>read my mind< is the first full-on vocal track to actually be released by metro area (they had amassed a small catalog of unreleased vocal tracks since starting the project). featuring the incredible pipes of philip owusu (of ubiquity records owusu & hannibal), >read my mind< is a dynamic boogie romp full of contrast: sweet yet meloncholy, warm yet raw. it hearkens back to the days where songwriting and arrangement still had a place in dance music and we hope youll love it. and for the beat purists, theres an irresistible >rmm special dub< version - perfect for doubles! flipping to the b-side yields >erodyne<- an incredible space-disco epic that rocks time and space, looking forward with angular arpeggiated riffs and futurist moods while anchored by an undeniably d.i.s.c.o. groove. check out metro area 7 and be transported - hot music, built to last!

coming up with a mixture of drumfunk elements, dubstep vibes and old school sounds, martsman is the new kid on the block that will prove you wrong if you thought youve heard it all in drum & bass. >kontamin< is a journey back to the good old days when jungle didnt have the obligation for constant climax that is found in most drum & bass tunes today

untitled flow, is an hypnotic, brave and electronically bouncing track full of pride, which answers the question seldom asked these days, what was hip hop actually all about - both musically and regarding its content? “untitled flow, revamped with italy’s own mario pagliari complimenting this remix on sync with a nice edgy and slick bass tone driven beat that marks the impressive return of a voice, a woman, trained journalist, mother, singer and prize-winning poetess.

distant musics jon cutler delivers a devastating remix of jovonns losin my mind for the next release on coco soul. jon keeps things deep and heavy whilst sonically reminiscing back to days of cut up acid house vocals and wild pitch string arrangements. losin my mind was the b side to jovonns genre defying neptune released earlier this year on coco soul.

zimmermann alias jens zimmermann aka tyrell corp. aka dj gargamel is constantly changing yet always the same: a damn good producer. from his early days when he whipped up tracks by culture beats and out of the ordinary into dancey frenzy with well-known german producer torsten fenslau, to his drum n bass-fuelled moments of technical innovation, jens has never been one to stand still. constantly reinventing hilmself, he always managed to keep things ticking, making him one of the most sought-after producers in the late eighties and throughout the nineties. now, in 2007, after years of noise research and sound sculpting, he is re-emerging as zimmermann which stands for >new german minimal sound<. after three much-celebrated releases, aptly called zimmermann #1, #2 and #3 on room recordings, which were severely hyped up by germany s house fraternity, and releases and remixes on boxersport, k2,and hifreaks as well as on harthouse mannheim, the future is looking bright for jens

nation is back!! a double a side release by x2 (house not house) and xxart (the moment). its the usual suspects turning the knobs and pushing the faders again... (traxx, j.t.c. dmarc cantu) for some pure raw jacking house music (or jaking as they say). tracks inspired by the music box in chicago... the legendary place where all heads went back in the days. >the moment< is a simple track with an effective bassline and quick vocals... very playfull! >house not house< is a powerfull sci-fi trip with a robust acid bassline and a blasting ms20 and old schoolish keyboard strings. back to the basics.. back to the music that makes you jak. (dont sleep on this one... limited to 500 copies and no digital downloads!)

as hard as it might be to believe, there was a time when the word trance did not mean dutch guys dressed in white wearing oakleys.. it also didn t mean israeli pre-military dragon-stick wielding reefer addicts.. actually, there was a glorious era where trance was a verb rather than a noun.. im talking about when you got in a trance, at lets say for example: the golden eagle in munich in 81, in a white-tiled sauna-motif discotec, grooving to a 17 minute reel-to reel version of knights in white satin on your 2nd bottle of poppers while some guy named >wolfie< takes his modern ballet skills to the >next level<. if that sounds appealing.. and i know it does.. then allow me to introduce you to compuphonic and kolombo.. a throwback to the days of romance-trance of the highest order. deep, sensual (yes, i used the word sensual) electronic grooves so potent that we were forced by a coalition of competitors labels to only release some of them digitally to restrict their awesome power to trip people out. these tracks make other tracks seem like mindless shallow shit. that includes some of turbos other releases.

danny and sa manage to merge techno & minimal sounds into a perfect blend! the result is a minimal, pumping melodic track ready to knock you off you feet. on the b-side a more rave-ish track that reminds of the early days

tango saty is a crazy dancer from klaus schulze. sounds huge on 12 inch and causes a storm of freaky dancing on the more discerning dancefloors with a wonky yet eminently groovy rhythmic structure and synth brass riffs that echo around in your head for days. when the bass drops its smiles all round. b shock r.e.r.b. is a classic piece of doomy yet uplifting cosmic elettro from london town that was a baldelli and loda play. getting increasingly hard to find on the original 12 inch and even if you do, this one is mastered with more weight and clarity

the 6 track ep nothing special opens with ryralio djs deep and funky original version from their studio in kaunas, lithuania. chicago house godfather johnny fiasco, who actually stood at the roots of all of it, added dubbed, driving and acidic musical touch to the release by his remix tonic mix. johnnys productions are sweet as roses, but bite as the hedgerow thorns. from still sunny california, comes the moody sure is special version of the track by om records talent rithma.and finally, you will be able to take a ride through moody baltic lands, with rigas finest bandmasters flight duo (amber muse, r2 records) providing the deep house version of nothing special. it is a subtle touch of chilled grooves and melodic sounds. at the very end ryralio welcomes lithuanian house whiz kid, who made great debut on reelgroove records in the very last days of 2006 and who just finished remix for lenny fontana & byron stingly track i ll give you. please welcome santi touch and his santi special version colored by breaky, funky and electro influences

excellent release by one of the most revolutionary artists for deep house in spain, his name, jesus gonsev from cuidad real. the manchego native rounds out the tenth vinyl release of house cafe music with a definitive american sound from the early 90s. the future of this artist looks bright as he is poised to release more records on soul cafe music from south africa and gotta keep faith records. next to me, the title track of this ep brings memories of the productions of steve bug or gamat 3000 from the dessous glory days, lots of groove with simple elements which make it both mixab le and danceable. so deep, has already garnered the attention of house legends such as larry heard and ame, who have already included this track in their sessions.
