hot creations call upon viva boss steve lawler for their next release, rounding 2014 off with a bang - an amazing year for the leading label. with such a widespread knowledge of music and the industry, here lawler gives us a musical education. house record is a dose of old school 80s house injected with a modern twist with city nights following suit on the b-side. there is no doubt both tracks will dominate the dance floor at peak time, capturing each heart with their infectious bouncing bass-lines, pacey percussions and all round feel good energy. this is proving to be a huge release for hot creations and steve, featuring heavily in jamie, richy, lee and steves sets… this is seriously hot!

the rugged, noirish soul of dave ajus third album black frames is still lingering in our minds months after it dropped, and as you well know by now we at circus company can never get enough of the san francisco mans honey-coated voice. as such, we once again reached out to dear friends and like-minded souls within the house and techno community to deliver three reinterpretations of the mans distinctive sound for a fresh dancefloor perspective.

known as pantaleon perez prado, was the younger brother of the famous king of mambo. pantaleon, who came to europe in the 1950s, recorded several albums with unifunk. a powerful big funk band sound featuring: tullio de piscopo, mario rusca, giancarlo barigozzi, pino prestipino and others. escandalo!, as perez prado states in the brief sleeve note, is named after a new rhythm created by himself. *a rhythm you can dance to in freedom, without specific steps*. in spite of this naive launching, the opening track chicago banana is a declaration of intent, with its sly stone-esque groove. 9 out of 12 tracks are originals credited to composers of the unifunk circle, but the track list is careful to preserve prados well-established latin appeal, by including three standards such as brazil, el manisero and tequila.
the deluxe vinyl edition comes in gatefold sleeve with a cd-copy of the album included.

• german duo dualit join the eartoground camp
• strong four tracker with printed sleeve

london label eartoground s final release of 2014 raw material sees another new act joining the label as they welcome on board dualit . this german duo are otherwise known as oliver rosemann from leipzig and mascon from frelberg. recently they have released on such prolific labels as clr, earwiggle and fifth wall records. this release features six tracks, being four originals backed by two centralised locked grooves with full front and back artwork on the sleeve. audio selected for this release gives a good over all presentation of dualit s varied, deep and raw dynamic range of techno.

key players of the scandinavian electro scene have worked together to deliver a snapshot of their unique sound for bt04. luke eargoggle, kan3da, obergman and rutherford deliver everything from icy electro to downtempo, mournful idm leanings. between them, the artists have released on highly respected labels such as bunker, abstract forms, ac and transient force. luke eargoggle also runs the important and highly respected label stilleben. all copies come with an individual screenprinting sleeve and include digital download.

at a time when techno music was new and mainly innocent, a spirit was born that gave rise to a cheerful culture of independent minded people, who were then reclaiming empty spaces for the sole purpose of pure pleasure. through these places a unique vibe was created, embracing people with the lush abundant luxury of letting them feel at home, welcome and a part of a family. heideglühen is such a place and arguably host to the hottest dance floor berlin has got to offer.

originally a weekly broadcast radio show on the dutch-based xt3 radio, reclaim your city (ryc) gained its reputation as a highly acclaimed podcast series with its headquarters in berlin. since 2012, eighty-eight podcasts have been published from some of the biggest names in contemporary techno, jeroen search, adriana lopez, fabrizio lapiana, exium and jonas kopp to name a few. with such success through its podcast series, ryc has decided to take matters to the next level and establish a label using its powerful concept as a platform.

for its first release ryc has decided to showcase berlin and paris, two cities historically known for placing great significance and expertise on the genre. berlin, consistently home to a resonating techno culture, competes here with paris who has been on the rise from beneath its bourgeois history. for this special first release zadig and antigone have been chosen to represent parisian techno, as blind observatory and subjected will in full support of berlin.

by now dutch label shipwrec has well and truly established itself as a go-to outlet for excellent modern electro. as such, it makes perfect sense that their next release - a special one-sided pressing - is from revered electro specialist anthony rother.

reminiscent of a time where we were releasing 4-tracks sampler every month (remember the secret gems from the vault) it is naturally that we thought about a various artists sampler in order to introduce the new wild bunch. julian m, is french and is taking over right now, releasing here his first track on briquerouge, but the man is no beginner, having released on catwash, homecoming, denote, to name but a few and of course recently on our own rz muzik, his music is deep, acid, techy and ready to please any crowd, ange siddhar is working for laboratory records and works with legendary artists such as ron carroll, paul johnson or chris count and now teams up with illan nicciani on several house project, they have a strong vinyl lovers community following their releases and just joined the label with the show

following on from her highly acclaimed ett lp on editions mego klara lewis presents 4 new works which further her signature explorations of field recordings, electronics, rhythm, sound and atmosphere. here lewis exemplifies her uncanny ability to harness the world outside in order to reconstruct and re-present this as amorphous musical matter. these 4 new tracks exude a certain ambiguity where standard signposts such as rhythm, ambience, texture, light and dark remain as elusive as they are present. whilst bypassing passive or photographic representation of the source material these works withhold a strong emotional quality resulting in a confident and at times brutal musical manifestation. as suggested by the title, msuic resides in a zone at once familiar and slightly off kilter, a world of lewis devising in which the listener is warmly encouraged to enter and explore. msuic is another superb collection of music as fantastic matter.

mother recordings welcomes their new addition to the family. david keno, one of the nicest and gifted person in electronic scene who already released on respectable labels such as noir music or get physical. mother025 includes 2 danceflloor bombs full of power and energy.

