new bell is a stone cold classic piece of afrobeat that only appeared on 12 inch on an extremely rare dutch pressing and is a big play for everyone from masters at work (who made a pretty nice remix a while back) to gilles peterson. quite simply if you have any interest at all in african dance music you need this record. the flipside cut yoyo was only on a very rare french 7inch to our knowledge, this lesser known piece of afro disco really does get the party shaking its collective rump and sounds super fat on 12 inch for the first time

nice price deal !!! another top draw release here from snafe records. leading the way is nic fanciulli whose remix shatters the mold here with a techy yet bouncy vibe. add to this a sprinkling of minimal sounds and you have a very strong release. also included is the original mix, plus a mix from simon s.

>too many bugs< on the a side is meant to be an acknowledgement for the software industry. everybody should know the background of bug fixes in the form of patches... but this track is free of bugs, phat bass lines as well as tricky generated sounds will be banged around your ears literally! minx on the b side is forward-pressing as well. the bass line is pushing and the remaining elements are out to do the same with the aim to get even the last deadheads on the dancefloor

homage an bayerns hauptstadt muenchen mit label und titeltrack !! c64 sounds, patrick zigons remix and fuelle, schlagen hier voll ein

versatile are delighted with this new addition to their catalogue. a release made in belgium by detroit techno prodigy: fabrice lig. as you will notice on this new ep, the first white guys to have signed a record on kevin saundersons legendary label kms, remains faithful to the sound of motor city. a light and esoteric melody sets the tone of >x-slaves who changed the world<. the tight clap and kick drum leave room for the modulating bass. a voice similar to martin luther kings, repeats names of cities in which slavery prevailed, whilst pads stimulate the mental trip. the x slave is taken by the dancefloor, changing the world as he dances to the beat. “funk la termite” is elastic funk. binary rhythms, off-beat chords which keep the groove balanced whilst the hi-hats, like little insects, dig away at the beat, building it and deconstructing it as the sounds evolve. >the round of funky bugs< continues in the vein of creepy crawlies. here, the synths are more upfront, their acidic layering create a mixture of harmonic loops which will set all hells lose. the melodies and use of pads stay anchored in the detroit tradition, but this production fits just as well with all the current electro releases worthy of any good dancefloor

born and raised in tokyo, living in berlin since may 2007, akiko kiyama presents on neo010 two wonderful minimal- tracks, synthetic, acrylic, rough and raw, sober and straight, shy and yet damn clubby. akiko - whose delicately reduced musical style is partly defined by some earlier 12 inch releases on m-nus creates a fragile and surprising cosmos of subtle rhythmical structures and wobbling guttural waveforms, all this combined with this very special female approach that people all around the globe seem to love more and more. for those who like it a little bit less minimal, there are two remixes included. we have one by humantronic, the minitech (or tech?) berserk from france, who re-establishes an industrially strict balance of pumping and knitting sounds, with almost trancy elements good and healthy food for the club community

pascal feos succeeds with his debut 12 on karmarouge in a matchless manner a fusion of extremely wooden and dry beats with well fed warm sounds, it’s a hard but genial mixture of functionality and deepness. from the essence of minimalistic sound

alfred azzetto is back on purple music with the feel good massive anthem colors, which was one of the most played promo cuts at this year winter music conference. interestingly djs all the time played an acapella over it but also the instrumental melody sounds great. part one includes the walterino main mix is a fierce production featuring classic strings and wicked keys that give the track a modern disco sound, while the piano mix is on a deeper edge, with a great piano hook added (that is reminiscent of bas noir my love is magic). part two includes a full vocal mix & the remixes from dj fopp & christian hornbostel, which will be out end of october. it was worth to wait some months for the release of this tune!

the next top tunes from davis and may !!! this installment comes around with three must have tracks for future sound lovers. ansame someto is a hypnotic dancefloor star with his ruff drums and the gorgeous melody. on the flipside parplez starts to get a little deeper and infects u with the clacking and moving sounds from out of this world. a perfect end and rounding of this masterpiece is ligo greelon wich catches the crowds attention with the breathtaking melody maripozas third strike!!

