alphahouse welcomes kai to the family, with the dazzling 3-track ep >gakuon< his debut release came last year on portables sud electronic label, and put him on our ones-to-watch list. now kai delivers his second ep and its a killer. with so much music in the world following the same patterns, and producers sucked into using the same cheap tricks in the studio, its refreshing to hear that some people out there are still capable of independent and abstract thought. we hope you agree. >ac< is a mutant deep techno piece equally suitable for dark club mayhem as it is for sunday brunch with the in-laws. seriously, try it out at both places and if it doesnt work the next beer is on us. >spacetravel< is exactly that. a micro-sampled ride though the cosmos. tiny vocal spurts and playful melodies surround a throbbing bassline. stripped just to the groove and not over-arranged, theres plenty of room to let your imagination roam free. >gravity< is one of those special inside tracks that we search so long and hard for. delightfully simplistic, yet incredibly groovy. its amazing how much you can do with a few well-placed sounds, isnt it?

introduced by james holden, lucy (curle rec) is a new italian talent based in paris. and he comes up here with a very strong release! on the a side, the amazing glass computer (co-prooduced with friends) is an odyssey into electronic music and catchy beat. 7 minutes of happiness and emotion for the crowd. after his wonderful last release on our label, masaya (perspectiv / num rec) makes the dub and he looks like a trip into a deep forest with his minimal tribal bassline, trought the tree at the night. simply wonderful. on the flip side the amsterdam based mark august (poker flat, connaisseur, curle, mezzotinto), is making one of the best remix for ages. with his unique touch mark takes us by the hand into his very personal universe…

its been a productive month for the mood ii swing boys. the follow up to last months passing time, a collaboration with vocalist lauren, is a fantastically deep disco record that moves and shakes along with the best of them. the bouncy, wobbling bassline of the main mix simply demands to be grooved to, while laurens husky vocal glides along the airy pads and cheeky synth stabs. the dub foregoes the bassline of the original, opting instead for a more top heavy sound and taking the record in a pleasantly techy direction

uk vets rhythm plate (winding road, flat & round) pop up on the hudd traxx imprint with a sweet three tracker of deep and sultry grooves with a smooth late night bump for the dancefloor. impeccable production throughout this ep, with inside me featuring some vocals from astral t over lots of soft key stabs and a jumbo analog bassline.very snappy blue 6 vibe here. on the flip, keep moving breaks out the rhodes fora bouncy, jazzy deep house affair. close things out with theaptly titled techy thump, a more uptempo bouncer that ll work nicely for the jimpster and freerange heads. top shelf deep house without the clichts for the heads

who needs an obtrusively acting kickdrum, when the decent wobbling bassline of breezin does the job just as good. right nobody. or, at least peter grummich (shitkatapult/ spectral/kompakt) doesnt, whose proverbial deepness constantly gets the floors into rapturous body rolling. thus it was just a question of time to welcome this man to karloff, the label for everything thats different. here, all medium dated orientation to felt (rather than experienced) standards is gladly left to other persons of great hope, whilst enjoying the border crossing between dorky monkeyshine and serious spirit of adventure. consequently, quick thinking misbehaviour is also the attitude of the (for formal reasons called) b side, where the horizon gets canvassed for both weird and life affirming sounds, in grasp of the groove. summarizing dance music to breathe deeply.

the cadenza boys in full effect! andomat 3000 & jans first offering for morris audio is a 2-track monster. >emovere< is a dubby peak time track, combining fat rhythms, catchy melodies and great breakdowns, and even manages to keep a deep edge! its the perfect openair track, the perfect rave track, the perfect club track! check the flip for another superb piece of music. >microemotion<, a loopy workout with a sexy bassline for the freakier moments of a set!

