on 7th august the godfather mike dunn presents an ep fuelled by a pumping heart of pure house, entitled ‘dj beat that shhh’ / ‘move it work it’. taken from his forthcoming album due for release in october 2017. both tracks capture mike’s essence, placing his trademark hip house booty style vocals and stripped-back, jacking drums centre stage. ‘dj beat that shit’ is classic, bumping 90s chi goodness updated with modern technology, whilst ‘move it, work it’ is a no-nonsence smoke and strobe throbber, that recalls the best of trax and dj international. for anyone who knows their shit, mike should need no introduction, but for those that don’t, he was highly influential in birthing the modern day dance music phenomenon, especially with tracks like ‘face the nation’, ‘god made me phunky’, ‘let it be house’ and ‘personal problem’. mike created hip house, dj’d with fellow legends ron hardy, larry heard and armando gallop, produced for house heroes armando, fast eddie and k-alexi shelby, and worked with the iconic voices of byron stingley and kym english. after a long absence from djing in europe, mike returned in 2015 to rock crowds at panorama bar, fabric, concrete, sub club and glastonbury, demonstrating why the chicago og is still very much in demand.

get ready for some true wonkiness, courtesy of neil landstrumm.
this is techno purely for those rock-solid psyches who lack that element of the deranged, the off­-kilter and the strange - on the dancefloor and in their own mental constitution. if you’re even slightly in doubt of your sanity, stay well clear of this cut.
the fact that he’s been using elektron instruments probably means it’s even more important to have that straightjacket at the ready. even that won’t stop you from dancing, though. neil has been making wonky techno since antiquity, hell, he’s the progenitor of the genre, but what you probably didn’t know is that he’s also been doing graphics for rockstar games, the software house that brought you grand theft auto.
he’s been a skilled elektron user from the very beginning, from the high and far­ times of the sidstation.

after two years of colaborations and remixes, secret cinema is finally back with a solo ep. we think it has been worth the wait. artwork in charcoal and paint by everything is visible. after two years of releasing collaborations and remixes, jeroen secret cinema verheij returns with a solo ep. the amsterdam based techno producer has never been one to copy others with many timeless classics to his name. he pushes himself to write music that sounds different while at the same time appealing to the often large crowds he plays for. after two years of searching, the peaces fell into place. with sÚance ep verheij has ushered in a new creative era for himself. sÚance ep is trippy, complex, strange and powerful. secret cinema proves once again that he is one of those artists who really knows how to bring machines to life.

ltd re:issue ... pgh guys drop their debut album, focused on the dancefloor & sequenced for those whose favorite dancefloor is at home, putting their distinctive spin on house, techno, electro, & disco. warm, inviting, & perfect for the summer months ahead.

alex tsiridis of cassegrain debuts on avian as rhyw. the extended ep, which represents the second outing for tsiridis under this moniker, sees the british producer pit a handful of elastic dance-floor workouts alongside a pair of more experimental, ambient reductions. despite careful processing rendering them decidedly monochrome, the dance-floor recordings maintain a curious colour and musicality. lead synth sequences drive much of the work, ducking in and out of the sonic backwater with considerable dynamism – almost hook-like in their execution, sharpened with ample distortion and melding with intricate drum work to create subtle shifts in tone and energy that propel the work forward. whilst reduced in it’s elements, like much of the best of the genre – the music sees those elements hard at work. tsiridis places atypical focus on groove, eschewing a more linear approach in favour of a kind of greyscale funk that finds its potency in the contrast between components. ‘iroquois’ and ‘aversion two’, the beatless compositions that appear on the ep isolate the ambient constituents of the work – with tonal nods to drone and noise musics whilst managing to hold on to the clandestine tunefulness that runs through the whole body of work.

with the 3-track ep mantra joix opens a new dimension in his electronic music. for the first time he uses his own voice on a larger scale, giving it a machine-like sound that transforms and heightens the meaning of his german words.

the lead track -mantra- refers to the techno movement in germany in the 90s, which joix lived and breathed as a teenager. those mystical experiences staying awake all night in rooms full of light and sound ÔÇ came close to the trance states attained by chanting mantras. this is the main idea and the emotional inspiration behind this pulsating a-side track.

