living records is a new label masterminded by londons dub kult. fitting with dub kults dj style,the musical focus of the label is very much fixed on the dancefloor with an experimental, leftfield edge.providing something for the body, mind and soul as they say. a unique feature of living is that each vinyl release will have a free exclusive mp3 that can be downloaded from the livingrecords

one listen to ‘atlantis to interzone’ and the several miles of dots between post punk psychedelic pop and pill popping dance music are quickly joined, where screaming sirens and samples straight out of a field in ‘89 give way to the punked out half-falsetto, half melodic breakneck vocals and drums. klaxons (that s jamie, simon and james) created a chorus that can be both screamed drunkenly and sung quietly to yourself on the bus. this anthem (of the year?) is offered with remixed version by our extra-skills duo digitalism, alongside an extra long industrial technoid mix by nightmoves and a ‘break for love’ mix by dave p and sparkles’

new born label hertz records, sprung from the depths of scanian no-mans land, begins its crusade towards world domination with a release from detroit dutchman orlando voorn. the fix man genuinely delivers his best release in years, bringing the high energy funk as usual with two deadly dance floor killers. >enter< is a driving techno monster, with an old school detroit minimal groove akin to rob hoods productions on m-plant or even some of the more tame blacknation releases, updated with a modern freshness in voorns own unique style. but as this music does not translate well into words in our opinion, descriptions are useless until you hear it for yourself

nach >keep our pace< der naechste elektro techhouse burner von eyerer & namito. das original ueberzeugt nicht nur in den fruehen morgenstunden, der etwas zuegigere monoromm remix ist mit dezenten trance elementen mehr auf peaktime ausgelegt wohingegen der markus guenther remix mit extrem entspannten 120 bpm auf charmante art die after hours einleitet and damit diese scheibe zum multifunktionalen werkzeug komplettiert.. 20.09.2006

apendics.shuffle has been tearing through clubs for the last few years on labels such as adjunct, resopal red and orac, but it is here on leftroom that he has hit top form. 3 tracks of twisted trademark hooks, and crisp production make this a must. our very own szenario turns in an eerie remix for those early hours also!!! label support now from richie hawtin, ricardo villalobos, luciano, craig richards, magda, troy pierce, matthew dear, need we say more....

routemaster records return with another stormer! this time around , we enter a world of driving acid techno with plenty of use of our old friend the roland tb 303 !! dj ant from powertools label teams up with nick grater here to deliver some heavy tuneage! the b-side is a more ravey - influenced affair

this is the first volume of a limited edition serie of 12” featuring some of his unreleased tracks or lost gems for the first time on vinyl duriez was very active behind the gears in the nineties and his appetite for electronic tunes lead him to produce hundreds of tracks in many genres. the man did produce house & techno but also drum&bass (he has produced an album in 1998 unreleased for now that we will release as download only on our new imprint aperto – check the web soon, the label will also release his unreleased album from 2002 as le dav) or downtempo.

stunning hardtechno to burn the floor !!! volume two is definitely a true treat for those sick of the other part of today s scene, which is exploring there way into the infinite abyss due to their search for the ultimate minimalistic sound. in the end there will be a few clicks and cuts left and most of those in need for percussive music will be begging for rock-hard, cut the crap sharpness like this new fatalic resignation !!

infekto (aka rico tubbs) has been turning heads on the funkier floors across the world with his signature sound of heavy, polished beats alongside party rockin bass and catchy hooks a plenty. funky music carries a similar tone to ghetto soul, miami treble, and his last money shot outing, the real funk. funky music also pays tribute to one of our favourite instruments of all time the cowbell. cuz every tune could use a little more cowbell

yezz its us again vlad and rutch but now we are backed up by our brother salam e. and you dont wanna know why he is called likethat if you thought rutchov had a big one check out salam e. shit man its unbelievable oh yeah something about the records it rocks again

founding promoter and resident at the world renowned technique parties in leeds, kid blues profile continued its steady rise with his move to london in 2006 and his new residency at our very own chew the fat.. incl kickflip remix

