kyoka - first solo female on the raster-noton roster works as a musician / composer in berlin and tokyo. she has been releasing music since 2008 and is known for her chaotic, direct approach and heavy-rough sound resulting in a broken pop-beat with experimental yet danceable rhythms. ish means around, like or about and reflects her way to be clear by being vague - brightness wrapped in a blanket of obscurity and abstractness. the ep was produced by longtime friend frank bretschneider, a remix was delivered by atomtm to tune the first track hadue for the dancefloor. ryuichi sakamoto underlines the exceptional talent of kyoka: >panic! it sounds like a toy box turned up side down. how can she make such pretty & chaotic sounds!? i love it!<

february sure isnt the month to laze around when the new rennbahn baby is chasing for your dance. the crotalus ep starts as if there was a crotalus right behind you! the original mix delivers a powerful basedrum and deep synths. the snake sounds, vocal snippets and the use of reverb and delay build a wide and huge atmosphere which leads us directly out of the reality into the heart of the jungle where youd love nothing better than to stay forever. watch out - you shouldnt stop dancing unless you want to get bitten by a snake! the marco fender remix on the flip side takes us out of the jungle into the club. an impulsive beat highlighted by a sub baseline comes to a nice replaying synth melody. here the vocal snippets are not applied to fulfill the song with a deep atmosphere but to complete the hypnotic rhythm of it. watch out - the snake still follows you at every turn! finally miyagis remix comforts us with safety - marching towards the end, it seems like we got rid of the snake. now we can wholeheartedly lose ourselves in very deep synths, floating hi-hats and a mystical and tempting melody. as if this wasnt enough the outstanding beat wont let you take a break and forces you to keep on dancing

one of the labels that caught our eye in the last months was lonesome hero. here their third release and its another quality one. a more then solid house track that kicks off with an intoxicating metalic bassline that hypnotically segues into the rasundas staple groove-heavy drums, with an achingly timeless piano peppered all over the top. on the flip-side, the boys over at campaign of love handle the remix duties. by tracking it out a bit, col have roughed up the original with a combination of strings and 909 snares, while keeping the spirit of the original mix alive with a snippet of its massive bassline.

the connaisseur family welcomes its youngest member: ava myra flitsch. the daughter of hilary and alex flitsch was born november 15th, 2011 and both the parents and good friends of the label celebrate this miracle with this release. all participating artists were asked to produce a very personal piece of music. the style was left up to the artists, resulting in a beautifully mixed batch of great tracks. the intro track hello! by dop & masomenos features a little vocal snippet as a salutation by masomenos adriens son and it is an atmospheric, soundscapish and beatless tool.

after several appearances on the label, kareem comes up trumps again with an excellent first solo single release backed by a wonderful remix from white doyen oskar offermann himself.how low can you go the opener track acts as a discreet, structured, driving and some how dubby house tune that keeps a nice layer of grit beneath the fingernails. its loopy character imparts the feeling of virtually remaining unchanged but it nevertheless staidly evolves within its sonic borders and imparts a sensual quality of all-enveloping warmth. oskar offermanns interpretation of how low can you go introduces skipping melodies that are transmitted as choppy discoesque pulses and rhythmic modulated bass sounds are the preferred form of punctuation. indeed the remix is intended to be a dj tool, but like all of oskar offermanns recent house works, it builds smoothly as though every element was simply waiting in the wings to make its appearance at the proper moment, and – just before it finishes up – sounds like it could go on forever.

the new leena welcomes an artist who rise through the ranks of the dj elite has been swift, purposeful and striking. starting out as a promoter and label manager, nicole moudaber booked huge acts for her soundworx nights at londons legendary turnmills club alongside running southeast recordings, but it wasnt long before she started to produce herself. flawlessly carving out her very own edgy house and tough, soulful techno sound, her music was instantly picked up by the worlds leading tastemakers including carl cox, john digweed and pete tong. a residency in ibiza playing alongside carl cox at his weekly night followed, as well as requests for guest mixes on both his and john digweeds internationally syndicated radio shows. her releases have received just as much praise as her dj performances.

