komplex audio kicks out a floor burner that is allready heating up the clubs all around. timemachine turned out to be a real dancefloor bomb. watch out for the mindblowing breaks that turn people crazy! on the flip hamburgs top act nudisco presents some remix work on timemachine. their tekk attack remix concentrates on a straight and also highly effective setup giving a powerful nudisco-touch to the original. last but not least there is a big surprise on b2: herz, a 102nd century remix of the brillant mandis & durden track

exium are probably the most popular techno act from spain alongside oscar mulero and christian wunsch. the boys are known for a distinct rocking, offbeat infected productions with a silk coating. the boys are pretty busy with their live tour and have finally found some time to perfect some if the tracks they have road-tested many times. this fifth ep sees the guys picking a more layed back style, and it shows pure quality! fans of the sound of dinner, warm-up, tsunami should buy this on sight.

ghostbusters is one of the most famous movies from the 80 s and so is the soundtrack! now it s time for the new soundtrack - packed in a new groovy style. produced was this new version by the one who is also responsable for the project steve n king and the rap vocals are from no one else than dj van tell who is the support act for the whole forthcoming 50 cent tour.

incl piemont rmx!! after the overwhelming initial outing by amir (bodymusic one) on suchtreflex, the fresh new hamburgian label signed none other than german minimal act lars wickinger, who already had a bunch of mind-blowing releases on reference labels like traum, opossum and liebe datail. lars, who describes his musical style as techno with a spirit from minimal and house, produced 2 extraordinary and modern sounding tech house tunes, which will definitely cause huge waves of response - so watch out! for even more musical variety, each with 2 remixes were added: the hamburg based producer duo piemont (mbf, hi freaks) reinterpreted >spooky farm< on the a1 and the very talented el carlitto (artminimal) of belgium remixed the flipside >quiche<!

limited backstock !!! brand new series on minus with exclusive tracks by plastikman, dubfire, jpls, heartthrob, gaiser and marc houle. of the continuing themes found throughout the music released on minus, one constant exploration is the relationship between sound and silence. within the stripped down but dimensional outcome there exists a polarity that is neither controlled nor accidental, where life imitates art in between the notes. the act of finding inspiration from a sonic molecule or the inaudible space around that element is the nature of expansion & contraction. limited edition double pack vinyl format features a specially embossed sleeve and black/white vinyl, reflecting the duality of the expansion & contraction concept.

piemont had a furious premiere at gedankensport. the nightshift ep caused huge waves of response. frederic möring-sack and christian de jonquieres already had an excellent reputation as solo artists the last years but as piemont they brought up an extraordinary standard of minimal techno. they run their own labels suchtreflex, hammarskjold and fingerfoodmusic. their music is suitable for peak time as well as for after hours and listening comfort. their debut gained great public interest and soon top artists supported as thomas schumacher, oliver huntemann, oliver koletzki, monika kruse, deep dish and umek supported the tracks. heavy rotation accelerated by their next act of greatness at gedankensport and now we are proud to announce the follow-up which is another wonderful milestone of minimalism!

the brighton based trio fujiya & miyagi are set to release uh, the first new material from the hotly tipped act since this years sleeper hit album transparent things. built on a solid funk backing and provocative, breathy vocals, uh is a song about space and time, the alphabet and girls, that comes across like prince gone kraftwerk. on the b side, one trick pony ups the tempo with a jogging beat and hushed vocals. needless to say, its another fine offering from the band thats currently conquering the world with their danceable, groove oriented pop

nice price deal !!! freddy mas was previously featured on codek records and tigersushi. the arc ep features 4 new tracks that were entirely written and produced byfreddy mas. not sure how to file this music, but its somewhere between electro-rock-punk-funk-house..

