same script as with previous control voltage releases, 2 x 303, 1 x 808, 1 x 909, 2 x blokes on dial and desk duty and this time guest starring a linn lm2 for that fearsome descending snare sound. this one is a big analogue party tune that just keeps on going and is sure to put a wonky grin on a bunch of sweaty faces on a dancefloor near you this summer. also, contrary to a number of reports from a few internet record dealers who seem hell-bent on driving up the price of the first 2 control voltage 12s, they are not quite sold out a source, we havent got many left but there are a few remaining for anyone that needs them

lme starts into the new year... here comes the follow up smasher from luke lawson: >all night long<. dont worry... not just another cover version from an eighties hit. this one is a unique track including a guaranteed summer feeling. the upcoming producer from austria could enlist >the house voice< john whitfield for a cooperation. besides hot rhythms, a pumping bass line and brilliant piano sounds, this track particularly impresses with impulsive vocals and a big remix package with mixes from shootingstarz, lectrostar and falko niestolik & j.k david mix

first 500 limited edition on red transparent vinyl! we are very proud to present the debut of 21 year old tim toh, a fresh producer with such a huge talent and character in his tracks, we guess, we didn t hear for the last decade in house music! that s a big goal to claim, but it s also the reason, we signed him for a three-part series called >join the resistance< and this is part 1. the a-side is like an intro to the whole series, starting with some charming detroitish-sequences and a smooth piano, while the beat shapes itself naturally out of the track with raw percussions and a thumpin kick... from then on it twists and turns into sweet eternity…timeless! the b-side is beatdown rhythmic wizzadry and a tool par excellance, polyrhythmic percussions and a beat that will shake every floor you dare to play it

one of the stand out tracks from osunlades excellent artist album elelments beyond from early 2007 hits the shelves with a plethora of remixes from dj gregory, deetron and manoo stella. dj gregory does what he does best, building and layering tribal rhythms with techy beats with a touch of off key xylophone action thrown in for good measure. the manoo stella mix starts deep before big pads and synths take it in a near progressive direction, while deetron strips things right back and does away with most of the vocal for a pounding house rhythm perfect for the late night clubs. a great track made better by a set of slick remixes makes this a promising start to 2008 for strictly rhythm and osunlade.

splittr is the meeting of minds of martijn ten velden and mark yardley (from stanton warriors fame), two of modern dance musics biggest production heavyweights. as splittr, mark and martijn combine their collective skills and tastes to produce a dance/rock hybrid (new order infected guitar part) and a very fresh take on electronic music. in fact they started the project to give them the opportunity to split awayfrom any preconceptions people may have of them and any musical restrictions dance music genres can create. their first release, >all alone< (which sees mark take on vocal duties), has already created an underground buzz, with pete tong playing it on almost a weekly basis from the start of the year, regular spot plays on radio1 and major support coming from the likes of roger sanchez and deep dish. splittr are clearly set to take their sound worldwide

firm fave of: ewan pearson, agoria,fabrice lig, ali schwarz, shinedoe, ben watt, jimpster, umek, bodzin !!! pele is back, this time in cooperation with shokh aka dave shokh, dipolder label owner and kiddaz.fm ambassador. peles last release >childhoods end< is one of connaisseur most successful releases so far in 2007, with plenty of licensings for many important summer compilations. thumbs was already released as a limited 250 copies white label release in february this year. finally this great rumbling techno track found its way to connaisseur, to be presented to a bigger audience. >thumbs< is a squeaky, twittery and kickin minimal techno track packed with a bunch of little astonishing moments. already featured on patrick chardronnets grand cru mix, this is more than a perfect mixing tool: a stripped down minimal hymn, no redundant emotions, strictly rhythm a quality ass-shaker! simon baker leeds-based shooting star of 2007. after his amazing releases on playhouse, connaisseur, viva and his own imprint infant, he drops this massively bouncing techno monster of a remix. kind of chicagoesque, kind of daft and massively pushing pure peaktime madness!

