es ist ja nun schon einige zeit her, dass paul kalkbrenner eine single veröffentlicht hat. vier jahre nach dem letzten 12inch release und zwei erfolgreichen alben (berlin calling mit platinstatus und icke wieder mit goldstatus) erscheint mit >das gezabel< eine brandneue single auf seinem eigenen label paul kalkbrenner musik. insbesondere bei den livekonzerten überall in europa wurde paul die nachfrage nach neuer musik immer wieder angetragen. musikalisch macht der neue titel da weiter, wo das >icke wieder< album endete. >das gezabel< ist ein rein instrumentaler elektronischer clubtrack, bei dem paul kalkbrenner wieder einmal die verschmelzung seiner fast schon klassischen beats mit eleganten melodieelementen gelingt.

frucht - only deals with fresh fruits. the berlin label decided to start the 12inch series with 3 remix compilations to give an overview of the labelsound. somewhere between minimal, techno and tech house but always with a club aspiration fruchts >aprikose< is more than a dynamic and powerful dance floor killer: heavy drums, groovy basslines and twisted vocals are perfect for bright open airs as well as for dimmed clubs. labelhead coeter one and his mexican partner splatter are not releasing a specific genre - but smart productions really have to rock the body and soul by the use of outstanding sound-selections and brilliant arrangements. this is what we call >fruity<. are you ready for an exciting future with frucht label?

das elektro-pop duo der stunde, die antientertainers aus berlin, schicken mit >going anywhere< eine schwebend-druckvolle hymne in die umlaufbahn des club-weltenraums, dessen fixsterne die tanzflächen unter freiem himmel flankieren. eine handbreit schwebend über den grashalmen dieser biotope menschlicher entrückung und losgelöstheit. eben mal entspannt auf vierviertel vom pfad des alltags abbiegen und karges grau in grau tauschen gegen blühende landschaften, dort wo pop-charme in der stimme und an minimalem house und elektro geschulte clubrhythmik sich die hände reichen.

a man, a word!that occurs to his friends,if somemone asks them for toby monte montana. but not only that, but still much more… he produced own tracks for the first time, together with tobias luetzenkirchen with project names e.g. luxor & montana, luetzenkirchen & toby montana or bully boys. one of his further production partners is his homie dan caster from berlin. in this great ep you can listen his long experience as dj, promoter and producer.all in one together a big techhouse vinyl with pure emotions.

sonar kollektivs inclination towards dubbed out pop/dance music is definitely no secret (see fat freddys drop or eva be). but with this brand new 7inch the berlin label hits the nail on the head. chicago-born jeremy sole is one of the program selectors at renowed la radio station kcrw and hosts a weekly party in santa monica where he blends afrobeat, funk, reggae, latin, brazilian and everything else under the sun!

new swedish label from >dont recordings< artist, boner m. limited pressing. classy mid-90s style techno, antsinplot takes you on a ride without compromise into the realms of techno. harsh sounds and stuttered riffs unfold over super-kicking beats. this is real raw techno with the punkest of attitudes and of the ilk that would have sat (un)comfortably on seminal techno labels such as subhead, dj hyperactives contact, tim taylors missile or indeed any label that released hard techno built for dark strobe-lit warehouses during the 90s. this is the techno that rocks underground bunkers in berlin, london, sao paulo and all around the world but remains untarnished by commercial interference... alive with attitude and real analogue fuzz, antsinplot 001 is co-produced by boner m whose monster record zoidar released last year on dont recordings, found its way into the box of ben sims amongst other leading techno tastemakers.

the nice plangent label comes with catalogue number 4. recondite delivers some lush tracks that fuse laidback beats and low key melodies with raw structures, a persistent drive and pressure. plangent records slowly becomes the face for the otherside of berlin techno together with a label such as giegling. lovely release!! dont sleep!

foreign sunrises are always inspiring an artist. festival gigs with amazing music and extraordinary people making you feel the real magic of electronic music. einmusik packed all those things and made a dreamy and mysterious ep called >damgala<. only two tracks coming up, but they are special and wistful - nothing more is left to say about the feelings of an artist traveling all over the world since months. >damgala< itself is a song with unsettling synths, an undulating baseline and rolling drums. the breaks are so strong and suprising and you will never forget this sensuous chorus. >st.anna< is the second number on the ep. it is made by mars leder and einmusik. they meet each other on several parties in berlin. mars, a young and talented dj also plays a lot of instruments and so they made a studio session with different sequences. the guitar is clear and melancholic, the synths are soft and the bass is catching you. close your eyes and feel the song without being prejudiced by some words.

