part 2 of the simple, maybe release reveals the dark side of the brothers schwarz. yeah ought to be taken literally. batten down the hatches and turn up the volume, here comes a true masterpiece. naturally, tiefschwarz have saved the banger until last. there are not many tracks out there, which make you get up and dance after two bars already. the basis of yeah is a perfectly orchestrated drum beat. a steady bass drum, rolling toms, a crisp snare, all together powered by a low-pitch synth sample in the background. a sound, that is as offensive and sentimental as possible at the same time. add a well-filtered choir sample on top and you get a deepness and amplitude that can only be mastered by the finest soundsystems on the planet. like looking through a burning glass, the break shows what tiefschwarz are really all about with this track: gradually, all sound elements are shut down, overlayed by white noise that comes with goosebumps guarantee. this spring, youll better be on the dancefloor, when the drums set in again! deininger on the b-side is an almost gloomy track, driven by a dark deep-house bass line. once again, tiefschwarz play with a wide range of elements: an off-beat synth wind section, dry tinker bells and sliced vocals, well-orchestrated by a fine mix. all together this creates the perfect atmosphere for a monday morning sun rise. exhausted, dried-out, longing for your bed and a glass of water, yet at the same time not wanting to go home. great music got soul, the perfect balance, that keeps the heart pumping and the body dancing. deininger is about this certain temper, the groove, that makes you carry on.

simone tavazzi did it again! its still by him the new analytic trail release, the number 23 for the precision of markantonios label. this time the young milanese producer dedicated to a style with dark aftertaste, but rich in intensity and rare sounds. the track poltergeist, which you can hear the exceptional remix by english perc from perc trax, drumcode, kompakt, as it is an entity that will dominate clubs, your car and your minds, we will be catapulted into a long journey! and yet the track way out - there is no way out, you can just dance and make people move all night long.

here we go again with some crazy party music - directly from the acid-drenched mind of the most fidgety of them all, your favorite bulgarian! after some great releases on such labels as noodles recordings, potty mouth recordings and second session, the bulgarian is back - this time showcasing his minimal side for complot. first off we have the anti-bling anthem check to check millionaire - a surprisingly clever mix of catchy lyrics and an unstoppable groove, the right combination to get faces smiling and booties shaking. dotcoza is the second anthem on this ep, and there s no denying that it s metallic stabs and wild acidic bass line will make you move, while the whistles will tickle your ears for added pleasure. for those looking to hear the bulgarian s darker side, home tonight will not disappoint with it s choppy percussion and inebriated bass line - a perfect compliment for those mushrooms you ate earlier. finally, with its plethora of interesting sound bytes, something red will make you pop like bubble gum and lock like a solid-steel safe. there s no question that the bulgarian s incisive sounds, illegal bass lines and crispy beats will make all of us sweat.. like the last time you got chased by a pit bull..

the emphasis with this track is simple... a hard-hitting arrangement and solid production techniques. after the cinematic intro and the sledgehammer bass-lined drop hustler has been destroying dance floors all over. this tune has a pounding bass-line morphing its way throughout, twisting up filters and distortion, with the rhythm of the phrases changing almost at random

already supported by johnny d., someone else, laurent garnier, jennifer cardini, florian meindl, david keno.. erich lesovsky is the newest addition to stil vor talents exciting artist roster. here comes someone who is totally fascinated and absorbed by technology, someone who only performs as a live act in the clubs and - in the time of digital machinery - still works on constructing his own devices to make music with. after singles for wba and keno records, it is now the time for his first release on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent imprint and mr. lesovsky is very happy to be part of the family. so are we, of course! not only, but also because his first ep is a killer display of musical wizardry. it stars off with >bell a donna<, a minimal funk-laden piece of music that is mainly based on some crisp beats, many warm effects and sounds and a melody so simple, yet so encapsulating to capture the heart of every dancer in the club. this is oldskool minimal funk at its best! next up is >93 percent<, a title that might be misleading at first, because this track sounds more like 150 percent really. a great loop made of fidgety techno hi-hats and some wonderful warm analogue sounds - this could well be termed a new form of fidget techno. last up is >riot beatz<, an experimental display of minimal sound design, yet still very danceable. lots of crystal bashing beats, a pumping bass and many little effects - this will definitely be one for the dancefloor in the morning hours. not only does e. lesovsky seem a master of sound, his expertise seems to cover the perfect creation of warm, yet basic tech anthems and his influences seem to come from all sorts of musical directions, from hip-hop to funk to house back to techno. it is the easiness with which he delivers his music that makes his sound designs so special!

