stylistically different from their previous releases, the dynasty ii ep is a catchy, propulsive and perhaps at times even romantic release. providing four energetic songs of varying mood, the ep proves that the boys can always deliver. the ep included cesares road tested >what do u want<, a straightforward old school banger with deep distorted synths and a monster vocal hooks. the track is then also remixed by both jeremy & cesare adding both depth and character to the already powerful original.

after his succes on mps005, argentinean producer tacito is back for some action on micropunto.another 12inch full of dubby flavours typical of tacitos production, plus an exclusive remix by giorgio gigli (zooloft, prologue) which rounds this release perfectly.this record starts with lession, a dub techno mover that opens nicely this ep with reverberating stabs and percussive loops throughout.leaks brings us to a more mellow and melancolic mood with a break in the middle with nice freezing stabs and mellifluous pads that hypnotize us throughout the track.giorgio giglis remix dont fail to surprise us. with his refined productions he takes the main track and does a stripped down, dubbier version with melodic pads, that gives this track, giorgios special moody imprint.the third track, las flores de fidel, is on a more funky tip with nice percussive sounds while the digital exlusive track hard to sleep, closes this ep elegantly with a mesmerizing composition full of narcotic sounds.

no doubt, daniel herrmann alias flug 8 does polarize. the principle he follows through all releases during the past years is an atmospheric melancholy that has got to fascinate. tuning would not exist without detuning, and a mood is a mood. this may be understandable easily. however, those who get into his music can expect much more from it.

>and i heard a strange deep sound. as i got closer to that particular place, the music took a more stable form…i thought i already knew this sound from somewhere<… welcome to the musical world of exciting new amsterdam based producer simon weiss. coming over all early theo and moodymann-esqe, he clearly demonstrates a passion for all things detroit in terms of mood, melody, rhythm and texture. half bouncing feet, sweaty walls and concrete floors, half sophisticated, futuristic movie soundtrack score …simon weiss fits the description of a home taper absolutely perfectly. dance to it, close your eyes to it, but whatever you do listen to it. 100% house music with bits. play it all night long!!

wetyourself! is back with wys! 010: >i got sunshine<. its a solo ep from jacob husley featuring tracks that showcases his very diverse sound. enlisting the remix talent of chloe, >i got sunshine< is an eclectic ep that has something for every mood.

exactly two years after his first sirion release we proudly present mastras second 12 inch titled >out of nowhere<. this time around in collaboration with his buddy jon donson, who also released his first ep on sirion in spring 2010. the mood and structure of this latest coup entirely reflects the familiar yet different of the bernese natives mastra & jon donson. for the first time in form of an exciting fusion of individuals signed by both distinct handwritings. >out of nowhere< is a deep and, owing to a impulsive bass drum, repetitive deep house track. this impression is given through a state of mind clearly offside of a classic course. nevertheless its bits and pieces remain stuck and arent easily banished. pablo bolivar is known for his large spectrum of high quality compositions. upholding that standard he delights with yet another impressive interpretation. the subtly chosen synth revive the base of the original track - an impulsive remix of vast variety.

its already about ten years since we started with our first vinyl releases in 2001 including music from plastique, telly quin and mr.clean, time is running and 3 more sublabels and about 35 vinyl releases later it is time to celebrate the first decade … we are looking back to a steady upgrowing music-development, successful parties, live performances and an upbuilding artist collective.the first part of the anniversary compilation presents a variation of different dub house tracks, several are more deep, others are more massy. some remembers to the 90s us house era. including music from dub taylor (eintakt, dirt crew), olivier girardot (ogmusic, arte), lohouse (talk dirty production) and fingers in the noise (deepindub) the eintakt 00 compilation is an unique peace of jewelry, diversified and also a versant device. second part of the anniversary (will come out in december) includes music from neal white, ghettozoid (bekeschus edit), reynold, gunnar hemmerling and telly quin. the 10 years eintakt anniversary vinyl compilation will be limited to 200 copies. feel good!

harry axt has sharpened the axe. the man for the rough seems to be in best mood and brings us 3 peak-time madness.

