gorgeous sound, sweaty beats and a dream of a female voice! no, i am not talking about the new jenna jameson movie, but from the 1st release from the djs jay pariz & meave de tria. dancing with tears in my eyes, a hit from the 80ies by ultravox, and converted it into a danceable club dream from vinyl. youthfully cheeky they play with the a bit long in the tooth gotten song and planted on a living cell therapy which is listenable. incl. 3 remixes by niels van gogh, doc phatt and spacekid

einmaleins welcomes berovic & leicher. nedzad berovic and frank leicher are based in frankfurt. you already known them from their releases on >international freakshow< and >level non zero< (together with chris wood as >fresh fried< ). now they bring us three tight tracks, fingerlicking thick cut edgy minimal funk with a spice of africa flavoured and subtle thrown in sexy groove. both sides are incredibly well produced and peak time indeed. a quality package for heavy rotation and all kinds of floors. supported by blody mary, dario zenker, mark henning and mike shannon

the slovakian techno label numb showcases another great release by the dutch rising stars museum. this is another fine colabboration by anton pieete (also responsibles for the highly anticipated numb 011) and jeroen liebregts known from his other projects called radial and his own labels audio assault and dinner to name just a few. this release is just what you would expect from these serious beats lovers! clean as yo mommy s kitchen and sharp as a razor! watch these guys grow and grow and feel why they are so big right now and got signed on major labels like drumcode!

support by: luciano, matt star, pascal feos, alex bau, syntec!!! first release on momentum from a russian artist, and indeed a really talented one. his three tracks appear really fresh, especially cy30 with its acrobatic vocalizing could partly remind on some previous raudive-releases, but more minimal orientated they appear to open up a new definition of how minimal techno can be produced without becoming boring

an instant dancefloor smash whenever its played, intense support from dave spoon, tocadisco, laidback luke, steve angello & dirty south. a firecracker of an ep that does extreme damage!next up on toolroom trax, our very own owen ingram teams up with danish house he ro rune rk to bring you a scorching anthemic house bomb entitled >life<. the two producers have never actually met in person. owen fired over some parts to rune via aols aim instant messenger, rune arranged them, and then they went back an d forth until they came up with >life<! a classic-sounding track that conveys steamy summer nights dancing under the mediterranean stars, >life< has enjoyed massive support

konk is the eagerly awaited new album from the kooks. it is their second album, and the follow up to their hugely successful 2006 debut inside in/inside out which sold some two million copies worldwide and spawned the massive singles she moves in her own way, you dont love me, sofa song, eddies gun, ooh la and na ve. konk was recorded over a six week period at the tail end of 2007 in ray davieskonk studios in north london, plus a week at los angelessound factory. the sessions once again united the group with esteemed producer tony hoffer (beck / air/the fratellis). konk features 12 tracks. theres gap which is classic kooks, and shine on which finds luke exploring hitherto unchartered lyrical territory over the loveliest of melodies. its destined to become another lynchpin in the kooks live set. first single always where i need to be is a tumbling rocker with a do do do, do do do do refrain that might just be the catchiest thing they ve ever done. sway and mr maker are other album highlights.

hey friends, this is going to be a great ride today! slick, red, rocking and housy. today in the box with catz n dogz aka 3 channels, grzegorz demiianczuk and wojciech tranaczuk. and up to now, everybody was deeply impressed by their speedy, red, cool vehicle: from claude van stroke, john tejada or wighnomy brothers. or us! they are really hot and can already choose their favourite international racetrack. but here and now comes a very special floor shaker: outstanding when it comes to style, appearance and acceleration. and extremely funky even at lower speed torque. both pilots promise loads of details, tension and elegance - together with their will to win after a long and exciting home stretch. this is motor sport from another star and should be honoured like it. and it will be honoured, no doubt! sway the banner! award ceremony! champagne, and thats it

already supported by steve lawler, michael mayer, marc romboy, ivan smagghe, fafa monteco, nudisco... belgium dj fred hush and fellow music partner noseda are known for their releases on rush hour ltd and kill the dj. they debut on hell yeah with a peaktime sureplayer called >whitenoise< and a piece of moody electronic music, a >classic< in the makin indeed. a truly dynamic techno package as it should be done, no reason to describe it more, just play it and watch your dancefloor go bananas at the breakdowns..

