this is the debut release from aussie youngster, charlie why. a superb dark druggy disco 4 tracker. >i am deliciously wired< sounds like an acid trip spaceship mixed with freaked out vocals drenched with mechanical rhythms and industrial squeaks. >biscuits< enters you into a world of space and depth, looping you into a wonking and rolling state of mind. when it is reaching the early hours of the morning >nose< warms you with deep seductive elements with sexual groove. like a girls naked body, >mountain body< is smooth and curvaceous with lush piano chords, rolling bass, and vibrant melody.

aconito records newest acquistion, alessio pili, has joined forces with nax-acid for his debut release: dgt is shit, a provocatory title for an ep dedicated to a world that is slowly losing the inner soul of the cult of vinyl and djing. the two versions differ in their emphasis on the rhythms: driving and smooth in the edit version, harder and more incisive in the original to help preserve the atmospheric flavour.

recently, he sent us a bunch of his own unreleased solo projects and we are very excited about them. you will find in this package 3 new tracks in his distinctly recognizable sound that blurs the borders of funk, disco and acid-house.

deep down from the heart of motorcity stuttgart comes a fresh new label from the founder of the well known techno imprints neue heimat & mutter rec. - daniel benavente and oliver hauf - coworker of the vinyl store humpty records stuttgart. the born baby is called salon rosi - conform with the events were celebrating in club rocker33 since years. the first release is starting off with newcomer konstantin sibold who brings us his neuland e.p. - containing two slices of pure technosoul with very different characters. the a-side >apart< is a mixture of traditional detroit techno combined with modern tech-house rhythms which builts and builts, ending in an climax of pure euphorism. b-side >gestade< is a well funky and deep explosion with a subtle throbbing acid-bassline vibe, well-flavoured with pieces of bitter sweet harmonies.

midnight marauder, is rolling techno fuzzing with a teetering bass line, reggae sirens and jamaican patois adlibs. typical of the two involved, its decidedly grey area - impossible to categorise if you tried. one thing about this track is certain though – its primed for peak time on the dancefloor, with swung drum rhythms and a snaking acid line that wont quit.

boy we couldnt resist hooking up with one of the youngest and brightest proteges in the west-coast undergound to slap out some crazy remixes of the bsu ep for yall. who is he? why, a made up sound ofcourse, or 2562 for short. steamrolling his way onto the scene in 2007, 2562 has been a mainstay from the get go, with amazing production skills and a keen ear for what rocks the house. in a very short time the 2562 name became almost synonimous for dubstep. but luckily for us theres the made up sound guise to provide us with a more mutant hybrid of slamming jak-step (and remember where you read that first). so take your pick, heres one for the heads and one for the bodies.

thirtyonetwenty is the international dialling code to reach amsterdam. its also the name of amsterdams hot label run by sandy huner, who co-founded techno imprint 100% pure in 1992.

this time he is back with two grooving funky (tech) housetracks >all i want< and >crash love<. amsterdams own tom ruijg (bangbang!) finishes it off with a deeper house-take of >all want<.

some ideas are just so good, they deserve a second chapter. like christian prommers drumlesson vol. 1 album, released in 2008, which featured instrumental jazz versions of legendary techno and electronic tracks including derrick mays strings of life, kraftwerks trans europe express and josh winks higher state of consciousness. critics and audiences were united in their positive reactions to the album.

ferrispark records has always been known for its devotion to unique and soulful releases heavily influenced by the deep sounds of detroit and chicago. carrying on in the same manner is scott fergusons, disco and deep house infused, >midwest born & bred ep<. the first mix of >keep on lovin me< mixes dirty detroit rawness with chi-town acid to get dance-floors stirring while the second mix is more reminiscent of mid-90s nyc and chicago house. in the late hours of the night, flip the record over for the seriously grooving, slow, deep, and druggy, >staggerin & stumblin<.

for our fourth release we decided to take one of our favourite tracks from the discos de lata catalogue and give it to some friends to remix it. the tracks is sour mood by xpansul and damian schwartz.on side a, the capo of the new sond from chicago, billy dalessandro adds all that funk he has, with that remarkable chicago flavour and a subtle touch of acid. a solid track that keeps the hypnotic vibe of the original adding a tension that takes it to peak time territory. on side b, spanish techno master, alex under, joins forces with super talented argentinean producer leo gruenbaum, aka gruenbox, to deliver a piece of strong funky techno. the deep bass and groovy percussions are the foundations for a progression of hypnotic elements that make this a track a sure killer. we love techno!

marius is 1/2 of ytre rymden dansskola and is currently preparing his first solo album with prins thomas in his k16 studios. as a little taste of things to come heres a couple of sun soaked little ditties and a big and loud moroder meets acid rework from blackbelt andersen.

this release presents us three luscious tracks from our meandering-funk supergroup pikaya. it s their second record for the meander imprint and it s pretty a remarkable one. after their last output with the name jive and a recent split release for grubenstrasse zuerich, now they strongly back with crafty signals & grooves, luscious melodies, warm but clear rhythmic beats finalised with a solid dash of acid.

