released in conjunction with john tejadas lucid dream: recovered data 95 full-length album as part of the phthalo origins series, reworked data is two singles and eps featuring (as the release name implies) updated remixes, reworkings, and versions of john tejadas original electronic compositions by his contemporary peers in techno and house production.
reworked data vol. 1 features bodycode applying the house and techno sensibility of his recent immune album for spectral sound to tejadas production, followed by labelmate broker/dealers sophisticated melding of the source materials nearly fifteen-year-old anvil vapre-era sense of melancholy to an insistent 4/4 rhythm. traum schallplattens dominik eulberg continues his tradition of developing elaborate, drawn-out explorations of the ebb and flow of techno dynamics by adapting the asymmetrical idm sounds of tejadas source into a persistently propulsive techno narrative. finally, ninja tune and plug researchs daedelus applies the accessible synthpop template of last years love to make music to to tejadas melodies — almost crafting another >fair weather friends< in the process.
reworked data vol. 1 is available in a limited edition, hand-numbered run of 300 12 inch eps.

spoilt rotten is on the run and keeps the pace with these funky cuts by dj naughty!

once again, lump sticks to his guns and brings you strangely funky tunes to make this world a better place . it s too late. the world has gone sombre and our man walks the desolate streets. the femme fatale is there, right under the street lights. the gansgster are all around. bobby has been shot and all the junkies are surrounding the dealer in the back alley. this is no house as you know it. this is harcore funk. it s noir, it s dirty, it s dangerous and risqué. run. the cops are coming...

for the 5th installment of adultnappers illustrious ransom note, we welcome into the fray paul kominek, otherwise known as pawel (dial/orphan ear) with two sublimely beautiful compositions of modern electronic music. there is not many words to describe the feeling of these pieces. they run deep into the soul of house and techno. moving, yet intelligent, pawels plaintive take on dance music is unique in sound, but profoundly universal in feeling, connecting to emotions that seem rare these days on the dance floor. with powerful peak time remixes by new yorks alexi delano and brendon moeller, ransom note part five should make some noise in the coming months. from the desk of adultnapper, as inspired by lines and curves… as you well know, parallel paths are foreordained entities of diversity. as they travel further away from their origins, the more attraction tends to set in, not as a spiritual mechanism, but, rather, as a physical replication or limitless mimicry. one trajectory makes reference to the other, leading to a barrier, a zero crossing, some sort of cessation of thought. lines become curves and act as waking agents for the soul as it approaches its limit. sometimes this process is disrupted, as is the case this time. i have lost something on the way and i seem to be stuck in the place where i lost it. i feel anchored here and need to find a way to move again. there is not much time.

longtime fan of the 80s , digikid84 draws his inspiration from both the classics of this period in music (run dmc, michael jackson, midnight star, eurhythmics) and from cartoon classic trailers such as (thundercats, silverhawks, galaxyrangers,). this funkadelik touch has earned him an unwavering support from artists such as benjamin diamond, cassius, grand master flash, dj mehdi or vicarious bliss.

after his recent release on clone a made up sound (aka 2562) presents his new platform for his own beat freakery. it is no news anymore that dave huismans is one talented guy! his debut 2562 album was one of last years highlights ... and his new album set for early winter 09 will be not create a smaller buzz! in the meanwhile mr huismans also managed to squeeze out some killer tracks out of his machines for his a made up sound project! these 2 tracks will get a limited run on his newly started label. >rework< started out as a sneaky bonus remix but ended up as a killer techno track in its own right, with stomping 4/4 beats, an irresistibly simple 3 note chord melody and gut-wrenching sub bass. contrasting is >closer< on the flip, where a yearning vocal stab spirals around a warm synth line that just keeps on building over signature punchy broken beats and a big b-line, all the way until its climaxing breakdown. highly recommended!

heavy playes by ellen allien (charts pos #3), sven vaeth, richie hawtin, dj t ... we are very happy to present this new and fresh style of ahmet sisman s notorious sound! supported by grand master flash, run dmc, africa islam and eddie murphy!!

>realtime art< - that s how blackisbeautiful call their electronic music art. an analogue idea within the digital age. inspired by the aesthetics of analogue music devices, the first album of the dortmund-based producer team will be released in september via the upcoming cologne-based techno label 200. blackisbeautiful partnered up at the vrstck club in dortmund two years ago. they bonded through their deep connection to analogue art. residency atvrstck and a musical and friendly collaboration were to follow. both look back at long-term musicianship and life experience. while tim dicke paved his way into the electronic scene through being a drummer, bassist and soloartist in punk and hardcore bands and later on as dj, Ümit han quickly moved from djing to producing his own tracks. in 2006, Ümit won the remix contest to gabriel anandas >glücksmelodie< and also released tracks on karmarouge, meerestief, harthouse and other labels. blackisbeautiful created two tracks in real handicraft with alerion and purpur: mesmerizing and enthralling at the same time! music that invites you to dance and yet puts you to rest for a closer listen. attention to detail and experiment-happiness get you addicted to blackisbeautiful: occasional street recordings of sounds in everyday life and sampling of snap-shots run through their dynamic sound images.

