puenktlich zu sharon jones diesj?hrigem geburtstag wird die band ihren vierten longplayer >i learned the hard way< auf dem unabhaengigen brooklyner label daptone records veroeffentlichen. das album ist ein wichtiger schritt nach vorne f?r die band, die nahezu im alleingang die r?ckkehr von soul zu (s)einem traditionelleren sound losgetreten hat.

remastered re-issue on heavy 180 gram vinyl of this 1985 breakthrough-album by the cure..

announcing the 10th release, succesfully tested on several occasions!! already heavy plays by luciano (love it!!! have been playing it like crazy)

big with dubfire, richie hawtin, sven väth, luciano, stephan bodzin, loco dice, karotte, adam beyer, mandy! after d-edge in sao paulo and rex in paris, oliver huntemann selected cielo club in new york to record his third compilation from the play! series. cielo is like no other. tucked cosily in the ultra-hip meat packing district and having won numerous awards for best club in new york, it seemed the perfect pick for this special project the ep, introducing the compilation, consists of two tracks which oliver huntemann produced specially for the big apple. nyc (keep on playin) summarizes perfectly the mood of the city that never sleeps. groovy, somewha melancholic but always ready for more.

two gorgeous tracks from detroits moods and grooves label that will fit nicely in the bags of djs who like it live and with a little world-music flair! bouncy latin drums, flutes and soft keys mix nicely on this new mix of abica souls and glenn undergrounds >esta hermosa cancion<, while gene hunts >i live< gets a tasteful dub mix. strong record that will sound great at the shelter!

its always good to grow slowly and lasting. a sagacity that patrick specke, our very good friend from düsseldorf, internalized. in three years he only released three mesmerizing and breathtaking eps on labels like kahlwild and desolat. now he enters the floor with some smiling excursions of deepness on hello?repeat. we are very happy to have you on board mister specke!!!

with ‚into the great wide yonder trentemøller is not only exploring new moody and atmospheric universes, but combines his sense for glorious soundscapes with a firm melodic and tonal touch. the original chord progressions and feel for melodies is fundamental to him, and thats also the reason why most of the instruments are played by trentemøller himself on this album. >i like the possibility to be surprised that chords and melodies change into something new. the music that i like most lets the themes and sounds come back in different disguises<. the danish multi instrumentalist and producer shows an unexpected talent for finding vocalists that fit the mood of his songs. the first single of the album, the beautifully tender >sycamore feeling<, featuring marie fisker, is a typical highlight

catcalling from the depths of a city seen from the outside as crumbling, sonic grooves carve a path to the soulful detroit duo known simply as the oliverwho factory. first noticed across the primitive music sharing plateaus of a decade past, the oliverwho factory quickly gained notoriety overseas with a glasgow based distribution, and a keen sense of product importance, releasing rich, mood-driven tracks on vinyl, inspired by and resonating the roots of rock, pop, jazz, and r&b. earth near-silently stumbles with the distinct yet mysterious, funk laden blend of house and techno that oliverwho and shonie c. so naturally provide. like stepping into dreamscapes of unknown desire, the obscure flavor of owf s tunes keeps unconventional beauty and otherworldly adventure at the forefront of this duo s detroit-based soundboard.

incl marc van linden mix, steve murano mix, cj stone meets re-fuge remix & future breeze remix

canadas finest carlo lio is debuting on sk supreme. after several releases on labels like blufin, monique musique, sci-tec and the very successfull >breakfast in bag ep< on quartz this is the new single combined with three strong remixes

here we have a double a-side 12-inch, with an intriguing new development of the secondo sound. still banging, still aimed at the club but with a sense of maturity and laid-backness, that the previous secondo material for dreck records might not have been centred around. the whole outlook has become more house orientated and we are very excited about this new mixture of the secondo splice-funk with the steadiness of early 90s house generating its own idiosyncratic sound. on the a-side, i think im gonna likeestablishes the housey mood of the 12straight off. a brief vocal sample is dotted over a relaxed rhythm until a break mid-track introduces the second half to its full extent and bloom. ædoktor panglosson the b-side continues with the mid-tempo flavour set out by the aside and is defined by a steady build up towards a disco sample beautifully placed towards the end of the track, where a heavy bass line cuts short the euphoria of disco strings. the sampling and references in both tracks have been pushed to the background and mentioning any of them would not do this exciting new material any justice. its all fresh!