systematic welcomes olivier gregoire. he comes from namur in belgium and has already releases on turbo, king kong and his own imprint vice versa. the three tracks represent the typical systematic sound, added with new innovative sounds and discoesque rhythms

supported by richie hawtin, tiefschwarz, loco dice, miss kittin , jussi pekka & many others!! again providing you with two new high quality techno tunes. on the a side we present you the tune: >tuna belly< , which is taken from the forthcoming full lenght, >martinez< album on re:connected, due for release later this year. the track starts off with a pounding deep kick-drum and a heavey roland sh-101 baseline. quickly after some heavey snares, claps and some underwaterish bubble sounds enter onto the groove and the track is steady rolling towards its peak break down. the baseline is filtered and tweaked through layers of efx into just a high pitched noise that is just on the edge of getting too much and right at that time it sweeps back into the full groove with a slaming hihat to lift the track even more. >tuna belly< is one of those track that definitely will make you go crazy on the dance floor in the late hours

asylum seeker + padded cell rmx blackpool refugee, cycling fiend and house music-machine magik johnson joins curfew for obviously his finest piece of music ever. imagine dj sneak, switch and jesper dahlback all kept hostage in a small room under orders to make something really good or be shot. filtered electro riffs build the pressure over a huge rumbling bass-end, then it drops into a techy hook that sounds like richie hawtin remixing a john carpenter soundtrack. paranoid and minimal as you like - and then back to the earth shattering beats & bass..

alessandro crimi comes here with an incredible dub techno monster. one of these timeless tracks that youll find yourself spinning in 30 years. huge drums, classic dance appealing analogue sounds along with the rattling bulldozerfeeling bassline. get your backpack and prepare for a deep journey! chaton on the other side is drying things out, keeping all the elements and thus delighting us with a stunning beat as well as hes ever mid 90s techno synths stabs that just drives anyone shaking. a deep reinterpretation aimed for the capital t for techno enthusiasts out there

superb minimal tech / neotrance 2 - tracker, sounds very well and it works too !!

the reload and global communications remixes of tracks originally released as mystic institute. some amazing productions by mark pritchard and tom middleton which sounds still as fresh and exciting as almost 15 years ago. especially the global communication >ob-selon minos < is such an amazing piece of music!! smooth melodies with incredibly beautiful sounds really seduce the listener to go thru this 15 minute journey... and even that seems like only 3 minutes when they are over.

as hard as it might be to believe, there was a time when the word trance did not mean dutch guys dressed in white wearing oakleys.. it also didn t mean israeli pre-military dragon-stick wielding reefer addicts.. actually, there was a glorious era where trance was a verb rather than a noun.. im talking about when you got in a trance, at lets say for example: the golden eagle in munich in 81, in a white-tiled sauna-motif discotec, grooving to a 17 minute reel-to reel version of knights in white satin on your 2nd bottle of poppers while some guy named >wolfie< takes his modern ballet skills to the >next level<. if that sounds appealing.. and i know it does.. then allow me to introduce you to compuphonic and kolombo.. a throwback to the days of romance-trance of the highest order. deep, sensual (yes, i used the word sensual) electronic grooves so potent that we were forced by a coalition of competitors labels to only release some of them digitally to restrict their awesome power to trip people out. these tracks make other tracks seem like mindless shallow shit. that includes some of turbos other releases.

alphahouse welcomes kai to the family, with the dazzling 3-track ep >gakuon< his debut release came last year on portables sud electronic label, and put him on our ones-to-watch list. now kai delivers his second ep and its a killer. with so much music in the world following the same patterns, and producers sucked into using the same cheap tricks in the studio, its refreshing to hear that some people out there are still capable of independent and abstract thought. we hope you agree. >ac< is a mutant deep techno piece equally suitable for dark club mayhem as it is for sunday brunch with the in-laws. seriously, try it out at both places and if it doesnt work the next beer is on us. >spacetravel< is exactly that. a micro-sampled ride though the cosmos. tiny vocal spurts and playful melodies surround a throbbing bassline. stripped just to the groove and not over-arranged, theres plenty of room to let your imagination roam free. >gravity< is one of those special inside tracks that we search so long and hard for. delightfully simplistic, yet incredibly groovy. its amazing how much you can do with a few well-placed sounds, isnt it?

its now pig&dans turn to release the next big thing in the cocoon recordings universe. their electronic house sound – closer to techno than to guy gerbers deep house as regards content – is a perfect image of what is happening on the planet s dancefloors. trippy and driving electronic beats which are never flamboyant are combined with filigree basslines, giant spherical spaces and weird sounds in long sophisticated arrangements: modern minimal house with a good share of techno.

who needs an obtrusively acting kickdrum, when the decent wobbling bassline of breezin does the job just as good. right nobody. or, at least peter grummich (shitkatapult/ spectral/kompakt) doesnt, whose proverbial deepness constantly gets the floors into rapturous body rolling. thus it was just a question of time to welcome this man to karloff, the label for everything thats different. here, all medium dated orientation to felt (rather than experienced) standards is gladly left to other persons of great hope, whilst enjoying the border crossing between dorky monkeyshine and serious spirit of adventure. consequently, quick thinking misbehaviour is also the attitude of the (for formal reasons called) b side, where the horizon gets canvassed for both weird and life affirming sounds, in grasp of the groove. summarizing dance music to breathe deeply.

