khotin (normals welcome resident) returns for his second release on our imprint after his well received releases on 1080p and fauxpas musik. he joins up with australia’s dan white, whose release on forbidden planet found it’s way into our record bags this past year. deep space acid vibe on this one. 2 tracks per side by each artist.

our second release is brought to you by síthóu, a talented artist from our beloved hometown mannheim in germany. his tracks have a minimal touch, but are all strong and impulsive for every dancefloor. following the tradition of musicians from frankfurt/ offenbach/ mannheim, who are working together, patrick puts all his effort in this remix and delivered a masterpiece of timeless electronic music.
already support by sedee, oskar offermann, archie hamilton, nekes, carola pisaturo ...

over the years all day i dream has developed a range of music that reflects and captures the spirit of the brand and the sounds of our outdoor day parties. this sampler is a collection of these moments presented as our soundtrack to the summer and features some very exciting artists we are proud to have representing us.

for our second 12 release on tobus limited x, we welcome kolombo who joined with sammy w & alex e to make strider, a full and complete ep featuring three tracks with remixes from ics, chemical surf and vintage culture. so here it comes!

our latest release mila, its not over comes from the mysterious ponty mython (alex). with roots in st. petersburg, he now sends us his latest intricately produced works from his studio in vilnius, lithuania. alex joined the dirt crew family last year, adding his excellent artist name and ear for exotic samples to our ‘deep love 10 compilation with his track ‘movin on. first up on this new release is ‘face down, a cross-continental collaboration with tijuana based tastemaker sebastien vorhaus.

white asega co-­owner jack dixon wrote new curtains after a friend who was coming wildly off the rails told him he was a good producer but his tunes were boring. the original version was really sparse and about 300bpm. when jack moved to new york the parts got lost, so he remade the track a dozen times. this was the version we all liked best, although jack never wants to hear it again in his life. it sounds tough and tropical. our friend troy gunner remixed it, and turned it into something so loud and slamming it will knock your teeth out. after telling jack to stop making boring music, mark kodiak spent two horrendous years working with jamie kodiak on a song they ve called taargus. it nearly destroyed their friendship forever but we think it was worth it. it has brutal weapon sounds, nasty snares and an incessant “yo” that has been described as “annoying and unnecessary”. the artist tom pounder has created a blinding video for it that contains brand new colours. french born bass genius bambounou stepped up to remix the track, taming the wild stems into a hypnotic early­morning house stepper. it took us approximately 2000 exhausting facebook group chats, four cross­atlantic flights and one divorce to get to this point. we hope you will enjoy this record for the rest of your lives. rip ken tulley.

after the immersive techno pulse of qindeks effe 12inch, wavereform is thrilled to present the return of rising lativan talent juras lietus to our label for our fifth release. his debut single des-m marked our second release in 2014, and while the artist remains something of a mystery outside of his home city of riga, his productions sport the kind of well-travelled tones that transcend geographical location to deliver an infectious message. the single kicks off with metallic thump of >steiga<, which leaps out from the very start with an addictive chord line and a well-rounded kick. juras lietus handles the progression of his track with poise, feeding in a rich tapestry of percussive elements and teasing the filter on that distinctive synth to give the track a fluid, psychedelic flavour. balancing these elements out is a warm, undulating bassline that injects a joyous energy into the track, while the soul-stirring speech sample should be familiar to any socially conscious dancer. its a production that satisfies the needs of a party-hungry dancefloor while equally delivering the internal reflection that comes with all great dub techno.

innocent music presents their fifth vinyl only release for their 3rd anniversary! this time our label boss aney f. delivered us 2 original productions and he invite diwex & mene as remixers! definitely one of the vinyls you should have in your bag, this time we printed 500 copies with printed cover and colourful vinyl to make our anniversary and this release even more special!

mat.joe ... those 2 bad boys join our material labels are on hype! nothing but pure bassline grooves and solid beats.. they way materialism goes!

hidden away in the vaults of the (not so) mysterious bufiman, these almost lost recordings will see new light through our little imprint in the middle of june!

co founder of one of our favorite labels of the moment how to kill detroit, knocked us over with his own trax recently, so we had to do a release with him. shady p brings us some prime detroit techno sludge with this ep.

