moody melodic synth patterns, stripped back electronic percussion and haunting hypnotic vocals. may i present the latest masterpiece from reuben tobias: portraits ep. a finely balanced deep underground pop release that will no doubt hold the attention of such names as troxler and jamie jones. the structure, complex enough to hold interest but simple enough to maintain elegance, takes you on a journey through the mind of reuben tobias as you listen attentively to every word of the self expressive lyrics. the b side lead, marran, shares very much the similar characteristics as portraits. minus the lyrics, marran uses subtly layered electronic synths and the comforting sound of young children playing outside to suck you down into a place of complete concentration. your focus becomes stuck in fascination for the sounds guiding you through the duration of the track right to the last second. a brilliant ep. not one for the clubs but certainly one for the collection.

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.

nice price deal !!! the third release from the pmr stable showcases another precocious young talent in the shape of vocalist javeon mccarthy, whos teamed up with fellow bristolian julio bashmore to serve up a slo mo future-soul burner. booming subs, cowbells and analog synths provide a brooding, dubbed out, 100bpm backdrop for mccarthys plaintive vocals. theres nothing stagey here though – its the restraint that delivers the emotion. think chicago after the party. meanwhile, brey of die barbie musik kollektiv flips it into a percussive, height of the night monster on the b-side. radio one – played by mistajam, annie mac, nick grimshaw, ronnie herel.

seiji – the much-lauded and respected producer from west london – returns with the penultimate part of his 2010-launched seiji series. having successfully explored a career path thats established him as a founding member of broken beat originators bugz in the attic, a key artist for the seminal jungle/d n b label reinforced, a downbeat solo artist for sonar kollectiv and a producer and co-writer for the brilliant roisin murphy, in 2011 seiji is a man focused squarely on the dancefloor. the seiji series is just one part of that with seiji stripping things right back, identifying each release with a simple number and putting all his energy into creating music that he truly believes in. a merging of sounds and influences that have always been with him, but have never sounded so right – encapsulating everything thats exciting about the underground uk scene at the moment. as with the previous two releases, seiji 4 is a double a-side focusing on the current uk house sound, a bit soulful, a bit funky a bit jacking, with two solid heavy grooves that are going to work on any house dance floor. no other has a really soulful vocal sample, a rolling reese bass riff and percussive uk house beats. easy is more of an infectious skippy house groove with a chunky bass hook and deep techno pads

the fried tofu crew follow up their excellent first course with another tasty selection! on the a-side sweet soulful voices catch you from the first try on. but dont be hasty, or you will burn your tongue. this is hot and far from being a dessert. after the first impression of sweetness, you will feel the spicy taste coming through. we all love that slight burning on the lips, making you really feel the feel. the first cut on the b-side digs even deeper into sweetness. somehow everything seems to be so lovely, each time this one is played out. its clear that even the ruff guys cant resist the taste of honey. real sweet and spicy, thats how its got to be. things are straightened out on the final cut, which finishes off the meal with a raw funk jam. the extended guitar groove gets back to the basics. sometimes few essential things, combined in the right way, can be all you need. a typical mistake when preparing a meal is to add too many different spices.

if you were to cut neville watson he would bleed acid house, he would also quite likely knock you flat on your arse for having the temerity to wave a knife at him, but thats a whole other story. for his first wu contribution he ventures down the ethereal proto-house boulevard. jacking 707 patterns, a bouncing juno bassline and outer-space synth lines take you into the upper atmosphere for a glorious airborne joyride. as ever, neville manages to evoke those 85-89 feelings without ever sounding merely retro or like some kind of pastiche, something that many attempt but very few manage to pull off. over on side u apiento, the force behind the magisterially brilliant testpressing website, chips in with a heartfelt homage to the new beat sound. another testimony to the fact that a lower tempo doesnt have to mean diminished energy levels, the orange place simply oozes class from top to bottom. like some lost ancienne belgique classic it pounds and pumps along, building up the tension all the while until the quasi- eastern refrain lets loose half way thru and all of a sudden a mystic portal opens up in the space-time continuum that leads all the way to southwark street in late 87.