chicago native producer joey kay, and well-known poland producerand d.j. aphreme duel it out on stylistic recordings styl#003 high-riser extended play vinyl 12 inch. the title track to this e.p. is a1 in tracklisting >high-riser (skyscrape edition), with aphreme and joey kay bumpin the deep house chicago style, with joey kay engineering and co-producing aphremes great jazzy song. joey also plays intricate piano leads, and layers of extravagant synths and strings, dueling with aphremes main concept. a great floor filler, jazzy mixed with chicago deep house and peak club blend

oakland based damon bell curates his first vinyl release with >kush musik wax<. damons productions are always rich with mood, swing, and depth. this release plays on damons archival tendencies as a dj leaning heavily on his influences of dub, jazz, and all things deep. the release starts off with damons much heralded >ezuku< which found its way onto the playlists of rick wilhite amongst others. >idiya< displays damons flair for arrangement as he twists the vibe midway thru landing you in a completely different space than the opening. >kymestry< is an uplifting deep house trip that brought a smile to the face of ron trent while at the deepblak studios. closing things out is label head aybee with a deep mid-tempo dub of >ezuku<.

moods is a playground that gives you out of the (sand)box tracks as well as a swing for new artists to fly. it is about inspiration & experimentation – good music to lift your mood, delivered on pure white vinyl.

finally back in... steffi is a resident of the world famous panorama bar, recodring artist of ostgut ton, owner of the dolly label and frequent collaborator with dexter in the co-running of his klakson imprint she now releases her first underground quality release entitled the reason ep. dj jus-ed has been playing this for 6 months now with great responce from the ladies! this is must have for mood setting and set changing…outstanding!

in its original form, holy ghost!s debut album cut >hold my breath< is, pure and simple, great dancefloor electronic pop, in the hands of shadowy duo tiger & woods, the song has been totally reshaped and refracted through 80s r&b radio. they have slowed the pace and inserted synth-funk hot flashes that recall prince – and, no kidding, the time, and jimmy jam & terry lewis – to create a mood that fits comfortably (and pleasurably) within their future boogie m.o. cosmic kids ron poznansky and dan terndrup have taken the track in a more tensely dramatic direction. it might be the vaguely darkened synthline upon which much of that track sits that lends itself to its more intense feel here, and gives it such a pleasant nocturnal feel. finally, theres falty dls re-envisioning, which goes down awfully smooth for a track so full of the big, thick, bumping bass beats. it’s an aural pleasure to find yourself dreamily lost in the brooklyn, new york producer/djs halls of reverberating sound.

the long awaited >thracian ep< by bogdan irkuk a.k.a. bulgari is finally here. already played by idjut boys in tokyo and supported by heavy names such as mark e and toby tobias to name a few.
bogdan asked to include this legendary quote by his hero brahim ivaylov, written on the back of the record sleeve. -... it came down from the mountains, over the wind-swept plains, we covered our faces as the wind and the sun spoke with one voice, singing our songs so impossibly true...- brahim ivaylov, thrace, 1906.
these few words really capture a lot about the mood of this masterpiece. dont miss this release - no repressing.

produced by close friend black coffee, the original mix provides a suitably deep and meaningful platform for bantwinis heartfelt lyrics about phony relationships and, in turn, his soulfully immaculate delivery. lush afro-edged rhythms lead into smart bursts of trumpet, cool double bass-lines and stirring rhodes solos - a rich musical weave more than amplifying bantwinis performance.
a wealth of stylish remixes skilfully widens wasting my times dancefloor appeal. gallic house sophisticate rocco ups the tempo, cracking whip-smart beats against thumping kick drums and infectious metallic key stabs, as does paris kingpin dan ghenacia, thanks to a fiesty vocal remix and dub fusing gothic mood and jack-happy sass in fine style. ghenacias versions have already, in fact, become a thunderous week-in-week-out staple of his ibizan circo loco residency at dc10 this summer. elsewhere, real tone main man franck roger offers a neat, dubby riff on black coffees original production, injecting sweet balafon melodies and additional percussive pep.

semester musik 003 ist eine release, die uns wirklich stolz macht. wir haben die legende the egyptian lover, der einst das vinyl von detroit nach los angeles brachte, mit chris james, dem nachwuchstalent aus birmingham, an ein gemeinsames mischpult gelassen. die unbeschwertheit des west-coast-undergrounds von 1984 trifft die britische coolness von 2011.

