>the cockpit< is my personal favourite song of the chelonis album and it has taken my sleepless night (and days) to watch out for the right remixers. now that all new versions are ready, i m more than happy because all three fellows have felt the real vibe of the original song. a spezial thanx to ekkohaus who delivered two different mixes and spent a lot of energy and passion into these productions. and also merci to steve rachmad and paul woolford, guys who stand rather for techno, however improved their soul into creating passionated tech house! chapeau!

aux-rec is being launched by airdrop records as an offshoot label designed with a specific mission in mind: to look back and pay tribute. aux-rec surveys musical history looking for those inspiring pieces of music (famous or forgotten) that carry a very distinctive groove and identity, and that offer the potential to be revisited in an ingenious contemporary way. at airdrop, we love music of all ages and of many genres! we feel aux-rec is a way for our artists and for us to pay our due respects to the origins and the evolution of contemporary dance music.
the existing airdrop roster of artists will be invited to contribute to aux-rec, but different artists will also be uncovered specifically for this project. off to a fresh start, franco cinelli and club rayo (a duo composed by rafael sorol and pablo terreil) engrave their long-time friendship on this record. franco cinellis first productions were released on the duos imprint club rayo disquets at the beginning of the millenium. the club rayo collective has been extremely active in the local argentinean scene for more than twelve years now.
going back to one of music historys greatest classics, >fever<, franco cinelli and club rayo bring their own interpretations to a theme that has known as many versions than people taking a sing at it in the shower! using ella fitzgeralds and elvis presleys voices, club rayo create repsectively the fitzgerald mix - a rocking dancefloor jam looping ellas fantastic voice bringing it to a culmination - and the king dub - a 118 bpm groove punctuated by elvis low-pitched and resonant tone. cuerdas is a short guitar instrumantal rendition of the fever theme. on his remix, franco cinelli creates a 10 minutes drum symphony, especially designed for the post-climatic hours. both producers kept in mind ellas famous quote when undertaking this great enterprise: >i stole everything i ever heard, but mostly i stole from the horns.<
the following releases on aux-rec will also be in the form of bootlegs, edits, re-works or samples (you name it). they will bring back memories to your heads and mostly the groove to your feet. to be true to its mission of a vintage exploration, aux-rec will be releasing exclusively on vinyl, in the tradition of the essential music format of the 20th century. there will be no digital releases at aux-rec. in the pipeline are soul claps edit of laid backs >bakerman< as well as le loups version of sheila es >a love bizarre<, produced by prince.
also played and supported by agnes, butane, ripperton...

their debut ep comes on alphahouse records, and is turning heads as a late-night monster. need a mental picture? imagine classic g-man, strobe lights, smoke machines, and a cavernous berghain style freak show. the duo slyly manage to push the tracks in many directions, looking back to a time before ableton-warped bootlegs and cheap production techniques, all the while maintaining a standard that feels fresh and experimental. some of us are searching for more. with this record, we approach closer to that groove than ever.

nice price deal !!! excellent follow up to kondens 002! warm and tight pumpin beats styled up with noisy soundscapes and vocal snippets are the script of cocoon artist electric rescue...

for more than 15 years now, steve bug is known for influential track somewhere in between house, techno and minimalism. with his very good sense for the energy of self-limitation, bug has set standards when it comes to the funk of modern sound geometry, especially with his imprint poker flat recordings. milestones such as >loverboy<, >monsterbaze< or >wet n dry< are now essential elements of the history of electronic dance music. only a few weeks after the release of his fourth album collaboratory, bug even tops that one with this 12 inch on cocoon: while look whos stalking obviously refers to steves close relation to the raw energy of u.s. house in between chicago trax and detroit, using driving hand claps, percussions and nasty vocals, the flipside zero balance could pass as a vision of how far you can reduce techhouse to the essence of a bass line. also here, short vocal loops - besides the fast-moving elements - complete a sensibility that makes bugs tracks such high quality music for a very long time now.

smith & mudd follow their second album, le suivant with something that goes a bit darker. side a is a chuggy affair where the beats drive a bit harder than their usual tracks but the lushness and the bass groove are still there. a beautiful electric violin solo takes the second half to a different place. side b is a deep bass journey that sounds like jean luc ponty and terry callier combined with a but of led zep. fantastic stuff. check

ltd repress !!! 3 stretched out and beefed-up edits of tracks that originally appeared as skits on the brilliant rockwell records label...tried and tested on the dancefloors of amsterdam - these are sure fire head rockers/ankle flexers!! >kutparra< is a contagious banger that makes you want to jump, like kriss kross used to do. >kutwell< comes as a catchy discofied house tune that reminds us of some detroit productions some years back.. this stays from though! >nosestep< finishes off in true aardvarck style.. a stripped down track with a bassline to kill for… bare essentials

nice price deal !!! the fourth rwina sees the light of yet another taz buckfaster 12inch thats going down in a true epic vein, one for the anthem horny jocks. so if you are into the grimy synth heavy side of things then better check this one out.