recloose is back with a state-of-the-art house 12 inch. two refreshing house tracks on the a side, and a banging heavy one on the b that-s leaning towards electro. the recloose as we once knew him is back. glorious! -saturday night manifesto- is his first new output in three years. it was well worth the wait, the music at hand here is truly mesmerizing.the ep shows a night out recloose style. it starts out smooth and mellow with -electric sunshine-, a heartfelt future soul piece. it then moves on to the bumping groove of -parquet-, a shaker that carries that signature recloose funk. it closes out the night with -tecumseh-, a dirt-deadly primetime mover that opens up halfway and make you want to reach for the stars and then some. with -saturday night manifesto- recloose delivers a classic ep that reminds us of his -spelunking ep-. yes

the original track warp by the tripodz has been causing a stir in the drum & bass scene worldwide. the mp3 of the original mix was given away about 1 year ago to a handful people but it made a circuit all around the world. thats why we reserved this new remix of warp for our treasure chest and are proud to announce it to you now!
besides misanthrop, phace & neonlight, proktah is the hottest neuro producer in germany and always delivers the highest quality in sound. these tunes have all what it takes to make it an anthem: epic electro synth edits, a massive bassline, fat orchestral string sounds and rolling drums & percussions - one neuro remix on the a-side and the original jump-up anthem on the flip. drop this as intro and you can be sure to get everybody on the dancefloor ... say no more

nice price deal !!! nice price deal !!! nice price deal !!! upps he did it again! rock n roll comes back to stock5!! or is it heavy metal? we dont know but its fat and its from ahmet sisman. but instead of bleeding out the same ideas again and again, ahmet presents a totally new side of his soul. his beat gains a lot of power and presence, fewer sounds do more without losing the typical sisman atmospheres! the young artist from essen knows nowadays how to interpret and manipulate tendencies to his very own style! and as usual great work and for sure one of the seasons big surprises

self defence returns in full effect with new yorks one and only dj dukes (of sex trax / power music fame) >summer madness ep<. dj duke had retired from the music front for a while, after he had about 300 records emerged after his >blow your whistle< blew up in 1993 and during the past few years. with releases dating back to 1990, you know the mans got skills aplenty, and they once again get a killer workout on this ep. each of the tracks shows a different side of his music-making and rewards ones time and attention, demonstrating that duke plays in his own league of house music. a bit of curry flavour seeps into >summer blast< by way of a sinuous string melody, adding an exotic tinge to the breeziness that otherwise infuses the cut. a funky, vibes-like motif and analog synth streams bring additional colour to the scene while a crisp, pumping groove locks everything solidly in place

in addition to the >best of ambient< compilation from john beltran, two remixes are made to honour one of our favourite electronic music producers of all time. the a-side gives us a reinterpretation of >brilliant flood< from rising star kassem mosse together with his studiomate mix mup. this remix smoothly pimps up the track whilst leaving the atmosphere of the original intact. on the b-side, sven weisemann made a composition as a tribute to john beltran, which contains elements of different original cuts. the result is svens glorify tribute mix, a dreamy epic adventurous nine-minute masterpiece in three parts

supported and played by: seth troxler, anja schneider, adultnapper, anthony collins, audiofly, daria, deetron, franck roger, julien chaptal, kabale & liebe, lee jones, marco resmann, matt star, silicone soul, stacey pullen, .... the yangango ep shows you two faces. on the a side with the deeper cut >too big to fail< and on the b side through the bassline driven and euphoric title track >yangango<. both tunes are quite complex and geniusly arranged and at one point you can fly away on their crazy dynamic. the digitaline edit of >too big to fail< puts a new groove in front, takes it a bit more on the tooly side and highlights the fantastic synth work of the original mix.

