spring 2006 was both cruel and exciting. radiating hot helsinki nights, too much light and vivid, restless dreams about music. while chucking down a glass of cheap brandy in a local bar the idea finally materialized: lets start a record label! a label that would bring people together. proud people. people thinking of music. people doing their own thing in their own way in their own basements. and most importantly, people who understood the meaning of space between notes. after 5 years, 16 records, 85 tracks and 44 artists from 13 countries it goes without saying that those restless dreams became reality. and so did the music.

>positivenoise< is collaboration between system 7 and british house music legend a guy called gerald who now lives in berlin, and is one of two tracks on the new system 7 >up< album that they worked on together. the original club mixs exuberant sounds and crisp beats exude an infectious feel-good quality and a bright tech confidence inspired by berlins leaner sounds - already gaining plaudits and plays for its modern club sound. the carl craig remix strips down the original, and twists and turns for the dancefloor with dubby deep techno in carls own legendary style. a.mochis remix is a darker interpretation, with a long dropdown featuring shimmering s7 trademark sounds and a breakbeat build-up.

mr beatnick has played an active part in the burgeoning uk beats scene which has produced talents like bullion and paul white. his best known track >i know all the bitches< featuring the vocal talents of ahu, became one of the anthems of this movement, thanks to numerous spins on the likes of bbc radio 1 and rinse fm. in his music you can hear the influence of whole generations of music from mantronix to the 90s bay area scene and beyond, and the new ep >synthetes< takes this approach up a gear, exploring a path between the crackling breaks and samples of old, and the dancefloor music of now. with early support from braiden (rinse fm), slackkk (numbers), bullion (young turks), mosca (nightslugs / fat city) and gilles peterson (bbc radio 1), the >synthetes ep< looks set to find a unique place in the record boxes of bass addicts and beat diggers alike this summer.

dubline records unveils their next release by the neurodub duo that runs the dubline camp - melamin & wicked sway. the theory behind this production outfit is balance. neurologically the human brain percieves information to be incomplete if it is not symmetrical. in a practice of endless work ethic the sound design interfaces perfected beats that have an even balance of elements. the process in which people follow music as a path is implied in the waking of the conscious mind while in it spirit. the thought process of their approach to neuro is always written for the peoples natural instinct to follow obvious paths of information that can be used to direct the appliance of listening as a being of light tunes in and drops out the appropriate information. thus by drawing attention to the information the focus remains to show the difference between the foreground and background. a focal point is intended to encourage the listener to always furthur the exploration of the information presented. using elements that are different to show that they are clearly different components of presented information and yet both also with similarity to those of the same reference. its simply easier for ones step towards enlightenment in the experience of being human to realize the thought process and recognize the ego, reminding at the expense of the thinking brain that its cheaper to die.

this is a special release to us at days of being wild, firstly because it s the return of catalepsia and he s in a mighty form, secondly because we felt very privileged to have artists of the calibre of sean and don getting involved and lastly the quality of the remixes they delivered left us speechless! so dope menace is an energetic dance floor stomper, centred around a very heavy beat and is indeed quite a menacing affair. built around a hellish, relentless string riff, the track is a dramatic, cinematic, dark mid tempo house number that could induces as much fancy foot work as it would head banging. jerome bazzanella, the man behind catalepsia has been releasing techno / house records for the last 3 years on various labels and compilations (synewave, remute, métis recoordings...) he likes to keep the tempo roughly between 110/120 bpm, favouring a heavy, efficient sound, with subtle sound effects and movements, in the tradition of the records from chicago and detroit.

