vassilis pallas aka v.sexion was born in the late 80s, in a decade when techno and house put its little stone to the music world. in early childhood he found himself shakin in disco tunes moving it up to punk and rock. but it was jazz, afro beats, garage house and urban music that finally deeply influenced him in developing a particular music style...

played by: super flu, karotte, gregor tresher, stephan bodzin, sebastien leger, nick curly & oliver huntemann super strong new ideal !! winter, please, step away! ideal audio is ready to bypass spring and jump right into summer with a wonderful techhouse release from the glitz. >solar< is everything you would want and expect from the perfect summer dancefloor piece. no, no, do not underestimate it and think its easy. >sunstep< graces the a-side. it offers the perfect harmony between darkness and light. it is groovy with lots of energy while intertwined with a heavy bass-line. >feel high< deserves its name a hundred percent. the track develops gradually, leading you to a state of happy intoxication. you just want to grab your tap shoes and tiptoe to the melody. and, finally, >solar< which bears the name of the boys ep rounds up the package real nice, making it the absolute must for 2010. deep tech-house with a trippy melody will definitely do the trick in the early hours of any day, believe me.

esperanza strikes back and does it deep! on this release we have rosarios icon franco cinelli. establishing himself more and more as one of the most respected artists in argentina, francos response to the praising is nothing but better music every second. on the a side cinelli brings us >the sound of the city<, a trippy dubby affair with a perfect balance between modern sounds and oldschool drums. while on the flip, >joint non stop< honours its title with its super driving bass and groovy almost tribalish beat programming but still keeping the dubby flavour of the a-side. enjoy your martini and, of course, another classy affair from mr cinelli

the revenge return to hometaping to expertly rework their debut release on the label. the awesome >forever in their debt< got props and heavy rotation on a variety of floors, so its time for round two ! a duo of seriously dancefloor friendly versions, the first >pitched down mix< fuses the early house-inspired vibes of the original version with a slo mo jacking disco feel that will work for disco divas and househeads alike. this version featured on his recent resident advisor dj mix and its release has been heavily anticipated. while on the flip things hit an all together more carl craig inspired deep warehouse vibe that will definitely move your body. two top workouts that will rule the floor! press play and feel the rhythms!

here comes the funky assault from florentine trio the clover! this powerful and warm 4tracker ep shows an amazing variety of styles into a pure house music affair. each track is so unique, its amazing how great the repertory of these young guys is! we know them already for their works on ethique and some appearances on our label.. however this is their first magic ep on bosconi!

played by luciano, tiefschwarz, brothers vibe, anthony collins, livio & roby, giusseppe cennamo and more...!! pachamama in english is the andean peoples word for mother nature. so its no wonder that the chilean native multi talented musician, alejandro vivanco, remixed a track by the same name as it carries with it the message of our earths mother through its energy, positivity and promises of eternal sunshine. both the original and the 2 vivanco mixes are topped off with a funky easy riding 70s horn section and the dub mix is an altogether more housey fuelled track with more hi hats to make you shake off the winter blues. one by one the musical portrait of pachamama unfolds itself in a dreamy soundscape of warm summery beats that coax you to the poolside and dance with you from sunrise to sunset!

major mainstyle alert! the beat controller is a young, but already well- experienced dutch dj and party organizer (confusion events). besides his dj skills, he already made himself a name with the track >handz on my ballz< in cooperation with angerfist. the track was released on the last angerfist album >mutilate<.
now its time for his first solo ep. both original tracks are rather hard & kickin, but yet still melodic and absolutely dancefloor-orientated. distorted revelation, known for their successful releases on knor, deliver a stunning remix in their unique own style which will also do well on the floor. all in all, a very strong (maybe the strongest) release on important hardcore yet.

prepare to enter the sombrero galaxy. journey to the centre of the sun, the debut release from lovefingers highly anticipated imprint esp institute, is a collaborative effort from londoner jonny nash (discosession) and dutchman tako reyenga. the two met years ago whilst jonny was working and living in tokyo and tako made his way over to dj. around the same time, lovefingers linked up with these two and a musical family had formed. that being told, its only natural for sombrero galaxy to find its home and represent the face of the esp insitute. journey to the centre of the sun is a dive into a moody, visceral and ethereal headspace brought to life through shimmering synthesizers, swirling guitars and a chugging bassline coupled with live percussion, clearly setting the bar higher than the bulk of contemporary electronic music. on the b side, the stallions (lovefingers and lee douglas) reinterpret the track with optimism, nicely complimenting the original with a light and cloudy yet driving house version. this is the music of dreams, keep an eye on esp institute in this new decade.

