nice price deal !!! heres something for you! pirahnahead revisits and finally releases this lost gem of a track from the detroit legend alton miller. this release entitled something 4 u (from alton millers stories from bohemia lp) is a remix which has been in the vault since 2003. in this package is the original 2003 mix and an updated touch on the cut for 2012. alton millers vocal is full of soul and feeling, and soars in the track as he delivers this powerful message. also featured is the wonderful cecilia c.sharpe (detroit symphony civic orchestra / urban stringz) on cellos, lending an extra warmth to the dancefloor vibe. live instruments, deep beats, hot vocal. not to be missed.

mercury are on fire! their second e.p. is still hot in the boxes of djs like brodinski, deetron, round table knights, phonique and pedro winter. and they already come with a third one. they asked one of their favorite singers in house music to join them and the result is more than just a burner. mercury & robert owens >candlelight< is a deep burner that wont leave your head. its a super futuristic slow house jam with a tricky, unexpected beat and a harmonic change that makes you... lets say: cool down? remix ep and more tracks coming up soon. mercury currently cant miss. they are rollin...

the name dachshund is one immediately associated with experimantation, an innate feeling for ryhthm and good dose of tongue and cheek. the swiss dj, producer and label founder can scarcely hide his musical roots in reggae. the sunshine feeling from those days still shines through in his current productions and gives them a touch of dub. his latest ep for highgrade records is no different. this leads to the first track >extensive talk< with its reduced beginning sounding something like a false start. gloomy voices implore us to >come, sit down, forever<.this delusion establishes itself in a musical theatre, while simultaneously becomming more pressing as the track winds its way into the legs – moving inexorably towards the second groovy track, >asymmentric love<, with its sprinkle of varied and original sound ideas. the final offering, >octogone< goes even further and weaves original loops and straight edged percussion into a compelling carpet of sound.

memento12 showcases some of the labels most daring works so far, ranging from sparse soundscapes to elaborate actual song structures, always keeping focused on the feeling and unique inspiration that are its distinctive trait.

new single of the parisian trio on the franco-german label. the first track called dcl is a floating piece combining beautifull organ chords and breaking funky beats, setting on one hand a kind of religious scene and on the other hand giving the feeling to be a stream train at full speed! this is the track choosed by moritz piske, who did a jackin freaky remix out of it. got back is the other original track from the antislash. groovy baseline which reminds the remix they did for ribadisco on the salon records 02. avas verden put her voice with lyrics from her rockband lipstick, following the freaky acid lines. after their killer remix for tin man last year, we qre very happy to release this new project from antislash.

after several appearances on the label, kareem comes up trumps again with an excellent first solo single release backed by a wonderful remix from white doyen oskar offermann himself.how low can you go the opener track acts as a discreet, structured, driving and some how dubby house tune that keeps a nice layer of grit beneath the fingernails. its loopy character imparts the feeling of virtually remaining unchanged but it nevertheless staidly evolves within its sonic borders and imparts a sensual quality of all-enveloping warmth. oskar offermanns interpretation of how low can you go introduces skipping melodies that are transmitted as choppy discoesque pulses and rhythmic modulated bass sounds are the preferred form of punctuation. indeed the remix is intended to be a dj tool, but like all of oskar offermanns recent house works, it builds smoothly as though every element was simply waiting in the wings to make its appearance at the proper moment, and – just before it finishes up – sounds like it could go on forever.

following a pair of fine releases on fine art and under the shade, james johnston delivers another superb ep for no matter what. >after everything< is a masterfully created slice of rolling deep house flirting with disco styles, punctuated with snippets of disco guitar licks and dubbed out vocal samples, all held together with a sumptuous chord sequence. the comparatively upbeat tempo rhythm and deep subs of >lost the house keys< which follows comes as something of a surprise, and the chopped up piano which causes the track to erupt into a flurry of jacking rhythms only add to the proto-chi house mood. the rest of the tracks continue with the same kind of upbeat pace, with >get back to the feeling< interlacing a variety of female vocal samples within its 909 rhythms, and >xtc< injecting some serotonin into the ep with its razor sharp synth stabs and snares, whose rhythms recall the deadly precision of marc kinchens early productions...

