nile delta is dancefloor wizard joel dickson, former member of riot in belgium and current member of cutters dynamic-duo, voltage. having spent the past year neck-deep in other peoples music – it was only a matter of time before this, nile deltas debut ep emerged, shimmering, from the water. channel sounds like a late 70s house party. except the house is actually a warehouse and the late 70s are actually the early 90s. an almost paradoxical blend of filtered piano stabs, party whistles, endless delays, a squelching acid lead, horns, bendy-breakdowns, you name it. channel sounds like moodymann at his rawkus best. no party will be complete without this house gem. all this on the flip, sees cut copy bassist ben browning provide an otherworldly vocal hook over nile deltas inescapable rhythm. and the crawling baseline will have your hips doing obscene things. guaranteed. remixes include longtime favourites chicken lips, who take their invincible track record on an italian holiday – and tornado wallace who takes us deep, deep into the night.

rising out of helsinkis local electro-pop-punk scene in 2007, sisters emma and mia kemppainens musical vehicle lcmdf (le corps mince de fran coise) was quickly picked up by blog gers and music fans across the globe. their incred ibly vibrant, left field pop gained them count less fans, earn ing them the top spot on the hype machine, out-ranking even kanye west.

now a full time member of australian super group empire of the sun and 1/3 of the genius of the swiss we honestly dont know how sid found the time to make this heated late night gem. all we do know is arthur russell was integral in his life when he turned it out. echoed moans and whispers, chunky bass line, percussion, arrangement and everything else involved in this 8 minute and 22 second burner are all by the shirtless gentleman of the night you now know as sidwho? session victim is matthias reiling and hauke freer, their house and techno adventures on delusions of grandeur and retreat records have been rinsed out many a time at our future classic parties and all around the world so we knew it was time to get a remix. some guys and gals might think this is too deep or minimal, you just need a bigger sound system!

>i keep asking myself where they take all that brilliant music from. its just as if somebody had poked a bees nest and then it all burst out. i feel deeply connected to the pampa style…< (terry hogann, the musical mistress, 10/2010). as was to be expected, pampa is steadily developing into a platform for cross-border electronic dance music. each pampa release sounds different from the previous and still pampa remains a conclusive musical planet. this is all the more surprising in the case of pampa005, which features two completely different artists: side a: nathan fake - xmas rush having reportedly recorded his track >xmas rush< in his london studio during a jam session, nathan fake (border community, traum, saw) has turned in a total brainfuck. its mercylessly exaggerated, psychedelic, inexorable, and at the same time sweet and heart-warming. a very rare mixture. unique in its consistency, we havent heard anything like it since the 90s. its so nice and overwhelming to have your ears exercised the right way again. evergreen… side aa: dj koze pays tribute to michael smith - >mi cyaan believe it< in the meantime, dj koze has moved on to completely different spheres. once again, he astonishes his public with an extremely danceable version of michael smiths >mi cyaan believe it<. having originally started off as a digital error, and recorded within a single night, this tune recalls the ruthlessness, rawness and revolutionary energy of public enemy

originally released on chain reaction in 1996, pelons >no stunts< harks back to a time when the nowadays so gladly used and over-used term >dub techno< was still waiting to be found. but thats secondary. the main thing is: >no stunts< is here again. with addictive, heavily-transformed and echoed synth sounds connected to a strong and pulsating bass line, it is exactly that type of no-frills techno you just cannot stop listening to. now restored and remastered, the a-side contains an edit taken from the 1998 chain reaction cd >various: compiled…< - previously unavailable on vinyl. as if this wouldnt be enough advocacy for vinyl as the agent of choice, the flipside holds 30 locked grooves extracted from the original recording session of no stunts that you wont necessarily find in the track itself and most definitely not as downloads. especially enjoyable with two copies. the effects can last forever

jan driver “gain reaction : you might know jan driver from his famous techno life in the 90ies or maybe for his label grandpetrol, his extraordinary skills in german folk music, high quality mixing for siriusmo, jesse rose and modeselektor or last but not least also from his wmc 2010 #1 hit “tellyfoam” which was featured on the bnr miami noize sampler. here is the first maxi of berlin multi-action-talent and friend jan driver, presenting a selection of 4 tracks including “gain reaction , a good fun heavy bass bleep champ, “cs40m , a slower powerful jam that creates an energetic build up of pink noise and 303 sounds for the very special atmosphere, >hornetbeef<, a tech-house at its best and >mecafunk<, darker techno, big sounds, the right track to close this magnificient production of these 4 tracks. what more do you need

