mock & toof proudly present the fantastic >farewell to wendo<, the first single from their debut album >tuning echoes< which is scheduled for release in may 2010. for those unaware, mock & toof are two of the uks finest. having built up an enviable reputation via 12 inch releases on james murphys dfa recordings and their own tiny sticks imprint, they specialize in brilliantly off-kilter, disco-fuelled grooves that are laced with originality. enough originality in fact to have caught the attention of hot chip, zero 7, holy ghost! and groove armada who all recently called for their remix services, and thats just the tip of their production iceberg.

almost one year after the first release derive schallplatten releases the second record. thats quite a long time. but however, haste makes waste and even more when its about some passionate drifters!

circus company is proud to celebrate its first collaboration with one of the most emblematic and talented actors of the jena scene. for sure you know robag wruhme for is past work on his own imprint musik krause and on freude-am-tanzen alongside monkey mafia as the wighnomy brothers dj duet. this artist always stand out musically. from his past releases till today and across his remixes you cant miss his unique personality in music. this four tracker provides a colorful musical palette of mr wruhme. from the dark and minimal side of blech beulé to the «herbertish» robadella and the magnificent melodical slow mood of 48° 52&#8242,,,,,,,,,,,, n, 2° 21&#8242,,,,,,,,,,,, (in between, thats the location for paris on the map in case you loose yourself…) while he was delivering the tracks robag also requested a remix from ark, another strong character of the paris. ark did a a brilliant work on this blech beulé remix which gives a nice „avant goût“ of his upcoming album on perlon which will be out in april.

another milestone reached for the cannibal society! already the 30th release and thats word a celebration! alex tb is the main man at the moment, so hes perfect for the job! true hard techno that is what this label stands for. so put your partyhad on get the decoration out and celebrate!

nice price deal !!! brooklyns these are powers are at the frontier of noise rock, and yet call back to the earliest days of industrial before its metal infusion. the trios lyrics and jerky beats let go of every musical inhibition ever invented, creating an atmosphere thats slightly sexual and always uncomfortable.

played and support by brothers vibe, gorge, mendo, acumen, nick curly, felipe venegas, jackspot, ptoile, monoroom, martin eyerer, someone else and many more. his successful releases and remixes were published on labels like kiddaz fm, spinclub, cecille, 8 bit, session deluxe or glückskind. his tracks got remixed by world famous artists like marek hemmann, billy dalessandro, nick curly, chris liebing or tom pooks!! first move is helmuts typical fragile minimal tech-house funk. a sweet lullaby with mantra like vocals thats too minimal to be tech house and far too funky and sexy to be minimal. and helmut is never satisfied with doing things like all the other producer around do it right now - he is always looking for the little things thats different - so expect a surprise or two if you are listening carefully. cut b1 is so typical for helmut again you would know without any doubt where these funky track comes from. reminding of his old classic dub la chord or his yellow tail release this is his typical cleaned up tech house with his own vocal snippets you just cant get enough of.

after two highly acclaimed releases, enclave recordings return with an outstanding debut ep from irish dj/producer conor rogan. cogan delivers an impressive well rounded package which stands head and shoulders above most of the generic house music thats been flooding the scene these days. the title track >78<, is an infectious, hypnotic number with its roots firmly grounded in the golden era of funk and soul. expect mayhem at the disco when the groove kicks in towards the end where the slapped bass, chopped guitar, and flute take the track to another level.
next up is channels where rogan shows his deep techno influences by weaving layers of rhodes chords in and out of the mix. a low slung funky bassline and tight rhythm section, make this a top notch people mover guaranteed to electrify dancefloors from dublin to detroit.
soulville is a stripped down percussion driven house workout, while option completes the journey on a deep, moving tip perfect for early evening or late night selections. all in all, an essential tool for the versatile house dj.

kyle geiger knows his techno. thats what becomes clear when listening to his brand new wrong turn ep. mb elektronics is still going strong!

