just in time for summer, pampa issued aimlessness, the long-awaited new album from dntel aka los angeles producer jimmy tamborello. his latest electronic suite brought forth stronger leanings toward house grooves, building upon the pop and idm approaches he explored earlier in his career as half of the postal service and a member of figurine - with a healthy dose of pampa otherworldliness on top. now, robag wruhme steps in and recontextualizes two aimlessness cuts for a remix ep. wruhme is already a beloved member of dj koze’s extended family, having released the full-length thora vukk about one year ago, which was deemed another success for both him and pampa” in resident advisors four-star review. first up is robags kloff mottüré mix of bright night, a starry-eyed transformation of dntels work that twinkles like fireflies in the clear midnight sky.with symphonic splashes, playful pitter-patters and a tranquil breakdown, it sounds a bit like teenage toads skinny-dipping amongst the lilypads. next up, robag finds inspiration in dntels jitters,not once but twice: the marf labo mix takes the title quite literally,offering a jittery breakbeat interpretation with a metallic angel chorus swirling over the haphazard beats. finally, on the flip side,the emmens worsch mix brings things more closely aligned with the grooving, heartfelt house thump that pampa has engendered. its the eps most dj-friendly cut, while at the same time showing off robags gentle production touches and letting tamborellos sweet, subdued voice shine through.

we think everything we release on frijsfo is fresh. at the same time we believe it doesnt hurt to stay in touch with your roots, which is something buzzin10 does in a fascinating way. we cant tell you much about this young producer from east london, a publicity-shy individual whose music we first heard thanks to his older brother. but we do know he pieces together rhythms by sampling fragments from old tape packs – mainly garage nations late 90s recordings of some of the best djs of all time, including dj ez, karl tuff enuff brown, dj luck & mc neat, and ray hurley.
dj support so far comes from sully, desto, oslek, warlock, kingthing, resketch, rk and ltf (wifey ldn), cardopusher, valta, dusk & blackdown

after their first hello on the 6 years hive compilation adriatique is back on hive audio with a full ep. the swiss- based duo recently released some remarkable pieces of music in the last months with amzing feedbacks and chart-postitions. the aint nobody ep shows a few typical adriatique sounds but has a darker touch. the original a-side is filled with some old school housebeats paired with heavy synth work, deep vocals & a rolling bassline which makes this track work for every time of the night or morning. atapys remix of aint nobody goes into the same direction but delivers his very own interpretation. he put on the atapy stamp through his characteristic synthmelodies. then we have another original track from adriatique. mind games is a heavy dance floor track with lots of content. pretty much electronic with melodies and spoken vocals which really put mind games on the map. overall all tracks are made for the club and will achieve their goal. dancing not only with the body but also with the soul.

this release represent in a sense the spirit of what we are. we started to think about it around 3 years ago, and is good to say that everything is gone positive. all the artists involved are connect from the same empathy and love, and things happened in the most natural way. collecting all the infos about mrs. endresen and mr. wesseltoft and looking at ninca and bruno biography, and of course with andrea and hubble always is our minds, we can affirm one more time the power of this intense feeling that keep us close to each other.

in his biography, arjuna schiks is described as a producer with an ability to bring the human out of the machine, unleashing our emotions. after listening to doha , we were affected in the same way. simply put, his music makes us feel good. melodic accents and danceable rhythms blend in purposeful unison, and it is with the doha ep that arjuna will join wir. he has appeared on gem records, manual music, traum, and trapez, with original eps, and has recently graced a number of labels with remixes, leaving his signature on each ep. his production output is impressive, and like most greats, his sound continues to grow and develop with each studio session. arjuna resides in amsterdam, where he has developed a distinct and solid sound, and a loyal fan base. he performs live close to every weekend all over holland. we invited arjuna to come and perform as the special guest at our treibstoff 14.5 year anniversary party for his first ever performance on german soil. his set was received with smiling faces and hands in the air, coming from the brimming dance floor of colognes gewölbe, a warm welcome to say the least. we had the pleasure of spending some time together after the event, and his character is just like his music. he is a cheerful and passionate person with a bright sense of humor and we are elated to welcome him to wir. keep your ears open, for there is more to come..