superdisko 06 enters the late summer with a melodic house smasher from viennese underground stars smacs and patrick kong, it is the first vinyl release of smacs and patrick kong on the superdisko label, 2008 they opened the catalogue with their great >sender/ receiver< digital release, now they are back with >innocence< in a dirty mood! superdisko label boss tobias oliver comes with a fat remix of >innocence< in a driving techno style with analogue chords and pads and brings the track into a sunny 90ies feeling....

limited 1st run on marbled grey vinyl !3rd in this superb deep techno series, support from: sandwell district, scratcha dva, sigha, james ruskin, mark broom, claude young, steven tang, billy nasty, delta funktionen, miles sagnia, morphosis, ben sims, commix, jerome sydenham, regis, shifted, function etc... surface return with the third in its beneath the surface series, following on from the extremely well received between worlds release. journeys to the deep volume 2. is an important and personal record to nick and the surface camp in general, paying tribute to family elder jessica dunton and her influence on nick and his families lives, and her long fight to continue living against the odds! facing the heavens- sees nick take on his much lauded ever vivid moniker delivering an extremely fitting tribute that somehow blurs the boundaries between the early classic emotive sounds of 90s uk techno, house and 70s funk.. cutting synth lines drenched in soul develop throughout the track taking us on a deep yet strangely uplifting journey, the chord sequence beautifully maintains the mood, but for us at the office its all about the detail, piercing moog leads, emotive strings and rhodes, all driving along at pace on top of a reese type melodic bassline and rolling 808 drums. this is as comfortable in a club as it is at home. timeless in its approach, with a purist touch. on the flip nick duntons >leaving the planet< is an altogether different beast.. beautifully produced and super deep, this is the classic dunton sound of late, harmonic drifts and carl craig 69 era strings morph between lush sustained textures, that somehow float above the powerful pulsing bass, that imitates a heartbeat and really gives this track a haunting feeling that when coupled with the hypnotic phasing drums, and fluttering reverberating stabs make it is as deep as the sea, yet beautifully bass heavy. this is nick taking his wide screen cinematic sound and stripping it bare whilst losing none of the evocative touches that have made his recent music so affecting

inner surface music present their next release from manchester based and ,dj support from regis, truss. lucy, cio d or, truncate, samuli kemmpi, perc, inigo kennedy, forward strategy group, shifted, jonas kopp, grovskopa, obtane. inner surface music present the second release on the label, after the success of the first wireman ep we are very proud to present an ep from two of the label owners and. 2011 has already been a very productive year for this duo, with releases on horizontal ground, black sun records and project squared. they also made their first appearance at berghain this march as part of the horizontal ground / frozen border collective. for the second release on inner surface music we are presenting three deeply hypnotic techno tracks built for the dancefloor. non compliant sets the tone for the release with its deep tunnelling soundscapes built round tough techno drums to devastating effect. reverberate moves more towards the housier end of techno playing with dub stabs and lush keys to set the sultry mood. molecular deconstruction closes the release with its metallic drones and trippy sequences building their own cavernous environment to play in.

ten months after vidabs last output, we are back with the debut solo release of our good friend tomas svensson. some may know him as a half of berlin duo subbroomassociation, or as the former live drummer of >schulz & söhne<. tomas started his interest in techno/house during his studies of jazz drums and piano at the udk in berlin, and ended up building his own studio to realize his vision of sound using mostly analog equipment. the swedish native delivers here two tracks that fit perfect the mood of his home country with its huge forests, clear lakes, and wide landscapes. swedish techno with with a detroit soul. enjoy!

brooklyn based madteo returns to meakusma after his critically acclaimed >sinister ministers< 10inch released on the label in spring 2009. his signature stylistic approach still borders on deep, ambivalent and engaging house music and hiphop influences. the five tracks here are some of the strongest material he has produced, with basslines, melodies and moods shifting in and out of focus all the time and once again setting a rough yet subtle mood. the >bangin on the ceiling< track features a new collaboration with hiphop legend sensational. for fans of deep and different club-oriented music.

