dj support by : 2000 and one, karotte, james flavour, tobi neumann.... after already four strong 12inches on audiomatique we proudly welcome back robert babicz with his fifth audiomatique release: >dark flower< is a shiny groover accompanied y a beautiful remix from rotterdam based techno-veteran joris voorn. the a-side features two new tracks by robert, >dark flower< & >spiralboogie<. >dark flower< showcases roberts typical handwriting: a dry, but funky groove construct with melancolic and deep synths while some highly seductive bass slaps create this very special babicz feeling. >spiralboogie< spreads its magic on a2. slowly building, having the funk in the trunk and fully focussed on simple, but reliable qualities. forward ever, backwards never. the flipside holds our chefs suggestion: an extraordinary joris voorn remix of >dark flower< which already stirred a huge buzz when steve bug tested it on his recent japan-tour or robert played it out in brasil last month. joris voorns mix perfectly combines floating harmonies with a thrilling drive. simply irresistible

loved by alex from tokyo, alex attias, ame, dixon, marcus worgull, peter kruder, roland appel, tony lionni and many more.. fabrice lig, the prince of everything electronic, is back after his very acclaimed x-slaves. he delivers the goods once again, starting off here with chapter one in a purple raw trilogy. first up is the track, based around a jerky syncopated rhythm and a very dry kick, which remains light all the way. as usual, lig’s arrangements evolve progressively before they wipe us away with their screeching pads and synthetic melodies. a great mixture of minimal techno and detroit nostalgia. no doubt, the more efficient track produced by fabrice lig and hammered by dixon, ame, alex attias, quarion… much more aggressive, bump bump is built around fat analogue sounds, or acid noises if you prefer which seem to emulate screaming animals. one is easily carried away by an animalistic groove that keeps on building from the beginning till the end. it all ends with the very funky the riff pourpre, a perfect crossover between metro area and parliament. the retro sounds sit nicely on a big fat beat, the kind which lig excels in.

samuel rouanet aka reynold aka duplex 100 (together with phil stumpf) also boss of trenton is releasing here his first full ep on his own label. after a year of serious boredom when it comes to techno music and especially what is the so called >minimal< sound, he decided to release what is his own vision of dance music. >poison in my mind< has a strong bass line and triplets chords that drives you while the melody comes in and out. >blue steel< is more of an old school anthem with strings and detroit vibes. >craft<“ is what reynold does the best, electro deep cinematographic tune, close to the work he did on persona with his >my favorite film< album. >like it or leave it

back to back killer selection and re works from one of frances hypest dj of the moment. smart re edits of these two hard to find slices of funk wax. original pressings reach stupid prices on ebay like sites... smiling is a belgium disco funk that very few know about. original version going from time to time very cheesy, it really needed a re edit to reach a much deserved club exposure. jammaster is a pretty sought after chicago funk classic, but strangely enough it got a very particular new jersey feel to it, even recalling some early blaze tracks... played and playlisted with the likes of dj cam, inflagranti, orest, pilooski...

thumping house gear from ferrer and sydenham on this 10inch release on ibadan. behind a booming bassline and a little french kiss synth influence as well, double penetration is perfect for that late night floor action, with a little progressive feel in the sweeping synth lines setting it off just right. both mixes glide effortlessly along - in fact if you get 2 copies and play both sides one after the other, the results would be outstanding!

ferrer and sydenham having been knocking out some superb stuff on the ibadan label recently, and sandcastles doesnt break the streak, with its sublime piano line coming into its own late in the mix after a lengthy lead in of subtle percussion, throbbing kickdrum and stellar synth play. a warm and lush track, the cut builds through the beats, to the piano line and finally to vocal refrain and a wall of synth strings that round this track off perfectly.
