midnight moves. thats what comes to mind when you listen to cale parks s n1, preferably at an hour long after dusk has settled around you in some beautiful, insomniac city. parks finds – or more aptly, seeks – beauty and grace in ambience and shadows. n1 starts as pure atmosphere – it feels at first like a sort of lovely sonic nothingness slowly taking form – before growing into the darkly lit, gorgeous moodscape it later becomes. a sensual bassline, a pulsing downbeat, a cinematic piano, strains of italo disco, and the sensation of breezing down a lightless road. if you could make sensuous shapes of the night – imagine kneading the dark itself – it might, at the very best, feel like this. the task of remixing parks s original is taken up by french duo paradis, who can otherwise be heard making music on tim sweeney s beats in space label. the paris-based producers shine a brightening light on parks s dusky creation, quickening its pulse and trading in its darkwave undercurrents for enlivening techno and house. theres an element of floating here – a dreaminess in the rhythms, an astral aspect to the keys beaming through the beats. and with the addition of vocals, sung in french – a pop finishing touch on a song that already feels like an earworm – the transformation is complete. this excellent introduction to cale parkss music is also his debut release on the hakt label.

with the track *time machine*, dj and producer michael nielebock provided us with a fantastic debut on our deep circus label. his first success came for the berlin resident with the track pure visionson the treibstoff label, which entered the charts and the record cases of many international djs. his productions all are characterized by a driving groove, mixed with spherical elements, strings and synth-sounds. with *time machine* he also managed to bring this mixture to perfection in cooperation with his studio buddy leevey, thus creating a track which will make the day and caress the ears of many outdoor dancers this summer.
the second track on the ep is a wonderful remix by burak sar aka sis, who recently released his second album *confidance* on his label cocolino. the sis remix stays close to the original track, but reduces the spherical sounds and puts a greater focus on the basses, resulting in a great piece with a lot of deepness. nice!

following up his groovin ep, french house producer kool vibes releases his second ep, time & chances, for his own kv label. stepped rhythms, phased hats and soul-grunting vocals in *get u down* make for a lush and playful take on four-four french-tipped house, while *high up* features short sustained rhode stabs and 90s vocal shouts. *time & chances* is a little rougher in its musicality and drum processing, adding some jazz elements, whereas traditional house combos come to the fore in *something i m feelin*, as chords and crashing hats lock in and out of each other with electric flow.

raised in haifa, israel, now located in amsterdam, this duo of sonic explorers have had acclaimed releases on a host of cult labels like psychostasia, underground quality, dekmantel & many more. having already released the incredible *release the golem pt. 1* & *jewsex* on everyones favourite nyc label, the pair make ready with their most claustrophobic and menacing outing yet. the original version on the a side stays in the same tempo territory as their dekmantel classic *african flower* but concocts a much more spacious and heady atmosphere, reminiscent of mark gages vapourspce project. side b takes us directly to the dancefloor, utilising the same bubbling bass sequence but transposing it onto a devastingly propulsive rhythm track, like the angry cousin of their *bleached roots* and *powow* classics. a formidablle force in modern dance music, at the height of their powers!

lil jabba isnt like the rest of them. while they are busy joining the dots between house and techno or whatever is safe right now, he is throwing paint all over the page. he is not american, but he is affiliated with chicagos teklife crew (dj spinn, dj rashad, etc.) and divides his time between baltimore and brooklyn, exhibiting his visual art, riding around with his bike gang and making some of the most hypnotic juke and footwork you will ever hear. local action have been figuring out a release with him for over a year - eventually an ep wasnt enough, and they persuaded him to make it a full-length album, scales. some of scales has already seen the light of day through youtube or limited cassette releases, some of it is unheard. some tracks sound cleaner than others, that is because they are newer. that is how these things work. what is consistent throughout scales is the quality: across 12 tracks, jabba flips, twists and inverts the footwork template with endless layers of samples, gurgled vocal tags, jazz licks and whatever else he feels like. these arent trax, they are tapestries.

favouring the potential of techno as a vessel for shock and awe, curiosity records emerges with a focused intent and a powerful opening statement with this ep from one of the unsung heroes of french electronic music, arnaud le texier. having followed his heart throughout his career and always seeking to unlock the creative potential of minimalism in music, arnaud has traveled far and wide both as a dj and a producer before reaching this point here, where he heeds the call of long-serving parisian upstart skat in providing tracks for his new label. cry001 stands strong as a testament to the principles that make techno exciting, avoiding the popular trend of industrial brutality in search of a more spiritual message within the intense drum patterns and synth arrangements

i am sure joe goddard needs no introduction, the co-founder of greco-roman and leading member of hot chip + one half of 2 bears releases this stunning 4 track ep. the title taking over is, as joe says: a reference to that moment when the music at a club starts to really hit you, when it forces you to focus on it and the night ahead. featuring collaborations with boris dlugosch and mara carlyle, taking over is an attempt to make synthesizers sound nice. the lead single from the ep is the step together which was premiered on the b traits (in for annie mac) on bbc r1 last friday. since that announcement step together has received more plays across the bbc networks. we have big plans radio wise for this track and we expect to see a lot more plays forthcoming across, bbc r1, 6 music, 1xtra, xfm and kiss fm.
