on this next vinyl edition from flapjack records, we take a minute to recognize a time in u.s. history when alcohol was made illegal. this time was called prohibition and was a very sad time for casual drinkers, but an amazingly profitable time for bootleggers and underground party goers. this theme fits right in with this straight out of the toilet distilled dance record from house music recluse francis jilla. >these boots are made for jackin ep< is the brand that underground house goers trust most to get fired up, while other moonshiners bring in the least.

these days is proud to announce the signing of the mysterious venezuela-born, 20 year-old artist moony me, currently living in munich. his disco-influenced pop-house track filled the label’s office with so much love that we couldnt resist giving it a proper release and at the best possible moment for the spring-time.on the remix duties, label owner and house music protagonist argy crafted a much heavier and u.k.rave inspired dance-floor destroyer that is applicable to almost every moment of the night and anywhere in the world.for those who are into more new-school balearic atmospheres combined with old school new york style bass-lines, quell delivered a remix which once played at the right time, may change peoples lives.it changed ours.

super peak time excellence from the italian duo – >i decide…< is a bassline led groove and a half with flecks of melody adding impetus to the track. flip sides >hyperdub< is a 9 minute journey of pure breakbeat excellence

clone classic cuts serves another cult italo disco classic! gorgeous female vocals slapped on that lovely 80 s synthesizer/drum programming. this is one of those releases that easily makes it into the top 50 of all time greatest italo disco songs. produced by roberto ferrante (also known for his pinneaples project) and originally released on the obscure airport label in 1984. we managed to restore and re-master the original versions and the lovely paris mix. on top of the original versions we serve you a new re-rub by italian italo specialist bottin (eskimo, artifacts etc). bottin did a great job with a new crazy soundhack mix that cranks up the energy level and makes it more jackin. pretty amazing when you realize that these tracks are making people dance for 28 years now. more then enough reason for a proper re-release on high quality vinyl. enjoy!

saved regular ross evana returns to the label with the monstrous >these sounds<, a vocal infused future classic that cannot be ignored. combining an infectious groove with devastatingly catchy vocals the lead single will slip with ease into any djs box and remain there for years to come.
continuing with the quality expected of a saved release, gregor tresher makes his debut on the label, presenting his take on the lead single and adding a flavour to the original that only he knows how.

it is not about knowledge only, academic or otherwise, it is and has always been more about understanding each thing for what it is, what it stands for and its origins. this is definitely the case with quell, who has been a friend of the these days records since the very beginning. after the artists collaboration with argy under the these days in-house project moniker >club lonely<, this is his first personal ep for the label. drawing influences from a few distant chronologically, yet classic styles of dance music, starting from disco-flavored house all the way to friendly nods at kerri chandler, ron trent, chez damier and the earlier period of new york citys ibadan records, >perception ep< blends all of them together in a most elegant and mature way. amidst the plethora of the house music sound recent revival, quell presents a very complete and solid proposal, which shows that he adores as much as he comprehends the connections between the past, present and future of this music

mule music happy to announce the joe claussell remix of kuniyuki >all these things<. we have been waiting almost 4 years…. we have asked him when we were going to make the remix package kuniyuki-remixed. now finally his remix is arrived! joe claussell invited his favorite instrument player and let them re-performance the original version of kuniyuki. the remix is 22min which is composed of 7 parts.the first half is quiet and beautiful,then after the speech of martin luther king during the break,then emotional second half come. we think this great remix is one of the best work of joe claussell. on b side,kuniyuki made self ambient version. the painting of record sleeve is by kuniyuki father! so dont miss this beautiful record.

paul hughes and aruba teaming up for this latest offering from siesta music. >these days< is a lush late night groover, combining a rich bassline with a drifting vocal stab, tight beats, and dubby chords for some quality deep house. aruba adds a little old skool flavor to his >those drumz mix< via new analog synth lines and a new bassline, while the beats, now more of a tribal rhythm, still keep the floor crowds moving. the >those nights mix< will throw you all off, with the track slowed to a crawling skank with a deep bassline and recliner beats pitting wits with a slowed down take of the vocal.

records like this dont come very often. thankfully it seems there are still people out there who care enough to create beautiful projects and timeless music. after the ingenious june white label came out last summer, these days records office fell in love with it and without wasting any time rushed to contact the mysterious artist and propose an album. although well-hidden in a secret back-alley of west london where june lives and dreams music, his unique approach on acid house, synth wave, chicago house and 80s nostalgia was too good to be left unnoticed and has been favored by people such as panorama bars steffi, mathematicss owner hieroglyphic being, terre thaemlitz and the clone record store to name but a few. almost half a year after his >alleviation< ep, junes debut album >cytheria< has been realized and features a 12inch sampler with two brand new tracks and two remixes by critically acclaimed dj sprinkles on one of junes older tracks >lost area<. terre thaemlitz aka dj sprinkles, who has been well renowned for his contributions in music and arts in general for the past two decades, delivers an epic remix that takes one to a forgotten musical territory somewhere between early warp records, hacienda, 80s new york club sound and older balearic music. the albums cd version includes 10 new songs and 4 from the artists back catalogue and retains a great balance between dance floor orientated tracks and synth-pop.