return to form (take that, haters!) hits at the body repeatedly, slamming away with a lack of abandon and a new sense of protocol. major stars are known for being psychedelic rock journeymen (and journey lovin women), but of late, their rocks psych roots seem to be dyed platinum white, with a truckers cap shoved on top of the whole mess. its jukebox ready hard rock with a hallucinogenic edge, sure ? or perhaps its just the impact of their triple guitar git down, causing your head to throb with concussive force? dont worry, long time star children ? these guys still jam, but they ve got short numbers too, and wailing, roadhouse vocals sailing over the punch ups. a terrific variety, but a return to form? pffft! what form? these guys have been in plasma state forever! whatever form it takes, thats what it is. and major stars are presently shining on in white dwarf style ? compacted, but with a violent gleam.

yore starts the new year off on the good foot with a four-tracker from the dutch duo morning factory thats remarkably accomplished for a first release. expertly manning the controls are two gentlemen from the netherlands, jean-pierre van der leeuw and jozef lemmens, who clearly produce a high-octane electronic body music thats timeless and fresh.

untracked recordings had a killer year in 2009, and if this is any indication things are only going to get better for the vinyl only label in 2010. release eleven at the label is the incredible new all i ever wanted ep from rising star red rack em. the title track is straight beatdown, theo parrish esque stabs and rumbling sub bass underpin a low slung heavyweight, for the true underground connoisseurs. the track, however, thats had everyone freaking out is in love again. serious support from gilles peterson, and endless inquiries as to its release date has ensured this record won’t be around for long. deep warm pads, an emotive vocal and beautiful detroit strings bring this straight to the heart of the matter. 300 copies only on 180 gram vinyl.

a warm welcome for gtmuzike! this spanish label has already 3 releases under their belt which were very hard to get on a normal way so they decided to expand.
and thats not strange if you here this fine techno ep by spains most popular techno artists. fer br, toni alvarez, rantan, dj cristiao & pratap are regulars in the techno roster these days!

lurking in the back of every transportation vehicle there allways is someone who is up to no good... someone who vandalizes other peoples property & wrecks havoc everywhere he goes. their called lowlifes... bullies of the city... scum of the earth! they dont give a shit about anybody else. just thinking where they re at now and how they can raise hell in any possible way. matt-u has stood up and offered his dope ep as a meaning of destruction upon the non believers. the a side deliveres chaos unlike we ever seen before. people pulling and hitting each other, turning themselves into scum of the night... not giving a shit about the rest. flip it over to b1 for heads up - it ll be the last time anything happens unnoticed. keeping the scum people focused and ready for action. take cover keeps everything in check, the announcer warns people of this terrible threat thats gripping itself among the crowds. so run like crazy if you want to be safe. this is not a drill!!

christian loefflers raise ep is one of the most stunning pieces of recorded electronic music - at least thats what glitterbug and the rest of c.sides thought when the demo was first played back in their cologne studio, and they have been in love ever since.

the d arcangelo brothers somehow forgot about the downtempo side of things for this ep on the warm and freaky 030303 imprint. unlike on their releases for rephlex we hear mid and highspeed chicago influenced stuff thats a big treat for fans of gescom, stinkworx and afx (some stuff brings back memories of his helston flora mix of baby fords normal). mind you, theres still a distinctive d arcangelo sound to all of this jackin. what are all those false and sleepy melodies for? to confuse us? what a mindfuck this psychedelic minialbum is!

pavel pokhorovskyy a.k.a. pvl is a young artist from nürnberg, germany. inspired by different subgenres of house and techno music, he decided to try himself in producing his own musical visions, which led to his debut record on samuvar ltd. converting thoughts and feelings into modern electronic music, thats what pvl is all about!

