one of our best selling labels, who have really carved out a niche for sublime, chilled but chunky grooves a side is dropout –seeing coyote stepping onto the dancefloor whilst still keeping all the elements of their sound. electric guitars, arpeggios, and a catchy little melody. tranced out, chugging and laidback in equal measures. the remix of dropout by deadstock 33s-the balearic godfather himself-justin robertson takes the track into chunky electro dub bounce territory. the flip sides >how you doin< is a laid back slice of dubby balearica with a remix from the international peoples gang who offer up a supreb remake, reminiscent of weatheralls early 90s output coyote and is it balearic doing exactly what it says on the label !is it balearic…?-oh yeah

the pump ep is a typically genre-bending mixture of pumping, groovy house tracks, exploring the many sides of this highly regardedproducers fruitful repertoire. lead track the pump is a vivacious number that takes a clean, modern house aesthetic as a base and later infuses it with a dirtier, earlier morning vibe, with phoniques playful use of the resplendent chord stabs. its a slow burner indeed, and yet another example of his effortless arrangement talents. fancying a spot of fresh air and a trip into the audio countryside, bike ride is an even more playful journey into the kooky electronic world of phoniques studio outings. solid drums and warm sub bass provide the energy for all manner of pops and tweaks to unfold. its another deeper track but be warned it still has the power to lift a crowd up onto its tip-toes. going down more of a techno route, tooltime completes the package and breaks out the big guns for some serious heads down dancefloor ignition. urgent and tight late night action, not for the faint of heart, the tracks title is too modest - it should really read ‚ peak time

2 sides - 2 styles - 1 artist. side a features samuel l. jacksons voice in a great bigbeat track, while the flip gives us the kicking side of techno with melodic moments.

made to play brings the noise with the sounds of wearhouse music and head honcho lee mortimer. lee mortimers exciting, sleazy, demented take on house has been kicking the sh*t out of dance floors and festivals the world over. this e.p is not for the faint hearted but is for those who like to rock a big crowd in a ballistic way. when jimi hendrix played not just one but both sides of it at woodstock in the 70s the place went off its tits and when he reverted back to playing the guitar it just couldnt compare and he never quite got over that. lee mortimer is currently reveling in mass support from the likes of switch, claude vonstroke, diplo and kriss akabusi who apparently likes to play these tracks as a post love ritual, naked and chanting awooga! round the camp fire he has in his bedroom. if you want to embellish the feeling of either hendrix or akabusi in the primes of their existences then get stuck into this release and youll feel like a combination of the two peaking on acid.

franco cinelli, one of the most gifted new producers coming out of argentina, presents here six uncompromisingly quirky club bombs. his previous releases on milnor modern and telegraph have just warmed you up to his sound. now dive in to >profundo amor< and get familiar with these intricately programmed club stompers. you can call it minimal, but when these tracks go ripping through a big pa, thats the last word that will be on your mind. with the opening track >flog<, you get a taste of the freaky after-hours grit that alphahouse records is becoming known for. >m26< is a robotic hair-raiser for the new generation. think minus on steroids. >twisted machine< features a stompy groove and some snare work to drive the dancefloor. >vertientes< is a great dj-tool with a low-slung bassline and dancing synths. >c3d< bounces along with a razor bassline and some tricky transitions. and >project 64< finishes off the lp with a synth line that falls out of the ceiling and straight onto the dancefloor. truly inspiring stuff here, from franco. no filler tracks. all of these are a-sides

killer house tracks ! incl ray okpara, random play and justin side... played by losoul, polder, shinedoe, dave dk, patrice baumel, alex attias, dirt crew, h.o.s.h., nils nurnberg, milton jackson, david k, dan drastic

