after the big success of our first release on outils du connaisseur, we present the second strike, this time by afrilounge-member liapin. basila is his the first solo release, and all the more an impressive one: two deep and slamming house-tunes, basic but concurrently fond of nitty-gritty. according our outils philosophy these two tracks are genuine strippeddown house cuts for maximum floor impact. basila – a massive, slapping bass, rolling drums and shreds of guitar sounds are the dominating trademarks of this track. once the compelling groove catches you, the hypnotizing vocal in the break will inevitably bewitch you. this is one for both body and soul. black mamba features a bassline so corporal, you almost inclined to give it a social security number.

deep and fresh innovative minimal house/ techno 3 tracker. from the first beat on the bass drives through the stamping groove, tears away vocal snatches and sound fragments like acoustical driftwood and heads straight for the peak. the flip side comes along a bit calmer without being less powerful and surprises with a deep vocal theme. the package is rounded by laufmasche s forensic remix which again reflects his unique style.

includes a fresh 2008 mix of bredasblars gabba bass!!!

2006 classic!! includes bredasblars gabba bass!!

transmissions florales is massis first vinyl release. the density of the 808 drums reminds us this is synthetic from the start. but as the the swirling, phasing 7th chords and the crystal-like lead tones build up and blend with the laid-back wah-wah guitars, this simple song take us to some sensual, forgotten place with swaying limbs and flashing lights. with a few changes in structure and the timbre of the bass, the acid mix proposes an alternate scenario - gliding to the edge of madness with a wink at raving in the late 80s. are we in the disco? or at the seashore? keep on moving, keep on flying. bionic gulls call to each other over the oceans arpeggios. >alpha base< uses a similar synth palette, but with quite different results. rather than waves, this piece seems to evoke dramatic weather over a jagged terrain. the funky, syncopated bass and percussion remind us of some ancient tribal ceremony on parched soil. odd sound effects imitate the heat and sudden shots of lightning, while the ascending pentatonic breaks suggest a primitive electronic geisha, draped in mylar foil, deflecting the suns rays as she dances for the gods. she performs an intricate sequence of steps, each with its own placement and hidden meaning… having spent the past 2 years entertaining crowds at underground clubs in berlin and around the eu, massi is already somewhat known to those who enjoy dancing to whatever is eclectic, energetic, and atmospheric. now, perhaps more people will hear his special groove. we hope you share our joy, our obsession… and the particular oscillations from this very personal >transmission florale<

fresh from the success of his new album, ninja tuna, mr scruff dips his line back in the sea with the funktabulous get on down. taking a little chunk of 70s soul goodness (a prince phillip mitchell song, sung by johnny adams) and turning it into scruffy sashimi, this is undoubtedly one of the dancefloor stand outs of an album guaranteed to get any crowd bumping. hold on, on the other hand, features the smooooth vox of andreya triana, but nothing can stop scruff from dropping lashings of bass squelch - plus a little extra bangingness on the alternate version hold the dub. altogether uplifting, chest vibrating and all round marvellous, this is brit soul the way it should be done.

energetic drum & bass double vinyl!!

die zahl 77 bietet viel raum für interpretationen. >es geht hier um die musik<, sagt benjamin brunn und bedankt sich noch bei seinem bruder tobias, der bei >schnell nachts noch fisch< den bass zupft. mit material dieser band machte benjamin die b-seite: >clown<. ladies and gentlemen, genießen sie die show

continuing to plough further into the depths of the warm yet quirky vibes napt offer up a perfect slice of authentic breakbeat funk with work this out. with a healthy nod to the classic house sounds of early 90’s new york they serve up a huge melodic riff that mutates in true n-funk style into a supremely satisfying jacking multi layered bass work out.

jazzy eyewear, aka so sounds dj mood, teams up with icon and the swirl peepz for an absolutely essential doublepack of funky house grooves! five tracks in all, this release has plenty of hot flavors to please jocks of all styles. its the a-side swirl peepz cut that will get the most action, a stripped-down bass-heavy dubby banger that does the sexually-charged tense vocal some justice - peak-hour gear for heather, carter, farina and the like. meanwhile luke sardello adds some acid magic, jazzy eyewear mixes 303 and tribal beats on his original, and the swirlies throw in a nice dub as well. big release that will please everybody, great work icon!

