what a journey! well, these guys have been around for a while- they have gone through: rave, jazz, krautrock, garage, detroit, house, hip-hop, disco, folk, dubstep, electronica, funk, punk, wave, chicago house, handmade music and soul. all those nights at clubs, the records, the shelves, the dirt in the second-hand record shops, the stacked audio- and studio magazines in their toilets or elsewhere in the house, the hours spent making their own radio-shows, hundreds of hotels checked in and out of, dozens of sound-checks done. last but not least, the revivals, the subgenres, the fusion - well these peeps have given real influential input into some of these (sub)genres in the past. >lovin< is the second single release of the upcoming >alex and the grizzly< album which is due out in april 2011. alex barck is on the vocals together with lois longerling, who is known for her work with dollkraut. andre lodemann delivers a smart remix giving the tune his trade-mark sound and putting onto the house-dancefloors. prommer and barck are on tour with their own live show.

soulful struts and funky stuff on the number 028 of rotary cocktail recordings. on side a you will find 2 quality handmade organic songs combined with the voice of larsson. on the flipside there is an amazing 12 minutes hypnotic minilogue remix of >find your soul<. put your dancin shoes on and shake out some soul for a smooth ride into the heart of music

for the second and far overdue release on his little leaf imprint matt moroder delivers a superlative psychedelic reimagination of shuggie otis which sits far beyond the realm of your blog standard ableton edit. matt scliced the original into little pieces put it new together and added some drums and percussion with the respect this soul classic deserves. this rework is hypnotizing makes you wish to never end. on the flip hamburgs hardest working entertainer erobique used the same kind of gentleness to rework some cello and voice by one of the greates disco visionaries and songwriters that left us much to early. by creating a dirty mpc beat and blend it with vocals and cello erobique creates his own vision of the late arthur russell far from the average four too the floor mediocrity. this vinyl only release is strictly limited to 300 copies and shines even more with a splendid artwork that shows love and care

support by kink, dave clark, deetron, dirt crew, joris voorn, and.id, alex celler, martin eyerer, nic fanciulli, roberto rodriguez, oscar, gunnar stiller and more.
this killer release by echonomist proves to be one of his most diverse and promising attempts as he switches in between dance styles like houdini. the collaboration with dans mon salon in isolation is a wondering imaginative road trip into the avenues of detroit, driving in a black car as the boomy rhythmic sequence meets with high end pad strings, a haunting stuck acid bass-line and the vocals of a tortured soul seeking salvation. techno structure with modern tools.

from chicago with love, fresh asp edits !

finger lickin three track ep with amazing detroit infeceted deep house.... high quality stuff

it might seem counterintuitive for a producer to detach themselves from one of the planets most thriving music scenes, but in the case of matthew walker, aka julio bashmore, thats exactly what he did growing up in bass music hotbed, bristol. you see, julios first love is house music. and operating just on the peripheries of the citys scene has allowed him to quietly cultivate a take on the genre unlike any other.
following white hot releases for dirtybird, ten thousand yen and soul motive this is bashmores first new material of 2011

twisted tongue follow up their acclaimed debut album with the first single from their follow-up lp, >a return to space<. eschewing the p-funk stylings of their self-titled debut, twisted tongue (dave jay & mark dalton) provide an essential revival of the mid-tempo soul stepper, featuring guest vocalist johanna lee sweetly leading a tough, incessant groove that recalls the classic likes of nick martinelli and the mizell brothers. twisting the track even further are the remixes provided by dj ray mang (dfa, mangled), one of the founders of londons nu-disco scene, who has long taken inspiration from new yorks golden era of the loft and paradise garage. twisted tongue writer/producer dave jay joined forces with ray for his >mang vs. mondo< ep on mangled earlier this year, and here mang returns the favour by dubbing out and extending >a return to space< to mind-bending effect. on the flipside is the cinematic, downtempo remix by blue states, which subtly subverts the original, transforming the track into a late night indie excursion. andy dragazis (blue states) has now been delivering his unique brand of melancholy, guitar-led head music for over decade, via labels such as xl recordings, and this mix of >a return to space< ranks up there with his most memorable work

slamming soul clap & natural selfs remixes !!!

incl rmxs by sascha dive & s catt!! it seems almost ridiculous to refer to zoe xenia as a label regular, when we are only on release number 12. maybe? but zoe is without a doubt, one of the our key artists. zoe first featured on bass culture with her >let the music play< ep in december last year, and whilst it may have been only our 4th release, it was somewhat of a definitive one..

58 minutes of proto house, denizen loops, far flung folk, post punk, cosmic rock and other junk. after forging new ground with his previous sonic hotchpots >miscellaneous mutant mishaps< and >the exploding disco inevitable<, dom thomas returns with another brain melting audio escapade into the ether. the third album in his dynamic anti-mixtape series on brutal music is salubriously entitled >synthetic soul & other junk<, giving thomas free license to curate a mood that takes the unsuspecting listener on a cascading journey of edits and loops, blurring the lines of traditional dj mixes and original compostion. >synthetic soul< is composed of a variety of genres from >international disco frankenstien< thomas musical heritage, warping together vastly disparate records into a rich sonic tapestry. repeated listening recommended with or without substances...

supported by: angel molina, david mothersole, dj tlr, paul woolford, simbad, jörn werner, franck roger, fabrice lig, will o brien, hakim murphy, esther duijn,.. >my electronic soul< is probably one of franco cangellis most personal tracks. slow and almost sensual 909 drums create a sonic canvas on which soulful pads and elegant melodies create a timeless electronic ballad reminiscent of early chicago deep house combined with the melancholy of detroit. as the title suggests, this track pretty much exposes francos true roots and is an ode to those long lost and almost forgotten days. >house for brunch< is another deep house offering with more detroit melodics

croatian nu-disco/funk/boogie overlord ilija rudman has swung by around here. once more he is spinning his audio gems on the legendary bearfunk label. this time is the ever so funky new release soul embrace . ilija gets his niles rogers hat on and peppers this sparkler with chingy-funk guitar. add in some big rolling, dx-style, chugger bass and lashes of darting percussion and there you have it...floor-filler dynamite. the original mix and the spectacularly 80 s styled extended mix make an appearance. our man also goes straight for the beat jugular with his drum, beat and percussion heavy bonus beats mix. to round things off, label head bear, stevie kotey, takes on the remix duties. he brings some real bass along to the party and new layers of slick keys. turning down the floor quotient just a notch, this one is pure slow-burn disco done well, very well.
