guillaume coutu dumont has been unstoppable over the past three years. since releasing his debut album, face a l est, on montreals musique risquÚe label in 2007, the montreal-born berliner has released a steady stream of eps, remixes and compilation tracks for circus company, musique risquee, oslo, cocoon and many more. he has also kept up a nonstop touring schedule, wowing crowds the world over with a dynamic live show that never sounds the same twice. throughout, he has developed one of the most distinctive styles in contemporary house music-a deep, powerful and original fusion of afro-latin percussion, instrumental melodies, soulful vocals, and intricate rhythm programming. now, with his new album breaking the fourth wall, he takes another big step forward.

nach fünf jahren im luftraum des rock n roll mit zwei hochgelobten alben, atemberaubenden supports für maximo park und wolfmother sowie unzähligen club- und festival-konzerten, ist nun das von den fans mit spannung erwartete, dritte album der kreuzberger gods of blitz startklar. einhergehend mit den veränderungen in der besetzung - nico kozik übernimmt den gesang und carsten brocker bereichert den sound zukünftig mit dem minimoog - folgt >under the radar< gegenüber den vorgänger-alben einem etwas anderen kurs. während der erstling >stolen horse< mitreißend ungestüm dahergaloppierte, gefolgt von der wissenden mystik von >reporting a mirage<, übt sich der albumtitel des dritten albums, >under the radar<, in echtem understatement: alles andere als unmerklich wird der gods of blitz - sound hier auf eine neue ebene gehoben: entschiedener, hungriger und zielstrebiger und vor allem ein gutes stück ungeschliffener und ruppiger als in der vergangenheit. mit über 200 gespielten shows im rücken unterstreicht >under the radar< das selbstverständnis der band als live-band, denn das album versprüht die atmosphärische intensität einer live-show.

the latest release from relish recordings is from label boss headman. private show is the 2nd single from the upcoming headman album 1923. the synth filled dancefloor jam is the culmination of old school manhead with the modern headman trademarks - heavier basslines and big drums. the track features vocal great steve mason (man behind betaband/blackaffair/kingbiscuittime) who has set a somewhat deviant mood to the track with some smooth vocals, making this a track better to listen to rather than read about. private show also comes with remixes from relish new-comers tape to tape, who have come through with a two part remix of the track as well as a remix from gommas telonius

we kick the package off we have a remix from the mighty radio slave, and he certainly doesnt disappoint. with live keys from tom gandey of cagedbaby fame, he creates an awesome deep house rework, beautiful keys, rising synths and deep piano chords all make it feel like summer is already here.  jesse rose returns turns in a deep and dirty jackin house version, with bumpin bass, heavy swung drums and pitched down vocals, this is sure to tear after hours floors apart.  the rebirth of rising has started, and we cant wait to show what we have coming for you next

like a live transmission from the party you wish you were at, the golden handshake ep is the first offspring of proud parents (and clubbing royalty) numbers. the labels debut release showcases the considerable talents of low limit and lando kal (aka lazer sword), who should need no introduction to the discerning beat freak having roundly assaulted the ears of audiences worldwide with their unbelievable live show and hundred thousand reaching mix tapes.

momentum is back with another huge minimal-techno release.

full artwork sleeves. electronic / dubstep label kinnego records started by boxcutter out of northern ireland is back! after the success of the first release (by boxcutter himself) he introduces the masses to a producer named space dimension controller... the techno funk alias of 19 year old jack hamill. following on perfectly from boxcutter and kinnego fluxs a familiar sound on kgo001, it features 2 tracks of deep, loved up electro. equally inspired by both the tape warped soundtrack to garth merenghis darkplace and early aphex twin, jacks all analogue production gives his tracks a timeless sound thats a mile away from contemporary electro and house. the beats are low slung and funky, and the melodies are addictive and show a natural flair. on the love quadrant, a girl / boy vocal exchange sets the scene while the track builds momentum, before the whole thing spaces off on a sweet minimoog solo. on the flip, electropod 250 collision has a deep 808 pulse and flanged bass, topped off with detroit inspired melodies and blurred out reverbs.

feeling lucky? stockholms high plains drifters jackpot show their cards for our 9th (and 2nd to last) installment in the rvng of the nrds 12inch series. on the a-side, the duo cuts a disco diamond to pieces with handclap slapback and string stabs a plenty. the b-side gets ahead of the beat on a sure bet of dreamy arpeggiation and rolls the bones on an early house classic. this is an ace up a (record) sleeve if we ever saw one.

