>were back with a couple quick and sneaky mixes of >rave is king< for early 2009, we just didnt think you had enough of this anthem last year. first up on the take is atls blog wonderkid le castle vania who keeps things pretty close to the original but just a little heavier and a lot more twisted vocoder effects on the vocals. on the flip we have berlins nhan & taan with their electro boogie mix. on first listen the n&t mix sounds like a banger of a downtempo head-nodder but if come up into some serious electro madness primes for the most discerning djs with a flair for the old school. again we remind you, rave is still king !!! coco machete team<

reissue of album from 1975/a satisfying dramatics collection that includes their revised, campy version of me and mrs. jones, which had remained a staple of their live shows. astrology was riding high in the mid 70s, and (i m going by) the stars in your eyes provided fodder for astrological discussions as the guys poo poohed the differences in personality traits associated with the signs. a good balance of fast and slow tunes helps make this album a winner. good things dont come easy and never let you go are two frantic dancers that chug along faster than a speeding locomotive, while trying to get over losing you succeeds in treating losing your lover in a positive, uplifting way. the guys must have been loaded with material to keep this one off a 45. likewise for the aching, painful i cried all the way home, one of tony hesters best compositions, and easily the best ballad on the album.

watch ya feet is a beast with two heads as not one to do things by halves gavin has presented not one but two mixes, which both reflect the mood and scene of each of his homes. on the berlin mix, gavin captures the innocent late night energy and rawness of a berlin dancefloor. the twisted bassline, eerie tech house groove and warped noises roll along while the chicago-esque horns shriek out over the chaos. the london mix truly conjures up memories of londons finest venues, whether it be fabric or the end through to the afterhours of kubikle and retox. the groove here is a lot crisper than the german offering with the horn hook taking the to a euphoric climax. ewan pearson is one of the most highly acclaimed producers / remixers around, with past work including goldfrapp and the chemical brothers. his remix is one of pure energy as the track is transformed, through flawless production, into a sinister powerhouse of rising electro-techno that would feel at home in the sets of the likes of smagghe, weatherall, richards and mayer to name but a few.

chicago skyway first debuted on eargasmic with the digital release of >heavens and angels / purgatory<. here hes officially blessed into the eargasmic family with >bells< - an amazing composition of roland drum machines and vintage synths. reminiscent of the early house sound, he proves that this once deemed futuristic style still holds the test of time. on the flipside, >random thoughts< takes things back to the dirty sweat box basements. dcee (daryl cura) also contributes an edit to >bells< as well as his slow bangin >fourtone< as an added bonus.

warehouse find !! phat 2nd album release! minimal / tech smasher ...

mighty robot kicks off 2009 with the first vinyl release from french electro artists katelectro and jauzas the shining. the original version of >plug< is music custom-made for a dark room and a strobe, the spoken vocal adding to the sense of vague unease. newcomer ottomatique takes his >plug< rework in a different direction, retaining the vocal, adding some eighties synths and underpinning it all with a throbbing industrial meets disco bassline. the legendary ultradyne push the discomfort and discord up a notch in their remix, staying fairly true to the original, but drenching it with their unique sinister atmospherics. things take a reflective turn for closing track >art of noise< as ghosts crackle in the circuits and bring the collection to a close.

incl remixes by trus me and part time heroes

a track is a track, is a track is a track. but not every track is just a track. trackletons stands for much more than just tracks. on his debut ep you wont get to hear the substandard generic ordinary music that can be found everywhere. he has it all. disco, house, minimal, techno, you name it, he brings it. welcoming our latest act >trackleton< with his first appearance in form of his >jump ep< adds a variety of deep styles to this 3-tracker like we have not heard it a long while. the a side is a detroit influenced dance-floor sweeper with melodies so deep and beats so sharp that will leave no escape from making heads turning and get your feet dancing. b1 plays it cool all around the bass-line, laying things down in a old-school sounding manner - minimal to the bone, but done so cleverly to ensure that the basics simply sit right and will get you moving. the b-2 track then surprises you with more than just a hint of disco that will be standing out from the norm and creates a nice diversity. one does not often hear music so warm, on point, deep and yet fully dance-floor oriented

