all god s children is pure deephouse with driving percussion, a classic house groove, lush keyboard work and a bassline that brings you through the night. the bside sports two versions of the track anything is possible. the maison vumbi edit by xaver hinself is very faithful to the original version, which is a disco tainted take on early chicago house, and simply streamlines the track for ideal dancefloor compatibility. the filiberto marmelade remix on the other hand turns the track into a psychedelic piano-house jam with a highly addictive additional hook, a real summer tune..

lcd soundsystem returns with a song written for the soundtrack to the sony pictures film 21. james murphy’s concept of what a big rock song made for a movie could sound like more than a balls-out big rock song, the track delivers in unexpected ways, from the edgy opening two minutes that alone could serve as the score to a car chase, to the sudden explosion of choirs, blissful harmonies, and larger-than-life chorus. babytalk, who has created quite a buzz with two top-notch releases and is currently the toast of underground dance music and disco heads, remixes the track into something seemingly slower and definitely more sinister

with more then two decades behind the decks, this detroit native has the knowledge and experience to throttle a dance floor. this debut is celebrated with custom packaging designed and illustrated by trench wich expands into a 24 x 36 poster. this pivotal record is a must have for collectors, featuring remixes by pioneers that need no introduction, dj bone, aaron-carl and donna black

limited to 500 copies on coloured vinyl !!! the mysterious intrusion project (feat. on echospace 007) emerges once again and delivers another epic release. throughout the original mix of >tswana dub< you find smooth textured pads and a bassline even the mighty king tubby would surrender to. the melodies evolve in slow motion over time as the synth hits open and close into a fierce midnight skanking session so lo-fi you would think this was recorded at studio 1 in the 1960s. on the flip side brendon moeller serves up heavy bass reductions, live melodicas, brass sections and spatially aware dub fx. the phase90 mix dissects intrusions original into a full spectrum spatial affair as deep as the sea, epic and beautiful...

minimal phreak out strong release by this swedish dream team of clicks n cuts.. after the fantastic gez varley and geoff white releases in the past few months, persistencebit returns strong once more with the swedish minimal techno artists johan skugge and mikael stavöstrand, who work their collaborative gear into a feverish lather on a new trio of high-octane cuts. immaculately constructed and executed with precision, the duos material isnt as skeletal as one might expect-ample noise and commotion appear alongside the tunesgrooves-and, in its acidy moments, pink phantom sometimes sounds like audion, albeit in a slightly less raucous frame of mind

the original track is a sweet poppy bombastic disco-tune with lots of strings brass and vocal. bogdan irkuk & ultracity have created three remixes in total which katapults the song into cosmos and ads that epic electronic disco flavour to it with loads of nice synth pads, solo apreggio breaks vocoders and spaced out leads.

superb reissue of ron trent s all-time deep techno classic altered states. made when he was still school-age, and released in 1990 on armandos seminal warehouse label, this record was an immediate underground club hit, turning ron into a local hero, kickstarting his hugely successful production and djing career and making him probably the only chicago house producer to rate one of the best techno singles of all time! this classic acid workout is stunning in its simplicity and has been described as one of the most perfect and moving tracks ever heard. the other tracks are also very beautiful in their own right despite having been overshadowed by the epic altered states - the afterlife was included on dj hells x-mix-5. all tracks digitally remastered for superb sound quality

luciano rmx !! in anticipation of open wide, his upcoming debut album, we are proud to present the first taste of dave aju’s mouth-based wizardry with >crazy place<. a deep, extended journey into aju’s vision of slow-burning melodic space disco. the warm vibe, building synth lines, and catchy choruses are guaranteed to please. on the flip, we are blessed with a great remix by luciano, who stretches the track out even further, traveling into the sublime musical territory of his finest work, perfectly complimenting the original. a strong and truly balanced 12 with >future classic< written all over it! label standard sleeve / jacket

