the second outing on frittomorto is by subway who have previous releases on nuphonic, sunday best and souljazz....they also have a forthcoming album on souljazz. the a side cs-87 is exactly the sort of tackle that you would expect mathew jonson to come up with if he was born twenty years earlier and had met vince lawrence and ron hardy in an all night gentlemens sauna. the flip side second sign sounds a bit like black dog before they went crap

kenneth james gibson is a man of many different personas. the list of his releases over the past years is way too much for this infosheet, so lets skip this part for now. under the moniker of apendics.shuffle hes visiting mos ferry prod. for the third time. >you got my harmony< is not only a title for this e.p. you can take this phrase literally. his sound fits the label like few others. along with his two extremely grooving tracks >finding harmony< and >you got my< the package also contains two remixes by tim xavier and olene kadar. they definitely share our faible for >frickelsound<. tim turnes the original track in a dry, more driven techno version. olene - with young ambition and restlessness - starts quiet relaxed, but carries his arrangement of the given samples to the extreme, again

since their first releases on circus company and milnormodern the 3 mousketeers achieve to impose themsleves on the scene with their unik touch. the band is clement zemtsov on beat programing, damien vandesande on keyboards and horns at last but not least, jonathan illel is warmly laying the lyrics. after having produced hip-hop instrumental for a few years they got into house music after meeting nicolas from nôze. one year and a half later they come up with between the blues ep, a brilliant first ep on circus company. then the guys several eps on other labels like orac or eklo. they also start touring a lot across europe and eastern countries. this new record is called blanche neige (snow white) as the lead track of the ep. all the lyrics from it are taken from the original text written by jacob & whilelm grimm back in 1812. .blanche neige is declined in two different versions. on the a side comes the original mix is the dancefoor cut. slower house beat, solid groove, surround by a marvelous chior. while the break show upreading the first lines of snow white in french. let me just tell you that when the break is over you should fasten your seat belt before a nice take off… the first track on b side is romeo. this track was produced by dop and nôze. once again all the lyrics are taken from a book. here its from .romeo and juliet written by william shackespeare. this track perfectly represent the alliance of both bands. the unik saxophone skills from damien vandesande the one man horn section, a wonderfull piano ride by nôze and the sexy voice of jonathan illel. an acoustic house blaster ! the ep is finaly closing down on b2 with the pop version of blanche neige called >kinder cut. there comes the deepness

eigenlob stinkt, also schnell die wäscheklammer auf die nase. wir haben immer schon gewusst, dass matias aguayo ein jahrhunderttalent ist. seit seinen ersten gehversuchen mit michael mayer als zimt oder später mit dirk leyers als closer musik und mit marcus rossknecht als broke und vor allem auch solo weiss matias immer wieder zu Überraschen. seine dj-/live-sets gelten von buenos aires Über paris bis köln als legendär und: visionär! nach seinem tongue-in-cheek sommerhit minimal lag matias jedoch nicht auf der faulen haut, sondern hat mal eben en passant eine der inspiriertesten techno eps der jüngeren geschichte aus dem hut gezaubert. der titeltrack walter neff ist ein gnadenloser poptechno-ohrwurm und dancefloor-destroyer zugleich. der teufel muss ihm diese bassline verraten haben! one for the ladies... bei rebolledo style schraubt matias das drecklevel kräftig hoch und serviert einen hochenergetischen chicago-meets-baile-funk-meets-pianohouse-slammer. dann rundet matias die platte mit einem weiteren ausnahmetrack ab, carter msp. die bassline ist schlichtweg krank, dabei aber unglaublich sexy und uplifting. ernsthaft, alle drei tracks sind derart brilliant, dass man sich fragt, warum fast alle anderen platten im vergleich mit der walter neff ep so Öde sind? so, jetzt könnt ihr die wäscheklammer wieder abnehmen.

its been a while since the last release by mark august on connaisseur, but now hes back with an extraordinary one. two tracks, both like a fairytale of a country far, far away. a fable, with mystic and mysterious animals and creatures, might best describe what mark had in mind while working on the tracks. the wasps from tunisia and the silver piggy – the main track on this release is an uncommon piece of music. it starts moody and with a stoic pumping beat, yet also a somehow laidback feeling. it then unexpectedly and surprisingly builds up to a monster of a track, working manically towards its climax. then however, over the length of the track, it completely transforms again, coming back to its beginning, as though nothing had ever happened. scorpions groove is a deep and dubby affaire.