when no one is watching ramona, is usually listening to future times records and beautiful swimmers all days. maxmillion dunbar is not only half of those aquanauts, but also running the label and releasing music as max(million) d(unbar). what a guy! hanging out in the vague territory between slow-motion house with a hip hop feeling or dubby and dubious fun music, his melodious approach is extremely hard to categorize but all the more enjoyable. >polo< already saw the light of day on >max trax for world peace<, but ramonas favorite dj ata and live at robert johnson manager oliver hafenbauer were so much in love with the bleepy bonbon that they offered it a place by their fireside. now cautiously modified, fine-tuned and extended for its label home, its a rainforest serenade for beatnik boys and girls, with all the ingredients you want from tha d. the only kid able to thrown down the gauntlet in front of maxi is frankfurts melody man phillip lauer (arto mwambe, brontosaurus, etcetera etcetera). turning >polo< into one of his trademark sluggish bass line barrage tracks with falsetto synths and sharp snares. get your vogue brogue out.

we are proud to release the first ep from the new fluxion album on echocord. this work is about his travels in music. the sounds, influences and aesthetic of his actual travels, expectation-journey-destination, alongside the music influences deriving from them. through his prism those sounds, pictures, travels, emotions left traces of new directions, of future journeys to take. fluxion captured the motion in his travels with a different feeling each time. on no man is an island with the unreleased dennis brown vocal version ,an influential song, with a clear message. desert nights a kind of desert rock meeting dub on a road movie. butiama an actual place, where variations and consistency in rhythm is within people s dna. this ep also includes a flowing rmx by our good friend thomas fehlmann. after a decade in the field of dub, techno, ambient, fluxion opens the horizon with music that cannot fall under one specific territory.

detroits man of the hour with three raw analog feeling deep detroit house cuts... for those who knows

first copies only via decks.de !!! laut & luises second poodle, the >shoot the sun ep<, marks the long overdue return of manchesters third dimensional space head norken. collaborating with deer, a powerful brujo from weimar he met while hanging out in a space trailer during his recent long travels, he managed to create an ethereal delight. these techno sorcerers have conjured an album worthy of its title micro don juan. we have chosen two lush trans-dimensional techno tracks with a deep housey feel, namely >shoot the sun< (a2) and >remember that feeling< (b1), and asked deers local buddy dwig aka die wiese im garten (a1) and our charming dürerstuben (b2) for remixes to complete the collection to an essential listening for the third ear. yes, well done gentlemen!

andras toth is not a nu-school producer. please refrain from adding up-and-coming to his biography. he has arrived. with his second full solo-ep on alphahouse records, he presents a varied and captivating look into the mind of an accomplished musician. following the success of his previous works on the label, his debut >us< and the collaborative ep >futures< with boss-man butane, >would u?< is a trip through improvisational jazz, open-air sunrises, and sonic after-hours explorations. herein lies real music, nothing formulaic, nothing safe. the ep embodies an ethos, held by alphahouse, that musicianship is about originality, not following trends. there is still much that remains good in the world of independent electronic dance music. we will continue to search for, and find it.

the tracks blend the best of booth producers, rachmads detroit influence shaped with lauxs dynamic style. the title track viking, is led by a synth that sweeps in an almost hyperventilating rhythm that raising the track with a series of industrial ticks and clicks that flavour the german, dutch and detroit mix. a dark bassline leads the track into its climax where glitchy synths squeak and stretch before the track drops. carlos is a track that bounces with groove. morse-like rhythmic bleeps carry the track cementing the individuality that is created in the ep. awash with sweeping sounds, the track gains a smoother feeling of deep techno demostrating their delicacy. 7tine is a juggernaut with a dark, heavy rhythm, showing the industrial power of the pairs production. flanged distortion scratching like fingernails give the track a tense edge, while simple yet powerful synths steer the ep into an eerie conclusion.

excellent 4 track vinyl with fantastic deep house. it gets started with >spring loop<, a track that looks to its name both for feeling and production sense. of course that sensuous vocal sample that gets drawn through it wouldnt do the job on its own, but rau knows that too and surrounds it with a warm, humid bassline and his always changing and snapping drums to keep it in the pocket for the whole 5 minutes. even though the groove on the a1 is already heavy for him, he goes deeper yet with >swearing (vinyl version)< that jamaican vocal is something so classic that we wont spoil it here, but the pumping house beat and piano stabs he winds around it give even more poignancy to the lyrical substance… we are pretty sure that by the time he finally echoes the vocal out late in the track there will be some hands in the air for this one

2011 has seen a string of stellar releases from the dynamic force giving house music a new accessible heartbeat, mario & vidis. now, ahead of their album set for release in january, the >changed sampler< lands featuring a dub version of future classic anthem >changed< and three additional choice cuts. an apt advocate to the new age slow house sound they are making their own, mario & vidis will fully unveil their masterful debut album >changed< this coming winter but here lies a taste of both proceeding discs. a prelude to the wide musical terrain these lithuanian scene pioneers are striding through, the album sampler captures a glimpse of the epic soundscapes, hypnotic pop melodies and ghostly soul that ultimately leads into raw house on disc two.

