felinephonix music sets off 2011 with the first installment of a limited edition vinyl selection from the project house of label artist & founder, mieka du franx, with exclusive dj support from kim ann foxman (hercules & love affair) and nina kraviz (rekids | underground quality). du box chronicles is an intimate collection of works & collaborations set to press. vol. 1 presents abe duque, the acid tech king of new york who delivers an elegant, journey-esq arrangement of avant guard deep house that inspires an uplifting vibe beautifully orchestrated with the warm vocals of mieka du franx, titled >du light<. >du what i du< (dub) is all about the hook and dig on that housey bass line, a classy rendition of the original that takes this number back. the 20th release of felinephonix music marks well earned return to wax. the label’s early most notable works were done with heavy hitters kink, jay tripwire, chris carrier, and fm attack, whose productions can be found along side mieka du franx. the hits that gained high recognition were from mixmag’s top djs of 2010 including kissy sellout (bbc radio 1) and luciano (cadenza), as well as support from derrick may, ralph falcon, hernan catteneo, rodriguez jr., mark henning, and many more.

>bite sized beats vol. 3< celebrates the return of the flapjack master chef and spatula maker, frankie j. sometimes it feels good to crawl out from behind the curtain, fart, do a lap around the room giving it a good crop dusting, and then blame it on poor ventilation. so that just about sums up this fabulous new single from frankie j. >gonna give it to ya< will definitely clear a room and move them straight to the dance floor with its awesomely odoriferous bass line and tantalizing vocal workout. this is one for both cheeks and makes for all the right vibrations.

a two tracker of freshness from boxcutter, aka barry lynn, a producer who was taking chances - constantly mutating his dubstep based music, way before people started talking about post-dubstep. this single precedes his new album >the dissolve<, due out in april.

since other heights started just one year ago, dubbed and deep sounds have always been the keywords of this modest label. after several cd releases, the first 12inch vinyl release is available. this ep provides a spectrum of styles in the shape of three tracks by szare, helix and brooks mosher. ranging from percussive to chord-driven techno, the producers reflect what other heights is all about. so far supported by field records, anthony shakir, fanon flowers, donnell knox, myles sergé, don williams, xdb, samuli kemppi and duplex

supported by luciano, timo maas, pig & dan, anthony collins, woody, dustin zahn. rifraf is rafael gimelstein, recently relocated from sydney to berlin, born in lithuania, raised in israel, flowered in sydney. classically trained violinist, deep as fu*k party organiser and creator of sydneys earthdance festival, rifraf is now full time producer making his distinctive sound in electronic music world. philosophy started as a casual recording of his granny klara telling stories about her time in a concentration camp in germany, and singing the yiddish song tumbalalaika and ended as a very intelligent moving sound collage. the whole peace is a trip, which feeds you constantly with changing noises and visions. although philosophy is transferring a lot of aural information, it is never telling to much and still works perfectly on the dance floor. its just an intoxicating musical tale which drives you on a wild journey. with the both remixes, one of alexkid with his deep as fu*k remix and phillip baders off runner the release get its pretentious dance floor alternatives. fifteen seconds close this fine ep, which rafael did in coop with the young israeli producer omer from tel aviv.

double 12 inch longplayer with a great variety from funk , soul to latin and disco..

though there is something refreshing and original about the afronauts, their music could be described as somewhere in between the heavy afrobeat of fela kuti and the ethio-jazz of mulatu astatke. this debut 12 inch single combines all these elements, >journey through time< having a hypnotic, spiritual feel, whilst the b side >kibo< is totally exclusive to this 12 inch single, and is an upbeat positive groove, both tracks only hinting at the delights the forthcoming album flight of the ancients (fsrcd/lp085) will contain.

lost&found is einomas new ep, out in february 2011 on shipwrec. the record features one long new track on the a-side as well as two older and previously unreleased pieces for the b-side. the main track >bla< was conceived after editing real-time and live sessions made for gigs after the release of last years >tvenna< ep. the sound material >bla< was initially made from was quite old and the idea and title of the ep >lost and found< came about, reworking of older ideas in a new setting. the a-side demonstrates the more dancefloor side of einoma while the b-side explores the more dark and dense regions einoma have become more known for.

