with two massive reissues from suns of arqa and jaki whitren under their belts, the fledging label emotional rescue have come up with the goods once again, with this remastered reissue of incredibly rare 70s psyche-funk from bob chance. two versions are included: the original 7 inch version, driven along by a razor-sharp guitar riff and sweetly lamenting lyrics, topped off with weird cosmic synths and galloping rhythm. however, the real gem is the edit entitled >wild its broken< which sharpens the focus of the guitar and adds some serious kick to the drums to create a beefy counterpart to the new age original.

london-based deep house label ornate music come through with another gem in the shape of the latest ep from dubbyman, filled with robust, beatdown grooves. the ep opens with >time & sensibility<, creating an all-enveloping atmosphere with its oven-warm pads and rich analogue bass, punctuated with jazzy chords and vocal murmurings. >kirigi is coming<, meanwhile, showcases dubbymans excellent knack for crafting moodymann style textures with the depth to boot, combining a solid rhythmic snap with drawn out vocal landscapes and detroit-referencing melodies. finally >uuuuhhhh!!!!< closes the ep with its breathy intro and low slung filtered grooves combining with bubbling laser sound effect

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!

already causing a stir on promo, dark arts 01 comprises 4 tracks of deeply arresting dancefloor music. mid blue is a soundtrack for the darkest corner of the warehouse. the square bass grabs you from the first bar and combines with cosmic sweeps to drag you down deep before the toms come in to add that all-important funk factor. broken space is a beautifully playful track. the stuttering beat, organic percussion and melodic touches merge with the darkest of strings to create a sound rooted in classic electronica but belonging firmly in the present. restraint is a burst of heavyweight electroid futurism – rock-solid beats and alien sounds from god-knows which galaxy combine with a razor-sharp cymbal attack. handle with care. proper deep detroit business – a quote from just one of techno’s most well-respected producers.red_dust2 is a huge, rolling tech-house rhythm, mixing the warmth of the motor city with the cold machine funk found this side of the pond. pure, timeless and custom-built for the dancefloor. mastered by one of the most well respected engineers in techno and pressed in one of europe’s finest pressing plants, dark arts 01 is limited to 250 hand stamped, clear vinyl copies.

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!

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.

after long years of work the author of unique and successful albums shallow and profound (2000) & splendid isolation (2005) is back with his new long-player, passive control, which is considered to be the third, closing part of the trilogy. passive control is another typical contradictory, multilayered yonderboi title that can be explained in different ways. one of them refers to the constantly changing and unpredictable economical/social situation of today, which is witnessed by most of us inertly, hoping that this recession-thing gets sorted out soon.

there is hardly any other track so closely connected to sven väths twelfth ibiza season, like adonis by alex ridha aka boys noize. with his fusion of energy disco with massive percussions and chicago memories, adonis fitted just perfectly to the intensive late summer we had. but theres still more to come, and so cocoon recordings are offering no less than five congenial versions: on the vinyl edition we find, besides the original version, the first remix of stone breaker mark e, dj and producer from birmingham who recently had the honour to do an album on the well-respected us label spectral sound. he skilfully transfers adonis into a hypnotic house opus with a recognisable detroit pinch.

the time has now come for eklektisch to unveil release number 006 and a debut from melohman & javi bora (20:20 / upon you). staying true to the label s ethos, the pair harnessed the warmth of the summer and with flurry of piano chords, created another feel good dancefloor anthem in >you love you<.
the first of the remixes sees label boss edu imbernon pay tribute to his summer on the white isle with his villaimberlove remix. a weighty kick drum, spritely key melody and fiercely plucked strings make for a more driving version of the original.
more upfront still, is the rework from uk house don steve mac. having spent enough time of his own in ibiza this summer and celebrated the release of his artist album >roots<, steve looks to inject a large dose of pace and tech-muscle, whilst bathing us in aggressive and effective synths.

taken from the amazing >little pianist< album from bocca grande, we are pleased to presents the new single >even if< - emotional and passioned house music that comes straight from the heart!