after 2 successful eps and massive remixes for metronomy and whomadewho its now time for more discodeine vinyl action. this third ep called tom select is definitly dedicated to the dancefloor... frankly, the track speaks for itself but if you need some influences lets say smith n hack/lfo/frankie bones... but you should know by now that discodeine is only sounding like discodeine right? the remixes are provided by some people that we admire for a long time: la horse (danton eeprom & ivan smagghe) and joakim. la horse provided a trippy remix, with live drums, electronic wizzardy and insanely beautiful pop harmonies while joakim is more on that nasty techno vibe we all love.

supported by: umek, lars sommerfeld, da fresh, oscar, paul hazendonk, terje bakke, blood & tears, ondrej, electric rescue, allez-allez etc… spada who made his debut on maripoza imprint hits back with a bomb. evinrude is the realy strong follow up after the burning arcobaleni track. jitterbug is tough and gets the dancefloor mood with the deep and loopy melody on the point. davis & mays lilllypop edit of jitterbug takes it back to the melodies and fills the night with colours..

after several months of underground pressure the orbital classic kinetic by golden girls (paul & phil hartnoll along with mike hazell) is finally getting a full release. one of the most ecstatic rave stabs ever is at the heart of this record and has now been reworked for 09 dancefloors by floorplay music - the label run by hot brighton production duo prok & fitch. the story began a year ago with prok & fitchs golden shower remix. instead of going down the bootleg or cover route they paid their dues and licensed the original track for their new label floorplay and set about getting some hot names to remix it. top of the pile is atfc who takes the original and gives it a tough house makeover. this man has been responsible for a few classic records of his own over the years so this combination is unstoppable. with the original orbital mix included this is an all time classic tastefully revisited.

after a recent remix for andrea parker and work with the palette all-stars, justin maxwell returns after a 2 year solo absence bringing us two monster tracks that make up for lost time.

part 1 of the new double-release from tiefschwarz aims at the heart of house music: soul. “on&on” is a first-class arranged club track. starting off with a wonderful mellow theme, that is adumbrated by the bass line in an one-and-a-half minute long exposition. the track ups the tempo with an additional hi-hat resolving into a shuffle beat. in double time, we move on towards the first break. here an edgy, minor key-chord sequence is introduced, making it obvious for everyone, that this track is gonna take off. eventually the keys function as a counterpoint to the classic bass line. a four-to-the-floor “on&on” vocal sample takes over after the break, adding another percussive aspect. as the track goes on a mulitiplicity of side elements sets in - no room for tediousness! in the end the “on&on” vocals resolve into “it’s so simple… . who knows, but this could be a broad hint to all the tech-house academics out there. no matter what, this grande finale raises a smile from every last sweaty soul on the dancefloor. with “best inn” on the b-side tiefschwarz create a dance classic, dressed in 2009 fashion. reminiscent of long gone nu-groove times, a traditional house beat - including a tiny off-beat tinker bell - blasts out of the speakers. a slured synth-organ provides the track with that certain edgyness. here, the brothers keep it laid-back yet exciting at the same time. this piece goes on and on and on - and you yourself run alongside, not wanting to pause. but watch out! at the latest in the second break, tiefschwarz put nostalgia to the test via some shockingly muffled metal drums. one of these moments, where you wish yourself back into the middle of an eight-hour deep-house set in 1992. the train departs. one thrillingly beautiful landscape after another runs by, until the warm sun strokes of the south suddenly rouse you out of slumber. arrived

already supported by the bloody bleetroots, will bailey, drop the lime, congorock ... hell yeah starts a new re-issue/remix series called confuzed90s. after the huge critical success of confuzed disco (a retrospective of cult label italian records), label a&r marco peedoo gallerani keep on fumbling into obscure & cheesy italian label catalogues in order to deliver the best re-issues and remixes.: expect weird spaghetti house, nu-disco re-interpretations, nu rave modified anthems and all in between. first chapter is all about sicilian heroes blatta & inesha who tweak and knob 90s techno icon ramirez music as they never have done before: killer freshness with humour. if you remember ramirez, the music, the mad shows you know that all his big tracks and gimmicks are here and those new remixes are set to become a steady 12inch of your record bag for the next months to come. very early support comes from the bloody beetroots, lee mortimer, will bailey ...

