nice price deal !!! school of zuversicht is a band collective around front lady dj patex. extensive live shows, a living room called golden pudel club in hamburg, and countless side projects by patex and her musicians sum up to an impressive peer group. 10 famous friends have now expressed their affection to school of zuversicht with their contributions to this remix collection. we are proud to introduce sounds by die boys (deichkind), station 17, festland (zickzack) and paulo olarte (liebe detail), as well as our pingipung heroes wols and mister tingle. special: we will release two selected killer tracks (die boys and festland) as limited 7inch vinyl single, including the download code for the whole album! once sold out the digital download will still be available.

nice price deal !!! we were very surprised as we got unexpected mail from outsider stanley anscorm, who seems to be departed years ago. although it wasn t possible to recognize the origin of the mail, we are pretty sure he still lives on earth. but who knows? it isn t beyond believe that he s find a way to leave this rotten planet and is waiting for his eternal rest somewhere out there. the only thing we can be sure about is the timeless quality of the futuristic and precise music he sends electronically. battle beyond the sun narrates about the human struggle for life in an somehow sinister and - how can i say it? - parallel universe. mr.anscorm s music still strikes the balance between the grim aspects of life and the promise of hope we can discover in the wonders of existence and the methods of survival. although the battle beyond the sun ep is sometimes frightening, a white light of hope always shines through the darkness

proud to annoucne that audiojack are joining our label! this is a complete summer tune with 2 massive remixes by our favorites joeski and kevin yost!

coordinated ep presents two tracks relating to two different spots, so two different atmospheres. whereas 51°54 01.6-n 4°28-05.0-e corresponds with the maastunel in rotterdam that connects the banks of the nieuwe maas, 51°54 33.0-n 4°29-13.7-e matches the erasmusbrug (erasmus bridge), a combinedcable-stayed and bascule bridge in the center of rotterdam connecting the north and the south parts of the city. whereas the a-side presents a techno and trippy side, the b-side reveals a more atmospheric and percussive one. in summary, both tracks are quite linear, a linearity that hypnotises and sucks the listener up till bringing him in a trance that makes him feeling in another dimension.

soothsayers are back with a double a side featuring two massive tunes from their forthcoming album. originally released on the strut records album collaboration with cornel campbell, soothsayers have reworked their tune nothing can stop us upping the tempo and showcasing the vocal recipe of singers idris rahman , robin hopcraft and julia biel take me high is a heavy, dark and spacious head-nodder. sublime tripped out vocals by soothsayers as cornel campbell floats high in the atmosphere above accompanied by earth-shaking trombone and analogue bleeps in a sumptuous dubbed up mix. warm analogue sound recorded at fishmarket studios, mixed by daniel boyle at rolling lion studios. soothsayers releases are always championed by dj david rodigan (bbc 1xtra), as well as gilles peterson (bbc6) and many others.

the allergies are back with another slice of 45 action. love s supposed to be takes you back to the glory days of northern soul, with an upbeat rhythm section driving the track, and a sing-along vocal that cuts through perfectly. on the flip is the crowd pleasing title track taken from their album, as we do our thing . brandishing punchy horns, motown-esque drums and unapologetic samples, this track is the embodiment of what they re all about.this is without a doubt a must have piece of wax that would be at home in anyone s 45 collection. as we do our thing was album of the day on bbc 6 music and hit top 3 in the itunes chart and 1 on juno download. the first single rock rock featuring andy cooper of ugly duckling fame was tune of the month in mixmag and was accompanied by a killer video that was featured on channel 4 sunday brunch

in the short time since his debut, chairman kato has developed his own sound, as unique and offbeat as his personal reputation. launching his live show in 2011, as well as his own art exhibitions, chairman kato has staked his territory as one of the most keenly watched producers in london, now stepping on to the international stage at the top of the underground. its with great excitement then that we share this release on awkward movements. science & romance consists of four original tracks, influenced from all aspects of chairman katos life, as immediately heavy as they are emotionally layered.

