it hasnt been long time ago since the last coup made by clark and schatz hit the streets but highgrades head-honcho tom clark and the true berlin talent markus schatz allready go for the next round. the original version of >hot choc< makes the start - playfully swinging, the track developes itself into a masterpiece of an easy going groove without being half bad. the french dj and producer tom pooks - well known for this productions on ovum, kompakt and other wellsounding imprints gives >hot choc< a whole lot of jacking energy to take along. he sets the percussive elements free - and rightly so! punch meets hypnotic deepness - perfect! with the hot choc re-edit on the flipside by markus schatz he eventually letting the cat out of the bag. without any detours and in best daniel bell-like mannour he jump into a real inferno made of funky bleeps and weird sounds. delivering with this one more than just another highlight on this release - because last but least it’s the best evidence, you gotta reckon with these two!

the legendary club u60311 in frankfurt has opened up a brand-new hotspot for minimal right in the heart of the city, going by the name of 311. paired with this, an affiliated label - dreielf recordings - has also been launched. the residents michael kohlbecker, one part of the saafi brothers, and frankfurts newcomer peter eilmes are releasing the fruits of their cooperation in their home studio, and putting an already-established scene hit onto vinyl with - tabasco. the original of the record impresses with its anthemic character, which may have been due to the fat bass-line and the striking trumpet. despite its monotony, a real jewel for every record case and just the stuff to get happiness dripping from the club ceiling. the remix by alexi delano, on the other hand, is somewhat deeper and more melodic at the same time, but still contains all the ingredients necessary for a proper shot of tabasco. sonic monogamy or fat kick basses make this remix unique. the dominant trumpet and the scraping percussion of the berliner andre crom make this remix an absolute guarantee of ecstasy. tabasco is hot and burns like hell!

all god s children is pure deephouse with driving percussion, a classic house groove, lush keyboard work and a bassline that brings you through the night. the bside sports two versions of the track anything is possible. the maison vumbi edit by xaver hinself is very faithful to the original version, which is a disco tainted take on early chicago house, and simply streamlines the track for ideal dancefloor compatibility. the filiberto marmelade remix on the other hand turns the track into a psychedelic piano-house jam with a highly addictive additional hook, a real summer tune..

the slovakian techno label numb showcases another great release by the dutch rising stars museum. this is another fine colabboration by anton pieete (also responsibles for the highly anticipated numb 011) and jeroen liebregts known from his other projects called radial and his own labels audio assault and dinner to name just a few. this release is just what you would expect from these serious beats lovers! clean as yo mommy s kitchen and sharp as a razor! watch these guys grow and grow and feel why they are so big right now and got signed on major labels like drumcode!

konk is the eagerly awaited new album from the kooks. it is their second album, and the follow up to their hugely successful 2006 debut inside in/inside out which sold some two million copies worldwide and spawned the massive singles she moves in her own way, you dont love me, sofa song, eddies gun, ooh la and na ve. konk was recorded over a six week period at the tail end of 2007 in ray davieskonk studios in north london, plus a week at los angelessound factory. the sessions once again united the group with esteemed producer tony hoffer (beck / air/the fratellis). konk features 12 tracks. theres gap which is classic kooks, and shine on which finds luke exploring hitherto unchartered lyrical territory over the loveliest of melodies. its destined to become another lynchpin in the kooks live set. first single always where i need to be is a tumbling rocker with a do do do, do do do do refrain that might just be the catchiest thing they ve ever done. sway and mr maker are other album highlights.

big with carl cox, sasha, dubfire, sander kleinenberg, nick warren, deetron, anja schneider, gregor tresher and many more.. after eat the positive, this brand new echoism track will give you the deep and profound electronation summer vibe. its remixed by none other than alexi delano (plus 8, truesoul)

with the electronic justice 12inch, james t. cotton and d_marc cantu saw off another thick slab of classic chicago acid. opener >1mg< is a relentless teutonic grind, tightly constructed yet engraved with enough subversive tweaks to hint at the most experimental urges of james t. cotton_s other persona, tadd mullinix. >werkin house< and >static vision< follow close behind with the brooding squelch of a 303. and if these take us deep inside the darkest warehouse, then the title track reveals the inner depths of the artists themselves. >electronic justice< may well be 2am/fm_s manifesto, a rolling vocal creeper whose laser-beam pulses ebb and flow around a synthesized mantra: >experimental vision/ this is us, who we are/ this is our religion.< fitting words to chant, shout, or whisper in the flicker of a strobe at 2am, after all..

