with her self titled debut, ana helder bolts out the gates with the comeme party approved classic >complicado< - a morphed track of epic proportions that bring the dive of menacing techno together with the fine line that lies between disco and house. >buena punteria< is extreme body music with a tremendous strobe lit inducing rhythm. >el groove de tu corazon< is full of life - a special track a good dj knows how to use and create a magical moment during the night. >next club< is a frenzy. the inevitable and seducing bass line, anas vocal with the grooviness of chicago house and colombian champeta, making this tune the likely candidate for the most obviously dance floor _hit_ on her astounding debut ep.

toni rios left his mark performing big festivals and the hottest european clubs, but apart from that he also operates very successful as a producer and runs his own recordlabel soap records.based on preious positive collaborations and a general good vibe between toni rios and blufin, this fresh ep is gonna be released on blufin. yesss !!!complete package with two originals, magory (aka tom schön & rob strobe ) remix, an excellent rework by m.in.

>kitsune maison compilation 10: the fireworks issue< delivers 20 (!) tracks from the ever-growing kitsune-cosmos on double 12 inch in gatefold cover.

a twinkle, a spark, and there you have it. many will say they saw it coming. at some point you could no longer ignore the signs, and actually youd suspected it all along: glamour is back in the club. berlin has become what new york was in 1981 and aÚrea negrot is the eartha kitt of the post-techno age. as part of hercules & love affair, perhaps the most enigmatic disco-ball band of the present day, the venezuelan disco diva has tackled issues of gender code through a four-four discourse and convinced the world that a slick performance under a strobe light can outdo than anything that has appeared in the light of day. now - as a taste of whats to come on her album next year - she is releasing her first ep on bpitch...

the loin brothers are long john saliva and dj silvio, two dashing farmers raised on strobe lighting, fuzz guitars and pork spare ribs. this is their second original single and follows on from heavy helmet, the mock & toof remixed single that caught the attention of aeroplane, ewan pearson and ivan smagghe with ivan featuring it on his live at robert johnson mix compilation. on this outing the loins have pruned, mowed, fertilized and watered their way through the studio to create the garden of vargulf. the original takes off with a thumping bass guitar, orchestral string leads, the odd desert wolf howl and a real guitar soloà with a guitar no less.

the new minimalrome series for clubbers in sick-leave! the hacker known for his classic releases with miss kittin comes with a new track called -haunted- which is a kraftwerk, dopplereffekt inspired electro track, with an 808 punching pattern counterpointing a deep analogue bassline enveloped in rich, harmonic pads. on the b side, a remix by feedback remix who delivers a solid acid electro techno work out as we know of some lory d and early passarani works. the second remix is the banda banetti remix (a new minimalrome project) with pulsating acid lines and fast paced hautning techno electro beats. get those strobe lights flashin!! mrx records are sadly limited to 250 copies

tolga fidan, in his last tasty impartment on vakant before his solo debut album due out in october of this year, brings 2 full sides of the most expansive mind and body moving you will find outside of a gypsy circle on jupiter. if techno has a jazz fusion subgenre, a-side >gaijin< is it, making tolga our own personal chick corea with a strobe light.

its been a while since the last rsb release, but then tracks like this dont come along every day! for their first vinyl appearance on a label other than their own, enigmatic german duo ancient methods do the honourable thing and break out the whip, a track that comes across like a 2-step party in the foundry of thor himself. lets lazily label it anvil techno, because as far as we are aware no has yet invented a genre that adequately desribes music such as this. and as we have come to expect, much the same can be said of the evil sickness that is eat like hawks by bjorn svin (with a little help from karsten pflum, jona olesen & copyflex!). it starts like it means to go on, with a gnarled loop and indecipherable distorted vocals, and is gradually tweaked and augmented to the point of destruction. all manner of ill bass, overdriven filters, zaps, clanky drums & feedback join the party before the whole affair is brought to an abrupt end by the strange foreign lady that we have come to know and love over the course of the track. truly music for small, sweaty, strobe-driven cellars.

