technopassion presents a single from george le nagelaux that is a musical stroke of genius: >das dunkel spricht< (the darkness speaks), a lovely composition of dreamily-dark synthesizer sounds which meld perfectly harmonic with a contemplative vocal. the austrian master remains true to the techno spirit and combines the ensemble with a irresistible, hard as bone bassline and a solid pumping groove. the original mix is the perfect tune for turning the dancefloor into a boiling pot during the prime time. the dub version is slower, but not less driving and will enjoy great popularity among the devotees of smooth sounds.

hope in bags? no way, but rather thoughts on vinyl! true to enliven musics credo, not to program tools but to bring feelings back to the dancefloor, this new release is as spheric and deep emotional as a tech-house-funk-jazz-track could be. packed with a ribbon loop, bound by sven tasnadi, the >envelope of hope< is conveyed. the recipient launches a hearing pleasure on a special level, either heard in a sunny morning, beginning a lovely day or in the evening prospecting a lovely party, this track sets you in the right mood to experience all things with a quite positive elegance. as always, every part of the body is pleased but most of all the legs and the heart.

decks store tipp !! check track 3 (daniele papini & dop)... dop have managed to create their very own interpretation of how dance music should sound which makes them really something special these days… but if you combine them with the power of artists like noze, wareika, catz&dogz or daniele papini you will get some serious bombs and we are really happy to present four of them on the second watergate records vinyl! these four tracks are all taken from their incredible mix for watergate and they show perfectly the range of the 3 guys from paris. from the state of the art deep house with catz&dogz to their great jam with wareika over to some freaky session with noze it all ends with a true dance floor smasher with daniele papini. enjoy!

the detroit duo known as reference focuses on the soul of electronic music, not the hype, staying true while working to promote the expression of underground music and dance culture. luke hess is a name synonymous with a new wave of detroit techno producers, but his roots go deeper than that. his continued dedication to musicianship and his natural talent as a dj have allowed him to release music on some of the most respected labels in the genre, and play some of the most prestigious clubs in the world. brian kage is the founder of the record label beretta music. along with a countless number of successful releases, brian s experience as a producer, dj, and label head has helped catapult the careers of some of today s brightest and best artists in the dance music community.

brett johnson returns with four quality southern fried cuts on the first installment of >things that go bump in the night<. keeping true to form bj comes out swinging on the a side with two mixes of >southern dandy<. a funky, tech injected bouncer that pops in all the right spots. and if those pops are too much for you then you have an ace of a dub mix to keep the things smooth. >sensual summations< is deep house burner designed to warm up the floor. again bjs calculated funky drums and hip flexin basslines spliced with a choral style synth stab and rise. quality house music from one of the genres true masters.

now techno has its own fair trade. basmati, the new label by gabriel ananda (artist direction) and marcel janovsky (management), does not indulge in pretentious bragging. epic tracks are rarely seen in such a light-footed mood: gabriel ananda shakes his hairdo again, this time in cooperation with floor hope daniel mehlhart and the pioneers from superstitions quazar. the results are two genre-bending tracks, whose friendliness makes them look like 10 minute long wolves in sheeps clothing. pinpoint funk with panoramic view, coming from true masters of all classes.

first on decks.de !!! fresh from the success of his recent release for uk label renaissance, solee readies himself to drop >legends<. a potential festival classic. its vast, expansive feel, matched with its cruise- liner horn riff and dreamy synths, create a true hands in the air, big top moment. on remix duty parquet have done us proud by drafting in palette recs. boss john tejada. the us legend reworks the original with his trademark tech-funk touch. the steroid abusing horn riff is more menacing than ever, and early in the mix works brilliantly alongside smooth, deep synth stabs. this is tejada at this best. monster-release! support by: joris voorn, motorcitysoul, james zabiela, fergie, paul ritch, nick warren, samuel l session, christian smith and many many more

7 artists got locked in their studios and came up with this heavy 4-tracker for studio soulrock, delivering deep and soulful housemusic.

the first teaser from the long awaited second album of phil mison (aka cantoma) comes in a true idjut boy haze. reminiscent of early u star at its best, their remix of >north shore< is one of the most locked-in grooves we have heard for some time. the vocal version sucks you into an almost trance like fashion and is purely made for the late night hours on a sweaty dancefloor. hearing this on a big system is truly a spiritual experience. the instrumental ties down an amazing second 12 inch for leng and gives us further excitement on the release of the second cantoma album. simply terrific.

le loup, one halh of the wolf + lamb duo delivers a newq edit of >erotic city< by prince. flip over for original and sam clarence remix of >true love<.

this scottish producer puts trapez ltd again on the techno map. after a couple of more housy releases on trapez ltd this release is a tougher one.&#8232,,circular star works techno a bit in a post detroit fashion... the sounds smells of industrial sites, burned rubber and has that certain sexy machine rhythm to it which we always felt was the jeff mills factor. they have little glamour about them, they are true and a direct force.