the exploration of the northern heights by basic soul unit and unbroken dub brings us to the eighth release on other heights. a raw, edgy, yet still very soulful ep by two northern musical explorers.

the detroit area artist/producer once called ibex is no more. due to other artists copying the ibex brand, tony ollivierra will now be recording as his real name under his new label northside district. this first release demonstrates a continued appreciation for the roots of electronic music, with several of these tracks sounding like they were buried in a time capsule back in 1987, and unearthed after marinating for twenty years or so. this should come as no surprise, since tony has been producing tracks for about that long.

as a debut 12inch release for both dj marfox and principe, >eu sei quem sou< (i know who i am) is the best title we could hope for our collective present & future intentions. it is what marfox has always made clear to us through his work - a unique vision of technological, artistic and civic advancement. everything is about having your code, knowing where you come from, about the way in which he s chosen to progress through his music.

as said in the info for dérive vol. 2 in 2010, haste makes waste. that in mind it does not surprise it took even more than a year for dérive to come up with vol. 3, but finally its there.a 1 björnski & a different jimi_9 to 5derive co-owner björnski opens up with his first release >9 to 5<, a collaboration with his partner-in-crime a different jimi. sharing a passion for deep house and jazz music, they produced this hypnotic eight minute track built around a jazzy piano loop that melts together with the bass line, surprising the listener with jimis saxophone solo. b1 achim maerz_haters gonna hate >haters gonna hate< comes from derives resident producer achim maerz who just released his first mini album >this is the end< on fine art recordings this summer. obviously it was just the beginning, as he comes up with a warm, deep and dubby yet still pushing track that lets you wanting the night to last forever. b2 tilman tausendfreund_with you the last track on this record is delivered by hamburgs latest talent, tilman tausendfreund. after releasing great solo tracks and coops with christopher rau (e.g. on contentismissing or hypercolour), on >with you< he chills it down to a funky 95 bpm, soulful sweet little something that works great both in your club and bedroom.

one year ago digitaline has released raouls very first release. it has been one of their most successful eps so far and both tracks instantly found their audience and brought raoul onto the main floors of the entire world, where it still stands confortably one year later. so what better than to celebrate one year of the label and welcome digitaline back home? same format: two tracks of deep techno, fat grooves and aerial melodies made for the dance floor. almost made on the dance floor. true! digitaline’s sound is always very inspired by their live performances and with those two tracks the boys wonderfully managed to transpose the best of their live skills, energy and dynamic. before finally being released here, both tracks have been played live on many floors throughout 2011, adjusted slowly set after set to touch every soul listening. a-side neon is a massive groove infecting the entire track through long breaks, while synth strings generate waves of tension in the piece. b-side comet is build around a big round bassline and concret noises that give the track its organic motion. the melodies of the track seem to come out of a fairy tale, dreamy arpeggios that defy the laws of gravity.

this album reminds me of those old scratchy 78s

ales boek alias alex long delivers yet another fine ep filled with four hot peak time techno-house tunes for the cold winter days to come! he sure loves his chords and stabbs and has turned his style into his distinctive sound, that can easily cross the bridge between techno and house! but once again let the music speak for itself!

tough new moves from newcomer boner m on the much loved dont outletalso features sought after subhead track on vinyl for the 1st time techno as it was in the 90s and early 2000s is hard to come across these days.gone are the killer intense riffs and hard beats that did the damage on dance floors the world over.well as usual,sidestepping the current fashions and delivering nothing but great quality off the wall techno music,dont recordings returns to smack the ball right out of the park with a brand new heavy techno 2 tracker cut extra loud for your pleasure.maverick techno legend subhead steps up and delivers intense rave-o-gedden of epic proportions. this ones been doing serious damage via cd and via the with vocals version on tunebox records for the last 2 years and has been the most asked about track of both subhead and label boss jerome hills sets during this time, with constant requests from djs to make it available.on the b-side dont brings you the debut release from a formidable new talent boner m whose track zoidar melds hard techno and disco together with distinct ease, but the results are far from what youd expect of these two genres colliding.less daft punk and more in your face overloaded bass funk. look out for more from this guy in the future.support techno before it becomes extinct!

