kenton slash demon is indeed one of the most promising new talents out of denmark. the two guys who are also behind the much acclaimed indie-disco band when saints go machine and have gained massive attention with their ksd act, without releasing a lot of material. why? the answer is simple: all they do is just so good. their sound is both organic and futuristic, and their obvious skills take their productions further than the typical frame and dramaturgy of club a track. still 4/4 rhythmic - but with clever and super melodic bass lines and interesting breaks. >sun< is the first release in a ksd trilogy on tartelet called >schwarzchild trilogy< inspired by the elements that form our galaxy. >the sun< 12inch features a remix from the much hyped alan abrahams aka portable / bodycode, from portugal who made added vocals, deepness and classic mr. fingers juno-6 bass line - deep and clever.

cleo & patra are proud to sacrifice a 12inch to the egyptian queen and goddess of the nile. an ode to ancient egypt, youll hear it all. downtempo boogie magnitude and affection with pharaoh love, the full bloom disco-house adventure of marcus antonius on the run who should have better taken cleo & patras advise and finally the pyramid-high-killer-party-time a-side that even teaches the bangles a thing or two. oh, what a nose!

with her new album, dust, ellen removes the sense of remoteness entirely. a warm immediacy takes centre stage in place of distanced artistic abstraction. as such, what is perhaps ellens most personal album takes the form of a complete spectrum of her creative output to date, a cross-section in time which also looks ahead to previously untrodden paths... the world according to ellen!

boy we couldnt resist hooking up with one of the youngest and brightest proteges in the west-coast undergound to slap out some crazy remixes of the bsu ep for yall. who is he? why, a made up sound ofcourse, or 2562 for short. steamrolling his way onto the scene in 2007, 2562 has been a mainstay from the get go, with amazing production skills and a keen ear for what rocks the house. in a very short time the 2562 name became almost synonimous for dubstep. but luckily for us theres the made up sound guise to provide us with a more mutant hybrid of slamming jak-step (and remember where you read that first). so take your pick, heres one for the heads and one for the bodies.

fear of flying regular leif provides the 4th release for fofs revitalised limited label. a supa slick slice of modern vocal house, priority sees leif up his game with supremely tight production, a killa funked up b-line and sensual vocal from new recruit donna lea. for remix duties we opted for the up & coming talents of young un ethyl along with production partner flori. they come up with an altogether different take, coaxing elements of the vocal into a bigger sounding deep house experience. finally we thought we opt for a little bit of a curve ball in the shape of daze maxim. upon hearing dazes installment in the excellent story series we knew he was someone we needed to get on board - here daze strolls into tough tech house territory with a groove slightly reminiscent of rick wade at his most dance floor

italojohnson greets the dance floor with his first vinyl release embodying three functional tracks appropriate for any party mood.
the a-sides systematic drumming maliciously rumbles through the prime time floor as the mellow waves begin to take form and surge into a hysterical tsunami of beats. an emotional sunrise paves the tracks finale.
a similar functional sound continues on b1 and soon after, exposes itself as a percussive chicago house track as the 707, 727 and abyssal bassline protest against loungy house.
the dubbier interpretation of the italojohnson concept can be found in the final track on b2. the 808-thunderstorms and melancholic pads have lived through more than one summer, yet have only triumphed through charm and optimism.

that juan maclean is just a bundle of contradictions. here hes created one of the years best mix cds and not just a proper party mix, which it certainly is, but even what you might call an >important< mix, a timely lesson in the enduring spirit of house musicÑand how does he choose to describe the process of putting it together? as an >existential tailspin<!

thirtyonetwenty is the international dialling code to reach amsterdam. its also the name of amsterdams hot label run by sandy huner, who co-founded techno imprint 100% pure in 1992.
for the 13th release on thirtyonetwenty we welcome gabriele baldi, a young, talented italian whose recent release on label bitten got heavy play from top djs such as oxia, ricardo villalobos and 2000 and one, causing havoc on the dancefloors.
gabrieles passion for music began at a very early age, from piano to rock, blues to soul, funk to 80s … his evolving eclectic musical background provides him with the foundations for his productions now – heavily influenced with deep, house and acid-funk sounds.
this time he is back with two grooving funky (tech) housetracks >all i want< and >crash love<. amsterdams own tom ruijg (bangbang!) finishes it off with a deeper house-take of >all want<.

taken from the forthcoming album flashback. a pure >disco heaven feel good anthem<, that is a lewis speciality, to bring the saturday night feeling straight to the clubs.

walls are a band from london made up of members sam willis (of allez-allez) and alessio natalizia (of banjo or freakout), >we take our inspiration by the sense of discovery, curiosity and playful nature of our approach to making music. we have a pastoral take on the natural world, music that has a natural, unique and personal feel - utilizing the best that old / modern technology has to offer.<

aniligital music is back at it with anthony mansfield and tal m. klein and their evil ways! building upon the successes of their previous collaborations, the villainous duo raises the stakes and take things deeper with this enigmatically titled three tracker. ciento ocho is spanish for 108, the tempo of the first track on the ep. a creepy crawly builder with 8-bit roots that culminate in a huge funk breakdown with an insidious bass hook (if you have any doubt,just fast forward 3 minutes into the track) next up is desayuno en timpanis which we think means breakfast at timpanis in spanish. needless to say this ones heavy on the percussive elements, including of course lots and lots of timpani drums. desayuno en timpanis gets going pretty quickly and doesnt let up. check the flanged upright bass breakdown for extra bigness! purely non-stop huge sound system busting dancefloor action. speaking of floor fillers, have we shown you our tiger bomb? bomba de tigre is the definitely the deepest track on the ep, but lest anthony and tal rest on the laurels of their 808 kicks and 303 basslines, this tigre is a stalking beast that explodes in a vicious classic house attack!

zt and his kiwi buddy get a bit rowdy this time, with a heavy inspration from the early virus sound of 1998-99. >shallow grave< sneaks in a kicks you in the gut and pounds you like giant haystacks! as the vocal sample states: >i roam when its dark, and take you to some secret place and bury you< indeed! mr.t decided to keep it in the family, irish-style, for the 1st two 12 inches. so after old cohort calibre provided the 1st flip side, next up is zeros original colaborative partner beta 2. its now 10 years since the pair debuted on 4 heros reinforced, and a long awaited return to the game from beta 2 looms large! cabin phever is classic blue note buisness, for those that know! beta tickles the ivories with aplom, plucks the double bass and chops a break in a style remeniscent of that ginger ninja, rupert parkes (aka photek).. two words: film-noir.
heavy support from the likes of marcus intalex, jubei, ulterior motive, bailey, loxy, ed rush etc.

uno6 and sven tasnadi demonstrate once again why they can be called some of the best producers in leipzig.

after their magical 23rd digital release, polands elektropunkz label take their metaphysical musical offerings to the physical product for the first time with their debut vinyl release. this is a bee-stinging super sharp shooting yellow limited 1-sided ep with tracks from fotoplastikon, interfunk & loyal plastic robot. first to detonate is interfunks pacy bubbling claustrophobic >get up< electro wave workout. moving east is gdansks loyal plastic robot (who has previously released on bunker) with >italian bomber<, a string-driven track with italo layers and keys contrasting with a bassline smothered in darkness. last up is the euphoric symphonic majesty of fotoplastikons >misja profesora terbovena< – a dynamite piece of classic analogue italo-synth stylings with some ultra-funky keys breaking through to take you to outer space and the fitting finale for this first vinyl release on elektropunkz. limited release of 111 copies!