we are very happy to announce the 2nd release of smallevilless jacques bon in this year. this time he collaborated with legendary chicago house artist virgo four. their in a vision is one of our most fav chicago house track. jacquess sweet original version and our long time friend superpitcher made great rework

our afro-latin warrior jose marquez is back once again on basic fingers with two new percussion infected workouts. those familiar with jose marquez s previous works will not be disappointed as this might be his strongest release yet. on quinto y bongo he goes on dark tribal journey with hints of electronic layers and some serious bongo action. the flip track canto del caribe is more direct & to the point with a full on percussion assault and fierce latin chants. a proper floor filler!

nice price deal !!! what happens far away from pointless party spots, boring student clubs, werder bremen and the smelly station forecourt full of piss, in this beautiful, grey city next to the river? more than before, we checked the musical output of the town, listened to recordings from friends and dug the archive. back to the origin of our intention – having a platform for all the artists who surround us in our dynamic environment and structures. for the five year anniversary of zckr records: a journey through warehouses, rehearsal rooms, workshops and studios of people who create the art we appreciate and who let us look to the future with a great sense of enthusiasm.

for our second vinyl release of the summer, we see slf and jag (a.k.a stephane lefrancois and jameson gilvarry) team up with lexy panterra on >no regrets<.

recomposing fragments from the past in order to understand our present. sound archeology. silex device.

scrambled rhythms features two original classic house tracks from the outstanding hector moralez alongside two brutal remixes. the real house gangster dj sneak is guilty of an acid interpretation of ten 30 one 33 , while the prolific artist tuccillo completes the b side of the release with a different approach to scrambled rhythms . roush continues with the hard work while we expect you love our first vinyl press as much as we do.

incl download code , since a few years mrz is steadily shaping his dancefloor sensitivity on zürich s underground and sophisticated parties. its not a suprise you can whitness mrz s flow on his new productions becoming more natural as it does when he performs live. these three tracks plus instrumental are only a pick of many great new tracks, so we hope you are going to like our selection: title track konterversum is just as you d be sneaking in a stairway and catching a couple - to our surprise - having a dispute while the party booms behind the door. subversly charming. multiversum does somehow picture how it feels trying to quit a conversation at phone - while riding an edgy but flowing groove. circaversum is basically held in swiss german dialect and we let you guess what they are talking about. we insisted on an instrumental version of the track for those not so much inclined into three-guys-jacking-the-mic-in-the-studio. it was worth it.

next up on les disques de la mort, and we playing with all the preconceptions, once more. now we are slowing things down, and speeding them up. the word is elastic . we are back with our most psychedelic release to date and you are the first to be injected. rodion & mammarella are known for their strange hybrid of slow burning electronic disco but they have been on the mountain of truth. they saw the light. they flew off. on the remix duties toulouse low trax provides the dusseldorf angel dust to suspend you in time and space and flavien berger, the new wunder french kid, is on the opiate shuffle.

tim green turned to one of our main players here at cocoon recordings as he is looking at his fifth release with this one already.

180g vinyl only. >pourquoi pas< is the french for >why not<. why not such a title. why should we not break the boundaries of established genres of electronic music in an orgasm of modern psychedelic experimentations and grooves, and come back to the roots of our sexy house music all in one single record. why shouldn t we have the mole on the remix duty. why wouldn t this record be dedicated to our brothers refugees, we are one people. pourquoi pas!

our new bad girl karima a liberian-italian rapper, dancer and beatmaker takes you with her on her revolution tour to free the world from any form of social and political oppression. her juke-inspired ep bantu juke fever punshes with *no compromise* directly in your face. militant we like!!

release number three for pleasure unit is an in house affair, a rare collaboration on some original material from two of the keyboard mashers. early feedback on les crocodiles has been great and we are currently waiting on a remix from one of our fav scandi producers who offered a mix on hearing a rough draft. three mixes in all le club, acid dub and tropique ambi sunrise.

to celebrate fifty fathoms deeps 2nd year of pressing we asked some of our favourite producers to remix a selection of cuts from our back catalogue and as expected they ve all come up trumps! the ep opens with fouk boys riding the groove on their remix of ugly drums don t let life (passing by) then thatmanmonkz goes left of centre with his reimagining of phil asher feat james massiahs move ya self. on the flip new zealand s frank booker comes correct on his take of lay-fars triptych to round off a great package. the ep is a fitting way to mark another year of quality music from fifty fathoms deep.