we present you the newly born imprint outernational recordings. the kick off for this unique vinyl series is by basque county native kastil who sets the right tone with three wonderful disco edits at a mid-tempo / slomo pace. since uploading these tracks to his soundcloud page, the feedback has been enormous. side a contains the long, slow and loopy back to philadelphia, where kastil cleverly plays with the vocals and delay and creates a highly tense build up. theres no doubt that some large players in the very popular disco edit culture will play this one out. on the b1 side you find the track smd. a track which received great feedback by some key figures on soundcloud. this track is the ultimate pre-lude for the summer. fortunately, this is being released just early enough to enjoy this during the european and northern american summer. with again beautiful vocals floating through the track, this track definitely reminds one of a hot day in the local park. the b2 track is called rolls royce. perfect as the last track of this release since its a long edit which ends with a very atmospheric piano solo that keeps on floating through the last few minutes of the track. all and all, these edits will definitely make some heads turn after the date of release. supported by: cosmic boogie, dicky trisco, the legendary 1979 orchestra, sleazy beats recordings, ben la desh, 78 edits, osvaldo wilson, mannmademusic, gitchell moore

new label by third ear records and what a cool first release!!! groovemental is bringing explosive jazz versions of two classic dance tracks! side x: dumb machines version of theo parrish,s falling up is based on the carl craig version of the track rather than the version recorded by theo. one of the biggest house tracks of the 2000s and a recognised classic. dumb machines have introduced words. the word falling is intoned throughout the track and the second stanza from louis macneice,s poem snow is recited. side y: written by tori amos. dumb machine,s version is based on the armand van helden remix. he created an irresistible dance groove, selected a few choice vocal samples, which became part of the clubbers lexicon, to create one of the biggest dance records of the 90s. dumb machines have gone back to tori amos lyric, taken various lines from the lyric and cut and pasted them together. two very inspiring jazz tracks for the house and techno generation, and for everyone else too of course! been on high rotation since we got it in stock!! recommende

mule music happy to announce the joe claussell remix of kuniyuki >all these things<. we have been waiting almost 4 years…. we have asked him when we were going to make the remix package kuniyuki-remixed. now finally his remix is arrived! joe claussell invited his favorite instrument player and let them re-performance the original version of kuniyuki. the remix is 22min which is composed of 7 parts.the first half is quiet and beautiful,then after the speech of martin luther king during the break,then emotional second half come. we think this great remix is one of the best work of joe claussell. on b side,kuniyuki made self ambient version. the painting of record sleeve is by kuniyuki father! so dont miss this beautiful record.

the still sound remix 12 inch sees one of the stand out tracks from toro y mois critically acclaimed sophomore album get a reworking from the electronic mastermind that is toby tobias. on the flip side we hear work from a new name, voodoo bear aka khaled bourguig, a french graphic design student who started making music 6 years ago. initially inspired by hip hop, khaleds voodoo bear project blurs the line between electronic and organic music.

the -makeovers- project is a compilation of some of claudes best re-twists, some of which are so far removed they can almost be considered original works. this special edition vinyl includes one of the most sought after remixes, -warpaint- originally by pocket 808 in australia, vonstroke turned this into a late night anthem in 2007. played by techno djs, dubstep djs, and everyone in between this track was never cut to vinyl until now. on the flip side claude remixed the nublu orchestra out of new york. he was never completely happy with the original version of the remix and hes gone back and re-made it into a very special piece of music including a new vocal sample from his wife aundy who also did the vocal effects in whos afraid of detroit? this collection was put together with the theme that a remix can be an inspiring starting point for an entirely new piece of music. these are two of the deeper and darker remixes but we think you agree they are also very special.

fantastic and incredibly rare afro-disco album from 1978. originally released on the seminal french disco label barclay, this album seamlessly blends elements of african, afrobeat, funk and disco styles, with segments continually morphing and evolving into new tracks. irresistibly funky and percussive, this album’s drumming patterns and melodies grandually hypnotise the listener, with only outbreaks of african chanting breaking up the grooves. the b-side is effectively one long drum track broken down into 7 segments that never drop a beat. this album really takes the listener on a journey to africa, via 1978 new york, and is a real one of a kind. it’s also a samplers dream with no end of complex drum patterns and basslines to recycle.

