striking about the 12-inch is the way it was done. the basement is the track >hammering<, a techno track that uses a sample of a work song from an historical recording dating from the 1930s. the swinging-souly voices are combined with a clear and funky beat that pushes you forward, and you wont forget the voice for a long time, even after the track has been listened to multiple times.after that anthony shake shakir created a remix that afterwards was again remixed by splits & slits.

the proposition is a simple one. it was a 2009 when julio bashmore first remixed >heartbreaker< from deadboys classic first release - the >u cheated< ep on well rounded.
he remoulded the garage template of the original into something more immediate, replacing the swung off-beats of the original with driving forward-rhythms and a clarity of purpose that takes absolutely nothing away from the musical impact of the original. this circulated on mp3 and we smiled and danced.
unexpectedly, in 2010 jb returned to >heartbreaker< for a different interpretation. this time around a more haunting approach was the order of the day with cross-fading strings creating a soulful, otherworldly atmosphere. the drop this time also swapped sub bass for punchy 808s. a tantalising further alternative that pointed the way to this vinyl release.

the mysterious rod enterns the balans arena with an uncompromising, abstract techno affair. little can we tell you about this mysterious character. only that a famous dj from rodterdam is behind this alter ego and that he did a very well received ep on ben klocks klockworks earlier this year.
the music coming from this persona is one hundred percent puristic, stripped down, dj tool techno. with a capital t you have seen that right! no nonsense hypnotism as we rarely see it nowadays. three or four sounds per track, each pushed and stretched inside out for maximum result. these tunes are made for dark, strobe lid cellars or underground techno temples such as berghain.
techno is back and this is about as abstract and underground as it gets. we look forward to release more rod records in the future.

so we went predominanlty stateside for our last outing, and decided to bring things back home this time. hoya003 is a strictly uk affair. opening up on the a-side is one of rudest producers and djs the uk has going for it. this aint a comment on her manners though, they are as impeccable as her production. after ikonika sent us a zip of some hoya potentials, we just knew >fleas< had to be the one featured on this 12 inch. a more sinister, rolling, emotional jam, it still packs as much as punch as ikonikas dj sets. kicking off the b-side is the homie om unit. now, this guy … this guy. are there any superlatives left to desribe his sonic masterpieces that have rocked too many dancefloors and had as many producers scratching their heads and re-assessing their mix-downs? an instant favourite, >fibonnaci 10< was one of the earliest cuts lined up for a release and when you listen you will see why. this guy. seriously. bringing things to a close, we hand over to one of our favourites from the flourishing cardiff scene. why doesnt monky have more music out? is one of those questions that has been asked too many times for our liking. so much so, we may have to take it upon ourselves to change that. but, for now, just enjoy >hipster<. a killer synth-laden nod to early ukg, but looking forward as opposed to sideways. enjoy.

one of the founding members of the ostgut ton family, marcel dettmann recorded his debut 12inch for the label alongside ben klock with >dawning< some five years ago. now after a string of highly praised releases, his debut album >dettmann<, and a handful of uncompromising records on his own mdr label, we arrive at this new ep for his home label. launching us into the space-race, >barrier< documents those tense moments of discovery as we reach into new territories. dettmanns unique textured sound design sets the scene before diving into >translation one< - a frantic, quivering and snaking snapshot into the kind of techno the producer stands for these days. metallic bass spins sideways, while ever-modulating percussion drives forward. the sinister sci-fi tones of >translation two< warble and jive in glorious syncopation as a systematic heavy kick and hat program works the bass frequencies and rhythmic zones. open and spacious, its meandering theme hangs deliciously between paranoia and positivity. in >planning< dettmann further explores his inclination for intricate, tripping synth patterns. a staggered, wonderfully immersive theme builds from delayed staccato notes in a classic analog sequence, underpinned by rumbling dub bass pressure

tripmastaz is a name that has been steadily pushing forward his career in the past year, with his latest works on be as one, moon harbour, cecille, and magnetic recordings (complete with a loco dice remix) been heavily supported by the djs gang out there now, andrew is debuting with a full ep on be as one, after his appearance on the latest tools for school vol.3 compilation. house syndrome opens the ep with a bang - truly an infectious tech house stormer for the big stages, which is already championed by the a-list djs constant learning is a proper tribal techno affair that combines a rolling groove with a catchy melody, an uplifting summery mood. on the b side tripmastaz takes things into deeper territories with quiet hit men, an acidic bassline worked around a machine groove as andrew knows to deliver. pende (dub) closes this ep with an underground attitude, a tune that will be noticed by those looking for a special moment on the floor

