despite the doors being closed on dissident in 2009, former boss andy blake has been anything but quiet, with his world unknown imprint bringing the acid and ebm sounds of his night of the same name to the world. now hes started another label, in plain sight, which looks set to bring more esoteric house sounds to our ears, with the first release coming from the hitherto unknown youngtee. the first track, >dr chocolate< fuses the kind of oddball low-slung sounds and spoken-word samples that in flagranti have been masters of for years, with jazzy keys and 808 cowbells which hint at a subtle chicago influence. the classic house influence continues of >perfect model<, which combines misty chords with an 80s pop groove, falsetto vocal sample and synth jam solo which comes across as alternate universe michael jackson track. as youd expect from a label curated by blake, its house music, but not quite as you know it.

coloured vinyl! sometimes it takes a while, but in the end all good things come together! that’s exactly what happend when our favourite murat tepeli got in touch with us and presented these outstanding tracks. from the jacking >çiftetelli< via deeper territories >mastika< to the core of electronics >good< the whole spectrum from one of germanys most gifted producers! welcome murat!! thanks for purchasing a real copy!

it is one of our traditions to release remixes of our favourite artists and so we are happy to feature top remix artists for this minilogue remix release on traum.
the >drop the mask of self protection< remix of dominik eulberg is a bit of an adventure! unlike his >diorama< album and maybe because of its elaborate musical challenge, he has taken a time-out to create a serious club format in the true eulberg style witnessed on trapez in the past. so what does that really mean for this track? well this remix kicks off a bit of an relaxed percussive and deep house groove and undergoes in its course quite an explosive transformation! with a lot of skill and finesse mr eulberg pulls the strings with accuracy and makes the transfer of what unfolds to be a heavy big pounding techno rocker! thumbs up this is superb and eulberg at his best.

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.

after i heard enol s beautiful track white mango on initial cut, i felt the need to reach out. i had a long and friendly conversation with matthieu (enola) about our musical background and agreed on the fact that we both have a weakness for pop music and early detroit techno, and quickly came to the conclusion that something with a little pop would be perfect for the label. enola came to us with >slow motion< featuring the vocals of will caulfield. its something different for enola, and something different for us, deep techno pop, perfect for 5am! enola is the new project of french dj matthieu monnin, who used to be part of the techno outfit noirdegout. matthieu now works on his own, finding his niche in melodious techno, taking inspiration from the sounds of the nineties. he has done work with the likes of rodriguez jr, anoraak, and arno gonzalez, and now he joins correspondant with >slow motion<. on the flip side, nhar, the other half of correspondant turns the darkness into light with for me, his best remix to date. if the original is for 5am, nhars remix is for 5pm, when the sun still shines and its warmth still remains.

its now the turn of shapednoise for features series, and to complete this ep made of pure adrenaline theres the remix of the well known dino sabatini (outis music,sonic groove, prologue). shapednoise, one of the youngest and most promising artists of the techno scene, is based in berlin, fully living the repitch recordings project. his musical background is really wide, and you can notice it listening to his productions, a futuristic vision of the sound, with industrial elements and synthesizers characterizing his sonority. the second act of the series starts with white light white head: an out of ordinary track, an unusual beat, techno futuristic, that flows into a neo-industrial sound, with soundscapes that make it mental, but at the same time a post-apocalyptic dancefloor hit. dino sabatinis version hypnotizes us, manipulates shapednoises sounds las only he can do, with his incomparable personality, rhythmics and drone evolving until the end of a trip to the edge of reality. cosmic landscapes (the tiltle already tells a lot), is a track with very powerful rhythmics, for the lovers of straight-techno. shapednoise, an artist to absolutely keep an eyes on this year. also this time the artwork of pasquale ascione makes its part: surreal, unique, making you wondering where this faces come from, maybe from our dreams.features series is a whole of musicalities where images and imaginary interpenetrate. supported and played by norman nodge, perc, samuli kemppi, jonas kopp, marcel dettmann, adam x, tommy four seven, lucy, dvs1, pfirter and many others!