they may have grown up in different generations on different sides of the atlantic, but one thing detroit master delano smith and irish up and comer gavin herlihy share in common is a disregard for boundaries. deftly slipping between the definitions of house and techno, both have carved names for themselves by ignoring the laylines of either genre to imprint their own inimitable stamp on dance music. on krypton factor the pair link talents to deliver an ep that is typically irreverent of trends or genres.

with the new release on maruca music we welcome a trio from moscow: b.a.d.
it stands for bvoice, anrilov and danilov (denkbar). all three of them are well-respected artists on their own and now they joined together with the label owner pier bucci to create and crossover between russian culture and latin-american soul.
the title on the a-side >musica moscow< is like a night in moscow: trippy, mysterious and lots of rhythm.
the second track on the other side is named >the poem<. it is a deep and thoughtful track complimented with a russian poem by arseniy tarkovskiy which was taken from a movie shot by his son and one of the greatest russian directors ever andrey tarkovskiy himself.
early support by: andrey tarkovsky, fiodor m.dostoyewski, g.i. gurdjieef, antonio velasco pina, lev tolstoy.

in the context of electronic music, 12 years is damn near eternity, and though those who have lived it may not remember all the stops along the way, the ones who have kept on top of scott monteiths deadbeat music project will tell you he has been no slouch. through 6 critically acclaimed albums for scape and wagon repair, as well as countless singles, remixes, compilation appearances, and last years radio rothko dj mix, monteith has explored the art of dub in a staggering array of contexts, and staked his claim as one of it s strongest champions. and while the last few years have seen him concentrate on the more dance floor oriented side of things, his latest album and first release on his new blkrtz imprint sees monteith returning to his roots in the headiest and heaviest of dub business.

new one from kyle hall on his label wild oats. vocal house track on the a-side, and a jazzy disco drum cut on the flip.

bang the boxs second vinyl outing is a loved up three tracker from label resident and co-manager brett johnson... lovin u- the birds chirping in the intro let it be known that this is one for the summer time. vocal harmonies laid over true house beats and a full-on bassline seal the deal for this one to be a future classic... sweet love- continuing the theme, sweet love rolls down memory lane with a catchy vocal, and bretts signature robo-funk rhythms. the rolling bass line and spaced out chords bring it all together to seal the deal as a dance floor killer... love by my side- this track is last but definitely not the least. its one for all our slow house peeps put there willing to let the slow-burn take the dance floor in its clutches. the recycling main line is so infectious that you wont want the track to ever end…

one sided limited edition (600 copies only)

true to form, souvenir are back with a snappy summertime release perfectly hinged & ready for sweeping the dancefloors. souvenir 036 various artists features lewis boardman & maher daniel blending their sounds, and converging on this ep for some magnificent effects. the a side starts out with daniel - he is a new, but solid name amongst the techno-gambit, having released on labels such as get physical & bedrock, as well as on souvenir. while his remix workings of >rumblefish< earned him a 2 1/2 month long-spot as number one on the techno charts. with >here and now< with dark, driving techno that sounds like its been made inside of a blazing house-fire. burning & singed, the the layers fall heavy upon one another - with a penetrating dancefloor deep-ness to the bass. next up, >icaros< on the inside a track…spins a dark & deep nighttime soundscape, deep into the depths of a jungle somewhere. a distant & hollow vocal of a tribesman hums hauntingly in the distance, with a severe & driving bassline to make you run like a scared little raver deep into the jungle. on the b side, boardman takes over, one of the uks newest talents - recently remixing for nina kraviz & yousef - with >tranquilizer,< on b2 is quite a minimal retreat…with some intergalactic space-fight sounds thrown into the mix, alongside the rolling bass, and chug-chugging. b2 enters the title track, >the broken is beautiful.< a nice, chugging bass-line meets a ethereal chopped up vocal, carefully flowing in & out of the bass-line….to meet up strong midway thru the breakdown