hailing originally from japan but now operating out of ontario, canada, this is ms onos debut release, and she certainly proves her credentials on this clean, sharp but funky fusion of dubstep techno and electro. kuro shinju is abstract and oblique but crisply funky, whilst the flipside moon is not unlike the japanese art of ikebana where the spaces in between are just as important as what fills them. precision cut clarity.

mr. bizz is a family affair. the two sardinian brothers are doing their thing and loco dice, karotte, hawtin like it. lets see what comes next from this brotherhood

once again, lump sticks to his guns and brings you strangely funky tunes to make this world a better place . it s too late. the world has gone sombre and our man walks the desolate streets. the femme fatale is there, right under the street lights. the gansgster are all around. bobby has been shot and all the junkies are surrounding the dealer in the back alley. this is no house as you know it. this is harcore funk. it s noir, it s dirty, it s dangerous and risqué. run. the cops are coming...

restoration records highly awaited eighth release is the most powerful sonic weapon to face up this hard times. captain power and the soldiers of the future will lead the riot of the machines in order to restore the analogue kingdom. humans and machines, blood and fire, souls and transistors are operating together to fight the conformism and the loss of values imposed by the mass communication of this post-industrial era.
third side is the new operative group of restoration, formed by marieu, lucretio and by resident dj of panorama bar steffi (klakson/ostgut ton). >ready to dance< is a dancefloor disco-bomb, funky and sexy but minimalistic at the same time. very essential in its build-up, its bass line is addicting and relentless and its bass drum is powerful. we are ready to dance, its time to jack!
analogue cops >chamber< is a strong dark track in which a massive 808 drum explosion runs together with an ultra-pitched down voice sample. rushing percussions, piercy hi-hats, a breathless progression. an experiment which turns into a solid club tack.
on side b, >still me< represents lucretios vocation to neoclassicism. the time disappears and a gospel organ full of motown reminiscences reminds the most soulful works appeared on planet earth. dramatic and sweet, its evocative and hopeful. lucretios track on rst006 appears on tama sumos >panorama bar – mix cd<.
>mauzy< is marieus deepest track on restoration. beat-down smashing 909 drums, punchy snares, delightful piano chords, sharp cymbals, a praising voice. a track for a spiritual elevation, a track to dance until the last second. a track to listen to a million of times.

supported by dj pippi, dario d attis, roed svensk, andy compton, mike fresco, umberto gianni & more soon… here it is !!! we have the pleasure to anounce the full release of kentphoniks new track uthando. after the massive success of hiya kaya and sunday showers last year, the south african band is back with another hot deep and melodic track. uthando means love in swayly, and kentphonik are delivering only but true love to music lovers here !! on the remix duty is featuring australias very own dj jorj, who after releasing his soulful hit back 2 me with us and some hot tracks on papa, farplane and she records, is bringing 2 big room club versions to please a different crowd than the original. also available here is the beautiful yet effective remix of sunday showers by nycs finest producer carlos mena aka casamena, that will be sure to please the heads !!!! check out this great package, theres something for (almost) everyone !!

voorn & oosterwals green imprint is probably best known for its modern classics >blank< and >mpx309<. now they return with the labelÆs sixth release: dosems beach kisses. powerful synths are the order of the day on this euphoric masterpiece. with voorn being such a huge fan of the track, it made sense for him to pick it up for green. so today, we bring beach kisses the joris voorn edit. powerful synths are the order of the day on this euphoric masterpiece. on the flip, marc dosem has provided us with his own new edit under his sendo guise. an atmospheric delight.