2010 repress ! paul ritch and his quartz music label return with a very special treat! the first release on quartz was pauls own >split ep<. the response to the music on this ep was incredible. not only from specialists, but also from the public. how do you improve on the package? well, draft in one of the biggest names in world of techno to not only provide a remix, but take the two biggest tracks from the release, combine them, and remix the mutant off-spring. indeed! this is just what dubfire has done. taking >walk the line< and >split<, melting them together, and then reworking them to provide what will, from now, and forever more, be known as.... the >split the line - dubfire mega remix.< 2008 proved to be a wonderful year for dubfire. his releases and remixes filled the top spots in many end of year charts. no more than they deserved. his >dios< & >diablo< tracks alongside oiiver huntemann were instant smashes, and his remixes took him to a whole new level. radio slaves >grindhouse<, minologues >jamaica<, gregor treshers >a thousand nights< & booka shades >charlotte< all received the dubfire treatment, and all, went on to be smash hits. 2009 is set to be even bigger and better for everyone involved in this e.p.. is that possible? just watch this space!

great audiophile pressing of 2 sought after cosmic disco tracks on this re-issue pressing. >the violence wont stop< is pressed for the first time on a full 12 inch side. the original albatros release was only pressed on a 7 inch. the rare and obscure space art track on the b side goes for around $200 on the bay. limited edition of 300. dont sleep!

we would like to say it was all part of a big bombastic plan… the biggest selling bearfunk artist, a top song, the prague philharmonic, 40 piece strings and some great remixes all to celebrate bearfunks 50th release, but alas, it was not! bfk050 is actually the 67th single release on bearfunk. the strings were done in the lunch-break downtime of a session in prague with strings-chappie, john bryan. make good music and occasionally, just occasionally, good things happen to you! so the knife-edge karma of indie record labels flows.

the recent time and space machine album released on tirk caused quite a stir. received by fans, press and pundits with a bright glowing prodigiousness, we just had to have one final foray into the 12 inch single department. the albums title track set >phazer to stun< was always a favourite with pulsating krautrock influences, nicely melded with some dirt cheap farfisa organ, freakbeat drumming and (of course) plenty of phazer.

12inch full of music with a definite sense of place. eerie synthesiser pulses, funk-infused drums and languid guitar-scapes have been part of the musical topology of düsseldorf since the early seventies: and this particular release pays full tribute to that legacy, with jagd auf den hirsch (hunt for the stag) comprising an eerie piece of swampy lazer-forest rock. this sound is also a modern day staple of düsseldorfs nightlife at the salon des amateurs, a small bar attached to the kunsthalle art gallery that is an oasis of hypnotic disco nightmares. the salon is where der räuber und der prinz made their first live appearance in 2008 (when the original composition for moogwalzer was debuted), and both members of the band frequently play there: ralf beck with his bodyrocking club act unit 4 and sebastian as half of art-rock duo noblesse oblige. meanwhile two of the guests on this release - detlef weinrich also known as toulouse lowtrax, contributing words about a ghostly maiden on moogwalzer, and thomas klein contributing drums to jagd auf den hirsch - are both original members of the quintessential düsseldorf act kreidler. salon dj resident vladimir ivkovic also had a hand in the creative clarion call for the jagd auf den hirsch (hunt for the stag). to complete the circle, düsseldorfs new resident and desolat mainstay guti wrote his remix in the middle of the night in buenos aires, as a kind of letter to his new home-to-be. there we have it: a true tribute to a city we love, with tracks for the dancefloor as well as moments of melancholic contemplation.

