some things seem to have a symbiotic relationship. prime example: a low-key electronic soundscape that leaves room for roaming thoughts, inhabited by an ethereal voice that colours in the musical silhouettes conjured in the minds eye. for his first ep since the >mango remixes< in 2008, sascha funke calls upon russian nina kraviz to make a feature appearance. with her releases on rekids, b77 and underground quality, this young woman has brought a rare combination of talents to bear: she sings, plays and produces with an equally astounding level of expertise. so what we have here is an encounter between of germanys most incisive techno producers and a singer of considerable charisma.

catz n dogz are back with their second full length artist album on mothership. the follow-up to 2008s >stars of zoo< is a break from convention and a further exploration of genres by this amazing polish duo. hence the new albums title, >escape from zoo< the guys break free from the cage and run wild in a wilderness full of street bass, disco, r&b, deep house, hip-hop and more.
this preview ep is a teaser of two of the tracks from the album especially built for the club. >warsaw by night< is a rough and rugged tech burner that sounds like detroit via poland. and the dirty version adds and extra bit of growl to the equation for those who really want to throw it down.
>i’m the one who’s crazy< is a booming barbecue shaker that mixes elements of hip-hop, soul and house into a low end killer.
the guys have come a long way since their start as the group 3 channels from szczecin, poland and we hope you like these as much as we do.

nice price deal !!! glasgow based automaton uk makes his hum+haw debut with the genre defying >british steel<, a mesmerising lo-fi-dub excursion that resonates deep, dark and pure. automaton uk has previously released on 7th sign recordings and is one of glasgows finest djs and purveyors of fine electronic funk. the immaculate selections on his >pipe & slippers< post club mixes are the stuff of folklore in the city. his recent remix of alex smoke’s >lux+< was a sign of things to come. he decimated the original and constructed a mutant hip hop apocalypse of future bass.>british steel< is equally innovative but more cohesive and spellbinding. this track is an atmospheric masterpiece that digs underground to reveal a killer variant that fuses dubstep with fly-lo style electronic manipulation.

usually i disagree with almost anything fashion designers have to say, but when i was compiling this ep i remembered this quote by the iconic german designer and finally exactly understood what he means. i realized why i react so strongly to den haans music. like proper italo disco its so wrong it must be right. the two glaswegian producers do everything right when it comes to pushing buttons on the dancefloor. to follow their releases on dissident, optimo music and their own imprint courier of death, they have put together this ep that sums up their impeccable feel for hi-nrg / italo fueled dancefloor madness.

leena017 witnesses dapayk solo in full bloom and with space to breathe. a-side >berlin bedlam< builds up layers upon layers of synths, paving the way for a break out of melodic charms that arrive. its a cinematic sound scape that could be played at any number of stages over the course of the night. b-side >fawlty< is equally as melodic, but certainly fulfills the role of the calm after the storm. minimal, but with musical flare, its the perfect companion

the mighty d knox graces sect with a second ep, >looking through your eyes<.
>at the beginning< is a journey in the way good techno tracks should be. a low-slung groove forms the foundation as strings build, creating composite chords then descending into darker territory.
>if i never knew you< continues the unique and oh-so-delicately balanced melodic sequences, while >out there< is straight up techno funk of the first order. if these guitar licks dont move ya on the dancefloor, you have problems we cant help you with.
>on my way< is a gift for the more experienced techno dj. tricky beats work to create something like a latin shuffle, rounded off by a sonic mind manifesto vocal.

it is incredible and a little unnerving to discover that rio padices first forays in production came as recently as 2007. 2008 saw him publish his first productions on mosaik musik, which were of a more minimal, techno nature. 2009 saw the successful collaboration with metroline limited, which has spawned a a number of releases and remixes, most notably his road to alberqueque and twin peaks eps. the same year also saw rio join forces with massimo di lena under their new alias >horacio< to release two ep s on the highly acclaimed raum musik and cynosure labels.with rio currently devoting his time to learning the production techniques of the 90s, blending the use of software, hardware and sampling, his productions, unlike so much of the current trend for looking back, have a mature and studied classic sound and feel to them

hoola is the new single taken from archie bronson outfits recent album, coconut. hoola will be available on two remix 12inchs with exclusive mixes from moscow, house of david, motor city drum ensemble, and 6th borough projects two versions of the album track chunk. coconut, archie bronson outfits third album, is a record full of deep riffs, spaced loops and the sound of a band revelling in both their individuality and intensity. coconut is a record of barely contained ambition and ecstatic overload. the album was produced by tim goldsworthy (lcd soundsystem, the rapture, hercules & love affair) and the result is a wildness of musical vision, given the freedom to be let absolutely loose.
