recloose is back with a state-of-the-art house 12 inch. two refreshing house tracks on the a side, and a banging heavy one on the b that-s leaning towards electro. the recloose as we once knew him is back. glorious! -saturday night manifesto- is his first new output in three years. it was well worth the wait, the music at hand here is truly mesmerizing.the ep shows a night out recloose style. it starts out smooth and mellow with -electric sunshine-, a heartfelt future soul piece. it then moves on to the bumping groove of -parquet-, a shaker that carries that signature recloose funk. it closes out the night with -tecumseh-, a dirt-deadly primetime mover that opens up halfway and make you want to reach for the stars and then some. with -saturday night manifesto- recloose delivers a classic ep that reminds us of his -spelunking ep-. yes

the more perceptive among you will no doubt twig the musical direction of an ep entitled >the deepness< by 2deepsoul before the needle even hits the groove. if you hoped it was going to be brimming with ocean deep grooves and burning chords - deep house in the truest sense - then youd be right. malcolm moores altered moods recordings brings us the debut release from 2deepsoul, aka rai scott and brad peterson, who set their stall out with a title track dripping with moody synths and hypnotic drums n hats. >escaping insanity< meanwhile is underpinned by a delicious acid line - perhaps the most outright floor-friendly track on this here 12inch. the metronomic pulse of >harmony< is augmented by a majestic one note synth loop that gently soars above - a rasping hat soon joins the fray along with the gentlest of string flourishes. >continuance (theory of lazy clap)< is equally bewitching, with a title and arrangement that wouldnt sound out of place in the dj sprinkles catalogue<

the index is a project by two of new york city s underground music pioneers, raz mesinai aka badawi and dub war founder dave q. the label centers on original badawi productions at the intersection of dub and modern composition, as well as new works and remixes by some of the most forward-thinking artists at the outer limits of dubstep and experimental electronica. the first release was 2010 s head-melting el topo / dstry all pfrfts team-up with shackleton, and this second entry finds badawi reviving new york s dystopian hip hop lineage via a collaboration with the legendary mc sensational of jungle brothers and wordsound fame. no schnitzel is a militant, mind-bending half-step rhythm that sensational weaves in and out of, creating a new form of dubstep-hip hop hybrid with a unique bad apple flavor. the dubbed-out version strips it down to the instrumental roots, while flipside more schnitzel goes deeper into abstracted acid dubstep for the more adventurous soundsystem selectors.

i fight myself to sleep, my eyelids, heartbeats are lead weights of despair and sor-rows. the years disappeared within loneliness. to manage staying alive i keep my visions to myself. you were once my friend, a sinister. the sinister composition was written by par grindvik during 2009 and 2010. writing sinister was part of a healing process. the original sinister was never meant to be released - and it will probably never be. however, in 2010 par came up with the idea of handing out parts from the original, to a few of his friends, and to release different interpretations derived from these parts. the new interpretations would mark the beginning of a new label project cal¬led sinister. next to par’s own rework of the original, you will find the following interpretations. samuel l session (klap klap, music man, soma, be as one), s100 (stockholm ltd), gary beck (minus, soma, saved), staffan linzatti (stockholm ltd, searchlights), jesper dahlbäck (isl, drumcode, h-prod)

the next coup by sirion records is from none other than one of the founding fathers, fedja haueter aka feodor and his fellows alex torriglia aka mo-tek and beni dossenbach aka balance. the trio, better known as vol-tek, has played a key role since the very beginnings of sirion s musical outpours and was represented in sr001 with a remix. numerous remixes and their own release sr005 - vol-tek - male & female are further to be mentioned. a part from sirion records the trio was represented at friends labels such as cristian paduraru or samy freshs augenringe records. but their next big thing is yet to come, as the threesome has been finishing tracks throughout the past year and surely need to be reckoned with in the future. the tracks after dark and conciliator are both rather deep, playful tech-house gimmicks, enriched with a bit of progressive.

