says mr saturday night about their first release … this is mister saturday night, a party thrown by justin carter and eamon harkin. with a love of great music and a passion for building community, the mister works to create an experience that is truly fun and engaging for everyone involved. we find just the right space, install our very own sound system, make it feel like home and present music that we love all night long.

when the house music phenomenon was beginning, chicago djs like ron hardy and new yorkers such as frankie knuckles and larry levan would edit records for their own purposes, removing the parts they felt to be superfluous, concentrating instead on extending grooves and hooks, often adding their own basic synth lines and toughening up the percussion with what have now become classic synthesizers and drum machines. warehouse classics vol.1 holds 4 killer tracks going from obscure disco to new wave, first popularised at the music box and rarely heard anywhere else. sir leon greg (another incarnation of perseus traxx) jams out then reinforces some edits of forgotten classics with a raw & personal analogue treatment for a devastating full effect on the dance floor, that is a far cry from the proliferation of over-produced squeaky-clean software edits. these are basic, raw ideas thrown down quickly and capturing the energy on 1/4 inch tape before moving on to the next set of sounds. musically, its as delightfully funky and uncomplicated as youd expect, a mesh of disco tracks and heavy, effect laden, machine-funk. essential item!!

limited edition single sided white label. claude vonstroke teams up with jaw, lead singer of the notorious dop crew for a trippy slab of modern funk. this marks the very first time vonstroke has worked with a singer and we think the results are great. jaws smooth falsetto harks back to singers like curtis mayfield and the backing track is filled with trademark dirtybird flavor. the record is a slow building jam that builds into an almost church-like resolution filled with spiraling space echoes and organs that is sure to set off all the right rooms.

mak & pastemans contribution is a high tech bass bomb built around a carefully chosen sample that devastates right from the start.

die stecker wurden gezogen, die drums in der garage gelassen – hansonis kommt heuer auf ganz leisen sohlen daher. akustikgitarre, zurückgenommener gesang und ein paar tupfer e-gitarre, klavier und keyboards – mehr benötigt der musiker nicht, um “shark week“ zu einer zwingenden angelegenheit zu machen. von folk über country und blues bis hin zur mörder - ballade – hansonis schlendert auf seiner melancholischen reise durch die songwriter-genres, veredelt seine songs aber immer wieder durch die entscheidende prise distinguierten 80er-pops. hier ein unwiderstehlicher melodiebogen, da eine prägnante phrasierung – der kölner vermählt us-amerikanische musik - traditionen mit einem britisch geprägten popverständnis und dreht am ende sein ganz eigenes ding draus.

the robert glasper experiment blurs the boundaries between jazz, hip-hop, r&b, and rock & roll.

dont be afraid present spargel trax, a two part series of vinyl-only, coloured, hand-stamped 12 inches designed to celebrate the dual themes of great seasonal music and great seasonal spargel. contributing tracks across the two 12 inches are some of our favourite artists currently making house music. from established artists like disco nihilist, andy blake, sound species and james duncan to up and coming artists like david joseph from cologne, hodge from bristol, untitled-w from st. petersburg, for whom this is the first outing on wax, and scott fraser from glasgow. no clues though as to which is which, you will have to just listen to the tracks and hear for yourself! proof that 2012 is a great time for music, a great time for wax and a great time for spargel.

following dj qs vinyl-only brandy & coke local actions second release of 2012 comes from slackk – one of our favourite djs and producers.paul lynch has been one of londons best kept secrets for years, he founded the pirate radio website grimetapes, and produces as both slackk (releases on numbers) and patrice & friends (last years cashmere sheets album featured high on fact and the wires best of 2011 lists).raw missions is his most substantial statement yet – a tribute to the widescreen grime of producers like ruff sqwad, wiley, oddz and alias, all massive influences on both him and local action. its heavy with a tinge of longing, and full of power.first pressing comes housed in an album-style sleeve with spine

what we have here is an album which is, if i may say, relatively positive and generally good for home listening. this album was recorded in about 10 weeks in a living room (the sofa being my bed), with restless swollen eyes at dusk and a love/hate relation with my machines, microphone and electric guitar.3 machines gave up on me during the making of this lp.i hope you will like it. tolga.

