this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

the label is a platform for the best funky techno outings around and features a broad range of well-known producers. volume 5 welcomes a new artist to the label and a very famous producer on the remix.
claudios impressive debut on the audio family imprint. serious deep dancefloorstyle techno in the style of advent and those alike. with huge synths, heavy basslines and an overall clean sound most producers can only dream off...

aux-rec is being launched by airdrop records as an offshoot label designed with a specific mission in mind: to look back and pay tribute. aux-rec surveys musical history looking for those inspiring pieces of music (famous or forgotten) that carry a very distinctive groove and identity, and that offer the potential to be revisited in an ingenious contemporary way. at airdrop, we love music of all ages and of many genres! we feel aux-rec is a way for our artists and for us to pay our due respects to the origins and the evolution of contemporary dance music.
the existing airdrop roster of artists will be invited to contribute to aux-rec, but different artists will also be uncovered specifically for this project. off to a fresh start, franco cinelli and club rayo (a duo composed by rafael sorol and pablo terreil) engrave their long-time friendship on this record. franco cinellis first productions were released on the duos imprint club rayo disquets at the beginning of the millenium. the club rayo collective has been extremely active in the local argentinean scene for more than twelve years now.
going back to one of music historys greatest classics, >fever<, franco cinelli and club rayo bring their own interpretations to a theme that has known as many versions than people taking a sing at it in the shower! using ella fitzgeralds and elvis presleys voices, club rayo create repsectively the fitzgerald mix - a rocking dancefloor jam looping ellas fantastic voice bringing it to a culmination - and the king dub - a 118 bpm groove punctuated by elvis low-pitched and resonant tone. cuerdas is a short guitar instrumantal rendition of the fever theme. on his remix, franco cinelli creates a 10 minutes drum symphony, especially designed for the post-climatic hours. both producers kept in mind ellas famous quote when undertaking this great enterprise: >i stole everything i ever heard, but mostly i stole from the horns.<
the following releases on aux-rec will also be in the form of bootlegs, edits, re-works or samples (you name it). they will bring back memories to your heads and mostly the groove to your feet. to be true to its mission of a vintage exploration, aux-rec will be releasing exclusively on vinyl, in the tradition of the essential music format of the 20th century. there will be no digital releases at aux-rec. in the pipeline are soul claps edit of laid backs >bakerman< as well as le loups version of sheila es >a love bizarre<, produced by prince.

yore returns with yet another deep master piece. javier alvarez, a madrid based producer and proprietor (along with his younger brother dubbyman) of the underground label deep explorer music, brings his relaxed above smoke sound to the yore imprint. in the first of four warm and atmospheric mood pieces, awfully drapes dense synthetic winds over a deliciously grooving, bass prodded deep house pulse. get down does exactly that with five funky minutes of rhodes chords, disco hi hats, and synth swirls, a percolating bass line lends the track a propulsive charge, while crowd voices give the cut a party vibe. on the b sideÆs ôthe fixö javier scatters chopped fragments of the spoken line, i ve got a lot of shit to say and i cant say it all in one day, i cant say it all on one piece of tape, over a funk house groove, after which dubbyman offers variations on the theme in his remix of the track, dubbymans version digs deeper into the cuts bass science and warms the tunes slinky pulse with hand percussion and claps. old school in its embrace of classic house sounds, above smokes ep is tailor made for those who like their material laid back, groove centered, and funky.

tube10 returns to the scene again with a release to blow your minds away. this time its the greek formation ekelon. their debut on planet mu with headhunter on mary anne hobbs evangeline had us in our grasp so much that we couldnt help ourselves then to hit them up and see what whould happen. tube10 005 is the result of this encounter and it shows ekelon flexing their crossover sound like no other. is it techno? is it dubstep? we dont know but we sure as hell love both tunes to bits!

support from : d.diggler, someone else, joseph capriati, martin eyerer!!! it s summer of 2009, at least once in a while, in germany. with silent heroes, martin woerner delivers an absolute adequate sound for warm and sweaty outdoor partys. but just as well, the sound is suitable for wonderfull dumpish afterhour sunrises. the track yelp isn t that dreamy, but doesn t rise less emotions and it ll defenitely also find his supporters! fact is: even if one can still recognize the typical sound of martin woerner, this release sounds different in some way. in addition, it foreshadows different stylistic facings of him and more of these can be expected hereafter. due to those circumstances, a new sublabel named inclusion records limited has been created in cooperation with the distributor (dbh-music). make sure that you keep informed for the future!

