vibrations 002 comes from lhas, aka jaime read, who is here to show all these new old-school house heads precisely where to step off. a longtime cohort of foolish felix, who was horribly ripped off by a chicago legend (just google it) and the man to go to when you want _that_ vintage synth sound spotted, jaime knocks out four tracks that arent retro – they are timeless. from the classic chi-jack of >learning to live< to the swirling syncopation of >call that jazz<, these four tracks eschew rigid programming and live, breathe and ooze musicality. no remixes, just 100% lhas.

taking a break from compiling his latest masterpiece while simultaneously remixing and re-editing for various labels, al kent delivers another trio of peak time disco movers.. on the a side “feel it baby” is a classic everyone should know, twisted and tweaked for today’s loop-hungry dancers. the phrase “bassline to die for” was coined to describe this song. then there’s the strings… oof! flip it for you got it, an edit that’s been in al’s armoury a while, one that people always ask for.. so here it is. “drums to die for”? built around one serious serious disco break. lastly, theres loving living feeling. a super funky clav, rhodes and string groove that really packs a punch! million dollar disco is loved by dimitri from paris, pat les stache, solid state, cosmic boogie, greg wilson, peter adarkwah, the dead rose music company, horse meat disco, nik weston, chris harris and many many more..

portable strikes back on karat 8 years after his first appearance on the label. hes now delivering two massive tunes that gonna smash any dancefloor around the planet. >inside your mind< is a build up track with a proper vocal describing different levels of consciousness, and about the way of living your inner thoughts. this is a true masterpiece, already charted by a lot of djs and surely a future karat classic. >the gheto escapes< is a floor burner, acid stomper track that never stops to push up the pressure. portable releases here the more dance orientated record of his career and be sure this one will satisfy any kind of djs, from the house heads to the proper techno addicts. one infinite loop is hidden at the end of the first side. enjoy

limited 2011 repress in white coloured vinyl !!! incredible techno record, quo vadis, el jem and sparticus was made in 1994/95, and released in 95/96. you can feel the influences of classic maurizio and dbx here. already one half of lfo, gez varley definitely proves with this record that he can be a genius...

well rounded kick off 2011 with the deep space bump-n-hustle of littlefoots aptly named >interplanetary< ep.
all 4 tracks contrast tuff dry drums & low sweeping subs with cosmic atmospheres and twilight melodies and chords. theres a unique strictness in the drums here, less swung than typical garage but with innovative programming that shows a producer keen to explore new possibilities. as ever with well rounded and our producer friends, we are celebrating influences from the past - think classic 4/4 uk garage in the vein of dem 2, mixed with early 90s rave sounds and welded together in a motor city car plant. with added post-dubstep production sensibilities, littlefoot is creating an unheralded hybrid sound. all 4 tracks contribute to the completeness of the ep - we go in hard, explore different areas and complete our journey with the last track. we hope you enjoy this trip.

one off is a 10 inch coloured vinyl series for amp-art artists to release a one off track anonymously, under no name. this means anything goes and the only identification will be a number. future releases on the label will come from linkwood and cottam so that gives you an indiction of the kind of quality we have here. first up on the one off series we have an unnamed but acclaimed producer who delivers this stunning piece of electronic funk.

here is the 2nd 12 inch with cuts from the forthcoming grooveman spot 3rd solo project album >runnin pizza<. this 2nd 12inch has some nice beatdown vibes going with a hip hop aesthetic.

persnickety sounds is here to funk-ti-fy your world! in this era of nü-disco, space disco, cosmic disco, disco house and shit, there must be a beacon of quality to light the way and lead the faithful back to a place where good grooves matter and realness is holding court. let the labels fall and just get it movin. re-edited with the dancefloor in mind and your boogie in its sights, ps 1002 is another double portion of sonic goodness with a side of alright! after the >sisters are doin it< first time round its now time for the >brothers stay doin it!< now what say you good people?

fresh beats delivered directly from the caribbean by venezuelan producer trujillo on his latest appearance on the spanish-venezuelan label apersonal music. trujillos ability to make you feel caught up in an eternal summer vibe gets clearer and stronger with every track he releases. on this release main single >fruit punch< is simplicity at its best, squeezing the most out of basic classic-house elements. it builds up slowly until the original guitar tunes in, thats when you take a sip of your fruit punch (or whatever sweet drink comes handy) and enjoy the sea breeze in your face (whether its there or not..). for the extra flavor on your drink they pour an edit-format track >looking up through you<. lots of original ingredients here enough to make this edit an own piece of music... venezuelan keyboard player mister casanova on board plus trujillo mixing it all up in his best poolside bar style. fresh juicy punched stuff here! on the remix department 2 remix versions from uk based producer toby tobias plus a classy fashioned remix from canadian eddie c. tobias is a hard working man, and when you ask him for one he hits you twice, hard to pick one remix although one had to be selected for digital only release (size matters some time!). what can we say about eddie c.. apersonal had already made a statement that they love classic grooves, and it cant get classier than eddies beats on his remix! this groove is what house music is all about, and it will always be.

