the final record from oakland, cas psychedelic quartet, the gris gris, was recorded live at the warehouse where greg ashley resides. the twilight had come and the fat lady sang. the final bell tolled for the brightest sons of the oaklandish psychedelic revolution. here is the final piece to that hazy, mysterious, yet strangely familiar sound this band created. with songs from both records played with ferocity and sonic mayhem, the story of the gris gris is here. bright. swirling. gnarly. electric...

having forged a keen army of converts to their late night audio nights & establishing a reputation as one of londons best underground parties, it was only a matter of time before they started their own label to release the music they & their party people love to dance to. expect the finest in deep electronic house, balearic boogie and italo flavours, all expertly mastered onto luxurious vinyl with slick graphic artwork. the first artist signed and to be released on the label is french/u.s producer kevin lemonnier recording under the name of das volt. this man uses no plug-ins and a resolutely old skool production philosophy. utilising all analogue signal paths through outboard and vintage gear. his music is justifiably compared to the luxuriously warm and pared down output of metro area, capturing that legendary period between disco & proto house by being a stickler for authenticity. gestures is a modern take on the electro boogie sound, pizzicato strings, silky rhodes and fat bass all blended to create a dance floor gem. fantasy is a modern italo disco classic, with epic pianos setting the mood over a driving trouser flapping bass line. remixes come courtesy of italian outfit telespazio s fabrizio mammarella - who does his deep electro funk thing with immediate dance floor effect, and toby tobias of rekids and late night audio fame, who completes the package with a killer balearic boogie interpretation

the next remix project on the list for fergies excentric music imprint are two new interpretations of his fat track - question mark. on the a side yousef gives us a funky driving, classy rework with an awesome groove, tight percussion and big room feel. on the flipside there is a very clever interpretation from dan doran and antonio menez with its shuffled minimal groove and catchy synth hooks. another great package.

bosconi is back with his third release featuring the naughty quitèfrut guys, label boss fabio della torre and his parisian-berliner mate mattako. the orginal tracks are the spontaneous results of two afterhourmakingmusic studio sessions and what came out are two proper minimal kickass bass throbbers, dry but fat dj-tool house that take inspiration from daniel bell, baby ford, zip and mike ink works. the production is concentrated on the use of analogue instruments that give the tracks a deep and warm feeling with an oldskool vibe. ?absoluca? is a trippy and hypnotic blend of tight and intricate grooves enriched by subliminal cinematic samples, tropical atmospheres and sinister male voices. special guest on bosconi this time are robsoul boss phil weeks and didier allyne under their p&d guise who drop out a very effective dance mania style remix of absoluca, a dancefloor smasher tool that goes straight to the point, strongs 909 kicks and aggressive hi hats those take you back to the chicago warehouse party time, and we think ron hardy wont have disappointed this at all !! last track called at some point? is a deep driving techno track that open your senses, the groove is detroity and the sounds of synths draw into your brain and don?t let go. open your mind to the sounds of nature!!

winter here and cold sounds also, this time warm up engine s drivers are grovskopa and agony forces, joined in remix duties by label s boss oscar mulero. grovskopa ignites the flame on b side with jauhar, and industrialized piece of dark techno with an analogue bassline as a starring ,resting on top of an abstract and metallic beat, salted with hypnotic vocal samples and atmospheres. a peak time weapon for the hard ones. closing b side oramics by agony forces investigate in the same field, nearly industrial beats, crunchy and dark, sinewave sequences, fat bassdrums and again an hypnotic and lisergic feel. as the the track goes on, pads and synth atmos do the job adding a mellow edge to the dark side. alone on a side, oscar mulero s rework of jauhar is pure floor action, substracting atmospheres and focusing on rythms and beats. giving a straight ahead approach to the original. electronic body music for the 21st century.

