finest 2001 kurbel v/a release with tracks by lars sommerfeld, jackmate vs nik reiff, jörg bergs and thomas kufner

excellent debut for french label room 613, clubby minimal tech, with a bouncy feeling perfect for the dancefloor, made even stronger by an ion ludwig (resopal/phonocult/stock 5) remix on the b side

cosmic club is a label focused on releasing original obscure dance classic. for this 5th release, we give you the opportunity to grab 2 fantastic trax once again, brand image are you lovin? a pure cosmic italo disco gem, a track very rare to find and sought after in its full instrumental version, it made us think about an italo disco version of chk chk chk!!! and as a bonus we put also on the b side, another italo cult classic from lectric workers the garden, both tracks have been played by the big daniele baldelli for years now and obviously all the italo cosmic disco freaks on this planet!

its been six months since the last moxie and spring seems like a good time for a new release. spring means joy and so three very joyful, sexy cuts have made it to this release. we can rant on about obscure originals etc, but in the end its about good music and these tracks make us feel good.

two building up monsters with very precise production and clear mixing. these tracks will dominate the floor for sure and drive people crazy with their hypnotic style. the return of a. mochi, who made his name not only with releases on luke slater s >mote evolver< imprint, also his last kumo-release was a massive success by finding a way to combine shaky minimal grooves with the energy of clearly arranged, straight techno

artillery is back! dj amok compiled three new releases for the hard techno fans all over the world and he starts of with this great new release from waldhaus! and what a killer it is, waldhaus made his name on labels like skull tunes andcombat skills. crazy samples big kicks and a touch of humor makes this a release not to be missed!!

definitely for the house headz in search of straight in yer face sensations, both the components of this ep are the perfect illustrations of an ongoing movement fusing the countless elements which have made the contemporary groove what it is since the arrival of the electronic kraut and disco in the mid 70s. from the infectious dubbyphonk deeptechy the pressure, to the essential discorgasmic vogue sounding like an unlikely jam featuring lil louis, les l.a. mix adams and the memorable john davis & the monster orchestra.

this time lucien foort teams up with the beautiful nicole tyler. she has been the voice of milk n sugars big hit has your man got soul. together they made the fabulous let talk! roger sanchez was one of the first to receive the record from lucien and has been on support ever since.

nice price deal !!! lickin records label bosses sunloverz return with their brand new project called trashfunk on the starlet recordings imprint. their task was to remix the 80s cult record talking in your sleep from the romantics which is still played by jocks like armand van helden or felix da housecat, and they doubtless made a great job. for all full on vocal haters there is also a kickin dub mix and a stunning ben delay remix.

limited split ep to the wmc 2008, ultraphat electro / techhouse made for peaktime pleasure

mr. pink the new house talent from switzerland release his 3th record. for this new release, mr. pink worked together with chris reece and electro puzzyloverz. dj antoine and mad mark, made a huge remix. the first time for a swiss dj!!!.

incl massive surgeon remix - tip. in 2002 the japanese artist go hiyama made his debut on james ruskin s imprint coda records, followed by releases on electracom, maracas, warm up records and also on audio assault. now he returns on audio assault with >geometrical<, showing techno is more than just a pounding beat. on the flip side >geometrical< is remixed by surgeon, who after many years still is top of the bill in today s techno scene.

supported by agoria, deetron, funk d void, martin landsky, joris voorn, gregor tresher, karotte and many many more.. after several cooperations with his mates h.o.s.h. and stimmig, and a lot of own releases on other labels, this is the first all-own ep of solomun on diynamic! you maybe wont believe it - but it s like that! and because home is the sweetest place on earth, we invite the guests we love and like in this case, we are fans of ourselfs, jamie odell, better known as jimpster or audiomontage, who made a lot of deeptechhouse hearts happy with his productions an his own label freerange during the last years

luscious, epic and british are not words you would usually associate with an emo band. but i was a cub scout are not your ordinary emo outfit - they re two hardcore souls with passion and emotion dripping out of every pore. and its this passion that has captivated audiences up and down the country. the duo, made up of todd marriott and william bowerman, have come a long way in the 18 months they ve been together. they ve supported bands like babyshambles, panic at the disco, editors and forward russia, played to packed out audiences at download and the carling reading and leeds festivals and made one of the most life affirming albums of 2008, i want you to know that there is always hope, which has been produced by hugh padgham . in a climate of indie band soup, i was a cub scout stand apart. a very british band raised on a diet of american music. a duo who manage the feat of being both indie and rock, punk and prog, small yet big...

