phil kieran has been in the upper echelons of the electronic music game for more than a decade, but is only now releasing his debut album under his own name. known for rocking clubs and releasing a string of killer twelves, belfast-based phil has hooked up with german powerhouse cocoon in recent times. sven väths label is now about to release shh, a groundbreaking piece of work that will undoubtedly gain phil plaudits across the board. shh seems to not only reference every sound phil has ever loved in music, but is formulated in a completely fresh and futuristic way. listen carefully and you can detect elements of dub reggae, old hardcore like lfo, hip-hop, early 90s electronica such as autechre/black dog and other warp staples, as well as the futuristic techno that phil excels in. for the album phil went back to old sound lab recordings dating back to the 1950s and 60s. utilising some of these sounds in the initial construction, he built up tracks using a combination of old samples sourced from original and weird places and some live new instrumentation as well. there are live drums, some electric / acoustic/ bass guitar and live keyboard playing as well as some choice guest vocalists.

*special white vinyl pressing for the first 500 copies only* part man / part machine hizatron takes berkane sol in a new acidic direction with the outstanding tune that is von glooperstein. atmospheric, refined, techy, funky and deranged are all accurate descriptions of this ever evolving masterclass in gloop. beautiful digi bells, crisp clicks and clacks and a monster lead line all combine to work even the most demanding dancefloor. this tune will mix with uk funky just as well as it does with techno and house. it features on the recent geiom fact magazine mix.

the revitalized moton records inc continues to impress and inspire us with amazing, undiscovered music. despite being launched in the early nineties, the label have only released just over 20 records. a co operative effort between djs diesel, harvey, faiths dave jarvis and ashley beedle, this label has expertly amended and extended many and undiscovered, lost classics. as passionate afficionados and music lovers, their selections for the moton treatment are always dealt with respectfully, and released in super limited quantities, hence the crazy prices they reach in the second hand market! this expertly crafted trio of cuts is right up there with their best ever releases. from incredible vintage soul to priceless soulful disco, the moton biys have unearthed yet more buried treasure for your listening pleasure the quality is off the scale, the pressing is a one off - you know what to do!

flint kids are london based electronic music duo dave smith & daniel nolan. they began writing together in 2000 on an akai mpc 2000, s600, korg trinity and 303. years later, after having brought laptops, logic, ableton and other electronic goodies, it became clear that the sounds they were hearing in their heads were possible to recreate. their passion for so many different styles of music saved them from ever being pigeonholed, glitches & bleeps fuse with organic matter fired from a techno blunderbuss to create a pool of binary sputum that finds no home in any one genre. what may begin as a well earned candlelit soak in the tub of ambiance can quickly drain away as they pull the plug, leaving the listener cascading down a dank, jagged hole with only a rung less ladder made of plasticine.... not for the faint hearted!

a record which was originally slated for the fee records catalog, but never made the cut... one life to live was released on the private 4 reel label in 1980, limited to local distribution of only a small handful of copies. its back, but we are sad to say the artist passed away last year before he could see his re release realized.

the wait is over... !k7 is very proud to present the next instalment in the dj-kicks series and we couldnt think of a better pairing.
chromeo is canadians p-thugg & dave 1: best friends, virtuoso musicians, walking hip hop encyclopedias, and the only successful arab/jew partnership since ... well, ever.
after releasing 2 albums (she s in control and fancy footwork), hitting the dancefloors / attacking the charts with you re so gangsta and needy girl, remixing the likes of cut copy and lenny kravitz, feist and vampire weekend, and years of jet setting and globetrotting ... the time is right for them doing their take on dj kicks. a match made in...
teenage lovers, 20 something bloggers, 30 something burned out ex ravers and 40 something sistas can all finally party under one roof with this slick, sleek, smoothed out mix. a tribute to canada of sorts, as it includes so many maple leaf underground classics and obscurities. obviously there some unreleased versions (chateau marmont most notably) and of course the dj-kicks exclusive track, with chromeo fucking around with the eagles classic >i cant tell why< which comes in 2 versions and will get a separate 7 inch release also.

patterns has a string of releases lined up pure quality funky techno and next in this line up is no other than david moleon! this man needs no introduction. with his signature style he gets respect and filled dancefloors all of the world. not only are the dancefloors filled, but the people on it go crazy everythime this man shows his face! listen to his records and understand why...

