detroit techno producer fanon flowers (mechanisms industries, planet-e, reference analog audio) presents studio sound. a label designed to present pure, timeless acid techno and detroit techno. the first release, >acid kush< is 4 tracks of 303/808/707 workouts at 126bpm. raw analog rhythms at itÆs finest. acid for life!

a carl craig production!!! here is the 1st extract taken from night music, etienne jaumet new album to be released end of september. etienne is the keyboard player of zombie zombie. this man is breathing music. you have to catch him live to see how involved he is in his music. almost possesed. when i heard his album a while ago, i asked carl craig to make some production, which he accepted and made a job above our expectations! he pushed the level of psychadelism to the max! entropy is one of them. cosmic dark obssesive - a meeting between ashra temple, can and liaisons dangeureuses. tr 808, vintage synths...lets go for a ride... for the remix, christian vance, an australian producer who released recently a brillant track on rippertons label perspectiv has done a great job, changing the tune into a mental techno ride...we only released one mix, but check the digital platforms for more unreleased versions...

the second installment from the classic drum machine trilogy. more obvious than its predecessor detroit 808, classic 909 revamps the vintage tr-909 drums, as well as some old school sounds and musical changes. scott even adds a >reprise< a word the newbies might not know

late 2008 discos capablanca invited eric d. clark and traxx (nation) to dj at a label party. eric ended up singing live over traxx beats. doing so in a daze, originally an unreleased instrumental by traxx and beau wanzer, evolved into the final version you hear here, combining 808 sounds and a passionate vocal delivery, with the rough and gritty edges still intact.

the seventh release of restoration records is the celebration of the love between men and machines. sykon is true joy and happiness, it s the speech of the synthesizers, it s the passion for hardware samplers and sequencers, it s the addiction to the juicy sound of tape compression. as usual, no computer has been involved in the production of this record.
ôyes, the 4th dimensionö, by eduardo de la calle is a masterpiece of hermetic theories applied to advanced minimal techno. it s mental and involving, deep and solid. hi-tech reduced synthesized sound build up a never ending progression upon the strictness of its low tom layer. mystical energy tthat will kidnap everybody on the dancefloor.
in marieu s ôrootsö, you can hear all the trademarks of the boss of the label. dark, hypnotic and pumping, it developes a bouncing double bass line that breaks the atmosphere with an aggressive 808 kick. acid and funky at the same time, it s simply a time bomb.
on side b, lucretio s ôwhere youö is a superb synthesis of his detroit techno and uk-garage influences. relentless effective old-school drums run with a female vocal sample. soulful chords sing along balistic claps. an evocative string line introduces a touch of blues. a sweet sunset on the groove, a smooth weapon.
last but not least, a touch of class by the analogue cops: ôslowlyö. it s a down beat fusion of jazz and deep house. a monumental bass drum bursts a celestial big band interlude. a sexy 303 acid line, an elegant high-hat, a snappy snare. just few things but on the right place. a delight for your mind and for your body.
restoration records are played by djs such as james pennington aka the suburban knight, dj buzz goree, ame, eddie flashin fowkles, alan oldham, rick wade, marcel dettmann, prosumer, steffi, tama sumo, tyree cooper, norman nodge, santiago salazar, pacou, mad max, dj jus ed.

dickie is no longer prepared to stand idly by watching the current team failing to live up to the high standard set by the great den haag team of 75, how he longs for the anthem that is fc den haag to be on every city radio station celebrating the feats of the current team. sadly though todayÆs team does not live up to dickieÆs expectations, so much so in fact that dickie brings us the anthem to try and induce self belief in the team, æfc den haag, we are the bestÆ, so upset is dickie that heÆs considering coming out of retirement and offering his services to the team. following the anthemic opener, morwyck blues resonates with the sadness that dickie feels on matters close to his heart, while the hague jam is the perfect track for driving from den haag to scheveningen (or anywhere) at 3am. full of his trade mark 808 beats, vocoded vocals and searing melodies, dickie has produced tracks suitable to be played loudly on the cassette player of every bmw as it cruises around the city streets at night, searching for young souls to be evangelised to the ways of the 808 beat.

