christian smiths tronic label enjoyed a fantastic year in 2011, persistently receiving plaudits from the media, scene tastemakers and the record buying public for the labels consistently first-rate output that consisted of a genre-blurring mixture of tech house and progressive flavoured techno floor-smashing grooves. since meeting in berlin during summer of 2011, christian smith and florian meindl have stuck up a productive studio partnership. having released their first collaboration - desire - via meindls flash imprint in december, this subsequent ep for tronic sees the duo take their corporation a stage further with a two tracks of slightly left of centre yet unashamedly peak-time tech house. mothership leads off the ep with a distinctive retro-electro bassline that builds into the main hook via a series of peaks and drops before taking off into a tweaked crescendo of high-pitched tones. red alert opts for a subtler approach, creating its simple but effective groove from jacking percussion and wobbly synth stabs, which pulse throughout, morphing to distorting and echoing in the break.

eduardo de la calle releases three new records, two on analog solutions, and one on sub label suprawax. musically, the tracks tie in with where he left of, featuring held back percussion, hypnotic and prolonged use of slowly modulated patterns. several tracks even do away completely with hi-hats. once in a while the almost trademark tweak of the delay tears the tracks open that are otherwise reduced to the essence of a deep groove. these records mark a new high point in de la calles musical output: they meld an awareness of techno history - and, let us be candid, sometimes samples out of it - with a tripped-out understanding for the passing time on the dance floor. the result is a form of distinctly contemporary dance music. all the same, de la call’s music eludes present day trends of going overtly retro and being contently at rest in nothing but epigonism. nor are they the maximised-to-death tracks spun of the present day techno functionalist goading crowds by the means of formalistic upbuilds over and over. his sound carves out a niche quite its own: its the ultimate modern day dj tool. all records have been pressed in a run of 320 copies and come in inside-out natural cardboard sleeves. no represses are planned at present.

it has been half a year since we released the last max cooper ep on traum, so his new finished ep comes in handy for all of his fans and people interested in the grey zone of techno vs. electronica. max coopers new release the >egomodal ep< comes as a 4 tracks ep and adds up to a great piece of music. once again it focuses on dynamics and tangents, along with the concept of complexity and simplicity. the >egomodal ep< stays true to max coopers approach to link a mathematical structure with a simple one. we are happy to say he has succeeded to fuse complexity with variations by still finding time to focus on details and keeping up that nice randomness which makes his music so appealing also for clubbers and djs.

if you have been following graeme clark in his solo disguise as the revenge or the stream of 6th borough project 12-inches leading up to this one, you should know what to expect here—deep, blissfully hypnotic sampledelia with track flows governed by the laws of extreme repetition. its a shame that trance means a particular subgenre of electronic music, because that term applies just as much to the effects of these tracks as anything tiësto has ever played.
given the space, clark and craig smith are able to utilize this formula over a broad musical spectrum, creating music in the full-fledged sense, one that traces a landscape of tempos, styles and emotions and a menagerie of resurrected sounds conjures up images of dusty record shops and tattered vinyl, musical spirits captured on wax. awesome!

the debut release on poem by neotnas, is set to showcase both the labels outlook and pedigree. the outlook of quality, from the music, to the pressing and artwork, and the pedigree, which is proven in the history of tobias duffner, who ran fauxpas musik, and his choice of upcoming artists already slated to release on poem. neotnas hails from the city of chelyabinsk in russia, and delivers a mature yet fresh ep of deep, well versed grooves. to grant it a genre would narrow the appeal of these tracks, but rest assured those from house or techno backgrounds will both find common ground. these tracks stand out for their almost unearthly feel, and its easy to hear that neotnas are close to the ural mountains, in tracks like kai, or that day, which serve both the head and the feet. the future for poem lies in cultivating new artists as talented as neotnas, to go alongside proven ones, as a list of remix names show how poem will progress: convextion/e.r.p., anton zap, modern stalking and mlz to name a few already at work.

the long awaited dubplate anthem is here! as soon as we at ns-hq heard >drum track<, we knew atlantas helix would fit right in around here. his two main obsessions are old grime and looping hypnotic berlin techno. and it shows, as both collide here to produce the ultimate rhythm track. this is anthemic 8 bar techno, or sublow gone hands-in-the-air raving. this trak destroyed every festival we played at last summer. this is super-stripped down, poised club music - exactly what night slugs is all about. on the flip, we are honoured to have one of our all-time favourite mic controllers flirta d bless drum track with his >no hook no bs< version. known best for such grime bangers as slks >hype hype< and his own >warp speed<, flirta brings that unique sound-effects laden flow to the riddim like its 2004 again and triumphant rave anthems are going off once more.

last year’s ‘the age of compassion’ by chicago underground house don tevo howard was one of the standout tracks for buzzin’ fly in 2011with widespread dj and media support. it joined his burgeoning body of work on other acclaimed labels such as rush hour and his own beautiful granville. now tevo returns with his follow-up for buzzin’ fly. if ‘the age of compassion’ was a simple and elegant dancefloor bump wrapped in warm analogue melancholia, then the ‘monument ep’ is its nemesis - a stark future-retro reinterpretation of the origins of house music build from the bare components of machines: raw drums, sub bass, sine waves, square waves and oscillators. and yet there is still a burnished beauty to this ep. all three tracks seems to find echoes of each other in their arrangements and brittle harmony. machine music for the modern age edged with passion and feeling, and another fresh step for its producer.

dollys first release in 2012 and immediately setting a high standard for the year to come! this time aroy dee under his mos disguise is delivering the deepness, and this one could be very well one of his strongest releases to date. present as usual are his trademark vintage synths & drums, but this goes beyond the average retro chicago stuff. skillfull on the machines while its very clear the music comes from deep within. marcel fengler on remix duty adds a little techno punch, which perfectly tops of this very fine release.

with their feet firmly positioned on dutch soil, the heads and hearts of dam swindle are nonetheless rooted deep into the soul of the motor city, and this ep of finely crafted grooves on jimmy posters and huxleys fledgling saints & sonnets imprint is as brilliant a reflection of their obsession as you could expect. >the wrap around< combines a killer vocal hook with a silky line, but its the bassline that marks it out, coming in with a thudding bassline that twists itself into all manner of unfiltered goodness at the halfway point. >pain tomorrow< meanwhile prefers to let its skipping percussion do the talking with a bumping chord led groove that would put mcde to shame. the ep is rounded off with a killer remix of the title track from deleusions of grandeurs pattern select, turning in a sparse reworking which transforms the light original into a throbbing piece of basement house.