show-b is making a triumphal procession through the heaven of arrangements and the musically modernistic housemusic. complex, but fleet footed, his rhythmic structures produce a soulful symbiosis with the music of long gone times of dance music. traditional elements, such as flutes or rhodes unite with sub basses, crisp kick drums and detriotesque bass lines, culminating in show-bs own definition of housemusic. shallowness, ordinarity and a simple sensation of contentment are not part of this definition.

delusions hits the spot once again with number 3, this time highlighting the production skills of a certain zepp001. the seattle based disco obsessive has been leaking out high class edits over the years under a dizzying array of deliberately forgettable pseudonyms but feels the time is right to push his original tracks. who better then to make these beauties available for you discerning djs than delusions of grandeur. dont sleep is a dark, brooding groover with throbbing bass, cute cuica fills and intense strings that lalo schifrin would be proud of. a real heavy mood setter and as good an introduction to the sound of zepp001 as you re likely to need. next up we have the mighty revenge in for remix duties on dont sleep. the much hyped master of the edit keeps the vibe of the original well and truly in place but opts for an even more stripped back approach leaving all the space for crisp claps, slowly building strings and bowel wobbling bass. flip over for giraffe, a more upbeat affair where the filtered keys come to the fore and things steer in a hyped up deep house direction. show your luv...

epic’ is the word that springs to mind when you witness the power the latest bushwacka! tracks hold over the dancefloor. picked up by pete tong early on in its life ‘show of hands’ has already enjoyed numerous plays on radio 1and is the first up on the a side of this package. percussion excellence provides the backdrop before the cruelly unforgettable hook takes things to another dimension, nevermind level. licensed to numerous compilations and with the worlds elite djs caining it, this track is sure to be a big part of your summer clubbing experience. a classic. and after the end, comes ‘the beginning’. deep hypnotic stabs and whirling melodies, evoke images of the morning after the night before, heads down clubbing at its best. the icing on a very tasty musical cake.

like any group enthralled by the history of electronic pop, the fascination movement love remixes. on the heels of their 0.5 ep, and to keep you busy while they put the finishing touches on their debut album, they give you remix vol 1. starcluster twists “radio” into burbling new dancefloor shapes with a tinge of 90s proto-house including 808 drums and roland baselines, alba (a new project with roland sebastian faber and michael black of unit 4/jupiter black) reworks “down again” into something sweeping and nocturnal, adding rock flavored live drums and a new shimmering melody on top. elitechnique stunningly suspends “just pretend” in space with spinning organs, transforming it from a propulsive pop song into something wholly different. in the days of dime a dozen remixes that consist of nothing more than retro-fitting tracks with a 4/4 beat, these beauties show off the originals in new and surprising ways.

michael forzzas is one of the most important techno djs from belgium. like figure head len faki, michael forzzas speciality is to play extended sets which develop an individual athmosphere. figure 015 is forzzas first international release, and forzza sent two unique tracks to berlin, the tenor & the monkey is destined to turn the dancefloor into a frenzy. it puts you in a state of fear and euphoria at the same time. while the tenor & the monkey puts the roof of every club on fire, high on this is more cautious. the powerful groove unfolds its energy in many contexts. the pulse of the track immediate, it feels like the music is talking to each dancer personally. the tenor & the monkey and high on this don t show any effort, yet the tracks rule over the dancefloor: they both manage to focus on the essence of club music, a rarely achieved task these days.

electric arguments is the first fireman album in 10 years, and this song based album couldnt be more different than its predecessors. for those who dont know by now, the fireman is a collaborative project between music icon paul mccartney and revered producer youth. the pair first worked together in the 90s when they made two ambient dance albums. originally the firemans identity was anonymous and was eventually revealed by the press as being paul and youth. in september it was announced that the fireman would this year release their first brand new material in a decade and this time there was a big difference - the duo had found their voice. speculation began, one studio insider was reported as saying the new songs sounds like arcade fire meets led zeppelin. certainly so far, anyone who has already heard the album has commented on just how accessible electric arguments is, compared to the first two fireman albums. this album is an eclectic and diverse collection of songs that show paul is still interested in pure musical possibilities. each track was written and recorded in the space of one day. the fireman went into the studio with no plan or clear direction of how they wanted the album to sound. the project took a life of its own and the results will surprise anyone expecting to hear the previous sound of the band.

over the past few months i have been closely watching the american presidential race. although i am canadian i have been inspired by the words of barack obama, so much so that i wanted to produce a release to show my support for his campaign. i believe when he becomes the next president of the united states he will not only change the country for the better, but will help unite the entire world. his perfect union speech lead me to the computer one afternoon and i hope you enjoy playing this release as much as i did producing it. believe in change. yes we can. - christian alvarez
