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.

new york, chicago, detroit? nop, boring shizzle!! just try miami!! sun, butts, flamingos and music! only an idiot can think this way! the bar is for sure the answer to the question: what is the most important part of the house? so what is more obvious than crowning a house-track with a vocal by the person who enhances life to the bar and to the party as well as the dj? luna city express wants to build a monument for the ones bearing this responsible task and say thank you, together with enliven deep acoustics. they want to pay homage to the person every visitors welfare depends on! so just imagine the bartender not only leverages your drinkable luck but also sings for you! not only sing, just utterly make the party to an unforgettable experience which makes the dancefloor to a trivial idea. everybody who is pleasured by this record is forced by associations which will make her or him hugging the person behind the bar!!

pablo mandelbrot claims to be from bar harbor, maine on the north-eastern coast of the u.s.a. when asked about his upbringing he mentions various occupations including sardine canner and quota negotiator as well as hinting at some dark years spent working in the aqua-culture industry. about his music he says little, summing up his productions with the cryptic declaration: >disco is a deep sea<. we are not entirely sure where or when the two tracks on this 12inch were recorded and the only information from mandelbrot himself is that he has sometimes collaborated with the late conny plankton (who also engineered these two tracks), a legendary figure of the maine/nova scotia electronic music scene. pablo also insists that both tracks are >under exclusive license from lob-starr records<, although we have never heard of this label and their representatives have yet to contact us. we hope you enjoy these two slices of hypnoboogie disco, smoked, cured and de-boned for your convenience.

bear newcomer roberto auser has his debut album inbound on bearfunk. whilst we prepare for that gem to drop roberto has teamed up with fellow dutchman alden tyrell for their disco house hybrid blondes and brunettes. alden has had a series of fine releases on the clone and moustache labels, here he fuses his accomplished style with the electronic wizardry of roberto. each of them contributes a spanking remix. alden is tasked with dancefloor operations and he duly delivers with his 4/4 drums, rolling analog basslines and main room swing. roberto goes for the bar mix which tones down the swank but adds in slick percussion and analog stabs for a early set highlight. label chief bear stevie kotey contributes his own version. this time around the real drums and bass guitars have been sidelined in favour of linntastic drum programming and sequenced synth lines. the roberto auser album secret carnaval is out on bearfunk in spring 2010

after part 3 of cocoons 10inch series, which was focussing on the british techno scene, we now return to germany with the fourth ep. the frankfurt-born markus fix grew up at the decks of helium bar, is now at home behind the decks of cocoonclub frankfurt and has been providing us with his innovative reinterpretation of house on labels such as cecille and oslo for the last three years.

two and a half years after their debut lp, 23 seconds, dazzled critics and lit up dance floors worldwide, cobblestone jazz are back with a powerhouse new album that captures their live-in-the-studio energy like never before. a mixture of heady, jazz-inspired house grooves and below-the-belt analog funk, it raises the bar for electronic dance music in 2010.titled the modern deep left quartet, the record marks an important addition to the cobblestone jazz lineup, as the trio of mathew jonson, danuel tate and tyger dhula brings aboard colin de la plante (aka the mole). de la plante is no newcomer to the cobblestone crew: the four musicians have been playing together for nearly 15 years, since their first performances in small-town victoria, british columbia, and theyve all shared the stage as the modern deep left quartet

prepare to enter the sombrero galaxy. journey to the centre of the sun, the debut release from lovefingers highly anticipated imprint esp institute, is a collaborative effort from londoner jonny nash (discosession) and dutchman tako reyenga. the two met years ago whilst jonny was working and living in tokyo and tako made his way over to dj. around the same time, lovefingers linked up with these two and a musical family had formed. that being told, its only natural for sombrero galaxy to find its home and represent the face of the esp insitute. journey to the centre of the sun is a dive into a moody, visceral and ethereal headspace brought to life through shimmering synthesizers, swirling guitars and a chugging bassline coupled with live percussion, clearly setting the bar higher than the bulk of contemporary electronic music. on the b side, the stallions (lovefingers and lee douglas) reinterpret the track with optimism, nicely complimenting the original with a light and cloudy yet driving house version. this is the music of dreams, keep an eye on esp institute in this new decade.