check out the new record from new environ act baby oliver! more hot and twisted tracks for disco jackers and neurotic nu-romantics…you dont want to miss it. baby olivers debut >primetime / hypochondriac< was an underground smash hit, gaining noteriety in sets by the finest djs from disco (metro area, prins thomas) to house/techno (praise from carl craig) and indie floors (junior boys, optimo). and its no wonder - like the best club music, baby olivers jams slice across genre divides and sound like nothing else coming out

the upon you 006 is the birth hour of the berlin duo fraenzen texas and ruede hagelstein. knowing each other since early childhood they started their dj career together in berlin. by now they are resident dj’s in the watergate club and the two build their studio into the epicentre of the upon you empire, so it is not surprising that the cheapers has become the first own label-act. related to the style of their dj sets that they prefer to play in ping-pong fashion, the fog & frogs e.p. is focusing on the contrast between dark shallows, hypnotic currents and enlightening moments full of fantasies and plenty of inanities. two tracks that stand for the amplitude of their future productions

compost black label #25 is some kind of premiere, because this is the first remix ep in the whole black label series. the protagonist in this one man play is the bavarian jack of all trades christian prommer in a new staging of wagon cookins start to play. in the past prommer has been co staring in classic performances like trÜby trio, fauna flash and voom:voom. right now he is stirring up waves of enthusiasm with his own drumlesson project on sonar collective and his floorshaking tech jazz meets classic house reinterpretation of koops drum rhythm a. but now draw the curtain and experience prommers play going through a real strong development giving each of the three acts a significant and distinctive character. from the slowly building ecstasy in the main mix and the uplifting joy in the piano scene to the sublime floating and jamming in the closing act he convinces in every role. great deep house theatre!

after fantastic releases on traum, liebe detail, dimmer, opossum, curle,... berlins top act lars wickinger delivers a perfect 3 tracker on tanzbar musik! the a-side track >after dark< is defintly a big hit! melodic tech-house as its best! b-side: >naive<

this is a fresh & rockin kompass musik release, presenting music from the hamburg-city boy denis karimani aka remute! after lonely and quiet years of experimenting and self-discovery he released his first 12inch called >hypnoconsole< on zombie nations label dekathlon records and got remixed by munich-techno-hero richard bartz.the first livegigs followed directly and led him into smoky rave-basements, uproarious clubs, sunny open-airs, as well as shaky party-boats...due to excessive and unresting music-making, denis released lots of 12 s and made several remixes in the following years. he released records on fine labels like traum/trapez/mbf, areal , dial, num, smallville or liebe*detail, made remixes for artists like dominik eulberg, move d or station17 and released his first album >remute< on ladomat. his regular appearance in magazine polls for best live act of the year proves that this is not just theory. now, we proudly welcome this jack-of-all-trades to our yet small but nice label family at kompass musik. he contributes a bodacious three tracker, jam-packed with dirty and pushing club tracks. >slam with the face< on the a-side brings us into some rough, gruffy and exciting soundscapes, the b-side holds two more fantastic proves of remutes far-reaching talent. >cause he likes it<, a pretty deep piece of techno and >propellersweat<, a reduced but heavily effective monster track in the end rave on.!

metal on metal are three young guys who found themselves djing together at a small club in their home town of vilnius. 3 years later and the guys now run their own club in lithuania and are the only home grown act to share headline status with soulwax and the chemical brothers etc at festivals in the baltics.no front teeth is the first track they have ever recorded! it immediately started to build a word of mouth online with djs playing out the demo - one of these djs was kissy sell out who has been charting no front teeth in his top 5 for months.

der dritte raum is possibly one of the most innovative liveacts germany’s techno scene has brought forward since the early nineties, the formative years when frankfurt trance was growing into a national movement that would change the course of dance music in germany forever and inspired countless individuals with its take on electronics. with two album releases on the incredibly influential frankfurt harthouse imprint, which was partly run by pioneer dj sven väth, techno germany’s undisputed father figure who still spearheads the scene, and three album releases on virgin, there is hardly any live act and producer duo as successful and innovative as d3r

nice and chunky, keep up doing what you do so wellintroducing deadset: an act that crafts house music in some of its many disguises. the two man team used to do a lot of that, and a little bit of this. before deadset1 and deadset2 came into being, they played in the sandpit with the likes of muse, miss kittin, royksopp, tiefschwarz, justin timberlake, scissor sisters and with labels such as fine, blue fin, souvenir, made to play, wall of sound and tsuba. now they do a lot of this and only a little bit of that. disregarding this, that and the other, their tipping point has arrived… they have also been allowed to play around at the likes of weekend (berlin), panoramabar (berlin), fabric (london), the end (london) and countless other joints. lovingly nurtured, their forthcoming album, keys open doors, is about to be released into the wild from the arms of jesse rose and his front room label. music for now, with an eye on tomorrow, made with sounds of then. deadset 1 is tom mangan. deadset 2 is cass. cass + mangan is dead. long live deadset

