stanislav sevostyanikhin returns under his kontext guise with four tracks of tightest dubtech minimalism on immerse. these are his first konext productions since the impressive >dissociate< album, continuing a trajectory into widescreen dub techno and clipped, post-dubstep rhythm programming. >no more room in hell< combines the luscious atmospheres of pendle coven or bvdub with subtle glitching rhythms, while >daphnia pulex< adds glassy electronic melodies and padded subs to the equation. most interesting of all is >sattva<, rolling raga drones into his morphing dub chords and crafty future garage stabs, kinda like pole meets farben on a dusky autumnal evening. if you ever wanted a more reduced ramadanman, or a glitchier appleblim, this is well worth checking...

slamming 4 track vinyl sampler, from funky chicago house (sneaky) to monster techhouse action (luca bortolo --> already played by sis)... top notch 12 inch!!!

first on decks.de !!!a fancy franco-german remix session full of thriving techno pleasure. oui oui!

a2: rejdowak (freak de philipe vs parasit remix) light-hearted pounding techno attitude with a humorous slightly ironic touch, this implements a wise smile on the faces of true electronic music enthusiasts.
b: fm melodie in e-moll (kettenkarussell notbremsen remix) kettenkarussell from weimar manage the impossible: completely transforming >melodie in e-moll< by neal white while at the same time keeping much of its spirit. they create an elegant and gentle groove which smoothly seem to transform into a hip-hop beat. well, thats not the end of the story! experimental and extraordinary.

after a strong start this year with a unique ep by queen atom, alias cesare vs disorder (special edits by seuil and ahmet sisman) serialism comes back on the dancefloor with a stunning ep by london new comer pablo tarno.
pablo joined the serialism / mean / essential reload crew as moforize (does that ring a bell?) and delighted our public with a pearl on production side as well by giving refined dj sets. the ep is powerful, every tune is a classic, ranging from beautiful elegant deep house to percussive tech house with hip hop, dub, funk and techno influences.

once again another masterpiece from the dynamic reflection squad in your face! this time its from the uk monster voidloss. the title track acteon is already an oldy and paul felt in love with it a long time ago. it was already digital released in 2007, but we asked voidloss if he wanted to see this on pure gold as well... and of course he wanted that! so why dont we put up an whole ep with more dancefloor killers of this man? grovskopa is always capable of delivering good remixes and so he did. this time something a little bit different then what you expect, but with this track he shows us what an open mind he has on techno. rolling crunchy basslines and smooth pads bring this track in a perfect vibe to set the tone for the night. moment of total emptiness is a more deeper and hypnotic tune, but will definitely bang your head on the dancefloor. mr. a. paul is going for the rework and came up with a really great uplifting and oldschool touch. perfect tool to use in your dj sets! all n all a superior release by this uk studio wizard. lets pray for more of this pure quality stuff and keep our eyes on the the future. the scene need more labels like this which reflects the current techno movement and promises loads more of that sweet stuff in days to come.. dynamic reflection will represent only the true spirit of pure techno, they will put only the quality stuff back on the dancefloor!

orange it is. our second release has hit the shops and the first reactions are great. again we collected some very interesting tunes from all over the world. expect banging house music as well as some relaxed and groovy stuff for me and the ladies. this time we have four tracks instead of three and even though this fact calls for a campaign under the motto >get 33% more...< we still serve music and no cleaning agent.

nice price deal !!! for their fifth release todd bodine (highgrade, treibstoff, mothership) joined the cologne based label klangfarbe schallplatten and created a high-quality ep, which is hard to find today. duplexer (a1) initially allocates with bongos in space, to furthermore stabilize itself with more bass, percussion and volume, which leads into a durable, massive flow that s willing to persist bigger club duties as well. alpha (b2) is structurized akin to duplexer, but celebrates the true force, the true might of minimal by the use of consistently repetition of beat- and sound patterns as also psychedelic acid-parts in good, old plastikman tradition. morning breeze on b2 finally starts warmer and more housy, in a deep and easy lean-back manner, to distinctly cool down after a while and to approach the previous tracks. after all, the from nowhere to somewhere ep constitutes an extremely coherent ep, where it s obvious, that all three tracks mate together - as they are

dandy jack is well known for his multiple collaborations. its now about time to lay them down on wax.
the second chapter is a honest, loud and direct ode to the joy of queen bass. if you are searching for deep house and abstract minimal you should better pass your way.
dandy jack teams up with geneva fellows lad and quenum on the a side for what could be described as a tremendous and heavy ride into the catacombs of techno. sonja moonear has a slightly happier and smoother answer on the b side and challenges us with a long and percussive intro that leads into a melancholic twist. quenum and lad arent new to the electronic music and have been active over a decade. they have already been working together for labels like num and thema. sonja is dandys partner in crime as junction sm and ruta5s half head.

