special restock !!! latin edged house / techhouse to detroit techno trax - incl carl craig dub mix !!

phonicas seventh release comes from paul woolford as he delivers a double dose of quality crossbreed dancefloor music taking his sound to new depths and illustrating hes an artist who never stops evolving. fresh from a tour with, and in advance of a release on planet e, paul woolford continues his rise to becoming one of the most important electronic music artists of the decade with his first release for phonica, a label who have unleashed some unrivalled quality cuts on their catalogue. opening this special double a-side 12 inch is >cant do without<, a bone-shaking record that is laced in originality. building up slowly from a tape-hiss-laden break, a low-slung bassline and a deep yearning vocal, >i cant do without you< is sublime dancefloor material. engaging from the outset with clever broken beats that build playfully into an emotive, psychedelic breakdown to get lost in, woolford demonstrates why he has achieved so much success in his game. on the flip >bareback< treads into dark acid territory that is a hybrid of techno and dubstep in a similar vein to actress and recent material from instra:mental / boddika

in 2011 carl craigs planet-e imprint turns 20. to celebrate, as well as a world-wide label tour starting in march 2011, craig is releasing a best of planet-e compilation – entitled 20 f@#&ing years - we aint dead yet (released vinyl in june), and releasing a monthly remix release from the planet-e back catalogue, where friends of the label choose their favourite planet-e release and add their take on it.

a two tracker of freshness from boxcutter, aka barry lynn, a producer who was taking chances - constantly mutating his dubstep based music, way before people started talking about post-dubstep. this single precedes his new album >the dissolve<, due out in april.

>the face of the planet< is the opening track and first single of the subs freshly squeezed full album decontrol that will be released on lektroluv end of march. the subs give you an anthem. a hymn. some people will recognize this track from the notorious subs live shows, but be prepared for a new version that sounds fresh like a happy polar bear. optimistic yet melancholic. old but new. punchy and sexy. the new subs have arrived!
accompanied by banging remixes by style of eye, tai & gtronic this makes an amazing package.
plays by crookers, steve aoki, dr. lektroluv, don rimini, proxy, nt89, hey today, dj manaia, mixhell etc ...

fresh drivin techno madness!! sect opens its temple doors to more good fortune of music with another star who has endured since the early mists of technos timeline. an artist responsible for many precious jewels in its crown, fanon flowers. a unique brand of machine funk is the forte, garnering huge respect from djs and a prowess displayed by endless real techno label signings planet wide. up as the title track gives us the mechanisms sound we know and love, groove spectres emanating from the machine. maschinenhaus parts 1 & 2, lessons in minimal funk we originally learnt and do so to this day from the likes of hood et al.

>13.0< is the reduced title of the original track, which reflects as well the puristic approach of the sound. oldschool manner meets analog waves on swinging grooves, that cleares the way across the galaxy. gabriel le mar pitches down the velocity and touches down on the magical fairys planet! his silver bullet is the game of dice and conjures the fairies with an ocean of moments in happiness, what ends up in joyful dancing. playing games has ever been his passion! the trip goes on in low level flight mode. the smalltown collective offers clearer strings with a dose of deepness. on his remix of >29.0<, steve coles shoots the fire with wide-opened claps and crunching the gear, while spreading the music by the machine into the width of the universe.

planet rhythm is in the zone, slammer after slammer. always on top in charts and aint no dj without some of the planet rhythm tune in his bag. the next hit is by focus and analogmode labelboss spiros kaloumenos. and its another slaaaaaaamer!! big beats, basslines and full of energy. another one that is rocking the clubs all over the place.

5th release from the acidlabs / ac records camp comes as split ep with tracks by time light curve and headnoaks.

so … the story goes something like this: being inspired one day by 69 >desire<, vince decided to create an interpretation of it using his own unique sound. the track was done very quickly as a gimmick to send to carl craig as a mark of respect for his own track, now the track has been signed by carl for planet e and the world will now hear that very 12 minute piano and string filled beatless gimmick that is proving to be vinces most musical piece to date. its epic stuff. flipmode with >qualia< which takes off where vinces fcom material left off. deep driving hypnotic dancefloor material with an orchestra thrown in for good measure.

nice price deal !!! early support by luciano, dop, mathias kaden, steve bug, dixon, tini, karotte, markus fix, chris lattner, timo maas, ripperton, nick harris, martin landsky!baalsaal welcomes mr aeromaschine and predicts a long relationship to come. aeromaschine delivered a real versatile stunner. debunking random myths stands out as a very unpredictable piece of live performanced like collage and definitely will be his opener on his next festival in summer. not so is an hypnotic acidy interpretation of past future old school with a present high roller coat. this track blew us away. on the flip dean aka bearweasel digs a little deeper with classy dubby elements and a journey to planet x dream dancing to come... the dark horse is serenades for simple brains a beatdowner that nails it when it comes to non hype edit production.. a track to play for the next decade.

