top quality remastered reissue of ike strongs disco boogie classic >boogie land<. originally released back in 1981 on the tiny underground disco label willker, this dancefloor bomb is now hugely in-demand.
both sides are absolute killers - the a side features great vocals from ike strong over super funky phat bass and wah wah guitars but dont forget the flip side where the groove get stripped down to the bare instrumental funk with just the relentless driving female vocal >you cant help but dance when you hear it boogie land< - she couldnt be more right! must have.

eagerly awaited vol 6 on richard sens mixed blood cuts series sees the baton handed over to melbourne based >pom< golden fleece. the first cut on this 2 tracker >dancin in the nude< sees t-rexs marc bolan fronting a futuristic glam band jam. plenty of (cow) bells, whistles, wonky synths, even the occasional kitchen sink thrown in for good measure! this jam has been tearing up dancefloors on both sides of the planet. on the flip >ciao bella< takes us on an epic dark journey with a full 11 minute long work out of bauhauss >bela lugosis dead< getting a modern fix up with a night stopover in detroit for good measure. golden fleece drops the bpm of the original and respectfully sprinkles over some of his own dub glitter purely for the benefit of the dancefloor! andrew weatherall has been championing this cut

two more missives from the leng stable, a stable basking in late afternoon sunshine the whole year round. here we have two remixes of cantoma tracks. on side a is ray mangs remix of under the stars a subtle disco groove, with a sweet rolling bass and a languid horn line that gently eases into the back of your mind, luring you into a hypnotic swirl. over on side-b lexx steps up to deliver an equally stunning take on gambara immdediately setting out a more electronic lilt, the track steadily builds into a mid tempo throb as the vocals wash over proceedings, while flute and acoustic guitar make way for each other in the melody stakes. timeless sounds on both sides evoking the summer just passed

here we have yet another vinyl release to supplement the highly anticipated cos/mes album. while the first three singles boasted massive a-sides backed with incredible remixes, this release contains two exquisite album cuts deserving their own slab of vinyl. natural lifespan (acid orchestra mix) is a slice of pure bliss, a mid-tempo jam to which you can hug your friends as the sun rises. on the flip, i-bizan (build the progressive band) rides a stomping and tainted rhythm into a dark den of iniquity. pass the lotion

the long term, super-productive story of class-act producers phonique and tigerskin continues with the next installment on ladies & gentlemen. over 4 tracks (and one more digital bonus) the pair explore their passionate, freaky and funky sides in this, perhaps the most functional release on the label yet! phonique throws us two hot ones with sandman and longdrink. the former skips through tripping, tooly and percussive territories while the latter goes all out with addictive rolling bass and hedonistic synth passages. marrying an old-school flavour with high-end, modern moments, phoniques side of this unmissable 12inch is just as strong as his legendary dj sets! tigerskin then takes centre stage with loop back in time and tonys riff. >in time< grows from a rolling drum array into a surging disco fueled killer, that whisks us away to a brighter age with its soaring strings!

a1. >everybody techno< - this is typical of gideons dance floor techno style, thick beats with a marching bass-line. from the first beat we are guided through a tough no-holds-barred trip into an unforgiving world of the darker sides of techno music. a retrospective vocal with a sinister laugh completes this evil peak-time track.
a2. >flight to right now< - this minimal track snaps along with a very basic beat and synth combo. the synth rises as the track progresses to keep dance floors moving. there is a wonderfully simple aspect to this track that gets under the skin and allows people to really connect with it.
b1. >recession tool< (vocal mix) - recession tool is a chunky tech house track with a wonderfully chewed up vocal and ever-present reverse snares. the track pumps forward until a nice rising breakdown lifts to complete with more vocals and intricate drum loops.
b2. >rico< - rico is a long progressive track with a slow builds and a warped lead line. the least aggressive track on the ep and possibly the least expressive. that said, it still ticks along seamlessly with a perfectly crafted warble and smart drums.

label on a is wrong - same tracks on both sides (hands of jahoviah + dub) - a-side cut at 33rpm, b-side at 45 rpm.

et voila. this is the first release from our newly launched vidab x series. its vidabs new platform, that aims to show some of the unknown and unexpected sides of our artists.

kaine teams up with kathy diamond for this soulful disco gem. b-sides >phathead< gets the remix treatment from mudd bondi.

