the final chapter of vonstrokes limited vinyl album remixes features some seriously low end.
remix #1 is one the favorites of the entire project. claude met brazils dj marky on an artist bus at a uk festival last summer and gave him the track >aundy<. he asked him to do a mix and marky and his friend s.p.y. turned in this amazing drum n bass version. numerous artists have been dropping it even in the middle of house sets! it really captures the drum n bass feeling of the original track taking it back to the genre which inspired it.
remix #2 is from our up and coming bristol based bass prodigy, julio bashmore. he takes on >california< the co-production by cvs and j phlip to another level, adding smooth low end bukem style bass drops and shimmery vox/pad programming to the already insane track. bashmore is one of the few new breed of uk producers who cross over all the way from house to dubstep.

after a little break neroli is back to celebrate its 10th anniversary with some new music from various friends of the label. this series of eps will show the many styles of the label, following the footsteps of the basic laws series.
this is the 2nd part and features jennifa mayanjas amazing ethereal spiritual boogie >sunset<, chicagos anthony nicholson with the deep and groovy >communication<, macunian and prime numbers artist be with a disco number entitled >so< and the neroli aficionado football player nutmegin one of his essential minimal workouts.

with support by john selway, stephan bodzin, perc, technasia, xhin, tony rohr, dean facer and many more. the catalogue number 013 on the berlin label phunkit records is at the same time the starting shot for the first vinyl release. and exactly this one shows down-to-earth techno from the capital, elaborated and cunning, by the artist duo takt tick. the actual overhead conveyors and host djs from the tresor club present trend-setting productions. the name >u1< is, brought to the point, a little journey through the time of berlins underground. the a1 side sends the listener on a trip which is coined by dynamical passages of highs and crispy bass parts. uncompromisingly does the rhythm chase around the focused, flogging consonance and the slowly modulated intervals with short breaks. on the b side: >whisper<, a subtle peak-time monster which does not know any kind of holdup, full of energy and only waiting for the chance to make the strobes lose their wind. >black worms is a b2-bomber for sure. with its dusky sounds, it is solidly rolling without downward movement. shady, resonant, consequent and remorseless.

leonel castillo is undoubtedly argentinas most gifted producer. while his releases remain extremely rare, his daily creations keep adding and adding onto the thousands of tracks he produced over the past 20 years. on this very special artist ep - leonel castillo, the great engineer, sets some intricate and complex rhythmics in motion, forging el salon de los espejos into a highly feverish hotbox of a record. get this right: no other man can develop such elaborate and throbbing patterns as he does. from his lucious grooves featured on sushitech, to the stripped aesthetics as heard on illian tape or even the dubby techno textures from his record last year on greener - needless to say, leonel covers a wide and complete musical range.

>amigo< is the sound of friendly nature – deeply rooted in the music of latin america, and at the same incorporating latest recording technologies, this is the music for both extensive club use and advanced home listening. few minutes into its gentle, shimmering aura – and it becomes clear that this is the final and most perfect record of any latino-techno artist. submerged in warm, mid-tempo percussion arrangements, piers tracks leave a lot of room to breathe and let go of ones imagination – forming a soundtrack to virtually any activity an open mind can undertake.

first of 3 volumes taken from the incredibly rare japan only cd release inner films 70 from 2009. the sketch is simple, modern disco artists take on seminal film scores from the 70s and give them a twist. first we have norweigan disco wizard prins thomass take on the theme from rocky – gonna fly now. all live instrumentation… thisll rock your socks off. on the flip japanese artist foog (mule musiq) gives the theme from close encounters of the third kind a new lick of paint, while fellow japanese sonic adventurer hideo kobayashi (apt. international / bite grooves) turns rhapsody in blue into a tech-y workout.

as anyone will know, dub police is one of the dubstep scenes leading labels, having helped launch the careers of artists like caspa and rusko into the dance music stratosphere. the labels ethos has always been about giving the next generation a step up and the next wave of superstar producers has arrived as the dub police war machine continue to roll ever onward towards world domination. trolley snatcha is the latest artist to receive the dub police stamp of approval with his diverse four-tracker the >one trick pony< ep. proving that he is anything but, trolley turns out a selection of tunes that display a mature and open-minded approach to dubstep. from the ear-battering trolley trademarks that litter >pass me by< and >roccos revenge< to the smoothed out bliss of >always on my mind< and the light techno touches of >we go deep<, this ep will grab the attention of anyone with a keen ear for quality music.
dj support: caspa, rusko, skream, the others and benga.

