dont expect to see *played by* or *support from*, or anything like that in our new release, this is quality underground music not meant to make you jump on the dance floor, but to take you on a trip to another dimension. we are back and this is just getting started...

the 3rd outing from legwork comes from one of our label heads in lance desardi and singer/song writter jesse rennix. this ones been a long time in the making, but the final product is well worth the blood, sweat and tears. with a heavy nod to prescription records and the 1st & 2nd wave detriot pioneers, emotion is the order of the day. not much else to say, other than see for yourself. the heavens await

two slices of brilliant brazilian disco, painel de controle have a few bangers across their rca lps, these two being my favourites. *relax* is a straight up boogie monster, well known to deep disco & boogie heads flipped with *malandrinh* with its insanely catchy guitar. the original brazilian *relax* 7 inch plays at 33rpm (like many brazilian 45s), if you know you are cutting you will know this is not ideal. our new 7 inch is 45rpm and cut from a super crisp new master from the tapes at timmon cutting labs, sounds about 5x better than the o.g. ... simple choice.

remastered neuauflage eines der besten deep southern soul-alben aller zeiten von sandra bright aus memphis, später nashville, aus dem das stax-sublabel truth kurz vor der stax-insolvenz leider nur einige 7 inch singles auskoppeln konnte. 1989 erschien es dann bei demon records und wurde zur begehrten rarität.

the australian dj, producer and musician jad lee likes to have several irons in the fire all at the same time. for instance hes a member of mitzi (along charles murdoch and dominiqe bird), one half of the pan-pacific indiepop duo twiggy lashes and a solo artist known as jad & the ladyboy. under this moniker he releases music which can be described as soulful house with plenty of disco influences. for never come back down jad had singer mark borgazzi in his studio to cut a precious, groovy two-stepper into a genuine pop diamond. in order not to get only radio airplay, but also to be played out in gloomy underground clubs with extra fat subwoofers yannick provides his homicidal sexfactmix. with its untamed bassline and a milling-machine like synthesizer this feels like an unchecked punch to the gut. there will be blood on the dancefloor!

garofano rosso is the latest project by italian producer giorgio luceri, perhaps better known for his work on jamal moss mathematics label. this new work eschews the house stylings of previous releases in favour of a more classic cosmic approach. echoes of tangerine dreams thief ost mixed with what could perhaps be the imaginary soundtrack to miami vice if it had infact been set in rimini and starred maurizio merli as sonny crockett. these are not however just mere mood pieces, but take the sun, the sea and the body-count straight to the dancefloor. not to be missed. mastered by alek stark. artwork by eric lee. always limited. download code included.

here at nang towers we are really happy to have back slovenian talent sare havlicek, without any doubt one of our favourite producers, and to present you all his latest creation *movies for lovers*. sometimes we like to try something a bit different. often the process of creating an album can be a not-so-simple task: which tracks are the singles? which is the breather track? do we have ten songs? have we covered all the bases? the list goes on. sometimes the answer is to throw convention out the window and just try to harness a burst of energy and get it down on eighteen minutes-a-side of vinyl. we gave sare the following brief: lock yourself in a studio for four weeks and come up with a piece of cohesive work. abandon the formulas, do some experimenting and (most importantly) try some things you wouldnt normally do. *movies for lovers* is the result of that session and encapsulates the feeling of the journey sare embarked on to bring you this album.

new yorks marcos cabral has not so quietly been creeping up on unsuspecting victims of modern electronic music through the last years. his project as chemotex for trilogy tapes singlehandly executed a type of out of sync shuffle jack not seen since the days or early rush or even cajual which have had floorboard pulling effects in clubs when dropped. download code included. tip!

its release time for house is ok! frankfurt based label waited a bit longer than usual for its co-owner marko pelaic aka homeboy to come up with new sounds so it doesnt really surprise theyve decided to let him take over this, one man reign ep, first of that sort for this etiquette. kaprije is not only news for the label but homeboy himself in a way he defined it as writing a new chapter, stepping away from traditional house music, exploring more of the experimental and modern sounds a direction hes interested in continuing.