when sonic pioneers collide in an ideal setup within club culture dynamics, they do not just produce dents on the floor, but in fact amalgamate in a pliant way to stretch the space-time continuum by means of enrichment through sound. and knowledge. were we have such a mighty hook up: gerald simpson is known to be an innovator of electronic dance music. starting with manchester-based 808 state in 1988, sparking the fire of voodoo ray acid soul, measuring the black secret technology jungle, finding the essence of song based dance via new york city, he continues pushing evolutionary music processes since taking up residence in berlin. now he joins forces with the perlon visionary community of unfathomable deepness and unrivalled sound design always leaving room for novelty, scientific curiosity and blasting mind frames

nice price deal !!! big with mickey moonlight, tensnake, cosmo vitelli, todd terje, joakim and the permanent vacation crew. they ve been called one of dance music s best kept secrets jackpot. in 1983 italian experimental sound artist marco donatello and swedish synth pioneer gleen asp made recordings together. their ambition was to put sound to an art-project but the result was an erotic cocktail of italo-esque melodies, ebm rhythms, and filmic arpeggios. legend has it the music was made as an excuse to press records off a narcotic solution in order to smuggle drugs, and that a mishap during the operation explains why we haven t heard these tracks before. in any case, this is an exclusive document of unknown yet truly unique swedish dance music.

bobby & klein are back with their second ep, >jackzilla<,!!! they return to guesthouse for this second ofering, which shows the evolution of the french duo, heading this time for more synthetic sounds, while retaining their inner jack! the first track of the ep, >naughty<, will have you sing >do you feel naughty< for a long time with its infectious vocal hook and its peak time breakdown. the second track, >i want sax< is based on a rhodes loop and rolling bassline and features the talent of mr fm umlaut on synthesizers. last but not least, the title track, >jackzilla<, closes the ep with its peak time party horns sample and enormous bassline, ready to explode your bass cabinets all over the world. another guesthouse jacker!

>work in progress< was born in december 2005 by two french dj, kony & maxime dangles. the first one hold a record store, the other discovers the mix universe. their musical relationship and friendship never stops evolving since they met in 1999. 10 years are separating the duet members but it’s never been a problem, each member is influencing the other melting minimal music with new wave inspirations. after maxime dangles released solo a few ep on kompakt, paso or scandium, here’s a release under >work in progress< pseudo on the french logarythm..

les petits pilous are back with 3 new tracks on bnr. after remixes for justice and chromeo the 2 wild boys continue their peak time techno. >wake up< is a sure shot to destroy any club or festival with a long break that drive people mad even if they hear it for the first time. on the flip you get the hammer >housi< and the acid influenced raver >going techno< bam!

photonz are marco rodrigues and miguel evaristo from lisbon, portugal that is the home to fado (meaning destiny or fate in latin), a melancholy and penetrant style of music that needs little interpretation. they have already released a string of singles on d-i-r-t-y, dissident and living records to great critical acclaim. we are very proud to release their next single. having gained great support from guillaume sorge and erol alkin, this single is set to thrill dancefloors worldwide!

strike #3 from spanish label xpansive - they keep techno under pressure!

marc mac and his visioneers band decided to cover this classic rather than remix it, and they lovingly recreated every part including the vocals, giving us 2 blissful versions

big ibiza & love parade hit ! played by: ricardo villalobos, vera (maratrax,oslo), dorian paic (robert johnson, dc10), reboot (cadenza), sascha dive (deep vibes)… la peña is the new label by einzelkind. beware when they come with no underwear…

having established a cult following on the strength of their previous eps the coyote crew have crafted another blissfully laid back ep of the highest quality. chugging and dreamy in equal measure, these four cuts range from spoken word narrated grooves, to dubbed out acoustic guitar led genius. they have even drafted in the dub disco maestro that is rune lindbaek to supply an extra special remix! coyote back doing what they do best. is it balearic? oh yeah!