the enigmatic french trio dop unleash another sonic assault of deep and visceral house music on guy gerbers supplement facts imprint with three bold and organic cuts for your sex. a dark broody and characteristically cheeky affair, your sex opens up this dop creation with a stripped back beat and looped vocal. low-end bass build up the title track to a crescendo that engulfs the senses in deep acid frequencies. this is a nod to the techno elite but fusing a new depth and sensuality to the genre, in true dop style. skipping into subtle and kinetic territory, half naked flirts with reverberating whispered vocals and crisp percussive beats. a lethargic and almost yearning record, it massages the energies of the body with a playful and soothing approach. last up paul ritch tackles a remix of the title track, elevating those throbbing bass elements to new levels with a fluttering and-high energy weapon made to hypnotise the feet, body and mind. dopis the musical summation of a 20 year long friendship between members clement aichelbaum, damien vandesande and jonathan illel, their musical relationship beginning in 1994 as the result of a rock & roll cover band formed for the french national day of music, experimenting in hip-hop, jazz, and reggae followed by various musical incarnations. in 2005 they made the transition into electronic music and last year delivered a highly regarded debut artist album on circus company, noted in the guardian newspaper as steeped not in orthodox 4/4 house and techno, but in jazz, classical, hip-hop and world music

and here it is: the second vinyl ep of niko schwinds album >good morning midnight<. it features some of the unique tracks that niko has created together with some of berlins hottest production talents. on the a side are two tracks that feature the clicky tech-house boys that are channel x, where things kick off with >back from the bar<. it sounds as the title suggests: a little wobbly, a little drunk, a little crazy, but also pretty magic. quite clearly this is an homage to one of berlins not-to-be-forgotten clubs that is unfortunately history now. but things continue on here at least with >dont turn the lights on<, a more straightforward dancefloor track, with a trumpet as the main protagonist. this is one of those tracks that keeps leading up to a real arms-in-the-air-moment if it wasn’t so damn housy at the same time. on the flip the magical connection between niko and label daddy oliver koletzki can be heard on >master of ceremony<, a chopped-up house track with epic dimensions. when things get to the piano breakdown, they get very musical and colossal before dropping back into a great house track. the stark contrast between the piano melody and the groove on this really make it. last but not least then, the original album opener >good morning< that features the singing of fran. it works great as a great album opener, but also perfectly as a slower and more thoughtful addition to a great ep

>only our hearts to lose< is a nice, shining character between the club and the balcon. tollen ablum der beiden zum immer wiedr hören und neu entdecken für club und wohnzimmer ... tolles album

paulo olartes >mil anos< is a very southamerican lovesong, tearing appart all kind of barriers between generes, but still being so in love with electronic dance music and the functionality of it, that you cant just get away from it. the remix of >mil anos< is in charge of goldwill, you see it stays all in the family. a slow melancholic monster which grows and grows to catch you and never let you go. so no more words and enjoy this piece of acetate which has also a very special design for music lovers/ collectors. solo por ti.

great collabo between oscar barila, oscar sala & fran alberola on workbench. a funky groovin tech-house shaker including a lula circus remix! perfect for the summer...

from the very start, track one the first thirteen minutes of love opens the album with over ten minutes of ambient unlike anything you’ve heard in years, a long, elegiac composition somewhere between carl craig and the chill-out zone at a bygone rave. it’s a warning: take a deep breath before being swept away by eight tracks that span detroit and berlin, front 242 and carl craig, linking them via soaring trance, carefully-crafted minimal, the sound of the 90s, the sound of the new millennium. it’s hard to imagine the strike force and heart pangs it will inevitably inflict on any club in the know

nice price deal !!! the record is divided in 1 side hovatron tracks and 1 side remixes by some of the hot names around. side is is gypsy trader, super soaker and young blood soaked in his known style somewhere between hip hop, skweee and crunk: pure floor excitement! like his first release on lo-fi funk this one is a bumpy ride on the dancefloor.

black gold also contains a rendition of sandy denny s who knows where the time goes, in a minimalist arrangement that ends in an uplifting orchestration true to both the writer of the song and the performer. throughout the entire performance ms simone keeps a regal, aloof and sometimes goofy composure, her monologues in between songs ushering the listener a little closer to her moving performance.

the 7th release on mikrodisko delivers the perfect concept for the dissolution of the antagonism between original and replica with kassem mosse’s “musical generics”. while m7&#8243,,, is still available as a single, it needs to be resynchronized according to the time of day from fast forward mode to time lapse disco. this record really fits into the smallest handbag, and: small clubs just need small records!