after the big succes of hi tech booty, we searched for some really special guys out there to put hand on ahmets bomb. well here it is. a1 comes from maetrik which was a strong desire of ahmet and for sure an excellent choice. he totally brings in his own style while getting a little bit closer to the darkside of the track. a2 is a special collab between rainer, which we know from the last regular stock5 record together with cesare vs disorder and viudez, a mexican guy that seems to have a very nice influence to the production style. the vocal is very present but placed, arranged and transformed geniously. for sure a weapon! b1 is written by our special friend chris sylvester aka inxec. starting with a very housy groove, it falls quickly into a hypnotic mood that is unique in inxec productions. he really knows what the dancefloor requires and for this we are very happy to have him again in our release roster. b2 presents a very new and fresh artist called rico casazza. he interprets the track in a very detroit way, works verz little with the vocal but hits it very perfectly for the sense of the track. after this debut on our imprint you can be sure to hear more of this young guy in the next time!!!

gb returns with >the xpander ep< fresh from his recently released >interprets…< project. here he flips styles & produces in the realm of electronic dance & ministers the marriage between analog synthesis & prayer ->the xpander< & >the dreamer<. hot!

twisted tongue follow up their acclaimed debut album with the first single from their follow-up lp, >a return to space<. eschewing the p-funk stylings of their self-titled debut, twisted tongue (dave jay & mark dalton) provide an essential revival of the mid-tempo soul stepper, featuring guest vocalist johanna lee sweetly leading a tough, incessant groove that recalls the classic likes of nick martinelli and the mizell brothers. twisting the track even further are the remixes provided by dj ray mang (dfa, mangled), one of the founders of londons nu-disco scene, who has long taken inspiration from new yorks golden era of the loft and paradise garage. twisted tongue writer/producer dave jay joined forces with ray for his >mang vs. mondo< ep on mangled earlier this year, and here mang returns the favour by dubbing out and extending >a return to space< to mind-bending effect. on the flipside is the cinematic, downtempo remix by blue states, which subtly subverts the original, transforming the track into a late night indie excursion. andy dragazis (blue states) has now been delivering his unique brand of melancholy, guitar-led head music for over decade, via labels such as xl recordings, and this mix of >a return to space< ranks up there with his most memorable work

whats my name, the latest single from the bajan songstress rihanna, is not a cover of the clashs 1977 punk classic, but finds riri taking a detour from the dancefloor-scorching grooves of only girl to craft a steamier cut which draws its heat from her short-lived, but much-buzzed-about relationship with the t-dot heavyweight. here, the upbeat synth boardwork of stargate sets the stage for a heaping helping of innuendo from both collaborators, drizzy handles verse one, sing-rapping his way through a double-entendre-peppered opener (the square root of 69 is (eight/ate) something… right? cause i been tryin to work it out.), and rihanna responds in kind, lacing her verses and chorus with some playful come-ons of her own. digging this catchy ode to young love/lust? then be sure to grab a copy of this vinyl and the heavy remixes it has.

italojohnson starts the new year punctual with his third stroke. this record will have something suitable on it for everyone out there. without batting an eyelid, its crosseyed and selfconfident, looking at three different floors at the same time: the a-side focuses on the chicago house floor. it begins with a recognizable toolish sound. slowely but surely the theme of the track opens – the track works through a breakdown, a classic drum roll sneaks in and jack grabs again. the b1 provides an unusual turn on the third italojohnson production. theres no space for compromises here. the track stomps on the steam engine warehouse floor. a flowing acid hookline is settled in the industrial drumline and gives the track its meaning. the second track on the flipside completes the whole package and is destined for the late night hours. thats everything there is to say about this track – the strength and emotion can only be experienced by listening first hand. love, peace and happiness

crazy p return to 2020vision with their first new material since the stop space return album. the mts series is a chance for jim & chris to get back to basics and produce some club tracks for their in demand dj sets, before they reconvene with the rest of the band for their next album. already making waves with both of their soloexcursions (ron basejam and hot toddy), they team up here for two perfect examples of their trademark disco and house vibes. crazy p are quite rightly held in great esteem from some of the hippest names around, wolf & lamb, jamie jones and tensnake to name three. they have been ploughing their own deep disco furrow for many years waiting for fashion to catch them up, and now can take the plaudits for being figureheads of this uk scene. my love is a superb raw house cut, thats custom built for sweaty basement sessions, influenced by classic us house. make me wanna takes a moreunk riffs and diva vocals. both of superb examples of the amazing crazy p sound and have had unanimous glowing feedback from the few people lucky enough to have heard them so far

from berlin to buenos aires! here the final part of the much appraised trilogy. a collaboration of paul brtschitschs rootknox and raeyks varianz. supported by: laurent garnier, timo maas, joel mull, shinedoe, secret cinema, slam, pig & dan and many many more !

