sound-design from a far-away galaxy, functional and intelligent arrangements, tricky elements somewhere between handmade and cinema-scope and continuously surprising ideas - this is the music of an extraordinary talent: boris brejcha.
he is one of the most productive creative minds of this time segment and while constantly releasing a great amount of tracks, his music does not sound like the work of a mechanic following a certain formula. boris force roots from a unique style that has a focus on diversity and still you recognize his hand-writing while listening to his tricky arrangements and breaks that are different as they can be.

sehou provides a prime piece of forward-looking nostalgia for metrolines latest release - the cirkus ep. up and coming talented producer from the south of italy, sehou was the man behind the massive track -she makes me wanna dance- released on all inn limited thats been hammered by ricardo villalobos in pretty much all of his sets for the past year. the brutal bass groove of cirkus calls to mind classic era r&s, its choppy vocals and skittering percussion give the track a raw funk, while its smooth pads add a reassuring, warm flow. untitled to her is a relentless robert armani-style workout, with a hint of chi town bubble and funk. driving chords and simple drum patterns give the tune serious momentum, while plenty of breaks in the rhythm and machine gun buildups make sure you dont lose the groove. romanian producer cristi cons aka case sensitive. after dark interpretation is a gloriously meandering, fluid rework. its subterranean bass bumps and heavily filtered synths give the track a brilliantly disorientating feel, while its tense and tight arrangement bring a tense energy.

believe it or not !! new hardfloor album ! with acid !! killer !! mastery is distinguished by the difference between being able to create something because you know about it, and creating something because you are it.hardfloor are the masters! masters of what? masters of the -sound of acid-, the style of techno they invented and infected the world with by unleashing the groundbreaking and infinitely imitated -hardtrance acperience ep- in 1992. that unmistakable groove, that pumping house bass, that swirling modulating melody, that throbbing acid house vibe and those climactic builds and breaks - a new sound for the dancefloors of the planet. yes, this is 2010 and that was 18 years ago. a lot has happened since then and music has changed

donovans are back with >freakshow / krosscut<, >freakshow< is some kind of a cathedralistic anthem, with which they often start their dj set as this particular track can face any big tune, combining quite slow syncopated bassdrums, a killer melody, getting in your brain... >krosscut< is more a classic track from donovans, done on purpose for the dancefloor, ultra efficient, a bit fidget, naughty, the kind of nu techno we like here in citizen records ! fukkk offf & chaos in the cbd (duo from nu-zealand) are in the story too! fukkk offf gives some of his technoid skillness on >krosscut< a bit >à la fukkk offf<, then chaos in the cbd proposes us an old school house remix, using the current production tools, this will give all the music lovers a remembrance from the old days (this remix is already played by teki latex & many other frenchy!) >the french duo comes back with a bump-house bomb, hysterical breaks, extatic horn & powered bass, you got all< tsugi

the smptm label keeps on running and this time takes on a lighter approach. still on point as always and ever future thinking. dose takes on the a side with his stripped down roller >control me< this subtle piece of funk is one for the oldskool massive. crispy breaks and snappy high hats make this the ideal record to get the people in the mood for the early hours. fans of shogun audio should definitely peep this! the b side is a rework of bulletproof, teknik & doses >thaw< cern gets added to this already exciting group of people and that means its time for a sidechain rework. thaw gets injected with highly addictive viral sounds that will infect your eardrums like no other. big rolling stabbing beats are the core with almost >bacteria-esque< sound. spmtm shows that theyre still alive and kicking with this slamming 12inch a serious purchase for the serious people!

a tasty 4 track appetizer for their album due out in jan 2011 on lovemonk. not really edits, but diced up loops and breaks reworked with synths, drums and deft studio magic. you might hear some bar kays or dc la rue on here. fans of italo or cosmic disco tracks should definitely dig it.

just a classic breaks monster…. special backstock

sublife steps up for its first vinyl release with a hard hitting yet super smooth dancefloor friendly number. atlantic connection delivers a nice dubby remix to >the key< by lukeino & featuring paulie rhyme. deep subs and dubbed out vocal bits get the vibe moving as the beats and breaks roll out some choice rhythms. be ready for some hands in the air when this one drops. in the jungle, jungle, jungle!

