the three tracker gets off with a lovely post basic channel, dub techno interpretation of a techno track for the warmer days. the b side does a great job in fusing soft beats and low key melodies with raw structure,drive and pressure. plangent records slowly becomes the face for the otherside of berlin techno together with a label such as giegling. gritty deep techno, with some influences from dubstep here and there... slowly moving away from the much abused detroit reference. definitely worth the listen!

>detroit underground put out wildly variant musical styles on their label, from minimal to house, techno and electro - they certainly cant be genre pigeon-holed! this release comes from swedish duo kritical audio and spans through the aforementioned genres and at moments even into dubstep, breaks and d&b territory. moody, mind-tripping journeys are intricately created on katacomb through eerie synths, deep glitchy 303 basslines and arresting electro rhythms. >bugsmasher< rides electro punches and pounding 303s while the title track finds itself with a low slung, dubstep feeling. >oceans 1300< meanwhile explores yet another route with emotive synths and tight percussion, while the spaced out atmospherics of >taipei< round off an excellent 12inch

the brilliantly monikered big strick - familial elder to omar s and responsible for the odd killer release on his younger cousins fxhe imprint - belatedly sates the appetite of record collectors keen to indulge in his recent album detroit heat with a six track selection of the choicest cuts spread across this twelve inch. seemingly drawing influence from a myriad of motor city influences, detroit heat impressively flits between murky deep house, tracky techno and hypnotic jack-tracks. like many of his contemporaries, strick is a sucker for cement mixer production - that distinctly detroitian sound where every beat, groove or bassline sounds like the master tapes have been marinated in grit. that trademark sound, alongside a solid selection of floor-friendly grooves, makes detroit heat an excellent addition to the motor city house canon. the rubbery spinal atmospherics of >under tone< and the tony coates vocally assisted jack of >maybe 1 day< are particular highlights!

decabaret seconds release is a pure blend of finest detroit techno/electro. franki juncaj moving forward his dj 3000 moniker to focus on producing music delivers an electro stomper, >waiting in the dark< will give you thrills! second an aquatic electro mix by dj stingray from the drexciyan sea depths. aux 88 makes a top quality electro-techno bass remix. and the last but not the least tom linder from the detroit techno militia turns it into a techno floorfiller. detroit techno on top non-stop!

from germany its a long distance to detroit, but it sounds detroit like a short way...

from the very start, track one the first thirteen minutes of love opens the album with over ten minutes of ambient unlike anything you’ve heard in years, a long, elegiac composition somewhere between carl craig and the chill-out zone at a bygone rave. it’s a warning: take a deep breath before being swept away by eight tracks that span detroit and berlin, front 242 and carl craig, linking them via soaring trance, carefully-crafted minimal, the sound of the 90s, the sound of the new millennium. it’s hard to imagine the strike force and heart pangs it will inevitably inflict on any club in the know

shadow ray is best known in house music circles as the co-producer of the oasis 1, 13, 13 1/2 and 14 releases with omar s, although he is also well known to the ryan correctional facility for more nefarious reasons. the detroit-based producer has spent the past four years at ryan earning not only a hard knocked life but a trade in sound engineering. that was until alex smith (aka omar s) made a presentation to the facility s parole board to commission a remix of his recent hit >heres your trance now dance< as part of rays work release program! rumour has it the parole board was inhabited by at least one old school house head, and we re delighted to see alexs idea come to fruition, with shadow ray really nailing it with this remix. staying true to original s shimmering melody, ray opts to bolster the bottom end with a raw bassline that creates a nice, fat rolling groove

detroit is the first single from double night time, the upcoming album from morgan geist and his first solo artist album in over a decade. it features two epic, gorgeous remixes from grammy-nominated remixer carl craig and features vocals from jeremy greenspan of junior boys. after turning the dance music world on its head with his metro area project (alongside collaborator darshan jesrani) and mining rare disco gems with the seminal obscure disco dj mix unclassics (2004), geist decided it was time to turn his attention to a solo album. detroit is the lead song from the album and (as careful listeners may discern) is based loosely on 24k
