nice price deal !!! with juno records hitting its tenth release we revisit yet another classic from the archives of electronic music royalty. producer, label boss, dj & remixer extraordinaire, charles webster will need no introduction to house music lovers, and its his 1998 collaboration with renowned uk vocalist shara nelson which gets a 2010 touch up. orignally out on the seminal label pagan, >sense of danger< was a real deep house anthem back in 1998, so it was imperative to leave it in good hands for remix duties. the popular peoples front, the disco house supergroup made up of anonymous musical activists are just that. ppf breath new life into >sense of danger<, with nelsons vocal being matched by an effervescent dubby groove. an alternate dangerous dub gives the track a darker but equally melodic feel with an abrasive bassline central to the groove.

chicagos specter (tetrode music) is welcomed into the sistrum family with the bionic being ep, featuring three cuts of raw depth. tip

run by annie & sex tags !! finally it’s here! the new long awaited 12 inch from the talented norwegian producer skatebård. these two tracks were originally meant to be released last year, but due to different reasons they never made it to the press, and almost disappeared into darkness. totally and sex tags ufo got hold of them, and now they are here for you to enjoy! way out-why not? are two beautiful and melodic tracks, one with a massive percussive breakdown, and both with skatebårds original and unique italo sound. this is the summer anthem record of 2010, no doubt!! skatebård has previously released on labels such as tellektro, keys of life, supersoul recordings, sex tags mania and radius, in addition to his own label digitalo enterprises. totally is a label formerly based in finland, founded in 2002 by annie and timo kaukolampi (op:l bastards). now it is based in norway, and operated by annie herself. with the label annie releases her own material like the recent album dont stop, and various other artists as well

emptiness isnt a quality you normally associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the dancefloor to the weight of the bass, its all about fullness, volume, density. reboot turns that opposition on its head with his debut album, shunyata. the title comes from buddhism and translates loosely as >emptiness.< but not just in the negative sense: it speaks also to impermanence, a state of constant flux. its a great description of reboots music, where everything is in constant and kaleidoscopic motion. and its also a fitting metaphor for the life of the frankfurt-based musician, aka frank heinrich. in just three years, since his first eps under the reboot moniker appeared on cadenza and below, hes become one of electronic musics hottest properties, releasing not only a slew of singles for labels like cocoon, love letters from oslo, ricardo villalobos >sei es drum< and underground cult fave motivbank, but also a pair of high-profile mix cds for cocoon and cécille

very limited white label. rmxs 005:the 5th in the series sees silver (accidental heroes and sonic and silver) deliver his interpretation of >jonny jungle< the original tune was from 1994 and was a huge hit back then! dj silver bring new life to the track as he brings it up to date? this has had massive support from all the heads in the scene. the flip is work done with good friend and fellow producer lutin from france, as they come with a soul infused number called >i choose you< which was a hit originally by >wille hutch< this tune is defo one for the summer time ladies

phat detroit - techno classic 2lp

reference (planet e / echospace / beretta) consists of the detroit-based artists luke hess & brian kage. in the first reference vs project we squeezed some of the party out of seth troxler and some of the percussion expertise from ryan crosson to create the still sought after tracks >the fade< and >the bumps<. in the second installment of our reference vs series we wanted to get a bit more soulful, & deep with the music, and highlight two of the worlds finest dub techno artists - stephen hitchell (cv313) and marko furstenburg (surphase). stephen hitchell aka cv313 is first a sound engineer. his experiments with synthesis create a warm, ethereal, and organic analog sound all his own. in the reference vs projects we seek to extract the natural strengths of the artist. when we received the files from stephen we knew we were packing heat! we structured our zone around the life-like chord structure that cv313 so effortlessly creates and gave it some more dance floor flavor. we believe the track titled >the wake< will fill dance-floors over the summer months on the beach as well as in the clubs. what can we say. markos shuffled dub stab style has been in demand since the artist started releasing on thinner back in 2002. mr. fürstenbergs deep and emotional music is an extension of his character. we were happy to receive what we expected from marko, super percussive, cavernous, and soulful soundscapes. again we referenced the package out with some drones, new analog rhythms, and eureka. the zone continues relentlessly in >the swell< to carry the dancer through the night into another summer day in the sun

limited edition one sided 10inch. a tune. and a voice. and a simple choice?. be my husband and ill be your wife. i can hear it playing in clubs from newquay to east fife. >what is that?< they say, >i know that, im sure<. but theyve never heard it played like that before. its all about the drop, let the music talk the talk. no one ever gets paid. never run before you can walk. and its all about the music, love the trouble, love the strife. because i will love you for the rest of my life. busted by:(the tea drinking) scruff,(the diminutive yet mighty) geiom,( the masked wonder that is) sbtrkt

db_24 is the sound division of >ded blokkz<, a global concept exploring the urban life and similarities between lost industrial areas and natural landscapes, with sound and images. it is made with analog sounds and graphic shapes, with different degrees of abstraction

the >lazy mouth< project, brought to life by jean-daniel tömör & thomas tietz, primarily wants to express their passion for electronic music culture, to present it in its multiple facets and to make it accessible to a wide public. mainly performing as live-act in the club scene, the two guys enthuse their audience with fresh, funky-experimental sound.

