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

brut! records baby sister label, pop!, sees its second release with popnonames spaces. an eclectic line-up, including joerg burger, freund der familie and paid for fame, remix the original three times over to offer a varied perspective of the same brave track. revving its engine, spaces drives you to experience things. it invites you to crack yourself open so that through that voluntary rift some new future might pour. bold, beautiful and formless it emerges, washed in a golden light. a baby nebula, perhaps if you are lucky, cradled in the spiral arms of a distant galaxy patiently building mass as it clumps gas and dust together. the important things often creep up silently…recognized only once they are there, even though you had given them no shape in your mind prior to their arrival. space gives possibility to what these forms might be, boundless in four-dimensions. its that expanding medium that allows imagination to roam without end…where the need to distinguish between what you know and invented evaporates and flows pure and clear as an ice cold stream.

the hidden cameras never fail to capture the imagination. orchestrated by leader joel gibb, their live spectacles are unconventional to say the least ? everything from blindfolded band members and string players to go go dancers shimmying alongside gospel choirs. the hidden cameras latest work, origin: orphan, is equally ingenious as the four previous albums.

with smashing contributions by electro lord legowelt from dirty brown the hague and bleep addict garçon taupe from the bourgeois slums of amsterdam, narrominded presents the fourth installment in its renowned split lp series. both sides of this split lp comprise a whole ep in length, and the contributions have in common that they are both deeply rooted in electro music.
on garçon taupes wittenburg ep, eighties infected drum computer beats and heavy bass lines pave the way for some rather cheerful and unpretentious melodies. the five tracks were mixed to tape at rude 66s triple six lounge studio, and reveal influences from electronic pioneers like yellow magic orchestra and mantronix, to todays acid freaks like luke vibert and like a tim. the end result is a catchy mixture of electro and acid.
legowelt explores the darker corners of electronic music in four tracks leaning on eerie vocals and grungy electro beats. his land rovers in astrophysics ep takes us to mysterious environments. we are spacing out on the force of the stars, the universe, etc, and dancing to hypnotic drums on a mystical trip to pago pago west samoa. legowelt not only knows how to to satisfy a dance floor, but is also capable of deeply appealing to the listeners imagination.

dave lambert & housetrap ft. liam south music for peace is this years city parade anthem with huge support from axwell, chuckie, fedde le grand and funkerman, sander van doorn and many more

blasta s saga comes to an end with part 3 of his incredible adventures of kenzolika and quetzalcoatl among the air castles series. the product of an over-active imagination, this series has fused dubstep and post-garage riddims with traces of jazzy easy listening and psyched exotica. the most successful effort here has to be the garage rollidge of black muscatel offset by smooth and dreamy-clean synth keys, while zeppelin nacelle sails off with gently propulsive garage bass and trip42 brings the story to an end with down pitched dubstep beats subsiding into sunset 303s.

born in chile but raised in sweden, alexi delano already released for such label as plus8, m_nus, spectral or trapez. with this release on davide squillaces label he shows to not miss imagination, >girls on bike< and >digital downtown< are two colourful sexy and crazy tracks already supported by such artist as karotte, brett johnson, nic fanciulli and many more

behind this german-sounding pseudonym hides a lyrical, subtle and ambitious techno. mondkopf reveals on this ep his most federative facet with a tracklist in which immediacy never sacrifices imagination. this combination of a techno basis, trancy hooks and electronica sound processing make these nuits sauvages (wild nights) ambivalent, conquering and melancholy. la dame en bleu, his major piece, is already an underground hymn. les oiseaux de balthazar, mixes vocal pads, bells and birdcalls in a fantasy techno universe on a dynamic tempo. the result, once again, sounds absolutely unique. nuit sauvage softens the layers to emphasis on crunchy riffs and strong kicks, to finally come back to an epic dimension, always around in mondkopfs songs. remix side, matzak got hold of the very mental christmas, keeping its electro spirit.

