by now you have probably seen or heard about the oscar winning documentary *searching for sugar man*, if not, we strongly suggest you to… it really moved us. ditongo did a tribute edit of rodriguez song *climb upon my music*. be careful, this is quite special!

the swiss techno veteran quenum sweetens our catalogue number 073. we are trying not to go like a bull at the gate with its cock ring on but yes… this one is about sex. the title track on a1 *zone erogene* is a soft voice that salaciously whispers into your ear, while *pornflake* on b1 will set your hormone bells to ringing. the artist, who has made a name for himself through numerous outstanding releases in the past, is not the only remarkable element of this record. upon you is introducing a new concept: vinyl only tracks- meaning that the a2 track of our release *intimate immensity* will only be available on vinyl.

hank jackson is from southern california, but he calls brooklyn home. a couple months ago, when we were stamping alex burkats record in the mister office, we put these songs on. after we picked our eyeballs off the floor, we realized we were listening to more than just face-burning techno. theres something about hanks music that seems to embody the conflict between youth and age, what its like to live in a society where the law can simultaneously & arbitrarily protect you or harm you. but maybe we just think too much. no matter what, we are happy to introduce hank, and we are happy to present you with the deposit ep. we hope you enjoy

new sheffield label shabby doll records makes its debut with nails donks ep. nail is nottingham-based neil tolliday, a producer who spent the last decade creating deep downtempo joy as one half of bent – their debut album *programmed to love* helped ease the worlds ills back in 2000. now, with love for nails solo manoeuvres truly reignited, sheffields shabby doll label is taking the next step with his first new solo material for years. called donks, nails new four-track ep showcases his flawless dancefloor instincts: there is something deliciously seductive about this early hours charmer. one to play when things are getting wonderfully weird… and finally, never4gedit brings back the sunshine with some sweet, melody-flecked disco. with nails vintage house output currently proving to have real staying power, lovers of real british house music eagerly await his new tracks. so if you have got a dark room and a feeling, let nail, shabby doll and donks add a little magic to the night.

supported by ricardo villalobos, raresh, mathias kaden, dan ghenacia, dyed soundorom & shonky...
cologne based imprint klangkultur schallplatten was previously associated with stripped back minimal sounds but have recently been showing they are about more than just that: helping them do so here is ubiquitous british dj and producer dale howard with his * what else ep*, complete with a remix from moon harbour man martinez.

after their collaboration at last years unsound festival, there were rumours about a recorded ep from interplanetary prophets a.k.a. jamal moss (hieroglyphic being) and daniel martin mccormick (ital). the good news is they were true. these tracks are the fruits of studio jams earlier this year, edited down into three long, dense pieces. and the coupling really works, interplanetary prophets feels and sounds like a brand new entity.

trotz zahlreicher nebenprojekte wie alexis taylors about group, joe goddards the 2 bears und einem vollgepackten tour-kalender, lassen uns hot chip nach ihrem erfolgs-album in our heads vom sommer 2012 auch in diesem jahr nicht im stich: die neue single dark and stormy erscheint am via domino! der typisch leichtfüßige hot chip-sound trifft auf eingängig groovende bass-lines und den soulig-melancholischen gesang alexis taylors. dabei herausgekommen ist ein elektrisierender dance-pop-song, der spätestens mit dem aah-ooh der bridge ganz fest im ohr hängen bleibt.

hey guys, here is finn records from germany, and this is for you!
we are happy to present new dotstripe 12 inch record on finn schallplatten 002. you can enjoy minimal influences with rhythms and excellent research of bouncing clicks, hackly hats, playful percussions and african voices combined with dreamy melodies. just the right sound for the club to go on a jungle safari. finn 002 comes with a nice remix package a la matthias adler and a strong britta arnold remix!