vinyl 7- edition of 150 housed in uv printed sleeve. the album is the result of a double consideration travelling on a parallel path. on one hand the sensation evoked by dissonant organic sounds merged into patterns and chaotic structures,on the other hand its connection with the exploration of the concept of propaganda, with its adaptive and unstable nature, its relationship with the concept of privacy and its application in everyday life in the digital era. the two tracks, non sono un criminale and non ho niente da nascondere, are composed by a loop structure in order to emphasise the sensation of anxiety and confusion, the melodic changes are introduced by the use of pronounced reverberations, especially in non sono un criminale

oisel presents dimensione astrale, a release that gives an important definition to his musical identity. the spatial sounds are the main feature of the tracks, in fact the artist tried to create an ambient similar to an abstracted dimension, in which the mind can get lost. the final result is a repetitive mental flow of some distant galaxy traped in wax.

nice price deal !!! for the first time chicago artists traxx & josh werner come together as jm strap and they are responsible for the a side of this record. we proudly present >the owl in daylight<, an amazing track that brings back the chicago jakbeat sound with an incredible bassline that seems alive, weaving all around the song to take it to the next level with a simple but intriguing dark pad and brilliant solid drums. on the flip we have >play error< by juanpablo. this madrid based artist is responsible for the frigio label and his track composed on the phrygian scale. the result is a dark and rythmic tune with a sweet melody and background voices. like the other tunes on this record >mute city< by lektoluxe remains at the underground level with galactic melodic synths and a fat deep bass that switches to acid tones at points.

ghanaian afro funk and boogie from sidiku buari is the focus of the next soundway 12”. the two tracks are taken from an obscure 12” release from 1983 that unfortunately had a pressing defect on “anokwar”, so with some twiddling and editing hide & smile have restored it ready for some overdue dance-floor use once again.

black venison returns with their debut artist vrrs for the 5th release in the catalogue. the a side opens up with brique a crunching techno roller with a rave vocal straight out of the early 90s. hungarian producer s.olbricht turns in a jungle inspired remix of brique , chopped break and vocals are the order of the day. on the flip side we vrrs explores more housey territory first with innerside, a pitched swinger and second with gonnaarp a bouncy lo-fi take of a classic house aesthetic.

mount liberation unlimited is formed of sunbeams, sockerbitar, and swedes ! chance members of a stockholm-based band during their late teens, tom lagerman and niklas janzon found themselves peeling off from the pack to smoke and make techno. dreaming of a global dance music community in which artists are allowed anonymity, the two set out to service this secret society by soundtracking happy-making moments under the mount liberation unlimited guise. mlu s third release, (eerie) for your love, developed organically and inversely from their live set into the studio. in this procedural fluidity, hypnotic live takes animate as tenacious tone, melody, and groove. mlu s method relies upon thee jam, the feeling shared in the moment, and then revisiting that friendzied magic. this dedication to spontaneity is tempered by a naive faith in one another, an unspoken jibber jabber that melds two minds together in childlike harmony.

heading up the release is newcomer bogdan drazic, crunched up horn and elephant blaring freak-house and ebm, perfect for zombie clearance raids. in the amazon. at night. the gates of hell are open and i couldn t possibly describe what s climbing out. last but by no means least is the valencian hero daniel kyo, perhaps the true heir to the throne of the real sonido de valencia, spaced out and cosmic with layers of emotion and sinister atmospherics. they sleep, we live.

andreas gehm is known for his fierce, unapologetic acid style. but the cologne man does have a more mellow side, a smoother side, and that s what this three tracker is. of course, smooth gehm still has some rough edges. -yellow flowers- combines thick pads, skittering beats, warming samples and frigid bars in an intoxicating brew. malice and menace rear their ashen faces for the evil machinations of -late at night-, muffled vocals and sharpened snares glinting in the streetlights. safety arrives in the form of the aptly titled -less violence.- rhythms are still rough edged, melodies still have an underhanded element. yet there is a subdued humanity in the sweetened strings, emotion coming to a head as the needle runs out.

