another release with foggy minimal dubby techno sound of berlin. montreal based atheus delivers a hot record that will make you move your ass in a very gentle way.

the chaps at off-key hq have been busy digging out the old dat tapes from their attic and sorting out the wheat from the chaff. for this release they go way back to bring you four more tracks courtesy of kimble, a collaboration between matt o brien and matt gates (aka minor planets). kicking things off is the beatless sketch of >lycius<, spiky alien synths flicker and pierce through detached ethereal pads moving in the surrounding weightless space. next up is the ep s lynchpin track, >state of shock<. proper techno is the order of the day here, this is an authentic old school minimal track first recorded in 1996 but left gathering dust ever since. immerse yourself in the subtle dub inflected melodies swirling in your womb bubble while the slamming rhythm track provides the heartbeat. over on the flip we chill things out with the haunting strings and aquatic bassline of >amb<, providing a delicate counterpoint to the upfront style of the a side. the ep is completed with a stunning remix of >state of shock< by minor planets, who layer on a towering bassline and transform the original into a laid back dub workout.

medias have stated recently that the number of millionaires is still rising every year... funny or scandalous? while others are sitting greedily on their fortune, one of them, kind of musically obsessed to say the least, keep to share his assets with the lucky few that will hold a part of his twelve inches serie in their hand. still getting another round of applause for the third offering that impressed quality djs from all circles (from milez benjiman to marc mac, passing by prins thomas to chateau flight), the selfmade millionaire is gaining more supporters release after release. this time, he is tributing the greatest boxer of all time and his legendary shuffle techniques in a funky boogie way with nearly 8 minutes of irresistible feelgood grooviness. many things have been said about this highly influential character, but few know that his boxing moves would have originated some freestylin’ breakdance figures. one more reason why the milionaire wanted to encourage you to do the ali...wait to flip the record to get another punch! even gave you diamonds is a restless groove that could transform an egyptian mummy into a marathon party goer with its numerous hooks, clavinet stabs and powerful catchy vocals. the tune seems to be about a guy whos really tired of his posh lady who cannot get enough of all her fancy gimmicks. would our milionaire gone autobiographical on this one? who knows...

the legendary johnny dangerous, of beat that bitch fame, returns to nite grooves with another spoken stomper. clear my mind is a dark infectious hook riddled tech track whose remix by japans dazzle drums turns it into a dancefloor frenzy. russian federations techno minimalist & hip hop producers tripmastaz take this tune all the way down to infernal depths creating an almost nightmarish sensation. this aint for the faint of heart but made rather for the dungeon of your dreams

dj gregory is one super cool player, highly intelligent, passionate about music and more than a little bit crazy, this producer holds great respect from all heavy hitters in the dance music community. in this package he puts together his inimitable own sound.

the song behind the youtube phenomenon / part 2 of 3 / includes cover of the psychedelics furs >love my way<

would you have remembered? with the debut album of the 32-year-old warszawian, téchnè, cocoon recordings has released the first artist album ever on the label six years ago, at that from an artist who was not well-known to a large extent back then. this has changed fundamentally: with his releases on his own label recognition as well as on trapez or klang elektronik, sienkiewicz belongs to those ambassadors of modern individual electronic dance music who set benchmarks. this is also his demand with the two tracks on “my little place”, meanwhile his fourth release for cocoon recordings. while the over-heated my little place re-interprets the credo of dub with polyrhythmic elements, delays and echo in an somehow unfamiliar way, “com-bat” carries on sienkiewicz tradition of putting hypnotic sound evocations close to the ten-minute mark. with intensive melancholy, the percussive bass rotor of com-bat creates a bewitched hymn for sunrises somewhere in between the urban desperation of detroit, the atmosphere of after hours and balearic bliss

you can bet this track will perform the right way for you on the dancefloor!!