originating from argentina, savor music is a multi-cultural project that aims at bringing out our favorite flavors in sound. the leading forces behind the project are cape and jorge savoretti, both natives of the city of rosario. savor music kicks off underlining the madrilenian connection, so dear to us. it is represented here by our great friend papol of the esperanza crew. developing his sound release after release, he allowed us to pick through his best tracks in order to inaugurate our 12 inch vinyl series. on the a side, first up is >before tea<, a strong driving bomb with a crossover appeal. on a2, ekkohaus delivers a surprising broken beat take of >dub 2010<.

re-issue on heavyweight double vinyl of this 1991 compilation with eurythmics biggest hits.

we dont need to tell you that rolando is a figure synonymous with the roots of techno. regularly djing in berghain, his unique brand of techno and heavy electronic funk has continued to evolve naturally into the sound youll here today. on rolandos first 12inch for ostgut, we find two diverse tracks each shedding light on the different poles of his current sonic focus. ben klock featured both >de cago< and >junie< on his >berghain 04< mix, and now we can enjoy the full tracks in their own right. the proud heritage of >de cago< is clear from the outset, yet rolando works crisp modern drums and edgy acidic synths into the mix, resulting in a potent concoction of jacking, edgy technofunk. unapologetically raw and gritty - and all the better for it - is >junie<. introducing a different production methodology, this multi-layered half-tempo exploration into eerie harmonics and slow building passages is the latest incarnation of rolandos emotional and instinctive melody writing

och pops up on baby fords pal sl imprint after a solid debut on autoreplys offshoot stuga musik. although the producer behind the och pseudonym remains mysterious for now, his early productions have garnered support from such esteemed figures as ame, norman nodge, gerd janson, dj sneak and anthony shake shakir, and this latest 12 inch is, in our humble opinions, ochs best yet. the standout track here hogs the entirety of the a side, with >bombay bedbath< characterised by some beefy drums and a drowning, late night soul vocal which complements the rolling groove. flip over for two wonderful b side obscurites, namely the rich ambient textures of >interlude intuitive< and twinkling piano lines and moody atmospherics of >out of key in<.

the hideout deconstruction revisited series is going into phase two, here we go: after the french connection (d julz and paul ritch ) , this new release sees a more international bundle of top class producers : to start , we have dusseldorfs master producer martin buttrich (desolat , planet e , ...) put his magic hands on davide squillace & luca bacchetti s around the bay ( ho001). the track starts with an >acoustic style< beat and, a strong sine sub bass line, evolving to a jacking groove with rising vocal sample , intelligent synth lines , and arabic flute break. on b2 , carola pisaturo ( titbit , claque) delivers a more minimal rework , using bouncy sub bass , vocal snipets , 909 snare and clap ... giving davide squillace and luca bacchettis around the bay a rebirth. on the flip side, mathias kadens ( vakant , cocoon ) relecture starts with a strong shuffled tribal beat , 909 toms , synth lines ... mathias interprets the original elements of around the bay in a very personal way , dropping snipets into reverbs and delays in order to create a deep rising atmosphere untill the track peaks.

here it is, the third release on the snuff crew label snuff trax! on snuff trax 003 you find winter in june. you might already know this track from the snuff crew livesets. winter in june is maybe the most melodic snuff trax release so far. this floating music is not only for the body - it s also something for the heart. on the b-side, dance disorder, who release on labels like bpitch control, deliver a fantastic and very epic remix. this mix was also already played by snuff crew in their set for tim sweeneys beats in space show. stx 003 is limited to 250 hand-numbered vinyls.

holmby hills two smooth n ruff house tracks and two hip hop-jazz encores turn this record into a testimony for the state of mind of formresonance. when soul is melted together into an off the grid house track, it is not that far-fetched that both men have shared their music ever since tapes existed. engin oeztuerk, one half of here today, which came out on philpot and buzzin fly and block barley (who already has released two albums on hong kong records and we aint music) are both tinkering in search of music to dance to. they wickedly transform their musical masters ideas into something extraordinary sounding. an off-the-grid team

marco resmann has done it. the studio computer is purring again like a satisfied kitten and those dark technical storm clouds have passed by. to prove that a streak of technical bad luck which he has just gone through can sometimes enhance creativity he has come up with this little gem of a new single >drop outz<. on a1 we have >mal pas< (transl: difficult road) which is an ode to the suffering he went through with his computer. but dont worry, its just a name, the track itself is as light and sweet as the stuff that we love from marco. b1 is also little beauty, no dark clouds to be found here either, and b2, a cracker called >whats cracking< is the ultimate proof to anyone that the sun always shines at upon you. enjoy and always think happy thoughts friends
