debut 12inch of this detroit dream co-op between theo parrish, omar s and marcelus pittman. rawer and harder than the last sound signature releases, this is a one-sided must-have 12inch, limited repress

avocado # 1 was the secrect weapon in dc 10 last summer! big with: ame, matthias tanzmann, tanja volcano, steve bug,…!! #2 comes even stronger ! a: peter pan: following up from the immense track >elephant<, >peter pan< does not betray rune and sydenhams tough deep tech sensibilities. grinding along, this track blurs the boundaries between tech- house and techno. b: snow bored: >snow bored< is a deep and sophisticated piece of tech effervescence clearly demonstrating the serious approach sydenham and rune take in their search of new techno pastures.

sometimes, its still worth not to waste your youth with nonsense but to learn to play an instrument. like in the case of sebastian mullaert, who has learned to play violin, organ and piano, while his partner marcus henriksson rather came from kraftwerk and human league to electronic music. as son kite, the two swedes have already a well-known name in the psy-trance scene, and as minilogue, they now start to conquer the minimal and house world. with their rather unique sound, they manage the tightrope walk between minimal and trance and never allow us to put them into a drawer. especially with their debut on cocoon rec, minilogue present themselves in a different way, compared to their releases on traum or wagon repair. >jamaica< is a calm track at the first hearing and is perfect for building up a set. beginning with bird-like sounds, the track builds up slowly and quickly becomes very interesting and tricky, ramifies as organic as a climbing plant, and when the tribal sound emerges from the underground, this track has exactly what makes minilogue so special: organic matter and groovy sounds, worked into a minimal labyrinth with very much love for the details. all of that can also be found on the b side which seems to be more adequate for the morning hours, with its somehow spacey sound. with >jamaica<, mullaert and henriksson prove that they are floating on the very surface of the endless minimal ocean. and with their album >animals< being already in sight on cocoon recordings, one can be highly anxious of what is coming ahead, by minilogue and techno made in sweden

with this release the spring buds sprout on upon you. lee jones, member of mymy and daniel dreier have delivered two great early blossoms which- like we have expected, holds no house-spuds under the ground. inspired by the facet richness of the sounds in >a man< on a1, marco resmann went on to plant his special note of funkyness on b1

huge new 12inch from the master himself! >dont panic – its automatic< – a title that is in many ways descriptive for a track that fires the creative starting shot for anthony rother in 2008. recently having been not more than consistent, rother heralded a stylistic reorientation of his music, however, with last years programmatic >moderntronic< ep. on the a-side, >dont panic<, with the vocoder voices that have come back after a long time now, stays closely associated with the sound and the aesthetic of datapunk - a unique vision of a futuristic abstraction between techno, disco and electro. the dataclash mix on the b-side then formulates the stylistic new beginning with a consistency that leaves the listener speechless. rarely before on datapunk has homage been paid to the imperative of energy so rigorously. going against the grain with extremely surprising noise effects, the dataclash mix is tailor-made even for reductionist dj sets in its psychoactive darkness. a thrilling foretaste of the third rother album on datapunk, announced for the coming year

played by: adam beyer, magda, loco dice, tadeo, 2000 and one, miss kittin, laurent garnier, joel mull, xpansul, matt star… groovie, dancefloor friendly and fresh is how the latest martinez reference opens. it comes through cray1labworks, again breaking frontiers, the spanish label counts on the danish genius martínez, banner of re:connected, at the summit of current minimal. >you< is an orgy of sound layers, frequencies and blurred voices. >stavanger< moves faster, with a vibrant percussion, overlapping and ever-changing. dark minimal tech, remarkably complex & absolutely catchy. perfect for even the most demanding clubs. >burning the midnight oil< opens with a rebellious force. drums flying and bodies moving, the perfect mix between ritual & techno percussion. suddenly it transforms into house: thick pads moving down your spine. and you are surrounded. inside martinez latest hit

the rebirth of finalfrontier has brought some new friends within the production circle. carola pisaturo is a long time friend from naples, she has been djing around since 1997. her sound is warm and funky but still very technoish. >passione extra< is a perfect example of her skills. to celebrate this first collaboration with the neapolitan artist, marco passarani steps in with a re-work of the track under the moniker >bass-a-rani<, adding his characteristic synchopated techno beats to the original version.

