after their magical 23rd digital release, polands elektropunkz label take their metaphysical musical offerings to the physical product for the first time with their debut vinyl release. this is a bee-stinging super sharp shooting yellow limited 1-sided ep with tracks from fotoplastikon, interfunk & loyal plastic robot. first to detonate is interfunks pacy bubbling claustrophobic >get up< electro wave workout. moving east is gdansks loyal plastic robot (who has previously released on bunker) with >italian bomber<, a string-driven track with italo layers and keys contrasting with a bassline smothered in darkness. last up is the euphoric symphonic majesty of fotoplastikons >misja profesora terbovena< – a dynamite piece of classic analogue italo-synth stylings with some ultra-funky keys breaking through to take you to outer space and the fitting finale for this first vinyl release on elektropunkz. limited release of 111 copies!

supported by: joakim (tigersushi), shawn mac, xaver von tryer (supersoul rec.), cosmo vitelli, walter jones (dfa), in flagranti, lsb dance disorder, discodromo, space ranger, makossa & megablast, dj morpheus, drrtyhaze, riotus rockers, bottin,.. 2000 lightyears from home is a slow track, but the boys conjure up thick beats reminiscent of early electro and an acid bassline that flows down smoothly. the remix is by altair nouveau, who we recently heard with a great work on dfa/solardisco. he delivers a moroder influenced more dancefloor oriented version. on the b side, come back, a direct track with a sure effect on the dancefloor, house beat and super groovy bassline

supported by: nick curly, anja schneider, samuel l session, steve bug, will saul, milton jackson.. after releases from drei farben house and paulo olarte, polytone is joined by matthias vogt. being a member of motorcitysoul (together with frankfurts house legend crock), matthias vogt has been teaching lessons in deepness for years now. in his solo works vogts profound education as a jazz musician is just as present. thus, >together as one< is carried by wonderfully deep chords, which are accentuated by a contrapuntal bassline. a classic male vocal highlights the soulfulness even more and turns this track into a marvellous deephouse affair.

dolly continues after the great jakob korn release... steffi and old klakson label partner dexter colaborate. dexter drops dolly 2 with some mad old schoolish detroit influence called 1992... this is what we would have loved to hear from reese! with the trade mark sharp beats of dexter injected with phat funking kms techno (including reese bassline). redbox is the same recipe. dancefloor orientated old school house and techno influences with powerful production skills. big peaktime tracks without doing the standard tricks... pure dancefloor blizz!

10 mixes/versions of this uk #1 heartbreaker by taio cruz and ludacris.

nice price deal !!! idiot is already something of a hit with those whove heard it being played out, combining hard soca drums with lush ecstatic melodic synth harmonies and a driving bass with a strange 8-bit melody that stumbles and trips around the rhythm. its completely alien at first, but potent enough to stick in your ears until you might catch yourself humming the refrain when you least expect it. a unique and fantastic combination of compelling contemporary sounds! altered natives, aka north london producer danny native, whose track >rass out< was one of 2009s best, takes over the b-side with a remix that seems to reflect 20 years of british house music back on itself. just using the bleeps from the original tune, he echoes and morphs his own melody over stepping dubby kicks and snares and a dark, driving bassline

the italian dynamic duo is back on the trail with another set of soul house grooves. this time they teamed up with l.t. ‘,the voice’, brown and deliver with “,body music”, a homage to purple music. massive ‘,feel-good’,-music with l.t. in top form and a very funky beat and bassline. several mixes to choose from alfred azzetto, mark grant, davide fiorese & sisco. «body music» is a very good tune from a talented duo.

the a side starts with a haunting deep electro-ish intro track >hall of mirrors<, followed by >l.a. rocks electro<, a phat electro bomb with heavy vocoder action and 80s b-boy vibe on it. a3 >malos de la noche< is a monster electro-disco track in giorgio moroder kicking back style, spiced up with a deep bassline and sweeping synths. pura koka! >russian invasion< on the b side is melancholic but yet hard rocking electro track with catchy drum programming and massive synths – an absolute hit! the last track on the ep is >los medicos con coca<, a smooth electro-disco jam inspired by miami vice. just imagine sonny and rico in their black daytona spider cruising down the streets of miami on a sunny summer day in 1984.