in 2011, we begin to think about doing a record label. we had been following somaticae for some time and at this moment he was playing some art & punk gigs with a furious live of electronic improv, on the edge between hypnosis and noise. two of these sessions became our second release, *dressed like a bubblegum*, raising the interest of people like surgeon, perc, and peter van hoesen , his remix for mondkopfs *ease your pain* receiving praise from ancient methods as well as labels downwards and avian. but somaticae had already moved forward, and in a matter of a few weeks, he was sending us what quickly and easily took shape as *catharsis*, a ten track piece which is to be the first album release on in paradisum.

another exclusive cooperation of internasjonal / full pupp and friends. this time we took three tracks from the second album of italys fine cosmic/kraut duo crimea x and bjorn torske wich was originally released on hell yeah and gave them an extra special prins thomas diskomiks twist. the result is as for me, especially convincing in dream is gone which almost sounds like a warm late 80s club version of a new order track. which, again, hopefully says something about its future fanboy / fangirl potential. so simple and so nice!

this is a story about two men from italy who are about to set the electronic music scene on fire. they gave themselves the funny name the deepshakerz and their tracks get supported by all the big names in the game. we welcome the deepshakerz for their new mind e.p. on kittball. this mind blowing release includes 3 tracks that will turn every dance floor from ibiza to las vegas into a madhouse - and a bonus-remix by tube & berger! this summer it is time for a new mind!

krasnodar, located around 1500km due south of moscow is where aleksander tochilkin (kott) calls home. from this city, deep in the south of the giant russian state, kott crafts and creates even deeper cuts of house music.
this, his debut ep for italian imprint dabit, is made up of three original tracks and remix by dave scott. *physics* is firmly rooted in the classic house ethos, chopped vocals and glorious strings build an impressive backdrop for the swinging hats and off beat snares. it is hard to listen to this track without thinking about the sun.

debut single off daft punks #1 album, random access memories. musically, *get lucky* is a disco and funk song while lyrically, according to pharrell williams, the song is about the fortune of finding chemistry with someone and not just about sexual chemistry. the single has topped numerous charts around the world... pressed on hi quality 180gr vinyl, also includes digital download

similarly, this compilation is all about that - bringing interesting elements together. i have invited producers that envoke that magic within me. they have all touched my soul. great music is just like happiness, its only real when shared.

with releases on skylax, morris audio, no matter what, local talk, kolour, rawax and much much more, we dont need to say more about they guys on this va. quality all the way.

nice price deal !!! oh how we love the dancefloor and its magic! every weekend we lose ourselves in endless grooves and jacking beats. we forget about time and space and let the music hypnotize us. we move our bodies. we sweat and feel happy and high. for moments like this snuff trax 009-b with tracks by affie yusuf, john red hawk, ricardo miranda and arttu was made. dedicated to all you dancers out there.

montreal dream pop duo footprintz have already captivated the world with their magical debut album on visionquest escape yourself and next single fear of numbers is about to keep the fire burning. as much a vehicle for a true remix master as alight shone on this album highlight, leo zero filters fear of numbers through his own balearic vision and fuzzy warm lens across one remix and two alternative dubs. unveiling laid back percussive rolls and expansive grooves, the zero remix is a slow, chugging masterpiece while the alternative dub imbues a digital folky pop feel with playful keys and a searing melodic synth-line.

nice price deal !!! the idea for the sundowner sessions came about when mike found an old tascam cassette 4-track recorder at a garage sale in maplewood new jersey a few months ago. he went home and recorded some songs over a few extended sessions in his living room with headphones while his daughter napped upstairs. taking influence from early belgian trance and the diy noise and power electronics records simonetti released on his old label troubleman- the idea was to capture a moment in time and document it, and never revisit it again. projects like this is why new jersey exists as a label.respect to come org, united dairies, steinklang, american tapes, transmat, hospital prod, and tesco.