as the european summer draws to a close, the next rekluse release takes a brief change in direction and offers up something a little lighter to accompany the last of the hazy rays. after the previous electronic madness from simon stokes, mr copy, loco & jam and kiko we are joined for this release by la based artist erphun.
erphun has had a pretty hectic summer himself, appearing on steve lawler s viva , dave seaman s audio therapy , oliver huntemann s ideal audio and stephen bodzin s hertzblut . not a bad run at all. with previous releases and remixes on mutekki , saw recordings , excentric muzik and forthcoming releases on bedrock (+ john digweed s new comp) as well as 8 sided dice , this guy has had a busy couple of years...
to complete the package mr henry von (joint label owner of rekluse with fergie) has reworked tu sueno, giving it some of his trademark bite and re-marrying the vocal to the breakdown, keeping things shaking until there is no where left to go but to bring that beat straight back in...

ltd 500 run! aided with mungolian jetset, ost & kjex take you straight down to the basement of camp ooh la la, with a good spirited, fun and rather raunchy take on princes teenlust classic dirty mind... say no more...ehh...ehh...

>munich bass<. oder: schlachthofbronx feiern ein kosmopolitisches volksfest.schon vor veröffentlichung des ersten albums haben sich die drei münchner von schlachthofbronx eine stetig wachsende fanbasis erspielt - dank ihrer weltweiten dj-team-einsätze sowie live-sets und den gut informierten musikblogs dieser welt: viele ihrer tracks gondeln in unterschiedlichen versionen durchs netz. doch nun gibt es mit >schlachthofbronx< eine amtliche version ihres >munich bass<, dem dreckigen hybrid aus afrikanischem kuduro, südamerikanischem cumbia, karibischem soca/dancehall, brasilianischem baile funk, kapverdischem funana, amerikanischem bootybass, dubstep und bayernschranz. diese wilde und anarchische musikwilderei hört sich an wie ein hyperaktives, betrunkenes nashorn im autoscooter: primitiv, aber druckvoll. das ist funktionale clubmusik ohne kulturelle grenzen oder genre-scheuklappen, die ganz dreist afrikanische, südamerikanische und karibische beats mit tieffrequenz-bässen, balkan-gebläse und widerborstiger bayerischer volksmusik mischt. das stiftet verwirrung und sorgt für aufsehen - aber fährt in alle glieder. globale tanzmusik fürs 21. jahrhundert.

motorcitysoul are frankfurt veterans and deep house pioneers matthias vogt and christian rindermann (aka c-rock). vivid follows various successful releases (kazan and space katzle) on aus music, and their first debut studio album >technique< on simple. hailing from germanys own >motor city<, the pair have developed a reputation for creating soulful yet truely futuristic deep house that has a signature sound all of its own. >vivid< is trademark motorcitysoul û resonant evolving chord sequences, beautifully arranged organic percussion and >wild pitch< fx and loops combine to devastating effect. fellow frankfurter roman flugel gives the manheim house sound a damn good run for its money with a tight, loopy groove that locks you from the off. all kinds of detail and sound flourishes pop in once, never to be heard again, keeping the listener on their toesà.the package is completed with a percussion heavy dub that threatens to steal the show. roman flugel needs little introduction. one half of alter ego and one of the collective responsible for legendary labels playhouse and klang and not forgetting one of the finest clubs in the worldàrobert jonson

first release of a series of 12 records from rob. institubes are proud to present a work on the long run from french wonder rob: for twelve consecutive months, rob will write, record and produce an unknown number of songs, following the occult logic of his own inspiration and the meandering path suggested by the gospels. each month, a new record will be released, bearing his name and the title dodecalogue vinyl and digital formats. each record will discuss one of the twelve apostles. twelve records. rejoice!

nice price deal !!! the songs on yachts debut album see mystery lights from the bouncy, burbling you cant take it with you screed the afterlife (which plays like a less spastic companion piece to the mae shis run to your grave) to the roller rink ready vocoder vocals of im in love with a ripper represent yacht at their most poppy. its a collection of stone jams that finds the band finally as hellbent on experimenting and expanding the boundaries of its sonic scope as it is on having fun. built on electronic foundations laser effects, skittering computerized beats, and spacey synth lines (or guitar riffs that have been tuned or distorted to sound like synths) these new songs are giddy with creative freedom while remaining tethered in service of their melodies. the vocal melodies are bright and buoyant, but delivered (by either band member, or in unison) in a chanted, oftentimes detached monotone that plays up the repetitive lyrics mantra like feel and adds a welcome undercurrent of slacker cool to their otherwise sugary optimism.

