pophop looks like a pirate, and what he launches from his music studio sounds like pirate ships. on board of these ships there s always a very colorful, exotic bunch of personalities. they are the multicultural characters of the original tracks from all corners of the world. under the command of pophop they sail straight towards the eye of the thunderstorm, which means the heart of the dancefloor. it s the place where he feels home. little by little pophop accumulated so many remixes, edits and own tracks that they fill a whole treasure chest. that s exactly what you get: a treasure chest full of dancefloor gold, and a string of pearls that is a mixed version of all these precious grooves.

a year after their impressive last album burn it down, detroit techno legends octave one are back with a nine track double ep that again shows they are masters of big hypnotic grooves. entitled love by machine, the albums name is a nod to the fact that the burden brothers are such revered masters of their hardware. both in the studio, where they cook up atmospheric house and techno with soaring synths and vocals and also in the live arena, where they are celebrated as one of the most accomplished and forward thinking performers in the game today. that is all the more impressive when you bear in mind they have been active since the 80s, most often releasing on their own 430 west label, which is where they appear again here.

for the past seven years kornel kovacs has been busy rocking dancefloors and boomboxes worldwide as one third of stockholms studio barnhus alongside axel boman and petter nordkvist. the label and dj trio is spearheading a new era of fearless swedish off-centre dance music, straddling the line between the cute and the menacing. anticipation for kovacs debut album has been rocketing following stand out releases like 2014s wistful szikra, last years mad party anthem pantalon on glasgows numbers imprint and the late night groove of space jam on smallville records. on the bells, kovacs pops open his trunk full of sounds nicked from the lost and found bins of nightclubs all over the world. from the distorted organ chords of bb to the stripped down trancehall beats of joseys tune and sziv utca and the title tracks cinematic romanticism, its all of the bells and all of the whistles - further positioning kornel kovacs as one of the most characteristic producers of modern house music. the record was completed in an intense two-week session with kovacs great friend and great studio engineer matt karmil in the cold winter of 2016. another close friend, artist malin gabriella nordin, has created the album artwork together with her brother jonas.

the first years, from his first album in 1976 to his 7th in the middle of the 80s, were fuelled with an exemplary sense of creativity and a free-spirit vision. against everyoneÕs advice, cerrone was never reluctant to compose long and pure trance disco tracks, not exactly radio-friendly at the time, but which did incredibly well because they encapsulated the hedonism of the day and were far more than a trend. for instance, love in c minor and supernature have become unbeatable classics, featured regularly in the best pop, disco or dance selections. such a success would have burnt most of the othersÕ wings, whose career would have been ruined. at the beginning of the 80s, when he decided to unleash his creativity on stage, cerrone managed to rebound with you are the one studio album.

after two re-releases of conrad schnitzler classics, (zug & ballet statique) now m=minimal releases a completely new work from the pioneer of electronic music. conrad schnitzler is a sound explorer. for many years, he has been on expeditions, journeys through his collection of electronic synthesizers almost every day. sounds he liked has been conserved on tape and stored in his sound library. the result is a huge library of audio files, he calls them >solen<. >borngrŠber & struever< have got the chance to examine that library and started to con-struct new pieces out of the hidden gems. these are not remixes but new compositions. none of the sound combinations were thought or heard before. the 8 tracks form an album independent of any trend and therefore it becomes a real acoustic environment for everyone. the album was produced at studio.wannsee. to give the album more authenticity, the complete audio processing was done using analog equipment. they not only used many classics among the finest synthesizers and outboard equipment, but also custom built tube gear. the icing on the cake are the tubes used from the 60s, which bought christian borngrŠber on a trip through the atacama desert in a small radio repair business in the city of calama. thanks to the desert climate even the packaging of the tubes looked as new

techfui returns with another stand out 12” this summer as label founder salah sadeq delivers a refined remix package of the sought after “hibiki awa” a track which was initially released four years ago with studio companion rashed al dhaen on their “locus” release. a partnership that was built during covid restrictions, clicking directly when starting to jam, all whilst enjoying the “hibiki awa” japanese whisky during the extended sessions. for the tastemakers amongst us, it is great news that the techfui imprint continues to carry the torch, presenting sleek and classy house music for the dance floor. after many years of producing music together in bahrain and releasing music, four years on we get to appreciate the masterpiece track once more with this heavy hitting, and eclectic remix package.

heavy support by radio slave, sam divine, acid pauli, green velvet and maceo plex to name a few, while also being played on radio stations world wide. the album <axen> marks the beginning of a new chapter for the glitz as they embark on a journey beyond the world of electronic music. after a wide range of beautiful, inspiring, provoking and uplifting the glitz-singles, we are now approaching the full album in all its might. the singles have shown us the diverse soundscapes you can find in andreas and daniels musical multiverse, with the genres ranging from the classic house and techno genres, to also introducing their take on trip hop, neo rnb, hip hop, ballad and electronica. this journey into their musical realm has resonated with fans and colleagues alike the last months, putting the first single on position 1 in the german club charts for four weeks straight (it is still in the beatport top100 after 7 months). born out of a desire to create a space to explore and expand their unique sound, their new album <axen> is a bold extension of the glitz vision and purpose. it has been a long time coming and is the result of four intense years in the studio together with the unique and talented singer and songwriter mulay. and now it is time to present the full album to the world. <axen> is the mesmerising product of one of their many jam sessions in the studio. it carries the unique the glitz fingerprints all over it while also letting them shine in a new context. the slow flowing hip hop beat paired with mulays raw vocals and incredibly poetical and personal lyrics is a must hear for old and new the glitz-fans alike.