fresh off the heels of the success of their ‘waiting ground’ ep, the boys in black, frank & tony, are skating back onto the scene with another four track summer stomper, ‘under the jaguar sun’. the a-side starts things off with the titular track, a rollicking deep house number primed for sunset raves. a bouncing and lush bass line is the back bone of the track, as crisp hi-hats, distant, yearning pads, and shimmering bells propel dancers forward into eyes closed euphoria. things ramp up quickly into peak-time ecstasy on the breakaway edit of solo andata’s “a ballet of hands.” a whirling dervish of delicate music boxes, bowed guitars, delicate music boxes, and distant horns swirl around and weave in and out between a skipping drum pattern, pushing and pulling alongside a gruff and stuttering bass, perfect for those late night rooftop ventures.

hailing from mexico, zombies in miami have caught the ears of the electro disco faithful with outings for correspondent and love on the rocks. the twosome are debuting on bordello a parigi with a pair of late night burners. turquoise is a sliding snaking piece of synthesizer sorcery. crisp beats are draped in hazy harmonies, reverb soaked bars rising amongst soaring keys and echoed vocals for a work of true elation. hipodromo follows, and starts as it means to go out. drums crash before a floor melting synthline is dropped. the swirl of the mirrorball takes over as this duo whisk you into the warm and melting sounds of strings, rich bass and climbing claps.

in 2007, renowned french producer julien jabre tracked down the american gospel singer phyliss mckoy joubert on myspace. joubert was already a cult figure for house aficionados thanks to -stand on the word-, a song she wrote and performed with her -celestial choir- in 1982 that became a staple of the club scene in new york. it resurfaced as a mysterious bootleg in 2000. julien, who d fallen in love with the song, was eager to remix and officialy rerelease it. when he finally reached out to phyliss, she explained the multitrack tape had been lost. the only thing to do was rerecording it-along with 10 other tracks. today on french label elias, julien and the joubert singers are releasing -stand on the word- in its original and unique 1982 version (mistakenly named after larry levan) and 3 brand new mixes including a fresh dimitri from paris remix. that s how the good lord works!

the contemporaly house tracks which combine his established heavy groove, smoothness & beautiful essence! -secret floor 002- misterious, raw feeling & the roop of vocal sample are intertwined together to be miraculous sounds-saturday night- melodious and uplifting house track-o-nature- unique sound quality made by mpc & the trumpet sample greatly melt together -sky lounge- slow down...dope track with a spice of japanese sample blackoly profile:dj, beatmaker, and sound producer in tokyo, japan. born in 1981, his parents taught him to play in a forest and make what he wants to play by himself. started his dj carrer when he was 19.the first track he played was -bucktown- by smif-n-wessun. in the ensuing year he started making tracks under the name of dj shibaki. kept releasing his own tracks by casset tapes and cd-r and released -document-(12-) in 2006. after that he released mix cd -abstract- and -gravity-, and he has done around 100 of play in a year with his style of going back and forth freely among various sounds evolving abstract, breakbeats and hiphop.in 2009 he played together with dday one, dorian concept without knowing who they are. when he played together with dj kensei, he got a meaningfull comment -do you always do such a mix?- in 2010 he became immersed in creating tracks with mpc2000xl which was not not used for a long time, and started doing dj & live only with his own tracks by using cd-r & kaoss pad. thereafter he started making house tracks under the name of blackoly influenced by house djs & dancers whom he has played with since 2000s. the various music in his background & the dancer s excitement on the floor like -house- atmosphere greatly melted together and it led to build his unique sounds. in 2013 he released -dirty channel-(12-), in 2014 -dr.circus-(cd), and his work continues to this time.

firstly, a huge thanks to everyone for supporting us so far - 2016 has seen the dext label continuing to go from strength to strength, with our callahan and mella dee ep s backed with remixes from hodge and endian which have been been super well received. now for the third ep of the year from our resident comedian bodyjack. bodyjack has been an integral part of dext since he remixed dubspeeka on our 2nd release and headlined our label takeover of privilege in ibiza last summer. we are very excited about his return to the label with this 3-tracker (and our first full solo artist ep!), and we think you re going to dig this... the title track cobra effect is one of those tracks you aren t going forget in a hurry. intense and brooding, we are hard-pushed to categorise this, but layers of sinister bass coupled with dark, driving snares and eerie synth work culminate masterfully, making this the perfect dext track. hydra effect lifts the vibe with a straight up peak-time house jam with a sting in the tail. a raw-but-infectious bassline winds along under bodyjack s signature killer drum programming, before blasting off with something you aren t going to expect. rounding the ep off is slowine effect: a proper dancehall workout (reminiscent of bodyjack s earlier work) and a real cross-genre party starter. the most upbeat of the 3 tracks, this again takes all the elements of what we love about the music from the past and cleverly works them into something special for the rave. and that s not all for bodyjack on dext this year - he will be back with a one-off ltd record called -hot shot-, backed with a very special remixer...but more on that soon!