if you like the sound of cheap analog synthesizers from the mid 80s, drum machines and strangely pitched human voices this might be the record for you. a small warning about the quite melodic and poppy arrangement, it is not minimal, nor pure drones. sorry. estelle ep has nothing to do with the car Škoda estelle, even though some instruments used on the songs were produced during the same years. estelle ep is more or less a result of the new kranglan broadcast hardware studio environment. the plan was simple: to get rid of the machines that were not being used and to make the rest communicate with each other. this resulted in some very fine jams where realtime feelings and spontaneous ideas were converted into music. each track is its own moment in time.

ayoze chico & ollie mendez aka sonogama met each other at the beginning of the 90s thanks to the same interest and enthusiasm for house music. with some more material to be released soon, these two will be very soon ones to watch!

gogo music is ten years old, and now is celebrating its 50th release. this time it is a great collaboration between ralf gum and robert owens. ralf gums mix is a deep track that start with percussive groove. deep, fat bassline under elettro synths perfect for dancefloor. the remix is under dj spinnas knowledge with same ingredients but more deep and hypnotic. useless to comment robert owens voice. always useful instrumental and beat versions. a package to have ... for sure in top 10.

cork based producer and dj shane linehan has cut quite the impressive swathe in the first few months of 2012, anointing his own basic groove imprint in fine style with the swiftly sold out 12 inch my initial grooves as well as gracing mad mats local talk label with a stellar vinyl drop. linehan returns to the controls for the second basic groove release with more of the same - namely deep, tracky productions notable for a crispness in percussion and rawness in texture. lead track >get together< is a swaggering example of linehans style, with a groove formed of low set bass stabs and playful neon chords. its complemented by the deeper sounds of >the future< with the opening shards of dubby chords soon aided and abetted by snapping rimshot percussion, thick bass clouds and the whispered titular vocal.

so, who is this mysterious afefe iku? after absolutely destroying the dancefloors all year long with his infamous bootleg of radioheads >everything in its right place<, which he smartly put out in extremely limited amounts of vinyl around the same time his mentor, osunlade, featured his cover of that very same song on bbes >exit music: songs with radio heads<. in all honesty afefe remains a mystery even to us. so, let us start by saying who afefe isnt. unfortunately, for those who thought he was osunlade, you are mistaken, but dont feel ashamed, because afefe creates at osunlades studio in santorini, which makes sense to pinpoint him as osunlade.

sam cooke, inventor and true king of soul, recorded >mr. soul< in the same year as >night beat< (movlp163), and seems to be its more adult counterpart, with soulful ballads taking up most of the album.

record store day is synonymous with exclusive and limited releases and this year is no different. featuring a collaboration ep with adrianyounge from venice dawn and black dynamite fame and adrian quesada from the echocentrics, ocote soul sounds, brownout and grammy-winning grupo fantasma. a first name is not all adrian younge and adrian quesada share, they also both have an equal love of the psychedelic, the cinematic and at the root of it all, soul music. so it was inevitable that a collaboration would eventually come to fruition. mutual admirers of each others work, they first met at the sxsw music festival while on the same bill. both began their production careers on mpc and taught themselves various instruments to further capture the symphonies heard in their heads. fresh off his current solo project something about april under the moniker venice dawn, adrian younge found time to create all new tracks with adrian quesada who just released his echoland tribute to timbaland with the echocentrics. although both are distinct artists in their own right, they are cut from the same cloth with a signature sound thats equal parts morricone, early portishead, wu-tang and 60s psychedelic cinema soundtracks. their combined efforts on this ep guarantees a double dose of the sound we have come to expect from these talented individuals.