flapjack records break through chefs mark & stevens are back with their follow up vinyl release to their debut discopetry , which was released in 2010. this new ep >hello nightlife< is an amazing topper to an already delicious and delectable cake. i cant say enough about how sugery sweet each and every facet of this ep is beginning with the stunning design down to every last lickery boom tiss of the beats.

there are few artists making seriously great music while not taking themselves too seriously: that difficult feat is one rarely attempted and even less often successfully carried out. benoit & sergio have seemingly effortlessly managed to pull off that contradictory trick, producing songs that sometimes seem like musical open letters: editorials narrated in the voices of unidentified, yet totally recognizable colorful characters, read aloud against a backdrop of beautifully lush, warm and sensuous electronic pop music. the unexpected juxtaposition of such pristine production and playful lyricism — first exhibited on 2009s highly praised <i>what ive lost</i> ep, which included the brilliantly sardonic single >full grown man< – exemplifies why benoit & sergio are one of the most unique and interesting outfits in dance music. its good news, then, that the washington, d.c./berlin-based outfits eagerly expected dfa debut maintains both the charm and expert craftsmanship of its predecessors. single >boy trouble< (the titular counterpoint to >full grown man<) launches the ep with all manner of reasons to take to the dancefloor: an exigent beat, a beckoning synthline, a bassline of understated funk. sergio lethargically sings about girls, making note of both their ups and the downsides, without the hindrance of subtlety. >i love girls/with legs like a ferrari< he states before noting (bemoaning?) the fact that >you need poetry to turn these girls on.< its a song for the best part of the night, full of compulsive rhythms and a climax that builds on sparkly synths. the accompanying remix from visionquest — the detroit-bred, berlin-based label led by producers seth troxler, ryan crosson, lee curtiss and shaun reeves — amps things up, making the beat a more prominent, driving and club banging force. the flipside features >full grown man< and >what ive lost<, which reveal themselves to be worth more than a few revisits.

if it is about contemporary house music, there is no way of avoiding the northern djs & producers. first and foremost with roberto rodriguez aka manolo, who has shaped his personal funk infected old-school vibe over the last years and helped the house revive without forgetting from where it came from. his future beat investigators strictly followed the detroit heritage and his acid kings membership gave us lust for the roland tb 303 again. the bermuda project came back to cosmic again and had more than an impact on the nu disco styles. it is his pertinent mix of soulful, funky & functional dancefloor and his his effective productions who convinced the tastemakers worldwide and prepared his ground for top notch releases on labels like compost, 2020vision, freerange or delusions of grandeur and remixes for acts like yoko ono, tigerstripes, jay shepheard, the timewriter, marmion, crazy p, bellringers or vanessa daou. now the time has come for his own platform called serenades, featuring the manolesque ep - for those who like it deep, down & funky!

what needs to be said about move d? overused, though the veteran tag is, david moufang has been producing excellent music for many, many years. yet, the last few have seen him receive particular acclaim, especially for his more house-flavoured work - buoyed by his increased reputation as a dj... already played by ricardo villalobos

portable strikes back on karat 8 years after his first appearance on the label. hes now delivering two massive tunes that gonna smash any dancefloor around the planet. >inside your mind< is a build up track with a proper vocal describing different levels of consciousness, and about the way of living your inner thoughts. this is a true masterpiece, already charted by a lot of djs and surely a future karat classic. >the gheto escapes< is a floor burner, acid stomper track that never stops to push up the pressure. portable releases here the more dance orientated record of his career and be sure this one will satisfy any kind of djs, from the house heads to the proper techno addicts. one infinite loop is hidden at the end of the first side. enjoy

>corky< is the third ep from brand brauer frick on tartelet records and features a remix from tartelets own james braun. music has always been the defining core of tartelet records. this may seem like an obvious statement, but that was the very reason why it hit us like a ton of bricks when we receivedthe first demo from paul frick and his new band around two years ago you might say that the brandt brauer frick sound touched on a vibration that had been lurking in our musical subconscious. we ll resist the temptation to wax lengthy or lyrical about >corky< instead, we suggest you have a listen and let yourself be seduced by its panoramic echoes and pumping bass drum. hop aboard an odyssey that leads brandt brauer frick through the technoid city of detroit. its a fine ride indeed.