because of the keen idea to have at least 3 good releases within the first 10 records, it was clear that nobody else but phillip lauer would be able to sort this out on brontosaurus 10. so after #1 & #5 here is # 10 from the man. set your clock! its kinda metric. with 10 releases on his back the brontosaurus is no greenhorn anymore. we found out a few things: 1) we will never know if good music does not sell. >2) printing your own covers is an honourable thing to do but it is a lot of work! > 3) its still fun in the end so lets stick around for the next 10 releases and check this commanding 3 tracker.

limited nice price action !
- deus ex machina is a snarling, tension-filled track. pacey beats, drawn out builds and rolling snares all combine to provide the perfect footing for the rolling bassline to do its damage. this is a track to set alight the harder, darker sets. que loucura de som (that crazy sound) has a rolling, heads-down vibe with plenty of techno punch. classic sounding warm stabs provide the main hook to carry things along to a trademark mojo twisted breakdown with distorted sirens spinning things out

played by mathias kaden (freude am tanzen) // it s always good to start the new year with something special and in this case it s the release of the >underground railroad< 12inch from soulphiction. while his last album >do you overstand?< on berlins sonar kollektiv as well as his infamous remix for ian simmonds >whos blues< on musik krause is still in mind he went straight ahead on the work for his upcoming album… so >underground railroad< prepares us for his new lp coming in autumn 2009 on philpot! three tracks to choose from,>underground railroad , a lo-end house track with a thick atmosphere rooted in jazz… on the flip the first track is called < things to get by , a reminiscence to the classics, timeless house music to the bone! to round that up the last track >regrets< is a stripped down percussion tool, an >instrumental version< of the original contained on the album. enjoy!

rotterdam den haag connection december 2050. this time david vunks moustache records delivers le crunch ep (previously announced as biersmijt ep), produced by the one and only mr. pauli. the a1 side features the new hit called le crunch, a high energy italo wave track that rock your pants off for sure. second is a spacerockdisco remix of le crunch that listens to the name i dont need the bad things you do to me remix made by our hardrocking man alden tyrell. on the flip theres the dancefloor killer metalbass. straight ahead extreme basslines with rolling grooves, and to finish it off der alte brings us strong melodies and even stronger basslines with beats from paulies good old friend the tr 808. this record is cutted by ome lex v. coeverden. 500 copies pressed! watch out! dont play this record underwater!

dj dealer & lisa millett are on fire!!! the third single from dj dealers highly acclaimed album joyride is a gospel tinged vocal featuring londons finest, lisa millett. the pair loved this project so much that they recorded two separate lead vocals for the song. the main mix and the tribute mix are the fruits of these labors. nycs jon cutler delivers some outstanding peak hour remixes, and up and coming producer/remixer, uncle milty, drops some serious heat. uncle milty is a resident at chicagos legendary night boom boom room - this party has been going strong for over 17 years and now milty is flexing his mighty studio muscles. this is just the first of many outstanding things you will be hearing from uncle milty!

on some things you can always rely on - ruede hagelstein s dog vs. dog series belongs to it without doubt. and he is also not disappointing with the no.4. on the contrary - hagelstein offers us two very different tracks, but which have one thing in common: quality! aerohonica appears unusually housy and melancholic, whereas scissor mouse is a breaker in ruedes typically manner. both tracks are high class floor bombs! the same procedere as every year? - with dog, with pleasure.

the 2007 masterpiece by us new metal heroes!!! includes hit singles bleed it out, shadow of the day and what i ve done!!