the label boss returns to his own yore imprint with another stunning solo release. these are different times indeed for andy vaz if the eps three mighty jams are indicative of where his musics heading. the a-sides over here (a glance over prime time mix) roars from the very first moment vaz unleashes its steaming, latin-tinged groove. a far cry from the techno the yore label head once issued, the tune finds vaz exploring straight up dancefloor territory with a dizzying house pulse that straight up rocks. melodies and voices rise to the surface of the dionysian broil and then just as quickly recede, leaving room for a driving bass line to gain the spotlight. the flips hurry hurry (before its too late mix) is classic deep house just as one expects on yore. a jazz-inflected strut with tilman ehrhorns sax playing, wailing over waves of rollicking piano playing and spirited vocal chants. the energy level doesnt flag for the discs final track, bygone times (nostalgia mix), which stokes a fiery house swing with its locomotive pulse, futuristic synth patterning, and high-velocity bass lines. vazs music has never sounded more impassioned and energized than it does in these three tracks and consequently, just as one might predict, different times feels like its over far too soon

hot off the heels of onur Özers most excellent mind melt album kasmir, released october of 2007, comes the reinterpretations on vakants vr division. wonderfully thought out, vr handles remixes exclusively leaving vakant itself pure to its artists. this constellation leaves everyone free to the corruption of their fancy, allowing the artists to choose their own remixers. with onur, finding willing interpreters is not a difficult task and the heavy of the heavies representing the light and dark sides of the force are here on vr04. on the a side loco dice, aka tunisian born yassine ben achour, takes onurs instrument laden >eclipse< and puts it through the treatment. what comes out the other end is popping state-of-the-art tech house with onurs depth and loco dices spontaneous flow. on the flip things get serious. jens zimmermann , the deep, deep, freak out master hailing from frankfurt, contributes his own spin on >sahara<

lo key fu makes his dead famous debut with a belter of a twelve inch. funky/tech is the order of the day here with both sides featuring chopped up female vocals and live instruments alongside squelching synths!

glaswegian alex smoke aka mr. menzies, the man who helped kick start vakant in those blissfully uncorrupted early days, returns with a fresh no-frills attack since his last hanged man ep, va013, 1and half years ago. a sides whirrfless funky abrasiveness stomps heads in a way alter ego would if they were happier people and saw more sun. b1 fud paces along with sprightly spring in its step half cheeky, half roboadventure reminiscent of the early days of perlon. b2s onomatopoetic flingclunk zealously jacks for itself. it is all glory minus the glam and trans-fats. smoke, adding to the current relentless vakant onslaught, makes every reveler feel as limber as 14 year old russian gymnast

we are pleased to welcome dubnoodles whose previous releases on milnor modern and rundlauf musik certainly grabbed our attention. on this ocassion, dubnoodles shows two different sides of his music: the a side is funky as hell. both tracks show highly elaborated grooves with a very pleasant shuffly jazz feel. a must for adepts of frank martiniq, akufen, treplec.., and for those who enjoy playful forward thinking grooves. the b side really gives us the shivering. it unravels extremely emotional melodies, powerful strings and intense crescendos. fans of dial and neo detroit will appreciate. all three tracks are a real blessing. as usual, we tried to pack as much amazing music as possible in this release. enjoy!

einmaleins welcomes berovic & leicher. nedzad berovic and frank leicher are based in frankfurt. you already known them from their releases on >international freakshow< and >level non zero< (together with chris wood as >fresh fried< ). now they bring us three tight tracks, fingerlicking thick cut edgy minimal funk with a spice of africa flavoured and subtle thrown in sexy groove. both sides are incredibly well produced and peak time indeed. a quality package for heavy rotation and all kinds of floors. supported by blody mary, dario zenker, mark henning and mike shannon

this laser lights shows to very colorful sides to glenn...with the grainy but ethereal chords & of the powerfull progressive house workout laser lights of blue to the deep dubby electronica that is chronicles, a simply monsterous ep!!

