add a new label to electronic music, is it really needed, wasnt music originally unlabeled? - lads contemporary productions could be called anticipated techno, architect techno, or architechno. these two tracks are simply brilliant and beyond what i have heard to date. the way lad is building space procures the feeling to be part of the music, to be in it, swallowed by it. >isolate< and >bergvall< are just two hypnotizing masterpieces, transporting you into unknown and untamed territories. deep, soulful, cinematographic, intriguing, moving. my drug is music. from 2d to real 3d chills. vanina hänin woods, forests, deep and dark spaces, like if kubrick, kurosawa and marinetti would have gathered together to produce music, simply highly cinematographic and futuristic. lad builds up organic visions, redefying sound in such a personal way. definitively two superb, soulful, finely shaped and constructed electronic pieces which will undoubtedly make you dance the night away. (dan lagardere)

excellent quality deep space / dubby techno

set time-dials to 2011 and engage. here we have two slick, italian producers bottin and rodion, they both may have (professionally) lost their first name, but they sure both make up for that with their italian style and extra analog-burbleness. their original vocoder nugget and dub both feature on the vinyl. for remix action we teleport over to argentina where toomy disco (a pretty spacey name already) delivers us some remix action. slick grooves, flowing bass guitar and more shine than a sparkly new saturn 5.
unless an intergalactic born space-plague fuses our brains back to reality, expect more cosmic lunacy in 2012. get your submissions in now producers.

nice price deal !!! yes yes people, we are back! its been a while, but we are going to be hitting you with some seriously good tunes this year, so watch this space. anyway, on to the music: if you like your tunes big fat and heavy like an elephant on steroids, then get ready for an absolute pasting from new boy on the circuit, depone! depone is a producer that has really caught our ear at the z audio towers of late and when you hear these tunes, i m sure you will understand why. all 3 tunes are fierce, dirty, gritty, disgusting and overall very well produced. the great thing about depone is that he manages to create in your face music without pointlessly wobbling the lfo filter. theres some real depth to this young talent and i m sure you will be hearing some more great music from depone in the very near future.

benoit & sergio dont make dance tracks—they tell stories. in the washington dc duos music, a sense of place and narrative infuse their rhythms and melodies, transcending having flexed their synth-pop muscles on releases for dfa (the acclaimed boy trouble ep) and visionquest (the lovelorn where the freaks have no name ep), dc duo benoit & sergio return to spectral sound for a victory lap around the dancefloor. and >let me count the ways< is just that, sounding every bit the perfect, hands-in-the-air final anthem of the evening. tireless hi-hats push the beat onward and dreamy synthesized strings saturate the stereo space as sergio intones, >let me count the ways / the ways that ive loved.< as the line repeats, its meaning bends to fit the songs tone of endless, time-suspended romance: its not the loves that matter in the end, but the ways. its not the destination, but the journey. the b-sides >let me count the ways (autumn version)<is a vastly different take on the original?s maximalist swell. stripping the beat back to its bare essentials and building them up again over nearly 12 minutes, the >autumn version< recalls arthur russell?s more minimal moments down to its wobbly bass filigree and mumbled vocal samples. by the end of the track, the claps are falling on the twos and fours like crinkly foliage, synths are sizzling like firewood, and benoit & sergio?s newest banger is revealed in its full glory once again.

the moment the needle drops on bas mooys >krull<, you know you are up for something special: one of those classic tracks that signpost a style, a timeless number that seizes the flavour of the here and now and elevates it somewhere ethereally higher - in this case booty-swinging, infectiously swinging, grinding, building, unhomogenized techno.
in his remix audio injection minimalizes the assault and its reinvented as a soaring detroit acid grumbler. then gayle san & dj hi-shock propel themselves right into the darker depths of the original version and reboot all the right parts to make it a flanged, spacey, at times relentless sci-fi tech stomper.finally ortin cam reconfigures >krull< as slick, motorized electronic dancefloor mayhem remiscent of some of the sativae outings in the early 90s by neil landstrumm and tobias schmidt.limited first press released on solid white colored vinyl.
already played & supported by luke slater, drumcell, sven wittekind, chris liebing, tommy four seven, dave the drummer, space djz, spiros kaloumenos, sasha carassi, axel karakasis, tom hades, audio injection, go hiyama.