these two guys need no introduction we re sure.. between them the music these guys put out there, is some of the finest house beats around.. now combined the production level on this beauty takes things to another level.. swinging hooks, driving beats & acid 303 lines. a perfect blend of prog / tech & house.. call it what you will.. this simply rocks! alex & filip takes things deeper and more twised , while steve haines goes down the more melodic route. two great remixes to top of the release.

this music works by releasing carbon dioxide gas into a batter through an acid-base reaction, causing bubbles in the wet mixture to expand and thus leavening the mixture. it is used where the batter lacks the elastic structure to hold gas bubbles for more than a few minutes. because carbon dioxide is released at a faster rate through the acid-base reaction than through fermentation, music made by chemical leavening is called >quick compositions. the tracks are made up of an alkaline component, one or more acid salts, and an inert starch (cornstarch in most cases, though potato starch is also used).

our latest release comes from the raising talent and fellow swede, axel boman. axel released ourvisions best selling track >arcimboldo< in 2008, which got hammered by many big djs around the world. after this release a package of >arcimboldo< will come with remixes of the track from some of our favourite producers. first out on the a side is >brass fanatic<, a simple, raw and groovy track with a catchy vocal and acid bass. starting with >sell your soul< on the b side, axel squeezes in a looped bass and phased guitars which brings a nice summer feling to the track. last on the ep is >welcome to bomtown<, a detroit house track with looped percussion, soul vocal samples and hypnotic synths.

timeless remixes from 3 of the biggest ever acts in dance music on one record - massive!!

mutant clan is the mysterious alter-ego of long serving electronic music veterans timo maas and santos. after a small handful of heavyweight eps on labels like connaisseur and sci + tec, its time for this undoubtedly talented duo to unleash their next batch of weapons on figure spc. the considerably epic we are fuses classic elements of tweaking acid, bright jacking drums and an extended, open-ended arrangement that floats atop a choir of celestial rave angels…! built for cavernous techno meccas, or up-close and personal basement sweat-boxes alike. in comparison the deephouse tones of i feel the sense retain the excellent production values that we ve come to expect from this pair, and take a trip down a dubbed and shuffling melodious path. uplifting, summery and full of clever, climbing effects its a lighter , yet by no means lesser, trip!

story continues its immaculate run of bottom-heavy deephouse with 4 special treats from this british underground figure that make an earthquake like introduction to the scene with 3 anonymous 12inches only that are already sought after and destined to become collectors items. an acid house veteran that followed the whole uk rave progression to harder techno, he harks back to his early influences with his productions by building his dense, jacking slo-mo house grooves around hip-hop and soul samples. cuts like >the rub< or >dh13< and take their time to slowly sneak-up on you casting a bigger and bigger shadow until you are totally immersed in the smoky, dub-filled atmosphere that has a similar feel to the psychedelic soul of motowns norman whitfild or the rzas mystic hip-hop soundscapes. >whobadu< trades for 4/4 pattern for a looser, handclapping 80s funk groove that should cross-over into the box of every more discerned hip-hop dj, while >olufeme< is a stripped down, fela style afro groover with mighty dubbed-out horn loops. four tracks that will keep all you dancers, booty shakers and headnodders happy for a long time

another huge prime time techno ep !! 4 track with full of serious techno

spooky chicago and acid drive phreakin trax

hard ton is the 21st century disco queen: falsetto vox mixed with hard jacking analogue chicago house and giorgio moroder basslines. comes with a acid house version of madonnas music, berghain hit jealousy and a remix by germanys jackmaster no. 1 snuff crew.

4 track ep from chicagos mathematics label run by hieroglyphic being (aka jamal moss) featuring artists from around the world:le matin, kelton prima, takeshi kouzuki, and stabil elite. a mix of industrial, r&b dance, acid house and italo disco.

encer kincy was giant in chicagos house music revival - part of the second wave of younger djs and producers that took the music of the early 1980s, rubbed it up and dropped it in places like 500 west cermak, medusa’s and the vault. a lot of people who are now superstars of the scene - mark farina, sneak, derrick carter, and dozens of others - were a part of that movement, too. spencer released a number of tracks on relief, planet e, cajual, peace frog - labels representing the classics of that era - and he usually recorded under the name gemini. as a dj, he operated in his own space - i’m sure he could play for a room, and sometimes did, but the unrestrained madness of a spencer kincy dj set had to be heard over several hours to appreciate. he could blend a sleazy disco track into hard acid, downtempo into a punishing armani track, jazz into detroit techno and so on. it wasn’t technically brilliant or tricky, but the selection was exquisite. a number of figures from his era still list him as an influence. his productions, viewed as a whole, are so much like his sets: going softer than many dared to go, and going much harder than just about any dared to go. simple jack tracks! respected by the standards of the industry of the time, and you certainly couldn’t go anywhere in chicago without hearing derrick, sneak, mark, lego, gene, jevon, diz, johnny or the other djs beating them. and so many of them have a timelessness - a little piece of eternity stuck like some bit of wax between the grooves