like any group enthralled by the history of electronic pop, the fascination movement love remixes. on the heels of their 0.5 ep, and to keep you busy while they put the finishing touches on their debut album, they give you remix vol 1. starcluster twists “radio” into burbling new dancefloor shapes with a tinge of 90s proto-house including 808 drums and roland baselines, alba (a new project with roland sebastian faber and michael black of unit 4/jupiter black) reworks “down again” into something sweeping and nocturnal, adding rock flavored live drums and a new shimmering melody on top. elitechnique stunningly suspends “just pretend” in space with spinning organs, transforming it from a propulsive pop song into something wholly different. in the days of dime a dozen remixes that consist of nothing more than retro-fitting tracks with a 4/4 beat, these beauties show off the originals in new and surprising ways.

incl. rmx by dubbyman & above smoke , we go deep again! its a great pleasure to welcome one of these up and coming spanish deep house lads, ernie. ernie has been around for quite some time, but now hes breaking through with his classic, deep detroit house style. the deeptical tracks ep is an emotional piece of wax, and the remix courtesy of dubbyman & above smoke let us think of some early 808 state tracks. if you didnt check those spanish labels out yet, do it now: deep explorer (dubbyman, the leader of spanish deep house), signs of authority, cornuta sounds or ernies minuendo label, where also the likes of jus ed, patrice scott or antonelli electr. are releasing their atmospheric tracks - you wont ernie be dissapointed

the debut release from steve summers. three amazing raw and unpolished chicago tracks. shake the house is a magic track that has been recorded on an old analogue tape recorder (hence the noise). stereotype acid that sounds like a early 808 state jam or a guy called gerald. messages from the past and waves are genuine old chicago house tracks. two tracks that are essential for everyone enjoying old joe lewis and fingers inc releases. crazy low-fi tracks that are just a lot of fun! we couldnt stop playing this in the office... cant wait to play it from nice shiny black wax!

luke eargoggle and johan inkinen aka facelessmind return on lunar disko records with more futuristic drexciyan/dopplereffekt style jams! the dynamic swedish duo, who have already appeared on creme organization, breakin records, and strangelife, deliver four ice-cold electro tracks for the freakz only! the title track >glasriket< is a deep and dark workout, with its unique sounds and melodies, bubbly basslines, and a haunting lead synth throughout, all on top of some masterful 808 programming. the second track on the a-side is >my machine< with big influences from dopplereffekt and kraftwerk, phat analogue basslines and beautiful melodies rule this track while a killer vocoder vox highlight the amazing production skills of these swedish electro professors! on the b-side >visions fade away< is simply a stunning piece of electronic music. probably the best faceless mind track to date ... a bomb of a track that will rock down any club! the second track on the b-side >herr furste< treats us to more killer 808 beats, raw analogue basslines, and classic synth melodies in true faceless mind style. an outstanding 4 track ep from the prolific faceless mind - future classics! limited to 500 vinyl copies.

nice price deal !!! this is the first in an occasional series of dissident special projects. >i was recently asked to do a remix for a brand new tune by italo legend alexander robotnick< the result was 15 minutes of 808, burbling acid bass, pro one and heavily effected chicago style spoken vocals which was deemed too long to fit on the commercially released 12 so the label (this is music - run by simian mobile disco) thought it would be a good idea to release a very limited number of 12s as a promo only. so thats what this is, a joint dissident/this is music release of a remix that wont ever be available on any other vinyl issue. limited to 200 copies, one sided

new egyptian lover songs to celebrate egyptian empire records 25th anniversary! these are done the old fashion way with the 808 drum machine and analog keyboards. including >keep it hot< and yes it is hot! bass booms like no other in this song. this re-mix is going to rock your socks off. limited coloured vinyl. enjoy the electro pharaoh and all the new 12inch singles coming in 2009!!!

produced by 808 states graham massey!! includes hot chip and acid girls remixes!!

