what it happened again? but we still dont know! all we know is that once in a while every successful couple - and even passionate lovers - needs a break from each other. so this time, you get david woods on the green alone. no tiger around. just another man and his caddy. nevertheless, he has the >license to drill<, a >slazenger 1< in his pocket and >1:00:00< to kill. track after track after track by a true crack. funky peak time!

its no secret that melbourne, australia have been on quite a savage tear as of late. melbourne is home to such folks as lewie day (aka tornado wallace), mic newman (aka fantastic man), francis inferno orchestra, weekend express, the tortoise, andy hart, and the rest of the fine folks at melbourne deepcast. for the 11th instalment on our undertones imprint, we are pleased to present a stunning four-tracker of proper, lo-slung melbourne deepness served up by a fresh new talent who simply goes by kitano. we are excited to host his debut release and hope youll join us in welcoming him to the fray!

a young man is walking day by day looking for himself through the true story of house & techno music, by his two real analogue prayers, >tribute to japan< and >young man and unconscious house<, we can see the suffering and the joy for an inexorable evolution. all his work is accompanied by the magic of the strings and the music is always thanking all the maestros from detroit and chicago that are more than a dream for his visions, but true guides to learn the truth about the music. these are the new strings prayers of an italian guy.
supported by: alex picone, angel molina, slam, doowmork, dirty doering, dj qu, mathias tanzmann and many more!

the highly anticipated squeaky lobster ep has been worth every second of the wait. in terms of sample / synth selection, song structure and sound quality, no expense has been spared. hi-fi synthetic drums intertwine with lo-fi sampled kicks & snares whilst heavy stretched out synth bass lines are topped with bollywood-esque string samples, 80s guitar bridges & plenty of other orchestral mayhem. the lush, thick melodic layers mount up into a frequently spine-tingling whole whilst the rhythm section, although outside the box, does by no means neglect the headnod factor. the incredible feat here is that although no 8 bars are quite the same as the next, a sense of unity is preserved within each genre-defying track, making it the stuff of epic journeys. you may start your listening experience in front of your turntable, staring at the record spinning, but you will end up somewhere quite different, squeaky lobster has made sure of that. as man from phone number 770021 would say: >this is $50.000. good luck.<

pyramid is the third album by the alan parsons project and was originally released in 1978. the album contains numerous references to the egyptian pyramids, hence the name

somewhere between center parcs in nottingham and the white sandy perfection of formentera reside two men dedicated to the art of horizontal dancing. their mums call them ampo and timm (funny names, those notts lads), though we know them by their collective name of coyote. in their minds eye, it is still 1986 and there are leathery looking germans with alarming posing pouches dancing to simply red records on the shimmering terrace at ku club while down the road alfredo is building his legendary reputation at amnesia. apart from the clued-up few, most of the brits are billeted in san antonio where the beers are cheap and the sunburn is plentiful. coyotes music, despite being produced in the east midlands conjures up a world of sun, sea and 80s glamour, while still sounding very much like today.

one of italy’s strongest techno forces returns with his third release for sonic groove. obtanes latest expedition comes in the form of two songs. >utopian man< starts the release off . a highly infectious foot and mind burner with sweeping bass sounds, dark atmospherics & solid rhythms. overlap this with catchy detroit styled keyboard stabs and you are in for a 10 minute ride into worlds unknown. as one ride ends the next one begins with symbology of decline. this banger of a peak time dance floor techno track wreaks of old school belgian techno flavor. the main hook of the track sweeps and swooshes its way through the speaker cones while the drums punish the speakers and listener further into submission. the perfect formulation of rhythm and sound and another 1/2 knock out punch from obtane.

model man is the nom de plume of the diverse dutch man dj overdose. forever strangers is the second model man release with dark dense electro pop, sinister and playful on the new bordello a parigi imprint. comes with beautiful picture cover, illustrated inner sleeve and hand numbered press sheet. a great record made with a lot of dedication! the pleasure of buying vinyl!

