subjecting itself to the essence of musical rummaging and the sole joy of musical discovery, dive ii swim was created with the vision to compile productions from already well-established producers together with gems from upcoming talents. eclectic and inclusive, it’s set out to be a compilation that should fit in most bags and shelves. emphasising its musical core, previous notions and expectations regarding the persona of a producer is of no importance, all of them will take on a new alias before they dive to swim.

as a label who encourages exploration and collaboration, it was with great excitement that we received the new project of these guys. mainly, at first because you find here the perfect amount of atmospheric elements with sustaining rhythmic. both tracks fit in many situations, from building excitement and tension to creating a very special moment, using beautiful voices. in those two cases, both tracks here fit perfectly. while the title brings the idea “everything is lost”, this ep has everything ready to bring hotness to clubs.

pedro abrantes and valdemar pereira’s intense and cold approach in the next release of e.f.a.e. would fit perfectly as the soundtrack to david cronenberg’s film crash (1997), guiding the listener through a world of perversion and obsession. a raw experience, usually of violence, where human nature is expressed through old rhythm boxes and cheap guitar pedals, sounding dirty, fuzzy, with an healthy disregard for rules of fidelity or even functionality. gam / coletivo vandalismo emerges like a sonic terrorist cell, out to implode traditional notions of dance music infusing a sense of dread and menace.

its the music of the space that extends between oceans and mountain slopes. its the music of the space that is much bigger and much more adventurous than the four walls of a club look like. its the latest record on acker, and it orbits around a song from il civetto. the band from berlin is a wonderfully multicultural bunch. their sound is reminiscent of gypsy, folk or swing, but at the same time it doesnt really fit any of these labels. liberté ana is a perfect example. monolink turns this track into a groovy downbeat tune that vibrates much higher than its low bpm count - the perfect soundtrack for laid-back afternoons or afterhours. pophop does what he does best: party. however, between the catchy bassline and the tight percussions of his remix theres still a lot of space for the soul of liberté ana. umami goes even further and creates an ecstatic banger that has everything it takes to be played during the prime time on the dance floor.

opilec music is proud to bring you the first ever remix album of san francisco s cult synthesizer-punk legends, the units! one of america s first synthesizer bands and pioneers of a genre now known as synthpunk, the units were notable for their use of synthesizers in place of guitars, and multimedia performances featuring multiple projections of satirical, instructional films critical of conformity and consumerism... predating mtv and 25 years before the birth of youtube! this is a definitive collection of over 24 of the band s original songs written between 1977 and 1984 and remixed for the dance floor in 2010 by a renowned and international cast of over 40 djs, producers and bands active in the contemporary club scene. this project celebrates the futuristic units along with the innovative djs that first played them.

the fouth and final limited edition delicacies 12inch this year is, in an slightly counter-intuitive twist, not taken from the forthcoming smd album, welcome to sideways. it didn t quite fit in with the flow of the track selection on the album, but we felt it really warranted its own separate release particularly because of the ace matrixxman remix. both versions are driving, minimal techno, scattered through with melodic bursts but matrixxman s lsd rework pushes the bpms and frenetic energy to new levels

the term cosmic classic has been banded around increasingly in the last decade, with its modern disco retake, thankfully, soon running out of steam. however, in michael chapmans lescudjack we see the genius of daniele baldelli in finding obscure records that do not fit the traditional dance floor and making them work.

the first release by parisian iconoclast joakim for his friends and european colleagues at dj tennis life and death records is a miniature nocturne for dance floor meditation, a cascade of unfurling fizzy moods and introspection, finally tuned and expertly rendered by the electronic music maestro. -i met manfredi (tennis) through luke jenner (ex the rapture) in nyc. when manfredi has a few days off his busy touring schedule, he comes to my studio to work with luke on their collaboration project. we usually talk about synths, food, dj gossip and complain about espressos in nyc. about 6 months ago we were eating korean fried chicken and manfredi asked me if i’d like to do something for his label life & death. at the time i had a bunch of club tunes i started working on and somehow had a feeling some of them could be a fit for life & death so i played those and manfredi very quickly picked one, daemon. i thought putting out something on life & death was at the same time kind of odd (and if you didnt notice yet, i like when things are unexpected) and totally appropriat

london based odd are a natural fit for infuse with their rolling hypnotic grooves featuring in the sets of the fuse crew for the past few years. their cold fusion ep kicks off with get away, the ep s vinyl only track, a deep edged shuffler, custom fit for those hazier dance-floor moments. roll the beats has a distinctly tripped out sensibility whilst making moves ups the energy with a sprightly house-edged bounce.

