after several months of hard video- and filmwork, and several awards, french-vietnamese cutie tk.kim aka. pop-3 will finally release some new tracks, on vinyl and online, and by the way, she promised to release more stuff in 2009! so, the new release, chicks and cuts, with 8 tracks online and a 4-track vinyl 12, is definitely dancy, clubby and loud. definitely in the tradition of pop-3s former releases, that never perfectly fitted a precise music category and prove that tk.kim still refuses to be house, tec or minimal. shes all of them or none of them. and what does chicks and cuts sound like, then? boomy squeaking analog sequences combined with delicious samples of her sweet voice will delight the dancefloor, lo-fi audio splinters coming out of old analog drummachines play something like very reduced melodies, and well shaped bassdrums and deep synths will delight your tummies. the very minimal lyrics are in french, as usual. and, goodie: sonja moonear and akiko kiyama contribute with amazing remixes to this fine girls-only oeuvre, rhythmical and minimal but still very harmonious the one by akiko, deep and mysterious the one by sonja. and by the way, the cover is really sweet, people say.

alex bau aka basic implant says >only the hard ones!< and virgil enzinger is following that path. check it, its really real!

hard and storming 5-tracker

its funky, deep, hard and clanking? its another 4x4-release!

the next installment from the new beyond imprint is with us, featuring two newcomers from the thriving us underground, kapuchon & benny rodriques. the pair bring a magical detroit infused collection of warm, urgent and modern house music into our peripheral vision where its simply hard to ignore … like a well loved vintage drum machine tweaked to perfection, or a dusty old synth rejuvinated, >and again< draws inspiration from the rich synthesised landscapes of classic detroit techno, however adds a totally fresh and modern aesthetic, through its use of precise drum fills and beatifully crafted harmonies. on a more thoughful, soulful tip, >unexpected< unravells itself with smooth chord atmospheres, driving, solid-state percussion and teasing delay fx. the story might be a familar one to those who have their ears firmly pressed to the dancefloor, but for good reason, as these two fine storytellers have crafted a golden moment for the late, late hours. the acidic ride of >potato tomato<, with its pushing sub bass and glistening crescendos is perhaps the toughest cut of the e.p, and delivers the energy where its needed whilst still holding onto that classic, deep-as-dawn chicagotodetroit vibe.

bonus round is back, the glitterati fashionista ep by ben pest unloads 4 original genre bending tracks that contain elements of techno and p funk, all ready to cause ruin to the discotheque! jumpadelic is a heavy chicago influenced, gangster funk workout. the tune has been causing a stir as part of bens live set with a vocal hook that gets everyone jacking! theres a party inside my mouth is a hard and crunchy electro funk track with some wobbly synths that will warp minds. lukes anger checks in with a futuristic re work of now panic adding some spookiness to the twisted original. tiny beginnings rounds off the ep with a slower tempo and more funk laden grooves, lots of cheeky sounds keep the mind hooked while the ass follows...

stone cold classic funky disco floor filler thats stood the test of time. first time ever on 12inch!!! taken from the hard to find self titled lp by tommy stewart, bump & hustle music is the definitive disco funk party anthem. it was recorded in 1976 in atlanta, georgia, and since then the lp has found itself in the play boxes of soul, funk and jazz djs alike. however, its not until now that this amazing song has finally made it onto the preferred format of dance djs the world over – the 45rpm 12inch single. in 1976 tommy stewart was a busy man, working as an arranger, producer, performer and writer for a host of soul and rnb artists. the lp made for abraxas records was the first to go directly under his name, and although it failed to take off locally, the lp soon became known by djs across the world primarily for the club smash bump & hustle music. as it happens that song in particular almost didnt exist but for tommy needing to come up with something quick in order to fill in a gap in the album. conceived and recorded on the spur of the moment, and with backing vocals by isaac hayes singers hot buttered soul overdubbed later, its a superb example of rhythmic simplicity blended with soulful, catchy harmonies. its just impossible to listen to bump & hustle music without a broad smile coming to your face, and when played loud in a club, its impossible not to dance!