truly beautiful deep house records are things to be treasured, akin to proper songs that will last the test of time, not made to meet a fleeting fad. this is one of those records and a real pinnacle & departure for blm & pawas. although the term deep is an oft overused one, >waiting game< personifies the genres true key traits with a subtly moving groove that gradually builds, using layers of subtle percussion and a rich, warm synth motif to make a rich tapestry of sounds before finally introducing the beautiful female vocal that gives the track its name. patrice scott liked the track so much that he agreed to remix it - his first ever outside of his own, excellent, sistrum label. using plenty of the original track parts but taking it a different direction, patrice really has come up with something special. the track moves along with snippets of the main vocal and clever use of the main synth, the groove being underpinned by patrice s classic sense of production before moving into a more classic >detroit< ending - a mindset with a bigger, more dramatic sensibility

after a series of various artists eps its now time for serious artist eps. fer br did the very succesful kick off with his sweet sweet baby ep. now its time for hungarians techno specialist peppelino to rock it with this >all in ep<. funky techno at its best, pure funky techno. the true special series specialty!

incredilbe package with remixes by schatrax, kink, todd sines as .xtrak, kink and the subliminal kid. the result of schatrax take is a typically beautiful and deep reworking. todds remix of dodaso is typically fucked up and funky in true .xtrak style. kinks version of the gauntlet remains quite faithful to the original whilst also instilling it with his own trippy and unique style. last year peder mannerfelt, aka the subliminal kid, sent me a track which became the only track released on off-key through a demo submission. blackwood freestyle has mutated under the hands by the subliminal kid into a rolling dub inflected groover.

the advent & industrialyzer bring you another dance floor monster. doing what they do best.. serious intense techno with slower bpms that keeps the true soul of techno alive..

after a short break, enterbt records is back on track, and what a return it is. er 0003 features three tracks by a true swiss mainstay: shaka. the fourth track is remix of the title track by titonton duvanté, himself not a new face to the electronic music scene, either.

after the critical sucess of touch (an honest secret weapon for carl cox, shlomi aber, alan fitzpatrick, michel de hey, christian smith) hell yeah is proud to present the new 12 inch from a man on a mission to keep the true house sound alive and loud!! enzo elia awesomely produces and combines french touch, big drums, us house vocal hooks, deep tricky edits and, for all you true diggers out there, a big twisted sample

another true classic, coming straight out of 1996 detroit to 2010s decks. produced by sean deason, released on his label matrix records, this track lives up to its name on todays dancefloors as it did back then. a timeless trip for body and mind!

keeping true to his old school house roots, kevin starke produced these tracks using the hard gear: a real tb303, 909, 808, & 707 drum machines to get that true chicago sound. jacking acid tracks as armando would have done it

banging dubstep killaz! coming straight from fx projekt, a famous french breakbeaterz... one of the best destpub so far and once again a true revelation for the bass world!

for their first release in 2010, the infamous label kanzleramt will team up with suol for this split release called nip split : 01. as the 01 might already tell you, this isnt a one time thang ... this is just the beginning of a looooong relationship to come! on the kanzleramt side we find suol label owners chopstick & johnjon (true, its starting to get a bit complicated here) with the track infidelity that is already a sure shot in the recordbags of the suol and kanzleramt family. infidelity gives us a sneak peak on the guys background, with its sample based theme and the ruff programing. there might have been one or two hip hop parties that the two attended in the past. give this one a spin and the groove will show you, how much impact this lovely house tracker gonna have on the floors. on the flip side mr. kanzleramt himself aka heiko borrowed us his artist peter horrevorts for a dancefloor monster!

club music for us was never limited to way of entertainment and leisure. to create something new and to be part of the modern world is our true purpose. in the initial stages of nervmusic formation, we were great admirers of a catenaccio record label especially for these qualities. now we present our third release by benjamin fehr the head creator of catenaccio. if you hungry for new sound and thinking outside of common grids then this music is for you. imagination is more important than knowledge. knowledge is limited ...

another topical 12inch from the familiar sv brand, for your stylish yet sweaty boogie nights... side a: riccio remarks his own true remixing abilities with this first track on side b. distant sounds of a glittery era blend perfectly with the tricks of nowadays in a track that is as ever stopping as explosive on the floor. side b1: perfect strings and horns crescendos do the job. this should equally appeal to both straight and gay crowds... pure paradise garage in spirit. side b2: hold tight for the final surprise. yes, this 3rd track in the 12inch knocks in a rather unexpected, slightly latin flavoured intro.