dennis ferrers the world as i see it album is still being listened to and its tracks are still being played, hence the remixes are gonna keep on comin… one of the most memorable tunes from the album, run free, is seeing remixes by 2 very distinct and quality remixers oddly found at opposite ends of the earth. uks sean mccabe debuts his talent for king street after having had past remixes and productions released on soulfuric deep, fluential, device, soundmen on wax, tony records and more. his chunky beat-filled interpretation of this single has a tough enough bass drum and nice enough funky key jabs as to keep the great energy flowing but not overpower the song. japanese-nyc transplant producer tomo experience grooves and soothes the eardrum. his easy kicks and lightly bouncing bassline puts a nice spin on this tune, all the while kt brooks (r.i.p.) fervent vocal laying atop the 2 re-product ions. check out these cool remixes for great measure and greater flow.

one of the biggest tracks in 2003, certainly here at syntax, gets a rework courtesy of landshark lance desardi and luke sardello. landshark main mix removes the adam sandler intro, beefs up the beats and adds an extra melody, almost german poptastic, and includes an instrumental. flip for the dub - huge oompty shiznit happenings ! massive wobbly reverb bass and a touch of quirky acid, little telephone ring loops ad shuffled hi-hats. >mix your own temptation<is an acapella with hand claps. icon roll on

big with: andrea bertolli, elio riso, john acquaviva, deep dish, tom stephan, .. xavi beat returns! one of the biggest deejays & producers from fresco records presents his new production after a long time playing in clubs only. xavi beat is evolving to minimal sounds, without losing the fresco sound which characterized him. cyclic is the 19th release and has two tracks full of power that will delight the most demanding clubbers. inside the first track we can see original version. a sound that sorround you from the first minute. endless and constant rises, the presence of powerful bass joins with electronic sounds to form sequences that will drag you to an endless number of sensations. the second track is a remix created by dformation one of the most recognized deejay & producer in the international music scene. that remix is more progressive house than the other track with minimal touches full of strength and style. choose the track you want, but without doubt this single will not fail to surprise at any deejay set.

heavy bass action and driving sounds make this one a true techno 2-tracker.

malatoid records is back! 5 artists and 4 great tracks to complete this fantastic release mathias schaffhaeuser (ware) and giuseppe carpentieri aka pep(ware/regular/maschine) on the a side. arnaud le texier (safari electronique) and citizen kain (mbf) vs jaumetic (regular) on the other side

nice price deal !!! nother pounding hybrid set of low-end killers here from hot-flush, kicking off with the tumbling rhythms and wobbling sublow of ?deep under? - its a track that teeters on the brink of breaks science throughout, keeping itself wrapped up in a relentless bass envelope despite the distractions brought on by constantly evolving skitters - mighty stuff. the rhodes-inflected breaks and bass clash of ?sparkle? offers time for reflection on the flip, borrowing a melodic underlay from some abandoned, dusty jazz-club somewhere strange, tugging you back underground with its careful arrangement if frequencies at the lowest end of the spectrum. righteous

on her first release for dirtybird, chicago native j.phlip has created a track that is both intricate and massive. a wall of devastating bass anchors rumble rumble’s assault, bolstered by an effervescent rhythmic net of popcorn snaps, soda cans popping open, and seductive whispers and giggles at the very edge of audibility.

stefanik ist ein alpha- männchen in seiner spezies, ausgestattet mit jeder menge neugier bewies er bereits in der vergangenheit (bitte discogs wälzen), dass sein antreibender bass mit diamantener strahlkraft von den wänden zurück zu prallen scheint. auch hier funkt und treibt es dynamiken empor die wolken am himmel tanzen lassen

gowentgone holen den deep house aus seiner geschmäcklerischen isolation um ihn vom kopf auf die füße zu stellen. der track >love & respect< ist chef: ein stoßsicheres fundament aus beats und bass bietet die ideale plattform für ausflüge in alle himmelsrichtungen, vom entspannten predigertum hin zu gleichermaßen heroischen wie unpathetischen flächen