>whip it out< was originally released on the >twisted clones ep< by rodolfo wehbba and stephane signore on primate endangered species 017. it was an instant classic. 2011 is the year of the fresh new version by stephane himself and fits straight into the new technosound. remixed for your pleasure by nicolas clays and wyrus. and as a special treat for the collectors, the original is on here as well!

trio techno cover, it was just a question of time to reach the point when wayne considers himself to be the one to create a musical statement in order to show what he thinks about all the current status of some parts of the electronic dancemusic circus. he still suffers from too much so called >minimal< in his eyes and he wants back the energy he is missing on many occasions… >you know, techno without bass is like f…… without screwing him in…< some might say he s too late with this song, but thats simply wayne! in his universe the meaning of time is different to what we all would expect. anyway, he finally checked out garage band on the mac he recently >lended< from somebody he does not even know, and here we go with his first very own song. lyrics in german only and heavily inspired by one of the biggest hits from the 80ies from the german cult-formation >trio<, but to make a long story short: its waynes message that the so called minimal sound is definitely over now: >always klick and always klack, i can not tell how much it sucks...<

big with: sebo k, ryan crosson, dario zenker, lee burridge, shlomi aber, seth troxler, lee curtiss, brothers vibe, reboot, karotte, dubfire, mathias kaden, ellen allien, ame, joris voorn, .. italian born alex picone has been an integral member of the bass culture family since the label launch. his thai ep, our second release, found critical acclaim from both djs and dance press. backed by its chris carrier remix, the ep gathered strong support from the likes of loco dice, luciano, tiefschwarz, dj hell, ame and more. alex was soon following his ep, with a remix for arnaud le texier on ivory machine ep from bcr005. again receiving huge praise and support from his peers. when hes not at the helm of the bass culture express, alex can be found releasing work on such highly acclaimed labels as cadenza, bosconi and tenax. whilst his output may not be as prolific as some, each and every release stands the test of time. this may be down to alexs unique and unnerving ability to cross genres, however we feel its simply down to the unrivalled quality of his productions. a quality that is once again in evidence on his, en pensant ep. four wonderfully varied original cuts and a summery phil weeks remix that range from the smooth as silk, vocal-lead title track, to the deep and elegantly twisted coco verde.

heres a new lazy days. this time we welcome back atnarko to the family featuring sam mollison vocals. sam was the voice behind sashas seminal >magic< track in the early 90s. on remix duty, we have peter christianson from lawnchair generals and we also have a nice bonus cut in the form of >break of day<. watch out for pt 2, remixes from pezzner and fred everything. early support : danny krivit, johnny fiasco, shur-i-kan, mr v, quentin harris, giom, diz, nacho marko, mark bell (blakkat)…

bodyscrub is one of the most exciting & uprising talents of the growing neapolitan techno scene. with mind blowing releases on labels like phobiq and 1605 he was able to catch our attention, so we are glad to announce his first ep on driving forces recordings. with >hyperactive< and >regular< bodyscrub delivered 2 slamming & modern high quality techno tracks for the peak time. but that’s by far not all!

die 4 herren der harten schule zeigen was die heute noch alles drauf haben ... the quartet don?t just push all the right leftfield buttons and bling the tweak fantastic, they also reinvent the contemporary groove and find funk in the freak. superb stuff that defies classification ? just like the producers themselves.

gerd is delivering at the moment! after releases on clone royal oak, philpot, a big re-issue on rejected, great remixes on 4lux and delusions of grandeur its time for him to release on his own 4lux label! a massive chicago influenced track called h.o.u.s.e. featuring the voice of l.b. bad, the prince of dance music. this track was originally penned in 1994 when gerd had elbee over to tour the benelux. the track was released on an obscure limited edition white label only back then, but here a new rework of these old recordings. 2011 sees the track remixed by gerd himself and he takes the tune into rough & uncompromising analogue territory with filthy synth bassline and relentless tr808 action. seriously good track!! jakob korn, arttu and neville watson are on remix duty and deliver some fresh remix that complete this record. recommended!

