from the stamps in his passport it is easy to see that thomas gold is growing as an international success and looks set to go from strength to strength.

secret circuit, having been knighted by tastemaker tim sweeney by releasing their first 12? on his beats in space imprint, seriously run the voodoo down with this intense jam:jungle drums, spellbinding exotic chants once obstinately nesting in your head once you heard them, cheeping, bleeping and tweeting dub noises messing with your sense of orientation, gyrating guitar chords in a my bloody valentine style and between all this wonderful sonic chaos a slightly latin jazz tinged piano breaks its way. a beautiful maze of a track where you easily can get lost in for the rest of this summer. on the flip portugals tiago accentuates the cosmic rock vibe throwing in an aggressive guitar riff that sounds very much like chicagos im a man and prins thomas chucks the looser jam-like first part of the original over board and bundles the psychedelic elements to a breathlessly, constantly intensifying pressure cooker.

the >taste the difference ep< from the excellent slidebar records dishes up something unique where modern techno is concerned. axel sohns the label founder expressed how he wants to mix up the old and new styles of techno and give people back a sound that quite simply makes you not only want to dance and leaves you thinking >how the fuck did they make that sound<

with the very first release on polynom thomas stieler presented an euphonious sounding interpretation of look for the sin, which stems from daniel schwarzs dubby original. the labels second release is coming up now titled my soul. this track has the signature of thomas stieler and shows, what emotion and commitment within arragement means. thereby a warm, phantasic balanced and primarily harmonic and qualitative valuable house track that creates a gracile level of comfort by its deep and artful temper relatio focussing the dance floor as balanced staging area. in the soulmate-remix by less the original is applied by a dynamic portion of drive, which absorbes the aesthetics of my soul and polarises therefore with pressure. doing this less is never loosing the reference to the classic message of the original. hes just additionally seasonning as taste is as well-known varying. strictly ltd, no repress

belltowers is the mind behind the adventurous and eye opening melbourne club night bamboo musik. he has collaborated on several projects for p.a.m., lovefingers and bumrocks. with his debut release on hits he gives a glimpse into the jungle that is his musical mind. with djs such as lovefingers, thomas bullock and canyons playing this, you know this is essential!

thomas hesslers ep is the first player through crepuscular shafts & sonic subways.. beware the trail. first track - lost - cements you into a vacuum of suffocating synths that precede a poundin kick.. you are propelled into a tunnel. the bridge of the track is a course in restraint, giving way to menacing drive & looping side sticks.. siren like washes takes hold, swirling & disorientating the listener. on the flip, - 12 channel madness - best conveys the tone and atmosphere of the release. the murky darkness & pace feels inhuman to the core, but not without infectious rhythm breakdowns with flavors of old & nu skool shuffle timbres. these tracks are also - tools - that do not sacrifice on complexity. the haunting synth washes carry us through but offer no comfort. insanity & intensity reaches catharsis but never overpowers the overall mix. - berlin movement - is the final track on the ep that affirms you are still inside the tunnel. the incisive hook lines impel you to find your way out. the kick is more subdued forcing you to go with the melody until the break & bridge lapses back & the restraint builds to hypnotic frenzy. a dry, howling wind prevails.. filtered and distorted. thomas hessler succeeds in taking us through his tunnel of contradictions: alluring, menacing, emotional yet coldly detached. listen up: you might not escape !

dust off your mirrorballs and set the strobes to max. discodromo brings in the italian barry white from hell, hard ton, for this late anthem of the year… prins thomas on the dub, tensnake on the remix internasjonal hq, september 2011

seit seiner ersten veröffentlichung auf bpc vor drei jahren pflegt thomas einen unverwechselbaren sound, dessen eigenwillige und detailverliebte soundgestaltung den eindruck stetiger bewegung bei gleichzeitigem stillstand vermittelt. die daraus resultierende spannung erweckt eine ebenso unwiderstehliche wie eigenartig anmutende, maschinenhafte lebendigkeit. während thomas sein klangliches markenzeichen auf vergangenen eps und remixen - u.a. für telefon tel aviv und cormac - perfektioniert und etabliert hat, stösst er nun mit jedem track seiner aktuellen ep >neurones< neue türen auf.