television rocks is proud to announce that no one less than acidkids aka daniel dexter and markus lange have joinded the family. and they come up with solid rock/disco tunes for all you wild boys under the huge disco ball out there !!

supported by 2000 and one, anja schneider, jesse rose, loco dice, shlomi aber, trickski, tobi neumann, to name a few.. once again theres a real nod to the old school here in a track inspired by arthur russell. rich, warm analogue pads and subtle fx flashes from the space echo build an enchanting groove. the intensity gradually develops with sounds slowly evolving, lending a deep hypnotic feeling to proceedings, until the chord progression opens out and you cant help but smile. a genuine end of night anthem and when dixon does his own edit you know your onto something special... version: double for your money, with an extra version of the original that doesnt open out into the full stabs and maintains a deeper groove. martin landsky remix: with a tight, tribal tom pattern and straight ahead groove martin landsky achieves a darker more spaced out feeling with his remix. he pushes the pads to a dubbed out climax without fully opening out the progression and this fully hits the spot. martin landsky has been making waves as a dj and producer since the mid-nineties and is one of the key producers at steve bugs excellent poker flat recordings and running his own intim records.. hes compiled many mix cds for labels such as poker flat, systematic and the partysan compilation series. his debut album was >in between< for pokerflat and since then hes remixed the great & good as well as producing several stunning releases and jetting about with his box of records

minimal detroit techno. the cryovac machine intends to find common ground between alternate views of the minimal style. this composit will reflect the attitude and ingenuity of detroits resident noise makers. team cryovac begins with michelle hermann (hej/ punisher)dark and aloof, minimal 4/4 techo lead by a crisp snare and followed by an arrangement of restless bass, beeping subliminal vocals and shifting kikcs+tics. andy garcia(docile) offers a clamoring,4/4 floor cut that beings with a waiver, is at points over come by the nod and incessantly beeps+rattles on after a surly funk!

that gel abril is destined to be one of the main producer of 2008 is already clear to a lot of djs and producers worldwide. be as one, ovum, renaissance all these great labels have already put their hands on this tel aviv based guy, and the remix package of his new single >your face is a mess< including three of the most interesting artists of the past year, is just a confirmation of gels destiny to climb up high. deetrons not a stranger to the electronic music world. hes been constantly in the spotlights of the scene for many years, and now once again he proves why. his 10 minutes marathon remix on the a side really stands out for its superb programming throughout the entire track. starting building things up slowly it relentlessly delivers the goods with one of his best work to date. on the b side, its the hottest uk techno producer mark broom who joins the be as one crew bringing all his experience to serve the cause. another winner! closing the package, itamar sagi, one of baos new artists, delivers a very interesting and original >jazz meets detroit< mix and gives the package the right balance between the techno genres. a storming rework from a fresh talented producer that cannot help but keep the eyes of >those in the know< down on him!

every friday hugg & pepp sits down to have their mid day break after having a sturdy lunch at the partymakers. pepp is usually not late to suggest that something sweet should be consumed during this time in order to get inspiration and joy. hugg, who is also known for his sense of culinary experiences sometimes surprises pepp with exciting creations from all corners of the world. this particular friday, the team has choosen the mormors hosta, a typical swedish bread in wich a special yellow fudge, the hosta, can be found in the middle of this delicious bakery dedicated to our beloved grandmother. pepp, who is specially found of the hosta, also suggested that the two would make a tribute to grandfather so they wrapped the mormorshosta in a farfarskofta into a roll, then split it in half and feasted on this magnificent little piece in a cheerful mood. after this, filled up and satisfied they returned to their mystery machine and started to feed it with this new recepie. at first the machine returned some strange messages but after correcting the proportions between the amount of hosta and bread the machine successfully coughed up a banging bassline.

a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. we re gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut : ) just the way we like it... second release up is a taste of what s to come later in 2008 when we drop windsurfs debut album. these 4 tracks where initially planned for release on sentrall but where for some strange reason scrapped and made available as mp3 only. too sad as this is some of the finest heady downbeat electronic music to appear in the current baleric,cosmic blah blah blah call it what you want scene. windsurf consists of 1 part sorcerer and 1 part hatchback, both has records out on tirk and thisisnotanexit respectively and they ve also managed to deliever killer reworks of lcd soundsystem and shawn lee s ping pong orchestra(to be unleashed early 2008). crafting their own musical universeout of layers and layers of guitars and synths, never going for the obvious... well, im not gonna spend more time trying to convince you, check it out at wordandsound.de(paste in appropriate link here f.ex....)