meet desto. we found him wandering the streets of helsinki, eating canned tuna and drinking the water from a tin of hot dogs, desperately clutching armfuls of sticky future garage. starting off in spacey 2step rhythms, falling over bassline, and breaking down into an euphoric 8 bit cascade, the epic >disappearing reappearing ink< finally reaches wax after being in the boxes of pretty much everybody all year. on the flip, >broken memory< was given its first exclusive airing by oneman on radio 1 to much acclaim, and takes more of a straight up approach, and retains all of the fluid c64 chiptune beauty.
dj support from rob da bank, oneman, brackles, sinden, floating points, clouds, mary anne hobbs.

the one-two kick drum beat that starts “in the dark of the night” functions as a bit of a tease. instead of merely establishing the languid pace of the track, it has the power of suggestion, and its stark nakedness raises the question of what will happen after the music fully launches. a few seconds later, a punch-drunk, flanging keyboard is the first clue that the listener is in for an off-kilter ride, the sauntering bassline that next appears adds a springy, funk bounce. but it’s the tripped-out, multi-tracked vocals of fernando miranda rios, aka michoacan, the producer behind this slow reveal, that give the song its peculiar, space-yvibe. it’s like david byrne with funk aspirations and a vaguely cosmic feel. the b-side remix, courtesy of italy’s clap rules, feels like more of a re-build. the song has been taken apart and put back together with brand new parts. instead of more relaxed, dazed funk at the core, it’s a glittery, disco-ball splattered track with glossy keys all around.

nice price deal !!! a rolling bassline kick that glides trough snapping and chopped up vocals makes this track a certain floor filler. and when half way trough you hear the latino guitar riff slice its way in, you can just wait until it hits off.giving the track power and funk! and incredibile mix of latino funk and straight on 4/ house. on b side you can find an eclectic remix of stoned chicken, who brings out a more samba feel also by dubbing down the guitar, a gradual build up track.

the new minimalrome series for clubbers in sick-leave! the hacker known for his classic releases with miss kittin comes with a new track called -haunted- which is a kraftwerk, dopplereffekt inspired electro track, with an 808 punching pattern counterpointing a deep analogue bassline enveloped in rich, harmonic pads. on the b side, a remix by feedback remix who delivers a solid acid electro techno work out as we know of some lory d and early passarani works. the second remix is the banda banetti remix (a new minimalrome project) with pulsating acid lines and fast paced hautning techno electro beats. get those strobe lights flashin!! mrx records are sadly limited to 250 copies

already proving to be something of a hit within the soulful house community danny clarks solid ground label continues its rich vein of form with their anticipated third release – this time featuring the vocal talents of andrea love. widely known for her work with jamie lewis on purple music,her debut outing on solid ground is another infectious & uplifting soulful jam complete with rich piano keys & killer bassline. &#8232,,,remixes come this time out with gogo musics ralf gum, doruk ozlen and another blinding remix from the effervescent souldynamic.

more ruff jamz from the 6th borough project bunker kicking off with the supa-dupa-slo-mo-soul cut, >slow down baby<, with chopped up strings and heroin-house bassline all present. the flip brings us >closer< to the edit and pitches us nearer the holy grail of tempos. >stratus quo< gives us tracky rhodes action on the intro and sends us a message in the music. number five is alive.

the dc series continues with cosmin trg, known for his releases on hotflush and tempa a.o. >see other people< is an infectious garage stepper, announcing the future of r&b. big tune! >groove control< continues on a techno tip. it starts off deep and mysterious, evolving in a pulsating, acidic bassline driven killer. we like trg!

