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

techhouse with something for everyone. good solid dancefloor workouts.

great hands in the air italo disco tune. very obscure italian act from the mid- 80s with a crazy song about being a plastic doll or something. as far as we know this was the only release dharma did... probably the plastic she was made of wasn t the strongest quality... unfortunately that is because this release did definitly stand the test of time! great record and we are happy to be able to offer this again!

souvenir records!!! lets just start this introduction with a quote: >we like the idea of seeing music as a souvenir, an impression you take from somewhere. something intimate to remember<. this is how the brothers schwarz aka tiefschwarz set the agenda for souvenir music, which they created with their french companion arthur velasquez and thus finally set up their own imprint after an eventful decade in the musicbiz. even just a quick listing of mighty deeds in the underground dance community would fill up page after page. if the story of king midas wasn t already centuries old, someone would have made it up now to describe the phenomenon of recent tiefschwarz remixes. who would serioulsy doubt that their golden touch also will rub on their own label and turn this start-up into another stellar success? cooked up in their berlin the first course >hey< by the artist ichundu is set to become the flavour of the month, even more so with extra delicious ingredients tiefschwarz added to their remix. yummy !! played by sven väth, sasse, chloe, tobi neumann, karotte...

dexter and marco passarani team up for one of the hottest releases on nature. kind of dexter meets passarani actually... chicago and detroit influenced trade mark tracks of passarani mixed with the razor sharp beats and phat basslines of dexter. the original version is probably the most advance mix with it sharp beats and funky basslines. the dexter mix is kind of minimal techno-ish funk or something, and the passarani mix is an excellent rocking chicago influenced house/techno track. very strong cuts which are allready rocking the dancefloors

big with james holden & thomas schumacher !!the a-side will and has already proved to be the perfect dance floor track while the b-side shows a deeper and more serious side of the label. with its funky base line and humoristic build up-break, subaquatic mechanic brings new life in to the myth of atlantis. playing games on the other hand, is techno for the david lynch generation. the atmosphere is so dense you can feel it. yes, you actually feel something when listening to this track. not so very common in dance music today and this is the reason why kontra-musik is here. the finishing track, high voltage monkey, brings it all down before it wraps it all up to a complete product. expect support from: richie hawtin

kung fu fan claude vonstroke offers something very special with seven deadly strokeswhich teases the mind into creating pictures of fighting scenes bruce lee would be proud of. vonstroke s production on this piece is nothing short of spectular sounds with attention to details so precise that you discover something new about the track with each inspection. patrick chardronnets remix builds and builds a deep rich atmosphere by keeping some of the original elements, adding a subtle deep bassline to this irresistibly grooving techno gem and a final magic breakdown that pleases every crowd from barcelona to glasgow

this is the first sombre dreadful picture which 24- year-old artist lászló fogarasi produces at the beginning of his album which is immediately a small resignation from his own musical past. the film noire has retired. the second album rises more and more into something absolutely unexpected..... having exchanged the forests of somogy county for the budapest, his new record >splendid isolation< is more mature and more urban than the amazing first album >shallow and profound<