brandon johnson, the artist known as tridact, has been putting together his mix of analog electronics and beats for some time. growing up in and around santa barbara, california, he has recently traded the beaches and foothills of southern california to move to the forests and mountains of southern oregon. after participating in various bands and other musical projects in santa barbara, he bought a simple setup consisting of a midi sequencer, a sampler and a couple of vintage synthesizers and began creating his own electronic music. over time he built up a small studio and added some live instrumentation into the mix. in the late 2000s, he began posting some of his tracks online, eventually leading to his first release, >light minute<, on the synchronicity suite compilation on moodgadget records, alongside artists such as wisp and mux mool. the track was later re-released on ghostly internationals nocturnal suite compilation. on tridact’s debut album on prins thomas internasjonal label, he creates an eclectic blend of densely layered, melodic, song-oriented instrumental tracks which combine analog synthesizers, guitars and programmed beats. the album draws from influences ranging from 60s pop to disco, house, techno and breakbeat to make a sound that reflects a distinctly pacific coast experience. from the new tridact album (intcd0002) we have cherry picked these tracks for a exclusive vinyl edition spread over 1 12 inch and a 7 inch.

busier than ever with their cocktail damour label and parties, releases north, west and south we once again bring you the sounds of unicorns and rainbows(doing the disco)with discodromo aka giacomo and giovanni. viaggio verso pegaso in original form and (from the top of the dromos wishlist) a fresh rework by ichisan & nakova backed up by a slightly re-arranged and arp-ed up version of >numero uno< by yours truly. enjoy!

duke & sill are new producers that we will sure hear more of, this offering >rue saint bernard< takes you back in time and brings you to the future, this electro tech soul is a classic in the making, smooth deep and with lots of soul. common people produced by one of our up and coming producers volta cab, the title may take you by surprise >queen of elephants< we wanted to release the original before the remixes so that we hope you would love the song as we do, deep, memorable and great keyboard melodies, the vibe is a feel good one. b/w mark & paul are no strangers to dance music the production team of mark thomas bell & paul birchall has produced for us neuvo ritmo a classic piano groove over a low key aggressive beat, a sure peek time track for those who dare. urban crews >go< was originally presented by chez damier >the gathering< some years back we have decided to add this with the unplugged project to complete this classic theme, inspiring to say the least.

vor vier jahren hatte thomas d noch rückenwind und dieser trieb ihn ganz nach oben in den charts. bei lektionen in demut dürfte der wind indes von vorne kommen, denn 2001 präsentiert sich thomas d sperrig, düster, apokalyptisch und alles andere als massentauglich. schon allein dafür gebührt dem stuttgarter eine menge respekt.

the final chapter has begun, with 5 massive hardtechno tracks from: thomas nordmann, rob stalker, droidbeatz, lost souls and madelephant.

this is the second single release from hardfloors last album >two guys three boxes<. after the highly acclaimed >texas trill remixes< in 2008, e.r.p. (aka convextion aka gerard hanson from dallas/texas) returns withan epic collaboration that gravitates... theres a dynamik bass system remix to round up the package. thomas werner (from munich) had his debut 1998 on international deejay gigolo records. after >dont stop compute< on lone records 2004 and >robotmachine< on monotone he released 2008 his longplayer >the mighty machine< on dominace electricity. latest attention came from his project >heliopause< (a collabo with detroits aux 88) on his new imprint robotmachine records. the vocals on his remix were performed by dj maaco from detroit in effect.

worst friends is ryan cavanagh and john paul jones (no, not that one) from brooklyn. they are also known amongst the beards as tom croose and slow hands. we actually suspect they are pretty good friends … making this sweet sweet music together and all … oh, and they just had a cool record out on oz-label future classic. the music sounds very unlike any short persons playing sports of any kind though slow and low is definitely the tempo. there is the beautiful balearic original, eric duncan gives us a psychedelic ride on the disco carousel and prins thomas channels the song through recently aqquired skills as a choirboy and 4 finger keyboards chords…. oh my….