a new beginning is always an euphoric and scary step towards the unknown. the euphoria comes right after the original idea, when first signs of feasibility are shown. then comes reality. i think that nobody is able to eradicate reality (or what a common society sees of it) out of his mind, though art allows us to escape temporally this fiction. its not an easy task to achieve and artists hold in their hands, intellects, souls and guts a great responsibility. terpsichór? will be a support that transfers this responsibility to others: the artists, the public, the crowd, the souls, the dancefloor

second album after the multi-million-seller >come away with me<, full of melancholy and emotions in blues, jazz and folk.

after several months of hard video- and filmwork, and several awards, french-vietnamese cutie tk.kim aka. pop-3 will finally release some new tracks, on vinyl and online, and by the way, she promised to release more stuff in 2009! so, the new release, chicks and cuts, with 8 tracks online and a 4-track vinyl 12, is definitely dancy, clubby and loud. definitely in the tradition of pop-3s former releases, that never perfectly fitted a precise music category and prove that tk.kim still refuses to be house, tec or minimal. shes all of them or none of them. and what does chicks and cuts sound like, then? boomy squeaking analog sequences combined with delicious samples of her sweet voice will delight the dancefloor, lo-fi audio splinters coming out of old analog drummachines play something like very reduced melodies, and well shaped bassdrums and deep synths will delight your tummies. the very minimal lyrics are in french, as usual. and, goodie: sonja moonear and akiko kiyama contribute with amazing remixes to this fine girls-only oeuvre, rhythmical and minimal but still very harmonious the one by akiko, deep and mysterious the one by sonja. and by the way, the cover is really sweet, people say.

united by a simple question as what is electro?, the two young english producers of joe and will ask? have spent the last two years creating dirty, cutting edge productions and taking over the london club scene. with an eye firmly on the dance floor, but also with effortless musicality not normally associated with techno, theyve won over fans from the band / indie scene, as well as diehard clubbers. they inject tonality and musical flow into everything they touch, all under the banner of techno or electro or whatever you would like to call it, and have been compared to justice, soulwax, dim and popof. after several eps, acclaimed by the likes of brodinski kris menace, vicarious bliss, casper c and autokratz to name a few, here comes their first release on kitsuné. claymore, delivers a tensed and breathtaking swoop with obsessive rhythms, while take me away with its strong rock energy and vocal hook, will set all the dancefloors on fire

first vinyl pressing of twin infinitives since the original vinyl issue in 1990. after moving to san francisco, royal trux released the highly experimental double album twin infinitives. this album remains an extreme work on the periphery of rock music, worthy of being compared to lou reeds metal machine music and suicides debut album. at only four subdivided tracks, none of which clock in under 15 minutes, the record has plenty of time to weave a mesmerizing web that is sometimes menacing, sometimes startling. for all of its high brow allusions, twin infinitives nearly reeks of vice, a dark, sordid feel pervades the record, and the listener can almost picture the band recording in a filthy apartment in the middle of the night in various states of intoxication and debauchery.

played by: ricardo villalobos, sebo k, brothers vibe, loco dice, dj deep (deeply rooted), karotte, nick curly and more... !!after the last fantastic release on fumalab we now make a stop in southern america – to be precise: in santiago de chile. there is a lot going on in chiles electronic music scene and dj felipe valenzuela is one of the agitators of the night in santiago de chile with one foot in latin america and the other one in the old continent. he is a fresh, young, and talented producer. we will hear a lot from him in the future … he took piano lessons for a long time and his first producer steps started in 1995. felipe is a dj since 2002. he organized small underground parties in santiago de chile shortly after he travelled to europe, especially spain. from this experience, great alliances have been created with bookings and excellent agencies. >alicante< is a spherical and hypnotic track which takes you on a journey through chile. there are spoken words in combination with a dreamy chorus and typical sounds from latin america. alicante evolved from a team work as rockit-f. this is felipe valenzuela together with fernanda diaz. >dive< is a percussive, mental track with sound snatches ranked together with a very special feeling. its a long trip – call it a lesson into rhythm and drums. the music kicks you discreet the whole time. >dive< emerged from collaborating with felipe venegas. hes also known from releases on immigrant
