erell ranson is based in the north of france and has already released memorable records on arne weinbergs aw-recordings, as well as on his own myself label. he expresses his personality through these soulful productions, and this new release on adepth demonstrates how his great talent has developed even further. each track on the new everything needs to be clear ep is an individual musical journey in its own right. the 4 track ep begins with erells original version of >everything needs to be clear<. its combination of gentle chords with electro beats is the foundation of the musical ideas explored throughout this release. the second track, >so strange to explain<, is deeper and an adventurous fusion of dark, intense tones, swirling beats and insistent percussion. on the flipside, canadian rennie foster remixes the title track, and delivers a fine piece of modern dancefloor techno which respects the key elements of title track. erells >sandcastle< closes the ep, and its sophisticated yet punchy bassline and fragile synths recall some classic early 90s productions.

remastered version of the original, bryan zentz onryo mix + angstrom & aalberg remix! bushido is set to scorch the dancefloors ?again!

support from pig & dan, gary beck, electric indigo, dj misjah, nicolas masseyeff, paul nazca, brothers vibe, linus... absolutive records is back !. after micromattic & opuswxerk, its time for dean olbricht to produces a powerful and hypnotic techno on this french label. both >tiliae ep< tracks include devastating sound which ll surely fire up worldwide dance floors this winter. b side, this is the talented maxime dangles (sign industry / kompakt), no need to introduce him, he disturbs the original version of >narvik< by pushing to the top techno style! such a delight for berghains sound addicted!. for those who purchase the vinyl, the track > tiliae ii < is in free download via a qrcode on the sleeve cover.

twisted tongue follow up their acclaimed debut album with the first single from their follow-up lp, >a return to space<. eschewing the p-funk stylings of their self-titled debut, twisted tongue (dave jay & mark dalton) provide an essential revival of the mid-tempo soul stepper, featuring guest vocalist johanna lee sweetly leading a tough, incessant groove that recalls the classic likes of nick martinelli and the mizell brothers. twisting the track even further are the remixes provided by dj ray mang (dfa, mangled), one of the founders of londons nu-disco scene, who has long taken inspiration from new yorks golden era of the loft and paradise garage. twisted tongue writer/producer dave jay joined forces with ray for his >mang vs. mondo< ep on mangled earlier this year, and here mang returns the favour by dubbing out and extending >a return to space< to mind-bending effect. on the flipside is the cinematic, downtempo remix by blue states, which subtly subverts the original, transforming the track into a late night indie excursion. andy dragazis (blue states) has now been delivering his unique brand of melancholy, guitar-led head music for over decade, via labels such as xl recordings, and this mix of >a return to space< ranks up there with his most memorable work

following up his successful foray of sampling on otp party breaks, andy ash finds himself diving head first into the darker outer limits of big room dance music. >another world< nods its head to technos yesteryear, more specifically detroit. imagine a slower version of the motor citys soulful chord pulsing sound and youll find yourself in the right ballpark. add to this andys finishing jacking touch and the result is golden. this time around otps remix work finds italian man of the hour nicholas, from no more hits (label) fame and otps very own marcos cabral

whilst the bpitch control >werkschau< cd showcases the label and its 12-year history in its entire stylistic breadth, the first single from this exceptional album is predominantly about one thing: dancing! thats why we are not settling for album track lengths her, the single release is packed full of extended versions - made by ellen allien, sascha funke and moderat.

thomas fehlmann is integral to kompakt and the labels history. his solo releases and collaborative work with alex patterson as the orb have been some of the kompakts most revered and cherished tunes. following the success of his 2010 full length gute luft (a collection of re-edited versions from his score to the hit documentary 24hr berlin), we start 2011 off with titan one / dfm. on october 16, 2010 thomas fehlmann performed in montreal, canada at the historic molson coors brewery building together with members of the montreal symphony orchestra (osm). together they sought to recreate a version of gustav mahlers classic symphony no. 1 (titan). kompakt is proud to now offer a new recording inspired by that epic concert of symphonic and electronic with a new recording inspired from that performance – renamed as titan one. the hum of cellos and strings conjoin fehlmanns electronics – held together by the sublime, unobtrusive thump of a bass drum. titan one flows with a beauty and edacity that is rarely heard in both classical and electronic music form. the b-side features a new recording inspired from the second piece of the performance - a new version of thomas fehlmanns du fehlst mir from his 2006 kompakt full length visions of blah. reanimated as dfm, the piece again conjoins the different musical worlds in a way we have never heard to such a high standard. a much more upbeat affair than to titan one (of course) bass and keyboards mingle with the symphony the playfulness of the original song rolls throughout dfm. whether as palais schaumberg, the orb, or 3mb (to name only a few alias). fehlmann may have 3 decades of professional recordings under his belt but he continues to prove to the world as being one of the most fascinating and creatively open musicians in his field. this release clearly proves his story is far from over.

need to warm up? want to dance and you love house music? then your gonna to love this track. david guettas ability to supply a proper dance-pop stonker again evident with whos that chick. feel the adrenaline / moving under my skin / its an addiction, the barbadian songbird rihanna hollers over bolshy beats and swaggering synths, the studio trickery on her nonchalant vocals feeling colder than an ice pop on a snowy day. its a good job, then, that bopping along to this - and warming yourself up in the process - is pretty much impossible to resist.