the next generation has arrived... 19 yr old space dimension controller with his take on music history! the best ingredients from big inspirators innocently mixed together with a natural cool that gives him a own unique sound! dr dre s sexy funk combined with deep drexciya and the other peoples place vibes, early uk house and techno melodies from people such as plaid and boards of canada all stisiness. actually its not very fair coming with all these names since here since nobody sounds like sdc and sdc sounds like no one else! and thats what the people at clone like... artists with their own unique finger print. oh and did we already mention the remix of that other young bloke? 18 yr old kyle hall does a hell of a remix job here! two natural talents dropping a release that will be one of 2010 s hottest records for sure. the next generation is taking control!

akin to deconstruction itself, >the gift< symbolised the credible mid 90s dance hit. surrounded by a fog of cheap commercial fodder, way out wests roberta flack-sampling crossover anthem shone like a beacon, reaching the top 15 of the uk singles chart in 1996.
kicking off the new package is way out wests own 2010 remix. toughening up the original break based drums and adding a few new synth lines is all wow needed to do to breath a second life in their ubiquitous track.
gui borattos remix takes the track into deep tech house territory. gui flips the track to a straight 4/4 beat, adding some organic percussion, side chained chords and his trademark warm distorted synths to create a truly euphoric groove.

big with markus kavka, dubfire, aki bergen, andre kronert, feygin, sebastian roya, secret cinema, pierce, moodymanc and many more.
dont miss the next long awaited vinyl on night drive music. this time we gave the black gold to hypnos. hypnos (deepology, urbantorque, myhouse, box music) presents now his 2nd release on night drive music. he graduated from music school in guitar, and played keyboards in a rock band for a few years. he was member of the infamous >demoscene< in poland - an unofficial and underground group of like-minded people mixing music with street graphics. the original is a never ending dream between sweet deepness and techy elements. its hard to describe the tune. just listen please! remixes are coming from pawas, subsky and stefan mallmann.

rage & error music, the new east german techno label of stephan strube and cj key presents its first release with tracks by well known artists like sascha ewe (abstract, abschuss) , aaron the pimp (50hz, killaz) and the first release of 10/40 live act perry. the record is completed by a track produced by the label owners.

nice price deal !!! the portraits series is a project born out of the meeting between music and art. the pictures on the record covers of the five releases are a sample of the photographic work of claudio gaiaschi, renowned milanese photographer, who shot dozens advertising campaigns for numerous international brands but also author of artistic pictures being showed at exhibitions in paris, london, new york, rome, baku, tblisi. claudio gaiaschi has been praised by masters artists of the photo like mario giacomelli and in tratti (the collection where the portraits series covers are taken from) he tells the stories of new families framing them in a non-pose having a result of >... pictures that last: in embarassment, in tenderness, in hostility. actual faces of ancestors.< (cit. nicola del falco)

minority boss hector moralez teams up with life long friend oscar miranda for a belting 3 track ep on minority. >last of an era< has a killer bassline and a hypnotic vocal that will keep the floor moving all night. >for realz< is on the deeper tip and the boys uses spacey keys & trippy vocals to devastating effect. last but not least is >about time<. this sounds like derrick carter style beats meets a mood ii swing style bass line, nuff said. boom!