hailing from the free swinging hills of san francisco, established dj and producer alland byallo has created his own unique sound out of a love for deep, soulful house combined with more edgy techno moments. from his own successful nightlight label he has released a quality catalogue including his debut artist album last year. of course it was only a matter of time until his talents were noticed by poker flat boss steve bug, and the results are this briliant 2 tracker, which also marks alland‘s arrival in his new home of berlin. welcome to town mr byallo! ‚discovaries‘ has a healthy amount of berlin‘s reduced techno affinity rooted within its phasing, growing p-funk waves. tense, moody and of course drenched with attention to detail, this is a grower in the true poker flat style. the sunken, murkier undertones of ‚shipwrecked‘ begin as a darker moment in techno, however gradually unfold and surface into a shining, tripped out afterhours anthem.

exactly one year ago, stimming bought us the exquisite >funk with me<. a production, created together with south african talent lazarus mathebula. having become firm friends, an invite was extended to lazarus to come to hamburg and spend time in the studio. once again, the result of those sessions is outstanding. with >change<, and through the vocals of lazarus, both artists have built a musical bridge linking hamburg and johannesburg. a beautifully exotic production, as we have come to expect from stimming, with an added african touch. completing the ep are three brand new stimming productions for you delectation. musically outstanding, with his trademark-out-there-touch. this is yet another stimming release, not to be missed. enjoy!

horse feathers has been on the road for the majority of 2010 following the april release of their third full-length, >thistled spring<. they closed their record release show in their hometown of portland, or with a cover of nirvanas >drain you< so powerful that the whole town was still talking about it days later! krs made them jump into the studio between tours to commit this phenomenon to vinyl, and the result is this 7 inch: >drain you< on the a side and a new original, >bonnet of briars<, on the b side.
comes with code for download of free mp3s of this release.

2010 has seen some juicy, off-the-wall techno/electronic vinyl goodies from the head space of little nobody, including the acclaimed >metropolis how?< and >robota< records - with remixes by the likes of james ruskin, justin berkovi, inigo kennedy, dj hi-shock, si begg, patrick pulsinger and steve stoll. but its the originator of the tracks who continues to push the perimeters, recently leading hi-shock, the prolific innovator behind the essential elektrax empire, to suggest that honestly, i think you are at least a couple of years ahead in your musical vision compared to other producers. little nobodys alter ego andrez bergen has also had his head buried this year in the creation of a hardboiled/noir/sci-fi novel called >tobacco-stained mountain goat<, and it was in the midst of this project - with these heady influences - that the get away from it all 12-inch project came to light. thus we got on board bas mooy (planet rhythm/audio assault) and dave tarrida (tresor/musick) to do the two scintillating re-takes here, which are downright brilliant. meanwhile little nobodys troll, on the flip-side, lives up to its claim: its hardboiled and devastatingly dirty electronica. all up, think streetwise, smack-your-glitch-up techno - dark, uber-bassy, dirty and pulsating - just the way we like it, with sardonic samples and a freestyle, postmodern attitude thats invigorating. matched up with the cool artwork by marcin markowski, this is an essential slab of wax for 4:00 am head-caving techno!

with friends and cohorts like these, you can’t be sad for long. after the longest and best-ever and final closing, the saddest, best-ever and most personal record on the bar25 label is here. as pure dumb numerical luck would have it, it is – naturally – the 25th release. and, we’re almost proud to say, it’s strictly family business. the closing record speaks more to the spirit of the bar than any words, spoken or written, ever could. every track unique yet well-rounded, somewhere between universal and personal. awash with emotion, as though the sound machines had begun to breathe.

this brooklyn duo, trap.avoid, create this smooth soundscape of mesmerizing electronica that draws clear influence from the likes of giorgio moroder, orbital, chicago house, etc. remixes ranging from sample-funk to disco-punk from in flagranti, populette, and 33hz fill out the release. aeroplane was rocking this on tour in oct!

incl rmxs by sascha dive & s catt!! it seems almost ridiculous to refer to zoe xenia as a label regular, when we are only on release number 12. maybe? but zoe is without a doubt, one of the our key artists. zoe first featured on bass culture with her >let the music play< ep in december last year, and whilst it may have been only our 4th release, it was somewhat of a definitive one..