classic shep pettibone original 12 inch mix + frankie knuckles 12 inch remix

after the success of fantastic man on klr ltd we have delusions of grandeurs norm de plume, with a killer remix from franc spangler. **pressed on trans purple vinyl**

diese keith hudson aufnahme von 1974 ist so etwas wie ein verlorenes schmuckst?ck, das wegen seines gesangsstil in den letzten jahren immer mehr an bedeutung gewonnen hat. untergebracht in einem sonnigen cover artwork klang entering the dragon mit keith hudosns unverwechselbarem vocal style zu seiner zeit wahrscheinlich ziemlich erschreckend, wirkt aber heutztage wie ein wendepunkt in der entwicklung von dancehall und hip hop. besonders highlights sind st?cke wie will you come out tonight , it was when friends started to talk about you und rage of love !

dutch legend steve rachmad helped shape the international techno scene with groundbreaking and classic releases on m-plant, music man and his own scorp and ion imprints under at least a dozen different pseudonyms. supported by raudive, troy pierce..

split ep with classic soulful us vocal house (songs of my life) and a bit modern house sound on the flip side (night train)

savor musics second 12 inch release follows a rockin record by papol and ekkohaus. we are proud to present today some raw future classics that will quite simply tear the floor into pieces. lucas mari is a hard to catch butterfly that spreads his subtle wings on few carefully selected projects. a resident of the city of rosario in argentina, lucas mari appeared occasionally on the very fine argentine label greener, german imprint stock 5 and on us labels adjunct and airdrop. in true early 90s chicago fashion, the two original cuts feature some serious drum machine action, building a sturdy way to allow for some exquisite chord relief to flourish. gez varley, absolutely stunned by listening to the originals, decided to contribute to the release with a simple and hypnotic remix that only he, the one and only g-man has the recipe for.

the vinyl factory are pleased to unveil this beautifully crafted limited edition from one of the worlds leading electronic music artists, hamburg-based producer tensnake, the man responsible for the biggest underground crossover dance tune of 2010, the omnipresent >coma cat<, and a string of critically acclaimed remixes for aloe blacc, hercules and love affair and azari & iii alike. meticulously hand-crafted by the world-renowned dutch design company droog for the german electronic musician and featuring 2 exclusive new tensnake tracks plus 3 exclusive edits and a bonus live mix cd, this beautiful limited edition is a unique proposition

netto houz are back with an extended and newly mastered version of >bad man speaks<, first released on their album >room 7107<, published on ladomat 2000 in 1998. >the prince of dance< elbee bad explains the difference between house and house music to an oldschool four-four- rhythm running on 113 bpm. the flipside of the 12 inch contains the previously unreleased deep house summer track >knuggles<, which builds on beautiful chords with a live rhodes piano jamming to it. berlin based knuggels recordings, run by dj kriton together with netto houz, is planning further to release new and previously unreleased material by netto houz as well as edits and remixes of their tracks from the 90ties.

with his new compilation, >night & day<, the man who was proclaimed the prince of lounge when he arrived on the scene to rave reviews in 1999 finally shows us the two sides to his talent. everyone, without exception, considers stephane pompougnac to be the musical image of a certain idea of french luxury that is represented by such brands as chanel and dom perignon! with 5 platinum and 14 gold discs, along with 5 million album sales worldwide, he made his mark on peoples minds and ears with a collection recorded exclusively for the hotel costes almost 14 years ago. still, on this double album figures productions from stephane pompougnac that illustrates the remarkable scope of his desires. >take her by the hand< featuring lady linn on the night cd, is at the same time catchy and clubby. jeremy hills, a young french dj that have already remixed songs for mylène farmer, laurent wolf… turn the track into a dancefloor killer!

man-of-the-moment tiagos new project i-boat captain arrives on is it balearic..? recordings! >slower< is a beautifully smooth & laid back synth journey with added guitar melodies weaving a web of eastern influence while dipping its toes into subtly psychedelic waters. this is sunshine grooving at its best. the backwoods (dj kent) turn in a truly mesmerising remix. hypnotic and dreamy but with added 4/4 kick, this is mellow acid house done exceptionally well.

das debütalbum der gruppe von januar 1967 enthält den welthit light my fire und den song the end, der unter anderem durch den film apocalypse now wieder bekannt wurde und dessen originalaufnahme teilweise auf plattenaufnahmen wegen seines textes zensiert wurde. dabei handelt es sich um die griechische sagengestalt Ödipus, ein königssohn, der unwissentlich seinen vater tötet, seine mutter heiratet und mit ihr schläft. die textzeilen: „father i want to kill you, mother i want to fuck you“ erschienen der Öffentlichkeit als zu vulgär, wenngleich schon seit jahrtausenden selbige szene in den theatern aufgeführt wurde. weiterhin enthält das album das brecht/weill-lied alabama song.