following up the dancefloor smasher that was i thought inside out, deadmau5 and chris lake join forces once again to bring you i said. the original mix is all about the killer, heads down groove, dirty tom led drums provide a perfect base for the jittery percussion, deep bass and bleeping synths, which all push into breakdown of epic proportions. michael woods returns to mau5trap after smashing his remix of the might strobe

their debut ep comes on alphahouse records, and is turning heads as a late-night monster. need a mental picture? imagine classic g-man, strobe lights, smoke machines, and a cavernous berghain style freak show. the duo slyly manage to push the tracks in many directions, looking back to a time before ableton-warped bootlegs and cheap production techniques, all the while maintaining a standard that feels fresh and experimental. some of us are searching for more. with this record, we approach closer to that groove than ever.

jesper dahlback is one of swedens leading djs/ producers with a lengthy back catalogue to his name, including co-production on two tiga albums, the hugg and pepp project with cousin john dahlback, and remixes for the likes of rex the dog, zoo brazil, arnaud rebotini of black strobe, thomas p heckman, robyn, the knife, and depeche mode. jesper has music in his genes, but it was the musical movements in detroit, berlin and london that inspired him to start producing techno, back in 1991 in his bedroom studio. completely hooked, by 1993 he d formed the stockholm-based globe studios together with peter benisch and adam beyer (following a chance meeting on the train to love parade?) and has worked there ever since. in 1996 jesper started the imprint, blank, mainly for his own material, and simultaneously launched joint venture dk with thomas krome - one of the first labels in sweden with a techno house crossover approach! in addition to making music for various techno labels around the world and working with planet rhythm, jesper met up with swiss-born stephan grieder who had just started the svek label. the duo started to experiment with different sounds, drawing on house musics roots, utilising vocals and acoustic instruments. jesper now describes his sound as >ranging between the analogue sounds of the roland sh101 and the precision mathematics of my computer. i m a researcher and developer of unheard sounds! since the founding of globe studios, i have always been looking for new ways to bend the rules and test the unknown. when i dj, i just play my own productions blending old classics with new unreleased demos.< a producer first and foremost, jespers dj dates find him weaving a soundscape of his productions, remixes and collaborations with new material at every gig, as well as musical elements and sounds worked through the set. one of his favourite current ventures is his part in jori hulkkonens acid symphony orchestra.

the second 12inch sampler from the forthcoming universal vibes compilation. it features a new remix of ok ma by label head paddy freeform under his soulsonix production guise, alongside a brand new and exclusive track from new signing andy ash, aswell as a track from the vaults for an outing on vinyl.beatsmith andy ash delivers a midtempo 4/4 deep track on astro travellin. shimmering 4 to the floor beats rub alongside sublime warm keys with a hint of disco and house. following this is a slice of bumping grinding beats in the shape of the soulsonix remix of ok_mas dancefoor destroying jump up house bomb, boogle. paddy freeform takes a simple loop from the original and adds an energetic synth line alongside to push the track along. finally we re visit one of the early releases and press jafar and bobby strobes keeps coming to vinyl. an incessant vocal chant urges on the groove which builds throughout the track til the 303 bass lifts it up and twists it into oblivion. super limited edition, 300 only!

mighty robot kicks off 2009 with the first vinyl release from french electro artists katelectro and jauzas the shining. the original version of >plug< is music custom-made for a dark room and a strobe, the spoken vocal adding to the sense of vague unease. newcomer ottomatique takes his >plug< rework in a different direction, retaining the vocal, adding some eighties synths and underpinning it all with a throbbing industrial meets disco bassline. the legendary ultradyne push the discomfort and discord up a notch in their remix, staying fairly true to the original, but drenching it with their unique sinister atmospherics. things take a reflective turn for closing track >art of noise< as ghosts crackle in the circuits and bring the collection to a close.

second vinyl version of the cd album with more magical works of unit moebius. including the funking >beat that perculator< re-arranging >i beat that bitch with a bat<, >its time for the perculator< and >the pressure cooker< into a totally dirty twisted the hague jack track! the flip side contains the more deeper side from their first releases. for those who were there in those years 91/ 92/ 93, at the famous parties in the hague and rotterdam, this is a walk down memory lane, for those to young or living in other parts of the world... imagine these tracks in a dark, very dark sweaty basement with only strobe light and smoke machines, camouflage nets, and jacking acid and techno sounds for more then 10 ours. djs such as i-f, serge, schmerzlabor, peter ptau ptau and live acts such as unit moebius played the hottest and freshest music all night long until you lost your sense of time and place and ended in a total mind trip. the pure essence of house and techno! the golden years.

