nachdem der in berlin lebende grieche argy in diesem jahr unter dem projektnamen zodiac free arts club tief in kosmische kraut-welten eingetaucht ist, bleibt er dem münchner label permanent vacation nun treu. auf der >reminiscence ep< erinnert sich der sonst auf labels wie poker flat oder versatile aktive produzent an die aufbruchstimmung der späten 80er und frühen 90er-jahre. >wish you were here< und >tari tari< klingen so, als wären sie der plattenkiste der ibiza-legende alfredo entnommen worden

brillant moving beats from myown on anton zap label

sampler 12inch from degos (4hero) forthcoming cd on 2000black >a wha< him deh pon? a1: late night fright - heavy track, growling synths with quick percussions and a deep kick drum piercing through. big! b1: love & hate you - slower beat, with a hypnotic synth line. awesome vocals and a funky, deep bass!! brilliant! b2: not in my disco - again with a hypnotic synth, funky and super deep bass! drums and percussion are excellent, shuffling throughout the song with feel of garage about them

excellent selected four track vinyl sampler with serious upper class deep house / vocal house

how many people would have believed such a thing could work? would diva-like vocal grace and cool, calculated club sound efficiency not react like matter and anti-matter upon contact with one another? yet perhaps this is where the secret of her distant charm lies, the glamorously crafted cool, the vague elusiveness of aérea negrot. last year the venezuelan vocal wonder silenced any doubters with her first single >all i wanna do<, creating a new platform for her boundless range of musical expression alongside her career singing with hercules & love affair. now her second 12 inch is coming out on bpitch - just in time to set the tone for her coming solo album. the berlin sound wizard tobias freund is on hand once more to produce and mix ìright body, wrong timeî. he has commanded the mixing desk for a whole host of artists and labels from minus to warner over the last twenty years or so and made himself a regular fixture in the bpitch sound cosmos with his production work for ellen allien, dance disorder, heartthrob and indeed aérea negrot

dark and spooky techno, very athmospheric

wph head honcho red d begins his new production collaboration series.... the label say here is your summer present from wph! four storming house tracks with that wph >oldskool in a new way< feel, the result of a couple of mad studio sessions at the lemakuhlar studio in landegem…now where the f*ck is that? near deinze of course…duh… the (un)usual suspects involved: lemakuhlar, social disco club, red d, metrobox and theres even some 20 seconds of san soda genius in one of the tracks. if you can find it, write the answer on a homing pigeon and win an eternal supply of wph love.

diese keith hudson aufnahme von 1974 ist so etwas wie ein verlorenes schmuckst?ck, das wegen seines gesangsstil in den letzten jahren immer mehr an bedeutung gewonnen hat. untergebracht in einem sonnigen cover artwork klang entering the dragon mit keith hudosns unverwechselbarem vocal style zu seiner zeit wahrscheinlich ziemlich erschreckend, wirkt aber heutztage wie ein wendepunkt in der entwicklung von dancehall und hip hop. besonders highlights sind st?cke wie will you come out tonight , it was when friends started to talk about you und rage of love !

massive techouse release by tony lionni (ostgut ton, freerange)

tuccillo is a rare producer as he lives and works in ibiza all year round rather than flies in for the summer. the white island is without doubt the most overused and abused place on earth for dance music promotion, but beneath the glam superficial surface a real scene of native island talent is emerging. so when it came to making an ep for 2020vision we pushed the artist as far as we felt he could go, to explore new untried directions and show his diversity. tuccillo showed his true spirit and worked though a few knockbacks from our a/r team until we were happy we had the best ep possible at this moment

when saints go machine are a danish four-piece consisting of nikolaj manuel vonsild, jonas kenton, simon muschinsky and silas moldenhawer. after the release of their critically acclaimed fail forever mini-album in february of this year, they present to you the fail forever remix ep. the remixes on the ep are coming from the pan-american electronic masterminds of nicolas jaar, alejandro mosso and blakkat, who themselves have brought about an astonishingly beautiful collection of music over the past 12 months. the collaboration between when saints go machine and these three exceptional producers has culminated in the outstanding ep that lies before you.