the w (no relation to the us hotel chain) presents its debut ep on mako called >victim<.
the title track is a slow action blockbuster accompanied by the sexy industrial-type vocals. the track pays the ultimate homage to french electronics of the past couple of years.
also on the ep are the tracks >wrack<, the sinister cut-up distortion number which starts out with an evil hip-hop beat and then turns into a proper techno banger, as well as >arabic< which is full of sitars and psychedelic tension. makos in-house talent polymorphic provides a hot remix.
supported by: brodinski, mixhell, nt89, eriq johnson, evol intent, polymorphic, thomas von party, autodidakt, tony anthun, haezer, volatile, aerotronic ...

rare 80s recording from the glorious mutant disco archives, reportedly recorded on earth and now freshly revamped by a secret detroit-cologne connection to sharp blasted musical encounters of the third kind. not as discoid as you might expect, this strictly limited (150 copies) mystical formula of mutant electronica and twisted technoid funk mixes up todays club floor reality with shock tactics and says fu** off! to any smash hit attitude that covers round the corner. the >twilite clone< is 100% pure catchy if derived electronic street funk that hits the roads for sure uncontrollably strange and highly danceable on the cutting edge of techno, house and dubstep.

dj ageishi is like the sensei of japanese djs: a true legend and active since 1973, he can scoop from an incredible musical wealth of experiences yet has his ear to whats happening in the now. this mixture of knowledge and curiosity for the new also characterizes his debut on internasjonal with colleague dj akin, who left his mark outside of japan with a remix for brennan greens >900lb man<. rattling drum breaks from the funk end of disco are the backbone for a soprano sax lick slightly remiscent of coltranes >a love supreme< that floats on top of noise distortet sheets of synth before the >rain parade< makes a total turn ending with a comforting lullaby like rhodes melody. prins thomas boils it all down to a simmering slow dub remake, while mark e lets all the single ingredients patiently lets every ingredient from the original develop its full-bodied flavour before kicking up the heat.

prins thomas spreads proper, earthy dub house vibes in a good old bobby konders tradition with >lang tung ting<. a hard driving jacker with dry, punching drums and grumbling, low-frequency acidic sounds not modulated by an 808 synth but from warped cello and bassoon lines. an ode to the timeless magic of beats and bass. much less sparse >ny maskin< on the flip is a dizzying disco/ rock jam backed by african derived beats and a gyranting, buoyant guitar lick . prins thomas brilliantly proves himself a jack of many trades again

massive double header from german uber producer thomas schumacher. pressed on limited edition solid yellow vinyl!

thomas fehlmann is integral to kompakt and the labels history. his solo releases and collaborative work with alex patterson as the orb have been some of the kompakts most revered and cherished tunes. following the success of his 2010 full length gute luft (a collection of re-edited versions from his score to the hit documentary 24hr berlin), we start 2011 off with titan one / dfm. on october 16, 2010 thomas fehlmann performed in montreal, canada at the historic molson coors brewery building together with members of the montreal symphony orchestra (osm). together they sought to recreate a version of gustav mahlers classic symphony no. 1 (titan). kompakt is proud to now offer a new recording inspired by that epic concert of symphonic and electronic with a new recording inspired from that performance – renamed as titan one. the hum of cellos and strings conjoin fehlmanns electronics – held together by the sublime, unobtrusive thump of a bass drum. titan one flows with a beauty and edacity that is rarely heard in both classical and electronic music form. the b-side features a new recording inspired from the second piece of the performance - a new version of thomas fehlmanns du fehlst mir from his 2006 kompakt full length visions of blah. reanimated as dfm, the piece again conjoins the different musical worlds in a way we have never heard to such a high standard. a much more upbeat affair than to titan one (of course) bass and keyboards mingle with the symphony the playfulness of the original song rolls throughout dfm. whether as palais schaumberg, the orb, or 3mb (to name only a few alias). fehlmann may have 3 decades of professional recordings under his belt but he continues to prove to the world as being one of the most fascinating and creatively open musicians in his field. this release clearly proves his story is far from over.