nice price deal !!! the latest new comers from barcelona are sw eden born pow erduo of marco gegenheimer and jens rosengren aka gegenheimer & jenius. both of them are active in the spanish house scene and have been creating a havoc w ith their record label collective ourvision w hich released the excellent archimboldo from fellow sw ede axel boman. the tracks they offered to moodmusic have a simple message of floor dominance w ith musical values and they?ve proven to w ork fairly w ell on recent moodmusic nights at panorama bar and sonar. starting w ith basic shape, a tech-housey, almost early techno feel takes over w ith phasing keys and dry drumprogramming w ith a big break w ith lends a few notes from detroit city. cadaquÚs has a more house feel to it, still keeps the groove as main point w ith stabbing keys and a beautiful theme taking you on a trip to almost mr fingers territory. the closing track ips has been a sureshot favourite at the moodmusic hq since w e got it, a classic deep house track of pure quality w hich show s the musical roots of these talented producers. watch out

hot city is dropping some severely skewed house music, twisting it up with his own blend of jackin chicago house, 2step/ukg, and bass bumpers. with only two tracks sent out to a handful of the finest djs around in the past few months, he s secured two gigs playing out at wifey, certainly the most fun club in london at the moment, and managed to generate a fair amount of hype already:
- smash, this is a mega rave hit bro, nice one! - drop the lime (t&b / nyc)
- very nice, thanks for this, will def play it - hudson mowhawke (warp / glasgow)
- i really like both these tracks, kinda minimal garage, very cool - hannah holland (batty bass / london)
the tracks on this new 12 inch build on the momenetum, with two tracks of stripped down dancefloor killers - >yeah!< is a monster builder, all todd edwards style swing and tight edits with crazy deep kicks, chopped up vocals, old school piano stabs, soaring strings, and hands in the air breakdowns. already being played out by drop the lime (check his latest exclusive mix for fact magazine where he opens his set with >yeah!<). >head work< on the b side is on more of a masters at work/harddrive era tip - deep garage beats tripping over themselves, burbling oddity synths, shuffling snares and the weirdest vocal melody breakdown/build-up ever!
the originals are complimented on the 12 inch by two remixes - tvo takes yeah! to another dimension altogther with a head destroying 140bpm hardcore junglist remix. on the flip, san franciscos eats tapes take >head work< into the wonkiest area of minimalist techno, showcasing their totally unique take on future groove.
the ep has been mastered by the irrefutable shawn hatfield/twerks special touch, bringing out the strengths of each track and tweaked for that perfect crisp warm vinyl pressing.

it s good to see there are some folk still out there making proper electro. fans of classic drexciya will love the uhu tracks, if you have heard his earlier releases on gigolo then you will know just how good this guy us.
on the flip is juan pablo whose cinematic style of electro sounds like john carpenter mixed with early viewlexx and nature releases. this gets a big thumbs up from us so don t sleep on it.

heiko laux and berlin based jazz musician teo schulte are offshore funk and this is their first release, made in 2003 for kanzleramt.

the travel reports of the wilderness ep part 1 & 2 follows a documentation of a time when the cheapers were together in a dark vault and they were only attending the on going outer world through a >white hole<. in chapter a1 they report about the mondane mess that interfuses through the small opening into their facultative dungeon. they aim towards their profile and fill their surface with melody and intoxication. b1 describes basseruptions in front of the white house and while buzzing, pouring oil onto the strings of their piano, to proove the efficiency of renewable soundenergies. their mission was succesfully kept a secret until rising winds released the manuskript blowing them out of the darkness to the cd of the current groove-magazine. finally all parts are official and available on upon you records.

actually after his debut album reflections this young man could take some time and relax, continue touring over the world or put his feet up during the week. but for mister stimming this is impossible. he just loves producing music much to much. we have nothing to say about this and are very happy to present you three fantastic new tracks. funk with me!

supported by timo maas, dave seaman, dubfire, hot chip, dj hell, piemont, chloe, dan curtin!! new design, new ideas, bukaddor & fishbeck took a break from producing while playing a lot of live gigs and are back now, better than ever.

london based masters of the groove berkson & what are back on pokerflat with another sublime excursion into deep flowing hypnotic and modern house music. the pairs infamous live show has taken them far and wide, delivering their detailed and unparalleled electronics from berlin to miami and back... now their story continues with the >ghosts ep<. the extended, jacking trip that is >ghosts< is a strong grooving reduced house track in the purest sense of the phrase. tough, tight chicago style beats flare and snap as a melancholic and mysterious synth motif dances around the funk-meets-dub bass sequence. all manner of ethereal spoken word passages, uplifting vocal meanderings and cuts are then intertwined in a complex ambiguous narrative that fills the room with the ghosts of house and soul music gone by... understated, uncompromising and super functional! next up the boys lay down a tribal house groover, full of thick keys, richly embellished drums and spiritual vibes a-plenty. no doubt first jammed out during one of their long studio sessions, the live feel and flowing arrangement opens up beautifully with soft key flourishes and tender vocal hooks.