the e.p showcases some new sides to james sound and has won widespread support and praise. the title track call & response is a shuffly groover which is impeccably produced and arranged. it will be sure to get the floor grooving and has picked up nothing but positive responses from all who have heard it so far. the second track the trinity is james personal favourite of the moment. it goes tough – very tough – and as the slammin groove builds to the point of explosion, it defuses and rebuilds with controlled power. this is an absolute dancefloor bomb...

creating a dubstep sound soaked in electro with psychedelic twist, sick rebel?s music is pulsating, yet emotive. this release showcases both sides of his music, from the melodic bass transmission of >regrets< to the pounding dancefloor anthem of >haze<

the spring time is aproaching and jesus loved you production is blossoming like never before. day by day, the familiy of valentino kanzyanis proteges is getting larger and larger as he keeps on recruiting more and more of the worlds most promising young djs and producers. topping the list of those who have been choosen to bear his sign, here comes chris barratt to show our crowd what he is made of. magicalminimalpopmusic is his second release for the jesus loved you and we can assure you that it is everything its title promises it to be - fun, minimal and emotional. the release expresses two sides of chris barrat. the gentle, almost fragile angel bells is a very kept back piece and is - as chris himself would have put it - all about emotions. whistlechimes is a more dynamic track with a perfectly fitted long bridge in the middle, making one feel chris barrats his huge dj potential.

two years ago, honest jons travelled to lagoswith the great drummer tony allen, to make his first recordings there since his time with fela kuti an album entitled lagos no shaking, a classic of contemporary afrobeat. since then, the label has widely commissioned numerous responses to those new sides. from legends of dance music culture like basic channel in berlin, for example, and founding father of detroit techno, carl craig, and young tigers like dizzee rascals newham generals, mia producer diplo in baltimore, and carioca sensations bonde do role from rio de janeiro. and newrecordings from cairo, saturn, bogota and kingston, jamaica fresh interpretations or complete reworkings by the space jazz pioneersalah ragab, a street brass band descended from sun ras arkestra, highlife inspired afro colombian drummers from the maroon village of san palenque de basilio, and a veteranof count ossies mystic revelation of rastafari.

marcel fengler provides 2 new tracks for this ostgut ton release. having just moved to berlin, the producer displays two different sides of his abilities. theres one primetime tech banger and one more experimental cut with a growing dubstep influence.

three new tracks by mix mup on mikrodisko. three musical statements, instead of drawing from a wide range of samples from old vinyl, as he did on his last release >dj of higher quality<, mix mup this time mostly relies on his own voice and an all-in-one sequencer. you can hear his love for raw chicago-acid-house b-sides, his affinity for italodisco and sonic experimentation. this is not about a clean sound and a clear arrangement, the tracks were produced in a moment for the moment. all tracks were produced in a single session, without quantising, without a screen, without a mouse. always with some scepticism and his tongue in his cheek

ricardo villalobos said >this record is a real bomb, i play both sides to an ecstatic reaction! every dj needs it in the bag<

after the genre-smashing, seven vinyl pressings deep (and counting) success of viktor casanova, there is no way that the italoboyz could possibly top their first appearance on mothership, right? wrong! we are happy to report that they have created an organic techno masterpiece in >bahia<, enlisting the help of one of the greatest jazz musicians of our time - john coltrane. youve never heard the master like this - the italoboyz have molded the original >bahia< into a stomping peak timer as only they can. their trademark monster kick underpins stuttering jazz kits, a playful piano line, and an insistent, soulful tenor sax sample from the man himself (cleared after four months of intense negotiations). bahias intro leads into one of the most surprising and euphoric breaks you will ever hear. there are two versions to choose from - the party swing mix gets right to the point, grabbing you by the scruff of your neck. the flip sides mucho lungo mix is perfect for those late night warehouse moments, taking its time to deliver the sweet payoff

thumping house gear from ferrer and sydenham on this 10inch release on ibadan. behind a booming bassline and a little french kiss synth influence as well, double penetration is perfect for that late night floor action, with a little progressive feel in the sweeping synth lines setting it off just right. both mixes glide effortlessly along - in fact if you get 2 copies and play both sides one after the other, the results would be outstanding!