a pair of bangin tribal cuts from brothers vibe on the first release on the mixx label. >conga terado< is all about the beats, with a solid kickdrum laying the foundation for some killer tribal beats and percussion. nothing else used here, its just bangin beats all the way. on the reverse, >slave to the rhythm< opens with a thudding kickdrum alongside some filtered synths and a stabbing vocal before the tribal gear comes into play. again, no bassline here, just layer upon layer of percussion and drums. should be perfect for the pro jocks amongst you to tool around with.
attention! low pressing quality - crackling sounds!

heres a mighty steamroller of a track by funky californian cole medina, co-founder of the house arrest label, that aims to put the ghetto back in house music, and esteemed producer with a jazz background championed by the haute-volee of current disco and house djs. while his slo-mo bee-gees cut-up is still the center-piece of numerous latenight/ early morning sleaze hours worldwide, >red hot< is quite another beast: footstomping peak-time action with dangling funk guitar and dubby brass stabs. finally dropping after todd terje already included it in his resident advisor almost two years back with an additional stellar the mole ( wagon repair, philpot ) on the support. canadas funkdoobiest reconstructs it in a jacking, midtempo wild pitch manner around a dirty fuzzy bassline plus cut-up beat and wah-wah guitar that will slap you silly. this hurts so good!

finally, the long wait is over! we are proud to present the first solo effort by leviste and its been worth the wait. three ultra varied tracks starting with the driving drums and bassline of >senioritis<. >better get used to it< shows off levistes melodic abilities with a beautiful melancholic epic. these first two songs really show what an important role leviste has played in the duos productions over the years. >change the station< rounds things out with a bit of modular synth experimentation over a jacking rhythm track.

blind minded lives in london and is famous for his live appearances and has his third release with trapez ltd with >mr propre<. his first two release on trapez ltd was supported heavily and where charted by the italoboyz so weare looking forward to his follow up. >mr. propre< is the return of what used to be of the detroit sound blended with modern spontaneous changes in mood and crossovers which will put a smile on your face. >mr. propre< is the most technoid of all three tracks, whereas >jazz 2 me< is a bassline monster, with vocalquotes about jazz music stating it as >a state of life<, >something that you live!<. altogether a sexy cool groover! >the melting freak< is the most deep of all three tracks. here you can hear blind minded playing his analogue instruments (also a real 808 drum machine) being funky and cool rather than going for cheap thrills.

prepare to enter the sombrero galaxy. journey to the centre of the sun, the debut release from lovefingers highly anticipated imprint esp institute, is a collaborative effort from londoner jonny nash (discosession) and dutchman tako reyenga. the two met years ago whilst jonny was working and living in tokyo and tako made his way over to dj. around the same time, lovefingers linked up with these two and a musical family had formed. that being told, its only natural for sombrero galaxy to find its home and represent the face of the esp insitute. journey to the centre of the sun is a dive into a moody, visceral and ethereal headspace brought to life through shimmering synthesizers, swirling guitars and a chugging bassline coupled with live percussion, clearly setting the bar higher than the bulk of contemporary electronic music. on the b side, the stallions (lovefingers and lee douglas) reinterpret the track with optimism, nicely complimenting the original with a light and cloudy yet driving house version. this is the music of dreams, keep an eye on esp institute in this new decade.

played by karotte & sven vÄth at timewarp 2010!!! chris wood & meat return from their splash on kindische for another electric package, this time on murmur with backdown ep complete with sascha dive remix. backdown is a truly head-turning release – setting up three takes on one track touching on high-end percussion, brass instrument led melodies and the voiced enquiry – do you want it? this package comes with a dub version and sascha dive remix, each accentuating their own unique take on the original. the original melts with a sumptuous hook within a low end bassline before dropping into a restless trumpet fanfare. sascha dive puts a warm and driving house spin on the track, preparing it for those early moments on the dancefloor whilst the dub is the quirky and more looming take on the original one to keep the bodies moving.