estonian duo kgb step up for their debut release on dub police and they certainly arent pulling any punches. the production partnership hit you with two cuts of pure dance floor energy and impact that display their versatility and uncanny knowledge of how to get a crowd going. if you dont know about kgb, you better get to know, as they are quickly establishing themselves as one of the rising stars in underground dance music. with plenty of tricks up their sleeves, there will be no stopping them in 2011!

coming with a massive track by voltage musique homeboy and one part of the glitz, andreas henneberg. after his very successful single release called >earth goat< we are happy about the next strike now. rotigo! carlo lio comes along with a mindblowing remix in well known style & quality. dj emerson & m.in delivering a massive dubtechno bomb with pressure and soul. should be in your case in 2011!

whenever you talk about polish electronic dance music, then there is no way around jacek sienkiewicz. we have to admit, we are pretty proud to have him on board for our next release on numbolic unlimited!
>magic mountain< is a real stunning & sophisticated solid ep. recognition s labelhead intrigues with extraordinary attention that can only come from a history of many years. his soundpatterns find the right balance between order and messiness and he knows exactly when to take things out and when to bring them back in.

fresh beats delivered directly from the caribbean by venezuelan producer trujillo on his latest appearance on the spanish-venezuelan label apersonal music. trujillos ability to make you feel caught up in an eternal summer vibe gets clearer and stronger with every track he releases. on this release main single >fruit punch< is simplicity at its best, squeezing the most out of basic classic-house elements. it builds up slowly until the original guitar tunes in, thats when you take a sip of your fruit punch (or whatever sweet drink comes handy) and enjoy the sea breeze in your face (whether its there or not..). for the extra flavor on your drink they pour an edit-format track >looking up through you<. lots of original ingredients here enough to make this edit an own piece of music... venezuelan keyboard player mister casanova on board plus trujillo mixing it all up in his best poolside bar style. fresh juicy punched stuff here! on the remix department 2 remix versions from uk based producer toby tobias plus a classy fashioned remix from canadian eddie c. tobias is a hard working man, and when you ask him for one he hits you twice, hard to pick one remix although one had to be selected for digital only release (size matters some time!). what can we say about eddie c.. apersonal had already made a statement that they love classic grooves, and it cant get classier than eddies beats on his remix! this groove is what house music is all about, and it will always be.

2010 has been a massive year for jozif, emerging as one of the most talked about artists in house music. the follow-on from the first sell-out edition, “beats in space”, “brick jane” goes further to cement his place as one of the vanguard of the london music scene, and propel fist or finger to the status of a buy-on-sight label. jozif’s title track – the dancefloor focused ‘fist’ of the package – goes in deep, the momentum continuously building as the track twists and turns through a landscape of deep slabs of bass assured deployment of subtle guitar plucks and piano chords, and dreamy xylophones. finally releasing into an epic crescendo, jozif only allows the moment to last just long enough, before all the elements are stripped right back as the journey starts all over again. brick jane draws out a journey, continuing to morph and subtly affix new elements throughout its 7 minutes. the arrangement is simple yet the progression is deft, subtle and effective, creating a vibe that can be employed at any given time of the night, offering a truly different context. craig’s ‘finger’ re-interpretation picks up the thread where his “beats in space” remix left off. crackling static laced with woozy atmospheres and paranoid utterings flip the vibe of the original completely on its head. richards displays a completely unique ability to stretch the original track far beyond its character into a completely different dimension, building a warped soundscape that feels as though it was recorded in a chasm deep deep underground. a mind-bending journey from a truly multi talented artist, in the truest sense of the word

ulysses dj career began in 1991, when he started his universitys first techno radio show. shortly after graduating he returned to his hometown and became a player in the late-90s electro scene in new york, running some of the earliest large-scale electro parties in new york. guests included legends such as alexander robotnick and arthur baker, as well as recent stars like i.f., miss kitten and the hacker and adult. ulysses is not only about party promotion, however, and a close look at his diverse musical career will quickly shatter this misconception. although a long-time advocate of obscure disco and classic techno, ulysses is currently best known for the piano house anthem robotic hypnotic adventure from his neurotic drum band collaboration with john selway. in addition to the ndb ulysses collaborates with thugfuckers holmar filipsson as filipsson & ulysses, who are releasing soon-to-be classic eps of emotive electronic disco on internasjonal and bearfunk records. ulysses still continues to chart his own musical path with an incredible ep of dark pop for internasjonal spesial in the works, as well as some new club-friendly dance tracks on wurst and his solo debut for throne of blood. the acid reflux ep represents the diversity of ulyssess talent, from banging acid tracks to moody downtempo and grooving electronic house. to round things out ulysses recruited prins thomas to deliver an unprecedented nine-minute rerub of >acid reflux< that preserves the originals 303 groove but injects a heaping dose of cosmic atmosphere and live instrumentation into the mix. essential

