sexplosion, the new ep from lenfant terrible of sophisticated techno, seth troxler-here recording under his debauched alter ego sex trothler-is a complex, multifaceted, and yet decidedly horny affair. these are the sounds of doing unspeakable and anonymous things to girls in dark backrooms and being too confident to regret it the next day…the sounds of your favorite sexual memory transformed by your overactive fantasy life into scenes of utter perversion. the first track, jusyour, combines troxlers signature use of the classic, organic sounds of detroit house and techno with an avant-garde, fragmented, almost mournful sensibility. its a contemporary jack track as appropriate for a dark, seedy club as it is for an afterparty orgy on your friends broken futon. its almost as if music could yearn and sweat and think all at once. its followed by a brief vocal internude to remind you that being a good lover always means having enough of a sense of humor to laugh at other people laughing at yourself. think tinkertoys meets the wu-tang clans black shampoo. humor aside, the final track, face, utilizes airy percussion and deep, almost cinematic chords (reminiscent of troxlers remix for another precious youth, nicolaas jar on new yorks wolf+lamb label). its masterful and restrained use of processed vocals manages to leave behind so much of the pointless darkness that has plagued techno, whether minimal or otherwise. it builds slowly yet aggressively, like a hard, focused grind with someone you cant actually even really stand. this is music for people whose time at art school was spent getting naked and not hating themselves for it.

motor citys new electronica talent joshua harrison presents with his strong debut release on psycho thrill recordings, four hot burnin as floor efficient slammin minimal tracks from detroit technos new school. this vinyl hits real house feet as well as techno heads and defines more like another tech-house biggie. ears, minds and hearts are opening for a fall of real electronic music

clear yellow vinyl! >ammo dump< once again from the dread camp serum comes with another dance floor smasher. with a subtle build-up and complementary vocal sample, this track explodes into a mighty bassline. serum manages to work his magic with a simple roller, but trust me, this is to hurt those bassbins. inspired and taken from the dub dread iii compilation of various artists, this is a lovely slice of dread cake for you to taste and savour

this three track ep starts with the title track >walking alone<. showcasing mike’s attention to the deepest details, this track begins with warm, fuzzy chord sequences onto which a multi-layered framework of tones and textures are laid. crisp beats mesh with hypnotic bass pulsations, inviting the listener to lose himself in the sound. proper deepness here - for those who seek the essential elements and nothing more, rhythm, melody, bass line, emotion.. expertly produced, >passing tunnels< goes further below the surface as icy chords meet electrified analog stabs, enveloped in cavernous reverbs and shimmering delays. this is a dark, simmering groove for those who know the rare and precious value of a deep, unpretentious tune that can move you from the inside out. take time and listen - there’s no denying the vibrations here. and finally, rounding off the ep is label boss patrice scott’s rework of >walking alone<. properly titled the >atmospheric remix<, p. scott takes the track to another level. while keeping the basic elements of the original, p. scott adds spacey, vibrant melodies to extenuate his version taking you on a journey to a distant planet while on the dance floor.

the clubby summer season of 2008 is just about to explode and the creme of electronic dance music is all but departed to their summer positions. while already packing their suitcases, jesus loved you crew still found time to release yet another in their grand series of records. the occasion was right and so was the choice: what better way to start the rockiest time of the year then to make public this exquisite collection, put together by one of the ibizas finest! guys like wally lopez hardly need to be introduced: playing with the most excellent and producing for the best position, wally lopez is widely considered to be one of spains leading deejays and producers. although he is working in london most of the time, mediterranean temper still runs through his veins always making his music sound positive and cheerful. in wideband wally lopez gives way to his love for bouncy rhythms and dramatic bridges taking us on a journey through his ever-changing soundscape. with a fine touch for the more relaxed ambience of summer partying, he keeps his base line low and gives way for his exciting melodies to develop freely

another two slices of great leftfield dance music. on the a-side weve got an edit of a very hard to find cosmic classic, recut and refreshened for your listening pleasure! over on side b theres another winner, holger czukay on synths. essential.