second set of remixes for this genre straddling track, featuring the vocal talents of soul sensation in waiting, ben westbeech. marrying the kraakers future funk and hip hop beats with a sensational perfomance from the young bristolian made this track a sure bet as the first choice single although the band did release a couple of warm up eps to remind everyone why their debut album boogie angst was a worldwide success. here trevor loveys, mainstay of the dubsided label, originator of the fidget house sound alongside switch, sinden and jesse rose and partner of herve in the huge selling speakerjunk project, turns in a hot vocal remix that pumps the track towards a different dancefloor altogether. he also found time to serve up a tasty dub that neatly crosses the divide between bassline and techy fidget house. one for the festivals this summer no doubt!

excellent 2 tracker by deadmau5 vs jelo. includes john made remix

tech -/minimal -/electrohouse tracks made in italy by jay high & fabrix, franz, blanda & galati and ferro & sarullo. includes scalambrin & sicily mixes

as one of the most influential house labels of the 80s sleeping bag has stood the test of time with its releases. 25 years on and the tracks still provide the dance world with a regular source of sample material. here on this double lp compilation are some of sleeping bags most seminal records released during a ten year period, which brought to attention the sublime production talents of the labels cofounder arthur russell and a&r skills of curtis mantronik. the collection contains the track dinosaur l produced by russell, remixed and subsequently made famous by francois kevorkian. the sleeping bag family also extended to legendary producer and dj todd terry, who re mixed several of sleeping bags tracks. also featuring on this release is joyce sims with two tracks taken from her hit album come into my life. after the death of russell in 1992 the label limped on for awhile but finally shut its doors the same year.

the ravage continues with demolition 10, the vinyl sampler! including a broad range of hardcore tracks by promo, d passion and n vitral. following up on the great impression of the tablet promo continues his story telling vibe with a brand new track. the b side contains tracks by two artists which are definitely carved out of the hardest of ttm wood. self made is a perfect example of the typical hardcore sound by d passion. recognizable and at all times party minded! the darkest experiments from this collection of demolition beats come from n vitral and his defliction production, complicated at first but ever so driving in a hard industrial tech kind of way.

good news from the merkur kunst headquarters, a.k.a the japanese diaspora embassy: our attempt to enrich berlin cultural activities with a japanese interpretation of electronic music has found its voice with a first 12inch vinyl release. merkur 01 features gonno, a tokyo based artist who already released on uks perc records and japans wc recordings. his track >es< is a pulsating dancefloor twister build on a solid bass substrat rising with warm and tripped out pads. the flipside brings two tracks by merkurboss shingo suwa. he operates the japanese machines in a classic chicago style - percussive, hypnotic and with this specific grasp only the inventors can provide. these tracks are well made uptempo technotunes with a slight touch of aristrocratic reserve

nice price deal !!! dirty things, dirty beats, dirty synths, sexy music! sheldon combines organic elements with electronic sounds and creates a high quality house tune.

supported by tom clark, sasse, 2000 and one, woody, paolo martini, 3 channels, adultnapper, dj naughty, garnier and many more.. mindforce is an extra special release we have put together for you. it features an excellent remix by kabale und liebe who is currently causing a big stir amongst the house community with his deep and dark minimal groovers, needless to mention his big hit mumbling yeah that was in the charts of almost every dj and became one of the key tracks last year. also his upcoming productions on the dutch remote area label are amongst our favourite tracks so we couldn’t resist to ask this guy to do an interpretation of a special track we made. mindforce is a bit different to the rest of the dirt crew output, we wanted to make a more reduced grooving dj tool that is still old school but on the other hand contains an hypnotic feel that is more likely to be found in current minimal productions

die neue border !! ohne worte !!

french clibbing young duo julien hox and didark made a fuckin slammin prog tune that keeps building up. including a nice progressive version, this is an awesome release.

radio is one of the highlights of felix da housecat fantastic third album, virgo blaktro & the movie disco. its a shimmering three minute synth soul reverie. with its cascading i cant live without my radio chorus and dippy goosebump melody, radio could be a kissing cousin of buggles 80s hit video killed the radio star. needless to say, its tailor made for the airwaves and is already picking up strong support the board.

this is the long awaited first e.p. release from loungins very own trevor loveys & chris belsey aka li ll bo tweak, with pressin on - a real jacker which captures the sound of the moment & will be one for anyone who is feeling the dubsided, speaker junk & made to play sound. next up is bring it on down, another 80s boogie...

the original of song for marie and elise is a melancholic pop jewel, which was made for the movie in your head. the remix comes from the disco superstars aeroplane (of which vito is also a part of). they keep the sweet melody, but put a fatass bassline under it to shook to your very heart and soul and make this an outstanding remix. flip over you ll get code 7429. it combines 90s rave sounds with a stunning piano making this a dancefloor sureshot. hot hot hot!

the title track made a brief appearance last year, garnering spins from the likes of fergie on radio 1. its now primed for full release, retaining its cool stuttering bleeped out hook atop a strident bassline thats designed to make sure no one can physically stand still, whether they want to or not. its also catchy as fuck. mike healey drops a cleaner remix that techs it out some, the first third or so of the track just twitters, phased sounds and hints at whats to come. its 1.00am central trip material until that bass finally implodes. are we alone? is a deeper closing cut, with suitably zoned out vocal samples and more electro tech shenanigans, making for a near essential ep for those who like it dark and trippy.

