advanced underwater electronics by dj stingray. known for his collaborations with drexciya (as the official drexciyan dj), and also know for his works with carl craig (on retroactive and planet e as urban tribe) and his collabs with old time friends moodymann and more of the detroit house producers. this is some deep almost industrial electro techno from the motor city and stingray presents another double pack (after his release on richard james rephlex label recently) with some raw, no nonsens dark shit from a dark (and some say doomed) city!!

two key players of the scene join forces on figures sixteenth release. no one else than adam beyer and luke slater contribute tracks to this very special ep. mod by luke slaters planetary assault systems project takes off with a fast, breathless groove. its force drags the dancers along, and the mesmerizing bleeps put everybody in a deep trance. within seconds, the solid ground of the dancefloor is nothing but a remote memory. mod has a very special aura, it is hard to grasp its exceptional energy. it appears to be pretty elementary, and yet it is an verwhelming techno anthem which will accompany you for quite some time. adam beyers simulated usage surprises the crowd with its elegance and subtlety. forming an irresistible funk, the fabric of the track interweaves various tiny elements. this savageness obviously manifests in his musical approach which can be characterized by his open-mindedness in regard to diverse influences, currents and styles. simulated usage is strong and joyful, it is techno in its best sense. once again, adam beyer und luke slater manage to coin the face of contemporary club music.

nice price deal !!! nother pounding hybrid set of low-end killers here from hot-flush, kicking off with the tumbling rhythms and wobbling sublow of ?deep under? - its a track that teeters on the brink of breaks science throughout, keeping itself wrapped up in a relentless bass envelope despite the distractions brought on by constantly evolving skitters - mighty stuff. the rhodes-inflected breaks and bass clash of ?sparkle? offers time for reflection on the flip, borrowing a melodic underlay from some abandoned, dusty jazz-club somewhere strange, tugging you back underground with its careful arrangement if frequencies at the lowest end of the spectrum. righteous

made to play brings the noise with the sounds of wearhouse music and head honcho lee mortimer. lee mortimers exciting, sleazy, demented take on house has been kicking the sh*t out of dance floors and festivals the world over. this e.p is not for the faint hearted but is for those who like to rock a big crowd in a ballistic way. when jimi hendrix played not just one but both sides of it at woodstock in the 70s the place went off its tits and when he reverted back to playing the guitar it just couldnt compare and he never quite got over that. lee mortimer is currently reveling in mass support from the likes of switch, claude vonstroke, diplo and kriss akabusi who apparently likes to play these tracks as a post love ritual, naked and chanting awooga! round the camp fire he has in his bedroom. if you want to embellish the feeling of either hendrix or akabusi in the primes of their existences then get stuck into this release and youll feel like a combination of the two peaking on acid.

unreleased disco soul from new orleans band, a side is a short but sweet single that pairs the soul disco styling of earth, wind, & fire with the cool crooning of bill withers. there must be an answer is somber ballad lamenting lost love. this dramatic track is characterized by its dark piano lines and is accentuated by post doo wop vocals reminiscent of the temptations.

emo-techhouse at its best! sanjam is the croatian meaning for im dreaming, and thats exactly what this track is about. warm synths are surrounded by housy chords and a deep bassline. girl with a smile is pure oldschool, initiated through dubby feelings and hypnotic beats. you will see the girls smile on the dancefloor for sure.

after their first single, guns ‘,n’, bombs are back on the dancefloor with riddle of steel! a new techno classic from usa forefront producers, para one brings it back to french house. unpretentious and unforgivingly badass, l.a.s guns n bombs (including an ima robot member) put the united states outside new york back on my techno map, blow current german electro standards out of the water and give paris’,s new french touch a run for its money. on the dancefloor, this enormous riddle of steel becomes huge! a dark and relantless new track with discreet mainstream sounding excursions that make this take no prisoner techno roller. para one worked more on the entertaining vibe, balancing out the rougher edged electro techno tendencies with welcome moments of daft punk esque levity.

after his collaboration with hopen and releases on plak , num and mentalgroove ltd . the owner of plak comes back with a solo 2 tracks ep : fragile mix up of chicago house & dirty bleep minimal . its all about freakies parties , vodka , love & friends

an extremely tasty 4 tracker from the massively talented par grindvik. the a1 is a real killer with its rising synths and sledgehammer drums whereas the a2 is a perfect contrast with its slow intense minimal groove. the b1 again is a real floor burner with its driving groove and clever synth edits halfway. the record closes with a superb more minimal interpretation yet agin. drumcode again proves it is still one of the most cutting edge imprints around... limited backstock available