the chaps at off-key hq have been busy digging out the old dat tapes from their attic and sorting out the wheat from the chaff. for this release they go way back to bring you four more tracks courtesy of kimble, a collaboration between matt o brien and matt gates (aka minor planets). kicking things off is the beatless sketch of >lycius<, spiky alien synths flicker and pierce through detached ethereal pads moving in the surrounding weightless space. next up is the ep s lynchpin track, >state of shock<. proper techno is the order of the day here, this is an authentic old school minimal track first recorded in 1996 but left gathering dust ever since. immerse yourself in the subtle dub inflected melodies swirling in your womb bubble while the slamming rhythm track provides the heartbeat. over on the flip we chill things out with the haunting strings and aquatic bassline of >amb<, providing a delicate counterpoint to the upfront style of the a side. the ep is completed with a stunning remix of >state of shock< by minor planets, who layer on a towering bassline and transform the original into a laid back dub workout.

big with alex picone (cadenza) for phonica records london. the record has already been played by dj s such as james pennington, dj buzz goree (underground resistance) dj jus ed, radioslave, cassy, pacou, mad max, ricardo villalobos, luciano, prosumer, marcel dettmann.... their third ep on there independent label is a manifesto of their purposes: to provide to the dancefloors solid analagoue fat sounds not following the trends but always digging deep into their roots with the eyes on the future. the future is the past and the past is the future. restoration is an anti-digital media corporation who fully believe which the only useful ammunitions for djs are vinyls

x.l.r.8.r., the new label from marc o’tool, sends its second release into the race. as a label pendant to mauritius, which can look back on diverse successful releases such as criss source >hugs’n’kisses<, marc o’tool >the sinner in me< and productions from björn mandry, ballroom and marc vision, the team on x.l.r.8.r. approaches things more technoid, rougher and dirty. after the label premiere >showtime< already secured the label a place among the front starting positions of the techno grand prix and according the motto >never change a winning team<, the second release again counts on the dream-team criss source & marc o’tool

yore returns with a true dream team split ep, pairing yore label head andy vaz with sistrum manager patrice scott. vaz is up first with a beautiful slice of old-school funk and soul within a deep house formula, >back to square one< that has a whole lot more in common with isaac hayes and james brown than with juan atkins or any other techno icon. accompanied by a wah-wah guitar figure and claps, a bullet-proof bass line leads a nine-minute charge thats quickly bolstered by a slinkily swinging drum groove. creamy synth chords and blazing horns intermittently spill over the pulsating mix and then vanish, leaving space for the rhythm to intensify and the track to grow ever more euphoric (and even, towards its close, a bit acidy). a true mission into both funk and house, which again showcases vazs ultimate diversity as an outstanding producer. scott titled his second sistrum release beyond deep and the title might just as easily apply to the b-side >aztecal< where the detroit producer slathers shimmering stabs and congealing streams over a thudding kick drum and flickering percussive detail. while vazs cut draws inspiration from the timeless traditions of decades past, scotts looks towards the future when its gleaming shuttle lifts off in pursuit of distant galaxies.

like a proper immigrant family enjoying the life of culturally greener pastures, the vakant family continues to grow in berlin. closely following the exponential trend of mergers and acquisitions in the multi national corpo borg, vakant heavy industries signs the third in a series of new talent to the team. berlins dewalta a.k.a. david koch, long time friend of vakant, has completed assimilation into the freaky fold. a side salgaro is about as obese as a track can get. its happy, its huge, its pan ethnic, its sensitive, its irreverent. its so good it was immediately used for onur ozers up coming club dj mix cd. on the aa side farina lives. its freakier, its smoother, its quirkier, its cup runs massively over. we are talking insulin shock plump. we cant even identify which genres it spans. it sounds like the amalgamation of everything currently succulent and lots more that will be

1st release on a new spanish label, run by dj link (amigos) - check it out if you are into good grooving harder techno!