north lake is a fairly established name in the leftfield techno scene and each release he puts out leaves his listeners constantly looking forward to much more. the prolific and elusive michigan-based artist has a rich repertoire of previous releases and contributions on exemplary record labels such as permanent vacation, life and death, ellum or phonica.
the four tracks on his seventh ep stand out as masterful, immersive, very intense and at times eerie pieces of lower-bpm dance music. opener *sun gun* and title-track *two headed beast* follow up on the trails of *journey to the center of the sun* or *marlborol noir*, adding further proof of his ability to constantly deliver memorable synth jams. the b-sides *caverns* and *white lodge* allow him to explore his darker side, adding even more melodic intricacy and dramatic moments to his deep, eerie trademark sound.
*two headed beast* is our collectives sixth physical release to date and the first in a longer string scheduled in 2015. *white lodge* will be available exclusively on wax.

billy meier, the third record in the untold stories protagonist ep series, is by suokas, and includes a remix by alka rex. the works stem from the remote town of petrozavodsk in russia, where the artist suokas lives a life of diligent focus. the album is dedicated to billy meier whose extensive writings and transcriptions document his contact with extraterrestrial beings, largely from a civilisation called plejaren located a fraction of a second shifted from our own dimension. his works are devoted to widening consciousness and challenge what we conventionally accept as true. similarly inspired, suokas says my music is about things that cannot be proven by conventional methods.

having dropped some of our favourites from the last year on labels like mr saturday night and autonomous africa, we are very happy to welcome these guys to the ten thousand yen family. weird, trippy rhythms, space echoes and chaos held together with hard percussive sound. so sick.

the summer of 2015 sees gruuv celebrate 5 years in the game. we have put together a brand new compilation featuring 25 of our favourite artists, which will be released as 6 x 4 track vinyl releases every two weeks throughout the summer and features artwork from the renowned victoria topping. each ep will be released on limited edition vinyl, with a free poster and sticker inside, uniquely stamped from 001 - 500.

german-born and raised product & our personal friend steffen baldo (aka ugly drums) has been doing quietly doing his thing for many years now. not one for fluff, trends, or anything of the sort - he teams up with his mate chesney for session of straight up deep, underground house business & the result is the alec holland ep. pressing on translucent green coloured vinyl.

second release for black angus records. dj soch s trip continues into the pulsing heart of house music. after the first release which explored the original forms of the sound of chicago, with this release he moves towards another declared love: 90 s new york underground house. everything is brought together by his original, personal touch and careful ear to the freshest sounds of our times. -street groove- is definitely influenced by the tracky sounds of the earliest masters at work, the most inspired todd terry and the most important releases for henry street records. a captivating sample, a drum machine roll and an entrancing bassline: pure house music! the remix by nicholas takes original elements and recomposes it transforming the whole into a persuasive and deep track without losing even a drop of groove. -kick & tom- is the rawest and most direct track in the ep. super funky techno, like a train without stops devastating the dance floor. dj soch is old school that meets new, there is no future without the past. black angus only for dj !

** vinyl only release **
innovator is a pretty strong word but we believe it really is the only one that will do as we at future reactions very proudly present the one and only boo williams. born and bred in chicago and inspired by house musics true greats - we are talking larry heard, lil louis, marshall jefferson and co., of course - williams has already enjoyed a long and illustrious career as both a dj and producer with numerous essential and seminal releases for some of the underground’s most distinguished labels, relief records, ovum and track mode to name but three. now we warmly welcome him to our stable with his spiritually runnin ep featuring the eponymous title track and last chance, two cuts of beauteous, textured, soul-warming house music that are proper deep too. just the way we love it.

moudaber goes deep.... yes, our beloved mood leader returns home with her latest single and a track that may surprise some, as nicole gets her dub on.

an ep done by ukrainian producer -myztical- accompanied by paul birken remix. experimenting in offbeat techno as well as delivering straightforward techno bangers, this ep should fit well in every techno heads vinyl collection. inspired by frank herbert’s “dune” universe and it’s derivatives, this is fantasy about space and interstellar travels, fame and power, love and treachery, yet another untold story - thousand years ahead in very distant future, but pretty much inspired by our own life itself.

