the om 15 year anniversary compilation is chok full of tasty treats. one of our favorites is this >the latest< by sygaire & defcon featuring capitol a. sygaire (sonar kollektiv, raw fusion) is the the moniker of roskow kretschmann, who has quite the resume of contributions to modern dance music culture. starting with his role as member of jazzanova crew, to his later offerings as kosma, forum, and integra (compost, infracom!), roskow is obviously a man on a mission to spread incredible music throughout the world. here he is with partner defcon (raw fusion, melting pot), the alias of one philipp wohlleben. as innocent as that name might sound, do not be fooled. defcon stands for defense condition 5, and dj defcon brings the heat like a missile in the night. together these two have come with what clearly translates as a respectful bow to the old skool days, presented in true double 12 inch extended mix fashion, and complete with vocals from none other than capitol a.

limited edition lp!
ironic? no, it’s dead serious: sally shapiro keeps on dreaming of barbie and ken. sometimes good things come to those who wait, as is the case with sally shapiro. one shouldn’t really imagine the bashful swede from göteborg, who never performs live, setting a new trend for turning down lucrative offers. and the thought that she is working on something hip, is most likely even a little eerie for her. after all, she s just into something, which she’s been doing since her childhood in the 1980s — singing songs in the style of her idol sandra (”maria magdalena“). if she hadn’t met her companion johan agebjörn, who despite his musical socialization with techno in the 1990s has been deep into italo disco for the past few years and is a collector of zyx records, sally’s passion for synthi songs and fairy-like female vocals would have remained private. however, johan was screwing together some italo-style songs when he asked sally (whose voice he’d only heard from a previous christmas party karaoke) if she would improvise on his soft keyboard tunes, their collaboration was a done deal.
subsequent to their first releases on the labels diskokaine and permanent vacation, sally shapiro suddenly found herself in the midst of the ultra-hip neo/italo-disco movement, which is especially big in scandinavia. why of all things on the northern peninsula, where one traditionally listens to black metal and indie rock played with legs spread apart, the peculiar, yet sunny disco music became such an export hit, stays one of the mysteries of the pop business. it’s a fact, though, that next to internationally celebrated norwegian neodisco-heroes lindström, prins thomas and todd terje, the lovely sally has become the scandinavian disco-act in the mean time.

the third in struts inspiration information studio collaboration series brings together an intriguing pairing between one of africas great bandleaders, mulatu astatke, with the next level musicianship of the heliocentrics collective from the mighty roster of stones throw / now again. known primarily through the successful ethiopiques album series and the film soundtrack to jim jarmuschs ?broken flowers, mulatu astatke is one of ethiopias foremost musical ambassadors. his selfstyled ethio-jazz sound flourished during the swinging addisÑ era of the late 60s as he successfully fused western jazz and funk with traditional ethiopian folk melodies. the heliocentrics have become known as one of the uks foremost free-thinking collectives of musicians, inspired by a wide palette covering sun ra, james brown, david axelrod and all manner of psych, afro and eastern sounds. the collective have featured on records by madlib and dj shadow. now a fixture within the stones throw / now again roster, they forged their own genre-breaking directions in the astral analogue groove on their 2007 debut album, out there. a number of tour dates around the release and headline slots at festivals throughout 2009 have been confirmed.

switzerlands mina records may be young, but their freshness and commitment to all that is lush and deep can not be matched. today label boss claudia ayala brings us a wide ranging and far reaching bumper 5 track release from berlins rene breithbarth. known for his ability of crossing genres, rene has produced in a variety of styles from minimal, techno, deep, tech and house. his releases, remixes and two full length albums have featured on labels including pokerflat, treibstoff, spectral and dessous. the >freshin up ep< is vast collection of the finest sounds, woven together with the magic touch of breitbarth. the heavy bassline, amazing cymbals and hip-hop vocal of >freshin up<. lush, deep, atmospheric synths of >moody<, trippy flavour flav action on >you keep on< and the smokers delight, key-fest that is >brothers & sisters<.

