if it says trouble on it, you know that its going to be intense inside. marcus meinhardt has the bow strings pulled tight and is aiming for the techno heart of the dance floor with his latest release for upon you on a1. the arrow subtly touches the souls of the crowd, making eros faint with jealousy in front of the dj booth. the b sides restart a track form deep within the techno-boiler goes in the same hypnotic direction, to a place where the nights haze rises above the heads into the sky and is carried by exalted hands

first on decks.de!!! >blast corps< opens the ep with a surge of delayed baseline. crispy static rises from below and echoes swoop and simmer beneath the full blooded base. it builds insistently, the 4/4 structure is infused with far off blips and the dusty sizzles of lowpitched white noise. on dark star warm dub keeps the sound organic. it’s elemental, the baseline seems enormous enough to have a gravity of its very own and the other elements pull together around its weight. it teases, the breathy elements twitch, fidget, become fully formed but refuse to drop. frank martiniq refuses the obvious, and opts for the discerning. this is the stuff of intrigue, as is the percussive opening to b2 >lovelane<. here a rattling, clattering sequence breaks out into a euphoric, syncopated structure. its dark, playful and danceable techno.

the droids beamed down to planet earth in the year 1978. yves hayat aka droids, was a young label manager at the seminal french disco label barclay in the seventies. >star peace<, originally released in 1979 is his concept to the classic sci fi movie >star wars< out that year. featuring the french space synth classic >(do you have) the force<, in both parts, this lp goes from strength to strength with spaced out lullabys >inner space< & >tchough fou<, before kicking back into the groove with >be happy< an assault to the senses with its manic synth lines running riot over heavy funk overtones. the flip kicks off with >shanti dance< parts 1 & 2, sleezy robot-funk work outs that are inter-joined to make a 6 minute continually evolving piece of music. the closing eight-and-a-half- minute >renaissance de l amour< is a tour de force of cinematic synthscapes, bleeps, bloops and world rhythms, before dropping in the drums 6 minutes in to ignite any dancefloor. this is light years ahead of its time.

groove charts # 3 !!! >sex ×technology = the future< ( jg ballard) wires are the arteries of the modern world, connecting and supplying practically everything that defines our lives. we channel our desires like an electrical current through our machines. musically, the concept is about drawing together the different strands, from techno and minimal to house to ambient and experimental. there is a common thread that runs through these different genres, linking them like the roots of a tree. this diversity is what keeps everything fresh for me. the >raudive< project explores techno and minimal, further releases will feature >atlas<, a new project created by myself and co-producer tommy gillard which moves into more detroit house territory. later there will be music from >zov zov< music that references pan sonic, coil and sunno))).

taking the freaky chicago sound down a couple of notches to the deeper realms of jazzy house. heavenly vocals, light broken beats, rolling live bass and touching rhodes progressions. the flip dives deeper into an instrumental version of the latter and is none the less satisfying.

fans of burial mix and grayhound best listen up, cause the boys from succulent have come to mash up the hi-fi wit tha wicked dub, man. all three of their pieces use that unbelievably deep sub-bass that made their track on grayhound bug everyone out. pair that to masterful use of effects and proper ly placed samples of rasta mcs and you got that deep down, below the root line, damn its dark, kinda undaground dub shit that worship seem impossible to not do right. then the masters at the dub-house sound, solomonic sound, rework >freshly< into a sub-aquatic fun house of dubbedout bass wicked percussion all wrapped in spacey sounds. big, fat & totally necessary for any self respecting dub/house dj.

now that he has warmed up the dance floor with style, its time for his eagerly awaited debut on mobilee records, >princess guacomole<, which comes packed with energy ready to get the summer parties rocking. title track >princess guacomole< features a melodic and jazzy hook set over a driving and bouncy percussive bass. meanwhile b side >la guapa< will pick you up with by its hypnotic rift which builds up into a frenzy. its an amazing debut for rodriguez jr on mobilee …. enjoy!

maybe >grandfathers clock< is the most house influenced release from the german duo piemont so far. going more deep dirty and housy this time... they turn towards a more relaxed and slack approach. chopping up bits of vocals and sounds, tight and funky, this is what piemont is all about. >running mirror< refers to giorgio moroder respectively hi energy influences and is a hypnotic cool groove monster that will convert spaces into soulful places. frederic and christian have released a good dozen of records now and have been very successful. with >peak time tracks< such as >carbonat< being played by the whole lot of ibiza djs and big names around the world. >running mirror< definitely manifests a turning point in their musical spectrum... to deeper grounds of electronic dance and will get other djs involved in their manifold world of music.

the original mix of >slow burn< is a lush slice of ambient techno that immediately sucks you into its subby atmospheric realm and gently lulls you into a netherworld where chords and pads playfully bounceoff one another. the neverending bass arpeggio beneath will gently wobble you into submission.

this is the debut release from aussie youngster, charlie why. a superb dark druggy disco 4 tracker. >i am deliciously wired< sounds like an acid trip spaceship mixed with freaked out vocals drenched with mechanical rhythms and industrial squeaks. >biscuits< enters you into a world of space and depth, looping you into a wonking and rolling state of mind. when it is reaching the early hours of the morning >nose< warms you with deep seductive elements with sexual groove. like a girls naked body, >mountain body< is smooth and curvaceous with lush piano chords, rolling bass, and vibrant melody.

the skinnerbox disco jazz opus >king of spades and marmalades< (album mmxa0903lp) has not even been digested properly û yet these electronic nerds have hurled into work again. first, an own branded synthesizer for abletons collaboration software max4live was developed, and now a new maxi is ready to be out.