music is about passion, not competition. in this spirit the something vinyl series continues again with another stl record in his diy do-what-you-wanna-do style, including 3 house tracks aswell as a astro-science thrilling farspace interlude and loop introductions. the ascetic elements on this ep are the result of an isolated one man musical universe, where the love and passion for sound research is perhaps the strongest driving force behind the machines output. a bit of squelchy mircowave-acid, some sunny analog sequences and someting that seems to come out of a lovely b-movie track, where humanoids moving death proof onto the dancefloor feeling addicted to the groove. something 18 is probably that kind of vinyl which can be enjoyed the most when the time has come to loose yourself and let things flow into the positive. this 12 inch comes in limited quantities of 500 copies and is dedicated to all believers of the something vibe.

second release on is records, the a-side, the future never was combines sparse beats and pads held together by a growling stuttered bass, which gives the track an industrial feel but on a techno/house tip. on the flip, fake the feeling, draws on sounds beyond the current trend for vintage analogue in an original take on the house blueprint. the b2 track out of orbit is 4 minutes 48 seconds of tech soul, for the floor or the headphones.

after the huge succes of its tenth release (davide squillace & guti), hideout is back with with the third slice of the deconstruction revisited series. this time, crocodile tears, which appeared on davide squillaces tutti frutti ep (ho003) got offered three amazing relectures. it all starts with mr robert dietz (cadenza, cecille ...), who delivers a super modern and energetic relecture, where intelligent synthetic percussions mess around with weird noises and processed effects. after two minutes a monophonic synths starts its battle with vocals from squillaces original to end up on a more minimal groove. gflame aka portugese techno start cisco ferreiras (the advent) relecture directly sets the tone: a nasty bassline with a crazy synth stab flies over a soft but very heavy techno beat, to evolve to an elegant tech house track (no bongos involved). finally sis, the man behind cocolino imprint, reinterpretation starts with a long intro with the kick dropping after more than 3 minutes. the melancholic feeling of the track builds into a very subtile beat with reverbered elements all over. the percussion layers and delicate melodic synths add some organic flavour to the music so the 14 minutes remix is never boring and takes you to a nice journey thru sounds. you can tell somebody was in love when making such a beautiful song. another must have from hideout!

now with lovingly remastered audio, extensive liner notes, and unpublished photos, this double l.p. set gives you both of the aforementioned rarities and the best of overton berry - that is, if you havent had the good fortune of seeing the man play live. still performing his trademark blend of standards, thoughtful interpretations, and original compositions weekly in-and-around seattle, if you find yourself music hungry in the pacific northwest, you just might have a chance. berry is still doing his thing with the utmost respect and dedication to his craft.lp limited to 1000 copies.

ultraschall is an homage to the first big techno club in munich. the owners of harry klein were part of the old ultraschall, which has a unique legendary status nowa¬days. the older generation in particular often long for the good old days. yes those times shouldnt be forgotten, especially not in terms of sound, but its also important to move on and attempt new things. like supporting vinyl, going to a who¬lefood shop or ending war. ok that might sound like a bro¬ken record, but how about spending less time on facebook and actually with your friends, cooking for your parents or organizing a break dance battle in your backyard? daniel takes us on a journey through the past and back to the future again. a charming mixture of laid-back grooves combined with some rough n ready rave moments make this a rapturous trip, no matter what time it is. track names are a really interesting element of music. some artists dont care about them at all and call their tracks a1 or something non-descript. yet many titles can be really funny, others made up words, and some corre¬spond to current events or times. some just really fit the sound. if you lose something, in general its a pretty nasty and unsettling feeling. but you have to deal with bad luck when it strikes. losing something can teach you an im¬portant lesson, or simply show you what it means to be unfortunate and down. not knowing the lows as well as the highs wont allow you to evaluate life very well. most important is to really feel and be yourself, despite the ups and downs.

