born in cape town, and now living in manchester, alex blaxx is 21 years-old. buzzin flys ben watt ran across his music in september 2012 after a tip-off on influential music blog fluxmusic.net and went on to preview one of the tracks on his bbc 6music 6mix residency a couple of nights later, it garnered the most texts and tweets for any track played that night.
the upshot is alexs debut three-track ep on buzzin fly. simple raw, deep house.

explores a path that displays alexs intense & thoughtful approach to music. 4 tracks of catchy, emotive, techno-based music. in turns funky, ethereal, monsterous, & raw, alex doesnt subscribe to any particular style, yet remains stylish.

next release on claap coming up and it is another gummihz affair! after his last release on claap head rush last summer was snatched by the guys at defected for the defected in the house series, alex is back with his next record aptly titled rejuvenation ep. this two tracker carries a pair of absolutely necessary house grooves. rejuvenation features an elegant arpeggio which builds up to an intense crescendo bound to hypnotize dancefloors the world over. intense but very elegantly produced it carries alex’s signature sound and explores a similar musical territory to secret voyage (claap004) which has received overwhelming responses since its release. the motif on the flip side remains similar but with a more mature soundscape, showcasing alexs endless sonic diversity. add a bonus beatzz extract to round up an essential ep for the open air season and not only.

alexs take on gotta blast, turns it into a pumping tech-house monster making it the perfect tool for every dj. amsterdams one and only shinedoe takes the track into a dreamy techno direction, a style for which we know her best.

big with: sebo k, ryan crosson, dario zenker, lee burridge, shlomi aber, seth troxler, lee curtiss, brothers vibe, reboot, karotte, dubfire, mathias kaden, ellen allien, ame, joris voorn, .. italian born alex picone has been an integral member of the bass culture family since the label launch. his thai ep, our second release, found critical acclaim from both djs and dance press. backed by its chris carrier remix, the ep gathered strong support from the likes of loco dice, luciano, tiefschwarz, dj hell, ame and more. alex was soon following his ep, with a remix for arnaud le texier on ivory machine ep from bcr005. again receiving huge praise and support from his peers. when hes not at the helm of the bass culture express, alex can be found releasing work on such highly acclaimed labels as cadenza, bosconi and tenax. whilst his output may not be as prolific as some, each and every release stands the test of time. this may be down to alexs unique and unnerving ability to cross genres, however we feel its simply down to the unrivalled quality of his productions. a quality that is once again in evidence on his, en pensant ep. four wonderfully varied original cuts and a summery phil weeks remix that range from the smooth as silk, vocal-lead title track, to the deep and elegantly twisted coco verde.

shadow ray is best known in house music circles as the co-producer of the oasis 1, 13, 13 1/2 and 14 releases with omar s, although he is also well known to the ryan correctional facility for more nefarious reasons. the detroit-based producer has spent the past four years at ryan earning not only a hard knocked life but a trade in sound engineering. that was until alex smith (aka omar s) made a presentation to the facility s parole board to commission a remix of his recent hit >heres your trance now dance< as part of rays work release program! rumour has it the parole board was inhabited by at least one old school house head, and we re delighted to see alexs idea come to fruition, with shadow ray really nailing it with this remix. staying true to original s shimmering melody, ray opts to bolster the bottom end with a raw bassline that creates a nice, fat rolling groove

two tracks that spit in the face of all those harmless, flat and cheesy >we want to be played by everybody< productions and its of course alex who takes the risk. supersonic flattens down everything with an incredible bassy basis which even almost sucks the bassdrum. classic techno and a sure shot on every technoset. centerangle on the flip is kind of slowed down and much more adventurious compared to supersonic. the breaks and the startup after them are causing riots in alexs sets right now the crispy, powerful production of this tune is nothing else as another example of alex trademark: techno in its basic sense!

factor city is proud to welcome on board berlin-based producer alexander kowalski with this >puesta de sol<. alexs accomplishments need no introduction, we all know his productions and his amazing live act. hes been years producing cuts of cutting-edge techno for the likes of kanzleramt or different. now he just launched his own label damage berlin. his debut in factor city >puesta de sol< is an enormous peak-time club killer. on the flip stimming remix shows why hes one of the rising producers at this time. his rework of >puesta de sol< is just another step forward. he delivers a stripped down warehouse version full of tension and surely another hit.

already supported by nick curly, dan ghenacia, markius fix, robert dietz and more!
alex is back with his london home cinematic recordings - this time with a 4 track stormer! >north london cutz ep< is a homage to his inspirational north london neighborhood - where his infamous >rhythm tech< studio is based during the last couple of years - and he got it just right! he delivers a phat 4-tracker with plenty of moods to choose from!
on the a side >bellawatt< - a big room techno with a disco feel and a rumbling bassline on point with todays sound. a2 brings us >ductile< introducing a jackin chicago vibe with a more techno attitude on the beats and a pumping tribal groove on the subs. >this goes out to ron hardy he from chicago< belches the spoken word. funked up to the max! on the flip >route 277< is a warm tech house affair with a dub mood and a strong banging hihat beat and the last joint goes deep and techy with a hypnotic vocal and a haunting oriental melody, all summed up in a percussive jungle mood. overall a very strong and dj friendly release to stay in the box and a perfect follow up to alexs latest releases on arearemote, cecille and tuning spork earlier this year!

a fresh addition to the moodmusic roster but a longtime veteran in the house-scene, alexander maier aka dj all*star from stuttgart is well known from his earlier releases on buzzin fly, exun and criminal records. he began his career playing underground techno in south of germany but over the years became more and more influenced by detroit and chicago house. you can hear these influences on sahara in both the rain and river version. deep and reduced grooves with enough soul and atmosphere, yet fully functional for the floor, sahara rain kicks in with a heavy bass sequence building a perfect platform to be followed by the synththeme which hit s the peak hour perfectly. i see some hands going up here already… sahara river starts more housey, building a classy, low-slung huge groove with perculating synths and almost tribal feel to the drums. the modulating synths lifts the track to new heights with a break of superbly layered twisted pads before the drums kick back in in full effect. as this would not be enough we asked our thrusted chicago connection and alexs buddy, mazi aka audio soul project to remix sahara rain. if you consider people who s been in the biz for some time mazi is one of the warriors of the sound, never choosing the easy way but thrustfully following his true way of house music. and house it is, classic but cleverly updated to 2008 with a twist of so-cal thrown in for good measure. bouncey and jacking is the words which comes into mind when hearing this, excellent work and a another bomb for the hot months to come
