with the sun out and festival season just around the corner, the 2 bears return with their biggest crowd pleasers yet on the bear hug ep out on southern fried. equipped for both barmy afternoons in blissed-out fields and after hours naughtiness in the darkest dance tents, the 2 bears set the seal on their trademark brand of house revisionism. opening up with take a look around, 2 bears take us from techy intro to full on house inclusivity inside seven minutes, with rafs understated vocals joined by star-to-be alice gold. then there is the bashy jump-up instrumental in my brain is like a computer, to set us up for an mc’d walk through of the 2 bears dancefloor doctrine, bear hug. as for the ep closer banger, the title speaks for itself – a tune that cuts deeper and harder than any 2 bears track so far

house is the cure return with part 3 of the we get by series. featuring tracks by andre lodemann, iron cutris, kink and ethyl & flori. large!

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.

foliage records return with yet another addition to their abundance of remarkable releases in 2011. encompassing the production prowess of none other than rocco and c. robert walker, foliage records offers a decadent aural exploration in the form of i love the night, underpinned by atjazz and raw artistic soul, offering their own musical reincarnation.

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!<

the 100th release from synewave records continues after the great success from part 1, the final round gets special treatments by terence fixmer (electric deluxe, international deejay gigolo, jupiter ),dave ellesmere (kanzlermant, 100% pure, intacto), & italy’s ascion (drumcode, 8 sided dice). to properly complete this release, the original classic has been specially remastered and added. already having support and play from adam beyer, the advent, joseph capriotti, richie hawtin, gayle san, chris liebing, adam x, dj submerge, and many others.

twisted tongue follow up their acclaimed debut album with the first single from their follow-up lp, >a return to space<. eschewing the p-funk stylings of their self-titled debut, twisted tongue (dave jay & mark dalton) provide an essential revival of the mid-tempo soul stepper, featuring guest vocalist johanna lee sweetly leading a tough, incessant groove that recalls the classic likes of nick martinelli and the mizell brothers. twisting the track even further are the remixes provided by dj ray mang (dfa, mangled), one of the founders of londons nu-disco scene, who has long taken inspiration from new yorks golden era of the loft and paradise garage. twisted tongue writer/producer dave jay joined forces with ray for his >mang vs. mondo< ep on mangled earlier this year, and here mang returns the favour by dubbing out and extending >a return to space< to mind-bending effect. on the flipside is the cinematic, downtempo remix by blue states, which subtly subverts the original, transforming the track into a late night indie excursion. andy dragazis (blue states) has now been delivering his unique brand of melancholy, guitar-led head music for over decade, via labels such as xl recordings, and this mix of >a return to space< ranks up there with his most memorable work

the seventh release on dva records comes from a young, unknown resident of manchester named gugu. staying true to the dva style, his two tracks are fine examples of todays hybrid funky house scene, maintaing the 4 to the floor drum patterns whilst drawing on a wide range influencesà and as it suggests in the epÆs title, is packed full of cuban flava. straight up music designed to make people dance. it wouldnÆt be right to get a dva release without a feature from the man himself, rinse fmÆs grimey breakfast show host mr scratcha dva. as a slight deviation from the norm û and in a way a return to the styles his earlier production û dva lays down a heavyweight slice of synth laden half step, defiantely one to pull your dirty face too. check it out and get back to us with your thoughts.

the subdivision return home to paradise lost with the open your eyes ep: epic vibes, hypnotic bass work, and complex programming manifest themselves as what might be considered their best work to date, and surely a production which defines their unique style for building cinematic tracks of epic proportions. the structure is trademark tsd: a beautifully drawn-out breakdown compliments the progressively building tension, leading to a thunderous climax toward the end. this tune is more of a journey than simply a dj tool (although its a treat to mix with), and djs such as bunzer0, djunya, 501 and claw have used it to devastating effect in the mix.

the time and space machine return with the third in their series of highly acclaimed, mind bending psychedelic edits. freakbeat anthems meet hypnotic ragas and swirling phazers, while cosmic cowboys ride off into a day glo sunset. vinyl only, strictly limited as ever, housed in a beautiful luke insect sleeve. the >time and space machine volume three< is a psych lovers technicolour dreamcoat.

