its already well-known that cocoon recordings is a sucker for tracks that stand out of the usual field of - lets be honest - often uniformly reduced tech-house, and the past nine years of the labels history have proven this sustainably. and the rhein-neckar area based team flatner/lopazz are again two hot candidates to leave their very special mark on the summer of 2009. after all, circlemusic manager alex flatner is rocking the floors as a dj and producer for already 10 years now, having been releasing for labels such as harthouse or black nation, whereas the heidelberg-born stefan eichinger aka lopazz has made himself a name with releases on imprints from the likes of output, international deejay gigolo and mainly get physical. together they celebrate a very funky understanding for percussive techno, which is setting highly meaningful moments for the primetime, particularly by means of lascivious vocals. i wanna take you all night long, for sure! and you definitely cant find a better expression for the perfect pounding symbiosis between bass-focused club stompers and economically dosed pop elements than its time to make up your mind.

one of the great aspects of the endlessly varying bass music soundwave is the way it seems able, even compelled, to fuse antecedant styles and genres to itself. in the most innovative hands, influences from last month are absorbed and reworked as smoothly as those from last century, and creativity sparks brightest when the marriage of form and function takes place beyond recognised boundaries? and it?s from that unrestricted zone that uk producer o-dessa emerges. opening with an initial resemblance in sound to the same plaintive blue air of burial, as these tracks resonate deeper in the mind, it becomes clear that this sonic affinity is merely a veil beneath which a new heart beats. the rhythms lurking below the bassline in ?deeper? are like some undiscovered amalgam of old skool hardcore and something you might hear on the latest dirty south mixtape, which somehow manage to defy sense and co-exist in a driving and breathtaking way. mournful mariachi horns and a plunging dub bassline intermingle in a desolate approximation of sergio leone?s western soundtracks, while reedy flutes and distant female voices build a swirling vapour through which skittering woodblocks and metallic ticks raise an anxious sense of motion. anchored by a vast, cone-melting sub-bass undertow, ?deeper? s treasures are buried well below the surface. the juxtapositional subtle-tear-out nature of o-dessa?s production is even more apparent in ?million dollarz?, which reveals itself in stages to be a gradual descent into layers of tweaked amen breaks, but with a grandeur unlike anything previously heard, even though that drum pattern has already been chopped countless ways over the years. it?s not until midway through its five-and-a-half minutes that the famous phased snares rise from the dense banks of atmospherics, but when they do, a moment of blurred euphoria hits and the tune bursts into colourful life. this 12¬ is the first broadcast of many more to come from o-dessa, as - like many have in their own way before and still more strive to do so now - he embarks on his individual journey in the continual reinvention of bass music. instant thrill junkies won?t find their fix in these grooves, but followers of the path less travelled will recognise many signs pointing the way to a rich future.

after releasing his first lp on ai records in 2008 we proudly welcome datassette on echoecho. let s just say that this is the outcome of an interference of majestic strings, amazing basslines and deeply compounded beats. besides rocking the dancefloor mr davies definitely knows how to draw attention with his craft.these thrilling compositions reach from the hymnic ôthe aviatrixö to the laidback and atmospheric ômicroö and back to the superior and bassheavy ôhumansö before ending with the melancholic piece of ôweather conditionsö. datassette conveys a large variety of influences which create his absolutely outstanding deep sound. in other words he manages to merge the atmosphere of then and the vision of now to transfer the sound onto his own bright level.

the seventh kitsune maison compilation, the lucky one! kitsune gets more and more professional but stays as fresh and passionate as ever. with a constantly expanding network and always more discoveries, talents soon to blow-up, hopes, love, happiness and he-do-nism the maison is not so much a withdrawal, but more of a welcoming space, open to all winds. there are newcomers but also loyalty, some artists are now firmly part of, not just the maison, but the kitsune family. lately the bands from the kitsune maison compilations have also started to play some collective shoxs together: kitsune en vrai! (kitsune for real!) the kitsune sieve keeps on searching for gold and inevitably some mornings the discoveries put you in a good mood. so heres already the seventh compilation : the one that strikes lucky!

the clubhit by mish mash now available in an extended version and remixed for maximum floor-impact by soul avengerz, king unique and seamus haji.