for more than 5 years cargo edition has been standing for the deeper house productions of moon harbour/cargo edition’s roster of artists. so far acts like ekkohaus, michael melchner and markus schatz have been setting the tone. now this platform is offered to artists who haven’t yet appeared on the label. the warehouse release is the first of a series of various artists eps. we invited artists like steven cock from dresden, ralph sliwinski as well as the italian acts mass prod & marco daquino and minimono to contribute tracks to warehouse vol.1. the sound of the first ep is all about consistent house music that does not need any cheap rave tricks. old school house music is quoted with skills and style and translated to the modern dance floor. warehouse vol.1 is the perfect start into the fifth year of cargo edition. luciano (cadenza): cargo edition is a great label, probably one of the most quality dance music.. full support!

danish producer martinez rarely fails to surprise club music lovers with his versatile views on techno and house. his very special enthusiasm enables him to seize new musical territory with every release. with his debut record on cadenza, his house sound develops another depth, a more general view of the ever evolving tension between life and music. the mzuzu ep is all about bass. the bass is all around, the bass gushes into every corner of the club, it pervades concrete and iron. while the low frequencies deal ruthlessly with architecture, they are kind to us humans. the basslines put the dancers in a conforting state of hypnosis which might be an unconscious reminder of the long gone time when one still rested in ones mothers womb. it arouses the memory of a state when one is completely merged with the surroundings. martinez reorganises the structure of house music: the lashing grooves cease to be the center of the tracks. martinez moves the heartbeat of the music from the beats to the bass. its firmness releases the other elements of the tracks, creating a free-spirited feeling. freed from their regular task the grooves are enabled to be rough and open. instead of trying to control the crowd, they ravish us with their liberating energy. the tracks rarely need anything else. the icing on the cake consists in tiny vocal samples. creating an irritating athmosphere, they put us in a state of constant curiosity. disolving completely into the flow of the tracks, the human voices become pure sound. >mzuzu chant< & >adagio< are for the beautiful moments when the dancing crowd detaches itself from time and space

composite family welcomes feygin, a guy influenced by prince, the beatles. louie vega, jimpster, herbie hancock, jazztronik, dop, will smith, billy joel and woddy allen. he loves anything that flows smoothly, whether its into his ear or into his belly. feygin comes from a family where everyone played some sort of instruments. yet, he never learned to play anything himself. about 2 years ago he decided he will make dance music, or his own interpretation of it. so far he is doing well. you can call his style an eclectic mix of dance music and its various sub genres. as long as it grooves, feygin is on it. at some point in his life, he d like to be able to collaborate with real live musicians, and really push dance music to its boundaries

to kick-start the fina campaign we literally hunted high and low to find an artist and sound that we felt would represent us and give a statement of intent. what we didnt expect was for this search to take us south of the equator and into to the deep southern hemisphere. this is not the first place that you would expect to hear warm, deep underground house but this is exactly what you get with the melbourne based mic newman. and thinking about it, it doesnt get warmer or deeper than melbourne does it? mic is a young producer who we believe is destined for greatness. at the age of 29, hes already had a string of underground smashes on labels such as murmur, tsuba, dirt crew, freerange, and now for fina records. the intriguingly named live east, die young ep (mic riffing on his time spent living in london) sees what mic doing what he does best and demonstrates why his future is so bright. on die young, the tougher a-side, mic keeps the beats solid, and the groove tight and hypnotic, while the smooth chord stabs get right under your skin. prolonged foot tapping ensues. on the flip side, live east, mic takes it a little deeper with ever so subtle disco touches. the vocal sample asks what your name is and to take off your jacket as if to welcome you to a very messy after hours on this mcde-esque low-slung house groove. on remix duty, the on-form jacques renault and marcos cabral aka runaway, lift the track out of the south hemisphere and take it in a north easterly direction all the way to the caribbean – adding plenty of steel drums and pads on their interpretation of live east

whilst the bpitch control >werkschau< cd showcases the label and its 12-year history in its entire stylistic breadth, the first single from this exceptional album is predominantly about one thing: dancing! thats why we are not settling for album track lengths her, the single release is packed full of extended versions - made by ellen allien, sascha funke and moderat.