nice new berlin label with nice artwork and some sweet cosmic kraut disco. original mix is by grackle (aka galaxy toobin aka smeckulator) who dropped a nice minimalish sahko kind of cut. main tracks are basicly the sweet ass remixes by unit 4 who made a long slowly building track with an electronic kraut rock/disco groove and he managed to take things higher into the comsos as the track develope... nice job! the other very nice remix is by t. keeler who made a more disco-ish affair with nice lush grooves and warm balearic sounds. hot stuff for all the lindstrom, mudd, prins thomas, quiet village fans

played by vera, nekes, raresh, tassilo ippenberg (pan pot), anthony collins, italoboyz, dop, kabuto&koji, federico molinari, reboot, markus fix , sis, lemos , kreon... 3rd instalment of the hyped label. big with all the new school house heads ! here we are for the 3rd release of the masomenos livemix project, croco ep. a-sided >apache-moi< is a tribal yet happy track with nice flutes and big drums. you can picture there desert & dust as for a musical ceremony to pray the gods to let rain fall… on b-side, >pierre & le loup< starts as a journey into the woods on a sunny and nice day, till you can feel the wolf approaching and the pressure rising…nice rolling bass, pumping groove, perfect summer sunrise track. >cherie< is a more laidback and atmospheric b2 track that would fit perfectly for any summer sun-set.

lme starts into the new year... here comes the follow up smasher from luke lawson: >all night long<. dont worry... not just another cover version from an eighties hit. this one is a unique track including a guaranteed summer feeling. the upcoming producer from austria could enlist >the house voice< john whitfield for a cooperation. besides hot rhythms, a pumping bass line and brilliant piano sounds, this track particularly impresses with impulsive vocals and a big remix package with mixes from shootingstarz, lectrostar and falko niestolik & j.k david mix

a seriously heavyweight plate from twisted, a member of germanys acclaimed dutty dubz crew. erratic is a grimey monster of a tune, the subtleties of the intro with its pattering bongos and stealthy pads giving no indication of the carnage to come. dropping harder than a ton of bricks, the filthy buzzsaw bass comes swooping in beneath slamming halfstep beats, squirming between the enormous bashy snares and sinister electro riff topline. on the flipside twisted goes a little more leftfield, tapping into the chiptune flavour thats currently permeating the dubstep scene via the likes of rustie and zomby.

breakin boss ed dmx supplies six tracks of freaked-out modular synth madness mangled through the macintosh into some weird high-velocity electrofunk. edmx is eds alias for the more hard and fast stuff, these tracks are experimental but with lots of sub-bass and high tempo beats with unusual grooves. edmx can be seen performing around the world, recently played in japan with breakin artists ceephax acid crew and also appeared this year at the bang face weekender, the bloc weekend party and will continue to play out globally throughout the summer

first single from the forthcoming album called >toinen< from sasse comes in the form of 2 long, evolving, pulsing deep tracks which bring the finn back into his rootz of house music. big with alex kid, agoria, danny howells, steve bug, mathias kaden, kiki, garnier, jimpster and many many more

daniel mehlhart steps up to the plate for kindischs seventeenth release, origami - an exquisitely deep, languid house jam laced with strung-out, processed spanish guitar and gently euphoric xylophone arpeggios. >origami< is languid, yes, but not exactly laid-back: its held up and propelled forward by a gently vibrating lattice of kickdrum and snare hits, through which a dubby, molten bassline and taut, time-keeping chords dreamily but determinedly flow. the perfect soundtrack to the mixed pace of summers long days and even longer nights. mehlhart harks back to his acclaimed past releases on karmarouge and neutonmusic for >alles klar alles easy<, which sees brushed drum and shaker sounds edited into a quietly explosive techno work-out with serious swing. >fata morgana< begins in a more linear, four-to-the-floor style, but those percussive flourishes quickly accrue into something more strange, and then out of the ether comes an entrancing, south american-style chorus line. the voices mingle imperceptibly with woodblock strikes and caustic snares, injecting the techno dna >fata morgana< with a sick and psychedelic voodoo funk. with this 12inch kindisch once again proves itself to be a preeminent stable for experimental, expressive dancefloor music, and daniel mehlhart affirms his status as one of our most daring and capable producers

