fusing some weird italo-ish vibes together with some unmistakenly drexciyan influences this is a pretty unique release on rh! concepts often bring interesting results and this is no exception.. i think its going to be a real >love it or hate it< record. yurotrago take the track somewhere completely different, stretching it out on a different kind of vision. awesome deep and moody action for the floor. the packaging is awesome for this one

sometime chicken lips collaborator and full time disco don stevie kotey keeps the momentum going on his longstanding and ever consistent imprint by going slightly off piste with the latest bearfunk 12inch. for my friends is the work of lusty zanzibar aka alex cordiner, cabaret voltaire fan and former holistic artist, and we re struggling to describe it effectively to be honest. its a simple concoction of fluttery synth riffs and fat bottom end, but has the sort of quirky melody that you just dont expect to hear in a noo disco record, or a house record for that matter. it is, however totally infectious, and destined to be one of bearfunks biggest of the year we reckon. solid mixes come from kotey and lusty himself, and all are dominated by the riff, as will your brain be after listening to this package a few times. beginning of the night, end of the night, all night, all aboard the wonky disco train to zanzibar

a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. were gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainlly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut. just the way we like it...for int005 we bring you a slow house chugger in the form of break the barriers, done by malaysian born and berlin based frankie flowerz. i have to say, its not by choice i decided to put this track out but a calling... upon hearing this track in frankies myspace player i knew i had to put this out over 12 inches in full scope... i spent some time trying to come up with the perfect match for remix duties and i think weve succeeded with the choice of man of the moment(and soon to be legendary)john daly of galway who turns in a slightly faster, darker and a bit dubbier affair.

hardcore 4 track bizz!! some crazy cool sampling going on here!!

1983 classic re mastered and re released in 2003!!

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

forward going techno trax incl devilfish remix...

classic stones-album, digital remastered!

this is the second part in the three-part series >join the resistance< by 22 year old tim toh and another proof for this young producers huge talent and unique character! >three< on the a-side is a masterpiece of discoesque harmonies going nuts, a lovely string topping and a sparse but effective rhythm…the sweetest piece of house music we ever released?!!…most definetly! >four< on the flip is a funked up track covered in charming synthlines that almost sound like natural ochestral instrumentation, with their woodwind-like charakters. great tension in the arrangement again! >five< is the most likely house track on this 12inch, deep chords top a heavy shufflin rhythm… timeless matter! thanks for purchasing a real copy

a fresh addition to the moodmusic roster but a longtime veteran in the house-scene, alexander maier aka dj all*star from stuttgart is well known from his earlier releases on buzzin fly, exun and criminal records. he began his career playing underground techno in south of germany but over the years became more and more influenced by detroit and chicago house. you can hear these influences on sahara in both the rain and river version. deep and reduced grooves with enough soul and atmosphere, yet fully functional for the floor, sahara rain kicks in with a heavy bass sequence building a perfect platform to be followed by the synththeme which hit s the peak hour perfectly. i see some hands going up here already… sahara river starts more housey, building a classy, low-slung huge groove with perculating synths and almost tribal feel to the drums. the modulating synths lifts the track to new heights with a break of superbly layered twisted pads before the drums kick back in in full effect. as this would not be enough we asked our thrusted chicago connection and alexs buddy, mazi aka audio soul project to remix sahara rain. if you consider people who s been in the biz for some time mazi is one of the warriors of the sound, never choosing the easy way but thrustfully following his true way of house music. and house it is, classic but cleverly updated to 2008 with a twist of so-cal thrown in for good measure. bouncey and jacking is the words which comes into mind when hearing this, excellent work and a another bomb for the hot months to come

main groove and the deep going atmosphere! awesome release!!! with two deep and modern-groove tracks, jenn appears the first time on her own, in 2007 founded, label popnorama. since 2005 she produces a lot of minimal teknoid tracks and remixes, which are always a bit dark and reflective. her style is always regognizeable. considering to her releases on karateklub recordings, she introduces now on popnorama, her soft and gently side of music productions. feel the main groove and the deep going atmosphere she creates!