nice price deal !!! manchesters mindset records celebrates its tenth release, giving a debut 12 inch to rising young producer stickman to continue a strong tradition of breaking new talent to the world. with a well respected and much loved back catalogue providing a solid foundation to build upon, mindset again eschew the more conventional option of relying upon big names to sell records. debut releases on the label for xxxy, narcossist (now kowton), hatti vatti and label owner indigo himself have all propelled each artist to their respective standings today and mindset 010 looks set to do the same for stickman.

with surprise cut on center ... after the success of the first release, tanstaafl returns for their second wax adventure, this time with the musical renegade dj october at the helm. october has entered a new phase of production for the tanstaafl series and has focused himself firmly on a reduced, stripped and effective formula for the floor. his productions are heavy, smoked out narcoleptic dub infused journeys, and his latest 12 offers more or less of the same opaque vibe but with his sights firmly set on the floor, with one foot in the past and the other in the future - drawing from his usual detroit, nyc and chicago influences. so we kick off 2012 with a future classic, singularity jump, which douses you in synthesized saxophone hooks, chopped vocal samples and a meaty juno hip-house inspired bass-line.planet of minds is more of a inner space affair very much inspired by acid and dub. successfully combining the two, october injects more of an airy feel into the mix and delivers a moody cosmic acid jam that will not fail your dancing feet or tripped-out mind. definitely one for the later hours.this is going to be an anthem, hands down, so get it before its gone for good.

billyonair back on the main labels. after his melodic release on mainrecords in 2011 billy now delivered some dub-influenced technotracks. we start with flying north. cold and spheric sounds are combined in this song but with the right amount of melodies. on a2 martin woerner remixed where am i. a nice pumping track which will hit the dance floors. on b1 we have klain main - strange chord-sounds meets nice grooves is the best way to discribe it. and last but not least the original of where am i which goes in the same direction like flying north - deep melodic dub-techno. for the digital lovers we have another (stripped down) version of flying north and a supercool remix of “where am i” by our buddies pascal feos & frank leicher.release comes in green-coloured vinyl.

its been a while since we have seen a release from dfrnt for on the edge, but im proud to announce, the wait is finally over! this ep provides us with an abundance of different flavours, but still retains the genius sound that is dfrnt at the very core of every tune. let me first draw to your attention to >the big freeze<. its a drum and bass track that has been moulded like a true pro. it sounds like dfrnt has been producing d+b for a long time with the finishes on this track, but believe its one of his earlier efforts. its a refreshing bpm for his take on electronic music and hope to hear more of the same from dfrnt soon. then dfrnt shows us what he is all about when he goes all out 4x4. a dirty, gritty techno roller (with a skip) that will blow your socks off! love the production on this one. then we have >monday morning<. this does exactly what it says on the tin, just the type of tune you need to bring you down after a heavy weekend. as though that wasnt enough, there is a 170 remix from man of the moment, indigo! support comes from: hatti vatti, synkro, versa, mary ann hobbs, kissy sell out, fused forces, loxy, dj rum, 501 and truth to name a few.

the title track on tychos long-awaited dive lp is just that — a ripple effect record that sounds like three songs in one, as if sound/graphic designer scott hansen just discovered progrock and decided to apply its winding passages to his own singular blend of sinewy synths and bleached beats. its also the first tycho song to feature a prominent guest musician, guitarist zac brown, in this case, who paints outside the lines of hansens halcyon hooks with restless rhythms and monorail-like riffs. the >dive< single fleshes things out even further, as keep shelly in athens and memoryhouse — both rising underground artists in their own right — cut hansens cloud-scraping composition in half and slow his cruise control chords down to a crawl. the misty vocal melodies are still there, but they are now floating through an embryonic assembly of jittery cicadas, rusty gears, and lean loops that are both welcoming and a bit woozy. the sonic equivalent of staring at the sun for too long, really, or two sides of the same cracked mirror.

conjures klfs cult convictions, with the same stadium strength and flamboyant fire-technics. imagine shirtless strobe-bro brawn, almost religious in its glory-grandiosity, martin gore-geous as an opulent outing.

