nice equipment for your office...

3rd release for oscar on tape select imprint with that special appeal to enchant the floor.

it is about time for a record from label founder dario zenker. dont ask why it took so long, but be sure it wasnt the last one. and what a record this is, after several great releases on labels like vakant, harry klein records or time to express, dario’s debut on his own imprint is another example for his unique and mature sound. his studio just as his music has grown over the years. 10 am sounds like an earthquake, raw and dirty, it builds up so much energy that even babensham starts to shake. farrel on the other side is best described as deep break beat techno. it shows the diversity of darios productions and diversity combined with a certain signature is a great mix in our opinion. so enjoy it or not, dance or put your hands in your pockets, share some love or be a hater, no matter what we like u.

lover. fighter. prophet. freak magnet. time-traveler. musician, photographer and designer jimmy edgar is a wayward prodigy streaking across the cosmic dance-floor. in 2001 at the tender of 18, his hyper-sexed microchip stylings caught the ear of warp, where he cranked out his brand of amped-up laptop funk for the next eight years, culminating in the full-length classic >color strip< (2006). now 26, edgar is shaking things up at !k7. on new turf, edgars sonic prowess takes on a leaner, more radio-ready shine and what edgar does essentially and very well is make your body move.

>sindbad, sindbad, look how much luck this children has...< who doesnt know this unforgetable earwick of the eponymous cartoon, which was showed the first time in 1978 in germany. for tom toddnick the composer christian bruhn turns out the old audio tape from his cellar. tom did new mixes and pimped it with stylish house beats. the >1001-nacht-mix< (7:45) only exclusive distributed on vinyl.

the buzz has been around for some time, but now its getting real! the recently created cologne label magazine will release its debut record >cologne tape.< until now, they have made their appearances almost hidden, but it might not be too far-fetched to refer to them as a kind of supergroup: cologne tape are ada, axel willner (the field), joerg burger (modernist, burger & voigt), philipp janzen (von spar), john stanier (battles), jens-uwe beyer (popnoname)

steve summers is back with his third ep, this time around for greeces echovolt label. summers continues to play with his main inspirations, the energy and grit of hardy tape edits, melodies of larry heard, and deep bass tones of william s. this four track ep manages to capture a feeling of experimentation and authenticity thats often missing in modern dance music. strong 12 with timeless chicago house tracks! very cool!

full artwork sleeves. electronic / dubstep label kinnego records started by boxcutter out of northern ireland is back! after the success of the first release (by boxcutter himself) he introduces the masses to a producer named space dimension controller... the techno funk alias of 19 year old jack hamill. following on perfectly from boxcutter and kinnego fluxs a familiar sound on kgo001, it features 2 tracks of deep, loved up electro. equally inspired by both the tape warped soundtrack to garth merenghis darkplace and early aphex twin, jacks all analogue production gives his tracks a timeless sound thats a mile away from contemporary electro and house. the beats are low slung and funky, and the melodies are addictive and show a natural flair. on the love quadrant, a girl / boy vocal exchange sets the scene while the track builds momentum, before the whole thing spaces off on a sweet minimoog solo. on the flip, electropod 250 collision has a deep 808 pulse and flanged bass, topped off with detroit inspired melodies and blurred out reverbs.

plastique de rêves new single on david carrettas label space factory disques follows up on last years fantastic release on dfa with its summer !!, a perfect techno-pop summer hit with another great feature by vocalist ghostape, and dives further into the realms of electrodisco, synth-pop, and cosmic music. ultra synthetic and light-hearted, yet dreamy and emotional, the three tracks (four on the digital release) each capture with authenticity the essence of electronic disco music but pay tribute to it here in a very original, playful and modern way. its summer !! is a great follow-up to plastique de rêves previous singles on dfa and supersoul recordings, also featuring ghostape on vocals. this time the music goes even deeper into the worlds of synth-pop and electronic disco, with reminiscences of vince clarkes yazoo, giorgio moroder or kelley polar. the sunny, laidback, pop radio atmosphere, together with ghostapes emotional build up of the deliberately simplest lyrics ever written so far, might well keep you smiling, and dancing, all summer.

yore returns with yet another deep master piece. javier alvarez, a madrid based producer and proprietor (along with his younger brother dubbyman) of the underground label deep explorer music, brings his relaxed above smoke sound to the yore imprint. in the first of four warm and atmospheric mood pieces, awfully drapes dense synthetic winds over a deliciously grooving, bass prodded deep house pulse. get down does exactly that with five funky minutes of rhodes chords, disco hi hats, and synth swirls, a percolating bass line lends the track a propulsive charge, while crowd voices give the cut a party vibe. on the b sideÆs ôthe fixö javier scatters chopped fragments of the spoken line, i ve got a lot of shit to say and i cant say it all in one day, i cant say it all on one piece of tape, over a funk house groove, after which dubbyman offers variations on the theme in his remix of the track, dubbymans version digs deeper into the cuts bass science and warms the tunes slinky pulse with hand percussion and claps. old school in its embrace of classic house sounds, above smokes ep is tailor made for those who like their material laid back, groove centered, and funky.