continuing the spectacle that is the poker flat tournament series, we present two more surefire lessons in dancefloor mechanics. after his last storming >zeitgeist e.p< for poker flat, londons very own dark knight raudive aka oliver ho has crafted a powerfully hypnotic club tool that truly exists within its own world of unique and unmistakable sound. carefully executed beats roll forward as an astounding landscape of colourful vocal suggestions and emotions swirl and evolve. its a heady, uncompromising track that certainly stands out as its own, but could complement many different dj situations, from driving peak time sets, to free-flowing after-hours sessions… heading up the opposition for looks set to be a fine tournament indeed, minimise head-honcho and continual key-player donnacha costello brings things down and dirty with his unforgiving and foreboding >i must be going<. a catchy proto-acidic bass line snakes a winding path through a dense atmosphere of late-night paranoia. perfectly crafted beats push the energy along with a casual swagger, whilst the pleasingly tripped out vocal undertones leave the imagination to run wild

the first release on new glasgow label seinan music will be from rising star sei a. this boys stock has been rising fast with releases on french house stables such as missive, silver network and imprime {he may or may not also be responsible for a certain awesome re-edit of an oxford band containing word radio}... fans of his work include miss kitten, laurent garnier, ben watt and a host of many others. meth is another slice of his trademark techy but melodic sound. with haunting vocals and a solid hook, this is due to rock floors from glasgow to guatemala, tech style. on the flip, man of the moment milton jackson takes things a little deeper and darker with a solid mix that will appeal to fans of his work on labels such as freerange, winding road and tsuba. with a musical agenda that sticks to its guns but is not afraid to take a chance is the frame of mind going forward for seinan music. the label has some exiting plans for the future including remixes from another fcomm stalwart, llorca and more releases from sei a.

lars klein returns to triple vision after a short break and returns with a vengeance! an eye for an eye is a fierce heavy bass pounding track with a wobbling feel and pulsating bleebs. excellent produced a side in his new invented style. the flip is slightly harder driven by an uplifting bassline and a furious breakdown, the bass kicks in nicely after and leaves the crowd going mental. the second track on the flip is a rework of the a1 track by stephane signore (insane life) and xentrix. these guys made the track rough and trancy in the true signore style techno. all in all a great release from germanys techno hero!

is there more to life than house music? for the swedish dj/producer mikael nordgren: probably not. since 2004, he has been steadily churning out some of the best future house tunes from his studio located in stockholm. his productions have been released under many aliases including dmalicious, 12th floor and for get physical under the mighty moniker of tiger stripes. the blacker the music, the sweater the sound. a potential anecdote that fittingly could have inspired mikael when he composed the warm and supple portion of detroit fueled funk that is, blackroom entertainment. yet another presentation of his programming prowess and ability to mold and mend melodies into a sophisticated groove. especially utilizing his signature catchy drums to get the vibe going, then introducing a melodic synth stab before the track takes you away with complex variations of rhythmic lead sounds. abacus may remind listeners of his stellar mad at me ep released last fall on get physical - albeit reformed with a more analog approach. springing tones get the groove rolling before it is taken over by a cabal of sci-fi sounds, at which point a thick, modulated analog bass sound ups the overall energy. the lack of audio imagery is little if none, as the sounds invoke so many moods, feelings and sensations that only a seasoned dj and knowledgeable producer could fabricate such a convincing theme. blackroom entertainment ep again showcases mikaels ability as a formidable contributor to house music

it hasnt been long time ago since the last coup made by clark and schatz hit the streets but highgrades head-honcho tom clark and the true berlin talent markus schatz allready go for the next round. the original version of >hot choc< makes the start - playfully swinging, the track developes itself into a masterpiece of an easy going groove without being half bad. the french dj and producer tom pooks - well known for this productions on ovum, kompakt and other wellsounding imprints gives >hot choc< a whole lot of jacking energy to take along. he sets the percussive elements free - and rightly so! punch meets hypnotic deepness - perfect! with the hot choc re-edit on the flipside by markus schatz he eventually letting the cat out of the bag. without any detours and in best daniel bell-like mannour he jump into a real inferno made of funky bleeps and weird sounds. delivering with this one more than just another highlight on this release - because last but least it’s the best evidence, you gotta reckon with these two!
