the reasons of the space probes blackout are still unknown. sharp and synchronised movements revealed mysterious devices and something started to pulse in the cloudy air, followed by upbeat sonic layers. i thought i was listening to a new, indecipherable, form of language. at the same time, without any friction, the nature of the emission changed again into a sort of weaving of sonic textures twisting all around me, fast and shifty. the only evidence of the facts i just reported is what i leave for you to listen to.

arjun vagale and tim richards have never met in person, they are cyber friends like a million of other people in the world. their huge musically respect for each other formed the idea to do some music together and kaiserdisco is very proud to present you the result! with a first listen you can say she said is a typical tech-house tune but when you play it again and again you see it is full of little highlights which makes the song so special and catchy. its a very cool combination of beats, drums and top loops which makes this track so energetic. the remarkable break makes the track so unique and turns the club into an inferno. the second track tonkatsu is a real techno-bomb. a very deep bassline combined with the galloping beats keep this track running and running until it falls intothe break wich makes this track even more ecstatic and brings it up to an amazing primtime-stomper, that lets the crowd go crazy and scream but all in a very cool and undergroundy way.this tune is really outstanding and one of the best tracks in our box for weeks.

following up the well received >relapse ep< on machining dreams, dj/producer steven tang presents >mmmmmusic< under his obsolete music technology moniker. the 4-track, 12 inch vinyl single focuses in on melody, which has become the signature sound and of his label, emphasis. upon first listen of the main title track, you will hear a driving tr-808 drum intro, then lush, emotive pads and strings comes in over the top to give the listener that emotional hook. setting off the track is the funky synth bass voice sounding , >mmmmmusic!< backing the title track is the stripped down >reprise version< and >chicago skyways pay toll mix<, where the synth bass voice is extracted and cut up into skyways frenetic drum programming style reminiscent of steve poindexters >work that motherfucker<. also includes the track, >distance.<

seven tracks on the new lowriders release and its a real joy to listen to! the ep opens with the cheerful title track with the likes of kissey on vocals and it is amazingly sticky and feels like a compendium of 30 years of electronic music, with seemingly effortless transitions between detroit house, booty bass and future music.baby treats you on a twostep/house bumper which will kill you. bek is like your 808 swingbeat ghetto track: redundancy to the bone covered with bubbles and some essential vocoder science. sduk makes baby into a dancefloor stomper, whereas starkeys interpretation of field (which appeared on our beatitude compiler) adds and enhances drama and suspense from the original.and then there is the magical krampfhaft remix of tic tac toe, a worthy last track, schizofrenic, driven and recognizable as a mutated juke screamer.

the opening hits of the percussion stay smooth and relaxed, and the instruments come in one-by-one – first the synth, then the strings, then the brass – to create an experience thats both engaging and relaxing. this is the sort of music i would listen to if i cruised the streets of san francisco in the evenings. as >back to the bay< wraps up and pulls us into his remix of >screw up<, we get a dose of subscapes intensity, but its quickly pulled back into matty gs signature low-bass, hip-hop/dubstep fusion beats. >jam like a tek< adds in some vocal hooks to get the crowd chanting – and you are missing out if you dont add this into your mix. deep kick drums, a snappy snare, big distortion on the scratchy bass wobbles, and the vocals all come together perfectly to create a track thatll get people grinding like mad on the dancefloor.

super strong 2 tracker, perfect dj stuff ! just listen

second installment for par wax. this time the series continues with label manager george paar delivering two original tracks destined for the underground techno arena. molecula 5312 is a track in itself the source for this record. the number sequence used in the title of this track represent s the combination a cyclist uses to obtain a hard cadence. thus this track delivers a cadence that is continuous and solid just like two pistons delivering force evenly. damien schneider s remix is a track that has an intricate groove that will make an instant bond with the listener and destroy any intelligent dance floor to pieces. espectroscopia the second original track in this record flirts with the astros, the unknown space that is above us. lastly m_patcher s edit is a unique piece of music directed to the experimental minimal and somewhat the unexpected. truly a track that flirts with strokes of sonic waves. the rest is for you to listen and judge with your own ears. preview. including remix by damien scheneider + edit by m_patcher.