a touch of nostalgia also comes through -w?ñchter der nacht-. this tune channels the mysterious night, the search for ecstasy and self-dissolution in music clubs protected by the guards of night. finally, klimax is a dancefloor banger that distinguishes itself by whipping up immense energy, and its space-filling melody and enormous hall cascades.

at last! the full 12:45 john morales mix of this underground boogie classic gets the proper vinyl release it has always deserved! all those discogs cowboys can now safely crawl back under their stones! replicating the original 1982 12”, except this one doesn’t fade out a minute and a half before the end. the original flipside is present, only this time cut at 45rpm for higher audio resolution. available from 14-07-2017. this release is (i think!) the first time all twelve minutes and forty-five seconds have been pressed on wax (in an ultra limited quantity) so don’t miss it, steven!

one half of the junior boys, jeremy greenspan makes his second appearance on jiaolong with the aid of none other than legendary, algorithmic composer, laurie spiegel. those not familiar with her work, spiegel is best known for her use of interactive and algorithmic logic as part of the compositional process, spiegel worked with buchla and electronic music laboratories synthesizers and subsequently many early, often experimental and prototype-level music and image generation systems. in the mid 80s, her most widely used software was the music mouse. here, greenspan works her piece >drums< into a confident dj tool, rolling steadily with angular electronic effects over a solid, weighty pulse. >sirius shake< employs a classic kompakt-style schaffle beat, mapping a curious robotic waltz.

belgian producer krewcial is one of those producers who flits in and out of activity, and has done so since the mid 90s. lumberjacks in hell have called upon this slippery character to lay down some righteous grooves for their latest missive, and the results are sublime. -2u- is funky house how it should be done, all stomping drums, dreamy pads and soulful licks for the party people in the place. -heal- takes a more edited approach, holding back the bass for the ultimate dancefloor payoff. -hit me off- ramps up the jazzy keys for a detroit flavoured looped up throwdown, and then -the session- fires off one last sumptuous rip through peak time perfection

ian blevins has been busy making a name for himself on esp institute and futureboogie, but now he comes to not an animal with a slightly different approach that still speaks to the skills the upstart producer has in his sonic arsenal. -the birds- is a focused, steady-tracking cut for the deeper end of the night, but there s some serious weight in those drums and the heavily processed vocal snippets pack plenty of malaise. man power then step up with a -tropical bastard- remix of the original, cracking the curtains to allow a little light into the mix but stopping short of over-cooking the mood. -locate yourself- on the flip finds blevins in tracky techno mode, and it turns out it s a style he can nail just as easily as the more organic tones he s known for.

harrison bdp steps up for the inaugural release from artesian sounds kicking things off with one of harrison’s most anticipated tracks to date. “it’s foggy outside” has been rescued from the confines of the world wide web remastered and revamped to finally get its first taste of wax. foggy had everyone grooving from the get go and now will hit harder and deeper every time.
the flip sees harrison showing off his knack for the garage shuffle and straight-up, no fuss, late night bangers. roberto s wraps things up providing his own playful rendition of the a-side track, building on those blissful chords with crystal clear arps and a bounding rhythm. a perfect summer’s day encapsulated...

third stream is the new project developed by alex font and it is dedicated specially for the real diggers. this record hardly has any promotion in order to preserve the music to those who invest buying the music and dig deeply. no promo pools, no soundcloud, no facebook fan page or shit like that. we could call this a true only vinyl record with just 150 copies.

with spring well and truly in the air and party season in step, mosaic records boss steve o sullivan launches mosaic s 38th release - joining forces with fellow londoner frazer campbell for a new studio collaboration. not content with letting the dust settle from his recent work alongside ricardo villalobos, o sullivan has stayed a little closer to his london home to work with frazer campbell for this latest tag team effort. a dextrous hand in the mix and producer in his own right, campbell has a passion for all things that sit on the deeper end of the house, techno and electronica spectrum. in his own words, thought emoting music is central to his mission having launched open recordings and elliot project records last year: a worthy sparring partner indeed. since the start of the year, the pair had their heads down focusing on finding a happy medium between deeply swung grooves and the airy influences of detroit - shaking out an interesting trio of tracks for their label debut. far from treading the obvious path, the main event a1 hypnotonic revels in a lighter touch as metronomic beat programming cycles endlessly to a held set of notes. off-kilter bass pulses, warped out vocals and effect splashes all intersect to keep the energy input constant as they capture one of those less frenzied moments where the very notion of time seems to hold still. make no mistake, this is a slow burn vibe. head to the flipside b1 soultonic to plunge yourself straight into hip twitching mode when the lights go down. a deep chord, syncopated hats and deftly tweaked synths echo as a full dose of shuffle inflicts its move. simple yet so effective, this track will not let you down. winding things back up a touch, the tougher edge of alleyway funk pushes the feeling on thanks to a thumping kick and a deft nod towards uk garage. met with a soft glisten of a rhodes piano and tweakish melody, the pair round things off in a boyant mood - fans of soul capsule and schatrax will no doubt agree. repeat play of this ep is recommended as its all the more rewarding for it.