brandnew release after his massive >in days of old pt.1< !! after a creative and really silent periode now we are back to announce an artist everybody knows: daniel stefanik. after releasing on moon harbour, cargo, strechcat, bangbang, ohyeah and also kann records (incl. a groove chart number 3 hit) now its time to fuse with be chosen. this 2 tracker delivers with >just one moment< a peaktime bomb par excellence. the reactions from reboot, robert dietz, chris tietjen, meat, chris wood are massive. the flipside is a straight and very useful dj tool for your entertainment

hit the streets slams in from the start with a confident kick drum, using a collection of layered percussive elements and drums (check that cowbell) to create a solid groove. seductive vocal snippets give the track a focus throughout, whilst fritter artfully introduces fresh elements until its resolution. building chords, open hi-hats and a ripping old-school melody reminiscent of warehouse 303s keep boredom at bay. bonza. ridgee didgee steadily courses through deeper realms, again with that killer percussion. here not one but a variety of freaky vocals and playful samples co-habit a densely layered habitat of groove. feral elements are backed up by a driving aboriginal bassline, relentless til a brief half-time reprise. a limited 200 white vinyls are available.

decks tip : >500 shapes< best moodymann stylee !!!!! two years ago murmur set out with a mission to make their mark on the underground house and techno landscape. along the way they guided the journeys of a bright array of artists, heralding early releases from nick curly, mic newman, nima gorji, bearweasel, tom demac, craig torrance and labelhead geddes, and have forged their own unique musical stamp. happy with that achievement they are now expanding and launching a new arm - murmur-? – creating a concept not to direct from but to compliment its forebearer, murmur-? is a chance to encounter a new shade of music, not just about floorfillers, but exploring music with soul, music with a different tempo and style, often still material you could play in a club but that can also be played and enjoyed anywhere.

the third release in the tribute series is an absolutely massive dj weapon, which has been blowing away dance floors all around the world since it was first leaked to a small band of dj friends by its top secret editors. cheekily and seamlessly blending the iconic vocal talents of blondies >heart of glass< with la rouxs >bulletproof< the result, >we love debbie<, is an awesome soundclash of irresistible discoid pop music. cut loud on single-sided heavy weight 180g vinyl, the tribute series is set to inflict some serious dancefloor damage

two spacey, synth heavy house tracks from ron trent. the power of sound has found its way to the southport weekender and marquest wyatts deep la. its full of vocoder and sound effects. space ship is a new track full of transcendental percussion and sweeping synth lines.

its still like that: even though digital is everywhere there is still something very special about having your own tracks on a vinyl release. so this is it again: the very best of the last releases on koletzki_s sublabel stil vor talent digital on a double-sided vinyl edition. starting off with two tracks by bruch & junior that couldnt be more different: while >fiesta de la residencia< sounds like somebody threw some spanish vocals and trumpets into a pool of tech-house beats and basslines at a maniac afterhour on the white island (ergo: great),>sunset< is the deeply euphoric sound for the morning after. the synthesizers so crisp and all around you, the beat and bassline so warm and seductive: this is purely magical music that will make you forget when the sun went down or up the last time while still making you want to shake your legs to the strong bassline and chunky loop. hit! on the flip then comes a re-work of a massive hit on stil vor talent: a 2010 version of nicones >una rosa< complete with the original spanish vocals, but a much more grooving loop that turns into an absolute percussion fest. claps turn into effects and we all raise our hands to those reverbed original vocals. last up australian murat kilic with the wonderfully oldskool house anthem >summer traffic<: great melodic pads, a superbly harmonic bassline and when the breakdown kicks in, an ever-indulging xylophon melody. this whole record has got summer written all over it and helps us all get through this icy winter.