melbourne is the place to be right now with many fine producers coming from down under here we have an ep from mic newman aka fantastic man gorgeous lo slung house includes a remix from the uks andy ash. pressed on limited yellow vinyl!!!

traxx - who has productions with international deejay gigolos and creme organization under his belt - is the man behind the third release from fledgling imprint lumberjacks in hell, following sterling efforts from spanish edits don rayko and the mysterious em vee. sprawled luxuriously across the a side is the epic 13 minute ode to danielle baldelli, >to the beat bizarre<, all tumbling drums, tangerine dream synths, and perfectly timed claps and keys. >an insane experiment<, influenced by ron hardy, clocks in at a meagre 09:47 and is characterised a straight up jacking rhythm, with junkyard drums, eerie synth squiggles and truly weird robotic gurgles trading blows before the track morphs into a full on acid wigout. in a word, awesome.

ltd represss on white label!! from the dark, dusty vaults of the hardy family comes this special re-issue of two of rons most trustworthy edits in all of their original glory. two tracks that would send the music box crowd into orbit, lovingly restored and rescued from obscurity. a1. first choice – let no man put asunder. b1. the dells – no way back. essential!

all the original songs by the most influential bluesman on 180g vinyl.

having heard his music consistently tear up dancefloors countrywide, good years linked up with bedfords finest, and night slugs collaborator lil silva to put out his new 3 tracker, named the patience ep.
featuring two harder club instrumental tracks and one incredibly special vocal tune with sampha (young turks / sbtrkt fame), thats been supported by the likes of annie mac, mista jam and sinden to name a few. we hope that this is a good indication of the quality of whats to come from good years in the future.

peters love of obscure disco and house shows in this solo album - wide ranging influences have gone into the musical hot-pot. take the slo-mo lazy groove of lead track and opener love is the key . this sets the sonic palette, laid back, underground and understated (but cucumber cool) throughout. deliberately absent are the commercial and pseudo-poppy sounds from the visti and meyland 2010 debut. this record is a club affair, less in your face and more all around you . for example lost in space is one part elastic groove, one part melodious, enveloping ambience and one part progressive disco groove. tracks such as i m out the door , bubble bubble and drinking in darkness are more direct, straight dance floor booty-shaking grooves. as is what you would expect from the man who has dj stamped firmly into his dna.

the long awaited new single taken from aeroplanes debut album >we cant fly<. >my enemy< is definitely the most dancefloor orientated track on there, but nevertheless we included a blinder of a remix package for you!
up first is rex the dog (kitsune, kompakt), who makes >my enemy< even more epic, or should we say arpeggiotic?! the legendary green velvet (cajual, relief, music man) on the other hand turns it into an unmatched rolling monster for the dancefloor. if thats the enemy, we wanna make it up!

with age comes maturity, or that is at least what one would normaly think. together the three men (jin choi, walker barnard & tolga fidan) associated with private golds second release, the >i m just the rain< ep, clock in at over 100 years… and yet this release is all thrusting crotches and wriggling teen lust man-booties. only kidding, the songs on this release are nothing if not mature. sure the aforementioned sex is there. in the cooing vocals, stompy bass and 60s psych of the contrapuntal guitar of the eponymous >i m just the rain< or in the jimmy edgar-like funk and grind of >revolution for the lovers<.

tin mans voice is infamous, romantic, an expression of love, life and beauty, but also slowly fades away, covered in sleaze. and so is his music, a melodic and rhythmically bass driven art work somewhere in between acid, house, electronica and synth pop. great. don t miss his album perfume which is set to release in spring 2011.

remixes by wareika and affkt.

its a spring thing. second strike from the hamburg city mafia brothers duo. after the great reactions of their last releases our buddys turn back with two spring prime time jackin tracks for your mood! early support comes from luciano, sven vaeth, karotte, dop, steve bug and more.