after the phenomenal success of their 1st release, division recordings has been established as a label providing new innovative sounds with boundless potential in every genre. now noisia are ready to present the next installment of division: seven stitches is a slice of electric heaven, a veritable fighter pilot performing synth acrobatics & bound to hit your g force! an appropriate follow up to the bending craziness of yellow brick, seven stiches was initially commissioned for wipeout pulse (psp). sony loved it so much they decided to also feature it in the wipeout hd (ps3) game too. a tune diverse enough to satisfy on every level, throw it down amongst friends or up on stage but be sure to make it loud!

broadcasting through various channels, let it be their label sonar kollektiv, their relentless dj-tours around the globe or their highly acclaimed radio show, the six berlin based boys better known as jazzanova transmit the message in whatever format. as teaser for the upcoming longplayer, which reflects one of their diverse club sets, as well as the broad musical spectrum presented in their bi-weekly radioshow they deliver two massive club tunes from innervisions stars Âme and japanese newcomers agora rhythm...special restock !!!

infadels are back. two years on from their acclaimed debut, we are not the infadels, new album, universe in reverse is the bands youth produced crossover masterpiece. bursting with energy, huge guitar melodies and hooks in abundance, it is, in short, the definitive infadels record and potentially a huge crossover album. universe in reverse is an album packed with soon to be hits reflecting the bands heady year and a half on tour, where they were able to discover the sounds that they would grow to become a re imagining of the new infadels sound. produced by youth (verve, guns n roses), and perfected by the mixing skills of ever dependable cenzo townshend (bloc party, pigeon detectives, reverend and the makers), this is a dynamic ten tracker of lyrically insightful everyman pop.

morris audio 62 is a joint venture from two of the most outstanding greek producers (em well, living both in berlin now….): ekkohaus and gummihz! and they present what they do best: ekkohaus (hot with his cargo edition release) gives us two great summer tunes, house stylee, with fat bouncing basslines. and gummihz (big with his releases on mobilee) turns >our thing< into a minimal dancefloor smasher – reduced to the max, but adding highlights where necessary, this track will be

the boys from beard science are back with effect and once again they do not disappoint with a great selection of the finest re edits around! a1 is a cosmic slo motion disco vibe, very 80s with a great clavinet and drugged out synth sweeps – pass the ketamine love. a2 also on a slo motion balearic/baldelli tip. nice live bass and tribal drums. it sounds a bit like the theme tune to the kio ora advert – very catchy and extremely thirst quenching! b1 is a driving uptempo bassline driven disco track with phasing drums and italian vocal - very catchy again. b2 digital percussion, rocking 80s snares and a weaving and working bassline with an old...

children is a riff appreciation society formulated to combat boredom. with axes and clubs aided only by high power amplification, they aim to honor the torch lit by our metalien forefathers. brothers and sisters, please join them in their humble quest.

played by mathias kaden, someone else, tim green, franco cinelli, katzo and many more. minimood redefines minimal once again, this time bringing you yet another unbelievable talent from the bubbling underground tokyo scene: shu okuyama. the weiter ep demonstrates how they do geometry in a beautiful and fresh non euclidean fashion deep down in shibuya! note how the extravagant a1 punkt represents an irresistible example of the hypnotic hip twitching water crunk sound which is fast becoming one of minimoods trademarks. moreover, b1 strich is simply genius as shu completely axes conventionalism, swinging his sword with samurai abandon through jazzy keys, percussive hits, vocal snippets, analog blurps,..., and then re assembles them all to devastating contemporary effect! one ticket to tokyo, please!