with cedric gervais remix already getting attention from the likes of pete tong, erick morillo, sander kleinenberg and other a-listers ,the two brand new remixes by yoshi veteran dean coleman and proven whiz kid chris barratt only add to this already strong package

superb reissue of ron trent s all-time deep techno classic altered states. made when he was still school-age, and released in 1990 on armandos seminal warehouse label, this record was an immediate underground club hit, turning ron into a local hero, kickstarting his hugely successful production and djing career and making him probably the only chicago house producer to rate one of the best techno singles of all time! this classic acid workout is stunning in its simplicity and has been described as one of the most perfect and moving tracks ever heard. the other tracks are also very beautiful in their own right despite having been overshadowed by the epic altered states - the afterlife was included on dj hells x-mix-5. all tracks digitally remastered for superb sound quality

solid 4 track electro techhouse ep... seven days and one week is a incredible remake of bbes classic... but the other three tracks rocks the floor too

yore returns with a true dream team split ep, pairing yore label head andy vaz with sistrum manager patrice scott. vaz is up first with a beautiful slice of old-school funk and soul within a deep house formula, >back to square one< that has a whole lot more in common with isaac hayes and james brown than with juan atkins or any other techno icon. accompanied by a wah-wah guitar figure and claps, a bullet-proof bass line leads a nine-minute charge thats quickly bolstered by a slinkily swinging drum groove. creamy synth chords and blazing horns intermittently spill over the pulsating mix and then vanish, leaving space for the rhythm to intensify and the track to grow ever more euphoric (and even, towards its close, a bit acidy). a true mission into both funk and house, which again showcases vazs ultimate diversity as an outstanding producer. scott titled his second sistrum release beyond deep and the title might just as easily apply to the b-side >aztecal< where the detroit producer slathers shimmering stabs and congealing streams over a thudding kick drum and flickering percussive detail. while vazs cut draws inspiration from the timeless traditions of decades past, scotts looks towards the future when its gleaming shuttle lifts off in pursuit of distant galaxies.

>work in progress< was born in december 2005 by two french dj, kony & maxime dangles. the first one hold a record store, the other discovers the mix universe. their musical relationship and friendship never stops evolving since they met in 1999. 10 years are separating the duet members but it’s never been a problem, each member is influencing the other melting minimal music with new wave inspirations. after maxime dangles released solo a few ep on kompakt, paso or scandium, here’s a release under >work in progress< pseudo on the french logarythm..

nice new berlin label with nice artwork and some sweet cosmic kraut disco. original mix is by grackle (aka galaxy toobin aka smeckulator) who dropped a nice minimalish sahko kind of cut. main tracks are basicly the sweet ass remixes by unit 4 who made a long slowly building track with an electronic kraut rock/disco groove and he managed to take things higher into the comsos as the track develope... nice job! the other very nice remix is by t. keeler who made a more disco-ish affair with nice lush grooves and warm balearic sounds. hot stuff for all the lindstrom, mudd, prins thomas, quiet village fans

feat deadmau5, tommy lee, dj aero and ‘steve,’ this formidable force comes together once again to produce some skull-numbing tunes. deadmau5: found lurking in the creative laboratory known as the ‘deadmau5 disco den of despair and inequity’ this creative ingenue runs the gamut of beats unlike any other. since his inception deadmau5 has stormed our planet with chart topping action and playlists from the best of the best. the now established duo of dj aero and tommy lee join forces to create these fantastic tracks.

this years theme for one of holland finest outdoor festival is made by none other then rene amesz

introducing the long awaited natura sonoris third release, this time from uks producer voltaeric he was born in england, raised in singapur and the adopted back to london. he is a true workaholic: to develop his multiple musical faces, he has created up to 4 akas (and the list can still growing) his most famous act is kid dub, he is touring the world with it and published his music in prestigious labels such as mood music, devore, john aquavivas definitive label, global underground compilations, etc. kid dub and his other projects have placed him in the cases of djs such as digweed, steve lawler, laurent garnier, cattaneo, dubfire, carl cox and many more. from all his musical personalities, at natura sonoris we have chosen voltaeric, his most melodical, deep and refined side. with voltaeric, this hyperactive and inspired producer, develops a personal and emotive sound: crunchy and complex grooves with heavenly melodies. 100 % natura sonoris style

