gunnar stiller has always been known for producing dance floor >destroyers<, even if >far from okay< sounds a bit like a floor wax accident theres no need for the timid raver soul to get worried about slipping and falling. soft accords sedate the mind, the bass pumps in the adrenaline and a voice softly whispers that everything is going to be just fine…all you need to do is dance. when the janitor loko mops over the uy 038 floor with his remix you can even walk over it on the highest of high heels. it does in fact, get a bit rougher when the lights go out on >some kind of weird< and the smoke machine goes starts pumping. thats when its >black piste< time and thats no place for heidi klum or techno beginners…but who wants to be a model anyway, right?

everything from a small room. a few friends joke and start to record something.. something strange, indecipherable, or maybe just their souls. a voice begins to sound diffuse, catchy, distorted, hot. what happened to them on in that room don t know, but it was enough to convince us that this was a true story, unique ,inimitable. hooved was amused to construct a simple, yet many artists have come out of my mind, since the scsi-9: anton e maxim have made a pop song like this phoebe, that seems to be everywhere, but didn t think hitherto.. barrytone, new project of korablove, we delight rolled, cuts batteries and more pressing reason, unlikely to fade in your shelves. echonomist in greece seems to fall after many years in his bedroom, and start playing with the same old things, but with the eyes of this. finally tuccillo helps us find a very specific connotation, destination, disco. vinyl seems to sail on his last tour, but in the digital ve rsion will still expect the memories: l original track of hooved, version reinterpreted version of the cool voice hvoya, and the last train, the remix of dualism. a man and a woman summed up in just under 13 minutes all monsters and insecurities, words and glances, the soul of a gesture that turns into projects, loop, hours, bpm, second. apparel is pleased to present phoebe ep.

there was no doubt that label boss fred everything wanted to get his hands on the remix, taking a similar approach to his recent juno-chart-topping disco remixes of hot toddys down to love for oms sub-label smoke & mirrors. fred ups the tempo a little but instead of going the 4/4 route,he uses a laidback,almost freestyle beat over a crisp production. this is house-not-house at its best!also included is the bonus track from blacklodge called >broken promises< which shapes up as another late night monster.early support from danny krivit, mark farina, tortured soul, nacho marco, franck roger, lovebirds..

>that placid track< has been in the hands of some lucky individuals for some time now, making its way across dancefloors from berlin to new york, bristol to tokyo.
dark disco references are heavy throughout with a great use of strings licks, a slo-motion vocal sample and a classic cowbell keeping everything nicely in check. as with most of octobers productions though he still has one foot firmly inside berghainrendering this essentially disco track into something with more of a late night, broody edge.

space junky is the track that first brought bosco delrey to public attention, landing him pieces on the fader, rcrdlbl and elsewhere. it features his typical excess of influences- semi-psychedelic guitars, bedroom soul hooks, splurting dancehall reggae basslines- anchored down by solid songwriting and lyrics. it s a weirdly great combination that made us think this guy might be on to something. my my racecar is harder to pin down, but no less intriguing with a chopped up guitar lead, mouth pop rhythm section and zipping bass. the drop the lime influence shines on these two tracks, lending heavy bass, sound effects and making everything crispy.

emptiness isnt a quality you normally associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the dancefloor to the weight of the bass, its all about fullness, volume, density. reboot turns that opposition on its head with his debut album, shunyata. the title comes from buddhism and translates loosely as >emptiness.< but not just in the negative sense: it speaks also to impermanence, a state of constant flux. its a great description of reboots music, where everything is in constant and kaleidoscopic motion. and its also a fitting metaphor for the life of the frankfurt-based musician, aka frank heinrich. in just three years, since his first eps under the reboot moniker appeared on cadenza and below, hes become one of electronic musics hottest properties, releasing not only a slew of singles for labels like cocoon, love letters from oslo, ricardo villalobos >sei es drum< and underground cult fave motivbank, but also a pair of high-profile mix cds for cocoon and cécille

here comes edwards follow-up ep. this time he goes a slightly deeper and more direct. it might be the purest music we ve ever heard from the berlin-based producer. all the crazy clubgigs are manifested into hi music now. of course still with the classical edward style somewhere between dark minimal and trancy deephouse aesthetics. >bush of crows< is somewhat of a siginature edward track. but a very rough one this time. with a comfortable paranoia, this track unfolds itself into a little peak time extravaganza. on the flip, he cools everything down with a warm house tune called >the ghetto< and he adds a certain >blockparty romantic< to it... b2. is once again one of those more minimal edward tracks were he masters to be on point with just the core essence o sounds. edward remains a real romantic for sure...

ltd 2010 repress !!! marco carolas string of recent releases on plus8 and his own 2m imprint are now effortlessly hurtling forward under the weight of their own momentum and the bloody cash ep shows no sign of relenting. in fact if its possible, this collection of four new combustible tunes adds another dimension to his already substantial repertoire. on the title track bloody cash, carola immediately shows his intent, letting fly with a spiraling tribal groove full of bright, crisp percussive elements that stretch skywards towards the sun. the tough, earthy beats keep everything rooted to the ground as he taps into some age-old hedonistic urge, creating a universal groove that rolls out across the oceans before breaking on the shores of each continent with an all encompassing call to dance. the main body of the track incorporates a straight synth stab doused in reverb that sets the scene for the finely crafted main keyboard riff, which is an accomplishment in itself. alternating between two complimentary parts, it elevates the backing track to another level. perfectly balanced and enhanced for maximum danceability, its without doubt one of carolas finest works to date

ross alexander payne has always been interested in the earth and its relationship to all in its vicinity, this includes earths place within the universe, and the presence upon earth of both natural and manmade systems and processes. drift and expansion are tracks designed to represent a view of earth from space. it was previously believed that the earth was expanding and thus the continental land masses were moving as a result of this process. modern scientific evidence does not support this idea, and the theory of plate tectonics is now almost universally accepted. this ep represents a view of the idea of these two disparate theories as if taken from the direct space around earth. ross explains in his words >everything i do, be it music related or otherwise, is driven by this fascination with the universe around me, the quest to discover this universe and the desire to expand my knowledge of all within it<