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.

>the hissing subsides< is rico puestels (also well known as dinamoe) selection of pure bliss deep house. each of the four tracks has a different potential. whilst >dammit im mad< and >carving down< go straight to the floor with pounding tech house grooves, >dler< and >i only wear this bonnet here< take the listener to the dubbier sides of house.

tolga fidan, in his last tasty impartment on vakant before his solo debut album due out in october of this year, brings 2 full sides of the most expansive mind and body moving you will find outside of a gypsy circle on jupiter. if techno has a jazz fusion subgenre, a-side >gaijin< is it, making tolga our own personal chick corea with a strobe light.

james braun is one of the new exciting producers out of denmark, with his strong productions he have earned great respect amongst djs like jesse rose and claude vonstroke. this is the second release from the danish producer on tartelet. the original is, like usually, a combination between solid house, great producing skills and james’ urge for experimenting with genre and sounds. with detroit-ish string theme and bass driven groove the original is fun, intriguing yet powerful. on the b-side tartelet are proud to present a remix by claude vonstroke, who wanted to do it after heavy support of brauns earlier material. the remix features many of the original elements but in updated and very danceable version. label-man tomas barfod shows us his darker sides on his remix. barfod takes symphonia late-night with string pad, dirty drums, spacy synths and deep-bass.

we are so proud to welcome the talented producer from chicago, kate simko, known for her great work on spectral. kate send us 2 amazing pieces of music... a-side, >lost in time<, made during a trip in argentina, shows the deep, intense and intimist sides of kate music. dark grooves lead by an amazing atmosfere made of pads, synths and keys... like dop said... they were in love with it, and wanted to remix it badly. on the b-side, the dop remix is a great reinterpretation of the track with a pop feeling, where jaw bring his vocals. another version of the remix, a really and special one will be released in 2010 on eklo. the second track gets in a more housey feeling, but still deep with famous kates rhodes/synthssounds, and a great toms hooks leading the track through her groovy organic and analogue rhythm.

following a number of remix works from olmeto records at the close of 2009, our first release of 2010 puts bushwacka! back in charge. two sublime house tracks with masterful percussion both dripping with style.
>battered< paves the way with tribal rhythms, flutes and chants whilst >sw4< takes an edgier electronic route. olm026 showcases two very different sides to bushwackas personality, both of which are supremely relevant on todays dancefloors…

the yore captain returns to his own yore imprint on the labels 21st release. shadow city presents different visions of funky house grooves. the a sides the y theme gets deeply moving with a funky house pulse before stoking the fire with the addition of speaking voices (trippingly intoning the q&a what are we doing this for? and the music), a move which single-handedly jumpstarts the track. after the voices appear, the grooves intensity escalates and plunges deeper, its gyroscopic house swing becoming more dizzying and torrential with each passing bar before coming to an acidy storming end. in its opening moments, shadow city opts for a deeper and more serenading vibe by comparison, but thats traded in for a slinkier attack at the three-minute mark that grows progressively more ferocious as the track makes its drastic upwards ascent. a trippin dangerous murder weapon to say the least. watch your heads! the b sides b2 track, mumbai dweller keeps the focus primarily on the bottom end, specifically a strutting tribal-house funk groove thats dragged even deeper by a throbbing bass undertow, adding dark chords to it, giving this ep a darker feeling towards the end. to sum it all up: this is raw house music at its best!