after a longer break berliner frank mueller and london based ulrich schnauss have surfaced from their studio labyrinth to present the beroshima longplayer >polyphonication<. following a string of eps and remixes the fourth beroshima album was long overdue! it continues to explore the stylistic frame defined by the recent successful releases on cocoon, soma and mueller records and yet manages to surpass the expectations set by these skilfully crafted productions. beroshima defy genre boundaries and incorporate a wide range of sonic colours out of a studio filled with current and vintage equipment whilst also drawing from long term experience on the live and dj circuit. ten tracks that deliver state of the art dance music with more than just a touch of funk which never lose the spirit of exploration

diese keith hudson aufnahme von 1974 ist so etwas wie ein verlorenes schmuckst?ck, das wegen seines gesangsstil in den letzten jahren immer mehr an bedeutung gewonnen hat. untergebracht in einem sonnigen cover artwork klang entering the dragon mit keith hudosns unverwechselbarem vocal style zu seiner zeit wahrscheinlich ziemlich erschreckend, wirkt aber heutztage wie ein wendepunkt in der entwicklung von dancehall und hip hop. besonders highlights sind st?cke wie will you come out tonight , it was when friends started to talk about you und rage of love !

sound of stereo continues to surf on the techno-wave that was already swelling in the previous hurricane ep, luckely there are no storms ahead this time! sound of stereo is ready for the summer. are you?

four veteran detroit creators, individually accomplished and respected. each, a producer / performer / dj with a long history of deep, inspired, electronic and accoustic music, so innovative, to spawn a genre all its own. soiree records proudly showcases these melodious, technological, architecs on the first installment of detroit: deepconstructed. drivetrain leads off with driven. multifunctional and intelligent this one was constructed from the floor up, genuine and raw. throbbing rhythm and harmonious pads generate the perfect ambience for the signature vocal proclamation. next up, dorian gigís, the james herbert theory is a courageously deep, tech flow. gigs solid detroit influence clearly takes centerstage. thick, fat chords atop a flanged hi-hat move the air while the syncopated riffs fill the groove. dwayne jensen returns from a long departure with i see the sun light. reflecting jensens untold late night, underground experiences.this crafted pulsating, solid house swing inserts a hypnotic vocal chant for total authenticity. new to soiree records, but a known novice and powerhouse to the cause, malik alston’s offering is dance jazz. showing off some extraordinary piano chops, backed-up by a mental sax riff, alstonís unyeilding bassline and acid blips will not disappoint the dance floor. detroit: deepconstucted is music undefined from a place where music does not compromise.

gogo music unleashes the 60 hertz project invigorated with ralf gum and essential i treatments. their world debut single >capricorn< is an admirable jazz house affair featuring magnificent vibraphone and guitar soli with a good dose of melancholy. 60 hertz project was formed mid june 2009 in pretoria and is a live performing group fusing musicians and producers. it was initiated by the young producer and dj talented blackjean. he was joined by the likeminded deeptwelve and marvink, who inspired to collaborate with pianist sdk, bass-player kmor, guitarist tap plus percussionist and vocalist cromy. conjoined they deliver an outstanding performance combining live played instrumentation and electronic beats which brings jazz to the house club and house to the jazz bar. gogo music now releases with >capricorn< their first ever record crowing with remixes by ralf gum and essential

pattern select aka milton jackson and show-b have gone well and truly back to the raw on this, their first collaborative work together and debut ep for delusions of grandeur. both producers have been busy on some top quality projects just recently with milton jackson remixing recloose for planet e and show b producing for robert owens on compost. the pair met at a party in munich, promptly fell in love, and soon enough pattern select was born. kicking off tale of the tape sees the pair go deep n dark on this low-slung groove where demonic laughter rides the driving hats and insesant crashes until the filtering arpeggiated synth line joins the fun. tale of the dub gives us a stripped back, dub-infused version which goes a little lighter on the craziness of the first version but without losing any of the deep, hypnotic funk.

cool, dark underground club monsters. being a top player in the music industry is not an easy task! but with 15years in the business and over 150 releases, 50+ remixes & 300+ compilation appearances the numbers of jeffs output speak for them self’s. jeff started creating music in 1994 and got hooked on it directly, but it took until 1998 before his first single was to come out on his own label maskros music. since that single he has released on labels like poker flat, night drive music, episode, treibstoff, kickin music, konvex konkav, plastic city, global underground, regular etc.