a product of his surroundings, wasserfall creates organic, electronic music using an array of tools - including a nord modular g2x, a roland tr 909, a roland sp 404 sampler & an apogee ensemble – but dont think for one minute that its all about the gear, and that he is just a technical producer. field recordings feature heavily in his work, and you can often find him patrolling the streets of oslo or berlin hunting for the perfect sound that will convey his ideas within the piece. anders is just as at home creating scores for film as he is producing rhythms for the dance floor, during his time in berlin he created a contemporary soundtrack of the old russian silent-fim classic a man with a movie camera (dziga vertov 1929) which was performed live in berlin, bremen and in bergen. after all this is said and done, the e.p boils down to just one thing - house music for the heads. nothing lightweight, just the heavy goods. long time coming on vinyl, dont miss out on the result of a year of work getting it just right, if you managed to bag the previous #gcw vinyl you know we take absolute pride in our output. a strictly limited pressing. mastered to 180g vinyl by the one & only john dent @ loud mastering.

so after the elusive triumph of our first release finally came firmly into our grasp, we at sequencias here in new york thought it was time to take things in a parallel direction without retracing our steps. drafting three top names in underground deep house for a label debut is no mean feat, but how do you follow up on a surprise coup like that? we thought it was time to go even deeper, and we couldnt think of a better way of doing that than getting an experienced player to unveil a new alias for our second offering. things being as they are, weare trying to keep it a bit low here, but what we can let you know is that his discography stretches back to 2005 and that he has appeared on the illustrious bunker records. this should give you a good idea of what to expect: deeper-than-deep, dirty, and gritty house that jacks with the best the movement has to offer. we have to say that orpheus firmly delivers here, and we hope you will be as pleased as we are with the three dark and introspective offerings he unveils for his new project here at sequencias.

after two smoldering releases on figure & spc, roberto bosco is back for his third offering for len fakis spc imprint. a future-classic 4 track techno ep, with more than enough to keep the peak time floors happy, this is big room music at its most intelligent and sensitive. easing us into the thick of it, charming noise takes humming, rumbling bass tones and a metallic clang as its themes. slow burning and readily effective, its a brooding monster for the late hours. i just cant breathe pushes the adrenalin up a few notches in a screaming, white noise attack on the senses. boscos trademark heavy bass rumble and crisp percussion layers hold their own in this reduced killer. were then ready to embark on an emotional voyage as the masterful see the light emerges from the depths with its pushing acid bass and beautiful atmospheric melody. classic strings and synths swirl and build in a tender and heartfelt piece of timeless techno. closing the ep, i was lonely takes the vibe into more reduced, after-hours zones with robertos cool and low-slung take on the smoother sound of futuredeep house.

one of our favorite south african producers is back yet again with his second installment of melodic moments ep vol 2 on the seasons recordings imprint. dee mac came to us with melodic moments ep vol 1 project in early 2011 and was released and well received by the underground dance community world wide. we ask dee mac to continue his journey with us and we hope you enjoy!

mika vainio, currently based in berlin, was one half of the minimal electronic duo pan sonic from finland, (the other half was ilpo väisänen). before starting pan sonic in beginning of the 90 s mika vainio has played electronics and drums as part of the early finnish industrial and noise scene. his solo works, under his own name and under aliases like Ø, are known for their analogue warmth and electronic harshness. be it abstract drone works or minimal avant techno, vainio is always creating unique, physical sounds.

from the estrela archives of exactly that period comes the original, which was crafted by portuguese calapez at the time, as well as the newly edited pyjamas remix. calapez builds the theme monkeymonkey on top of a playful piano roll and swinging beats – simple and pure. with a wink the pyjamas remix carries that approach and the minimalist melody on, while adding a nice portion of acid. but the absolute highlight of this release, as already alluded in the incoming quote is definitively the more than cutting edge house remix of sacco vanzetti duo. funk, power, tempo and lightness: its got the ground formula to spin itself into the perpetual hunting grounds of the absolute house purist.