dickes debut von steven beyer !! eine mischung aus someone else, minus und dem gewohnt druckvollen minimal von lordag, mike wall & andy kohlmann tragen dazu bei !! not only a pocket rocker:)

ruede hagelsteins the modest theme has proven to be one of souvenirs most provocative releases so far. released in the summer, the tracks dramatic horn hook is so epic it belongs in a science fiction film and as a piece of forward thinking techno, it ranks among one of souvenirs best. now the track is back with a remix from souvenir spearheads tiefschwarz alongside a new track from berlin based ruede. semikolon is another dark and dubby deep tech-housy outing for ruede that begins with a dramatic spoken word by naneci and ominous organ stabs. as the track progresses it takes on a chicago house vibe re-imagined at 10am in the panorama bar. an urgent bell begins to ring through the track raising the tension as the vocal intones a surreal chant before giving way to huge synth stabs that lead the track into a slow motion emotional explosion. just when things can get any more hectic the crescendo sinks to silence compressing the energy before the beats emerge back in their earlier deep house guise. ali and bast schwarz take their turn at remixing the modest theme fresh from their incendiary remix of emad kamandians kamanche for souvenir 012. the signature dramatic horn riff remains albeit injected with new percussion lending the track a tough tech house appeal that places it within the context of 2008s underground house sound. both tracks are another addition to souvenirs impressive collection of music aimed at the head just as much as they are at the heart and feet.

both tracks have been huge all summer and now sees their full release alongside the massive sebastien leger remix.

after more than one year and a couple of releases on sistrum recordings and morphine records, ksoul is finally back with a new project called kindasoul to launch his new label kinda soul recordings. the first release will be a split alongside scott ferguson who kindly gave the chance to licence these tracks from ferrispark records. the aim of the label is to focus on the deep side of house music without any kind of compromise, trying to highlight some of the best producers around plus some promising newcomers. the concept is also based on reaching out all the people who helped me in the last years to make it real in order to create a sort of worldwide family around our faithfully loved house music. you know who you are... ksoul!

berlin-based belgian producers sierra sam & marcus vector present the debut release of d.i.y. (dumb irresponsible youth), their new house-oriented project. sierra sam (toysforboys, einmaleins, trapez) and marcus vector (toysforboys, nomor, playground) recently released their first joint effort for contexterrior. working together once again, this time around theyve put aside their usual dark techno inclinations, opting instead for uninhibited house led by analog percussion sounds. drumroll, please… >pimp my saw< is a frenzy layers and layers of toms, kicks, steeldrums and clicks. >screw it up< is a more melodic affair, with the classic build-up and tension that defines classic house material, plus a hint of latino finesse. on the flip, >hammer of love< closes things out with a shuffly balance between the organic and the artificial, with looming atmospheric ambience to set a darker tone. these three tracks are the perfect tools to use where the sun dont shine. (that would be the nightclub, you pervert!)

back with another of their much loved eps - the knee deep guys dig deep to satisfy your dancefloors yet again courtesy of the french love ep. kicking off with >all night< a charged up bullet with hooky vocal loop and infectious synthy lick, >vibin< is exactly that - a stabby low end bassline powers on alongside the sweet warming melody whilst the whole groove builds and builds leading to the chant-fuelled breakdown. rounding things off, >sweet love< has that epic crowd pleasing vibe you will have come to expect from the kd guys… again its simplicity at its best using a hooky riff throughout, and allowing the groove to shine. a power-packed ep in 3 different flavours

the return of the wolf, gartner steps things up with a peak time party anthem which will do his growing reputation no harm whatsoever. right from the get go, we have been warning that the mysterious wolfgang gartner was the name to watch and with each release, he has been proving us right

if you like electronic music and youve lived in paris for the last 15 years, theres no way you dont know that man. djulz start playing the very firstparis raves back in 1992. since that time he never stoped running to make things happen in his hometown. hes also the oldest resident of rex club with his party bass culture. today djulz is releasing more and more great music after having produced eps and remixes for label such as music for freaks, paper recordings, 20:20 vision, poker flat, ovum, real tone or intacto, djulz is releasing, fleurette, his new 12inch on circus company. fleurette is a sweet, naïve and housy track. the track is build up over a piano loop which leeds us to some children vocals. all that is surrounded by a strong and precussive rythmic stuffed with a beautifull ride. its defeinitively the kind of track which gives you the power to stick a smile on everybodies face. on b side comes the fleurette tobias. remix. for sure you know the man behind mythical releases on logistic records and more recently wagon repair. hes also behind the electronic jazz combo called nsi. which just give name to his own label. an emblematic character of the scene who collaborates with artist like atom heart, dandy jack or max loderbauer in the past 20 years. supported by dixon, jay haze, Âme, luciano, laurent garnier, 2000 & one, josh wink and dj deep.