after the extremely successful filmmusik ep on rompecabeza, holgi star is back with >not for me<. the ep consists of two tracks with technoid crossover potential! on >not for me< bits of african vocals meet functional techno and seamlessly weave together into a quite sexy and rather danceable number. all the while >dont feel it< coolly, calmly, and with just enough repetition, establishes its class and style without unneeded flourishes. both tracks were extensively tested by the rompe crew at sonar 2008 in barcelona, and reactions spoke of the potential both of the artist and the ep itself!!!

the dirty one slams up the classic dreamer and turns it into a must have summer anthem!! one sided. mickey slim stylee

with already massive support from jocks like technasia, valetino kanzyani, mauro picotto, james kameran and many more chris liebing is starting a new label called spinclub recordings. the first release is by spinclub resident dj emerson, already known for his releases on kiddaz fm and microfon. on this first ep on scr, dj emerson features his familiar dry techno. to the efficiently and solidly working cut the crap on the a-side, he opposes with the spectacular mr. nice on the b-side. mr nice starts off in a restrained way. in the break you could almost think it would lose itself in an ocean of delay, if, yeah if not suddenly this striking bassline would emerge. it starts rolling, turning the track around 180 degrees, transforming it into a rampaging peaktime monster. for the one who wants to put an exclamation mark in his set, voila

the a is from rico & starts with an atmospheric pad and a loop of a vocal snippets, which builds & builds until it drops into techy, dancefloor fueled mayhem! the aa side comes courtesy of nightwalker himself & features the classic nightwalker production, huge ultra catchy bass lines, rollin beats & snares that take your face off.

jerome sydenhams mighty dub remix of hideo kobayashis >the puzzle< is simple energetic and very efficient track. ablaze with stabs and a funky beat it does nothing less than thrown you into a state of tech-house frenzy. jerome sydenham dons his techno hat to express his interpretation of the heart of darkness in >congo<. big kicks, punchy bass lines and a deep house hook make >congo< not only fresh in sydenhams production approach but also very accessible to all those who are tech inclined

morris audio 62 is a joint venture from two of the most outstanding greek producers (em well, living both in berlin now….): ekkohaus and gummihz! and they present what they do best: ekkohaus (hot with his cargo edition release) gives us two great summer tunes, house stylee, with fat bouncing basslines. and gummihz (big with his releases on mobilee) turns >our thing< into a minimal dancefloor smasher – reduced to the max, but adding highlights where necessary, this track will be

komplement recordings is now ready for the second release with 3 great melodic tracks full of harmony! on the a side, ludwig buez deep into the emotional aspect of minimal music, closing your eyes while listening to >losing tears< will let you trip for more than 8 minutes. the b side lovefool is a wonderful after-party track, great for ibizas beaches!! spicy percussions & nord lead chords brings warmth and smiles to the dancefloor. oscar (confused/karate) joined the komplements team with a killer remix where he changed the whole thing to give his personal touch on the record

played by sebo k, karotte... layo and bushwacka! are equally at home turning out summery housey affairs as they are peak time stormers, and >now is the time / the time was then definitely fits into the latter category. a double header, the loose concept behind the release is to represent the sound of the dancefloor now versus the sound from a few years ago. >now is the time< has its feet placed firmly in 2008 - a crisp, clean techno bassline, topped by hand claps, snatches of breathy female vocal, and full of an irresistible array rattles, whooshes and other indefinable sounds that the duo seem to pull from the depths of their imaginations. it breaks with some simple electronic sounding chords and a stirring martin luther king sample that makes this record so memorable. >the time was then< is based around that same sample, but gives a cheeky nod to a few years back, with a bassline and keys that wouldnt have sounded out of place on their seminal ‘night works’ album. it never goes too far towards nostalgia, though, and either would rip up a late night dancefloor

nightmusic kicks off with steve murano, dj and producer in very high demand.route 66 is an electro-house remake with a deep groove that keeps the crowd driving. the rolling beats and the massive synths keep the audience mesmerized on the dance floor, resulting in a cool rocking playback. in addition, the dirty vocals sung by tobias fiedler will screw into every head. also included in this package is a straight le club mix with pumping beats and a catchy hook.

