classic sounding track by two long going and respected techno heads.. fabrice lig and titonton. these guys take it back to the early nineties when techno was still fresh and new... the days that titonton and dan curtin were debuting with their sophisticated techno sound. raw funky 909 percussion, bleepy analogue synths and great warm string sounds and beautiful melodies. purist techno tracks that never go out of style and reminds the old blokes why we loved techno in that period so much. and it shows the young cats that there is more then the standard dj tool techno! beanfield is on remix duty here... and he delivers an updated modern dancefloor friendly house version with a great string section that reminds a bit of knights of the jaguar and a killer bassline after the break. check!

four track ep by label owner aroy dee.
the first track >once u loved<, is warm and emotional, with slowly evolving strings topped with mysterious whispering vocals, reminding to older blake baxter material. 2nd track, >tears< is a fierce and sexy chicago-house influenced dancetrack, with a solid baseline, steady beats and lush keys.<br 7>first track on the b-side is >lift me high<, a downtempo dreamlike analogue house classic with haunting strings and vocals of miss salvador, merging larry heard and g-strings with an italo-disco kind of atmosphere. last on this ep is >soul spark<, an atmospheric techno track with the raw energy of early relief-releases and the psychedelia of dance mania.

classic chicago vocal house

support from the worlds finest djs and artists such as pier bucci, argenis brito, butane, maetrik, gregory shiff, ambivalent, and id, barem, and noah pred.
this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

big with rustie, major lazer, boys noize, m.a.n.d.y.,apparat, si begg, monolake, coldcut,.. facing crisis and tormented by the sorrows of monetary depletion there was only one solution for the house of modeselektor. all capital must go! and fast! property funds crashing like windows 2000, investing in gold too 80s and the rights to jackos portfolio too expensive. only one answer remained: art. versed on the international art trade floor it was easy for the modeselektor boys to win over two sought-after art dealers, to seal the deal and to go on a shopping spree. art & cash is the shocking behind the scenes documentary of that german art campaign. in the process a scandal was revealed that is shaking experts to this day. for years and under the watchful eyes of millions did the fantastic nobodies - exceptionally gifted art counterfeiters and weirdos from brooklyn - manage to sell themselves as renowned works of art, thus creating inexplicable damage—

slamming peak time techno tracks, no more words necessary !!

the word >detroit< is one that is used far too often in todayÆs techno realm. it seems that as soon as someone puts a pad over the top of a 4x4 kick drum they have the right to file their music under >detroit techno<. soà when tracks like this arrive in your inbox with no accompanying information, well itÆs a breath of fresh air to say the least. these four tracks by new boy mick welch truly capture the essence of detroit, bringing to mind the classic works by derrick may, kenny larkin and even hints of influences a little closer to home, b12, redcell, kirk degiorgio and the rest of the applied rhythmic technology crew for example. highly recommended.