quentin harris does it again, this time with the wonderful jill scott. >hate on me< is a gospel style vocal layered over a dope backing track that really hooks you in, tuned down congas, a stomping beat and a sick minimal bassline, basically this will kill it peak time in the club, women will love you for playing this record. over on b the vocals get majoritively removed on the >shelter dub< which does what it says on the tin

joey returns to his own jackin tracks imprint for a lovely 4 tracker, this time re-releasing two of his classic tracks and showcasing two new ones. for anybody who may have missed it, joeys >sunrise ep< on freaked records uk came out in 2004 and was widely regarded as one of the best records in his discography. the standout was >memories< featured here beautifully remastered on a1. it has since become a house classic, and also a very hard-to-find record. on a2 is >the devils groove<, a twisted cut perfect for those drugged out moments at 5 am in a very dark room. flip for b1s >country life,< nice dancefloor-aimed material with a massive bassline and soulful male vocals, this one was surely inspired by derrick carter and achieves that sound perfectly! and lastly is >45 funk< – the full a-side track on the original freaked release - old-school youngman sound, undeniably funky with a wicked keyboard solo thrown in for good measure

get down on it! the next essential release from deep factor. a hook filled track with a seriously heavy bassline underpinning a blend of house, soul and jazz to make one of the biggest disco/house hits of the year so far. the original written by womack and womack performed by the legendary songstress millie jackson

main tune here is >love fantasy<, a deep and soulful house track featuring lush vocals from sophia ripley. the song is filled with organic sounds and exquisite melodies alongside warm rhodes which will warm up those heart strings as well as any dancefloor. rondenion takes it a step deeper with his trademark chunky four four beats, chopped up jazzy rhodes and a beautiful bouncy bassline which compliments stabs of the original vocal that drift throughout. anyone that is into the theo parrish, omar s or the detroit sound will love this japanese take on the deep house genre

support from claude von stroke, tiefschwarz, ricardo villalobos, laurent garnier, steve lawler, radioslave, sebo k, ripperton, misstress de funk (radio 1), kiki, xpress 2, guy gerber… this is the second part of the >three arches ep< from freak n chic and cocoon star david k. the deep and dub mixes were made with the afterparty in mind and centre around a low slung bassline, hypnotic groove and a tripped out melody. in david s words >this is one my favourite productions this year fusing the best elements of deep house and techno – i love to play these tracks<. samim ups the ante and delivers a killer club mix, adding a heavier bottom end and old skool riff whilst maintaining the dubby vibe of the original. one of his best mixes yet! an essential tsuba release.

einmaleins 24 adds a new artist on the roaster! remute (denis karimani) enters the series of releases along with young talented ion ludwig (alphahouse / underline) remix that has been doing a great work lately.the original track is characterised by crunchy sounds and deep bassline, turning and twisting all the time keeping the groove all 7min long.the remix work maintens the original sounds but goes into more dark paths,with liquid underground synths and peaking up in groove drive. both sides killers

yes! format b are finally back with their second release on stil vor talent. after massive tracks on opposum and highgrade rec, their newest ep on stil vor talent is another huge minimal monster. kongo time is typical for the two berliners: a flickery percussive loop with some stretched out effect envelopes over a wobbly drum n bass style bassline place this track between freaky rave and minimal chic. its definitely going to make you trip out for sure! on the flip its the funky mondo time that builds up over some cuts and bleeps until it leads the listener into pure euphoria when the simple loop kicks in. a huge organic subbass and some chopped-up vocal sample add the funk to this delirious minimal hit and when it comes to minute 4:00 you really won t be able to hold your feet still. format b are at the top of their game and we are so happy to have them!

whilst their debut release i like you is still causing havoc on near by dancefloors, shimon & nixon are proving themselves a force to be reckoned with! the burbling bass of around the edge is destined for sun soaked dancefloors and homegrown festival tents alike. shimons junglist influences are evident, minimal keys sit atop warped synth lines and atmospheric vocals. whitenoise is more the instant club banger, taking a trip to the darker reaches. the omnipotent bassline pulsates its way into your brain and builds to a powerful breakdown then bashing its way back to the jugular

the 2nd part of the >the life we choose< album series starts with >who you gonna call?< the track is built on a melodic 303 acid line, which, followed by two more 303s, results in a complete acid trip. >the life we choose< is compelling, with its 117 bpm electro-groove, strong bassline combined with a hypnotic acid line, right up to the triumphant string finale. >itz ok (club mix)<: sombre, expressive vocals mixed with acid beats make one thoughtful, despite enjoying the whole package in a >hardfloor will survive< club mix! attention! full album cover comes with part 3!
