warehouse find of this moodymann classic. limited stock!
produced by kenneth dixon jr, this is the follow up to >i m doing fine< 12 with amp fiddler (mahogani 2 is only available in detroit apparantly..).

nr 9 in the series comes with the driving, bass led edit from cerrones >striptease< on the a side and the easier ralph mcdonald >play pen< track on the flip. tip!

warehouse find . brand new release from levon vincent on his own novel sound label. limited edition, stamped white labels. this is a hot, hot 12 inch and we absolutely love it!!! a handful of releases on novel sound, decontruct music and his simply amazing recent remix for clone have forced everyone to recognize one of the biggest talents to come out of new york in recent years - levon vincent. >double jointed sex freak< is a dirty, stomping three track ep with deep and dubby elements, rough house beats and vocal repetitions that even remind us of some old chicago jack trax. needless to say this is highly recommended. tip!

4 track 12 with exclusive music to the forthcoming same titled album. swinger than doubt is already a popular track in their live performance, a bit in the vein of the st. germain classic rose rouge. ana is a percussive electronic cut with chants and reminds of certain villalobos/luciano productions push! features japanese mc twiggy. last track acid typhoon is on a acid house tip and has an oldschool chicago sample.

yc‘s adultnapper has built a reputation for himself that not only commands respect for his highly evolved production skills, but also for his unique musical visions that steer him down his own unique path. not interested in following the current pop-trends, adultnapper turns in a freaky two tracker using a sharp, modular and timeless electronic sound palette. ‚almost nothing‘ is a complex and reduced spacer that features wonderfully processed drums and endless tweaked out studio trickery. haunting smatterings of melody, synth texture and paranoid-funky vocals drop in and out of the mix as this deep acidic groover charms you from the inside. poker flat regular patrick chardronnet provides a wicked remix that begins along the same reduced, textural tip as the original, yet builds into a breathtaking organ led harmonic climax. dramatic, uplifting and main-room friendly chardronnet‘s remix opens up the spectrum once again as audiomatique continues to surprise. ‚white fingers black hair‘ is the b side jam from adultnapper. a skipping, similarly complex and meandering groove is jacked up with some dirty hats and a playful synth theme that revolves around the track, amongst building strings and gated snares as its freaky climax is unveiled. super, off the wall stuff from nyc‘s chief mindwaper himself

4 classic pieces re edited, re structured by bottin (known for his italians do it better release). strange conenction for this italian with the us. but we are happy that the magick edits allstars took mr bottin in their crew... big tip..

after the debut albums from future beat alliance and aardvarck, delsin strikes again with this very deep soulful ambient techno album by dimension 5. until now dimension 5 did have only released one 12, but one which was directly praised by fabrice lig, laurent garnier and others. his album alien artform holds both deep, ambient like techno to listen to (think: john beltran & detroit escalator company) as well as more dancefloor-aimed material, without losing the soft touch, (think: kenny larkin & aril brikha). this is (detroit) techno as it is meant to be: soulful & deep. should appeal to fans of aril brikha, d.e.s. and the dubbier german techno stuff. tip!

ac records first release. the new label is a division of acidlab (normally known for its analogue hardware clones) with a focus on promoting dark, electronic music by unknown artists. a1 - >viva olive< is a dark psychoacoustic acid track by hteah via portland, oregon. his time at present is spent building his soundsystem and helping manifest semi autonomous festivals. a2 - > tip-tilt< is a spacy acid groover by glum-c. b1+b2 are hard dancefloor tracks by db24 (steve romani) from lyon. steve is a studio rat with a lot of music output. the record comes in olive-coloured marbled vinyl and is limited to 150 records.

this is an edition of 99 one sided 12inch (some black and some clear green) vinyl copies. each copy comes with a numbered info sheet and a handsprayed delta. tip!!

dan curtin, now releasing records for 11 years, returns back to classic form with a 4 track ep of smooth, deep, calculated beats. dan takes us through a time warp with elements of jazz, funk, and r&b, with his own inimitable touch that puts his music in a unique category all its own. autonomic groove reminds of the better purveyors of fine funk material, while other songs such as bygone epigone and chained present new takes on dans familiar jazzy sound. another cool down low item!! tip!

eastbound recordings returns for its 3rd release! this time on a very deep tip, perfect for those long summer nights. orlando b presents two deep house grooves and mr g takes care of the b-side with his hypnotic mellow remix.

vinyl only !! its mysterious, its white, its sounds very good, its the insider tip… last copies left….

cobblestone jazz founding member danuel tate is back on the solo tip with his newest project for wagon repair - wag055 >doesnt like you back ep< - and this time, probably as a result of spending so much time on the road with bandmates mathew jonson and tyger dhula, he is bringing it harder. although some familiar elements from his first ep, >pushcard<, can be found in the horns and synths mixing together to form the beds for the quirky vocoder, this five-track release comes more direct. >doesnt like you back< reflects the moment on the dance floor when you realize the woman next to you is way out of your league, which we guess isnt a bad feeling as long as you like dancing with super hot women.

a bomb in the making, holger and dave teams up w ith richard davis for a vocal gem out of this w orld ! deep, yet driving smooth house production mixed w ith richards heavenly vocals, this is hot ! on the remix tip the ever reliable kiki doing his w onders, keeping the vocal parts intact but turning the techno scale a few notches, this w ill appeal on all floors. also included the original dub version for the vocal-shy djs around !

