welcome to the new single from faze action taken from their eagerly anticipated album, stratus energy. theremins, clavs, rock guitar riffs and spacey disco vocals make good lovin sound like a classic disco track from the early 80s but in fact its brand new, with a heavy dose of contemporary production in the classic faze action style. the reflex mix has a more stripped down electronic feel, added keys and a boogiefied bass while the shogone deep mix is a more house based mix with tuff, snappy beats. with limited promos, good lovin has already been causing a stir in the disco scene and in the main stream, already receiving spins from pete herbert, of reverso 68 and joey negro in ibiza during the summer, showing early signs of appealing to a wider audience

nice price deal !!! this is the first in an occasional series of dissident special projects. >i was recently asked to do a remix for a brand new tune by italo legend alexander robotnick< the result was 15 minutes of 808, burbling acid bass, pro one and heavily effected chicago style spoken vocals which was deemed too long to fit on the commercially released 12 so the label (this is music - run by simian mobile disco) thought it would be a good idea to release a very limited number of 12s as a promo only. so thats what this is, a joint dissident/this is music release of a remix that wont ever be available on any other vinyl issue. limited to 200 copies, one sided

venezuelan producer argenis brito graces us with his sophomore cadenza release, the imminent ep. renowned for his role as lead vocalist for senor coconut as well as his collaborative projects with artists as decorated as luciano, pier bucci, jay haze and samim, the multi-talented argenis solo work comes with some pedigree. resident in berlin since 2004, his distinctly latin interpretation of house is a step ahead of the game, with prior releases on junion and cadenza animating floors with that inimitable south american fervour. title track >imminent< is a playful affair,with bouncing bass and a shimmering synth melody dancing around the kick. intoxicating and funked up, the melodies call and respond in a fragmented conversation while pulsing echoed tones add depth to the mix. >mind body soul< stutters into a complex percussive pattern, coloured by warm keys and blocks of bass tone. funky is the word, as a distorted vocal directs bodies to the floor. deep and immersive, dark melodic synth movements plunge us into a sweaty and cathartic house hole. on the flip, >lolipop< combines electro and house elements into one cheeky dance with the devil. bubbling bass flows under cascading melodic synth, as fat percussion crunches around sharp vocal bursts. slick and futuristic, this is for that time of the night where looking backwards is not an option.closing the ep, >unreality< is as deep as they come. warm and uncompromising key stabs pulsate over a no-nonsense bass drive, accented by harmonising clav tones. living up to its moniker, the resonant melodies and hypnotic pace conspire to transcendental effect.

boxcutters work, due to its bass-led and rhythmically 2 step nature, is often categorised as dubstep, although in style and idiosyncracies has more in common with idm artists such as squarepusher and ? ziq. together with kinnego flux the belfast based band/ensemble. funk and soul music with electronics using instruments, vocals, computers and hardware synths and modules.

one of technos most diverse and prolific producers ‘mark broomis back again to demonstrate the definition of dub techno. this is a purist record through and through that unashamedly harks back to the classic chain reaction and basic channel sound, something that the world and its djs crave endlessly, and rightly so. all four cuts sail forth in calm warmth and steady bass, massive reverbs and echo are worked intermittently lifting everything upwards like a strong cosy breeze. the listener is forcibly bounced up and down in a gentle fashion, (we would expect nothing less than gentlemanly behaviour from broomer) and through proper application of decibels a full cellular body massage can result. this is essential dub for the techno journeyman out there. not only great to listen to, but also a helping hand with your exfoliation routine.

literon and ovatow exchanged elements for this ultra heavy dub techno release. permutation one is literons original take and is build on an outstanding punchy groove with a sort of oldschool-ish club vibe, and with multiple layers of dub effects sprinkled on top of that. this is peak time techno at its best. ovatow takes us way deeper with permutation two. taking the original elements and drown them in gated effect processors and reshaping it to a deep, smokey, bass heavy monster that carries his unique and delicate sound signature. check!

pedro delgardo said >bosnias very own legend dj mika is up here with 2 very very exciting tracks of full on grooving bass techno in true phat mika style. burnout and zion both hit the spot, shit loads of percussion and quick drop edit breaks. dj mika is one of the techno geezers to keep your eye on for sure!. both these tracks are currently being played out by me and are more than special top marks for patterns on this one. 5/5<

franco cangelli is back on mowar with deep and spacy techno grooves. >locked on< goes in a stripped down techno alley with basic square grooves layered with a drifting sawtooth bass sound that gradually shows its teeth and gets you down there... estroe turns this groover into a deep workout, soul music for emotional cyborgs, with strings creating a melancholic detroitish feel. >create your own space< is a techno soul track where stabbing chords and lullaby pads make sweet love to square bass melodies and off-beat rhythms. it s a deep groover in the strictest sense. glasgow s solab from seventh sign give the track a more uplifting feel retaining the original s deepness but adding an element of raw dancefloor friendliness. mowar stands for quality deep techno and this third release delivers you just that

dj roland clark hits us with another soulful stunner. his artistic range over the years has proven his dynamic ability to go from spoken word preacher to hard house vocalist to pure soulful singer as heard on this current release, goodbye love. upping the ante on the remix is sole channels own supreme nyc producer alix alvarez whose production on the aa sc vox mix is the exact fit for this song. his sc fly dub is slightly pumpier and deeper for those who like to keep the bass heavy and the head groovin.

the mighty shoes crew follow up their miles davis 12inch with this 4 track ep of bohannon re edits/remixes. deep and groovy and sure to please. me & my diva (a groover), summertime groove (with some serious slap bass), save their soles (deep head nodder) and come and dance (awesome!).
