for a few months already, sub static boss falko brocksieper gradually intensifies his work on the own label again. with driving minimal-beats and melodic instinctive feeling the track >slap< from the >slap/happy<-split-ep with mia evolved into a gladly played hit, and also the following >esque ep< was not just a dayfly in the worlds dj-bags. in this phase the new 2-tracker >blackbox< is now brocksiepers ultimate confession to the dancefloor - fully functional without lacking his organic, trippy branding. the track >blackbox< presents itself as a dark, impulsive techno mover, ripped open again and again by intuitively placed accents, only to remind itself of its own irresistible drive and to cultivate it over the full length. meanwhile the b-side >off the rack< is toying with the idea of chicago house groove, driven by a rebelliously grumbling bootybassline and bleepy excursions into the world of weird soundscapes. on both tracks falko brocksieper celebrates the sign stimuli of techno, delightfully modest and coupled with his signature bubbly, sculptural sound.

dont be fooled by the plural >boys.< alexander ridha, 24, is just one man and he can do it all on his own. nobody, however, would argue about the >noize< part. as a kid he taught himself to play the drums and piano, started to write his first songs when he was 12, and at the age of 16, discovered his love for programming and producing. his music and productions have excited massive interest from artists like soulwax, justice, erol alkan and the rapture and labels such as kitsuné, ed banger, fatboy slim s skint, dj hells intl gigolo and tigas turbo rec - to name a few. daft punk have sent him their love via myspace and his remixes of depeche mode, feist, british indie anthems >banquet< by bloc party and >everyday i love you less and less< by kaiser chiefs have thrilled global djs and crowds all over the world.

marcus was created in the early 2004 by davy standaert, stephane matten and geert standaert, as a new essay to the electronic music scene. their first single >weekend in paris< was played during summer 2005 on fm brussel, and came over during fall on national radios such as studio brussel and nrj. a first support for the band as they had no record company at that time. in april 2006, they signed a first deal for an ep with dirty dancing records, the label from the wellknown discotheque. the ep including the track >f-bees< was released in december 2006

adam beyers mad eye imprint has been the quietest of his 3 in terms of its output over the last few years but it has by no means made he least impact. the 5 releases so far have had massive dj support from across the techno scene with the last release being played by a huge cross section of djs. this time adam has really turned on the style with these 2 tracks with the a side china girl being a funky killer with its grooving bassline and drum groove immediately bringing you in before the addictive wooden block melody and warped edits creating an addictive intensity that put simply - just works. hear it on a system and see the dancefloor react and youll see where were coming from

new signing on players paradise from hamburg city, two producers who are up and coming in the scene and ready to take over with this mental banger. first one is tensnake who runs his own label mirau musik out of his hometown and got a lot of attention recently by remixing >junior boys<. his partner is suite 9 aka d.i.m. who made some great records on tigas turbo label and had a big hit with >airbus baby< and his cool remix for chromeos last single >fancy footwork<. on the remix job this time our favourite man out of cologne, steve barnes aka cosmic sandwich. he transforms the original into a spaced out 90s house track with his typical driving groove that he developed over the last years in his great releases on traum and my best friend.

its been well over a year since front rooms last offical release (look out for deadsets >keep quite< & lost property for some undercover front room action). here the label bounces back with two prime-time cuts from riva starr (aka madox), here wearing his jackin house hat, he shows why both front room & dirty bird are supporting his releases. picking up on the sound of jesse rose, switch and claude vonstroke, while getting plays by them all at the same time. look out for future releases by riva starr on front room very soon.

this is the first ep on flash recordings that doesnt feature label owners florian meindl and oliver koletzki. but they have made sure to look for a quality replacement. no one else than cologne-based artist daso - renowned for his previous releases on labels like mbf, session deluxe, ghostly and connaisseur - teams up with his buddy pawas to create their first release >night express< on flash. pawas has just had his first record out on adam krolls and markus müllers imprint squonk records and has been a dj for 9 years, moving from india to cologne one year ago. on the a-side daso & pawas foreshadow the summer with the track >tgv<: a beautifully deep melody that swings along a powerful loop. >ice< - the name of germanys high-speed train is clearly more electro-driven. a slightly broken beat with a thumping organic bassline pumps above an ever-changing soundscape that culminates in some euphoric high-pitched synths. never too much, this is a perfect example for elegant understatement. also on the flip side is the track >bummelzug<, which translates as >very slow train< in german. this is a dub-techno masterpiece. deep dubs and arpeggios flow over the simple beats with a great clappy snare drum. dreamy, hypnotic, melodic! flash recordings has just become fit for the summer