the music here is very much in the spirit of the label s kosmische/space berlin-school agenda, both reflecting his earlier work and exploring new territory simultaneously. lush orchestrations and beautiful synth pads contrast against hypnotic rhythms and delicate melodies, and while the label s mission might be -electronic listening music- tracks like red bird and mistral are surely dj material too.

hungarian imprint farbwechsel has built up a varied and interesting discography over its 4 years of existence. this limited edition cassette from bouchons d orelles deviates slightly from the label s normal aesthetic, taking a more industrial/drone route with the original tracks. the remixes are also a fantastic and well thought-out edition to the release, with the s.olbricht remix standing out.

pets are proud to welcome long-time friend mathias kaden whose making his label debut with two of the trippiest, sense-shaking, freakiest jams we think hes ever conjured. as teased in his recent boiler room show (and most sets hes played lately), both polyphonic and nokick offer a fresh-yet-heritage rooted take on techno and have been tailored to cut through on the biggest of festival and carnival rigs. perfect timing, then.

berlin duo soukie & windish are releasing their second long-player work ‘loom’ on their home label ‘ursl records’ this coming may. an album for the moment, looming its way through our moves with its dreamy, escapist moods. loom carries accents of dirty micro-pop while managing to be both upbeat and deep simultaneously. it is an album of tension — pushing out through every carefully selected drum and every distant, distorted synth line. it marks the moment when you decide not to go home.

jeremiah r has been responsible for some of the finest electro to be released over the past few years, with his mini albums for tabernacle records being particularly potent. here he launches the distant wave label with eight more chunks of atmospheric, far-sighted futurism. as usual, he flits between ambient style interludes and more expansive dancefloor fare. in the latter category you ll find the motor city techno futurism of -bermuda triangle-, the glistening idm loveliness of -streaming to arcadia-, the larry heard-in-space deepness of -cruiser-, and the drexciyan throb of -jar (jamming avoidance response)-. all are, naturally, both luscious and pleasingly melodious, whilst retaining an intergalactic sense of atmosphere.

tetsumasa’s debut ep “asa” on his own saidan label. solid sounds between savage broken rhythms somehow feels urban, flat and texturally dry. various sound components such as dub, noise, bass music and ambient are mixed within and thus creating unique sound world. it is expectable from his irregular beats that one of his music roots is abstract hip hop. “asa ep” has a remix from mogano, the owner of berlin label arboretum. tetsumasa doesn’t need a concept. this is his own sound pieces you can experience a variety of sensations.

ltd summer 2016 deal.. its a really clever go lucky move that the never resting glückskind founders michael klang and jürgen kirsch got samuel knob on board. the valencia-based producer really knows how twist those knobs to come up with the craziest noises. his skills, honed during his residency times at barraca music and narita club, are perfectly put into use with this crafty release that should have people dancing on the roof tops--naked. samuel, a drummer who jumpstarted his musical career at the age of sixteen in a pop-rock band, is exploring the outer realms of percussive beats, incorporated in a tight yet not at all minimal sounding house construct. inspired by his father who is also a drummer and programmer, he does not hesitate to foray into unknown dimensions, making this eleventh glückskind release a very special piece of black gold

irishman brendan gregory aka chymera has become an integral part of the international club scene. this techno and house productions are based on his skilful way to incorporate different styles and genres such as minimal techno and even the trance, which leads to a very own and surpreme handwriting. like his mentor and friend funk dvoid or like his fellow cocoon recordings colleague tim green, chymera appears to one of the few artists who can be assigned to a very own and recognizable sound.