omanko is the only word that is unmentionable in japanese media and public speech. its also the next single from catz n dogz - a strange hybird of cinematic swells, quirky natural drums and popping guitar plucks. its unorthodox groove builds relentlessly, anchored by a shouting chorus and warm bass bubbles that swell from the depths like some massive ancient sea creature. they take their time building to the climax, finishing the track with late-entering keyboard theme that quickly swirls into a frenzy. perfect for tipping that peaktime crowd over the edge! the italoboyz remix completely remolds the groove to fit their distinctive vision, seamlessly integrating shards from the original into their tension-fuelled agenda. breakdowns of varying sizes dominate the sonic landscape, as their annihilating kick plays hide and seek with the strings throughout the track. finally, all the elements are reunited by the echo-drenched vocal line and percussive baritone sax stabs – a satisfying finale to this latenight masterpiece.

after having a small break, now the label founders enliven deep acoustics strikes back with a minimal tech funk double- tracker. ruled by an picked oriental basslineand arabic voices and percussions they created a straight forward dance machine.side b comeswith a remix by marek hemmann with his real own style, he has also shown on the debut release elm001. don’t forget the summer…

skylax records, the company focused on realeasing original obscure dance classic and everythings that sounds fine to their ears! for our 11th release , we decided to bring you guys a brand new track from the italo master of all time: the fantastic beppe loda under the name italowerk. honestly, we were not expecting anything, as he did so much for electronic music already for the past 20 years, resident at the legendary typhoon club in italy (brescia), playing a huge amount of electronic underground tracks that are praised today by clubbers & vinyl fetishists, he created also what we called today afro cosmic. we could sum up his new project just by its name italowerk = kraftwerk meets underground italo. the first track is called sognando that we could translate by dreaming. indeed, this is a very powerfull track, that sounds almost like an italo lost gem (circa 1982) but with an incredible modern feeling, full of crazy electro synths, arpeggios and a terrible kick: an athem!

scott grooves comes with a sweet ass 12inch on clone. 2 sublime tracks by the guy that was one of the main influences for many people. one of the most independent minds in the whole us house and techno scene. for the last 10 years he only released on his own labels. and after his masterpiece >the journey collection< we are proud to present these 2 new cuts that are just as timeless and good as that monumental record! these two tracks are a warm up for the upcoming riddum collection scheduled later this year and remind us very much of his journey collection , but also to the other peoples place (warp & clone) and even a bit of metro area. maybe we shouldnt compare because these tracks stand on their own.. but this ultimate dopeness for the dance floor! must have

steffen baumann & stefan hollaender got the inspiration for that track from the shant of an unknown shaman. the hypnotic vocals and the massiv bassline make the track to an bomb somewhere between deep-house & tech-house. the >taste t meets wishes & dreams remix< on has much more progressiv-house elements. the bassline of the original tracks is picked up by a warm but also pumping synth line. the track is released on a 10 inch record.

a welcome return to these labels with some killer cuts on 1 hot sampler kenny dope & roy davis also return with the uk representing on the flipside

another serious result from our warehouse rummaging! si begg is a man of many musical personalities, his list of aliases is impressive to say the least (bigfoot, buckfunk3000, lenny logan, s.i. futures, zygmunt janowski...). but one of his oldest, and certainly one of his strangest, is cabbage boy. in fact i confess i am old enough to remember his releases in the early 90s on cassette tape under the umbrella of the >cabbage head collective< (which also included such techno notables as cristian vogel & tim wright) - and pretty mental they were too. the lost tapes vol. 1 doesnt disappoint on that front, containing such gems as a remix of 80s pop mysteries frank chickens>we are ninja<, and an electronic cover version of >king kong< by frank zappa (ask your parents...). totally out there, but totally cool at the same time...highly recommended to anyone looking for something with some real personality amidst the hard-drives full of faceless (and usually nameless) digital fluff

the into the night ep is a wonderful deep, slow & moving record that should be one of the highlights in this years autumn sessions. into the night kicks off with some wild pitch – alike chords and builds up soulful, moody but strong. tectonic move is so damn groovy and might be one the funkiest trax ever coming out of the metaworld universe of matt flores. also the tempo of almost 120 bpm is sexy as hell... all percussions & the bass are played live by matt flores. “tectonic move” also features some extatic detroitish synths that makes you scream. a definitive winner! the tectonic move flores & saenger dub has been rearranged a bit by matt flores and farsides ingo saenger (one half of westpark unit). they stripped the tune, put more focus on the groove and re dubbed all harmonies & synths. the result is a funky smokers riddim for all you dubby tool headz out there.

