the in the box e.p. is a fine example of niedermeier & whiteheads no-nonsense style, combining melodic, muscular grooves with deep basses and balearic percussion, the e.p. is a slice of raw tech and deep house class. with a relentless funky beat, in the box pays homage to classic tech-house form whilst maintaining a tracky musical edge that highlights the pairs dj background. with their penchant for diversity, short fuse is something truly unique, quirky pads and filtered fx gives this track a deep house vibe whilst a smoky lead ensures the techy theme is maintained. tales of old has all the essences of modern deep techno, it rolls along with a straightforward beat and a clean unpretentious production flavour. the simple vocal stabs and smooth fx hits are driven along by a wonderfully deep timpani that shakes some air but never interferes with the warm, round sub bass pining the groove together. lastly is out of place, a deep grooving track with an aggressive manner. through a series of dynamic peaks and troughs, technoid percussion and funky vocal hits, this track provides an appropriate addition to this perfect release

laying low in the cut after the much lauded >recession vol.1< mix album and his wrily-titled futuristic crossover >euro dance hit<, caravan label head honcho julian smith aka october returns from deep studio retreat with possibly his best, certainly most forward thinking dance floor record to date. as always october takes a big slice of his inspiration from the detroit techno sound of the 80s and early 90s which is clearly evident on the second cut on this plate in particular. however you simply cannot ignore his perhaps more euro-centric dub tendencies and broken-beat rhythm principles that always inform his overall composition and production ethos.

columbian producer robert alzate a.k.a khomha, has been snapped up by us here at baroque... his seductive deep house is exactly the kind of sound we were looking for in 2010, and this first ep is perfect highlight of the deep throbbing, tech influenced house sounds that sucked is in. on the remix is incognet... denis zynchenko produced some great tracks under his incognet guise in 2009 and looks set to step it up again in 2010 - a powerfull driving slice of prog, that compliments the deeper original perfectly.

idle hands is a vinyl based label operating out of rooted records in bristol. the focus of the label is on raw and experimental dance floor tracks, in the best traditions of the uk underground. hanuman and atki2 make up monkeysteak, and along with dub boy run the steak house records label. over the past few years they have released 12&#8243,,s on the werk and punch drunk labels as well as recently featuring on toddla t’s fabric mix. here in the west country dub boy runs the bristol’s best bass music night, the acclaimed ruffnek diskotek and has recently been voted one of the cities favourite dj’s, second only to joker. this 12&#8243,, sees the crew delve into house music with satisfyingly bass heavy results. the a side is a chunky deep house track with a feel good carnival vibe. the b side is a unique slice of post-soca dance music, and also includes a remix from the internet’s funkiest man – grievous angel. dj support from martyn, ben ufo, blackdown and 2562.

hyperdub has long been a fan of grime don terror danjahs razor sharp productions, his unparalleled, skittering rhythm science, deadly riffs, brilliant technicolour synth squiggles, gremlin cackle signature and general ear for a catchy tune. on this first ep for the label, he showcase two strains of his many skills. acid cranks up the energy, with an ascending synth crashing into stuttering drums and synths. they play hide and seek with each other for a bit, before the track unexpectedly breaks into a 4 / 4 house rhythm, and then shatters into pieces again. on the flipside, pro plus, terror is joined by long time collaborator d.o.k for a slice of their classic sound - an infectious, twisted sickly sweet synth melody wrapped around syncopated, stop start drums to mean effect.

dirt crew, hot from their recent 5 years compilation and the >blow< album on moodmusic, is again on the wall with another hot remixpack ...

stroboscopic artefacts third release sees label owner lucy and underground trailblazer ercolino, inspired by novelist michael endes imagery, create two visions of a nihilistic future. the 12inch begins with the tale of fear incarnate >gmork<, the most powerful weapon for controlling society. the a-side is a portrait of this terrifying beast: slinking baselines come from its black heartbeat and white noise grows from its unearthly appetites. fat, squelching noises emerge as light, hope and ideas are quashed, ground up and eaten. the sound is viscose, violent and deep seething red. what emerges is a genius slice of dark, brooding techno crafted from the nectar of your darkest nightmare. the story gets even bleaker with b-side >so the nothing grows stronger<, a narrative of blips, bleeps and squeals. this extreme dub techno track is a mutinous call to arms, the sound of the insurgence. here beats forge together, fortified by a devastating charge, till the track crunches away into nothingness