after several remixes and longtime waiting our artist h.o.s.h. releases his next own ep. and he is back with a real banger! >the valve< sounds connected to steppenwolf, but feels more like a coninue: more modern, more pushing and more groove. like hell! a balkan- flute plays sometimes, but very harmonic to the track. heebie-jeebie! >super sick bowl< is a fantastic groove, too, but a bit more housy like classic recordings. awesome, never boring housebeat spiced with two cool and sick breaks. this loop could run forever. single words work perfect with the beat and provide a stimulating sexappeal. under a fig tree starts more technoid with the sound, but has still a groovy house for 3 minutes til the break - and out of this break a new sound is evolving. on the one this track continues with a warm bass hook, leaving the technoid sounds behind. what a twist! just beautyfull! thanx hosh

new dancefloor killa hit for this duo, using carrie lukas sample and playing with rhythmics and rolling bass. vocalist is.... wellknown must ....

roaring bass and a rave-signal - do we need more? 2001 techno by bryan zentz who knows just one direction - forward!

drum n bass legend decoder is still at the forefront of underground dance, and continues developing his rolling, progressive breakbeat sound on ricochet this autumn...

the long awaited trentemøller debut album - maybe one of the most anticipated independent albums of the year. trentemøller is one of the hottest artists on the electronic circuit - the man of the moment! a beautifully crafted, astonishing masterpiece, that will leave you breathless. the tracks form a story, almost like the soundtrack of a movie. it manages to capture a whole range of emotions in subtle melodic miniatures, dreamy ambiences, dusty beats, deep dub-tracks and driving groove-excursions. an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colours and moods, -the last resort- without a doubt contains trentemøllers best work to date. although its an electronic album, it also incorporates live-drums, guitars, bass and other acoustic instruments like celesta, glockenspiel, melodica and even dj scratching to create a more organic feel

superb & deep techno tracks. berghain classic!!! supported by gregor tresher, len faki, angel molina, laurent garnier, agoria, xpansul, fabrice lig, karotte, jennifer cardini , tsugi mag, dave clarke, dj hell, savas pascalidis, anthony shake shakir,…

the truesoul imprint represents the somewhat soulful side of its owner - adam beyer. here, cari lekebusch takes up the challenge and produces two wonderful tracks. on the a side we are treated to a wonderful deep 808 driven groove with eerie pads, neat reverses and cool cowbells that creates a wonderful intensity. on the flip side again the deep groove is apparent with neat vocoded vocal samples and fat bass before there is a cool break and the main synth sound appears in the track to give it a seriously intense lift

dj support by dj hell, luciano, troy pierce, davide squillace (dc10, ibiza) and many more... name+relucto first gathered praise as remixers for the aforementioned fool with their demented re rub of drama earlier this year. their debut is a four track vinyl and digital release. longblackcurlyteeth’ is a dark and deadly slice of techno which germinates from stripped sleeparchive style minimalism into a gloopy acid evolution that plunges and skews itself into the sinister depths of foreboding, resonant evil. blueballs picks up the tempo and undulates along a jacking groove of raw metallic, mashed up alien calypso funk. title track spawnofspoon is a demonic mongrel of future styles. this scuzzy hip hop homage is riddled with shredded vocals and mutant bass modulations which explode into a post rave, acid armageddon. alex cotex is in devastating form with his hypnotic rework of lbct, the result is a mesmerising, relentless beast that reverberates a pulsing throb underpinned by a fizzing 303 bassline

adam beyer imprint. a stunning two tracker by agaric and steve logan. the a side is a fantastic chugging track with razor sharp production that just builds and builds with key elements like swirling vocals and synths and a funky bassline. the flip takes a much darker approach with its reverse bass line, synth pattern and super sharp hi hats. this is another fanatastic release from one of the hottest labels around at the moment

in our opinion alex bau is one of the best harder techno producers out there. his material over the last 5 years has been both energetic and groundbreaking. his material for zenit has been particulrly good and this is new release is is no exception. both tracks are different but equally effective. the a side is a driving hard edged techno cut with its pounding kick drum and sharp percssion. the track is punctauted with catchy synth riffs and stabs to great effect. the flip side is truly monstrous with its dark dirty warehouse feel and fat sub bass and string edits. great, great record

great forward going techno mover

special extra 12 inch to that big album!! felix kröcher & eric sneo - two names that stand worldwide for >techno< - have got together for a very special collaboration, >connected< is not only the title of their joint album but also the name of a project that includes their international tour.

