like a proper immigrant family enjoying the life of culturally greener pastures, the vakant family continues to grow in berlin. closely following the exponential trend of mergers and acquisitions in the multi national corpo borg, vakant heavy industries signs the third in a series of new talent to the team. berlins dewalta a.k.a. david koch, long time friend of vakant, has completed assimilation into the freaky fold. a side salgaro is about as obese as a track can get. its happy, its huge, its pan ethnic, its sensitive, its irreverent. its so good it was immediately used for onur ozers up coming club dj mix cd. on the aa side farina lives. its freakier, its smoother, its quirkier, its cup runs massively over. we are talking insulin shock plump. we cant even identify which genres it spans. it sounds like the amalgamation of everything currently succulent and lots more that will be

with their new album in the bag and slated for release this september, and a wealth of festival appearances on the horizon for the coming months, metronomy drop new single >>holiday<< this july. lyrically, it may be a humourous spotlight on fairly commonplace relationship-induced tensions, but sonically, >>holiday<< flies the flag for the darker, disenchanted elements of metronomys new long player.

classic doors album from 1971.

first single from the forthcoming album called >toinen< from sasse comes in the form of 2 long, evolving, pulsing deep tracks which bring the finn back into his rootz of house music. big with alex kid, agoria, danny howells, steve bug, mathias kaden, kiki, garnier, jimpster and many many more

daniel mehlhart steps up to the plate for kindischs seventeenth release, origami - an exquisitely deep, languid house jam laced with strung-out, processed spanish guitar and gently euphoric xylophone arpeggios. >origami< is languid, yes, but not exactly laid-back: its held up and propelled forward by a gently vibrating lattice of kickdrum and snare hits, through which a dubby, molten bassline and taut, time-keeping chords dreamily but determinedly flow. the perfect soundtrack to the mixed pace of summers long days and even longer nights. mehlhart harks back to his acclaimed past releases on karmarouge and neutonmusic for >alles klar alles easy<, which sees brushed drum and shaker sounds edited into a quietly explosive techno work-out with serious swing. >fata morgana< begins in a more linear, four-to-the-floor style, but those percussive flourishes quickly accrue into something more strange, and then out of the ether comes an entrancing, south american-style chorus line. the voices mingle imperceptibly with woodblock strikes and caustic snares, injecting the techno dna >fata morgana< with a sick and psychedelic voodoo funk. with this 12inch kindisch once again proves itself to be a preeminent stable for experimental, expressive dancefloor music, and daniel mehlhart affirms his status as one of our most daring and capable producers

if youre looking for the definitive compilation of birmingham techno, and a cross section of downwards early contributions to the worldwide techno and minimal scene, then look no further. including early surgeon classics electric chicken and argon (both favourites with jeff mills, dave clarke and countless others, and long deleted) as well as regiss massive ital, not to mention groundbreaking minimal masterpieces from female, this is top quality gear from beginning to end. available on an initial limited clear vinyl pressing, and fully re mastered by the ridiculously talented matt colton at alchemy studios, these tracks laid the groundwork for a generation of techno producers.

karolin müller is the first female artist in the hi freaks family and blinky is her long awaited first release. blinky starts with a subversive retro groove, the loop is driven by a flanged hihat and ends up in a funny, funky break, where the theme hits the track and pushes it too the next level. our swedish pac man agaric eats >blinky< alive and gives him a very rough and hypnotic treatment with his remix on the b-side. snake, rattle n roll: the title is just perfect to caracterise this track, imagine a snake winding through a synthesiser modulating itsself over and over again, sounds weired... thats what it is ... a great uncommon halucinating track…

long and sleepless nights were the inspiration for slaapgebrek wich means sleep deprivation in dutch. the results of these sessions are two moody & hallucinogenic tracks, wich represent a state of mind only to be experienced after many restless nights. the original mix with its freaked out shuffled drumpatterns, rave stabs and maximal modulated bassline is peaktime dancefloor fudder for any crazed techno night. frustrated bleeps and fx give it a nervous twilight zone like feel, climaxing and clashing throughout the track. the flipside takes things on a lighter, more emotion ridden tip. the rhythm is stripped down of all nastiness and the bassline friendlier and melodic. halfway through the break the violins kick in, resembling the break of dawn after another night of turning and twisting without getting any much deserved rest. perfect afterhour material.

to celebrate the release of the debut long player of 30hz & baobingas the body snatchers album, the guys at passenger have decided to add to the album the 3 (three) music videos that were created for the previous singles (big ass, miniskirt/freaky ho/call me) which have generated a collective viewing of over a quarter of a million hits on youtube!

songs from the source is a lost and found 1973 recording of the source family. these twelve songs were recorded live in the hollywood hills as a rehearsal for a concert date that spirit of 76 - aka yahowah 13, the savage sons of yahowa, yodship, and firewaterair, now known as children of the sixth root race - had at the whisky. a 1/4 tape copy of the recording was found in chicago in 2006, though no one is really sure how it got there. djin aquarian, rhythm guitarist and songwriter for spirit of 76, recalls being sent on a mission to chicago later in 1973, where he believes he left the tape with an old friend. djin wrote most of the songs in the year before he joined with the source, as part of his solo mystical quest to help enlighten the world before it might annihilate itself, adding, im glad both the album and the world are still here.though this rehearsal wasnt meant to be released at the time, there are probably no other recordings as complete of the band doing these songs. the spirit of 76 had a different sound than the one yahowah 13 made with yahowa. songs from the source has more r n b grooved energy, with splashes of synth and organ, a female vocal chorus and streamlined fusion rhythms backing the uniquely yahowan lyrical populism of songs like godmen and lost dead but hoping. songs from the source is a miraculous missing piece of the sources positive musical movement. the members of yahowah 13 (djin, sunflower on bass, octavius on drums) were joined by family members ahom, aquariana, cinderella, rhythm, vibration, and zoroaster on lead guitar, to create the ecstatic sound of spirit of 76.

to celebrate the release of the motion picture robocop in russian theaters this spring (russian version robotkop!), turbo presents the latest masterpiece by everyones favorite muscovite prodigy proxy: 40 seconds / dance in dark. dance in dark, long supported by the usual suspects (ebnt2mdjtc) samples quirky icelandic singer djork to devastating effect, while 40 seconds tears a page from global headlines with its scathing indictment of police brutality and government corruption. 2008 will also see the release of proxys debut album, so everyone get on board now before we stop taking passengers on the trans-cyberian express.