nice price deal !!! brooklyns these are powers are at the frontier of noise rock, and yet call back to the earliest days of industrial before its metal infusion. the trios lyrics and jerky beats let go of every musical inhibition ever invented, creating an atmosphere thats slightly sexual and always uncomfortable.

following the highly acclaimed harbour boat trips 01: copenhagen by trentemoeller hfn music proudly presents its first artist release by kasper bjoerke, with his brand new long player, standing on top of utopia.

after thomas brinkmanns first new ep since long, its now time for the second curle offering of 2010. 3 of the most relevant producers all on one vinyl. big!

starting the year off with this cracking deep ep by our new guys on dirt crew, the runners ! after their extremely succesfull first 12 inch in the beginning of last year which featured the stunning jay shepheard remix they are ready to deliver the next dose of classic house grooves that range from deep house to the more techy edges of electronic dance music. the four originals on this ep alone stand out and keep dirt crew recordings headed towards the future of true deepnes. but as we are real purveyors of soulfull rolling beats we had to add once more one of our favourite producers in the scene to do a remix, this time its our friend from barcelona soul minority who has gained great respect with his cool deep house records over the past years, especially his latest releases on pack up and dance were amongst our most played tracks last year. so here you have it! a great start and there is more coolnes to follow this year! stay tuned and stay deep!

the new vinyl from art of fighters is finally out! symphony of the dead is the main track of this ep: violins, bass, an entire orchestral part that blends perfectly with the latest hardcore sounds. its already been played by the top notch djs... on the b side rock on: smashing kickdrums and melodies that made aof famous: a track that rocks the dancefloor!

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.

in 2010 desolat continues its one year old x series with m.in: >sing and blow at the same time<. m.in is an young artist from frankfurt area developing his individual music taste by being open-minded towards other genres. his interpretation of house / tech-house is spiced up with jazz, soul and afrobeat elements in order to present a varied and sophisticated blend to his audience and led to numerous well received solo releases and remixes for radio slave and italoboyz amongst others. m.ins house and his versatile beat programming caught our attention a long time ago - and the title track here simply seemed to be tailor-made for loco dice and his sets. >sing and blow at the same time< was probably one of the best kept secrets since last summer and now it’s time to reveal it. this new desolat x will be the first in the series to be available as a digital file as well. its coloured vinyl, with artwork by florian pohl and mastering by enrico mercaldi, will remain a collectors item - great sounding and good looking.

vizual - the brain and soul child of joshua iz - its even part of the name. after working with many of the most respected labels in underground dance music, including prescription, classic, om, guidance, diy, joshua &#64257,,nally felt it time to create his own imprint, hence vizual. drawing from a myriad of in&#64258,,uences, from heavy jamaican dub to bleepy detroit techno, vizual seeks to develop new musical forms that bridge the gap between pure organic music and abstract electronic sound paintings, yet creating something danceable in the process.

the first ever album retrospective of one of new yorks most revered of all producers, bob blank, this album traces the history of his independent studio, blank tapes, one of the citys most important creative dens during the vibrant arts scene of the mid 70s to mid 80s.

from the great success of smallvilles first label compilation >and suddenly its morning< a new deephouse collective evolved: the smallpeople aka dionne, steinhoff & hammouda, jaques le bon and christopher rau. hanging at their record store, djing together and exchanging beats and samples made the lovely hamburg house gang around smallville owners julius steinhoff and just von ahlefeld (aka dionne) an new source of deepest club culture. due to their large output jus ed from bridgeport ny signed another 12inch of the smallpeople for his underground quality imprint to come out right after their amazing debut on laid recordings.

rotating assembly is a band put together by theo parrish. this loose detroit outfit evolves around 21 people, who exchange talents and energy. all tracks are written and produced and masterminded by theo parrish, who has given them his (sound) signature sound a true sound signature release. artists included in the band are: genevieve (known for vocals with recloose), maat lo (aka billy lo), marcellus pittman (recorded/djs for/with 3 chairs), rick wilhite (3 chairs), warren harris (recorded with dan curtin), andres. also newcomers such as karen bosco (most vocals) john dougalas (trumpet), king sunshine & trent mitchell (double bass) put in incredible effort to make this release a top sound signature title. from the laidback vocal tune naturally to the instrumental emotions of melt its all there to make this album an allround one. from strength to strength, theo parrish takes it to the next level, once again. the first 12 inch comes with an exclusive instrumental mix of melt.