whats my name, the latest single from the bajan songstress rihanna, is not a cover of the clashs 1977 punk classic, but finds riri taking a detour from the dancefloor-scorching grooves of only girl to craft a steamier cut which draws its heat from her short-lived, but much-buzzed-about relationship with the t-dot heavyweight. here, the upbeat synth boardwork of stargate sets the stage for a heaping helping of innuendo from both collaborators, drizzy handles verse one, sing-rapping his way through a double-entendre-peppered opener (the square root of 69 is (eight/ate) something… right? cause i been tryin to work it out.), and rihanna responds in kind, lacing her verses and chorus with some playful come-ons of her own. digging this catchy ode to young love/lust? then be sure to grab a copy of this vinyl and the heavy remixes it has.

italojohnson starts the new year punctual with his third stroke. this record will have something suitable on it for everyone out there. without batting an eyelid, its crosseyed and selfconfident, looking at three different floors at the same time: the a-side focuses on the chicago house floor. it begins with a recognizable toolish sound. slowely but surely the theme of the track opens – the track works through a breakdown, a classic drum roll sneaks in and jack grabs again. the b1 provides an unusual turn on the third italojohnson production. theres no space for compromises here. the track stomps on the steam engine warehouse floor. a flowing acid hookline is settled in the industrial drumline and gives the track its meaning. the second track on the flipside completes the whole package and is destined for the late night hours. thats everything there is to say about this track – the strength and emotion can only be experienced by listening first hand. love, peace and happiness

short about the label: a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. we are gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut : ) just the way we like it… im very glad to introduce yet another member to out internasjonal >family<. mathew senick aka mathew leutwyler. mathew got in touch through the web from mexico and it took us only a brief listen to this troika of wonderful sounds to convince us. now decide for yourself if theres something wrong with my ears….. ps: my computer tells me hes had releases out on perspectiv and traum, ill definitely investigate further, so should you

aaah lovely dovely, its that time of year again, the city is covered in snow, chestnuts are a roastin and wee little elves are working away busily pressing the annual home sweet home compilation for your listening and dancing pleasure. yep, its nearly that time of year again, the famed hsh new years rave at the arena/treptow in berlin is just around ye corner. yay! this year we have invited some dj and producer friends from berlin that are playing at the party to contribute to the compilation too! the lovely frenchmen shonky who has played at a few of our shindigs since moving to berlin and is known for his funky techno style has even named his track on a1 >madame moustache<, how very sweet ! snapping at his heels on b2 is our good friend from way up north (maybe he knows santa) and also a berlin resident agaric with his kicking track >after it all< which we are very pleased about. the flipside features some of our homies jens bond and tigerskin with a furious track on b1 followed by nico stojan our little bar 25 flirt with a nice melodic house track on a2 to round things off nicely.

the latest from thesongsays brings back one of our main players - bruno pronsato. whats he been up to you might ask? aside from completing his album lovers do, working on music with thomas melchior and daze maxim and putting out records as pubic lover with our leading lady ninca leece, not much… maybe hes been in the rafters sipping coffee or understudying for bigger roles. who knows. nonetheless he’s back. these two new tracks come from his upcoming lp, lovers do. its a single, sort of. but not really. because when has bruno ever done a single like we know a single? this 12-inch is about as far as you could get from club fodder. rather, its a pair of subtle grooves to soundtrack you cutting carrots, sipping whiskey, or dancing at some intimate afterhours spot

for the second release on his own hardrive imprint, terror danjah is joined by joker and nottingham bassline don illmana. a-side >gully goon estate< happened via the power of the internet, td and joker had long spoken about working together, and danjah eventually initiated the collaboration when he sent the jkr the audio stems to his classic >zumpi hunter< riddim. joker reciprocated with the parts for >gully brook lane<, and after much back-and-forth between the two instrumental grime heavyweights, the >gully goon estate< was blueprinted.