coole geldbörse ... im style einer musik-kassette

played by karotte, giles smith (secretsundaze), laurent garnier... already up to its 17th release, yore keeps rolling on, this time with a new release by memory foundation. in 1994 robert hood found his way into a dark basement somewhere in viennas suburbia. mr. hood was impressed by what he had heard, and with him a dat-tape took a long journey back to where techno was invented once. with their first appearance on detroits m-plant label 15 years ago, the memory foundation or one of their many alter egos found its way into the hearts and the record-bags of many serious electronic music lovers. in 1997, after setting up their own record labels central and together with jeremiah grow! and other releases on m-plant, 7th city or usm followed. the memory foundation now returns with their contribution for the yore camp, with their >reptiles in exile ep< they prove that they havent lost their magic touch. the track burns with electro-funk fire, with natural kit and cymbal sounds giving the already-surging cut extra thrust and the staccato burble of metallic chords adding berlin flavour. a lithe eight-note bass motif anchors the warm techno-funk of >bass traveller< as a flaring synth motif squiggles alongside rhodes chords and a boogieing clavinet line, and its easy to become so engrossed by the tunes relaxed swing that the artistry of its arrangement can go underappreciated. textbook body music, >summer visions< is an earthier, mid-tempo funk workout thats sure to get the dance floor crowded, while the light-speed closer >reptiles< blazes a slinky house trail whose fresh swing has got yore written all over it. with any luck, we wont be waiting twelve more years for the next memory foundation release

it s time for the magic number 7 on microtonal! moenster and end of tape team up for maximum impact and deliver 3 stunning pieces of nowadays dancemusic. arrriba!

some would say the chicken lips label is long overdue, but lipservice is worth the wait as it promises the very best from augmented cl clan of dean meredith, andy meecham, stevie kotey and johnny spencer - a collective who have remixed just about everyone, spawned a thousand copycats and destroyed a few floors in the process. the inaugural lipservice release sees the chaps unleash zeefungk, one of their most popular and rare guises. the a-side is occupied by >robot eyes< - a splendid slice of electro-disco-funk which is vintage chicken lips. acid bass and loose drums combine with keys which progress wonderfully to create a really special piece of dancefloor tomfoolery. next up is >feast of freeks< (stevie koteys tape edit), a new edit of a track featured on the bands now-classic >extended play< album but never released as a 12inch. the bearfunk main man and all round gent delivers a tweaky, driving uptempo disco monster which climaxes in some trademark kotey madness. >robot lips< closes the packages and displays more of the guys unreal keyboard work as the groove stays steady but the hands go hyper. riddled with vintage synth work, >robot lips< is heads down business and no mistake.

animal language is a new label from mason. having burst onto the scene with their groundbreaking ‘exceeder’, a tune that went on to destroying dance floors and tearing it up the charts in 2006, the foundations have been set for the dutch pairing of iason and coen to create a platform for more forward-thinking music. the mason sound follows a simple method. their understanding of melody and a canny ability to fuses it with technological know-how, sheer musicianship and dance floor savvy creates dance music for the thinking man, but not so clever to be alienating and dull

nice price deal !!! great electrofied disco mover !!

supported by dubfire, davide squillace, rino cerrone, mark henning, mihalis safras. naples based artist gianni pellecchia, well known for his releases on loose or minisketch, with his first solo ep on bauns music onda tape has a deep, liquid atmospheric feel. the lead bass rotor and the easy rhythmical line of muler creates a sonoric winding which culminates when a darkness laugh sample breaks off the pause to restart shaking heads. powerful! allergico is a well done example of drum embedding and sound de/construction. a funky techno bay with coloured melodic reefs! mnemonic has an excellent hypnotic minimal groovin tech style, organic beats meets mindsweeping melodies, and the dark laugh crosses the reef again. a pure dope for your escaping from chaos. thats onda tape!

nach dem ersten killer-release geht es hier mit chicago gefärbten techno munter weiter

the original mix of tape replay is nearly nine minutes long and can only be described as a journey. its the perfect transition track, able to turn minimal sets into future disco, a house set into electro-funk, a techno set into a live jam-a-thon or a rigid set of any kind (like too many these days) into something with emotional depth. for remix duties we have enlisted our favorite producers will saul & tam cooper from simple records. much like their tech-house revision of phoniques bang, recently released on dessous, here on fresh meat they have put together a subtle yet bassy response to the wow & flutter original. the track builds and builds and at about three fourths through it explodes with lush keys, rich pads and a breakdown thats executed perfectly. these gents are on point and we are more than excited to have them along for the trip.

maria fresca is a project by franco cinelli and dario zenker, which is based on a true live musical experience. since they met the first time and smoked a couple of blunts, theyve thought about working something out together. and here is the result. spaced, dubbed out kickless journeys through their musical universes, like timothy learys housekeeping woman from the french alps on rollerblades. where is the kick? the basedrum? well, if it doesnt show up, dont wait for it because there wont come any. dance music without basedrum seems useless to you? if you think so, just listen to that cut really carefully and you wont even recognize that there isnt one. the rhythm is the main theme here

dario zenkers new label !! ralph sliwinski is allready known from his releases on labels like below, morris audio or hartchef discos and surely for a good reason. he is one of the producers who have their own unique style which is recognizable directly. analog old school sounding beats fat as the women of the us mc donalds promotion campaign. this ep is smoove,dubby,crispy,housy,gay, played by usher and all other westcoast rappers around…

lee van dowski, the mastermind of the incredible label num records and also known from his releases on cadenza, soma, num, 60 sec and many others hooks up with the young rising newcomer dachshund which is also already known from his releases on num, num ltd and 60 sec. the two swiss heroes deliver us two impressive cuts which will send us on a creamy road here. it not needs any more description, does it?
