berlin techno was the big thing over the last years, but you might know that in german cites like hamburg and munich there is a huge growing experimental house scene. hamburgs diynamic records crew or munich artists such as sascha sibler (innervisions) or cocolores (exploited) are equally well respected as the big names from berlin. one of the fresh new labels is toy tonics from munich and the raising stars of the labels are rhode & brown.

nobody can deny the fact that vilnius in lithuania is currently a very creative and agile place. first and foremost mario basanov of course, whose ten walls moniker swept the board last year and whose hype seems to have only just started. his popularity was heightened by the start of his own label boso. it took off with the highly praised -walking with elephants-, which was already one of the biggest tunes of this summer, before it even came out. the second release is by few nolder, another highly talented native from vilnius, who showed frst signs of life on connaisseur with his lovely tune -space espace- on our last edition of livingroom techno as well as with his remix for -canto d amore- by marco effe & francesco carone. -clouds- is the name of his boso release, and it looks to be the next big thing for this young label. for his frst own release on connaisseur he delivered -if-.the fact that it is different from his other output is why we have decided to present this tune in two versions as a 10- vinyl-only single. the original is a summerish and catchy house cut with a bouncy bassline and a slightly uk-approach.this tune makes you move without there being much you can do about it. the alt version goes deeper, building up with a question/answer theme until a strong, driving piano element joins to complete the track. lovers of older pokerflat releases will truly enjoy this version.

that man, craig mcnamara aka last magpie, is proving a popular choice round here at hypercolour/losing suki hq. with various eps and remixes for both our labels, it s also rubbed off on some of our artists too, with the likes of maya jane coles being a big supporter (getting a last magpie re-rub of her everything track on her new label i/am/me). his always on point blend of genres, from bumpin garage kissed house to hardcore bass monsters mark him out as a very versatile producer, and on the she won t let ep, the magpie once again spreads his wings over four cuts.

bright sounds present their third release, from paris-based producer shlømo - owner of kindred spirit label taapion. having made a big impression in late-2013 with taapion s debut release the harvest ep (featuring conforce and stephen brown remixes), shlømo now presents his second full solo ep: rechaïm explores similar sonic textures to those found on taapion and bright sounds releases so far - a richly layered and dense world of dub techno atmospherics with dancefloor versatility. the four tracks all allow for different aspects of shlømo s exemplary production skill to shine through, marking the producer alongside bright sounds owner and fellow parisian as producers and a&r talents to keep close watch of.

no artificial colours have been busy. the south east london duo lewis wright and ryan ellis have been name checked by everyone from maya jane coles and jamie jones to cyril hahn and paul woolford and legends such as kerri chandler. following their recent smash for pmr *reach for me* (feat. alex mills) no artificial colours are back with a late night ep for kerri chandlers madtech records.
the menace ep sums up everything that is exciting about the no artificial colours sound: raw, soulful, rooted in classic garage and house, big room party vibes with underground cool, it is no surprise to see the pair have been highly lauded by the likes of pitchfork, vice, i-d and fact of late.

2014 repress as vinyl !!! this track was originally released on delsin sub label, ann aimee, and sold out within no time. its been in demand ever since so here it is complimented by a huge remix from marcel dettmann (mdr)....big one.

usually found in partnership with blocks on their own narratives imprint, here we find escher flying solo with two beautifully contrasting compositions. deep architecture has already been causing a big stir online due to its wild time signature and off-beat percussive patterns. physically its drum & bass, but mentally its most definitely techno as it pummels with loopy drum insistency. spirit bounce, meanwhile, is a stark and breezy stepper that oozes space and shimmers with emotive synths. its a simple but soulful synthesis many have attempted over the year but only few have mastered... klute, marcus intalex and now escher, too. the return of 31 has been one of d&bs best stories so far this year.

after his big success with waehlscheibe 003, p. laoss returns on the swiss label with another dub house masterpiece. the german producer has once more switched on his reverb and delay gear and created a wonderful record full of fluffy chords, gentle pads and heavy basses. >rephrasing dub<, >i dont care< and >never though< all display the mans musical mastery in terms of harmony, variety and dramatic expression. in his remix of >i dont care<, federsen from san francisco has taken the crispy deep original and turned it into a broken beat stunner brimming with dubby crackles, noises and delays – all created with his analogue machines. as always all tracks have been mastered by above smoke at the hole of dub studio.

limited 2014 repress for this ideal audio anthem, must have ! big with: dubfire, timo maas, stephan bodzin, loco dice, väth, fergie, laurent garnier, steve lawler, style of eye, tocadisco, sander kleinenberg

this 5th release consists of three tracks made by the twin duo manic brothers, one edited by petter b. they have during their relativity short career proven themselves as worthy keepers of the swedish techno heritage with big releases on drumcode a.o. what they bring to bond on this release is their signature big room sound but with a much more simplified approach than previously heard. on the a-side there are two great tool tracks with lots of space for creative interpretation for a dj. on the flip there are a long and epic track with a massive vocal breakdown. groove based but yet with a big and strong hook.

after blazing trails with his debut longplayer exits and wowing the sceptical chat rooms with his all-hardware boiler room blow out, the north country bit smasher returns. the iiva ep is mini album of experiments, re-animations and rebirths. like dr herbert west with a hypo of fluro-serum loops haunt plunges elbow deep into his hardrives sonic corpses unleashing an army of weaponised soundscapes. unlike its big brother exits, iiva sets an immediate agenda, drums burst through fizzing tape hiss and field recorded found sounds are given urgency and purpose. along with an army of hooded mystery collaborators pans nhk even joins the fray with a radiophonic technoid rerub of iiva. all action.

london based producer io sounds has been making big shapes in the underground over the past few years, the rising artist dropped an exciting collaborative ep with lakosa via kerri chandlers madtech imprint last year, as well as a remix for chandlers long-running madhouse label. weve also heard outstanding guest mixes for cameo on bbcs 1xtra and coco coles capital fm show. with this in mind its no surprise to see the enigmatic producer snapped up for a series of releases on 2020vision, a label that has a knack for finding talent in the early stages of their career

space hardware is a bristol based imprint aiming to outlet left-of-centre slices of celestial electronic music. the next release comes courtesy of the essen based space cadet glenn astro who follows up a slew of eps on big bait records, odd socks and copenhagen s tartelet. the whole ep is brilliant, and as powerplay we choose the last track on the ep, clara parker s -uncertainty- remixes by astro hismelf. piano driven song, with broken beats, on the uk garage type.

part one of aroops brazil breakdown series was a big hit among the main players on the jazzy scene with airplay from gilles peterson and kev beadle etc. this second edition will definitely please all fans of the first volume but should also make him some new fans. on this release you will find 3 tracks in various tempos and sound but with one common detail ... brazil! all three tracks have their own sound but are designed to rock any party where the summer and sun is in focus.