anonymous production unit szare return with three fresh cuts for manchesters mindset records. critically acclaimed releases for the equally shadowy horizontal ground imprint, bristols idle hands and the berlin based krill music amongst others have seen szare embed themselves firmly in the techno landscape, finding a receptive audience for their unique blend of bass heavy, tribal dissonance or in their own words, sounds that are eerie, lazy and chewy.

this single-side vinyl, pressed in 100 cps limited edition, is the happy ending of one of the most played tracks from our friends djs and strictly grooves followers. >sweet pussy pauline< is a classic, an hit that increases over the time, in months of gigs between berlin and reggio emilia, london and garda lake. our job is to make good music and share it with those who appreciate it, but this time we have done much more, because sweet pussy pauline has become a true piece of art in the hands of tatiana festi, who designed directly on record, label to label, 100 unique pieces. tatiana is a very renowed artist, becoming bigger and bigger thanks to her brilliant style, its creatures, its sensual girls, with languid eyes and provoking mouths. and though in acid colors, bright and pop, painted with a meticulous technique and surprising signs of felt pen, all have something of the femme fatale and at the same time, victims of love.

rivulet records ist ein junges vinyl-label, welches sich zwischen leipzig und berlin bewegt. der zusammenschluss mehrerer junger djs und veranstalter hat es sich zur aufgabe gemacht, jungen, talentierten und relativ unbekannten künstlern, fernab von der mp3-flut im internet, eine plattform zu bieten, um ihre musik zu veröffentlichen. momo ist ein 22 jähriger dj und produzent aus berlin. geboren in der stadt, die niemals schläft, wurde er sehr früh ins berliner nachtleben geworfen. fasziniert von den kontrasten dieser welt zwischen euphorie und selbstzerstörung, begann er schnell, seine eigene interpretation von techno und house zu kreieren. wesentlich beeinflusst von nicht elektronischer musik, haben seine sets und tracks immer einen sehr emotionalen einschlag und gehen nicht darin auf, tools für den dancefloor zu sein, sondern erschaffen einen sound, der einen bis in die morgenstunden verfolgt.seit 2012 gehört momo fest zum label rivulet, und stellt mit >one of these mornings< sein erstes offizielles release.

as an increasing number of the british producers turn to techno as a source of inspiration, the gritty sound of the uk underground is easily obscured by the polished veneer of continental 4/4 music.
having taken his time to emerge from the shadows, paleman has constructed a musical voice for himself which turns this conundrum on its head by reimagining the skeletal drums and gutteral growls of early dubstep and speed garage as a style of uk techno all of his own. for this youngster, berlin is more of a startpoint than a destination. at only 19, he joins the ever growing base of manchester-based techno producers as the first signing to fulcrum records, a new label started in south manchester by friends sam schorb (aka damu) and adam rogerson.

maeve is the new label from man of the moment mano le tough & his friend since the schoolyard the drifter. in an age of endless releases and labels maeve aims to release beautiful, special records that will last in the hearts of the public. maeve 01 comes from the enigmatic baikal. a berlin-based friend of both mano and the drifter, his unreleased material inspired the pair to launch the label. following huge responses worldwide in manos dj sets over the past few months, the duo are very proud to be releasing these tracks on their new imprint. the drifter provides guest vocals on >just you and me<, which is a tripped out banger in the best possible meaning of the word. the other side of the record might actually prove to be the hit, >why dont ya?< is a deep psychedelic masterpiece. the breakdown reaches a point that is both transcendent and captivating. there is clearly the work of a master.

the dawn ep is the debut release of markey alias sander markey. who recently settled down in berlin, after he was living and working as dj and producer in gent, belgium. now he comes up with four really playful tracks. here he shows his affection for funky grooves and soulful voices. with support from mz. sunday luv, who gave her voice for a freaky intermezzo on dawn, the ep starts offensively. the repetitive groove and the marching 303 bass drum toped with a dark demanding voice have a mystic massage. as contradiction to it you hear a charming dirty string ensemble and an odd delayed snare crushing the monotony. spring break as well as in the shade, the last made in coop with robyns alias yannick robyns, have definitely the warmer funky attitude. playing around with a bobby mcferrin vocal sample and bringing out the soul. facing the clouds is closing the ep as rather melodic and atmospheric track.

after ushering in a raft of releases from top talent over the last year that turned quite a few heads, we over here at thema thought it was time to assert our own opinions a bit more forcefully. we certainly appreciate all the support we garnered from the detroit drops courtesy of norm and terrence, and sliding over to the smallville end of the spectrum with rau and suburb certainly didnt lose the thread either. sometimes its easy to build a vibe on the backs of others rather than on simple merit though… with that in mind we have taken our own path since then, and the recent successes from beaner and laurine frost stand alone as the accolades keep rolling in. continuing on our outbound trajectory, we present the solo vinyl debut of gathaspar, the mysterious polish producer who has been making noise mostly in berlin and to the east.