they smash down the door with the title track , >labyrinth<, a massive dancefloor killer with a big hit potential! with this track exium brings up oldschool memories with influences of their modern sound. this is exium at his best!
on the flipside, paul boex, mr. labelboss himself and his partner in crime marco rane, make their debut on the label with a soulfull remix of this original. with impressive releases on arms and naked lunch these guys prove once again that they are capable of bringin quality stuff to the floor. on the b2 exium comes up with a highly intelligent broken beat tune, called >plankton<. dave clarke already played this in his weekly >white noise< radioshow. big support!

heavy support from laurent garnier, ricardo villalobos, luciano, loco dice, raresh, pedro, rhadoo, dubfire, andrew grant, ali nasser and more … old-school style floor destroyer!!! posh 111 is an unknown mystery hailing from romania. with 2 outstanding cuts packed with waves of optimism and snickfest enticed skullduggery he has delivered a superble bewben of a brutish pigeon chested blooter. includes a super rare and unique remix by petre inspirescu who fuses together both >nedenumit< & >the coco song< in a way only he can

played by anja schneider !!! the first catalogue number from the house of formatik comes from format:b the a-side (hotrod) is a pushing, wooden battering monster in the typical format:b manner the hugo remix gallops through the house arena like a thoroughbred stallion. extremely wonky breaks paired with a post modern house beat makes it the perfect alternative. redux on the b-side is a heavyweight techno layout. sirens, massive baselines and a dark atmosphere that sometimes, but only sometimes, reminds you of old black and white horror films make this track the perfect addition to this first ep.

our favorite frankfurters miguel and arno are back with more frolicking, funky and fired up house. the boys have kept busy since their last release on kindisch, out with a bang, (which for a period was heard every weekend in clubs across europe) remixing for labels such as arearemote, below and murmur. oh, and we almost forgot to mention nurturing their label la peña, whose success can be contributed to their no nonsense attitude to releasing only merit worthy house. welcome back kindischs native sons, as they take you an inebriated four-track voyage of the utmost magnitude of rump-jiggling beats. >caña moral< contains all the things that we have grown to love einzelkind for: warm and crunchy beats and a perfected groove all following the chants of tribal vocals. this one might be a tad more pristine than what they have been known to release on their own label, but it does give proof of their ability to construct tightly woven modern beats

bottin, aka william bottin makes music only an italian can make... probably. take a youth spent against a background of old italian giallo soundtracks, some john carpenter film music, add in late 70s italo disco influences, add a touch of free, some easy west coast vibe and a smattering of kitsch. that just about half describes bottin.

the strictly vinyl only crusade continues with the forthcoming release from mukatsuku records in the shape of the string laden disco bomb real clothes from the japanese producer ryota nozaki under his jazztronik personna. nik has a long history with jazztronik after having compiled with jake benhan the jazztronik inner flight album back in 2001 for counterpoint records and having djd with the live jazztronik band and ryota as a dj several times in japan and uk over the last few years.

tsuba is proud to welcome federico molinari for his debut tsuba release with the infectious house groove of ‘party faktor’. this a total dancefloor bomb with clever vocal hook & sax stabs underpinned with a killer bassline. on the flip robert dietz provides a deeper disco tinged remix with cowbells galore to complete a stunningly good 12 inch! federico really needs no introduction, with his oslo and vinyl only loveletters from oslo labels making series waves in 2008 and 2009. ‘party faktor’ sums up all thats great about club music in 2009.

this is a limited 12inch vinyl release on kieran hebdens (four tet) text records label. 500 only for the world. two new remixes of one of the stand out tracks from the debut album by one little plane that came out last summer. the first mix is by avus who is one of the artists on james holdens border community label. a beautiful piece of melodic techno that has been getting lots of play at border community nights since late last year. the other remix is by joe goddard from hot chip. techno with a strong uk garage influence. following on from the amazing remixes he has done for everyone from gang gang dance to kraftwerk.

diametric is a new glasgow based record label which aims to put the word underground back into electronic music and give back something special to the techno and electro community. the label is strictly vinyl only. each release will be very limited and packaged by hand to give the label a personal approach for all true underground techno heads out there that still appreciate the spirit of true techno and electro.
the first release is a dream come true project for us, as we are proud to present a 12 inch by detroit legend optic nerve aka keith tucker, part of the famous electro duo aux88. keith is recording under several monikers such as optic nerve, k-1 or alien fm since the very early nineties and has built his own unique style of electro and techno music out of detroit. the >reassimilation ep< showcases keith at his best, deep driving techno with that extra bit of funk that most of todays productions are missing. we are very sure these tracks will devastate the dancefloors.

