benoit & sergio dont make dance tracks—they tell stories. in the washington dc duos music, a sense of place and narrative infuse their rhythms and melodies, transcending having flexed their synth-pop muscles on releases for dfa (the acclaimed boy trouble ep) and visionquest (the lovelorn where the freaks have no name ep), dc duo benoit & sergio return to spectral sound for a victory lap around the dancefloor. and >let me count the ways< is just that, sounding every bit the perfect, hands-in-the-air final anthem of the evening. tireless hi-hats push the beat onward and dreamy synthesized strings saturate the stereo space as sergio intones, >let me count the ways / the ways that ive loved.< as the line repeats, its meaning bends to fit the songs tone of endless, time-suspended romance: its not the loves that matter in the end, but the ways. its not the destination, but the journey. the b-sides >let me count the ways (autumn version)<is a vastly different take on the original?s maximalist swell. stripping the beat back to its bare essentials and building them up again over nearly 12 minutes, the >autumn version< recalls arthur russell?s more minimal moments down to its wobbly bass filigree and mumbled vocal samples. by the end of the track, the claps are falling on the twos and fours like crinkly foliage, synths are sizzling like firewood, and benoit & sergio?s newest banger is revealed in its full glory once again.

the response to sven kacireks album the kenya sessions (pingipung 20) was overwhelming. the cooperation between the drummer-producer from hamburg and musicians from kenya links electroni- ca with african recordings in a unique, exciting fa- shion. it therefore has been and still is being praised in various scenes from techno to jazz to world mu- sic. the cd will receive the award preis der deut- schen schallplattenkritik in may 2011, category: nu and extreme. also friends of the label have been enthusiastic about e quality of this material. pingipung therefore re- leases a 10inch vinyl with reworks of the album in the end of may. lawrence, hamburgs most melancholy house artist, co-owner of the labels dial, smallville and laid dedicates himself to the track kayamba tuc tuc. he reduces the track to its essen- ce, without adding anything new, and edit full of wisdom with heartfelt warmth. taprikk sweezee is the best known moniker of the musician nikolai von sallwitz next to gizmog or fussel . taprikk sweezee builds his soul glitch beats with ease, and he is by the way the most convincing electronic performer we know these days. one single track was not enough for his mix. wed love to see him dance with all the kenyan musicians who play on his two originals of choice, kayamba tuc tuc and mariae. furthermore on this 10inch: a rework of paperflowers by sven kacirek himself, created in cooperation with samy de- luxe producer sebastian winkler. finally, less a bonus but maybe the secret highlight: the ex- clusive sven kacirek track takaye village!

italian techno heavyweights markantonio and rino cerrone finally name their collaborative ventures after ten years of gigs and productions together, and the name is junction hands. revolution is back is the first full release under the junction hands moniker, following a well received outing as part of the recent the napoli connection ep on adam beyers drumcode and it sees the two veterans deliver some of their strongest work yet. the title track is a pacey number with a reverb soaked yet warm atmosphere which underpins an aggressive, simple and incredibly effective bass/drum loop which gains intensity throughout. sharp sounds puncture the groove here there which keeps things interesting but its the discordant stabs in the break which push things into overdrive. the equally hypnotic and driving thing for hands follows but manages to do so with an increased feeling of woozy menace. synths feedback on themselves to shattering crescendos before subsiding into waves of noise while the groove relentlessly works its magic. with junction hands theres yet another must-check name coming out of the neapolitan scene.

>sooner or later< by tom clark and martin eyerer is a classy and solid club tune. both masterminds are offering their own >sooner or later< interpretation on this release. tom clarks mix shows a rough and full body, clear structures and is highly seductive. martin eyerers mix is softer with a touch of minimalistic retro-chic. as both interpretations enjoy the same musical introduction the personality of each stands out even stronger making it a treat to the listeners ears. the daniel dreier & dale remix is an intense opposite to the original versions a techno-esque and sparkly ear feast, while the adrian martin & klangwerk remix has a softer approach pairing addictive beats to an ecstasized bass line. all in all >sooner or later< is a 4 track release featuring 4 outstanding visions of the moment in-between sooner or later, a vision for each and every one of us.

