b1 - closer: another super track. heavy beat once it drops, nice deep bass, shuffling percussion and a brilliant vocal sample.
b2 - no you: the heavy beat theme continues on this track, nice bongo percussion and bass line is equally as heavy as the beat. cool chopped vocal sample, deep disco house at its very best!

deep space orchestra have been carving out a very nice name for themselves over the past year, and alongside the likes of cottam and krl it&#700,,,s safe to say that they are helping to establish an exciting new movement of raw, detroit-inspired house. the diy approach is very much a part of their ethic, as is the underground feel and aesthetic which imbues their own use of weapons label as well as their recent releases on similarly minded vinyl-orientated labels such as foto and kirk degiorgio&#700,,,s legendary art. the release we have here is perhaps their most refined music yet, showing a development in their production level on two tracks which are brimming with a warmth and fatness whilst retaining that critical raw edge which only a handful of the most exacting producers seem capable of. lo pan builds around a fat, bouncing bass line and a brilliantly lilting groove created by straight 808 hats and shuffling shakers. the feel keeps shifting throughout the song, sometimes superswung, sometimes straight and driving, all the while simple detroit strings build and analogue arps are layered up building the tension in the arrangemen

nice price deal !!! new label from original bristol purple w0wer and planet mu dubstepper – gemmy. 2 hard-hitting riddims ready to mash up the dance – fresh from gemmys hard drive, straight onto wax!

nice price deal !!! yes yes people, we are back! its been a while, but we are going to be hitting you with some seriously good tunes this year, so watch this space. anyway, on to the music: if you like your tunes big fat and heavy like an elephant on steroids, then get ready for an absolute pasting from new boy on the circuit, depone! depone is a producer that has really caught our ear at the z audio towers of late and when you hear these tunes, i m sure you will understand why. all 3 tunes are fierce, dirty, gritty, disgusting and overall very well produced. the great thing about depone is that he manages to create in your face music without pointlessly wobbling the lfo filter. theres some real depth to this young talent and i m sure you will be hearing some more great music from depone in the very near future.

nice price deal !!! nastynasty a.k.a. jasper reeder is a us bay area dubstep producer whose planet mu debut pits a slither of pitch-altered mournful vocal melody against a rough modulated bassline and 8 bit chimes, to catchy and memorable effect.
on the b side - heterotic - a.k.a. mike paradinas and lara rix-martin put together a remix that is altogether more upbeat, pitching up and looping the sample while building loose panned drums and a rushing arpeggio into an optimistic almost romantic crescendo with sweet chords and glassy tones that sit somewhere between juke and synth pop.

nice price deal !!! genetix are back with an ep that will rattle your chest with bass and make your head explode. i can confirm, this has happened too many of my friends and has got me in a great deal of trouble. >beast mode<, my pick of the lot, is a collaboration with persist and is an absolute assault of disgusting basslines, switches and filthy beats produced at the highest end. then >termination< and >stealth< offer up more terrifying, futurist and hard edged dubstep that is certainly not for anyone with a heart condition. strictly dance floor bizzle!

nice price deal !!!

maurizio vitello returns to metroline with some seriously deep bass-driven techno. a devastating ep. the lead track is a driving, stripped down techno groove. full-bodied toms and a seriously fat bass keep the track rolling while filtered vocals and understated synths add the dynamics. heavy! looking good keeps that groove going with a bassline so heavy you will have to pick yourself up off the floor. a bubbling percussion break evolves throughout the track, building in complexity, but kept in check by some nice metronomic hats at the high end. on movers maurizio lets the drums do the talking. everything locks tightly around the solid kicks. the multi-layered break adds a sweet cubano vibe that you simply wont be able to shake off. let the bass drrrrooopppp! pleased? yes we are. this playful track is going set the summer floors on fire. vocal samples weave in and out of the mix, and sharp-as-a-needle 80s-tinged synths stab through the deep, heavy rhythm track to awesome effect.

nice price deal !!! after the success of render obendiences first release, we continue with the second. all three tracks comes from italy. lula circus, maiki & angelo draetta and picx are the artists who made this moderna ep. again vinyl only release, perfect for the summer time

nice price deal !!! with again and again, the second album from the swedish-american outfit thieves like us, the band sculpts their vintage electronic sound into honest, sentimental pop.