so sorry, its sold out !!!it was ultra limited and no repress !!!

stroboscopic artefacts third release sees label owner lucy and underground trailblazer ercolino, inspired by novelist michael endes imagery, create two visions of a nihilistic future. the 12inch begins with the tale of fear incarnate >gmork<, the most powerful weapon for controlling society. the a-side is a portrait of this terrifying beast: slinking baselines come from its black heartbeat and white noise grows from its unearthly appetites. fat, squelching noises emerge as light, hope and ideas are quashed, ground up and eaten. the sound is viscose, violent and deep seething red. what emerges is a genius slice of dark, brooding techno crafted from the nectar of your darkest nightmare. the story gets even bleaker with b-side >so the nothing grows stronger<, a narrative of blips, bleeps and squeals. this extreme dub techno track is a mutinous call to arms, the sound of the insurgence. here beats forge together, fortified by a devastating charge, till the track crunches away into nothingness

the every day fight deep in the inner side of danjel esperanza is such a big antagonism. but its not only in himself, its his life, destiny and his music which he really lives out on his musically diary. and now with his first album ever!
no better place can it be than his label backdoor beauty to describe all the opposed feelings. the album contains nine very deep and soulful songs. deep bubbling pumpin basslines combined with spiritual singing vocals, instruments like violins, flutes, guitars and many more! all recorded together with sounds from outside which gives the unique athmospheric dubby touch and far horizons and it feels at the end like a very hypnotic trip.
inspired and influenced from so many music styles he found his own way in electronical acoustic sounding music to describe the antagonism in danjel esperanzas life and the world...which is like one happy eye and one sad eye....

pornographic is back in the scene after the special celebration picture disc for its 25th release. now we have new for 2010: the 28th special cut. complete with pornographic artwork like we are used to from the label we have a very special release by luxembourgs vic miranda and toni moreno. vic has a wicked line-up of releases out there and coming up on labels like naked lunch and more. this track is a perfect example of his dancefloor ortientated techno with a funky influence. cristian varela liked it so much he remixed it for the second track of this ep! on the flip we find the funky mambo sound of toni moreno. this is definitely a man to follow in the future if you are into this style techno. funky edits and infectious vocals take you on a trip from start till end! tip!

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.

incl. huge tensnake remix!
polargeist. 2 guys from germany. thats all i know about them. this is their first release. its got two dark building tech chuggers with some chords, and a fruity lil breakdown in one of them. tensnake reworks >home from the can< into a moody summer persussive house number and banggang get all aussie-french house on the original. with that we have this 4 track release. enough said. who even reads these blurbs anyway?

played by: dj vibe, 2000 and one, bushwacka, slam, michel de hey, axwell, funk d void ...
mauro picotto returns to spread more of his own brand of italian-alchemy amour! after the fantastic success of >diamond<, picotto returns with his end of summer anthem >love message<. with the success of his meganite ibiza parties still fresh, mauro drops his latest dancefloor gem. the don of melodic techno takes a softer, yet no less powerful route on >love message<. housey beats, and euphoric synth line make the original a sure fire, hands in the air number.
on remix duty and in keeping with his trend of mighty mix packages, the label head has drafted two of the hottest talents of today. first up is belgium producer and great stuff artist ramon tapia, who turns in not one, but two takes on the original. his >first message< is a low-slung tech groove machine, that chops the originals synths and stabs them throughout. his >second message<ups the pace with its rolling bassline and white noise breaks, again the cut-up synth stabs feature.

smashing latin grooves and fat female vocal swinging this track to the dancefloor! also the patrick lindsey remix is a big smasher!