two dreamy indie-rock edits by night plane finally show up on wax – the first a haunting slice of deep house replete thats been melting hearts since soul clap dropped it at wmc. it comes paired with a near-ambient dub remix by g$ from w+l that sounds like sade in outer space. >its always the same< takes a throwback sensitive-man vocal with a soft rock touch and layers it into the trippy beached-out chugger it was meant to be.

superb new ep by one of düsseldorfs finest – john gazoo! get ready for some salsoul fuelled disco drama on >what happened< and enter the time warp to take a trip back to the days when manhattans time square wasnt transformed to disney world yet.

mensahs debut release on the hench imprint, pulse 80s, turned heads with its stylish production and out-of-the-box approach. his follow-up release, >untitled future funk ep<, was all the talk on the blogs and his remix of baby ds >let me be your fantasy< has been hailed as one of the hallmark dubstep tracks of 2010. with each new release mensahs studio skills and fresh thinking stand out ever clearer. this latest offering will be no disappointmentË

first on decks .de !!! sa007 sees perc and modern heads create the first collaborations between these two core stroboscopic artefacts artists. the result is a punishing hybrid of percs dubstep tendencies and modern heads cutting techno. a-side >mendax< is cavernous. built upon solid dub foundations, it spills over into grinding, metallic territory. if the titles to be believed it takes inspiration from the shady world of lies and deceit. the atmosphere seems to agree, theres certainly something mendacious at work here. b1 takes the eps atmosphere and adds abrasion. in >percdax< cold, hard percussion is layered over a bed of warm dub. closer >moddax< errs on the eerie. it skulks, is full of sticky bleeps and the result is unnervingly dubbed out. all three track titles share the same suffix and if this indicates that they also share one quality its that theyre best heard in the glinting shadows of a club just before day break. sa007 was craftily mastered by artefacts mastering, berlin.

with his latest album >rain< paris based dj and producer alessandro russo aka slok was able to follow up in quality and complexity to his in 2009 released tracks >freak< and >funky finger< on circle digital this year. now he comes around with his next tune >roccos hard scene<. hermanez, who recently rocked circle music with his >locomotive/snarey business< release produced the ten minutes monster remix. played by: gregor tresher, bart skils, danny howells, brothers vibe, ramon tapia, kaiserdisco, pig & dan, toni rios, hugo, gel abril, daniel sanchez, slam, phonogenic, emerson, anthony pappa, thyladomid, taras van de voorde, mashtronic, laurent n garnier, wally lopez & many more

after five years of experimenting with a string of different singers, chromatics introduced ruth radelet as the lead actress to star in their films in 2005. forever standing out from the crowd, chromatics imagined the soft rock focus of hall & oates stretched over a fleetwood mac beat. trading the dancefloor for gorgeous chords & melancholic strings. they lived where it was always late & neon lights glimmered across the wet streets. this record archives studio work between 2004 & 2006 leading up to the now infamous >night drive< album.

pascal pinon, das sind jofridur und asthildur, zwillinge aus island, die bereits im zarten alter von 14 mit zwei freunden eine band gr?ndeten. die beiden mºdchen klaubten sich die instrumente zusammen, ?bten in ihrem zimmer und traten mal hier, mal dort auf. ihre musik - ein mix aus neofolk und lo-fi-pop - klingt sch?chtern und zur?ckhaltend, was sicher auch an den d?nnen wºnden ihres zimmers liegt. die songs indes beweisen gro?e klasse, kein wunder also, dass pascal pinon mit ihrem deb?talbum f?r den islºndischen musikpreis als newcomer des jahres 2009 nominiert waren. die drei-track-single >i wrote a song< gibt einen vorgeschmack auf das schaffen der beiden.

repress - folk-jazz composer/arranger arthur verocai was born in rio de janeiro. he has created challenging arrangements and compositions for brazilian artists jorge ben, ivan lins, leny andrade and gal costa. in 1972 verocai recorded a self-titled solo lp. it is a stunningly innovative effort. it puts verocai into a rarified field with the heavy string oriented music of charles stepney, david axelrod and frank zappa. released in a period marked by the brazilian military government, the album fared poorly. following its re-issue in 2003 the album has become a highly influential oft sampled classic (see ludacris, mf doom and little brother). the performance of this seminal 1972 record in its entirety brought the capacity luckmann crowd to a stand still. according to verocai, >he had never played the record, alive or dead!< the music has been mixed by verocai himself in rio. history turned on its head and musical justice served.