4 smashing tracks by fl-x are on this ep. this producer of hardtechno is on the rise, especially after his first vinyl release in 2007 on the spanish label killfactory recordings. furthermore he has a partnership for bookings with the spanish agency trivialmusik, which made him popular the past year, especially in spain

the kazey & bulldog picture disc is followed by the first d2s release from our hero rod lee - a baltimore legend in his own right and in our eyes the no. 1 club producer, bar none. this super aggro dude has serious issues. he just needs to open his mouth and kids cry flames. for his first d2s release, rod commits re-mastered versions of two of our favourite cuts produced by the man. we first heard >understand< when we scored a bunch of scottie bs ebay auctions, and to this day its one of the best baltimore tracks ive ever heard. you can play this sh*t anywhere and the crowd just freaks out. hip hop heads love it, techno heads love it, even your girlfriend loves it. we coupled it with rods simple but ultra effective remix of the eurythmics classic, >sweet dreams<. when the catch an attitude tour dropped in on our club in glasgow, a-trak dropped this beast for all of 30 seconds and people went nuts. bannanas even. you could argue that the eurythmics remix thing is overdone and outdated, but if you did so, wed know for sure you hadnt heard rods version. anyway... we tracked it down and got it on the flip, so really this is more like a double a. both cuts are re-mastered (but still raw like the day they were made) and cut loud on heavy 12inch vinyl

earlier hakan lidbo productions !! ltd backstock.. 80s disco pop influences

after unleashing the celebrated bare fist edits on us, the mysterious monsieur gateaux is back with a stunning original production. much is being made of the cosmic revival, and sure enough this does tick all the mid tempo, blissed out balearic boxes, but theres much more to love about dune, with its spacious ways and early 80s european electronic, dubbed out psychedelic vibe, shot through with a little eastern promise. its little wonder its been receiving major props from the bearded elders of sit down djing, off the back of a handful of early copies surfacing in the uk. as if that wasnt enough, the (not so) mysterious phoreski taken over the remix duties here!!!

full support from 2000 and one, karotte, sebo k, tobi neumann, adultnapper, jamie jones and more.. beautiful deep detroit tech music !!have you ever experienced the empty spaces of ghost city detroit? they inspired sten aka lawrence to this hypnotic 12inch- three versions of >squares<. the deep techtunes can be regarded as an hommage to early derrick may tracks, heath brunner and all detroit techno bunch from back to now. functional grooves from the roland machines on a melodic soundcarpet plus the mighty detroit string section- this one is made to dance, eyes closed, the heart open. peter m. kersten aka lawrence / sten launched the dial label in 2000 together with his flat mate and dj friend carsten jost

philadelphia hip hop quintuplet plastic little has made quite a name for themselves this past year, with singles the jump off, and crambodia (featuring ghostface).

patterns introduces another killer on the hot and running imprint. this time its boriqua tribez who has made an even bigger follow up to the big time seller patterns 31. houze arrest can be described as pure tribally beats and big time energy throughout the whole track creating the perfect dancefloor vibe. the flip is as big a burner as the a-side, just spin it and see what happens

generator heading in the direction of classic acid house with chicagos mauser who made his first contribution with his industrial remix of neon sex fiends elektrofive. 4 seriously beatin acid jack trax, styled after traditional phuture like acid workouts, incorporating detroit soul and chicago jack. guaranteed to destroy dancefloors

the bass heavy >mallorca< is featured in remixes by mood music head honcho sasse and composts newcomers marbert rocel, while llorca from paris has turned >incredible< into a club banger. the brothers javi and luis aka wagon cookin are lucky buggers. their recent album >2faces< is getting tons of props from illustrious supporters like osunlade, king britt, laurent garnier, rainer trüby or llorca. then christian prommer picked up their first single >start to play< and conducted a true remix masterpiece reaping even more flatteries from ben watt, jimpster, ashley beadle, markus enochson… in summer time you can find the guys chillin on their favourite mediterranen rock: mallorca. they like this place that much that they even made a song about it which turned out to be the best kept secret from >2faces< - a bass heavy groove monster and deejays fave which finally sees its well deserved release on vinyl to be played out loud in the clubs. and as this wasnt enough reason to celebrate, mood music head honcho sasse lindblad and french connection ludovic llorca (of f-com fame) check in to deliever top notch remixes of >mallorca< and the b-side track >incredible<. last but not least compost newcomers marbert rocel join the gang to make their debut as remixers, and the result is quite impressive - althought their version of >mallorca< is a little bit more dancefloor orientated than their >speed emotions< album material. enjoy!