munich s counterweight is back with some serious stuff from the hands of gonzo mdf. the second vinyl release of the label cuts it straight to the point: this is techno for the dancefloor without compromise. the madness starts with -don t trust those who talk so much- with its acid touch and rough atmosphere. in a2 endlec translated the track into his own language: beast-techno. in -destroy- gonzo mdf finds the perfect balance between melancholy and aggressive percussion and -we didn t give up- is the perfect way to round up the release. so... we let them talk and we keep on working .

paul hester created his cult moon music label in 1997 as a portal for his own productions and sounds. the label was short-lived, with only 3 releases in it s catalogue, all produced by hester himself. those few releases on moon are now highly sought after among house and techno aficionados who are forever seeking that deeper groove. the interesting part of this story, beyond the amazing music that was released, is that there are many other tracks that never saw the light of the day, thus leaving the full moon story untold. roll on to the year 2000, hester unleashes the never enough ep, a 4 track collection of tracks that ooze his own unique sound. deep, rolling, crisp drum programming, breakbeats and swelling synth pads all form the classic moon music vibe. this fully remastered reissues tracks are all lovingly transferred from paul hester s private, personal dat stash. classic, deep uk techno sounds from the pre-millenium era, re-presented for the first time for 2017s dancefloors. across this ep we are treated to a sound that is timeless and will undoubtedly gain paul hester new fans while reminding those of us who were there in the late 90s / early noughties about his subtle and uniquely fresh production style.

udacha just gets better and better with every release, branching out into ever more exciting shapes and styles beyond their house and techno foundations. on this album from indoor plants, wild fourth world visions collide with hardware processes in a dazzling display of transcendental music for those who like their thought-provoking tunes to pack a punch. the likes of -targitaus- deconstruct club music conventions in a quest for new rhythmic purpose, and yet the soundsystem pressure is expertly sculpted out of the daring shape of the music. elsewhere there s surrealism in abundance, as on the wonderfully weird -hunch-, and that s just scratching the surface of this truly essential lp.

legendary nitsa club from barcelona comes back releasing new music fifteen years after their first venture with nitsa recordings. the new label is called nitsa traxx. the essence is not to focus in a particular sound, but try to cover all the range of styles you can usually listen to in this acclaimed club. besides that, the main idea is pretty simple: the a side includes the original track and the b side comes with a remix. first release comes from valencian producer daniel kyo. after releases in drumpoet and bordello a parigi, on this occasion kyo dives into deep techno with a nostalgic hint to ebm. “nacht drei” sounds like one of those tracks from the infamous ruta del bacalao, but with a very nowadays production. sharp and hypnotic, but with a certain sense of epic humor. valencia style. on the flip, marc piñol remixes the original track and makes it sound blurry, obsessive, fast and mental. inspired by his legendary warmups in nitsa club, expect nothing more and nothing less that a simple but not-so-simple mixing tool with a personal touch. one of those long tracks for djs who just love to make lingering transitions to flip out the crowd. nitsa traxx will come back very soon with new music from people related to the club. family and friends. look forward to some surprises for the upcoming releases!

re issue of timmy thomas s long sought after -afrcaino- 12- excavated from the deepest realms of the tk disco vaults. when it comes to this deep disco cut, africano is one of those tracks that became a dancefloor favorite of danielle baldelli who during the 80s played disco, african records, american r&b, and reggae to create what has been since become known as the afro-cosmic scene at the height of club culture in the discotheques of northern italy. remastered, represented and brought back into focus for 2017 s dj bags and dance-floors! as usual, these tk represses are always done in the proper manner. 100% legit re-edits, from the archive, remastered and released in conjunction with henry stone music / tk disco - miami fl.