disco nihilist is a rather special project. firmly rooted in the us-american electronic music traditions, mike taylors records on love what you feel or construction paper roam the grey are between chicagos jack urgency, detroits funky machine soul and the raw magic of vintage drum machines. his style is natural, murky, filthy and raw to the core. the six track ep >running (far away)< for running back is an exercise in grinding beats, squelching acid lines, graceful pianos and heartfelt rhythms without any paralyzing retro romance. it is what it is. get a piece of the real bread

debut release on clone royal oak by morning factory. two tracks that turn every party into a house party! two tracks that go somewhere between the old and the new school with phat bass lines, filtered stabs, blissful keys and joyful piano and a cheeky vocal on the b-side cut. all that combined with slightly slower pace, powerful production. two killer tracks that makes the most stubern raver move his ass!

nice price deal !!! nastynasty a.k.a. jasper reeder is a us bay area dubstep producer whose planet mu debut pits a slither of pitch-altered mournful vocal melody against a rough modulated bassline and 8 bit chimes, to catchy and memorable effect.
on the b side - heterotic - a.k.a. mike paradinas and lara rix-martin put together a remix that is altogether more upbeat, pitching up and looping the sample while building loose panned drums and a rushing arpeggio into an optimistic almost romantic crescendo with sweet chords and glassy tones that sit somewhere between juke and synth pop.

played by luciano, reboot, richie hawtin, karotte, dj w!ld, brothers vibe, guillaume, gorge, andree hommen.. now the german based guy steffen deux (8bit / air london) comes with his debute at brise records. four amazing tracks between dub, deephouse and techhouse. pure quality stuff

the response to sven kacireks album the kenya sessions (pingipung 20) was overwhelming. the cooperation between the drummer-producer from hamburg and musicians from kenya links electroni- ca with african recordings in a unique, exciting fa- shion. it therefore has been and still is being praised in various scenes from techno to jazz to world mu- sic. the cd will receive the award preis der deut- schen schallplattenkritik in may 2011, category: nu and extreme. also friends of the label have been enthusiastic about e quality of this material. pingipung therefore re- leases a 10inch vinyl with reworks of the album in the end of may. lawrence, hamburgs most melancholy house artist, co-owner of the labels dial, smallville and laid dedicates himself to the track kayamba tuc tuc. he reduces the track to its essen- ce, without adding anything new, and edit full of wisdom with heartfelt warmth. taprikk sweezee is the best known moniker of the musician nikolai von sallwitz next to gizmog or fussel . taprikk sweezee builds his soul glitch beats with ease, and he is by the way the most convincing electronic performer we know these days. one single track was not enough for his mix. wed love to see him dance with all the kenyan musicians who play on his two originals of choice, kayamba tuc tuc and mariae. furthermore on this 10inch: a rework of paperflowers by sven kacirek himself, created in cooperation with samy de- luxe producer sebastian winkler. finally, less a bonus but maybe the secret highlight: the ex- clusive sven kacirek track takaye village!

absolute stonking techno turnaround from hotflushs sigha ! 3 tracks to change the game, serious business ! back to normal releases now for blueprint after the final instalment of regis and ruskins ost-traumatic son project. emerging from the more experimental side of the dubstep scene in late 2008 with a number of releases on the much lauded hotflush recordings imprint, sighas sound has evolved into a deep, dark, introspective take on techno. he has also worked with echocord, metalheadz and immerse among others and runs the >our circula sound< label.