big with: dan curtin, gregor tresher, karotte, thomas schumacher, monika kruse.... fresh fried is a new project by chris wood, nedzad berovic and frank leicher. nedzad and frank have already made furore with their release on balkon records. the aside >50 ways< starts with an organic housegroove. during the song a minimal melody originates, which comes to its climax because of a clever arranged break and a pad that sounds like the old detroit tracks. hands up on every open air floor ! the b-side includes the titel >on my mind< in two different versions: chris b1 version shows us how deep beats and tricky vocals can work together, and comes after a short break with a warm baseline to a house appeal that stayes in your mind... the version from berovic & leicher is a little bit harder and more minimal. because of nice arranged beats and the drifting baseline this track has to be played at the clubs

third and last single taken from the massive album >a cheerful temper< big with john digweed on radio 1 !! played by john acquaviva, marc romboy, sander kleinenberg, dj fex & martin eyerer >a cheerful temper<, the name of robert babiczs debut album for systematic rec is arguably the best way to describe the cologne based pole. babicz explains that he feels caught between two worlds: >the real world of everyday life and a surreal dream world comparable to the backdrop of a fairy tale.< vinyl comes in three parts, this is the 3nd one..!

big room italo stomper with male vocals (dance to the music) & piano melo !

alejandro mosso, aka funzion, was born in mendoza, argentina in 1983. a student of guitar and music theory since he was 14, he started his solo minimal house/techno project >funzion< in 2003. his aim is to combine the production techniques of idm and clicks and cuts with the rhythmicalbforms of techno and microhouse. the result thus far has been a tricky, warm and energetic sound that has caught the attention of highly regarded labels such as telegraph, sushitech, and now alphahouse. funzions >stelle< ep consists of two warm, intricate, and percussive club stompers that showcase his grasp on complex rhythms and playful melodies. >random kisses< is a moody vocal excursion into the mountains of your imagination. a meandering track that suits open air parties as well as it does big dark discos, this is a spring season hit. >random love< starts out as a charming shuffley ballad, only to subtly morph into a looming synth rave monster, all the while keeping its playful and hypnotizing grip on the dancefloor. bomb alert!

support by alexi delano, gregor tresher, monika kruse, tony rohr, holgi star, tim xavier, afrilounge, and many more.. shokh is back again. like mr. jekyll-and-hyde he presents us two floor bombs on the brand new imprint rompecabeza music. on one side the playful “snuka”, which you can brand as pure techno funk, on the other side “mr. piper”, which packs an enormous saw tooth and where mr. shokh decides to take you on a loopy journey. the berlin based booking agency rompecabeza will surely supply more big tunes on its new in-house label in the near future. rompecabeza = rambazamba

perfect for 7 inch singel vinyl .. adapter from the big hole the the noramt standard hole ... great stuff

as pete tong said on guilty during one of his recent radio shows there is no better record to start your weekend!this is the biggest buzz record of the moment

>miscalate< starts off as a smooth, deep house record but quickly chooses a darker path and a big rumbling bassline takes over with sharp electronics following closely behind. as with all the production work of audiofly and paul harris, its the interesting structure and musical side of the track that really makes it stands out. partial arts, a new project from ewan pearson and al usher, take control and not just remix but remake the track! theyve delivered something rather special. a very unique, different and exciting production that will surely be turning heads and pricking the ears of many

big with: damian lazarus, kiki, jimpster, ripperton, p.toile, m.monday daso franke, a fellow well known not only for his fantastic releases on mbf and connaisseur, but also for his furious live-sets, sets out to bring the noise again. after having been inspired by the nerdy world of old-schoolish adventure games for his last release, he uses the dissolute world of absinthe as an afflatus this time. he takes us to a land where alluring little green fairies buzz around and people cut their ears off under absinthe’s massively woozy influence. thujon: the impact of well-made absinthe depends on its concentration of thujon. it can best be described as a kind of heightened clarity of mind and vision. and this is what this track is all about - 100% thujon! louche is the name of the cloudy effect you achieve by adding water to spirits, which contain anise, like absinthe does. this track starts with a low-key groove, which forces up to a mental dance affaire, including a genuine rocking daso-esque break

mxs by bimbo jones & eddie thoneick** as pete tong said on >guilty< during one of his recent radio shows: there is no better record to start your weekend!this isthe biggest buzz record of the moment!... we say no more!

pushing electro house! the heavy disco mix for the bigroom houseclubs and the scandall mix for the rest !

