ealier support by chloe, giles smith and karotte. maik loewen was already infected by musiccalitis in early years. and there was also his increasing fascination for beats. it did not take long till he started playing the drums and synthesizer. with the tb 303 being one of his first instruments he immediately became addicted to electronic sounds and became quite skilled in using these new devices in his own productions. during his apprenticeship at the recording studios he produced his first tracks. at the same time he started his collaboration with oliver hacke and gabriel ananda. they supported him to get his first record deals. following his first releases on tonsport >arnika ep<, karmarouge >mezcal ep< and trapez >one year one month< and remix projects for walter dahn und jorge gebauhr, his latest ep on poikerflat >even if you sleep<, maik finally appears on karmarouge: the >backcountry camping ep<. his deep understanding for functional sounds and extremly pumping beats, combined with the right mixture of genius and insanity, enables mike to playfully produce upfront club-compatible music. >i dont like musical restrictions, what counts is the feeling of the moment, expressed in acoustic waves<. a perfect mixture that metamorphoses the dancefloor into a seething gladiators arena and wich become one of this genius minimal techno anthems who seems to fly higher more and more. not to forget the huge portion of groovy funkiness. the three tracks on the ep nicely explore different nuances of maik loewens present sound

a two track 12 inch of electrifying, catchy and simply deep underground music. side a, espac ( the shorter name variation of espace), is a funky, moody and cosmic sound sculpture that fits well into the minimal tech category. this track contains a bass-laden brass morphing sound which converts to a more trumpet horn like sound. the loudness and resonance of this lead sound will definitely grab the attention of the audience. strings from outer space, claps with a live funky feeling, shuffled hats and a radioactive background noise >wicked!!! side b, f.e.b., contains more morphing and electrifying hi pass resonance chord sounds. these sounds are combined with a warm stringful waving wall sound, a heartbeat like pulsating bass line and a simple offbeat playing open hi-hats. this track is relaxing but exciting at the same time which is sure to pack the dance floor!!

supported by 2000 and one, anja schneider, jesse rose, loco dice, shlomi aber, trickski, tobi neumann, to name a few.. once again theres a real nod to the old school here in a track inspired by arthur russell. rich, warm analogue pads and subtle fx flashes from the space echo build an enchanting groove. the intensity gradually develops with sounds slowly evolving, lending a deep hypnotic feeling to proceedings, until the chord progression opens out and you cant help but smile. a genuine end of night anthem and when dixon does his own edit you know your onto something special... version: double for your money, with an extra version of the original that doesnt open out into the full stabs and maintains a deeper groove. martin landsky remix: with a tight, tribal tom pattern and straight ahead groove martin landsky achieves a darker more spaced out feeling with his remix. he pushes the pads to a dubbed out climax without fully opening out the progression and this fully hits the spot. martin landsky has been making waves as a dj and producer since the mid-nineties and is one of the key producers at steve bugs excellent poker flat recordings and running his own intim records.. hes compiled many mix cds for labels such as poker flat, systematic and the partysan compilation series. his debut album was >in between< for pokerflat and since then hes remixed the great & good as well as producing several stunning releases and jetting about with his box of records

ltd upfront promos , boddhi satva and abel tabu have fused their interpretation of african music by returning to their roots, providing us with one of the most interesting projects this year on atal music. they asked the talented congolese guitarist, danny mpiana, to bless their production with a true central african musical feeling ensuring they capture and soothe both heart and soul of dancers and listeners worldwide. the name boddhi satva has become for the most part, synonymous with deep, afro ancestral beats, melodies and rhythms. all these elements and more are present in his past productions, so its only fitting that he capitalize on this trend and join forces with his friend abel tabu to bring forth the best of both musical backgrounds. the end result is moina ya mokili, a formidable collaboration that confirms their true love and passion for deep soulful music. furthermore, this project is endorsed and enriched with support from abicah soul. his remix incorporates scintillating afro latin smooth, yet powerful beats and the signature abicah soul touch of deepness.