big with: adam beyer: >..summer anthem!< , joseph capriati, samuel l session, davide squillace, danny howells, sian, karotte, laurent garnier, joel mull, marco bailey, sebrok, gregor tresher, diesel, alan fitzpatrick, ... with barely a breath after dmb004 comes another exclusive release from alexander kowalskis new label damage music berlin. the 1 inch >random pleasure< is the work of swiss electronic music dj, composer and producer david durango. in his numerous releases (pokerflat & mescene records) durango balances between deep and dark grooves to melodious and quirky dub vibes: here he oscillates between both levels. starting with the title track, the structure reveals consciously tight and multi-layered percussive hooks under the blanket of a substantial, dreamy bassline. the addition of a subtle, melancholic vocal sample ensures hypnotic effect. >ambivalus< walks right into a rather old school vibe, gathering strength with ever-increasing, spiraling keyboard stabs reminiscent of earlier rave eloquence that compels certain dancefloor revelry. the flip side sees the title track remixed by kowalski who treats the matter with his vivacious bite, stretching the voice, injecting a warbled fuzz bass and after a sublime break, enlarges the work to infectious dance dimensions. respected frankfurt artist patrick lindsey (terminal m & funkwelle) remixes the track additionally: he dissects the vocals, keeping the bass and keyboards minimally tight and sharply symmetric for a very mesmerizing treatment.

>sooner or later< by tom clark and martin eyerer is a classy and solid club tune. both masterminds are offering their own >sooner or later< interpretation on this release. tom clarks mix shows a rough and full body, clear structures and is highly seductive. martin eyerers mix is softer with a touch of minimalistic retro-chic. as both interpretations enjoy the same musical introduction the personality of each stands out even stronger making it a treat to the listeners ears. the daniel dreier & dale remix is an intense opposite to the original versions a techno-esque and sparkly ear feast, while the adrian martin & klangwerk remix has a softer approach pairing addictive beats to an ecstasized bass line. all in all >sooner or later< is a 4 track release featuring 4 outstanding visions of the moment in-between sooner or later, a vision for each and every one of us.

this release is strongly recommended. the first record of the enlightened wax series is a fine blend of incandescent house and techno tracks, flaring through the darkness of the night. all the tracks are written, mixed, and produced without the use of any software. light 1 (6.14) is like a ray coming from a distant star: it is slow building up on a wide bass body rising from atmospherical pads. a deep house jam with a touch of hi-tech jazz . light 2 (4.51) scatters raw beats in the urban skyline. an old school piano sample in addition to a aggressive bass line are the foundation of the track. its a breath-taking piece at the furthest boundaries between techno and house. on side b, the delightful journey continues with light 3 (5.34) an hymn to the glorious past of dance music. solid beats, ground shaking low frequencies, joyful voices, soulful piano chords call up the assembly for a return of the shining days. light 4 (6.06) fuses garage sounds and techno attitude. its massive dubby base breaks through sonic barriers. a dancefloor striker

forma (mark dwinell, sophie lam, & george bennett) emerged on the nyc minimal synth scene in 2010 with a singular vision of cosmic krautrock for a new age. on their eponymous debut lp, the brooklyn-based electronics trio merges the melodic flow and primitive rhythms of their motorik predecessors with the hypnotic drones of minimalism, creating an intricate work both addicting and rewarding with repeat listens. like many of the lp s eleven tracks, the churning and relentless forma237b draws its energy from a precarious equilibrium between structural rigidity and free improvisation, a dynamic at the heart of forma’s universe. with lush, distant soundscapes as interludes between these peaks, forma’s inaugural full-length is a harmonious and expansive expression of the enduring power of kosmische musik.

last year, wayan raabe and arne shaffhausen had their debut on boxers >different< compilation with their downbeaty track >yummy—gorgeous<! and now, we proudly present their follow-up: with >yummy unbroken<, you will be irresistibly drawn on to the main dance-floor—this is the deluxe version of premium techno. both title track >vorsprung durch hektik< (engl. progress through stress) and >wasteland< offer an abundant vision of futuristic melancholy constantly in motion, yet at the same timeÊ smooth and well-balanced... like the perfect mix between neon colours and different shades of grey.

