italian dj/producer remo is no newcomer to the international scene and to dance electric label, his black sabrina track was a massive hit throughout the hottest clubs worldwide. now he returns to huntemanns outlet presenting >mild steel< alongside his studio mate max cassan, and introducing a new project called: >sidechainers<. the title track is a huge arp-trenched killer with a big melody, stunning and spaced out efx and a certain dose of italo feeling. steel 24 on the flipside drives through the club like a heavy tank fuelled with acid. a big statement towards machismo and patriarchy – metaphorically spoken you know the deal ladies. remos music always has this special kind of presence and thats why we love it so much, ragazzi!

this is the first ep on flash recordings that doesnt feature label owners florian meindl and oliver koletzki. but they have made sure to look for a quality replacement. no one else than cologne-based artist daso - renowned for his previous releases on labels like mbf, session deluxe, ghostly and connaisseur - teams up with his buddy pawas to create their first release >night express< on flash. pawas has just had his first record out on adam krolls and markus müllers imprint squonk records and has been a dj for 9 years, moving from india to cologne one year ago. on the a-side daso & pawas foreshadow the summer with the track >tgv<: a beautifully deep melody that swings along a powerful loop. >ice< - the name of germanys high-speed train is clearly more electro-driven. a slightly broken beat with a thumping organic bassline pumps above an ever-changing soundscape that culminates in some euphoric high-pitched synths. never too much, this is a perfect example for elegant understatement. also on the flip side is the track >bummelzug<, which translates as >very slow train< in german. this is a dub-techno masterpiece. deep dubs and arpeggios flow over the simple beats with a great clappy snare drum. dreamy, hypnotic, melodic! flash recordings has just become fit for the summer

>baby show up< shows olivers strength in crafting a vivacious floor-rocking beat, with a deeply cavernous kick and sharp stabs forming the groove before simply gripping synth melody gives the track a sparsely wistful atmosphere. as the bass bounces the track along, a precisely executed break leaves no doubt as to the peak-time quality inherent in this production. >baby show up – elegant universe remix< demonstrates the appropriate name of these young remixers, with a track that falls nothing short of a nearmasterpiece. textured melodic soundscapes float gently over an entrancing and slowly lumbering bass-kick combo, purveying a level of passion rarely found in such a graceful piece

big one for all the italo and cosmic disco heads!! >satellites are spinning< is an amazing disco oddysey which kicks off with a patrick cowley like electric bassline and the builds slowly. more and more synths are laid down to ensure for a mighty climax half way true when the lead melody kicks in. on the b-side we have this amazing vocal booguie tune called >u cant help but dance.< this can be compared with a moodymann meets theo parrish meets dexter wansel kinda song. whatever this may be, rest assured this nugget moves booty when dropped in the club. this awesome package ends with an electronic p-funk track called >zweap.< the mighty linndrum computer reminds of earlier prince productions and the crazy synths sound like amp fiddler playing on another dirty and energetic george clinton meets parliament gig

oliver huntemann already presents the 14th release on his dance electric label. but his release policy is far from being predictable or boring. with jens mahlstedt and andré winter he presents two long time dance music protagonists for the first time united under their real names. both started their careers back in the 90ies, and both delivered stunning production work, before there was ableton live and before there were software plug-ins. these 2 tracks on dance electric prove that they are still ahead of time. these dark and floor-rocking electro trenched tracks are spiced up with bits of melody and incredible arrangements. everybody fasten seat-belts – this is a hell of a comeback...

the irrepressible cobblestone jazz present the first single from their debut album >23 seconds<, forthcoming in september on wagon repair. cobblestone jazz produce their tracks live, with a strong emphasis on improvisation, and the trio of programmer tyger dhula, keyboardists danuel tate and mathew jonson, make full use of their formative jazz training to transform the musical outfit into a pragmatic and responsive unit, a living and breathing creation, free of formulaic sequence. >lime in da coco nut< is a potion brimming with transformation. cobblestone approach a simple key melody from every angle imaginable, with the harmonies, disharmonies, bubbling accents and rhythmic permutations exposing the otherworldly potential of the simplest of tunes. a sinister whispered vocal conducts affairs, seemingly flustered at its inability to contain the unruly elements in this wonderful experiment. on >saturday night< a deep synth line and ghostly vocoded moans progress through a jungle of percussion and falling echoed tones, steadily approaching a beat that enlivens like water on a desert journey, or rather, like vodka on a saturday night. the dizzy finale spins around your ears, a bit like the ceiling after a particularly heavy weekend adventure… be sure to be well rested before tackling this sensory safari

