us native and techno newcomer 785 blasts onto the scene with a stellar debut 12inch. kansas native 785 debuts with his first 12inch ever on jerome sydenhams apotek records. it is clear this evasive sound engineer has a special gift to craft techno from sources others may have never dared to tap. the a-side mada theory is a display of pure techno diversity with slight nods to dub, ambient and the upper class of minimal. a record whose beauty may lay in it simplicity until one witnesses the complex chaos it causes on dance-floors. the flip, east box, gets a tad more mechanical utilizing drilling kicks and a host of atmospheric sounds sliding in unison with machine rhythms, coagulating into some hardened molten tech-funk. both tracks have that special something that makes them standout.what has he employed that others havent? a phenomenon well have to wait to decode until he unleashes his next pack of roving beats.

the name dachshund is one immediately associated with experimantation, an innate feeling for ryhthm and good dose of tongue and cheek. the swiss dj, producer and label founder can scarcely hide his musical roots in reggae. the sunshine feeling from those days still shines through in his current productions and gives them a touch of dub. his latest ep for highgrade records is no different. this leads to the first track >extensive talk< with its reduced beginning sounding something like a false start. gloomy voices implore us to >come, sit down, forever<.this delusion establishes itself in a musical theatre, while simultaneously becomming more pressing as the track winds its way into the legs – moving inexorably towards the second groovy track, >asymmentric love<, with its sprinkle of varied and original sound ideas. the final offering, >octogone< goes even further and weaves original loops and straight edged percussion into a compelling carpet of sound.

vibe003 remixes ep was born when the magic voice of michael franti, famous american singer, met the club-vibes of these guys.... that had retouched the single >theres enough for all of us<. from the elegant techno of deepchild (trapez, affin), to the deep dry-groove of butane (crosstown, alphahouse, rrygular), we are pushing on the wall by the man-of-the-moment in spain, marcos in dub (goa, highgrade, monofunk)... where funny techno and warm ambient make you dance smiling. this remixes ep is closed by an old-school house remix ofmussen, where the 909 and 808 sound is all you need...

in advance of the release of dapayk & padbergs third full-length sweet nothings - this time round on stil vor talent - the experienced duo are teasing us with the fluffy cloud ep, which showcases three of the album’s many diverse highlights, while keeping the vinyl lovers happy. the a-side bears the lps title track >sweet nothings<, on which dapayk & padberg’s sound takes a turn as they come knocking with a deep but forceful groover, whose distorted high-hats and trancey synth stabs create a vibe both euphoric and weirdly subdued. the lyrics, moreover, emphasise the duality at the core of many dapayk & padberg tracks as the latter ponders ‘you’re good for me - you’re bad for me’. showing another of the duo’s many facets, ‘backyard’ enchants thanks to mystical lyrics sung beautifully over a deep quasi-dubstep structure. marking the ep’s mid-point, the atmospheric song shines through intricately crafted fragility and is the perfect contrast to the previous and following track, while leaving a strong desire for more stuck in the listener’s mind. on the b-side, ‘fluffy clouds’ does quite the opposite to what its title suggests - rather than being a soft little piece, we are treated to big-room techno fodder à la berghain. a skeletal framework of heavy kicks, dark pads, white noise and dense metallics works relentlessly underneath a cold spoken word, proclaiming >not human, not animal - just a body in motion<. machine funk par excellence.

for his first release of 2012 shlomi aber has kept aside for be as one two of his most roadtested secret weapons of the last months. after a successfull 2011 with two big releases on be as one, which include his exciting collaboration with dj sneak, and the remixes pack for his album on ovum, its now time for >in dancetrippin ep<. in dancetrippin on the a and >faced u< on the b are indeed two very special tracks. as its name says, the a side is a dance-trip indeed, trippy vox and rolling grooves dubbed into shlomis own dark and hypnotic quality trademark sound. faced u on the b is another kind of trip into sounds, this time with a more minimalistic but yet jazzy approach, making it a quality sounding peak time anthem.

on this white label, we bring together two of the best producers in the uk to give there perspective of the work of sbtrkt. the ratio of quality to quantity in the braiden repertoire is disproportionately weighted in favour of quality. his debut release >the alps<, on joy orbisons label doldrums, certified him as a meticulous detailed producer. if youve heard is rinse fm show, youll have enjoyed the intensity and breadth of his perspective. this musicological take on sbtrkts >pharaohs< recontextualises roses gabor afro-futuristic vocals line in a more genuinely space-age industrial club sphere. the darker edge to lil silva is just the baddest of all uk house producers. his uk funky background has sheltered him from the hype lauded upon the flavour of the month post-dubstep producers of his generation. as a result, hes continued to garner respect from all sides, from the garage scene to the tech house scene. his treatment of >living like i do< takes his mate samphas vocal and adds a jerk discord to an already tense and dramatic vocal performance. his trademark 2-note bassline presents itself with its usual menace, ensuring waistlines to react promptly.

after several appearances on the label, kareem comes up trumps again with an excellent first solo single release backed by a wonderful remix from white doyen oskar offermann himself.how low can you go the opener track acts as a discreet, structured, driving and some how dubby house tune that keeps a nice layer of grit beneath the fingernails. its loopy character imparts the feeling of virtually remaining unchanged but it nevertheless staidly evolves within its sonic borders and imparts a sensual quality of all-enveloping warmth. oskar offermanns interpretation of how low can you go introduces skipping melodies that are transmitted as choppy discoesque pulses and rhythmic modulated bass sounds are the preferred form of punctuation. indeed the remix is intended to be a dj tool, but like all of oskar offermanns recent house works, it builds smoothly as though every element was simply waiting in the wings to make its appearance at the proper moment, and – just before it finishes up – sounds like it could go on forever.