we are proud to present manuscript records, hailing from the ukraine and run by vincent inc. it is a renowned deep-house label that is very well respected by those that know as you can see from these dj reactions!

since 2002, dj and producer kook and brazilian singer roxxy bione are now a duo. without a doubt, they are typical dirty and danceable berlin electro and rock n roll. important to them: no run of the mill concert atmosphere. they prefer people to dance and freak out, not just swaying to the music. kook feat. roxxy bione don t hide behind a laptop, but submit microphone stands and stage floor to grueling tests. the musics charm is a result of glamorous pop, rockin electro sounds and groovy dance – often crowned with driving singing. >phantom hitchhiker< is the first evidence of this danceable dangerous romance called kook & roxxy.

after a run of collectible releases on their own and one 12inch for esteemed deep explorer label the guys from valencias cornuta imprint return with another strong double header of summery deephouse that easily gets ahead of the flood of moody, two chord releases of minimalists turned to house yet never gets noodly or looses the floor outta sight. . >good try dub< sports a nice jacking beat, superb warm rhodes and string chords. the beat on the flip pounds a bit harder yet keeps the classic soulful vibe

uk producer, remixer & musician richard earnshaw continues to be one of the most indemand guys around in house music today. responsible for seminal work across leading labels from all 4 corners of the globe, his stunning mixture of deep, soulful & vocal combined with his darker, techier more underground alter ego, pretty much covers all the boundaries when it comes to house music. bringing together 4 of his latest productions across his own duffnote, one51 & for the first time on vinyl his constantly talked about guess label, earnshaw again covers the full spectrum of house from the soulful sounds of duffnote, to the more club driven sounds of guess. this is a strictly limited vinyl run features vinyl only exclusive material.

adf, aka adriano filippucci which manages to achieve a homogeneous fusion combining the euphoric feeling of techno and the vibrant soul of house. the title track, >perugia< is named after adrianos hometown in the heart of italy. whether it is the warmth of the sun or the mediterranean lust for life, perugia turns out to be a massive track, with its sparking melodies and a real sense of atmosphere and dynamic mischief. perugia gets the remix treatment from two of the directors at the highgrade headquarters. todd bodine sends the track firmly in the direction of detroit and into some new sonic territory. label boss tom clark sets the focus on the tracks technoid energy and simply lets the groove run away on route to its own destination. avanti avanti, amici!!

hailing from the musical mecca of austin, texas, and following up their brilliant debut album from last year, which featured in our year end top 10, with this already hugely lauded sophomore effort. recorded by the band in their infamous studio/trailer, wailing fuzz guitars, soulful, yearning, emotive vocals, and one of the tightest rhythm sections going provide the currency in which this unique power trio explore their brilliant, unexpected and wide ranging musical ideas. an entirely original, sprawling combination of sixties rock touchstones, free form jazz jamming, and a defiantly post punk spirit, and all performed with a precision, and vibrant intensity not often found on record.

the seventh release of restoration records is the celebration of the love between men and machines. sykon is true joy and happiness, it s the speech of the synthesizers, it s the passion for hardware samplers and sequencers, it s the addiction to the juicy sound of tape compression. as usual, no computer has been involved in the production of this record.
ôyes, the 4th dimensionö, by eduardo de la calle is a masterpiece of hermetic theories applied to advanced minimal techno. it s mental and involving, deep and solid. hi-tech reduced synthesized sound build up a never ending progression upon the strictness of its low tom layer. mystical energy tthat will kidnap everybody on the dancefloor.
in marieu s ôrootsö, you can hear all the trademarks of the boss of the label. dark, hypnotic and pumping, it developes a bouncing double bass line that breaks the atmosphere with an aggressive 808 kick. acid and funky at the same time, it s simply a time bomb.
on side b, lucretio s ôwhere youö is a superb synthesis of his detroit techno and uk-garage influences. relentless effective old-school drums run with a female vocal sample. soulful chords sing along balistic claps. an evocative string line introduces a touch of blues. a sweet sunset on the groove, a smooth weapon.
last but not least, a touch of class by the analogue cops: ôslowlyö. it s a down beat fusion of jazz and deep house. a monumental bass drum bursts a celestial big band interlude. a sexy 303 acid line, an elegant high-hat, a snappy snare. just few things but on the right place. a delight for your mind and for your body.
restoration records are played by djs such as james pennington aka the suburban knight, dj buzz goree, ame, eddie flashin fowkles, alan oldham, rick wade, marcel dettmann, prosumer, steffi, tama sumo, tyree cooper, norman nodge, santiago salazar, pacou, mad max, dj jus ed.

this record is a well thought selection, all tracks are different and individual. its the second release on the berlin based label nights in gale, run by patrick graeser and mike vamp. squalid is made for the big rooms. the big bass, the big bang, the big machine. a saw soothy bass is driving the thing forward. claps. hands. delay. squalid remix by tom dicicco - we are in a dark, intense space, filled with something creepy and sonic. this is very detailed and serious soundscaping music for some mind-searching moments on the floor. the 20 year old tom dicicco from northamptonshire dissects the track like a professional killer. squalid remix by david harrow - now take it away, bring in the step, into the basement. the dub veteran harrow brings all his sound experience into his mix and treats his synths like huskies. others would have made three mixes out of the ideas in this track. nights in gale is meant to support serious music. vinyl only, best quality. artists from berlin, england and the us and more to come. available on 300 limited vinyl copies.

