thomas gandeys return is warmly welcomed by dance-floors worldwide. the artist formally known as cagedbaby has consistently made tough, deep, cutting techno and house based tracks, and his latest offering >the piano track< is no different. mr.gandey upped sticks to berlin last year and one can really hear the city that holds so much weight in the history of dance music, in this his latest production. like ronseal, the piano track does exactly what it says on the tin. its a track laced with piano hooks. its stylish, sophisticated and genre-busting, thomas gandey really has gone for the ultimate goose-bump rush! radio slave and thomas gandey have long admired each others work. they have a history of producing and djing together and like tom, matt (radio slave) also comes from brighton and now lives in berlin. after hearing the piano track he dived straight in to the remixing it. in actual fact radio slave remixed the track in a different key and tom re-played the piano making for a really special radio slave re-work

it is one of our traditions to release remixes of our favourite artists and so we are happy to feature top remix artists for this minilogue remix release on traum.
the >drop the mask of self protection< remix of dominik eulberg is a bit of an adventure! unlike his >diorama< album and maybe because of its elaborate musical challenge, he has taken a time-out to create a serious club format in the true eulberg style witnessed on trapez in the past. so what does that really mean for this track? well this remix kicks off a bit of an relaxed percussive and deep house groove and undergoes in its course quite an explosive transformation! with a lot of skill and finesse mr eulberg pulls the strings with accuracy and makes the transfer of what unfolds to be a heavy big pounding techno rocker! thumbs up this is superb and eulberg at his best.

nice price deal !!! hdr kicks off the new year with a bang. this time we see marcos cabral’s fledgling nyc label induct some new talent alongside himself.

while his maceo plex alias is on the lips of almost everyone in dance music, eric estornel returns to his oldest moniker, maetrik, to deliver a three track techno ep for the truesoul imprint

it seems that dance music is an everlasting quest for new and fresh hybrids. dimitri batsis aka dans mon salon, introduces a work which will be loved by music enthusiasts and djs alike on the upcoming amplify label. his attempt to renovate all rave feelings of the early 90s is obvious while keeping it fresh and contemporary.

after releasing with sonar kollektiv and defected, michael beim aka skwerl became a gigolo in 2009 and now releases his third 12 inch for us, the you need to dance ep, with some of his most inventive work to date.

rivet puts a lot of effort in his sounds and his production. this is not another copycat. first out on the ep >amid the roar< is >metrist<, a sexy march that blends the stiffness 80-ties disco with techno from the future. on the b-side marcel fengler takes his turn on >metrist<. he keeps the string of the original, chops up the bass and creates a dancefloor monster with a big anthem alert stamp on it. amid the roar ends with what might be the strongest track on the ep. this ep will make us dance, of course, as always, with a bit of a kontra-musik twist.

apartment records 2nd release comes from irelands analogue-obsessed soul assassins, tr one. on the a-side, drum dance is a fusion of beatdown with a minimal techno aesthetic, creating a hypnotic journey through the duos machines. the b-side serves up 2 alternative takes. john heckles debut remix takes a heaving, lo-fi approach to the originals drums while layering it with wistful synths, before juju & jordashs dub version closes off proceedings in their inimitable style, expansive yet claustrophobic at the one time.

after the old-school inspired >forward to the past< that saw a poker flat re-visit some seriously jacking zones, we now focus directly on acid house and the genres beloved roland tb-303. that innocent little box created some of the most freaky basslines in dance music history, and were here to celebrate its unique tone and the legacy of acid. producers featured include motorcitysoul, vincenzo and tyson balard, sven tasnadi and juno 6, sasse, steve bug, kink and neville watson, snuff crew, tinman, glimpse & will saul.

>let life dance thru you< reveals itself as a safari of live played percussion, instruments and sounds. the duo create here a biotope of sounds that interact with each other... like a live band would do… at times almost arabesque sounding this track is full of mysterious soundscapes... jazzy played instruments... flutes running havoc... it could as well be: a spiritual voodoo session from the 70ies!
the whole sound selection if it would be described in colors, would be dark brown, black... with bits of gold. no shiny lights or illuminated plains. almost 11.00 minutes long this track is a real journey and certainly for the people who know rather than feeding djs.

this ep represents a landmark on nice cats history as fiat 600 cuts a deep slice of musical history on chileans underground scene, since >the pinochet boys< , back in the 80s where miguel conejeros started his unique approach to groove making as the brains of this legendary art-punk band ( think glaxo babies meets los angeles negros) and throughout his oblique jungle-drums and bass excursion in the nineties this national treasure always knows how to deliver the unexpected and leave a sweet aftertaste. here are six offbeat dance gems , including his reworking of villalobos-los updatess >miss u so<. we at nice cat try to keep it cool but , if truth needs to be told , we are gleaming with pride. nice cat 05 . all tracks and music by miguel conejeros except a3 ( ricardo villalobos / jorge gonzález) and b2 ( carlos vergara-miguel conejeros). artwork by yvonne blanco

just like different fishes can be found in different grounds, also the acoustic tales of the micronaut take place in different regions of the emotional landscape: sometimes warm, sometimes fresh – sometimes calm and stagnant, sometimes lively and floating. and just like all the fishes are connected by the water surrounding them, also this album has its connecting element: a very individual and independent groove. this groove comes with a lot of surprises. for instance, when a guitar chord from the acoustic band atmosphere of gruen- dling suddenly gets tangled up in a loop and introduces an unexpected but coherent change into the direction of broken, electronic beats. or when the emotional world music elements of schleie mix up with exciting halfstep rhythms. sophi- sticated arrangements, unusual instrumentations and intense emotions- these are the main attributes of friedfisch . though the experimental character of this work does not really aim the dance floor, it still keeps connected to this place: two sensitive remixes by mollono.bass represent the upbeat for an entire series, being exclusively released on vinyl.

the singular threads of the musical fabric that is barrio weedwagon are too numerous and long to trace the beginnings. however, the story does indeed have a start. the spark first took flame on a dance floor deep in the heliopolis favela of são paulo, brazil. after this initial shared out of body experience about 2012, barrio weedwagon can best summed up in these words: emerging from a black hole in the center of the milky way galaxy, the beings who would claim the name barrio weedwagon were awakened. the steady stream of organized radio frequencies from earth became a soothing and yet tantalizing lullaby for our heroes.

>halfway between the gutter and the stars< is fatboy slims third album, and it is also this prolific dance producers third release on music on vinyl. here, norman cook continues the work he started on >better living through chemistry< (movlp111) and >you ve come a long way, baby< (movlp099), bringing in collaborators macy gray, bootsy collins and roger sanchez, yet he steps away from the capricious commercial world of the pop charts in favor of the steady beat of the dance floor.
