if *the wanderer* was the record that brought romanthonys obscure blackmale label to a wider dj audience, *testify* was the release that cemented its reputation as one of the labels to check for in the us import section. here are brandnew remixes: jimmy edgar, in true blackmale style, takes romans original chops it in his sampler and lays the results over a thundering distortion tinged beat. it is proper raw jacking business, perfect for small dark rooms with a few hundred sweaty bodies. waifs & strays deliver a brilliant modern update complete with an air-punching sax solo (something that was definitely one of the nails in the deep house coffin the first time round and the kind of thing that could get you shot if you used in the 00s). illyus & barrientos deliver what is arguably their strongest remix to date dropping snips of the original over a quite brilliant bassline groove. ed one & boddenalso opt for some bassline action but add in classic organ stabs and todd edwards style vocal chops to their big-ass bass wobbler. lastly, we have the previously unreleased cd#9 vocal version which as usual, features one of romans deeper, more organic mixes.

after an incredible summer that saw the diynamic label release more big hits from boss solomun and hot talents adriatique, as well as hold down their fantastic outdoor parties in ibiza, the hamburg house stable is unleashing a brand new series of four various artists eps called four to the floor - four eps with four tracks each, focussing on the dancefloor. the vinyl ep includes a download code.

• an organic, cold pressed and nutritionally balanced new 4 track ep from dont !
dont returns with a brand new various artists ep and the first in a new series that takes over where the * rumpus room* records left off.. * square meal* is designed to present to you a nutritionally balanced techno record, food for thought as well as for feet.. containing absolutely no artificial constituents but plenty of roughage and active ingredients !
the a side contains 2 heavy bangers, and the b side, 2 slices of amazingly quirky and rocking wonky style techno. man of the moment joe farr steps up and serves us a heavy one, dense, big boned techno music that manages to morph into gabba and back out again. this one is causing a stir whenever its played and fits perfectly with the dont ethos of extreme idea implementation! next up cursor miner returns to the label with a demented banger that has been road tested extensively during his live sets and comes with a health warning.. flip the record over for 2 slices of beautifully freeform wonky techno, the first coming from newcomer - sane and the second from dont veteran * edit*

none of them make music for the twenty-second century. the duo is constantly deconstructing its stylistic boundaries and follows traditions only to destroy them. on stage, signup (anymouse, big zis, grenzgänger) is the master of ceremony, michal ho (tuning spork, nicetry, etc.) is the selector. vocals glide over beats generated in little boxes full of flashing lights, sometimes smooth, sometimes razor-sharp. the debut album *one of them* will be released on nicetry records and comes on double 12 inch vinyl with download code included.

alan fitzpatrick is back with a three-track ep that encapsulates what alan s drumcode sound is all about. hard-hitting drums that fire down onto the dance floor like cannon balls. check! intense key patterns that are as twisted as they are uplifting. check! beautiful melodies that seamlessly interlock with each element. check! big-sounding, infectious grooves and killer hooks generously sprinkled with the infamous fitzpatrick magic over the top. check! in short, this ep is everything we have come to expect from alan over his long history with drumcode (this is his 10th ep as a solo artist!), but still his sound remains fresh and super-charged for 2014.

standard black vinyl - repress 2014
glorious and epic two tracker vinyl for bosconi records, this time by our favourite detroit techno duo the oliverwho factory. we used to be big fans of their madd chaise works and latest rush hour and planet e were awesome, but that percussive sound was different from what we knew from their past. we wanted them to give another chance to their more jacked out musical side in memory of the two masterpieces (and bosconi soundsytem favourite waxes) those were >the rhythm< and >the rain 5th wave<, and so we proudly got another timeless, soulfull, spacey and futuristic techno anthem called >take me away< darryl with his magic hands has created an ultra effective combination of energetic and groovy pumpin kick with a tight funky bassline substaining an upbuilding layers of dreamy synths and stormy noises while the voice of lashone gives that unique colour and atmosphere to the track that all the oliverwho fans love, dictating their original trademark sound. on the flip, takin inspiration from tama sumo panorama bar mix samplin the ow, we got an upbeat version of their slowmotion gem called >together<, that this time, thanks to altered states re touch of darryl and shone has become a proper and fat techno arena bomb, now just for the pleasure of absolutely everybody. you wont miss it, for sure

the amen brother disco band step aside for vol. 3 for this 4 track ep of low slung house and psychedelic stoner disco. a man with a similar vision for finding those leftfield dancefloor oddities, he is constantly searching for psyche fused gems and regularly surfaces with a sound that is unique to him and always stand out fresh. sergio is associated with the site prejke.se and runs his own blog diskoakademin, both being a source for his music discovery and crate digging. check it out. big support from psychemagik.