1st part of the ten city best of series!

must have classics!! includes the amazing thats the way love is!

since his last release on circus company (fleurette ccs033), djulz add been quite busy in the sutdio. he did a lot of remixes for slam on soma, matthew dear on get physical, 2000 & one on 100%, arnaud le texier on 20:20 vision and spencer parker on rekids. hes now back with a freshly baked 3 tracker called rotondo. thats also the track title of the a side. rotondo is techy and slightly dark. there you feel a constant pressure that will leeds you to euphoric pad which is just a simple saxophone screaming sample. on the b side we are getting into some naïve and housy feeling with on the road. then ideas are fishes is closing down the record on catchy vocal hook. that king of track to keep the party rolling. once again d julz delivers some great cuts that should be soon on rotondo everywhere

re-release der classic punkrockband the bristles aus schweden. 16 tracks, aufgenommen zwischen 1982-1984.

with five beat pharmacy albums and almost a dozen vinyl releases on francois ks deep space imprint, this dubby and eclectic project of brendon moeller needs no introduction.
chugging along at 120bpm, underpinned by a thick sub-dub bassline and a modulating maurizio-style synth cord arpeggio, pump is a hypnotic slap of deep smoky house with some memorable hooks to boot. swirling rhodes keyboards and a slick piano riff serve as a lovely counterpoint to the swinging funk of the hi-hat groove. forever morphing and evolving, the stready and unrelenting groove are guaranteed to keep heads bobbing and toes tapping!
the first remix here is by echospace head honcho, stephen hitchell under his intrusion guise. stripping away and re-contextualizing the key elements in the track, hitchell crafts a warehouse-style dj-tool that subtlely weaves its way into ones subconscious via a delightful psychedelic keyboard hook.
londons bearweasel takes a similar approach, except with a much more pronounced beat track superbly trippy atmosphere. a top notch dj tool thats likely to be spun worldwide.
all round a quality release with enough sensibility and character to be played for years to come.

londons bass champion and one half of the infamous night slugs team is l vis 1990. a name synonymous with the whole uk funky / post garage and house movement thats proving to be the most exciting thing in electronic music right now. following releases on mad decent and tres cool, l vis is kicking off his new label (conceived with fellow tastemaker bok bok) alongside this weeks new release from mosca (check that), with two tracks that slew genres and blur all boundaries in their wake. originally released only digitally on dj orgasmic and teki latexs sound pellegrino label, compass and zahonda are now finally available on super loud vinyl. this is a limited edition.

rhythmical, distinguished and brazen. thats how the young label push up muzik defines its music, and now presents >artist shit<, a new musical fragrance whose deep base and elegant melodies bring us the freshness and strength from the best tech house. it all will delight the most exclusive tastes. the original song, composed by roll-off (paco heredia and xavi fayos) is the first launch of this label, that includes as well remixes with deep, minimal and techno shades by xavi fayos aka ivax soyaf together with carlos valdes and the producer pablo bolivar, it all mastered by tony blunt.

the yore captain returns to his own yore imprint on the labels 21st release. shadow city presents different visions of funky house grooves. the a sides the y theme gets deeply moving with a funky house pulse before stoking the fire with the addition of speaking voices (trippingly intoning the q&a what are we doing this for? and the music), a move which single-handedly jumpstarts the track. after the voices appear, the grooves intensity escalates and plunges deeper, its gyroscopic house swing becoming more dizzying and torrential with each passing bar before coming to an acidy storming end. in its opening moments, shadow city opts for a deeper and more serenading vibe by comparison, but thats traded in for a slinkier attack at the three-minute mark that grows progressively more ferocious as the track makes its drastic upwards ascent. a trippin dangerous murder weapon to say the least. watch your heads! the b sides b2 track, mumbai dweller keeps the focus primarily on the bottom end, specifically a strutting tribal-house funk groove thats dragged even deeper by a throbbing bass undertow, adding dark chords to it, giving this ep a darker feeling towards the end. to sum it all up: this is raw house music at its best!

klakson off shoot of panoramabar resident dj steffi: dolly records... white label-stamp styling. limited run of 300 copies... crazy.. we know..but thats how the label wants it!

miss fitz, laverne radix, spunky brewster, mara trax, uli künkel….thats all maayan nidam, who already released on various labels like contexterrior, raum…musik or sushitec…(to name only a few). earlier this year, maayan presented her first full lenght album through the japanese label power shovel audio. …..and the music? ….deep!!

