after the success leonid neverminds light is here ep, we invited a few artists to reinterpret and reshape leonids work. first up is dutch duo duijn & douglas, who already released on nowar, who took on thymus stimulator and turned it into a deep and funky time bomb. very basic and strongly efficient grooves layered with riffs and counter-riffs, making you hooked instantly. a wonderful hip-shaker! on the flipside detroits kris wadsworth, with solid releases on nrk and boe recordings, applied a more machine funk approach turning feel into a deep jack workout with leonids original dreamy sounds enveloping kriss rawness. finally miles sagnia, whose releases on his own atmospheric existence and aesthetic audio prove to be timeless gems, also combined the raw and the soulful. a true deep house gem with funky basslines, straightforward beats and a sweet deep almost detroit techy vibe.

nice price deal !!! milano based musician and producer joseph bacchilega teams up with piero russo (formerly known as esom, from emphasis recordings) to present you pulsewave music. while empty words and soulless records seems to drive modern underground music, with pulsewave we aim to bring back the spirit which gave life to quality vinyls (from the music, to the artworks) with a mixture of passion, skills, concepts and forms. while the intention is not to have an intention (if not making good music), engraved in the hearth of the record are the words >nothing will be the same<. while the meaning is not to search a meaning, there are things that words cannot express, but the ear can hear and the intuition can feel. nothing, if not a strong emotional content. on the b1, a powerful acid version from esom will be hitting the hardest-to-please underground specialists while, on the b2, a blistering techno track (the original mix) is meant to respond to the most demanding dancefloors. on the flip, uk-based producer and dj, kirk degiorgio (a.k.a. as one/future past), delivers his intense and floor-moving version in a 7 minutes trip which already passed in many djs turntables. dont miss this limited edition, hand stamped vinyl record.

having once said that daily life as well as adventurous trips across the globe were the source of her inspiration when making music, its obvious which recent event in the world of anja schneider formed the basis of her new ep on mobilee records. whilst she takes a well earned pause and enjoys a very new lease of life, >hello boy!< will hit the stores in october. for this release, she joined lee jones in the studio to make something with a twist. with a strong anja schneider flavour, title track >hello boy!< cleaverly transposes a real sense of excitement and waiting on to the dance floor, with soft mysterious chords and a steady build that works itself into a drop. >rio bravo< offers a relief with more of an airy head-spinning feel and >let me out< … well, its done now ,)

recorded in the immediate aftermath of his last ep >passed me by<, this new doublepack from andy stott features six new productions that are more desolate and exposed than anything on its predecessor. the opening >submission< tumbles into being with layers of washed-out digital revolutions, creating an artificial landscape thats quite at odds with the analogue machinations that follow - yet somehow rendering the alienated feel of this material perfectly. >posers< nudges its way into being abruptly and embeds another squashed funk variant thas all low-lit neon and growling textures, awkwardly shuffling into a more robust 4/4 template suffused with sparkling percussion and disembodied vocals. >bad wires< is the centrepiece of the ep, a relentless percussive cluster*ck that belies its slow tempo with a fearless rhythmic attitude. its as immersive and narcotic as anything ever produced by stott - peeling away one layer after another with each repeated listen. >we stay together< (part one) was the first track written for the ep and offers a more spacious narrative and a more sparkling, hazy palette - culminating in a beautifully frayed central hook thats somehow in keeping with the vhs aesthetic of both jamal moss and ferris bueller. >cherry eye< tumbles deep into a darkened hole before ep closer >cracked< turns up, fuelled by an odd mixture of adrenalin and sorrow to send you on your way.... buzzing and forlorn

manuel tur returns to delusions following his recent classic most of this moment on freerange and proceeds to throw another whacking great curveball for those who have think theyve got his game sussed. its quite safe to say the last year or so manuel has continued to push and redifne himself as a producer, refusing to stick to one sound or repeat himself which has resulted in some amazing releases aswell as some fruitful collaborations. recent remixes for permanent vacation, diynamic and dixons philomena label all display his deeper, left-of-centre and more techno-edged sound. here on delusions we have the (bi) polar opposite in the form of the foolin ep. the title track is a beautiful slice of soul-drenched house which goes for a classic sound with simple horn chords, rolling bass and incessant claps spicing up the groove. a simple vocal refrain is spun in like a dj drops an accapella and once heard this will be stuck in your head for days. a firm fireside favourite with all of us here at dog. theres also an instrumental version of foolin for those with vocalitis. flipping over we have the traveller which sees manuel head down slightly more familiar territory with a heavy, lo-slung groove providing the backdrop for some axelrod-style strings and horns, live bass and floating vocal adlibs. a subtley haunting soundtrack feel pervedes as the arrangement developes but the relentless driving beats make sure this track never strays far from the dancefloor.

gly drums! real ugly drums? well, in fact it doesnt matter! quintessentials 25 is a stunning 3-tracker from new signing ugly drums aka steffen baldo (who released an obscure white label on rush hour recently). steffen is a master when it comes to deep spooky house tunes, just check the a-side track >alright alright<. yes, it has a slight tp feel we think. the b-side shows steffens second love, which is pure house music with a disco twist. ugly? not at all, it’s beautiful

mark es >call me< finally gets released via merc this september. ever since its appearance on the mark e beats in space mix nearly a year ago it has remained a must have track and appeared in faiths top 10 tracks of 2010 without seeing the light of day. staying true to an original >house< aesthetic, call me merges a relentless bass line with soaring strings and an organ build de lacey would be proud of, combined with a spoken female vocal this is destined to be a future classic. dixon and tensnake appear for remix duties, dixon turns out a sublime re-work, tightening the feel in true innervisions fashion, whilst tensnake creates a genre defining remix that turns the track on its head and introduces 2 step garage attitude. mark e + dixon + tensnake = huge 12inch !