the most skanking acid techno track ever gets two giant size remixes, acid style from aaron and the geezer and then a hard to the max techno version from the getafix label crew

third 2006 brachial release by monophonic!!

rezkars fascination with music began with his parents record collection. listening to local radio stations as a child, he heard 80s tracks. as an adult he discovered the magic of 60s and 70s jazz and funk. one day, his cousin played a track that he immediately fell in love with. he later learned that this was house music. he discovered the fruity loops sequencer software and thought, why not try to make my own tracks, after all, it cant really be that hard? deep house can sound deceptively simple. its a bit like japanese anime, rezkar says. it looks so cute and easy to draw, but try to actually draw it, and you will discover its even harder than realistic drawings. the thing about house is that if you try too hard it can come across as being very cheesy, but then again, if you dont do enough it can sound incomplete. finding the balance is not easy, rezkar admits. after hearing his music, one finds that he is learning this lesson quite well.

evil hard techno two tracker by madman stylez and reconstruct

groovebox ep is filled with some class a material for the raunchy dancefloor. first up there is into the club. this track is typical for channel x: it will blow off the roof in the club! as the title of the track already suggests, this is another one of channel xs lengthy journeys into nightlife extravaganzas. a wonderful fidgety bassline and a loop filled with loads of soulful vocal samples from strong male leads to sensitive female souls, this tune is both deep, touchful and destroying. the chainsaw effect session in the middle paves the way for more stomping tech-house business. no time to recover from this, because on the flip its straight onto the floor with wake up: a loop thats made of trillions of little cut-up effects, vocal bits and some straight four to the floor business. after a playful beginning the tune moves into an hypnotic piece of trippy techno only to be converted into a restless party anthem for the Überpeak-time. sick! perhaps there is some time to chill with the last of the three tracks that is against the wall. here it becomes clear what channel x are best at: to create dark, hard and moving electronic music with that special ingredient that is soul. this track is a perfect example: some frightening effects, lots of reverb on the creepy samples, but such a wonderfully harmonic sample that seems to shed light at the end of the never-ending afterhour. if there is a message to this music, it would be: you need to look hard, but there is always love. once again label boss oliver koletzki has picked up these two very talented producers very early upon their career and it has paid off: in one release being better than the one before

breaking the rules and beeing anything but mr. nice guy - with this massive new ep on karateklub blood & tears shows his straight, trippy, disturbed and mindthrilling way of getting a dancefloor boiled, slaughtered and painted blood-red. blood on the dancefloor is a hypnotising anthem, a bow to the sound of frankfurt of the mid ninetees, pounding more than nine minutes, combining the catchy grooves of todays- and the spirit of oldschool techno with rising pads and pushing sequences. this was made to be played on big floors on very high volume, so turn it up and see what happens when the drums return after a breathtaking break...because blood will follow blood - flip the disk and drop the needle. another advanced dj tool awakens the b-side - your truth was just another lie, something like the beautiful silence before the storm which is the heavy and absolutely non-compromising i wish you were dead. eight minutes of hate and destruction, of nothing but pure techno and a statement that needs no fucking explainings!

two key players of the scene join forces on figures sixteenth release. no one else than adam beyer and luke slater contribute tracks to this very special ep. mod by luke slaters planetary assault systems project takes off with a fast, breathless groove. its force drags the dancers along, and the mesmerizing bleeps put everybody in a deep trance. within seconds, the solid ground of the dancefloor is nothing but a remote memory. mod has a very special aura, it is hard to grasp its exceptional energy. it appears to be pretty elementary, and yet it is an verwhelming techno anthem which will accompany you for quite some time. adam beyers simulated usage surprises the crowd with its elegance and subtlety. forming an irresistible funk, the fabric of the track interweaves various tiny elements. this savageness obviously manifests in his musical approach which can be characterized by his open-mindedness in regard to diverse influences, currents and styles. simulated usage is strong and joyful, it is techno in its best sense. once again, adam beyer und luke slater manage to coin the face of contemporary club music.