hit the streets slams in from the start with a confident kick drum, using a collection of layered percussive elements and drums (check that cowbell) to create a solid groove. seductive vocal snippets give the track a focus throughout, whilst fritter artfully introduces fresh elements until its resolution. building chords, open hi-hats and a ripping old-school melody reminiscent of warehouse 303s keep boredom at bay. bonza. ridgee didgee steadily courses through deeper realms, again with that killer percussion. here not one but a variety of freaky vocals and playful samples co-habit a densely layered habitat of groove. feral elements are backed up by a driving aboriginal bassline, relentless til a brief half-time reprise. a limited 200 white vinyls are available.

bristol-based kss black records are proud to present their second vinyl release:
a: holdtight ? blackstone ? holdtight make a welcome return with a rollicking slab of lo-fidelity sci-fi drum & bass. a steely backbone of percussion provides the skeleton to which a gut wrenching sub line and precision cyber-bleeps are built. full of atmospherics and stabs blackstone offers up a master class in layering grooves to capture the crowd. this one wont stop until it gets you!
aa: mute ? suspense ? the flip for this fine 12inch features the brothers mute, with a massive debut vinyl release! >suspense< has got skanker written all over it, reminiscent of the days grooverider was dropping adam fs seminal track >metropolis< on dub. modern production values are infused with the sweaty funk of 90?s dancefloor tech. heavily influenced by the sounds of photek and, more recently, break with technical drum programming and a bassline to trouble any bass bin as they looking backwards to move forward. you wont miss it when this tune drops.. bassface time! featuring on baileys 1xtra show several times last year this is not a tune to miss out on. both tracks have been receiving heavy support from bailey, lomax, survival & break.

memoryman is the new alias of uovo, the well known member of the pastaboys. over the past 15 years he has released on labels including irma, defected and renaissance. today sees his first release on tenax recordings, and he debuts with a real house bomb. powerfull bassline, groovy drums and obsessive vocal sample come together perfectly to create a fantastic dancefloor gem. this great track receives a monster of a remix from label head alex neri & federico grazzini.

its still like that: even though digital is everywhere there is still something very special about having your own tracks on a vinyl release. so this is it again: the very best of the last releases on koletzki_s sublabel stil vor talent digital on a double-sided vinyl edition. starting off with two tracks by bruch & junior that couldnt be more different: while >fiesta de la residencia< sounds like somebody threw some spanish vocals and trumpets into a pool of tech-house beats and basslines at a maniac afterhour on the white island (ergo: great),>sunset< is the deeply euphoric sound for the morning after. the synthesizers so crisp and all around you, the beat and bassline so warm and seductive: this is purely magical music that will make you forget when the sun went down or up the last time while still making you want to shake your legs to the strong bassline and chunky loop. hit! on the flip then comes a re-work of a massive hit on stil vor talent: a 2010 version of nicones >una rosa< complete with the original spanish vocals, but a much more grooving loop that turns into an absolute percussion fest. claps turn into effects and we all raise our hands to those reverbed original vocals. last up australian murat kilic with the wonderfully oldskool house anthem >summer traffic<: great melodic pads, a superbly harmonic bassline and when the breakdown kicks in, an ever-indulging xylophon melody. this whole record has got summer written all over it and helps us all get through this icy winter.

taking a look back on the life of nima gorji, one must quote that this man truly is an international freak in music! so who else should be more predestined for releasing on international freakshow than him?! the two tracks nima gorji presents to us on this record define themselves as a crispy, warm and trippy kind of no-shit-techhouse with a twist! sometimes, the title-track is building up its hypnotizing power carefully, bringing the dancers tension to the maximum level! after summer on the flipside shows a proper, strongly & well structured techhouse-beat combined with subtle, deep and warm synth sounds and its bassline is playing games with the spooky vocal samples and effects nima gorji uses as perfect as it gets throughout the whole tune

after appearances in numerous end-of-year charts, raffertie continues to meddle with the dna of uk dance music on two ready made anthems. the more ballistic side of rafferties oeuvre is shown on the blazing >7th dimension< with crushed house beats alloyed to swooping bass wobbles and head searing synths, while the oddly affecting >string theory< should only add to his fanbase with an impressive grasp of bassline dynamics and vintage uk rave atmospherics that doesnt sound like much out there.
