incl rmxs by jay haze & ernesto ferreyra !! lomidhigh unlmtd is a platform for non earthly music and frequencies from distant galaxies, that has echoed down onto us here at planet earth. the label aims to release music that knows no boundaries. to create a home for a label that doesnt contain itself to one genre or time. music that experiments and pushes its own limits into new and undiscovered musical territories. taking influences from the past, and presenting them in a new form. lomidhigh unlmtd has its sights set on the endless limits of the universe, in which it can roam freely and not be contained by gravity or any other earthly presence. the main concept behind the label is to not pigeonhole itself. expect the unexpected. its aim is to give record stores a rough time deciding which genre to put the releases under. at a time where the world is in dire shape, we feel its time to get away from the world and float into outer space. once named the final frontier, the universe knows no limits. the perfect place to surf through the milky ways to distant galaxies, to hear moments of the past echoing into the future. lomidhigh unlmtd is stoked to present its first release. monotaxs debut, the argentinean band formed by dilo (aka elephant pixel), imi and zooey.

after the big success of our first release on outils du connaisseur, we present the second strike, this time by afrilounge-member liapin. basila is his the first solo release, and all the more an impressive one: two deep and slamming house-tunes, basic but concurrently fond of nitty-gritty. according our outils philosophy these two tracks are genuine strippeddown house cuts for maximum floor impact. basila – a massive, slapping bass, rolling drums and shreds of guitar sounds are the dominating trademarks of this track. once the compelling groove catches you, the hypnotizing vocal in the break will inevitably bewitch you. this is one for both body and soul. black mamba features a bassline so corporal, you almost inclined to give it a social security number.

here is once again the most famous vocalist/sax performer of the italian territory...mr. max the voice himself! this time he comes back with a brand new single really catchy ready to involve everybody on the dancefloor! the release is composed by a vocal, an instrumental mix and an electronic remix by kando dj!!

meridian is a perfect example of dj 3000s evolution as a producer. the mark of a good producer is to never stop growing, once you do, you are condemned to making the same record over and over again and hoping no one notices. this record is the perfect marriage between the percussive staples of the motech sound, and a new lighter exploration of sound elements by dj 3000. >meridian< dares you to sit still while listening to it, or to stand on the wall if you are near a dance floor. its ability to make you dance as well as captivating your ear if you are sitting and listening illustrates the dynamic flexibility of the motech sound.

two key players of the scene join forces on figures sixteenth release. no one else than adam beyer and luke slater contribute tracks to this very special ep. mod by luke slaters planetary assault systems project takes off with a fast, breathless groove. its force drags the dancers along, and the mesmerizing bleeps put everybody in a deep trance. within seconds, the solid ground of the dancefloor is nothing but a remote memory. mod has a very special aura, it is hard to grasp its exceptional energy. it appears to be pretty elementary, and yet it is an verwhelming techno anthem which will accompany you for quite some time. adam beyers simulated usage surprises the crowd with its elegance and subtlety. forming an irresistible funk, the fabric of the track interweaves various tiny elements. this savageness obviously manifests in his musical approach which can be characterized by his open-mindedness in regard to diverse influences, currents and styles. simulated usage is strong and joyful, it is techno in its best sense. once again, adam beyer und luke slater manage to coin the face of contemporary club music.

todd bodine demonstrates with this ep once again extraordenary taste and skills. after a very successfull excursion on claude van strokes mothership label and his activities as a heavily booked live-act and dj he presents on >unexpected life-form< two brilliant tracks, that seem to burst with their energy. todd bodine apparently has gained a lot of experience how to bunch the impact on both the dancefloor and the musical side and how to turn the result into a wall of sound. and hes doing it by following his own unique style. on the a-side >calypso< captivates you right after a few seconds with its pulsating sequences and a subtle growing energy-level from break to break. developing a drive which wont miss its impact on any floor. >snakeskin< on the flip is homogeneously build around shimmering melody-sequences which create the energy of this track, while the bassline below pulsates warm and deep. sounds like: detroit without kitsch. or like a cross between matthew johnson, robert hood and fabrice lig. to put it in other words: a typical todd bodine release in the best sense. allready a true highlight in the highgradecatalogue in 20

the glimmers are collaborating once more with ray mang for this acidic dog fest with on the flip side an exclusive blackbelt andersen remix of future diskimo release wanna make out

already played by ame. to proof once again tretau is on top of his game, he comes with this killer ep preceding his anticipated debut album bricks to be released on fortek early 2009. this ep also covers the complete aural spectrum from heavy dancefloor techno to melodious techouse.

an excellent piece of electronic music played by: troy pierce, magda, laurent garnier, matt john, someone else, pan pot, ivan smagghe, slam, bearweasel, tim xavier, sweet n candy, patrick bateman and many more. benjamin fehr, label owner of catenaccio records, to brouqade. we refined benjamins work, which once again stands out with his unique handwriting, with a remix of dario zenker.

