ltd 300 copies 7inch! taken from the album the glimmers present disko drunkards!!

the model is no stranger to gigolo, and we (the royal we) are no strangers to the model. as a supporter of gigolo records, you, our fated reader, should be familiar with our protagonist previous gigolo adventure. but in the words of the late george harrison, >all things must pass< and with this in mind we would like to reintroduce...
the model doesnt just have his own sound, he has in fact attempted to engineer his own genre: dark-techno-baroque. the sound has been crafted through a penchant for aristocratic mannerisms and a passion for high fashion and low fetish. it also happens to pretty succinctly sum up part of his unique personality. set against a backdrop of refined charm, there s an underbelly of something dark and brutal, which is possibly the best way to describe the a-side >in the night<. in many ways this could be seen as a return to form for gigolo, immediately poppy but structured as a classic song with haunting vocals underpinned with a driving techno rhythm. to further consolidate the techno aesthetic look no further then >flex on the b-side and you have a pounding track that could have been played by daft punk in 96 and will probably find a home with a diverse selection of djs today.
the >vampire funk ep< is the first release from the models forthcoming album on gigolo. the concept is in the same vain, but delves deeper into the dark-side of the model. exploring his fetish with the night and creatures that occupy its opulent corridors. like classic transylvanian tales the music from this album will present details that set the mood and composition to create tracks with narrative regardless of lyrics or words. the result being music that moves both bodies and minds and stirs the blood. as pretentious as this sounds the author of this mindless scrap of paper has the fortunate privilege of speaking from experience. as the mind that moves the hands that moves the keyboard is the mind that is being moved by the music as i type and you read. so we are already part way there. the rest will unfold in the coming months.

the wait is over... !k7 is very proud to present the next instalment in the dj-kicks series and we couldnt think of a better pairing.
chromeo is canadians p-thugg & dave 1: best friends, virtuoso musicians, walking hip hop encyclopedias, and the only successful arab/jew partnership since ... well, ever.

teenage lovers, 20 something bloggers, 30 something burned out ex ravers and 40 something sistas can all finally party under one roof with this slick, sleek, smoothed out mix. a tribute to canada of sorts, as it includes so many maple leaf underground classics and obscurities. obviously there some unreleased versions (chateau marmont most notably) and of course the dj-kicks exclusive track, with chromeo fucking around with the eagles classic >i cant tell why< which comes in 2 versions and will get a separate 7 inch release also.

2009 ist das jahr von kleinschmager audio. nach seinem debutalbum im märz folgen nun die ersten remixe. >helicotrema< wird von sven tasnadi (oh!yeah!, pokerflat) auf gekonnt minimal-technoide art und weisere-interpretiert. drums und percussions stehen von beginn an voll im vordergrund, werden aber nach und nach ausgedünnt, um in folge dieser spannungsgeladenen steigerung noch kraftvoller wieder einzusteigen. einenergetisches dj tool par excellence. >emphasis< bekommt von marko fürstenberg (ornaments, a.r.t.less, thinner) seinen gewohnt deepen detroit dub techno stempel aufgedrückt - einfach zeitlos. grund genug, diesem remix gern die komplette b-seite der 12“ zu geben. zwischen beide remixe gesellt sich mit >tuba auditiva< noch eine singleauskopplung. der track mit der saxophon-hook ist einer der knaller des albums und fehlte bisher einfach auf vinyl.

on the b-side label boss perc hooks up with the labels canadian connection metalogic to deliver 2 tracks that flit between broken beat and 4/4 rhythms with ease. both tracks feature an attention to detail that both perc and metalogic are known for with endless dubbed out synths and effects keeping the tracks interesting but never getting in the way of the crisp beats. these tracks have already been road tested around the world by perc in recent months and will be a key part of a launch party for this ep in toronto in october.

passion sound (inner beauty) is designed to exemplify the inner passion of an individual, while maintaining the outer crust of a chicago sound. it is well true that tevo howard found it necessary for this artistic track to make it to vinyl. he has said that the tracks elegance is the perfect potion for a bgr vinyl release. while inter tribal is slower paced, and somewhat crosses bands of what one would expect to hear from the machine drums used to create it, inter tribal as a track is also meant to even out the energy of this conceptual vinyl piece as a whole. dreamers reason is simply the title track to tevo howards first full scale album, which will be released in coming months. on this particular vinyl selection, bgr 7, a bonus mix titled, (deep reason mix), is included, whereas it will not be included on the full scale album.

a temporary sabbatical from gigs was taken and the band wrote material for where were you when it happened in new orleans midtown district, where their rawboned compositions resembled the katrina-pummeled surroundings. with their girlfriends with them in as close to a stableenvironment as they d been in months, they were able to tap a darker, more personal side in songs like as noise, and hunt you down, with its mournful, organ drenched air belying monotonixs typical good time charlie posturing, while fulfilling the albums need for a climactic, balladic moment. where were you when it happened? finds monotonix visiting a greater diversity of places within their sound while still retaining their minimal appeal. mostly though, where were you when it happened works up a sweat with raw rock and roll, acid guitar licks and riffs, screaming choruses and, in general, the wildness of monotonix in a way that makes for repeated album listening (and pummelling). where most bands refine their production sound as they go forward, monotonix have reverse refined themselves, playing dirtier and more energetic to capture the lightning they are known for.

lets have fun! - thats the mantra of big zis and the crew of nation music. the swiss black music label has been broadening its musical spectrum over the past years. just like the artist big zis, whose music could most likely be labeled electro pop alternative punk rap, they dont care about common conventions. while rap becomes more and more pimped out, house loopier and minimal narrow-minded, big zis hooks up with a top-class troupe to get it her own way. for her most recent album und jetz … (and now …) she worked with marton di katz and valentino tomasi (both members of kalabreses famous rumpelorchester), who laid the musical foundations for most of the songs. for the impulsive electro on the track suure räge (acid rain) however, big zis collaborated with the techno producer michal ho (tuningspork) at the studio. suure räge got remixed by several well-known producers: robag wruhme (freude am tanzen) and canson (gs zürich) are to be found on volume 1 and the soul brothers lexx (aka kawabata / drumpoet) and kalabrese (stattmusik) successfully combat boredom on volume 2. the sound scapes of the remixes couldnt be any more diverse and cover a broad variety of styles. and be sure: volume 3 - work in progress - will delight you as well