two years after his ripple effect release on rush hour, kirk degiorgio returns to the label with a new single, entitled divine logic. the legendary uk techno producer kirk degiorgio is known as a purveyor of techno soul in its finest form. he was at the root of the uk techno movement in the early 90s, soon after the detroit sound went global. he has recorded many now classic releases under guises as future/past, as one and elegy for labels such as planet e, r&s and mo wax as well as his own art label. with divine logic he keeps true to his own tradition by delivering a timeless piece of techno music. a string-laden track that evolves around an arpeggiated synth line. a classy joint that shows that the heritage of detroit techno still lives on.

as said in the info for dérive vol. 2 in 2010, haste makes waste. that in mind it does not surprise it took even more than a year for dérive to come up with vol. 3, but finally its there.a 1 björnski & a different jimi_9 to 5derive co-owner björnski opens up with his first release >9 to 5<, a collaboration with his partner-in-crime a different jimi. sharing a passion for deep house and jazz music, they produced this hypnotic eight minute track built around a jazzy piano loop that melts together with the bass line, surprising the listener with jimis saxophone solo. b1 achim maerz_haters gonna hate >haters gonna hate< comes from derives resident producer achim maerz who just released his first mini album >this is the end< on fine art recordings this summer. obviously it was just the beginning, as he comes up with a warm, deep and dubby yet still pushing track that lets you wanting the night to last forever. b2 tilman tausendfreund_with you the last track on this record is delivered by hamburgs latest talent, tilman tausendfreund. after releasing great solo tracks and coops with christopher rau (e.g. on contentismissing or hypercolour), on >with you< he chills it down to a funky 95 bpm, soulful sweet little something that works great both in your club and bedroom.

for a while it was the perfect label… no,were not (yet) talking about gomma from munich,also an excellent address. this is about the legendary company casablanca records&filmworks from hollywood who during the second half of the 70s literally skyrocketed and played an essential part in shaping modern disco music. besides scoring some mega successes with their famous leading acts donna summer, kiss und village people, casablanca revolutionized the development of electronic dance music like no other label.

bestworks records proudly presents the debut of two young aspiring producers from berlin: felix fisher and fabian dikof. several years ago both of them learned their first skills in a youth project which was developed and run by non other than label owner and producer andre lodemann in a small town erkner on the outskirts of berlin, germany. this release is a beautiful connection between andre lodemanns former job as a street/social-worker and his work today as a producer and dj on the international circuit. the track by felix fisher is a more detroit orientated tech-house track with a darker approach and fabian dikofs is more dubby-house influenced. christian prommer and phoniques remixes give the release a great twist in other musical directions.

organs of love are the power-sleaze duo of james mckinven (organs, love) and alicia matthews (vocals, love). james mckinvens musical odyssey started with playing synth in (kraftwerk, suicide-inspired) electro band berlin blondes. he then moved on to altered images. after that he worked in genetic studios learning from the modern day genius that was producer martin rushent (human league, the stranglers, the buzzcocks). then went on to form one dove and worked with maverick genius andy weatherall. after that he drifted back to where it all started, analog electro, and miss alicia matthews. alicia matthews has quite a different background – one from fine art and performance. through working together at the same bar and having many intoxicating late night chats, they decided to try to get back to a 70s theatrical, musical performance: where live music and art combine for something beyond the rock gig vibe. and luckily enough, miss matthews has quite the pair of pipes – a true vocal delight. the result is organs of love … who frequently perform live around glasgow and have quite the reputation of thee band to see. videos can be provided, but they are not for the faint-hearted! not that optimo music ever provide a dull moment …

for the inside job ep, beat pharmacy leaves dub in the background, taking things in a more straight ahead house and techno direction. percussive without being oppressively banging, melodic without excessive nooding, tracks like >inside job< and >comet< nevertheless retain the intense attention to subtle detail that define moellers more dubwise productions. >in a trance in france< takes things into a deeper more hypnotic realm, and >hootin & tootin< toughens things up with an ominous analog bassline and thunderous kick drums sure to ignite a mainroom dancefloor. yet even here, echoes and melodic elements sweep through the mix, lest you forget who was working the boards.