supportet by: stephan bodzin, monoroom, ziel 100, mijk van dijk, stephan hinz, wollion, christian fischer, andrea doria, greg churchill, gennaro rossi etc. with pepperjuice hamburg based duo nudisco are delivering a good example for this fact: minimal oriented drumming, short decays, modern groove and just enough sound to honour the harmonic background of music in general. piemont goes even further and created a straight minimal version that will surely please even the most credible djs around. for the collectors of deep tunes, ajowan sure is the right choice. crisp high percussions, subtle bass and a melody that wont leave your mind for a long time create an awesome mood on the floor. hypnotic, propulsive and igratiating it sure is a winner on the floor. stereofunk adds a remix that subjoins additional kick on top of the original idea. pumping compression and oldschool chords that remind you of the good old 90s but combined with the productions skills of nowadays itll burn down the house! you better be prepared!

for living003, dub kult has decided to pull together some of his own best productions to make the killer four-track >one world ep<. this ep has, arguably, more of a dance floor focus than previous eps on living, but maintains enaough trippiness for all but the most dedicated noodle heads..

"this ep combines different periods of time. oldschool and newschool elements is the key element of a modern production, no matter if its nasa or both legends acquaviva & lützenkirchen to deliver a masterpiece that is functional in every possible way. sirens and oldschool stabs on one side, combined with electronic fierceness and drumming madness. the b-side "hurt me" is more agressive, sawtooth sounds modulating through every spectrum of frequencies. at least one will get your ears bleeding or just the mind blowing if youre lucky enough to survive. cologne based producer pierce gives the >satellite< original a new face with his remix. long synth build ups, reduced drumming and massive compression focus on the basic needs and desires of a rocking dancefloor: to celebrate a break, a melody and to freak out when it starts at zero again"

brand new - second on surprise - twelver from this international deejay / electrotech producer under his onderklank guise. the title track has the spirit of carl craig and motor city detroit written all over it. the first track on the flip reminds us of tracks by thomas schumacher mingled with old school flavours of newbeat and early trance. the twelve inch closes with a spicy dancefloor cut (the other tracks are also for that clubfloor as a matter of course) with a melody that could be produced by gregor tresher while on the other hand, the beats have a bit of radio slave ingredients.

the lead track stunning in its original form is based upon a brooding bassline which underpins a beautiful melancholic string melody that has been utilized to full effect by man of the moment tobias luetzenkirchen who delivers a more techno influenced remix. whilst debbie does dishes hits a more hypnotic note, olivers production partner harada delivers his own squelchy interpretation taking it in a stripped sometimes you have to lose yourself to find yourself way.deep dark drug music from the house of therapy

big with aquaviva, oxia, huntemann , tuomas salmela from finnland is no stranger to the dance world. besides running his own phonogenic audio label, he still finds time to put out records on other labels like 2020 vision or get physical. his style could be described as scandinavian electro soaked housemusic – it always contains a certain dose of melody and rump- shakin drums. swedish taboo is his view on contemporary techno in the vain of border community or stephan bodzin productions……

joakim is back.this time tough, he surprises us with a small pop jewel! but lonely hearts is not a classic pop song, it is much more joakims interpretation of one. a catchy tune, which does not want to be one. an exciting contrast between catchiness and a bleeping onslaught.on lonely hearts, cheesy sounding strings really stand out over a stoic stomping drum beat, dark singing grates against beeping keyboard playing, in the chorus a wonderful melody has a comforting effect over the very sad lyrics.in addition to the album version and the radio edit, the lonely hearts maxi also features the loving hand remix by tim goldsworthy. the musician (lcd soundsystem) and label owner (dfa records) skillfully pulls lonely hearts to the left, brushing it into a dark club track. with the distorted slow motion vocals, the funky bass run and the demanding beats, it is suddenly very close to the sound that already characterized joakims club hits are you vegetarian and come into my kitchen. and you ll also fin a joakim dub of the track. this dub keep the pop side of the song with a more catchy approach for a more dancefloor version of the original and with always the weirdness you use to find now in the joakim production !supported by tim sweeney, prins thomas