two of turbo s rising stars come together to make one of the biggest records of the year. peanuts club has been arguably the hottest track of the summer for heavyweight djs erol alkan, tiga, and a-trak. it s instantly catchy and massively effective, and we ve seen it bring the best out of the crowd night after night, but you probably already know all about it. the real coup here is that cajou club is another absolute bomb, maybe even better than peanuts club, and more disturbing evidence that france has produced yet another two major-league players in dance music. noob s really been hitting his stride lately, following on terrific remixes for brodinski and d.i.m. and tai s lyposuct, his productions getting exponentially bigger with each release. as for brodi, anyone that s seen him play knows he has all the makings of a star, and if he can keep putting out records this good, the sky s the limit! wanting to go beyond double-megahit and attempt quad-bomb status, we commissioned a terrific remix from sound pellegrino s renaissance man. noob & brodi are in love with it, plus they re the only finns out there to have not produced a record for turbo, so it was a perfect fit. the ph 0 remix on the vinyl is, incredibly, an original take on acid, it s loopy and weird, but works like magic.

this is a 2nd single cut from the new lawrence album >until then, goodbye<, which will be released together with this 12 inch. >in your eyes< is the most dance-oriented trackon the album. atmospheric trancy deephouse style. >sleep and suffer< is abstract minimal house and >dont follow me< is an emotional ambient track.

scandanavian pair holmar filipsson and klas-henrik lindblad aka sasse are busy people. what with running their collective labels moodmusic, crack & speed, thugfucker recordings, and a gallon of original releases they have somehow managed to find time to hook up to produce a cracker of an album. the pair share a love for disco and deep house music and this is very apparent in the music they come together to create. this ep features three choice cuts from their upcoming album æa splendor in the grassÆ.

in the late 1920s and the 1930s, at the end of many performances, all of the musicians, singers, and dancers would get together on stage and do one last routine: the shim sham, shim sham shimmy or just sham. dancers would perform technical variations, while singers and musicians would shuffle along as they were able.
in the heat of the night, let those sweaty numbers melt down any worries. no top hat and gator shoes required ... just shake that ass!

b side the search and the breaks is trippy minimal house style.

the swedish house mafia with laidback luke, play pauls new project ryskee, a brandnew moguai together with sebastian ingrosso and last but not least patric la funk! what a huge package! this ep has the title essentials quite rightly!

voyage direct is tom tragos long awaited follow up to his first ep on rush hour >live with the bbq<. this seven track mini-album shows his diversity within the genre. it reaffirms that house music can still be sexy, deep, raw, emotional and passionate. the package includes the promo released >passion< plus a host of new tracks. highlights could be the raw >on the side< or the swing of >brothers of string<, but in fact every track is a highlight in its own right. together they make this a complete package. a must have for any house connoisseur.

northern songs in a southern style - fab guiro!
welcome to fab guiro! - the album title is a combination of both the popular british phrase fab gear referring to all cool music & lifestyle aspects and issues surrounding the band and also stresses the relation to the percussion instrument guiro that is an integral instrument, sound and necessity in latin, salsa and especially traditional cuban music. fab guiro! is beat music in a fascinating, exotic robe, a drum roll of liverpudlian song pearls the songs of the beatles on fab guiro! do actually sound like copacabana, cuba and kingston - but always like the english harbour town in the summer - northern song in a southern style are indeed warm songs, fab guiro! simply means lots of fun, entertainment and thus celebrates our heroes.

canadian-based strict border (amirali shahrestani and iman habibi) were drawn together by their shared passion and love for electronic music.

a ton of steel and pipes used as instruments? à driving steel beats, accompanied by synthesizer sounds and experimental industrial samples create the sound of pale musics premiere release >phsychomania<. for sure this record, presented by matt eno and steve morell, head of pale music, is no easy listening. five bands / projects come together on this sampler, all of them top name current level of electronic and industrial music. from time to time the music appears to be dark and eerie. guest vocalists include luna di morph and rosa lee riza.

after the success of their collaboration with paul thomas on last years festival anthem >arena<, mark knight and funkagenda join forces once again on one of the most eagerly anticipated tracks showcased at this years miami wmc.
>good times< is the feel good anthem of the summer comprising of a modest intro with a warbling bass line driving slowly through collecting sounds, before opening up into an edgy synth stab and finally the insanely catchy vocal hook >these are the good times<! the track drops back in like a speeding locomotive train going full steam ahead, with cleverly placed percussion, fx and siren sounds soaring to create an intense rhythm.
on the flip, >flauta magica< shows the diversity of these two acclaimed producers when they get in the studio together. taking a different route from the lead track and concentrating more on the groove, >flauta magica< chugs along nicely with an almost tribal percussive feel to it. the excellent chanting vox sample, reminiscent of the early house sound, keeps the groove rolling along into the drop. taking the lead from the tracks name, a whistling flute riff drops elevating the musical vibe to a new balearic level.