the third and last format:b vinyl-package is adjusted! subject matter still is the current album restless which has been taken on by big name artists of the international surroundings of the two. in pole position a1 this time is the italian uto karem. he took a shot at piano man and hits the keys just like we are used to from format:b. with his version of socks & sandals the dutch dj madskillz comes around the corner. its his second pounding release on formatik records after his carnival chaos ep. a debut however is given by the also italian artist fernando tessis who keep his eyes upon warped and who went into the remix battle with trumpets and timpani giving no less attention to his demonstration of his garland of corn on b2.

three years have passed since the last moon harbour inhouse compilation came out. now >moon harbour inhouse vol.4< is on its way. in accordance with the tried and tested concept, this release also showcases the work of current moon harbour artists. in addition to exclusive tracks by matthias tanzmann, luna city express, dan drastic, ekkohaus, martinez, italoboyz, andy catana and blind minded, special guests like reboot, guido schneider, boris werner and tini & marc antona are also represented on this compilation. the list of artists clearly demonstrates that moon harbour has developed into a label with international scope and appeal. this sampler was compiled and mixed by dan drastic, who has been part of moon harbours artist roster for more than seven years and recently released his >noodle stories ep< on our label.he regularly hosts the moon harbour nights at the leipzig club distillery and is one of the most active moon harbour deejays, together with matthias tanzmann and luna city express

fresh out of melbournes reputed house scene, the tortoise is one of the hottest talents to emerge from the current wave of house breaking down under. a side the puffing tortoise captures the 21-year-olds precocious talent and aims it squarely at the peak time. working his trademark airy vocals around a familiar disco refrain and bubbling bass, he works the track into a sweaty climax and skilfully keeps it there throughout the midsection. turning in a late night chugger on their remix, berlin based canadians the mole and hreno ride an insistent pulse and insect like percussion. twisting the samples, they guide the track into a dark jungle of chattering sounds to temper the tortoise youthful exuberance. the analogue melancholy of keep on keepin on is all in the sweeping synths and twinkling effects. recoiling the tension, the chicago influenced track seeps through the speakers and will sound as good at home as it will during specially chosen dancefloor moments. rondenion approaches the title track with fearless disregard for the original, combining the swelling tortoise sound with something entirely his own. his addition of a funk fuelled midsection, really breaks the track down and adds another slice of character to an ep already brimming with it.

ander-traxx is a fresh label operating out of glasgow with the intent of releasing righteous underground house, and although mainly a platform for the labels founder alex-ander to showcase his own productions, ander-traxxs remit also includes the presentation of unknown talent for future releases. for this first release, alex steps up to the plate to deliver because of me, followed by 3 remixes from artists born and raised in glasgow. the original kicks things off with its intro of glacial pads and jittery hats, before quickly delving into a seriousely deep groove brimming with melodic layers. although because of me gives a strong nod to the recent developements of producers like omar s and kyle hall, it undoubtedly has the hallmarks of an alex-ander production, his unique arrangements coming to the forefront while still complimenting the crisp percussion that drives the track forward. carlos nilmmns (co founder of the formidable solab production unit) mix is a much more off-kilter and submerged affair. nilmmns plays down the epic quality of the original and adds chugging rhythmics and sweetcured piano work for a lesson in divine repetition. mesumas feedback mix goes in for the dancefloor attack, not surprising for a gentleman whos previous work has seen releases on hardgroove and seventh sign. rolling toms and a booming kick meet aquatic vocal samples and spectral harmonicas, and will still please those partial to deeper sounds. last up to give because of me the rework treatment is meschi (lunar disko, lux, snuff traxx), who mixes his chicago influenced analogue stylings perfectly with the source material. stripped down crescendos build up to a euphoric drop, and meschis elated melodies bring another twist to this excercise in deep funk. because of me is one of those rare e.ps that works just as well in a non-club enviroment as it does on the dancefloor. with this warning shot, alex-ander will surely be capturing the ears of many in 2012 and beyond.