after some very well received releases for the likes of renaissance and kickboxer records, stephan hinz, who has also turned out some hot tracks alongside martin eyerer, presents >bacala<. its a cheekily warped excursion into hinz‘s deep and melancholic dancefloor world, spurred on by a great theme melody, as if you found yourself in the middle of a medieval rave after a long and victorious battle! tight, familiar percussion works the groove, building towards a dramatic break which introduces more layers of synthesised wonder! check this in the main room for maximum effect. audiomatique key player adultnappers remix comes on strong, with a tougher drive and a slightly more freaked out vibe. trademark hissing percussion works over a finely tuned minimal groove, eventually allowing that haunting melody to show its colours. designed for the more freaky floors, yet still focused on melody and progression, its another great example of adultnappers remixing skills

ltd backstock!! big support from oliver huntemann, stephan bodzin, martin landsky, someone else, brian fair, martin eyerer, adam kroll, solee, p.toile, markus kavka. ostwind ltd bietet einmal mehr diese erfrischende mischung aus housigen & dubbigen zutaten ohne auch nur einen gedanken daran daran zu verschwenden den druck aus der musik zu nehmen. typisch ostwind

another fabulous set of remixes taken from the sunburst band album this time from deep house god milton jacksons stunning mix & ig culture alongside mr. negros own extended mixes

the label boss returns to his own yore imprint with another stunning solo release. these are different times indeed for andy vaz if the eps three mighty jams are indicative of where his musics heading. the a-sides over here (a glance over prime time mix) roars from the very first moment vaz unleashes its steaming, latin-tinged groove. a far cry from the techno the yore label head once issued, the tune finds vaz exploring straight up dancefloor territory with a dizzying house pulse that straight up rocks. melodies and voices rise to the surface of the dionysian broil and then just as quickly recede, leaving room for a driving bass line to gain the spotlight. the flips hurry hurry (before its too late mix) is classic deep house just as one expects on yore. a jazz-inflected strut with tilman ehrhorns sax playing, wailing over waves of rollicking piano playing and spirited vocal chants. the energy level doesnt flag for the discs final track, bygone times (nostalgia mix), which stokes a fiery house swing with its locomotive pulse, futuristic synth patterning, and high-velocity bass lines. vazs music has never sounded more impassioned and energized than it does in these three tracks and consequently, just as one might predict, different times feels like its over far too soon

inflicted welcomes another hot newomer on the label, jan fleck! turn red is sven wittekind most fav. track at the moment! this track comes with a real heavy beat and some church bells before the breakdown is rolling over the floor with his sweepy piano melody, which is changing into a nasty synth after some seconds. when the beat is coming in again, there is no holding back for everyone! >i don t care< is a freaky fresh hardtechno track, with a good arrangement and nice vocalcuts! the breakdown in this track is pushin the dancefloor to the peaktime limit! >my descent< a nice compressed loop combined with a heavy baseline synth. making his way in the minds of the bassline lovin technoheads! >epic< is another huge track on this release! a great hardtechno loop makes his way to one of the best breaks ever. sweepy stabs bring you an evil baseline combined with a amazing dnb/breakbeat loop before the well done hardtechnoloop strikes back!

this japanese technopioneer has done some masterpieces last year on well respected labels such as audio assault and zwart. now its time to hit back with a stunning and pounding ep on the new label dynamic reflection. this kid is the headchef of mindcrushing synths, steady pounding beats and crispy percussionloops as the first track so clearly shows. the guys from radial put out an awesome remix on the a2! their rework leads you into the dark paths of techno, a true dancefloor killer! before checking the flipside you better insert your earplugs, cause here mr. hiyama comes up with an narly mind blowing stomper. he shows us how stuff like this is meant to be done and has no mercy on those eardrums. secondly there is another remix from the spanish wonderboy reeko, who takes you into the deep and dark dungeons of his spanish artgallery. with his heavy basslines and his extraordinary uplifting percussion loops he pushes himself to another level with this one! all n all a superior first release on this new and pure techno label, which perfectly reflects the current techno movement and promises loads more of that sweet stuff in days to come

rough, rougher, roughest!! another wicked addition to the fattalic series. fatallic resignation is about the harder side of techno, brought by artists that live the music. various styles from various artists, the thing they have in common: its hard, hard and hard!! check this out

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

once again, tuningspork records ventures away from its trademark funky house in exchange for something a little more unexpected. last summer, the label issued >free your mind< (tsextra), a baleraric groove crafted by jay haze and ricardo villalobos. now comes another non-sequitur: >comptine d un autre été: l après-midi< (tsultra), mr. tiersens piano composition reconstructed for the dancefloor by jay. french composer yann tiersen has a minimalist approach that many electronic producers could learn from. his piece (the title of which roughly means >nursery rhyme of another summer: the afternoon<) provides the basis for this melancholy track. djs addicted to hyperbolic effects plugins might hesitate to play this - but those who appreciate subtlety will be rewarded here. tiersens original composition is tastefully manipulated into a track that makes sense in a club context, yet sets itself apart from the usual techno/house fare, providing a rare introspective moment on the dancefloor. and it might be worth mentioning: if you play this track and the floor doesnt fill up with ladies, then it probably means youre djing at a gay club. (not that theres anything wrong with that!)