deep & dubby quality work! my music is my space chapter 3 – welcome onmutu mechanicks (=arne weinberg), hieronymus (kyoto sound), daniel stefanik (no words necessary) and rodrigo bk (yuki yaki). after the second chapter that includes detroit- cuts statik entertainment develops the minimal and abstract way of dub and dub-tech in its special and unique way. discover & enjoy

again the tracks were selected carefully, each of them strong on personality and waiting to burst out and put the willies up anyone who believes that techno can be pigeonholed. cue bjorn svin (of mand over board fame) and a brooding monster of a tune that briefly saw a release on his excellent 1999 lp benene pa nakken and was included on the la monde (aka len fakis) at the wheels of steel mix cd the following year. believe that this track is a killer one of those inspired pieces of techno that sticks in your head for days after hearing it for the first time next up label boss jerome hill lets his bass out in the comedic rel und pol, a dancefloor workout with a syncopated speech running throughout. flip over for rob stow and im going to kill her put simply this is nasty (in a nice way) a riff that tears you a new one and edits and tricks galore, this ones gonna give the speakers a battering! last but certainly not least, switzerlands ki yota from mercurochrome and mental industries steps up to deliver us an apocalyptic anthem with wowwow bass, that swiss percussion and lead riffs all snaking around, finally building to a satisfying climax over and out

excellent deep minimal tech 4 track. big with adam marshall, jamie jones, jimpster, onur ozer, sebo k, tobi neumann, philip sherburne

nice price deal !!! playmakers go prog and bigroom while leisure groove chose the deeper way...

as well as being the first track on the album jim, another day is released as the second single. jim bursts out of the box with a gospel flavour on his lips, testifyin hand claps a plenty and even some ambient birdsong to let you know that summers on its way. lidells got talent to spare, and he obviously knows his soul forbears work intimately. the 12inch includes two energetic mixes of another day from rustie and matthew herbert.

label boss, spiros kaloumenos does it again! analog mode 01 was charted and hammered by main techno players and more of the same is expected for this one also. two solid techno originals by spiros that prove exactly why his reputation is growing more and more over the last years. moderate and turbulence were tested continuously on spiros dj sets over the last months and proved that will rock the dancefloors big way with their massive breakdowns and rhythm!! on the flipside two remixes make this record a must have!! this time on remix duties are two names that need no introduction! paul mac from u.k, label boss of stimulus rec. and contributor to some of the biggest ever techno imprints like: primate, theory, ingoma, intec, sino, kanzleramt, delivers the goods for one more time turning original track into a pure, straight, peak time mover!

jaffa music is proud to present freedom part ii with massive new remixes from halo, jamie thinnes and dolls combers. no need of introduction for this title....just another huge freedom package being released right before summer that should provide something for everyone from deep minimal to balearic funk. dont miss this sure to be reference for the upcoming summer season! included in the package is a bonus track called breathe from singer jono mcneil who has featured on jaffa musics first ever release miscommunicate. thanks to benny pecoraio and his way too classy remix. this should have the exposure it really deserves!

one sided killer application!! some tracks are so weird, that they can neither be fit into a regular release schedule, nor an appropriate b-side be found. for these black sheep we have decided to create a small niche on connaisseur supérieur. the cnss black edition will sporadically present tracks that are way out of our usual categories… with >numb<, daso finally opens his >panteras< box and again proves his ability to rock reeeally hard. the track actually consists of two seperate tracks whose combination has proven itself during several of dasos live performances. it is the transition between the two tracks that makes the crowd go mad. the clonky intro (already published on ware records as mud max - zampone (maderfotor rmx)) morphs into a giant breakdown with perhaps familiar sounding spoken words before it suddenly reincarnates as a ravey monster from hell! numb shouldnt be taken too seriously and is definitely not for all occasions, but dropped at the right moment, this atom-bomb will cause serve damage on dance- floor-gro

hailing from toronto and now residing in berlin by way of brussels. aschka is a rising star on the european music circuit. she makes her us premiere on defchild with two deep and melodic excursions. on remix detail, chicagos kate simko (kupei musika, spectral, peacefrog) delivers an exquisitely evocative downtempo remix of rain, while new yorks stefny (addon, hector works) serves up a mammoth mix thats a playful and jacking reinterpretation of sensoreality.

following up from >the way you love me< album sampler, spen and marc evans are back with his second single off the album >given me joy<. this is another solid slice of soulful house from the balitmore boys, and spens tight production along with marcs trademark soulful vocals delivers the quality we have come to expect. with mixes from french remix don dj fudge, house legends knee deep and the groove junkies, this is one release not to be missed

those cheeky peckham boys return with a killer single in the shape of last of the lookers. a swaggering indie dance riff makes way for a track with bucketloads of attitude and young soul. spread over two seperate 7inchess - this one comes in the shape of blue viny with a sticker and features a live version of missing in acton.