g dub get back to their own label under the double zero guise with the absolutely huuuuuge forum fannies a cunning mix of digital bleeps, rolling breakbeats and distorted bass. one that will get the messageboards flashing and no mistake!

fenou - the sublabel of mos ferry prod. for more experimental tracks between minimal and electronica leaves the path of releasing only minicompilations with fenou05. kadebostans >grand theatre e.p.< is an homage to fantastic voices from a distant place, as it seems. with his first ep on freude am tanzen he already showed that his music is a melange of longingly melodies, melancholic vocals and minimal instrumented electronics

as we found this fabolous track from bruce lenkei, we couldnt believe that this was not an original from the cosmic era, instead it is a new production. this track immediately came on to us very strong with its magic sounds and the great atmosphere, which describes the title best. after we included the moonlightzombiedance into our mix for the d.i.r.t.y soundsystem from paris, we got crazy feedback from around the globe and so we decided to put it on wax. on the remix duties we have the hot talented michoacan, who earned himself a very good reputation with 12inches on labels like bear enterainment, grayhound recordings, tiny sticks and lektroluv under his belt. most recently he also got remixed by the almighty dj harvey and the glimmers. he speeded the tempo of the original way up and transformes it into a crazy krautrock stepper in the vain of goblin. it makes the people dance like zombies on speed - we experienced :). if you dig the zombiezombie stuff you will love this one.

back in march 07, drag city issued rtxs second ball busting album, under a title that we all really loved and you did too. but the man! the man came down on them, telling drag city that in a court of law the album with that title would be struck down and that they must cease and rethink. thusly armed, drag city went to rtx and told them that a rebirth was at hand. fortunately, they were up for the change - and ratx is the inevitable result! containing the exact same contents as its former self, ratx has the additional benefit of being released in a super limited vinyl edition.

bumble & romz made this track specially for the new label anngel rec and its a beautiful release between minimal & tech-house style! incl. an excellent remix by monoroom (session deluxe, live large) supported by markus lange, dejonka & phunklarique (aka piemont) ,gino s & snake !!!

first ep from the new dead sexy incs album. a real clash between new yorks underground punk garage scene, and berlins electro world. come in 3 remixes from shane copugh, s(20)&pt, and dark dancer, alongside the original version.

with there trademark gold-colored vinyl pressings and forward thinking sound - the dinner label created a serious buzz amongst many serious players! the talented anton pieete finally receives the credits he deserves and many of his productions (and co-productions with for example bart skils) are charted by top jocks like adam bayer, 2000 and one and shinedoe! museum is a collab between radial man jeoen liebregts and anton. the boys spit super clean, hefty material and fuse dark offbeat with stripped down grooves. this is another showcase of topnotch productional craftsmanship! they do deserve there own money!

the ron hardy tribute juggernaut rolls on with two more flashes of enlightenment. a slice of salsoul scorcher is paired with the cooler vibe from chris & cosey. >i remember ron hardy dropping nitzer ebb (hard industrial band) in between records by marshall jefferson and adonis.< says scott k. (more club, los angeles >in urb magazine theres an article on felix da housecat where he mentions frankie knuckles dropping cuts from bands like new order. he then credits (rightfully so) ron hardy for starting that.< >ron was more adventurous that frankie knuckles. frankie would play straight disco but ron would play all kinds of stuff. hed play eurythmics, he play man parrish, hed play shannon, right along with the disco. and man, he just stole all of frankie knuckles crowd.< - marshall jefferson deep underground chicago staple of music played by the chose few to the ones who truly know how deep it is. now its time for the masses to feel the real deepness of the true chicago 80s era of music. only ten percent of what happened here in the 80s, is known to the rest of the world. dont you want to be a member?