as the third single released in anticipation of scott hansen’s long-awaited full-length as tycho, “coastal brake” may be the best yet—a sweet slice of dream-beat that glides over the ocean surface like a high-speed waverider. “coastal brake”’s vintage synthesizers set the pointillistic scene, blipping and popping around a near-balearic rhythm like melancholy drops in a river, rising and falling and building to a shimmering climax. it’s not quite dance music—more like tycho’s soft-focus take on the escapist beauty of house music. the single’s three remixes do the original ample justice. danish producer (and syntaks collaborator) manual takes “coastal brake” at half-time and shoots it full of feedback, bringing a scorched-earth weight to the proceedings, while hatchback’s “cosmic caviar dub version” turns down the contrast and places the song in a cave full of drugged-out pianos. lusine hacks up “coastal brake” and repurposes the bits for his own stutter-stepping, downbeat funk. listen closely, and you’ll hear shards of “coastal brake” sparkling in between the beats. limited edition (1000 copies) of tychos >coastal brake< on 180 gram vinyl including alternate artwork poster. tycho is the music project of san francisco artist and producer scott hansen. as tycho, hansen blends swirling melodies into vaguely triumphant arcs that crisscross between stuttering beats and vocal samples, creating rolling sonic landscapes that extend into the horizon. known in the design world as iso50, hansen is famed for his bucolic, sun-drenched design style, which serves as a backdrop and mirror for his musical output.

another slice of brilliant disco edits by sleazy mc queen!

after a brief hiatus, we return with a delicate slice of wax that epitomises what ldr stands for ? new, original music from hardworking, young artists. after the success of datas >blowpipe< on ld5 and a string of genre-busting releases on labels like metalheadz, critical, revolution and tempa, data brings us a grimy gem in the form of >liberty city blues<. incident from hungary and paul sg from austria blew us away with this track which featured on our recent knowledge magazine cover cd mix.

>autumn drops< is a soulful roller that shows that this crew are ones to watch in 2010. full of melancholy, icy vibes and a subtle basslinethat gets right under your skin, this track is a firm favourite for this year.

samuel knob funks his way back into barraca music via his tracks & bonus ep w/ uner & edu imbernon remix. a slice of grime for the dancefloor bound to gag and bump skirts in the air. how about adding two of the hottest names uner & edu imbernon to the mix and humping all night long to space loops and hammering percussive grooves. well the answer is clear...

once again jay denes and lisa shaw come together to make a slice of vocaly and emotionly motivated music that pulls from classic r&b (i.e. gladas night and marvin gaye, not destinys child) as much as modern deep house. the moustached boy wonder comes in as the petalpusher and gives us his tough beats, pretty basslines and memorable melodies that make for a classic miguel migs mix. the besoul mix is all bassline, the kind that makes you immediately start bobbing ya head like a chicken and wanna start dancing all sexy on the closest person available. what can you say, naked music makes soul music for the year 2002, futuristic funk for the lovers.

repress , back in stock !!!including anja schneider remix of >three weeks<. part 2 of his album released on three 12 inches. massive top dj support!
the choice of anja schneider for remix duties was an obvious one, the pair first met on a shuttle bus to an event and in short stead paul was co-writing for anja, becoming part of the driving force behind her huge debut album ‘beyond the valley’, now she pulls out all the stops to reciprocate with this standout reworking.
first up on the package is the anja schneider remix of ‘three weeks’, the opening cut from paul’s recent album. here the pair, deconstruct the parts and rebuild things into a deep and hypnotic version that has instant dancefloor appeal stamped all over it. solid, chunky drums rub up against simple spacey synth lines and warm pads to huge effect. bearing in mind the superb quality of the original this is a job well done, and a real addition to this great package.
next we have the original of ‘three weeks’, a track named after the extensive time it took to record. paul had originally intended to record the album in 6-8 weeks, then ended up spending nearly half of his allocated time on this opener. but it has to be said it was worth the effort. this is a slice of solid tech inspired house with subtle vocal elements and a musicality that cuts through the records club based nature. excellent stuff.
finally we have diamant flute, another winner from the ‘me, myself and live’ album. deep and highly engaging this again displays paul outstanding talents as a producer, weaving melodic elements deep into the mix and retaining an incredible underground electronic sound.