giueseppe cennamo, head honcho of carillon records and a true gentleman from naples, returns to desolat with 4 inimitable tracks. let your love flow with its infectious minimal groove and mantra-like sample repetition, stomping >dont move<, bass heavy >marimba< which was one of loco dice secret weapons for a while now, and a stumbling >dance till tomorrow< with its spooky shouts – here we have 4 inimitable dancefloor tracks on coloured 12 inch with a label artwork by samitoon

this ep was formed with a concept in mind that involves a natural phenomenon occurring in various/different fields of science and nature - anti-parallelism. as the word suggests, anti-parallelism describes the natural relationship between two occurrences, objects or even non-material things, that are virtually identical and yet oriented in different directions. during the time the music was made i was researching natural phenomenons like this one. naturally, this became part of the nucleus, fabric and inspiration for this work. in genetics, for example, if the antiparallelity is corrupted during the process of dna replication it is called a mutation. this mutation can be anything from totally inconsequential to critical for the survival of the whole living organism. a double helix of dna contains two helixes, that are naturally anti-parallel to one another. in physics this could be two of the same objects moving through space and time in opposite directions - just like the instruments or parts of a beat in electronic music production. so metaphorically speaking,anti-parallelism holds a natural balance to keep it safe and stable. although this might sound all very conceptual and theoretical this music is obviously just what it is - it is not intended to teach math, physics or biology in any way. the above mentioned aspect has simply found its way through my head and might have led to a piece of music that somehow, at least for me, is connected to these thoughts. it might evoke something very different for you.

from celle into the wide world: these days guido schneider is one of the major globetrotters among djs and producers worldwide, but he began his career 15 years ago in provincial germany. however, instead of baking bread rolls, schneider founded his own label neue welten right from the beginning. it was a move that naturally brought him to the capital of electronic music in berlin. what followed was a series of exciting and successful collaborations with other renowned artists, and after dissolving his label, schneider began travelling as a sought after dj, jetting all around the globe. it is little wonder that such a reputable dj and producer also belongs to the diverse highgrade family. he has now produced another ep for the berlin label which brings us the typical guido schneider qualities right before our eyes, or even better: before our ears! the two tracks navigate precicely from the first bar, the minimal sound universe that relies on elaborate percussion, without ever being over produced, and flow into fantastically harmonic vocals that lend the thumping beats an elegant softeness. simply stated, typically schneider.

the first mobilee release for 2012 is by an artist who through hard work, passion, and an unwavering dedication to his craft, has garnered wide international recognition from the music industry over the past ten years. sean millers debut release with the mobilee camp, was his successful cmon thats it on leena earlier in 2011, and now he brings us canibal royal to be released on mobilee records as he simultaneously joins the mobilee booking roster! his previous productions have found their way on some of the leading labels in dance music today steve lawlers harlem and viva music, audioflys supernature, nic fanciullis saved records and 2000andones area remote. for canibal royal, sean has worked with live musicians and instruments to create a genuinely vibrant south american carnival flavour. on the flip, soleil creates a calmer mood but still with a strong summer vibe. enjoy.

backflash - as the title of kellerkinds new ep on stil vor talent rightly suggests - is a full-blown blast from the past that utilises 80s aesthetics in order to craft a wonderfully contemporary ep much in vain of the en vogue sound of 2011: slow, forceful goovers with basslines so big, they might just crush you. nothing less was to be expected of the charismatic swiss producer marco biagini who has already proven his wide-ranging understanding of house music with tracks like länzer is a dänzer or groovebox.

