hailing from beautiful rio de janeiro, you might not expect an artist who is dedicated to old school roland drumcomputers and bassline machines. betek clearly has a big love for the edm past, but takes it well into the new millennium with a fresh angle.
you can expect more of betek this year!

here at bearfunk hq we firmly believe in perseverance. we keep asking questions until we get the right answer and with 6ft bear by our side the answer is usually yes. we kept asking ilija rudman to get in the studio and write us a killer lp but being the busy bee that he is it was hard for him to take the time out. we kept asking until he eventually caved in and went underground to record his first lp, >the reveal<. ilija is a devoted and passionate man when it comes to music. one of his prerequisites for recording an lp was that the recordings had to be made with the same techniques and equipment that inspired him to make music in the first place. so ilija hooked up with one of his studio mentors and got his dream line-up of synthesizers, roland jupiter 4 & 8, minimoog, roland sh2, juno 60 and his dream drum machines linn and oberheim dmx. these analogue machines fire up to create a warm and authentic vibe across the whole lp. we are reminded here that machines do have soul if used properly. we start proceedings with the wigged out boogie of >inspectors drive< which might be a little nod in the direction of wally badarous classic chief in< have all the ingredients of dj friendly hits. the lp reveals all the influences that ilija has experienced and it shows the talent that runs inside him as he is able to make such an amazingly retro lp sound like something from the future. we are sure in years to come this lp could become as important as the influences that inspired mr. rudman to make it.

japanese stay up forever representative k.n. shows the mastery of his ability to get some seriously strange and bewitching sounds from the roland tb 303 to create two must have tracks for any truly underground dance floor.

art-nr2 is the third release in art records remaster series following on from carl craigs >psyche/bfc< and kirk degiorgios >nairobi ep<. promenade eleven lives up to the billing of those illustrious predecessors, being a reverse-engineered remake of >night on the promenade< which originally appeared in limited quantities on the new religion label in 2006 under the name >super-a-loof<.
labelled at the time as a successor to classic techno tracks such as derrick mays >the beginning< and rolandos >knights of the jaguar<, this re-make will finally bring it to the wider audience it deserves via the art label.
promenade eleven (original mix) adheres faithfully to the original arrangement but has been re-recorded and totally remixed from the ground-up for a modern club sound.

rare 80s recording from the glorious mutant disco archives, reportedly recorded on earth and now freshly revamped by a secret detroit-cologne connection to sharp blasted musical encounters of the third kind. not as discoid as you might expect, this strictly limited (150 copies) mystical formula of mutant electronica and twisted technoid funk mixes up todays club floor reality with shock tactics and says fu** off! to any smash hit attitude that covers round the corner. the >twilite clone< is 100% pure catchy if derived electronic street funk that hits the roads for sure uncontrollably strange and highly danceable on the cutting edge of techno, house and dubstep.

the legendary skatalites, alongside the later studio one in-house bands - the soul vendors, sound dimension, soul defenders and brentford road all stars ? were as much a part of the classic studio one sound as were the singers that they accompanied such as alton ellis, horace andy, marcia griffiths and bob marley and the wailers. this album features many of the musicians involved with studio one who literally defined reggae music. from the skatalites members tommy mccook, roland alphonso, jackie mittoo to killer sidemen such as trombonist vin gordon (a/k/a don drummond jnr), saxophonist cedric im brooks, keyboardist and twelve tribes of israel member pablove black. many of the rhythms that these musicians created became the back-bone of the jamaican musical world and their songs have been replayed and re-versioned by 1000s of reggae producers ever-since. the album features classic and super-rare tracks all recorded under clement ?sir coxsoneÊ doddÊs supervision at the legendary recording studio and record label. as well as sixteen killer tracks the album comes with new sleevenotes and photography by dennis morris and adrian boot making this another essential studio one reggae release for connoisseurs of reggae and newcomers alike.

since the release of his debut >hyph mngo< that swept the global dance music world in 2009, british producer peter o grady (aka orbison) makes his return on hotflush recordings as joy o in 2011. these two productions take a more straightforward approach, toeing along the lines of classic house music, infused with this talented producers own signature style, weaving rolling acidic basslines in >wade in< and uplifting melodies in >jels< and over shuffling roland drums and blissful atmospherics....

orlando voorns original of >unpredictable love< is an great melodic and soulful detroit techno track. the remix on the flip is the interpretation of the analog roland orchestra, who impressed us again with his remarkable musicianship and soundwork. it remains only to say: deep, soulful and timeless.

its an album, its deep, its acid, its fragile, its party, its lonely, its all together, its music itself, its special, its rvds with his >moments<. after the ep >waiting, kiss and love< comes the album now. inspired by classic deep and acid house. good to listen to these old instruments: tr-808, roland jp-6, wurlitzer e-piano and some other specials combined with new accents, but always a love to detroit music.

if it is about contemporary house music, there is no way of avoiding the northern djs & producers. first and foremost with roberto rodriguez aka manolo, who has shaped his personal funk infected old-school vibe over the last years and helped the house revive without forgetting from where it came from. his future beat investigators strictly followed the detroit heritage and his acid kings membership gave us lust for the roland tb 303 again. the bermuda project came back to cosmic again and had more than an impact on the nu disco styles. it is his pertinent mix of soulful, funky & functional dancefloor and his his effective productions who convinced the tastemakers worldwide and prepared his ground for top notch releases on labels like compost, 2020vision, freerange or delusions of grandeur and remixes for acts like yoko ono, tigerstripes, jay shepheard, the timewriter, marmion, crazy p, bellringers or vanessa daou. now the time has come for his own platform called serenades, featuring the manolesque ep - for those who like it deep, down & funky!