legendz records is the normal follow up of famous legendz parties which started in belgium three years ago . for their first release, they decided to invite two belgian producers from two different musical horizons and see how it goes . kolombo is famous for his electro house style with releases on king kong, turbo, systematic, karate, his own vice versa or loulou records. sierra sam is more into the minimal world with music on trapez ltd., einmaleins, his own toys for boys and soon contexterrior the two friends decided to mix their skills on three tracks: alive is based on a fat synth line and rolling bleepy percussions, articulated around a vocal sample. extra voices takes another vocal sample , but adds it a more acid synth line and some more percussive drum soundsscreaming lord is a more aggressive track with more noises and fast percussion lines..

its a quite interesting fact that jean vanesse and tom sohet aka spirit catcher are on the one hand based in belgium but on the other hand they have put out their records on only international labels like 20:20 vision, winding road and mood music. maybe a good questions to ask for. anyway, systematic is more than happy and proud to present you the 45th release produced by the two fellows from brussels. the ep contains three absolutely high quality tracks so that its quite impossible to choose the a side and the b side. so its up to you to decide.

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

on the second release of this sublabel of marco remus are three tracks of mignon at, a sideproject of big name alex kvitta together with his longterm friend thommy fusion. after having played live together allover europe in countries like germany, poland, slovenia, austria, bulgaria and the netherlands without having released a single record, it was time for a change! this ep features 3 totally different sounding club tracks on which they show you how diversified their livesets are.

first 500 limited edition on clear vinyl! manmadescience turns back on philpot and joins our coloured vinyl series with their akiele-ep. just right in time to celebrate the 30th release! the main title >akiele< is a awesome deep and hypnotic piece of house with that special manmadescience signature… >they like to watch< and >meandyou< are short edits (sorry, diggers: there will be no longer versions) and the soulphiction dub in the end rounds off the record: a massive dub track made to rise on the floor

another wicked hard techno slammer from the rework boys!! these germans sure know how to rock and they proof it every time. this time a pulsating beat transforms into an evil vocal anthem!

another wicked hard techno slammer from the rework boys!! these germans sure know how to rock and they proof it every time. this time a pulsating beat transforms into an evil vocal anthem! andy lee, known from his releases onfrisbee tracks, i220 and his own label, register and also well known for his very long dj-sets especially in frankfurt at the u60311, but also in the rest of europe, is the new artist on byron bogues s label, eruptive records. 2 technoid trax with sophisticated arrangements and very good designed sounds, made for the peak time. byron bogues s remix is a percussive rocket. a very nice mixing-tool for all style of techno and house

apologist hails from the holy land of cosmic disco italy. behind the name apologist (wave music) we find the producers brusca and sam perez. they started to gain recognition with their dark, progressive thriller of a cut called ghouls & ghosts on h plus in 2004, the duo has released productions and remixes together, separately and under different names on quality labels like yoshitoshi, baroque, swift, restart, wave music, but they dont limit themselves to sinister grooves of that nature. while their style is always epic with sweeping synthesizers and digital drama and effects, apologist is showing their sensual, dubbier side with this exlusive release of pycairo records.

hot on the heels of the bestselling second edition in the limited series, the ppf boys dropped off this outstanding third ep in the sample pleasures trilogy!!! as always, they expertly reference classic, though less well known underground gems from the last days of disco to early forays into proto house. heavily influenced by the fertile early 80s period, when european disco and boogie sounds took us in a more electronic direction, and the kind of boundary pushing, energetic, funked up soundtrack ron hardy laid down in the music box, the popular peoples front have established a formidable reputation for making stand out modern club cuts...