hispanic only ep!!!

kne deep is a&r ed by the one and only emperor of hard techno, dj rush. the next kd in line is by sam silva, an amazing new talent on the scene. these tracks will fuck with your brain & feet. madness...

beep beep beep. remix remix remix!
on the a-side, the loco dice dub is a perfect set-builder, one of his best remixes to date. purist loco fans might also be happy to hear that tigas vocal has been 99% extracted from this version, leaving behind only the echo of disco-pop in a solid, dj-friendly groove.
kaines mix keeps things closer to the original, emphasizing the pop punch-lines with staccato beeps and a chunky beat. positive vibes here from a bright young uk producer.
finally, space-disco maestros emperor machine turn in another epic roller complete with a brilliant analog synth jam finale.
great job!

the latest in the sell out series - this time featuring 4 tracks. cabin fever follows up with another of radio slaves secret weapons. once again only 500 marbled vinyl copies - when they are gone, they are gone. previous cabin fevers are sold out. lookout for the next cabin fever by the romanians, then a double pack from radio slave called >i feel raw< which should not be missed

following up the intrusion & paul st. hilaire project comes a new release from the intrusion imprint which offers a killa selection of steppas riddims and tropical grooves. intrusions >velocity in a minor< is all about being playful with a sequence, splicing a riddim, stimulating the mind while shuffling your feet. this concludes with the mysterious lo-fi soundsystem up next who make their first 12 inch appearance on intrusion (previously recording under a variety of names strictly on 45) their powerful >de lions den< has been given a second lease on life from its scarce 45 release, (which was only available at a few small record shops in jamaica) this island groove is filled with the dankiest skanks, a melodica on acid and a bassline deeper than the ocean. this mystical midnight groove is given a rework in a 4/4 rhythm and effects from deep space, behind the controls is intrusion front man stephen hitchell who leaves us with a tasty embellishment in fat riddims and icey cold electronics. the b side opens with mildious >de natura rerum< which crosses into territory comparable to intrusions >tswana dub< or the atmospheric dub side of rhythm & sound, a powerful mind melter which does all the rights things in all the right time. the closing >oceanview< paints a picture of just that, leaving you to wander off into the ocean breeze while sinking into its smoky green vapour haze.

new single from mister david guetta!! two monster mixes only on this vinyl!! limited one side press and worldwide 300 pieces only.

new kid on the block jacob korn (dresden, germany yall!) convinced sometime somewhere in toronto with a hearty live set that took a route over hip hop, down tempo house and all kinds of funkiness until it peaked with the disco-house-craze >i like the sun (but not on leds)<. much to the delight of a present running back a&r. hands were shook and it took only 2 and a half years until the test pressing arrived. supplemented with the slow burning >selene< that really gets you the second time around, prevents the typical mistakes current deep house likes to make (at least, we think so) and is the sun gods sister, the a-side is good to go. flip the script to see prins thomas in a good temper, rolling out the red carpet with one of his tried and tested remixes. >i like the sun< piles up to 13 minutes of true diskomiks glory including drums that go on forever (bonus beats, yall!) and some eye-cue-markers for those of you who are deaf already. well, swell

special vinyl only edition !! a tribute to 15 years of gerberei schwerin !! four unreleased tracks from kollektiv turmstrasse , kombinat 100, goldwill , nils nilson !! happy birthday and long live the underground !

stefan alexis aka somnabulist is a young musician from skopje, macedonia nowadays based in berlin. he is not focused only in one style of music. he experiments with different and weird sounds and dont like to limited his way of felling about music. he reaches from techno, electonica to chill out and ambient. his results you can see in the releases for global underground uk, v.i.m records greece and samuvar ltd germany.