2010 repress ! paul ritch and his quartz music label return with a very special treat! the first release on quartz was pauls own >split ep<. the response to the music on this ep was incredible. not only from specialists, but also from the public. how do you improve on the package? well, draft in one of the biggest names in world of techno to not only provide a remix, but take the two biggest tracks from the release, combine them, and remix the mutant off-spring. indeed! this is just what dubfire has done. taking >walk the line< and >split<, melting them together, and then reworking them to provide what will, from now, and forever more, be known as.... the >split the line - dubfire mega remix.< 2008 proved to be a wonderful year for dubfire. his releases and remixes filled the top spots in many end of year charts. no more than they deserved. his >dios< & >diablo< tracks alongside oiiver huntemann were instant smashes, and his remixes took him to a whole new level. radio slaves >grindhouse<, minologues >jamaica<, gregor treshers >a thousand nights< & booka shades >charlotte< all received the dubfire treatment, and all, went on to be smash hits. 2009 is set to be even bigger and better for everyone involved in this e.p.. is that possible? just watch this space!

nice price deal !!! as 2010 draws to a close, low res records makes one last shot at the buzzer with a veritable milestone of mayhem - the 23rd enigma in the shape of a new and long overdue dj adjust record. >release the sharks< is four tracks of abusive speaker therapy constructed in the spirit of recreational headbanging most would call haptic technology for heshers. possessing the demonstrative power of potential that pokes at the ear pupils, the new adjust record is a leaning tower of rhythmic inconsequentials that cast a dark shadow over the deliberate composition of controlled chaos.

repress in black vinyl !!! r&s records return with another exciting young talent. space dimension controller has already caused a fuss on the underground with his >love quadrant< (kinnego) and >journey to the unknown sphere< (royal oak) releases. the temporary thrillz ep contains intergalactic slow jams, deep club excursions and mid tempo space funk, all with the sdc trademark depth, soul and finesse. this is another release that will cement sdc as one of the best and most talked about young producers of the year.

a welcome return for jaime read who has been releasing quality deep house and techno since the mid 90s via his own push ii shove label, tenth planet, fragmented and ugly music. here he drops a timeless ep of house and techno rythims to great effect. messages from outer space is a deep slice of timeless 808 driven electro soul. name no names moves along with spaced out keys and a sax line reverbed to great effect. no relief has that old school chicago house sound with piano stabs and a lush string breakdown. digital acid wraps it up sounding much like the title suggests with deep 808 bass and floor smashing snares

the revenge return to hometaping to expertly rework their debut release on the label. the awesome >forever in their debt< got props and heavy rotation on a variety of floors, so its time for round two ! a duo of seriously dancefloor friendly versions, the first >pitched down mix< fuses the early house-inspired vibes of the original version with a slo mo jacking disco feel that will work for disco divas and househeads alike. this version featured on his recent resident advisor dj mix and its release has been heavily anticipated. while on the flip things hit an all together more carl craig inspired deep warehouse vibe that will definitely move your body. two top workouts that will rule the floor! press play and feel the rhythms!

return to form (take that, haters!) hits at the body repeatedly, slamming away with a lack of abandon and a new sense of protocol. major stars are known for being psychedelic rock journeymen (and journey lovin women), but of late, their rocks psych roots seem to be dyed platinum white, with a truckers cap shoved on top of the whole mess. its jukebox ready hard rock with a hallucinogenic edge, sure ? or perhaps its just the impact of their triple guitar git down, causing your head to throb with concussive force? dont worry, long time star children ? these guys still jam, but they ve got short numbers too, and wailing, roadhouse vocals sailing over the punch ups. a terrific variety, but a return to form? pffft! what form? these guys have been in plasma state forever! whatever form it takes, thats what it is. and major stars are presently shining on in white dwarf style ? compacted, but with a violent gleam.

men in trees are back with their third ep on its own platform audio parish. this time they take us with a healthy portion of groove to mango city. once there, we meet barfly, this track draws us immediately into its spell with its deep character and hypnotic groove and the insane vocal part in the break. this give us finally the feel we are actually in a smoky bar in the middle of mango city. this is an amazing super warm and rollin piece of house music. alabasta on the flip, with its bright and massive sounds, is a dry forward rolling peak-time-mover. this track is jaunty fun that will get the crowd moving for sure. return to mango city is the next killer release with the typical men in trees-groove, two different house tracks, which will provide a lot of dancefloor action.