new massive single for meck & dino lenny! craig dimech aka meck was a&r for ministry of sound, and produced hits like >thunder in my heart again< (1 uk chart in 2006),>feels like home< , 2007 hit that was the beginning of collaboration with dj/producer dino lenny. several times during her 2009 >sticky & sweet tour<, madonna opened her concerts with >like a prayer< & >feels like home< mash-up, and for this meck & dino obtained authorization for this release.

a welcome return for jaime read who has been releasing quality deep house and techno since the mid 90s via his own push ii shove label, tenth planet, fragmented and ugly music. here he drops a timeless ep of house and techno rythims to great effect. messages from outer space is a deep slice of timeless 808 driven electro soul. name no names moves along with spaced out keys and a sax line reverbed to great effect. no relief has that old school chicago house sound with piano stabs and a lush string breakdown. digital acid wraps it up sounding much like the title suggests with deep 808 bass and floor smashing snares

new black acre special armed response unit returns with a party rocker celebrating an era the artist is too young remember and the a&r was too high to remember.
pumpin like reeboks: an adrenaline soaked dose of pure nosebleed speed garage rave crossbred with dubsteps bassonics and 90s b-boy swagger. raffertie hits his stride with his most accessible & anthemic work to date. pounding 4x4 kicks bounce off cylon bass cannon blasts and crashing 808 claps battle rave sirens for dominance of the air space. clipped vocal edits and pinpricks of distorted noise are littered though out this blood pressure raising carnival ride as a constant reminder that this is party music with intellect.

exium brings new solid evidence that techno is not dead, although some doomsayers take a while preaching an end, techno is alive: and a lot! and evolving thanks to proposals like this!

rene amesz, michael woods rmxs! this will be a big one

new project of super duo the revenge and harri ( resident of glasgows legendary sub club ).one cut in a early 80s boogie/ hip hop style while the flip harks back to the early 70ies psychedelic soul craze with a stomping soul disco cut a bit like the revenges planets on jisco music a while back ( but still going strong!). you cant go wrong with this

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

the one-two kick drum beat that starts “in the dark of the night” functions as a bit of a tease. instead of merely establishing the languid pace of the track, it has the power of suggestion, and its stark nakedness raises the question of what will happen after the music fully launches. a few seconds later, a punch-drunk, flanging keyboard is the first clue that the listener is in for an off-kilter ride, the sauntering bassline that next appears adds a springy, funk bounce. but it’s the tripped-out, multi-tracked vocals of fernando miranda rios, aka michoacan, the producer behind this slow reveal, that give the song its peculiar, space-yvibe. it’s like david byrne with funk aspirations and a vaguely cosmic feel. the b-side remix, courtesy of italy’s clap rules, feels like more of a re-build. the song has been taken apart and put back together with brand new parts. instead of more relaxed, dazed funk at the core, it’s a glittery, disco-ball splattered track with glossy keys all around.

we imagine chaotic crowds on the dancefloor dancing in the dark , ready to fight for a party! music for the russian invasion just as we like it!

after releasing on labels like tuning spork ( as bunkers with signor andreoni), contexterrior ( with andrea ferlin) and on popof s form, alessio mereu returns with dissolved in the black on his new label amam . it includes 4 techno-techhouse tracks expressing a softer style in respect to his preceding productions without abandoning the techno groove enriched with vocals, real percussion and dark obscure synths. on top of it the release is made more precious by the remix of jay haze that presents a dark, slow, deep and intense track.

nice price deal !!! a deep melodic bass line and mesmerizing arp lines adding weight to a otherwise straight beat, resulting in a fine example of what nick chacona sounds of today. watch out!

for the second time, kadebostan opens up an oriental sound bazaar on fenou with the souk e.p. and feeds us with musical delicacies. on side a he charms us with a virtuous sounding clarinet like a snake charmer decoys the hissing reptiles from a basket. our hips are swaying softly and smoothly under this hypnosis to a beating rhythm and repeating bass lines. on the flip he reveals the veil and involves us in a world of foreign sounding magical music. it is a miraculous mixture of charming vocals, gently, but firmly beginning rhythm and oriental guitar and piano scales. what remains is a moment of magic.