as mnx recordings reach double figures they welcome the legendary alex cortex and longtime collaborator lopazz aka bad cop bad cop to the fold with a blistering 4 tracker of live, raw electronics aimed squarely at your frontal lobe aswell as the dancefloors! this work covers the finest elements of deep minimalism, industrial and acid, and keeps it fun with the feeling of a live performance, if anyone can try this approach and pull it off it s these guys! all the tracks are joined together by abstract field recordings from the london underground which add to the murky strangeness of this release! alex cortex has been putting out quality underground music for over a decade with notable and now highly sought after releases on source, klang, and pal sl, with more recent bombs being delivered on platzhirsch, pomelo and of course our very own wireblock! lopazz too has been busy releasing gems on labels such as trevor jacksons output and more recently get physical, were he has been getting a lot of attention, but it s when these two guys team up in the studio that the magic really starts to happen, so waste no time in getting this release because as always its gonna be highly limited!

collaboration has become a cornerstone for motech. maintaining its diverse sound requires diverse collaborations. the sound that emerges on >midnight express< is no exception. combining the ever evolving sound of dj 3000 and the synth mastery of esteban adame (galaxy 2 galaxy, los hermanos, ican w/santiago salazar). this new 12 inch is a driving exploration of where the sound of detroit is going. joined together are the ethno-percussive elements instrumental to shaping the motech sound, as well as a dance floor driven synth pattern that beckons your inner desire to move.

after the smash that was shatnereffekt one, handsette recordings return, bringing a host of diverse and super talented artists from around the world together on one massive ep and another essential array of electronic music.
kicking off the ep is kritical audios >spandex<, a tune that comes slow on the heels of the swedish duos 2006 braindance monster >krupp<. the swedish duo have come with an itchy slice of razor sharp electrofunk with a burbling acid bassline thats currently being caned by surgeon and rob hall (who says, i ve been playing the kritical audio track a lot. good stuff )... this is a big tune!
next up we have miles tilmanns >spirex< which starts with a wonky off beat that gives way to some wacked-out rubbery bassline action and a lead line that could have come from the keyboard hands of harold faltemeyer or parliaments bernie worrell.
following that is c. mantles >that other eden<. fearsome and delicate, morose and savage, >that other eden< is a serious piece of dancefloor heft with reese basslines burbling under a clattering beat before dropping away into a slightly terrifying double-drop breakdown.
unity gain temples >sahmo< rounds out the ep with a glistening, truly beautiful piece of work. the heavy kicks of the intro are met by a rush of lush chords and deft touches of melody, driving the track into a space that is pure audio luxury and reminiscent of brothomstates, arovane and tippers more contemplative moments.

when two good friends share a passion and have the opportunity to collaborate to realize a dream, the results can only be promising. the dj duo >jacuzzi boys< which was founded in the beginning of 2007 by marc phillipp and florian settele stands for minimal deep beats with unique mixing skills and an exceptional performance. since mid 2009 both guys are located in the rhine-main area. with their first vinyl release >ramba zamba< on komplex audio in january 2009 the jacuzzi boys showed a small preview of their impressive musical talent. their next vinyl >check that body< on below brings a memorable killer, together with their buddy jens peters from the dj-collective >primitive visions<. b1 with the fluent vocals gives the impression to taste >guindillas< picantes. b2 is pure spanish percussion art with a relaxed attitude

teaming up with the legend that is francois dubois. the first time the pair have worked together since the labels first release. the pair turn out a devastating house workout. deep warm synths, and heavy, killer keys, create a wonderfully moody, traditional workout, ready for all floors. on the flip, h turns to irish don and barcelona resident chymera, who turns in an electrified version of the original. injected with more pace and power than the original, the elements from the lead track hit he floor with added urgency. a great tech-infused cut, that will find favour across the board.

own baby from french dj and producer master h who decieded a few month back to launch his own imprint on the back of his success releases on labels such as soma, f.com! or vega records... so here are for the first time on vinyl all 3 first releases, at the same time as the very new 4th one. francois dubois, is the alter ego of lars sandberg, also known as funk d void. a massive dj favourite and another member of the soma family. the duo are a match made in heaven. combining their techno talents, the pair have crafted wonderful productions. h delivers the sounds of old school detroit and chicago, woven together by the fantastic vocal of yuanist woods. this will find fans from the soulful and techno scenes and everyone between!

