deep grooving soulful, a little detroit/techy edged house number. martin solveig works the track into a tribalistic electrofunker. flip for 2 excellent greenskeepers mixes, who add their trademark sounds and chicago vibes. a must have

two heavy bass loaded dancefloor smasher >> electro nu skull breaks mixture. the original utilizes the vocal hook >this is fucked up man!<, laced on top of crisp 4/4 electro beats with a booming kick and wide hand claps. the bass is bottom heavy, and the distorted leads scream at you, as this one lines up to pound through club speakers and into your eardrums.

next hypnotical gel abril two tracker !! on the a-side, >200 grams< cannot be the weight of this heavily bouncing and hypnotizing tune. with a distinctive quirky line and a heavily bouncing groove like we are used from gel abril, “200 grams” keeps you moving all the way up to the main break, and then takin you back into the dubby old school groove. if the a-side was freaky and bouncing, well the ep title-track >your face is a mess< on the b-side can only be descibed as a dirty mindblowing minimal/tech house track with a druggy vocal all over and a very stripped down synth line

this newcomer already appeared on cardiac arrest, definition of mayhem and beast and shows an impressive capability to channel his bad tempers and aggressive moods into various tracks. this stuff will make your hair go up and for a couple of minutes you will experience what its like to chow down a portion of hallucinating mshrmz whilst suffering from a serious case of malaria fever!

dimi angélis & jeroen search. both artists are among the few internationally acclaimed techno artists from the netherlands. their dj activity and production work reaches back into the early nineties. >the new frontier< melds the firmness and determination of old school techno with a contemporary subtlety. it is amazing how few elements jereon search and dimi angélis need to create a dense and compelling athmosphere. >lunar< is the kind of track that slips perfectly in a wide range of club sets. while it offers the dj a vast span of possible connections to other music, its hypnotic melody does not leave your head for hours. >jupiter< is bolder, it is centered around a demanding groove. while the melodies operate in the background of the track, the complex net of rhythmic patterns shifts indistinguishably. it is the type of music which holds you in a tight grip - and you are not even able to tell what exactly is so striking about it. its implicitness makes >the new frontier< such a special record. it belongs to the rare breed of music which does not demand to go into your box - and this is exactly why it is made to stay there for quite some time

a slammin 2 tracker that should see him propel into 2008, a chunkier proggy house journey with its undelying grooves!!

the title track recalls those half forgotten dreams of positivity and optimism inspired by early us house music… a nostalgic arrangement of arpeggiated synths, high string lines, analogue drum machines and a 1980s vintage, new order like stepped bassline. housemuzik 1.2,3 takes us into much dark territory, dragging a similar palette of sounds into a dense psychedelic mix of acid guitar, pitched down demonic vocals and disorientating spacial effects. dont listen to this with the lights off! fajr dub is an epic, stoned dub collage built around classic space echo delay & feedback tricks, spectral voices and a shifting synth bass pattern, all underpinned by a soft pulsing backbone reminiscent of rhythm & sound productions.

on remix duties this time we have the mighty drumsound & bassline smith combo. the original was screaming out for a d&b rework and we were more than stoked when they agreed to treat it. they extract the essence of what makes the original so good, making it their own stepping up a gear from 128 to 160bpm and into the future.

from the four corners of the globe (sort of) comes a collection of some of the hottest club bangers 130bpm has ever seen. first up is dangerous in the 80s from kid who (brixton) who managers to unite the strange pairing of calvin harris and busta rhymes to make an old school electro tinged post classic combination. t wrecks (toronto) is next out the box with stabs, cut ups and the think break that turns timbalands tune into a baltimore anthem. estaw (amsterdam) takes the hip hop anthem of all hip hop anthems, breaks it down, builds it up, bobs, weaves, throws a right hook, throws some ds on it and throws the dance into a frenzy. last but not least, jim sharp (london / toronto) re animates talib kwelis ode to the fairer sex into a fidgety, bumpy, electro slab of sound that makes feminine undergarments moist.