the second single from the scratch massive album >time< contains two remixes. the first comes from siskid, hes a member of black strobe and known from his releases on initial cuts. the second comes from inaqui marin, hes known from his el diario ep on galaktika records this year

after his album with black strobe released in 2007, arnaud rebotini comes back with a new ep and a 100 percent electronic live. arnaud hopes for entering in a new approach in which live is the beginning of the project&#146,s conception. the idea is to build a dancefloor set without using laptop or external sequencer but around emblematic machines (tr 909, tr 808, sh 101, juno 60, korg monopoly). this producer wants to let us share his studio experience in live. &#147,music components&#148, is an album of romantic and timeless techno where rebotini goes back to hot and groovy sounds of his first productions

with the electronic justice 12inch, james t. cotton and d_marc cantu saw off another thick slab of classic chicago acid. opener >1mg< is a relentless teutonic grind, tightly constructed yet engraved with enough subversive tweaks to hint at the most experimental urges of james t. cotton_s other persona, tadd mullinix. >werkin house< and >static vision< follow close behind with the brooding squelch of a 303. and if these take us deep inside the darkest warehouse, then the title track reveals the inner depths of the artists themselves. >electronic justice< may well be 2am/fm_s manifesto, a rolling vocal creeper whose laser-beam pulses ebb and flow around a synthesized mantra: >experimental vision/ this is us, who we are/ this is our religion.< fitting words to chant, shout, or whisper in the flicker of a strobe at 2am, after all..

incl märtini brös, codex & flexor, tiga, le tigre, chromeo and many more..

electro flavoured big room techhouse to house with a more minimal house remix by ukraines most respected producer, slava flash

hinode’ is a tribute and farewell to our favourite club, yellow in tokyo. we’ve played some great gigs there, six or seven hours in the dark with eight hundred people and one strobe light – perfection. endless saki in the bar, obligatory stalkers (“93!” and hedgehog girl step forward please), smoke and heat on the dance floor. finally emerging deafened and sun blinded into the brilliance of saturday mid-morning in tokyo… backing up the original is an exceptional remix from our favourite techno genius - fergie.

original underground resistance member robert hood is a true icon in techno music, with releases on legendary imprints such as tresor, axis, peacefrog, logistic and his own label m-plant. one could even call him the godfather of minimal techno. hoodmusic 3 is the follow up to his 2005 and 2006 releases on music man. theres a little bit for everyone on there and we are pretty sure youre going to like these tracks as much as we do!!

100% certified dancefloor reactions. you ve been warned!! remixes by david carretta, black strobe, and the micronauts.

limited repress !!! !!! dj support: dj hell, damian lazarus (crosstown rebels), stuart patterson, tiefschwarz, ivan smagghe (black strobe), craig richards, dj phonique, swag... solid groove returns to front room after his last release for the label, >mad about< kicked up a right storm in 2003, with nearly every leading house dj supporting the release

with huge audiofly rmx !! the unholy 13th release on oliver huntemanns dance electric label is most definitely one of the strongest to date. uks promising newcomers richard wakley & paul maddox aka spektre return to the label with nothing but a true club killer! the long a side belongs to audiofly aka rekleiner aka sleeper thief aka audiofly x with releases on get physical, connaisseur, tsuba, sixty four, mobilee, adrift and kickboxer to name just a few. they remix the title track dark horse in their very unique way a driving and atmospheric 2007 tech house journey. on the flip-side neon drift embodies a big-ass bass, cleverly arranged rhythmic structures and a huge strobe-light soaked rave melody

nice melodic techhouse 2 tracker limited to 555 copies!! dj support : ivan smagghe (black strobe), laurent garnier, martin landsky (pokerflat), 3 channels (crosstown rebels), dan drastic (moon harbour)

something slightly different perhaps, but probably even more cutting edge and effective. from definition records we present christian fischer. he is probably one of the most open-minded techno artists around judging his numerous releases which covers just about all aspects of techno music. miracle places is solid stomper with electroid influences and dreamy vocals. this would definitely not be misplaced in a dj hell or terence fixmer set. the b-side is a collaboration between fischer and newcomer the ascent. this results in a dark driven and steady stepper with freaky melody. a solid b-side track for the little hours accompanied by smokemachines in full throttle and full on strobe-action