and here it is: the second vinyl ep of niko schwinds album >good morning midnight<. it features some of the unique tracks that niko has created together with some of berlins hottest production talents. on the a side are two tracks that feature the clicky tech-house boys that are channel x, where things kick off with >back from the bar<. it sounds as the title suggests: a little wobbly, a little drunk, a little crazy, but also pretty magic. quite clearly this is an homage to one of berlins not-to-be-forgotten clubs that is unfortunately history now. but things continue on here at least with >dont turn the lights on<, a more straightforward dancefloor track, with a trumpet as the main protagonist. this is one of those tracks that keeps leading up to a real arms-in-the-air-moment if it wasn’t so damn housy at the same time. on the flip the magical connection between niko and label daddy oliver koletzki can be heard on >master of ceremony<, a chopped-up house track with epic dimensions. when things get to the piano breakdown, they get very musical and colossal before dropping back into a great house track. the stark contrast between the piano melody and the groove on this really make it. last but not least then, the original album opener >good morning< that features the singing of fran. it works great as a great album opener, but also perfectly as a slower and more thoughtful addition to a great ep

nice price deal !!! the record is divided in 1 side hovatron tracks and 1 side remixes by some of the hot names around. side is is gypsy trader, super soaker and young blood soaked in his known style somewhere between hip hop, skweee and crunk: pure floor excitement! like his first release on lo-fi funk this one is a bumpy ride on the dancefloor.

>charecters< tom trago and awanto3 (aka steven de peven, one half of rednose distrikt) team up again for their alfabet project. two heavy and funky chicago loving house tracks that will put a >spell< on you! t.i.p.! this series is all about warm and dusty house music. it will run for 13 two track singles, totaling 26 tracks. each track representing a letter. >chicago thank you< is a homage to the city of chicago and its music. the infectious groove sucks you in straight away, the added funk half way keeps you moving. it sticks! more dirt on the other side, which contains the 10 minute plus >waus music<. this track demands you to listen to waus music (house music) all night long. its been doing some serious dancefloor damage around the globe already. great follow up to the first alfabet release

the mex machine ep features 5 original tracks, each showcasing a different side of the toy selectah sound. >sonidero compay< is a big meeting of the minds, featuring the reggaeton king dj blass over a proper cumbia beat from toy. toy revs all the way up to 150bpm territory with >la ravertona<! (strap on your glow in the dark cowboy boots). most tracks fall somewhere in the middle of >sonidero compay< and >la ravertona<. toy teams up with mad decent label-mate mumdance for >anni riddim<, a good example of toys personal hybrid land. mex machine is a milestone release for one of the most exciting and influential artists coming out of mexico today!

2000black is back on wax with 2027black, a huge release from shokazulu.
a-sdie: part 4 - funky bass really stands out on this track. cool synths, keys and an awesome groove from the percussion. big, big track!
b-side: dis yah one i love - heavy track with a garage feel to it. breezy synths tie it down but the real focus is on the percussion, the beat is tremendous!

tube10 returns with their 10th release already and their not mucking about! usas own don distal is stepping up with the ever epic >apple bottom< is it juke? no! is it house? no! is it dubstep? hell no! apple bottom is a hybrid tune is there ever was one ... this one smashes the dancefloor and leaves the crowd begging for more. with its juicy form and rave like edits its obvious that distal is no one day fly. with releases set for pinchs tectonic label and sindens grizzly you will know what to expect from this guy.
flip it over for >space graffiti< another piece of interstellar vandalism. this time distal shows what he is worth on a more dubby side. dont underestimate this one as this will pound any speaker system to bits with its firm deep bassline. let the tribal beats pick you up and put you down wherever you want to!

following ryan davis debut >routes of life< on traum in january 2011, his high acclaimed follow up shows ryan is a real tastemaker but also a real club rocking musician. few artists in the electronic modern dance scene of today make music that seems serious and intense... and still accomplishes to have club people go wild on it. it is a bit of a lost treasure of the golden techno days, ryan always reflects in his music when he creates moments of beauty with an collective fee to them. ryan davis in one of them and his new ep shows that side even more than his debut. a-side track supernova brings images together of psychedelic west coast soundtracks of the 70ies, pop art, shoe gazers and maybe salvatore dalis surrealism.