the long awaited trentemøller debut album - maybe one of the most anticipated independent albums of the year. trentemøller is one of the hottest artists on the electronic circuit - the man of the moment! a beautifully crafted, astonishing masterpiece, that will leave you breathless. the tracks form a story, almost like the soundtrack of a movie. it manages to capture a whole range of emotions in subtle melodic miniatures, dreamy ambiences, dusty beats, deep dub-tracks and driving groove-excursions. an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colours and moods, -the last resort- without a doubt contains trentemøllers best work to date. although its an electronic album, it also incorporates live-drums, guitars, bass and other acoustic instruments like celesta, glockenspiel, melodica and even dj scratching to create a more organic feel

adam beyers drumcode label has its ten year anniversary this year and there will be many releases as well as a massive compilation album project later in the year featuring brand new tracks from many of the label s key artists. one of the newest additions is the producer of this new release - tor lowkrantz or mighty thor as he is known. this 4 tracker again demonstrates the open musical policy of the label. the last hardcell release was a fine piece of work demonstrting influences from both hard and minimal techno sensibilities. this release focuses more on the harder end of the scale but still remains fresh with its almost old jeff mills and rob hood influences. all 4 tracks have a fat groove and are saturated with funk yet still pack serious punch in any set. another winner from drumcode

the truesoul imprint represents the somewhat soulful side of its owner - adam beyer. here, cari lekebusch takes up the challenge and produces two wonderful tracks. on the a side we are treated to a wonderful deep 808 driven groove with eerie pads, neat reverses and cool cowbells that creates a wonderful intensity. on the flip side again the deep groove is apparent with neat vocoded vocal samples and fat bass before there is a cool break and the main synth sound appears in the track to give it a seriously intense lift

short records is back with a new release right after the summer season. eclec sonde & cat shaver undersign a real minimal techno track. the release is produced by the owners of subconce records label which is also about to celebrate its fifth anniversary. refinado has the unmissable subconce style, groovy and techno. top quality minimal techno. the remix on b side is by renowned spanish producer leandro gamez, who adds even more pressure to a real groovy track. short records is very proud of this new signing to the label.

the a side by hardcell and grindvik again has faultless production with its razor sharp drum intro before the pulsing lead sounds drop and the fat percussion edits envelope the track to create a truly intense feel. on the flip adam beyer delivers a truly awesome interpretation cleverly using the main parts but adding rich layers of atmospherics to create a very rich sounding deeper feel. this is a very, very serious release

in our opinion alex bau is one of the best harder techno producers out there. his material over the last 5 years has been both energetic and groundbreaking. his material for zenit has been particulrly good and this is new release is is no exception. both tracks are different but equally effective. the a side is a driving hard edged techno cut with its pounding kick drum and sharp percssion. the track is punctauted with catchy synth riffs and stabs to great effect. the flip side is truly monstrous with its dark dirty warehouse feel and fat sub bass and string edits. great, great record

this year adam beyer s seminal drumcode label celebrates its 10th anniversary. to commemorate this there will be a wealth of material coming out this year as well as some special drumcode parties after the summer that will feature hardcell and grindviks amazing live act. this follows their live cd release from the end of last year. as part of this the gain series will now continue with more material from these 2 and this is the first 4 tracker to continue the series. the tracks themselves are a fresh and varied ranging from the hard synth driven anthem that is salt and the harder driving rhythm gate bay to the exceptionally subtle groove with deep chords that is plankton to the sublime fish tank with its clever building feel and uplifting pads

chef new yorker aka commander tom de lux is kickin our ass directly to the floor. its 2000 again, baby!

adam beyer imprint. a stunning two tracker by agaric and steve logan. the a side is a fantastic chugging track with razor sharp production that just builds and builds with key elements like swirling vocals and synths and a funky bassline. the flip takes a much darker approach with its reverse bass line, synth pattern and super sharp hi hats. this is another fanatastic release from one of the hottest labels around at the moment

another quality dmx krew masterpiece we at turbo are longtime fans of dmx krew, so its a real honor to work with him again 6 years after his last contribution to our now defunct sub-label white leather. we dont normally trace an artists history or include much biography in our press releases, but we feel the need in this case to pay our respects to a long and brilliant career. with all the crap that gets paraded around nowadays its easy to forget who the real masters are... ed dmx is one of them. ive always held a soft spot for ed, he was one of my favorite producers in the proto-electro heyday. hearing his live version of the knight rider theme at sona (tigas club circa 96) was (believe it or not) a revelation. of all the artists id met up until then, he was the coolest, he could play synths better than anyone id ever heard, he had the balls to do vocals in his live-set but he was a sweet, softspoken, and super funny guy. for reasons ive never understood, eds pop side didnt seem to take off and for awhile things took a distinctly experimental turn... interesting stuff, but a departure

just one thing to say: all killer and no filler!

played by : gabriel ananda / claude von stroke / david ellesmere / stephan bodzin... the afu master returns with part two of the las vegas series with slotmachine ! its inspired by the ever rotating and flashing world of the slotmachines and the glamour of the city of sin ! already tested in his live set to great success, this is the next smash on afu limited ! but as usual words cannot describe music, so listening is the best to make your own decision

dubbyman is at his best on this >dubless ep< and surely proves to be a man to look out for

another great big hits compilation of the rolling stones!! full coloured gatefold edition!!

percussive hypnotic tech tracks

pick up your guitar, grab a mic and start to party - its rock n roll, baby!