first copies only via decks.de !!! laut & luises second poodle, the >shoot the sun ep<, marks the long overdue return of manchesters third dimensional space head norken. collaborating with deer, a powerful brujo from weimar he met while hanging out in a space trailer during his recent long travels, he managed to create an ethereal delight. these techno sorcerers have conjured an album worthy of its title micro don juan. we have chosen two lush trans-dimensional techno tracks with a deep housey feel, namely >shoot the sun< (a2) and >remember that feeling< (b1), and asked deers local buddy dwig aka die wiese im garten (a1) and our charming dürerstuben (b2) for remixes to complete the collection to an essential listening for the third ear. yes, well done gentlemen!

>have you found true love<? it looks as we have once again as we been graced with another soulful gem from distant people. joey silvero aka distant people made his way onto the seasons limited imprint early in the year with a projected titled >connected< that went onto making its rounds and making a stamp in south africa. distant people our back once again with a project titled unconditional love featuring a strong vocal from nickson. the project is packed with remixes from spirit blessings, tikki tembo & jonny bravo. sit back and enjoy this one, cause we think you will also have found true love with this record!

a product of his surroundings, wasserfall creates organic, electronic music using an array of tools - including a nord modular g2x, a roland tr 909, a roland sp 404 sampler & an apogee ensemble – but dont think for one minute that its all about the gear, and that he is just a technical producer. field recordings feature heavily in his work, and you can often find him patrolling the streets of oslo or berlin hunting for the perfect sound that will convey his ideas within the piece. anders is just as at home creating scores for film as he is producing rhythms for the dance floor, during his time in berlin he created a contemporary soundtrack of the old russian silent-fim classic a man with a movie camera (dziga vertov 1929) which was performed live in berlin, bremen and in bergen. after all this is said and done, the e.p boils down to just one thing - house music for the heads. nothing lightweight, just the heavy goods. long time coming on vinyl, dont miss out on the result of a year of work getting it just right, if you managed to bag the previous #gcw vinyl you know we take absolute pride in our output. a strictly limited pressing. mastered to 180g vinyl by the one & only john dent @ loud mastering.

zopelar is one of our dearest local prodigies. hailing from a small-town at the heart of brasil and devoting his life to music from an early age, his love for this artform grew stronger as he explored the myriad layers that sedimented into today s pop. further developments led him to a classical training in the craft and the result is a burgeoning trajectory to which this ep is a crucial moment. one marked by the inflection on his approach, until then heavily influenced synth pop and post punk to the epiphany that followed his discovery of electronic dance music. a discovery that is translated to perfection, both conceptually and emotionally, by the title track of this ep, >falling in love<.

another city now is the debut ep from ango aka andrew gordon macpherson, the next fresh voice hailing from montreal, canada on the luckyme label. a frequent collaborator with jacques greene, lunice & nycs azealia banks, now is the time for ango to step out alone. over this 6 track narrative - written on the road whilst touring in january 2011 – one hears late 80s pop, early 90s house and contemporary rnb arise in equal measure. every bit the writer as he is the producer, this record is a lyrically polarised selection of girl songs expressing the giddy way up and the painful way back down. but theres something defiantly warm in angos music that serves as a refreshing antidote to 2011s endlessly morose electronic music. where polysynths and hi hats spring above plates of live processed vocals, chopped samples are harmonised upon, punctuated with thumping drums. another city now is a balanced record: upbeat and deep, vintage and yet totally modern, as heart aching as it is uplifting. our tenth record is something special.

what can we say about this ep ? not much. this is a very well known house artist who wants to keep his identity secret. he sent us some parts of his old 90s house tracks and luckily they were remixed by our good friends coat of arms and breach from uk. this is a very special release for us. enjoy!

