it was their goal to reassert the vitality of their art outside the often stifling definitions of the music industry and to reassert the vitality of memphis as a music-making centre of great potential.
>memphis rock & roll homecoming<, with its mix of jazz, blues, country, gospel, rock n roll and soul, is now a proud part of the legendary citys legacy!

ltd 2018 repress in black vinyl!! greatest timeless deep dubby techhouse to techno...

in 2010, when we started to revitalise the tresor label, we reached out to some of the greatest artists, not just in tresors history, but in techno. late 2010 we sat down in a paris cafe, just off the pompidou centre, with jeff mills, on a rainy, otherwise unremarkable and miserable day. but on this day we were given two very strong pieces of advice. >hire a fanastic a&r and sign sleeparchive<. so here we are, an artist that has been on the underground radar of the hacker, miss kittin and richie hawtin makes his debut on tresor records with >ronan point<. >the tracks developed from parts and loops i had created for my live set and always wanted to make tracks from. after a little break i took with the sleeparchive project the record for tresor was a great opportunity to make these tracks.< sleeparchives live sets have graced the dance floors and sound systems of berghain, arena club and bloc weekend, so it is fair to say that the 4 tracks that make up ?ronan point are not just tried and tested, but actually born on the dance floor. >> press: dj magazine techno single of the month.

studio one dub 2 is a second collection bringing together some of the finest dubs from the legendary studio one records, kingston, jamaica. dub music was the creation of a generation of brilliant recording studio engineers in jamaica. but although clement coxsone dodds studio one is hailed as the greatest of the jamaican recording labels, and although many talented engineers worked the board at dodds brentford road studio over the years (including sylvan morris, syd bucknor, overton scientist brown and dodd himself), studio one was never typically known as a centre for dub.

first on decks.de !! lust und freude musik s fifth release arrives from tufan demir of istanbul, who has been making music in various genres under different monikers for some time now. this ep bears tufan s own name and contains tracks of a more personal nature. despite the overall after-hour feel of the toy harmonics, it also draws heavily from modern house music elements. four-to-the-floor pattern of the tracks do not necessarily mean that they are pure house as they encompass an undeniable ambient vein. most of the percussive elements featured here have been recorded by tufan, extracting sounds diligently from a toy archive that includes pieces ranging from action figures to music boxes. the opening number idiot term tricks you with its mighty kicks and hypnotic percussions only to draw you into a dreamy atmosphere made up of pads and intricate structuring. quiet days in a room starts off with a simple sequence and builds into a melodic orgy of bells and synth sounds. the most minimalist of all, back to fine offers the greatest emotional potential - despite its unmistakable dance footing, the track transcends electronic dance formulas thanks to its ingenious instrumentation.

might niko schwind be the new kingpin of house music? everybody needs to find out for himself of course and that is best done when listening to his freshest output for stil vor talent: the “midnightfunk” ep. it kicks off with the title track that features the great chicagoeske vocal skills of patrick blasa, who takes us in on this journey towards a time when house music ruled the waves of the club oceans. imagine a sticky slap bass, cowbells, high-pitched vocals and low-pitched male laughing plus of course the greatest thing about this scorcher: a somewhat jetlagged piano that seems to leap behind in one moment to then be right there again when it matters. ace!

minor love features 14 brand new tracks from americas number 1 greatest singer!. minor love found green enlisting the talents of rodrigo from little joy and other hanger ons, like his brother joel (and look a likes joe steinbrick and greg from megapuss). the album showcases a tender side of the often arrogant and emotionally unavailable bully / singer, green. in a total state of isolation, green attempted to play nearly all the instruments on the record, due to incurable social phobias which plagued him. apparently the inspiration for this album lies in greens fatalism - you might want to take that with a pinch of salt though!