few artists can claim to have their own distinctive “musical voice”: a style of composition and production that listeners instantly recognize. for starters, it takes years of experimentation to perfect, and most people simply don’t have the patience, talent or skills to pull it off.
ali kuru is one of those rare producers whose music sounds like nothing else around. the istanbul-based artist has spent the best part of a decade honing his trademark style – a fragrant and intoxicating aural brew that combines a myriad of influences with atmospheric field recordings and snaking, mind-altering middle eastern instrumentation – via releases for the likes of luxa flex, kalisah, sound architecture and, most recently, leng.
it’s to the latter label that the publicity-shy producer returns with his most ambitious release to date, egzotik. 15 tracks and 70 minutes deep, it’s not so much a debut album as a statement of intent. from start to finish, it feels like a humid, sweat-soaked saunter through the winding streets of istanbul in the company of a musician who draws more inspiration than most from his immediate surroundings.

half baked resident greg brockmann teams up with good friend odd soul under the moniker oddmann to present their first release on half baked records. bringing three tracks of dark, driving but groovy minimal techno, the boys are bringing a new flavour to the half baked label. these two have really been working hard in the studio and that is evident across the release as they provide something for those dimly lit dancefloors with big sound. this is some serious heads-down trippy music to lose yourself within!

what is there to say about the difference ? this is how it should be done - deep, with soul and conveying a message, house music doesn t get any realer, any purer. logic, a collaborative effort between wayne gardiner, roger sanchez, vivian sessoms and eddie maduro unleashed this monolithic slab of music on the world in 1990. truly streets ahead this record helped carve a new sound, a new feeling in dance music. oozing with human emotion and feeling the difference is one of those records that honestly warrants the title of classic . it s b side i got somethin is a slinky, late night groove that recalls smoky, sweaty dance-floors and is all the better for it, this is the real deal for real. yet another solid, essential release from the mighty strictly rhythm vaults, sounding as important, fresh and incredible as it did on it s initial release. house music history brought back into view for lucky ears and feet in 2017. the difference has been skilfully remastered from all original master sources and fully licensed and reissued officially for 2017.

brs were a uk house outfit who released between 2000-2008 on their own imprint friends & families & on many other labels including 2020 vision, cyclo & imperial dub - the group comprised of rob evans, ben vacara & mr mulatto (the 2x latter now members of the situation collective). lovin me was first released on a brs ep on imperial dub recordings back in 2000. in its original format the 12- included the original mix, dubtribe sound system remix and a bonus track bouncing. situationism are delighted to re-release the incredible full length dubtribe soundsystem remix again on limited vinyl. this remix became a classic, appearing on numerous compilations including groove armada s another late night and ministry of sounds chillout sessions 2004 to name but a few. included on this limited vinyl run will be 2x new remixes from italian deep house, motorbike duo harley & muscle & the also the lovely bittersuite, both delivering quality mixes. all brought to you in time for those long summer evenings!

nice price deal !!! jazzmin records gives the the horses a chance to set the record straight by releasing the real acid village. acid village now comes in an exclusive vinyl mix with an extra analog flavor. on the flip, housekeeping is a preview from the horses forthcoming album. this track has been played by a few deejays and a fair amount of cleaning-ladies around the world. and to show you how much we love those tracks we pressed them onto a gorgeous red vinyl that will match your shoes so well

one of the current techno scene’s ‘hidden treasures’, bristol based a sagittariun has discretely released a wide breadth of music over the last five years for labels like secretsundaze, hypercolour and his own elastic dreams label. two highly acclaimed albums in “dream ritual” and “elasticity” as well as fifteen eps have appealed to those who like their techno without frontiers, taking in blistering 140bpm techno, breakbeat idm and ambient dub with ease. his second release for hypercolour displays signs of crossover appeal at long last… lead track “vanishing point” has already been receiving early plays from the likes of laurent garnier (dropping it in his recent timewarp germany set), spencer parker and len faki. big pumping beats and spiralling fx fall aside to a lone breakbeat that ushers in one pretty special breakdown section. the childlike keys and fathoms deep synth stabs (straight out of the john carpenter school of fathoms deep synth stabs) have already drawn comparisons to the retro 80s vibes to be heard on the american sci-fi horror series stranger things. it’s a breakdown that takes the listener to an uncharted dimension, bookended by slammin’ beats that acts as a perfect mood changer in any set. watch this one soar! “the pathway” keeps things on an all together straighter tip, an incessant tribal loop weaves and filters around a thunderous kick and shuffling hats, ebbing and flowing all the way in what might be a sagittariun’s most club-centric and stripped back production yet. matrixxman (dekmantel/spectral sound) is on hold to deliver a superb remix, pushing the original down a long dark tunnel for a growling and reverberating techno overhaul

