temple of the sun is the fifth ep of the london based french producer harold boue. after his last track >chandler bing< has been charted by erol alkan and played by simian mobile disco, rex the dog (for bbc), mattie safer... abstraxion is creating here an universe of mixed up dark and brightness with warped-schizophrenic bassline. this ep reaches the diversity of abstraxions universe: from peaktime techno (b and s, temple of the sun), disco-balearic (slices), to beatless deep ambient (vampyros lesbos). abstraxion is composing an organic music, only with old analog synthesizers, in a gesture of unmitigated desire: a desire for the elementary beauty of techno.

stone cold classic funky disco floor filler thats stood the test of time. first time ever on 12inch!!! taken from the hard to find self titled lp by tommy stewart, bump & hustle music is the definitive disco funk party anthem. it was recorded in 1976 in atlanta, georgia, and since then the lp has found itself in the play boxes of soul, funk and jazz djs alike. however, its not until now that this amazing song has finally made it onto the preferred format of dance djs the world over û the 45rpm 12inch single. in 1976 tommy stewart was a busy man, working as an arranger, producer, performer and writer for a host of soul and rnb artists. the lp made for abraxas records was the first to go directly under his name, and although it failed to take off locally, the lp soon became known by djs across the world primarily for the club smash bump & hustle music. as it happens that song in particular almost didnt exist but for tommy needing to come up with something quick in order to fill in a gap in the album. conceived and recorded on the spur of the moment, and with backing vocals by isaac hayes singers hot buttered soul overdubbed later, its a superb example of rhythmic simplicity blended with soulful, catchy harmonies. its just impossible to listen to bump & hustle music without a broad smile coming to your face, and when played loud in a club, its impossible not to dance!

already licensed to the upcoming dubfire mix cd !!! minisketch10 is signed by berlin based artist sebrok. vision and cheap and awesome are two wicked minimal techno tracks that already got the support of such artist as dubfire, nic fanciulli or alexi delano. vision ia already been choosen by dubfire for the 2009 cocoon cdmix. sebrok - the person. im a passionate musicfan and my profession is being a dj, producer and label owner. could there be anything better!? - these are the words of the berlin-based artist sebrok. in 2004 m sebrok founded his own label paso music with marc miroir and joachim spieth.

hailing from the musical mecca of austin, texas, and following up their brilliant debut album from last year, which featured in our year end top 10, with this already hugely lauded sophomore effort. recorded by the band in their infamous studio/trailer, wailing fuzz guitars, soulful, yearning, emotive vocals, and one of the tightest rhythm sections going provide the currency in which this unique power trio explore their brilliant, unexpected and wide ranging musical ideas. an entirely original, sprawling combination of sixties rock touchstones, free form jazz jamming, and a defiantly post punk spirit, and all performed with a precision, and vibrant intensity not often found on record.

this is the first in a series of three various artist 12 inch releases, that features four of the dublin labels most trusted henchmen. puresthatreds >robbery< is his debut track on mantrap and what an awesome one it is: dark imposing bass and beats meet the sound of smashing glass, rave led keys and all round mayhem, with haunting strings that send this one into deepest hell. meeting him there is magnetize, who in one take supplied this evil vox led synth grinder in >distant observer< , with deft 808s and distorted crackling fx creating both a scary but grooving feel. rory st john pushes wobbly techno eccentricity on >dysentry<, with fluid editing and supreme use of effects proving again why he is one of the most exciting new talents around. sunil sharpes >print more money and shut up!< is a slippery mover, where a succession of unruly lead sounds accompany odd vocals and rasping hats - with a straightforward approach that will penetrate all in its way. so, four top class techno cuts here, all with their own unique character and all for peak time play.

stephan laubner s stl project returns on his something imprint with another great, deep and soulful vinyl release where he illuminates even more corners of his universe. retro stylish melodies between raw and rough house beats with the unstoppable affectation for long evolving grooves. these tracks easily break through the sound barrier and moving supersonically on dancefloors and places beyond. a voyage, which has it s roots in the dark. at a place where spirit comes from. music out of the inner galaxy where emotions and thoughts get born, all captured and channeled through oldschool equipment direct to your speakers. these sounds are part of something. something you can not see, but somehow, you know it s definitely there. get inside, and enjoy the unseen voyage.