limited to 300 copies. available only on vinyl.
for the fourth ep on austere, irelands slowburn are welcomed into the fold. having impressed us with releases on uzuri and elektrosouls this ep will not disappoint fans of the label to kick things off we have the the hustle which sounds like something that prescription forgot to release back in the day! next up is broken document which delivers lovely warm analogue chords and pads interlaced with an 808 groove. the b-side starts off with do it using various samples to great effect to culminate in a unique deep house sound. finishing things off in much the same territory is from another angle which again brings the warm chords and pads, but also brings to the table some really delicate synth lines to create a surreal effect.

new to the finale family vincenzo a veteran to the dance music industry he has been a mainstay on dessous, liebe detail, to name a few and here he delivers >you remind me<, detained for the record bags for sure with its deep vibe and its lush programming: ersatile for any dance floor. stuart li aka basic soul unit is also new to finale and here he delivers a floor filler called >depthcharge<, with its deep chords and stabbing synths then a hint of acid and what we have is the ingredients to a peak time masterpiece. last but not least we have mr. joey anderson part of new school deep house masters of new york from the same crew as fred.p, levon vincent, qu, and also part of the underground quality crew run by jus ed. >trapped in motion< brings an underground sound that few can really get across properly. the drums are what gives this track the ammo it needs to provide proper deepness and structure to the dance floor.

after a short hiatus diamonds and pearls is back with another stunning release by the mysterious eat. >rapture< takes you on a twisted disco journey which slowly but surely turns into a grinding acidic trip. on the b-side he heads for headier tropes, dismissing the 4×4 template for a mesmerizing and moody percussive workout somewhere between monolake and shackleton & pinchs collaboration with the first cut >sand<, before he unleashes the brooding >flux< which sports a nasty modulated squelching bassline and the same off-kilter dubstep-feel. dnp and eat are definitely back – with a bang!

the cl interpretations, based on the sixth melted recordings release cl versions of echtzeit, were firstly divided into two sucessful releases: part 1 and 2. now that more artists of circle of friends of melted have done their own interpretations, a third part was released. this time all tracks were based on the same track three, but now with a wide-spread spectrum of techno – from melodic, deep and dubtech to harder, diffused and current state of the art techno. monomood, known from the melted recordings friended label etui records, starts with his constructive warm and melodic rebuild called 3cl of echo. also aerror is here into deep dubtechno, much different as his last version of part 1. sector varied his track for part 1 into a more deep dub but kicking techno track terminals rmx. bassart, an austrian techno and electro dj, comes a with highly diffused hard techno interpretation – his first vinyl appearance. it is the first techno track (called cotta re-dub) of bons on vinyl, too. he is in the circle of friends and supporter of melted for many years, since the start in 1999.

this latest 12 comes courtesy of phil mison & pete herberts much lauded reverso 68 project. baa boo is exactly the kind of blissfully dreamy groove we have come to expect from this accomplished production duo, musical, melodic and tailormade for sunnier climes. on the flip we have piano 89, pretty self explanatory really, but for the benefit of those not pushing 40, its an old school house jam, drenched in the kind of italo piano hook that used to ignite late 80s dancefloors and is destined to do the same some 20 years on - magical.

for correspondant 06, we have invited another french producer who comes from paris and calls himself offset. after a series of jazz/funk projects, offset found his calling with electronic music. >gazoline< is the title track and its a straight dance floor burner that crawled under our skin on the first listen. >subversive< is proof that slow can be dark, groovy, powerful, and sexy all at the same time, and >addicted< has a taste of trance just the way we like it, not too much, but just enough.
supported by maetrik, karrotte, chloe, ewan pearson, ivan smagghe, the hacker ...

