do you know gummihz? the gummihz that hails from greece but was raised on a steady diet of chicago and new york house? the gummihz that sings? the gummihz that incorporates disco, electro, jazz, and chanson into his productions? well if you don t, now you will. the >sleepless nights< double 12 inch is gummihz first release on mobilee since >under the sun< and is a radical departure from anything we ve ever heard from gummihz ù or even mobilee ù before. gummihz multidimensional production abilities allow him to dig deep into his roots and influences on the one hand while simultaneously exploring new, uncharted territory on the other. alternatingly retro and futuristic, this two-part ep series is a portrait of gummihz as an artist from a variety of angles, one we ve only seen fragments of up until now. one might view this ep as an attempt on gummihz behalf to explore his musical roots in a contemporary context, with the end result being a strikingly varied yet cohesive statement of gummihz musical and artistic leanings. on the one hand, gummihz delves into his past, with tracks such as >sunshine dub< and >bang< fusing the samples, cut-offs, and filtered loops of french house with an almost balearic, hypnotic twist. on the flip-side, we also get a snapshot of gummihz at his most somber ù>love call<, featuring vocals from gummihz himself, has a jackin house beat but bears no resemblance to the cheery sounds of chicago house on which our grecian friend was raised. instead, he favors a cloudy, almost cold-blooded vibe, with chilling lyrics manipulated to the point of near-indecipherability (bringing to mind the brilliant vocal work of the knife and fever ray) with a final product that is nonetheless aptly suited for the dance floor.

another fresh face for the vastness we like to call minimal techno. a few months ago, javier logares tracks for bar 25s little sub-sister bar25digital went down a storm, so it was about time to introduce his music to the vinyl world of bar 25.
>elastic doll< is a cheeky bouncing piece of minimal techno with a marching bassline and a handful of dancing bleeps at all the right places. this elastic doll will lure you right into afterhour debauchery.

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

played by luciano, laurent garnier, timo maas, d julz, bart skills and more!
polytone remains in deep territories and has signed two of the most exciting tracks of drei farben house (brut!) so far. on final call the berlin resident succeeds in building a bridge between minimal aesthetics and the musicality of deep house which has rarely been heard in this form. in this 8-minute track a whole series of musical themes are flashing yet held together by a lot of instinctive feeling. on looking back to control drei farben house is just as deep and melodically interesting and again relies on unusual track structures. in his remix matthias vogt from motorcitysoul works out the chords and melody themes of the original even more and turns final call into an exciting, swelling affair whereas newcomer baldo (dubhe) transforms the original track into a brilliant and wonderfully classic piece of dubtechno.

spectrum recordings returns after the summer months with a fantastic deep dark two tracker to take us into those shorter nights of the year from italian duo ascion & davide carbone. the a side >shaved< is a stripped down dubby groover, with eerie vocal stabs and spacey edits. this has a seriously tripped out vibe, which is perfect for the after hours, but still with more then enough punch to work at peak time, with some layered percussion or effects. the flip side >spectral town< is a minimal funky track, superbly produced and once again perfect for the after hours. a very cool and classy record from a label stamping its mark on the scene, and still only in its first year of releasing music. look out for future releases from ramon tapia, gui boratto and alan fitzpatrick. big things to come!

pong musiq presents sven schienhammer aka quantec! he grew up in the 80s and have been working on electronic music since 1995. he maintains a fruitful relationship with the styrax label and produced a plethora of dub tech gems over the recent years in labels like echocord, millions of moments, meanwhile, smallfish and francois ks wavetec label. he s been considered the natural successor of moritz von oswald and mark ernestus (basic channel). this 3rd ep on pong musiq records contains 4 absolutely massive tracks for all the dub-techno fans out there. sven proves his amazing talent and moves his sound to the next level. floating music with hovering chords and his characteristic kick-drum shuffle, shimmering keys edging into the mix for a truly tripped out excursion from the deepest recesses of berlins techno dub vault. it is very hard to capture the feeling arising from this great music in words.

every new record from mlz doesnt quite fit in with the one that preceded it, something thats doubly true for this new release.
>one cycle< on the a-side is probably the most fierce, stripped and relentless thing ever released by modern love, a classic reduction that rotates into a frenzied crescendo of panning stabs and a washed out, chugging backbone that doesnt let-up throughout its 7 minute duration.
the flipside offers up something else entirely, a remix for hitherto unknown operator dj ghosthunter, a shady character not quite ready to unmask himself. mlzs remix offers a dank and obliterated house configuration, guided by the spirit of theo parrish and kdj.

