the revitalized moton records inc continues to impress and inspire us with amazing, undiscovered music. despite being launched in the early nineties, the label have only released just over 20 records. a co operative effort between djs diesel, harvey, faiths dave jarvis and ashley beedle, this label has expertly amended and extended many and undiscovered, lost classics. as passionate afficionados and music lovers, their selections for the moton treatment are always dealt with respectfully, and released in super limited quantities, hence the crazy prices they reach in the second hand market! this expertly crafted trio of cuts is right up there with their best ever releases. from incredible vintage soul to priceless soulful disco, the moton biys have unearthed yet more buried treasure for your listening pleasure the quality is off the scale, the pressing is a one off - you know what to do!

the model is no stranger to gigolo, and we (the royal we) are no strangers to the model. as a supporter of gigolo records, you, our fated reader, should be familiar with our protagonist previous gigolo adventure. but in the words of the late george harrison, >all things must pass< and with this in mind we would like to reintroduce...
the model doesnt just have his own sound, he has in fact attempted to engineer his own genre: dark-techno-baroque. the sound has been crafted through a penchant for aristocratic mannerisms and a passion for high fashion and low fetish. it also happens to pretty succinctly sum up part of his unique personality. set against a backdrop of refined charm, there s an underbelly of something dark and brutal, which is possibly the best way to describe the a-side >in the night<. in many ways this could be seen as a return to form for gigolo, immediately poppy but structured as a classic song with haunting vocals underpinned with a driving techno rhythm. to further consolidate the techno aesthetic look no further then >flex on the b-side and you have a pounding track that could have been played by daft punk in 96 and will probably find a home with a diverse selection of djs today.
the >vampire funk ep< is the first release from the models forthcoming album on gigolo. the concept is in the same vain, but delves deeper into the dark-side of the model. exploring his fetish with the night and creatures that occupy its opulent corridors. like classic transylvanian tales the music from this album will present details that set the mood and composition to create tracks with narrative regardless of lyrics or words. the result being music that moves both bodies and minds and stirs the blood. as pretentious as this sounds the author of this mindless scrap of paper has the fortunate privilege of speaking from experience. as the mind that moves the hands that moves the keyboard is the mind that is being moved by the music as i type and you read. so we are already part way there. the rest will unfold in the coming months.

andré decided spontaneously to record fresh material especially for the label, more than 6 months before our fi rst release. this says a lot about the common trust that was born that day, much before the hype surrounding the man. the result of this saw the light some weeks later in the form of vehemence of silence, a track of indeniable power which breathes long years of djing & berlin afterhours as much as uncovering close impressions of andré’s emotional outcome. this is what made me feel that track like a whisper to my body & soul and what makes me so proud to release it today… more than 10 months down the line, andré improved it, tested it on the fl oor till a fi nal club listening session in the middle of the berghain dancefl oor where we both knew it was ready to be shared… this special track needed of course outstanding alternative perspectives and it didnt take me long to propose my old friend danilo plessow amongst andrés favorites to give it his magic : motor city drum ensembles version translates an unexpected techno jam reminiscent of the best early soma days. the ep is completed by a second original called dark edge, a sophisticated & raw deep house joint. a&r and words by dairmount

supported by gildas (kitsune), les inrockupitbles (fr), discodust & more!! jupiter are based in paris. the boy/girl duo have recently moved there from london where they met on an empty dancefloor. it must have been fate (or their love for retro hits) that brought them together to write songs so deeply rooted in times when prince was still known and glitter wasnt a taboo. quarles and amÚlie are part french (the romance in their music!), part english (the lyrics!) but get along pretty well. their songwriting and production clearly takes the best of both worlds, earning them appraisal and appreciation of the valerie family. the song starlighter has been getting a lot of attention in the blogosphere and grew to become an underground hit since it was first leaked. its catchy, its dreamy, its sticky and its sweet. now, after official remixes for metronomy and chew lips, jupiter are preparing their first ep, which is to be released in september 2009, containing remixes by thai pop sensation cyndi seui and steve moore (the man behind lovelock and zombi). get ready for sheer bliss

techno at his best .. great remixpack from deetron -- what a bass and jay haze ... fresh techno so wirds gemacht toll

marquese, best known for his hit >keep movin< on la pena, has released an outstanding record on niveous proving yet again his talent for dancefloor and deepness. let the weekend begin! >weekend you!< is an excellent tool with a massive kick stomping over a landscape of powerful percussions and repetitive sounds. >la musica< (dawn mix) takes a different path. unique moments emerge as piano, choir and atmospheres move to the same groove, sometimes unfolding more obviously, sometimes more subtle.

