after a couple of succesful releases on her label vinyl did it and the limited series they are changing it, dia comes out with the next single on this limited one sided series (300), twelveinchesoflove. moody pads and a walking bassline simmer under sharp hi hats and playful cymbals as serene chords steep the vibe in the ambiance of a hot smoke filled room. all of this is brought to a boil as urgent vocals and whoops get slapped around by chicago uprock hand claps. jazz grooves drift back in on top, rounding out this versatile house stormer aimed squarely at those who dont need to be told twice that its time to dance

the d arcangelo brothers somehow forgot about the downtempo side of things for this ep on the warm and freaky 030303 imprint. unlike on their releases for rephlex we hear mid and highspeed chicago influenced stuff thats a big treat for fans of gescom, stinkworx and afx (some stuff brings back memories of his helston flora mix of baby fords normal). mind you, theres still a distinctive d arcangelo sound to all of this jackin. what are all those false and sleepy melodies for? to confuse us? what a mindfuck this psychedelic minialbum is!

roberto bardini is a deep techno producer from turin (ita). he is amongst the few enlightened producer/djs who declared independence from the current minimal-techno mainstream. his musical approach is by all means deep, and through this he casts his vision of a more mature and alternative dancefloor.

the every day fight deep in the inner side of danjel esperanza is such a big antagonism. but its not only in himself, its his life, destiny and his music which he really lives out on his musically diary. and now with his first album ever!
no better place can it be than his label backdoor beauty to describe all the opposed feelings. the album contains nine very deep and soulful songs. deep bubbling pumpin basslines combined with spiritual singing vocals, instruments like violins, flutes, guitars and many more! all recorded together with sounds from outside which gives the unique athmospheric dubby touch and far horizons and it feels at the end like a very hypnotic trip.
inspired and influenced from so many music styles he found his own way in electronical acoustic sounding music to describe the antagonism in danjel esperanzas life and the world...which is like one happy eye and one sad eye....

>mustang< is a perfect techno track, it sums up what a whole techno night could be like. it is a fast track but also a deep cool track, when the chords join in one gets close to heaven. it is also a track that changes gear and has a nicefeeling for controlling the pace perfectly. the unbeatable cool alex under beat and 3d sound experiments that sound as if ice cubes were rotating in a tumbler make it a super track.
>charger< is a massive track! the track seems to suck up air to created a vacuum and also sounds a bit as if there was a problem with the ignition of the charger! once it gets going it is indeed a heavy rocking track!>firebird< is a fat sounding house track, which can be plaid by house djs as well as techno djs using a cool walking bassline and a super tight slapping snare and cool house vocals on top of it! starting housy the track develops into a hi energy, appegiator driven track showing alex unders talent for moving genres skilfully from one end to the other! this is a great track!

stroboscopic artefacts 1st vinyl release is an incendiary 2 track ep. label founder lucy gives us a visionary blueprint for the future stroboscopic artefacts releases, etching out the soundtrack for an apocalyptic club scenario. out of the a-sides dark, pulsing beats and itchy baselines, a granular voice rises up. krishnamurtis rasping vocal cuts through, creating a colossal techno track. the result is a hybrid of the physical need to dance fusing with the cerebral. amid resonant piano samples and utopian 60s strings, a crystalline question emerges: why dont you change? in the middle of a hazy, overcrowded dance floor this peak-time guerrilla track hints at a moment of epiphany. on the b-side dub man walking, lucys dub-roots background collides with his techno identity. the heavy drum machine structure is injected with obsessive dubby baselines and intersected by high frequency distortion. the track floats, the elements never fully solidify, instead they surge forward becoming ever more urgent. lucy mixed and arranged dub man walking live using his faithful mackie ms 1202 to keep the texture warm in an old skool way

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

ricardo villalobos playlist!! the endless white of the far north. the opening melodies of adam marshalls >north at night< can be heard faintly over the whistling wind. a small black dot appears at the centre of the distant horizon. at first it appears to be still, but gradually we recognize movement. over the next few minutes the shape begins to grow until it has defined the image of a man walking towards us. as he approaches, the music grows clearer. like the warmth of the first sunlight >rose mountain< radiates its glow through the use of a flurry of rhodes electric piano chords. adams signature percussion permeates the dub and binds its elements into an infectious groove. >mfb flex< is the counter balance to the organic flow of the other cuts and molts the warmth into a techno roller designed for the long player mix. marshall said… >ive long been intrigued by that incredible tapestry of tundra and taiga which constitutes the arctic and sub arctic of our country. ive read about it, written about it and even pulled up my parka once and gone there, yet, like all but a very few canadians, ive had no real experience of the north. ive remained, of necessity, an outsider. and the north has remained for me a convenient place to dream about, spin tall tales about, and in the end, avoid<

first vinyl pressing since the original 1988 royal records lp issue. started as a rumor, or more likely a threat, royal trux burst from the belly of nyc cum dc scum punks pussy galore in 1986. disinclined to follow the path of their host group, royal trux began the process of exploring their own identity, starting with recordings given to the end of music as we know it compilation. the idiosyncratic album offered skeletal projections of songs that betrayed a singular logic groomed on bizarre and previously unconnected realms of the rock canon.

deep disco infected chicago house music be legendary joe smooth!!

streetwise was one of the seminal dance labels of the eighties, responsible, with its subsidiary imprint partytime, for several important and influential examples of the dance genre. several of its releases were indicative of the directions that both dance and r&b would take over the next few years. the signing of vocal group new edition and their resulting hit candy girl is generally acknowledged as the beginning of the boy band phenomenon, and the labels last hit, music is the answer, was also a key element in the rise of house music. the label lasted for only a few years before falling victim to its own success and the related success of its owners, especially revered producer and remixer, arthur baker. here is a selection of streetwises greatest 12inch mixes, gathered from the archives during streetwise reign over the dance market presented on this vinyl.

first release on swayzaks 240 volts label. feat steb sly, roger 23 and conrad black

supported by brett johnson, woody, dj t, chris duckenfield and laurent garnier !! >the last shooter< uses mind bending funk to tell the story of three people ending an epic day/night in a blaze of jagermeister glory. the most descriptive element of this tracky adventure would be the misguided, off kilter synth twists that give the listener the illusion of drunkenness and vertigo. backed with a spine of latin percussion and tweaked low rez hi hats this a side packs a punch that can be only compared to >the last shooter< of the night.funk flows on when you flip it to side b. fongtom rides along with a thick walking bass line that weaves grinds with some of ferreyras signature percussion. a playful melody serves as the memory game hook that wont fade away even after a post joint meltdown or a night of mtv top 40 abuse

new release on dae by this prolific group with successful releases on paper recordings, diy discs, winding road and many classic remixes. summertime hits here starting with the swingin hot flash, coming hard with a nice walking bassline, searing chords and a killer sax riff that rocks with deepness. next up is exchanges, a midtempo house number that just keeps coming. built around a repeating vocal, this one will absolutely get things going when that analog bassline drops and a massive build up will really take it to the next level. flip for the swirl, that picks it back up and knocks it home. lush keys, great percussion and a lovely vocal sample all the elements you need for a classic deep house jam. last up is the swirl manuel turs bubble basics mix. manuel is on a roll at the moment and this mix certainly shows us why. with a unique touch he creates a deep jazzy thick sound with an additonal key riff that builds beautifully. quality for sure