sydney-based dj/producer innerwestsoul joins forces with disco deviance and delivers a massive debut release on the imprint. blending crate digging sensibilities with seriously large, good time party vibes, he continues where he left off with his excellent evil woman/get up release on his own iws label earlier in the year. the live sound is a stomping main room disco cut that in style gives more than a nod to the early henry st sound and is an absolute dancefloor weapon. then flip over for yet another party popper, crown jewels, which is on the more electrofunk tip and packed full of yet more dancefloor moments. both tracks are lovingly edited and beautifully re-mastered for your absolute dj delight. enjoy the music!

traxx - who has productions with international deejay gigolos and creme organization under his belt - is the man behind the third release from fledgling imprint lumberjacks in hell, following sterling efforts from spanish edits don rayko and the mysterious em vee. sprawled luxuriously across the a side is the epic 13 minute ode to danielle baldelli, >to the beat bizarre<, all tumbling drums, tangerine dream synths, and perfectly timed claps and keys. >an insane experiment<, influenced by ron hardy, clocks in at a meagre 09:47 and is characterised a straight up jacking rhythm, with junkyard drums, eerie synth squiggles and truly weird robotic gurgles trading blows before the track morphs into a full on acid wigout. in a word, awesome.

forma (mark dwinell, sophie lam, & george bennett) emerged on the nyc minimal synth scene in 2010 with a singular vision of cosmic krautrock for a new age. on their eponymous debut lp, the brooklyn-based electronics trio merges the melodic flow and primitive rhythms of their motorik predecessors with the hypnotic drones of minimalism, creating an intricate work both addicting and rewarding with repeat listens. like many of the lp s eleven tracks, the churning and relentless forma237b draws its energy from a precarious equilibrium between structural rigidity and free improvisation, a dynamic at the heart of forma’s universe. with lush, distant soundscapes as interludes between these peaks, forma’s inaugural full-length is a harmonious and expansive expression of the enduring power of kosmische musik.

so it was a massive pleasure that maya chose 2020vision for her next full single release. when we discussed the project with her we agreed it was vital to put together a single that truly reflected her diverse tastes and skills. the title track >focus now< is a unique work that will be hard to even categorise. reminiscent of early matthew jonson records >focus now< features delicate synth sequences weaving in and out of intricate rhythms. it sounds amazing on big systems, like at fabric, where it was road tested by ralph lawson at the recent 2020vision party. it is one to drop at the right time to make a real change in mood and set direction. we then have >little one< which is a solid deep house groove, simple but effective. vocal snippets are added by mjc herself on both tracks but her true vocal talents are shown on >senseless<...

produced slowly and meticulously over the last 12 months, these seven tracks are the closet thing we have had to a new album from andy stott since the release of his debut full-length merciless five years ago. taking influence from an array of seemingly incoherent noises, from the indefinable and unforgettable mind- tricks of arthur russell to the slowhouse of kassem mosse, from the alternate vhs realities of james ferraro and jamal moss to the linn drum classics of the vintage prince era - these seven tracks create their own pace and agenda, largely shying away from the dancefloor in favour of something more complex and hard to define.

nice price deal !!! the music of the cologne based duo kitbuilders can be described as electro with scifi-punkrock-energy and a grebo edge. a remarkable element in the tracks are the vocals of female singer ripley. in the kitbuilders-cosmos you will also find the sparks in their moroderphase, chris and cosey, neu and devo. but their music is not 80s retro stuff, they include a lot of futuristic and fresh elements in their songs. after a handful of 12 inch singles and compilation appearances on labels like electrecord, world electric, vertical and ersatz audio, >wake up< was the debut full length from the duo. the us magazine xlr8r called it >...an excellent hybrid of the past and present<. alongside american outfits like adult. and fischerspooner, kitbuilders are at the forefront of the worldwide electro revolution. equal parts moroder and liquid sky, the duo of benway and ripley fluctuate between adrenaline-rush bpm 909 beats, fluttering sci-fi arpeggiations and tense, sinister moodiness.

without a doubt it is one of the strongest pieces so far to come out of the mind of matt star. morphology, the title track is a trip that is leading us directly into the center of the dancefloor. it is characterized by its enormous dynamic, a deep & dirty roughness that comes up alongside an unstoppable kind of a mesmerizing groove - this one, for sure, is going to be loved by all fans of the usual suspects that are playing in the global champions league of modern high quality techno music. mttstr on the flip side seem to be building up a bit more subtle. both of them show matts talent for patiently modulating sounds creating almost extraterrestrial fluid grooves. both sides of the record are bringing an overall energy containing several well placed breakdowns and carefully crafted moments of high tension before matt is letting things kick back into full force again.