after his feature on oxias unity ep earlier this year, mannheims own steffen deux is finally back on 8bit with a brand new double tracker, exclusively remixed by tech house don curatero. fountain of youth ep is made for the club and will make all speakers pump: the original mix hooks with a subby rolling bass and fat drums, tightly arranged & perfectly coordinated. peachick is a laidback groove, striving from disorted fx and fading spheres - this tool is ready to fit the set almost anytime. curateros more forward fountain remix rounds the package to a timeless ep for djs and dancers alike.

the best records have a story, they form part of a journey, different characters emerge and the good music always rises to the fore. in the case of the latest record from scottish producer jack eye jones and the legendary junior sanchez this is certainly true. cocaine blues is a step into the unknown in some respects but in another way, it s a record that seems to fit in perfectly with todays electronic music landscape.

donato dozzy and neel s spazio disponibile keeps up the pressure here with a fine fourth ep of 2016, this time from mike parker. the label - which also has a party of the same name in rome attached to it - deals in heady techno, so the geophone label owner and new york artist parker is a perfect fit with his always deep offerings.

minimood continues with a deep piece of heady minimal from esteem german producer sascha dive with a mesmerizing remix by celebrated dutch producer ion ludwig. the after the storm ep is released on vinyl only. after the storm is ten sumptuous minutes of moody and atmospheric deep minimal house with warbling synths, meandering drums and spooky, spaced out atmospheres. the drums roll on free from any friction and the pads are delicate, elegant affairs that circle round you and leave you hanging in a wide open space. vocals sounds like those from a spaceship s pa and lend the whole thing a sense that you are voyaging through the galaxies. it is a truly burrowing track that gets right into your mind, body and soul. ion ludwig s remix is quicker and more synthetic, with waify pads, gently breaking waves and fizzing little modular synth lines that are crisp and rhythmic and will fit perfectly into a set by the likes of ricardo villalobos. this is classy and subtle music that is stripped back and slow burning yet has a huge impact.

played by ricardo villalobos -- bass culture welcomes another industry heavyweight to its roster of talent with this new release, which follows hot on the heels of the killer 50th release by mr. g. this latest release comes from long time friend of bass culture owner d julz and dutch techno hero steve rachmad. steve is renowned for his funky take on techno, honing his skills as a dj and producer over 25 years and establishing himself as a respected and hugely talented artist in the process. the first of two tracks on this new ep is entitled * sabre song* - a stomping, illuminating cut straight out of the rachmad school of detroit-influenced techno. d julz heard steve play the track at womb in tokyo and had to sign it on the spot. *sabre song* is a perfect fit for bass culture with its groovy bassline, cutting hats and * big band* instrumentation. on the flip d julz himself contributes an edit of one of steves nineties classic, a favourite of his and one which both men agreed should be given a release. pumping out at a speedy tempo, the force is strong with * activa*, transporting us back to the rave era with its catchy melody, and retro physique. summer vibes all the way with this one.

together melbourne pair amin payne and sean deans form apsd, and they debut in quite impressive form with this digital dust album for hot shot sounds. inkswel and benny badge s label has developed into the prime source for what they call -drum machine soul music- and apsd are a perfect fit. some 11 tracks deep, digital dust features contributions from the voice of fat freddy s drop himself, joe dukie, as well as miles bonny, cazeaux oslo, silent jay and more. yet it s deans and payne s innate mastery of a glistening brand of funk across various tempos which shines through on this album.

this up and coming producer is already a legend amongst the crew of techno freaks in brooklyn. with previous releases on local imprint lovers rock, and releases slated for proibito and exotic dance under the the aliases dj python and dj xanax, dj wey aka brian pinyero has contributed a massive 12” to bank records. the a side “song for masahiro” is dedicated to masahiro ueda, a dj and friend who graced the bk scene by way of japan. it’s a bass heavy tune with melodic pads floating in the forefront amongst the occasional cheering sample. it s perfect for either opening or closing a set midsummer. in contrast, the b side opens with “flow on.” with its distorted kicks, relentless claps and hypnotic bells one could imagine hearing it on a nightmarish carnival ride...fit that into a set. the record ends on an electro tip with spaced out pads, backwards samples and classic electro style drum patterns. distinct in sound and diverse in approach, don t sleep on the homie dj wey.