vinyl only double 12inch release with axel boman, shakarchi & straneus, baba stiltz and pedrodollar doing dubb versions of classic studio barnhus material. comes in transparent plastic sleeve with a4 info sheet.

need you back is a collaboration piece between the anonymous mystep character and vocalist frank h. carter iii. the original track and vocal laid the grounds for remix work by label regular jamie trench, and a most experimental remix by our new friend dudley strangeways. this release also commemorates 3 years of made fresh daily, it s been a hell of a lot of fun and learning so far. here is to another 3, mfd forever.

over 10.000 years ago, after the last ice age, humans began to explore and settle the place now known as scotland. evidence of our ancestors can be found in the various rock carvings, standing stones, tombs and dwellings still scattered throughout the lands today. modern archaeological techniques can offer ever more detailed suggestions as to what these monuments might have meant, but it is still largely left to our imaginations to discern just what these spaces were used for.

we are glad to welcome the mighty sleeparchive to our family. the berliner gives us two original tracks plus two remixes by label boss oscar mulero.

big with dixon, the drifter, alex niggemann, fur coat, thugfucker, frankey and sandrino. -sketches of pain- is a meet-up of two cultures which have been at war with each other for thousands of years. music unites where the world of men divides! here the magical voice of egyptian singer ahmad elsawy can weave its spell. intelligent electronica, ethnic and acoustic instruments, all join together once more to blend two worlds into one universal language. 3 remixes. luca bacchetti continues his series of endless remixes preferring a mostly dub feel with a version that retains some of the original elements, creating that tension culminating in what is the “suspended” sonic idyll that lately has characterized his breakdowns, by now a trademark of his. jon charnis, who we already know for his work on innervisions and all day i dream, has taken it in another direction to put together a true masterpiece, the tone here becoming more -trippy- with a pure afterhours atmosphere. the ever present and increasingly detailed groove add to that magic touch that has made charnis one of the most interesting techno artists on the american scene. last but not least one of our favourite techno artists, eduardo de la calle, surprises us with an interpretation that distances itself completely from the original, moving it into that enigmatic, mysterious and unregulated territory that is definitely his very own unmistakable way of living and feeling techno music. an ep that we expect will come-out from indoor clubs to find its best expression in exotic locations, deserts, beaches, dimensions that are part of that imaginary world that we call: endless.

having checked our records, its been a few years since the shelves at juno were graced with some music from the studio of italian dub techno exponent fabio scalabroni, so the arrival of a new 12inch brandishing his work is cause for celebration. the rohs! records label operated by belgium-dwelling compatriot andrea porcu is who we can thank for coaxing some new cuts out of scalabroni with the roots ep suggesting he s lost none of his production verve. root a will appeal to fans of the punchier tracks from the giegling discography whilst the b side track has a real slinky vibe to the groove that really gets in your head and stays there

elusive records keeps growing, thanks to our beloved artists, supporters, and the universe. putting quality first and bringing you the finest of the world’s underground, since 2008. information ghetto (3rd wave, get physical, multi vitamins, pro-tez,) makes his second appearance on elusive, once again proudly exhibiting his rich, distinctive, layered sound, with what is probably the most melodic track on this record. joining him, are two no less exciting finds. andrey burtaev (aka electrosoul system, kos.mos.music, highway records) is shining light at his space-dub project with mega secret weapon dub over moscow, and berliner sebastian albrecht (park recordings) is taking it towards his highly-infectious, precision hi-tech sound. watch out for these guys eps in the nearest future!

the next release on first music comes from profile with a beautiful picture cover! its a musical journey and a bomb tool for the upcoming summer months! we doubt that estonian-born artist viive kuks could imagine in 1984 that her euau-forte >viljandi vaade< (trnl. view of viljandi) will be on the record sleeve of a dubtechno record in 2015. moreover, that the birthplace of the music is also viljandi and that the graphics plate was stolen during turbulent times when a lot of countries were liberated. it was quite an off-chance and hard to believe that profile found a copy of the work at his grandparents place, framed and photographed the work for his 2nd vinyl release. and here it is, through countless threads and connections, through the memories of our forefathers. pure liberation.