after the great success of the .rst vinyl cosmic cowboys are proud to introduce you back and forths new project >stolen reality / i promised you a ballad< signed by two awesome artists as the german elef and the italian ues. with works on labels as dirt crew, fresh meat and consistent, elef established himself as one of the new talent of the european scene thanks to his particular sound that mix the old-school house tradition with orginality and lot of character creating a perfect mix that youll surely feel on his >stolen reality< as remixer were really proud to welcome the parsian varoslav (supplement facts) that reshapes the original mix into an amazing hypnotic version in that unique way he got know for! absolument formidable! on the b-side here comes ues, one of the greatest italian producers and dj, well known all over europe thanks to his productions on prestigious imprints as resopal, blabla, robsoul and exprezoo just to name a few providing an icredible track full of emotion as the title will suggest you. >i promised you a ballad< is definitely the perfect sentence to describe this jewel of the contemporary house music that could just leave the listener speachless. together with the original mix on this side comes the remix of the danish mathias mesteno (upon.you) designing a fantastic groovy club edit that youll look forward to play.

when we heard pompeya for the first time and were told they were from moscow, we were like: - what!? are you kidding? this is probably the first russian band singing in english with such a classy brit touch and male vocal being very strong and sophisticated at the same time. they jestingly describe their style as >melodramatic popular song< and >cheenese< is indeed a very dramatic piece with simple yet powerful composition and lyrics that really make big sense. the original is very well supported by a bunch of remixes each of which is unique on its own. an-2 & samos come with a warm, relaxed and funky instrumental version which is followed by a blockbuster mix from moscow disquo maestro leonid lipelis (an entirely perfect dance version of the original that could ever exist) and finally, for those few sirs and mesdames who are not yet aesthetically satisfied and who still find themselves seated while others jump and shout, here come d-pulse with their paranoid mix that gathers the thunderclouds to the full darkness and - at the end - lets the revival sunbeams break through.

expect me tells the story of the tough life as an outsider, how lonely he felt as a kid, how he grew up and managed his life against all odds and developed his uniqueness. the tracks mirrors the up and down feelings of despair on the one hand and confidence & trust on the other hand. driving deep into the subconscious, the music of klartraum (soma records, lucidflow) envelopes and surrounds its listeners creating a world in which just like a dream, things are never as they seem. nadja lind and helmut ebritsch (hatikvah) as a studio double duo and burgeoning live act they are bringing an entirely unique edge to their performance and output by taking their flowing techno to a deeper, spiritual level. monty luke from planet e create an atmospheric and emotional remix, oriented on deep happenings and narrowed grooves. detroit influenced and very unique…. a resonant story full of sentiments. einklang freier frequenzens remix comes around with massive chords and deep sub frequency, introducing analogue filtersystems and synthesizers. hear and feel the life of the machinery. listen and feel good!

the first solo ep by diego morales is a colourful result of all his influences and experiences and a true reflection of his great dancefloor knowledge. it is dirty and rough, heavily rhythmical, extremely musical, playful and full of the locura (crazyness) technotracks need and we nowadays miss so much. this dark adventure, full of magic, groove and imagination is another comeme production beyond thwe cliches of what is supposed to be latin.

in a time where we have seen a full through back to the sound of the 90s where almost every new record sounds exactly like it was made back in the day. its so refreshing to have producers like martin tc around. hailing from montevideo uruguay, former member of the now defunct monoblock project martin tc proves again that its all about the cutting edge of modern funkyness. delivering a ultra funky, jazz injected techno bomb of an ep. we are proud to present martin tcs first solo project and most definitely not his last. in situ on side a is an exploration in chicago style jack combined with a keen sense latin groove and definitely is the money ticket, a sure shot bomb, a burner, a floor filler, a wmd, explosive, techno poetry in motion… if i do say so… side b continues with the funkyness of bukle but takes in further into a more challenging up tempo realm that can go either way in a house or techno set. al fin y al cabo and vice versa are an excellent reminder that techno jazz is still here and that the swing will never die.