ricardos biggie! thats it!

this is textured tasteful music thats designed to stimulate the mind and soothe the soul, incorporating broad strokes of jazzy keys, warm electronics, retro funk, deep house and more into an intoxicating swirl of sounds.

another show stopper from french outfitles umins. its all about the remixes on this dope three tracker, as home and garden kick things off with a tough, synth heavy retro 80s mix thats a totally new sound for these boys. on the flip brett johnson shows why hes the man, killing the floor with a truly bugged out take on the original thats just got prime time madness written all over it. sounds like a bit of plastikmans spastik in there! icon on point with an essential underground release.

redux continue to pile on the pressure with a stellar line up of releases ready to drop through 2009 and beyond next up we have new yorks drrtyhaze, who ve dipped in and out of the discopolis with a handful of deadly cuts and remixes over the last couple of years. here they revisit the heady days of early house a la trax records, and update the sound into an altogether crispier form on the monstrous new york city jacks the mysterious ppf crew turn in a super heavy weight remix inspired in no small part by the raw energy of ron hardys musicbox sets a full bells and whistles workout thats already causing a stir from early promo mailouts finally make my body hot wraps up the ep with a brass punctuated slab of girth some balearia.

full artwork sleeves. electronic / dubstep label kinnego records started by boxcutter out of northern ireland is back! after the success of the first release (by boxcutter himself) he introduces the masses to a producer named space dimension controller... the techno funk alias of 19 year old jack hamill. following on perfectly from boxcutter and kinnego fluxs a familiar sound on kgo001, it features 2 tracks of deep, loved up electro. equally inspired by both the tape warped soundtrack to garth merenghis darkplace and early aphex twin, jacks all analogue production gives his tracks a timeless sound thats a mile away from contemporary electro and house. the beats are low slung and funky, and the melodies are addictive and show a natural flair. on the love quadrant, a girl / boy vocal exchange sets the scene while the track builds momentum, before the whole thing spaces off on a sweet minimoog solo. on the flip, electropod 250 collision has a deep 808 pulse and flanged bass, topped off with detroit inspired melodies and blurred out reverbs.

timeless dancefloor fire gets a timely seasonal release on this exclusive double 12 inch pack. its the first compilation of artists from the desolat family - and its a manifesto of sorts, showcasing the different facets of the desolat sound. these artists, in their own ways, unpack multiple meanings of house & techno to create unique tangents. munichs tini steps out with her debut release: a staggered, raw dance track representative of her electrifying, wired-up dj sets. its the first solo outing on desolat for studio guru martin buttrich: his sensitive manipulation of delicate sonic quicksand underpinned with an insistent beat. argentine muso guti drops his second release on desolat, contributing chipped down spatial melodies following his first 2x12inch on the label, las cosas que no se tocan. loco dice brings his hip hop roots via heavyweight bassline and disembodied groove to truly shake up the house and overturn expectations. shimmering swing is the thing for romanian duo livio & roby featuring george g as premiesku, enunciating their very own definition of dance. lastly, desolats african-italian man yaya develops his sound further - displaying his musical upbringing with a punchy effusive get-up-and-dance vibe. its a fine way to end the year - six glimmering tracks wrapped up on desolats very special 10th release!

new remixes ep for dops 2nd single on eklo, means great artists in the game.thats why we are really proud find of this one this 2 genius of the modern scene, bodycode aka portable andkalabrese.
on the a side, the bodycode remix of vsop is a superb deep floorish track, combine in the same time the energyin the detroit synth hooks and those phase beats which reminds the bodycodes unique grooves, and in the otherside, the deepness of this pads and vocals that we recognize on his last portable productions. a perfect combination from this double personnality artist, who bring here a sexy and deep mindtrip on eklo.