at last - the essential montreal ep tracks mastered properly! comes in a twice hand-stamped brand new printed downwards jacket tracks unavailable on vinyl for some years regis explores the various forms and effects of repetition within this d.a.f. inspired 1995 british underground techno classic. properly mastered for the first time by our very own techno luvvy matt colton - this is truly linear, hypnotic, low-fi machine funk.back in the early days of downwards only the surgeon titles were mastered properly as oconnor didnt think his own productions were worth it(having been transferred direct from tape)features a brand new downwards printed jacket and two hand stamps.

the welcome return to form of john tejada! also features droid/modularz artist truncate feat. extra support from silent servant hand stamped custom embossed sleeve design historia y violencia 7 is brought to you by technical maestro, john tejada and rising talent, truncate (david flores). this release showcases both artists talent for classic production and forward-thinking sound design. the a-side is tejadas maximiliano (6 july 1832 - 19 june 1867),and includes a nod to the only monarch of the second mexican empire. it brings classic depth that only john tejada is capable of. the b-side is truncates.venticinco which brings classic futuristic dance floor sounds to the here and now with additional sound effects provided by our very own silent servant juan mendez. this is los angeles first and second wave at its finest.

it has been a while since alex showed up with a follow up on credo, but as you know, good things do not only last for a while, they also require some time to be finished and this result is more than worth to wait for! hollywood bullet might remind you on some classic trackss essence and it kicks of impressively however, the real >go< follows after huuuge breaks and now its your turn to free the animals on the dancefloor with this weapon that contains not only plenty of energetic basslinesounds, but also load of colors which could be missed these days on often very monotonous technoproductions. alex is not afraid of bringing colors, and not only shades on credo, and so does heartattack: a really weird and unexpected groove on 120 bpm only, even kind of housy, but the upbuilding rythmic noises bring the track back to where it comes from, and this is nothing else as pure bassic energy. very very big release in our eyes!

the time has come to welcome jacob korn from the uncanny valley in dresden to the mild pitch camp.weve been eager to work out an ep with jacob since his amazing live appearance at our labels first anniversary party in 2010 and at last,it is here!expect the funkiest ghost train ride ever,accompanied by remixes from funfair operators manuel tur & langenberg.we just love it.

so after the elusive triumph of our first release finally came firmly into our grasp, we at sequencias here in new york thought it was time to take things in a parallel direction without retracing our steps. drafting three top names in underground deep house for a label debut is no mean feat, but how do you follow up on a surprise coup like that? we thought it was time to go even deeper, and we couldnt think of a better way of doing that than getting an experienced player to unveil a new alias for our second offering. things being as they are, weare trying to keep it a bit low here, but what we can let you know is that his discography stretches back to 2005 and that he has appeared on the illustrious bunker records. this should give you a good idea of what to expect: deeper-than-deep, dirty, and gritty house that jacks with the best the movement has to offer. we have to say that orpheus firmly delivers here, and we hope you will be as pleased as we are with the three dark and introspective offerings he unveils for his new project here at sequencias.

for those of you who missed out on this great record the first time (which isnt strange since there were only 100 copies pressed...), here is your chance to get your hands on one of our favourite arcanoid releases, this is the 2012 edition.

one of our favorite south african producers is back yet again with his second installment of melodic moments ep vol 2 on the seasons recordings imprint. dee mac came to us with melodic moments ep vol 1 project in early 2011 and was released and well received by the underground dance community world wide. we ask dee mac to continue his journey with us and we hope you enjoy!

exactly a year ago we released the splitt ep er 0004.1 with chez damier s balance alliance. so this very special various artists ep comes to you as the follower of the reminded release as a double a side ep, called the various artist ep two pt.2!.with people on a1 marcello napoletano delivers an analog monster. the man from south italy doesnt really need to be introduced after his stunning releases on labels like mathematics, yore or rush hour. on a2 we re-introduce our first female producer in the family basels timnah sommerfeldt with her mix of fill me up (released on balance / ba006). on the aa balance side we got two rookies on wax with the oldschol flavoured tune named da bass lover. produced by quike feat. lello di franco as a young italian producer combo. with changes demetrio giannice has gone through a maturing process, a downtempo track driven by two difrrent drumsequences, melodic synth lines, strings and a classic guitar with a balearic feeling. everything turns into a kind of background hidden hook taken from the forthcoming vocal version of changes. vocals by chez damier. few different versions will follow. strictly limited!