the two brothers known as kyodai strike back, showcasing their phenomenal musical education on local talk. what else to expect from a duo that gained respect from musical heavy weights like masters at work, jimpster, gilles peterson and releases on freerange & nitelife. on >breaking< the beats and bassline are in constant motion, building the track with suble hooks into an epic breakdown which tears the track apart and then rebuilds it even bigger. the 90s mix is a stripped down version of the original, with that organ hook we all love and refuse to stop dancing too, accompanied with strings and percussion that ties the whole track together and brings back memories of a hot and sweaty sunday afternoon at body & soul, in the 90s! local talk is talking to you!

nice price deal !!! after a creative break esance is answering the eternal call for high-standing, frisky, spiced-up tunes with their third release. the two soulboys from florence called minimono, consisting of tenax resident fabio della torre and ennio colaci, are very well known for their crisp and unique productions, combining uptempo- house with teasingly and varied disco and funk elements. hey you is reflecting nothing else than their wide vision of a memorable and eclectic style of music. this piece of joy is impossible to categorize and thats exactly as we like it. rollerball in the other hand, kind of speaks for itself! if you ever want to get your mood rolling, listen to this very powerful outcome of a perky bassline, some haunting percussions and a kooky build up, that really nails it down! to keep the name of esance in honour, the addition of a remix from one of the last living rockstars was inevitable. the interpretation of rollerball from dc10 resident mass prod is a vigorous weapon designed for his established territory, including hot moments, early hours and wild happenings.

a crossover between pop, house/techno and new wave is the dress of the fourth wwr 004 chapter. we think is useless to say anything about the new release of the duo altarboy. fortunatelly in music matters what do you feel, not what we say. listen is the best way to tell if you like it. we like it very much!

after a superb 2011 for crosstown rebels, they are now proud to present their next album, amirali >in time<. tipped as a one to watch for 2012 (mixmag), iranian/canadian producer amiralis debut album is truly exceptional, a subtle combination of house, techno, funk, electronica and downbeat with indie sensibilities. the album is reminiscent of depeche mode, radiohead, underworld and art department all through a modern electronic paradigm. amirali features on vocals on the album and is already being widely, regarded as one of the most accomplished debut albums of recent years. his recent single beautiful world (featuring remixes from deniz kurtel, daniel bortz & hrdvsion) was met with rapturous appeal gaining an ever-increasing legion of fans. in time is a fantastic body of work, from the hit singles my way, beautiful world and just an illusion to the down tempo painting on a canvas and last words, the album is full of beautiful sonic vignettes. other highlights include the broken beat whisper, the infectious hear me and the mammoth sounds of my life. just an illusion will be released shortly after the album featuring mk, franck roger and appleblim remixes. amirali has succeeding in producing a mesmeric and consummate body of work. the album has already been playlisted on npr and looking like another big album release for crosstown rebels.

davide squillaces new this and that imprint will launch with a three track twelve inch entitled >manifesto<. the ep sees the label delivering two brand new productions from the this and that boss himself in addition to a collaboration between davide and mexican singer, alex nazar. the three tracks explore the kind of genre-defying, blend of club atmospheres and emotions that this and that will stand for. this and that lab will combine music, art and culture to provide a platform for like-minded artists to develop a host of creative projects. the first outlet of the lab will be music and it is with >manifesto< that we welcome you to this and that.