played by sebo k, karotte... layo and bushwacka! are equally at home turning out summery housey affairs as they are peak time stormers, and >now is the time / the time was then definitely fits into the latter category. a double header, the loose concept behind the release is to represent the sound of the dancefloor now versus the sound from a few years ago. >now is the time< has its feet placed firmly in 2008 - a crisp, clean techno bassline, topped by hand claps, snatches of breathy female vocal, and full of an irresistible array rattles, whooshes and other indefinable sounds that the duo seem to pull from the depths of their imaginations. it breaks with some simple electronic sounding chords and a stirring martin luther king sample that makes this record so memorable. >the time was then< is based around that same sample, but gives a cheeky nod to a few years back, with a bassline and keys that wouldnt have sounded out of place on their seminal ‘night works’ album. it never goes too far towards nostalgia, though, and either would rip up a late night dancefloor

after the returning of swr in may 2008 with the >never forget ep< swr strikes back just 1 month later with the next release: >i stay hard<. techno artist sven wittekind stays for hard techno like no other artist in europe, since 2001 he brings his supporters worldwide the hard & innovative techno sound in their recordcases. he would never change to minimal like the others: he stays hard, fresh & innovative in what he is doing! both tracks on this release are well done, with a good feeling for the dancefloor, but also for listening at home or in the car. enjoy the nightflight and stay hard

jurek przezdziecki presents his second ep on whirlpoolsex with an unique fusion between minimal techno and neo trance in 4 fantastic tracks, for people who like marc houle on minus, midimiliz aka extrawelt or other border community stuff

the legendary club u60311 in frankfurt has opened up a brand-new hotspot for minimal right in the heart of the city, going by the name of 311. paired with this, an affiliated label - dreielf recordings - has also been launched. the residents michael kohlbecker, one part of the saafi brothers, and frankfurts newcomer peter eilmes are releasing the fruits of their cooperation in their home studio, and putting an already-established scene hit onto vinyl with - tabasco. the original of the record impresses with its anthemic character, which may have been due to the fat bass-line and the striking trumpet. despite its monotony, a real jewel for every record case and just the stuff to get happiness dripping from the club ceiling. the remix by alexi delano, on the other hand, is somewhat deeper and more melodic at the same time, but still contains all the ingredients necessary for a proper shot of tabasco. sonic monogamy or fat kick basses make this remix unique. the dominant trumpet and the scraping percussion of the berliner andre crom make this remix an absolute guarantee of ecstasy. tabasco is hot and burns like hell!

amazing atmospheric minimal !! this new 12 is a guy names hugh like who drops a great alienating track called >content. nice confident sounding track that is somewhere between minimal and house. nice classy build up and use of a violin makes this a track that really stands out and breaks with the standard techno formula without being akward. very dark and futuristic... would function very well as a sound track for a science fiction movie!.the other two tracks are in the same line and make this an outstanding forward thinking release! after being around on wite label for some time we received great reaction from guys like luciano, garnier, ivan smagghe, craig richards, michel de hey, mark august and others

the original version of cubik room its a cool, electro flavoured workout with an earthy bassline and skipping beats!! rino cerrone give us an brilliant example of th art of the remix, he twisting the original sounds ever so slightly and embellishing the arrangement with a little extra studio trickery to increase the pressure...god save rino!!! the other remix is made by mauro alpha, well known for this palette on boxer sport! a secure dancefloor killer!

songs from the source is a lost and found 1973 recording of the source family. these twelve songs were recorded live in the hollywood hills as a rehearsal for a concert date that spirit of 76 - aka yahowah 13, the savage sons of yahowa, yodship, and firewaterair, now known as children of the sixth root race - had at the whisky. a 1/4 tape copy of the recording was found in chicago in 2006, though no one is really sure how it got there. djin aquarian, rhythm guitarist and songwriter for spirit of 76, recalls being sent on a mission to chicago later in 1973, where he believes he left the tape with an old friend. djin wrote most of the songs in the year before he joined with the source, as part of his solo mystical quest to help enlighten the world before it might annihilate itself, adding, im glad both the album and the world are still here.though this rehearsal wasnt meant to be released at the time, there are probably no other recordings as complete of the band doing these songs. the spirit of 76 had a different sound than the one yahowah 13 made with yahowa. songs from the source has more r n b grooved energy, with splashes of synth and organ, a female vocal chorus and streamlined fusion rhythms backing the uniquely yahowan lyrical populism of songs like godmen and lost dead but hoping. songs from the source is a miraculous missing piece of the sources positive musical movement. the members of yahowah 13 (djin, sunflower on bass, octavius on drums) were joined by family members ahom, aquariana, cinderella, rhythm, vibration, and zoroaster on lead guitar, to create the ecstatic sound of spirit of 76.