d julzs bass culture records has undoubtedly been one of the major highlights of 2009. in just four releases the french label has set the bar for all others in terms of quality and 2010 is looking to be a groundbreaking year for them. the second release of 10 showcases the label head keeping it detroit, and a bit in the grey area - with the lov is easy release by anonym. anonym. the one who is anonymous. with releases on anonymous release, archipel, bloop, pariter, fof, and sushitech. anonym has also contributed the scoring soundtrack to works on display at the museum of moving images in nyc for pbfb. according to the man himself, i am anonym the one who is anonymous. i am anonymous because in any popular music form prone to be ransacked by the egos of its participants, a state of grace is best achieved and sustained by pursuing a life of anonymity. that preserves its creators from the warping stare of the media and its public in the process. his sound is tempered with grace & style, with a feeling of - detroit is my heart and often my songs sing her praises. i have known her all my life.

2003 classic!

one of the most in demand tracks from the >technique< album finally gets a full single release complete with re-fixes from prosumer and kruse & nuernberg. ernestos vocal fully lends itself to the prosumer soundsignature, his mix floats and weaves around ernestos vocal, peaking around his own chords before stripping things back to bare essentials and rebuilding like only he can. the kruse& nuernberg mix is hypnotic, percussive old school house music at its best. they take a small snippet of the vocal and build the groove relentlessly until the whole room is shaking. achim brandenburg aka prosumer lives in berlin where he is resident at panorama bar, weaving together the finest blend of soulful house sounds. an expert in classic chicago house and detroit techno, his first release was in 2004 on 240 volts, followed by playhouse and ostgut, where he released his debut album with murat tepeli in 2008. separately, hamburg based florian kruse & nils nûrnberg have created some of the most interesting deep house around in the past few years, with early highlights incl nils >caught a glimpse< on 8bit, and florians >love hurts< release on om records. since then, as solo producers, but more importantly together as kruse & nûrnberg they have climbed closer to the tree-top with their unique brand of mouth-watering underground house.

men in trees are back with their third ep on its own platform audio parish. this time they take us with a healthy portion of groove to mango city. once there, we meet barfly, this track draws us immediately into its spell with its deep character and hypnotic groove and the insane vocal part in the break. this give us finally the feel we are actually in a smoky bar in the middle of mango city. this is an amazing super warm and rollin piece of house music. alabasta on the flip, with its bright and massive sounds, is a dry forward rolling peak-time-mover. this track is jaunty fun that will get the crowd moving for sure. return to mango city is the next killer release with the typical men in trees-groove, two different house tracks, which will provide a lot of dancefloor action.

rinse fms breakfast show host, dva is a producer with a unique take on the uk funky bug, blending the stiff 8-bar funk of grime with a super-supple rhythmic sensibility, sewing neon colours with a laid back precision into his tracks. >natty< is a prime example, drums stagger like they are about to topple over, squelchy bass synths lock together a tough tribal drum pattern, liquid metal trickles around in the mix, and these contrasting elements react with explosive results on the dancefloor. on >ganja<, a cartoonish ring-tone-friendly synth melody worms its way around tight soca-esque drums and housey organ stabs. factor in the depth-charge 808 subs, steel drums and sparingly used ragga chat and you ve got a technicolour hyperdub debut fresh for 2010.

the young producers from zuerich present their first 12 inch ep.
the original track, a smooth deephouse tune, is perfect for each warm up set.