from gui borattos latest album iii comes >this is not the end<, an indie minded track that convincingly demonstrates guis impressive skill set when it comes to emotional narratives embedded in a distinctively monumental context. like his timeless >beautiful life< and last years album highlight >destination: education< (already remixed to perfection by terranova and tale of us), >this is not the end< features the beautiful vocals of luciana villanova, who seems to know exactly what makes gui tick - which doesnt come as a surprise, as they are married – and possesses this rarest of all gifts, an unique voice that seems to address each listener personally. in his own 2012 mix featured here, gui doesnt so much concentrate on the originals tearjerking qualities (which were already fully formed), but streamlines the arrangement for ease of use on the floor of your choice, making the track even more refined and addictive. those of you looking for a slighty more adventurous approach will find their satisfaction with michael mayers rework on the flipside, where the source materials hypnotic qualities are brought to the fore, resulting in a masterful slice of catchy prime time psychedelica. with both mixes turning out to be instant classics, we can definitely confirm that this is not the end.

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.

rising parisian producer yakines career pretty much defines the word eclectic — in his teens, he was a bona fide metalhead, playing guitar in a metal band that toured all over europe, before his love of hip hop steered him in the direction of the dancefloor. he really found his home behind the decks, however, and once he discovered the world of electronic music via the patronage of his brother—who introduced him to the sounds of underground deep house and techno — yakine quickly moved into production. he has since released a series of eps on european labels like esperanza and jetaime records. the rise ep is his first release for spectral sound, a four-track slab of understated, atmospheric techno.

kruse & nürnberg feat. karina junker - home by six: the hamburg duo kruse & nürnberg return with another sure-shot in their trademark groovy and reduced house sound. designed for the most discerning dancefloors, the subliminal, sultry vocals of karina junker are twisted around an infectious jam. smooth rhodes flutters indulge the funk within and the result is an unmissable spring-time frolic.
matthias meyer - levant: father of >tout va bien< and >infinity< brings his latest deep-charge to the table with >levant<. playful, filtering drums and percussive fills work a complex groove into the foreground while a gently growing melodic theme builds. its a real summertime beauty that once again firmly plants meyer on the map. ebbing and flowing like the fresh breeze, dont be surprised to hear this one at many an open air this season!

with >dazed<, senking continues his exploration of the abysses of sound to create dark and gloomy atmospheres. the slow beats of the two tracks are accompanied by tender, harmonic melodies, but broken by nervous, unsteady tones which seem to be a warning against hidden dangers. the first track >the dance hall walk< also features a vocal sample by micheal cramm - a text which reflects the nervousness and excitement in anticipation of some thrilling things to come. like >tweek<, senkings last ep, >dazed< is not only concerned with the depths of sound, but also with the depths of the human psyche, where there is no escape other than music itself.

nice price deal !!! keyboard kid is from seattle. following a string of critically acclaimed self-released beat tapes, remixes and insane amount of productions for lil b (keyboard kid is lil b s main producer) donky pitch are proud to present to you his first official solo release, the transition ep. five tracks of hyper-charged synth workouts, off-the-grid hip hop and computer techno.

in his biography, arjuna schiks is described as a producer with an ability to bring the human out of the machine, unleashing our emotions. after listening to doha , we were affected in the same way. simply put, his music makes us feel good. melodic accents and danceable rhythms blend in purposeful unison, and it is with the doha ep that arjuna will join wir. he has appeared on gem records, manual music, traum, and trapez, with original eps, and has recently graced a number of labels with remixes, leaving his signature on each ep. his production output is impressive, and like most greats, his sound continues to grow and develop with each studio session. arjuna resides in amsterdam, where he has developed a distinct and solid sound, and a loyal fan base. he performs live close to every weekend all over holland. we invited arjuna to come and perform as the special guest at our treibstoff 14.5 year anniversary party for his first ever performance on german soil. his set was received with smiling faces and hands in the air, coming from the brimming dance floor of colognes gewölbe, a warm welcome to say the least. we had the pleasure of spending some time together after the event, and his character is just like his music. he is a cheerful and passionate person with a bright sense of humor and we are elated to welcome him to wir. keep your ears open, for there is more to come..