numbernin6 is no new comer to the dubstep scene, but this is his first record for london label smokin sessions. the recordings are blissful and floaty, as you would expect from smokin sessions and really shows off what numnernin6 can do when he goes deep. the whole ep is masterfully produced and you can really hear these tracks have been given a lot of attention. i cant pick a favourite, but all 3 are a great listen. sit back, relax and spark it up rude eye!

obsession is really the programmatic title of tobias olivers work of the last years. two years after his digital winter / summer release in 2009 and the human technology debut with his electro band datawelt, it is really a obsession of him, to bring out his first solo release on vinyl. if you listen to this record, you will be sure, that tobias oliver was born in a electro disco somewhere in this world. the analogy to the old school electro sound can not be ignored, when he reuses the drum and percussion sounds of well known drum machines of the past, combined with bass and synthlines, pads and strings of analog synthesizers from the past and the future - at the latest by then - you will think, that you are really out of space!

nice detroit 4 track ep!! but attention: first track, save the bluebird: sounds are very raw and noise with clicks and clacks ... just listen, snippets are directly from vinyl

fauxpas musiks anniversary is coming up! the fresh and small label with its origin in hamburg got started on the vinyl market in december 2009.it now presents the 8th release with the catalogue number 007.its a three track ep produced by phidias. he created three brilliant tracks as a tribute to convextion aka gerard hanson.at the berghain you can still listen to his debut title cygnus astratus by the label freund der familie. as always this ep comes in coloured vinyl, but this time also with a special silkscreen artprint by hinterhoflinks. vinyl tastes better..

nhars 2nd release on 200 records motionless / betrayer is poison. if you listen to it you will die – immediately.

thomas hesslers ep is the first player through crepuscular shafts & sonic subways.. beware the trail. first track - lost - cements you into a vacuum of suffocating synths that precede a poundin kick.. you are propelled into a tunnel. the bridge of the track is a course in restraint, giving way to menacing drive & looping side sticks.. siren like washes takes hold, swirling & disorientating the listener. on the flip, - 12 channel madness - best conveys the tone and atmosphere of the release. the murky darkness & pace feels inhuman to the core, but not without infectious rhythm breakdowns with flavors of old & nu skool shuffle timbres. these tracks are also - tools - that do not sacrifice on complexity. the haunting synth washes carry us through but offer no comfort. insanity & intensity reaches catharsis but never overpowers the overall mix. - berlin movement - is the final track on the ep that affirms you are still inside the tunnel. the incisive hook lines impel you to find your way out. the kick is more subdued forcing you to go with the melody until the break & bridge lapses back & the restraint builds to hypnotic frenzy. a dry, howling wind prevails.. filtered and distorted. thomas hessler succeeds in taking us through his tunnel of contradictions: alluring, menacing, emotional yet coldly detached. listen up: you might not escape !

having finished recording the new zombie zombie album (out: april 2012), etienne jaumet leaves temporarily the duo to record a solo piece, as a need to find oneself again … if the word satori means spiritual awakening, the title track that offers etienne seems to describe the way to this awakening … a winding and sometimes dark path, taking inspiration from both dark disco and synth wave (etienne is particularly keen of those genres, you can listen to his new podcast for versatile records as an evidence) and also to some kind of trance… on b side, jon convex, newcomer on the dubstep / uk garage field and signed on martyns label, delivers a clearly club oriented version, by injecting syncopated beat and the funky groove unique to uk garage.

if you have ever heard a crunching roland system 100 bass line ringing in your ears at 5.00am in the morning, there is a good chance that it has been written by andy meecham. whether as emperor machine, sir drew, chicken lips or even bizarre inc his music rolls and waves in incredible ways and sheds light on all the probable combinations of familiar sounds. morning banger is certainly a hot potato! upon the first listen you are hooked in with the slightly aggressive korg delta drawing you in. the track builds and builds into a crescendo of beautiful tension and before you know it your brain is eagerly awaiting the next step of the journey.

on this vinyl co-founder of net-label chevengur melody sol collected the best works of talented residents of the label living in far away cities and towns of eastern part of europe. you wont ever get such a compilation from famous labels or producers. here you can listen to underground sound of telegraph (promising minsk duo), groovy tunes of east soul person (disco birds) and experimental-dance music of uncle deep (ethereal sound, appetit, denkbar). a record for the dance-floor and a pleasant home listening.

