freska already released his first ep on oliver koletzki s fabulous label >stil vor talent<. his sound goes deep under your skin and draws perfect pictures in your mind. take a deep breath, it will surround you intimately. the remixes are picture perfect too. freska is one of the newest artist’s on karateklub, but there s another. before he will appear with his on ep here, he just remixed >reflections< and showed his magnificent way of interpreting electronic music. on the other hand, we have our rising homeacts - super flu, with a just as excellently remix. elicious!

number 25… time to do something special again. therefore we compiled four tracks by artists from our mo s ferry pool on this 12inch. the opening track is >nowhere in kansas< by featured with awesome vocals by abe chapman. after this we have tanaka hideyuki s >let me see< which was released on marcel knopf s -bits to phono mix- cd first. finally, we cut the track on vinyl. the other side is >kick< ed by his fellow countryman hidenobu ito, who debuted for us on fenou03. the mini compilation is concluded by label owner dapayk solo himself with a previously unreleased track named >cleansea<. for the occasion we decided to put the record in a unique stamped cover artwork. it s good to have a touchable medium like vinyl, that offers such a potential..

ripperton released amazing records on famous labels like planet e, wagon repair. for our last release on connaisseur in 2006, he saved two outstanding tunes. >tainted words< is a killer club hymn combining two mesmerizing parts. >tainted words (plasmik rmx)< is deeper than the mariana trench. plasmik, our new boy wonders from berlin, grab the outstanding original, vivisect it and recompose it into a deep underwater journey. a must for lovers of deep detroitish cuts. >farra< is far more than a track. ripperton specially dedicated this one to his family and his closest circle of friends. a very personal and pleasant soundtrip, more a song than a track – a short emotional story teller

support coming in from ricardo villalobos, damian lazarus, anja schneider, james priestly, davide squillace, fafa, tiefschwarz... fast forward a few years and tom & jay find themselves in front of a computer with not much goin on in the outside world. >shall we try & make a track then?< said thomas charles king. >why yes< was the reply from mr massive. and that was that... locked away in jay s bedroom for the weekend they came up with their first ever tune, indeed… >our first time<...

a ground breaking 3 tracks ep that we re not less then proud to present you. kemistrycian is a wonder tune,based on twistery and magically well balanced clever programming that as an obvious goal, to make you move. back 2 basics has a shaking and grooving start, percussive elements from beyond our universe, panned along sounds for your modern listening experience. patch for dogs is a dubbed out track that just never stops. and it sure grooves, like the whole ep.

after the success of the first tattoorec release with massive support from such djs as richie hawtin, luciano, tiefschwarz, sven väth and magda, here is another set of beautiful tattoos. three. is a melodic and uplifting tattoo. wait for the melody, and you will feel. this side features a beautifull tattoo of a greek goddess. four. is bare boned minimal funk tattoo. wait for the break, and you will see. this side is our friends signature tattoo. it says halløjsa (meens hallöchen in german, or a very cheeky hello in english)

played: steve bug, djulz, a. schneider, jay haze, dan curtin – huge hit ! moon harbour has good news for you: a new artist joining our family – welcome samim! after big success with his projects >samim & michal< and >fuckpony< (together with jay haze) he debuts on moon harbour with his 3-track-ep. the bass line of -eco- (b1) paces through deep frequencies as samim throws in sharpedged snares, wistful dub-synths and an elusive vocalsample: this track is so catchy that it deserves the rare honour of a long b-side – its strong vibe just would have swallowed up any other tune accompanying it. skks (a1) will get you from a different point of view: forget about dub and minimalism, this one is a rhythmical display of fireworks. samim goes in for the full, tictac go the claps and vocal-samples jeer and jiggle everywhere. this track got guts, man!..

""highgrade is back with another smash by our heroes phage & daniel dreier, a crew having an enormous flow at the moment, be it on the wheels of steel, as an explosive live act or on vinyl.they submitted us three more minimal trax out of their dark chambers, dry as hell, hypnotic and psychedelic, but with such an outburst of creativity and flexibility you just can`t categorize these trax. we are pretty sure this trax will validate some floors on their stableness; file under hypnphouse and keep the damn frequency high!.""

taken from the tribute to robert moog album. an amazing track from bangkok impact (probably our favorite on the album). great building disco track in the vein of lindstrom. plus a rocking uptempo pieve by lowfish (cocoon/ghostly). plus a massive uptempo model 500 kind of techno/electro track by luke eargoggle. three great tunes on one piece of vinyl! must!

