prime numbers return with m7. the first side is taken by a remix of wireman’s >armour<, the original of which was included on pn04 released at the end of last year. the remix is from move d (deep space network, source records), he ups the tempo and in trademark fashion softens the surfaces of the original, warming the core of the track whilst creating a bass heavy groove with twisting beats, synths and a husky hypnotic vocal sample. the flip includes two tracks. to start we have >crushed< by actress. darren j. cunningham aka actress runs the much lauded werk records and this track is taken from his limited cd only album >hazyville< (released on werk in the autumn of last year ) >crushed< is slo-mo, extra bass heavy, low slung house with an addictive lofi synth riff and submerged strings. the track bumps along with hiss and crackle to good affect before turning into a badalamenti-esque loop to finish. to round things off be, the up & coming manchester based producer provides >when you left<. be cut his teeth with the chicago based still music and a great al hudson reedit which found extensive dj support on its release. >when you left< is a shuffling downbeat house groove with a jazz sentiment featuring deep rhodes keys and clipped drums, the track breaks up into a bluesy accapella section then builds up to a more direct 4/4 groove to the end

some 100 years ago, sweden was a miserable dark and damp habitat. august strindberg captured the soul of the country, ingmar bergman psyched it, and lena nyman sexed it up. nowadays, we add nostalgia about the swedish model to that mix. this record is a story about the sweden you might not know, in which you need a special permit….to dance

we always treat family affairs with greatest care. you just dont know where this all ends ... most likely in shaking your head in disbelief. yet, in the case of siblings lysann and gunnar zander we have thrown all doubts overboard. by no means in at the deep end given that both of them have been making music together their whole lives: acoustic, electronic, in the depths of soul and jazz, or in the wide world of the dance floor.

dubinsky ist das pseudonym des londoner künstlers chris woodward, der bereits zu einer festen größe auf ben watts label buzzin fly avanciert ist. hinter clapton dance party steckt der engländer gemeinsam mit ein paar freunden. die mind ep kommt mit drei exzellenten tracks, die sich den gängigen mustern verweigern und aus der masse herausstechen. es ist eine sehr moderne version von clubmusik mit soul. dem schweizer label drumpoet community ist mit dieser maxi ein wirklich großer wurf gelungen

every now and then, a record comes along…this is one of those occasions. but...it is not any old record, it is a new one. specifically, the new 12inch single from sundown drive, brought to you by mind fair and rogue cat sounds. moving on from the body and soul that embodied their first trip, sd transcend you to the annals of deep clubland and melodically twist your heart strings with an early morning flutter and a tantric tension. the meandering-yet-purposeful piano finding its feet later in the proceedings this time, but rising to full effect, leaving only the dub to knock us sideways into a beautifully-simplistic dark alley of spring reverbs, synthesized prophecy and the voices in ya head telling you to give it up.

a surreal spark of darkness slowly awakens a monstrous tune that becomes more radical by the second. with soundscapes taking serious shapes, the emotion actually comes from deep within: pointing out to infinity. desolate is a hazardous mixture of sick, twisted growls taking extremely unique forms, sub-driven resonating basslines and spacious soundscapes, which bound you to darkness instantly. as the intriguing second part of desolate flows through the mind and soul, no listener is left unharmed as it sweeps you away from reality. with further developed harsh, sharp percussive elements and frightening samples to accentuate this cold production, desolation will become a step closer each and every time you lose control.

chasing kurt, das sind pascal blanché, wojtek kutschke und lukas poloczek: zwei langjährige deep-house-fans und ein einzelgängerischer funk n soul-typ, den sie unterwegs aufgabelten. alles begann in einer schicksalhaften nacht in gießen, wo die jungs zu hause sind. wie die meisten zufälligen rendezvous unserer zeit geschah es in einer bar: dj legt bis tief in die nacht auf und barkeeper mixt, was das zeug hält. als für beide das ende ihrer schicht naht, wagt barkeeper ein paar gesangseinlagen. das fällt dj auf. er lädt barkeeper zu einer jam-session ein, im bescheidenen studio eines dritten. barkeeper ist hocherfreut. house ist eigentlich nicht so sein ding, aber er tritt seit jahren auf und jammt, und so sagt er sofort zu. das ergebnis ist daydream , eine sanfte und doch satte, glutvolle kleine ballade – die dabei so gut ist, dass für ihre veröffentlichung ein brandneues label gegründet wird. es folgten verschiedene weitere releases, die den fokus auf chasing kurt lenkten. so ist der track money von maya jane coles für ihre dj-kicks-mix-compilation ausgewählt worden. innerhalb kürzester zeit hat das trio mit riesenschritten sein ganz eigenes dance-podest erklommen. from the inside , das debütalbum von chasing kurt, begeistert mit schleppenden beats und verschleierten dancefloor-rhythmen, wunderbar gepaart mit verführerischen legenden von verlorenen lieben und gewonnenen schlachten. eine runde, sorglos dance-platte und ein alles umhüllendes hörerlebnis.

ms. smooth socal soul meets mr. nocal dirtybird swagger and they have a baby together. that baby is justin jay and at 19 years old he is already making his 3rd appearance on dirtybird. i have a feeling this is justin jays breakout record. the a-side static is at 119 bpm and will sweep you up then rip your pants off. but even when you get hit with the massive bassline, an old school anchor stays intact. waves b-side has a classic deep dirtybird feeling, with tuned 808s and a surprising melodic element showing off the sweeter side of this up and coming young gun. justin jay has more potential than anyone i have heard in a while and if he continues to play like he has been lately, he has a long dj career ahead of him as well.

with ynks 10inch single polytone adds another musical facet to the labels eclectic approach. having shown his musical open-mindedness with releases on tenderpark and maria colors, ynk further underlines his reputation as a highly versatile electronic producer with the joint: over a tricky midtempo funk beat ynk assembles various 70s soul samples, thus creating a warm athmosphere which is modern and aware of tradition at the same time. on the flip side lauer takes the original and turns it into a straight and sunny house track full of classic vibes with feelings of euphoria and memories from back in the day rushing through our bodies

for the second part, frankfurts losoul (playhouse,logistic) takes the downbeat dub-techno-jazz of renatos underpool and turns it into an anthemic deep house number thats 12 minutes long and 20.000 leagues under the sea, yet full of bounce. finally, berlin-based brit ed davenport (counterchange) takes anymore and gives it an entirely different edge, a naval onslaught of crashing, jacking breakbeats, while sonar frequencies gently circle outward like the sirens call, rounding out the funkoholic remixes voyage.