in einer zeit der scheinbar unbegrenzten moeglichkeiten durch neueste produktionstechnik und unzaehlige samples und loops ist es axel ein anliegen, einen schritt zurück zu gehen und sich zu limitieren, weg vom stereotypen / cleanen computerproduktionssound hin zum versuch, die musik wieder als versuch, als experiment zu begreifen. er verzichtet daher bei seinem 2. soloalbum auf die allgegenwaertigen bongoloops, ureinwohnergesaenge und whitenoiseatacken, kehrt zurueck zur drummaschine und zur melodie, die sich wie ein roter faden durch axels werk zieht. ob in den anfaengen als vanguard (mit asem shama), seinem kompaktkatalog, dem ersten soloalbum kiss auf karmarouge 2008 oder neuerer veroeffentlichungen auf sportclub, suol, get physical oder ostwind, immer verleihen melodien seinen stuecken eine besondere stimmung, die sie von den ueblichen dj-tools abgrenzen.

dj t. gave us his fine album, the pleasure principle last winter. since then ts given controls to top producers for high grade remixes. this time daniel bortz, clockwork and dj t. himself take on >leavin me feat. khan<. jump right into things with the clockwork remix, a sweet blend of house-party amience and maintime club sensation. the rhythm alone could keep us dancing for hours, that mixed with the itchy bassline and arousing vocals, ensure that no one is feeling anything else. clockwork delivers a solid remix, more than worthy of >leavin me<. the b side shows daniel bortzs remix in full view. right away, a full beat pulling you into the rhythm, building to the entrancing chord play. the vocal lines give a sensual tone to the mix,. right at home in berlins watergate or a closing party on ibiza, this track carries us on, while the night hours fade to early morning. t.s > left with attitude mix< finds us in the deepest of nights, where flashing lights illuminate our ecstatic faces. heavy piano chords roll and the beat fades, pure sound. the kick brings us back to earth. t. meets us at the part when you realize you have found what you are looking for and all is right in the world

during a time when its more fashionable then ever to sample kenny dixon, >alright< uses a small and respectable vocal splice that references ferguson himself, marvin belton, & ferrispark records. heavy bass and beats eventually mutate into a smooth late-night house jam. side b laced with chatter, cheers, and claps resonates a >block party< feeling accompanied by chords, strings, sub-bass, and disco loops. enjoy! party people

the original mix of >amygdala< by joe joyce offers a revival of more traditional techno rhythms, accompanied by oriental percussion and bell like timbres. vocal drones instill a feeling of suspense and darkness, before a release of melodic gamelans calm and soothe your amydalas fight or flight response. enjoy the ride! amygdala is supported by two exceptional remixes from maya jane coles and nadja lind, which take the track to completely different corners.

state of the art work on the dusty binding between house, techno, dubstep and analogue processing.
on side a: a dancefloor smasher with solid 808 beats and absorbing newyorkian piano hooks, followed by a touching acidic inner voyage into motor city sweetest reminiscences.
on side b, a proper piece of functional minimalism and a soulful uptempo excursion into the garage territories. the heat of magnetic recording, the funkyness of the machines, the driving force of the human feeling.

breaking onto the scene via a series of anonymous 12inch, it was after garnering reverence as a big name producer in disguise that cottam was unveiled to be the humble newcomer paul cottam. rising through the early rave scene in his hometown of preston, he first cut his teeth as a dj warming up for the likes of surgeon, dave clarke and regis. despite his techno upbringing, it was the slo-mo tempos of mark e and the revenge that inspired cottam to produce his own brand of dusty soul and hip hop-grounded house. however, in april cottam returned to his roots with >sunrise sunset< on use of weapons, sinking a rave core down to his signature slung bpm. it is a journey into sub-aquatic acid house that began with a series of remixes for luv jam, pattern select and morning factory, and one that he continues to explore on his aus music debut. aptly titled >deep deep down< sculpts the feeling of acid techno into warm slo-mo house. ukrainian producer vakula takes the track off on another tangent entirely, stripping away its propulsive chugging heartbeat and replacing it with an off-kilter, spaced-out pulse reminiscent of theo parrish when he s in that kind groove. on the flip, >twang< is a return to cottam s brand of languid, soulful house, steeped with groove destined to incite the dancefloor shuffle.

while dominik eulberg utilized the broader canvas of the album format to develop complex sophisticated compositions, rich of melodies and of intricate details, it was time to boil it down to a bit of a club formula. stephan bodzin, a favourite producer of eulberg, has chosen the clubbiest track of the album >teddy tausendtod< and transformed it into a after hour monster. installing a feeling of electricity with sounds of the original that hover on a layer of huge bass and powerful arrhythmic kicks... it has resulted into a hypnotic anthem.