logoshirt with imprints on both sides (100% cotton)

both sides are ace! a side is a psychedelic afro track with a great bassline coming like straight from those early house tracks we all love so much. runner up is a love boat style disco track, in perfect balance, bringing you visions of half naked girls on the sandy beaches of portugal. tiago is dropping another couple of dancefloor bombs, thats for sure!

surprise and super-limited new release from kieran hebden, following up the blink-and-you-will-miss-it collaboration with burial on another mysteriously undorned and brilliant 12 inch for his own text imprint. on >love cry< b/w >our bells<, he succinctly shows both sides of his oeuvre, the lush love of the dancefloor, and a chance to exercise his more esoteric inclinations. the live-sounding drums, gorgeously nuanced textures and blissful samples of >love cry< couldnt really come from anyone else, especially when enveloped well into the track and the vocal loops begin to peel off into a deep house-meets-krautrock coda executed with that signature sleight of hand. if you are only going to put out two 12 inches in a year, youd expect the attention to detail to be high, and here its absolutely exquisite. with >our bells< on the flip he crafts a sublime beatless, gamelan influenced piece, like the kosmiche resonance of the flip is allowed to seep through and glimmer all over the grooves, radiating incandescent ambient harmonics with a lustrous psychedelic blur. seriously righteous wares, for the lovers…(be quick!)

john tejada was marooned in los angeles in the summer of 82. a strange place to grow up coming from vienna austria. even stranger considering the lack of techno there in the 90s. in a land of glowsticks and desert parties, tejada stuck to his love and development of his own unique electronic sound. fast forward to 2007 when detroit area native josh humphrey was also marooned in los angeles. it didnt take long for the two to meet and connect the cables on their modulars into a system twice as big. the result is marooned, palettes newest collaboration between john tejada and josh humphrey. the trio of songs reveal three sides to the duos work. the title track, marooned, joins humphreys modular synth work with tejadas beats and soothing pads, the result being a slice of beat-driven melodic techno created in a city where such sounds are rarely heard. melodiac continues from there with a lighter mood, with humphreys modular melodies and tejadas signature stabs and rhythms. rounding out the three is concrete safari, which largely focuses on humphreys modular fm synth work that slowly evolves into a cluster of tribal sounds, modular birds and grainy goodness. humphreys knowledge of synths and programming is quite extensive. he currently works with la based big city music, a dealer of modular and boutique synthesizers. it is also a place tejada frequents to test most of his gear

the title of max coopers stochastisch serie ep, refers to his use of stochastic methods, also known as non-deterministic, or random methods of sound generation. stochastic elements referring here mainly to real sounds including vocal experiments and sampled sounds which create a complexity and richness which has been a trademark of many well known traum releases in the past. the london based artist max cooper sees his new 12 inch as a construction of different moods going beyond club music, as witnessed in the past through tracks such as i and end of reason. it is no surprise that dischordance is another one of these timeless pearls alongside these mentioned tracks that have created a fan base worldwide for him. the friction max generates is created by two sides colliding, the synthesised drums and melodies and the random experiments with voice. his dance floor rockers stochastisch serie and mnemonic work in a much more functional way but do include bits of this randomness and therefore are part of the superstructure stochastisch serie. the remix of uk producer leeks is very hip in style and sound and will please a lot of younger djs who love the cool swing and groovyness with music and will find the functionlism here going very strong.

home taping is killing music is a fresh new imprint that is all about a return to house music. producer of the moment the revenge (instruments of rapture/jisco music) kicks things off for the label in fine style with the stunning >forever in their debt<. a homage to the house producers that have influenced them and the artists whose samples have continued to drive house music forward expertly channeling the spirit of early chicago warehouse music, but with a modern production twist that truly captures that classic sound, but packs enough punch to wipe the floor with most of its peers. on the flip, maverick producer and dj red rack em (tirk/untracked/deep freeze) takes the track on a road trip to detroit, and produces a deep, moody and atmospheric version which brings to mind the work of pepe bradock and theo parrish. two sides, two flavours. both 100% house