carefully caressing your back whilst whispering sweet nothings into your ear, pillowtalk join the life and death family with their modern dance soul hybrid, >the come back ep<. despite the name, its actually a debut ep -- and one that quickly establishes pillowtalks unique sound as an important voice in the new generation of contemporary dance music. already getting serious play (and props) from a wide range of djs, from the deep & soulful wolf + lamb and soul clap crews all the way to the banging bass centric justin martin, >the come back< finds life and death once again crossing the conventional genre descriptions with a true dancefloor bomb that everyone can get behind. imagine motown and classic doo-wop blended with a modern dance sensibility and you may start to get an idea of the pillowtalk sound. but its better to stop imagining and just have a listen because what these guys are doing is so genuinely unique, its not an easy one to pigeonhole with words and genre titles alone. the ep includes >the come back<, >soft< and >long lost friends< as well as a life and death remix of >soft<. put together in the life and death laboratories it brings a darker, deeper take on this beautiful and already incredibly sentimental dancefloor serenade.

the second part of the ki split series is a feature of our homegrown talents christian loeffler and steffen kirchhoff. the two friends are part of the ki family since the beginning (loeffler was responsible for the first release on ki and kirchhoff for the third). both artist have a close connection in sound aesthetics and atmosphere, since they still inspire each other every day. on the ki split series 2 you can listen to christian loeffler and steffen kirchhoff experimenting with beautiful samples and underlining the whole piece with their unique sound structure. both in their respective very own romantic approach to deep, melancholic techno music.

recorded in the immediate aftermath of his last ep >passed me by<, this new doublepack from andy stott features six new productions that are more desolate and exposed than anything on its predecessor. the opening >submission< tumbles into being with layers of washed-out digital revolutions, creating an artificial landscape thats quite at odds with the analogue machinations that follow - yet somehow rendering the alienated feel of this material perfectly. >posers< nudges its way into being abruptly and embeds another squashed funk variant thas all low-lit neon and growling textures, awkwardly shuffling into a more robust 4/4 template suffused with sparkling percussion and disembodied vocals. >bad wires< is the centrepiece of the ep, a relentless percussive cluster*ck that belies its slow tempo with a fearless rhythmic attitude. its as immersive and narcotic as anything ever produced by stott - peeling away one layer after another with each repeated listen. >we stay together< (part one) was the first track written for the ep and offers a more spacious narrative and a more sparkling, hazy palette - culminating in a beautifully frayed central hook thats somehow in keeping with the vhs aesthetic of both jamal moss and ferris bueller. >cherry eye< tumbles deep into a darkened hole before ep closer >cracked< turns up, fuelled by an odd mixture of adrenalin and sorrow to send you on your way.... buzzing and forlorn

we are very happy to deliver this excellent kuniyuki remix of mr raoul k. >africa< was kunis best favorite track on the album >introducing my world<. kuni said this remix was inspired by mule 7 years party at robert johnson,frankfurt. this remix is more club friendly, modern deep house sound but you can still listen his organic and musical elements. dont miss this excellent remix!

cool new ratio? with a surprise doc martin remix...!
about one year ago melon met two old friends from amsterdam lying on the streets of berlin who gave him an old fashion tape. out of respect of his (now homeless junkies) friends he borrowed an old tape deck and gave it a listen. he really liked the track but unfortunately he never found his friends again when he went out looking for them. after playing it for months and getting massive feedback the decision has been made to put it out and complimented with two fantastic remixes by california house legend doc martin & newcomer tom ruijg from amsterdam, its now available for everybody. p.s. guys i owe you a fix!

the second mercury ep - and we dont need to introduce the guys anymore for sure. from brodinski, dj mehdi, a-trak to cosmo vitelli, ajello and matt walsh - the last mercury release and their remixes for made to play, kitsune, tom trago have been played by djs from all kinds of scenes. it seems the guys found the perfect formula for mixing soul, house and contemporary electronica in a way that works perfect on 99% of the dancefloors of today. and still: this is not cheap music at all. mercurys complex production and clever songwriting guarantee that you want to listen to this music again and again. now the guys strike back with an ep where its hard to choose the main track. play these tunes.. peaktime or warm up... people will scream and shout. especially - as always with gomma records - the girls will love it... hehe.

