secret weapon of djs like ricardo villalobos, raresh, rhadoo and pedro from the ar:pi:ar crew, robert dietz, sascha dive ,.. some tracks are bigger than others – resulting of that perception we decided to bring some renewals for our sublabel superiéur and repositioned it as platform for reissues and unreleased treasures from the 90ies. first reissue will be the frankfurt early morning classic >sunrising< by mark ambrose & alexander purkart pres. bellringers, originally released on force inc. us in 1998. besides a new mastering of the original dat tape, we couldnt resist to include two amazing edits of the original. responsible for the reworks are our polish homies mike p and katowice academy of jazz graduate kacper bogacz, better known as pol_on, as well as finnish super house producer roberto rodriguez

levante is the name of a warm wind, blowing between northern africa and spain during the summer months, a warm wind that especially surfers, but also other kinds of deeply relaxed summer people appreciate a lot. as some surfers and other people require some of this feeling already before next summer, schallbox records associated with monoroom has caught some of this wind and transformed it into levante una, which is basses, waves and beats that will blow some tube-heated pre-summer frenzy through the speakers and on the dancefloors. for an even longer surfing experience and a continued boomy feeling in your knackers (hmm sorry ladies?), martin eyerer, mike wall and steve cole have got their speedoes out and dived into 45°(celsius) warm drums and samples, in order to offer to you their personal renderings of levante una. wasn t there a track once, warm surferette??

after the big debut album >its all about antagonism< which was supported by names like stephan bodzin, markus kavka, steve lawler, the advent, monoroom and many many more, comes the next episode from danjel esperanzas musically diary on backdoor beauty.

mike wall serves you real and deep prime time techno while staffan linzatti morphed these sounds in a great space journey. amazing record with two examples of the many interesting facettes that techno can have!

after a short hiatus, kelvin andrews world famous stable for his own and likeminded producers (like mark e & mark seven) secret dj weapons is back to the fray with a truly timeless compilation of balearic belters. lovingly compiled by kelvin himself and the infamous balearic mike (creator of the sublime cosmic alphonsus series and head of the fascinating rhythms record label - remember last years >reckoner< rework which sold out in 2 days ?) this is a very limited sampler 12 from the cd compilation (which will be available very soon exclusively to all ears - more info to follow) all the tracks are licensed and 100% legit, so the guys wanted to release a 12 inch treat featuring two of the more floor friendly numbers, knocked into seriously good shape by danny mekanik (one half of soul mekanik with older brother kelvin!). already a hot topic on the blogs and likely to be the cd soundtrack of the summer, this is a superbly curated collection, and a killer sampler.

12inch debut for whatchawannado, a new label featuring edits by djs who have graced the decks at las infamous do over party. stones throws left field psych man james pants leads things off with an excellent edit of jefferson airplanes white rabbit entitled through the rabbit hole. for the more dancefloor oriented, check the flip where (thee) mike b takes charanga 76s famous spanish version of aint no stopping us now and extends those banging disco breaks for days before finally letting it slip into the vocals.

seasoned producer, musician and dj, mike monday has always been at the forefront of the uks electronic music scene. his skills have been honed and developed through years in the late 90s spent producing a variety of styles of music. time well spent indeed as this fertile training ground prepared him for the presentation of his critically acclaimed 2nd studio album, songs without words. heavily influenced by the dubstep and funky scene, yoppul has the ethnic sounds of london written all over it. its warm drums sounds, hefty bass and quirky melodies epitomize mikes signature sound and are a tribute to the soundtrack that is currently ruling his citys streets

mike dehnert delivers with this 12 on his own fachwerk label. after the stir of his limited md2 release another piece of black wax with some heavy deep bass driven techno tools. 3 powerfull overwhelming tracks that are still subtile and classy. 3 tracks that slowly push the bounderies of techno rooted in the berlin traditions mixed with some detroit flavor. especially the b track is a true killer with 90s style open off beat 909 hi-hats and great tension. wont be in stock forever... dont sleep!

1999 ur-release of finest detroit electro, made by remote aka mad mike banks.

3 new edits by mike simonetti of italians do it better. three post punk jammers put to wax. part one of his mike series. mike decided not to go the typical route and edit rare baleric tracks or unknown boogie. instead he went into his past as a punk and did some re edits of post punk gems. you may recognize some of these toons. he promises to bust out the rare joints next time.

mike wall strikes back! check the ascion remix!

ets introduce a great japanese electronic artist ono (the blue herb / japanese synchro system) who now branched out to his more electronic personality !! contains a fantastic remix by underground resistance mad mike banks !!!

mr dehnert delivering! after is succesfull releases on fachwerk and the first basement series release its time for another essential techno release by mike dehnert. after the little hype on the many blogs its another release that will create a stir. lautschrift is probably the sexiest masculine techno track we ve heard in a while! a wolf in sheep clothes. undercooled phat techno drive with a nice mellow vocoder voice, soft bleepy sounds and a deep sub-bass... and then slowly the sexy bassline becomes more and more dominant and energetic and the tracks turns into a killer. amazing track! regelschrift and nano are two heavy techno tracks from the neue berliner techno schule. just as we like it!