following up with the llarose ep by joefarr comes a split ep with different takes on what should make you jack. dar embarks, a duo hailing from chicago lay out two tracks as a precursor to more to come. tracky and acidic spyboss will appease the inner bleep while zeddmore will fit and hit with the heaviest you ve got. johan platt of finland covers the opposite side of this ep with two attacks on jack himself. ranttali is a throwback to armani and acv days of distortion and punch while wailer slows it down and lets the swing fill the space.

nice price deal !!! sweet n candy takes up the remix duties and delivers and outstanding minimal-tech house mix full of warm percussive shuffles. meanwhile on the flip side j alexanders original mix shows us his more techno inspired original. with a sharp kick drum and 909 percussion this mix is sure to fit into any late night set taking the dance floor on a deeper journey. >paradise lost< completes this release and if deep is your bag then they dont come much deeper than this, a unique track that fits somewhere between deep house and techno, dark little vocal cuts fit nicely along warm pads, massive sub base, quirky string samples and 808 toms.

for the 11th release 7777 presents the ghost miners remixes. for these remixes i offered each producer samples from different songs from the 2 ghost miners records. instead of doing straight forward remixes of a single song, i put forth the proposal for each artist to make their own version of a ghost miners song from scratch or using any samples they feel like. contributors include 3 of my favorite producers. 2 in demand artists, fit siegel and andreas gehm and one new comer, brian thrash. andreas gehm s version is a standard acid gehm gem. calling in the chords from the originals mixed with standard gehm acid brilliance. in fit siegel s version you ll find the perfect pure underground dance sound. featuring ray-7 on hand drums fit constructs a remix that combines elements of classic detroit and chicago sound while keeping the attitude and acid aesthetic of the original material. on the b side brian thrash, controlling his analogue arsenal, takes you on an epic acid journey traversing through the underground and space. thank you for your time. - jared wilson

my favorite robot/cocoon mainstays villanova ramp up for their first release on offwith two original tracks and an appearance by raw tech aficionado echonomist on remix duty. the french duo stray from their prevailing blend of sensual house, crafting a darker aesthetic fit for the label s newfound coordinates.

greg belson s divine disco is a snapshot in time encapsulating the raw power of a spiritual performance, set to the pulsating 4/4 rhythms that were in vogue with the dance floors of the day. tip! labels like savoy played a key part in identifying artists that fit nicely into this brand new style with performers like shirley finney and the gospelaires, both of whom were established within the scene, but carried the disco torch brightly with their tunes featured here. divine disco also paints a picture of the lesser known acts that privately released their message to the hopeful masses, such as the gospel ambassadors and the inspirational souls, whose recording budgets would have been significantly less than any major label.

ned ludd, possibly born edward ludlam, is the person from whom, it is popularly claimed, the luddites took their name. in 1779, ludd is supposed to have broken two stocking frames in a fit of rage. after this incident, attacks on the frames were jokingly blamed on ludd. when the luddites emerged in the 1810s, his identity was appropriated to become the folkloric character of captain ludd, also known as king ludd or general ludd, the luddites alleged leader and founder. disclaimer: this record was made by real immigrants

originally released as a bandcamp-only cdr through his label subsubtropics, dieckmanns showcases a blatant disregard for conventional production in favour of a fierce and brutal sound that combines high-resonance eq meddling with crunchy, uncharacteristic samples. each track squashed into a hole in which it doesnt fit, constantly pressurised and straining down each crack and seem. a tour de force in collateral techno.

set sail onto a cartoon ocean on a quest to an imaginary world in wide as the moonlight, warm as the sun. a perfect fit for daedelus’ label magical properties, the new album by goodnight cody (of team supreme) is an experience of powerful imagery and pure poetic whimsy.

following massive props recently via industry tastemakers from fact to four tet, pedram s music continues to define him as an ever growing and exciting producer to check out and with his latest track cloned this holds truer than ever. pedram doesn t fit into one particular electronic genre easily swimming up stream against the steady flow of tempo, style and sound.

ltd nice price - jon convex kicks off his exciting new convex industries imprint with two of his own solo productions >bump and grind< & >closer<. as one half of instra:mental there is no surprise with the sonic qualities of these tracks, an amalgamation of raw electronica/techno and bass music, or as he likes to call it, epm (electronic party music). both tracks feature convexs trademark pitched vocals, thumping kicks, rounded basslines and twisted glitch edits fit for any dancefloor, a must for any dj that wants to get a crowd moving.