the third release on phonica records is a no-nonsense dancefloor burner from matt tolfrey and d. ramirez, with a stunning remix from lauhaus. >bounce to me< is an exquisitely stripped-back jack track, propelled along by clipped vocal samples, deep chord stabs and funked-up percussion - as the title suggests, its all about the bounce. thats really all you need to know: this piece of music has been built for the sole purpose of dancefloor devastation and will do the job every time. matt tolfrey is the boss of leftroom recordings and one of the uks most compelling young dj/producers, with releases on crosstown rebels and viva music among others. d. ramirez is of course the sheffield-based producer behind numerous hit tracks for labels like four:twenty and his own slave recordings. the flipside remix comes from underground hero lauhaus, a dutch producer whos made quite a name for himself with his muscular productions for labels like remote area and intacto. here he toughens and tightens tolfrey and ramirezs original >bounce to me< into a rolling techno groove, adding real drama and forward thrust with crisp hi-hats and stacatto percussion. the soundtrack to late summer has arrived. bounce!

ricardo jefferson is a producer and dj based in manchester, england. the four tracks on this ep demonstrate a distinctive style. the roots of his sound are in funk, disco, space rock, prog rock, but he has melded them into a sound that is more than just the sum of these elements. this is funky, bass-heavy, trippy techno for the dance floor. a1 a brutal truth. this is a big tune that builds relentlessly. the track has an inclusive, celebrational, feel which simply invites everyone to lose it on the dance floor. 124bpm. a2 persons unknown. this tune doesn t have the relentless build of a brutal truth. instead, this is a tune to drop when everyone on the dancefloor is in the zone and locked into the groove. a finely crafted trip created with multiple delays skittering around the sound field, anchored by the funky bass heavy groove. 123 bpm. b1 the egg part one. a track employing a tight kick drum of differing weights to propel the groove, overlayed with a circular keyboard motif. on the off-beat, add the processed sound of someone hitting a metal sheet, and viola! - one aggressively funky dance floor bomb! 123 bpm. b2 god of the machine. this track has a simple 4x4 kick and handclap pattern pinning down a delicious oscillating bass line, under a classic descending four chord circular chord progression. off kilter ride cymbals give the track its backbone, and fluidity. ricocheting handclap delays add dimension. sly stone would be proud of this groove. now get on the dance floor and strut your stuff! 119 bpm. the cover shows a still image from the music video a brutal truth directed by ricardo jefferson and laura lee.

diametric is a new glasgow based record label which aims to put the word underground back into electronic music and give back something special to the techno and electro community. the label is strictly vinyl only. each release will be very limited and packaged by hand to give the label a personal approach for all true underground techno heads out there that still appreciate the spirit of true techno and electro.
the first release is a dream come true project for us, as we are proud to present a 12 inch by detroit legend optic nerve aka keith tucker, part of the famous electro duo aux88. keith is recording under several monikers such as optic nerve, k-1 or alien fm since the very early nineties and has built his own unique style of electro and techno music out of detroit. the >reassimilation ep< showcases keith at his best, deep driving techno with that extra bit of funk that most of todays productions are missing. we are very sure these tracks will devastate the dancefloors.
get reassimilated!

autodiscotheque return with a mighty release by one of their favourite maverick producers and djs danny berman. with releases on tirk, untracked, deep freeze and society, danny has made a big impression with his mixed up approach to production and djing. from the wonky house of the hot coins material released on tirk, to the more classically detroit outings under his red rackem moniker, danny is a music lover with an ear for the not so obvious and the left of centre musical territory.on this release which features both his musical personas simultaneously, the idea was to truly represent the difference between the red rackem and hot coins sounds on a single release, and to recreate an intense peak time feeling, but to do it from these two completely different scenes.place for me is detroit inspired heads down, cut up motown soul business, which pays homage to one of dannys favourite producers moodymann, and fits perfectly into that crossover space between slo-mo house and disco. chinese electro on the flip however, references that authentic early 80s new wave electro sound, and is influenced by yellow magic orchestra and recordings from new wave radio shows like belgiums liaison dangereuses

this first vinyl release on coincidence.lmtd is the advent of a new direction that the label has taken. back to the vinyl. back to the approach where a release needs to be perfect before its sent out into the world instead of hurrying to meet monthly download deadlines. back to the essence: the music.
