200 bpm killer, focusing one the 90 s oldschool hardcore, with this melt of melodies and hard kickerz. blaster.

the two original tracks, while very different in moods, both share lush productions and a dramatic musical storytelling while the wonderful remix by ame is taking the song into an epic masterpiece that works wonders on a dancefloor while never losing the bewitching essence of the original

a masterpiece of hardcore and broken hardcore, dancefloor and full of good surprises...and a mortal industrial pityless kick.

without a doubt, manfredi romano (aka dj tennis) is a busy man. co-founder and partner of life and death, a dj with a full schedule and someone who still always has his fingers (and mind) in multiple projects and multiple places at the same time. how he juggles it (or when he sleeps) are questions best not pondered. one thing those who know him well have surely noticed is that he does it all while constantly on the move. unfazed by the constant whirl of cities that pass him by, he somehow manages to remain focused throughout. no matter where he goes, he somehow always manages to remain local.

ejecta ist das neu projekt von leanne macomber (aka neon indian) und joel ford, der mit daniel lopatin (oneothrix point never) das duo games bildete. die 10 ejecta songs verbinden elektronischen dream-pop frueher 4ad-releases von cocteau twins oder this mortal coil mit der disco-coolness eines kavinsky oder der chromatics. limitiertes lp-format.

tale of us, return to the life and death mothership with a new original piece featuring berlin duo, the/das.

moody yet not morbid, futuristic but not foreign, modern but not without class

next round for chymeras >death by misadventure< interpretations. this time, both remixes were made for >an island in space<, definitely one of the highlight tracks of the album. on side a, uncanny valleys jacob korn, who just released his debut longplayer >you&me<, turns the tune into an intoxicating hymn somewhere between house and techno. catchy, and with a wonderfully positive atmosphere, the track is pure bliss. on the b, dutch techno veteran orlando voorn delivers a piece of properly driving melodic techno. several melodies entangle to one big sound collage. there is no real beginning or end, like a neverending jam. a very unique track and so much more than a useful tool...

this time last year, life and death the dream team comprised of modern house heroes tale of us and thugfucker released a dual weapon of stealth killer club tracks ‘step aside. now given the royal remix treatment by super producers carl craig and jamie jones plus rework flexing their minimal funk, the ep gets a whole new lease of life.

phat atmospheric tech house...

ultraphat dark banging techno classics by karl o connor... originally released in 1999 / 2000... 2012 remastered !!

we are proud to finally present to you: the original concept brought to life by hellfish & producer way back in 2001 has received a 4 way upgrade from 4 of the uks top hardcore artists ... hellfish / producer / matt green / bryan fury.

a time machine appeared to us recently in a cloud of smoke and a giant portal of light. out of the portal a smoking piece of futuristic metal emerged and fell onto our floor. closer examination revealed it to be a time capsule sent from the future. a message from the year 2043, it contained diagrams of futuristic machines from what looks to have been the studio sessions of the recordings presented here. here is what we found, a 2 track ep (plus remixes) from artists from the future. recordings made 21 years from now but from artists who you may have already heard of today.

sleep ds bacon ep is the next offering from sydneys excellent death strobe imprint. sleep d are a couple of young cats from melbourne, the production duo are sure to be an integral part of the deep house explosion coming from their city, spearheaded by the likes of tornado wallace, fantastic man and the melbourne deepcast crew. the record has a range of flavours all tied together by a fundamental warmth and soulfulness. the title track flows and floats in a dreamlike state, whilst simultaneously nailing the groove from beat one. bubbles vs the cat takes it up a notch, entering the club realm with rich bass and tight rhythms. their remix of chet fakers love & feeling is certain to give any dance floor a collective orgasm, oozing an erotic strangeness as it heaves and thrusts away, while ischa has a tickle of techno thrown into the mix and, despite its druggy sedation, has a hidden energy for dancing feet. one limited pressing.