his single comes to people that make the music records from one of house musics most eminent production teams: first ibiza lady alla farmer, mateo & matos and ukrainian singer and producer vincent inc, chris gray from deep4life, jazzy house veteran john crockett and uplifting deep king brendan mccarthy aka aquatherium. though not stereo-typically their style, this set of tunes give good credence to their soft house music production ability. they set the scene for sounds entering as a funky bassline, squealy guitar riff, and classic 4/4 drum loop. john remix consist mainly of dubby bubbly conga rhythms, cosmic chords, floaty synths, musical saw tones and a nice rubbery bassline. aquatherium remix is pure non-intrusive, house music that is great for the sunset beach session or even the roller disco! chris & alla made eclectique deep house which is just a dope! the remixed single tracks have been mixed together to give it a beefy blend that would be perfect for the floor of many poorly lit dance dwellings. people that make the music has stepped forward with a brilliant ep of insatiable grooves.

after the success for our first rhythm section re-issue in the form of >coming on strong<, we are pleased to announce number two, a re-issue of the classic cut >atomic bass<. back in 1991 it perfectly captured the mood of the times as a priceless dance-floor weapon. a must have for any serious breakbeat hardcore dj. fast-forward to 2011 with original copies reaching crazy second hand prices, its time for some remix action.

screwloose is all about gripping basslines that tear dance floors apart. this release features a wonderfully original d&b track by loko along with a beast of remix by koan sound. what makes this a great release is the fact that the two tracks are a real contrast, both at very different tempos and styles. both tracks are pushing d&b/dubstep/bass music forward.

nice price deal !!! pawas, well known for his amazing deep tech productions on night drive music, ostwind and mina, comes with two more forward going tech tunes like his release on brise004. ostwind spezi 007 brings us hypnotic grooves and chords spiced up with little breaks. these sounds make the dhamaal ep to a sure shot for every dj.

with over ten years production experience, the proverbial bar of expectations has been set high for smash tv aka holger zilske and kai preussner and their forthcoming release steroids to heaven. first up on this celebrated ep is steroids to heaven, a glitchy tech house number with an astonishingly catchy bassline, reticulated with a mass of synthesized effects and an intriguing vocal sample. pitched drums and a grooving, energetic bassline conspire with one another in made for eachother driving the track forward alongside a sliced vocal sample which, after a beautifully housy breakdown, is given its full debut. judging from this fine release, smash tv is still in top form, ready and able to set the bar of expectations even higher for 2011.

delivered here is phillip charles >controlled input< ep. a collection of phillips music as orignal as it is danceable. while the tracks contain unifying elements, they each stand very clearly apart in their own sound. as we move towards 2011 reference points of mathew jonson, carl craig and redshape spring to mind, but make no mistake... this release is in a sonic space all its own. a true gem for lovers of forward thinking techno and house.

the word genius is not a term we like to use loosely when speaking about our artists but giorgio sancristoforo aka tobor experiment fits the bill. a gifted musician, soft synth designer, found sound pioneer and he still finds time to make forward thinking disco pop for bearfunk as tobor experiment >disco experience<.
after a well received ep in 2008 we sent giorgio back to the studio with the remit to make an lp so special that it could open new doors for us. well he certainly delivered! opening with the sweet modern disco sounds of >postcards from a nervous breakdown< we then get the first taste of giorgios song writing prowess with >breathe< a rather intense little number.

the boston based alternative rock band buffalo tom formed in 1986. the band around singer/ guitarist bill janovitz became one of the more popular alternative rock bands by the mid 1990s. the 1992 album let me come over was truly the great leap forward for the band, sounding richer, more imaginative, and more emotionally powerful than anything they d recorded before.