2004 collection of the biggest hits!!

the 9th release on excentric muziks off-shoot rekluse brings with it a very welcome edition to the rekluse family, we are sure matt cooper is somebody who you will be hearing a lot more about in the nearest future, that is if you havent heard of him already...
from his mixmag >future hero< tag, to his efx1000 tutorial videos for pioneer (he has been likened to james zabiela but with bigger bass lines) and his ongoing residency at the dirty disco in leeds (the northern light was the original home for the club night which the ep title pays homage to), the only piece missing from his jigsaw was the production side of things, until now. he recently teamed up with spektre to launch their new respekt label with the >cuernos cubanos< collaboration, and now we are very proud to present matts first ever solo productions, brought together as >the northern light ep<.
>pack your trunks< is dark twisted statement of intent, with a hearthrob-esque hook giving off the feeling that the track is ever so slightly on the brink of loosing it, before that tough gloomy groove reminds you just why you were listening in the first place, and why you have to listen to it just that one more time...
>triptup< attacks with a driving upbeat vibe that also arrives with a crazy tinged edge to it, keeping the dance floor bouncing off the walls, this has never failed to receive anything less than devastating reactions during its many roadtests on our travels.
>the swinger< rounds off the ep with a kinky tech houser that swaps the power of its 2 harder brothers for some chirpy tomfoolery, without compromising on its absolute effectiveness to well and truly rock the party whilst getting completely stuck in your head. and dont forget the breakdown...

clone classic cuts continues to dig in the crates to bring back forgotten or obscure records from the past! this is 3 tracks by da posse (produced by hula... one of the outthere brothers... and with maurice joshua, k fingers & martell). strings & its my life are chicagos take on detroit techno... a rare release that sounds like a early derrick may record (think the dance) but maybe slightly more straight forward (as one might expect from chicago). a rare piece in house and techno history since this is one of the rare examples of a record that doesnt show the clear difference between chicago and detroit in the late 80s. this record most likely got produced within 1 year after rhythm = rhythms legendary nude photo and strings of life releases (both 87 and this came out in 88). as extra bonus track we have the groove. a phat bass driven chicago acid track that still rocks it. another fine piece of powerful dance music history back in the spot light!

cityfox moves on and winds up its first label year with a pretty crazy ep by zurichs hottest new talent andri. dive into his funky, weird, psychedelic worldwhile listening to the seven tracks. they all feature andris unique groove, sound and vocal signature. and still, each one of them has its own character: be it the straight forwardness in the change, the cool groove of feel in love with uuu, the catchy funky vox in housers revenge or the hit machine tschege.

the third komisch release is by the parallel. with a string of digital releases to his credit, this talented new producer now makes his vinyl debut.
>abyss< gets down to business,as spacey textures melt into billowing chord sequences, underpinned by spiky claps and intricately woven pitchbent percussion. by the time the massive kick arrives, the seduction is complete.
>mind reverse< is focused on the floor, its stomping beats and metallic, robotic synths becoming increasingly more claustrophobic until the track breaks into a ghostly breakdown.
big with: dave clarke, surgeon, kirk degiorgio, peter van hoesen, serge (clone), samuli kemppi, cio d or ...

nice price deal !!! after 25 years of djing and having been recognized as one of the pioneer of house music in switzerland, for 2010 djaimin has decided to stop! to shake the dancefloors to concentrate himself in various projects of studio productions from pop dance to movie soundtrack and we at purple music are proud to be part of his past and the new future is here... yes we can say: its a new day!!!

dark beat is a new label from glasgow, set up to promote its own take on deep, dark atmospherical techno.
after the success of their digital releases this is our first dark beat remixes vinyl which has cuts from the very popular omen and untamed eps from label bosses deepbass & roman toletski.
on the a side we have oddity with a massive remix from mark broom. his remix of oddity is a no nonsense stripped back techno affair with a ripping synth line, the track teases you with a number off small drops before the massive atmospheric breakdown which would bring carnage on any dance floor.
on the b side we have the orb theory with a remix from edit select who seems to be able to to no wrong with his string of releases on his self named label edit select records. his remix explores the realms of atmospherical techno and has a straight up tribal feel about it, this track has been creating quite a fuss at berlins berghain during the early hours. the track has a percussive drive with rolling snares and a beautiful synth line that rises and fades throughout the track.
the tracks have been getting massive support from dubfire, len faki, jpls, ambivalent, drumcell, audio injection, dustin zahn, perc, dj emerson, alan fitzpatrick, alex bau, anderson noise, danny tenaglia, chris fortier, jim masters, par grindvik, hernan cattaneo, anthony pappa and luke slater.