anja schneider, laurent garnier, afekt, sebo k, martinez, seth troxler, ryan crosson, lee curtiss, dj yellow, slam, 2000andone, luca bachetti, raresh, okain, dj w!ld, agnes, marc romboy, ben watt, sascha funke, jimpster,.. djulzs bass culture records has undoubtedly been one of the major highlights of 2009. in just four releases the french label has set the bar for all others in terms of quality and 2010 is looking to be a groundbreaking year for them. first release of 10 sees the label head keeping it french with the ivory machine e.p. from arnaud le texier. ..todays e.p. opens with the title track. deep and hypnotic, its long atmospheric intro leads us to its key stabs, and the tougher kick drum. each sound is beautifully layered to create the complete opener…

the yore captain returns to his own yore imprint on the labels 21st release. shadow city presents different visions of funky house grooves. the a sides the y theme gets deeply moving with a funky house pulse before stoking the fire with the addition of speaking voices (trippingly intoning the q&a what are we doing this for? and the music), a move which single-handedly jumpstarts the track. after the voices appear, the grooves intensity escalates and plunges deeper, its gyroscopic house swing becoming more dizzying and torrential with each passing bar before coming to an acidy storming end. in its opening moments, shadow city opts for a deeper and more serenading vibe by comparison, but thats traded in for a slinkier attack at the three-minute mark that grows progressively more ferocious as the track makes its drastic upwards ascent. a trippin dangerous murder weapon to say the least. watch your heads! the b sides b2 track, mumbai dweller keeps the focus primarily on the bottom end, specifically a strutting tribal-house funk groove thats dragged even deeper by a throbbing bass undertow, adding dark chords to it, giving this ep a darker feeling towards the end. to sum it all up: this is raw house music at its best!

00deep celebrates another 10 years passing for uk label nrk music, a label that has always stuck true to the deep, underground house and techno sounds. part one has classic cuts from quentin harris the massive lets be young, kerri chandlers anthem bar a thym & the trackheadz timeless feel!!

after the first une release (monoblock/treplec) supported by many djs like mathias kaden, chris carrier, troy pierce, laurent garnier, seth troxler, franco cinelli we are coming again with une002 by zap - >mi amigo< + inxec remix.
zap immerses us squarely in its parallel dimension, a place where stuck-up sounds and elegant percussions coexist with a martian sub bass. curious scene to expose a slightly conventional instrument in a dancing floor, the bandoneon, which chopped with a sharp knife and served with mastery, manages to transform the track into a dizzy trip and full of surrealism.
inxec achieves to transmit the feeling of no gravity based on orbiting elements, volatile basses and open field sounds. as it goes it leads us through a space trip, capable of opening a gap in any type of session, which suddenly can turn into a space odissey with dyes of psychological thriller.
support: konrad black, richie hawtin, josh wink, cesare vs disorder, adam beyer, matt star, jens zimmermann, dan drastic, alex kid, brothers vibes, pheek, alland byallo, pablo roman (bar 25), sebastian wilck (watergate), marcus (weekend), kane roth, luciano esse, jeremy p. cauldfield...

stuttgart geh¥rt zwar nicht unbedingt zu den gr¥?ten st?dten in deutschland, aber mit sicherheit zu den sch¥nsten. au?erdem ist stuttgart das pflaster der vielleicht besten punk-, skin- und hardcoreszene in deutschland, bezogen auf den zusammenhalt und den antifaschistischen background. dar?ber hinaus ist stuttgart die heimat der freiboiter.
die band existiert bereits seit 1997. in der aktuellen besetzung seit 2001. der sound spiegelt alle m¥glichen einfl?sse wieder. punk, oi!, rock n roll, hardcore. nenn es einfach streetpunk, oder such dir selbst einen begriff aus. die teilweise politischen und sozialkritischen, aber auch ironischen und schlicht aus dem allt?glichen leben gegriffenen texte werden kombiniert mit treibenden riffs und eing?ngigen melodien.die produktion des albums ist der hammer 12 bzw. 14 richtig gute songs die es einem schwer machen nicht von anfang an mit zu gr¥hlen
denk ?ber die freiboiter was du willst. mit ihrer spielfreude und energie brauchen die f?nf jungs keinen vergleich zu scheuen. schon gar nicht mit irgendwelchen zweifelhaften, in die jahre gekommenen reunion-bands. dies wurde im in- und ausland, bei shows mit brigada flores magon, broilers, guerilla, heros & zeros, klasse kriminale, loikaemie, los fastidios, lurkers, lokalmatadore, miburo, the movement, oppressed, prowlers, peter and the test tube babies, sham 69, stage bottles, sidekick, subhumans, scrapy, u.k. subs, volxsturm etc. schon mehrfach unter beweis gestellt.
es w?re falsch die freiboiter als reine politische band zu bezeichnen, jedoch ist der begriff >antifascist oi!< nicht nur beiwerk, sondern fester bestandteil des selbstverst?ndnisses der band. das k¥nnen heutzutage wohl nur wenige bands aus dem so genannten streetpunk sektor von sich behaupten.gib ihnen etwas bier (besser nicht zu viel!), schn?r die stiefel und mach dich bereit f?r den sound aus motorcity stuttgart.