the london duo made up of dan gerber and saul good debuted with the single dirty bumf&#146,in 2005, through rip records. now on thunder finger records, kerowack has released their initial multi-track work, appropriately titled the first ep.

sometimes, its still worth not to waste your youth with nonsense but to learn to play an instrument. like in the case of sebastian mullaert, who has learned to play violin, organ and piano, while his partner marcus henriksson rather came from kraftwerk and human league to electronic music. as son kite, the two swedes have already a well-known name in the psy-trance scene, and as minilogue, they now start to conquer the minimal and house world. with their rather unique sound, they manage the tightrope walk between minimal and trance and never allow us to put them into a drawer. especially with their debut on cocoon rec, minilogue present themselves in a different way, compared to their releases on traum or wagon repair. >jamaica< is a calm track at the first hearing and is perfect for building up a set. beginning with bird-like sounds, the track builds up slowly and quickly becomes very interesting and tricky, ramifies as organic as a climbing plant, and when the tribal sound emerges from the underground, this track has exactly what makes minilogue so special: organic matter and groovy sounds, worked into a minimal labyrinth with very much love for the details. all of that can also be found on the b side which seems to be more adequate for the morning hours, with its somehow spacey sound. with >jamaica<, mullaert and henriksson prove that they are floating on the very surface of the endless minimal ocean. and with their album >animals< being already in sight on cocoon recordings, one can be highly anxious of what is coming ahead, by minilogue and techno made in sweden

again a big hit on the slized label!!!! made by jaziah... again very nice eclectic house, with refreshing sounds!! dj support & playlist by: cliff jones, sidney samson, afrojack, chucky, hardwell & many more

this album contains instrumental versions of songsby the human league specially remixed and produced by martin rushent. originally released in 1981. dont miss this

ivan smagghe: >best record this year!!< further support coming from chloe, prins thomas (on minus 6), tiefschwarz, karotte, laurent garnier… tip ! the first release of forcetracks in 2008 has the catalog no.082 and is made by the upcoming artists cerosine nathalies. this project is produced by the both berliners philip bader and sasha hirtenfellner. the title >on time< is pleading for to be in time on the dance floor, because the track on the a-side is deep, gloomy and needs a essential dancing. with the oriental vibrant tune in the middle of the track will be the a-side a massive club hit! the b-side comes to the fore with a stracato-vocal sample, a clicky starting minimal track, friendly grooving until the sunshine is merging with the lights in the club.

huge new 12inch from the master himself! >dont panic – its automatic< – a title that is in many ways descriptive for a track that fires the creative starting shot for anthony rother in 2008. recently having been not more than consistent, rother heralded a stylistic reorientation of his music, however, with last years programmatic >moderntronic< ep. on the a-side, >dont panic<, with the vocoder voices that have come back after a long time now, stays closely associated with the sound and the aesthetic of datapunk - a unique vision of a futuristic abstraction between techno, disco and electro. the dataclash mix on the b-side then formulates the stylistic new beginning with a consistency that leaves the listener speechless. rarely before on datapunk has homage been paid to the imperative of energy so rigorously. going against the grain with extremely surprising noise effects, the dataclash mix is tailor-made even for reductionist dj sets in its psychoactive darkness. a thrilling foretaste of the third rother album on datapunk, announced for the coming year

this project was born of the american culture of consumption. field recordings were made in metropolitan shopping centers during the united states holiday season. conversations drifted into ambient sounds of money being spent, commerce being transacted. the results of these recordings were then sent to artists to be turned into music

another bomb that will definitely not make it through airport security undetected. explosive kicks serenade a nasty acid line over a signature dalessandro-style vocal. this peak timer is no holds barred techno armageddon. new york based clink rec artist elon makes his debut appearance for the siteholder team with a storming remix. twisted effects, a unique take on the vocal, and a pulsating bass line define this hard-hitting approach. fearless in its pursuit and certainly without any room for prisoners, this re-working of >are you there< comes out of the gate sprinting and never lets down. another successful new york-chicago connection has been made. rounding out the ep, brian ffar follows up his highly successful >ballroom hustler< ep with a take on the single reflecting his cultivated production style. an atmospheric tech house approach reveals well-placed synths over the drawn out vocal from the original. but dont assume this is child s play, ffars kick drum isnt afraid to pummel a club systems subs. the avalanche inducing bass line that follows caps off this fifth siteholder record with a very clear message: >are you there< is serious business