if you are reading this then you most likely are familiar with the latest addition to the thema stable. it means that you have likely experienced the prescient, monolithic funk of his groundbreaking minimalism series. it may mean that you have witnessed one of his rare, raw and raucous sets of densely layered classic/future techno. we are damn sure it means you have heard, absorbed and been educated by his blistering intoxicating work on germanys tresor label and the legendary metroplex releases as population one or his influential utensil releases. the man in question is, of course, detroits own understated, underrated second wave techno soldier. the master of repetition: terrence dixon!

danish duo laid back made a most surprising comeback to the clubs in 2010 with >cocaine cool<. not that they had ever been really forgotten: their electro pop classic >white horse< remained a sure shot in clubs for the thirty years after its release 30 years back and a constant inspiration to boatload of diverse artists from techno to hip-hop. >cocaine cool< was recorded at the same session but the ironic vocals ridiculing label executives blowing up their frail ego with the chemical substance were deemed to risquee at that time, so the recording collected dust in some box until last year. bostons >soul clap< another duo hailed as one of the hotest things in clubland known for their eclectic funk-rooted taste. they opt for a cool sparser arrangement leaving out the “white horse -like chords. a loose, dry electro funk beat, hpynotic one-note synth, few dub effects and additional vocoder vocals do the trick bravorously. besides an instrumental version theres also a harder jacking dub take sounding like early chicago house edits. and while the boys are add it they also re-edited another huge one from laid back: >baker man< that managed the unlikely balancing act of not only hitting it bigtime in the charts but also in the emerging balearic scene. this 12 inch is cool in every which way!

brand new album - a hell-raising, rebel-rousing rock n roll statement if ever there was one!

special holographic artwork, 180 gr limited vinyl. we are happy to present you the follow-up to the very successful distant shores release from last november, which was played by everyone from pete tong over sven väth to françois k.

slammmed by dice!! the label presents the owner and mastermind mihalis safras. enjoy

here at bearfunk hq we firmly believe in perseverance. we keep asking questions until we get the right answer and with 6ft bear by our side the answer is usually yes. we kept asking ilija rudman to get in the studio and write us a killer lp but being the busy bee that he is it was hard for him to take the time out. we kept asking until he eventually caved in and went underground to record his first lp, >the reveal<. ilija is a devoted and passionate man when it comes to music. one of his prerequisites for recording an lp was that the recordings had to be made with the same techniques and equipment that inspired him to make music in the first place. so ilija hooked up with one of his studio mentors and got his dream line-up of synthesizers, roland jupiter 4 & 8, minimoog, roland sh2, juno 60 and his dream drum machines linn and oberheim dmx. these analogue machines fire up to create a warm and authentic vibe across the whole lp. we are reminded here that machines do have soul if used properly. we start proceedings with the wigged out boogie of >inspectors drive< which might be a little nod in the direction of wally badarous classic chief in< have all the ingredients of dj friendly hits. the lp reveals all the influences that ilija has experienced and it shows the talent that runs inside him as he is able to make such an amazingly retro lp sound like something from the future. we are sure in years to come this lp could become as important as the influences that inspired mr. rudman to make it.

top quality limited reissue of the mega-rare promo-only 12 inch release of >walk the night< by 70s disco band skatt bros., a super phat slice of some of the sleaziest disco filth ever put on wax. this dancefloor bomb was an underground anthem in the clubs of chicago, detroit and new york and also found favour with cosmic djs like baldelli & beppe loda. produced by in gunther and will morrison of thp orchestra fame, this indemand cut sounds fresher than ever and features highly on many dj s wants lists changing hand for big bucks. essential!

nice price deal !!! new series & imprint from the balance/finale sessions familly

every so often a new artist on the dumb unit roster steps up and bats one out of the park. case in point, our man from essen : tim querengaesser: aka pherox. the panthers walk ep is an expressive and bombastic ode to a night that goes boom! sultry lyrics voiced by tim himself and guest lee curtiss sit firmly over top of tims excellant and chugging under groove. the panthers walk is an exciting slab of music for any dj and one that will certainly bring pherox and his brand of funk into a more deserving light.

the track space man by ayisha has been produced by munich cult disco producer veit marvos. hes well known for playing organ/synths on many krautrock releases like for example the emergency albums or on 2066 andthen which he produced together with his brother and nowadays is one of the most valuable german psychedelic rock lps.

after hearing this release, one could ask himself why deetron and ripperton never did something together before?! with their debut together for music man they deliver two tracks dancing on the thin cord between deep techno and house. a true blinder!