provoke recordings strikes back with a savage release, a 4 tracker by sxt a.k.a. tieum! the a side contains two uptempo vicious roaring tracks, the b side slows down a bit but brings you another 2 heavy kicking tracks with the well known tieum basses! quality ep!

voyeurrhythm crew returns with an splendin follow up on the ep1 (which was sold out on the day it came out!). and this one might even be better! hollywood nights has a dirty chi-town influenced house track with a phat bassline... think early days of frankie knuckles! megadon betamax did a cheeky cover version of one of our all-time favorite electronic disco tracks... changed into >he cant love you< (he completly reprogrammed and recorded the track!). and ben sun, suplier of the fantastic >when you looked< track on ep1 has another extremely solid track again called victoria park.. goose bumps all over from the first bar! another winner.

incl. following artists and tracks: rene bourgeois - 4 my recordz / heron - welcome to the adventure dub / philip bader - hello tokyo / rohrer & siegel - after bar

planet mu is very pleased to have ikonika a.k.a. sara abdel-hamids first proper release on another label outside of hyperdub.
ikonika is mixmags new artist of the month on the october issue.
>smuck< has been given a home on the label alongside ikonikas remix of eero johannes for this 12 inch ... and what a pair they make.
>smuck< follows in the tradition of ikonika~rs sweet and sour, curdled sound, with ever changing off-key melodies and metal-like synth guitar lines over sweet chilled chords, the track takes her penchant for melodies that border on the atonal as far as it can go, like a sophisticated take on 8-bar grime.
her remix of eero johannes >we could be skweeeerooos< on the b-side simply switches up the tempo of the original, makes the rhythm nice and bouncy and tightens up the original adding some trademark bent melodies and a see-sawing bassline. the end result is a linear, melodic track that feels like its somewhere between wiley and aphex at their sweetest.

so the story goes: fresh from releasing his debut 12inch as hunch for john dalys brilliant feel music hunee steps up with this fine double header. i ve been receiving a bunch of lovely tracks since i first met hunee a few years ago in berlin. some of these will soon materialize in a proper album but to start us off, heres brother and babel two slow grinding chuggers of the highest orders, stuck somewhere between an tropical island bar... and spaaaayaaaaayyaaaaaayyyaaaacccccceeee!!!!!!! peas.... in the middle east, thomas(oslo, 7th of august 2009)

restoration records highly awaited eighth release is the most powerful sonic weapon to face up this hard times. captain power and the soldiers of the future will lead the riot of the machines in order to restore the analogue kingdom. humans and machines, blood and fire, souls and transistors are operating together to fight the conformism and the loss of values imposed by the mass communication of this post-industrial era.
third side is the new operative group of restoration, formed by marieu, lucretio and by resident dj of panorama bar steffi (klakson/ostgut ton). >ready to dance< is a dancefloor disco-bomb, funky and sexy but minimalistic at the same time. very essential in its build-up, its bass line is addicting and relentless and its bass drum is powerful. we are ready to dance, its time to jack!
analogue cops >chamber< is a strong dark track in which a massive 808 drum explosion runs together with an ultra-pitched down voice sample. rushing percussions, piercy hi-hats, a breathless progression. an experiment which turns into a solid club tack.
on side b, >still me< represents lucretios vocation to neoclassicism. the time disappears and a gospel organ full of motown reminiscences reminds the most soulful works appeared on planet earth. dramatic and sweet, its evocative and hopeful. lucretios track on rst006 appears on tama sumos >panorama bar – mix cd<.
>mauzy< is marieus deepest track on restoration. beat-down smashing 909 drums, punchy snares, delightful piano chords, sharp cymbals, a praising voice. a track for a spiritual elevation, a track to dance until the last second. a track to listen to a million of times.

