piemont had a furious premiere at gedankensport. the nightshift ep caused huge waves of response. frederic möring-sack and christian de jonquieres already had an excellent reputation as solo artists the last years but as piemont they brought up an extraordinary standard of minimal techno. they run their own labels suchtreflex, hammarskjold and fingerfoodmusic. their music is suitable for peak time as well as for after hours and listening comfort. their debut gained great public interest and soon top artists supported as thomas schumacher, oliver huntemann, oliver koletzki, monika kruse, deep dish and umek supported the tracks. heavy rotation accelerated by their next act of greatness at gedankensport and now we are proud to announce the follow-up which is another wonderful milestone of minimalism!

killer! we are honored that cadenza co-founder philippe quenum joins the fray with this super-fresh two tracker straight out of his geneva studio and into clubs, after parties, and living rooms all over the world. agbaja is a panorama bar special. it is big, freaky, dark, and loud. it is made for places that dont stop. it is for that moment when the party is about to lose control. this is quenums darker side. a day in mumbai is one of those tracks that defies description. is it house? is it techno? to us, its modern minimal music with personality. its soulful. its percussive. its loose. its quirky. most tellingly, its highly personal look into the roots of a very talented african-born, french-raised musician. if you cant get into this, get your head checked.

after the hypnotic ethereal sound of stream of consciousness and the rootsy down home feeling of the nakusanga ep, an underground buzz began about what would come next from the bu mako label. the fragments ep establishes jenifa mayanja as a serious artist unafraid of pushing boundaries, branching into the unexpected, quietly seducing the listener without beating down the senses into submission. while jenifa mayanja makes no declaration as to what genre she may be classified into, the music has no problem resting comfortably between deep house, future jazz, downtempo, detroit tech and electronica.

big rockin 3 tracker !! after there releases on highgrade and supdub the two berlin-guys are back with three incredible fat tracks/tip

a little less than two and a half years after its conception—and close to 30 singles, one compilation, one mix cd and one sublabel later—berlins mobilee releases its first artist album. naturally, who better to represent the milestone than pan-pot, who so far have delivered five essential singles to mobilee, helping to anchor the ever-shifting sound of one of europes most exciting labels. in just two short years, with 10 singles (for mobilee and einmaleins musik) and lots of remixes, theyve become known far and wide for their distinctive, groovy, and above all ominous sound. pan-o-rama finds the boys stretching that sound in every possible direction: twisting, tearing, and using the shreds to drag a wide swath of techno history into the future (and, just maybe, to drag a few pieces of techno future back into the past). call it minimal if you must, but this aint no clickity-clack shit. you can hear the agonized gurgle of isolationist acid, reminiscent of plastikmans darkest nights. you can hear the percolating urgency of classic bleep techno. tried and true hardware collides with restless digital experimentation as dance musics dna worms its way into twisted new shapes. pan-o-rama is dark, thats for damned sure. eerie vocals that seem to come from within the listeners own head creep across the stereo field. throughout, restrained minor-key melodies conjure 21st century noir, and a relentless low-end rumble seems to suck up all the light around it

real soon is proud to present the debut release by berlin-based producer hauke freer. hauke has an old-school production approach, working with contemporary software but using a palette of mainly vinyl samples to give a loose, effortless, raw-sounding edge. my beat is a dirty, gritty, house work-out featuring deep, filtered chords, lo-fi percussion and roughly chopped vocal pieces. old-fashioned in a good way - just the way we like it! we must face our fears is a smoother, minimal track with a delicate, beautifully measured mesh of percussive knocks, slides & bleeps driven by a pulsing sine wave bass. as the track builds, a classic detroit-flavoured chord wash brings it all together. bliss... biography hauke freer grew up in a small town near hamburg and moved to berlin in 2000 to work for the techno label kanzleramt. after spending a year in australia djing and working for the label future classic, hauke returned to berlin to work for the resopal schallware label

spacetalk recordings present their second release, a powerful 3 track ep from veteran producer matthew puffett aka future beat alliance. future beat alliances music is warm and melodic with roots firmly implanted in detroit techno soul. his debut release for spacetalk contains some of his finest work to date, with retro synths and hints of vangelis style soundscapes weaving through the multiple musical layers and dusty vocal samples. breathe in your fear is a cool acidic detroit techno groove that has met with broad appeal amongst the select djs that have had the privilege to hear this deep gem. reverse the negative conjures up late nights at the loft with its haunting violin melody and seductive female sci fi dialogue. the ep is rounded off by the majestic contact yourself which draws from balearic, cosmic and electronica to create a melodic slo mo groove for those after hours sessions

zimmermann alias jens zimmermann aka tyrell corp. aka dj gargamel is constantly changing yet always the same: a damn good producer. from his early days when he whipped up tracks by culture beats and out of the ordinary into dancey frenzy with well-known german producer torsten fenslau, to his drum n bass-fuelled moments of technical innovation, jens has never been one to stand still. constantly reinventing hilmself, he always managed to keep things ticking, making him one of the most sought-after producers in the late eighties and throughout the nineties. now, in 2007, after years of noise research and sound sculpting, he is re-emerging as zimmermann which stands for >new german minimal sound<. after three much-celebrated releases, aptly called zimmermann #1, #2 and #3 on room recordings, which were severely hyped up by germany s house fraternity, and releases and remixes on boxersport, k2,and hifreaks as well as on harthouse mannheim, the future is looking bright for jens

supported by richie hawtin, tiefschwarz, loco dice, miss kittin , jussi pekka & many others!! again providing you with two new high quality techno tunes. on the a side we present you the tune: >tuna belly< , which is taken from the forthcoming full lenght, >martinez< album on re:connected, due for release later this year. the track starts off with a pounding deep kick-drum and a heavey roland sh-101 baseline. quickly after some heavey snares, claps and some underwaterish bubble sounds enter onto the groove and the track is steady rolling towards its peak break down. the baseline is filtered and tweaked through layers of efx into just a high pitched noise that is just on the edge of getting too much and right at that time it sweeps back into the full groove with a slaming hihat to lift the track even more. >tuna belly< is one of those track that definitely will make you go crazy on the dance floor in the late hours

firm fave of: ewan pearson, agoria,fabrice lig, ali schwarz, shinedoe, ben watt, jimpster, umek, bodzin !!! pele is back, this time in cooperation with shokh aka dave shokh, dipolder label owner and kiddaz.fm ambassador. peles last release >childhoods end< is one of connaisseur most successful releases so far in 2007, with plenty of licensings for many important summer compilations. thumbs was already released as a limited 250 copies white label release in february this year. finally this great rumbling techno track found its way to connaisseur, to be presented to a bigger audience. >thumbs< is a squeaky, twittery and kickin minimal techno track packed with a bunch of little astonishing moments. already featured on patrick chardronnets grand cru mix, this is more than a perfect mixing tool: a stripped down minimal hymn, no redundant emotions, strictly rhythm a quality ass-shaker! simon baker leeds-based shooting star of 2007. after his amazing releases on playhouse, connaisseur, viva and his own imprint infant, he drops this massively bouncing techno monster of a remix. kind of chicagoesque, kind of daft and massively pushing pure peaktime madness!