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
both of the remixers we chose represent different sounds in techno that have influenced mikes sound.
1: sophisticated italian groove*
giorgio gigli is an italian minimal-trance maestro, an incredibly modern renaissance man who is also a trained sommelier.** he is rising in the ranks and catching up in profile to his occasional production partner, donato dozzy. hopefully we will have more of his tracks on turbo soon.
2: m¦n¦m¦l
hobo is a fellow canadian best known for his excellent work on m¦nus. rumor has it, he borrowed richies quad-macro template file to finish the final version of this remix... whatever he did, his second effort came up huge, this mix is excellent.
enjoy!

kebacid is the production alias for turbo all-stars jesper dahlbäck and jori hulkkonen. their previous releases on jespers defunct blank ltd are some of the best acid tracks of the decade. this is a monster that ought to keep all the die-hard turbo fans happy.
enjoy!

2nd release on the punish label!! 1999 must have classic!

mark grusane and mike cole are better known as the owners of mr peabodys records (store) in chicago. this track was taken from the primitive house trax cd they put out in small numbers. this early nineties track very much reminds us of the true chicago house sound… raw and sweaty! this will be available as a special limited edition.

yet another faithless cover.

banging techhouse cover of the olive classic!!

>i m that alley< is the new single from south african shock-poppers sweat.x. it comes as they embark on their two month european tour and is a taste of their forthcoming album >187<. >i m that alley< is a departure from vocalist spoek mathambos hyper-surreal rap style, and, together with markus wormstorms finely designed production, is a modern take on the classic synthpop love song. accompanying the title track is >the knife<, a freaked peek into the world of sweat.x, a favourite of their live shows, it finally gets released here. third track on the single is a remix of >i m that alley< by new york-based mike slott. slott has been making waves with his work as one half of heralds of change and this remix is his best work to date and is already being used to close out his live set. the release also includes instrumental versions of >the knife< and >i m that alley< for maximum club efficiency!

top ten of techno dj legend dave clarke and ben sims !! michael walgram, born and still living in steyr, started his dj career at the age of nineteen. that time he was deejaying at small private parties, heating up the vibes with commercial beats. the artist mike turrento was born. however, he soon started to alter his style and went from commercial music to fine, chilly, yet pumping and pounding tribal techno. he is especially known for enriching his sounds with numerous sound effects using different equipment. the hype of minimal techno did not alter his individual style, yet he tried to combine minimal and classic techno with breakbeats. through adding skillbreaks, speedbreaks, scratches and spins he managed to find the perfect mixture and created outstanding classic breakbeat techno sets.

the new series for raw no-nonsens techno and house tracks. some straight up techno... some edgy, exciting and fresh, sometimes just plain functional dj tools. first one is mike dehnert with his solid umlaut track that was overlooked by many when it was released on his own fachwerk imprint. mike is one of the big talents with his own trademark sound.. something we don t hear to often! 3 unreleased verions of umlaut2... mikes first unreleased mix, slightly housier then the first one, the umlaut2 new version which is a straigth up club tool. big surprise here is the remix by levon vincent! a new talent from new york that got his name on the map after 3 incredible releases on his own novel sounds and deconstruct labels. he did a more then excellent job with his dirty and housier version. levon did lay down a crazy groove with an old fashioned hook line (very n.y. house) and mold it into a fierce techno track. fresh and completely different then most techno out there these days.

mike comes with a new four tracker ep on his own label. four striped killer berlin flavoured techno tracks. fachwerk quality as usual!

wagon repair are excited to announce the latest ep from berlin based canadian mike shannon. the re-nag ep, his third wagon repair release and first production of 2009, is the latest in a long line of releases from the head of cynosure records, with his work having previously graced imprints from ~scape and num to richie hawtin’s plus 8 records. opener ‘darkstar 3000&#8242,, is a futurist techno stomp. engined by poked melodic tones and a prominent metallic hat, dissonant stealth melodies manoeuvre around percussion and punched bass. biding time to prolong suspense, both bass and key melodic journeys coordinate to climax in a tightly executed sensory assault. ‘sweets (tla mix)’ opens energetically with static percussive tones circling around a pummeling kick. a rapturous vocal takes lead, effervescing within a wind tunnel of wobbly bass melodies and dizzy pads to close. ‘sweets (acapella)’ is an abstract entity, with it’s sole vocal discernibly haunting in the absence of beats and structure. full of texture and space, this is one for the producers that will surely not go to waste.