2 first choice classics getting a remix treatment by 2 of the greatest of our time dr love getting refreshed by kerri chandler flip over for a danny krivit mix of let no man put asunder a must have

after a long time friendship and countless over-the-top partycrashes together, we are very happy to welcome our friend and one of our fave djs, mr. jens bond on highgrade. after his vinyl debut with guido schneider on steve bugs pokerflat recordings last year this is jens bond s second record to hit the streets. jens, who managed to establish himself as one of the true top djs within the berlin house scene, delivers a 12inch which represents his musical (and spinning) style of electronic dancemusic very well - dry, compulsive grooves, a very minimal-housy structure with deep aesthetics, perfect sound design and an overall superb float between the hard and the soft, exactly what we wanted from this guy and more!

according to dan curtin: this work shows history and knowledge of the music that inspired most of what we listen to today. every track demonstrates a rich and thick production that perfectly compliments the musical contents. ranson definitely pays homage to the sound of the detroit originators but still displays his own direction and identity. this is future soul with emotion unbound to our planet. so far full support from dan curtin/ fabrice lig and funk d void!

die titelhelden diverser magazine mit ihrem neuen album. schnuckelige musik von schnuckeligen jungs !!!

mesak s 3rd twelve inch on dexter s own klakson records. one half of electro duo mr velcro fastener comes back with his solo project mesak. and brings probably his best release to date.. at least it is his most danceable release ever. our favorite is the jacking let get sum bang which rocks every club for sure!! the other tracks are more electrofied techno-ish tracks which reminds us of some classic carl craig work including the outstanding pak track. like all klakson releases this is another hot one. very much what we like!

adaptor from athens is a pushing the electronic sound of greece into our dancefloor and with good effect ! minimal groovy production but oozing with soul from the south. remixes courtesy of fellow greek leon segka (crosstown rebels/ntrop) and our very own fave dave dk

the track loud minority is dedicated to alex dallas loud minority residency in zurichs great club dachkantine, which closed down and was a home for great guests such as carl craig, pepe bradock, juan atkins, metro area, herbert and maurice fulton to name just a few. they all inspired us to create music which incorporates all our beloved music and combine different style elements to a fresh and maybe even a typical zurich sounding way. with dessert you can fade away and feel the ability of foster to take you into his simple but at the same time very sophisticated form of musical expression. kanona does what the title suggests. all tracks are flavoured with a great detroit feeling there are many things to say about this record but theres nothing better than listening to it.

classwork is the very own label by one of our favourite italian s : diego montinario aka. >sandiego< better known as half of >boggie drama< on wasnotwas or >sachi and sandiego< on 20:20 vision. diego favours one real alternative to the frickelfrackle miniclicking today scene. sparkling, dubby kick ass real house, slightly hallucine but full of air and boogiefunk and most of all a dry no nonsense killer production. or in other words - sandiego s tracks fill up the room in minutes - put the volume up and get sucked into - it. tip

inc. mikael stavöstrand rmx sunset diskos – the deep and funky minimal techno label from mikael stavöstrand. presents it second release with a four tracker from our man in los angeles. a bit different from what you usually hear from this guy but for sure funky and chrunchy. starts off with a minimal, deep and clever melodic piece >its in the eyes< , evolving as slowly as it should .. into the next step with a bit deeper touch >in charge<. the flip side continues with >about to be< pushing the groove to the max before we find mikael stavöstrand taking >in charge< forward into deep minimal techno terrains including lots of small crunchy rythms , deep vocals and a serious groove. apendics.shuffle – aka. kenneth james gibson, a man of many personas. keeping up with him can be a time consuming, yet rewarding venture into sound

if there is one overall trend to spot in the wide fields of electronic music over the last years, it is the reversion to emotion. in a time where tracks are becoming more and more anonymous tools, melodies, references to pop music and recognition are seen as a design element and not as a blemish. to be honest, this recurrence was desperately needed, because music was always at best when feelings and not the mathematic of clicks were at the centre of attention. soda inc. reached this point of intersection already with their debut album >full moon< one and a half years ago. with intense anthems such as flight su 118 babak shayan and jon silva have created the deepest and most pictorial vision dub related techhouse had to offer to our hearts and souls. a solid basis to build up for the early summer of 2006....

next banging harder techno four tracker from our hungry cannibal cooking club !!!

the fission trips ep contains 4 tracks of disco techno excellence as usual with spirit catcher! the polished and classy sound which oozes out of these lovely belgian fellas has rightfully placed them amongst the premier league of contemporary electronic music producers.they divide their attentions between coveted labels such as freerange, silver network, rotax, 2020 vision and the mighty and unstoppable winding road recs.anyway less of our modesty. heres their new ep.