solomonic sound (aka rob paine and zack eberz) are one of the originating forces in the dub-house genre and have rocked many a late-night dancefloor with their spliff-heavy sound excursions. this ep collects two of their finest moments taken from rare early worship releases: the deep, moody tech of >beating heart< and the irie percussive ride of >night life<. excellent repress of these two essential dub-house masterpieces.

>privilege< deals with the fortune of living out a dream in a world that does not grant all people with the same opportunities. over the last year i had the fortune to visit places around the globe in which i felt the obscene wealth of opportunities i have in life. its hard to bear that the majority of humanity will never have the chance to even dream of who and what they could have been. (glitterbug about his new album)

2009 was quite a frenetic year for john talabot.from scratch he became oneof the biggest hopes for electronic music scene in spain.all thanks to hiseffusive house tracks in which moodymann, j dilla, chicago house, discomusic and northern soul intertwine to produce organic and humane songs, fullof life, and that make your hands and heart dance.

the first new material from tim deluxe in a while and well worth the wait with these 2 heavy heavy club cuts. jack it started life for tim as live jam on his machine drum analogue box of tricks and shows in its energy and swing. mupod continues in much the same vein, all analogue beats and bleeps, big in the boxes of groove armada, chris fortier adn x press 2, and the title was inspired by the lovely little creature shown as the packshot here. last copies !!

akin to deconstruction itself, >the gift< symbolised the credible mid 90s dance hit. surrounded by a fog of cheap commercial fodder, way out wests roberta flack-sampling crossover anthem shone like a beacon, reaching the top 15 of the uk singles chart in 1996.
kicking off the new package is way out wests own 2010 remix. toughening up the original break based drums and adding a few new synth lines is all wow needed to do to breath a second life in their ubiquitous track.
gui borattos remix takes the track into deep tech house territory. gui flips the track to a straight 4/4 beat, adding some organic percussion, side chained chords and his trademark warm distorted synths to create a truly euphoric groove.

after kaºpars futuristic >music life< 12 inch, its the perfect follow up... it displays groovements pluralistic and confident attitude that good music neednt be of one genre alone and that there is much to gain from being open minded and eclectic as a label. another solid and dj-friendly 12 inch from portugals finest that is sure to reside in a lot of savvy djs record bags.

dfa records presents >another heartbreak< — a three-song, two-sided single from love of life orchestra, the forthcoming retrospective album by legendary nyc composer peter gordon. >dont dont redux< is a reworking of >dont dont<, also from >extended niceties<. building on the sampled hook of the original >dont dont< featuring rebecca armstrong, iris hiskey and dora ohrenstein (singers of the steve reich and philip glass groups), this new version features a cast of ned sublette, larry saltzman, martha mooke, paul nowinski and the polyrhythmic powerhouse that is robby ameen.

second release on the new ibadan offshoot, public service recordings. >life story< gets the ball rolling with some bumping disco-fueled peaktime house, with a strong female vocal dominating atop a bed of funky bass, stellar synth lines, and solid house beats. yohan squares >love of life< takes the mood a little deeper with some lush late night house, blending sweeping textured synth lines behind a deep bassline groove and shuffling late night house beats. on the reverse, julian jonahs >jealousy of lies< is a detroit-flavored late night houser, with textured synth lines, a stellar spoken male vocal, and laidback beats and bassline all combining perfectly. last up is >rey-d<, a deep late night track that utilizes some fairly bumping beats behind a minimal bassline and rich chords for some minimal floor grooves.

sie haben die stadt amsterdam binnen k?rzester zeit auf die internationale rock-landkarte bef®rdert, haben dem rest der welt gezeigt, wie man britpop auf holl?ndisch buchstabiert. gleich ihre ersten auftritte fanden im vorprogramm von paul weller statt, dann entdeckte sie karl lagerfeld, der ihnen dazu verhalf, vom esquire magazin mal eben als ºbest dressed band? abgefeiert zu werden, und inzwischen sind sie auch hierzulande eine feste gr®?e

more than most, jason amms work as solvent embodies the original ethos of >synth-pop<: hook-laden music built lovingly out of the buzz and hum of analogue synthesizers. solvents newest full-length on ghostly international - his first in nearly six years - is called subject to shift, and its title reflects the changing tone of amms music.