the bold and futuristic year of 2010 sees the release of >werkschau<, an unmixed compilation that gathers together a hand picked selection of the producers favourite cuts. the music stands for all that he loves, and what he loves he puts on show! summing up the landsky sound, and looking back over the years one cant help but feel a deep underlying quality emanate from the music. like subtle, mature flavours running through a well-prepared banquet. this special ep, capturing three choice tracks from those on offer on the compilaiton, includes some of our favourite landsky material, re-visited. firstly the seminal >1000 miles< is re-interpreted and brought up-to date, with landskys >2000 miles<. a strong driving powerhouse of reduced acid signals and hypnotic synth phrases, its the sound of martin landsky, future, present and past. a real deep running story of a track, >naked< is rich with thick bass and phasing, tripping chords, running percussion and growing tension that never ends. fitting to any occassion, the track was originally released on landskys own intim label and sounds as fresh now as the day it was released. tying things up the taught, tense and grooving tones of >monitor one< sail through. this futuristic house cut revolves around a staccato bass hook that drips with funk, echoing of landskys dj history that began before house was ever invented!

already supported by etienne de crecy, crystal method, acid jacks and more!
this vinyl comes in special limited white edition. needless to say, all tracks come in ipunks accustomed banging electro style!

transparent vinyl limited to 100 copies with handmade details.
oscar mulero and svreca walk the path of hi-tech experimentation and get remixed by quench, disinvectant, hadamard and acid future overdose.

after its first release rework closer moved bass cadets and techno heads alike, the label returns with some fearless offbeat pressure in round two. a side sun touch aint about cherishing the first sunshine in springtime – rather like a fierce ray of light hitting you right in the eye, darkening everything for a moment. killer broken beats, rumbling subs and a gloomy atmosphere run the program until a nasty acid line takes over and funks things up even further. drain on the flip continues where closer (ams01) left off, the warm synth blanket this time appearing as a melancholic drone sequence over beats syncopated to the max. bonus cut untitled is the 2006 original of a tune bass music heads will be familiar with by now... beats from the machines, heartfelt lfo’d chords and arpeggiated bleeps round off this uncompromising twelve.

jacksonville (leeds u.k) releases his first original track for thug records. the release also coincides with the launch of our vinyl arm and marks a new direction and ethos for thug records. after being heavily inspired by a 4 month trip to berlin in late 2009 and by a number of fantastic labels and artists in the u.s.a, we have decided to make shift back to a more organic platform. to quote levon vincent, the medium is the message. now for the tracks, dusk is a deep, bumping techno gem that grinds and pulsates with smatterings of acid, drum hooks and creepy vocal stabs.
on the remix front, one of our all time favourite producers, abe duque (nyc), does what he does best and turns out an incredibly twisted dance floor beast. both tracks here bring the noise. hope you enjoy...

this new ep retraces ceephaxs history and its very own personal and genious way to appropriate a musical style with always such generosity. from the dubstep of souley man, the sunset dancefloor hit bacardi breezer, the drum n bass track dona hue, the break bit track turrican 2 to ticker train, an acid bomb that defies anybody to not let themselves get carried away by these wild bpm.

after their great debut >motzbaz / indeed< on afao recordings and the following 12inches >hello kool nice< and <langenthal ep< on quintessentials recordings, which found its way into the bags and charts of djs like quarion, laurent garnier, jimpster and many more, jagged strikes back with a 12 on bonzzaj recordings. this single also contains a hot remix by the dutch multi-talented man aardvarck, one half of the rednose district. jaggeds productions are restrained and minimal in the right way - they doesnt let things get overloaded. they focuses mainly on straight beats and functional house music but always with the right ingredient of soul and rawness. the title track ten to twelve is a heavy cut with a lot of disco influences, funky basslines, cool house-grooves and surprising changes all over the track. the remix of ten to twelve comes from aardvarck, who releases on rushhour, kindred spirits and delsin. he transformed the original in an broken beat stomper, which sounds like it emerged straight out of londons co-op. the b-side contains chicago, a deep house number with forward going percussions, warm strings, oldscool-house-vocals and a slight acid flavour and last but not least the track an orange drippin, which takes you with its deep synth, percussions, basslines, bells and things in the deeper shades of…jagged nation. hot shit gesundheit

boys noize new album >power< has been released in october 2009 and already got massiv support across all genres. >transmission< is the 2nd single out of >power<, its static unheared synth sound, its robot voices (you are neutron because lazor transmission) on a breakbeat gives you a feeling of josh winks early hit >higher states of conciousness< going to bed with kraftwerks sound aesthetic and robots on a 2010 afterparty. this release includes a dream package of remixes and also a video to follow shortly after. well respected electronica producer mr. oizo (ed banger) does what he can do best by twisting the original to a serious moment of a firecracker, tiga takes the main idea of the original song and turns it into the perfect 4/4 banger, bnr s super talented djedjotroic delivers 2 remixes: 1 acid drivin shot and a big room techno dub for friends of len faki or dubfire. with the untold remix (hessle audio) you probably get dubstep s most interesting producer bringing an epic dubstep version. last but not least you get a real deep techno remix by the techno master himself: james ruskin (bluefin rec). resident dj of berlin s berghain delivers a top of his class techno mix.