with >monuments<, the label manager pär grindvik returns with a perfctionist statement. after a period of heavy touring, he has isolated in his studio to concentrate on finding a missing link - something that would spark his curiosity, something that could make him feel complete.with monuments, he resurrects memories of the past sounds and rhythms and place them in our near future. from the dynamic dokument< floating point, to the melting pot of >mnemonic<. he feeds us snares and shuffle we haven t heard for ages

hats off to kinky vinyl for ferreting out this super large slab of peak time house action. it certainly sounds like nothing else in our boxes at the moment and is guaranteed to have an army of >spotters< rushing to the decks as it explodes from the speakers!

already played by richie hawtin, karotte, sven väth and magda! tattoorecs is label with a very simple concept. the tracks released dont have titles, they have tattoos. tattoos are the ultimate dedication of love. wether its a name, a symbol or a number tattoos are there because they are important to the owner. they dont have to be beautiful or elegant, and they dont have a meaning to anyone but the owner. some people seek acceptance and follow the mainstream with their body art. some people push the limit and reinvent what a tattoo can be some people stay true, and go old school with their tattoos thats why tattoos and music are so alike. these tracks are a part of us. we have created them with our hearts. .

mark ernestus, one half of the basic channel, maurizio and rhythm & sound teams, inaugurates our series of reworkings of tracks from tony allens lagos no shaking album. marks mix is not a nowadays style remix, more an extended mix in the classical tradition headed by tom moulton, back in the days when francois kevorkian was his teaboy, and there was a cupboard in his office stuffed with studio one master tapes. marks disco dub is its dub

applegarden is a strange duo from rotterdam making a weird kind of electronic funk. we had these tracks lying around in the office for at least 2 years...and we couldn t get them out of our system.. so something must be right!. twentyfive 6 four and armaggedon are the two original cuts on this release...and they are just a lot of fun. the finnish wonderboys of putsch 79 made the official club version of >twentyfive 6 four<. they turned the loose original version in a thight and sharp club monster that works on everydance floor. probably their most uptempo dancefloor orientated remix they ever did. allready got played by several influential dj s

no more words to add on moguai s special fingerprint, so let s go on to our auspicious remixers who have their very own views of sensation white: at first famous lady monika kruse vests the hook with some fly percussions and smart sidesteps. the continuous forward mood of her interpretation is so intoxicating, you don t want it to stop. time is also an important factor on karotte s sophisticated remix, created together with the boys from einmusik (jittery heritage). lightings up the fire over nearly 10 minutes, he comes up to even melt the strongest ice

after to have we lived abstemiously almost half a year and collected our strengths newly comes >hands on< as the new electro (baby) from the home of no one on the turntables. on the second release of no one, the boys take the charme of the spanish singer cicile vernandes and the distinctive sound of firm and warm basslines. finally the e.p. became a special remix of the >magdeburger< karateclub gurus dj oscar. he gives the track a minimal frisky sound to burn and whirl the dancefloor. well proven at the hessentag-clubnight! floorfiller

an exciting part of the current swedish house revolution has joined the burrito roster for the 8th release. david ekenbäck, who s recorded with john dahlbäck as the awesome beckster production team & who came to our attention through his wicked jackmoves label, gives us a corking tech/electro/house hybrid

we were dreaming about rimini and italo boot mixes, when we met this mad professor of italectro in a sleazy berlin neukölln pizza spot. he saved our day with a pearl of a dancefloor sunset. italectro - that´s a smart thing to say and that´s what we wanted. a funky italian 12inch. then tetsuo came and deliverd a nu wave prada dressed remix and added a heartbreak story. so at last frank martiniq was the boxer we needed to punch this track to a cologne style brutzel disco stomp that takes us back to reality

florian meindl, aged 20 seems to be a new genius from a small town, called eferding in austria. by the age of sweet 14, he started to turn the decks. very soon he became a professional and played already with ricardo villalobos and monika kruse. florian had his debut on balkon rec. he is also know from our <talente mit stil> compilation. oliver koletzki has always a meindl track in his charts and dj-sets suggesting this boy to be the newcomer 2006. florians three tracks make our ears smile, because of their amazing sounddesign and composition. >sputnik<, get supported by kiki, jona, gregor trasher, martin eyerer, benno blome (sender)

proven.....timeless dancefloor detroit tinged techno is what sino is all about. the delivery of electronic impulses that stir a given dancefloor into a swirl of explosive action is our continuous pursuit!