slang bang is benno blome, the head of sender, and pan/tone aka sid le rock. the duo delivers powerful tracks combining force and restraint with a wicked imagination. >amaaazing< for example sets the records tone with an aura of mystery, creeping like a secret agent on muted, methodical beats, as buzzing synths and foggy atmospheres round out the film noir effect

played by luciano, lauhaus, kabale & liebe and many more. its about time! with >channel by channel< markus homm presents his first solo ep on highgrade. until now, this cosmopolitan citizen of the world, who shares his time between hong-kong, moscow, london and nuremberg – has been part of the successful collaboration: homm & popoviciu. one vinyl ep and three digital releases have already made a strong impression with the highgrade faithful. with this ep and its four groovey house tracks, markus homm signals the springtime. the title track >channel by channel< already foreshadows where this journey will end: fleet footed rhythms meet sweet chords and result in a sunny house groover that immediately kills the winter blues >torn< on the flipside is also built around an irresistible melody, while >xpander< (b2) gets things moving a little faster towards the end. proving again, how skillfully markus homm can create a deep groove from his handpicked melodic elements. it doesnt need much imagination to understand that these three classy tracks will bring their euphoric impact to every dancefloor they touch. thanks for letting the springtime roll, mr. homm!

the kat label starts off 2009 with this second volume of 3 more killer soul/disco/funk remakes here from chicagos disco master dj rahaan - with tracks from herbie mann, kokomo and juggy jones!!

continuing the spectacle that is the poker flat tournament series, we present two more surefire lessons in dancefloor mechanics. after his last storming >zeitgeist e.p< for poker flat, londons very own dark knight raudive aka oliver ho has crafted a powerfully hypnotic club tool that truly exists within its own world of unique and unmistakable sound. carefully executed beats roll forward as an astounding landscape of colourful vocal suggestions and emotions swirl and evolve. its a heady, uncompromising track that certainly stands out as its own, but could complement many different dj situations, from driving peak time sets, to free-flowing after-hours sessions… heading up the opposition for looks set to be a fine tournament indeed, minimise head-honcho and continual key-player donnacha costello brings things down and dirty with his unforgiving and foreboding >i must be going<. a catchy proto-acidic bass line snakes a winding path through a dense atmosphere of late-night paranoia. perfectly crafted beats push the energy along with a casual swagger, whilst the pleasingly tripped out vocal undertones leave the imagination to run wild

ianus71….is a newborn project by system of survival (lasergun / freak n chic / tenax / vinylclub), amor t and dellis. behind this aliases there is a team of european djs, producers, >professional music enthusiasts< based in london / ibiza whose aim is to create and promote new music. this first release, naturelle ep, sees the label trying to infuse a new attitude into the modern dance scene by injecting musicality and inspirational good feelings back into a scene which has become oversaturated with monotony and a lack of imagination. system of survivals vast array of influences infuse naturelle ep

another full blown rave up from the label that proves that wonky can be not only fun, but also successful! last releases have all sold like hot cakes, and if you check out the tracks on here its easy to see why. quality genre-smashing bombs through and through, all that is required here is a bit of imagination. if youve got 7 zillion tracks to choose from on your laptop, why play all the same ones as everyone else? club killers everyone, from mustard gunn vs onkens humanoid esque take no prisoners to the onkens rave break attack of possession of ganja, and from the stomping hoover frenzy of lukes angers clodhopper to jerome hills hardcore sample a thon tickle the bee (a tribute).open your mind and get sick!!!

split ep of dark metallic hard-fun from the human shield mixing funnel. manasyt leaves his manners at home and takes the a side by force with two solid cuts of pure industrial horror: wrist sewing leaves little to the imagination whilst his bloc 08 set opener vibro speeds up the synth suspense until your loins are sore and your mind is truly spent. overworked and underpaid north wales bedroom musician cestrian (bunker/monox) softens the blow just a bit on the reverse with his hearse giving you the perfect funeral, driving off into the near distance with dead waves and metallic shards of fluctuating hiss. the stately anti funk of rizzla teeth brings us to a conclusion with gun metal grey sneers of contempt and harrowing neg vibe downer skree. suit up and dig in!

for his new album, heretic pride, darnielle has once more retreated into his imagination to conjure a suite of songs about mythical creatures, imaginary cults, slasher films and pulp fiction novelists. hes also come up with some of the most anthemic,impassioned and downright catchy songs of his career: sax rohmer, autoclave and lovecraft in brooklyn join a long line of glorious mountain goats shouters, they ll doubtless have audiences raising the roof at venues around the world in the coming months.