from the very outset, the m.c.d.e. remix of shit robots >answering machine< picks up in a completely different realm from marcus lambkins original, which appears on his 2010 debut, from the cradle to the rave. the stuttgart-based producer has replaced janine >planningtorock< rostrons slowly rising vocal opener with outerspace emanations that fade as they drift into a constellation of wide house grooves and deep bass. rostrons own pizzo remix is up next, and in (a)typical fashion, she takes the song and shifts its mood by clearing away the dancier elements of its predecessor in favor of a foundation of strings in every form: plucked pizzicato notes, low cellos tones, and high pitched violins that flit through. last up is another rostron creation, the whisper remix, which actually outpaces lambkins version in bpm, but is lighter all the same. here, she uses synths almost as a wash of white noise – a whisper, if you will – and only drops heavier vocals here and there along the songs rustling path.

this time we present you with 3 new names on the labels roster. quell has already been causing waves this year with releases on esteemed imprints like ibadan, 8 bit and these days amongst others. his track >real people< has been a favourite with us since quell sent it out a few months back. steady and with a very pumpy bass, the track builds a very sensual mood reminiscent of the music played at the sound factory back in the days. jack union is a side project from label owner alex tsotsos for his retro sounding house productions. >you can make it< is exactly that. chunky drums and an oldschool sounding organ set the theme for a playful and heavy classic house track. on the flip, we introduce two long time friends the square room heroes. >now is the time< combines modern sound aesthetics with a smokey voice urging you to release the freak. from claap with love

1 track each from area, hakim murphy, and murdoc, + bonus remix. the 2 on a lean more toward the stoner side, the b is all murdoc focusing more on the beats. the past year has seen area dropping solo records for francois ks wave music, anton zaps ethereal sound, and brendon moellers steadfast recordings. with songs described as >guaranteed to create a special mood in a club< (resident advisor) and >warm, shoegaze-dreamy but floor-ready pop< (little white earbuds), areas heady productions tread the line between functionality and abstraction. hakim is a producer/dj from the chicagoland area whos musical style ranges from house to techno. hakims journey begin as a dancer in chicago as a lot of his musical influences come from larry heard, robert armani, dance mania, relief, and cajual records. as a chicago footwork dancer, hakim gradually became inspired by the music and began playing records in 1996. since then hakim has ventured into production work and eventually founded two records labels in 2008: machining dreams, and synapsis records with avondale music society. hakims discography includes releases on metamorphic, planet detroit, and stolen kisses. murdoc is a dj/producer and current member of the condiment dj-collective, hosting events featuring the likes of acid circus, sammy dee (perlon), and mark henning.

jonas saalbachs last journey to south of france has put him in a more mellow mood, this two summer tracks have distinctly organic grooves and atmospheric climaxes.

tripmastaz is a name that has been steadily pushing forward his career in the past year, with his latest works on be as one, moon harbour, cecille, and magnetic recordings (complete with a loco dice remix) been heavily supported by the djs gang out there now, andrew is debuting with a full ep on be as one, after his appearance on the latest tools for school vol.3 compilation. house syndrome opens the ep with a bang - truly an infectious tech house stormer for the big stages, which is already championed by the a-list djs constant learning is a proper tribal techno affair that combines a rolling groove with a catchy melody, an uplifting summery mood. on the b side tripmastaz takes things into deeper territories with quiet hit men, an acidic bassline worked around a machine groove as andrew knows to deliver. pende (dub) closes this ep with an underground attitude, a tune that will be noticed by those looking for a special moment on the floor

mr raoul k and baobab secret take the next step and put out new remixes of >le karantkatrieme peul<. prisme are a belgian duo (nicolas pepinster and yves theys) who started to produce their own material in 2010. they liked the title track so much that they remixed it and sent the result to mr raoul k who instantly fell in love with the melodic and laid back approach they took on it. this lush piece makes a perfect entry into a long night out, promising that every piece will fall into place. the other production crew featured on this release are the iklawa brothers (mzwandile nxasana and sandile magwaza) who run their own label in durban, south africa. they are big fans of mr raoul ks work and have been dropping his tunes in their sets on a regular basis. their remix is a dark, afrobeat driven tune that takes the listener on a long trip into a gloomy world full of surprising musical twists, dramatic changes of mood and impressing string sounds. the last remix is done by mr raoul k himself. he shows a new side of his musical skills. resulting in an epic track that seems to dance on tiptoes around a giant beast. one small step. hesitate. check carefully what happens. do not disturb. just watch in astonishment how it slowly awakes and stretches out to its full glory. a track that is full of hope, but reminds us to keep our feet to the ground to provide a solid stand.