beep beep beep. remix remix remix!
on the a-side, the loco dice dub is a perfect set-builder, one of his best remixes to date. purist loco fans might also be happy to hear that tigas vocal has been 99% extracted from this version, leaving behind only the echo of disco-pop in a solid, dj-friendly groove.
kaines mix keeps things closer to the original, emphasizing the pop punch-lines with staccato beeps and a chunky beat. positive vibes here from a bright young uk producer.
finally, space-disco maestros emperor machine turn in another epic roller complete with a brilliant analog synth jam finale.
great job!

orlando riva sound (commonly abbreviated as o.r.s.) was a german group founded in 1977 by anthony monn and rainer pietsch. they released this seminal and hard to come by disco album body to body in 1978, which gets a timely reissue. the a side contains 2 of the best disco boogie tracks ever made in the shape of body to body boogie and moon boots. these versions differ from those compiled on the original ariola pressing, as they have been mixed and extended by disco legends bobby dj guttadaro and tom moulton respectively. the flipside contains another rolling deep soulful nugget sweet release (again mixed by bobby dj guttadaro), the heavy driving funk bomb disc mussorgsky, plus the sci fi freak out of dream machine. all killer no filler.

>i m that alley< is the new single from south african shock-poppers sweat.x. it comes as they embark on their two month european tour and is a taste of their forthcoming album >187<. >i m that alley< is a departure from vocalist spoek mathambos hyper-surreal rap style, and, together with markus wormstorms finely designed production, is a modern take on the classic synthpop love song. accompanying the title track is >the knife<, a freaked peek into the world of sweat.x, a favourite of their live shows, it finally gets released here. third track on the single is a remix of >i m that alley< by new york-based mike slott. slott has been making waves with his work as one half of heralds of change and this remix is his best work to date and is already being used to close out his live set. the release also includes instrumental versions of >the knife< and >i m that alley< for maximum club efficiency!

limited repress of the sought after cult track >floatation tank<, originally released on the sampler of the planet delsin compilation back in 2005.on the flip youll find a fully re-mastered version of d5s own all time favourite personal track >intruders<. both examples hes the best in spaced out electronic music!

hot new remixes by electric indigo, mutron and akiko kiyama. moonraker has become an ep that is among the best house music has brought us last year. (mix mag). the original house mix, which is a deliciously nasty reflection of the outfits sinister electrohouse sound. the rather minimal introduction is soon enough spiced up with a clash of synths that sound industrial and melancholic at the same time, thereby creating a dreamy and utterly brilliant vibe as spacey as spacey can be. it s proggy, it s electro, it s on the edge of deep house too, but above all, it s absolutely amazing. frank muellers america mix takes care of the final remix with a more uptempo and more towards progressive club rocker featuring brilliantly sampled vox, shifting synths and lots of deep sound waves. whereas the previous two tunes engage on a hypnotic trip, this one shoots the listener even further beyond the stars right into the unknown depths of space. the uptempo rhythm is what makes this track an absolute insane piece of progressive/deep house music, and therefore a definite must-have. you simply can not afford to let this ep pass you by. 365 mags absolute number one ep of this autumn, and unlikely to be bettered this year.

taken from the pagliaccio album on moodmusic, filippo moscatello gets the remix treatment from his favourite house heads in the circuit.. quarion rocks houz into a frenzy of stabbing, jacking and deep bass for the full flavoured floor experience, indeed one of his best remixed to date and thats saying something. dirt crew hooligan and old school house head on his own, james flavour takes kleinmond on a trip to nyc about 1993 and slabs phat beats coupled with his trademark stabby keys and the one-note bassline to a late night belter. last but not least trickski shows their genuine talent in transforming houz to a peak-hour sub-120 groover, with live piano and a great chicago inspired groove that makes you yearn for more

amazing classic deep house !!! old skool at it best !!

following on from last years critically acclaimed my occupation compilation on tirk recordings witch featured the best of chaz jankels club orientated output i come alive is a gorgeous summertime house tune constructed and executed by one of the uks greatest musical talents.i come alive features vocal contributions from natalia scott (mc tali), also included in this oustanding package is a storming remix on the b side from yam who?

