part 1 of the new double-release from tiefschwarz aims at the heart of house music: soul. “on&on” is a first-class arranged club track. starting off with a wonderful mellow theme, that is adumbrated by the bass line in an one-and-a-half minute long exposition. the track ups the tempo with an additional hi-hat resolving into a shuffle beat. in double time, we move on towards the first break. here an edgy, minor key-chord sequence is introduced, making it obvious for everyone, that this track is gonna take off. eventually the keys function as a counterpoint to the classic bass line. a four-to-the-floor “on&on” vocal sample takes over after the break, adding another percussive aspect. as the track goes on a mulitiplicity of side elements sets in - no room for tediousness! in the end the “on&on” vocals resolve into “it’s so simple… . who knows, but this could be a broad hint to all the tech-house academics out there. no matter what, this grande finale raises a smile from every last sweaty soul on the dancefloor. with “best inn” on the b-side tiefschwarz create a dance classic, dressed in 2009 fashion. reminiscent of long gone nu-groove times, a traditional house beat - including a tiny off-beat tinker bell - blasts out of the speakers. a slured synth-organ provides the track with that certain edgyness. here, the brothers keep it laid-back yet exciting at the same time. this piece goes on and on and on - and you yourself run alongside, not wanting to pause. but watch out! at the latest in the second break, tiefschwarz put nostalgia to the test via some shockingly muffled metal drums. one of these moments, where you wish yourself back into the middle of an eight-hour deep-house set in 1992. the train departs. one thrillingly beautiful landscape after another runs by, until the warm sun strokes of the south suddenly rouse you out of slumber. arrived

>theres a rat in the kitchen what am i gonna do? theres a rat in the kitchen what am i gonna do?…im gonna teach that rat thats what im gonna do, im gonna teach that rat, thats what im gonna do<… sang ub40 back in the day but these days the best way to teach a rat to dance is to hit it with the latest made to play release from jan driver. the shadowy figure that is jan driver lurks in the depths of the berlin dance scene and only exposes himself to strangers in the park and via the medium of unleashing massive sonically charged dance floor bombs like >rat alert<. for more than twelve years he has been producing on labels as diverse as polydor, am:pm, virgin, southern fried and klang elecronik as well as his own imprint, grandpetrol. this release is causing a massive stir with the heads that matter including roland rat, ratty out of wind in the willows, stuart little, splinter and most importantly dean gaffney aka rat robby out of eastenders who uses it to ease the pain of being an unemployed actor. whether youre a cat, rat or straight up t*at you need to buy this, love it, play it and scare the sh*t out of the local vermin in a club near you.

der thal is been playing all over germany and hes been trying to build up his own sound and skills. after making a great remix of reynolds track >craft< on trenton 027 he is now giving us 3 great tracks for a full maxi. mentona ep is a bit of a journey into what trenton use to be about at the very beginning with a techno that is very close to the old school detroit vibe… in der thals music there are a lot of melodic sounds and tough tight beats to keep us on the ground. >mentona< and >maszo< are floating on air with strings and synth lines when >puston< reminds us more of some >tejada< grooves! a great ep anyway from der thal who is definitely on the way to become one of these great young gifted producers that care about music mainly.

groovebox ep is filled with some class a material for the raunchy dancefloor. first up there is into the club. this track is typical for channel x: it will blow off the roof in the club! as the title of the track already suggests, this is another one of channel xs lengthy journeys into nightlife extravaganzas. a wonderful fidgety bassline and a loop filled with loads of soulful vocal samples from strong male leads to sensitive female souls, this tune is both deep, touchful and destroying. the chainsaw effect session in the middle paves the way for more stomping tech-house business. no time to recover from this, because on the flip its straight onto the floor with wake up: a loop thats made of trillions of little cut-up effects, vocal bits and some straight four to the floor business. after a playful beginning the tune moves into an hypnotic piece of trippy techno only to be converted into a restless party anthem for the Überpeak-time. sick! perhaps there is some time to chill with the last of the three tracks that is against the wall. here it becomes clear what channel x are best at: to create dark, hard and moving electronic music with that special ingredient that is soul. this track is a perfect example: some frightening effects, lots of reverb on the creepy samples, but such a wonderfully harmonic sample that seems to shed light at the end of the never-ending afterhour. if there is a message to this music, it would be: you need to look hard, but there is always love. once again label boss oliver koletzki has picked up these two very talented producers very early upon their career and it has paid off: in one release being better than the one before