*eat my pussy* is the delightfully nasty debut solo release from latvian artist anet k., coming out on pomelo november 24th. the title track, featuring anets vocals and production, functions as both a demand and endearing request, fusing her encyclopaedic knowledge of electro with a cunning lyrical twist. with such a explicit title, it should come as no surprise that the inspiration for *eat my pussy* comes from firsthand experience. anet k. is no stranger to the scene – as a long-term resident of berlin she has contributed vocals to several recent releases, including barkers *like an animal* on leisure system. for the remixes, dj stingray presents the vocals as an even more aggressive command, while the legendary egyptian lover raps some addictive verses and completely revamps the arrangement, presenting his personal ode to cunnilingus in an earworm chorus. on the dance floor or between the sheets: you wont forget *eat my pussy* anytime ...

for some ageing producers, the nineties represent a lost land of hazy parties, forgotten nights and emotion-tugging tunes. but for the fresher-faced end of the dance music spectrum - such as the la-based dj and producer urulu - those post acid house, pre-mp3 days are a neverland of the imagination, something to be relished vicariously through the mags, memories and music of 20-odd years ago. two years back, urulu - aka taylor freels - even released a single called *1991*. it might have made some grizzled club kids feel a bit old, but the love and euphoria in his music are there for all to hear. but jump right up to the minute, and urulu is back in action for sheffields shabby doll label.

jd records is proud to present one of detroits finest underground producers, gari romalis! gari has been producing music since the mid 90s and releasing on classic labels such as terrence parkers intangible records & soundworks and most recently on rawax, housewax, dockside records, hizou deep rooted music etc. this release is all about lo-fi disko house and features 4 tracks packed with analogue love and house grooves from the detroit underground. limited edition.

emotions, melody and rhythm. those are the keywords to describe jin chois new release on serialism records, >delirium ep<. the berlin based artist has already been on the spotlight with the serialism team for his release >full range< (with maceo plex on rmx duty) a couple of years ago. his peculiar sound has developed even more since back then, leaving a special mark on the electronic music by spreading its uniqueness via well respected labels such as lessizmore, contexterrior as well as his own imprint private gold. the original tunes are solid musical journeys crossing over techno and dubstep, somewhere between the berlin and london sound, sometimes between the past and the future. romantically charged of emotions and broken rhythms. delirium ep also includes a minimal avant-­garde re-­visit by jazz musician david koch aka dewalta from the vakant and meander family.

dedicated purveyors of fine house music, system of survival are pietro bingo de lisi and alex carpentieri, resident djs at the bastion of underground ibiza, circo loco, since the party first began over decade ago. s.o.ss musical output has been particularly prolific of late, releasing on labels such as bpitch, freaknchic, tenax and akbal, however it is this their debut release on ibiza imprint vitalik recordings that has perhaps been the most anticipated.

massive two tracker from jonny miller on his 2nd edits release on kat.what you did is quite simply a whopper! disco music as god intended it - arms aloft, eyes shut, inhibitions nowhere to be seen, smiles bigger than life itself. what we have here is not an edit as such but a reworking of chaka khans what you did, subtly housed up, re-arranged, chopped, fil-tered and re-mastered within an inch of its life - chaka herself pretty much always sounds in-credible but here the vocal just seems to stand even taller than usual. on the other side we have something in which some of our slightly older party folk may well recognise. dionnes house classic from 88 gets the full edit treatment and the timing on this just seems so right. originally released on the ace bigshot label out of canada (and was just huge in the hacienda), re-mastered, stretched out, re-arranged and making the most out of all those old school stabs, ploddy bass lines and timeless vocals.

nice price deal !!! raw waxes continues the release number four with one more original track from the noisemaker. the edition 4.2 is enriched by the remixes of korova, duo who were protagonists of our first release, and inigo kennedy, old school artist truly appreciated by raw waxes. on side c, point x15 advances as an acid robot going ahead with swollen broken baselines covering sinister and rough ambients. the rhythm gets darker and nimbler as far as the stylus moves on the decks. on the side d, korova delivers the mirror of their hypnotic and straight techno soul. drums play hard, ambients are kept happily enjoyable, while the acid synths and chords go with the flow embellishing the original version. inigo kennedy’s reinterpretation seems to come from early ’90 productions on missile records. acid elements and palpitating hi-hats, followed by the syncopated bass drum, gradually fire the minds up and accelerate the roll of weird but deep moments. pure industrial machine guns.

a long awaited studio album of saint, petersburg based live-electronic music trio d-pulse. for the past few years d-pulse has released their music on such established labels as island, tirk, teardrop, gomma, and theomatic. mostly known for their remixes, band decided to bring their debut studio album via their very own imprint - vernal records. the band s melancholic sound echoing from the numerous factories and forests of their homecity, izhevsk, fused with exeptional production established d-pulse as one of the most vivid and respected live acts on the contemporary russian indie and electronic music scene.

nice price deal !!! raam records is founded by acclaimed producer and dj elias raam. elias started out producing and djing in the mid-nineties. as part of slippery people he collaborated with legends such as leroy burgess and adeva. later on he explored a darker electronic analogue world in the duo arken, releasing on sonar kollektiv.

tanzlife & kammerton drop *those family affairs* ep on silence in metropolis this september, with martin aquino and sam haas remixes in tow. the washing dc-based imprint silence in metropolis returns this summer with a dynamic four-track offering from tanzlife & kammerton. despite its relatively fresh start the label welcomes the pair to an ever-burgeoning roster to sit beside names such as funkdamentalist, dale howard and more recently jmf following his popular *point to yourself* ep that dropped back in may.