time for a little neck bulging, slimy skin hip-slinking summer fun as a true craftsman steps from the studio shadows: jay shepheard, who’s back with a track that’s so infectious if you licked its back you’d trip for weeks. prepare yourselves for ‘bullfrogging’: wry funk, warmth and humanised technoid soul. taking a vocal texture then processing, harmonising and splicing the spawn out of it, jay’s precision balance of electronic hustle and anthromorphised action has all the hallmarks for a summer anthem. ‘early doors’ follows suit and there’s a massive clue in the title… soft-focused, warm, rolling and laced with textured chimes, it’s definitely tailored for those key transitions between warm-up and second gear. deep, trippy but coded with a hookiness that grabs rather than soothes, once again it’s classic shepheard but with a revitalised 2017 twist. hey, he didn’t lock himself away in the studio for twelve months for nothing, right? neither did jay’s long-time friend and neighbour mark henning, a man who hasn’t taken on a remix since the early 2010s. his return to the remix game is as poignant and powerful as jay’s return to releases as he removes around 70 percent of the frog and maximises the bullishness of the elements, creating a relentless tribal slammer of a version that still retains the warmth and soul of jay’s original. two returns to action, three killer tracks, one label you can always count on as your friend and no frogs harmed during the whole process. we’re pulling out some serious stops here.

here it is! some brand-new wax for your listening pleasure! the days are becoming longer, summer is just around the corner, and our latest release appears to perfectly embody the spirit of something new, something fresh, and something exciting. indeed, we’ve combined all this into a single 12” featuring the likes of satl & electrosoul system, and invadhertz. the release is all about good mood and chilled vibes, and virtually anything you can tag with the liquid label (if you really need to). but categories aside, our new twelve incher comes with a superb collab between satl & electrosoul system on one side, and with a solid track by the upcoming collective of invadhertz on the flipside. the former, entitled “satless”, is a warm, vocal-infused gentle roller that seems to be best enjoyed in the sunny days to come, while the latter, named “lily”, offers a nice combination of a bit rougher percussion section and booming bassline enriched with even more of vocal inserts. all in all, the whole single is a tasty treat for all those into the lighter side of drum & bass.

2017 repress on clear vinyl incoming!
teste’s -the wipe- should need no introduction to those well versed in techno history. first appearing on richie hawtin’s seminal probe label in 1992, -the wipe- and it’s associated mixes literally took dancefloors by storm. 22 years later, and edit select summons this classic once again for an impeccable remix that maintains the force of the original while adding a decidedly contemporary touch. on the flip, teste return after 21 year hiatus to team up with edit select himself for the immaculate -ascend-.

we follow up our debut release by stl with a dancefloor oriented ep by scotsman cain. for those new to cain, a regular on highlife records (a sub-label of huntleys & palmers), you have been missing out. he’s known for fusing his love of traditional music from around the world with infectiously rhythmic drum pattern writing, stand-out melodies and futuristic bass work. and this release is no different. seeing as we are a record label based in the middle east, cain jumped on the opportunity to dig for arabic influenced drums and rhythms to build the ep around. the results are dope! and just in time for the summer season.

