one time proprietor of the infamous atlas records shop in soho, london over a decade ago, pete herbert divides his time these days either behind the wheels of steel at clubs and parties around europe or in the studio working solo or with friends on their various musical projectsàhe is found regularly behind the decks at places such as fabric,mondos, goa, cafe capitol playing out an unexpected mix of balearic leftfield disco/house/italo/dub/funk and beyond!! building up a dj reputation in parisian underground circles, doing parties with jef k, chloe, alexkid and ivan smagghe, working the dancefloor but also developing his skills in the studio, tim paris had his first breakthrough with the remix of a rock tune called >future now< that became one of the biggest underground tunes of 2004. from there tim paris didn t stop but continued to release quality tracks and remixes. the two come together as >challenge<, on tim s imprint marketing music, the follow up to their 2008 release together on kompakt >zimmer<. just a few chords into the track, and its obvious to hear - the broken clock e.p. has been too long coming... >broken clock< - featuring homemade guitar riffs by none-other than mr. paris himself...! >wind up< follows with its more organic appeal, featuring some wicked synths... and finally, >wind up genius of time remix< will suit your palate indefinitely. genius of time, aka >cloud< from gothenburg, sweden... pushes the hands of father time to the reference point in early house, the vocals are pushed to the front to build us up into a hazy groove, that you wish could go on forever...

supplement facts records takes us to that detroit sound, with their next release featuring sierra sam & marcus vector… the auteurs of industrial techno. the man made jobs e.p. is an eager little package of tracks with a nod to the past, but with its sight set straight to the future. the opener >gangsta pimp style< echoes technos birth-city, driving beats and metallic stabs of synths merging with the spoken word rhetoric, intermittently making itself known throughout the pieces sprawling 7-minute runtime. >things you do< moves things to a bit lighter frame, but dont let that description lull you into thinking it as throwaway. this tracks dominates with the ever-present high stringnote that made so many hits in the past. this classic sensibility and a vocal hook which you will be humming for days later…make this track memorable. taking us straight to the 90s, >flagboy< is the final track to round up this powerhouse of a release. featuring vocals from rockey wahington, this track encompasses the likeability & flavor needed for a classic house record unlikely to leave your bag. its all there - the piano stabs, the cowbells, the soulful vocal. all these elements mixing together to create a track so euphoric that you can finally delete your >pusher-man< contact from your blackberry because this is the newest legal high!

praezisa rapid 3000 are robert guschel, david junghans and henrik jacobsen. coming from different styles of music they found each other to start making music. loving techno, drum & bass, dubstep and indie they created the praezisa-sound: complex, harmonic, organic, which eradiates quickness through native instruments. in doing so there is much humor in this supposed to be earnest music. this ep tries to depict the spectrum of what the three guys love: from bass-music to easy listening – and house: good guy mikesh & filburt, known through releases on permanent vacation, liebe*detail and mirau give the debut of praezisa rapid 3000 a remix.

we lost track of rocco branco nearly 5 years ago. no >goodbye<, nothing, he simply vanished off the grid. a few days ago, mr. branco staggered into the hirsch camp, smelling of sex and jaegermeister, no explanation. no apologies. rocco simply handed over two tracks, turned around, and walked away... diamant captures the sex of a one-night stand. a metaphysical launch pad of selfindulgence. no compromises, purely physical, firm and purposeful – precisely how we like our techno. gibbon depicts sex with a lover – reminiscent of gratifications past. familiar, nubile and polished a mastered motion of lustful appetite. in roccos return, we find a record of lifes carnal moments. good hunting!

we have never done a project like this before where the artists choose all the remixers themselves. but for the crazy italoboyz album >bla bla bla< we found ourselves not really knowing what to do. so instead of forcing our own ideas for remixers we went back to the source and let the artists run wild on the a&r. marco and fede commissioned all the remixers themselves. the producers they chose are a very diverse bunch and the vinyl 12inch takes a sampling of the best material from two very big underground names. on the a-side das kraus duo turn it a super jackin yet also very haunting rendition of >oh mio dio.< it sounds like pitched up chicago house meets demon days. on the b-side old school master dandy jack turns in one of the oddest records ever on mothership with some unusual sound design, voices and semi-dischordant note runs. super weird for the super weird! whatever you think of this odd lot no one can deny these remixes definitely carry the indistinguishable mark of that ever so quirky duo, the italoboyz