according the info provided by the label this is all new tracks from art forest, the actual son of cybotrons rik davis. some freaked out electro techno that harks back to the early days of model 500. we are not sure if they are telling the truth (or are we sure they are not telling the truth!? stuff like this does not come around often.... dont sleep!!

the chicks have been busy in the last 2 years, filming video, making art installations, girl monster extravaganzas, reading books, exhibiting all over the planet, making patchwork fashion collections (for insight, crystal ball and yoox.com), building high heeled shoe guitars, high tech super suits that trigger sound and video and other objekt instruments ... and they even found the time to make this new record!

in a subterranean tunnel, halfway between las vegas and new york is a small after hours venue where the walls are covered in red velvet and the floor littered with dreams and broken promises. over the soundsystem is the trace of a groove, deep and stark, cut into a vinyl that was already worn down before it was played the first time. welcome to the afterparty that never finishes. be careful where you put the drink!

pumping bassline garage tracks!!

here it is the first official ost on permanent vacation: gutterballs. gutterballs, by ryan nicholson, is a groovy, sleazy and pretty dang gory grindhouse revival slasher in the vein of the great 80 s horrorfilms. the film takes place during a midnight disco bowl-a-rama at a popular bowling alley, which leads directly to the great soundtrack by gianni rossi, who composed a mix between classic, goblin-esque, synthie flavoured, horror-movie soundscapes and uplifting italo pop/rock.

nice price deal !!! essential & deep album by the man monoder aka jussi pekka! timeless beauty ! monoder. born in the cold north among industrial warehouses, people wearing only gray and random rabbits crossing the streets. his home town has two-lane streets which were made for the mass movement that never happened. physically close to civilization but mentally light years away. with the economic regression hitting hard, the town is filled with unemployed and old people wandering the streets and trying to find out what went wrong. like zombies of a mental desert. monoder. though the name sounds familiar, he has nothing to do with italodisco or electropop. the music, as the name, is filled with cold, stripped down and hypnotic atmospheres. taking you on a trip filled with hunger, cold breeze, forests and frozen tundra. the studio is on the roof-level of abandoned rubber factory, where disillusioned entrepreneurs try to get their daily bread doing what ever. moist pushing from the sealing and walls. water dripping during the mixdown. someone pulling cargo in the hallway.

brawther is a young frenchman from paris. this deephouse producer found his roots in the 90s house music vibe from new jersey, chicago, detroit, england and france. may it be true garage or deep house, the groove, spirit and energy of this period has touched him deep inside and he is now a fierce defender of what he calls true school house music as opposed to oldschool or new school: i hate when people say that this sounds old school and that style sounds old or whatever... for me, a vibe is timeless... in summer 2007, brawther releases his first e.p. under the name izmo as a 12inch on french label 9ts records, and response was great, supported and played by legendary tony humphries... disguised as a tribute to smack productions, his where is eddie e.p. touched people from all different scenes, from deep house to uk garage?

france fed records to the disco explosion right from the start. most famously, the tele music players were the chart topping, multi-million selling voyage, with the trio of chantereau, dahan and pezin joined by sauveur mallia. phenomenal production and immaculate orchestration made them perfect for the increasingly glamour obsessed disco scene. but more exciting to collectors are the long running series of library lps they worked on.

house mixes by olli collins & fred portelli and dave aude!!

first release for this new italian label, who claim to bring techno back to its top level. we re inclined to agree with those sentiments, as are the others who have received promos of the release. the a side consists of two deep and dark techno tracks, that should also find favour with more minimal djs. they are apparently by a popular northern european artist, going under the guise of ????. the label has kept such a secret that we dont even know who it is. on the b side, we have a soz adams (esperanza, archipel, gumption) remix of label head obtane and fris, which is a retro chicago style excursion, and german duo sebastian herre and obscure close the ep with a more detroit techno inspired track.

tyrant is the dj duo of craig richards and lee burridge, who operate as a team in the booth, resulting in a most distinct mix previously unheard. while other mix discs might split chores between two different jocks, tyrant are very much a solid unit.