supported by. laurent garnier, gregor tresher, audiojack, maxime dangles, chris wood. after releasing their second album sand hills in april, piemont pushes forward with a remix edit sand hills remixes due july 20th, available on vinyl as well as digitally on their own imprint suchtreflex. rather than asking around for remixes they invited artists that they really respect to give it another touch and you can feel it! hugo (tuning spork / mobilee) remixes rundown in a slow and sexy house with an element of latin percussion and melody grafted on by 4/4. tuning spork and contexterior label owner jay haze makes the track with small pupiles a bumpy version with original breaks as only he knows how to do. the spanish, uner (diynamic) get his hands on instead of multiple adding his own twist, organic sounds and classic beats. you definitely feel his classical background. philipp aka sante fine-tunes the track self of sense. some nice and fresh remixes!!

scoring the soundtrack of a new electronic frontier, the young new yorker named artist to watch of 2011 by mixmag and dj mag, m a n i k delivers a prototype debut album >armies of the night< for josh winks ovum recordings. as the trend for stateside dance music continues to take hold, nyc born and bred m a n i k propels it further forward with a sublimely original album. stitched together by ovum creator, josh wink, >armies of the night< is a continuous ebb of energy that continues to surprise as it gains momentum.

the index is a project by two of new york city s underground music pioneers, raz mesinai aka badawi and dub war founder dave q. the label centers on original badawi productions at the intersection of dub and modern composition, as well as new works and remixes by some of the most forward-thinking artists at the outer limits of dubstep and experimental electronica. the first release was 2010 s head-melting el topo / dstry all pfrfts team-up with shackleton, and this second entry finds badawi reviving new york s dystopian hip hop lineage via a collaboration with the legendary mc sensational of jungle brothers and wordsound fame. no schnitzel is a militant, mind-bending half-step rhythm that sensational weaves in and out of, creating a new form of dubstep-hip hop hybrid with a unique bad apple flavor. the dubbed-out version strips it down to the instrumental roots, while flipside more schnitzel goes deeper into abstracted acid dubstep for the more adventurous soundsystem selectors.

what hypercolour does best is to consistently release forward-thinking and interesting electronic music so its fitting that the label celebrates its 20th full hypercolour release and 5th anniversary with a simple 12 inch ep that displays the labels exciting and irreverent take on house and techno

proper heat slid onto the nangsphere last year with their nifty >we are ready< ep. they certainly were… good reception all around and some fine plaudits. fast forward on 6 months and we are really pleased that the follow up >move ep< hits the streets. proper heat are from lithuania and are made up of martin virgin, saxtone and some fine vocals from karolis ramoska. laid-back, accessible disco house is the order of the day with this ep. we have two finely voiced tracks. dulcet tones and catchy songs abound with karolis doing a fine job in the voice department. lead track >the move” is mid tempo groover. mixes from nang label new-long-found-friend james bright and label stalwart (and supertop photographer) ichisan… you are always a subject when you are in the same room as this guy…. snap snap snap. james grooves it up with tight synthy bass and ichisan gets electronic and rolling. you can check out the video for >the move< on youtube and our home page too. the equally able >get ready< also makes a strerling appearance on the ep. another fine disco groovoid song. all in all the package overflows with extra dubs and instrumentals. bountiful disco abounds.

following his two recent singles on scubas hotflush recordings, london based george fitzgerald is back with his much-anticipated third release and his debut for aus music. titled silhouette, the three-track ep includes two originals and a remix from american producer john roberts. fitzgerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, r&b and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. on silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and fitzgeralds signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. reset is eight minutes of forward thinking uk garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of detroit techno. for the silhouette remix, roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on dial records, glass eights. a breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment. in addition to silhouette, fitzgerald currently has remixes out for french house producer brawther on secretsundaze and uk bass artist throwing snow, as well as an upcoming ep on hotflush and a track on the labels recent compilation, back and 4th. this year will also bring the founding of man make music, a new label fitzgerald is starting with friends.

as the producer responsible for some of lil b and soulja boys weirdest, most inventive beats, and following on from a critically acclaimed, self released mixtape of instrumentals collected from his work over the years with various forward thinking hip hop artists, tri angle is very excited to announce the release of >rainforest<, the debut ep by clams casino. the five songs that make up >rainforest< find clams casino (aka 23 year old new jersey native, michael volpe) refining his ethereal, otherworldly sound, whilst taking it to a heavier and more intense extreme. what has set clams casino apart from most other hip hop producers is his skill in making records that sound just as good, if not better, instrumentally as they do with vocals, and if anyone needed it, >rainforest< represents the confirmation of this. its a record drenched in mysterious atmospherics, like a foggy memory of a far off exotic place, the details buried beneath the mist of distortion, but present nonetheless. none of the songs on >rainforest< have ever been released before, and in contrast to most of his other productions these songs have always existed purely as instrumentals, free of any vocal presence. >rainforest< is an incredibly powerful release which signals the beginning of clams casino coming into his own and operating as an important artist in his own right