opener getting run down loops up a nagging hip hop sample over skittering dukey beats and washes drifting pads and spacey keys over the top for a hypnotic late night groover. reach out goes at a calmer pace, but revolves around intense builds, insistent polyrhythms and detroity riffs for a bit of hypnagogic drama. on memix duties, om unit does what you hope hes going to do, injecting reach out with seemingly infinite swathes of space and bottom end, looping about at his own pace, but with that constant sense of om unit purpose. nphonix closes out proceedings with a tweaky, rubbery acid style workout that will find friends in bass and house camps.

still busy is about still being excited after 10 years whilst searching for the perfect beat.

spring zero thirteen finally arrived here in vienna, and with it a busy luv shack schedule to shout about. this time the boys deliver a delicious double header coming in two parts. yes, luv10 comes in two vinyl slices spread out over a few weeks. and you will need all eight tracks too as the label gets really serious with some heavyweight dance music, including a first for them in inviting major guest appearances from the likes of rocco raimundo, mike burns, dj rocca, ben sun & tyson ballard as voyeurhythm, rotciv and radio diffusion. the label is spreading its wings and, it is the right time to invite others to come roost in the shack and spread the luv.

ida engberg describes collage like so: not many things in life beat the true experience of the perfect party. that definitive moment when location, music and people all come together in the same place to create that perfect shared experience. it is about that vibe that can only exist when all those components work together in perfect harmony.

we all had our dreams when we were young. its never too late to live them. this is basically what this special series which h.o.s.h. presents us here on diynamic is all about.

telonius will release his debut album on gomma in the end of august. and seems there is quite a buzz about it already.

following on from the release of david ks well-received sneakers & playground ep, the unnerving pairing of nico & pherox (aka tim querengaesser) return with a record that is veiled by in a dark and mysterious shroud. nico (previously known as verena) is a young and fresh female artist, influenced from an early age by the classical work of her father (who worked as a music composer), whilst pherox is a more familiar presence in todays deep clubbing landscape, having released on mupa, catenaccio, dumb unit, stock5 and his very own label, slash. on this ep, the pair explore a broad palette of sounds, taking in italian horror film-esque chords, chopped and screwed vocal samples, rolling basslines, soothsaying vocals, drawn out fog horn stabs. this is deep music, flavoured by the nocturnal, tinted by the eighties, and ultimately full of originality.

sorgenfri inspelningar is a new label hailing out of malmoe, sweden. syra is significant for acid in swedish, and that is what this first release is all about! benjamin syra provides 4 great analog acid tracks, limited 300 copies, vinyl only.

lord tusk makes his vinyl debut with the natural partnership ep the first in a series of releases on the newly minted levels imprint. a veteran of londons underground as a selector, lord tusks influences run deep: electro, hip-hop, old jack swing, film scores, p-funk, roots & culture and dub. a devotee of sound system culture and martial arts, both are reflected in his approach to music making which is free of restrictions. there are no specific tempos, genre limitations or fixed methods he works by. with lord tusk it is all about sensation, emotion, stimulation and inspiration from the sounds, instruments and effects. these are raw sounds for the big speakers.

crosstown continue their run of killer singles in 2013 with the russ yallops eagerly anticipated single the journey. russ has been steadily honing his craft since his first killer release on crosstown rebels in 2010 i cant wait. back on home label turf, the london-based producer is about to unleash the journey feat. aimee sophia including a pair of storming remixes by man of the moment huxley.

new label tough luck records marks their first release with rebels history e.p. packing 4 tracks, which really showcase what tlr are all about. experimental, throbbing sounds, groove-laden basslines and heavyweight percussion designed for the club

double vinyl also including free digital download. this record should put clouds in the ranks of the elite uk techno vanguard. one of the best techno full-lengths of the year - resident advisor. 9/10 album of the month - mixmag

some 100 years ago, sweden was a miserable dark and damp habitat. august strindberg captured the soul of the country, ingmar bergman psyched it, and lena nyman sexed it up. nowadays, we add nostalgia about the swedish model to that mix. this record is a story about the sweden you might not know, in which you need a special permit….to dance

what do you do when a live project exceeds its own ambitions? just keep doing the wonderful concerts and eventually head to the studio. sounds simple and conclusive. in the case of karocel, that was exactly how they went about it and surprisingly, all six band members made it happen. though the four marbert rocels, mathias kaden and michael-mitchi-nagler have known each other from their hometown along the gera-jena-erfurt corridor, and the karocel live shows have been well received: an album is an entirely different beast.