""highgrade is back with another smash by our heroes phage & daniel dreier, a crew having an enormous flow at the moment, be it on the wheels of steel, as an explosive live act or on vinyl.they submitted us three more minimal trax out of their dark chambers, dry as hell, hypnotic and psychedelic, but with such an outburst of creativity and flexibility you just can`t categorize these trax. we are pretty sure this trax will validate some floors on their stableness; file under hypnphouse and keep the damn frequency high!.""

dj support : 2000 and one, james flavour, jennifer cardini, josh wink... sebbo the first german act on trackdown, sebbo suckfüll and denis gökdag come up with a monster that could already be called >anthem<. the track features a chord sequence that will be heard and remembered. upfront electronic house music meeting funkiness and minimalism. raphael ripperton of the lazy fat people crew, a big fan of the track himself, is on remix duty here. overlooking the lake of geneva from his studio facilities in lausanne, he watches autumn taking a firm grip of the landscape. colors are changing and fog banks hover above the lake. inspired by this view he completely changes the atmosphere of the track while preserving its funkiness. the result is a haunting, psychedelic and equally catching interpretation of the original

fabrizio and marco d arcangelo share their love for synth generated music. fond of electronic music since the british new wave invasion of the 80s, the two brothers were keen on embarking onto early experimental music through the aid of affordable samplers and pcs. in the early 90s they joined dj max durante in the asu project on hot trax, a hard techno venture which saw the release of three eps, culminating in their live act at the zurich energy 93. in the following years, two deliberately distinct projects were born, centuria city and automia division, dividing the techno and melodic edges

support by: hell, mandy, o. koletzki, inaqui marin... it is already here the long awaited album of citizen kain. the meteoric progression which they have represented all their maxis and specially its spectacular live act ones over europe, together with its increasing international recognition, causes that this disc becomes its definitive consolidation like one of the bands of the moment

great hands in the air italo disco tune. very obscure italian act from the mid- 80s with a crazy song about being a plastic doll or something. as far as we know this was the only release dharma did... probably the plastic she was made of wasn t the strongest quality... unfortunately that is because this release did definitly stand the test of time! great record and we are happy to be able to offer this again!

phuture, the ones that began and defined the acid house sound, only released a handful of tracks (plus an album a full decade after their debut), but have remained a legendary act in the development of chicago house for their stomping 1987 single >acid trax<. here we have an unreleased studio session of another phuture hit unofficially titled >slam dance<. ltd 1 sided.

notic nastic is, once more, another newcomer act on tonkind, who has to be watched with highly attention. its predicated individual sound made it become a hype on myspace within a month. so other labels, producers and popular djs already are asking to license and to remix several tracks, although it isn’t even out yet. we can t give to much infos about the backround and identity of the charachter behind this act, due to the fact that there is an aim, to stay anonym. that gives us more space to talk about the music itself and esspecialy about this debut release on tonkind

paris producers guillaume atlan (the supermen lovers) and gregory louis (aloud) have recently joined forces to form new act moto signed exclusively to cyclo records. taking their influences from 70s californian funk - rock bands and icons like stretch, chicago, prince, ac/dc, they develop a style of their own, adding a touch of electro to their live instruments (guitar, bass, vocals) to deliver sexy, uplifting tracks. >heartbreaker< their first single contains that genuine positive rock n roll attitude that will make you jump off your seat while driving a convertible car on a desert highway. >who cares< on the b-side in a more spaced out way but with that added 70s funk treatment will take you to the next lost motel where you may not find anyone but a dog to talk to. motos debut ep, have been selected as part of the soundtrack of eric lavaine new screenplay >poltergay< (out october 26th in france), a comic production where gay ghosts make the life of an ordinary, newly established couple quite difficult...

rework represents stuttgart to the fullest with this stoicly grooving, reduced funk monster that couldnt be more intense. if you are weak-hearted better stay of the floor when philpot mastermind soulphiction is loosing control chicago style with the boiling >scattered brain<.. the new act neustadt 36 by two boys from up north -zoran zupanic and torsten adam hailing from hamburg - slow it down and inject moody chords, noisy background and abstract disco cut-ups to build up high-tension challenging every suspense flick..