>obviously las meninas< is the name of a new series of dancefloor/dj tools dedicated tracks to be release on terpsichore. jefferson velazquez opens this series with 4 pieces of grooviness.

in the handful of seasons separating then from now mikael has been developing his signature sound with a decidedly languid detour through the ins and outs of romance.

for the 5th installment of adultnappers illustrious ransom note, we welcome into the fray paul kominek, otherwise known as pawel (dial/orphan ear) with two sublimely beautiful compositions of modern electronic music. there is not many words to describe the feeling of these pieces. they run deep into the soul of house and techno. moving, yet intelligent, pawels plaintive take on dance music is unique in sound, but profoundly universal in feeling, connecting to emotions that seem rare these days on the dance floor. with powerful peak time remixes by new yorks alexi delano and brendon moeller, ransom note part five should make some noise in the coming months. from the desk of adultnapper, as inspired by lines and curves… as you well know, parallel paths are foreordained entities of diversity. as they travel further away from their origins, the more attraction tends to set in, not as a spiritual mechanism, but, rather, as a physical replication or limitless mimicry. one trajectory makes reference to the other, leading to a barrier, a zero crossing, some sort of cessation of thought. lines become curves and act as waking agents for the soul as it approaches its limit. sometimes this process is disrupted, as is the case this time. i have lost something on the way and i seem to be stuck in the place where i lost it. i feel anchored here and need to find a way to move again. there is not much time.

the debut situation release has been one of our best selling 12s of the year, thankfully the boys are back with yet another massive release. having taken the edits scene by storm with their amazing debut release on disco deviance and the launch of their own imprint with an equally strong set of cuts, the situation crew have now established themselves as favourites of some of the worlds leading disco djs like greg wilson, ashley beedle, optimo, horse meat disco, the revenge and pete herbert amongst others. on this release the seriously percussive disco vibes of late in the love break fuses the sounds of paul simon with some salsoul flavours to produce a truly inspired musical blend. heavily influenced by the sound and attitude of greg wilson, its a perfect track for any disco or balearic dj set. flip the record over and the party really starts to lift off as goblin gets mashed up with the b52s and reworked into a wicked, percussion driven slice of disco funk. absolute dance floor madness situation style

10 inch vinyl ... we are delighted to have producer martin buttrich, making a warm deep bassy layered groove remake of no boundaries and innersphere (the half of shinedoe), drops a hypnotic subtle chicago dancefloor groover, that brings you to a different level with bounce to this.

support by marco carola, troy pierce, paco osuna, ambivalent ...
alexi delano, with his second solo contribution to clink, the chilean-swedish-american eloquently brings back what keeps us addicted to minimal: simple, groovy percussive concepts layered under eerie, sexy melodies. gracing this ep are two ravishing, high profile remixes from paco osuna minus, plus 8 and pär grindvik drumcode, spectral. enjoy!

this classic and legendary track from 79 belongs to the very origins of techno. it has been sampled by djs but was >impossible to find on vinyl<, now this finally changed! the track is back on vinyl and even includes some new remixes. danton eeproms remix a real club monster, and terence fixmer remix with an unexpected groovy mood sound, changing suddenly into a dark deep track. crash course in science have also reworked this year their own original mix and now deliver us a new version, that prove us that they are not out of date, but still remain the real brain of sounds, that for many artists has been the core influence of techno.

cool elegancy and machines meet live elements, soul and warm loops. subtle deep piecees of house music! hard to believe what jena has to offer: after splashy shooting stars like the wighnomys and their freude am tanzen family, a new act from this small metropolis for artists is coming up on vinyl now. while the team around klinke auf cinch is releasing its upbeat on playtracks the debut track shows the variety and creativity being in the deeply touching musicians heads. invited to the vocal corner was among others the soul voice of ian simmonds, who has already scratched his monument into black gold on musik krause. klinke auf cinch perform in stereopanorama with tenderly sent melody pearls and create marble paths with groove fragments. a live playing trumpeter, the voices of ian simmonds and paula as well as the gifted rhythm and harmony section around clemens kynast and lutz hartmann are the counterconcept to brute force. jack to cinch makes live electronica a valuable and touching concert event, the musicians virtuosity meets the cool elegance of the machines. loop means soul, beat means heart beat.

this is the second album by sven schienhammer aka quantec on echocord. after releasing several 12 inch on labels like styrax leaves, meanwhile, snapshot and echocord sven is back with another fulllenght album. this album contains older tracks from the year 2001 and some of his newer works from 2009. on this album you will hear many of svens personal favourite tracks and echocord are really proud to release it. its not really the typical quantec sound, its absolutely different to his last album on echocord, some of the tracks with vocals, but you can still hear the quality quantec sound.