transmissions florales is massis first vinyl release. the density of the 808 drums reminds us this is synthetic from the start. but as the the swirling, phasing 7th chords and the crystal-like lead tones build up and blend with the laid-back wah-wah guitars, this simple song take us to some sensual, forgotten place with swaying limbs and flashing lights. with a few changes in structure and the timbre of the bass, the acid mix proposes an alternate scenario - gliding to the edge of madness with a wink at raving in the late 80s. are we in the disco? or at the seashore? keep on moving, keep on flying. bionic gulls call to each other over the oceans arpeggios. >alpha base< uses a similar synth palette, but with quite different results. rather than waves, this piece seems to evoke dramatic weather over a jagged terrain. the funky, syncopated bass and percussion remind us of some ancient tribal ceremony on parched soil. odd sound effects imitate the heat and sudden shots of lightning, while the ascending pentatonic breaks suggest a primitive electronic geisha, draped in mylar foil, deflecting the suns rays as she dances for the gods. she performs an intricate sequence of steps, each with its own placement and hidden meaning… having spent the past 2 years entertaining crowds at underground clubs in berlin and around the eu, massi is already somewhat known to those who enjoy dancing to whatever is eclectic, energetic, and atmospheric. now, perhaps more people will hear his special groove. we hope you share our joy, our obsession… and the particular oscillations from this very personal >transmission florale<

the truesoul imprint represents the somewhat soulful side of its owner - adam beyer. here, cari lekebusch takes up the challenge and produces two wonderful tracks. on the a side we are treated to a wonderful deep 808 driven groove with eerie pads, neat reverses and cool cowbells that creates a wonderful intensity. on the flip side again the deep groove is apparent with neat vocoded vocal samples and fat bass before there is a cool break and the main synth sound appears in the track to give it a seriously intense lift

ffms premium label for deep & minimal sounds qualitative high above standard dance stuff is back from the summer break. traditionally lnz mastermind pascal feos himself lights the lnz release oven and adds his label cataloque with two endurance track runners. it may surprise, how airly the runner with starting number 1 floats through the colourful wood of golden october, cheered on by moogy mild hookline that strokes the drum body. from time to time the race track passes some clearings, the chilling atmosphere of pascal feos side-project aural float waves at the horizon. but then he trots on and on embraced by the feeling of runners high. with the racing number 2 the >generator child< starts athletic but thoughtful on his tom tom-dymanic soles, more and more leading into an 808-hypnotic run on black asphalt. a >generator child< speech sample trails off in the dusk and an lfo-spiralled veil of mist twirls over the head of the scared kid.

following up from his widely acclaimed ep for workshop and his first solo-ep on mikrodisko, two new tracks emerge from the abyss that is kassem mosses studio, striking fear and awe in the hearts of mastering engineers. aqueous haze, his new ep for mikrodisko, starts with >no peace no love no unity<, an 808 driven stomp through landscapes of derelict synths buried in vintage and broken device chains. the track finishes off with a brief reminder of the past. the sixties? the seventies? they never sounded anything like this. >578< on the flip is out on a roll, straight ahead, not turning back, pushing towards a better tomorrow. the utopia that time forgot. we call it techno

after his album with black strobe released in 2007, arnaud rebotini comes back with a new ep and a 100 percent electronic live. arnaud hopes for entering in a new approach in which live is the beginning of the project&#146,s conception. the idea is to build a dancefloor set without using laptop or external sequencer but around emblematic machines (tr 909, tr 808, sh 101, juno 60, korg monopoly). this producer wants to let us share his studio experience in live. &#147,music components&#148, is an album of romantic and timeless techno where rebotini goes back to hot and groovy sounds of his first productions

simian mobil disco and hot chip remixes !! latest project of 808 states graham mass

jorge has been a central figure on the latin-american musical stage since the 80s-first as the co-founder of chiles beloved political rockers los prisioneros, then as a restlessly inventive solo musician and as one half of gonzálo martínez, the experimental electronic duo with dandy jack (martin schopf). now based in mexico city and working alongside loreto otero, jorge presents los updates, a new project combining electro-pop with an unusual approach to minimalist house and techno. designed both as a studio affair and a live performance, los updates expands its collaborative scope by reaching out to a crew of well-known chilean and european musicians who were central to the development of chilean techno in the mid 90s: ricardo villalobos, dandy jack, luciano and tobias freund, all of whom deliver defiantly original remixes across a series of 12-inch singles. tobias. fills the a-side with his remix of >pictures of you< simply one of the most dazzling things youll hear this year. tobias. recent string of work-singles for wagon repair and ostgut ton, as well as remixes for two armadillos and jim rivers-has shown him to be a master of the hypnotic groove, and here he entrances like never before, laying down a stark 808 drum pattern which he threads through dubby keys, analog explosions and liquid bass figures. on the b-side cadenzas luciano is getting late and brings his inimitable touch to the remix of >etting late<. luciano reworks the song into a lean, bleepy groove that marries the cool restraint of vintage dbx to lucianos own effusive style, buoyant and percussive and completely enveloping..