ultraphat raw and dirty detroit / chicago / acidhouse cuts

ultraphat raw and dirty detroit / chicago / acidhouse cuts

cooler detroit house der alten schule !!!

the mighty d knox graces sect with a second ep, >looking through your eyes<.
>at the beginning< is a journey in the way good techno tracks should be. a low-slung groove forms the foundation as strings build, creating composite chords then descending into darker territory.
>if i never knew you< continues the unique and oh-so-delicately balanced melodic sequences, while >out there< is straight up techno funk of the first order. if these guitar licks dont move ya on the dancefloor, you have problems we cant help you with.
>on my way< is a gift for the more experienced techno dj. tricky beats work to create something like a latin shuffle, rounded off by a sonic mind manifesto vocal.

these days presents an impressive compilation of six drum tools/beats on a single 12inch especially made for dj use. our favorite beat-makers, from radio slave to marlon d and jerome sydenham, contribute exclusive drum moments from new-school new york to more chicago jacking and techno. comes with a beautifully curated nostalgic 90s cover. essential!

johan gielens new release >these are my friends is made for those who like to groove. based on an addictive theme, the record really tyakes the audience on a trip to one of those classic breaks that will make everybody scream. the entire track cn be easily filed under >balearic<.
>blow it all away by cor fijneman is a terrific vehicle for his production skills. the vocals, the incredible arrangement and atmosphere of the track as a whole, its deep, moving and comes with a stunningly beautiful break that grows like a classical symphonic composition. vocal trance at its finest.

nice price deal !!! brooklyns these are powers are at the frontier of noise rock, and yet call back to the earliest days of industrial before its metal infusion. the trios lyrics and jerky beats let go of every musical inhibition ever invented, creating an atmosphere thats slightly sexual and always uncomfortable.

these sounds fall in to my mind ... big classic back on vinyl ..

second part of the much talked-about universal consciousness series. on one side, stephen brown, the artist responsible for some of the best releases on derrick mays transmat label, makes his 2010 comeback with an uncompromising and stunningly beautiful piece of detroit techno. on the flipside, club lonely, a these days in-house production moniker for jam sessions that happened in the labels studio between friends, presents a tribute to n.y club shelter. the track focuses on a bassline driven groove in timmy regisford fashion while on the b2 the vocals are muted for those who would like to use the track as a tool. space techno meets n.y dancers. universal consciousness

2009 was a great year for these days records, and 2010 promises to be even better. the platform stood out for its innovative yet functional club sound and unique artwork concepts. the new year begins with a new split series under the name universal consciousness, based on the idea of connection between all things, and that all things have been coordinated, and they combine to make up the same universe. the first part is dedicated to two very different takes on spiritual, cosmic space techno. on the a-side argys >sometimes im blind< generates a long and uplifting emotional climax, which features a solo that will forever stay in your heart. the track was recorded at the end of 2008, and despite numerous offers to release the record elsewhere, nothing was finalised and the recording never saw the light of day. soon after the birth of his own label, it naturally fit the platform and seemed a perfect way to start the new year. on the flip side, sheffield born alexander ross, brings forth a cavernous techno piece awash with reverberation and spacial echos that brings a driving yet non the less emotionally captivating moment perfectly in balance with the depth of the a-side.

already played by karotte & tobi neumann !!! the initial these days trilogy concludes with a collection of works and remixes of new york artist and resident filsonik. >diva jaguar< is a deep and mosaic journey which weaves vibrant percussion between subtle textured pads and flowing melodic synths to create a unique spiritual moment. raw elements of the original are extracted and distilled to leave an organic, hypnotic flow in these days beats version. argys tool version of filsoniks >can u< features on the flip side as an absolute percussive dancefloor groove. alexander ross takes >diva jaguar< in a completely different direction with a soaring, spacial cut which layers a driving beat and echoing, dubbed synths over bass and textures from the original !!!

jerrald james aka jerry the cat musical career is a typical example for detroit music of the last decades having played percussions with parliament and disco outfit cj & company he early came in contact with the first wave of detroit house and techno producers and began to experiment with these new sounds. his productions today are still evident for the unique mixture of detroit soul history and futuristic electronics. therefore this new sound signature is exemplary for the detroit sound as it skillfully fuses the free flowing jazz inflected vocals of genevieve with jerralds rootsy percussions play, accoustic live bass and a skanking, hypnotic house beat. flip over for the dubby instrumental track vanished

dave clarke, britisches techno-urgestein der ersten stunde, trŠgt seine spannendsten remixes seiner jŸngsten, amsterdamer schaffensphase auf einem album zusammen. wie Ÿblich ist die vielfalt der original interpeten bemerkenswert und reicht von punk bis new beat und von aktuellen hip artists bis leider lŠngst aufgelšsten bands. dave clarke ist bekannt dafŸr, die original-intention der kŸnstler stets beizubehalten, obwohl er den tracks neue gewŠnder von techno bis electro, von aalglatt bis futuristisch und von dark bis heavy verpasst, was seine remixes fŸr fischerspooner oder depeche mode zu zeitlosen kult klassikern werden lie§. die soundpalette der kollektion charcoal eyes: a selection of remixes from amsterdam deckt diese gesamte stilistische bandbreite hervorragend ab.