knock knock, bang bang! minimal neo tech drama is just kicking your doors off! 5.4,3.2,1 action! our hommie jurek przezdziecki from warsaw, (poland) - is making his debut on boshke beats records and you better watch it, feel it and be into it! (we will not give you here a death threat ,but we were close to-please admit it) 10 years of producing under the different projects like big wigs, epi centrum and mass turbo! and lately you could taste of his sound on recently released maxis on whirlpoolsex, bretzel, jacek sienkiewiczs recognition and living records and here is his first boshke debut. we highly suggest to watch this interesting producer closer! he manages to seamlessly lead us through his special and unique fusion between minimal techno and neo trance, dressed with his unique sonic synthesises and topped with a top class sound production. on the b-side is a contemporary re-work of the sink master by maestro robert babicz (aka rob acid), speiced with the dancefloor power and a big roberts character this remix destined for all the modern contemproary djs on the planet earth!.

played by afrilounge, chris liebing, d julz, dj emerson, h.o.s.h., holgi star, jesse rose, joel mull, laurent garnier, paco osuna, par grindvik, ripperton, rob mello, solomun, thomas schumacher and others !! alex niggemann has been releasing on labels as diverse as get physical, meerestief, moonpool and sportclub. he impressed the micro.fon guys with his outstanding interpretation of smokemachine, released on the affiliated label freak waves. circles is a wonderful track starting quite easy and developing into a huge anthem with wonderful mars attack sounds and a weird expanding and contracting, analogue-sounding synth-line,...wonderful tune destined to be played out on crazy ibiza partys and drugged-out berlin after hours....cut b1 is the einzelkind (get physical, kindisch, playhouse) rmx, a huge wonderful swinging rhythmic house interpretation fuseing an percussive old school house groove with deep techno chords. b2 comes the funk fueled tech house cut transitions a wonderful late-night-tool with a nice techno appeal and huge soundwork,.... delicate 3 tracker

the legendary johnny dangerous, of beat that bitch fame, returns to nite grooves with another spoken stomper. clear my mind is a dark infectious hook riddled tech track whose remix by japans dazzle drums turns it into a dancefloor frenzy. russian federations techno minimalist & hip hop producers tripmastaz take this tune all the way down to infernal depths creating an almost nightmarish sensation. this aint for the faint of heart but made rather for the dungeon of your dreams

very much in the vein of british exploration into wave and disco this is an odd yet funky mixture of electronics and indie vocals.

trouble in paradise is a pure testament to the roots of r&b flavored vocal house. in the danism vox the sweet simplicity of the standard boom & clap intro is well paced and leads into the funky bassline, while the enchanting chords set the stage for the outstanding vocal performance of sean williams. his r&b flavored, distinctive phrasing is mildly reminiscent of john legend, however, seans earthy quality shines through. the passionate & insistent lyrical melody never fails, climaxing into panoramic bridges while the memorable bah de dahsintermittently dot the production. its texture is a reminder of sophisticated nyc funk a la early 80s prelude/west end/sam records with a modern house feel. djs, if you want the ladies on the floor, trouble in paradise (danism vox) is the one to drop!

fresh from his recent with railyard, poker flat, moon harbour, dessous & compost, new zealand’s simon flower offers his first solo production for the railyard roster. from soulful deep house fusion to moody detroit electro, the sum of us ep is a diverse look into the dynamic range of the most in demand kiwi producer.

great deep journey into space !!!

the new rude awakening album! devoloping a unique dark crossover sound which links to industrial as much as it does to techno and breaks