with support by john selway, stephan bodzin, perc, technasia, xhin, tony rohr, dean facer and many more. the catalogue number 013 on the berlin label phunkit records is at the same time the starting shot for the first vinyl release. and exactly this one shows down-to-earth techno from the capital, elaborated and cunning, by the artist duo takt tick. the actual overhead conveyors and host djs from the tresor club present trend-setting productions. the name >u1< is, brought to the point, a little journey through the time of berlins underground. the a1 side sends the listener on a trip which is coined by dynamical passages of highs and crispy bass parts. uncompromisingly does the rhythm chase around the focused, flogging consonance and the slowly modulated intervals with short breaks. on the b side: >whisper<, a subtle peak-time monster which does not know any kind of holdup, full of energy and only waiting for the chance to make the strobes lose their wind. >black worms is a b2-bomber for sure. with its dusky sounds, it is solidly rolling without downward movement. shady, resonant, consequent and remorseless.

kaiserdisco are working with a killer house groove, wild pitch sounds, spaced-out breaks & effects ! great !

>21th century-electronic-krautrock< ist vielleicht die beste umschreibung für das album >in g<,in welchem borngräber & struver gekonnt einflusse von motoric-krauts wie neu mit den errungenschaften von minimal-techno zu ganz eigenen musikalischen aussagen kombinieren.hier wird keine trance-seligkeit oder große abfahrt ausgerufen, hier werden die wesentlichen musikalischen aussagen auf den punkt gebracht.>in g< ist ein gelungener beitrag zur geschichte des motoric-krautrocks.abwechslungsreich inspiriert schmiegen sich zum teil düstere bladerunner-atmos an feine electrobeats und fast in jedem titel obligatorische dubeffekte an uberraschende breaks.gerade hier haben die beiden gitarren, vocals und vor allem frischfreundliche blaeser so eingesetzt, daß ihre songs als begleitmusik für jede art von kopfkino bestens geeignet sind.

randalls mac 2 recordings showcases another banging release with the return of fast moving breakthrough artist soul intent. having all ready featured on the label on the 17th release back in 2008 and on the recent justice league ep soul intent returns once again to show us how rolling drum n bass should be done. the a side >rebel music< punches through with razor sharp breaks that bring the track to some seriously sub low basslines. haunting vocals lead through the track introducing some seriously deep fx and strings that make this track one stone cold killer. the flip >cybergroove< makes for a more upbeat affair but certainly shows soul intents versatility as an artist. percussion lead breaks and some haunting strings cut into a bassline that punches its way throughout the track before cutting into a fx lead breakdown. dj support from : randall, ai, klute, doc scott, survival, fabio, crissy criss and eveson radio ? bbc 1xtra and kool fm

after a lengthy break from the electronic music world, genotype is back with an lp for exit records and provides a lesson in stripped back dub influenced music at approximately 170 bpm. having started his music career in the mid nineties under the legendary alias just jungle, with releases on the massively influential labels of that era such as trouble on vinyl, renegade hardware and reinforced records, its no surprise that he has managed to capture the essence of rawness in his recent music akin to the early years of jungle. many producers have tried and failed to bring back the old skool sound with an original flavor but genotype has managed this by resisting the temptation to lash in the tired old classic breaks and instead has drawn for the more organic sounding percussion and drum kits. the dubbed out theme runs throughout the album paying homage to his love for west indian music which he has been involved in for many years and naturally influences the music he creates. genotype is a man of few words and prefers to let his music do the talking so check out the album and draw your own conclusions.

first on decks.de!!! >blast corps< opens the ep with a surge of delayed baseline. crispy static rises from below and echoes swoop and simmer beneath the full blooded base. it builds insistently, the 4/4 structure is infused with far off blips and the dusty sizzles of lowpitched white noise. on dark star warm dub keeps the sound organic. it’s elemental, the baseline seems enormous enough to have a gravity of its very own and the other elements pull together around its weight. it teases, the breathy elements twitch, fidget, become fully formed but refuse to drop. frank martiniq refuses the obvious, and opts for the discerning. this is the stuff of intrigue, as is the percussive opening to b2 >lovelane<. here a rattling, clattering sequence breaks out into a euphoric, syncopated structure. its dark, playful and danceable techno.