fresh outa detroit comes the first release on beretta music sub label beretta red. a four track compilation featuring respected artists arthur oskan, third ear and kanzleramts dennis desantis, and label head honcho brian kage. bear trax ep vol 1 is a collection of luscious detroit inspired techno jams aimed firmly at the dancefloor. strictly limited to 200 copies, and if thats not enough comes on appropriately enough tasty red vinyl. it also comes with a code to download all tracks free in digital format... which we presume must be for the girlfriends ipod.

support from the worlds finest djs and artists such as pier bucci, argenis brito, butane, maetrik, gregory shiff, ambivalent, and id, barem, and noah pred.
this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

make it funky for me the big track on the funky house circuit thats been bubbling under for the last few months, is finally getting its release on shy fxs label digital soundboy.

andrea oliva strikes back on be as one this time with an ep on his own and two tracks of bumping ass shaking house music. >arosa< and >off the moment< promise to keep legs moving on the floor with their uplifting vibe and sexy jazzy grooves. another valuable release from a label that needs no introduction and an artist, andrea oliva, thats steadily confirming his artistic reputation as someone to keep an eye on.

lets have fun! - thats the mantra of big zis and the crew of nation music. the swiss black music label has been broadening its musical spectrum over the past years. just like the artist big zis, whose music could most likely be labeled electro pop alternative punk rap, they dont care about common conventions.while rap becomes more and more pimped out, house loopier and minimal narrow-minded, big zis hooks up with a top-class troupe to get it her own way.for her most recent album und jetz … (and now …) she worked with marton di katz and valentino tomasi (both members of kalabreses famous rumpelorchester), who laid the musical foundations for most of the songs. for the impulsive electro on the track suure räge (acid rain) however, big zis collaborated with the techno producer michal ho (tuningspork) at the studio. suure räge got remixed by several well-known producers: robag wruhme (freude am tanzen) and canson (gs zürich) are to be found on volume 1 and the soul brothers lexx (aka kawabata / drumpoet) and kalabrese (stattmusik) successfully combat boredom on volume 2. the sound scapes of the remixes couldnt be any more diverse and cover a broad variety of styles. and be sure: volume 3 - work in progress - will delight you as well!

the phenomenal handclap band, are a many-membered ensemble which also features musicians from tv on the radio, jon spencer blues explosion and amy winehouses backing band the dap kings, all of whom contribute their individual talents to make for a very exciting whole. their sound is an anthemic, dancefloor-oriented blend of progressive rock, disco, electro, and 60s soul with sprinklings of hip hop-styled orchestral breakbeats and moody, synth-soaked & heavy hooks. using live instrumentation to evoke the intricate arrangements of norman whitfield, quincy jones and phil spector as well as the pared down beats of contemporaries like the neptunes and danger mouse.
a prime example of this melting pot of styles, this single >15 to 20< , combines >vintage sounds of blondie and esg with some css and james murphy thrown in< (zane lowe, bbc 1) to make for an instantly catchy disco pop concoction thats times-tabling chorus will be as popular in the playground as on the hottest dancefloors. >15 to 20< enjoyed spot plays from the likes of radcliffe & maconie, john kennedy and zane lowe, who made it his >hottest record in the world< and went on to describe it as his >breakthrough record of the year so far.< press-wise it has featured in the nmes 10 tracks you have to hear & in the guardians film & music playlist.
live they are a core band of 8 all of whom participated on the album, being daniel collas (organ / vox), sean marquand (keys/effects), quinn luke (guitar / vox), luke o malley (guitar / vox), nick movshon (bass), patrick wood (drums / vox) amanda tomme (lead vox), laura marin (lead vox) with special guests from the album popping in all of the time. dont be surprised to find a 15 piece psychedelic, disco-matic, get down, groovy, hippy cult, rock spectacle-supergroup that really is not to be missed!

nice price deal !!! the fourth rwina sees the light of yet another taz buckfaster 12inch thats going down in a true epic vein, one for the anthem horny jocks. so if you are into the grimy synth heavy side of things then better check this one out.

thats what you all have been waiting 4!
