the loopity goofs return to phil weeks robsoul label with this great 4 tracker. techy edged pumping deephouse businezz with cool features. a must have record

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....)

word we werent expecting this! this fine platter kicks off with a deft mash up of paris greys dont lead me and neurotic behaviour by psyche (carl craig) and then launches into a beefed up edit of derrick mays kaos. on the b-side is a re-edit of the kevin saunderson remix of we know it by the wee papa girl rappers. we dont know who did this and nor do we care. its a perfect party record for peak time dance floor lunacy. nothing innovative, nothing new but just adding a new twist to old classics and doing it with style. highly recommended

spoken word platte. der englische text wird vorgetragen vom tocotronic sänger dirk von lotzow. streng limitiert !!

pumpin minimal techno two tracker !!after their first release on armut24 in may 2007 the berlin minimal-house project nicone now presents its second 12inch on force tracks. with >habibi< and >plesna dvorana< alexander gerlach and sasha hirtenfellner created two very danceable minimal tracks. >habibi< starts with a wide range of clics, clacs and sounds of wailing wind – accentuated by a straight beat. around three minutes later the song title becomes explicit, oriental flutes complete the sound arrangement and the magic carpet ride through arabian clubnights might begin. the trip goes directly to the balkan peninsula, >plesna dvorana< is the croatian word for ballroom and a dancing crowd is exactly what the track makes possible

the homewreckers sound deep funky, peerlessly adventurous, with elaborate clicking beats, beautifully organized riots of ideas crowding every track. their first album american ruhr will drop first half of 2008. the first release of the homewreckers feat. kemo its about time on unique records is a beautiful monster jam that will destroy dance floors all over the world. the homewreckers style plows right over any preconceived notion you may have about the current funky underground grind. its about time is such a lusciously deep track where tradition and innovation meet. tradition as in the soulful roots of 70s funk and house music, innovation as in the streamlined, sparse arrangements and shrewd use of technology. the homewreckers truly master rhythm and space - and hawaii born kemo fully adapts to the music and the atmosphere with his amazing spoken word poetry.

scott wozniak gets large again with his follow up ep to breathe. stand up is the title track, and has all of the trademark sounds and pads that have made woz the man of the moment. a spoken word is featured here, along with a mr v inspired chorus and fantastic bassline and beats. time and a red sky is the 2nd cut and is gritty and techy, perfect for harder dance floors.

being compared to &#147,dance machines, fuck friend is easily recognisable thanks to their enormous sounds between lo fi and post punk, metronomic distorted drums, some vintage keyboards, very heavy bass lines, and bitchees crystal like voice singing melodies inspired by what they call candy pop music, meaning cute songs sang by cute people. despite the projects young age, the band is already being supported by some of the greatest artists and djs: soulwax, digitalism, erol alkan, brodinski, css, bonde do role, mr flash, the teenagers, yuksek, mixhell, poney poney, benjamin diamond etc. fuck friend has been remixed by brodinsky & yuksek, mixhell (aka iggor cavalera from sepultura!) and css. dance machine is the word!

soulfuric deep is back in the biz with a very cool slice of spoken word house, courtesy of calis julius papp. with the original, papp delivers a smooth but equally rocking mix that builds the perfect background for tonee greens conscious lyrics. kemals main mix is a deeper, more techy interpretation, whilst singapores djb rocks out a solid dub.

dj hardware gives the old s.o.s. band classic a fresh 2007 update. incl jeremy word remix and severin & kennedys trance remix

as hard as it might be to believe, there was a time when the word trance did not mean dutch guys dressed in white wearing oakleys.. it also didn t mean israeli pre-military dragon-stick wielding reefer addicts.. actually, there was a glorious era where trance was a verb rather than a noun.. im talking about when you got in a trance, at lets say for example: the golden eagle in munich in 81, in a white-tiled sauna-motif discotec, grooving to a 17 minute reel-to reel version of knights in white satin on your 2nd bottle of poppers while some guy named >wolfie< takes his modern ballet skills to the >next level<. if that sounds appealing.. and i know it does.. then allow me to introduce you to compuphonic and kolombo.. a throwback to the days of romance-trance of the highest order. deep, sensual (yes, i used the word sensual) electronic grooves so potent that we were forced by a coalition of competitors labels to only release some of them digitally to restrict their awesome power to trip people out. these tracks make other tracks seem like mindless shallow shit. that includes some of turbos other releases.

brilliant 80s nyc funk inspired groovin funky house, vocodered vocals like cameos word up... big one !!

metal on metal are three young guys who found themselves djing together at a small club in their home town of vilnius. 3 years later and the guys now run their own club in lithuania and are the only home grown act to share headline status with soulwax and the chemical brothers etc at festivals in the baltics.no front teeth is the first track they have ever recorded! it immediately started to build a word of mouth online with djs playing out the demo - one of these djs was kissy sell out who has been charting no front teeth in his top 5 for months.