danny and sa manage to merge techno & minimal sounds into a perfect blend! the result is a minimal, pumping melodic track ready to knock you off you feet. on the b-side a more rave-ish track that reminds of the early days

a fresh new three album track remix ep containing mixes by charles webster, the long term deep house maniac who serves to be an incredibly good choice, will saul, label owner of simple and aus, and a final remix by the man himself phonique. the charles webster remix of worked it out starts off as a nice thudding beat with a crisp minimal click on the offbeat, until an echoing vocal sample swifts in and around starting off the soft but pushing shoulder shifting bass line. smooth piping reverbed blows outline an almost euphoric melody, a very trippy and atmospheric tune with soft cymbals pattering away in the background. soothing sounds and housey chords mix perfectly to make a chilled out dreamy beach tune with a nice progressing beat. a swerling bridge with a 90s casio chord melody steps in and then fades out to the echoes of the vocals drifting silently away into the sun. on b1 its the will saul remix of bang. dun, dun, dun, dun, whoosh! - then a descending high minor melody calling with an electric bass response. squeeky bird sounds and weird reverbed chords makes you feel like you‘re in a crazy dream falling and falling yet the beat keep you stable and composed just about! an out of tune dungeon computer game. strange but true and also very interesting!! and finally, on b2 its the phonique version of space cruise feat. gui borrato. trekking through a spaceship journey tune with mechanical functional sounds releasing here and there. a repetitive two noted melody comes in and fades out, is replaced by an array of spaced out tones, arrivies back again, meets up and resounds into a fanc

aube records 02 is here. a great jean michel jarre inspired interstellar disco. produced by the guy who remixed jupiter blacks we like morder and who produces music for guys like marc almond. two tracks of very robotic synth disco that will take you to another cosmos. made as hommage to the european youth (that sounds a bit eastern europe 1979). dont sleep on this

main tune here is >love fantasy<, a deep and soulful house track featuring lush vocals from sophia ripley. the song is filled with organic sounds and exquisite melodies alongside warm rhodes which will warm up those heart strings as well as any dancefloor. rondenion takes it a step deeper with his trademark chunky four four beats, chopped up jazzy rhodes and a beautiful bouncy bassline which compliments stabs of the original vocal that drift throughout. anyone that is into the theo parrish, omar s or the detroit sound will love this japanese take on the deep house genre

einmaleins 24 adds a new artist on the roaster! remute (denis karimani) enters the series of releases along with young talented ion ludwig (alphahouse / underline) remix that has been doing a great work lately.the original track is characterised by crunchy sounds and deep bassline, turning and twisting all the time keeping the groove all 7min long.the remix work maintens the original sounds but goes into more dark paths,with liquid underground synths and peaking up in groove drive. both sides killers

tango saty is a crazy dancer from klaus schulze. sounds huge on 12 inch and causes a storm of freaky dancing on the more discerning dancefloors with a wonky yet eminently groovy rhythmic structure and synth brass riffs that echo around in your head for days. when the bass drops its smiles all round. b shock r.e.r.b. is a classic piece of doomy yet uplifting cosmic elettro from london town that was a baldelli and loda play. getting increasingly hard to find on the original 12 inch and even if you do, this one is mastered with more weight and clarity

the bear family is obviously not ashamed of their thick, flowing fur which might explain why the special k dance orchestra addresses a musical ode to kinky hotshorts a midpaced space boogie tune with robo vox and gyrating space gun sounds galore hotshorts is the perfect theme fur struttin around and displaying unshaven bear legs in all their glory. the flipside holds a darker, distorted piece of funk soaked house. let it grow

hammered by steve bug, ralph lawson, simon baker, mike shannon, tommy four seven, phonogenic, so strong! after a fab 3 track ep on 2020 vision in the last couple of months, burnski is back with his second ep on morris audio. >skip tha< is a great peace of house music, which sounds great in either the warm up or grave yard slot of the night. with smooth melodys, funky bassline and a great groove, is has everything to get people jackin! on the flip comes a awesome remix from slg (trapez, channels records), who speeds up the pace and gets things moving with his trademark tricky patterns. a absoloute must have record for two artists causing alot of hype at the minute - this record shows why!

krischmann & klingenberg - germanys new faces of dance floor destruction - have a long history concerning their collaboration and music. they already met at school and soon after realizing that becoming musicians would be a dream they started living it: both infected by the hardstylevirus had been working together for a long time and after their first release at skull tunes and the immediately following >hammerhuhn ep< at unknown power the audience experienced raw power with a high level pressure. they spent nearly all of their living on equipment last year and one can truly say that they became a massive package performing live. prepare for fresh sounds and kicking beats