just in case someone might have forgotten: stil vor talent is based in berlin. and this ep by sascha braemer, one part of heinrich & hirtenfellner, proves just that. braemer, whos just been at the top of everybodys dj charts with his funk-laden minimal soul piece >mamba drums< on kindisch records, has donated three tracks to oliver koletzkis imprint that mirror what this city is best know for: funky minimal grooves. first up there is >ghost track< a typical dry minimal loop with a rhythmically in touch vocal sample that is then juxtaposed by a simply astonishing piece of melody. goose bumps and groove humps on the floor - guaranteed! on the flip: >girl<. here braemer has created a dubby piece of tech house that floats towards a soulful vocal and some beautiful strings. this is one for the early morning, or in berlin, the late afternoon, those times when everything seems in perfect harmony with each other. last up is >guitar man<, yet another very sample-based stripped down loop with one riff of an echoed guitar being the protagonist. when that riff is fully played out, we all know its summer. but it wouldnt be berlin if there werent some dark wobbly basslines seemingly destroying this but in fact creating the perfect combination of soft and hard, of light and dark. on top of this the vocal sample >i wont leave< perfectly encapsulates the vibe of the praised berlin afterhour. stil vor talent is back at home with this ep.

computor rockers return after the worldwide hit that was computor interface (brk49) with another showcase of exactly how electro should be put together. all too often retro can mean dull and uninspired (or just lame plagiarism), but anyone who has been following ed dmxs career over the last several years will know that really isnt the way he plays the game. instead he understands the value of songs and melody... the beats are fresh, without a doubt, but it will usually be the tune or the lyrics that will hook you into a dmx production, the elements that turn just another electro track into something unique and valuable. and so it proves here, from the classic computor shock (which helpfully comes in vocal and instrumental versions for those who just cant do the voice thing) to the melodic and hooky electro-funk of how we used to rock and distributed processing. stunning as always!

the original instrumental mix of stardust was one of hed kandis favourites at el divino last summer, and with the new season already taken off with the ims and the opening fiestas last week, ibiza is the perfect place to drop the new vocal mix, which really sounds like the long awaited vocal version of pjanoo that has never seen the lights of the day. this adds a monster loleatta holloway sampling vocal to the large twisted disco groove of the original. a massive bomb that is set to be a big hit for the usuals! skylarks andy chatterley takes to the controls with a powerful interpretation, complete with sharp driving drums and an underlying techno rhythm. a more stripped down dub mix is enclosed also for those who like things a little bit darker and deeper. last but no by means least, tim hudson, fresh from his latest here comes the sun release on hysterical, turns in a hypnotic house groove to make you smile.

hailing from montpellier, rodriguez jr. makes his return to leena with “kids of hula,” bringing the coastal sounds of his hometown along with him. after the success of “rubbo swingo”, his first release on leena, rodriguez jr.—who also comprises half of f communications’ the youngsters—went on to release records for boxer recordings and mothership. on leena’s 11th release, he has returned for a second round, once again displaying his softer side as a housey, psychedelic producer. “kids of hula“ begins on a strongly melodic note with airy, exotic chords leading the way and occasional accents of tropical percussion lining the backdrop. old-school throwbacks also have their place here, as the track climaxes with the use of psychedelic vintage sounds that recall the work of space disco giant lindstrom until they ultimately fuse together with the track’s initial harmonies to create a complex and layered final product. the b-side “pandora” begins with a more stuttered beat and a warbled, static-laced environment. the track reaches its high point with psychedelic sounds comparable to those heard on the a-side that possess a more hypnotic, melodic, and spacey twist. digital exclusive “offshore” fills its landscape with fragments of vocals and high pitched bleeps, blurps, squeals that alternate in time with one another until vintage synthesizers enter the picture. as the track progresses, the old-school synthesizer sounds and vocal snippets unite and begin to work together in unison, by the time the track reaches its peak, the vintage synths have taken on a completely new sound and direction, guiding the pulse of the track until its ending.