stroboscopic artefacts is proud to welcome on board singapore-based xhin (meerestief). with his production wizardry he has been crafting ominous cuts of cutting-edge techno.>fixing the error< is an enormous peak-time club killer. xhin knits together the sinister sound of the revolt of the machines. high frequency drum machines and ferrous sub-bass synthesizers are working urgently against the clock. close your eyes, dissolve, step into dystopia. you are transported into a post-human cityscape where strobes reflect off smelting metallic sounds and deafening alarms wail. these warning codes, layer upon layer, fashion a vision of a metropolis gorging itself on sprawling noises. the flip side, >link< has no narrative. instead, this deep, brooding slice of dub-techno is composed of pure atmospheric pressure. the undercarrige slithers and slinks, interrupted by crackles of lightening and prehistoric rumbles. the result is a construction created in a cold palate of pyrite grey: bubbling, spherical and terrifying. this is dark. this is urgent. this is xhin.

john tejada was marooned in los angeles in the summer of 82. a strange place to grow up coming from vienna austria. even stranger considering the lack of techno there in the 90s. in a land of glowsticks and desert parties, tejada stuck to his love and development of his own unique electronic sound. fast forward to 2007 when detroit area native josh humphrey was also marooned in los angeles. it didnt take long for the two to meet and connect the cables on their modulars into a system twice as big. the result is marooned, palettes newest collaboration between john tejada and josh humphrey. the trio of songs reveal three sides to the duos work. the title track, marooned, joins humphreys modular synth work with tejadas beats and soothing pads, the result being a slice of beat-driven melodic techno created in a city where such sounds are rarely heard. melodiac continues from there with a lighter mood, with humphreys modular melodies and tejadas signature stabs and rhythms. rounding out the three is concrete safari, which largely focuses on humphreys modular fm synth work that slowly evolves into a cluster of tribal sounds, modular birds and grainy goodness. humphreys knowledge of synths and programming is quite extensive. he currently works with la based big city music, a dealer of modular and boutique synthesizers. it is also a place tejada frequents to test most of his gear

after martin landskys last bomb on poker flat, man high, he comes back faithfully with we are streaking, a tasty two-tracker rich in classic landsky synth-work, deep moody melodies and forward pushing energies throughout. title track we are streaking sends a warm pulsing sonic charge right to the core. rushing, phasing and casually dramatic, an insistent synth theme revolves at the heart of this timeless slice of driving electronic house. characterised by landskys experienced produciton hands at the controls, its a slow tweaking, extended cut that will take you back whilst keeping your body very much in the here and now. the sharp post-electro swagger of personal decay punches in time to the heartbeat of a generation. taking inspiration from those adrenal, early days of rave, landsky combines modern, fi nely tuned electronics with raw, dubbed and funked passages of killer proportions. once again a perfect driver, in classic style martin shows off all angles of his love for the beat.

after the much-lauded altair nouveau 12 inch, released in association with dfa, solardisco returns with a fine three track ep from the slovenian boy wonder igor skafar aka ichisan. space patrol is a slice of lindstrom-inspired disco genius , robots from above nods to an italo influence while atanamamo is aimed square at the dancefloor with early support from the likes of aeroplane and pete herbert among others. with releases on eskimo, airtight and rare wiri already under his belt, a debut album (along with co-producer ule nakova) is due out early 2010 on nang, however, not before another release on airtight (with remix from bjorn torske no less), one on jisco/under the shade and a remix of legendary disco outfit space. expect to see/hear much more from ichisan in the very near future!

>we are electric< is the second single to be taken from the recently released >entertainment< album by fischerspooner. a soaring slice of scintillating electro with super fried guitars and anthemic lyrics that put me in mind of blade runner. possibly the standout track on an album full of super strong tunes, >we are electric< comes with 3 amazing remixes which couldnt be more different from each other. the lush radio friendly nu disco mix by kitsune favourites classixx reaveals the pop heart of the song and makes us think of the pet shop boys. next up is an absolutely storming mix by cursor miner, this is so hot its likely to burn the hair off your head if heard at full volume. its extreme treated vocals recall moments from the first fs album but the beats are pure miner madness. lastly but by no means least we have hot chip at their most club friendly, comparatively subtle compared to the previous mix, its deceptive simplicity reveals an insidious dancefloor killer when played in the right context. so there we have it then a knockout single from fischerspooner on the back of a great album that has received some fine press, a selection of which is printed below.