viva espana - with the best wishes to the new year from our friends danny serrano, hector couto and piek (saved / break new soil / noir), which presents two groovy tracks between techhouse and deephouse for a great startup. welcome 2012

mule electronic happy to start 2011 with this fantastic new artist benedikt frey (aka suedmilch). in the last year, he has joined to sampler 12 inch with vakula, fred p on russian house label ethereal sound. title track on a1 >fairytale< is super deep detroit house sound with smokey male vocal. this track is easily to fascinate the fan of theo parrish or moodymann or even dj koze. this track is one of our favorite songs on mule electronic. all other tracks are also high quality stuff. dont miss this new artist.

the latest instalment in the ever-evolving tale of circus company comes from a partnership that has already borne plenty of tightly honed dancefloor fruit, although never before for our merry band of performers and freaks. marc schneiders service to european house music runs deep. as well as steering the course of the mega-distributor wordandsound, marc has been steadily appearing on releases and remixes for new kanada, metamorphic, einmaliens and many more over the years. however marcs studio collaborations with ralf schmidt are fast becoming his most celebrated output. ralfs aera project is already being loudly championed by the most critical tastemakers in the business, including glowing praise from resident advisor and fact magazine for his unique and impeccably crafted tracks on his own aleph music label. after a string of successful remixes, the pair consummate their shared passion with this strong, focused three-tracker that makes a space for itself in the club-ready end of the circus company record bag. what on the surface may seem like straight-up dj friendly cuts soon reveal their hidden depths. whispers of techno melodies and textures hum away under the surface, while those with keen ears will pick up the sneaky tributes to uk rave culture that aera is known for sprinkling over his tracks. primarily though, these tracks gracefully tread the line between functionality and flair, leaving you with another glorious selection of imaginative house music with that inimitable circus co. stamp on it.

marcus meinhardts new record is there and with it a hole rig of remixes. checkpot has become a typical meinhardt that twirls with a cool funkyness and mysterious melodies through the dancers brain. the producer and dj okain which is known especially through his releases on tsuba rec. is taking the theme by the fuze and is relighting the dancefloor with his bass accelerator. our upon you approved colleague pele also likes to play with fire and got together with the artist findling for his remix. they turn the wind towards the morning and let the flames turn into a trip-dub direction. similar does the upon you artist echonomist who stears the digital bonus track with a heating value of glowing soundscapes as usual.

whomadewho, notoriously named after 1986s album by ac/dc, have always been hard to pin down, with their music sounding as effortless as it is stylistically and sonically adventurous. fusing pop and disco memes with punk paraphernalia, the genre-bending trio made up of jeppe kjellberg, tomas høffding and tomas barfod honed their skills on stage and in the studio, releasing a series of bestselling records topped off by their 2011 mini album >knee deep< on kompakt. now they return with the sublime full length >brighter<, due in early 2012 and shaping up to be one of next years highlights. its first single >inside world< is prime stuff as expected…jeppe kjellbergs characteristic vocal hit the pop-nerve in the verses while tomas høffdings soft falsetto holds the song together. second to none is the exclusive flipside, which features a grandiose acoustic version of >inside world< graced by the warm baritone from john grant, former lead vocalist with indie outfit >the czars< and critically acclaimed solo artist. clearly sharing his pivotal vision of pure craftsmanship and musical ingenuity, whomadewho never settled for streamlined mediocrity, thus churning out another instant classic that will rule our hearts and minds.

