welcome return for this very sought-after rare electro 12 inch from tiny harlem label express records. big with the cosmic crowd as well as on the early hiphop scene, this is an extremely cool low-slung synth-heavy electro groover with a hypnotically smooth lead vocal, given a sharp percussive edge by the rattling congas and ticky-time chorus. written at a time in rap music history when the introduction of synthesizer technology created a wild flurry of creativity, this futuristic track by barry michael cooper (who went on to write the screenplays for movies new jack city and above the rim) was teletrons only ever release. film s gain was sadly musics loss as this was, and still is, a boundary-pushing, floor-filling monster. dont sleep!

the debut palace brothers album was released in 1993 when much american music was going through a particularly bombastic period. in contrast >there is no one what will take care of you< sounded like a field recording, as though a tape of back porch confessionals recorded by alan lomax as an example of high southern gothic style, had been newly discovered and released.

zod is the new project from rebels boss damian lazarus and james what. debut warped production >rise before zod< is about to land on rebellion with a diverse duo of remixes from acid pauli and shadow dancer

here uto karem returns to plus 8 for his second release on the label, with the two tracks he serves up - take control and all over you - continuing in the rising italian stars good run of form. as well as being an in-demand remixer, dj and producer, karem also runs his own agile recordings imprint on which he explores the same deep techno rhythms and loopy hypnotism as he does with his two original tracks here.take control is a liquid track which builds in looped layers through piston pumping percussion, up-right beats and plenty of melodic drama. though it pushes on from left to right in true plus 8 style, the warmth and atmosphere that surrounds the main beats and bass is what really sets the track alight. all over you again features a crisp, almost dry production style as various percussive elements flesh out a 4/4 techno groove. hidden within each bar are some wooden sounding hits and various melodic notes, all of which are heart-warming additions to a killer dancefloor groove. as well as this, there is a more driving dub version of take control which canters on a knife edge for its six minute duration, closing out another efficient and streamlined techno release on plus 8.

following a pair of fine releases on fine art and under the shade, james johnston delivers another superb ep for no matter what. >after everything< is a masterfully created slice of rolling deep house flirting with disco styles, punctuated with snippets of disco guitar licks and dubbed out vocal samples, all held together with a sumptuous chord sequence. the comparatively upbeat tempo rhythm and deep subs of >lost the house keys< which follows comes as something of a surprise, and the chopped up piano which causes the track to erupt into a flurry of jacking rhythms only add to the proto-chi house mood. the rest of the tracks continue with the same kind of upbeat pace, with >get back to the feeling< interlacing a variety of female vocal samples within its 909 rhythms, and >xtc< injecting some serotonin into the ep with its razor sharp synth stabs and snares, whose rhythms recall the deadly precision of marc kinchens early productions...

it is one of our traditions to release remixes of our favourite artists and so we are happy to feature top remix artists for this minilogue remix release on traum.
the >drop the mask of self protection< remix of dominik eulberg is a bit of an adventure! unlike his >diorama< album and maybe because of its elaborate musical challenge, he has taken a time-out to create a serious club format in the true eulberg style witnessed on trapez in the past. so what does that really mean for this track? well this remix kicks off a bit of an relaxed percussive and deep house groove and undergoes in its course quite an explosive transformation! with a lot of skill and finesse mr eulberg pulls the strings with accuracy and makes the transfer of what unfolds to be a heavy big pounding techno rocker! thumbs up this is superb and eulberg at his best.

having already appeared on r&s with a remix of model 500 and a track on the iotdxi compilation named >ralph< which showcased his singing voice for the first time, this two track single seems like the natural stepping stone from bullions previous work. replacing what would previously have been samples with his own vocals and instruments played by both himself and some friends, >say arr ee< and >what does she know< continue to show bullion as a music lover of many styles who can identify and combine those elements with an air of sympathetic range and still have a sense of clarity and cohesion.

after a successful launch with the sushi & sex ep of his own label so what music, lars wickinger now comes with the second strike!
>say yes to another excess< is just the right slogan! the track with the same name is a peak time slider! >easy ride< is a cool melodic minimal ride! >jesus wants more fun< will blow up every floor with its knarziger rhythmic bass line! finally >riff raf< is a push forward minimal track with old school flavor!

the last record in wunderkind gerry reads trilogy of 12 inches arrives to round off the first stellar year for fourth wave. all by myself carelessly builds and chops through a dusty loop and brooding male vocal, like a inebriated bum woozily recalling all but forgotten nights dancing at the music box in the early 80s. continuing on the chicago theme, gerry cracks out a jazzy sample and clipped vocals on what a mess blending in his own unique style the unlikely bedfellows of disco house and drone. drone disco house, anybody?