a sizzling smoked-out trip down dub house lane. the a-side cut rastafaried sees the hippster heading into stupendous/worship territory, blazing a deep dubby floor workout with ace keyboardist greg sankovich laying down the lush pads. flip for butta which is just that, a smooth deep cut with some dope female vocals. loops closes thngs out with some rugged bonus beats thatll appeal to the old school h-foundation heads. another strong solo release from hipp-e!

another limited repressing of overdrive classics, this time genuine draft - chest busters and tracid posse - power of darkness... this is real oldschool techno!!

kindisch is now eighteen releases old, and its mission - to uncover new talent, and to provide a platform for producers to evolve and experiment - is more passionate than ever. this time, the reins are handed to sascha braemer, aka hirtenfellner, and philip bader, who build on the promise of their releases on sup dub and get physical. >mamba drums< is, as its name suggests, a percussive, latin-tinged affair, with sweeping builds and heavy drops, layer upon layer of locomotive percussion and a skeletal four-note vamp designed to whip the listener into a state of frenzy (and sure to be successful in this aim!). a male vocal sample pervades on >thrill<, this time more gruff, more laconic, and edited so that the words become another percussive element rather than carriers of meaning. deep whirlpools of delay open up below a surface drift of jazz-tinged chords, from a minimalist sound palette bader and braemer paint a vastly evocative, effusive picture that will transport the listener, or dancefloor, to a strange and addictive place. >put your arms around me<, implores the soul-infused vocal sample on b >around<, over a yawning vista of synth chords bridged with sibiliant snares and subtle but earth-moving edits that leave no doubt as to braemer and baders mastery of dancefloor dynamics.

another ep on einmaleins by our beloved miskate ! a great 3 track come back. bric a brac comes with weird and trippy sounds with hypnotic voices building and then gets funky funky elements and great groove! whats the point is more tight techno with dark elements that make u think u r in out of space, definatly an after hour track to twist minds! the lazy mouth remix is on the flipside, more stripped down techno, repetitive with crazy synth! one more release ready for the dancefloor!

nice price deal !!! another great track released on the hit label link. 2 different versions by raf marchesini, and by nicola fasoli aka powered milk & karim razak!

brill french techno remixes from this big club monster remix by dima (vitalic), youngsters plus legendary original version… limited & last repress!!

>temptation< four tracks debut ep on dancefloor killers for this >mysterious< french artist. who s the >temptation<? a mixture of oldschool rave, electro... everything you need to hit more fans on the dancefloor!

like a dream, but authoritatively, this remix from jamaica magnificently crosses the afrobeat of fela kuti with the grounation reggae tradition of count ossie. the flip, uhuru pujama is a new recording, another warrior charge down wareika hill by this veteran of light of saba and the mystic revelation of rastafari.

catchy melodic breaks with a cool vocal hook on the a side!! flip for another monster with cool male raps

another hard techno anthem in the p-series is about to hit the streets !!

the first release on new glasgow label seinan music will be from rising star sei a. this boys stock has been rising fast with releases on french house stables such as missive, silver network and imprime {he may or may not also be responsible for a certain awesome re-edit of an oxford band containing word radio}... fans of his work include miss kitten, laurent garnier, ben watt and a host of many others. meth is another slice of his trademark techy but melodic sound. with haunting vocals and a solid hook, this is due to rock floors from glasgow to guatemala, tech style. on the flip, man of the moment milton jackson takes things a little deeper and darker with a solid mix that will appeal to fans of his work on labels such as freerange, winding road and tsuba. with a musical agenda that sticks to its guns but is not afraid to take a chance is the frame of mind going forward for seinan music. the label has some exiting plans for the future including remixes from another fcomm stalwart, llorca and more releases from sei a.

with frankly amazing singles on his own glimpse recordings and matt tolfreys leftroom earlier this year, 2007 is shaping up to be one hell of a year fro christopher spero aka house/techno prodigy glimpse. here, he delivers his debut for the uk-based bastion of quality that is four:twenty with a superb collaboration with critically acclaimed taka boom (sister of chaka khan) in the form of we existed. another great uk talent, tom demac is first to remix we existed and does so in fine style. its plain to see why so many labels of note are requesting releases from tom on first listen to his skilful, deep and dubby excursion into detroit inspired house. jay shepheard, not to be outdone, turns in two remixes for the package. his alternative remix is up first and is a driving affair with a percussive punch and nagging fm chords providing the perfect base for takas vocals and some well placed keys. the main rmx from compost man shepheard carries on the mantle of quality with a decidedly more electronic and epic feel: a shrinking violet this is not