mahori is one of those tunes. a hook and a bassline plus a killer rhythm. thats it! tailored to the dancefloor and heavily road tested by the labels artist collective. sano makes up a proper release between techno, house and chicago old school grooves. style rockets limited once again offers slightly more ruff straight forward techno house with groove & delicate rhythms. hand crafted tracks with a simple but sexy groove.
early support by: davide squillace, dubfire, dualton, butch, laurent garnier, dj emerson, madskillz, joris voorn, monika kruse, kaiserdisco, hanne & lore, nic fanciulli & many more

rrocckkett 88 is a suite of 45 dazzling instrumental tracks - ranging from 30 seconds to 2 minutes long - alternating between rhythmic and atmospheric forms, all composed on a single synthesizer, the ensoniq sq 80 (manufactured in 1988). as the inspiration for this creation, zano bathroom (an illustrator, artist, and sound experimentalist based in atlanta) used jackie brenstons song, >rocket 88<, considered by many to be the first de facto rock and roll song.
with rrocckkett 88, the artist invented the story of his music. he conceived a fantasy music production house in the mid 80 s in new orleans where hip hop, house, techno, r & b, go go, punk and new wave are both the backdrop and inspiration. using these themes zano bathroom has imagined a comic strip score, made of video game music and tv commercial soundtracks creating a playful, disposable universe.
these seven inch singles on hollie records are the first official release of rrocckkett 88 and this selection of seven pieces is a good representation of the suite as a whole.
limited edition of 300 hand numbered seven inch singles with artwork by zano.

yambee! is the first collaboration between dancefloor giants ashley beedle and yam who?. chemical love is an epic sampledelic jazz dancer with detroit overtones (think theo parrish or moodymann) thats sure to mash up any dance. natural off is a lysergic disco monster which gives a nod to the hard times we are living in. this will be the first of a series of yambee! 12inch platters that will be coming out on ashleys out hear audio imprint.

very nice and dreamy techhouse somewhere between border community and marek hemmann.

after the very well-received work >in g< borngräber & strüver have not been resting on their laurels but made >reise< (journey). they extended the concept of >21th century electro motoric kraut< on the new album >urlaub< and added their preference for disco music. like a friend of the label said: >reise – sounds like a composition for the 20th birthday of carl craigs planet e<. borngräber & strüver have consistently worked on developing their minimalist compositions without taking into consideration conventions. the nearly 17-minute >reise< that starts extremely held back, grows into a groovy trip you can hardly escape. >berlin tribal music< has a radically minimalist approach and a surprising break like a portal to a parallel dimension. the last part of the album >dancing queen< has nothing to do with abba. the piece is a missing link between electronic h-pop and groovy club sounds.

nice price deal !!! the music of the cologne based duo kitbuilders can be described as electro with scifi-punkrock-energy and a grebo edge. a remarkable element in the tracks are the vocals of female singer ripley. in the kitbuilders-cosmos you will also find the sparks in their moroderphase, chris and cosey, neu and devo. but their music is not 80s retro stuff, they include a lot of futuristic and fresh elements in their songs. after a handful of 12 inch singles and compilation appearances on labels like electrecord, world electric, vertical and ersatz audio, >wake up< was the debut full length from the duo. the us magazine xlr8r called it >...an excellent hybrid of the past and present<. alongside american outfits like adult. and fischerspooner, kitbuilders are at the forefront of the worldwide electro revolution. equal parts moroder and liquid sky, the duo of benway and ripley fluctuate between adrenaline-rush bpm 909 beats, fluttering sci-fi arpeggiations and tense, sinister moodiness.

petros (aka echonomist) understood that apparel music is always looking for the jazzy. we perceive this term as a really special thing, strictly human, true. and then if the real instruments come in, like voices or saxophones, the plate is ready. >thats it< starts far away, with a solo that blends and presents the entire ep something more than one minute. everything flows, stops, gets consumed, digs. >midnight talk< brings us in the most hyper deep, unusual like the style of the artist is. an overview of evolutions that lead us to the awareness that petros is in our day, between things that go fast and others that slow down to be observed. the law of nature brings us to ali kuru remix (we move a little bit to the right from greece to turkey). habits, perceptions and tastes change. ali takes us on a mental journey, long, meditated, tidy. a motif that turns over and over, while things change all around, everything evolves, disclosing new sonar places. there is not much to say. >midnight talk< is a complete ep, wanted, constructed with care and a lot of work.