rmxs by krikor, pep gaya & tomas jirku the eight reference from the klitekture catalogue presents a work from the founder of the label, lod, that comes with a good critics since >sabado gris<, the original composition from this maxi was nominated as best track at the qwartz awards in paris on march of 2006. there is no doubt that we find lod with sabado gris in a great creative moment that he uses to offer a singular and emotive track, that plays with the repetitions of certain structures as well as he does with our emotions, the subtile melodies bring a great amount of serenity to the good listener

adk aka andreas kremer delivers us under his softer pseudonym a great techno release with elements of techhouse, electro and minimal.. supported by carl cox, laurent garnier, sven vaeth and evil concussion

perspectiv records has a very distinct and specific vision : to give new producers and music makers an alternative opportunity for long-term self-expression. the sound of perspectiv is definitely electronic and atmospheric but most of all intelligent and very dancefloor orientated! the owners of perspectiv are raphaël ripperton & sam k. for our first release we are very pround to present the brilliant >connected ep< from young producer ndru a.k.a andre gansebohm. after his incredible >a pony named clipklop< on liebe*details, ndru is back with an amazing 3 track ep.

after the first single output on vice versa, his collaboration with staffan linzatti, kolombo is now ready for delivering chapter two. this time, without any co-pilot, he kicks our ass with >all this< and >this all<, which is kickin electro house at it s best! the half part of loulou players has already released records and remixes on labels like king kong records, strobe music, jackmoves and loulou records and has just finalized a brand new remix for the upcoming dj remo single >sabrina says<

at the moment we cant get enough of our favourite brasilian. on his new single gui goes to a little bit more minimal tech but his southamerican touch is still guaranteed.. techno toughness meets sexy hip action !!

do you like to dance tzatziki? can you feel the bass of kalamata olives? do you feel feta sometimes on the dancefloor? this are all questions our 2 doctors from athens can t answer you. the only answer they know is how to make the boopie shake. this is what they say. you need to proof? do it. boopie trap is a classical piece of malaka house music that will be reinterpreted by everybodys darling dario zenker from hometown munich and the so called boss popnebo himself. what else? their ghosts are also in da house. we hate to write about the music, because how do you want to say in words what the music should sound like? difficult. not really.

following in the footsteps of audikas cd reissue, arthur russells most extraordinary work, world of echo is reissued for the first time as a newly remastered limited edition double vinyl set. 18 tracks are featured including drumless versions of his disco classics lets go swimming, tree house and wax the van along with four previously unreleased tracks from sketches from world of echo. originally released in 1986, world of echo is a deeply intimate and meditative work of awe inspiring grace and remains a timeless work of sublime beauty. arthurs aim was to achieve what he calls the most vivid rhythmic reality, with just cello, voice, and echoes. arthur achieved all of this and more on one of the most incredible suite of songs ever recorded

dark and spooky. osvaldo steps up to the couldron with some mysterious rhythm trickery. please welcome our new vampire buddy osvaldo. he is not scary but funny and geeky. recording here from now on, you will know him as bruno pronsato that fly italian dude who has been rocking the scene! so here it is, a full ep of four cultured cuts to stoke your fires and increase vibes in general... support from shonky...

in the only cameo appearance here, london s jesse rose (dubsided) puts his chunky house signature on pan-pot s >black dog<. buy one get one for free ist our offer on side a. the pots & pans edit is a bit more reduced. its the typical jesse rose dub edit style. sebo k – >hori zons< exercise one s sleepless in san juan mix exercise one tackles sebo k s >hori zons< and del iver another functional rave anthem. the remix is mainly influenced by their legendary live gig at this years mobilee sonar party at raum. they started doin this remix at exercise one s private afterhour in the mobilee appartments at paseo san juan. ewan persons comment: >berlin s two brightest rising stars clash in mobilee s new remi x project. this is an absolute monster - probably the biggest dancefloor reaction to anything i m playing at the moment<

debut vinyl re-release from this liverpool based synth-pop band. catchy melodies with kraftwerk , gary numan & human league sensibilities. features >playgirl<

understanding is a beautiful harmonic song that states out a strong message. once again, most instruments played and arranged by the gifted musician robb scott.understanding gets the remix treatment by fellow jaymz nylon, who adds a hypnotic groovin´ feeling to the song. also on remix duties for understanding you ll find reel people crew who just recently making waves on the famous defected label. their club mix is definitly the dancefloor burner on this 12, deep pumpin house affair for prime time floors!and as a bonus you ll find another fine tune by our man robb scott which is exclusive to this 12 as complex as love shows again robb scotts passion for beautiful arrangements, very soulful and catchy

nomenklatur is formed by two djs & producers, olivier brucker and olivier rossi aka lab insect. throught their powerful live acts, they are delivering a strong fusion between gothic electro and smashing techno. this second ep of the french duo on elektrofon is as raw and no-bullshit as dancefloor electro-techno gets..

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

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

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!

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