nice price deal !!! the emergence of (another) very british sound in the form of dubstep some years back now has mutated into something altogether more cerebral. the chain are a product of this incipient sound and the many new strands that have splintered forward from it. dan foat is one half of the team that runs r&s, the newly invigorated label that is back at the forefront of contemporary electronic music. he’s also one half of the chain. dan & nathan boddy have for a while now had a studio near london bridge, which has formed into the r&s engine room, a hub for the second wave of their artists, pariah, james blake, space diimension controller et al who regualrly pass through the basement to drink tea and listen to new tracks.

behind nomaton hides one of uppsalas true techno veterans. erik möller made himself a global name in the beginning of 2000 as the stripped down house musics champion with releases on labels including force tracks and sub static. he has played all over the world - from ibiza to tbilisi, and the audience at the legendary berlin clubs ostgut and watergate has been able to dance to his live sets. as unai his subtle technopop was hailed by all sorts of camps: from new york times to the wire, from house-djs to to pop connoisseurs. as he now comes forward with a new name, it is very much a return to roots. with nomaton he takes us on a trip to the dark heart of techno. a heavy-bass thumping heart full of dirty basslines, grinding rhythms and ecstatic minimalism.

>i can see< by the oliverwho factory is the second release of german label couldnt care more (following stareaways - learn how to love me) and its just marvellous: the duo from detroit, who by the way runs the stunning label madd chaise inc. and recently released >galactic transit< on rush hour and >night lights< on planet e, delivers finest detroit tech deep house with a twist, that will make you wave your arms and scream on the dancefloor. while the basic track is voluminously wafting and rawly pushing forward vocalist shone tops it with her power- and soulful singing. both tracks are mastered straight to the point by a.o.s.. classic.

the adventurous, forward-thinking sound of >aerobics in space< was the perfect fit for the flip side of this serato pressings. international tastemaker gilles peterson said on his bbc radio 1 show that the song >reminds me of jean luc pontys in the fast lane. it was a kind of a crazy, ahead-of-its-time tune, and this track is all over that vibe. i m loving it!<
pommer & barck have each been rocking the dance music scene for over a decade. their recent collaboration has set dancefloors around the world ablaze, and this new remix promises to throw more fuel on the fire.

played by loco dice, luciano, estroe, stephan bodzin, luca doobie, afrilounge and many more. p.toile is back. her single >faces< hooks up with the other releases on ostwind ... an exclusive sound, driving forward with lots of esthetics and sensitiveness is the trademark of p.toiles tunes. she knows how to tie the crowd down with a certain looseness. to perfect this vinyl, frank martiniq, youandme and cosmic cowboys will contribute terrific remixes to a marvelously successful release. many thanks to all artists for this outstanding jobs. save the vinyl!

the 7th release on mikrodisko delivers the perfect concept for the dissolution of the antagonism between original and replica with kassem mosse’s “musical generics”. while m7&#8243,,, is still available as a single, it needs to be resynchronized according to the time of day from fast forward mode to time lapse disco. this record really fits into the smallest handbag, and: small clubs just need small records!

kubrak, one half of dynamic production duo utopia, previously featured on brd003, with his solo effort ‘fast forward’. cementing his name as one of the emerging artists to keep your eye on in 2009, kubrak has gone one step further to unveil his first solo release on breed 12 inches. yet another russian (one of 5 to appear so far on breed’s back catalogue), kubrak captures the industrial movement of his home country, in such a manner that results in a legion of fans. unrelenting, much like his homeland, his production output is in your face, whilst keeping your feet firmly planted with inventive and progressive melodic based arrangements.

with der hut 17, mekas >rain cover< gets three very individual and pretty outstanding retreatments. argentinean fellow pablo denegri teases out the softer and more subtle tones of the very straight-forward original, whereas homeboy qik gives it more weird and enigmatic touch. the record gets finalized by a dry and minimalist techno rework from labelhead jonas wahrlich together with carbon.