handstamped & numbered - limited 300 copies

radius continues its superradio series with one of the deeper but bigger tracks from the superradio catalogue. every self respecting disco dj has hammered this gem for years. catch by sun la shan. the best way to describe this track is to picture yourself visage and moroder working out together in a gym staring at a blondie poster. catch is most definitely a seminal piece of work combining disco and new wave in a sexy and sleazy molotov cocktail. the ep comes with a stripped down dub version and a disco devil remix. also hailing from gent, belgium, where radius is based, disco devil stayed quite close to the original vibe with minimal synth efficiency and equally sleazy vocals. catch is sexy!

lithuania based new producers debut release on endless flight. they have released from future classic, under the shade, mantis and own imprint silence music. their debut track >test< was licensed for the gilles petersons mix cd and supported from ewan pearson. this time they teamed up with nu-disco diva >kathy diamond<. original version on a side is dark, dubby down tempo vocal stuff and soft rocks remix is slo-mo ambient house. the dub version on the b side is a club friendly edit.

encapsulating carolas approach to techno in both sound and title, groove catcher is the naples producer at his best, with a rolling bassline punctuated by a percussion pattern that teases out the funk of the track in carolas trademark style: pacey and direct, but with enough bounce and fluidity to fully snare the occupants of the dancefloor within its grip and make them do its bidding. fellow album cut, the method, which appears on the vinyl format only, is similarly insistent whilst lighter in tone - if groove catcher is best employed at the peak of a club set, then the method is its daytime terrace equivalent. leading the ep will be the rework of groove catcher by martin buttrich, with the german producer lending the considerable talents that have led to releases on poker flat and cocoon recordings - as well as his recruitment behind the mixing desk for timo maas and loco dice - to a pair of remixes that transform the original into a different beast entirely. remix a mutates groove catcher into something monstrous and intimidating, bringing a different intensity to the track and injecting it with a heightened sense of danger.

vincenzo certainly needs no introduction as one of the dessous and poker flat camps central artists. now he is gearing up to release his next full-length album in 2011, the first single to be featured is the breathtaking >the clearing<. beautifully warm and overflowing with atmosphere, this anthemic modern ode to introspective moments on the dancefloor swirls and builds with incredible depth and clarity. like opening the door to a secret garden full of wonders, this powerful moment of positivity sends unifying waves through clubland. the equally special dub version works the groove further with a straighter edge and an even later night theme emerges through the blissed out wash of chords and subtle harmonies. veteran producer ian pooley is enjoying a comeback of late with his classic soulful house sound once again brought back to the floors. his stunning remix pays tribute to all the power and emotion of the original, while cutting up some old-school flavours and laying down that classic pooley key-led funk.

it would be a complete mistake for any house imprint not to include a us talent in his catalog, this wont be the case for apersonal music. on its third effort the label takes his first journey to the grounds of american house. from arizona, michael j collins with remix rework from bostons house-sons soul clap, plus the first collaboration for apersonal from maurice aymard. a side single nothing wrong with holding on show us the most eclectic side of the label so far. looped vocals, broken house with a saxo on top. michaels talent goes beyond genres mixing elements from different styles to create this great piece of music. soul clap delivers, as usual, top stuff! in their remix they speed up the bpm and add a hip-breaker bassline taking the original track to the dancefloor war zone. second remix from maurice aymard, himself at the controls plus venezuelan producer garnica hitting the drums, they take the track to a trippy slowmo version, what maurices catalogs as his best remix so far.

supported by stephan bodzin, phonique, afrilounge, kombinat100. was hat ein am bosporus ansässiger liebhaber von punkrock, krawallmädels und katzen mit dem mecklenburger label acker records gemeinsam? richtig: eine vorliebe für anregend knackige tanzmusik, die sich selbst nicht zu ernst nimmt und vermutlich gerade daher so erfrischend anders und eigenständig ist. mit un chien andolou präsentiert sarp yilmaz eine akustische fortsetzung des sommers, zusammen mit lässigen beats bestimmen hier sonnige gitarrenakkorde, temperamentvolle kastagnettensounds und ein arabisch anmutender gesangsfetzen die stimmung. eine remixtechnische steilvorlage für eule:nhaupt & molle:nhauer, deren version sich durch den unverkennbar erdigen wupp im bassbereich, treibende offbeat-akkorde und dezenten bläsereinsatz auszeichnet. mit schneidigem funk und einer gehörigen prise minimal house repräsentiert the way you move die ackertypische abwechslung auf der vorliegenden platte. diesem anspruch wird auch der mollono.bass remix gerecht, der sich während der ersten takte nah an der atmosphäre des originals hält, dann jedoch mittels exzentrisch bis mysteriös anmutender pianoklänge in hypnotische tiefen eintaucht

here we go again! driving forces recordings is proud to announce another great release by our friends chris hope & andre walter, who again shared forces to create 2 pure and evil techno tracks. the original version of >i take< is a super long & hypnotic tune with great and endless rising synths. this is pure peaktime madness for crowded club nights.
the remix comes from nobody less than naples uprising superstar sasha carassi. with releases supported by the ones like adam beyer, alan fitzpatrick, joseph capriati, len faki and countless others, sasha stands for quality in every respect. no question that he delivered a real bomb here too in his very special & unique trademark big room style.
>collateral damage< is another brutal piece of music in the typical way only andre walter is able to do. with all its rawness this track perfectly reminds on his early days and works with frankfurt based technolegend chris liebing. this is simply sick! be aware!all tracks were heavy road tested for months now and are 100% club smashers for sure!