presenting the >cant buy love ep<, wolf + lamb records invite you to enter the visceral world of aquarius heaven. a rhapsody of sonic flow both rough and smooth with heavy doses of sleaze and deviant, lust-filled rap, the aquarius heaven experience is nothing short of electrifying. when brian brewster met dop in paris, 2005, the former reggae, dancehall and hip- hop singer was to undergo an electronic rebirth. during the hours of studio lock-up that followed, tapping into a wealth of musical influences, the arresting sound of aquarius heaven was born. after the outstanding debut >7 days ep< on circus company caught the attention of gadi mizrahi of wolf + lamb whilst in berlin (where brewster is now based), it wasnt long before the label made aquarius part of the crew and the >cant buy love ep< was brought to light. a heady mix of sexually charged house funk, a-side >cant buy love< bumps and grinds down a bassline made of rubber with the heavy depth of brewsters vocals in the driving seat. playful and bold with singer dani sicilianos yearning interruptions, the mood is a twisted fusion of love and filth. already a staple in the sets of soul clap and wolf + lamb, >cant buy love< has all the markings of a cult record in the sex music hall of fame

label boss solomun delivers the soulful summernight jam -see you everyday alone-, that has a captivating bassline and a groove that makes you sweat. epic strings and sounds of thunder and rain are leading into deep breakdowns with a dark touch. although the track has a immediate effect the dancefloor, it will linger on in your head for a long time. stimmings contribution to this ep is -challenge the air- featuring the soft vocal and bass of david stoltzenberg. its a very atmospheric and intimate track. layered guitars and baselines combined with stimmings signature groove account for a warm organic mood. the echoing vocal phrases underline the floating structure which gives a hypnotic touch. although the track features a typical stimming sound and has enough power to entertain the dancefloor, its is definitely one of stimmings more personal and emotive works

te next release on double standard is the sonic love child of deniz kurtel, guti and gadi mizrahi. conceived at the dawn of a new year inside the marcy hotel, brooklyn, the way i feel ep- is slow, instinctive mood music, beautiful in its simplicity. floating on a lazy groove, title track the way i feel- sounds like the haze of being in love. intimate, sexy and deep, the sultry voice of a lover caresses layers of spaced- out beats drifting through low-key piano notes, distorted and interlaced with the woozy bassline. flip over to the b-side and the vibe of -3am- is muddier and full of eerie, echoing keys and disembodied vocals. with a bassline raw and impulsive, -3am- is the late night counterpart to the early morning bliss of the a-side. fluid in motion, light traces of techno slowly filter though the loose percussive rolls in spontaneous unison. as an integral member of the wolf + lamb crew and one-time resident at the label-s creative source –the marcy, deniz kurtel has since evolved into one of house music-s most exciting producers, releasing her dazzling debut album on crosstown rebels earlier this year. dynamic argentinian producer guti is known for his grooving, latin-inspired techno on labels such as desolat and supplement facts but this ep-s trip into more languid territory is a pure expression of the accomplished jazz pianist-s affinity for experimentation. through his intuitive operations, wolf + lamb and double standard label boss gadi mizrahi has given a home to a variety of deeper sounds filtered through an alternative vision for house music. -the way i feel ep- is double standard at its unadulterated, sensual best.

the latest release from joakims tigersushi record label sees the deadstocks 33s collaborating with stopmakingme for an ep of 4 lush, sometimes balearic sounding slabs of proto house dance music. straight off the back of crackboys ep, and joakims debut single from the new album, >gravity< compounds the summer mood of dance music, joining the ranks of artist gatto fritto and soulclap.

after the success for our first rhythm section re-issue in the form of >coming on strong<, we are pleased to announce number two, a re-issue of the classic cut >atomic bass<. back in 1991 it perfectly captured the mood of the times as a priceless dance-floor weapon. a must have for any serious breakbeat hardcore dj. fast-forward to 2011 with original copies reaching crazy second hand prices, its time for some remix action.

aniligital music presents tal m. kleins >deep dark place<. this is one deep trip with a giant didgeridoo tribal dub setting the pace for a house intro that melds into a heavy juno bassline and peaks with a piercing 303 acid lead. this track does not mess around. the dead rose music company goes deeper both figuratively and literally by adding vocal elements that echo through their swagging cosmic thumper remix. soho808 liven up the mood and tighten up the impact with their remix classic house piano treatments and guitar.