if you like the sound of cheap analog synthesizers from the mid 80s, drum machines and strangely pitched human voices this might be the record for you. a small warning about the quite melodic and poppy arrangement, it is not minimal, nor pure drones. sorry. estelle ep has nothing to do with the car Škoda estelle, even though some instruments used on the songs were produced during the same years. estelle ep is more or less a result of the new kranglan broadcast hardware studio environment. the plan was simple: to get rid of the machines that were not being used and to make the rest communicate with each other. this resulted in some very fine jams where realtime feelings and spontaneous ideas were converted into music. each track is its own moment in time.

the debut release of christopher rau on mule musiq. christopher rau have released from such a amazing label like smallville records or dj kozes pampa. he is definetly one of the best artist in the modern deep house scene. title track on a side is quite unique deep house tune. its like a collaboration of larry heard and dj koze. on b side, >that dam love< is already picked up for mule label compilation >im starting to feel ok vol.5< this track is his trademark melancholic house tune. >balance live< is more minimal&alternative.

almost four years after his last dial record single >miles< lawrence is back with another tribute to the sun. in the meantime he was still busy with a couple of releases for mule musiq, laid, smallville and dj kozes pampa imprint. his first mix cd >timeless< has been recorded lately for cocoon recordings. coming home to his own imprint prooves once more how modern house music should sound like: deep, moving and always surprising. >etoile du midi already travelled around the globe including tokyo, london, berlin and hamburg to finally being cut on vinyl after bringing the magic to all those lovely clubs worldwide

for uzuri 018 we return to one of our home grown artists – jitterbug. time has flown since his last release for us in 2010, but we have been quite eager to get some new material out from him for a while – and, based on feedback we have had, plenty of other people are keen to hear more from him too. both his raw winter and beaten trax eps were pretty popular releases for us and his dj appearances always create a stir, so we are pleased to bring you this, the arcane theory ep. the track sequencing on this record is pretty aggressive – front-loaded with the confrontational rise of the machines. a track that really lives up to its title, sounding like the production line at cyberdyne systems… all stomp and evil synths, like a bad mood e-dancer. fallout couldnt be further from that – relaxed and making no attempt at all to get in your face. itll win you over, though. just a nice, deep groove and a lovely, phased beat. could play it for hours… the whole of the flip is devoted to nomads, a chiming, acidic wander. nearly eleven minutes in length. the kicks never at the fore on this one – most of the action occurs at the mid and high frequencies – a resonant 303, lots of hi hats and, later, synths which expand on the eastern-flavour of the track title

dutch millipede nick lapien offers a view of one of his intriguing projects, this time as metropolis. this alter-ego, inspired by the 1927 cultfilm, gives his idea of how the city would look like if it was created out of musical waves. neo-electronic, mechanical, raw and as dark as a film noir. limited copies on the nice other heights label

part 2/3! deep house – uh killer?! dear gorge just like we know him. hardly anyone puts so much energy into a yet so low key appearing track and this is what we love him for. gorge was a history witness for our biggest light installation and the most oppulent feast, as is his right. certified ass-shaking tune with a joyous organ going hand in hand with a female vocal. there is no more to say about this track as it speaks for itself. reminiscing igors 10 minute intro in combat gear at the treibgut deluxe. some push did jonas put into this few minute collaboration track with mz sunday luv. it has to be loud, it has to run – it has to take its place on this compilation. homebased in frankfurt jonas was so fond of hannover at a time that he almost moved north. but we could not afford the hotel room for such a long time. deep house making you get rid of your jacket and shake your hips together. get yourself a drink at the bar and head for the dancefloor. nicely smooth this track is driving you into the night. the only night we actually had champagne and still could all make it to the train to hamburg in the morning.