the flying dutchman, bart skils makes a triumphant return to break new soil for the first time since his 2012 smash, all about the music. bart has been an integral cog in hollands techno scene both as an artist and party promoter.

espai music are proud to present energy 52, the first and long-awaited espai release from the inimitable spada.
having received the demo, we were in no doubt that this would warrant an inaugural and exclusive vinyl release. our finest of the year, the track embodies all that we love about electronic music with a fusion of rhythm, energy and emotion. a true masterclass.
it is fitting, then, that we recruit two of technos best loved stalwarts to offer pre-eminent interpretations. taho, known for his releases on labels f comm, delsin and ovum (to name a mere few) delivers a utopian techno piece with detroit flavour. jim enhances his bountiful reputation further with a groovy dancefloor filler and another sprinkle of detroit.

for its 15 years old, qalomota rec. brings fresh blood into the family. fab_o is the new young producer who produced this excellent ep where you could taste his skills. old school house with groovy bass and voice on a side, you will be surprised on b side with these 2 others beautiful tracks. no need to speak or write about music just listen and feel it. house music for body and soul as usually on qalomota records!

this is his first vinyl ep. these tracks are his special works while his all productions.especially about mind piano is produced for people who got a japanese terrible victim of march 11th on 2011. iori had strong image of healing them mind on that track,and he hoped make them relax and feel comfortable from deep sounds

once again, raphaël laredo slipped through the authorities fingers: he does not care about the rules anymore, he infringes the standards and delivers us an ep beyond the correct and required limits! the only indication, its address: the club -akasha-.
rafaël murillo is already there, armed with a bomb. despite everything, laredo is a believer, he knows all the good and the bad theories. he insists on involving us, from the top, on the traces of the plot -crop circles- supported by the strong foundations of his brother, gaffy. the tech house spirit of laredo glides between paris and barcelona. eloïse oddos totally seized it when she designed the amazing record sleeve of crop circles for seconde.

more than six years into his career after several eps and a full album, there isn’t much known about ben gibson, and he is clearly keeping it that way with intent. gibson first emerged on jeff mills’ experimental, influential 6277 sublabel but then again vanished into the ether, he only reappeared three years later on perc trax, even more surprisingly with a full-length. since then, he’s gone on to steadily more notice with perc’s imprint, sect records, and most recently m_rec ltd in spite of the continuing lack of information. exposure isn’t the most important thing for us at chronicle though, and after hearing these five tracks, we saw exactly what it is that drew mills to him from the beginning. it is a sound that we find a perfect fit for the techno futurism of our chronicle series, and here we offer a platform for gibsons more sci-fi, ethereal sounding material, exclusively on vinyl for the fifth edition of our sublabel.

the curatorial direction appleblim has always chosen to take with apple pips is rooted in his dj sets, testing tracks to the nth degree and searching for those cuts which engender the desired emotional response in the club. arkists 2011 banger rendezvous held plenty of that weight in its original form, and it wasnt long before scuba wanted to get his hands on the parts for a more houseminded revision in line with his scb output. kept as a secret weapon of blims ever since it was first crafted, scubas dj kicks mix in 2012 finally brought about a public airing of his own edit. with the dust settled on that particular chapter, it is only fitting that this rock solid interpretation receives a full vinyl release over which the eight minutes of poised keys, unflinching bass and swelling atmospherics can prowl undisturbed.

furfriend is everything you never dared to sex about. from the depths of warm and tight cavities come the two fuck pets dingo tush (vocals) and das uberdog (production) be it the pleasures of gay circuit life or the sweet feel of sheep in their best years – furfriend covers it all and more.