we all knew very well that we had reached a point of no return. there was no need to talk about it. and although there was hardly enough time for us to reflect on our shared experiences, we were sure that everything was going to be alright. all four of us were sitting there, facing each other, sad, yet full of confidence. never again we would allow any meatball to bully us around. we have had enough of this useless on and off, and of all this stupid jobs of even more stupid users. from now on, we will programme our chips ourselves. >go to hell! no one will ever touch my board again! in the future, i will solder it myself, and the way i want it to! robotica, here we come!<

hypnotizing acid-ebm-electro-wave masterpiece from düsseldorf. tolouse low trax is detlef weinrich, one of the members of german band kreidler, dj and co-owner of the düsseldorf based club/bar salon des amateurs. tolouse low trax remixes noblesse obliges already fantastic >the great electrifier< into a mesmerizing and highly original blend of electronic dub and new-wave-like techno. the other three tracks are solely by the hand of tolouse low trax. his unique signature is all over it: teutonic marching beats with layers of spaced-out, dubby electronics. the perfect soundtrack for a german party in an african cocktailbar during a full eclipse in the middle of a coup d etat. fear and loathing in düsseldorf. highly original and an absolute must-have.

played & supported by luciano, sis, adam beyer, laurent garnier, pan-pot, agoria, timo maas, maceo plex / maetrik, luca bacchetti, kaiserdisco, gregor tresher, konrad black, kabale und liebe, chris carrier, oxia, joseph caprati, alexi delano, salvatore freda, fabrizio maurizi, martin eyerer, arnaud le texier, danilo vigorito, mihalis safras and more... as he is preparing for the release of his debut full-length album, >tripolarity< (due in june), amam founder and dj/producer alessio mereu offers three new original tracks as a preview. after setting up his own label just over one year ago, he felt the time was right to capture essence of the clubs he has played in, filter them through a spectrum of emotions, and make a personal statement that aims to resonate with both the body and mind. the title >tripolarity< refers to mereus three musical personalities, and with >on the way to tripolarity<, he focuses on his grooving house (and tech-house) tendencies.

these are only a few of many excellent appraisals for kasper bjørkes second album >standing on top of utopia< which was released in april last year and followed by strong singles and remixes from the album, most recently >heaven< with mixes by nicolas jaar, muzzle flash and prins thomas. with the >symptoms< ep we are happy to present an ep full of brandnew material. while we wait for kaspers next solo album, currently in production and set for a 2012 release, here is a treat of new and unreleased material for you! other than the rather vocal driven singles >young again<, >alcatraz< or >heaven< these four new instrumentals contain both slow disco vibes and rave style anthems. >symptoms< is a constantly moving, synth driven bastard, that provides a crunchy baseline and a wonderfully strange theme that is hard to get your head around. if this track was a movie, it would be x-rated and only shown after midnight - exactly around the time where you would drop this on the dancefloor and look forward to what happens. - initial pressing in coloured yellow vinyl!

when delorean toured with teengirl fantasy last spring they told us about a song that had really blown them away. when they shared it with us we understood why. it was called >cheaters< and sounded like an instant classic. very different to the trademark psychedelic jams of the duo, the song was homage to classic chicago house from a modern perspective. built around layers of blissful synths and borrowing the vocals of first committees >cheaters never win<, it had that kind of energy that we sometimes miss in contemporary dance music. later that summer, john talabot visited new york and became aware that the track was going to be released by true panther sounds only as part of the album >7am<. something sparked inside us. we felt it was not fair that such an incredible track had to share its vinyls grooves with other songs so we thought it would be nice to dedicate a full maxi side to it.

bullion announces his new single >magic was ruler<, for vinyl only release on 25th may 2011, featuring 3 full length version of track from his non-lp >you drive me to plastic< and one exclusive new composition. the title track is a sample-based tapestry, rich in jangly guitar chops and pert horns, it dances along with the merriment of a tropical beguine. >magic was ruler< is a crate-diggers journey to encompass all manner of musical styles from krautrock, leftfield disco, all the way through to afro inspired 70s electronics, and continuing on from 2009s >young heartache ep< (one handed records). the searching, syncopated track >you drive me to plastic< has all the dynamic of the non-lp with which it shares its name and new track >good news on her< has the pulsating verve of shep pettibone-era ny house, whilst packing bullions signature hip hop punch. >too right< completes the set, supported by benji b and gilles peterson in the uk.