in 2015 musician, producer, dj, record collector and tigersushi head honcho joakim played for the first time at mareh festival in boipeba, brasil. like many before him and many since, he found the experience a transformative one. and why not? so many like-minded souls gathered together on a remote island in bahia listening to the sounds of amazing djs while dancing barefoot in idyllic coastal settings all night long. what s not to like? it s quite a concept. in the moment of that experience, joakim vowed to head straight to the studio on his return home to try and recapture that magical vibe, which he did. and true to his word he offered it back to mareh for release on their imprint. a musical gift from the heart. the wonderful percussion and drums characteristic of joakim s productions drift in and around the mix and sit gently alongside the sound of the waves. beautiful arps reach out and capture the glittering stars at night and the first glorious sign of light at sunrise as the party continues. underneath everything the bassline continues to punch through, blending primeval carnival vibes with an electronic sensibility. lovingly mastered and beautifully pressed onto 10 inch vinyl in manila covers, this limited edition release is worthy of any record collection. it also represents a little piece of the magic that is boipeba, and will certainly fit perfectly into those balearic and adriatic settings too.

das komplex emerged from thin air last year with a series of tasteful 12 s that piqued ears from producer peers and vinyl seekers alike. near me , the latest offering from the polish impresario s coastal collection of body movers and mind melters, is a warmly welcomed fit for young adults 10th release. openwork socks kicks off the festivities with a sultry slab of machine music for soft humans. while tortuous thoughts dusts off the flutes, strings and soulful vocal samples for an all out disco-boogie jam that will fill floors with ease. the title track, near me, tips its cap to kraut and liquid liquid backbone elements as it chugs its way into a squelching 12-minute opus. finally pralina pounces on its way out with dubbed-out funk licks and slick phase shifts.

kicking cheerfully against the compression and conformity of the modern digital age, antique futurist analogue wizards metamono return with their finest, fittest album to date. comprising jono podmore, aka kumo and sometime collaborator with can members irmin schmidt and jaki liebezeit, paul conboy and fine artist mark hill, the crystal palace based trio enchanted audiences during 2014 with their live soundtracks to secrets of nature, early 20th century short films using new photography techniques to reveal the processes of the natural world including the lives of cuckoos and barn owls. many of the pieces they wrote feature on the new album. it was an ideal fit for the metamono sound - organic, playful, basking in the joys of new mechanical possibilities. recalling the early electronic adventures of raymond scott, brian eno, cabaret voltaire, cluster and acid house but always bearing their unmistakable bespoke signature, metamono are as unmissable live as they are on vinyl. do not miss this!

taking a brief detour from his normal abrasive distorted sound, pinion showcases his broad spectrum as an artist with the desire ep. the title track, desire (half measure),starts out of the gate with a thunderous half beat 808 coupled with a swinging hihat pattern that slowly works ethereal vocal slices into the forefront, accompanied with a modulating synth pad that evolves into a defining melody. the sister track, desire (full measure), has very similar characteristics as the original, but allowing a little more edge for the dancefloor to build on. the third original track, recollection shifts gears quite drastically with a 135 bpm stormer with enough soul and melody to make the uncharacteristically fast tempo seem inconsequential. last, comes kyle geiger on remix duties to round out the ep with a housier take on desire, but still enough bite to fit nicely into any techno set.

keeping up the urgent pace set by the strength in numbers collection, thema now turns to a modern master of the jakbeat, d’marc cantu. hailing from ann arbor on the fringes of detroit, cantu has worked for more than a decade developing a sound that carries the torch from the box jam originators of techno and house music. his first appearances were alongside the mighty tadd mullinix (better known as james t. cotton) with their 2 am/fm project, before bringing traxx into the fold for the x2 venture. as a solo artist cantu has shored up on labels as highly regarded as crème organization, m>o>s, nation and desire, bringing a rich, full-bodied sound laden with powerful synth hooks, crafty drum programming and a live, jammed-out delivery that overflows with imagination. given his adventurous tendencies and punchy midwestern finish, cantu is a perfect fit on thema and the six tracks that make up this record show a great deal of the diversity the man is capable of, from dancefloor burners to atmospheric introspections.
