massive decks.de tipp!!! this is going to be one of the big summerbombs this year ! guido schneider & jens bond sticked together for this production. they created a driving techhouse tune, wich keeps you on the dancefloor because of its fabulous mixture of groove and hypnotic vocals. on the flip, we have a tiefschwarz remix, which is more into minimal. they created a new feeling by changing the vocals into something different and reducing the beats.
>the voices< is the debut 12 inch from bobby and annie. drawing on their experiences as residents at the mint club, uk, the pair have crafted a versatile ep that sits as comfortably in a peak time set as it does on a hazy 6am dance floor. taken from a collection of vocal out-takes the voices have been cleverly obscured through various production techniques and layered around drums and old school analogue synth lines to unique effect. the results are two haunting, hypnotic, yet upbeat dj tools. the title track, >voices<, uses deftly interwoven vocal samples as the focus and driving hook. shuffled percussion takes a back seat amidst a discordant, attention-grabbing synth interlude that harks back to the playful garage sound of90s chicago house. the outcome is dramatic, intense and functional. on the b-side, >loose ends<, is a more rugged affair that gives the bass and drums centre stage. the vocals are pitched and trippily float in and out of the track whilst the familiar sound of fairlight stabs punctuate the groove. the effect is eerie, yet accessible, and rounds off this stunning ep.
first on decks.de !!! heavy beats with an analog feel and loud drums keep spinning and building around noisy crisp techno athmospheres until furious hi hats unleash the very last drop of energy around. the titel track >12 monkeys< appears in three mixes. the rawdub is maybe the toughest emerson track for many years. he already produced a whole series of rawdub techno remixes that will be released soon and this is somehow the blueprint for his new rawdub techno project. the original track sports industrial fueled beats and soundscapes. cut b1 is a remix by the one and only argentinian stallion juan pablo pfirter. he had his latest outings on labels like figure, clr, stockholm ltd & his very own mind trip music, his latest addition to the infamous clr compilation called miestudio had him supported all across the board. here he delievers an outstanding rework playing around with the beats and parts from the original forming it up to a deeper techno anthem with huge impact on the floor. supported by: oliver ho, slam, technasia, terence fixmer, lucy, mark henning, two em, pig & dan, cio d or, danny howells, daniel sanchez, echologist, ...

the west coast series continues... after the huge hasbeens release its sumerian fleet with a amazing 5 track ep full of big dark wave inspired tracks. the perfect sound track for a movie such as irreversible. scary, haunting and dirty! do we hear some influences of the cure? liaisons dangereuses? adult? front 242? john fox? by far the most inspiring electro release we have heard in a while with its crazy industrial drive and dirty machine funk and robotic synths. btw check out that last track blech erkrankung... that track alone is worth buying this record! big.
japanese based, dry-witted, multi-instrumentalist, max essa, docks his yacht to the good ship bearfunk once more. this time its the title track from his soon-come lp >white shoes blue dreams<. the original morphs things on from his pundit-pleasing beach and summer grooves onto an 80s tilt. the original mix is full of slick grooves and melodic musicality. maxs own >marbella< mix discos things up with a catchy keyboard riff that makes one think of a certain van mccoy, floor-filling stuff. fellow bearfunk sailor, roberto auser, is up for remix duties. his angular dutch grooves strip things back and make things refreshing and cool like he does with just about everything he touches. stay tuned for the second max essa album on bearfunk in the autumn.

planetary assault systems needs no introduction having been at the heart of techno since 93.taken from the first mote-evolver ep, gt is remixed and reworked to bring a classic bang-up-to-date!
new kanada is honored to have the awesome murr (aka nicholas murray) take the reins on the next release. dusty drums, worn-out pads and a deep respect for the early beatsmiths, nick always creates an atmosphere in his tracks that is definitely not the flavor of the month - but rather the taste of the year. on the a-side, >noise in< is a tough dusty jacker, that builds from a tight dub intoa shimmering melodic bomb. feels like early transmat, late gherkin, or an americanized lfo. shuffle, simmer, and slam. the second cut on the a-side, >broken glass<, is a slamming ode to the sp1200. beats swung hard, percussion rattling the kilter way off, and a suffocating groove. watch out - the shards are sharp. on the b-side, marshall reshapes the original >noise in< into a brutal example of a tough mixing tool. heavy, pulsing basslines and an incessant jack groove. this one should move the floor. red, yellow and orange. rockit!

