a very special release here from legendary rave producer eon, aka ian loveday. loveday, who passed away in 2009, was known and loved for his enduring impact on uk dance culture, although sadly this was the one and only release on his zarnak records imprint (although loveday himself released 12 inches on a host of labels including pal sl, vinyl solution and plus 8). upon release the papal magnet 12 inch sold out swiftly and soon became a highly sought after record - this batch was found recently and has been passed onto us with the blessing of lovedays family. on the a side you will find the relentless late night throb of >cable rider< - 90s techno at its finest. flip over for the moody introspection of >passing clouds< and raw, dusty analogue thump of >crosstown< - our pick of the bunch. an excellent release.

parisian label my love is underground calls on the service of kool vibe, a veteran dj & clubber from paris. although now in his 40s, this is his debut release, but to hijack a well worn phrase, its been worth the wait. mr vibe has clearly spent many a night on discerning dancefloors, and the three tracks on offer here are produced with the steady hand of someone who knows their way around a house tune.

some more proper house music from new quintessentials signing azuni! the lads have been making a name with an excellent debut album on sthlm audio and further releases on various labels like drumpoet community. azuni stands for proper house music - and the >soulship ep< is no exception. ranging from kerri chandler type of tracks like >do it to me< to the hip housey >feel it< (featuring the vocals of up and coming chicago based bolo, who already worked with glenn underground and ricardo miranda) to uplifting old schoolish tunes like the rob mello remix of >do it to me< to the deep and pumping >how wonderful<, it all there! grab it!

go disco! a call to all who fall in love with the song >sue is blue<. everything is focused on the slow, but swinging groove, including individual flashing fragments of the 20s. a dirty house music base drum pushes this track towards the dancefloor. the piece >offshore< takes you on a journey with its epic, modest and balanced mood, which turns out to be a dancefloor sensation. >teheran traffic< is speeding up the tempo. the b-side is determined by a powerful sound. just as the >far from here edit< by philipp wolgast works well in the club.

early support by marc depulse, matt star, julien chaptal, emerson, helmut dubnitzky, toni haupt, sven teet, and many more....
a wave of unmistakable sound is currently blasting its way through clubs all around the globe.the release of his debut track >bed swing< pushed newcomer fabe into the eye of public attention and it is not surprising that the >bed swing ep< rocked dance floors of clubs like tresor (berlin) even before its official release. in addition to the original mix you will find a mesmerizing remix byholgi star (kiddaz.fm, micro.fon) & pierre deutschmann (plattform b, kiddaz.fm, k: lender) - the best mix for an audiophile firework. french sound artist super tape, who is well known for his club and party music just as much as for his home-suitable tracks, gives the >bed swing ep< a finishing touch.

there are few labels who will get the opportunity to work extensively with the most dynamic remixers, dj s and producers of this decade. bbe seems to keep coming up trumps. grammy award winner louie vega has been on top of the dj game for over 2 decades. he gained further notoriety as part of the collective known as ‘masters at work’ with kenny gonzalez form a formidable partnership reminiscent of the greatest producers of yesteryear. quincy did it with chaka khan, james ingram, al jarreau and the brothers johnson, while gamble and huff did it with archie bell and the drells, harold melvin and the bluenotes, teddy pendergrass and mfsb.

peters love of obscure disco and house shows in this solo album - wide ranging influences have gone into the musical hot-pot. take the slo-mo lazy groove of lead track and opener love is the key . this sets the sonic palette, laid back, underground and understated (but cucumber cool) throughout. deliberately absent are the commercial and pseudo-poppy sounds from the visti and meyland 2010 debut. this record is a club affair, less in your face and more all around you . for example lost in space is one part elastic groove, one part melodious, enveloping ambience and one part progressive disco groove. tracks such as i m out the door , bubble bubble and drinking in darkness are more direct, straight dance floor booty-shaking grooves. as is what you would expect from the man who has dj stamped firmly into his dna.

the long awaited new single taken from aeroplanes debut album >we cant fly<. >my enemy< is definitely the most dancefloor orientated track on there, but nevertheless we included a blinder of a remix package for you!
up first is rex the dog (kitsune, kompakt), who makes >my enemy< even more epic, or should we say arpeggiotic?! the legendary green velvet (cajual, relief, music man) on the other hand turns it into an unmatched rolling monster for the dancefloor. if thats the enemy, we wanna make it up!

five pals from leeds, england, who play scruffy but energetic rock & roll with no shortage of swagger, the pigeon detectives formed in 2002, but the group s members — matt bowman on lead vocals, oliver main and ryan wilson on guitars, dave best on bass, and jimmi naylor on drums — were mates from school and had known one another since they were 12.