a journey into a deep,groovy and hypnotic mode which is about to go straight to our hips (and our hearts). definitely one of his most beautiful projects to date.

on the a side, step back is an ultra fat minimal tune with both old school housy sounds and strong techno beat. the dark male vocal repeating step back won t leave your head for hours. on the flip side, bastien grine goes deeper on a mental trip. a fat bass line surrounded by clear floating sounds. he plays with stereo effects and we loose our mind … pure madness

ultraphta detroit - techhouse - techno album mit dem donna -summer- remake- Überhit >>our luv<< !!!

legendary series to be continued with 2 acts from the uk. first >cool cuts< releases have been much in demand, and peeps are still trying to get hold of them - if you are lucky! a side is a brilliant track by the b-siderz - in the vein of some more proper house sounding stuff with nice sublime guitars struggling their way thru 2 big breaks complemented with an pushing b line and sophisticated acid sounds in between. other side is our beloved ma saski from manchester with an already massive electro tinged primetime stomper. the guys from the >tribal gathering< camp play around with some b lines emphasising those little but most effectual breaks through a wicked male poetry. mind you, that tune goes on and on without getting lame - dj linus always starts his sets with that tune - big!

a mountain of one have revisited the 70s and 80s in order to plunder not the back catalogue of disco or punk but the sounds of talk talk fleetwood mac mike oldfield & the the

avida perfectly fit in with a kind of underground music that was getting all the rage in italy in those days: nonsense music (musica demenziale). the structures were intentionally primitive, often made on cheap electronics. maurizio damis vocals , inspired on early 60s italian singers (to carry on and close the typical 20 years cycle of revivals), such as edoardo vianello, had an appealing mix of trash and humour. avida was essen tially a live band. their performances were a mix of theatre and music, where visuals played a major role. anyway, today some of that music still sounds interesting and not only due to its lyric. in our opinion about the best music alexander robotnik ever made

4 track ep sounds like detroit & technasia tracks. the 1st sound architecture release is having great reactions and is being played by an impressive list of more deejays such as laurent garnier, sven väth, pascal feos, funk d void, king britt, charles siegling aka technasia and john thomas ...

the original allez allez track dates from 1982 (!). the belgian funky new wave band was very successful during those early eighties days, but this was without a doubt their biggest tune. our norwegian homies lindstroem & prins thomas took care of the remix on the flipside. northern quality as usual!

revolver canada is proud to release the debut first 12 of our first american signing, north carolinas james thomason.. james sound is filled to the brim with soul and sophistication.. straddling the fine line between minimal techno and deep house !!

spilo now presents the first taste of the upcoming cd-compilation, cave vs ortin cam live!! our double liveact recorded in ljubljana slovenia december 24th 2005 !

our nice 2 guys are here in a collaboration with alex krüger aka tigerskin on something we would call >minimal rave< !!

here s a limited test press of a mysterious tune that fell right into our hands. a fine club stomper based on an obvious familiar theme (one vision from >fm s < band >q+++n< with a big room electro appeal. >one< already got good reactions and plays from the tune brothers, boogie pimps, tom novy, boris dlugosch, azzido da bass or markus gardeweg. so be ready to get into that line.

mia casa and java flava are two minimal trippy electro house bombs to loose your head for both the tracks are getting heavy support from the whole mantra dj crew and selected tastemakers like our current hero oliver koletzki

nice price deal !!! inc. rmxs by snax & electronicat >jealousy< chants miss le bomb. >jealous - ee - hee - hee<. this is a message to all the ladies and laddies out there...don t copycat or you know what you ll get. a nasty euro-trance bash right in the middle of your forehead. with this first solo release, catriona shaw aka miss le bomb shows she s really a disco power-pop diva whose talent and taste knows no boundaries. a pinch of vice, spice and rotten mice, finished up with a good old thrust of our favourite orchestra hit and out comes a pounding and soulful dance-floor sequel to c&c music factory s >gonna make you sweat<. big with: nd baumecker, trevor jackson, daniel wang, boris, ata and many others