cultivated electronics is proud to present its 5th release of the year with a remix ep of electro legend carl a finlow aka silicon scally. the track >process< was originally featured cultivated electronics ep 004 and is now re-worked by label head sync 24 and electros flavour of the moment, finish duo morphology. sync 24 opens up the ep with a dark techy interpretation of the original track. chopped up voices, quirky analogue bass lines and spooky atmospheres rolling along at 135 bpm are the order of the day. hot on the heels of two storming eps on abstract forms and an impending long player on zyntax motor city, morphology (aka crc) turn in an analogue machine funk remix combining dark and trippy tones with subtle melodies, sharp beats and tight sequences.

sehou provides a prime piece of forward-looking nostalgia for metrolines latest release - the cirkus ep. up and coming talented producer from the south of italy, sehou was the man behind the massive track -she makes me wanna dance- released on all inn limited thats been hammered by ricardo villalobos in pretty much all of his sets for the past year. the brutal bass groove of cirkus calls to mind classic era r&s, its choppy vocals and skittering percussion give the track a raw funk, while its smooth pads add a reassuring, warm flow. untitled to her is a relentless robert armani-style workout, with a hint of chi town bubble and funk. driving chords and simple drum patterns give the tune serious momentum, while plenty of breaks in the rhythm and machine gun buildups make sure you dont lose the groove. romanian producer cristi cons aka case sensitive. after dark interpretation is a gloriously meandering, fluid rework. its subterranean bass bumps and heavily filtered synths give the track a brilliantly disorientating feel, while its tense and tight arrangement bring a tense energy.

this is a remix package of legendary 80s kraut rock record >moebius, plank, neumeier – zero set< which have been influenced to many artist .zero set was produced by the half of cluster >dieter moebius<, the drummer of guruguru >manfred neumeier< and conny plank who were acclaimed as one of the best recording producer. conny have worked for kraftwerk, ash ra temple and name a few. original ricardo villalobos remix is 33:38min long. remix is split to pt1&2 to the vinyl release. there are no set date of the digital release at the moment. please look for vinyl!!

throughout a recording career spanning almost two decades, dj stingray aka. sherard ingram a.k.a. urban tribe has consistently avoided the mainstream to create a musical world of his own. responsible for the early techno classic >covert action< on retroactive (reissued on planet e), ingram was joined by carl craig, anthony shakir and kenny dixon jr. (moodymann) for urban tribe s debut album >the collapse of modern culture< on mo wax and their latest project >program 1-12< released on kenny dixon jrs label mahogani music and the recent >loyal opposition< releases on planet e. touring as drexciya s official assault dj, stingray collaborated with james stinson for the >other people place ft. mystic tribe a.i.< project on clone in 2002. his two recent albums (>authorized clinical trials< and >acceptable side effects<) and singles for rephlex have remained true to their drexciyan descent, not through imitation but through remorseless innovation in electro aesthetics.

italoboyz are being remixed by material artists - its like friends,lovers and family for the track >dont talk< that was the main anthem of summer 2010. remixed in the smoothest way possible by the glitz (voltage), simone tavazzi (playmobil) and basti grub (desolat).

mit ynk hat tenderpark einen spannenden newcomer gesignt, der mit live eingespielten grooves ein wahres feuerwerk an drum-variationen abbrennt, die ein sehr abwechslungsreiches, warmes live-feeling erzeugen. auf sunday sermon herrscht so eine konstant brodelnde, unterschwellige spannung, die immer kurz vor dem ausbruch zu stehen scheint. mit dem saenger eddy pirax hat ynk den herrlich souligen track takin u back aufgenommen, der sehr viel klassisches house-feeling verströmt. und twistin erinnert uns in seiner knochentrockenen konsequenz fast schon an eine runtergepitchte dancemania-platte. naja, nicht ganz natuerlich, aber wenn ihr den track hoert, wisst ihr, was wir meinen.