for release no.4 sudden drop enlisted the talents of russian based recording artist & dj tripmastaz, who has been producing for the likes of morris audio and most noticeably dj sneaks magnetic recordings imprint since 2004. with each release his sound seems to get more defined and mature and our attention which seriously pricked when we first heard his tracks being played on jus-eds radio show. we quickly got in touch and asked for some tracks. first up is >utilized stock sounds<, originally produced in 2003 this melancholic slab of deep techno deservedly finally sees the light of day with a grimy lo-fi feel and enough dance floor nous to work the floor admirably. flip side track >botinko dub< injects a big, cavernous bass line and razor sharp hats n snares.

when we heard pompeya for the first time and were told they were from moscow, we were like: - what!? are you kidding? this is probably the first russian band singing in english with such a classy brit touch and male vocal being very strong and sophisticated at the same time. they jestingly describe their style as >melodramatic popular song< and >cheenese< is indeed a very dramatic piece with simple yet powerful composition and lyrics that really make big sense. the original is very well supported by a bunch of remixes each of which is unique on its own. an-2 & samos come with a warm, relaxed and funky instrumental version which is followed by a blockbuster mix from moscow disquo maestro leonid lipelis (an entirely perfect dance version of the original that could ever exist) and finally, for those few sirs and mesdames who are not yet aesthetically satisfied and who still find themselves seated while others jump and shout, here come d-pulse with their paranoid mix that gathers the thunderclouds to the full darkness and - at the end - lets the revival sunbeams break through.

the aliens dropped their first tune >exterminate< and >their here< to critical acclaim setting the dub step forums and dance floors alight. the guys now come with their second release and drop two brutal dub step bass heavy steppers on us. there is a lot of chatter about who the aliens are with names of a number of top dubstep artists in the frame. however it doesnt really matter who is behind this release as the music clearly speaks for itself. these new tunes have been causing chaos on the dance floor with their destructive basslines and nasty switches and being supported by the cream of the dub step scene including kromestar, skream, n type, hatcha, walsh, f1 and the aliens.

peter presto is not only the founder of pingipung, he is also the chap who did the first release on the label in 2002. since then all of his dub sounds have been available on 7inches, cause its simply the best format for these little gems. for summer of seven he has reworked a theme from a classic computergame adventure in his very own vivid, happy-go-lucky dub style. peter loves the melodies!

come end of may, dancefloors will be overdosing on awesome music. legendary dirty man housemeister will blow out his third mother-l fucking-p >music is awesome< for the wicked, and rave will reign again. but you can’t just stick your face out into this kind of quality noize - it would mini-melt right off, see!? so housemeister took instant classic electro anthem title track >music is awesome< to some players and friends and said >look boys, i m putting out a smaller dose upfront so nobody will die on the dancefloor, now who s gonna help me save some lives?< everybody was in on this ep effort, of course.

big with stephan bodzin, hernan cattaneo, gregor tresher, dubfire, monika kruse, mihalis safras, butch, paco osuna, hermanez, gel abril, joris voorn. the labels first three releases have already featured such names as martinez, piemont, daniel dreier and d.diggler, backed by mixes and original productions from some jetts very own team of artists. todays release comes from the label head himself, fred siera who turns in two original cuts, bell x1 and yeager. bell x1 is a deep, driving number. moody and atmospheric with an extra long break it touches on in-flight safety details and even a touch of nancy sinatra. seriously. on the remix and fresh from the success of his tiny little widgets album is martin eyerer. staying true to the original, martin ups the ante by adding more drive and muscle. on the flip the original of yeager is another driving number. deep and percussive with a gorgeous jazzy piano break, it receives a rework from jett001 artist daniel dreier. the watergate resident injects a healthy dose of groove and ups the percussion. added strings, vocal samples as well as a splash of woodwind take the original on a new trip

i just woke and its pretty cold outside. i havent opened the window yet, but i somehow know it and im listening to these six tracks again and try to make an approximation of why and how i have done this ep. they are pretty different from each other but tell the same story or at least are part of the same one as a matter of fact. maybe they were done as an excuse for my overdue album which is scheduled again for this year or maybe just because i was going through some odd times and needed to immerse myself in doing something. in this case music. more the latter i guess. ok so, the opening track is in a way the end of an era and the last one the opening of a fresher one. and the rest fills in the gaps in between those two moments i guess. i hate conceptual things anyways. i never know or want to know why i do certain things. concepts define something before it already begins its existence and trying to explain why is pretty useless. so here it is. the recording of a certain period of time in my tiny existence. with collaborations with jaw (dop), my brother atilla, who is also responsible for the artwork, and jonny cruz. by the time its out itll be a distant memory for me but hope it lasts a bit longer for anyone that listens to it

