welcome to rebel intelligence - the new label is ready to make you pop like it was 1984 all over again! their first single is by the uks matt whitehead, one half of signal type (along with phil bolland on the cultivated electronics label) and captures the style of early electro funk in all it s analogue glory. so good! the a sides >beat the heat< is the more pacey of the two tracks here, constantly building with vintage synth stabs and the true feeling of electro, reminding us of harold faltermeyer and all those cats so heavy influenced by kraftwerk. on the flip, >tuff city< combines classic b-boy sounds and punchy drum programming to create an authentic listening experience that will make you want to get your lino out and bust some moves. highly recommended.

olmeto, a small town in corsica, is infamous as the birthplace of the family vendetta. we chose the name as it has an air of mystery but also a bit of fire. we felt that we wanted a label with us as the only artists free to do what we want, how we wantà this is release number 23. all have been ours, and range across the house spectrum, vocal, minimal, tech and deep and probably a little of each in all. the raw road and madagaskar whilst different, are made from the same mood. a strong rhythm with elements brought in and out, like a good dj, you lock the groove and then begin to play around it. although all tracks are by us, we do bring in artists we like to remix from time to time. the raw road will be remixed by mark broom and nic fanciullli and they will join artist such as loco dice, green velvet and unkle who have both remixed tracks over the course of the label.

daniel mehlhart is an aficionado. that would explain the cosy buzz emblazoning his >coming close<. the deep bass adept prepares some tasty meal here, just like an accomplished cook, pecking only the best ingredients for his versatile tracks. two soulflul clappers are the radiant result, featuring tenderly restored sequences and carefully tailored samplework. gabriel ananda shows off impeccable taste by firing up the robot beatbox for his remix, tuckpointing the sounds so well, that one might want to rub his ears due to so much rapture. three masterbuilders ftw

this special release is dedicated to detroit dj legend ken collier. his untimely passing touched me personally as he was one of a small few who supported my music and me. because of ken collier, detroit developed a dance scene, which inspired artists & producers to make dance records, which gave birth to techno, which has provided careers for so many of you in the business today. so i dare ask all you techno producers, djs, record labels, record shops, clubs which play techno music and fans of techno to pay respect to ken collier just as you would our other fine music innovators. however, this special compilation isn t about techno, it s about h.o.u.s.e sound - broadcasting it to you from live inside the st-er-eo. this record contains no artist or track listing because i don t want this to be about who made the tracks, track titles, or even who wrote this commentary. this is my personal tribute to him, and how he has motivat ed me to make my contributions to house music. thank you ken collier, for helping me grow, not just as a dj or a record producer, but also as a person. every dj and dance artist here in detroit owes thanks to you for going out into the musical forest, chopping down trees and paving the way for us to build house.

tensnake has been hamburgs best-kept secret. has been! past 12inchs for labels like radius, mirau (which he co-runs) or his gorgeous >keep believin< three-tracker for endless flight speak louder than words. on top he delivered all these nice remixes for the likes of junior boys ( fm÷ is theee one), sally shapiro or more recently toby tobias on rekids. firmly rooted in new yorks sweaty boogie dreams and with a soft spot for dazzling house music, >in the end< stays true to tensnakes juicy techniques and pleases our friends and colleagues (radio slave, robet dietz, prins thomas, gilbr, mark e) alike. we start off with a courageous house tune that has all the qualities of an a-side and concisely defines the dilemma of lovers: in the end someone always has to cry. but as long as it sounds like a cutty ranks rocket launcher, we want test it. the other side of the medal features >holding back my love< a slow-motion disco robot bomb with a crooning tensnake on the mic that makes everyone feel happy like they should. finally, >thethenunknown< somehow melts the moodiness of early factory records (think a certain ratio with a little finger exercise) with the atmosphere of kenneth dixon jr.s >misled< - one for the heart, soul and your headphones. at least, gerd feels and thinks like that. speaking of feelings. if downloads are your thing, you can get the digital bonus track >can you feel it< at all the usual spots. how is that for a change? this guy aint a blindschleiche

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.

played and featured already by many artists like takkyu ishino, chris liebing, frank müller, laurent garnier, carsten schorr, gel abril etc...