finally the remixes of the celebrated jonsson/alter mod album is here – featuring no less than minilogue, donato dozzy and dorisburg (half of swedish duo genius of time). my god, that took some time. but no harm is done. all remixes has some kind uplifting and sunny trance mode to them, so as it turns out, this is actually the prefect spring release.minilogue starts out with the track kyrka 2.0 and ads both speed and length. donato takes on the track acapellan and does everything right. keeping the beautiful vocals of the original, donato adds bass line and new drums. the ep closes with another swedish contribution. alexander berg aka dorisburg from duo genius of time reworks djup house, and does it well. a solid bass line keeps us grounded to the dance floor while dreamy melodies and harmonies gently lift our serotonin levels. enjoy! before leaving you to the music we would like to thank minilogue, donato dozzy, dorisburg and last but not least, henrik jonsson and joel alter

the majestys pleasure label returns after an extended break with their fourth issue of disco-centric edits and its clear the time out of the spotlight has left this mystery bunch of dusty fingered tweakers fully refreshed. whilst previous volumes have dipped toes in funk filled and philly string led waters, majestys pleasure vol 4 focuses fully on music from the post-disco /proto-house period of the 1980s and sounds very much like a beautiful swimmers dj set condensed into just 12 inches of vinyl. the concerted diggers out there will be consulting their sample notes for the source material on each of these (space palace has the most obvious hook) whilst those whove simply been enjoying output from the intermittent eros label will love both sides here

the sccucci manucci label has done a fine job of handpicking artists on the rise for their releases to date, collaring the likes of casino times, francis inferno orchestra and toomydisco as well as the odd established name like jacques renault. the labels fourth release forza quattro is still grounded in the disco/house sensibility that has served them so well, though the presence of waze & oddysey demonstrates the sccucci a & r team are willing to deviate. the elusive us pair are in the midst of a hot patch right now with releases already burning on body work and southern fried and plenty more due over the coming months, so their presence here is a real coup. i cant hear you sounds vaguely like a extra bouncy cover of the classic rip groove and definitely ranks alongside their output to date. alongside this the white vinyl ep has tempo traversing contributions from fil lavin, sellouts and deadly sins, with the latters slow and chuggy -dont you know- a particular highlight

this is a welcome return from sheffield-based producer grievous angel who has been known for his slew of edits and live remixes - whether it be grime, dancehall, house or uk funky. having done this for keysound label-mates dusk & blackdown as well as random re-works of productions from artists like wiley (check 2009s ice rick refix under the alias of bubblez), grievous angel has got an eye for recycling existing ideas but is no slouch when it comes to his original productions either.

the constant carousel like shift of unreleased tracks on his soundcloud and sporadic twitter sessions, south london ordnance relishes his clandestine, shady persona, keen to allow his craft to act as spokesman instead. following early support from electronic musics matriarch mary anne hobbs, a marauding mixtape for glasgows luckyme earlier this year and big support from mosca, hackman, dark sky and tessela, the amount of hype surrounding this south london (obviously) based beatsmith has been ridiculous. and we are very pleased to say this is his debut release, and a killer 12 inch to pop his recording cherry!

200 ever made. hand made unique covers wrapped, in cellophane envelopes. pressure lost: a sci-fi novel in eight chapters about loss of pressure. in a part of the world where there are no rules, deep in the jungle where nothing that lives is safe, a mysterious artifact has been uncovered. nothing like it has ever been on earth before. it comes from the future, the thing that wont die, in the nightmare that wont end. your future is in his hands. once you go in, you dont come out... nature won is the collaborative project of rasmus mobius and morten bang larsen. rasmus mobius has previously released two albums, as half of melk in 2005, and his solo effort >medicine walk< from 2006, both on statler & waldorf. on this new full-length, morten and rasmus has crafted a new sound, like a tv tuned into a dead channel and the rainbow reflection of a laserdisc.