when some collaborations occur, it feels like fate has been paying close attention, planning something special. on one hand: bugge wesseltoft, pianist, composer and pioneer of electronic jazz, on the other: henrik schwarz, one of the most sought after producers of electronic music who has remixed stars from michael jackson to ane brun. this combination may not seem as radical as once it might, as in the days before bugges new conception of jazz, but the results most certainly are: this does not feel like your typical electronic jazz outing. its a super-group in microcosm. wesseltoft comes from a jazz background and has moved towards electronic music. he started on the ecm label with jan garbarek, and later collaborated with club music legends like laurent garnier and francois kervorkian on stage. schwarz comes from the chicago/ detroit techno culture, and performs at music festivals and in clubs on all continents. he has been moving towards the jazz and improvisation

spring 2006 was both cruel and exciting. radiating hot helsinki nights, too much light and vivid, restless dreams about music. while chucking down a glass of cheap brandy in a local bar the idea finally materialized: lets start a record label! a label that would bring people together. proud people. people thinking of music. people doing their own thing in their own way in their own basements. and most importantly, people who understood the meaning of space between notes. after 5 years, 16 records, 85 tracks and 44 artists from 13 countries it goes without saying that those restless dreams became reality. and so did the music.

sampler #3 from the global communication back in the box compilation album, the techno and ambient retrospective selected by tom middleton and mark pritchard, back together again after a 15 year hiatus. opening up this seriously hot four track ep is an ultra rare and often overlooked carl craig remix of yennek, aka kenny larkin. two detroit pioneers collide on this beauty, with delicate oscillating keys gliding over a heavyweight breakbeat and clattering hats, a signature style of carl s. the track really kicks in with the bassline and monumental pitch bending synth stabs. a real must have for anyone with a love for the original detroit sound

spannung im song: das kölner duo steht für sich selbst.

support from cocoon juggernaut sven vath to mobilees multi-skilling deep tech lass maya jane coles as well as seth troxler and luciano. the youandme rmx is their best to date! pick your favorite

das neue kraak & smaack album mit vocals von u.a. den legenden romanthony & lee fields!

here is some more disco ammo from mdd. >me for you for me< may be based on a classic, but the crowd reaction when it was played at a recent warehouse party shows theres certainly still life in the old dog yet. john luongo thought he d nailed it when he put the breakdown before the verses? pff.. what verses? then theres >think< – not the usual sound we have come to know from al kent possibly – no strings? no percussion?? ah, but theres a squelchy synth. finally theres waltered states. this is possibly what it would sound like if walter gibbons and ron hardy went on a bender then made some edits together.

killer hypnotic minimal tech house

wonderland ghost is, not only due to its title, a gift for all friends of electronic dance music. the three tracks: >for you<, >the ghost<, and >what im standing for feat. toxic pearl< all exude the pleasure of working with the original beats and rhythms that rattle through baders music. these are elegantly arranged sound montages that relentlessly push into the ears of an enraptured dance floor, taking surprising twists and turns on their way to a land of pure musical fun

bullion announces his new single >magic was ruler<, for vinyl only release on 25th may 2011, featuring 3 full length version of track from his non-lp >you drive me to plastic< and one exclusive new composition. the title track is a sample-based tapestry, rich in jangly guitar chops and pert horns, it dances along with the merriment of a tropical beguine. >magic was ruler< is a crate-diggers journey to encompass all manner of musical styles from krautrock, leftfield disco, all the way through to afro inspired 70s electronics, and continuing on from 2009s >young heartache ep< (one handed records). the searching, syncopated track >you drive me to plastic< has all the dynamic of the non-lp with which it shares its name and new track >good news on her< has the pulsating verve of shep pettibone-era ny house, whilst packing bullion s signature hip hop punch. >too right< completes the set, supported by benji b and gilles peterson in the uk.