supported by laurent garnier, ben watt, dj yellow, shur i kan, nils nurnberg, florian meindl, mark knight, axwell!!! looking through my harddrive i just realized that this track is more than 2 years old ... shame on us!!! a few people were lucky enough to got it sent back then and the feedback was already exciting! the original version is a pure deephouse anthem drenched with pure soul! starting off with a moody and dark filtered string it leads into a pumpin deephouse groove ready to climax into a beautiful rhodes chord progression and that lovely m.u.s.i.c. vocal. its a perfect blend between deephouse and soul - pretty rare these days and set to become a future classic!! fred everythings mix is slightly more on the disco tip, tight drums and arrangement and a perfect addition to this package. finally we have another colab between the 2 label heads - called electric girl. its a sweet little disco midtempo groover with the typical trademarks of those 2 guys! enjoy this beautiful release - many people have been asking for this for quite a while!!

great all time classic track from blake baxter ... our luv ... this unique acidic house was released first in 1997 on disko b (the h-factor, album) , than pokerflats steve bug licensed this one for his sublabel >raw elements<, (various - da minimal funk 2, raw626). eleven years later (heavy demanded) blakes classic strikes back on decks classix ! a special tip for those who knows!!

hot city is dropping some severely skewed house music, twisting it up with his own blend of jackin chicago house, 2step/ukg, and bass bumpers. with only two tracks sent out to a handful of the finest djs around in the past few months, he s secured two gigs playing out at wifey, certainly the most fun club in london at the moment, and managed to generate a fair amount of hype already:
- smash, this is a mega rave hit bro, nice one! - drop the lime (t&b / nyc)
- very nice, thanks for this, will def play it - hudson mowhawke (warp / glasgow)
- i really like both these tracks, kinda minimal garage, very cool - hannah holland (batty bass / london)
the tracks on this new 12 inch build on the momenetum, with two tracks of stripped down dancefloor killers - >yeah!< is a monster builder, all todd edwards style swing and tight edits with crazy deep kicks, chopped up vocals, old school piano stabs, soaring strings, and hands in the air breakdowns. already being played out by drop the lime (check his latest exclusive mix for fact magazine where he opens his set with >yeah!<). >head work< on the b side is on more of a masters at work/harddrive era tip - deep garage beats tripping over themselves, burbling oddity synths, shuffling snares and the weirdest vocal melody breakdown/build-up ever!
the originals are complimented on the 12 inch by two remixes - tvo takes yeah! to another dimension altogther with a head destroying 140bpm hardcore junglist remix. on the flip, san franciscos eats tapes take >head work< into the wonkiest area of minimalist techno, showcasing their totally unique take on future groove.
the ep has been mastered by the irrefutable shawn hatfield/twerks special touch, bringing out the strengths of each track and tweaked for that perfect crisp warm vinyl pressing.

back to jack with steve summers... his debut release was the big surprise for everyone... the best vintage (acid) house tracks we could wish. and more of that intense classic house music on the follow up. here in our office we have people shouting rewind rewind and flashing the lights on and of as fast as possible when we play this! a must have for all fans of larry heard, joe lewis etc. big tip!

oh gosh, repress! out of nowhere like an amsterdam rain shower comes this total classic from the early days of rush hour... sits perfectly in the recent discofied house revival, great to have back on the shelves! tip!

white label 12 inch on the hipster club tip. called a career making record by switch ? >somebody get pregnant< is a nasty, throbbing cut aimed straight for the club. it s a tune that s been floating around since 2008, and has everyone from mad decent (who tried to sign it) to three six mafia (who tried to buy the hook) clamouring for a piece. major lazer also featured the tune on their new essential mix for bbc radio 1. acapella and instrumental included as well. on the b-side, ninjasonik gives up a couple of cuts that won t be seeing proper release due to some sampling issues : >shoot the lazer<, a raunchy club tune that jacks the opening to a certain animated movie classic, and >daylight<, a bootie remix of the matt and kim song by the same name. rounding out the 12 inch is >stir<, a minimal dancefloor tune with stuttering, drunken style vocal takes. sweet!

big with: adam beyer, dubfire, mauro picotto, anja schneider, mark broom, len faki and many others !!! tip !!!

ltd repress !!! und noch n hit auf border. würde boards of canada dancemusik machen, würde das bestimmt so klingen. tip

new m>o>s sublabel.... chicago skyway first released this beauty on eargasmic (digital onlyl) and the man behind m>o>s has done the right thing and pressed it on our favorite format. 3 versions including a clever edit from aroy dee... tip top.

the mighty beat assassins return on mofo this time with a tidy collab with vocalist sweetie irie, and with a tip top remix from the one they call ac slater this release will put mofo back where it belongs, at the top of the pile!!

time to express is pleased to present the first results of the collaboration between italian producer donato dozzy and colognes finest, cio d or. both artists have recorded seperately for labels such as wagon repair, railyard, aquaplano, motoguzzi, broque and treibstoff. a great three track ep with dirty minimalized techno killers that must be played out loud for full effect! somehow reminiscent to the good old days from minimal unit moebius and plastikman tracks.... when minimal techno wasnt about pleasing the crowd (which it did after all). 3 tracks with deep sub bass driven grooves and distant melodies that move in spirals in and out of the mix with a moving and twisting beat. it s sour and dirty, with a touch of that particular blend of mesmerising techno both producers are known for. the peter van hoessen mix is more upfront and in your face. mental introvert techno tracks that will take the party to another level! tip!

killer peak time monster!! decks tip!!!