bratztechno mit remixen von david caretta, dima & arnaud rebotini (black strobe)

nice price deal !!! faces aka niklass, former member of the french >troubles fete< sound system, experienced >liver<, has accomplished himself working with >popof< and >manu le malin< while putting dance floors on fire for over 10 years. repented, his interior quest is now heading towards the crunchy electro of edbangers (sebastian), alter ego, back strobe or the citizen team. rock n roll, rave or electroclash influences, reunited for a new approach of electro, oriented towards the instrumental side, where the machine comes in last, where the synthesizer is played as a violin. a first, strong, dancing and granulous ep. level 75 has been created in 2005, the label is 100 percent vinyl and is avid of discoveries, most of the signatures are original projects, first-timers, as the wee-kids, the italians of electrik bet or the producer from marseille (france) traxx dillaz

after his first solo ep on kling klong arnaud rebotini continue to expore out of the black strobe area on goodlife !! here s his tribute to the techno detroit godfathers .the wood is dedicated to early jeff mills and robert hood tracks with some weird >doepfler< hypnotic bass line and on top a tweeky sequence for a maximum impact on the dancefloor! on the other side leviathan it s more influenced by america minimalist as steve reich or terry riley and will give to the clubs a groovy melancholic vibe

entered buzz charts this week, huge hit expected for this end of a year. after making a name for himself as the hottest young producer on the block (bloc party, maximo park, the rapture to name a few) paul epworth finally releases his own much anticipated solo material as phones. for those familiar with his floor slaying remixes under this alias for artists as varied as new order, goldfrapp, roxy music and black strobe, sharpen the knives and worryin hit the dancefloor hard. sharpen the knives is an agitated, visceral monster that climbs to a breakdown, leaving you begging for mercy, but with a huge grin on your face. >worryin< is a slower affair, still dark and digital and ever so slightly menacing. both tracks are a taste of great things to come from this prolific talent, leading into an album some time in 2007

ultraphat electrohouse killer in vain of black strobe s italian fireflies... sure floorburner

after the first single output on vice versa, his collaboration with staffan linzatti, kolombo is now ready for delivering chapter two. this time, without any co-pilot, he kicks our ass with >all this< and >this all<, which is kickin electro house at it s best! the half part of loulou players has already released records and remixes on labels like king kong records, strobe music, jackmoves and loulou records and has just finalized a brand new remix for the upcoming dj remo single >sabrina says<

limited dj promo copies, incl black strobe rmx

drei ganz dicker electro punk kracher auf einer 12inch...rmxs und tracks von spektrum, freeform five, tiefschwarz, black strobe...

new get physical sublabel !! these tracks are powerful and somewhat sinister affairs that make most sense when experienced as a blinding strobe light cuts through the back drop of dry ice in a darkened club.marsha sets a completely different tone. its still based on the same blend of windy city funk and intricate electronic rhythms, but the way that the seductive, chiming chords and dreamy break down unfold over the steely drums suggest that einzelkind has fallen in love. certainly, itll be hard not to be seduced by this layered, evocative track, especially if you hear it after a long night spent listening to intense techno.so there you have it: get physical has dragged a new label, kindisch. kicking and screaming into this world: let it be the place where you go to get all your teenage kicks!

hammered by hell, tiga, garnier, black strobe, andrea doria, mike monday, moonbootica…. with huge remix by williams (get physical/mylo) and diringer (kling klong)!! the williams remix for great stuff is a bassheavy elektro-monster, no doubt. berlin s dj and kling klong artist diringer teamed up again with producer namito for this driving minimal remix.

beluga on the a-side is a an exciting mixture of old school house elements paired with pumping modern electronic house sounds jacked up with sophistication, perhaps hence the name >beluga<? >strobe< on b1 is an hypnotizing minimal loopy groove-monster and >u-bahn< on b2 takes you on a ride through the berlin tube system. your sound wagon passes several break stations, soundwise and figuratively. gui chose this name because it reminds me of the movement of an u-bahn while in berlin 7 years ago

excellent 4 x 12inch with 80s infected electropop / electro clash !! big one!!! special backstock !!