dave dk needs no introduction, since his debut moodmusic album “lights and colours” he s been busy travelling the world preaching his trademark electronic deep house sound and remixing florian kruse, tigerskin and seva k for labels baalsaal, global underground and dirt crew among other things. for the new moodmusic release dave packs 2 tracks from the album in new edits as well some major remix biz from ada (areal, irr) and russ gabriel (mobilee, ferox) remixing cinema paraiso was ada s choice, the epic floating, almost balearic feel to it fitted perfectly the fine hand of ada and her perfect production values. starting with a rough 303 bassline, building an intense but deep affair buidling into a hypnotic frenzy of old school acid and modern electronics ! from the feedback from the few selected djs who got their hands on this gem, ada s remix is allready in groove mag top-10 ! the b-side coimbra, a rocking house belter with neat sample editing and the dave dk bassline juggling between the low end and the ultra low sub. russ keeps much of the original intact, deepening the groove with his funk injected beats and some lush detroit influenced chord action like we know and love from him. as a bonus we include the original mix for those vinyl lovers out there !

from out of a clear blue sky comes ?my electric family?, the second full-length and third all-round release from new zealand?s bachelorette. bachelorette?s music beams to us through a universe of unconquered pop music, where long beams of sunlight extend to infinity, and blue moons rise wistfully in the deep purple expanse. she stands in the cradle of modern songwriting, that of psychedelic pop music. the sense of infinite possibility felt in those songs, the desire to manipulate a collective sensation to become anything at all, informs bachelorette?s journey. bachelorette?s song structures are traditionally examinations of love and longing, the exploration of self versus self and in relation to the surrounding, silent universe. the songs of ?my electric family? emphasize a particular fascination: the meeting of man and machine. ?my electric family? is an arresting development in the world of sweet pop music.

london s idjut boys (dan tyler & conrad mcconnell) and rune lindbaek of oslo are meanderthals. as longtime friends and fans of each other’s music they have discussed the idea of working together in a musical context for years and in 2008, they finally began to make those ideas a reality. throughout the year they traveled back and forth between oslo and london to create their debut album, desire lines. the album is due the 11th of may. but before that, this 12&#8243,,, taster of the andromeda (album track) as well as a idjut boys remix) a meanderthal is a theory by matthew tiessen about a human that is always in the way of others. whether it be the person on the wrong side of the escalator, the person walking slowly, the person bicycling on the pavement, it is essentially the person that stops the flow of urban daily life. on the contrary, lindbaek, tyler and mcconnell s definition does not see this person as a threat, but as a person that is completely in his own world – a slacker, musically on his own. this could also be a good description of lindbaek and the two idjut boys. meanderthals serves mellow balearic disco. a warm and dreamy blend of dub, folk, prog, kraut, psychedelia and 70s west-coast combined to invent an organic, slanted, and proggy feel. recorded live, the album features contributions from good friends, including pete z (dj harvey) on keyboards, des morgan (yamwho?) on drums and percussion, malcolm jospeh (grace jones) on bass, per martinsen (aka mental overdrive) on percussion and raj gupta (laj & quakerman) as sound engineer

first release for this new italian label, who claim to bring techno back to its top level. we re inclined to agree with those sentiments, as are the others who have received promos of the release. the a side consists of two deep and dark techno tracks, that should also find favour with more minimal djs. they are apparently by a popular northern european artist, going under the guise of ????. the label has kept such a secret that we dont even know who it is. on the b side, we have a soz adams (esperanza, archipel, gumption) remix of label head obtane and fris, which is a retro chicago style excursion, and german duo sebastian herre and obscure close the ep with a more detroit techno inspired track.

big time summer release! the sd records imprint has build up a steady name with rock-solid releases that switch easily between genres like techno, house and electro. the overload ep by mark du mosch follows this tradition: it s timeless, deep, warm, melodic and above all, very danceable. titletrack overload is a dancefloor monster with a devastating low end and an almost ravey feel to it. genesis is deep and repetitive with fragments of lost melodies drifting to the surface. summer breeze has the perfect title: it s pure musical sunshine for those warm summernights. the beautiful in the clouds takes off with floating melodies that slowly develop into grooving rhythms. a perfect finishing for a perfect ep that will be in many records bags for a long time coming. summer starts early this year. don t miss it.

the soul clap boys from boston who come up with the next airdrop outing, outdoing themselves every single time. it’s becoming increasingly hard to hammer them down to a certain sound or aesthetic as their thirst for innovation is just unquenchable! >puppy crack< is a potent dance drug and should immediately be banned to avoid further brain damage. dripping into your drainage like some highly potent acid, the track breaks down into the wonkiest mayhem that clubbers ears have heard in a long time!for those who like it darker, the ragged >beat the puppy< tool is the one! not beating around the bush but rather beating the poor squelching animal, the track rages subliminally, gripping tight around the neck with a metallic beat that should have any old party dog wagging its tail rhythmically while the voice filters in causing uproar with its build-up.call in the ambulance and hope the doctor saving you when your overdose is mikael stavöstrand: he is just such a fine balancer and knows how to dose right: >puppy crack< becomes a deep entrancing affair with squelching noises and hypnotic synths that underline squeaking and clicking effects. slowly the whole affair culminates in an evil addiction you did not even notice you developed!