another two choice cuts of voorn at his best. taking oldskool samples and sensibilities, and matching them with new school muscle, he presents the incredible chase the mouse and we re all clean.

here we go with the new defrag from our brazilian friend gui boratto. >i feel love< is one of those very special records that goes far and further from the boring trends of the moment. as we like to say it is a timeless techno tune, an open air magik track with vibrant pads full of synthetic feelings and processed voice that reminds the best moments of the disco from the 80s or, if you prefer, as our friends at kompakt, you can define it: elegant techno.

lost for 30 years - unreleased masterpieces by disco legend patrick cowley and indoor life singer jorge socarras - remixed by morgan geist (metro area) & kink (rush hour)! first single from the forthcoming album “catholic” by patrick cowley & jorge socarras. “soon” is a dark proto-techno track with hypnotic lyrics and warped synths, while “robot children” builds on a rigid sequencer bassline and futuristic sounddesign. these masterpieces were lost for 30 years and get released for the very first time! the first remix comes from no one less than metro area’s morgan geist - and it’s arguably one of his best mixes to date. responsible for environ’s unclassics series, he certainly was the first call for the job. his rework transforms cowley’s trademark production sound into 2009, respectful for authenticity and forward thinking at the same time. rush hour’s kink has turned heads with his incredible production skills and live appearances. his remix of “soon , derived from the original’s drum machine sounds, catapults the track to the future. bass heavy with a rugged beat, this is one to cross boundaries from techno to dubstep to experimental!

zuckerwatte is the second single from oliver koletzkis new album >großstadtmärchen<. and zuckerwatte, which translates as candyfloss is a truly magical tale about love and loss in the big city. the original features juli holzs softly whispering voice that is so very fragile, and so very beautiful. this is a softly grooving electro-pop discovery. but of course this song has also been transformed for the dancefloor on this single that also features two more tracks from olivers album. first up is the remix by david august, one half of the duo august & bachert who delivers a top-notch glitchy tech-house edit that makes great dramaturgical use of the original track. next up is björn störigs vision of zuckerwatte. the drummer of olivers live outfit the koletzkis envisions juli holz perform her sweet and sticky singing over some neo-soul tech-rnb influenced electronica that features a spanish guitar, some great claps and some very nice synthesizers. on the flip there is koletzkis instrumental house-homage kusskompatibel and these habits, on which only seventeen-year-old singer pyur makes her debut. she sings wonderfully harmonic over this down-beat trip-hop groove and it results in a great hit for the late summer. this single is more than a single. its the best thing before the album

a welcome return for 2 house heavyweights swing city & bossman mr grant nelson back to his best with this bomb think along the lines of jabres epic swimming places

dave huismans aka 2562 with his a made up sound project. archive contains four raw house tracks from the vaults with their roots in detroit and chicago house. æbounceÆ and ædisconnectÆ combine the best of two worlds: the more traditional sample based house grooves and the spacious sounds and wrenching sub bass that have become his trademark. the same goes for the other two tracks... æwireÆ is a phat acid track with a great drive. a strange atmosphere and a unique combination of classic structures with new and old sounds. this track will make sure that the sweat is dripping off those basement walls! æon&onÆ has that catchy drunken beat slightly reminding of some theo parrish productions... finished with futuristic technoid synth stabs and pulsating acid-ish bass sounds that make this a great abstract & stripped-down house work out! killer!

this is driving epic banging body shaking techno with soul that reminds of the good old techno days married with sounds of today. a great crossover appear for tech trance and techno sets. just a word for each: simian: manic thunderous punkish techno with attitude, collider: cool rockish bassline and amazing atmosphere. tiburon: organ rave sounds used in it and the small melody playing that gives it a spicey edge. and finally the best: particle with the spanish guitar sample that drives along with a lovely break that adds to the tension of it. this can become an ibiza favorite and you can see people like r.rivera or h.cataneo playing it as well.