the only major song from prince’s classic film, purple rain, to have never previously been released... finally, after 25 years, comes dez dickersons lost minneapolis classic, >modernaire<, mastered from a newly discovered tape recording. as if that wasn’t enough, the record also features a freak-a-holic cover version by egyptian lover. keeping the spirit and energy of the original alive, there are remixes by hot persuasion, dmx krew and faceless mind, driven by the searing beats of the 808 and linndrum. backed by a disco-machine version by complexxion, this is the sound of the modernaire!

over the past few years john tejada has been splitting his time working with long time collaborator arian leviste and more recent collaborator justin maxwell. why not combine all 3? palette all-stars is just that. a collaboration between the 3 main palette artists, each (tejada, leviste and maxwell) playing a particular role in each song. from the ep opener, >after school special< you get a sense of the trio each working on a particular element. tejada’s driving drums, maxwell’s modular synth work, and leviste’s bassline elements sculpt a driving track with a classic feel. >the pilot< features leviste’s smooth melodic synth work while maxwell processes through the modular and tejada privides the dubby beats. the ep finisher >downtown hotel< features a mad maxwell modular freakout and driving 808 s

when sonic pioneers collide in an ideal setup within club culture dynamics, they do not just produce dents on the floor, but in fact amalgamate in a pliant way to stretch the space-time continuum by means of enrichment through sound. and knowledge. were we have such a mighty hook up: gerald simpson is known to be an innovator of electronic dance music. starting with manchester-based 808 state in 1988, sparking the fire of voodoo ray acid soul, measuring the black secret technology jungle, finding the essence of song based dance via new york city, he continues pushing evolutionary music processes since taking up residence in berlin. now he joins forces with the perlon visionary community of unfathomable deepness and unrivalled sound design always leaving room for novelty, scientific curiosity and blasting mind frames

same script as with previous control voltage releases, 2 x 303, 1 x 808, 1 x 909, 2 x blokes on dial and desk duty and this time guest starring a linn lm2 for that fearsome descending snare sound. this one is a big analogue party tune that just keeps on going and is sure to put a wonky grin on a bunch of sweaty faces on a dancefloor near you this summer. also, contrary to a number of reports from a few internet record dealers who seem hell-bent on driving up the price of the first 2 control voltage 12s, they are not quite sold out a source, we havent got many left but there are a few remaining for anyone that needs them

on the 5th release on his label, fanu has first brought forth an electro infused romp from cycom. petrol has those 808 claps & a rumbling bassline to it, but his electro heaven is of the darker nature, booming like a drug pulsating through your veins, cooling your tension while giving you some heavy visuals. on the flipside, bad matter & martsman lock horns & show you that, you can keep the same intensity in your tracks while still experimenting with different drum kits.

number 1 steve bug charts !!! redshape is len fakis musical partner of podium #05. with releases on delsin, styrax leaves and present he is regarded as on of the most exciting newcomers on the dance music circuit. few producers have achieved to delevop such an individual approach to detroit techno, few musicans managed to rough it up so relentlessly. redshapes track is an interminable battle against stagnation, each bar of the track bursts with musical creativity. on >whats on a moogs mind?<, this genre building synthesizer turns into a brain. the moog overrules all conventions of musical form, the machine becomes an unpredictable furious beast. the 808 cowbell develops an uncanny, emotional quality. a techno track as gripping as a cliffhanger. len fakis >odyssee ii< relates perfectly the dramatic tension of redshapes track. the absorbing sounds just soaks you in. through the whole accoustic journey of the track, you feel his sense for the special athmosphere of the berghain which reminds clubbers of a medieval cathedral
