when surfing on places and spaces like myspace you sometimes bump into something special, a rare diamond. so we of sound architecture did when we got tipped to check out the myspace of this dutch guy named dollkraut. the following week the only music played in our office was his... when we found out to by surprise that dollkrauts music was not signed yet to any label, we did hesitate or think twice and invited dollkraut to one of our events and asked him to do an ep on our label. inspired by artists such as dave brubeck, glenn miller, pepe bradock, recloose, jazzanova and krause duo, its sounds like dollkraut mixed them all in a big shaker, adding some of his secret ingredients. serving a dish to die for.. full colour sleeve with handstamped releaseinfo on whitelabelcopy.

nico purman (known from labels like crosstown rebels, mule electronic & vakant) is known for his unique dark and deep, yet funky sound, definitely the right man to bring us those first spring vibrationz...nico purmans first curle is already almost two years old. in fact he was one of the first people we contacted when we were in the process of starting up the label. simply because of his unique dark and deep, yet funky sound. at the time he had only released on modelisme, but in the meantime much respected labels such as crosstown rebels and mule electronic proposed him an ep, and also vakant took him under their wings. hailing from argentina, hes definitely the right man to bring us those first spring vibrationz...

the running back sports team is glad to welcome two new players to its roster. dplay and whiz kid manuel tur (see also his brilliant ribn stuff) have caused a great stir with a bouquet of 12-inches for outfits like zurichs beloved drumpoet community or the compost black label as well as knocking out well-made remixes. for instance, their work on kiloos the passion is just adorable. here we have them melted into one organism called dplay, while mtur moves in silence (or in the production credits, if you please). stretching out on the a-side, huub sand is not only a tribute to two of schalke 04s greatest gentlemen, but a prime-example of cavernous, stoic and infective house those two (no not the schalke guys) had quite an impact on. initially planned to come with a remix by the mighty radio slave (please look at cat-no. 012 to see what became of that), our coach could convince the duo to hand out two rather atypical, nonetheless bloodcurdling tunes instead: tschaka kicks some deep dub disco houz styles of the highest orders with riot-like effects on your mind, body & soul. finally, schroulé is a claustrophobic corker, if we have ever seen one. should be the perfect sound track for padded cells and the up-and-coming remake of mel brooks frankenstein. these ruhrpott kids are alright!

die lp beinhaltet eine pop ambient gratis cd ! die alljährlich, zu jesus geburtstag erscheinende kompakt jubel cd, -pop ambient- kommt zwar in diesem jahr so spät wie ein legaler download, steht ihren vorgängern aber an schönheit und anmut in nichts nach

already supported by johnny d., someone else, laurent garnier, jennifer cardini, florian meindl, david keno.. erich lesovsky is the newest addition to stil vor talents exciting artist roster. here comes someone who is totally fascinated and absorbed by technology, someone who only performs as a live act in the clubs and - in the time of digital machinery - still works on constructing his own devices to make music with. after singles for wba and keno records, it is now the time for his first release on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent imprint and mr. lesovsky is very happy to be part of the family. so are we, of course! not only, but also because his first ep is a killer display of musical wizardry. it stars off with >bell a donna<, a minimal funk-laden piece of music that is mainly based on some crisp beats, many warm effects and sounds and a melody so simple, yet so encapsulating to capture the heart of every dancer in the club. this is oldskool minimal funk at its best! next up is >93 percent<, a title that might be misleading at first, because this track sounds more like 150 percent really. a great loop made of fidgety techno hi-hats and some wonderful warm analogue sounds - this could well be termed a new form of fidget techno. last up is >riot beatz<, an experimental display of minimal sound design, yet still very danceable. lots of crystal bashing beats, a pumping bass and many little effects - this will definitely be one for the dancefloor in the morning hours. not only does e. lesovsky seem a master of sound, his expertise seems to cover the perfect creation of warm, yet basic tech anthems and his influences seem to come from all sorts of musical directions, from hip-hop to funk to house back to techno. it is the easiness with which he delivers his music that makes his sound designs so special!

after 2 successful eps and massive remixes for metronomy and whomadewho its now time for more discodeine vinyl action. this third ep called tom select is definitly dedicated to the dancefloor... frankly, the track speaks for itself but if you need some influences lets say smith n hack/lfo/frankie bones... but you should know by now that discodeine is only sounding like discodeine right? the remixes are provided by some people that we admire for a long time: la horse (danton eeprom & ivan smagghe) and joakim. la horse provided a trippy remix, with live drums, electronic wizzardy and insanely beautiful pop harmonies while joakim is more on that nasty techno vibe we all love.

opening with orchestral provenance usual alternative has all the epic presence of a lord of the rings re enactment society annual dance and dinner. working up to the drop with classical samples before hitting with one of the heaviest basslines we ve heard all year (alright, its only january, thats not the point...).