incl remix by h.o.s.h.!! played by james holden, ripperton, phonique, someone else, stephan bodzin, mark august, sian. lucy builds up a menacing wall of sound in just under 8 minutes, inspiring the listeners imagination, like >summery drumming< before. oscillating melodies and strings condense to a dark blade runner type scenario, driven by a crystal clear snare drum

huge package of remixes here. styles vary from techhouse via minimal to straight techno. mixes by josh surman, genna greene, frankie vegas and punisher

funky detroit flavoured old school tech !!

this is an amazing piece of funked up, forward thinking techno that will appeal to both the house jocks as the techno heads. dejan is probably best known from his appearances on adult and orion (danilo vigoritos label!). he sticks to what he does best and pushes the envelope and he has your imagination go wild!

alan master t is known for his remixes on famous funk classics from imagination, earth wind and fire or michael jackson.... his last inspiration is a reconstruction work on people hold on by lisa stansfield. signed to paradise records, this elekto version with remixes of dim chris and michael kaiser is on the way to be one of the tracks of the winter!

alphahouse welcomes kai to the family, with the dazzling 3-track ep >gakuon< his debut release came last year on portables sud electronic label, and put him on our ones-to-watch list. now kai delivers his second ep and its a killer. with so much music in the world following the same patterns, and producers sucked into using the same cheap tricks in the studio, its refreshing to hear that some people out there are still capable of independent and abstract thought. we hope you agree. >ac< is a mutant deep techno piece equally suitable for dark club mayhem as it is for sunday brunch with the in-laws. seriously, try it out at both places and if it doesnt work the next beer is on us. >spacetravel< is exactly that. a micro-sampled ride though the cosmos. tiny vocal spurts and playful melodies surround a throbbing bassline. stripped just to the groove and not over-arranged, theres plenty of room to let your imagination roam free. >gravity< is one of those special inside tracks that we search so long and hard for. delightfully simplistic, yet incredibly groovy. its amazing how much you can do with a few well-placed sounds, isnt it?

alejandro mosso, aka funzion, was born in mendoza, argentina in 1983. a student of guitar and music theory since he was 14, he started his solo minimal house/techno project >funzion< in 2003. his aim is to combine the production techniques of idm and clicks and cuts with the rhythmicalbforms of techno and microhouse. the result thus far has been a tricky, warm and energetic sound that has caught the attention of highly regarded labels such as telegraph, sushitech, and now alphahouse. funzions >stelle< ep consists of two warm, intricate, and percussive club stompers that showcase his grasp on complex rhythms and playful melodies. >random kisses< is a moody vocal excursion into the mountains of your imagination. a meandering track that suits open air parties as well as it does big dark discos, this is a spring season hit. >random love< starts out as a charming shuffley ballad, only to subtly morph into a looming synth rave monster, all the while keeping its playful and hypnotizing grip on the dancefloor. bomb alert!

premium techno label audio assault is still spreading its wings and gathers more and more f ollowers across planet earth. many years now the masterminds bas mooy and jeroen liebregts have guarded the imprints pure underground vibe and mechanical roughness with their life. both men are established as solo producers and as part of various collabs. the most recent collaboration is the one of jeroen liebregts and laurens v an der starre as radial. their stunningly powerf ul sound has triggered the imagination of many.you are witnessing the birth of a mind blowing, solid concept. topped with two class a mixes f rom bas mooy and uk legend paul mac

julio navas and david amo (main responsibles) of fresco records strike alone again. if you remember memory cell, electronic electro, pressure, alto voltaje or open your eyes, you will not forget this new release. every time they join forces with other producers they create big tracks but when they work alone their imagination flows to other limits modelling other ways to understand and feel the electronic house music. pamtomaket and allioli are 2 very popular courses from catalonia (barcelona), they want to do a tribute to their country doing 2 really amazing tracks !!! >pamtomaket<: a big big big bassline makes the dancefloor go crazy. b-side >allioli<: overwhelming track. basic instincts make this track have the best results with people