>selfish< is hard tons debut ep for gigolo records, an artist in the true sense of the word, and one that appears to follow the same lineage as previous label mates fischerspooner, tiga et al!

classic alert! the first official repress and this time on 2lp. a dream come true! full info soon... this is a very special record. our favourite contender for best house album ever made. this album does not have one filler, all tracks are essential pieces of house music. of course, it includes the more known do you know who you are and in a vision. but check out ride and school hall for instance. originally released under m.e., and much overlooked. this album will be released with new artwork and re-mastered tracks. the vinyl will be available as 2x12, 2 tracks per side loud pressing !! virgo are merwyn sanders and eric lewis. they also recorded as ace & the sandman and m.e. and shouldn-t be confused with the other virgo of vince lawrence and co.

for more than six years now, the dj and producer julian jeweil belongs to the up-n-coming electronic music scene in marseille, cultural centre of the french riviera. with his air conditionné ep on electric rescues skryptom label in 2006, he provided the scene with a true consensus hit, and further collaborations with and remixes for oxia, scan x, danton eeprom or sébastien léger have cemented his reputation as one of the most promising young talents in electronic dance music. his current ep for cocoon stands for uncompromising and demanding techno in its purest form: from the initially more sizzling sound layer in color emerges after two minutes in the first break a hysterically screaming >saw of sinus<, where you almost seem to hear the screams of the people echoing on the dancefloor. >amore< builds up more streamline-like in the style of steve bug, but: dont panic - you will also hear some really demanding breaks in this one. all the hands go up!

this is zhenya aka proxy. i am proud to present my brand new and very own label mako records. i was thinking about this idea for more than 3 years, about the possibilities, about a mission, general genre and other stuff, blah blah blah... actually, i hate all this press release shit...
so the first release is coming. its by a very promising producer called marseille. i know him for a long time and he is a good friend of mine. marseille already had experience in making cool productions, under which great remixes on raven and who are you...
and now it is his time. time to show everybody what the true russian machine is.
enjoy it or you will be killed by kgb, hahaha
mako records is born... and we are ready to invade!
zhenya proxy

starting the year off with this cracking deep ep by our new guys on dirt crew, the runners ! after their extremely succesfull first 12 inch in the beginning of last year which featured the stunning jay shepheard remix they are ready to deliver the next dose of classic house grooves that range from deep house to the more techy edges of electronic dance music. the four originals on this ep alone stand out and keep dirt crew recordings headed towards the future of true deepnes. but as we are real purveyors of soulfull rolling beats we had to add once more one of our favourite producers in the scene to do a remix, this time its our friend from barcelona soul minority who has gained great respect with his cool deep house records over the past years, especially his latest releases on pack up and dance were amongst our most played tracks last year. so here you have it! a great start and there is more coolnes to follow this year! stay tuned and stay deep!

the latest ep to come from the detroit grand pubahs label detelefunk is dj and producer k alexi shelby with >i can go<. kaay is one of chicagos true heroes and cited by many as a pioneer of the citys sound. this is his unique smooth blend of techno and house, as kaay calls >tecsoul< (which is also the the name of his own label) that attracted the eye of the pubahs with a track titled >i can go< featuring kaays own vocals, and the heavy female breathing.

dj sneak once again captures the true spirit and soul of chicago house music for his magnetic imprint. timeless 4-tracker from the windy city.

untracked recordings had a killer year in 2009, and if this is any indication things are only going to get better for the vinyl only label in 2010. release eleven at the label is the incredible new all i ever wanted ep from rising star red rack em. the title track is straight beatdown, theo parrish esque stabs and rumbling sub bass underpin a low slung heavyweight, for the true underground connoisseurs. the track, however, thats had everyone freaking out is in love again. serious support from gilles peterson, and endless inquiries as to its release date has ensured this record won’t be around for long. deep warm pads, an emotive vocal and beautiful detroit strings bring this straight to the heart of the matter. 300 copies only on 180 gram vinyl.

kobayas >madres egoistas< is a highly sought after track on the legendary recon warriors (rw 005) imprint. this time around basics got hold of 2 perfect remixes in true basics style by the spanish masters fer br and david moleon.
funk fuelled to the max this is the chance to finally get that kobaya classic including the brand new remixes!

ladies and gents, a round of applause for max essa >2 be the one u want<. max has been behind a slew of classic releases over the years, including his recent and amazing work with the bearfunk label in collaboration with owner and international disco svengali stevie kotey. max is a true soldier of the balearic cause, the isit boys are more than pleased to have him at the helm of their tenth outing.

gui boratto keeps on giving with these three brand new tunes - a true statement of the tremendous talent he continues to bring to kompakt. he bumps up the bass adds a vocal chorus and teleports the original into a new stratosphere. telecaster is a dark and deep floor leveller. the glam is a rocket - elemental percussions play with a low end synth ride that rolls with a menacing delivery but certain to lay devastation on any dance floor.

fresh 2010 repress !! maybe silent servant (aka john mendez) has been at the coloured sweeties and fizzy pop, as the two tracks for >negative fascinations< are decidedly more upbeat than offerings on his previous three sandwell district releases, or indeed his own historia y violencia label. that s not to say that they are exactly cheery though - the string-like drones of >discipline< will doubtless send a shiver up the spine of many a raver - but >demonstration< certainly ups the tempo by a notch or two compared to the much deeper flavours that we have become accustomed to. an accomplished enhancement of his production, whilst remaining true to his trademark textured sound...