rudolf has been on fire for the past few months, most notably with a solo album and a collaboration ep with partner in crime cesare vs disorder on pheeks acclaimed archipel label. this time he delivers the goods with delicacy, solid grooves and bouncy club music on his mind. the productions on this 4 tracker (one available only digital) all have a common feature: structured with beautiful, refined sounds. guitar improvisations here and there, soulful vocals in and out and deep basslines. the whole ep is decorated with an ongoing tribal feel, sexy, percussive rhythms and rubbery noises that tease the listener all the way through. this jackin and funky ep splits in the border between techno and house, and will instantly seduce clubbers all around the world.

rap sensation cerbral vortex (born in texas but really a citizien of the world) and new kid on the beatmachine erik l (born in stockholm but musically at home in the motor city) present >kitty cat kabbodle< a four track theme ep dealing with love, sex and relationships. featuring the one and only kissey asplund, singer stray and ezekiel 38. love, beats & rhymes - phresh for 2009. cerebral vortex is also making noise as one half of the two man club rap duo 215:the freshest kidz (who have a record out with rustie) and has just released the >vortex cookies< 12inch with robot koch on up my alley. artwork desgined by mike davis.

2003 classic! includes c rock mix!!

with his first release ever >space ok ep<, stephen hellm enters k-records with a serious statement.the lead track - space ok - combines classic synth parts with a rythmic drive, and bass in your face kick. creating an ambiant fit for the highlights of the evening. workflow is a peaktime stomper with an uplifting synth and stimulating percussion that will set many dancefloors on fire. without a doubt a must-play for all those hands-in-the-air-moments.where workflow left you on a laser-filled dance floor, brk-durch takes you deep below the surface of the earth. its a 10 minute trip with a dark and growling melody that gets inside your head, never letting you go. there should be a warning attached to this song, saying: >caution, only to be used in obscure clubs at times when getting freaky and decadent.<mastered by robert babicz aka rob acid !this release comes in a white black marbled vinyl, limited to 500 copies worldwide!.

6blocc drops some heavyweight science from his secret stash of personal dubs. soundsystem tested by the man himself, and sought after by scenesters the world over. these have been out via his digital 6 label on download only, but heres your chance to grab these on ltd vinyl release.

second vinyl version of the cd album with more magical works of unit moebius. including the funking >beat that perculator< re-arranging >i beat that bitch with a bat<, >its time for the perculator< and >the pressure cooker< into a totally dirty twisted the hague jack track! the flip side contains the more deeper side from their first releases. for those who were there in those years 91/ 92/ 93, at the famous parties in the hague and rotterdam, this is a walk down memory lane, for those to young or living in other parts of the world... imagine these tracks in a dark, very dark sweaty basement with only strobe light and smoke machines, camouflage nets, and jacking acid and techno sounds for more then 10 ours. djs such as i-f, serge, schmerzlabor, peter ptau ptau and live acts such as unit moebius played the hottest and freshest music all night long until you lost your sense of time and place and ended in a total mind trip. the pure essence of house and techno! the golden years.

getting massive support from mark farina, johnny fiasco, hardsoul, raul campos from kcrw, richard earnshaw, audio whores and groove junkies. salted music welcomes back the one and only lisa shaw with the 3rd single off her upcoming album free (march 10th, 2009). music in you is yet another solid and diverse dance music package with a little something for everyone out there. so whether you are a deep, techy, funky or soulful kinda music fan, there should be something of quality you can appreciate here.

dro & lodzy are not only talented videomakers, they also excel in the composition of music. they signed their first ep not yet now on absolut freak (adam sky, frederic de carvalho, slapstick). dilemn and gooseflesh did the remixes on the b side.

rotterdam den haag connection december 2050. this time david vunks moustache records delivers le crunch ep (previously announced as biersmijt ep), produced by the one and only mr. pauli. the a1 side features the new hit called le crunch, a high energy italo wave track that rock your pants off for sure. second is a spacerockdisco remix of le crunch that listens to the name i dont need the bad things you do to me remix made by our hardrocking man alden tyrell. on the flip theres the dancefloor killer metalbass. straight ahead extreme basslines with rolling grooves, and to finish it off der alte brings us strong melodies and even stronger basslines with beats from paulies good old friend the tr 808. this record is cutted by ome lex v. coeverden. 500 copies pressed! watch out! dont play this record underwater!

djs classic mastercut is a brand new label focused on releasing original material from timeless artists. our releases will be only for djs / limited edition / color vinyl and no promos. for this 3rd release, we bring you the best of the best & obviously the rarest 12 inches around! a side comes up with the great >scrappy - freeze< originally released in 1988 and for the first time the legendary limelight extended mix available (more than 8 mn of pure acid madness), this is the mix that was heavily played by the original chicago masters back in those days & if you need a record to bang a party, this is the right one. a cornerstone for todays timeless djs, even rvng intl aka tim sweeney compiled it in 2005.on b1, we have the infamous >pleasure zone - fantasy<, all about drums, acid & insane vocals from 1988. b2, >hercules - lost in the groove< done in 1987 by the wonderfull marshall jefferson, all about drums, claps and some timeless vocals circa chicago in the late 80s. this is almost a gospel track!