please welcome a new member to the mojuba label family, sirko müller. to some of you sirko might not be so unknown, because hes in the game since the mid 90s and is one of the founding members of the label tokomak records, which was also founded by mojuba head honcho don williams back in the days, and he recorded also tracks for pure plastic sublabel rewired, styrax and milnor modern. after a long hiatus sirko is now ready for some new action, so to reintroduce him to you we decided to put out some of his classic tracks as well as some unreleased bits! its quite hard to believe that these tracks are from about a decade ago, because they are still sounding fresh but also capture that little dirt and roughness which still remembers to the early years of clubbing!

following a rapturous response from all quarters for his debut begin 12 >optical holiday<, james has taken the accolades on board and got back in the studio for release number 2 safe to say he definitley doesnt disappoint ! velocity is another balearic beauty in every sense of the word, already championed by the legendary moonboots & balearic mike (recently played on tim sweeneys beats in space show to much speculation !) and hotly tipped by the handful of players whove received upfront copies. its the musical equivalent of feeling the sun on your face, the crashing of waves on the warm breeze and sand between your toes for many of you james will need no introduction, being the chemical brothers tour dj for many years, as well as the longstanding resident at bugged out during its early manchester days and back to basics in leeds, he opitimizes everything wonderful about a resident dj, paid to make the main guy look good, but often infinitely superior at the job ! as youd expect james musical knowledge is vast, and a firm grounding in the vibrant manchester music scene means he wields it at will, each and every weekend proper

superior elevation is proud to present to you the raw unadulterated motor city funk of exit, a one man band consisting of the psychedelic artist george gullet.originally from detroit, george relocated to california in 1980 and soon afterwards began to reminisce about the d.he decided to take home-studio action and recorded detroit leaning, a synth strings drive through a dark neighborhood of motor city.

lol is a bit of an unusual project, its just a thing in its own right, its not for anything or anyone in particular, its just an lp made by three bored people who like music that sounds like it did before the advent of the internet. the project was recorded in the bedroom of a warehouse conversion in hackney wick (bedrooms can be incredibly creative spaces, seeing as most of us were conceived in one). they wrote about self-obsession, social anxiety, drug abuse, and failed relationships using pre-21st century recording devices such as vhs tape, 70s valve microphones, analogue synths, cheap argos catalogue guitars, and 80s drum machines.

following on from a string of epic releases on labels such as trouble and bass, turbo recordings and diplos mad decent, boy 8-bits name and music are about to be on everyones lips and ears again. his club floor killer >tropical heat< on !k7 records bristles with bonkers energy and heavy hooks - this 12 inch is bound to cause havoc on dancefloors.

i dont think i know, or heard of, anyone who share the same obsession in searching obscure disco records like kool dj dust (real name daniel savio). call him at any given time and he is in some flee market or second hand shop on the look-out for records. he even got an apartment just for his collection.
we talked about the idea of re-releasing >un-googable< music, old stuff that is not only very hard to find, but also so good that re-issueing it is an actual cultural necessity. dust tossed around with a few ideas and finally these three songs made the cut. we are very happy with them!
we hope you are too. we are also happy that we have the support on this release from so many djs. some of them being rune lindbaek, in flagranti, tim sweeney, horse meat disco, 6th borough project, parlour, dj rocca, bonar bradberry, parlour, hugo capablanca, cousin cole et al.

pional takes things in stride. and we like that. despite the enthusiastic response towards >a moot point<, his debut on our label, he has kept it low. locked in his studio, with his mic and his machines, recording non-stop but being extremely picky about what he chooses to release. thats why we are a tremendously thrilled about introducing you to >we have been waiting for you<, a song that has been blowing us away since the first time we heard it.

brand new ep on qalomota records, after the successful >kolakola-dj steaw< (only on vinyl) we strike again with the new generation of french house music producer. the qalomota family is proud to present you lemy leopard. this young producer got 5 tracks to house u all night long. from old skool flavor with >from the jungle< featuring laetitia dana and >welcome to my house< lemy is crazy about old kerri chandler or bassmental stuff! on b side lemy and the wellknow jocelyn mathieu (maw rec, animal house, dj fudge) give us >state of the world<, this song is perfect for the actual dancefloor. the two other tracks, >lemy house music< sounds really detroit smooth house music, >true soldiers< is definitly close to larry heards work in the 90s. his first ep is just a little taste of what lemy could do, because this guy is absolutly incredible, from hip hop to house and electro, he is the man!