two of turbo s rising stars come together to make one of the biggest records of the year. peanuts club has been arguably the hottest track of the summer for heavyweight djs erol alkan, tiga, and a-trak. it s instantly catchy and massively effective, and we ve seen it bring the best out of the crowd night after night, but you probably already know all about it. the real coup here is that cajou club is another absolute bomb, maybe even better than peanuts club, and more disturbing evidence that france has produced yet another two major-league players in dance music. noob s really been hitting his stride lately, following on terrific remixes for brodinski and d.i.m. and tai s lyposuct, his productions getting exponentially bigger with each release. as for brodi, anyone that s seen him play knows he has all the makings of a star, and if he can keep putting out records this good, the sky s the limit! wanting to go beyond double-megahit and attempt quad-bomb status, we commissioned a terrific remix from sound pellegrino s renaissance man. noob & brodi are in love with it, plus they re the only finns out there to have not produced a record for turbo, so it was a perfect fit. the ph 0 remix on the vinyl is, incredibly, an original take on acid, it s loopy and weird, but works like magic.

after almost 2 years without publishing new material. the label properproud reappears with this ep limited to 250 copies. the owners of the label santi and roger (strange connection) have worked very hard to remind everyone with this record that the electro-techno and ebm will not die ever! this time, properproud back with more force and with the intention of staying forever. closing mouths includes 4 tracks of 4 major artists and the name isn t coincidental. it s time to shut many mouths that don t rely on this kind of music the first one closing mouths (a1) has been signed by the owners of the label (strange connection) is the first time published in properproud. a track of pure ebm, dark and evil but with great force and which has received great support from artists like angel molina and dave clarke who has played several times in his white noise radio show. the second one hurt me (a2) has been signed by jonathann cast in collaboration with the voices of drey. after publishing in dancefloor killers come to properproud and do it in a forceful and dark track that can move any dance floor. bluntly electro-techno and without mercy! on b side, we find 2 of the best signings he has made during that properproud parentheses. in the first cut (b1) adriano canzian, currently one of the most bizarre techno artists, with halim the dream shows because david carretta and dj hell is set in it. a brutal track, direct and intended to enjoy it in a club. dave clarke has supported it without hesitation. and to finish off the ep, ruben montesco (b2), after his passage through lasergun and other labels turn to properproud to demonstrate in madrid that also makes good techno and ebm. insomniac s red room is a dark track, evil but with a lot of energy and a perfect voice. rubÚn besides being a great friend and supporter of properproud is undoubtedly one of the best producers of this style at national level. 4 tracks that shape a piece of craft for lovers of brazen sounds and is the first of a series of 12 inch that will see the light soon and will be limited to 250 copies. properproud is back .... stop the minimal. use your brain!

with this new ep tom clark makes an impressive return to the highgrade release program. following a collaboration with marcus schatz and most recently with benno blome, he now comes back as a solo artist. after only a few beats, you’ll be sure to recognise his signature sound. tom needs surprisingly few elements to build a unique atmosphere and his matchless grooves. on the title track “scorpio“ we find a deep, rolling bassline and a slightly orientally influenced vocal, combined with the typically unique clarkish synth leads, and we’re ready to go. it’s a track that continually keeps the excitement moving while never letting the cat out of the bag, and more than deserves the a-side. then we come to “albino“, also featuring sparkling synths and rolling drums that create an impression of fluidity and an unhurried beginnings, but we also end up in a waterfall… who would have known!? in conclusion comes “sand flea“, as lively as a box of fleas, but not nearly as aggrivating! mister clark is again at his best, with a love for detail, an innate sence for strange sounds and an a significant quantity of leisurely energy, this tune also really hits the mark. this is not the work of a newbie who produces an aggressive sound to prove his talents. the result is the feature of this ep: seldom has an understatement sounded so fresh. + digital-only bonus track “12 notes“!

now techno has its own fair trade. basmati, the new label by gabriel ananda (artist direction) and marcel janovsky (management), does not indulge in pretentious bragging. in fact, its not even supposed to have a release sheet like this one. but sometimes, youre even too modest to stay away. so, whats it all about? well, the music, of course. and only the music. organic stuff, so to speak. tracks made by pure immersion. no plans, no blueprints. just going with the flow, unleashing the inner krautrock while staying true to the basics of techno. gabriel and friends at their best. inhale

the spanish duo exium attacks again, and this time they are not alone. contributing a remix of the original track the omega man , the dutch duo radial add their special touch of today s techno with a style reminiscent of the best hits from the 90s. this 12 disc closes with exium s remix of dominik muller s silesian boy . the original track was released on the british label locked records, and it can already be heard in sets of artists like surgeon and rob hall.

2003 release by rotterdam based duo duplex, combining the best of detroit and deep house.
