adonis presents the invite by late invitation, three live tracks from a swiss band. its deep house in a nu-disco meets steppers kind of way. its just this side of metro area and that side of non-american bands paying tribute to a funky, soulful style in their own particular way.

after a much-loved freerange ep, berlins andre crom & milans luca doobie return to their home label. >sometimes< might be the duos biggest dancefloor-burner since their breakthrough-track >ebony<. a tight groove, killer bassline, techy chord stabs and infectious vocals are the recipe for a pure peaktime anthem that will rock both house and techno sets.
>whats happening< is a deeper, more quirky atmospheric bass-heavy groovetool, with freaky vocals and a pretty unique vibe.
federico molinari gives sometimes a deep remix in typical oslo style, working with the chord stabs on a monotone hypnotic groove and subtle fx & modulations.

supported by adam beyer, john digweed, dominik eulberg, ewan pearson, perc, danny tenaglia, dave tarrida. roland m. dill is a passionate dj, trained musician as well as bit of a scientist. this release tells a story of psycho acoustics. so expect >low go< to be something special for your ears and for your soul. roland likes chicagomusic and this track has the chicagoesque feeling in it from the beginning. those who remember green velvet will get a hang also on this powerhouse-techno production! this track will be easily fitted in to every berghain dj set and rock the shit out of everyone on the dance floor. dont expect dubbed out lushness, this is serious dance or die action .
the remixes come from prominent producers around europe, so starting chronological from a2 to b2: sian has appeared on a lot on raves and parties with his surf board. he is an international traveller who loves to be reminded of the times when surfing farmers left their houses with door frames and no doors. his remix works in a way a countdown functions. building up tension at an incredible speed, this track is set out to explode... but sian would not be sian if he had not developed a club friendly torture . sian rides the wave of superfatt basslines and adds a sequence that sounds as if someone had replaced his teeth with thin pieces of metal, creating a humming voice comparable to one of a jaws harp. sian keeps the tension going with very few elements and shows he is a true masterof techno.
secret cinema has been accompanying us since his first releases mid of the 90ies and we truly believe quality prevails, not to mention his mayor chart hit just 3 months ago with “shake ur tech-ass”. well secret cinema is unbelievably massive in his production. we dont see how anyone can fatten up the sound more than he can. but it is not only about tuning and pimping and pimping and tuning... his remix is a masters piece of perfectionbecause it creates something rare... deep emotional hydraulic strength. this is like diving head on into a pool of silicone and getting sucked into it. this track has an hypnotic feel to it that is comparable to radiohead.
darko esser is an icon in the techno scene of the netherlands. his remix takes the track in to a direction you would not expect it could go to. starting rather minimal darkos remix soon takes a turn and brings in jack elements and cool nostalgic melodies that will warm the heart of every detroit techno lover. was it derrick may who played chords like this... these strings are looked up in the back of our heads like childhood memories of having your first popcycle exploding in your mouth. this is soulful music with just enough analogue imperfection and warmth to it.

played by loco dice, juju & jordash, k-soul, anton zap ... ferrispark records continues to release quality underground music that moves emotions, dance-floors, and brain waves. the 12 inch release of scott fergusons >evolution of a revolutionay ep< is raw, soulful, dance music for the deepest dancers and freethinkingminds…

last october, their previous co-operation with ayak, >stayaround<, reached top positions on the club charts in england. this, despite the fact that the track had alreadybeen released in 2007…

after the debut albums from future beat alliance and aardvarck, delsin strikes again with this very deep soulful ambient techno album by dimension 5. until now dimension 5 did have only released one 12, but one which was directly praised by fabrice lig, laurent garnier and others. his album alien artform holds both deep, ambient like techno to listen to (think: john beltran & detroit escalator company) as well as more dancefloor-aimed material, without losing the soft touch, (think: kenny larkin & aril brikha). this is (detroit) techno as it is meant to be: soulful & deep. should appeal to fans of aril brikha, d.e.s. and the dubbier german techno stuff. tip!

past, present & future all wrapped into one... we are very happy to welcome the newest members to the citydeep family, and straight off there smash hit for sole channel records. dasoul, fabry diglio & m.a.d. boss brings a brand new jam that moves in between deep and soulful house with out a missing beat! moon in taurus kicks it off with a dark and dirty feel but before it has worked its magic you have moved through deep and soulful to take listener on a ride. play this one loud and watch the dancefloor come together as one!

the groovers sound is the result of a lot of late nights, forged and crafted with utter devotion to creating a unique sound. all our influences were bought into the studio and from the tension between a love and knowledge of various musical styles and modes, of temperament and personality we found that it clicked. the result of this collaboration between finn campbell-notman and steve ferrand is ten track collection of songs from slow to mid to house tempos. each time we worked on a track or song we asked ourselves >is this a groovers track< and the only criteria in deciding if it was was >does it feel like one or not< this feel that we were searching for is: that bittersweet, syncopated and soulful one that we both love regardless of genre. our influences range from deep deep dancefloor house, early downtempo, latin soul, boogie, southern funk, and shimmering techno

tokyos kez yms follow up to his maiden yore ep, city soul, opts for a more pronounced party vibe, as evidenced by the plenitude of voices that repeatedly pop up during butterflys four deep house tracks. the material sounds of japanese producer kazuki yamaguchi puts a clubby spirit to this ep. propelled by a beautifully warm and soulful bass pulse, inner city funk grooves mightily for five blissful minutes, its rhythm bolstered by the crisp snap of the snare, the funky wah wah of an electric guitar, and the occasional interjection of a synthesizer melody. bridge to bridge quickly charts its own percolating course with the addition of a stepping disco house pulse and a male voices sleepy, off handed musings. bringing the lights down for a romantic make-out session, the sexy low tide chills the pace slightly so that spent dancers can catch their breath and replenish themselves before the next go-round. of the four tracks, the title cut grooves most powerfully in merging a rambunctious broken beat drum attack with an equally driving bass line and manic electric guitar soloing. play these jams loud.

dilla would surely be proud! and so would probably theo and moody too. theres a new cat from michigan down with the raw fusion roster. his name is kiyoshi shelton and will, with a 150% probability, hit both the hip hop and soulful house scene large! his 3 track debut ep on raw fusion starts off with a real smooth hustlin deep house tune with parallels drawn to the eminent new york producer, dj spinna or even west londons own soulful heroes restless soul. the flipside takes us down memory lane with some real heavy detroit hip hop bangers, both of them with a nice soulful touch. their heavy and the tough and wicked lyrics are least as sharp.

>minimal is cool but in the long term a bit too unsexy!< this statement of marcel knopf that is by now quite old, shows his heart does not beat for one genre after all. after the first and more technoid single release from his album >dusty dance< monsieur knopf satisfies his longing for real house with single no.2 >crazy about<. r&b singer camaras soulful voice leaves quite an impression on this powerful beat. in >skinny bitches< marcel knopf processes insane nights: you just want to drink a beer in your favourite pub but then you meet a couple of friends and they take you to the worst disco in town. this high-energy track is uncompromising and must be played during peak time and not during warm-up sets or after-hours.