sampler 2 of 2 with a special mixture from electric sounds to dubstep - drum & bass

2011 is going very well for shlomi aber, having started the year with his dj sneak collaboration on be as one, followed by his acclaimed double album-remixes pack on ovum which are still all over the charts and dj boxes. now shlomi is back on his own label and takes things into a summery mood with the opening track >coconuts<, which is built around an hypnotizing synth melody, and shlomis uplifting smooth drums . on the other side is >who said that<, a rare vocal cut from shlomi which is a proper groover on the floor, with its minimalistic architecture but effective elements, surely something that will be picked up by many

12 inch with 1 new quehenberger original (uffuff) and a trio of near remixes from his latest album hazard (released as laton 047 in 2009). patrick pulsinger tackles new beat, in his unique future funk sound. a welcome return of elin (who hasnt been on a mego record since 1995, check mego 003). he slurps out a version of hey gert, making it into an slamming slowed down twister of a track. this leaves the pumping excess of altroys (minimal sould) keep talking remix.

chilean producer aldo cadiz (desolat/einmaleins) drops the next release on elevation limited with 3 superb club tracks. tengo c kicks things into top gear with an infectious percussive groove packed with subtle preacher man samples and undeniable raw energy. darran nugent and pavel lenchenko follow up their recent ep on sasse s mood music label and take tengo c into a slightly different, housier direction but keep aldos kinetic energy cooking to the max. all in all 2 versions to suit different tastes. check the flip side for two totally different party tunes with a real unmistakable chilean flavour. loko block and negrito ven demonstrate why aldo is one of the hottest new talents right now.

this double a sided release finds us in a mellow mood as we couple joshua moses >pretty girl< with sharon bengamins >mr guy<.
>mr guy< is a lovely slice of lovers rock and somewhat overlooked when released in 1980 but it has become a firm favourite with us here at bristol archive. >pretty girl< finds roots singer joshua moses showing his softer side, it was something of a hit on the original release and makes a natural pairing with sharons tune.
both tracks were originally released as singles on bristol label shoc-wave records some thirty years ago and were given their first digital release with their well deserved inclusion on >the bristol reggae explosion 1978 ¹ 1983<. >mr guy< also made it onto the limited vinyl version of the album, but running time constraints meant there was no room for >pretty girl< something we a very pleased to rectify with this vinyl release.

>over< is the undisputed highlight song of gusgus brand new album >arabian horse<. right in time for high summer season we proudly present a remix package that takes no prisoners. after taking dancefloors worldwide by storm with their remix of whomadewhos >every minute alone<, italys hottest export tale of us & tennis return with another mighty roller. that bassline definitely puts the deep back into deephouse and makes you wonder how sexy this summer will be. mood musics sasse is no stranger to our label. alongside robert johnson guru ata he has remixed one of our catalogues most cherished classics: jürgen paapes >soweit wie noch nie<. so it was about time to invite him again. his vocal and dub mixes perfectly catch this summers omnipresent oldschool house vibe. president bongo delivers an absolutely massive dark acidic take complete with heavenly strings and things. and last but not least gusgus very own bigir veiran takes control for another uplifting neohouse mix that is slightly reminiscent of a certain robin s - but very different of course. voila - choose your weapon and go party!

did you ever hear about christian strobe? no? hardly surprising, cause its a brand new solo-project by christian schnall, one half of disco trash music (maximal electro) and spruce (dreamy shoegaze). the german guy is musically rooted in the 80ies and early 90ies and as christian strobe, he combines airy new wave pop, retro-futurism with a pinch of house. the original mix of >midnight call< is full of magic, desire and an airy atmosphere, but still a simple pop song. the nightdrive version is recommended for nightly rides with your ferrari testarossa through big city lights. the italo-disco-pop-masters from codebreaker gives the original a funky french taste and reknowned keenhouse conjured a good-feeling remix with lovley summer-piano-chords. midnight call? you could name it sunshine call! in a more and more digital environment, the warmth of the analog vhs-tape version gives you the relaxing mood you need. the placid >lonesome astronaut< completed the debut-ep and takes you to a cosmic trip though time and space. stay tuned for the upcoming full-length album called >heartworks< in autumn 2011.