we are proud to release the first ep from the new fluxion album on echocord. this work is about his travels in music. the sounds, influences and aesthetic of his actual travels, expectation-journey-destination, alongside the music influences deriving from them. through his prism those sounds, pictures, travels, emotions left traces of new directions, of future journeys to take. fluxion captured the motion in his travels with a different feeling each time. on no man is an island with the unreleased dennis brown vocal version ,an influential song, with a clear message. desert nights a kind of desert rock meeting dub on a road movie. butiama an actual place, where variations and consistency in rhythm is within people s dna. this ep also includes a flowing rmx by our good friend thomas fehlmann. after a decade in the field of dub, techno, ambient, fluxion opens the horizon with music that cannot fall under one specific territory.

following a pair of fine releases on fine art and under the shade, james johnston delivers another superb ep for no matter what. >after everything< is a masterfully created slice of rolling deep house flirting with disco styles, punctuated with snippets of disco guitar licks and dubbed out vocal samples, all held together with a sumptuous chord sequence. the comparatively upbeat tempo rhythm and deep subs of >lost the house keys< which follows comes as something of a surprise, and the chopped up piano which causes the track to erupt into a flurry of jacking rhythms only add to the proto-chi house mood. the rest of the tracks continue with the same kind of upbeat pace, with >get back to the feeling< interlacing a variety of female vocal samples within its 909 rhythms, and >xtc< injecting some serotonin into the ep with its razor sharp synth stabs and snares, whose rhythms recall the deadly precision of marc kinchens early productions...

nach ausverkaufter ersten single tanzen und dem hoch gelobten album experiment musik setzen wir noch einen drauf, indem wir einen der beliebtesten tracks des albums prophetic dreams von zwei meistern ihres faches neu interpretieren lassen haben. prophectic dreams ist ein bartsch track wie er im buche steht. langsam bauen sich aus einer etwas dreckigen und rauchigen atmosphäre verschiedene melodien auf, die immer mehr zu einander finden und mit peitschenden claps zu einem pumpenden dancetrack werden. dabei verleihen spielerisch abwechselnde sounds und housige percussion dem ganzen weitere dynamic. classic. das berliner durchstarter-duo aka aka bringen mit ihrem remix den nötigen kick für den ravenden dancefloor, indem sie die melodie des orginals aufgreifen, in einer klasssischen sägezahnbasslinie und dazu passenden phatten synthlinie umwandeln, die sich immer weiter steigern bis sie in einem stummen break enden, aus dem sie wieder emporsteigen und die crowd zum schreien bringen. ein erprobtes oberbrett, dessen klaren powersound sich niemand wiedersetzen kann. auf der flipside entfaltet unser aller liebling axel boman all seine kreativität und dreht das original in einem 13 minütigen megamix komplett durch den wolf. alle elemente erscheinen an anderer stelle und werden durch neue sounds ergänzt. so entseht ein dubbiges außergewöhnliches ergreifendes werk, welches nur künstler seiner art so hinbekommen.

mowar has reached its 10th release! this release heads into a darker direction with four solid and mental techno movers. searle is a new name to join the mowar ranks, but his sounds are pure, raw with a pinch of dark ambience. the record opens with the title track mind transfer, which brings a raw oldskool 808 feel layered with hypnotic basic channel-like chords and a subtle but most effective acid line. modern love s claro intellecto on remix duty turns the track into a slow moving warehouse monster, throbbing its way to a drugged chicago-esque jacking feel yet retaining the original darkness of mind transfer. on the flipside succubus lives up to its ominous title. this track is a dark hypnotic affair with fierce kickdrums piercing through an obscure sound palette of eerie pads and deep basses. razor sharp modulated noise then invades the whole thing turning the track into a punishing dark workout. finally unauthorized brings a more edgy and experimental sound to the whole, starting of with a dubby bassline and graveyard shift pads, but once the piercing hi-hats kick in, the track shifts to straightforward almost cristian vogel-like mental techno. by the way… searle is a new moniker of mowar frontman franco cangelli.

this 4-track ep is the first official release from new jerseys mikeq, one of the unquestioned leaders of the current vogue-house scene, and follows in the wake of a slew of self-released tunes he has dropped over the past few years. let it all out is also the second record on kingdoms fade to mind imprint, which has already received mountains of praise despite its short discography. largely built upon raw, upfront drum sounds, recycled snippets of hip-hop and r&b, and, most importantly, the ever-present >ha< (itself a repurposed masters at work sample), vogue house seemingly offered the sort of sound that tastemaking and blog-reading djs would snap up with aplomb. hell, even diplo championed the ballroom scene. yet, for whatever reason, the expected vogue-house explosion hasnt really happened. while a handful of non-ballroom producers and djs (most coming from the world of bass music) have experimented with the genre, the music essentially continues to hum along in the underground.

bestworks records proudly presents the debut of two young aspiring producers from berlin: felix fisher and fabian dikof. several years ago both of them learned their first skills in a youth project which was developed and run by non other than label owner and producer andre lodemann in a small town erkner on the outskirts of berlin, germany. this release is a beautiful connection between andre lodemanns former job as a street/social-worker and his work today as a producer and dj on the international circuit. the track by felix fisher is a more detroit orientated tech-house track with a darker approach and fabian dikofs is more dubby-house influenced. christian prommer and phoniques remixes give the release a great twist in other musical directions.