venezuelan producer argenis brito graces us with his sophomore cadenza release, the imminent ep. renowned for his role as lead vocalist for senor coconut as well as his collaborative projects with artists as decorated as luciano, pier bucci, jay haze and samim, the multi-talented argenis solo work comes with some pedigree. resident in berlin since 2004, his distinctly latin interpretation of house is a step ahead of the game, with prior releases on junion and cadenza animating floors with that inimitable south american fervour. title track >imminent< is a playful affair,with bouncing bass and a shimmering synth melody dancing around the kick. intoxicating and funked up, the melodies call and respond in a fragmented conversation while pulsing echoed tones add depth to the mix. >mind body soul< stutters into a complex percussive pattern, coloured by warm keys and blocks of bass tone. funky is the word, as a distorted vocal directs bodies to the floor. deep and immersive, dark melodic synth movements plunge us into a sweaty and cathartic house hole. on the flip, >lolipop< combines electro and house elements into one cheeky dance with the devil. bubbling bass flows under cascading melodic synth, as fat percussion crunches around sharp vocal bursts. slick and futuristic, this is for that time of the night where looking backwards is not an option.closing the ep, >unreality< is as deep as they come. warm and uncompromising key stabs pulsate over a no-nonsense bass drive, accented by harmonising clav tones. living up to its moniker, the resonant melodies and hypnotic pace conspire to transcendental effect.

anorak 002 from the mysterious fat camp collective heads to the deep south for feeling and rock your georgie, both of which have a gator swamp feel to them with a slight twist of jambalaya, crawfish pie and fillet gumbo. yum! they are aided in their culinary mission by penthouse disco, whose nipples are rather daringly on display in a wanton admission of fallen virtue.

sometime chicken lips collaborator and full time disco don stevie kotey keeps the momentum going on his longstanding and ever consistent imprint by going slightly off piste with the latest bearfunk 12inch. for my friends is the work of lusty zanzibar aka alex cordiner, cabaret voltaire fan and former holistic artist, and we re struggling to describe it effectively to be honest. its a simple concoction of fluttery synth riffs and fat bottom end, but has the sort of quirky melody that you just dont expect to hear in a noo disco record, or a house record for that matter. it is, however totally infectious, and destined to be one of bearfunks biggest of the year we reckon. solid mixes come from kotey and lusty himself, and all are dominated by the riff, as will your brain be after listening to this package a few times. beginning of the night, end of the night, all night, all aboard the wonky disco train to zanzibar

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

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

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

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

beat assassins give ludacris and fat boy slim an extra kicking breaks-treatment!

(elle k brown voice of citizen kain)

the 15th release is another original from label boss james harcourt - and a summery house/tech track which features a strong bass line & piano based groove and the right ingredients to be a right little party starter! australian favourite and master of fat, funky genre-blending beats anthony mansicalco - better known as hook n sling - was been drafted in for the remix.

really dope release, this guy has a unique style of his own! on deep breath he shapes up the perfect banging techno tune for peak time play! get down is a dirty and raw cyber-techno-funk nugget to please all those who like their grooves fat and nasty! gladiator is a fantastic minimal work-out in the same vein as fortek colleague stefan tretau. subliminal deep and well balanced. schnutenzieher is a wicked techno tune in the same vein as some of the dj koze stuff.

the fourth release on the serialism imprint comes from itzo, a london duo consisting of one english (half of guy noir on resopal) and one spanish. the result is a brilliant mix of techno influenced minimal funk, stylish, cool and always groovy. the whole ep has a very refined sound that offers some delightful melodies all the way through, combined with big fat rhythmic structures that just force you to dance all the time. a delightful and original ep

the legendary club u60311 in frankfurt has opened up a brand-new hotspot for minimal right in the heart of the city, going by the name of 311. paired with this, an affiliated label - dreielf recordings - has also been launched. the residents michael kohlbecker, one part of the saafi brothers, and frankfurts newcomer peter eilmes are releasing the fruits of their cooperation in their home studio, and putting an already-established scene hit onto vinyl with - tabasco. the original of the record impresses with its anthemic character, which may have been due to the fat bass-line and the striking trumpet. despite its monotony, a real jewel for every record case and just the stuff to get happiness dripping from the club ceiling. the remix by alexi delano, on the other hand, is somewhat deeper and more melodic at the same time, but still contains all the ingredients necessary for a proper shot of tabasco. sonic monogamy or fat kick basses make this remix unique. the dominant trumpet and the scraping percussion of the berliner andre crom make this remix an absolute guarantee of ecstasy. tabasco is hot and burns like hell!