new zwart release is packed with mhonolink and radial remixes. zwart is dutch for black - the label which was recently brought to life by the twins of tormenting techno stefan and vincent de wit. the style you can expect is a twisted dark combination of furious beat programming and full on percussion. these men support the dutch scene by offering a platform for true dutch product which can easily compete with any other techno movement

since the year 2000, belfastian dj and producer phil kieran is providing us with a constant flow of outstanding records and remixes – among them for novamute and soma – with his energetic sound from the capital of northern ireland. not least has he gotten awareness with his alloy mental project on fatboy slims label skint. his new maxi for cocoon designs two blueprints of uncompromising techno between tradition and modernity. whereas the post-acid sounding a side can be indeed called >wasps under a toy boat<, displaying ongoing >wasp sounds< which are shifted against each other, the break- and bass-orientated b side >tartan paint< sets new standards regarding the sound abstraction beyond popular expectational attitudes. and thus stays a highly functional dj weapon for intelligent techno bashes.

original mad max is an angry club stormer in their known electro-techno fashion. peak time use only! brightness on the other hand is an emotional melodic end of night anthem, perfect for fans of gregor tresher and the like. but hold on to your trousers when you flip over this record, and kyle geiger - from drumcode fame - unleashes his remix qualities.

its a quite interesting fact that jean vanesse and tom sohet aka spirit catcher are on the one hand based in belgium but on the other hand they have put out their records on only international labels like 20:20 vision, winding road and mood music. maybe a good questions to ask for. anyway, systematic is more than happy and proud to present you the 45th release produced by the two fellows from brussels. the ep contains three absolutely high quality tracks so that its quite impossible to choose the a side and the b side. so its up to you to decide.

all tests which have been made so fare have given an extremely positive response therefore no other choice than dive into summer 2008 to enjoy to the best extent the summer gube sound!!!

5 years ago back in february 2003 in montmartre (paris, france) pedro winter aka busy p created the ed banger record label. most of the artists have been discovered by pedro, and often live near the labels office. over the past 2 years the rise of the label has been something like a phenomenon, with all artists being on a worldwide tour (dj and/or live) at sold out venues, each appearance always long awaited and celebrated like a the coming of the messiah by thousands of raging kids from each and every part of the world. drawing on the street energy of hip hop, rocks explosion and hypnotic compression of techno music, but remaining open to all other influences, the sound of the label, mostly electronic and saturated, has become a trademark, registered worldwide. justice, busy p, uffie, feadz, mehdi, dsl, oizo, vicarious bliss, mr flash, krazy baldhead, sebastian and so: mes post cartoon imaging are practically pop culture icons, especially within the new web media (myspace, blogs, forums) where ed banger remain one of the unbeatable masters of its use. this third volume of the labels own compilation features 12 new tracks and mixes.

for our eleventh release we have no other than esperanza s own jorge savoretti. after making some collabs for the label, he s finally delivering his expected solo ep. for this one, he mixed a wide variety of soundscapes and influences with precise coherence developing his trademark forward thinking sound even further. there are lots of words used to describe tracks but for this baby is really hard to find ones ccurate enough, maybe some hints would be, futuristic, intricate, martian, tribal

support by digweed, cattaneo, smagghe, tresher, umek ... trippy melodies and a host of other sounds.. definitely tracks that will keep the party jackin

hammered by: richie hawtin, paco osuna, konrad black , sebo k, davide squillace, 2000 and one, johnny d , agnes ,miss fitz, reboot, chris carrier,..rmxs by pier bucci & ali nasser!! nick curly hails from sunny germany where he runs the amazing cecille label and produces some of the most amazing music around at moment. his sound has been incredibly well received of late and is finding favour with the likes of mandy, clive henry, steve lawler and locodice. here we present nicks debut for audioflys imprint supernature. >on my way< is a slice of deep techy house that has been quietly turning heads since audiofly discovered it on myspace a few months back. remixes come form none other than pier bucci and huge emerging talent ali nasser from romania. both interpretations add their own slick flavours and are bound to be in djs wallets and traktors for months to come. >friday< meanwhile is one hell of a groover and will surely be favoured by those who like it deeeeeep! enjoy

nice price deal !!! 2 massive remixes for this wellknown tune + 2 other great new tracks

second compilation named after the legendary german 80s fanzine elaste which was co edited by composts michael reinboth. part 2 is all obscure 80s disco. compiled by tom wieland (7 samurai, panoptikum).