second part of the collaboration between the great dj butane and roman,photo…this volume is still serious and deep but with more groove and functionality than the previous one (rp02) , specialy with the track >detained with bruno<. anyway too much words are not necessary, music of butane is really suggestive and really good for your imagination…so the best is just listen, dance and maybe dream with >techno for whirrled peas volume 2<. volume one was supported by artists such as luciano, troy pierce and lars sandberg !! for this ep confirmed support from: chloe, geoffroy mugwump, jennifer cardini, mike shannon, troy pierce (minus, underline)

this huge release is a must for fans of their we are & syndikaat releases! zahn and eidolon manage to crush the minimal trend into a ball and throw it back at the masses

modernist ep #1 shows just why woolford is currently being hailed as the best producer in his genre right now from the likes of pete tong, francois kevorkian, mr c et al. woolfords current >erotic discourse< is being hailed as one of those tracks that has captured the imagination of both house and techno djs alike. .and so onto modernist #1, and whilst woolford nods to the past on title track 313, the arrangement and structure of the infectious cut is as modern as electronic dance gets right now. on part one, warm and lush pads herald an epic 11 minute production that twists and turns, all the while keeping the solid groove flowing. part two on the flip presents a rawer and heavier take, the driving cowbell rhythm, snaking synth line and sub bass will cause much devastation

mystic and spiritual electronica dedicated to the memory of terence mickenna !!

by lance desardi also known as landshark. this time out, under the moniker tiburon he throws you down into the darkest corners of his heavily stretched imagination. the rawest drum patterns and grittiest electro basslines back up by nastily distorted vocals hinting at the possibilty of an increasingly tortured escape. if you have escaped side a unscathed, head straight for the flip for a funkier driving instrumental mission. keep your hands on the wheel for this one though as there are plenty of sharp turns and curves leading you through a state of profound unconsciousness, coma

greyscale s 25th full length album comes from one of our most favorite and longtime label guests. who else? but, gradient! all and all, this is his 4th album with us and each album seems to just get better and better. similar to previous albums, each track is named in numerical order after a word taken from the album s name. while this makes it a bit more difficult to remember which track is which it also leaves everything up to your own imagination. there is no visual to these heavy techno focused tracks.

after excursions into hip hop, rap and film music austrian producer and musician urbs has returned to the downtempo and triphop styles that were the cornerstones of his most successful work, discovering his very own niche along the way. using obscure samples as well as traditional instrumentation for his impressionistic instrumental pieces he takes us to „geheimland“, the secret land of our imagination...

too slow to disco neo presents a sunny compilation of smooth sunset disco - 16 exclusive tracks on cd.

for the past two years, nils frahm has been building a brand new studio in berlin to make his 7th studio album titled all melody, which will be released on january 26th, 2018 via erased tapes, before nils embarks on his first world tour since 2015.
since the day nils first encountered the impressive studio of a family friend, he had envisioned to create one of his own at such a large scale. fast forward to the present day and nils is now the proud host of saal 3, part of the historical 1950s east german funkhaus building beside the river spree. it is here where he has spent most of his time deconstructing and reconstructing the entire space from the cabling and electricity to the woodwork, before moving on to the finer elements, building a pipe organ and creating a mixing desk all from scratch with the help of his friends. this is somewhere music can be nurtured and not neglected, and where he can somewhat fulfil his pursuit of presenting music to the world as close to his imagination as possible.

since jim coles took on the mantle of om unit, the english producer has sought to challenge himself and his audience by going beyond the confines of genres and styles he has so far explored. in the process he has found success by striving for more feeling, for a more human and daring electronic music. this journey continues with ÔselfÕ, colesÕ third album as om unit and a true follow-up to his 2013 debut ÔthreadsÕ.
ÔselfÕ captures coles in a period of growth, change, and experimentation. inspired by personal psychological and emotional healing work, and a vision of the self as an egg Ñ which coles later on discovered is a jungian archetype Ñ the album blends dubwise, bass-heavy music with the space of experimental ambient compositions and the daring imagination of a cold wave science fiction soundtrack.
the first om unit album on colesÕ own cosmic bridge label, ÔselfÕ offers new forms amid familiar touches. stripping away what people might expect, coles deconstructed and reimagined his work so far as a challenge to himself and, in turn, to his fans.
