been impressed by his remix on wall of sound... i loved it. i also heard he won some remix competition. like a grammy, only not a grammy. the tracks he sent were amazing... but his hair, while being orange (no bonus) was not corn-rowed. while i argued vigorously that i had worked too long and hard building up turbo to see it go all >ginger<... von party defended the duke, saying it might show how open-minded we are. when i re-listened to the tracks i decided that it was well worth the risk. so.... what you now hold in your hand is the debut on turbo of duke dumont: the mysterious bad ass from the wrong-side of the tube, the hardboiled london underground pioneer who once had to eat a sampler to survive, the future of dance music, and the past of the future of dance music

clectic producer johnny dangerous returns to king st. with yet another esoteric single, only yourself. his unique spoken word vocal stylings are what set him apart from other dance music producers. haunting as they may seem, they penetrate the psyche while the underlying rhythms rev up the body. italian heavy hitting producers, the pasta boys, are on board to give this an effective synthy remix thats perfectly inline with johnnys lexis. edgy, dark, minimal, techy and punchy, their remix gives energy without being overly aggressive. for those who need something a bit lighter, johnny dangerous original mix puts a bit of the funk and soul back into the song with guitar wa was and slapping percussion. theres something incredibly sexy about what johnny dangerous brings into being. is it his voice? his lyrics? his production? whatever it is, its good, and a pasta boys remix to boot? buon apetito

i dont have much to say about the dahlbacks. jesper is one of my best friends, even though he is a serious pain in the ass. john made 6 records in the time it took you to read this sentence....and he just turned 11. every once in a while they take about 40minutes out of their hectic schedule (john stops making records...to make a record, while jesper take s a break from the grueling demands of being a condo association manager) to make a record for turbo. in all honesty i think they give me the tracks they forgot about..... cuz you know if they really loved them they would keep them for their own lame labels. so, instead i leave you with the music. 3 tracks that prove again that somehow, against all odds, when you put cousins in a studio they bring out the best in each other. jespers maverick genius and time-honed wisdom tempers johns youthful passion and naive exuberance.. while johns youngbrain redefines the game and reenergizes the old master. the two cousins locked in a dance that continually blurs the lines between student and teacher, a sonic sibling rivalry a musical match with one clear winner ....you!!

incl. rob acid aka robert babicz mix, after it has been a long time since a record was released on our favourite label fq inside, is it more than time to bring one out…here and now we come with a really fine acid track. it was produced by gabriel fiebelkorn from cologne. thats probably the reason why it was named >burn cologne<…but cologne isn t burning, but for sure the track is – it pumps and pumps and pumps, that it is a really great pleasure to listen to it. it is a very great acid track without being oldschool. the rob acid remix comes along with his typical hypnotic style and flies with you around cologne. close your eyes and enjoy! fantastic!

nice and chunky, keep up doing what you do so wellintroducing deadset: an act that crafts house music in some of its many disguises. the two man team used to do a lot of that, and a little bit of this. before deadset1 and deadset2 came into being, they played in the sandpit with the likes of muse, miss kittin, royksopp, tiefschwarz, justin timberlake, scissor sisters and with labels such as fine, blue fin, souvenir, made to play, wall of sound and tsuba. now they do a lot of this and only a little bit of that. disregarding this, that and the other, their tipping point has arrived… they have also been allowed to play around at the likes of weekend (berlin), panoramabar (berlin), fabric (london), the end (london) and countless other joints. lovingly nurtured, their forthcoming album, keys open doors, is about to be released into the wild from the arms of jesse rose and his front room label. music for now, with an eye on tomorrow, made with sounds of then. deadset 1 is tom mangan. deadset 2 is cass. cass + mangan is dead. long live deadset

remix-package to one of the biggest wir hits. newcoming talent kab shows some severe skills with a tight remix that keeps minilogues hooklines in shape but introduces them to its unique world of magical flow while pulling off the impossible, he creates a masterbuilder being tense and tender at the same time. jichael mackson on the other hand constructs a relaxed groove rich in texture, pushing the sounds further and further until the final climax while tracing the original material rather emotionally then rationally. minilogue themselves round off the package with a beautifully dashed ambient version