there are few artists making great music full stop and keeping it tight and delivering quality each time they release music. kaiserdisco are definitely made in germany and a duo that therefore has the respect of the whole dance scene. kaiserdisco manage to pull off that contradictory trick, producing modern cutting edge tracks with a nevertheless timeless and classic feel.
>kuala< the a-side track is an ethno natured track with lively bassline and uplifting small melody stabs, smithereens of vocals and a superb drive. beneath all of this you find the kaiserdisco fx department works with every possible production skill to keep the seemingly never ending loop active and rocking. >kuala< is a firework of a rhythm monster!
for the more traditional kaiserdisco fan, you will find on the flipside with >singa< another powerful tool of a track. kaiserdisco keep a beat tight and introduce a lot of rising cool sounds building up lots of vertical hands up in the air energy!

here comes strike number 3!!the new ep will be made by andrea di rocco, who is known for more massive beats, but now, as mr. smiley guy produces a more housy sound. but still the a-side tracks ohne mayo and ohne senf, which are full of drums, deep vocals and a significant baseline, have a driving feel to it.on the b- side left hand has continuing, harmonizing and warm synthie-sounds which gives it a deep-house feeling. on top of that there is a smooth dubnitzky remix, which is for more relaxed moments. all in all a perfect package to start the autumn. massive feedback by dubfire, maceo plex, maya jane coles,david squillace, shlomi aber, pig&dan and many more

torontonian quartet, azari & iii have announced their debut self-titled album on turbo recordings / loose lips records / modular. it follows the release of the single >hungry for the power<, which erupted a storm of awe on the underground music scene, and a collaborative track >stay here< with friendly fires in 2010. the record is set to become the sound of a dystopian summer with their innately brooding beat and sordid-pop edge.
azari & iiis unique blend of moody electronica, dark yet hooky vocal choruses and analog-thick rhythms has earned them a hardcore following and sees this album as one of the most-anticipated in the calendar. the four-piece, consisting of producer/musicians dinamo azari and alixander iii with vocalists fritz helder and starving yet full, have crafted a defining sound that relishes in its references while maintaining a future perspective.
from the velvety refrains of >reckless with your love< through to the creeping melancholy of >manhooker< and the unhinged technopera of >undecided<, their album possesses an individual classic-future feel, with trademark lush synthesizations, biting soulful choruss and ominous overtones.

deep purple: pioneers of hard rock and heavy metal. legends of rawk. it is about time music on vinyl gave them the start treatment. and we re starting with an album that was never before released on vinyl: purpendicular. the legendary band s 15th studio album was the first one they recorded with new guitarist steve morse, who pulled the band up to new heights and made this the most experimental deep purple album to date. there was more focus on the guitar, they used pinch harmonies, they sounded like they were having fun again, most famously so in vavoom: ted the mechanic based on a true story ian gillan once heard in a pub. the excellent riffs and awe-inspiring solos appear on two 180 grams audiophile vinyl lps, alongside the exclusive - and elusive - bonus track >dont hold your breath<.

so, your bowels have just about started functioning properly and the world has finally stopped vibrating after the last bass onslaught from the sludge camp. its going to require gonads of steel to whack up the volume on this latest beast, but we know you never lost your hardcore. nevertheless, as we are a caring bunch at sludge hq, we feel obliged to warn in advance that this latest slab of dubstep pressure from trick or treat is the sort of big tuna that might leave some needing a job lot of nappies and a year off work to recover.

the intermezzo ep kicks off with we are here, which could be easily described as get out part 2. a spoken word vocal over kerris trademark beats and instrumentation, musing on the subject of a busy schedule and calways available technology. so it begins again takes things down a much more tribal road, perfect for a big room, and the dc10 mix is a nod towards the direction kerri had in mind and the dancefloors he created this track for. the dark mix takes this idea even further with a more progressive feel as the track plays out. red lights explores a more live drum feel with a cut-up breakbeat playing a 4/4 rhythm, and a throbbing bassline and synth pattern. this one is a little deeper but still packs plenty of punch!

red007 sees pushing red taking a slightly different turn with more of a juke style release. (greek - known as dimitri) buckles down with a with what could be called as a fusion of juke, ghetto house & footwork to outstanding results. the sharp 808 kicks and bassline pulsate throughout the tune while a sharp vocal sample cuts through giving the tune that much more punch! flip over for the wonderful ikonika remix. ikonika has really taken this tune and given it her own feel and appeal. turning the stormer into more of a halftime/ house feel, its hard to put to words the outcome. its ferocious & melodic and all wrapped up with that signature ikonika feel! one you just have to hear!

julia porter, best known as miss jools, is the native londoner who cut her teeth and carved her niche in the uk capital, before making mobilee her musical home. her previous collaborative production outfit with audiofly sleeper thief brought her to wider attention in 2006 and then in 2008 she struck out on her own, undertaking solo work and discovering a penchant for slinky, late-night dancefloor sounds with releases such as >la luna< and >que me levante<, proving herself a diverse talent both in the dj booth and in the studio. after a short break, her new release on mobilee >walk away< brings her special musical flavour back to the floor. title track >walk away< it as much minimal and trippy, as it is dreamy and melodic. the same can be said for >whats going on< but this time a powerful vocal is layered over the freaky back drop. meanwhile on the b side >feel you< will keep you spinning. youll definitely find yourself dancing to one of these tracks in the early hours of the morning soon, if you are not playing them yourself…..enjoy!