after the roaring success of nicolas jaars space is only noise album the fine curatorial heads at circus company hq have enlisted 2 of their nearest, dearest and most talent co-conspirators for the first round of remix duties. having built a cult following and peerless reputation for his remixes of everyone from roy ayers to cassius, pépé bradock turns in no less than 3 versions of too many kids finding rain in the dust. the proceedings begin with his blind pig mix, an echoing tunnel of balkan strings and dusty samples connecting the lands of disco and hip hop to blinding effect. the train fantôme poke follows and is certain to find its way into many a discerning dj bag in the weeks and months to come, with its mathew herbert-esque syncopations and grinding industrial scrapes and psychedelic whispers. dave aju takes up the baton on the flip turning the albums title track into the kind of late 80s dance floor work out martin hannet would have been proud of, certain to appeal to fans of recent work by matias aguayo, rebolledo and the comeme camp.

the unique partnership is the brainchild of local dance music aficionado dj vidis. he teamed up with top lithuanian producer mario basanov in 2007 to form the most influential local production combo and to deliver what could be the freshest sounding and truly adventurous house music in lithuania and around. vidis and marios first vocal track and video >i ll be gone< featuring young but much promising lithuanian singer and songwriter jazzu became national phenomena on its own right. hitting number one in radio charts, not leaving mtv baltic top 20 for half a year, and becoming the most blogged and youtubed lithuanian music video ever says it all. and the single featuring british songstress kathy diamond as well as vaguely provoking black and white video cemented their reputation as local institution and the purveyors of top quality deep sounds. with duos debut album released december 2010 on their own silence music to big commercial success as well as a few singles being lined-up for early 2011 on top notch international labels like japanese endless flight, australian future classic, german best works, and british crosstwonrebels also remix work commissioned from soul clap, john talabot, andre lodemann, marcus worgull, and softwar the future looks bright and bold.

a1: can you understand - trademark nicholas sound, brilliant percussion and moving synth, warm bass and a superb sample combo. excellent!
a2: if this world - old school house vibe with the keys on this track. hypnotic vocal throughout, great idea and execution. awesome bassline! killer!
b1: world of confusion - beat down disco, 85 bpm on this one. a real gem, slow groover. awesome percussion, vocal will stick in your head for days! brilliant!
b2: i know a place - keeping with the beat down vibes. great vocal, horns with a brilliant beat, percussion is superb! big track!

following hot on the heels of the outstanding pimpsoul ep, bombstrikes once again maintain their scene leading formula. this time out its the turn of nick thayer to deliver the dancefloor goodies. in a style very much his own, nick raises the bar even higher with this incredibly strong three-track ep.
another superb addition to the bombstrikes collection.

in less than two years, sardinias alessio mereu has made quantum leaps in his dj/production career: after releasing an impressive string of eps for respected labels like contexterrior, tuning spork and cmyk, many top-name djs took notice, including dubfire and duke dumont (who picked some of mereus tracks for their respective cocoon and fabric mix cd compilations). in early 2010, he set up amam, which has quickly become one of the most popular techno/house imprints in italy, and as savvy dance music enthusiasts are catching on, throughout europe as a whole. earlier this year, his increasing international presence led to his debut berlin dj appearance at arena club to headline an amam label night…

alex cortex >unshell< is the follow up to his acclaimed >i wont conform< (pom22) and the foretaste for his upcoming album which is going to be released on pomelo this coming fall.
>unshell< features 4 modern dancefloor tracks in best cortex style, characterized by tight rhythmic structures and a unique and irrestistible hypnotic power.
from deep stumbling house grooves with piano stabs and a male vocal admiring >your sexy moves< and a chicago jacker with a repetitive voice on the a side, to athmospheric dark techno with warped sound effects and breakbeat house layered with modulating 8-bit sounds on the flip, this record shows once more alex cortex skills to move off the beaten tracks in his very own style.