no doubt these are the two singles through which the dj & producer maurizio gubellini became famous within the international dance scene...inside this ep you will find these masterpieces remixed by some of the hottest remixers of the moment... once again: good job gube!

once upon a time there was the wilderness ep part 1. what follows is the second band of this futuresque music fairy tail-continuing the journey through the dark forests and gardens of the cheapers in which the >hunter< on a1 claimes his territory and eagerly is looking out for bass-devils in heat. thereby the fun drunken rifleman shoots down the rave-bird and even a flock of house-sparrows are being stampeded into the underwood. on the other side of the forest play the busy intricate bees in the vaults of the >fortress< on its mystical fantasy plug ins and a bewiched quake is coming through the deep b1- cracks until the magic tree of dreams starts to flourish

sexplosion, the new ep from lenfant terrible of sophisticated techno, seth troxler-here recording under his debauched alter ego sex trothler-is a complex, multifaceted, and yet decidedly horny affair. these are the sounds of doing unspeakable and anonymous things to girls in dark backrooms and being too confident to regret it the next day…the sounds of your favorite sexual memory transformed by your overactive fantasy life into scenes of utter perversion. the first track, jusyour, combines troxlers signature use of the classic, organic sounds of detroit house and techno with an avant-garde, fragmented, almost mournful sensibility. its a contemporary jack track as appropriate for a dark, seedy club as it is for an afterparty orgy on your friends broken futon. its almost as if music could yearn and sweat and think all at once. its followed by a brief vocal internude to remind you that being a good lover always means having enough of a sense of humor to laugh at other people laughing at yourself. think tinkertoys meets the wu-tang clans black shampoo. humor aside, the final track, face, utilizes airy percussion and deep, almost cinematic chords (reminiscent of troxlers remix for another precious youth, nicolaas jar on new yorks wolf+lamb label). its masterful and restrained use of processed vocals manages to leave behind so much of the pointless darkness that has plagued techno, whether minimal or otherwise. it builds slowly yet aggressively, like a hard, focused grind with someone you cant actually even really stand. this is music for people whose time at art school was spent getting naked and not hating themselves for it.

soliquid slides back into the driving seat once again, for baroque, with this energetic two tracker. techno meets euphoric house with spine tingling effect! amen is a slightly darker tech house cut, great for getting things building while marghurite is made for that peak time moment. a superb ep from this exciting young producer, and one which highlights perfectly why baroque have this guy currently working on an artist album, due early 09!

clear yellow vinyl! >ammo dump< once again from the dread camp serum comes with another dance floor smasher. with a subtle build-up and complementary vocal sample, this track explodes into a mighty bassline. serum manages to work his magic with a simple roller, but trust me, this is to hurt those bassbins. inspired and taken from the dub dread iii compilation of various artists, this is a lovely slice of dread cake for you to taste and savour

incl someone else & blunt remixes. one of chiles most active and respected artists, miguel tutera, takes the lead in our next release. he has published excellent work in such prestigious labels such as unfoundsound, sub static, gastspiel, kickboxer, toys for boys, force tracks, condormusic, eukahouse etc. subconce is proud to announce this brilliant ep that contains the original track and two remixes by someone else and blunt. in songs like >no future< and >no reality<, miguel surprises once again with a very personal style that takes detail in clean sharp estructures and sensous texture with a funky touch

the label boss returns to his own yore imprint with another stunning solo release. these are different times indeed for andy vaz if the eps three mighty jams are indicative of where his musics heading. the a-sides over here (a glance over prime time mix) roars from the very first moment vaz unleashes its steaming, latin-tinged groove. a far cry from the techno the yore label head once issued, the tune finds vaz exploring straight up dancefloor territory with a dizzying house pulse that straight up rocks. melodies and voices rise to the surface of the dionysian broil and then just as quickly recede, leaving room for a driving bass line to gain the spotlight. the flips hurry hurry (before its too late mix) is classic deep house just as one expects on yore. a jazz-inflected strut with tilman ehrhorns sax playing, wailing over waves of rollicking piano playing and spirited vocal chants. the energy level doesnt flag for the discs final track, bygone times (nostalgia mix), which stokes a fiery house swing with its locomotive pulse, futuristic synth patterning, and high-velocity bass lines. vazs music has never sounded more impassioned and energized than it does in these three tracks and consequently, just as one might predict, different times feels like its over far too soon

hertz presents his brandnew release for the fall of 2008. the man himself shows us once again what an excellent producer he is. perfectly engineered and mixed resulting in a cristal clear sound. heavy kicks, acid like sounds on the a-side that reminds us a bit of the megasmashing hit recreate on reloop. groovy and uplifting all the way, in typical hertz style, with all his experience he knows how to make the crowd move! the flip is of equal strength and turns a wicked bassline into a crazy grooving track. building and building to the climax, you can hear the crowd screaming for more when played in any dj-set! hertz stands for pure quality and you know it!