two and a half years after their debut lp, 23 seconds, dazzled critics and lit up dance floors worldwide, cobblestone jazz are back with a powerhouse new album that captures their live-in-the-studio energy like never before. a mixture of heady, jazz-inspired house grooves and below-the-belt analog funk, it raises the bar for electronic dance music in 2010.titled the modern deep left quartet, the record marks an important addition to the cobblestone jazz lineup, as the trio of mathew jonson, danuel tate and tyger dhula brings aboard colin de la plante (aka the mole). de la plante is no newcomer to the cobblestone crew: the four musicians have been playing together for nearly 15 years, since their first performances in small-town victoria, british columbia, and theyve all shared the stage as the modern deep left quartet

like a live transmission from the party you wish you were at, the golden handshake ep is the first offspring of proud parents (and clubbing royalty) numbers. the labels debut release showcases the considerable talents of low limit and lando kal (aka lazer sword), who should need no introduction to the discerning beat freak having roundly assaulted the ears of audiences worldwide with their unbelievable live show and hundred thousand reaching mix tapes.

german doomcore artist moleculez delivers his second release on the mighty symp.tom imprint! very raw stuff on this new release, including new and pounding collaborations with mental wreckage and the relic. with 5 dark and twisted tracks full of ear piercing sounds and massive layers of distortion moleculez unleashes a very diverse and high quality 12. another fine addition to the symp.tom catalogue.

on this record we have the honour to present:
andres garcia with >lembran<
andres garcia produces electronic music. &#8232,,,everywhere from minimal techno to the open waters of cinematic sound.&#8232,,, everything for the dancefloor, the theatrical stage, the silver screen and your listening pleasure.
dandy jack & the metronome allstars with >39 steps<:
dandy jack is maybe better known for his incredible energetic live appearances, shaking crowds all around and turning audiences into a non-stop atmospherical body wave. together with other artists (like for the memorable narod niki 1st public concert at mutek 2003) or alone, in small clubs or bigger events, the german-latin effect has nothing to proove, just power to give.

in the last 12 months thomas golds profile has soared skywards, his remix credits reads like a who is who of the global dance scene, erick morillo, robbie rivera, paul van dyk, roger sanchez, alex gaudino have all had a bit of gold sprinkled on them. not forgetting his award nomination for his mix of delirium >silence< and his recent mixes of pete

after a short hiatus, kelvin andrews world famous stable for his own and likeminded producers (like mark e & mark seven) secret dj weapons is back to the fray with a truly timeless compilation of balearic belters. lovingly compiled by kelvin himself and the infamous balearic mike (creator of the sublime cosmic alphonsus series and head of the fascinating rhythms record label - remember last years >reckoner< rework which sold out in 2 days ?) this is a very limited sampler 12 from the cd compilation (which will be available very soon exclusively to all ears - more info to follow) all the tracks are licensed and 100% legit, so the guys wanted to release a 12 inch treat featuring two of the more floor friendly numbers, knocked into seriously good shape by danny mekanik (one half of soul mekanik with older brother kelvin!). already a hot topic on the blogs and likely to be the cd soundtrack of the summer, this is a superbly curated collection, and a killer sampler.

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.

newtonns history started in 1985. in a retrospective, his musical career looks like a frantic puzzle. there were influences of pop, rock and electronic sounds from the early seventies, so in fact, newtonns - better known by his alter ego cut a kaos - reputation and success could be traced back to all these music styles. since 2 years alexander friedlhuemer (so his registered name) has straighten and oriented his label bacteria records towards house and tech-house. the current and most important, new release >the cursor< is remixed by lars eckmann. catchy tech-house tunes with a flawor of real techno influences. as a result, 2010 is newtonns year and his spectacular productions will break all limits!

1982 disco classic!

fantastic new remixes of the avatar main theme i see you and keri hilsons top hit i like!