strong techno-cuts from 2000 by glenn wilson on his planet rhythm imprint, including remix by chris mccormack.

terror danjah is back on planet mu after last years >gremlinz< compilation reintroduced him to the world at large. since then, as well as planet mu, he has released a single on hyperdub, one on butterz with more to come.
well the gremlinz are back again on planet mu with this punchy 8 track double e.p. of experimental grime that showcases a breadth of new music, that swallows rnb and dubstep into terrors self made matrix.

london grime producer swindle follows up his incredible planet mu ep with another slab of funked-up grime, this time for a rapidly expanding rwina records. swindles return marks a slightly stripped-down sound: the funk is meaner, heavier, and nastier. >playground< grooves on rainbow synths and leisurely, drawn-out melodies, as a boogie bassline carves memorable phrases in the ground below. all of this is shoved in an approachable halfstep template that means the track could just as easily slot into any dubstep set as the grime scene in which swindle dominates. did we mention theres a killer freestyling organ solo in the breakdown?

repressed - white label - red vinyl - d5, the artist formely known as dimension 5, returns to the label where he started. three times deeply smooth funk techno tracks. his last track >floatation tank< on the >planet delsin< compilation, was favorite along a broad range of deejays, and licensed to josh winks mix compilation. this neutrino ep brings us three times deep funky warm minimal/techno. sounds along the lines of luciano and aril brikha, groovy late night techno. very deep

as nang completes its first two years on the planet things are going pretty well. we are certainly not getting rich in financial terms but the love of the music and plaudits are warming our souls to the core. along the way we have also managed to work with some amazing artists and introduce some mighty-fine new ones to the world so it is with great pleasure that we bring you the 2nd installment of our >array< series. it is a stock-take of the best nang tunes from the past year, some previews on future hits and some tracks we just had to release!

2010 was a great year for planet rhythm, solid releases from great artists and a lot of good feedback, airplay and reviews. many djs are happy to play the releases and the crowd reacts in the only proper way,just dancing and showing love. planet rhythm is standing for quality techno releases and will continue doing so for years to come. first up for 2011 is claudio ponticelli showing his look on the italian side of techno, enjoy and play it out loud as usual!

the energetic >coconut coast< is an awesome example of whats coming from oriol, and he has bought some remixers along for the party too. faltydl brings the tempo down and gives the track a strange off key shuffling rub thats reminiscent of theo parrish at his oddest. mike paradinas in his jake slazenger guize, does a mix of >memories< thats almost funky house, mixed with big rubbery jazz chords and classy diva vocal samples. shortstuff takes >memories< and draws it into strange new shapes over stiff beats.

planet mu is really happy to present their new signing oriol to the world. his debut album >night and day< has the depth of musicality and subtlety of an artist who knows exactly what he wants, and its also the perfect summer album.

optimum is malcolm chen, a new producer from south east london. he has collaborated with ikonika recently but planet mu are very happy to be releasing his first solo 12 inch.
the lead track >max power< lives up to its name, mixing tight electro-soca drums with a barrage of ravey riffs that build up with strange transporting noises, creating an almost unbearable, driving intensity without ever having to reach for the wobbly bass or other cliches.

hailing from ireland, wicklow and dublin to be precise, solar bears are john kowalski and rian trench, the sole producers and musicians on the album >she was coloured in<. they met and formed at pulse sound engineering school, started recording and were swiftly picked up by planet mu. the album follows in the wake of expectation laid down by their recent >inner sunshine ep< and a series of remixes.

created back in 1994 by secret cinema, no one could have predicted how timeless this track would turn out to be! if you are in to electronic music and live on this planet, theres a 75 percent chance youll recognise the weird reversed, reverbed piano riff! now, for the first time, the original is available digitally with remixes by slam, egbert and secret cinema himself that made their way to vinyl as well. the massive techno tune from 94 is ready for a little update! it can be a challenge to remix a track with so much history, but all three managed to complement the original while giving a unique spin to the track. the secret cinema 2011 remix is a peak time main room power tool that will turn a big crowd into a riot any day. slam take a deeper, more subtle approach that can hypnotize and rock a main room crowd without blowing their wigs off. finally egbert takes the track to a warmer funkier level, equipped with a funk-filled bass line and some warm pads over the top. a truly timeless package!!

planet rhythm comes hard with another slammer for december. driving techno from start to finish by spiros kaloumenos, claudio ponticelli, luky r.d.u and the mighty gunjack! this is quality techno..