bergerac is the new record label set up by uk producer and dj red rack’em (aka danny berman) to showcase the more dancefloor end of his music productions. danny is well known for his wonky disco outings as hot coins on tirk and also his deep as hell beatdown house on untracked. his style of production and djing have recently taken a slightly more banging angle due to the influence of larger scale festival gigs such as glastonbury, snowbombing and the big chill. so it seemed like the perfect time to start a label focussing on house and techno for the more discerning dancefloor. the label artwork will feature bespoke illustrations from german artist silke eiselt of all the houses danny has lived in chronologically. how much more fucking house can you get than that? how i program is a raw, heads down, whacked out banger, which straddles the wafer thin divide between house and techno with aplomb. with a massive loud donking bass noise, seedy late night atmosphere and danny shouting about how he programs his shit - this is some freaky deaky peak time business. next up is bonn, a warm crackly rhodes driven halcyon house moment, which evokes the slightly majestic and nostalgic vibe of people dancing alone together in a hot room at the end of the night. cheering sourced directly from bonn in 1982 mixes with naive keywork and distant female chants the first bergerac ep closes with it happens to us all, which could be an ode to prematurely greying men, the onset of senility or occasional farting in public places. its definitely a prime slice of wrong house with some seriously french hi hats and dubbed out bassline action though. yes, its more syncopated than an exploding castanet factory but thats how we like that kind of funk

murmur has become a gem in the stone path of electronic music labels, a consistent voice of quality through their series of vinyl and global events. no fit state is a vinyl sampler for the label, bringing together some gifted artists and insightful music to celebrate the label s journey. claire ripley opens the package with a solomun remix of slow loris , released earlier this summer on timorous ep. best known for releases on steve bug s dessous recordings, claire is an undeniable talent with flair for getting the feet moving. solomun pulls the trigger with his remix in a capricious whirlwind track setting the skies alight with energy. label head geddes pairs up for another collaboration with the skilled young australian, mic newman, after big releases on the tsuba label as well as murmur. rework is available on digital only release, a rattling snake of a record alive with chords and softly spoken calls.

beg to differ is a dance music duo comprised of house hero nick chacona and wurst label boss roy dank. the two longtime friends started tinkering around in the studio last year, remixing the likes of detachments for thisisnotanxit as well as nicks solo outing with kathy diamond for moodmusic, and quickly finding favor with fellow new yorkers james murphy and holy ghost!. influenced by talking heads, my bloody valentine, and paulsimpson, beg to differs work is characterized by big hooks, live instrumentation, and lush production. the duos wurst debut features two massive - and decidedly different - reworks. parisian afrobeat masters bibi tanga & the selenites get the full beg to differ overhaul on >be africa<, complete with infectious arpeggios, killer keys, and an entirely new rhythm section, with nick himself on bass duties. the pop rock of the hours >ali in the jungle< is transformed into an epic, string-laden anthem taking in disco, rock, and even trance by the end of the mix. heavy to say the very least.

raised in the parisian suburb with a background of multiple genres throughout her life : from rock and new-wave to electronic music such as synth-pop, minimal techno, jungle, house, disco and 90s hip hop, malilones productions have helped express her influences and incorporate her emotion into the dubstep tempo we all love. malilone production has seen support from producers like matt-u, von d and bunzero as well as featuring in numerous dj gigs from paris to berlin.

the heat of summer into an urban canyons night of fresh air. in berlin. or manchester. maybe in budapest even. it is warm, but not that close and hot anymore. a soft wind blows through the leaves and ripples the surface of the small puddles the rain left on the streets. with relaxed enthusiasm a man walks up to his house where he will decant a well-tempered sangiovese while waiting for the woman with whom he will chat till dawn.
with three reworkings of one of their tracks from the full-length album >13<, the trio from manchester conjures such an atmosphere on their vinyl release on binemusic, inviting you to (day-)dream or relaxedly bob across the dancefloor. and maybe even bear the waiting time while stuck in traffic.

the first single taken from the well-received album >black city<, >little people (black city)< comes with the original version and a huge mark e cut.

coming up with his new release, berlin based producer mark klemens takes us on a little journey through his production work of the last decade. well known for his production- and composing skills, he also worked for acts like micatone, phoneheads, skinny norris and more, always adding his fine blend of groove and musicality. enjoy this trip.

following on from the superbly received debut release, waiting game, sudden drop produces the goods once more with a split release thats destined to go down well with the more discerning dj.

the martinez/mesteo remix of the club classic >under the water< is the first leg in a series of remixes to be patiently released throughout 2010 - initiated by one half of the original brother brown outfit, atle, now operating under the moniker one brother. the martinez/mesteno mix has only been sent to a carefully selected handful of friends and family around the world (less than 15 movers and shakers). simply to see if we can give this mix the longestpossible and well deserved (we think anyway) run for itsmoney. please do enjoy!

siula grande is another needwant dancefloor friendly release with two great remixes from pete herbert and burnski to back two innovative originals. title track >siula grande< grips the floor with a hypnotic house groove and dark rave bassline, capturing the raw energy of early classics as well as the complexity of modern production skills and buoyancy of current house music. piano led melodies lead into enveloping breakdowns and result in a true dancefloor weapon. pete herbert is renowned for knowing what the dancefloor want. on his rework of >siula grande<, he highlights that groove that makes the original such a stand out track, and adds a nineties inspired piano and guitar lick - lifting the track to new heights. >for all time< is a 9-minute workout of deep slo mo funk inspired melody. lazy beats dance on a backdrop of embracing sounds producing an evolving journey into space and time. on the remix burnski, one of a new school of profilic house producers, injects the depth of house music and energy of modern techno, focusing purely on the groove in his >time to go dub<...