detroit s new >soundshift< imprint makes a stunning debut with this intoxicating two-tracker. opening up is the soultek remix of billy dalessandro s smashing >don t sleep< release (which was found in the many sets of dan bell, ame, annie mac & pete tong last month) this mix is nothing short of brilliant and will certainly capture the hearts and sets of all those mathew jonson or loco dice fans out there. it has a subtlety that really creeps up on you and before you know it you re tapping your feet and zoning out listening to the intricacies of the music. truly minimal, there are loads of space within the track which is somewhat similar to the original but still a world apart, particularly in the fantastically eerie synth programming. in the forefront of the song is the shimmering and haunting vocal loop, >don t sleep< which has an almost hypnotic effect. (think richie hawtin in closer) the melody of the title is a delicate affair which sips cocktails in the company of some nicely chosen whirring and echoing noises. the build is effected so subtly it verges on melancholy but halfway through a rumbling bassline, appregiated melody and backbeat hi-hat pattern announce a funkier escalation!!

you re still not taking yourself seriously.on the journey to discover new tracks you trip over a few disco-balls, find an irresistable melody, dance briefly with abba, are trapped by chic, free yourself and then also rob them/it (???) of a super-bassline. next you travel to the outskirts of berlin to dowse for / apply the divining rod to find fresh, unused talent. the discovery responds to the name c.l.i.c. and turns a discohymne into a little rave-monster. now add to the whole made-up story the fact that you leave the remixing to an old friend. he makes a >6am, the sun rising, tickling your nose and making you scream< track out of it. the name of the mysterious unknown: oliver koletzki. conclusion: you re still not taking yourself seriously. why should you? >fitzelkrtschbungbritzelbratzel< is just ruling everything. a counter-design is urgently needed. the world s serious enough

with big rui da silva rmx !! phil stumpf is back on triple-o after his storming release earlier last year. this time we are treated with a contemplative but bouncy motor-city serenade. warm pads, a lively, jumping rhythm and that beautiful melody makes you want to play this >cut< more than once. …. on the remix-tip we are proud to present rui da silva, yet another producing legend that has been around since the early days with big releases as underground sound of lisbon on danny tenaglia s notorious label tribal amongst others...

joaquin durrieu aka paradoxxx is a producer hailing from buenos aries, argentina that already has a reputation for music that is freshly electronic and futuristic in its appeal. this is definitely one of the strongest 3 track eps to surface in the progressive house genre offering an upbeat approach that is all about zooming fx, layer upon layer of synths and melody sweeps anchored by crisp, crunchy beats

this dry, cold-processed stomper from jack rock shoots like a rocket out of nowhere. with a bass drum that reminds of stakes installed in the swampland and a mysterious melody, he once again presents himself as the connoisseur of delicate club dramaturgy and jack really knows how to conquer the hearts of both, the dj and the crowd.his stumbling funk finds its equivalence in dandy jack s staccato rush whose congenial remix shows a higher concentration, but is still full of catchiness and deepness driven by a real conviction. this must-have ep offers a really wonderful ground contact and represents the continuation of a unique label policy: young, but characterised by deep wisdom, knowledge that can only be found in the dark labyrinths of the club where we love to get lost over and over again...played by john acquaviva, dinky, toni rios

this is a 2 tracker with two mixes of the same track. the main theme of the track is almost 80s like synth melody lines and string pattern. the a side mix has an almost electro like feel with more laidback drums whereas the flipside attacks you more head on with its slamming drum groove and very full synth parts

>love manifesto< from mos is a cleanly produced track, with a beautiful melody which will hook you from the very first moment you hear it, trancy and hypnotic.. the remix comes from a swiss producer and dj called khainz, with this as one of his first releases under this name, but simon schwendener is certainly no new-comer to music production, with over 30 tracks already released under the name of freakulizer and his first album out in 2005, you can find him constantly touring the world. support by hernan cattananeo, satoshi tomiie, steve lawler ,john aquaviva, anthony pappa and dave mothersole