feadz and kito met in 2008 at a music festival in australia and bonded instantly over their passion for music and music production. the pair kept in contact over the years and met up a number of times when they found themselves in the same city. in 2011 feadz invited kito to visit him in paris to work on some music. after a week in the studio an exciting new project was born, a project that celebrates their mutual love for techno music

eduardo de la calle releases three new records, two on analog solutions, and one on sub label suprawax. musically, the tracks tie in with where he left of, featuring held back percussion, hypnotic and prolonged use of slowly modulated patterns. several tracks even do away completely with hi-hats. once in a while the almost trademark tweak of the delay tears the tracks open that are otherwise reduced to the essence of a deep groove. these records mark a new high point in de la calles musical output: they meld an awareness of techno history - and, let us be candid, sometimes samples out of it - with a tripped-out understanding for the passing time on the dance floor. the result is a form of distinctly contemporary dance music. all the same, de la call’s music eludes present day trends of going overtly retro and being contently at rest in nothing but epigonism. nor are they the maximised-to-death tracks spun of the present day techno functionalist goading crowds by the means of formalistic upbuilds over and over. his sound carves out a niche quite its own: its the ultimate modern day dj tool. all records have been pressed in a run of 320 copies and come in inside-out natural cardboard sleeves. no represses are planned at present.

a symbiosis of two perfectionists who would like to surprise with something new and got lost in the deep widenesses of techno. now, zdenko grbavac and morgenklang let it come true and release their first record in common. the two tracks are technoid, impulsive and surprising at the same time. >epos< comes out on top at the middle distinctivly. the tracks baseline is remindful of the early 80s synth-pop and sounds in combination with the remaining parts like an unstoppable train. the track >novum< is a monster of chord and pushes relentlessly. however the athmosphere creates a certain easiness and moves the audience in a dreamy state.

big with mathias kaden, dorian paic, meat, robert dietz, chistian burkhardt.... the second release for this year is also coming from laurentiu gavrila better known as funk e. the tracks blew our mind right away and here is also another thought we would like to share with you for this series of two eps divided in part 1 and 2. string theory - 2 pianos that are in the same room, if u play one note at one of the pianos, the string with the very same note from the other piano will resonate as well. that string is the heart!

funckarma goes in league with onionboy (darko esser), both delivering a track of their own, and a remix of each others. funckarmas rusty w is lush electronics and heavy dubstep at the same time, effective & abstract dancefloor artillery! onionboys remix is a 100% old school electro track, solid as a rock and reminding a bit of old rude66 and satamile tracks. onionboys kokon is an electronic beauty that keeps building up.. tick layers of nostalgic synths over firm beats... magical! funckarma turn this track inside out with their typical and complex idm beat structures that can only be done by the funcken minds. another uncatagorizable shipwrec release, limited to 300 copies, full colour artwork and a download code to redeam all audiotracks and artwork in digital format.

warm, sparse, subtle pulsating ambient/ambient house album.
what is behind >human too<? its the debut album by thomas bachner – the hidden mind running playtracks records, releasing his debut album. first audio studies recognise the order of the tracks: in the end, the ten stories, each embedded in the right place, shape the album like a well-written childrens book of sound. its the first glimpse into the depths of the playtracks head and it feels curious and thriving at the same time. catalogue number 11, it reaches the human ear from several directions: downtempo, house, clicks&cuts, ambient and a subtle bit of techno and jazz. by filling the albums grooves they make it an audititve pleasure, both at home and while clubbing. enjoy your meal!

a cool work from xpansul and alessio mereu coming back together in the same ep, after the previous project from somewhere to nowhere released on 2009 on t-bet records. but this time theres a striclty featuring enclosed in the emphasis of two tracks, including a remix by sasha carassi already known for his great works on various labels such drumcode and mores.moldy oscillatoris a powerful mix of synth attacks and transporting bassline, the kick is very deep but strong too. an ancestral background takes everything so dark and aggressive, a great techno dark mix.second step for moldy oscillatorremixed by sasha carassi, the bassline is very fat and hard, the synth runs in background very hypnotic and insidious. heavy techno dark gear of course.acid cream whiphas a pumping groove and is framed by a an electronic bassline, an acid synth carrying the track very high, rolling chords and majestic cuts. acid pumping techno tune. a flawless job, where youth and experience are a winner pair for an epic release of course. analytic trail, your trusted music dealer.