its not a simple thing to write about your own tunes. your concept is innate, the music itself is in your mind and comes out as a natural flow, talking about it is a different thing. this time i wanted to come up with something different for my new ep on vakant. something unexpected for the ones who know cesare vs disorders sound.

anonymous is a regular tune in chris liebings sets across the world since summer 2014. the track has been selected by rebekah on her mind sets compilation on clr. anonymous is a subtle groove driven techno tune designed for the dancefloor. on the flip side of clr087 emerson takes us on a cinematic journey with his very own too many people talking (not enough information). a mesmerizing ambient tune that invites us to get into emersons universe. anonymous ep by emerson is surely one clr release not to be missed. its big! (chris liebings words)

groundbreaking scientific news from the franconian space hq. ministers johannes albert and johannes paluka did some research on the moon for their new moon-project. they told us about the days and that it’s not that quiet anymore up there as people thought so far. don’t expect weightlessness up there, expect more abfahrt, they report. but they also discovered new robot dance moves in the nighttime. better known as the dark side. as always international interest in this is huge. moon, the first franconian techno-scientifics in space, checked out the area with very special research findings. smells like future historical stuff.

it might be quite obvious to some of you that follow our little label that we have a thing for schatrax. some would call it an obsession but we simply call it a crush. lets face it, the man has made some of the most timeless deep house from these mighty shores that make up the british isles - what s not to love? so, here he is again with mists a track previously unreleased but unmistakably schatrax. submerged beats, a skippy groove and a simple effective riff are the essence of the track while keep on loving injects a glorious uplifting feel with a bouncing b-line and classic piano riff. flipsides the almighty keeps things deep whilst aliena s groove is one of schatrax s signature tracks with it s haunting melancholic riff keeping the emotions high.

parages music presents their 8th release. on the a side there is a track by honesty, german dj-producer, half of slope music, signed on cabinet records and sonar kollektiv. he delivers for parages a big house track, full of warm chords, strong claps and a moving bassline. better drop this one at peak time ! the remix is done by the one and only moonstarr, broken beat pioneer and classy remixer. a man who knows everything about detroit techno, hiphop and bossa. moonstarr chop honestys track into a fast groovy tune, bassline and chords are losing control! on the b side its adjowas tune orient. the man is producing a lot recenlty, signed on freerange, dont be afraid and happy skull. this track is made live with vintage gear and is tape recorded. orient is a boogie electro bomb, super vintage synths, maximum groove bassline, and dusty reverb. a must have.the remixer on this side is basic soul unit, not necessary to introduce this one. top producer, dj and remixer. it is his 2nd appearance on parages. bsu switches adjowa’s track into a dub affair, basement feel, 808, masterclasstune.

the maghreban is new to house music, and doesnt really listen to house music, which isnt necessarily a bad thing. he has worked extensively in other genres under other names. looking at house from these sideways perspectives perhaps gives him an interesting angle on it. this second release sees the maghreban expand his sonic palette somewhat, taking in some african sounds but also continuing along the vintage theme of his first 12 inch. radio play from benji b (bbcr1), thristian (nts), support from ben ufo (rinse/hessle), brian not brian (going good/kristina records), gatto fritto (international feel), sasa (in flagranti, nts), leri ahel (mutant disco).

rawax proudly welcomes arttu to the artist family! his debut on chiwax could be not bigger - high time wobbles!

ltd warehouse found! displacing common sense with burly daring while not engaging with lenient, populist timber-rhythmic solutions is something not only rare, but also urgent and ever loved by clubbers and close listeners alike. operating a warping double torsion onto the electro-acoustic stripe, marteaux(internet and jazz infused from early age) pushes an elegant, at once minute and far-out sort of hybrid, unflappable envelope bound to make you dance, chill or, even better, listen to over and over, detained by the studiously assembled details and inviting atmosphere.

after a very techno first release, unanim returns with another approach of the genre. it is herodot who delivers two very different tracks for his duo ep.
silent record rules the first side of this vinyl and its a monster. the rolling bassline and the powerful percussion are backed by tripping background noises. you cand also hear french experimentalist duo radiomentalle and david toops distorted voice. this one is definitely not silent and 100% destined for the dancefloor.
on a more subtle note side b features tul which is not as * loud* and a bit tool-ish. lurking sounds populate the background and the shakers provide a percussive feeling throughout the track. techno hasnt left the building !