limited edition lp!
ironic? no, it’s dead serious: sally shapiro keeps on dreaming of barbie and ken. sometimes good things come to those who wait, as is the case with sally shapiro. one shouldn’t really imagine the bashful swede from göteborg, who never performs live, setting a new trend for turning down lucrative offers. and the thought that she is working on something hip, is most likely even a little eerie for her. after all, she s just into something, which she’s been doing since her childhood in the 1980s — singing songs in the style of her idol sandra (”maria magdalena“). if she hadn’t met her companion johan agebjörn, who despite his musical socialization with techno in the 1990s has been deep into italo disco for the past few years and is a collector of zyx records, sally’s passion for synthi songs and fairy-like female vocals would have remained private. however, johan was screwing together some italo-style songs when he asked sally (whose voice he’d only heard from a previous christmas party karaoke) if she would improvise on his soft keyboard tunes, their collaboration was a done deal.
subsequent to their first releases on the labels diskokaine and permanent vacation, sally shapiro suddenly found herself in the midst of the ultra-hip neo/italo-disco movement, which is especially big in scandinavia. why of all things on the northern peninsula, where one traditionally listens to black metal and indie rock played with legs spread apart, the peculiar, yet sunny disco music became such an export hit, stays one of the mysteries of the pop business. it’s a fact, though, that next to internationally celebrated norwegian neodisco-heroes lindström, prins thomas and todd terje, the lovely sally has become the scandinavian disco-act in the mean time.

the schaffhaeuser & friends series was so much fun to make and so well received, it now enters round three with an additional bonus vinyl. all tracks on this ep have never been released, not even on the cd edition of >unequal equality<.

arrestar, hailing from brussels, is the second belgian artist releasing on token. he sent me this killer idm/techno track some time ago and it was immediately a favourite of mine. i fell in love with it the moment i heard it. in the end, it just needed a release. im not the only supporter of this track: inigo kennedy, oscar mulero & grovskopa love it too, so they decided to contribute with each another interpretation of the track, which in the end results in a diverse package.

in spring of 2006, jackpot began to fester in a stockholm apartment. without fresh air or natural light, the group developed its uniquely mutant strain of italo disco mixed with early 80s body music aided only by the sickly blue rays of late night tv. while the jackhammer rhythms of their music were proliferating in stockholm, jackpot dove into the deepest recesses of the electronic dance music psyche for the most primal of all rhythmic impulses - their own unmistakable sound - the sound of western culture falling apart in a blaze of shudders and hiccups. as late night sci fi reruns colored the room, jackpot also picked and chose amongst the psychotic debris of previous eras - the movies of kenneth anger, the music of suicide, velvet underground and bruce haack, the words of william s burroughs. and then they added the junkiest element of all - themselves. after two critically acclaimed records, the third chapter of the jackpot saga is about to be told. its called greased lightning (also features remix work from such talents as in flagranti and rory phillips). you hear that beat? thats them knocking on your door.

after the re release on clone and some hot tracks on lets pet puppies another one rescued production of marcus mixx from obscurity! mr mixx featuring project democracys is this dream for real? paired with 3 more of marcus tracks. these rare tracks were only heard mostly in and around chicago during the late 80s. is this dream for real? is a deep and moody chicago house track. deep, infectious bassline with a gorgeous female vocal, the kind of track that makes you instantly say, wtf? simple, timeless, effective. and so are the other three tracks. raw jacking house tracks just as we like it!

zuckerwatte is the second single from oliver koletzkis new album >großstadtmärchen<. and zuckerwatte, which translates as candyfloss is a truly magical tale about love and loss in the big city. the original features juli holzs softly whispering voice that is so very fragile, and so very beautiful. this is a softly grooving electro-pop discovery. but of course this song has also been transformed for the dancefloor on this single that also features two more tracks from olivers album. first up is the remix by david august, one half of the duo august & bachert who delivers a top-notch glitchy tech-house edit that makes great dramaturgical use of the original track. next up is björn störigs vision of zuckerwatte. the drummer of olivers live outfit the koletzkis envisions juli holz perform her sweet and sticky singing over some neo-soul tech-rnb influenced electronica that features a spanish guitar, some great claps and some very nice synthesizers. on the flip there is koletzkis instrumental house-homage kusskompatibel and these habits, on which only seventeen-year-old singer pyur makes her debut. she sings wonderfully harmonic over this down-beat trip-hop groove and it results in a great hit for the late summer. this single is more than a single. its the best thing before the album

detroit legend aaron carl and his label wallshaker. rain is a slice of classic house think blackwater ! a special vinyl - only edition

played by adam beyer, dave clarke, josh wink, dj hell, dubfire, renato cohen, paer grindvik ...
a true home for playful experimentation and a place for real fun to be had, figure spc proudly raises its hat to the latest dose of musical mindplay on offer. after the sensational trip that was his >vapors< 12 inch on len fakis figure label last year, the inimitable savas pascalidis returns with four unique club burners that are guaranteedhotter than the sun! >positive force< throws us right into the party, introducing the bold, gutsy vibe of the ep with this sinister synthethiser jam. using only a handful of elements to tell the tale, an addictive bassline and a psycho-disco groove throw energy all over the place in this recklessmonster.