tristy was former known as dj inaf and produced over 10 records under this name on monoid , bassethound etc etc. with a different style came a different name, he already signed 6 or 7 tracks to different labels worldwide. tristys record on upstruct can be best described as a harder version of oxias recent records

get physical are pleased to welcome paul ritch, following the well-received >fortuna ep< (together with anthony collins) with his first solo-tracks. over the past year ritch has earned his stripes with solo releases on resopal schallware, minisketch and paradigma, and as one half of handycraft, whose le bal masque ep on kickboxer was a recent underground hit. ritch saves his best for physical, though, with two minimal house tracks of real energy and sophistication comprising this new 12inch. a master of slowburning intensity, ritchs begins >june< in understated fashion, but build after build, and the onset of busy, chattering percussion, sonar pings and ravey acid lines take things to a wholly different level. ritchs skill is in accumulating layer over layer of effects and then, in a magical instant, stripping things back to raw elements, some of the compressed, filtered breaks on >june< will cause serious dancefloor damage and delight

madnurse is back with some great techousy tracks. almost all labels changed their plans and switched over to another style of music. but madnurse sticks to its original flavor. funky techouse with a twist. the original track is by alexander koning and has a more progressive techno feel. while the rmx by mark antonio is straight up funkiness which can be best compared to the new danilo vigorito and rino cerrone stuff. the warren fellow rmx is a steady builder that, wrecks up the dancefloor after the break

again and again, for the second time in a month for a double bill dancefloor winner. highly sought after and hard to find electro rock version of chicagos house pioner juan atkinss cosmic car, opens this 12inch cover version, from the mid 80s, has reached cult status among those in the know, but has became so hard to locate that it never properly crossed over onto the overground club culture world. we hope to give this masterpiece a second chance to reach his highly deserved broader audience. totally highly essential! b side gets back to the european funk mysteries. massive funk disco instrumental from holland, with all the elements that make a classic.. well, classic actually, but with only 7inch and album versions available at the time, this pure slice of delight never made it to most djs flycases. heres your chance to grab this one, on a slightly re touched 12inch version by our d.classics men nico & pierrot.

>baby show up< shows olivers strength in crafting a vivacious floor-rocking beat, with a deeply cavernous kick and sharp stabs forming the groove before simply gripping synth melody gives the track a sparsely wistful atmosphere. as the bass bounces the track along, a precisely executed break leaves no doubt as to the peak-time quality inherent in this production. >baby show up – elegant universe remix< demonstrates the appropriate name of these young remixers, with a track that falls nothing short of a nearmasterpiece. textured melodic soundscapes float gently over an entrancing and slowly lumbering bass-kick combo, purveying a level of passion rarely found in such a graceful piece

jerome sydenham and rune rk first met about 5 years ago, when jerome first played club rust in copenhagen. rune was the club resident, and the two immediately connected over the decks. even though their styles were very different, there was a mutual respect and understanding for the music. in november 2006 jerome and rune decided to go to the studio and see if these magnetic poles could be joined - and from nowhere magic happened. a new mutant of sounds and arrangements emerged. not really house, not really techno, but dirty and soulful at the same time. energetic, yet calm, these tracks are something new. they dont sound like rune rk, and they dont sound like jerome sydenham. so what do they sound like? have a listen

you might not think youre familiar with kramer, but chances are youve heard his music before. better known as larrson, the berlin-based dj/producer has released a series of acclaimed 12inchs on esteemed labels like traum schallplatten and bpitch control. he now adopts the kramer guise to deliver a 3-track ep of smart electroinfluenced and minimal house on berlins get physical. kramers first forays into music were as a singer, guitarist and songwriter, it was hearing bpitch boss ellen allien dj for the first time that inspired him to make and play electronic music. his rock/funk prehistory is subtly apparent in the eps a1, >runner<, which begins with a warm, rounded kick and busy, clicking percussion before urgent hi-hats and a hard snare sound take over and aim the tune squarely at the dancefloor. the centrepiece of the track, though, is a synth riff that summons a taste of vintage electro, while sounding purely 2007