hotflush presents the debut 12 inch from belgian newcomer locked groove aka tim van de meutter. the young producer delivers three hypnotizing and genre bending tracks that expertly weave the sounds of berghain, soulful house and uk garage into a single crushing package. the >rooted< ep draws you in with the title track, bouncing along to an acid baseline, then moves onto >drowning<, a moody techno track that was included on scubas dj-kicks mix compilation, filled with drum and ambient samples taken from field recordings. lastly, >change<, a production that smartly melds classic house grooves with industrial techno, demonstrates locked grooves rhythmic finesse and long-term promise as an artist.

remixes of the track skill shot, which is included on the >20 - two decades of hardfloor< album and originally released on the album >all targets down< from 1998. versalife is a restless producer from terschelling, holland, who strives only to combine digital and analogue together into atmospheric, well designed pieces of music.with such an honest mission, its no wonder the man known as boris bunnik aka conforce has had continued success recently, with a number of singles, eps and albums coming on respected imprints like clone, delsin, meanwhile and rush hour.pip williams from the uk began djing in his ear teens, making electronic mix- tapes for friends in the safe confines of his bedroom. after gentle persuasion from his fanbase, live gigs followed including residencies across london and gigs in europe.a foray into music production was a logical progression.having run its natural course after a string of successful releases, pips drive to showcase his music was still rampant.

terence: terry’s record label la vie en rose gets set to re-release the huge hit >key of love< for the third release on the label, also featuring a rework from u s h and a remix from hold youth aka seuil and le loup.>key of love< was released for the first time back in 2002 on the label d-note by sleaze, which was made up of u s h and greg. it graced the dance floors of all the best underground clubs from ibiza (dc10) to paris (zebra) and it also featured on >kwality<, the ralph lawson and dan ghenacia compilation, gaining further popularity. limited copies were pressed so it quickly became a favourite for the vinyl collector.

the londinium ep is the latest release on uzuri recordings and welcomes chicago skyway back to the fold. not that hes been away too long, having produced a full 12 release and contributed to the from chicago turin amsterdam & dublin with love ep just last year. we also welcome hakim murphy to the label – with his credentials it was only a matter of time before our paths crossed!as the title suggests, this release was inspired, conceptually at least, by our nations capital, and its apparent that sean has spent quite enough time here to get the gist of the place, with the b-side tracks entitled traffic and noise, respectively. im sure he loves it here, really.musically, he keeps it closer to his windy city heart – very clearly reflecting his roots, in fact. as a dj and club promoter in mid 90s chicago, sean frequently shared the decks with some of the citys biggest talents at that time – cajmere, gene farris and spencer kinsey (gemini) among them, and one could say that theres an audible relief flavour to a-side, london streets, with its stripped-back, hypnotic stomp. its fitting that hakim murphy remixes the track, coming from similar roots within chicagos scene, and his own reworking retains the drawn-out essence of the original but brings a whole new hips-and-shoulders groove to the track.

the drltd006 was taken from the 5th diametral cube release by sascha walter called ?glastank? in a nice electro techno manner followed by a driving techno remix by tobias felbermayr and a great deep tech version by fallhead.

on brothers in loves first release, max k. gets right down to business introducing himself and this family project: booming kick drums, thumping toms side by side with sharp hi-hats and staccato claps. machine grooves with sounds as raw as the musical approach of the artist. >losing your cool< builds on a massive kick drum, with a tom groove shuffling the track. it develops into a late summer bloom, which is over as fast as this years berlin summer was – with piercing percussion to remind you that winter is already here! >overdrive<, the first track on the flip, starts as a heavy slow groover with thumping kick, crashing snare and acidic synth lines until a punishing hook enters knocking you upside the head. the second track on the b-side, >indulgence< comes disguised as a stepper with a raw, pulsating analog bass line, but reaches its apex with a whirling synth lead on top of a vocal that could never be classified as your ordinary preachapella.