the next installment from the new beyond imprint is with us, featuring two newcomers from the thriving us underground, kapuchon & benny rodriques. the pair bring a magical detroit infused collection of warm, urgent and modern house music into our peripheral vision where its simply hard to ignore … like a well loved vintage drum machine tweaked to perfection, or a dusty old synth rejuvinated, >and again< draws inspiration from the rich synthesised landscapes of classic detroit techno, however adds a totally fresh and modern aesthetic, through its use of precise drum fills and beatifully crafted harmonies. on a more thoughful, soulful tip, >unexpected< unravells itself with smooth chord atmospheres, driving, solid-state percussion and teasing delay fx. the story might be a familar one to those who have their ears firmly pressed to the dancefloor, but for good reason, as these two fine storytellers have crafted a golden moment for the late, late hours. the acidic ride of >potato tomato<, with its pushing sub bass and glistening crescendos is perhaps the toughest cut of the e.p, and delivers the energy where its needed whilst still holding onto that classic, deep-as-dawn chicagotodetroit vibe.

transmissions florales is massis first vinyl release. the density of the 808 drums reminds us this is synthetic from the start. but as the the swirling, phasing 7th chords and the crystal-like lead tones build up and blend with the laid-back wah-wah guitars, this simple song take us to some sensual, forgotten place with swaying limbs and flashing lights. with a few changes in structure and the timbre of the bass, the acid mix proposes an alternate scenario - gliding to the edge of madness with a wink at raving in the late 80s. are we in the disco? or at the seashore? keep on moving, keep on flying. bionic gulls call to each other over the oceans arpeggios. >alpha base< uses a similar synth palette, but with quite different results. rather than waves, this piece seems to evoke dramatic weather over a jagged terrain. the funky, syncopated bass and percussion remind us of some ancient tribal ceremony on parched soil. odd sound effects imitate the heat and sudden shots of lightning, while the ascending pentatonic breaks suggest a primitive electronic geisha, draped in mylar foil, deflecting the suns rays as she dances for the gods. she performs an intricate sequence of steps, each with its own placement and hidden meaning… having spent the past 2 years entertaining crowds at underground clubs in berlin and around the eu, massi is already somewhat known to those who enjoy dancing to whatever is eclectic, energetic, and atmospheric. now, perhaps more people will hear his special groove. we hope you share our joy, our obsession… and the particular oscillations from this very personal >transmission florale<

ister smooth steps out with 3 new edits to expand his palette.nightlife unlimited is a classic muzic box favorite, all disco, all the time. the ron hardy version of peaches & prunes appears on muzic box classics volume one, and automan 2. theo parrish used it to create his track mustang 1 which appeared on a ltd white label in 2000. his version of bostich takes a huge swipe at this wbmx classic extending the drum intro into a crowd stoker and encorporating parts of the lp version into the original 12inch mix. guaranteed to stoke some fires in your set. the b side is a 10 minute version of the super rare le cop rock freak, a disco funker thats a deal sealer for those on the edge of snagging this ep

produced by matt jam lamont teaming up with chicago legend tyree cooper. the man who brought us from acid house to hip house returns in fine voice, with a groove reminiscent of mike dunn, uplifting beats for those who like to move it.

once again, tuningspork records ventures away from its trademark funky house in exchange for something a little more unexpected. last summer, the label issued >free your mind< (tsextra), a baleraric groove crafted by jay haze and ricardo villalobos. now comes another non-sequitur: >comptine d un autre été: l après-midi< (tsultra), mr. tiersens piano composition reconstructed for the dancefloor by jay. french composer yann tiersen has a minimalist approach that many electronic producers could learn from. his piece (the title of which roughly means >nursery rhyme of another summer: the afternoon<) provides the basis for this melancholy track. djs addicted to hyperbolic effects plugins might hesitate to play this - but those who appreciate subtlety will be rewarded here. tiersens original composition is tastefully manipulated into a track that makes sense in a club context, yet sets itself apart from the usual techno/house fare, providing a rare introspective moment on the dancefloor. and it might be worth mentioning: if you play this track and the floor doesnt fill up with ladies, then it probably means youre djing at a gay club. (not that theres anything wrong with that!)
