mistakes music has been going from strength to strength over the last few years with sebastian leger establishing the brand as a market leader. here this new 3 tracker again moves the label forward with the a side - seaweed being a superb funky basslined killer that twists and turns all the way through whilst the synths gather in intensity. on the flip side - sunset - has a lighter feel with detroit influenced pads and synths and hooky melodies. to finish off we have snapshot with its twisted, funky minimal groove. top draw

after 9 successful years and 36 releases on their label >festplatten<, the teichmann brothers are already unleashing their third release, transistor vamp, on their new artist label teichtracks. true to the motto of the tt-series this offspring of analogue machinery is also designated for the dancefloor. the title track is a 12 minute trip, an unstoppable modulating organism from the deepest depths that subtly and powerfully creeps forth. you smell the greasy oil of detroit, you inhale the dusty air of berlin and when you open your eyes, the next day has already begunà here, the past is just as present as the present. deja-vu? or did transistor vamp already infect you during one of the brothers many live sets? those who turn the record over will find, alongside a condensed 7 minute edit of the title track, another independent micro organism. micro is a game of rhythm and bass, reduced to the very essence of groove. a poker face of a track whose accumulative tension spans 6 minutes. like a balloon filled to bursting it knows how to stretch its limits and, without badding an eyelid, it waits for the explosion. minimal? of course! but here you can still hear the groan of the mixer and effects!

repress of this scott ferguson classic. dump days is a wild hypnotic and uptempo detroit deephouse groover. free all political prisoners and a track for aleksandra are more laidback but they groove equally...

after the brilliant albums by alex cortex, cim and lucky & easy, now the swedish volunteer dribs comes with this warm brilliant debut album. the ann aimee label specialises in warm, originally crafted, electronica sounds. where the two first albums had a touch of the detroit sound, the album by lucky & easy and this new album by dribs go more along the lines of plaid, autechre and boards of canada. the full sleeve artwork for this release comes again by delta.inc, who gave all releases of the label their remarkable outfits! as introduced with his blending ep, dribs is the newest scout on board. dribs, on earth known as fredrik stling, comes with this full 12 track album with beautiful carefully crafted electronica. all tracks come in gentle and easy, and in sound come most close to arovane or boards of canada. intruiging rhythms, together with the soft beautiful melodies, make this a perfect listening album for the autumn and winter to come. beautiful

first release for this new italian label, who claim to bring techno back to its top level. we re inclined to agree with those sentiments, as are the others who have received promos of the release. the a side consists of two deep and dark techno tracks, that should also find favour with more minimal djs. they are apparently by a popular northern european artist, going under the guise of ????. the label has kept such a secret that we dont even know who it is. on the b side, we have a soz adams (esperanza, archipel, gumption) remix of label head obtane and fris, which is a retro chicago style excursion, and german duo sebastian herre and obscure close the ep with a more detroit techno inspired track.

fantastic hybrid of deep groovy electronic rhythms and moody detroit-eque vibes from and for the underground

cynosure flag ship artist and label navigator mike shannon reaches into his archives and selects the much-anticipated “the box ep.” “the box is open” was always a highlight of many of mr.shannon’s dj sessions and live acts. this cut delivers nostalgic, old school of detroit, soulful, techno jack. a ton to digest there but there really is no other way to sum it up. adam marshall graces the ep with a stormer of a remix. taking things a step further, adam really explores a different use of the chords given to you in the original. a smooth kicking set of drums and ever elevating sequences of synth keep you on your toes never really knowing exactly when things will drop. definitely a production trait that adam is best known for and it never fails on the floor. howie mangel

kyle hall graces us with another jazzy off kilter ear catching release, except this time hes not alone. kyle and four other young midwest musicians come together as bsmnt city anymle kontrol for the title track the perfekt sin, a real soul hitter. one of them is dorian fiddler son of heavy weight detroit producer amp fiddler, letting loose on live drums at age 17. love kontrol is an emotion steering eccentric groover thats sure to excite the senses with its elegant uplifting melodies. oatn out is a rhythm challenging avant garde dusty retarded joint that is a must listen to for the people who enjoy breaking the tempo and arent afraid to throw your average 4 on floor pocket out the window.

limited 7 inch edition... deep, warm detroit / dubby flavoured... decks tip!!!

rize radical returns with the 2nd part of alton millers inner8 remix package (first part was on the clone x serie and sold out in the first week!). here the original version and the remixes of literon and steve azzara. inner8s original version is a generous offering with troubled synths, stunning keys and appeasing strings. steve azzaras re-rub of alton millers >inner8< is a sublimely deep offering that solders together spiritually aware detroit beats with emotion-gripped melodies and strings. this truly is a bouncy, joyful track that fuses electronica and sounds together with the help of bright house stabs and deep bassline. literons take on inner8 comes with razor sharp claps, one intense house stab, and deep dub bass. traditional house meets modern club tracks (think radioslave). a intens 10 minute work out with an arresting groove! super strong remix package

this is techno in the spirit of the original detroit and european pioneers: machine funk that looks as much to parliament and james brown for inspiration as to richie hawtin, and which treats each track as a fresh experiment in dancefloor dynamics, not as reworking of an existing formula.

incl original version , plus mush remix... classic detroit techno

since the early releases from the mid nineties, every muscial statement made by this man must be investigated. never one to put a step wrong, the sonic mind sound became instantly unique, raising the awareness of the techno community of what lay between detroit & chicago - kalamazoo.in the 21st, now residing in poland, the d knox sound continues to develop. whilst maintaining the acute instinct for getting all elements of tracks in beautiful balance for the maximum techno funk & groove, each track carries a lightness, maybe even translucent quality of sounds so characteristic of his style. once simple question - do you have a sonic mind

played by 2000 and one, giles smith, nick curly, tobi neumann.... solomun is the owner of diynamic records in hamburg, top notch producer and a splendid dj as well, so a team up with jackmate came only natural. the first two pieces they deliver here, show their love for lush detroit-ish soundscapes, combined with demanding drums and repetitive chord progressions parexcellance! carnivale is like a growing storm on a hot summer day, building its tense with beautiful string arrangements and coming to a climax in rolling thunders of pure bliss! factory is a special little gem of its own, that could run for days, so subtle and charming is the flow of this early morning grower. highly recommended stuff

jeff mills detroit masterpieces

sherard ingram makes electro like no other: hi-speed electro soul, reflective soundtracks of desolation, spooky zombie mutations and relentless sci-fi bass is what makes up social engineering, his second outing on trust. a true detroit survivalist, ingram has famously recorded with carl craig, kenny dixon jr. and anthony shakir on the seminal urban tribe album the collapse of modern culture (mo wax 1998). he has since been associated with drexciya as dj stingray and recorded two albums for aphex twins rephlex label.

the second release from merkur aka japasese embassy is coming. we can expect an exciting and unexpected 3 tracker which does not fit in any conventional category. gonno, tokyo based producer and dj, has graped everyones attetion with his outstanding “i don’t need competition (inkl. donnacho costello mix)” on beyond records in late winter 2008. for merkur he has designed the acid-revival track “desolation 303?,,. this track is build on a tricky chicago styled rhythm and an acid sequence which first comes slowly, later on developing an beautiful drive suitable on every dancefloor. berlin based japanese artist / label owner shingo suwa painted the tune “silver blue” with a lot of love for chords and melodic spins. maybe you can call it housemusic knocked down to a minimal attitude. “two of us” plays with warm synths on a solid base, slightly referring to the detroit deep house culture and impressing with an advanced but nevertheless solid groove