the beginning of a new era. founded in 2005 by thomas wendel aka don williams the beloved seminal imprint with cult status mojuba is facing the next level with the debut album kawasaki by stereociti from tokyo. when in 2005 the first sounds of mojuba were introduced to the world, people quickly realized that there is something very special going on different to the usual house or techno business … it was something more emotional, more personal, somewhat more deeply rooted! stereociti aka ken sumitani is truly one of japans finest when it comes to uncompromising underground dance music with heart & soul, whether it is the realm of deep house music or the darker moods of detroit techno. you can actually feel that his roots go far back into the early days of electronic club music but never lose sight of the history of soul, funk or dub. his debut kawasaki, named after his hometown, is delivering the quintessence of what is considered as the mojuba sound. being capable of such a musical sense, it was no wonder that the other mojuba family members nick solé, sven weisemann and oracy welcomed stereociti very warm. so if you are new to the world of mojuba, please tune in and enjoy the journey! kawasaki is a timeless piece of music, equipped with everything you need for an outstanding album experience. it will take you by the hand from the very first moments and will be there for you second by second, minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day until you let it go

next up on deep vibes comes sascha dive with his killer remixes of matthew dears >little people (black city)<. originally released on spectral sound (spc 101) as a digital-only package a vinyl edition had to follow due to public demand. for maximum sound quality the 20 minute version got shortened to a 15 minute >vinyl cut< (a1), while the >dub remix< comes in its original form on the flip-side (b1). sascha dive and matthew dear met on the road a few years back. in 2008 matthew dear featured a remix by the deep vibes boss on his watergate mix-compliation. when they played together in munich in august 2010 dear asked dive, if he wanted to do a remix for his upcoming album. the only condition dear asked him for was that it had to be the wildest and most crazy remix that dive could possibly do. little people (black city) is the probably strongest song of matthew dears recently released album black city. sascha dives remixes are on heavy rotation and played by a wide range of djs. make sure you get this joint in the box!

the -makeovers- project is a compilation of some of claudes best re-twists, some of which are so far removed they can almost be considered original works. this special edition vinyl includes one of the most sought after remixes, -warpaint- originally by pocket 808 in australia, vonstroke turned this into a late night anthem in 2007. played by techno djs, dubstep djs, and everyone in between this track was never cut to vinyl until now. on the flip side claude remixed the nublu orchestra out of new york. he was never completely happy with the original version of the remix and hes gone back and re-made it into a very special piece of music including a new vocal sample from his wife aundy who also did the vocal effects in whos afraid of detroit? this collection was put together with the theme that a remix can be an inspiring starting point for an entirely new piece of music. these are two of the deeper and darker remixes but we think you agree they are also very special.

played by sven vaeth! musik und kochen gehoert zusammen. so auch bei dem neuen label amuse gueule aus mecklenburg vorpommern. amuse gueule kommt aus dem franzoesischen und bedeutet >kleiner gruß aus der kueche<. voller vielfallt und mundgerecht serviert, sind diese kleinen koestlichkeiten handwerkliche meisterwerke. so auch bei der musik von amuse gueule. delikate kreationen, ausgewogen und doch leicht, mit liebe und leidenschaft zubereitet, werden sie der ohrenschmaus der hoerer und djs sein. ob pikant oder sueß, hier kommt auf den teller was spaß macht. auf der ersten veroeffentlichung zeigen uns jules und jazper sowie oliver schories ihr koennen und bereiten uns ein delikates schmankerle zu. elegant abgeschmeckter detroit techno mit ungeheuren flaechigen noten und edlen aromen für die sinne. bon appetit!

in just a matter of months, life and death has swiftly established itself as purveyors of quality contemporary dance music, made by artists who would undoubtedly make anyone s short list of who i d like to invite to my afterparty . it seems only fitting then that with their newest release they ve recruited the undisputed kings of late night mayhem and madness for a paen tribute to that beautiful party after the party, the continuation of all things good and twisted.. the afterparty itself. not to take the issue of such a joyful celebration lightly, dop has gone on secret missions over the last 6 months, quietly (and often not so quietly) infiltrating afterparties worldwide and secretly extracting pituitary secretions from the rowdiest party goers at each of them. they then took these secretions, burned them in a special voodoo ceremony and immediately went into the studio to create a fitting tribute to the after-hours festivities we all hold so dear. once that was complete, friends were invited and even more deviants came to the party for some dirty late night remix action. clockwork (who s recently released it s you again on hot creations has already been the soundtrack to many an after party) are here, french wolf+lamb collaborator le loup is here, mas collective (who recorded on seminal nyc label strictly rhythm) is here and marius & david are here too.. everybody giving it their own special flavor. what an afterparty indeed.