the third and final installment of spectral sounds document 12inch series offers four choice cuts from our era-defining, ryan elliott-curated label comp. kassem mosses remix of lawrences >divided< is a fiendishly tight slow-burner, fitting its ricky-ticky hi-hats and sharp-edged snares together like cogs in a swiss watch. the german producer twists parts around, testing various permutations, and rewards his patient listeners with a dusting of synthesized bliss at the end. heiroglyphic beings rust-flecked >got no place to go< traffics in humid ambience and smoggy gestures, evoking a post-apocalyptic dawn, distant bird calls and all. on the flip, spectral newcomer gadi mizrahis masterful >she only looks at you< hints at krautrock and tech-house while a thoughtful organ hums in the background, and kate simkos buoyant >zhivago< plays ping-pong with a bucket of electronic toms while a crowd-revving synth swell makes itself useful at just the right moment.
we at m=minimal are proud to have >conrad schnitzlers – zug< as first release. schnitzlers zug is one of the most important and first electronic minimalist works that were published in the 70s. almost simultaneously with the kraftwerks groundbreaking >autobahn< zug appeared on the legendary >the red cassette<. the wire magazine wrote about zug: kraftwerk might have used similar methods to create rhythm<!
to share and to increase the love, to let the soul speak through the music, is a feeling which can hardly be described with words. with ôloving , i want to embrace the whole world, because this journey to the origins of electronic dance music in between modern detroit, high tech soul and house is coming from the very bottom of my heart.ö (johannes heil, 2010)

this album ep 12inch vinyl includes two fully danceable tracks from the withcoming album cd firm cd4 plus two very different but both brilliant remixes of >i cant be< from andre kraml and justus koehncke.
few artists can lay claim to such a continuous output as bpc resident joakim ijäs, better known as kiki. for kiki, continuity also means permanently developing his musical vision - his superb second album kaiku is testament to this. the current 12 inch >cinema obscura< follows on seamlessly from us house traditions, yet also reduces them to absurdity with its atmospheric density and sonic extravagance.
get ready for some heavy bass infusion. those who witnessed the infamous audio injection vs. drumcell collaborative 6 hour set at berghain in may could sense the raw and direct path of the uncompromising heavy bass-lines they walk on, yet they possess a subtle sensitivity making this audio experience a physical and mental journey at the same time. with his first ep on electric deluxe, audio injection captured this dark and raw spirit in a perfect way. his tracks move effortlessly from percussive high hat funk to heavy bass-line assault, call it techno coolness. all tracks are dancefloor focused, but contain a healthy dose of weirdness, giving the them longevity while still being functional, spot-on material for the floors typical for electric deluxe releases. the vinyl version of >operation a< is being accompanied by a none other than speedy j himself. the remix has his signature flow, shifting, rich soundscapes layered over a forward bassline sketch. music for minds in dark places.
finally, the live virtuoso olene kadar is back again with release #4 on his homebase mos ferry! not only the really massive kick makes the a-side >deal< a true stomper, that might put a smile on every detroit fans face also a guy called gerald would be thrilled! kadar uses common sounds and styles to stack his own unconventional sound-building - his own >house<. driving is probably the adjective that can express most accurately what constitutes the eight and a half minutes track with its funky organ chords. the b-side >sot:2< contains an equally virtuoso ass-shaker. somewhere between industrial aesthetics of the reverberated snare and the indefinable squawking sound its elements combine into a multi-dimensional piece of >club therapy< full of extremes. the unity of groovy kick and bass constitutes a high contrast to the vast extending percussion that moves at times in dramatic and absurd dimensions. approaching the drop, the almost out of control snare rolls and percussion drown any crowd in their own sweat dripping from the ceiling.
sascha dive has been successful both as a producer, and as a dj. when you talk with him about club music, and in particular house music, you almost get the impression of talking to a human encyclopaedia. his expert knowledge combined with his definition of contemporary club tunes makes his sets a unique experience. he takes the audience on a trip towards the future and the past, and at the end of the night gently back into the here and now again.
tremsch & metlzer aka martin maier & daniel fuchs have created their own style of music which is based on new school techno house.
,,it is hard to find out which kind of music exactly has influenced these artists but similar to piemont they are merely occupied by their own world of music in their heads.
,,,,,we are sure they have never heard of such warp legends as >sweet exorcist still their 3 tracks carry that northern industrial flavour and combine it with funk.
,,>20 toes< as well as >head games< perfectly transport this spirit, whereas -development- feels housier with samples of child vocals and cut up reverse sounds that create an semi-acoustic feeling.
,,support comes through a remix by mbf core member piemont who have remixed >head games< and have created through that a fabulous rough and crazy chicago track, that holds all the experience piemont have gained through playing live.
yes, doubledown is back with another must-have spring sampler. this third installment features some of the best talents out there today, with the red-hot joey youngman burning down the house with his choppy, jazzy funky grooves on on the a-side. flip for two tracky, jacky cuts, one from midas thomas sahs and and the other from lhk and alex moran (lifting some great digital underground samples!)