berlin based arttu has been dropping his dusty fat beats across numerous techno labels including philpot, clone and 4lux for a few years but it was 2016’s track ‘hoodies’ on arttu’s own imprint cyblo that caught the attention of accidental label boss matthew herbert (and which remains firmly in herbert’s record bag). arttu was invited onto the accidental jnr roster and has delivered a chunk of techno with so much swing it made donkey kong blush. arttu takes the most simple of jazz bass hooks and loops across a rigid kick, it’s when those hats kick in that the groove goes fucking wild. the presence of us native roberto q ingram on vocals brings a full detroit gangster flavour to the party. initially arttu and roberto had an idea to record a simple and sweaty track with roberto on the mic and arttu at the control of some dusty old machines. the result, ‘bass trakk’ is exactly that: roberto dropping lyrics over a raw beat and a massive bassline. the ep is rounded off with a deep bit of techno ‘debris’ with all the trappings of the darkest hour of a berlin winter in which it was recorded.

sex. sorrow. synthesizers. digital romance are a french duo cast in the mould of vintage electro pop. their sound echoes those halcyon days but is firmly set with an eye on the future. vocals, from marie de berlin, are deep, inviting and rich. tracks tell of lost loves, forlorn figures hoping to find solace in the cold and calculated world we inhabit. sparkling synthwork, care of forgotten illusions, perfectly matches those breathy lyrics, catchy hooks ensnaring hearts and minds as they spiral through the dancefloor of their lives.

swayzak returns with gestures of a sycophant. after a back catalogue of severely epic proportions (the seminal album snowboarding in argentina for example), a legendary fabric residency & mix cd, and a relationship with tresor that spawned epic gigs and an lp, not to have released a record since 2012 is nothing short of criminal. 2017 then sees beatnik boulevard deliver two long overdue tracks of those big room stylings that has become synonymous with the name swayzak . even as you succumb to the bass pressure, the oceans of detail and programming flourishes that only come with decades spent in those worldwide techno bunkers bring to mind the pedigree of this release. it was once declared that swayzak is a techno dinosaur - looking back that seems a justified moniker to go with the guttural, brobdingnagian sounds of these compositions. slow moving though the spawning may have been, the monster has once again awakened.

end to end, back to back solid gold soul & funk bombs are what s contained on this slab of wax! that s right, gwen s 1979 lp has lashings of dope drums, wriggly bass synths, brass and of course, that voice! absolutely stellar tracks on here - all this love that i m giving - famously sampled by cassius on their infamous smash feeling for you is actually the album opener! the whole album unfolds from this point and we re treated to the classy, string laden i can only think of you next. all in all this album has always been one of those rare lp s that has soul fans frothing at the mouth, traditionally a very tough one to track down and always commanding high prices on the collectors market. released on tk disco s cat offshoot label and produced by the equally legendary betty wright (!) this is one sure shot that you ll need on your shelf and on your turntable if you re into this kind of flavour!

rune returns on his own drum island imprint, this time very ably assisted by uk house turned ambient ambassador chris coco weekend billionaires, in its original form is a delightfully lolloping balearic builder. the chris coco sunshine mix immerses those guitar licks and synth pads in a sea of dubbed out, ultra-violet light. already rumoured to be included on harvey s eagerly awaited mercury rising comp. anton klint (tryck & ton / public possession) steps up on the flip with a no-less psychedelic, but decidedly more laser-lit interpretation. finally alta lab wraps things up with a pacier interpretation, housing up the elements into a hypnotic, emotive rendition

the second release from producer eomac’s new dublin-based label eotrax comes from nomadic irish producer lair. this is an exciting step for the label, moving away from the dancefloor into more diverse, eclectic territory. lair is a producer far from the norm, especially for those releasing on an electronic music label. she classifies herself as a composer, producer, vocalist, artist, sound-healer and yoga teacher. with a diverse background that includes singing classical and traditional material shes expanded her artistic approach into a diverse web-like multi-disciplinarian approach in keeping with her nomadic life. currently she creates electronic music, contemporary classical music and healing music under a variety of alias including laura kilty and luminousounds (for healing music). she is also in the duo noeverything with eomac. in her words my lair music is how i see the world - this one and others channeled - expressed through layers of my vocals which i shape electronically. the music has elements of mysticism, sacred geometry, energy, sound with intention and just sounds i love formed to make music i love. i see music as i create it. i work with lots of layers - for me its like creating an aural representation of the image i see. these layers of sound can be found in her debut self-titled ep in the deep, ritualistic drones of invoke and meld on the a-side, and the more concise rhythmical patterns of searching in circles on the flip.

