permanent vacation are delighted to bring you the second chapter of the first space oddities saga compiled by alexis le-tan (music journalist and member of the tigersushi bass system) and jess (formerly of the famed french house duo jess & crabbe and now drummer for punk band 10lec6). the pair met in 2001 through a mutual love of no-wave and leftfield disco. in 2003 jess came upon a big collection of library music, which he bought for next to nothing. whilst he was ciphering through it and finding the most interesting extracts, alexis was digging in all things cosmic, where along the way he also started to pick up many bits and pieces of obscure mood musics. in 2007, they put together some of their best space disco treasures giving birth to the highly acclaimed space oddities project released last july. as the first episode of space oddities was reaching to an end and following the amazing feedback they received, the parisian duo started working on the next volume in the heat of 2008’s sunny days. a new direction was chosen: more organic, guitar lead and psychedelic than the previous one, still focusing on the dancefloor and their love for freaky synths and fierce beats.

breakdance has all the early electro hip hop influences but santos brings a classic sound bang up to date. oldskool drum sounds groove alongside acid bleeps, crunchy synths and squelchy bass. any b boy or b girl will be body popping along to this for sure. its been included on a new elite force compilation for lot 49 due out in november so its looking to be a biggie already. the echobox is a proper twisted club banger that is purely designed for peak time devastation. the tribal groove is crushed to bits as are most of the elements, which is a recipe for intense gritty head twisting.

better known as volum and as one half of angry robots volsoc (his musical partnership with justin maxwell), jean-paul bondys output to date has often been categorised as electro, but not as we know it, jim. since the early 90s bondy has been bringing us his vision of a cartoon future of blips, bleeps, squeaks and tweaks, all fed through your speakers and straight into your brain by a rhythmic salvo of breakbeats, bass, and straight-up, glitched-up funk.. bondys first solo album, >the path of most resistors< marks the culmination of this effort to date, while at the same time representing a subtle departure – not just for bondy, but for compost too. make no mistake, this is a record that is grounded in the kind of solid, machine funk grooves, synthetic melodies and sci-fi atmospheres that the best electro has always brought us

played by: ricardo villalobos, luciano, magda, dan curtin, zip,.. its been a great year soo far for the talented mr. haze, as he continues to push the boundries of electronic dance music. this record is a clear cut example of why things started to get real, real hot all of a sudden. with this special release, jay s first release on the label he started 7 years ago - jay translates what it is like to be >big pimping< in berlin, germany. jay moved to the electronic music mecca just 3 years ago and has steadily advanced through one of the most competitive market places with lightining speed. so in some sense this record >berlin pimping part2< is another fond dedication record to the city which provides soo much for jay. (the first was jay s record on german label musik krause >berlin pimpin/love affair<)

mobilee is on >back to back< mission and presents the first release of a four-piece vinyl remix series including eight exclusive in-house remixes. a - sebo k reworks gummihz s >isolate<. he just took the essential >rave signal<, modified the groove and added some spezial effects. the most reduced sebo k production so far. aa - prosumer gets the upper hand on sebo k, recreating the latter s >moved (featuring prosumer)< in prosumer s own image. and you thought dude was just a singer - think again. >think again< might as well be mobilee s motto, for the way the label lays bare the skeleton of rave music—and the way it amplifies berlin minimal into something throbbing, overwhelming, all-consuming. watch your back: mobilee is coming up from behind, and back to back is the rearview image of the shape of rave to come

troy pierce (aka louderbach, slacknoise and one third of run stop restore with magda and marc houle) unleashes one of the year s most anticipated tracks with >25 bitches<. the original track goes back a while, coming into creation as a joke composed while stuck waiting in an airport. not like humor is never ever a part of troy s music or persona, 25 bitches has been knocking down doors in his & fellow djs sets like magda and richie hawtin since last fall. pierce s bass-heavy mix starts of full of dark ghosts, working into a dub bassline and surgical mix of effects and vocals

the house invaderz are in the place !! part.3 of the house invaderz serie and another megablaster 12inch !!! exun s superstar dj linus arrives straight from munich with this mentally challenged minimal echno anthem. >mind your head< is the perfect track to play with >afterblaster<, the hit from alexkid & chloé (hybr1201) - it reminds me of the 1995-97 era.the inner track is from mr.barcode who is none other than jay tripwire, canada s most prolific house producer of all time and on the flip you ll find two tracks, one from drd which will remind you when you was playing race games in the mid 80s and da fresh who try to beat the hi score one more time with a dancefloor peaktime filler as usual