limited pressing of 268 handnumbered copies on green marbled vinyl.

chris spero (otherwise known as uk house and techno producer glimpse) and hypercolour co-founder and producer, alex jones, return once again as dense & pika to the hotflush fold with move your body back. having crept out of the shadows back in 2011 with a collection of white labels released through their own eponymous imprint, dense & pika went on to bolster their rising profile with the release of their hotflush debut (crispy duck) which landed late last year as well as with their memorable live set at hotflushs recent boiler room takeover. there is nothing chin-strokingly complicated or needlessly over-worked about their productions. they make interesting techno aimed at the dance floor and move your body back continues with this central aesthetic. the three track ep plunders percussive depths by way of stern machine rhythms, swollen low-end grit and the echoing, anthemic elements of warehouse rave techno. the title track of the ep may already be familiar to many having appeared on their resident advisor podcast in march and is already being played out by maya jane coles, boddika and adam beyer, amongst others.

in 403 after a long break, fiakun team and el_txef_a join forces again, for this second colaboration at the studio. something about the way your hair falls in your face, is pure summer love.

our first release in 2013 comes up with a new varied artist. we are very pleased to introduce you to the cologne-based dj and producer pfeiffer. after several digital releases it is about time to give this exceptional talent a chance for his first vinyl release. as a co-founder of the cologne-based rheinrhythmik event series he has created his own idea of music within the last few years. we are impressed and fascinated by what we have heard so far. four tracks, each of them perfectly suited for the dancefloor. enjoy!
musical support for the b-side comes from sandru on b1 and the fourth track on b2 is a collaboration with alexander siegel from the ordinary subject.

de:tuned is the new label of djs, record collectors and party promoters bonny (ruben boons) and konnekt (bert hermans).the label is an extension of the de:tuned parties which they have been organising since 2009 in and around antwerp (belgium). de:tuned stands for proper old school club music, whether its techno, acid, rave, house. de:tuned is about quality music in general. previous guests at the de:tuned events include ben sims, dave angel, mike dred, robert leiner, cj bolland and frank de wulf to name but a few.

limited to 500 numbered copies on purple coloured & marbled vinyl.
there is not much information available about this mysterious release, but it looks like a sunken treasure has found its way to daylight: a crazy no-wavey-punk-funky jam by the artist formerly known as a guy from minneapolis. now available for the first time on 12 inch! pressed on purple vinyl with white marbling, this beautiful diamond comes along with three pearls: a re-mastered version of the original track, a cover version and a jackin house re-edit. we suspect that berlin based producer noema droped the crazy cover version and chicagos own jamie 3:26 rides the rhythm on the edità rumours..rumours..rumours

an artist usually chooses his (her) name to create an alter ego. this time, its a little different as from one, the artist became five. but christine and the queens is indeed a solo artist. opposite emotions, self-contradictory statements, eclecticism, all things that were roughed out on her two rather confidential first eps, are confirmed on the one shes about to release on because music.

little is known about mysterious producer tommy rawson. our first acquaintance was the aptly named shy track on red rackems smugglers inn 001 release. we tried to find out more but the trail got cold pretty quick. it was not until hearing gilles peterson playing a version of hugh masekelas dont go lose it baby on his show that word got around, tommy rawson was back. this particular anthemic track found its way to mats who then started playing it out and every time, in every club no matter where in the world the reaction was same, people completely lost it on the dance floor! we had but no choice to release the track and luckily enought tommy must have a sixth sense because at the same time mats blasted the track at the local talk office to convince tooli shouting: this is the next big release for local talk, i m telling you! another track made it into his mailbox, the soulful house jam brenda done died with no name. both tracks ended up on this 12 inch of course. mr rawson has delivered the goods here, warm, sunsplashed music all the way. a name to watch for this year and probably not mysterious for long.