one of the biggest tracks from 2006 getting a fresh set of remixs courtesy of some serious chicago house all stars. green velvet s -shake and pop- blew up dancefloors worldwide with its cool vocals, and now this ep features some real funky dancefloor pleasers. mark grant sets it off with a vocal and dub mix that highlight the vocal and the quirky electro bass funk from the original. meanwhile the big poppa dj sneak turns in a jacked up mix that focuses nicely on the vocal from the original. some very hot dancefloor material, don t sleep on this one

played by: ricardo villalobos, luciano, magda, dan curtin, zip,.. its been a great year soo far for the talented mr. haze, as he continues to push the boundries of electronic dance music. this record is a clear cut example of why things started to get real, real hot all of a sudden. with this special release, jay s first release on the label he started 7 years ago - jay translates what it is like to be >big pimping< in berlin, germany. jay moved to the electronic music mecca just 3 years ago and has steadily advanced through one of the most competitive market places with lightining speed. so in some sense this record >berlin pimping part2< is another fond dedication record to the city which provides soo much for jay. (the first was jay s record on german label musik krause >berlin pimpin/love affair<)

montreal born native alex hender started his career in the mid 90s. after watching one of his friend djing at a high school dance party, he decided to buy a pair of turntables, a mixer and began shopping some records. its in a record shop,at the age of 15, that he discovered the sound of new york and chicagos house.alex has been a resident in some of montreals most famous clubs. the legendary limelight was his first home. he also played at redlite, gravity and a lot of other gigs around the city. being a buyer for years in a record shop, alex got in touch and upfront with whats hot & whats the next big thing.his musical style got a lot of influence from the funky chicago stuff and the dirty german minimal tech sound.since then, aside from djing and collecting an amazing amount of vinyls, alex focuses more into production, to reach another step in his career. we can only expect greater things to come from him in the future

the first release on the new sushitech sub division pariter. produced by alejandro lopez (minimise) who hails from gijon in northern spain. alejandros first meeting with electronic music was in the mid 90s when he started listening to detroit techno and chicago house. this is where alejandro has taken his influences from to compose his own music. this ep holds 3 incredible techno tunes. on the a side you will find poligono, using a dark twisting melody over immense techno beats all tied together with a bassline that is sure to sound fat on any big sound system. this track sounds better and better every time we play it! on the flip side you will find another 2 great tracks, bigudi is another big techno tune with a driving bassline and vocal cuts all fused together with an amazing rhythm. this tune is definitely in the right direction of where techno is going in the world today! the last track on the ep estaferia continues on with the groove of the ep with some lush programming. let the music do the talking

legendary series to be continued with 2 acts from the uk. first >cool cuts< releases have been much in demand, and peeps are still trying to get hold of them - if you are lucky! a side is a brilliant track by the b-siderz - in the vein of some more proper house sounding stuff with nice sublime guitars struggling their way thru 2 big breaks complemented with an pushing b line and sophisticated acid sounds in between. other side is our beloved ma saski from manchester with an already massive electro tinged primetime stomper. the guys from the >tribal gathering< camp play around with some b lines emphasising those little but most effectual breaks through a wicked male poetry. mind you, that tune goes on and on without getting lame - dj linus always starts his sets with that tune - big!

after his very big release >l.e.a.<, which was featured worldwide in playlists and compilations, he turns this one into another big epic 2 tracker with that typical dj all*star appeal to it. soundscapes with punchy b line hoovers and sublime melodies wisely arranged into a peak time tune for either small or big clubs. b side is remixed by >kleinkariert<, who are a.m. him self and john disco - tested and hyped already by dj linus, phonique and earland oye!

the song starts with moroder alike bassline before the sweet but downright mean vocals from kiki kicks in, followed by more dark italo flavoured synthlines and pads before finally reaching a climax of humoungous propotions after the break. kiki delivers the vocal in a dark manner where you actually ask yourself is this the kiki we know.. scary !allready on heavy rotation by ewan pearson, tiefschwarz, … will be big!

all tracks written, mixed & produced by guillaume manbell & greg kazubski. as expected, this cool little number is starting to do big things!! alan braxe s discovery guillaume manbell aka archibell will take the world by storm with this new, fresh, amazing project. gritty analog synths chugging along to solid jackin backbeats in a very electro-flavored style, layering in more synth lines as the track progresses for some abrasive electro-techno action.strong supports coming from dj hell, pedro winter, chloe, mr oizo... this is an essential release coming out from the new electro scene, do not pass on this

it should be indicative of how big or influencial a genre is becoming when you start getting dubstep records from sweden probably one of the least grimey countries on this planet apart from issues of genre politics musically this ep has got nothing lesser in comparison to its uk counterparts its dark dirty and not shy to pile up those bass frequencies and its hard not to notice those arabic undertones going on through the whole record (sb)