with surely one of the most exciting releases ever pour le merite presents these heavenly open air tracks by mr. suedmilch. let the summer in your heart and listen to this melodramatic b side with a huge oldschool vibration track on the flip.
support comes from butane, gus gus, martin eyerer, oddvar, ruede hagelstein, sis...

aux 88 mad scientist volume 2 marks the dark side of the scientist. fans have been asking for vinyl and aux 88 and puzzlebox records deliver. gosub and mr velcro fastener pump the song >exsterterestrial time travelers<with new surgeon like precision with aux 88s great vocalization over the top to give the electro world more of what only aux 88 can bring on a dance floor.
side b is the first of 2 ongoing collaborations with the dynamik bass system giving aux 88 even more bass. last is one of aux 88 croatian brothers nter from the crobot crew. taking on time portal nter gives his mix a electro funk style mix showing why the crobots have soul.

here comes the new echocord colour. after some big releases with luke hess, mike dehnert and sebastien san here comes the new one which is a split ep of the copenhagen heroes mikkel metal & resoe. after his latest 12 inch on echocord, mikkel metal again shows us his more techno-side of his universe, with this killer peaktime bomb, and still with his own unique deep sound. after his resent album on echocord, resoe here presents a more dancefloor-orientated track, for the fans of dettmann/klock, shed, sandwell district and pattern repeat.

their debut three tracker ep has a theme running through it.. yup, its all about sides. first up is a riff you may well know from trevor horn and fgth. they take the tribe groove, slow it down and strip the groove back. using just the riff from the famous 80s monster hit they cunningly carve out >two sides< as their sultry opener. next up >by my side< enlists the help of the handily associated brass section. shuffling grooves, stabby horns and muted picked guitar are the order of the day. its a perfect one for those early dj-set appetizing sections. to round things off we tone it down even further with the beautiful >by my side<. subtle tones, lazy keys and a smouldering groove. when the keys kick in during the last minute its a glorius and sublime treat. stay tuned for more sides.

the fourth release on dont be afraid >west acyd shelter< takes one of the most important jazz funk records of the 1970s as its starting point. semtek rebuilds the legendary hook from scratch over a disorienting range of acid, broken and techno accoutrements leaving a tweaked out bassline stepper. photonz bring their unique lisbon via essex style to the proceedings with an >i cant believe its not garage< take on semteks beat, proving yet again that they are a force to be reckoned with in 2011. the b-side >east acyd shelter< is a sparse analogue workout that would be at home as much in legendary and much missed kings cross hangout the key, as it would in a james bond soundtrack of the timothy dalton era.

a very special release here from legendary rave producer eon, aka ian loveday. loveday, who passed away in 2009, was known and loved for his enduring impact on uk dance culture, although sadly this was the one and only release on his zarnak records imprint (although loveday himself released 12 inches on a host of labels including pal sl, vinyl solution and plus 8). upon release the papal magnet 12 inch sold out swiftly and soon became a highly sought after record - this batch was found recently and has been passed onto us with the blessing of lovedays family. on the a side you will find the relentless late night throb of >cable rider< - 90s techno at its finest. flip over for the moody introspection of >passing clouds< and raw, dusty analogue thump of >crosstown< - our pick of the bunch. an excellent release.

after taking a break for more than 6 months bukaddor & fishbeck return with 2 quality tracks. >camino< unites tight and loose aspects in an exciting modern way of club music. the track works on more than one level and incorporates silly little ghosts of sounds and massive basslines and last but not least: a lot of profound sound shaping. >physx< on the b-side is much more warped, moves in way of a snake, does is surreal dreamlike and still makes these brave cuts that throw you back into life. at times this track seems to be quite dadaistic and maybe this accounts for the most experimentell track they have ever released... but it would not bukaddor & fishbeack if this track did not have a atchy clubby side to it.