after several months of hard video- and filmwork, and several awards, french-vietnamese cutie tk.kim aka. pop-3 will finally release some new tracks, on vinyl and online, and by the way, she promised to release more stuff in 2009! so, the new release, chicks and cuts, with 8 tracks online and a 4-track vinyl 12, is definitely dancy, clubby and loud. definitely in the tradition of pop-3s former releases, that never perfectly fitted a precise music category and prove that tk.kim still refuses to be house, tec or minimal. shes all of them or none of them. and what does chicks and cuts sound like, then? boomy squeaking analog sequences combined with delicious samples of her sweet voice will delight the dancefloor, lo-fi audio splinters coming out of old analog drummachines play something like very reduced melodies, and well shaped bassdrums and deep synths will delight your tummies. the very minimal lyrics are in french, as usual. and, goodie: sonja moonear and akiko kiyama contribute with amazing remixes to this fine girls-only oeuvre, rhythmical and minimal but still very harmonious the one by akiko, deep and mysterious the one by sonja. and by the way, the cover is really sweet, people say.

alex bau aka basic implant says >only the hard ones!< and virgil enzinger is following that path. check it, its really real!

another outstanding double a side of the good stuff from one of our dj heroes, kelvin andrews a limited series of 12inchers. this label already released killer cuts from mark e, kelvin and a host of anonymous contributors. they have all sold out within a matter of days and become instantly collectable items! so, no 6 on the label is primed and ready to go - a duo of electronic delights from the dark corners of the disco screen printed picture sleeve limited edition as always, only one limited pressing will be available

first vinyl pressing of twin infinitives since the original vinyl issue in 1990. after moving to san francisco, royal trux released the highly experimental double album twin infinitives. this album remains an extreme work on the periphery of rock music, worthy of being compared to lou reeds metal machine music and suicides debut album. at only four subdivided tracks, none of which clock in under 15 minutes, the record has plenty of time to weave a mesmerizing web that is sometimes menacing, sometimes startling. for all of its high brow allusions, twin infinitives nearly reeks of vice, a dark, sordid feel pervades the record, and the listener can almost picture the band recording in a filthy apartment in the middle of the night in various states of intoxication and debauchery.

despite being launched in the early nineties, the incredible moton records inc 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 an undiscovered, lost classic. 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 superb three-tracker is another gem, featuring another trio of superb rarities. the quality is off the scale, the pressing is a one-off - you know what to do !

with the majority of deep electronic music being provided via europes minimal hive - berlin, its an enlightening prospect that one of belgiums key players in the scene is behind the musical direction of new imprint miconn records. having produced a string of successful remixes of artists including chab and bedrocks polefolder, whilst appearing regularly across his native club scene, it was only a matter of time before miquell santos turned his attention to a dedicated output for his music. whilst an exciting new remix of rennie fosters slamming >devils water< is being released in 2009 on rebirth, the debut release under his hermanez moniker is scheduled for an appropriate new year release on 12inch . turning his production to a more early morning vibe, >gold coast< is a carefully selected debut of crisp deep house beats with just enough wonky additions for even the most demanding of minimal heads

finally here is the soulphiction album in special limited edition of only 500 (!) vinyls with special gatefold cover and heavy packaging!

neo-trance theme !!! angels of kindness are seesawing in their fluffy clouds while eavesdropping the new opus - and yes, one can easily call it an opus - of catekk. dunning the sound creeps up (up from the viennese flex club?) through this mundane labyrinth. muse awakened the apocalyptic riders with its kiss and instead of the twilight of gods you are served subtle grooves, which only admit zeus sharp lightning to pass through the thunderclouds of bass. thunderstorm and labyrinth makes, how could it else be? a markus lange remix, who obviously enjoyed remixing this big theme, while following catekks traces in the wind. whos still missing? yes, newbornchristians must be around, when it comes to remixes with the perfect relation between foolishness and intelligence.

last time we got hertz on q-records we did not only sell a lot of records, dj misjah and adam beyer also used the tracks on mix-cds. this time he is back, fresh for 2008. the a-side is a groovy piece, were the <groove doctor> himself let you get a portion for the groove la chord-feeling. massive in the arrangement and truly funky! the b-side is a bit different. b1 is very straightforward with very fat beats and a twisted sound that is building. b2 get thoughts over to the joris voorn-style. // special restock !!

this sophomore gogo music release includes next to ralf gum’,s interpretations as well shanas original version. while shana liked ralf gums timeless reworks that much that they instantly put them as bonus tracks on their freshly released album forever yours, which just has been released in south africa on their own label. true talents from different continents building a perfect symbiosis - and: true talent not only stands the test of time: it stands out in its own time, rising above competition to connect with an audience and establish its own original voice. we invite you to enjoy with us the pleasures of african modern sounds - be sure to check it out!
