ltd 20216 repress ! italian producers steve murphy and dj octopus are regular collaborators, and earlier this year released an excellent split ep on chiwax. here, they return to the much adored german imprint with a proper collaborative four-tracker. theres much to admire, from the rush-inducing bounce of opener track 1 and mr lee-ish cheekiness of track 2 (check the 89 style riff, snappy drum machine groove and cut-up vocal samples), to the impeccable depth and sun-drenched warmth of the decidedly wide-eyed track 3. arguably best of all, though, is track 4, which reimagines sir james 1990 strictly rhythm classic special as an immersive chicago deep house jam.

keeping up their fine schedule, the spazio disponibile label is back with a fifth excellent ep, this time from modes. modes is an artist who is making his debut here, and he is one of a few guys spazio is creating a platform for in the coming months. modes fits right in with the deeply subliminal, transcendental style of the label and its associated party in rome. opener m52 is a supple and sci-fi mix of smooth rubber kicks and millsian melodies that are trippy and hypnotic. m51 is darker and moodier, with smeared pads and grainy ambience making for a big and shadowy chamber of end-of-days techno that is full of foreboding, and finally m44 is more forceful and brutal, with reverb and electricity static adding texture to the cavernous airwaves. compelling from start to finish, this is a fantastic debut from modes.

after the funky summer release ‘deep in’ by stephen brown, technorama records continues to promote diversity & quality music. they are back this time in the ‘electro game’ with this superb release by the french specialist dynarec.

a bonafide legend of chicago house and techno, dj skull has done the business since the early days on all manner of labels, and he s still on it now. shoring up at mentha for this no-nonsense four tracker, skull is on especially deep form here as he heads inwards with the subtle shuffle of -accent- and the insistent melodic mantras of -on the double-. the story is no different on the b side, although -rythmic- sports a more sprightly set of drums in amongst the strafing synth lines before -the unknown land- turns out one of the more eerie jack tracks of our time.

after a splendid, sought after 12- on pyramids of mars, an already expensive edits split ep with red axes and his highly original and acclaimed self released debut album -don t touch my sister-, rouge mecanique delivers a stone cold classic ep for discos capablanca. the psychedelic steady muscle of all will be changed aims to destroy visionary dance floors. sans scrupules is the most surprising acid banger you will likely hear this year. ampedusa / xaver defies description and its mutant sound could evoque ecstatic early minimal house references, kraut and concrete music. can i say is simply put the most elegant, languid way to say goodbye to an ep that exudes sheer brilliance and character. housed in hand silkscreened sleeves with art by capablanca. timeless applies here.

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.

lake haze returns to one eyed jacks for the definitive launch of his “aranhas” series - a run of releases themed around a fascination with spiders and gut-wrenching, rave-crushing dance music. tracks such as “rush hour” (a sort of proto-aranha) and “aranha negra” are now available for the 1st time on vinyl, paired with the highly anticipated oej anthems “aranha de prata” and “aranha vermelha” - standout tracks in the sets of photonz and violet in recent months. it’s not all about brute force here though, on top of his trademark slowed down gabba kick drums, lake haze lays some of the most emotional melodic lines you’ll hear in a rave anytime soon, bringing true lisbon melancholy to the fore in a truly unique way. grab ’em while you can.

with this ep best works records would like to pre-sent a new artist - luis junior. no stranger to the game! madrid-based luis junior has been a dj and music producer for more than 20 years. in 1993 he re-leased his first 12-inches starting to build a disco-graphy of genre-defying music that pushes forever forward, designing new stylistic frameworks and breaking new artistic ground with each successive production. luis has grown into one of the most cut-ting edge and inspiring artists in spanish electronic music. his versatile production skills are clearly displayed here from soulful and folkloristic influences to techno. the first track on the ep “don’t give up on me” fea-tures singer sobi thurairatnam with sultry vocals and a stong pop-appeal. d-nox and beckers tranform it into a club burner for the early hours. floidos on the back-side is more of techno-orientated banger and with pasion luis junior manages to integrate some spanish flamenco sounds without getting to obvious.

after three years and ten eps, amsterdam s will & ink label offers up its first full length from label favorite yaleesa hall and is called woodall. it explores texture, space and sound design in fascinating ways. since 2014 yaleesa hall has released four eps on the label and has become known for breakbeat laced stripped-down techno. this debut album finds the producer indulging a less dance floor focussed version of his sound, and one that is better suited to the full length format. explaining that his tracks most often start as -sound structures and experiments- that then get reworked for the club, here they stay closer to their original forms. woodall is sound sculpture that is electronic and synthetic but also made of real world sounds that are all truly absorbing. comes in gatefold sleeve.

legendary nyc dj / editor danny krivits story in contemporary dance music is a long and storied one. dannys got to be one of the hardest working men behind the decks right now with an international rep and dj schedule truly befitting of his time spent making us dance over the last 45 (!) years. it makes perfect sense then, that one of the most seminal disco labels of all time would call upon mr. ks sharp editing skills when reappraising some of the jams from their extensive catalogue. tk disco is the label in question here and they ve let danny loose on a pair of dance-floor burners that all disco heads will be familiar with.

even if russian producer gradient logic is found here turning out the business on serbian label disco fruit, the sound on the far away ep comes on like a snappy fusion of garage-ready new york proto house and laid back west coast boogie of the highest order. it s the third vinyl release for tonbe s label, and once more marks the serious clout behind the eastern european operation and its closest artists. just try grooving to the slick bass pops on feel me without being transported to an early 80s dancefloor. there s a more organic funk to lock into on i want you slide, but as ever it s hard to tell where the sampling ends and the musicianship begins on this utterly natural sounding ep.