computor rockers return after the worldwide hit that was computor interface (brk49) with another showcase of exactly how electro should be put together. all too often retro can mean dull and uninspired (or just lame plagiarism), but anyone who has been following ed dmxs career over the last several years will know that really isnt the way he plays the game. instead he understands the value of songs and melody... the beats are fresh, without a doubt, but it will usually be the tune or the lyrics that will hook you into a dmx production, the elements that turn just another electro track into something unique and valuable. and so it proves here, from the classic computor shock (which helpfully comes in vocal and instrumental versions for those who just cant do the voice thing) to the melodic and hooky electro-funk of how we used to rock and distributed processing. stunning as always!

the new bob sinclar single is yet another great collaboration... love you no more is a daring blend of je ne taime plus by manu chao and the voice of shabba mr. loverman ranks! manu chao accepted being sampled and shabba ranks came (on time for once!) to the studio that bob had rented at the end of 2008. suffice to say, two miracles had come together!

rhythm of elements consists of internationally renowned pianist makoto kuriya and japanese club scene pioneer/dj uchikawa. together they combine exquisite musicianship with the deepest club beats to create a unique hybrid musical tracks for electronic dancefloors. praia is taken from the forthcoming debut album evolution, (coming out september 09) and features the beautiful scat vocals of yu ka ueda flowing over an electronic jazz groove. add to that the virtuoso keyboard playing of makoto kuriya and live guitar from kazuhiko obata and you have a serious electro-jazz workout! if that isnt enough, the flipside sees karizma take the reigns as he gives the track his trademark stomp mix treatment, roughing up the smoothness and building up to a heavy drop, as only he knows how. the e.p. also contains the delicious album cut airport, an atmospheric and mellow groove sprinkled with beautiful keys and riding between the club and live vibe that signifies the rhythm of elements sound

here comes another purple house music dancefloor banger. this time with the italian supper talent walterino, who is one of the heads behind q:boyz & he is the remixer of purples bestsellers of the past years colors & near the ocean, together with michael clifford & kaysee.

support by soulwax, justice, digitalism, zombie nation, boys noize, daft punk....on the occasion of the international financial crisis the two guys from modeselektor, gernot bronsert and sebastian szary, decided to found their own label, monkeytown records, to create a platform for befriended artists. >anything pharell williams does, we can do better.< modeselektors buddy siriusmo personally invited himself to be the very first artist on monkeytown records and will be no. 001 of the still virginal label catalogue.

this time the machine calls upon detroit hero gary martin (aka gi gi galaxy) to do the business. garys clean production style and attention to simple rhythms have defined who he is. this definition is reworked and slanted by the talents of andy garcia on the remix, so as usual, cryovacs components work together to exist, so that our music may evolve.

daniel munkelberg has come to the attention of record labels across germany, with his experimental minimal-techno sound. this ep kicks off with an epic j alexander remix, together with ronald christoph on co-production duties. friends electric records head man j alexanderÆs remix massively beefs up the original track ôdigamö adding one of the most hypnotic synth lines you are ever likely to hear, layer upon layer ofá oberheim synths and 909 percussion combine with the quirky samples from the original to create a instant techno classic. other tracks on the ep include a darker, but dance floor friendly journey into minimalism with a san miguel remix and another daniel mukelberg original named musteki

uk producer, remixer & musician richard earnshaw continues to be one of the most indemand guys around in house music today. responsible for seminal work across leading labels from all 4 corners of the globe, his stunning mixture of deep, soulful & vocal combined with his darker, techier more underground alter ego, pretty much covers all the boundaries when it comes to house music. bringing together 4 of his latest productions across his own duffnote, one51 & for the first time on vinyl his constantly talked about guess label, earnshaw again covers the full spectrum of house from the soulful sounds of duffnote, to the more club driven sounds of guess. this is a strictly limited vinyl run features vinyl only exclusive material.

fooled only by qualities insomuch as they indicate not only the direction of my movements, but also their magnitude, i can only assume that momentum as it pertains to my own thoughts, is linear, but often the concepts floating around in my head tell me there is an expiration date on reason, as the clarity of vision relating to thought is fading into a remarkable ineptitude. however, as luck will have it, i have shifted into another sign, leading me to believe that thought can sometimes flip. into what you ask? i can only answer succinctly once i have established that we are together and that i am not alone. i have conserved all that i am allowed brick by brick. now it‚ is your turn.