kowton and tom dicicco, residing in bristol and manchester respectively, make very different music from one another. kowtons seems to come from house, perhaps also electro and garage, often quite slow in tempo and hard to pin down to a specific genre. toms music is techno, bass heavy, melodic, textured and rooted around 125 bpm. with these distinctive styles the idea of a split ep might seem ambitious, but the result is four cohesive but different tracks that show the talents of both artists perfectly in the format of two originals on one side and two remixes of each others originals on the other. tom diciccos original is driven by a low-mid range thick stab and pounding kick drum, littered with intricate but not overbearing hi hat and snare work and some very atmospheric mid range. kowtons is subtle and sparse, low fidelity and plodding, with rattling percusion carrying the tune along. on the other side of the record, kowtons remix of toms original is driven by an enormous bassline, with an off kilter dubby feel to the slow tempo and genre defying tune. toms remix of kowton rounds off the ep with a return to stab driven techno, pulsating, dynamic and trance inducing.

two of the most prolific names in the scene have come together for 1traxs latest release. kicking off his career as a promoter/dj of birminghams legendary below parties which have seen just about every dj worth their salt play, ashique subb-an subhan has developed into one of the most bankable producer/djs around. the sound design graduate has already graced tsuba, leftroom, hot creations, 20:20 vision, mothership and his own one records imprint while forthcoming material for culprit, spectral and crosstown rebels is set to further an already cast-iron reputation. hailed as easily the hottest emerging talent in dance music by mixmag, nominated as best breakthrough producer by dj mag and with the likes of anja schneider, jamie jones and damon alburn queing up behind to offer their praise, there is something rather special about maya jane coles. >get away< was a previous successful 1trax release, and subb-ans own take on mayas laid-back funk truly does it justice.

following their recent track on reduxs pick & mix vol. 1, the disco legend that is pete herbert and melbournes golden fleece further cement their collaboration with this full ep on space walker records. >ivory waves< is a 90s influenced cut of uplifting piano-driven balearic house, complete with lush cosmic flourishes, whilst >the bells of hackney< is a more low-slung, but no less powerful production. initially combining a snaking live bassline and spaced-out arpeggios, the track builds to a crescendo as heavily flanged piano and tights guitar licks come into play. the b-side meanwhile serves up two remixes of >ivory waves<, lithuanias downtown party network recompose it as an even more-good time anthem (if such a thing is possible) with their trademark melodic charm, while slovenias sare havlicek takes the track into deeper territory bringing the thick bassline teasing the melody with dubbed out stabs, slowly bringing the huge piano line in before dropping it with force, taking the anthem potential of the original and running with it.

double 12 inch release, cut on 45rpm. comes in gatefold cover, including lyrics and liner-notes.

coloured vinyl: solid dark green and white mixed. after tokyo prose successful entrance onto the scene with their introducing series creativity began to flow. a series of collaborations with numerous producers began and it was inevitable some of these would bare great results. phil tangent had one of the singles of 2010 for marcus intalex soul:r label and was a perfect creative partner for the ideas charged tokyo prose. >parity< marries the pairs styles perfectly, with a euphoric vocal tempered by subtle gliding beats and bass. >rearview< is a sign of what drum and bass is missing in 2011. smooth, deep and soulful music that reminds us again how powerfully emotive the genre can be.
dj support from marcus intalex, dj marky, spectrasoul, presha and more to come..

free to be is a monstrous, house-submerged affair, as low-slung as they come and in a classic murk vibe. berliner hunee delivers a spot on remix on the title track and brings it into deeper territory reminiscent of early prescription releases. he is transforming the original mix into something fuller, warmer and almost epic. down to nothing is another slow pumping house nugget. with its soothing and soaring synths, ebb-and-flow arrangement, inviting melody and vocals, this is another bomb fitting every house set. things get even slower with why dont you. a great house tune with a sensuous vibe.