two of turbo s rising stars come together to make one of the biggest records of the year. peanuts club has been arguably the hottest track of the summer for heavyweight djs erol alkan, tiga, and a-trak. it s instantly catchy and massively effective, and we ve seen it bring the best out of the crowd night after night, but you probably already know all about it. the real coup here is that cajou club is another absolute bomb, maybe even better than peanuts club, and more disturbing evidence that france has produced yet another two major-league players in dance music. noob s really been hitting his stride lately, following on terrific remixes for brodinski and d.i.m. and tai s lyposuct, his productions getting exponentially bigger with each release. as for brodi, anyone that s seen him play knows he has all the makings of a star, and if he can keep putting out records this good, the sky s the limit! wanting to go beyond double-megahit and attempt quad-bomb status, we commissioned a terrific remix from sound pellegrino s renaissance man. noob & brodi are in love with it, plus they re the only finns out there to have not produced a record for turbo, so it was a perfect fit. the ph 0 remix on the vinyl is, incredibly, an original take on acid, it s loopy and weird, but works like magic.

mexican techno veteran luis flores makes his debut appearance on the droid recordings label with dain brammage. as both an artist andmusical catalyst, luis has shared many ideals with the members of droid. after many years of pushing progressive concepts that are both innovative and non conforming, luis has developed his own production style that is precise, hypnotic, and maintains a healthy degree of dance floor groove. his title track is a deep journey into psychedelia and unearthly bass. brammage contains only a few essential elements, each tripped toperfection. sparse eerie vocals carry nicely along the 6 minute sequence. flores inside track the call is a slow and steady builder with dark subtle vibes and crisp hand claps. at four minutes flores introduces a rippling synth gate that trips listeners deeper into submission. very heady, very essential

it s irrness how this guy blows out one hit after another. you may get the slight feeling that something must be irregular here. and we say: irror! irrness is only the irr garden of emotions you ll find yourself in whenever you listen to john dalys music. and it is this daly-ish flirring that turns your feelings into a rattle. we say thank you to irreland!

please welcome the very first release from >sundance<, which is fumiya tanakas third and newest label following >torema records< and >op.disc<. this ep contains two tracks by fumiya and ricardo villalobos !! no available as a digital release !! physical only !!

with this new ep tom clark makes an impressive return to the highgrade release program. following a collaboration with marcus schatz and most recently with benno blome, he now comes back as a solo artist. after only a few beats, you’ll be sure to recognise his signature sound. tom needs surprisingly few elements to build a unique atmosphere and his matchless grooves. on the title track “scorpio“ we find a deep, rolling bassline and a slightly orientally influenced vocal, combined with the typically unique clarkish synth leads, and we’re ready to go. it’s a track that continually keeps the excitement moving while never letting the cat out of the bag, and more than deserves the a-side. then we come to “albino“, also featuring sparkling synths and rolling drums that create an impression of fluidity and an unhurried beginnings, but we also end up in a waterfall… who would have known!? in conclusion comes “sand flea“, as lively as a box of fleas, but not nearly as aggrivating! mister clark is again at his best, with a love for detail, an innate sence for strange sounds and an a significant quantity of leisurely energy, this tune also really hits the mark. this is not the work of a newbie who produces an aggressive sound to prove his talents. the result is the feature of this ep: seldom has an understatement sounded so fresh. + digital-only bonus track “12 notes“!

now techno has its own fair trade. basmati, the new label by gabriel ananda (artist direction) and marcel janovsky (management), does not indulge in pretentious bragging. in fact, its not even supposed to have a release sheet like this one. but sometimes, youre even too modest to stay away. so, whats it all about? well, the music, of course. and only the music. organic stuff, so to speak. tracks made by pure immersion. no plans, no blueprints. just going with the flow, unleashing the inner krautrock while staying true to the basics of techno. gabriel and friends at their best. inhale

this new 12inch from domu is an essential taster of what is to come on his one offs, remixes and b sides double cd, out soon on tru thoughts. as well as the killer title track, the a side of the tasty springbreak 12inch also features the exclusive domu remix instrumental, from his remix of tickles by sun tzu sound - a highly anticipated nugget which has had forums buzzing with people who missed the limited pressing of the track first time round. on the flip you ll find a new mix down of the previously digital only domu release, something new, as well as the instrumental cut which is exclusive to this 12inch.