after the first release >girasole<, the next output is >tulipano<, a brillant ep composed by krakatoa and sten, the new young talent artist from turin! two different tracks created at border between house and detroit techno, with deep bass and pumping kicks, both characterized by saxophone and trumpet live recorded sounds

a brand new ep from the count & sinden, which showcases their love of all sorts of club music, from garage to r n b, from hip hop to grime. lead track hardcore girls is the sound of the much hyped baltimore breaks scene, evolved, displaced and mutated as only the count & sinden know how. fronted by the hottest thing out of b more since the wire, 17 year old wild child of the mike, rye rye. she has been touring the states with mia and, now signed to interscope, she is set to do big things. her unique and energetic vocal is treated to one of the duo’s best bumpy bass grooves and the combined effect is nothing short of devastating. another new school talent picked up on by the count & sinden is ny. bubbling on the uk underground, she fronts the hardcore, jungle inflected soul that is fool in love. this is pop music for the now and tomorrow, a classic love song set to a raucous jungle inspired backing track which has become a live favourite over the summer.finally we have jme, a legend in the grime scene, known for his tight flows, guest appearances and his boy better know franchise. industry gives an overview of the pit falls of getting involved in the trickiest of games... the music business. and who would want to get involved in that shit!?!

reinventing the word dj, insideamind is the leading force in turntable music performance. knowing no limits, innovators steptone & professor fingers raise the bar high with their natural showmanship. spellbinding soundtracks, head snapping breaks, tears, laughter, and magic make up their acrobatic, high energy onstage flow. blowing away audiences not just with clever samples, but an onslaught of layered beats, big bass, and sudden switches to live improvised remixes that pull crowds deep into their world. the tiniest spy is insideamind?s first vinyl single, the title track features the exquisite vocals of laura barrett from paper bag records, over the furious drum beats, scratches and soundscapes created by steptone and professor fingers. a matter of time takes you a head nodding hip hop feel, featuring a daunting techno style remix by murr (from lal) and old school hip hop remix by toronto?s circle research crew (a recent signing to melting pot music).

this is not a drum & bass record. really. spl comes with his first ever hardcore record

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

here we have three tracks from the >some other country< album (k7 records 2007) smile and receive - roger 23 mix : featuring cassy (panorama bar) on vocals . remixed by the analog freak , roger 23 (playhouse /240 volts) hailing from deepest saarbrucken . super sub chicago house track , perfect for late night early morning playing .......pure analog heaven! imagine a morning at studio 54 projected into 2008 - wonky goodness. claktronic - experimental live percussion, flutes, and strange ramblings from the voice of daisy densham (aged 4) , add atmosphere to this swiss inspired house tune . why swiss you ask ? well i keep hearing cowbells! a very trippy vibe that gets into your brain, you will be hearing the loop all day. distress and calling - a blissful philip glass inspired sub bass growler , euphoric arpeggiated voices pad over the deep bass and tight snare drum , making up a fine ep of classic swayzak ........ the bigger the system the better this one sounds. crystal clear production all the way

great forward thinking drum n bass monster

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.

first pressing in white coloured vinyl, wake up is bound to be a winner with its cool groove, strong bass & catchy voc loop. an 8min+ deep tech masterpiece !! on the vanity side 2 killer tracks by tommy vicari jnr.

bleeps and synths are running after a deviant bass, all of them taking turns in invading the dancefloor. an epic tune made of dissonant stems matching one each other precisely to create a very pulsating house / techno beat.

banging atmospheric breaks bizz with live drums and bass and this huuge synth riffs!!! massive...

last years breakspoll best single winners far too loud take their audio toolbox and set about dismantling the vocal monster innocent from the album. featuring the distinctive vocals of yolanda and some ungodly sonic trickery, bass action and arrangement tweakery this mix is really quite special.

killer release from blackjoy. pure old skool house like they dont do anymore... perfect blend between the old and the new with a real eye for the floor. plain and simple: we love it !!!! hand writen numbered limited pressing of 300. no more, no repress.

this time its all dope ammos own work with >cold rock a party<, a track which will do exactly what it says on the tin, and >rumble< packed with plenty off sub-bass to do just that on the dancefloor

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.

limited edition that includes all three records of the album...