alba with their first full 12 inch release. the triumvirate of roland sebastian faber, keen k and label owner michael künzer is a team that has been delivering the goods on labels such as clone, das drehmoment and viewlexx. this first alba release, created from three different cities, by three guys contains three tracks! three is the magic number, delasoul once said! strong 12 inch that comes on heavy weight 180gr vinyl, great artwork and a limited run that will be gone as fast as the pervious aube releases. a true gem!

following on from his studio 395 ep that heralded the support of zip, oliver deutschmann, baby ford, rolando & ben sims to name a few, ed returns with another satisfying 2 tracker. centrality is a strong, peak time techno track that features raw 909 percussion paired with an infectious synth riff & haunting house vocals finishing on a transmat style synth solo, the kind of track that stays in your head for hours if not days after you ve left the nightclub. b side spirits incorporates the same distinguished groove of centrality but opens the possibilities up tenfold inviting plays on both house & techno dance floors equally suited to night & day

inspired by the stripped back technical set-ups of yesteryear, mike monday and will saul present the sequence 1 ep, the product of the two artists limiting themselves to a roland 909, a korg kaos pad, a dave smith polyevolver and recording their jamming on the fly. >we wanted to inject some excitement, energy and randomness into this release, so decided to play the tracks live with mike on the 909 and keys and will on filters and effects. we had a broad idea of where we were going before we pressed record, and recorded a few takes of each track, then took the best moments from each. the big challenge was reining in the slightly chaotic recordings, but after some tweaking we found a balance between old school rawness and modern production values.<

2003 release by dj carrera aka paul brtschitsch and roland leesker.

charlton ravenberg is the dutch artist who signs the 4th great m_rec ltds vinyl. in this ep he has 4 tracks where he shows his full potential. in tracks such as >basterd< and >slow down< creates trip slow and hypnotic. in tracks like >backwards< and >forwards< trips are a little more techno with detroit school influences. its a release that will sure know more about the label and the artist for its modernity and its substance. big!

big with: basic soul unit, ame, ingo sõnger, oliver hafenbauer, dixon, sevensol, dirk rumpf,roland appel,.. back from the initial mild pitch release >this feeling< last year, ribn deliver their overdue follow-up entitled >light black ep< - three tracks as ambivalent as the title suggests! the title track is a mesmerizing house/technohybrid of colourful darkness, reminiscent of classic early ribn releases: meandering synths and hypnotic sound fragments crawl around a stomping beat while the crunchy bass loop keeps moving things forward irresistably. first up on the flip side is >sin & figs<, a warm and pathetic summer gem that is destined to soundtrack any sunrise over the next couple of months. rich layer textures and sweet little melodies make this piece one of the most emotional moments of the mild pitch catalogue to date. closing the ep on b2 is >stonedrum<, a slow-motion house treat with oddly pitched vocals, a subtle groove and heavy low-end. its masked and fragile funkyness and crackling background noises complete a complex image that requires more attention than a 30-seconds preview clip to get a clue..

the berlin-based dj and producer eva be is no newcomer to the international dance-music scene. 2 years ago she released her long-player >moving without travelling< on bestseven / sonar kollektiv records creating her very own trademark dub-influenced electronic sound. this ep is the logical continuation of her musical output as she has been djing quite a heavy 4/4 sound in the last years playing alongside best works records djs andre lodemann, roland appel and alex barck of jazzanova in places such as goa/madrid, cookies/berlin, dampfzentrale/bern, etc.
>new crack< combines an electronic dub driven bass sound with classic old-school house influences - dancefloor business. darko essers mix is more intrecate giving the orginal a more dramatic crystalline twist. last but not least andre lodemanns previously unreleased remix of eva bes tune >she walks alone< sees the light.

>general motors, detroit, america< is the first offering to emerge from the mysterious parisian dance duo, acid washed. the influence of chicago and detroit techno lingers on the backseat in this six-minute joy-ride of sprawling atmospheric electronica. on the flipside, snake amply showcases a different, more collaborative side to acid washed. berlin based newcomer, barbara panther, catches the eye with a sultry vocal performance with a sting in the tail. equally adept at providing softness, her dynamism shimmers alongside the deft production. as per usual, record makers have assembled a stellar remix package. put in the hands of blackstrobe, the measured quality of general motors, detroit, america finds itself infused with a tension that thrills and flickers with a brooding energy that belongs on the dancefloor. gavin russom (dfa) calms the restless pulse at the heart of snake, evoking the aztec spirit of dj rolando before overdrawn arpeggiated solos are used to disrupt with pleasing effect.

drums have been discovered in almost every part of the world. drums first appeared, however, in excavation from the neolithic era. the oldest recorded drum is from 6000 bc. mesopotamian ruins contain small cylindrical drums that are as old as 3000 bc. egyptian tombs have yielded small drums used for ceremonies. several caves in peru contain wall markings depicting drums in various aspects of societal life. it is strongly suspected that indian drums from the middle east are as old as 5000 bc. the american indians used a series of wood and gourd drums for their celebrations and some of these drums are still used in ceremonies today. drums were not always used for music. in africa, where music is simply an interpretation of everyday life in sound, drums were used as speech. simply a pattern of beats played in a certain way could communicate vast amounts of information. jeff mills creates the drummer (pm-022). 6 track 12 vinyl ep. mills communicates through only a classic roland tr-808 drum machine, exclusively made for the purpose maker/axis. each track dedicated for the masters of the art form of drumming like: neil peart, billy cobham, buddy rich and others, mills explores how drum patterns and rhythms remain communicative on a higher level that has endured through evolution of humanity.
