!!!!!!strictly limited to 500 copies!!!!!! together with stefan goldmanns debut cd the transitory state, macro releases a strictly limited box set containing five 7? records holding the electroacoustic album voices of the dead. with his releases for innervisions, perlon and macro stefan goldmann has been a key figure at the cutting edge of post minimal techno and the renewal of house music. this album is a distinctively different affair though, reaching far beyond the scope of dancefloor electronics. starting a trilogy of concept albums, stefan goldmann searches for the common root of all music in an electroacoustic setting. from this album turret is already renowned as the intro sequence of richie hawtins groundbreaking de9 transitions mix compilation and was also commissioned by the biblioteque nationale de france for the imeb phonoteque public collection. the artist explains: at first sight we recognise upfront elements like a melody or rhythmic pattern, which we associate with a certain piece or style of music, but there is tension between two notes, hard-to-define background information that at a closer look is found everywhere - within the music of coltrane and stravinsky, death metal and 9th century byzantine chants. if there is anything like a total, secret common ground, than its this information lurking in the background. these are the voices of the dead, the heritage of an endless line of ancestors brought forward through the centuries. i tried to make these elements audible as clearly as possible. really like this weird space ambient one. ive put katorga and izo already into my final scratch computer and have been playing them! (richie hawtin on voices of the dead) record release event at berghain / panorama bar berlin on september 4th, 2008, feat. ricardo villalobos, mika vainio (pan sonic) and ulrich schnauss (tbc).

one sided killer application!! some tracks are so weird, that they can neither be fit into a regular release schedule, nor an appropriate b-side be found. for these black sheep we have decided to create a small niche on connaisseur supérieur. the cnss black edition will sporadically present tracks that are way out of our usual categories… with >numb<, daso finally opens his >panteras< box and again proves his ability to rock reeeally hard. the track actually consists of two seperate tracks whose combination has proven itself during several of dasos live performances. it is the transition between the two tracks that makes the crowd go mad. the clonky intro (already published on ware records as mud max - zampone (maderfotor rmx)) morphs into a giant breakdown with perhaps familiar sounding spoken words before it suddenly reincarnates as a ravey monster from hell! numb shouldnt be taken too seriously and is definitely not for all occasions, but dropped at the right moment, this atom-bomb will cause serve damage on dance- floor-gro

its now pig&dans turn to release the next big thing in the cocoon recordings universe. their electronic house sound – closer to techno than to guy gerbers deep house as regards content – is a perfect image of what is happening on the planet s dancefloors. trippy and driving electronic beats which are never flamboyant are combined with filigree basslines, giant spherical spaces and weird sounds in long sophisticated arrangements: modern minimal house with a good share of techno.

who needs an obtrusively acting kickdrum, when the decent wobbling bassline of breezin does the job just as good. right nobody. or, at least peter grummich (shitkatapult/ spectral/kompakt) doesnt, whose proverbial deepness constantly gets the floors into rapturous body rolling. thus it was just a question of time to welcome this man to karloff, the label for everything thats different. here, all medium dated orientation to felt (rather than experienced) standards is gladly left to other persons of great hope, whilst enjoying the border crossing between dorky monkeyshine and serious spirit of adventure. consequently, quick thinking misbehaviour is also the attitude of the (for formal reasons called) b side, where the horizon gets canvassed for both weird and life affirming sounds, in grasp of the groove. summarizing dance music to breathe deeply.

a fresh new three album track remix ep containing mixes by charles webster, the long term deep house maniac who serves to be an incredibly good choice, will saul, label owner of simple and aus, and a final remix by the man himself phonique. the charles webster remix of worked it out starts off as a nice thudding beat with a crisp minimal click on the offbeat, until an echoing vocal sample swifts in and around starting off the soft but pushing shoulder shifting bass line. smooth piping reverbed blows outline an almost euphoric melody, a very trippy and atmospheric tune with soft cymbals pattering away in the background. soothing sounds and housey chords mix perfectly to make a chilled out dreamy beach tune with a nice progressing beat. a swerling bridge with a 90s casio chord melody steps in and then fades out to the echoes of the vocals drifting silently away into the sun. on b1 its the will saul remix of bang. dun, dun, dun, dun, whoosh! - then a descending high minor melody calling with an electric bass response. squeeky bird sounds and weird reverbed chords makes you feel like you‘re in a crazy dream falling and falling yet the beat keep you stable and composed just about! an out of tune dungeon computer game. strange but true and also very interesting!! and finally, on b2 its the phonique version of space cruise feat. gui borrato. trekking through a spaceship journey tune with mechanical functional sounds releasing here and there. a repetitive two noted melody comes in and fades out, is replaced by an array of spaced out tones, arrivies back again, meets up and resounds into a fanc

rawk ep by frankie is a 5 tracker ep between funky techno & mnimal bleepy house starting with rawk (a1) a crazy techno piece with distorded crispy synth perfect for a peaktime dj set:) …follows valz (a2) in a more bleepy melodic way on the flip 3 minimal house pieces ( b1-divag b2-mash b3-trek ) with a bunch of groovy minimal cut melodies with a freaky weird touch

for a few months already, sub static boss falko brocksieper gradually intensifies his work on the own label again. with driving minimal-beats and melodic instinctive feeling the track >slap< from the >slap/happy<-split-ep with mia evolved into a gladly played hit, and also the following >esque ep< was not just a dayfly in the worlds dj-bags. in this phase the new 2-tracker >blackbox< is now brocksiepers ultimate confession to the dancefloor - fully functional without lacking his organic, trippy branding. the track >blackbox< presents itself as a dark, impulsive techno mover, ripped open again and again by intuitively placed accents, only to remind itself of its own irresistible drive and to cultivate it over the full length. meanwhile the b-side >off the rack< is toying with the idea of chicago house groove, driven by a rebelliously grumbling bootybassline and bleepy excursions into the world of weird soundscapes. on both tracks falko brocksieper celebrates the sign stimuli of techno, delightfully modest and coupled with his signature bubbly, sculptural sound.

this is the third tuning spork blues experiment. inspired by legends like miles davis and modern day techno producers like dandy jack, andreoni is forging wacked out new house sounds, in the true spirit of jazz. this ep is no exception, and it shows why the likes of ricardo villalobos believe that signor andreoni is an amazing musician. to begin the experiment, andreoni jams you deep into space, with some seriously fucked up effects that will have you hiding under your bedclothes. sleepover is perhaps the most techno cut on this release, but the deep haze of dub still remains, over a banging percussive track. on members the melodies are perfect as you expect from signor andreoni, and here the acid line is more prominent in the mix, over deep warbling bass notes. in borderline, nothing is as it seems. melodies fall down cliffs into weird drones, and everything seems a little skewed. this completes a 4 track ep from a unique talent in the world of deep electronic house music, with 4 distinctive colourful tracks that take the genre far away from the middlebrow. make sure you check out our third tuning spork blues experiment, even if you spent most of science class using bunsen burners as water pistols