the topic of >salome< fits the two producers kadebostan and laolu from switzerland perfectly. just listen to their prior releases on freude am tanzen, fenou or clap your hands. the melodies sway back and forth - dreamy and full of peace. the rhythm group plays along and only the most necessary things. and even though the vocal phrases retain their own character, they blend into this musical structure as if they were made for these tracks. the a and the b face show a masterly crafted arrangement. it would be a mistake not to listen to the whole, as one would miss the feeling to let yourself go. as usual, the lovingly designed 10inch record is a limited edition and numbered by hand

so we went predominanlty stateside for our last outing, and decided to bring things back home this time. hoya003 is a strictly uk affair. opening up on the a-side is one of rudest producers and djs the uk has going for it. this aint a comment on her manners though, they are as impeccable as her production. after ikonika sent us a zip of some hoya potentials, we just knew >fleas< had to be the one featured on this 12 inch. a more sinister, rolling, emotional jam, it still packs as much as punch as ikonikas dj sets. kicking off the b-side is the homie om unit. now, this guy … this guy. are there any superlatives left to desribe his sonic masterpieces that have rocked too many dancefloors and had as many producers scratching their heads and re-assessing their mix-downs? an instant favourite, >fibonnaci 10< was one of the earliest cuts lined up for a release and when you listen you will see why. this guy. seriously. bringing things to a close, we hand over to one of our favourites from the flourishing cardiff scene. why doesnt monky have more music out? is one of those questions that has been asked too many times for our liking. so much so, we may have to take it upon ourselves to change that. but, for now, just enjoy >hipster<. a killer synth-laden nod to early ukg, but looking forward as opposed to sideways. enjoy.

this 12 inch with remixes from popnoname, korablove, gorje hewek and khz is a tribute to moscows synth pop and new wave shooting star pompeya. the bands music sounds so fresh and well produced that we couldnt not notice and thus we had our pro-tez artists remix it for your listening pleasure. as a result we are proud to present a remix single which offers a house, a disco, a dub and a synth pop version of the original hit >90<. pompeyas music might be compared to musical styles of death cab for cutie and postal service but it has their exhilarating original sound to it. we present a killer remix single from the forthcoming album >tropical<. listen!

for tantrums second release we have a mixture of established and up and coming artists.
>screams of another< by new guys zeal & litta combines haunting synths and vocals with a slamming drop that kills dancefloors. the track never sits still with loads of edits and surprises throughout making it a track that you just have to listen to all the way through.
scene legend current value comes in to remix the track keeping all the original elements and adding a brutal drop and his trademark slamming drums to make one of the biggest dancefloor smashers around.
dj support has come from many of the best djs in hard drum and bass including dj hidden, cooh, the dj producer, forbidden society, thought and many more.

d.j. maaco is back at it again by keeping d.i.e. on the map! with long over due favorites such as dutch friends and move yo body, this will be a 12 inch you dont want to miss. listen as he drops the bass in break it down and bring the funk like no other. as you already know detroit in effect are the knights of pure detroit electro/techno and have one mission, to rock your party!

here we have the next instalment from the cut and run crew. this time they have sampled the classic 8 bit sounds from zelda which merge into a thumping break beat riddem. on the flip be prepared to be slapped in the face with heavy beats and glichy bass. this is a strong 12 so give it a listen!

clement meyer now joins correspondant, and with a nod to his parisian roots he enters our label with techno to be reckoned with. just listen to the first half of >sweet insanity<, and you will begin to appreciate his dark style as much as we do. abe duque, who we have invited to remix >sweet insanity< has been at the head of the acid-house and underground-techno table since his earliest releases way back in 1993. from muscular and melodic techno to cocktail jazz and ambient interludes, his early tracks on his own labels tension and hollis haus included releases under pseudonyms like kirilan and super secret symphony, plus his releases on others labels like disko b, rapture!, morbid, and tresor captured a particular period of clubbing history. the second part of duque s career was a run of increasingly massive 12 inch hits like champagne days, cocaine nights, acid, disco nights, and in 2004 his monster smash with blake baxter >what happened?<. his signature is now stamped across productions from top acts like chemical brothers, pet shop boys, and miss kitten, and has become a regular on dj hells gigolo label. the highlight of this period, though, was his first album >so underground it hurts<. it was undeniably a techno event, and that is exactly what he comes with today, a mind bending techno remix of >sweet insanity<. we hope you like it!