romanian talent suolo presents may be for lokomotiv’s first official release.
cosmic frequencies induce an intergalactic trip as may be transports us into space, while complete paranoia aims for those special fast-paced moments on the dancefloor after-hours.
romanian duo sit (cristi cons & vlad caia) add colour to the stripped down beauty of may be with their interplanetary interpretation, featuring suolo’s signature dreamy soundscapes and bouncy rhythms. the remix is driven by a deep-toned bassline while more otherworldly elements web together an out of body experience that we know you will enjoy.
the release has received early support from raresh, barac, dubtil, arapu and cezar to name a few, mesmerising dancefloors and generating a wave of hype in romania and around the world.

pt.ii sees tale of us collaborating with ovend, a french producer whose only prior output is a pair of eps for amandra s ahrpe label. mathew jonson, hunter/game and keith carnal are also among those making their afterlife label debut, while recondite, woo york and aether are back after previously appearing on the label.

this double-pack cymbolic originally came out in 1995 and found favour with electronic music fans who sought a deeper edge in their music. it s all here, the trademark drum programming, the epic sense that all of the burden bros productions have within them. this is dancefloor music, music for dj s to utilise, tools, but tools with the deepest soul imaginable. listen to terraforming or the symbiont - perfect examples of driving, almost tribal-esque rhythms fused with strings, synth pads and human feeling. cymbolic is for you if you re a fan of detroit techno, but it s also for those who enjoy the deepest electronic sounds. that s not to say it isn t funky though, these tracks will decimate most dance-floors, and therein lies the secret. essential

khidja are back on malka tuti and this combo cannot and will not dissappoint. after their successful debut on john talabot s hiverndiscs, khidja continue their current direction of leftfield-club music exploration, this time in the form of microb, a track that is a wolrd of its own, fusioning heavy industrial vibes with their own take of -worldly music- to create this peak time dancefloor bonanza. on the flip side salon des amateurs tolouse low trax delievers two takes on the original track, stripped down and turned upside down, adding those massive vocals. these takes are hypnotic as they are groovey and they complete a unique package for the modern dance floor explorers.

nice price deal !!! you write it house tribal but you read it congaman! once again he is ready to give us strong emotions, especially for those ones who like to live it in a sparkling and happy way!

there are many ways for a band or an artist to compile an album: some make it in a week and some let the process go on longer. the latter approach does often mean that that the record will not be better than had it been recorded and mixed within a short amount of time, rather the contrary. however, there are those albums that just could not be made within in a week or a month, those compilation of songs that needed the time to melt together to form an album. fontäns third album titled fontän, released on hoga nord rekords is that kind of an album. put the opening track mangsebung on, then stay with the record until the closer shadows rings out and you will go clear, sharp, and mildly messed up by the listening experience because this is an extremely well directed trip in mind-altering music! this album needed time to reach such heights.

nice price deal !!! big support from: laurent garnier – >pretty galaktic.. pretty moody< hammered by: deetron, angel molina, ripperton, hiroshi watanabe aka kaito, dan curtin – >the ashing mix brings a strong future < tribal groove that is really in line with what i like to play these days. hypnotic, thick, and full of suspense, perfect for creating tesnion and atmosphere on the floor. kubik is one that is perfect for those very late or very early sets.. also fabric just licensed mogdax track >kubik< for the forthcoming fabric 37: steve bug mix album

the latest vinyl only entry on infuse finds karousel stepping up for production duties. outback is first a tripped out female vocal imbuing the track with a distinctly hypnotic vibe for those late night sessions that s already seen label head enzo siragusa drop it on amnesia s terrace to great effect. jungle heat ups the energy with a raw house groove whilst coastin heads up the flip with a deeper melodic groove before label favourite seb zito takes on outback , harnessing london s underground with breakbeats and a steppers b-line.