nice price deal !!! we are very proud to announce the debut release of a truly outstanding new musical project called >the goon show<. not much is known about this project, as the tracks reached us totally out of the blue, so to speak. the project consists of two experienced electronic wizards situated in berlin and is the first joint effort in the music world. their debut 12 inch features the wonderful and almost impossible to categorize track >angel band<, or as american music journalist philip sherburne put it:> the production on is really spongy and weird and enveloping, and the voice works so well with it, , this is really good, and i dont say that lightly!<. further admirers and supporters are the djs and producers osunlade, efdemin, adultnapper and many others. >angel band< comes in three versions, an acappella, a dub and the blasting original. as a bonus track, which is not just a b-side, but would be an amazing a-side on many other releases comes the beautifully melancholic >the grass<, of which our dear friend aksel schaufler aka superpitcher has said: >i love it and was in tears while listening to -the grass- !< . limited copies, get them while they re out there!

shadow ray is best known in house music circles as the co-producer of the oasis 1, 13, 13 1/2 and 14 releases with omar s, although he is also well known to the ryan correctional facility for more nefarious reasons. the detroit-based producer has spent the past four years at ryan earning not only a hard knocked life but a trade in sound engineering. that was until alex smith (aka omar s) made a presentation to the facility s parole board to commission a remix of his recent hit >heres your trance now dance< as part of rays work release program! rumour has it the parole board was inhabited by at least one old school house head, and we re delighted to see alexs idea come to fruition, with shadow ray really nailing it with this remix. staying true to original s shimmering melody, ray opts to bolster the bottom end with a raw bassline that creates a nice, fat rolling groove

colombage is a new division of fachwerk records focusing on more house releated tracks. like before fachwerk and mike dehnert stay close to home with selecting contributing artist for his label... after long time buddys sasha rydell and roman lindau he adds a new artist to his roster - romans long time friend reno wurzbacher. mr wurzbacher delivers a smooth warm track that feels like a warm breeze on a summer night. friendly and nice! flip side is done by mike dehnert himself with a typical track for him... but lets be honnest, not so housey after all :-) techy chords, fierce percussion with nice rides and slowly building... thats how we like our mike dehnert tracks!

nice price deal !!! the music of the cologne based duo kitbuilders can be described as electro with scifi-punkrock-energy and a grebo edge. a remarkable element in the tracks are the vocals of female singer ripley. in the kitbuilders-cosmos you will also find the sparks in their moroderphase, chris and cosey, neu and devo. but their music is not 80s retro stuff, they include a lot of futuristic and fresh elements in their songs. after a handful of 12 inch singles and compilation appearances on labels like electrecord, world electric, vertical and ersatz audio, >wake up< was the debut full length from the duo. the us magazine xlr8r called it >...an excellent hybrid of the past and present<. alongside american outfits like adult. and fischerspooner, kitbuilders are at the forefront of the worldwide electro revolution. equal parts moroder and liquid sky, the duo of benway and ripley fluctuate between adrenaline-rush bpm 909 beats, fluttering sci-fi arpeggiations and tense, sinister moodiness.

sasha carassi is one of the best italian techno djs and producers. since 2002 his immense output gives the worldwide techno scene a lot of exciting material. numerous releases on labels like drumcode, sleaze, respekt recordings, 8 sided dice or driving forces he gained a lot of attention and in the following teamed up with artists like joseph capriati ,adam jay, brian sanhaji,spektre or virgil enzinger. his latest release on harthouse called >white sucker< last year was massive. now we are absolutely positive that sasha carassi, founder of globox and cofounder of phobiq should be part of the harthousefamily. with the a-side track 3 44 sasha takes off with everything important to a good techno track: a nice innocent intro takes place and blows everything off with the entering beats and percussions. the twisted use of science fiction sounds sets interesting highlights what makes the track a real peak time pearl. the first track on the b side continues energy and charakter of >344< but turns the meaning of synthsizer use into a bit more psychological torture porn.

when delorean toured with teengirl fantasy last spring they told us about a song that had really blown them away. when they shared it with us we understood why. it was called >cheaters< and sounded like an instant classic. very different to the trademark psychedelic jams of the duo, the song was homage to classic chicago house from a modern perspective. built around layers of blissful synths and borrowing the vocals of first committees >cheaters never win<, it had that kind of energy that we sometimes miss in contemporary dance music. later that summer, john talabot visited new york and became aware that the track was going to be released by true panther sounds only as part of the album >7am<. something sparked inside us. we felt it was not fair that such an incredible track had to share its vinyls grooves with other songs so we thought it would be nice to dedicate a full maxi side to it.

and we continue the album package with the second part of his debut album called >durch und durch<! he has already made his name in the music biz with his releases on afulab like bango banger, bam bam bam, abfahrt ep and numerous others, but always delivers his most advanced and progressive productions on his motherlabel afulab.