2003 release by style of eye on the classic label run by derrick carter and luke solomon.

charted by gergor tresher further support by: tom stephan, jerome sydenham, noir, atle, djuma soundsystem,.. a: papperlapapp a hit for djs with balls!! as usual from rune rk, this sounds like nothing else. a very catchy melody mashed up with that classic 101 bassline, makes this a monster on the right system. watch out for the buildups, and let the break run through, because thats where this track really shines. btw papperlapapp is german slang for >nonsense<, so the title seems quite fitting :-) b: filter games (rune rk remix) sommerfugl is a butterfly in danish, and thats exactly what this track is.

coming from vendetta, this number 13 is nothing to be afraid of. quite the contrary - put your hands up in the air and scream out loud for gui boratto, mastiksoul and cedric gervais!

shit hot release from the super consistent sex tags crew !! footnotes was the bergen, norway based label run by bjørn torske with only two releases, the late 1997 house classic and collectors item “haribo” by erot and the way too underrated dub-house 12” “farlig fiffus” by krisp. in 2002 the laqcuers for the third release were cut and all ready for the press, but for some obscure reason it never made it to the actual pressing. in the end lacquers were demolished and the mastertape got lost. several years later the mastertape showed up in a tower of old tapes and mastercuts. recovered by the sex tags mania crew, now seven years after it’s origibnal releasedate, doc l junior’s two classic and brilliant house and disco tracks are ready for a proper release. as a tribute, a longing for old days, sex tags mania will releases footnotes 3 in april 2009..

lithuanian producer paulius lincius (aka moon disco) presents his first vinyl release on the respected control tower label, run by the dexorcist & radioactive man, and shows a subtlety and deftness of touch that many more experienced producers would envy. treading the path of classic electro can be a dangerous game if the sounds arent just so, but fortunately paulius has been doing his homework and keeps it simple and clean. radioactive man offers up a remix that roughens things up a little bit and throws some datasette-esque sounds into the equation, but still keeps pretty close to the traditional electro blueprint. overall a strong release for those that prefer their beats and bass with a slightly nostalgic edge...

we once again welcome back diskjokke to the motherpupp after a succesful run of releases on smalltown supersound and kindisch. 2008 was a hectic year for joachim, putting together his live band, doing remixes for metronomy, foals and lykke li to name a few and spreading melodic, trance-inducing feelgood disko gospel around the world. asa nisi masa has been causing much mayhem the last 12 months even causing girls to offer me services i wont mention here...wibbly wobbly arpeggios massaging your buttocks...very very rude indeed as already showcased on the full pupp/greatest tits compilation, >cearadactylus< is definitely a different kind of beast. slow and chugging along at a tempo even fit for dinosaurs

although jaxson and keno both have successful solo projects and have previously worked together before, this collaboration is bound to be their most notable release yet. a fusion of house, funk, latin and techno, all meet at the crossroads of their studios for a 4 track ep of sundry beats and fresh flavors. clearly the a-side, >tout le temps< is comprised of a clever hook and a hazy latino vocal sample, which carries the initial groove right into an originally played synth section. a good example of a refreshing approach to adding effects and using sounds. >tarantella< as the title might suggest, one might expect a track that would scare the living day lights out of you, but it has more of a >creeping up from behind you< sort of vibe. a subtlety creeping groove subliminally enters your unconscious mind carrying a secret message. what is that message you ask? dance! the congas on, >red baron< sound so live you can almost here the players licking their fingers. congas might be the groove in the heart of this tune, but the melody of the slick synth stabs and rising strings are what ultimately breath energy and spunk into this roller. >karate kid< initially has a minimal feel, but once the hacked up guitar and vocals come in, you can put those dirty thoughts to rest. abundant with an overwhelming amount of unique and interesting sounds, secure this tunes ability to prick up the ears of finicky djs and clubbers alike. it is rare to find such a wide variation of sound design on your run of the mill ep, but kindisch has proved they are not an ordinary label. they are consistently releasing quality tunes and always providing pleasant surprises. some might say it is a clichÚ, but this ep really does have a bit of something that will drive one club or another nuts