#1 in villalobos charts!! also supported by loco dice, troy pierce, dave clarke, dan curtin, agoria, anthony collins, ben sims, laurent garnier. >fearless fun< was taken from the >wilmslow road< ep on mind your head records, grimes own label. originally released in 2004, it only got remarked by a bigger audience when ricardo put it at number 1 in his chart two years later. because the vinyl was so hard to find - but way too good to remain unknown to the masses - we decided to license it with a big shot remix on the flip. because efdemin - incontournable since his amazing self-titled debut album on dial - loved the original so much, he agreed to give it a try. the result is a huuuge dancefloor tool as you can hear. a unique package you cannot miss out on!!

>be free< is a soul drenched full vocal roller, cool rhodes chords and a little cough set the smoky atmosphere right, leading way to the drums. strings and background effects compliment the intro as it breaks down to reveal the be free vocal. pure quality! this takes us on a little journey with catchy lyrics and a hook to get you singing along word for word

a fascinating delve into the bizarre and brilliant world of jeremiah yisrael and the disco funk treasures of tap records. i ll let it rot before i let them take my shit. – jeremiah yisrael forty seven tapes, reams of sheet music, copyright forms, membership applications for the brotherhood of wisdom, two flaking acetates, three moldy 12inch singles, and a script for the still unfilmed motion picture angel dust. we stuffed it all into four supermarket fruit boxes, jammed them in the back of a rented chrysler town & country, and tore ass out of nathaniel jeremiah ben yisraels driveway, making a getaway that simultaneously spit us right back at the most bizarre recorded mystery we d ev

dj support – eric prydz, john digweed, sebastian ingrosso, steve angello, axwell, nic fancuilli... following the monster success of the teaser remixes comes this next cirez d bomb on the enormous mouseville imprint. eric can be described a a true scene pioneer as here again he mutates his style to create a truly fresh dancefloor sound with these 2 new killer tracks. both of these tracks have to heard on a club system to be believed. stockholm marathon wallops along with its bass heavy groove and chord use similar to that in teaser before dropping immensely mid way. the journey is simply epic and has been one of the biggest tracks in erics sets for some time with its vocal refrain and enormous driving snares and gut wrenching sub bass

jesse siminski is one of those musicians its impossible to ignore. whether producing as heartthrob or alter-alter ego vivianne projects his work is instinctive, insightful and driven by an irresistible force that instantly rubs off on the audience. its no surprise then that the first single to be lifted from heartthrobs eagerly awaited debut album >dear painter, paint me< is >signs<, a track that fully demonstrates the extent of his repertoire. one of the highlights of his not-to-miss live set, its also become a corner stone of richie hawtins dj sets over the last few months due to the massive crowd response it generates whenever it drops. billed as homage to classic detroit techno, theres a real air of expectancy about the mix friendly introduction. the powerful kick pattern, swirling sci-fi vocal efx and loose hi hat groove soon make way for the urgent, cavorting main melody that spins off into another dimension before a massive, resonating synthetic bass wipes out everything in its path. one of the main ideas running through the album is the juxtaposition and layering of different rhythms and time signatures and this really comes across on signs, with disco and caribbean inflections adding a cut and thrust to the chugging groove, creating the perfect foil to the sonic mayhem overhead. the b-side features apprentice – a tag heartthrob can safely leave behind with the release of >dear painter, paint me<. of course its another guaranteed floor filler with a finely honed acidic riff that immediately taps into the subconscious...

essential basement boys classic funky house production... raw, deep and phunky ... produced, arranged and mixed by dj spen & karizma

nice price deal !!! the unhistories sound is psychedelic, but not in the paisley way. more mind expanding/modern...get it straight, singer isnt referencing any past trend in music. their idea involves their (very) original compositions tangling with voices stumbling, clucking, heaving, whipping, shrieking and sighing in a graceful jumble. this is a crux. this is unhistories. by way of introduction, the record is packaged in a way that brings the fun and the fury of singer into your hands, your home, your lap, your eyes, ears and headphones with life, weight and a glossy polish.
