here comes the storm ram by head honcho marco remus. as a follow up to the huge yet mysterious n34 release which adds a little nerven spice to some classic prodigy material, remus presents the butan ep. the ep is one of his most progressing works to date from the hands remus. the ep starts with a stripped down and mental jackhammer which has already shown its power during marcos world tour. the ep even comes with something more melodic and slightly more spaced out than you ve perhaps come to expect. a true masterpiece that will not only please the die hard followers of marco remus

another strong piece of hard edge sound with gunjack, marco rane & paul boex, dj ogi and patrick dsp

peter has already graced numerous labels with his unique yet constantly evolving studio style. after numerous afterhour situations with the doc family, we caught wind of grummichs new productions. we believe that the therapy ep continues the development of peters uncompromising underground productions. the title track, therapy, is a nine-minute journey into dancefloor dynamics. slowly building with concentrated breaks, therapy works it out and then some. label boss, aaron hedges, has been giving it heavy dj support and has found that its been quite some time since well placed hat crashes can drive an audience crazy. minimal, sexy and sleek, but at 7 minutes the listener is surprised with a full on new-rave lead which takes the song in a different direction. get it is a nice tech-house track with building percussive patterns and highly concentrated synth breakdowns. this track is only for the most sophisticated house djs that know when to drop a track like this. drymilk is a seriously twisted hard minimal track. nasty sound effects and perplexing pitch shifts will keep you guessing. is it genius or insanity? you be the judge!

hard and funky techno four tracker with tracks by wehbba and gray

promise land is a solid deep soulful groove created by koyla. the demo floated around the bombay itunes player for a few of weeks, we needed someone to tear this track up. we tried a couple of options it wasnt working this groove needed something killer. thats were good friend jrod indigo come into play, san fran neo soul singer decides to come into lovely vancouver to hang for a while at bombay studio hq, and thats were the story starts for this track. jrod writes and lays down his song and creates the promise land over koylas ripping hooks and players. everyone is diggin the direction, timmy comes in and throws in some backups, inhouse producers sean dimitrie and nav take all the parts and put together a b side. the awaaz mix takes the track into a late night bumping funky direction with ambient tripped out textures and hard detroit style chords. overall this is a classic style ep with a real organic disco avour, that will never die for us. koyla and jrod are true musicians and deserve the fullest respect in this genre.

so you know were partial to a pseudonym or two in the dubsided camp. so just to confuse things further we would like to introduce voodoo chilli aka herve aka count of monte cristal. with a remix from mustapha 3000, aka erol alkan, the banging title track >look what you done to me< is accompanied by two more knock-hard tracks on the ep

been impressed by his remix on wall of sound... i loved it. i also heard he won some remix competition. like a grammy, only not a grammy. the tracks he sent were amazing... but his hair, while being orange (no bonus) was not corn-rowed. while i argued vigorously that i had worked too long and hard building up turbo to see it go all >ginger<... von party defended the duke, saying it might show how open-minded we are. when i re-listened to the tracks i decided that it was well worth the risk. so.... what you now hold in your hand is the debut on turbo of duke dumont: the mysterious bad ass from the wrong-side of the tube, the hardboiled london underground pioneer who once had to eat a sampler to survive, the future of dance music, and the past of the future of dance music

kenny dope gonzales and lil louie vega made their production debut on the new york label way back when, so there can be no one more fitting to compile the first new album release on the imprint. in case you didnt know, strictly rhythm were one of the most important house labels of the 1990s. established by entrepreneur mark finkelstein and serious club babe gladys pizzarro, the label would launch the careers of, among others, roger sanchez, erick morillo and, as we ve seen, masters at work. pretty significant, then! strictly maw is an album no true househead will want to miss

back in 1998 this was probably just about the wrongest record you had ever heard…and it has to be said that not much has changed. forshaw has a knack of turning out ridiculously hard and mangled electro and techno tracks – but still managing to make them sound >poppy<. sometimes, as in the case of rockford for example, it is because he uses well recognisable (but unexpected) samples. but more often it is just because he manages to make tunes (no matter how hard) that make you stop gurning and start smiling