eijajei - aye ya yay! this is a hit record! but what else would you expect when two of berlins hottest dj and producers, guido schneider and jens bond, are working together!? following the duos major success on pokerflat in 2004, we have managed to get the two of them back together for this exclusive release on highgrade. the results are well worth it. >getting sleepy< pulls us comfortably into the musical world of jens bond and guido schneider. without being obvious, and certainly not lazy, the track reclines into a laid back groove that hooks straight into the rhythm, creating a perfect atmosphere for the psychedelic vocals and hypnotic groove. you wont be able to escape the mood, making this the perfect techno weapon for the late night hours. we like! >eijeijei< is the highlight of the record: warm drums, siren like vocals, the whole thing seems to come from a long way away with incredibly smooth beats which make this track so special. maybe this is the sound of a table dance bar in the jungle? its incredibly sexy in any case

minimal music has the reputation to create alot of little. alexander pavlenko, a talented producer from ukraine, is here to change all that and even raise the bar while he is at it! you cant deny this young mans skills for production and minimalism, no cheesy lines, no blips and blobs that we all heard a 1000 times allready. >carbon black< is one of those tunes you will instantly remember.. it sounds so crispy, so clean, so... pavlenko.. and it sticks inside your head like chewing um sticks to your hair.. the flip is no different. on >error 99< pavlenko keeps the drive a bit lower but the effectiveness is immense. dark vibes combined with even darker basslines make this one error you cant call the helpdesk for.

we are exited that a nerve wrecking period of careful selection and an anxious search for the most sublime collection of modern day techno has come to an end. with every end comes a new beginning and this masterpiece sets the marker for something new and raises the bar to incredible heights!in the footsteps of previous albums from pioneers like adam beyer and headroom, planet rhythm now unleashed another collection with todays major players and a sound that will make your head spin 360 degrees and warps you into a new era in 4 skull-crushing blows, by takaaki itoh, space djz, oliver kucera and carlos rios featuring the extender and last but definitely nog least gunjack!

marco petralia: his sound is deep, dirty and twisted – his dj sets are energetic and impulsive! as bigcitybeats resident he played already side by side with international dj stars like george morel, roger sanchez, steve angello or mark knight and further is responsible for mixing the very popular bigcitybeats compilations which hit the top ten of the german compilations charts each time they are released. marco can refer to a row of successful releases on labels like open bar music, miss moneypennys and of course bigcitybeats. the baggi begovic remix of his last single >getting deep< got massive support from roger sanchez! without exaggeration you can call >breaking all the rules< marcos best release so far featuring stunning vocals by the young and beautiful us singer taleen marie and a bunch of rocking remixes from superstar d.o.n.s, uprising newcomer cold n what, abel riballo & dj kds and robert heart & christian gimbel.

sindens remix has been featured on his latest mix for fabric and getting support from many big djs! drop the lime does it the way he knows best, bass heavy banger! b-side features vocal and stripped versions by mkl, deep house style. super package!

after setting 2007 alight with his award winning debut solo album a mind of its own karizma returns with the highly anticipated sequel: a mind of its own version 2.0 the upgrade! karizma continues to defy categorization as he moves between his customarily ferocious club bangers through downtempo burners, atmospheric soundtracks and even smoothed out soul with featured vocalists monique bingham, fruity and djinji brown on rap duty. karizmas trademark fusion of raw electronic grooves transcend through the house, broken, dubstep and so called funky house scenes, his raw style influencing beatmakers across the genres. karizma has been putting in the work in 2008 tearing up dancefloors the world over from on a mind of its own v2.0 the upgrade karizma has raised the bar once again as he continues to find new ways to rock clubs, cars and headphones worldwide.

the original is driving disco house that builds, twists and turns…! jonny had played the track at t bar and it had been heard by mr g (rekids) who requested to do the remix which is a more minimal late night groover that will appeal more to those that are more in touch with their tech side. great release by the sometime freaks