braiden s material has been slow to come out since he first landed with a bang on doldrums back in 2010. a turn on rush hour confirmed his status as a producer in command of the chops necessary to get a dancefloor shaking, but this years x years in london ost cassette was a chance for him to expand into more experimental pastures. not so on this new 12inch for his off out label, which finds braiden turning up the heat with some fiercely modern tech house workouts. v.o.l.a.t has the same kind of dangerous earworm armour that made paul woolfords erotic discourse so potent all those years ago. hydroplane meanwhile takes some of the crisp but playful tropes of pearson sound et al and straps them to a thrumming motorik beat

here again another japanese artist does his debut release on bosconi extra virgin, daisuke kondo from okayama drops a delicious 4 tracks ep featuring a special reinterpretation from italian duo nas1, not new to the bosconi fam, who also appeared on wild oats and more recently released on berlin label money sex. -roof dancer ep- starts with the subtle and hypnotic house jam of -everybody-, a groovy and bouncey deep house track enriched with funky elements and delayed keys going all along the track, in real daisuke s trademarked style.on a side second cut there s the -roof dancer- tune who gives the title to the ep, a funky and extra warm broken beat jam dense of organic latin percussions and jazzy vibes..and it feels like a real band jamming on a beach! nas1 rework for -exit- opens the b side with a pumping, tribalish and unconventional freestyle jazz-house jam for your freaked out moments on the floor or even a -stand up!- track for your opening sets, something for theo s fan..the ep ends with the chuggy beat of -passion-, a track which reminds some of best moodymann s classic atmospheres or even those soulful loungey tunes from the late 90 s. tasteful beats for your summer!

the countdown has begun! polish mastermind kuba sojka digs into his wide repertoire of influences to bring us this latest release on cosmic club. each of the 4 tracks is distinctly unique, standing out from one another through kuba s varied uses of synths and percussion. -countdown- is reminiscent of those early detroit movements in techno and electronica, instantly reminding me of the likes of dopplereffekt, which is certainly no bad thing. the vibe of -getaway- is exactly as the name would suggest, pumping arpeggiated synths accompanied by piercing snares that evoke images of a neon-drenched, italo-fueled 80 s action film. try and not feel energised to this, we dare you. on the flip, -ego- scratches the itch for something deep, filtered sounds galore with a bit of that garagey swing. rounding off, -everything will be ok- drops the tempo and commences the much-needed cleansing after the pure energy that has come on the track before, this is my new 5am watch-the-sun-rise tune. kuba knows and delivers with this essential record! as usual : vinyl only.

elizabeth merrick-jefferson is one of those artists who seem low-key. theres not a lot of information about her, if any, except for the existence of the first two records and a lone interview. one released in 2013 and the other in 2014. listening to either record tells you her music might be a lot of things, but low-key isnt one of them. powerful and colourful, direct, and with 313 references embedded in its dna, she pulls it off with style. elizabeths third record is no exception. it has found its home on our mothership label, burek. three happiness is tailor-made for the dance floor. it wont leave anyone with a pulse standing. playful synths, wonderful strings, and infectious groove make it impossible to ignore. knowledge revolution is layered and paced, painting a somewhat different picture. melancholy and a sense of mystery envelop this track, whose leitmotif vocal appears just frequently enough to provide insight into the title. the last track of this ep is fittingly titled noctilucent clouds. its a drumless track with a rhythmic main synth counterpointed by sounds which give off the impression of clouds shining through the darkness of winter nights. another amazing release from burek.

photic fields usher a new name into the fold, switzerland s contra communem opinionem aka cco. the lux rec and mathematics alumni arrives with the road to the stars, five tracks of his trademark acid elegance. the ferocity of the 303 has been sheathed, percussion pared down with lush chords and deep warmth being the focus. house is the foundation from which cco builds. those time honoured sounds support cascading melodies and fragile keys for a 12- that borders between armchair abstraction, floor funk and the night sky.

transit records 005, -without end hours“, comes loaded with phat, but definitely distinct dancefloor bangers that take the title of the ep quite literally. they cover a full night (and day) out in the club, and range from dark, technoish house („when your groove is mine-), over uplifting re-interpretations of classic house anthems (-without end hours-), and dystopian tech-house (negativ dekadent remix), through to sizzling after hour house (zuckermann remix). ryoma sasaki’s originals show his love for classic electronic music blueprints and how he is able to turn them creatively into something compellingly fresh and contemporary. it feels like listening (and dancing) to something you know, but not from the past, more so from the now. and while they wonderfully work in that now of the night, negativ dekadent turns this familiar feeling into an uneasiness with the future, only to make you forget about it in the abyss of his beats and overwhelming synth patterns just before the morning breaks. finally, zuckermann fully beams you into the slightly distorted new world you might find yourself in anyway at 11 am on a beautiful sunny morning on one of those (berlin) dancefloors.