tech -/minimal -/electrohouse tracks made in italy by jay high & fabrix, franz, blanda & galati and ferro & sarullo. includes scalambrin & sicily mixes

twice high quality dark atmospheric techno deepness. nebula is the more straight forward track, thick pounding rhythm and vibes make it ending up somewhere between mills & maurizio, raw straight techno. estuary gives some deeper dubby vibes. revived is the delsin sub-label ann aimee! once again outlet for the more experimental sides of delsins electronic music. after the superb fine release by james kumo, another fine debut ep. this ep is done by delta funktionen, who goes in real life by the name of niels luinenburg. 23 years old - living in the northern part of holland. hes inspired by maurizio, basic channel, convextion, carl craig, steve rachmad, jeff mills, robert hood and others. the superb artwork is done by another delta, namely delta inc

a very special release this one! with both sides of this 12incher features an exclusive trip to a legendary name of the hardcore scene!

earlier this year, todd sines inaugurated yore with the slamming techno-funk of the .xtrak release back_up ep and now returns for round two with dont stop. without losing the stripped-down, minimal tech-house funk essence of the .xtrak sound, sines ups the acid-house ante considerably in the new material. the old-school title cut makes an immediately vivid impression by repeating the insistent vocal hook >dont stop<-both command and mantra-over a towering backbeat. >cut to the chase< does exactly that with funky handclaps and syncopated swing, while the b-sides low-riding >unreflect< pairs dropouts and bass-crawling boogie. slightly different in character, the squiggly acid-techno track >quantum mechanics< is as precision-tooled as its title suggests. despite the subtle shift in stylistic emphasis, dont stop offers a splendid complement to the earlier release

a limited 300 copies release on dub recordings. superb 90s detroit / uk techno with some electronic trickery. square bells track is nothing less then genius... b-sides show the more techno-ish side of bernardi (octogen)... very good record!!.

peter gabriels big times gets a phat breaks booty treatment !!!

midnight surprise is the beautifully epic second single from lightspeed champion, a truly unique 10 minute track from the forthcoming debut album. available on limited lavender coloured vinyl. with humorous references to his own stage name, the popular video game the legend of zelda and to sexual frustration, midnight surprise is a dreamlike hook laden tale in 3 parts. backing vocals are courtesy of emmy the great and group vocals from members of tilly and the wall, son ambulance and other musicians from omaha, nebraska where the album was recorded with producer mike mogis. it features 2 b sides, no surprise (original demo) and flesh failures (let the sunshine in), which is a beautiful rendition of the widely known track from the musical hair.

similar to naughty filthy mouthed teenagers – >homecoming< off the new single, is full of foul innuendoes and lyrics that would make serge gainsbourg blush. with its nonchalant and biting humour, >homecoming< is a 21st century >summer loving< set to a sleazy lo fi french pop backround , a wash with guitar hooks and soaring electro synth riffs. now released on kitsuné , the label that helped launch the careers of klaxons and crystal castles, the teenagers homecoming is set to be huge in clubs too. thanks to the monster it became under guns n bombs remix work : already a club hit from both sides of the atlantic. the parisian vibe is added by the young producers gentlemen drivers and nyc is bringing its filthy prog house vibe through passions synths

following their celebrated >meat is murder< ep, meat, aka carsten schuchmann, teams up with get physical regular einzelkind, arno völker and migual ayala, for >words from the frontline<. the ep opens with its title-track, words from the frontline. indeed, the word >frontline< is appropriate - the firm kickdrum sets the tone and pace before a hi-hat tattoo reminiscent of a military march asserts itself. rushing synth effects edge in from the sides before the track expands to accomodate a bending, feintly jazzy keyboard motif. this is quickly absorbed into the tracks fierce, linear 4x4 progression, and the addition of crisp snap-claps make this a winning modern take on 2nd wave detroit-style techno.

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