anders trentemoller has become one of the most respected names in cutting edge electronic music in the last few years. his rise to notoriety was sparked by his early, techy releases for poker flat and audiomatique and has since gone on to stellar highs with his own personal take on the genre, spanning, pop, rock, indie and classical. his debut album >the last resort< was released in 2006 to much international acclaim, and the producer also began to become an in-demand remixer in the house and techno world. as the decade wore on his sound continued to progress, opening up his studio to more live instrumentation, and a looser, rock-meets electronic vibe with his stunning >into the great wide yonder< lp. now this special double cd and double vinyl release celebrates some of the producer s favourite remixes he completed for other artists, and also some of his personal picks where other musicians have reworked his music.

france meets plakat records. yes, here comes lownza (jett rec. / time has changed) and robby olson. we love the deep house / techno tracks >another dimension< and >on an even keel< ... wonderful feeling! for the main time rocks marsets remix on b2. great rotation!

panacustica’s fourth release is amongst cosmic metal mother’s finest work. “time is now” the track in question, defies definition by mastering a style on it’s own, by fusing elements echoing from prog-rock drenched with emotional content into an adult and contemporary way of delivering which is unique to the cmm writing style. the original is melancholic bliss. a vocal line at the center of the piece whispers words about oscar wilde and mr. death accompanied by a cello melody that grows bigger and bigger into an angelic cascade of notes. the track begins and ends in the most bare way with just a drum beat leaving you with the feeling you have just entered a loop where time is irrelevant. commodity place has the second cut of the a side. the duo from rome, known in the global underground of the vinyl tribes for their signature guitar style, chooses to call their mix “experience”, clearly paying homage to the gods of rock, delivering a guitar solo that will fire up your speakers and fill your eyes with the brightest psychedelic colors that we all so desperately need in this age of grey anonymity. the b-side is a full eight-minute mix by the man who needs no introduction and made us all dance since day one, larry heard, a.k.a. mr. fingers. his version is a fast “four to the floor” track, where a shaker drives the house beat into the melodic lines and voice borrowed from the original, making it one hundred per cent dance floor efficient with the modernity and mastery of his touch

sixth release on the burgeoning diner city sound label, we have featured the legendary 1979 orchestra before on a well received collaborative effort with his buddy volta cab on dcs004. we decided to invite him back to release his own ep with us. 4 brilliant tracks, beat down and fun all round from this exciting young producer!

rebuilt album is a lp from ethnik groove that includes 6 new remixes from some of the classic tunes (funky moment - gotta go - unexplicable life) produced by paul eg with two bonus tracks. after several singles in collaboration with international renowned artists such as eriko tanabe, quantec, jeff bennett, davide squillace, florian meindel, markantonio and umberto carmignani, ethnik groove has invited benja, david lazzari, paul eg, reto ardour (switzerland), lee burton (greece), philip braunstein (brasil), jeff bennett (sweden). they frequently release outstanding lp on various international labels. these artists were chosen for their musical feeling and for their collaboration on brilliant tunes released on ethnik groove and minimo imprint, our techno-minimal division. musical approach the concept was to regroup artists with a diverse range of musical flavour in one lp to obtain a non -superficial album. the original tracks have a different approach from the techno tunes produced nowadays. the idea was to keep the same groove with a current trend to allow the artists to add their own musical flava in a defined style between techno, minimal and tech-house.

hot off the presses. we just got these in last nite from portland. this is our first real peak at body work, glass candys much anticipated third album. johnny & ida have been destroying clubs with both of these tracks for almost two years now. forever pushing forward into new ground from where b/e/a/t/b/o/x & 2010s feeling without touching left off, they candy coated this slice of analog glamour & sprinkled it with some stardust on top. lazer driven melodies bounce off electro primitive drums that would make moe tucker proud. idas crazy like a monkey & happy like a new year as she sings a call & response to the crowd. >warm in the winter< continues to unfold for seven plus minutes of shimmering percussive synth. the proto boogie b side >beautiful object< is so grimey it makes us think of bbbb s production on the first madonna album. the rhythms keep turning while future & past collide. johnny gives us the usual dosage of heavy bass & crisp handclaps. written & recorded in the icey montreal winter. mixed for all seasons.

lower east launched in the summer of 2010. it was the result of a coming together of 3 likeminded friends: cozzy d, lee brinx and ed kane (kanio/dexter kane). all established members of the london scene in their own right, they combined forces to create a label with one simple ethos: quality electronic music. whilst the idea itself is unified, the influences are vast. disco, techno, garage, hip-hop, drum and bass, jazz, 80 s and soul all inspire lower easts subtle blend of 4/4 beats. notable artists on lower east include: lee foss, gavin herlihy, robert james, uner, nima gorji, pezzner, richie ahmed, puente and rosche, waifs and strays, and death on the balcony.