while pheek may have been in operation for as long as anyone can remember within minimal house and techno, cleymoore has been most productive more recently thanks to his pluie/noir label. following on from last years seikou single on xquisite, here cleymoore and pheek link up to deliver some densely packed, production rich jams that keep the spirit of mid-00s clicks and cuts alive. the beats themselves may be slender slices that carry the energy of the tracks, but it s all in the infinitesimal details in between that the true magic of this music comes alive.

bradley met duke hugh in amsterdam, when he handed him a green usb stick after a show. he played the promos in the empty club and the first track immediately grabbed his attention - he knew it was something special. when he remembered the hook to green leaf the next morning he signed the release almost instantly. each song has its own essence, there is absolutely no filler and the entire double pack sits together as a perfect whole. flirting with aspects of broken beat, jazz, hip hop and dreamy electronica - duke hugh winds together a most idiosyncratic release equally at home on the peak time dancefloor as it would be for a long road trip. canvas is a big statement from an artist who s here to stay.

supported by oscar mulero, jonas kopp, the advent, zadig, blawan, pfirter. the fifth release on dimi angelis angls label is here, featuring four original tracks. opener eye of the storm v1 is all about its hook. powerful yet playful, its loopy nature masks raw, driving techno hiding underneath. a foundation that is also very much present in electric tree. the second banger on this side of the ep almost sounds like analog equipment in conversation with itself. trippy, moving and constantly changing. on the flipside, speed boarding is growling lead synth propels the track forward, opening up and showing a glimpse of its contained grit every now and then. closing down the four-tracker, eye of the storm v2 trades some of the raw feel of its a-side counterpart for a more introvert, subtle vibe, making it.

mono junk’s cult label dum records is back with a new five track various artists ep that again packs a vital punch. he appears himself along with some fellow legends of the scene. first up, morpholgy is a consistent performer who has continued to serve up quality electro since 2009 and here serves up a hot new piece. ‘vector plant’ is busy and industrial, slick and metallic as it unfolds and burrows deep into your veins. then comes the a2, irwin berg featuring freestyle man (aka finnish moodmusic boss sasse aka klas lindblad) with a track made in 1995 and never released before. this pair worked together and made a cult electro record for sähkö recordigs in 1998 and this one is just as impactful. it is frosty and frazzled, slow motion but high impact and full of distorted lines and heavy drums. next is mr velcro fastener who were the first kings of electro to come out of finland and between 1999 and 2006 were famous all over the world. their brand new cut ‘almost there’ is a deep one that is riddled with bleeping melodies and has smeared chords bringing a sci-fi feel. then it is mono junk’s turn to dive into the vaults with an unreleased track from 2005. ‘feeling or destroy’ is a physical number with crashing hits and snaking, gurgling bass that is dark and dystopian. last of all comes irwin berg with mono junk as new york city survivors. says the dum boss, “our unreleased track here was made after the new york city survivors – static light cd 2002” and it is a turbo charged track with screwed up grinding bass, icy hi hat rhythms and menace in its grooves.

rothmans are back with their first release of 2016 and who better to bring in the new year than italian electropsycho s dj rocca & daniele baldelli. of course this record would have to pay homage to an italian great and who better than 1982 world cup hero marco tardelli. first up on the ep is a synth funk journey called kratos. rocca goes full on here and doesent hold back as he takes us on a journey of synth wizardry and classic italo beats. up next is an another original from rocca called fonk 400 another track that could have been plucked starigt out of the golden age of italo disco, again rocca is pulling no punches here. the ep is rounded off in spectacular fashion, just like marco tardellis famous world cup final celebration we have nothing short of genius with daniele badlellis electropsychomix of kratos. baldellie doing what he does best and taking us too another level yet again.

the fourth instalment of oscar mulero’s own pattern series is now here, introducing three tracks of futuristic techno on for the collectors out there. as usual, this comes in a wonderful package with special translucent plate.

after a well-received debut record on fellow leipzig imprint kann (route, 2015), tent tracks marks polo s second artist ep and his rst one for holger. here he further expands the hypnotic qualities of his productions and yet always remains in the blurry zone between techno and house. based on rather loopy grooves, his sound is moving as well as meditative it s extremely physical and remarkably spiritual at the same time. music to dance and lose your mind to. in all that its essentially polo one of leipzig s most established djs for almost two decades, rock solid and ever reliable.

chicago producer savile returns to his home base, argot, for his second release of 2016 -- share power. here, savile skirts the bleeding edge of american dance music, proving without a doubt that he s mastered his own minimal sound. lean, hypnotic, and syncopated. share power is an ode to collaboration, kindness, and making space, distilled through his vision for midwestern house and techno.
share power is dedicated to two parties savile played in ohio during 2015 -- in training in cleveland and midwest fresh in columbus. on -three hours in the meat sink,- savile wrests maximum impact from the barest elements — a sparse, moaning bassline is the track s backbone, upon which rippling synth, hypnotic hi-hats, and a carefully placed call to arms roll out in stride.
flip the record over for -effort won t betray you,- where explosive chord stabs fill a sharp, syncopated skeleton of percussion — that s all there is, and that s all there needs to be.