torontos finest man, james teej follows last summers huge track >spending life< with >get off the phone<, another beautiful and brillant song! james teej is a 29 year old canadian born electronic music artist, producer and dj currently residing in toronto. having signed tracks to such labels as rebirth, rekids, connect four and tic tac toe, james has proven himself to be a highly versatile music producer and vocal performer!

minority boss hector moralez teams up with life long friend oscar miranda for a belting 3 track ep on minority. >last of an era< has a killer bassline and a hypnotic vocal that will keep the floor moving all night. >for realz< is on the deeper tip and the boys uses spacey keys & trippy vocals to devastating effect. last but not least is >about time<. this sounds like derrick carter style beats meets a mood ii swing style bass line, nuff said. boom!

some ideas are just so good, they deserve a second chapter. like christian prommers drumlesson vol. 1 album, released in 2008, which featured instrumental jazz versions of legendary techno and electronic tracks including derrick mays strings of life, kraftwerks trans europe express and josh winks higher state of consciousness. critics and audiences were united in their positive reactions to the album.
jazz meets house, electronic meets organic, drumlesson zwei is a testament to musics limitless potential for inspiration and reinvention. drumlesson zwei is not about narrow labels, fads or genres. great music lasts forever.

after the first successful release with the swinging track 1927 by shemian, burlesque musique goes one step further and invites the band budzillus to contribute a stomping balkan beat song which the labelheads put into a garment of lucious tech house. every instrument is recorded live and used in this pumping remix by aka aka. if youre into the black magic, buy the vinyl. it contains also the first release by shemian!

nice price deal !!! 8 years after his first vinyl release georg levin can already be described as a long-time yet unlikely member of berlins electronic music scene. with both his solo project and his production outfit wahoo he is definitely too much on the soulful side to be a typical representative of the techno and rock sound the city is known for. however, it may be this supposedly alien surrounding that gives his compositions and productions a distinctive blend. to his credit georg also had a no.1 on traxsource in late 2009 as a precursor to the release of this, his second album album and debut for bbe.

limited to 200 copies, vinyl only!! abstract forms brings you another slice of fine quality electronic music. derrick may describes him as >a very accomplished musician<, and he is not wrong. . . please welcome the very talented louis haiman. the formless ep features 4 tracks of wonderfully thoughtful and sublime electronic music. from hypnotic detroit influenced techno to slow outer limit electronics, this ep oozes buckets of digital soul thats carefully designed to take you on a sonic journey, it will free your mind. featuring 2 new exclusive tracks and 2 tracks from the >life after people< lp that was previously only available as a digital download, this ep will no doubt please all the vinyl lovers amongst us..

bitten, co-founded in 2009 by amsterdammers sandy huner and dylan hermelijn, focuses on the techier side of techhouse life.
daniele tignino is without doubt one of the most famous and prolific italian djs and producers. already in 1991 he started releasing tracks on important italian labels such as umm, palmares…
for the 4th release on bitten he delivers woodanza, a tech-house track phat on the tribal beats, with a layer of mumbling vocalsnippets across the top.
oliver klein then drives it down a more techier route, while chart-topping duo doomwork and award-winning neuroxyde, take the track on the deep and grooving road.

huge techno bomb on alan fitzpatricks imprint.

following the massive success of super fluff disco stuff vol 1, butch is back with a vengeance bringing out volume 2 - another hot disco-house banger to set the dancefloors on fire.

new project of super duo the revenge and harri ( resident of glasgows legendary sub club ).one cut in a early 80s boogie/ hip hop style while the flip harks back to the early 70ies psychedelic soul craze with a stomping soul disco cut a bit like the revenges planets on jisco music a while back ( but still going strong!). you cant go wrong with this

slamming 4 track with funky disco edits

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

the vinyl package includes an essay, which was part of the original cd package and now arrives on one side of the inner 12inch sleeve. the essay, album and track titles take direct inspiration from slavoj zizek, whose analysis of cinema was a strong beginning point for the project.

including seamus haji vs mark knight & funkagenda >good times<, paris avenue >my life is muzik<, basto! >your fire< and gregor salto feat. chappell >your friend<

new imprint from the ashes of hidden history has born please welcome to gentleman recordings. mr riccio rocks the first ep. a1) bags of groove and funky glitters are in this irresistible dance tune. a2) the boogie gets deeper, the loops are even more rhythmic then the chorus enters adding powerful disco diva-style. b1) dont stop to dance till you hear this! now the club is in full disco swing, here comes the hottest track.