thirteen might be an unlucky number for some but for culprit it is quite the opposite. the labels thirteenth release >candy< from lee curtiss, is its biggest and most unashamedly dance floor oriented release to date. a watershed record for the young label, >candy< is the special type of track that reaches out and grabs you immediately upon hearing it. so it proved for culprit founder andrei osyka of droog, who, upon hearing matt tolfrey play it at visionquests famed old miami party at demf, knew it must be a culprit release, and promptly went out and signed it

two tracks that spit in the face of all those harmless, flat and cheesy >we want to be played by everybody< productions and its of course alex who takes the risk. supersonic flattens down everything with an incredible bassy basis which even almost sucks the bassdrum. classic techno and a sure shot on every technoset. centerangle on the flip is kind of slowed down and much more adventurious compared to supersonic. the breaks and the startup after them are causing riots in alexs sets right now the crispy, powerful production of this tune is nothing else as another example of alex trademark: techno in its basic sense!

the three tracks for this release go through a wide range of our sound. >cyclone< by samuel dan and feygin is a throwback to the way dirtybird records sounded back in 2006, raw and fun with big drums. but >cyclone< sounds amazing compared to the sound quality of some of those old records we all love, a definite update to the old db vibe. b-jus >babbel net< is his follow-up appearance to last years bomb track >my sneakers< that all of us played 1000 times. this is more in the smooth 808 style of dirtybird while still giving you some punch and melody. this record works really well for me and this groove crossover into a house set no problem. last but not least is maelstroms >you play<. this is a real monster, not so much for the house heads but instead for those of you who like to cross genres and explore the bass regions during your sets. definitely not your friendly deep house record this one is a real db banger in the tradition of big dirty bass we love here in san francisco.

majestys pleasure volume 1 has finally arrived and for many months these secrets weapons have been burning up and hypnotizing the dance floors of the worlds more discreet discotheques. this is the first in a series of limited releases from majestys pleasure with a very special introduction from the labels ambassador strom vandenburg who after a rather jubilant and successful career as the netherlands number porn star has now decided to turn attention towards another passion of his lustful disco reworks. these productions are strictly for lovers of early prototype techno, twisted cosmic excursions, back street boogie and new jersey garage which will leave all the bedroom bloggers out there with a confused inquisitive look upon their faces

brand spanking new label sccucci manucci launches with a 12inch offering containing cuts from four different but equally pleasing sources. those of you who hang out at the crossroads where disco meets house will no doubt already be keenly aware of the stylings of aussie pup francis inferno orchestra, and here he turns in piano-driven stomper >horizon beat<. no less euphoric is >scare the night> by jonno & tommo - alas not a production duo from far north queensland but the considerably less tropical climes of london - who drop an oven warm slow-mo jam that brings to mind i:cubes epic >falling<. scott featherstone & tino tcb on the flip, with >circles< guaranteed to raise a smile from the more discerning corners of the dancefloor. portuguese newcomer ramboiage rounds off the release, dropping some cottam-esque heavy thud house on >pretty baby<. already in the record bags of jacques renault and other members of the disco cognoscenti, fans of wolf music and kolour recordings will be all over this record which comes wrapped in some seriously porno artwork

the dazzling maiden release for futureboogie recordings comes from one of its creators, julio bashmore, an artist who represents a vividly bright and unshackled future for uk electronic music. fusing a classic soulful house sound with a hint of chi-town and future garage, >father father<, is a welcome introduction.
an instant classic thats full of warmth, >father father< wont fail to capture the heart of those that experience the piercing originality at the centre of its modern soul. from its soaring melodic chords, spacious percussion and crisp hi-hats to the silky vocal talents of fellow bristolian javeon mccarthy that lift >father father< to anthemic heights, the title track is a enraptured sonic treat.

>bussin down< is the first planet mu single from chrissy murderbot, who comes with a style inspired by his chosen city of chicagos juke and footwork scenes. he playfully mixes in elements of other styles of music he loves, such as rnb and dancehall, to create lively mutations with a warm hearted mass appeal that comfortably straddles genres. >bussin down< features chicago footwork supremo dj spinn over some tasty footwork tracks featuring spinns instructional lyrics, over some high speed jazz funk and cracking claps and klaviers. next track >braaain< is a unique amalgam of footwork with the classic early digital sleng teng bassline. the blend works fantastically, as chrissy slides the originals vocal in and out of the mix in a dub style. on the b-side atki2 takes album track >the vibe is so right< featuring vocals from mc zulu and runs it through a lush treatment that mixes detroit washes with tight, laidback, rolling funky house drums, to instant classic effect. on b2, chicago footwork pioneers djs rashad and spinn send the originals vocal into a whirl of complex delays and layered loops over cold drums and hard techno stabs. just the faintest taste of what is in store on the m-bots incredible >womens studies< album due soon on planet mu.