years ago and aided by his older brother, the maghreban used to listen to a london pirate called green apple. he very much enjoyed these sounds. whilst not identical to what was played on the station, this tune is influenced by those and earlier times.
single sided pressing, stamped whitelabel.

norwegian producer thomas urv drops the småskansen ep on his own ploink imprint this april. one of norways leading techno prospects, thomas urv has promoted and played at countless events across the country featuring the likes of jeff mills, juan atkins, derrick may, carl cox, richie hawtin, robert hood and kevin saunderson. when not delivering his three deck performances across scandinavia, spain, france, holland, canada and the uk (for fabric and bestival) the norse producer is firmly focused on ploink and his studio activities. *fuktig sol* leads the ep and is a sinister cut led by a morose hook and syncopated rhythm whilst whirring atmospherics add to a looming tension. the dark undertones continue in *stell/less* although steady kicks construct a vibe better suited towards peak time dancefloor madness. tying up the release *sånn isbre* delivers a frenzy of layered sounds that evolve over the course of a lengthy 16 minutes.

faust recordings is the new black techno label established by the italian dj and producer cristian carpentieri and his friend sandro leucci, one of the most famous art directors, designers and illustrators in italy. faust: a music that is not immoral is unworthy of being called music at all. well-known pleasure ep includes a remix produced by silvision.

this release marks a new beginning for berkovi, better known for his tougher music man, force inc, djax and harthouse releases over recent years. after haunting the bside of one release too many, a reboot into a more beloved and emotional techno template is obviously reaping dividends. according to the man himself, this is no trend following phenomenon: i ve always produced deeper music, more often than not even years ago was always pushed to b sides of eps or remixes but now it s the main thing i want to do, techno with soul. after releasing a lot of more melodic material on labels such as eevonext and an album for trapez a few years ago i want to return to solely concentrating on this style for my music and live sets

six years on from his debut album on cadenza, mirko loko returns to the fold with a follow up album (- comet plan -) and a single (- kolor -).
2009s * seventynine* long player helped catapult mirkos profile, not only as a producer, but also as dj, regularly spinning alongside the cadenza crew, and with detroit luminaries such as derrick may and carl craig. and its on this single that mirko invites friend and peer, carl craig, to remix under his c2 guise. wearing his influences on his sleeve, mirko is obviously indebted to the techno music of the motor city, and these classic detroit tropes are certainly used in the building blocks of the original mix of “kolor-, a sprawling and pacey intergalactic journey sprinkled with a dusting of xylophones, bells & chimes, as the melody is driven forward for a heady trip across the night skies.

with iyewaye, the first solo-ep after the release of his fifth album i am ok last year, oliver koletzki shows himself in a new, but not altogether unfamiliar light: since his breakthrough in 2005 with der mückenschwarm koletzki hasnt sounded this hard. gone is the pop-angle, replaced by a dark sound-aesthetic and raw energy. but even here, in the techno realm, oliver koletzki demonstrates his inimitable sense for melody: thus, the gloomy and driving framework of iyewaye is lit up by a crystal-clear synth-sequence. similarly, ipuza, which hypnotizes by way of reduction and repetition, is funky in its core thanks to a rolling tribal groove. functional, but with heart and soul.

ruede hagelstein and watergate go hand in hand. not only is ruede one of the longest running residents at the club, but hes also the man behind some of the labels most acclaimed music and the curator responsible for lucky number 13 in the illustrious watergate mix series. with this, it seemed obvious to put ruede up to his next task: an album. it is with great anticipation and excitement that we bring you the first lp for both ruede and watergate records, apophenia. the double 12 inch includes a digital downloadcode.