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

yes, hes back with a huge follow up, after his first impress he left with down. his decision to work with the wonderful and unique voice of soniamiki was just magnificient. marlon krupa is well known in the minimal techno szene because of his digital releases, which always climed the highest positions in digital download charts. its high time to introduce him to the friends of vinyl. with his minimal remix, he will impress! at least, racso and jenn pushed the original in their different kind of styles and generate at all, a record with a high variety of sound and styles. taste the full-bodied flavour of the night!

the young band cours de performance presents us their debut - release on phonothek. its called one! this varied and extremely good produced record tunes in the club season with a beat of a kettledrum. certainly you hear the influence of the three guys - berlin! the result is a super functional ep, which is played from friday until monday. hammerfall charmed with the warm synthie and the oily clap, which even let the crowd freaks out. white walls the fantastic hands up track, which you never will forget. the amazing song you are thee is definitely produced for the peak time and shakes the sound system with a playful kick. petre inspirescus trash is a small homage to sakadat, but the guys show us how to get more groove from the metaphysical - bomb. rise, listen and start to dance. were excited to hear more of course de performance

the 1987 debut album by us rockers guns n roses! includes welcome to the jungle, paradise city and sweet child o mine!

the cure are back in bizz in 2008!!

incl lemos adn savas pascalidis rmxs !! after the heavy rotation on almost every bigger summer festival this year (plays by butch, dubfire, bodzin, huntemann, oscar, ricardo villalobos, steve bug) its now time for some fresh interpretations from lemos and savas pascalidis. the summer is back in town and everybody wants its anthem, tenga, tenga!

after a break for almost a year hztrax is finally back!! petter b delivered the goods and its ready to hit the streets proper! incredibly funky with a discogroove and massive techno beats. thats the new improved formula from petter and its extremely effective on the dancefloor! watch for a string of killers from this man on labels like sway, adult and much more to come...

low low is a source of the unexpected: robotic and dark electro disco meets leftfield chicago house and detroit techno, his sound is brought to life using this heritage and its ancient techniques.

well, the summer festival season is near its end, time to bring you some of the raw stompers that youve been dancing to this season! greg notill and i will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger: if there ever was a famous movie quote to capture the pure essence of the friendly frenchmans track it would be this line from pulp fiction. fierce beats, frantic percussion and even some acid influences. this one has it all! motormorfoses eto and gab, the devistating duo from brazil are now operating from spain and though the name may have changed, the output remains the same. pure relentless beats and power! after opening their track with an electro type bassline and some nice broken beats, pure havoc kicks in soon as the beat drops. hardtrax half of the hardtrax vs. jackhamma liveact and the german bridge between hardtechno and hardcore techno. the dark force recordings co owner comes up with an intriguing brew of raw beats, precise positioned percussion and an 80s type of choir sound that will simply blast you away!dj ogi the torch holder of the croatian techno scene recently spawned us with numerous strong releases on labels such as submissions and cannibal society. we are pleased to say he maintains this line and even raises the bar a little by incorporating some oldschool elements. bet you cant control your feet when you hear this track

the originators of the bear funk are introducing a new imprint for the hottest re edits around. the ambassadors call it diplomatic disco. on number 3, its rotterdams loud e again, culling three of his killer edits.

classic stones-album, digital remastered!

the original mix by duomek takes the form of their musical ideals: house, deep house and minimal. no doubt it aims to the most select dance floors. jon gurd is the one chosen to make the first remix, that for sure will make a lot of harm in the floors. talking about jon gurd is to talk about one of britain?s top class artist of the last years that djs all around the world, produces exquisite music, hold the label killawatt and runs his own program in ministry of sound radio. his productions are habitual in sets of artists like hernan cattaneo, james zabiela o carl cox. tech house of its best of purest kind. finally we find the vision of mintone through inigo ourezabals eye, the 50 percent of monomachine. this dj and producer from zaragoza has been recognized in this last two years as one of the best artist in the spanish music scene. paradigma, wit, leftroom o immigrant are some of the labels that have released his work. this time he bets for a very effective techno that will catch the ear of the lovers of this style.

first pressing in white coloured vinyl, wake up is bound to be a winner with its cool groove, strong bass & catchy voc loop. an 8min+ deep tech masterpiece !! on the vanity side 2 killer tracks by tommy vicari jnr.