with its corroded, live recorded sound and relentless machinedrum, le coq is a trip to the shadowy, not to say drunk side of dance music. as an acid statement this track is right on the money without ever submitting to any ground rules of vintage acid. truly envelope-pushing electronic wizardry with a dark edge. stripped down to a bare minimum, the flip side hollywood goblin evokes the linear pulse of early body music, while the lead synthesizer adds a touch of cabaret voltairesque arpeggio magic. universal rejection was established in stockholm, sweden in 2011. the label is the collective effort of a closed circle of friends sharing the vision of a parallel universe trough raw, down to the core electronic dancemusic. every new release is a code. it represents a piece of what universal rejection is, and proves that the label will be in constant flux while at the same time always remaining true to itself.

spring 2006 was both cruel and exciting. radiating hot helsinki nights, too much light and vivid, restless dreams about music. while chucking down a glass of cheap brandy in a local bar the idea finally materialized: lets start a record label! a label that would bring people together. proud people. people thinking of music. people doing their own thing in their own way in their own basements. and most importantly, people who understood the meaning of space between notes. after 5 years, 16 records, 85 tracks and 44 artists from 13 countries it goes without saying that those restless dreams became reality. and so did the music.

patrick lindsey is no new comer . active in the techno world since more than a decade , releasing music on labels like terminal m , kanzleramt , kling klong , sci_tec to name a few . so when davide squillace and luca bacchetti received a demo from the german producer , they were really impatient to open the zip file and discover what was inside . the two discovered a four track ep full of analogue synths , organic beats and grooooove . so here is hideout ninth reference : get up and bounce ep by patrick lindsey . it all starts with > what i remember < a very strong anthem with a disco funk loop background and deep vocals by k. mason. the title track > get up and bounce < is next with its hypnotic >get up< voice snipet on top of a shuffled semi acoustic groove full of cow bells and snare drums. third track of the ep is named lockruf , evolving from a jazz sample thru vocal snipets , crazy drum rolls and saxo hooks. the last track of the ep is schleifkraft where a straight to the point chicago groove is topped with some more vocals , a very bouncy bass line and analogue synth sounds . a new reference in the hideout catalogue , four new techno tracks soon to become classics !

since decadence in june 2010 and seven eps released this year, dame music is a continuous story of success and has established itself in the underground music scene. the triumph of bloody marys >arabesque< ep on national radios was a turning point for the label which has defined its musical identity, a modern genre of electronic music blended with a touch of rock, disco, classic or new wave influences. last hits sierra sams >queen of spade< ep and komatons >dehunt< ep are an excellent representation of the dame-music signature. the artwork of the label has also seen a significant evolution by the quality of its covers and teasers which fully fits with the music. to celebrate its first anniversary and give a first overview of the label imprint, dame-music is proud to present potluck, a special compilation of unreleased tracks, produced by five duos (one of the dame-musics artists, plus one of their friend). bloody mary got this concept to gather the dame-music family (mostly consisted by marys berlin based artists and friends) to work hand in hand with the music and artwork. they shared talent, creativity, emotions and ideas.

nice price deal !!! is it possible... we have returned to one of our favorite vocal projects from the label that was released earlier this year from steal vybe and the timeless vocals of alexis simmons. it was time to give >is it possible< some remix treatment and we called on our good freind rocco to lay down his deep vibes and we think it was a match made in heaven. we will let the music speak for itself. play this record loud!

>dysfunction<, hannulelauris first ep on i m a cliche goes beyond the dreamy, cosmic atmosphere of their previous releases and remixes on other eurodisco labels. the duos new sound still sends us floating but with an edgier, more toxic ride. hannu and lauri aka hannulelauri created a track for i m a cliche, a remix of botoxs hit >blue steel<. this track inspired the label to make more room for the finnish duo and bring their new music into its discography.