its all about the bangin keeping with the theme of the ep, the duo lay down a maximum big room monster intended for the last wallflower as well as the serious party-animal. minimalistic 4×4 married to magical chords with the hot & cool vocal tradeoff. celebration techno. large mechanics (modulation dub mix) stripped & delivered proper by detroits own dj k1. straight, no chaser. alien fm mantra (station to station id) not a track, but a vocal id directly from the groups antenna/used as a dj tool voice over in sets. eerie broadcasted vocal concept and description left clear of music. a puzzlebox recordings staple

first off, we have two brothers (convenient, right) from italy who sent us a killer demo we simply couldn t refuse: the lion brothers. up next is the true veteran: lemakuhlar, who s finally back with a fresh dose of his awesome music. this one s a real gem, finally available after spending many years as an exclusive in maxim s sets. audio city soul is the new alter ego of one of our favourite artists, who s ready to take it to the next level. last but not least, maxim lany seals the deal with a new track called groot feest , which is dutch for big party... go figure!

10 rare french disco and boogie titles, all produced between 1975 and 1984. 500 copy press - check! on one hand, tracks by overdrive, marché noir, didier makaga or france-lise, were produced by underground artists and labels from the french caribbean and african community and also filled with the raw spirit of this tropical stamping. on the other hand, tracks by beckie bell, kelly, le club, or bernard guyvan, were released by major labels such as trëma, carrere, disques vogue, or pathé marconi, thanks to confirmed independent producers, acting not only in france, but also in canada and the us

wolfers incorporating uplifting, dreamy synth sequences alongside his instantly recognizable gritty floor-fillers. the title track is such a killer...future classic!

a: power clean is like the clean movement but adding some extra power by lifting the barbell high enough to get under it. 2000 and one translated this movement combining a slightly distorted techno beat with stabby chords for dance floor force. b1: fabregas with its eerie sounding synth riff and a 909 beat is destined to be a prolific scorer, just like the one and only top athlete. b2: solid state is not an ordinary tool. it is more than that. to find out, play loud

northern structures delivers a stunning new 4 track ep of broken beat industrialized techno. known for original sound design and great mix production, northern structures delves into moods of isolation and experimentalism on this latest release. this is forward thinking techno that leads from a front and works not only for club listening but is perfect for home listening as well. enjoy!

you would be forgiven for not knowing the newest addition to the slowly expanding claremont 56 roster. you see, there has been no recorded output from german combo bambi davidson since the release of their largely overlooked minimal post-rock debut album, el faco, in 2000. until now, that is.

a masterpiece of electronic music. two long slow deep hypnotic killers tracks based on complex rhythm structures is the beginning of a wonderful mind journey. we are extremely proud to present wndfrm aka tim westcott, a new face on prologue. tim is a prefect fit for prologue and he has the talent to deliver mental sounds in perfections. everything is in a hypnotic flow but there is always a constant anchor point for your mind in order to get not lost! or you even get lost!

by now the leipzig based overdubclub got fixed in the heads of instrumental music lovers in germany outside the city boundaries. the concept and the unique sound of a beatmaker roundtable which focuses not just on each participants productions, but also on the jam character, shows through diversity and individuality what is possible when making music collaboratively.

eye teeth, the new techno sub-label of interdimensional transmissions, launches with an ep from israel vines. the label say: we started this sublabel as way of exploring pure and experimental techno in an entirely contemporary context (where it often uses historical lenses and a wider musical context). this is techno from detroit and america, not detroit techno. we would like to see american techno evolve, and this new imprint is an attempt to be a catalyst in that arena.

after three years of irregular visibility but strong pulsations generated by steaua de mare and the great disclosure of rodion g.a., future nuggets unveils its second compilation sounds of the unheard from romania.

initially alfonso muskedunder was just the nickname for my newborn son alf, but the character soon started leading it s own life. interpreted for this single by a bunch of good people, such as deetron (jazzy-ish housey-ish), bullion (main vocal funky latin house mix... or not. it s vocal though), mungolian jetset (acid mambo deep in the forest, quattro formaggio pizza style) and the mysterious tangoterje (dub mambo especial), the icing on the cake finally came in the form of a fully animated music video courtesy of bendik kaltenborn and espen friberg. kind of tricky to explain exactly what goes on in that one, guess you have to see for yourself...

it was a hot summer day, no clouds in the big blue sky, as i suddenly got up to return my friends basketball after not returning it for more then 10 years