>i keep asking myself where they take all that brilliant music from. its just as if somebody had poked a bees nest and then it all burst out. i feel deeply connected to the pampa style…< (terry hogann, the musical mistress, 10/2010). as was to be expected, pampa is steadily developing into a platform for cross-border electronic dance music. each pampa release sounds different from the previous and still pampa remains a conclusive musical planet. this is all the more surprising in the case of pampa005, which features two completely different artists: side a: nathan fake - xmas rush having reportedly recorded his track >xmas rush< in his london studio during a jam session, nathan fake (border community, traum, saw) has turned in a total brainfuck. its mercylessly exaggerated, psychedelic, inexorable, and at the same time sweet and heart-warming. a very rare mixture. unique in its consistency, we havent heard anything like it since the 90s. its so nice and overwhelming to have your ears exercised the right way again. evergreen… side aa: dj koze pays tribute to michael smith - >mi cyaan believe it< in the meantime, dj koze has moved on to completely different spheres. once again, he astonishes his public with an extremely danceable version of michael smiths >mi cyaan believe it<. having originally started off as a digital error, and recorded within a single night, this tune recalls the ruthlessness, rawness and revolutionary energy of public enemy

2010 has seen some juicy, off-the-wall techno/electronic vinyl goodies from the head space of little nobody, including the acclaimed >metropolis how?< and >robota< records - with remixes by the likes of james ruskin, justin berkovi, inigo kennedy, dj hi-shock, si begg, patrick pulsinger and steve stoll. but its the originator of the tracks who continues to push the perimeters, recently leading hi-shock, the prolific innovator behind the essential elektrax empire, to suggest that honestly, i think you are at least a couple of years ahead in your musical vision compared to other producers. little nobodys alter ego andrez bergen has also had his head buried this year in the creation of a hardboiled/noir/sci-fi novel called >tobacco-stained mountain goat<, and it was in the midst of this project - with these heady influences - that the get away from it all 12-inch project came to light. thus we got on board bas mooy (planet rhythm/audio assault) and dave tarrida (tresor/musick) to do the two scintillating re-takes here, which are downright brilliant. meanwhile little nobodys troll, on the flip-side, lives up to its claim: its hardboiled and devastatingly dirty electronica. all up, think streetwise, smack-your-glitch-up techno - dark, uber-bassy, dirty and pulsating - just the way we like it, with sardonic samples and a freestyle, postmodern attitude thats invigorating. matched up with the cool artwork by marcin markowski, this is an essential slab of wax for 4:00 am head-caving techno!

dimitri kneppers (1967) music career reads like an encyclopedia. a house encyclopedia. after 23 years of spinning records you could call this dj a true veteran. known for his enormous sensitivity, true feeling and mixing skills he gives you the sense you are the voyeur of an intimate act between two lovers. the music and the man. but nobody ever felt and looked so comfortable behind the decks as dj dimitri, for he brings the crowd at ease like don juan would do with women. when ecstasy is no longer just a word, but a true magical moment as the crowd, the surroundings and the music all come together in one hypnotizing state of happiness. this man knows -or should we say feels- what he is doing, not only behind the decks but also when producing. in september 2007 dimitri said goodbye to his headphones to work on a farm with mentally handicapped people. fortunately for his fans the break wasnt premanent in the middle of last year he installed a studio in his home, then this past june he returned to the decks - now he makes his planet e debut with a stunning track already tearing up dancefloors. included is the first of two remixes by carl craig. a second ep with remixes by orlando voorn and carl craig will appear in early 2011

following on from last years impossibly good the love quadrant ep by space dimension controller, kinnego records return with two tracks from label owner boxcutter, his first new material since the arecibo message album on planet mu. >moon pupils< is a gentle, trippy bit of 2-step, full of tweaked analogue melodies and tape echoed flute. on the flip, boxcutter & kab driver take inspiration from vintage library music and dubbed out disco. >2time< is all handclaps and insistent synth chords, with two woozy string-led breakdowns. kab driver previously worked on kgo001 as part of kinnego flux.

marco bernardi marks his second outing on the dirty planet imprint with a 4 track ep bursting with emotion and originality. >i feel the lies< has a more laid back approach with deep and trippy grooves and evolving acidy stabs which are complimented with the unassuming and neatly placed vocal of detroit legend and aux88 founder keith tucker, making it one of those truly >special< tracks. second track >giro< (exium remix) is directed more towards the harder techno fans keeping the arrangement simple and the kick big and bold, this excellent remix has seen early support from surgeon with him choosing to feature it on the recently released fabric53 mix cd. flipping the record over sees two tracks exploring different sounds and moods. >msry< builds pace surrounded by an array of atmosphere, hissing percussion and lush detroit sounding synths where as killer track >giro< is a raw, off beat, electro monster laced with acid sequences and dirty bass.