for our third instalment on mars recordings weve decided to go for transparent green vinyl! this has nothing to do with aliens, we wouldnt be that obvious, but its the colour chosen by the artists and we think it looks like another great mars package. musically, well edward oberon & paul t have conjured up 2 awesome tracks. >love is< is absolutely sublime with its warm bass line and delicate sounds to the breakdown, while keeping the drums nice and punchy, a great tune to roll out. >absolute< harks back to the deep sounds of old good looking by the likes of big bud or tayla. ridiculous sub-lo bass and deep strings, this is how mars do things and we feel its another quality 12 inch where the music & the packaging matter.

samurai vinyl only horo series volume 2. limited multi coloured vinyl 10 inch.
after the success of the last 2 asc singles for samurai red seal and the flood of quality music that was arriving in our inboxes from the man, it was inevitable it was time for another shot of this uk born, california residents vision. the horo vinyl series appealed to asc instantly being a man from a strong techno background and an avid vinyl collector himself. >no secrets< is one of those tunes that touches you deeply without you realising, echoing in your subconscious and drawing you back for repeat listens. >zenith< picks up where >bleep test< left off, stuttering timeless breaks patched together with diving bass and percussive polishes to produce a unique sound that takes the past and hurls it into the future.

from celle into the wide world: these days guido schneider is one of the major globetrotters among djs and producers worldwide, but he began his career 15 years ago in provincial germany. however, instead of baking bread rolls, schneider founded his own label neue welten right from the beginning. it was a move that naturally brought him to the capital of electronic music in berlin. what followed was a series of exciting and successful collaborations with other renowned artists, and after dissolving his label, schneider began travelling as a sought after dj, jetting all around the globe. it is little wonder that such a reputable dj and producer also belongs to the diverse highgrade family. he has now produced another ep for the berlin label which brings us the typical guido schneider qualities right before our eyes, or even better: before our ears! the two tracks navigate precicely from the first bar, the minimal sound universe that relies on elaborate percussion, without ever being over produced, and flow into fantastically harmonic vocals that lend the thumping beats an elegant softeness. simply stated, typically schneider.

a new year, a new record. der turnbeutel brings its third vinyl into the recordstores. on the a-side you will find our old acquaintance datastix, who again show their lucky hands in finding the right track in these dark times of the year with their >penumbra<. it is accompanied by a remix from nadja lind (klartraum/lucidflow) – a remix that fills espacially the guys of datastix with a lot of pride. on the b-side clark davis turns his rounds with his >tretroller< (engl. scooter), a track which will drive the atomsphere on any dancefloor. the disk gets completed by a tretroller remix from andre kronert (night drive music), that comes so massive that even big boys can ride it smoothly.

the londinium ep is the latest release on uzuri recordings and welcomes chicago skyway back to the fold. not that hes been away too long, having produced a full 12 release and contributed to the from chicago turin amsterdam & dublin with love ep just last year. we also welcome hakim murphy to the label – with his credentials it was only a matter of time before our paths crossed!as the title suggests, this release was inspired, conceptually at least, by our nations capital, and its apparent that sean has spent quite enough time here to get the gist of the place, with the b-side tracks entitled traffic and noise, respectively. im sure he loves it here, really.musically, he keeps it closer to his windy city heart – very clearly reflecting his roots, in fact. as a dj and club promoter in mid 90s chicago, sean frequently shared the decks with some of the citys biggest talents at that time – cajmere, gene farris and spencer kinsey (gemini) among them, and one could say that theres an audible relief flavour to a-side, london streets, with its stripped-back, hypnotic stomp. its fitting that hakim murphy remixes the track, coming from similar roots within chicagos scene, and his own reworking retains the drawn-out essence of the original but brings a whole new hips-and-shoulders groove to the track.

for our 77th release we are happy to welcome back bart skils. on the remix nicole moudaber retains the intensity but strips it down to accentuate the swollen beat pulses, creating a harsher dance reality with lower pitched moody bass thuds and gritty echoes. groovy main room mastery!