raoul records is very happy to welcome liviu groza for the fourth release of the label. after his china charm ep on cityfox just before this summer, he is back with 3 tracks that fit perfectly with the sound of the label. it certainly has something to do with house and techno, but livius personal touch is quickly modifying our expectations, for the pleasure of our ears. there is an authentic energy in livius work and the a-side track >no love< is a perfect example of that. what starts with a typical filtered techno loop is suddenly brought to another level with a huge melodic bass line and then with two chords that enlight the track with a certain melancholy. the b-side starts with another killer bass line. >the manimals< bass line is a snake that enrolls its body around every other element: a great house groove and an hypnotic piano. liviu is a snake charmer! the 3rd track >mean fine< seems to be the perfect b2 track. what sounds rather quiet and reduced when you first listen to it, turns itself into an efficient old school dj tool with such groovy hats and hypontic vocals once played on a proper sound system!

hand stamped and numbered - limited to 300 copies worldwide!
on sat002 lovework/decisions, black light smoke shows off his pop sensibilities with two sing-a-long summer anthems-in-the-making. lovework is a no-wave-inspired ditty littered with catchy analog synths, an ass-shakin bassline and reverbed claps juxtapozed with a haunting processed vocal from the producer himself that repeats, >you made a mess of my head. now i gotta put it all back together. theres nothing to say, over and over…< which is how this tune will be playing in your head after one listen. on the flip we get a taste of black light smoke in deep house mode with decisions, a lustrous and vibey joint that features a sweeter vocal by suavecito, a new guise of dj/producer and vocalist who is well known by another name. here more analog synths produce wickedly buoyant bass lines and swirling pads that combine with bubbly piano stabs and little vocal sample/edits for what sounds like it could have been a naked music release had the label been operating in 1990.

finally on vinyl! the long awaited open air summer hit, nothing more to say, just listen!

rennbahn records welcomes a new member of the family, rich.vom.dorf. grown up in a small village at the lovely countryside in mecklenburg-vorpommern, he decided to move to hamburg a couple of years ago. his debut ep on rennbahn bauernglueck in a certain way reflects the way of life at a countryside through his own intrumental techhouse style. if you listen carefully enough, you might be able to picture how the farmer is dancing with his wife on his farm, after doing his daily job. this ep puts nearly everybody a smile on his face, while dancing open air. basti grub ( desolat / hoehenregler ) produced a remix with a hypnotic & driving touch, which is also simply perfect for the summer. altogether 4 tracks with a lot of good mode!

lipservice are proud to welcome a new addition to our label roster. >out of city< are a tuscan based trio and are no strangers to the scene. having already worked with labels like eskimo and dc recordings they make a melting pot of sounds with their fingers and thumbs!
in dino storai, simone fedi and nicola lopetuso we find a band that seem to effortlessly combine synth music with disco, rock and punk and their >galactica< lp for lipservice is a real joy to listen to from start to finish.

shortly after the idea of acting as a record label under the guidance of oliver schories, the first release is already upcoming. different artists from northern germany convinced with their qualities and they found their way on the >nordlichter ep<. mauro basso brings with his >calm water< a potential summer-hit, which should not be missing on any open air event in our opinion. friends of more bassy amusement should listen to the hamburg/bremen based duo apnØ with their >trøt<, a track which encourages even the coolest northern lights to get into action. on the flipside >meet me on the streets< brings some deeper sound onto your turntable, accompained by a video on youtube, the intention of bremen-based duo datastix becomes definitely clear. last but not least julie* from papenburg, who is spinning only vinyl for years, shows us with her >cheerful expression< again, how to make your legs perk up. our advice is: dont disappoint your mum and make your exercises enjoyable: do not forget your turnbeutel in your next set.

stepping to the hard left, richard sen + cazbees edits are always a touch different from the rest of the zillion edits around. influenced by the newave and disco not disco sound of clubs like the music box these 3 new cuts have a disctinctly dark and naughty flavour. listen and judge for yourself…. mixed blood cuts has been supported from djs including: dj harvey, andrew weatherall, optimo, padded cell, idjut boys, cosmo vitelli, mark moore, pete herbert, lovefingers, golf channel and more.