what a listening pleasure! arsen1computerklub is back with his vinyl ep wont you come. here he does himself proud and provides us with two well balanced but rootical tracks that have a lot to offer. emotionally rousing like a thrilling poem, wont you come is taking us charmingly sexy on a journey into spherical realms that you simply cannot escape from. pressing low-tuned basses together with sharp sound passages - almost hymnic - characterise the groove of his tracks. with bacteria we are allowed to sit back, relax and enjoy the seductive flow. the track bacteria with its driving pace, raw and unpolished, is indeed having its finger firmly on the pulse. labels friend kleinschmageraudio is transforming the track wont you come into a breathtaking remix being in fact a sly old dog. with its stomping rhythm the remix is whooshing into your auditory cannels. marvellous!

just in time for the australian summer, sydneys indie-electronic-popettes, convaire bring the first and title tune from their highly anticipated debut ep, the new you. equal measures quiet childhood nostalgia and barefooted summer festival romance, the new you is a sparkling indication of what convaire do so exceptionally well - the art of creating synth-happy, 80s inspired, chill-sweet pop songs. inspired by the likes of talking heads, friendly fires and phoenix, convaire were first given airtime by local sydney radio heroes, fbi radio. since then, the four-turned-five piece released their first single gate track in september 10 to national airplay and gushing reviews. their exceptional reputation was vindicated whilst winning a triple j unearthed initiative, which saw the band play alongside delorean, kele (bloc party) and 2manydjs at sydneys iconic dance festival, parklife. two singles, over one hundred shows and a few tambourine shakes later future classic saw potential in john toweys vocal likening to the cures robert smith and the energy of the synth-loving slattery sisters. the new you ep is available in a 7 inch vinyl package + 5 track bonus cd, which is exciting enough to warrant a shoe shuffle and a couple of hand claps.

ultraschall is an homage to the first big techno club in munich. the owners of harry klein were part of the old ultraschall, which has a unique legendary status nowa¬days. the older generation in particular often long for the good old days. yes those times shouldnt be forgotten, especially not in terms of sound, but its also important to move on and attempt new things. like supporting vinyl, going to a who¬lefood shop or ending war. ok that might sound like a bro¬ken record, but how about spending less time on facebook and actually with your friends, cooking for your parents or organizing a break dance battle in your backyard? daniel takes us on a journey through the past and back to the future again. a charming mixture of laid-back grooves combined with some rough n ready rave moments make this a rapturous trip, no matter what time it is. track names are a really interesting element of music. some artists dont care about them at all and call their tracks a1 or something non-descript. yet many titles can be really funny, others made up words, and some corre¬spond to current events or times. some just really fit the sound. if you lose something, in general its a pretty nasty and unsettling feeling. but you have to deal with bad luck when it strikes. losing something can teach you an im¬portant lesson, or simply show you what it means to be unfortunate and down. not knowing the lows as well as the highs wont allow you to evaluate life very well. most important is to really feel and be yourself, despite the ups and downs.

next up in studio barnhus split coloured 10 inch series (the previous installment was acid andy and axel boman on yellow vinyl) is handsome newcomer hnny and barnhus very own desperado kornel kovacs. on the a side, hnny takes a saccharine rnb cover of perhaps the greatest power ballad ever and turns it into a perfect little edit – as simple as it is inspired, this is an obvious end-of-the-night-turn-the-lights-up-in-the-club-anthem if we ever heard one. on the logo side, kornel kovacs brings the heat with down since 92 - a bass-driven, vocal-laced pop house song about hate, love and jealousy. break it down! red vinyl, no digital - limited to 300 copies worldwide. barnhus bang the party once again! freshness.

after gunnar stillers latest release- the upon you 050- had been served together with marcus meinhardt, wich grew on quite a few dancefloors to a club hit, everyone is of course curious to know what he will put on the dancing feet next. the a1 title >way to wollongong< has been inspired by his australia-tour last year and is tying smoothly on to the agility of his former releases. >antipodians< on side b1 is therefore taking more time for the housework and is sprouting his introspectively chords through the bush of the outback. the remixes are coming from our upon you shooting star marcus gehring who adopted to wollongong and timid boy who is doing the digital exclusive remix.

london based james what is a well known musician treading the more left-field and creative end of the tech house spectrum. his numerous eps alongside dan berkson have become poker flat classics in recent years and so we are happy to welcome him in his first solo effort for the label. lead cut >it feels wrong< fuses classic analog bass with lively synth work and satisfyingly complex question-answer passages that whisk us away into a sweaty, late night vibe immediately. berlin based lord of the witching hour lee curtiss adds his touch on the remix side with a killer acidic treatment of >it feels wrong<. tense, soulful and teasing, this warm and super playable version will no doubt find its way to freaky dancefloors everywhere. >in the dark< slowly builds edgy, spooky elements in a deep, dark and sexy trip. combining smooth chords and keys, with trippy synths and sinister vocal snippets, whats bright and clear production works wonders in this slow-burner.