on side a ku bo presents his first collaboration with são paulo, brazil based mc fefe. on >turnerment< fefe rhymes in portugese about the crazy beat of ku bo and how it turns her on. the paulista mc, who also works as an acclaimed visual artist, has already collaborated with other bass music related artists such as al haca and is well immersed in the sound of future bass science. >turnerment< perfectly combines joey beltram basslines with an irresistible house groove, brazilian cuica sounds and a hands up in the air atmosphere

support comes from hosh, karotte, dave dk, tom clark, jamie jones, sasse and many more.. it’s been a while since james flavour released his last full artist single ! after numerous releases for labels like highgrade, brique rouge and other remix dutys on his own labels plus the work on dirt crew’s last album the bavarian native, residing in berlin for 14 years now, really took his time to bring you these three full on club tracks. taking a different approach to his sound we know from his last two singles on dirt crew recordings, the idea was to create a more reduced minimal groove with dubby influences as they can only be delivered from berlin city.

peter grummich (kompakt/shitkatapult/mule electronics/karloff... ) comes up with his debut on progcity deep trax with two beautiful cuts. mountain paces into your ears with a deep wobbling groove, hypnotised by some nice floating synths, flying over the peaks of the hills. on the flipside peter shows his other side in form of lost, a slice of deep techy, but still warm and typically grummerized sound. perfect music for early outdoor parties and neverending clubnites.

the legendary club u60311 in frankfurt has opened up a brand-new hotspot for minimal right in the heart of the city, going by the name of 311. paired with this, an affiliated label - dreielf recordings - has also been launched. the residents michael kohlbecker, one part of the saafi brothers, and frankfurts newcomer peter eilmes are releasing the fruits of their cooperation in their home studio, and putting an already-established scene hit onto vinyl with - tabasco. the original of the record impresses with its anthemic character, which may have been due to the fat bass-line and the striking trumpet. despite its monotony, a real jewel for every record case and just the stuff to get happiness dripping from the club ceiling. the remix by alexi delano, on the other hand, is somewhat deeper and more melodic at the same time, but still contains all the ingredients necessary for a proper shot of tabasco. sonic monogamy or fat kick basses make this remix unique. the dominant trumpet and the scraping percussion of the berliner andre crom make this remix an absolute guarantee of ecstasy. tabasco is hot and burns like hell!

one version is tied to the main theme of africa with that outstanding tribal groove able to shake your soul and the other one he gives it a try to imagin the actual sound of africa and europe united ...the result coming out is a mix with a very explosive potential!!!

excellent spaced out & funky disco 5 track ep

you is a throbbing, hulking monster of a track, a dark and distinctive foray into sound thats already being championed by sander kleinenberg & pete tong. layering strobing, resonating bass with flickering hi hats and insistant synths, the track hurtles out of the speakers with spacey fx and that unsettling, disembodied voice proclaiming you like an other worldly call to arms! german dance legend tom novy heeds that call with a mighty remix, injecting a hip shaking bassline and shaking up the components of the track, amping the sonic intensity to the max & reinventing you in his inimitable style!

after releases from heavy hitters such as two armadillos, solomun and andomat3000 the mantle now falls to new boy class71 with his double a-side >seaphone/diamond door<. well, it would do if he was really the new boy, but he s not. in fact, this new artist is an alias of italian producer santos, who has pretty much done it all in house, techno and every other genre we could lazily list. rounding things off with a respectful nod to classic techno via moody stabs, lazy melodies and an airtight arrangement in the form of >diamond door<, it seems like class71 is a bit of a name to watch. don t take our word for it though, ame, sasse, djinxx and agnes are already backing this winner.

nice price deal !!! thisisnotanexit records was established in 2006 as an avenue for interesting and eclectic music that wasnt finding an outlet from other labels and is being touted as the uks answer to dfa. they came from the stars i saw thems first single from their debut album on thisisnotanexit records follows releases which featured remixes from optimo and emperor machine.