rmxs by etienne de crecy & proxy – essential 12inch !! …new single called tenderoni......i love the song. makes me dance. killer bassline, serious groove. groove. funk. groove. yeah! its my second fave on the album. mixed by zdar. its a funk bomb. theres that word again. we needed remixes and we spent so much time on it....oh man, its soooo annoying! why isnt there just a machine you can drop the track into and it comes out with remixes.i should list all the people that almost did remixes..... we got proxy to remix it, cuz hes russian and on turbo, and hes the future,and it was a great way to hype him up and save some cash.....but that does not mean that the mix is a compromise... in fact it is my favorite remix in ages....total rave-pop-bomb. i love it so much.... but maybe it could have been louder. i also think this is proxys first ever remix....a piece of legitimate musical history can be yours for under 10euros

summer mega-ton-bomb – sure shot!! balearic is a word which few people really understand. it can mean whatever you want it to mean, but it has always been vaguely associated with ibiza, hippies, deep tropical dance music, and british football hooligans who grew hair, showered less, and became djs. but forget those 90s british for now, there that feels better! with this special release, which we have kept quarantined on its own tuning spork extra label, we are bringing you that balearic vibe with a deep and dubby 00s house music twist. and for us, this is the record of the summer. so prepare yourself for a massive collaboration project from the social beings. this is not some duo youve never heard of, in fact its label boss jay haze (fuckpony / bearback / krak street boyz) and his friend, modern day techno legend ricardo villalobos… one piece of information which is true, unlike those ones, is that haze and villalobos are now huge figures in the house and techno world. and they are indeed social beings

rmxs by agnès & sam k, after her incredible release on num with ripperton, >sunshine chile< masaya comes back with another track full of emotions! the a side host the original track, in a pure minimal house style. youll find on this side too the amazing sam k rework. a fette deep & crunchy el choquero reshake, this track is an after party hurricane. on the agnès side, the funkman kill us with 2 reinterpretations: the first one comes in a pure detroit style and kills everyone on its road. massive hook synthz, catchy bassline & house styled drums… this is a pure 2007 nu anthem. the second remix is a pure agnès minimal groove. like a spiral into the deepness & minimalism. in one word .huge.

clectic producer johnny dangerous returns to king st. with yet another esoteric single, only yourself. his unique spoken word vocal stylings are what set him apart from other dance music producers. haunting as they may seem, they penetrate the psyche while the underlying rhythms rev up the body. italian heavy hitting producers, the pasta boys, are on board to give this an effective synthy remix thats perfectly inline with johnnys lexis. edgy, dark, minimal, techy and punchy, their remix gives energy without being overly aggressive. for those who need something a bit lighter, johnny dangerous original mix puts a bit of the funk and soul back into the song with guitar wa was and slapping percussion. theres something incredibly sexy about what johnny dangerous brings into being. is it his voice? his lyrics? his production? whatever it is, its good, and a pasta boys remix to boot? buon apetito

jeremy words slamming electrohouse version of the huge timbaland smash hit

and so we have, >irst_te?< the word is bay area fillmore slang for >thirsty?< worthy saw it painted on a fence somewhere and made a track about it. this could be a breakout year for worthy who has already had multiple plays on radio one of his >whistler< remix and >that funkin noise< from his digital label, katabatic. >irst_te?< is bouncy and fun and it sounds kind of like it was inspired by the band in the original star wars with the alien clarinet players and the blue elephant on keys. claude vonstroke takes it darker and more techno, with an epic sounding build that could fit into almost any set

support by oliver koletzki, inaqui marin, angel molina… marc marzenit is without a doubt one of the covered ones of the electronic scene of dance for this 2007. spheere is track 100% marzenit, great melodies and arpeggios, explosive hit, crescendo continuous and hipnótic to the maximum. today is yesterday - claustrophobia-rmx is governed more by similar patterns but less serious than spheere, and with a definitive attack to the jugular one in its culminating point. today is yesterday - original rmx- adopts melancholic forms with a minimalistic suit in the less contemptuous tone of the word. this does not sound like a regular record? then in the cover and the label it puts it well clear r-e-g-u-l-a-r

if someone had to describe the sixth release from pascal feos album >synaptic< with one word, >bassline< would be the one that fits. the a side >ausklang< is dominated by a sawtooth >bassline< which modulates more and more to reach her climax shortly before the break. the b page >stargazer< begins with a techno groove to change later by a charmingly lascivious >bassline< into a nice floating tune. as a bonus we have on b2 a nice >acid bassline< , which reminds of that man from the >jackcity<, regarding to the title > mr f <.