36 hours in. the lights are flickering and the sweat is pouring out of you like the thoughts that you re trying to write down, to get down the words, to put down the message, to translate all the ideas that keep appearing in your head. ideas like uninvited guests that keep showing up and refusing to leave. somewhere though, there s a truth in there. you know it because you saw it. you know it because you felt it. because when you knew that even though there were ten million reasons why you should go to bed now, why you should go to bed straight away. that you should put these silly things down and stop trying to create and just get some sleep already. that you should stop trying to wrestle the ideas in your subconscious down to the ground so you can actually capture and express them to others. but you persist.

join the dots reaches its dirty dozen in the form of leeds based noiseniks death on the balcony. after a year of rather big releases, hanging out with wolf & lamb, soul clap and other assorted cool cats and playing a hectic schedule of gigs across the world that literally saw fans throwing themselves (from a ruddy great height apparently) at our boys they now contribute dot012 to the jtds family. whilst being described as everything from disco, house, deep techno and any number of other pointless monikers (these are just their own descriptions we should add), death on the balcony have you could say come home to roost. think of us as their crash mat, their safety harness, their bungee cord. we are going to look after them whilst they just sit back and admire the view.

tunnel signs is the new studio project of ash moses - graphic designer, dj and exactly one half of death strobe records.
sun is his debut release - a driving disco-house jam written over a glorious sydney summer with axe provided by ghostwoods paddy harrowsmith and cutters records house legend nile delta on production duties. the ep neatly ties together the various influences and vibes that have inspired ash in his never ending tumble down the rabbit hole of techno. dark yet happy, serious but fun ... the stuff they call dance music!

these fellas hailed from leeds, and apparently have some sort of morbid love affair with balconies... mystery meat is on a tear these days and continuing to up the ante bring you a trio of terrific reworks from leeds finest, the dashing duo that is death on the balcony. paul and mark have been on the forefront of the deep house and disco world for a number of years now following a killer contribution to soul claps 2nd free.p >cruel banana< not to mention their >adventures of soul clap podcast - downtown:uptown<. fast forward to 2011 and the boys are on all of the top labels of the moment, including culprit, silver network, airdrop and their own magicbag. its no wonder then that their contribution to the fabled mystery meat imprint is anything short of stellar. >get out of your world< is an electro boogie monster, already melting down dancefloors from london to los angeles, berlin to beijing and back again theres just no denying that bassline! >what is dub< takes things more melodic and dare we say deeper with a hypnotic vocal that you just cant get out of your head. rounding death on the balconys ep out is >if you want my champagne<, a bouncy house re-work of one of the 80s finest voices. bounce to this!

the reinvigorated dfa imprint is back & joining them is mock & toof, a duo who have firmly established themselves as ones to watch. for this ep k-choppers starts things off in a slo-mo disco fashion on the a-side. brownbred carries the torch flipside with a latin percussive disco hit.

carefully caressing your back whilst whispering sweet nothings into your ear, pillowtalk join the life and death family with their modern dance soul hybrid, >the come back ep<. despite the name, its actually a debut ep -- and one that quickly establishes pillowtalks unique sound as an important voice in the new generation of contemporary dance music. already getting serious play (and props) from a wide range of djs, from the deep & soulful wolf + lamb and soul clap crews all the way to the banging bass centric justin martin, >the come back< finds life and death once again crossing the conventional genre descriptions with a true dancefloor bomb that everyone can get behind. imagine motown and classic doo-wop blended with a modern dance sensibility and you may start to get an idea of the pillowtalk sound. but its better to stop imagining and just have a listen because what these guys are doing is so genuinely unique, its not an easy one to pigeonhole with words and genre titles alone. the ep includes >the come back<, >soft< and >long lost friends< as well as a life and death remix of >soft<. put together in the life and death laboratories it brings a darker, deeper take on this beautiful and already incredibly sentimental dancefloor serenade.

absolute floor banger, two remixes of the famous hellfish vs. producer - daft cant track. with on the a side a vicious hellfish swearing academy remix and on the b side a fast relentless remix by the speed freak. absolutely late night dancefloor material.

guy gerbers supplement facts imprint continues to drop the bombs, this time courtesy of brooklyn-based duo no regular play, with their searing package. >fall up to the sky< featuring the molten vocals of maya hatch and a blinding remix from life and death. the ep came about after label head guy gerber heard a recording of an nrp live set at an after party and was struck by one particular synth line, so much so that he contacted the pair shortly after to discuss a release. a prevailing musical connection on both sides made supplement facts the natural destination for.

black waves is 4 tracks of deep, dark club music. since the release of his critically acclaimed album >generation hexed<, drums of death has been obsessively developing a deeper and darker sound that is tailored for the dance-floor. black waves fuses frantic 808 drum patterns and dramatic synth lines with fresh, contemplative melodies. its music born out of its makers passion for techno and house.