they are back with their new smasher gang bang includes an amazing muzzaik remix

as the 3rd single of j.s.s. s monthly release project, this includes a remix by carl craig !!! kiyotaka fukagawa aka calm (aka organlanguage and k.f., and the owner of music conception label) and kazuyuki shimizu aka herbest moon (also known as the rapper of tha blue herb and the owner of that label, the blue herb rec), combine here as the duo japanese synchro system and started their new project. this time an original song features the rap by kazuyuki shimizu under the name of ill-bosstino (you may never have heard of japanese rap, though) and that remix by carl craig, who has been dropping amazing songs in the market. speaking of remix, we can say it uses the voice of ill-bosstino rather than making his words stand out. either of them are mighty song. and an insert with japanese rap and english translation will be included, so it makes it possible for the people all over the world to feel that everyone lives on the earth are thinking about the same things when they are on dance floor, with enjoying crazy dance music...ltd repress

this track continues with their trademark combination of deep club grooves and great live musicianship as guitarist hideki ikeuchi glides over dj uchikawas driving beats while makoto kuriya adds his inimitable keyboard. in addition to the smooth main mix, rhythm of elements also provide a classic electronic dub for the deeper dance floors, getting techie while firmly rooted in the disco soul heritage. as if that wasnt enough, this 12inch is completed with an incredible cover version of grover washington jrs mr. magic with roe updating this classic to a midtempo soulful jazz burner. dj uchikawa has been a pioneer in japanese dance culture for decades, and is known for representing quality dance music from the classic boogie era to present day deep house scene. he owns the loft club in nagoya, japan. internationally renowned makato kuriya has played with some of the finest jazz musicians of the last century including nathan davis, chuck mangione, billy cobham, donald byrd to name a few. he has recorded numerous albums and performed worldwide. they decided to unite jazz with the electro dance music, and soon after rhythm of elements were created...

swedens speedmarket avenue are a a pop music collective led by a little guy who looks like a cross between charles manson and marc bolan. their new album is, without a doubt, one of the musical highlights in 2008 for all pop lovers! their debut album im going to let my new swiss army knife answer to that, was packed ful of jangle pop reminiscent of label 53rd and 3rd. the band have played various european festivals and collaborated with camera obscura on their lets get out of this country album thanks to the mutual connection of producer, jari haapalainen. under his direction, they ve now recorded their second album, way better now. an absolute beauty from beginning to end replete with precious pop melodies in a non conventional way, imaginative arrangements and an omnipresent trumpet. limited to 600 copies on vinyl.

after their big hit sorry, kaskade is back. accompanied by canadian wonderboy deadmau5 they are proud to present the beautiful move for me

excellent follow up !! when rino cerrone and joseph capriati work together these days, the most upfront minimal techno can be expected. this release is no exception, as these tracks are obviously made to rule the dancefloor! minimalistic, yet with a drive that we know from techno - the style both artists embraced when they got in touch with it...

americas hardest working, most profoundly suffering funnyman returns with his eighth drag city release. neil hamburger sings country and western. as with the classic celebrity vocal album by the likes of william shatner and telly savalas, neils personality shines through even when his vocal chords dont.

its ireland hottest techno label again and the goodies they ve got prime to spurt out of the old sac are pretty tumultuous. take this outing from heretics of disko, which is label boss desy palmers floating project which here sees him working with robbie dunne aka spectrum is green on a track which first appeared as part of the hold it down magazine compilation a couple of years ago. the two new mixes come courtesy of finlands lackluster bouncing around like richochet rabbit in a disused robot dump and japans yukio taking more of an electro route with percolating percussion to arrive at some engaging oddball alien funk. a diff kind of brotha is concrete soul collectives kenny black remixed by japans katsuhiko putting the female voice through a blender studded with clicks and efx plus leeds nasty bobby, who stretches the vocals savagely over chattering groove reminiscent of psychotic robo chipmunks confronted with david camerons knackers. maximum quality again.

incl remixes by solomun, john daly and krause duo

lowkey and kardinal have become a rising figure of french techno music thanks to a handful of impressive maxi. their rave inspired style, offering a wide range mixture of electro, techno and breakbeat sounds, has been working club goers up into a frenzy! and now they are back with their new single, future dancefloor killer called safari