without a doubt it is one of the strongest pieces so far to come out of the mind of matt star. morphology, the title track is a trip that is leading us directly into the center of the dancefloor. it is characterized by its enormous dynamic, a deep & dirty roughness that comes up alongside an unstoppable kind of a mesmerizing groove - this one, for sure, is going to be loved by all fans of the usual suspects that are playing in the global champions league of modern high quality techno music. mttstr on the flip side seem to be building up a bit more subtle. both of them show matts talent for patiently modulating sounds creating almost extraterrestrial fluid grooves. both sides of the record are bringing an overall energy containing several well placed breakdowns and carefully crafted moments of high tension before matt is letting things kick back into full force again.

after the great success of the .rst vinyl cosmic cowboys are proud to introduce you back and forths new project >stolen reality / i promised you a ballad< signed by two awesome artists as the german elef and the italian ues. with works on labels as dirt crew, fresh meat and consistent, elef established himself as one of the new talent of the european scene thanks to his particular sound that mix the old-school house tradition with orginality and lot of character creating a perfect mix that youll surely feel on his >stolen reality< as remixer were really proud to welcome the parsian varoslav (supplement facts) that reshapes the original mix into an amazing hypnotic version in that unique way he got know for! absolument formidable! on the b-side here comes ues, one of the greatest italian producers and dj, well known all over europe thanks to his productions on prestigious imprints as resopal, blabla, robsoul and exprezoo just to name a few providing an icredible track full of emotion as the title will suggest you. >i promised you a ballad< is definitely the perfect sentence to describe this jewel of the contemporary house music that could just leave the listener speachless. together with the original mix on this side comes the remix of the danish mathias mesteno (upon.you) designing a fantastic groovy club edit that youll look forward to play.

harbour city sorrow will showcase different sides of techno. after exploring the electro side of things we now go more towards the deeper housey side of techno. xdb (kosta athanassiadis, metrolux, sistrum) is walking on the border of various styles, creating his own unique blend of techno and house.. youll find 3 tracks of his hybrid style on here. deep sound layers and almost jackin rhythms. well crafted raw analog tracks that will appeal to the club jocks as well as the more adventurous deejay and home listener. music that is not fitting to just one main category.. just how we like it.

desolat is proud to present a release where veterans meet manon aka manon maeder has been part of the swiss techno and house scene since the early nineties. starting with illegal parties in bern, later involvement in legendary early days afterhours at the >oxa” in zurich, followed by first productions in 1996, residency at >hive< club and her involvement with the >vision< festival, manon is today probably more thrilling than ever before. for desolat, she delivers remarkable tracks that sound like a sonic snapshot of a balearic sunset. pat carnal speaks about manon getting lost in brasil 20 years ago and the conversation was recorded at one >formbar< afterhour. guitar virtuoso mats küpfer added his part at studio willeneger in bern. we d like to tell you more about >que cara é essa” but its probably better to listen to the music. first remix comes from another veteran and one of our heroes, stacey pullen, a kosmik messenger and an innovator from the second wave of detroit techno. he takes vocal snippets from the original and wraps them up in his trademark percussive, driving, stripped down sound. second remix comes from desolats own tini representing a new generation of electronic music talents. she turns manons original in a dark claustrophobic shaker that will gently take you by the hand and stay on your side until the next sunrise

frijsfo beats are proud to announce the latest single from uk bass badman, sully, entitled >toffee apple<. picking up where his 2010 keysound single >in some pattern< left off, it sees the versatile pirate vibes-imbibed producer take purple synths and twist them into dizzying contortions. a rude drop roots the track firmly in uk soundsystem culture while a tough steppers beat drives it forward. sully is one of the most treasured yet under-celebrated producers in the uk today. finding a space between 2steps swing, dubsteps edge and breaksteps drums, his versatile productions perfected styles and vibes four or five years before the future garage movement had begun to investigate them. as the rest of the bass family are now embracing house, 2step, uk funky, purple synths and juke, sully looks to have a big 2011 ahead of him. >toffee apple< is the perfect sweetener. limited edition single-sided 10 inch release with etching on flip.