once again, tuningspork records ventures away from its trademark funky house in exchange for something a little more unexpected. last summer, the label issued >free your mind< (tsextra), a baleraric groove crafted by jay haze and ricardo villalobos. now comes another non-sequitur: >comptine d un autre été: l après-midi< (tsultra), mr. tiersens piano composition reconstructed for the dancefloor by jay. french composer yann tiersen has a minimalist approach that many electronic producers could learn from. his piece (the title of which roughly means >nursery rhyme of another summer: the afternoon<) provides the basis for this melancholy track. djs addicted to hyperbolic effects plugins might hesitate to play this - but those who appreciate subtlety will be rewarded here. tiersens original composition is tastefully manipulated into a track that makes sense in a club context, yet sets itself apart from the usual techno/house fare, providing a rare introspective moment on the dancefloor. and it might be worth mentioning: if you play this track and the floor doesnt fill up with ladies, then it probably means youre djing at a gay club. (not that theres anything wrong with that!)

i get deep, i get deep, i get deeper. that should actually read he gets deep. dj roland clark, that is one of the rulers of the sermonizing vocal, roland steps up to the pulpit once again with his latest release, black in my soul, on king street. this man not only has black in his soul but also an excellent sense of humor, including the ability to work it into his productions, and thats something we all have time to appreciate. swedish producer extraordinaire tiger stripes pumps us full of his dark fuel creating an intricate, nicely rhythmic and dancefloor dramatic track. his dub vox retains its deep and dark stature but twist synths rolands voice into a fiendish narrator. west coast producer david hernandez funkifies this tune on his deep west mix but keeps the deepness well intact. say it loud and dance proud!

short after the latest (develish) dapayk single mos ferry fields the dutch guy henk van zwol aka olene kadar again. his label debut >vakbekwaam< (mfp035) is still fresh and we do remember him playing his liveset on some of the spring-time mos ferry labelnights where he was soaked in sweat during his performance. all this established a solid relation between amsterdam and berlin, which is about to be expanded. the new release >paying billl< presents two new olene kadar masters. on the a-side theres >sarg wualb< taking the subject of >i-modulate-that-siren-until-everybody-gets-up-from-his-seat< to the next level. on the flip side called >betrokken< the young man proves that a track with extensive usage of edgy >frickelsound< elements doesnt have to end in a top-heavy electronica-piece, but can be directed to the floor, very straight forward and impulsive techno. these two tracks show once more what henk van zwol demands from his body and his consciousnes when playing live

side a of the 4th record from monotone leidenschaft provides furore. the producer newbee ash cawlin proofs once more his potential with this track. with wondrous slight devices and a very long breath he is able to design a timeless minimal techno sound, which reminds a little on g-man. with the track leda he provides a genuine hit potential more than the presence as a dj-tool. jack else aka subtronic produced a really succeeded and modern track, which matches perfectly between functionality, friskiness and brightness as well as between techno and minimal sound. the blowing groove is always multi-layered and a little capricious. in spite of that it radiates a defeating naturalness, which is slowly burning into the brain. the new track provides the typical heavy, pushing beats, which let you step on the same position. along with it there are endless traces of crackling and rustling

ian friday is a house hold name in the genre and this track proves why he is one of the most sort after producers and remixes. with his scat trademark he unleashed in caribs leap and unforgettable classic of life starts today feat, byron moore - ian teams up again to present this classic hit springtime in paris on the asante records label. this is one of the tracks that you cant let go once you hear it. this is one of the tracks that made its mark at the 2008 winter music conference and its about to make its mark in your collection, heart and memories - dont miss out!

whats the secret of making a dance floor explode? if youd like to learn just open christian burkhardts contemporary box and look whats inside: at a first glance, it seems that it doesnt contain a lot, except for 3 dance tools. but once on the turntable you may discover the whole secret of this release. what seems to be so simple is a complex construct of percussive elements and basslines that are being arranged just in the right way. contemporary box finds it s peak without even having one, just by grooving on and on, monotonously, with jumping sticks and a pushing bassline. maison noir moves a little more to the housier side and is being carried by warm chords as well as by effective percussions. phey boom brings in a certain coolness and carries that great release home

minimal phreak out strong release by this swedish dream team of clicks n cuts.. after the fantastic gez varley and geoff white releases in the past few months, persistencebit returns strong once more with the swedish minimal techno artists johan skugge and mikael stavöstrand, who work their collaborative gear into a feverish lather on a new trio of high-octane cuts. immaculately constructed and executed with precision, the duos material isnt as skeletal as one might expect-ample noise and commotion appear alongside the tunesgrooves-and, in its acidy moments, pink phantom sometimes sounds like audion, albeit in a slightly less raucous frame of mind