celebrating its tenth release culprit welcomes another extremely exciting and upwardly mobile young american producer to its fold, m a n i k. born and raised in nyc, and with an accent to match. 2010 has been a break out year for this 24 yr old with his own original material appearing on some of the best underground electronic labels including josh winks ovum, poker flat, four:twenty and chicagos very own fresh meat – run by legendary audio soul project. as a dj and producer its impossible to put m a n i k in any one box. graduating from school in 2007 with a degree in music business, he is not by any means your typical artist. being heavily inspired by a diverse and comprehensive musical background, his style is a unique blend of cutting edge house, futuristic techno and deep, classic old school grooves, along with dark & edgy sounds. from the deep and groovy mclovin you to the old school techno feel of crooklyn this is a great four track ep, that further cements culprits burgeoning status as a cutting edge new label

numan khan from manchester is a new artist for planet mu with an original musical style that mixes dubstep and grime influences with an idiosyncratic take on rhythm to great effect.
this four track ep showcases his styles from the a side with the lush melodic accordian and snes melodies of >race against time<, to the slower, disco influenced >photograph<.
the b side starts with >voodoo<, which combines grimey bass and strings with offbeat drums to odd, driving effect and finishes with >xx< which sounds like a long lost golden era 8-bit grime instrumental but with deft production tweaks and fx that keep it interesting and effective.

detroit is the first single from double night time, the upcoming album from morgan geist and his first solo artist album in over a decade. it features two epic, gorgeous remixes from grammy-nominated remixer carl craig and features vocals from jeremy greenspan of junior boys. after turning the dance music world on its head with his metro area project (alongside collaborator darshan jesrani) and mining rare disco gems with the seminal obscure disco dj mix unclassics (2004), geist decided it was time to turn his attention to a solo album. detroit is the lead song from the album and (as careful listeners may discern) is based loosely on 24k

randalls mac 2 recordings showcases another banging release with the return of fast moving breakthrough artist soul intent. having all ready featured on the label on the 17th release back in 2008 and on the recent justice league ep soul intent returns once again to show us how rolling drum n bass should be done. the a side >rebel music< punches through with razor sharp breaks that bring the track to some seriously sub low basslines. haunting vocals lead through the track introducing some seriously deep fx and strings that make this track one stone cold killer. the flip >cybergroove< makes for a more upbeat affair but certainly shows soul intents versatility as an artist. percussion lead breaks and some haunting strings cut into a bassline that punches its way throughout the track before cutting into a fx lead breakdown. dj support from : randall, ai, klute, doc scott, survival, fabio, crissy criss and eveson radio ? bbc 1xtra and kool fm

hes back with one of his best releases in years: falko brocksieper, artist in residence on treibstoff, labelhead of the freshly resurrected sub static roster, dj and master of small gestures with big impact.

g.i.disco - an 80s history of cold war s hottest music in west-germany berlin local dj heroes kalle kuts and daniel w. best a.k.a. g.i.disco have compiled an excellent 80s soul, funk, r & b and disco selection. it combines representative music of that time with informative liner notes about the german historical background (which also is an important part of 20th century s world history), international artist quotes and worldwide renowned art by berlin based photographer frank thiel to an unique history lesson and listening experience. soul, funk and r&b from the us became a worldwide dance and clubbing movement during the 70s when it turned disco. in the late 70s and 80s more and more new electronic instruments like synthesizers and drum machines were added to the horn riffs and piano licks, bringing the funk back on the dance floor while still leaving it s soul untouched. although a global success story, it played an interesting role especially in the german experience. lp comes in gatefold sleeve.

bosconi strikes back again with another essential release by our outstanding artist mass prod. his unique fingerprint is recognizable thanks to the variety of styles of this new 3 tracker ep. after his succesfull bosconi grooves ep and a marvellous series of bootlegs, mass prod delivers one deep house gem, a dreamy oldschool techno detroit pumper and a twisted jam of clear crossover techno - modern 2step inspiration.

random one is the project of an artist who wishes to remain unknown.. the track was just to good to leave it untouched. especially these two wicked remixes by beat pharmacy and brendon moeller!!!

hypnotic and mesmeric, the haunting music that brazilian artist babe, terror makes belies its origins: originally conceived as a soundtrack to >cold saturday afternoons< at home and long, late night walks around his hometown of sao paulo, his tracks are not so much songs as compelling, unsettling aural landscapes, lush, cinematic stories rendered as washes of electronica, absorbing influences as disparate as 50s pop, tropicalia and cold wave and distilling them to their ghostly essence

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