>life is the only drug i wont ever give up<. this is probably the most life-affirming claim ever forwarded by ware- labelboss matthias schaffhäuser and its made to fit the party. and as hes being the guest on a very special label hes going all the way. totally in accordance with the wir-label-philosophy, the title track shows off lots of modern producing skills, never sticking to just one rigid idea but coming along with a whole bunch of attitudes. pop-induced vocals are artfully woven into minimal beats, housy strokes meet sound concrète, and the whole combines to one neverending track, leaving the elitist style ghetto behind and delivering itself to the pulsating life outside, leading to a truly beautiful work clearly thats one hell of a challenge for every remixer, but lovable atom smahing mathias kaden is the right man at the right place, as he knows how to deal with emotional content under the influence of the contemporary raw. his eleven-minute-opus tightens, focalizes, piles and moves around the original material, but without betraying its spirit. this remix seems larger than life but still maddingly gripping and you get the overwhelming impression that here every angle leads to another, every bit communicating. its a nation under the groove, all in one track, and its here to be heard

felix dickinson and toby tobias team up to great effect under the name of the mythical beasts on the newie from hector works. low slung funk bass and disco claps and synths make the original a sleazy discoid workout par excellence and as if that wasnt enough both q burns abstract message and nick chacona & anthony mansfield are on the mixes too. q burns mix is nothing to write home about in truth but chacona and chum do good things on their take, upping the tempo and aiming it squarely at the floor. hot!

nice price deal !!! techno, minimal and techhouse under one label! dj support: dj angelo, torres, mauricio vittielo, uto karem, ogi gee cash, darko veble, synchronized, nince leece, ewox, dj sun e,electrik buddiez, sthlm soundmachine, devilfish!

random trio delivers the goods once again with his trademark minimalist style. >claret< hits a fine balance between dirt and depth that evolves throughout the track and envelops the mind. my pick >fools day< sees the veteran experiment with some >dubbyer< influences, while still retaining the trademark random trio sound

what can i do for you? its been a busy year for yapacc. released a handful of quality releases on wir, the green empire and lessizmore, remixed dole & kom, german pop-duo 2raumwohnung, co-produced three releases with good groove, the studio wizard is also working currently on his very first solo debut - coming out in march 2008 on neutonmusic. with >n!ce< yapacc returns to neutonmusic on where he has collaborated with fadila demirtas. ex-repeat repeat member, mark rutherford, shows his first solo work under his object object moniker. and proves easily why andrew weatherall calls himself a fan: this is dark, somehow trippy, much weirder (and faster) version of the original - which reminds us of submarine raves from back in the late 1950s... played by sven väth

after several successful releases on labels like traum schallplatten, liebe detail, opossum, dimmer, curle rec. etc...he finally releases 3 fascinating and pulsating as well as hypnotic minimal techhouse tracks on killa beat. he is also known for productions under his aliases c.i.t. or schatz & wikinger. this ep shows his sight of minimal techno, either with percussive drumsounds or moody melodies and is a must have for your box.

remixes by inflagranti, the glass & thugfucker!! vampy, a fucked-up anthem for venitians after-parties, in between an electroclash splendour and a z-movie dancefloor. >antipop took control of the subversive asia argentos hidden shadow in his psycho electronic spider web. < (blast, june 2007) thugfucker (desire mix) makes it beautifully dark and acid. the glass (white money mix) goes on like ireland was in love on a new years day. inflagranti (no jeans mix) dances the night away like billy without a jean

film score to french film la naissance des pieuvres. great blend between para ones signature sound and a more electronica/ambiant aproach... already highly acclaimed by french press, both musical and from film industry. this is a very limited pressing on vinyl (500pcs)

bomb warning!! well now, the original track should need no introduction here as it was one or eric prydzs biggest productions under the cirez d moniker which originally came out on joia recordings. here we have 2 devastating remixes from possibly two of the biggest producers around at the moment. on the a side deadmau5 really takes the track to a new level utilising the main two original elements of the ravey synth and vocal refrain and created a nuclear bomb by adding his own synth sounds and huge drops.!

stefan mallmann (wirlpoolsex music, definition music), vodovoz (cheese records, peppermint jam), neurotron (deep records, eevonext, 2600 records) and monogen (cologne) made a fine grooving 4 track ep. bombastic rhythms and energy-loaded waves of deep chords and soft melodies. finest grooving techhouse, minimalhouse and dubhouse with detroit like feelings. already in playlists of world best djs and producers. the dancefloor always stays in the foreground because there is the point of the highest energy field which can be produced between two loudspeakers. this is what night drive music is aiming at and they fully succeed in it. already in playlists of world best djs and producers