big one! spins from mandy, sebo k, dyed soundorom, glimpse, rob mello, jennifer cardini, adam beyer, anja schneider, h.o.s.h, ripperton, konrad black, martin landsky, afrilounge, dorian paic, matt tolfrey, kiki, mathias tanzmann, jimpster, nick curly, david k, eric borgo, okain,… ‘junkyard funk’ was one of the seminal house albums to come out of the uk in 2000. masters of the deep groove clive henry, also resident at dc10, and justin drake are one of the most respected duo’s in house music with over 10 years experience in the business. whilst many contemporaries have fallen by the wayside peace division have remained at the forefront of underground house. following 2007’s seminal ‘soft heavy’ ep for crosstown rebels, 2008 has seen them release a second coast 2 coast compilation for nrk and the critically acclaimed ‘the lab’ ep on tsuba. part 1 of ‘junkyard funk reconstructions’ sees jamie jones and rozzo update the classics. jamie jones has always been heavily inspired and influenced by peace division so when the opportunity arose to remix the seminal ‘bu4t’ he was more than a little excited. the result is his biggest remix to date.

already played by ame. to proof once again tretau is on top of his game, he comes with this killer ep preceding his anticipated debut album bricks to be released on fortek early 2009. this ep also covers the complete aural spectrum from heavy dancefloor techno to melodious techouse.

there is the 2nd part of the faze series from sam rouanet aka reynold (boss of trenton records) with one hell of a track called straight into the wall, a straight up (real) shuffled groove with nice chords and a killer electro bass line! the remix from till vons sein is definitely as good… deeper. great work from till though, he is really on the ramp right now and we will see more of his work on the upcoming trenton releases. also a new signed artist on the label is der thal that is giving us a remixed version of the craft tune from reynolds faze part.1 recent ep.

responsible for this tartelet release is debutant mhm one aka morten halborg-møller. he s a local lad from copenhagen who has decided to give something back to the world of electronic music that he loves so much. before he decided to sit in the producer chair, he spend huge amounts of time on his copenhagen based kill your telly promotion. a promotion which has more than 5 succesful years on it s back and has featured a huge tally of big name bookings. said promotion at which he started out his djing career resulting in him being one of the most sought after djs in denmark. being the creative and gifted spirit that he is, music and clubbing is not the only thing that keep him occupied. he also expresses himself via visual artwork earning the fourth spot in the renowned graphic art collective that is bottega areté.... and oh yeah ...did we mention what a nice bloke he is? a1: the a side features a funky little groover that will fit well into a club where punters prefer to dance. the track is build around a playful bassline hook accompanied by a simple and catchy vocal (by who made who member tomas hoffding) a really sweet minimal workout for sure, that really does the trick. b1: on the flip side we get served a dish of bass heavy house. this time it s dutch house supremo melon who sorts out the remix treatment and turns bubububadub into a tribal ish affair. suited for big clubs? check. sexy? check. playable? very much so.

after 2 smashing eps on switch and sinden s imprint counterfeet, radioclit is back with their brand new signature sound secousse on mental groove records. inspired by the street sounds of angola, pretoria or abidjan, secousse is a future afrobeat anthem and is currently being turned into a vocal monster starring all the great singers and rappers who came and tore the roof of the infamous secousse worldbeat residency that radioclit has been doing at the notting hill arts club over the last few months. backed up by remixes from crookers aka the biggest house producers these days, it also features a remix by bablee, a legend from the coupe-decale scene hailing out of ivory coast and author of the world wide hit sous les cocotiers .

class71 return to the constantly in-form four:twenty following the diamond door/seaphone 12 debut which won fans of just about every decent house dj around, and what a follow up it is! alba adriatica is a 13 minute excursion in to detroit flavoured house and is as subtle as it is memorable. a rounded bassline provides the movement while delicate, dubby fx create a hypnotic vibe which underpins a blissful live saxophone and rising keys. the summer is not over yet. always being attentive to djs needs, four:twenty have also included a dub for the saxo-phobes and if that wasnt enough, they bring in the legendary move d for further mixes. with a back catalogue which includes celebrated labels such as modern love, uzuri, city centre offices and liebe*detail, move d is the toast of underground house music and has delivered a vocal and dub mix of impeccable standards. utilising the fm bass and bringing the chords up in the mix, mr. d (as nobody calls him) creates a densely layed percussive dub mix which provides a perfect kickless track for creative djing while his vox mix adds both kick and some sparse but beautiful vocal touches. this is another winner from a label which continually searches out fresh talent and is more than worthy of your attention