since its foundation in the year 1995, reykjaviks gus gus are working hard to make this world a less boring place. initially tagged by the press as the next big icelandic music export after bjoerk, the band swept away all cliche thinking with their highly infectuous metrosexual multimedia pop and secured themselves a deal with the prestiguous 4ad label. &#8233,,,since then a lot of hot water has been ejected by icelands geysers but gus gus miraculously always managed to combine avantgarde with pop, soul and of most prominently - with electronic music. especially with their furious live shows they ve earned themselves a devoted following worldwide. &#8233,,,&#8233,,,this years september will bring us the release of their sixth studio album that goes by the name 24/7. at this point, we dont want to let too much of the cat out of the bag but its certainly right to say that they ve once more reinvented themselves and the result is truely breathtaking. as we re convinced that the world-embracing harmonies and impeccable catchiness of add this song should be heard during this summer season, so we ve decided to already share this with you now. &#8233,,,&#8233,,,the remixes all sound as excellent as their producers: patrick chardronnet, lopazz & zarook and gluteus maximus...

listeners who are familiar with the ex-bizarre inc and chicken lips man s previous material will know exactly what to expect from andy meecham s latest record. the staffordshire-based producer wears his penchant for vintage analogue synthesizers firmly on his sleeve, creating a melange of hard-hitting disco beats and throbbing cosmic melodies. entitled space beyond the egg, the album sees meecham exploring a few new territories, with the swinging kananana even featuring a catchy vocal hook, marking it out from his previously instrumental solo material. prepare yourself for plenty of strutting and shuffling percussion as well as mindbending synth workouts that should send you firmly into space when the record drops in june.

apendics.shuffle’s elegance & malice ep has been reworked by two great talent’s the master of minimalism thomas melchior & ransom note’s adultnapper, both artists have expressed there interpretations to the highest order. adultnapper has taken a darker path, raw & steady drums keep you grounded whilst disassembled voices and eary strings make you realize things are going to get weird. there is a constant hook in the background that sounds like the noise of a sleeping monster but as it gets louder you know it’s about to wake and it does, throwing you backwards in a totally different direction. melchior’s remix takes you on a different journey one that you never want to end. lush melodic sound’s and stunning percussion with deep soulful vocals keep growing and growing drawing you ever nearer all the time never letting you go.

it may have been fate that erphun s very first gig was on halloween, because his music is brooding, pounding, moody and transformative, as if from another realm entirely. his ability to build a mood is mesmerizing and transports the listener to that alternate spiritual level that his moniker infers. having spun around california with residencies for naked, flirt and hotel california and playing at 1015 folsom (san francisco), sevilla (las vegas), broadway (san diego), voodoo lounge (las vegas), risqu (las vegas, new year s eve 2004), and the shelbourne hotel (miami, winter music conference), erphun began to make his mark. erphun s music has been spun in clubs all over the world and is succinctly summed up by steve lawler as a deep, dark and underground unique sound that trademarks his pieces. with early releases on ingrooves, and ascension records followed by releases on viva music oliver klein s mutekki and audio therapy, his name is now instantly recognizable among the tech-house, minimal, techno world of spinning producers who globe trot his compositions to be dropped on every conceivable audience. the reaction of the listener to his slow, driving builds that weave between the almost symphonic-like movements of each of his pieces is always jaw dropping and is usually followed by an exclamatory siiiiiick! . erphun is also a highly sought after re-mixer for artists who want to hear the 4am version of their pieces. the only way to really experience this immense talent is to see him in action. a night of erphun s making heightens the listener s musical aesthetic and aurally illustrates his personal musical vision

dojo is about getting back to the roots of american techno and house, and getting away from the computer. we want to help bring back the spontaneity and freedom of live performance and recordings. we want to celebrate the raw physicality of the music, and the dj who still likes to mix. ross since, 1997, ross has been in the background of the westcoast canadian techno scene, particularly the victoria family that included mathew jonson, cobblestone jazz, the mole, and hrdvsion. in 1998, he released the now out-of-print compilation album ôgarden city dubs, that featured first material by mathew jonson, and cobblestone jazz. he left for california in æ98, but kept his finger on the pulse as the art director for itiswhatitis recordings. while in the bay area, he listened mostly to soul,rap and early american techno music. heavily influenced by his time spent in the u.s., he started to develop a musical aesthetic, which he is now ready to express. young florent florent moved to vancouver from switzerland to attend art school. he began to get into making techno. tapping into his french-martinique roots, florent quickly developed a unique sound, which caught rossÆs ear. a few live jams later, it was clear that they worked well together, so they got a studio space and got to work. one month later, dojo had its first release. florent has only been making music for a year, but his swiss work-ethic is dangerous