bristol based bounce bounds forward another leap with two smashing remixes of their previous club destroyer f*ck off. featuring the inimitable stylings of mc foxy, this one was a surefire hit the first time around, and now a pair of weighty remixes offer up a fresh perspective on things.

a limited delsin release by the man also known as new world aquarium. he caused quite a stir with his electronic edged (house) music on delsin, peacefrog and his own nwaq label alike. this is another fine more electronic release, to be compared to the more chain reaction side of things...

another quality dmx krew masterpiece we at turbo are longtime fans of dmx krew, so its a real honor to work with him again 6 years after his last contribution to our now defunct sub-label white leather. we dont normally trace an artists history or include much biography in our press releases, but we feel the need in this case to pay our respects to a long and brilliant career. with all the crap that gets paraded around nowadays its easy to forget who the real masters are... ed dmx is one of them. ive always held a soft spot for ed, he was one of my favorite producers in the proto-electro heyday. hearing his live version of the knight rider theme at sona (tigas club circa 96) was (believe it or not) a revelation. of all the artists id met up until then, he was the coolest, he could play synths better than anyone id ever heard, he had the balls to do vocals in his live-set but he was a sweet, softspoken, and super funny guy. for reasons ive never understood, eds pop side didnt seem to take off and for awhile things took a distinctly experimental turn... interesting stuff, but a departure

a brand new ep from the count & sinden, which showcases their love of all sorts of club music, from garage to r n b, from hip hop to grime. lead track hardcore girls is the sound of the much hyped baltimore breaks scene, evolved, displaced and mutated as only the count & sinden know how. fronted by the hottest thing out of b more since the wire, 17 year old wild child of the mike, rye rye. she has been touring the states with mia and, now signed to interscope, she is set to do big things. her unique and energetic vocal is treated to one of the duo’s best bumpy bass grooves and the combined effect is nothing short of devastating. another new school talent picked up on by the count & sinden is ny. bubbling on the uk underground, she fronts the hardcore, jungle inflected soul that is fool in love. this is pop music for the now and tomorrow, a classic love song set to a raucous jungle inspired backing track which has become a live favourite over the summer.finally we have jme, a legend in the grime scene, known for his tight flows, guest appearances and his boy better know franchise. industry gives an overview of the pit falls of getting involved in the trickiest of games... the music business. and who would want to get involved in that shit!?!

there is certainly not enough space to tell you all the great things about move d we would love to share with you. being the musical mind behind the legendary source records imprint, david moufang has always been a versatile and prolific character. from ambient soundscapes to krautrocky epics, jazz sensibilities or straight up techno and house, he has done it all with his own special and unique touch. this lovely fingerprint is spread all over the “cube ep . intended as a tribute to heidelberg’s finest club night of the same name (don’t mix it up with that other square project!) , move d shots two arrows straight into your heart. “cube” is one of those stripped down hypnotic affairs that seem to go on forever and ever just to surprise you with a nice breakdown, before it’s groove sucks you in again. we guess this is what people mean, if they talk about the beauty of simplicity. “heidelberg gals” flips the script in three parts with an old school approach and turns into a monolithic house monster with a bassline to boot. panache! bust a move d!

d.j. bang is the alias of a chicago house legend and undisputed heavyweight champ of all things boompty. can you guess who he is? its with real honour that we present the b.e.a.t.. the b.e.a.t. will make you wiggle