memory is the new solo ep from wys! co owner and resident jacob husley.the originals warm atmosphere is broken up by a darker bass stab, a dreamy vocal floats on top of the underlying bouncy sub bass. the track builds and breaks finally dropping into a harder groove with busy 909 claps sprayed on top. glimpses remix strips the track down and adds his own trademark warm dusty kick drums and percussion. the vocal gets pitched down, resulting in one of those special tracks that can be dropped anytime guaranteed and tested to groove and get the dance floor moving.

next big release on ava records... well done damiano

oslo is happy to welcome new artist federico lijtmaer to the family with his wonderful ep impermanencia. inpermanencia on the a-side is a superb deep house track with the right kind of funkyness for the cool. federico combines smooth bass with shifty drums and classy synth action. this track will conjure a smile on your face and we are happy as hell to be able to release this little gem. unselfish on the b-side is as funky as its big brother on the flip-side. a throwback to bygone times in a way, if you consider labels as mosaic or trelik. however, federico definitely succeeded in terms of a modern interpretation. the inclined listener will recognize his musical roots anyway.

reissue of a 1986 italo-disco classic.
accept no imitations, this is a genuine reissue from the label who gave us this now-legendary italo maxi-single back in 1986. often discussed in hushed tones among italo and disco enthusiasts mirko galli s most successful release tapped into the british songwriting/pop dynamics with both tracks while retaining full focus on the dancefloor with heavily synthetic grooves that refuse to quit. -when i let you down- is a visage-style love story blessed with intricate melodic layers and big catchy vocals. meanwhile -boogie tonight- is all about the metallic arpeggio, a nagging hook and future-minded arrangement twists that foretold the drama of house music before it even happened. a serious document, this.

from the sun kissed shores of brazil and the wonderful starlit nights of the mareh festival comes a new label, mareh music. mareh festival was started by a small group of friends whos only aim was to escape the big city, take an amazing sound system to a remote and beautiful part of the country, and then party together with friends and great music. it has grown since into a week long annual event featuring international djs playing alongside talented residents, and still has the same commitment to real quality and fun. mareh music is born from the soundtrack to those parties, and is launched to mark the festivals tenth birthday. so you can expect to hear beach bar boogie, disco-tinged dance floor movers and deep electronic groovers.

the hot creations powerforce show no sign of slowing down as they get set to release ‘acid jump’ from new yorkers eskuche & nu sky. destroying dancefloors all summer at the hands of jamie jones, the title track is a high-energy hitter and the ultimate weapon for peak time with big, powerful builds yet packed with groove, standout vocals and futuristic synths taking you on a journey into space. on the b-side ‘the future’ follows suit with an extremely infectious bassline and trippy fx. this is a killer two track release not to be missed!

following eomac’s debut album “spectre” on killekill, released earlier this year, here come remixes of the three most outstanding track sof the album. tommy four seven picked the title track spectre, taking away some of the dense texture of the original, speeding it up a bit and adding some straight-forward percussion to turn the original into a big anthem for the mellow moments on the dancefloor. lars stöwe aka anstam is using his anno stamm-alias to rip the distorted bassline of the grimey su riddim out and add some playful bassline variations and some serious 808 business to it to turn it into a peaktime banger with lots of chicago flavour. and do what they do best and turn shell of dark into a half-tempo stomper that after a while breaks up to a devastating weapon of distorted drums and melodies.

big techhouse cooperation between artenvielfalt (off recordings, light my fire, acker) and the tlk homie wolfgang lohr including very big remixes by tinush, felix jaehn and rob makzem.

the title track reveals a deeper and more contemplative mood for 2014, with a pensive piano loop, a dark-toned deep house swing, and a vocal sample that speaks to the experiences of the disenfranchised. chris lattner s remix of the same provides a punchier and more dramatic rhythm track for maximum impact and a more urgent effect. b-side production -morning poem- harnesses the power spoken dialogue again, with a big flter of distortion, and wispy, whirring deep tech sounds tha testablish a late night feel.

here comes the broadwalk tales remix ep. after the very succesfull broadwalk tales ep and album by fluxion, we now release a remix ep. joey anderson did a remix of the track you dont know and rod modell aka deepchord did 2 versions of the track for you. its the first time joey anderson appears on echocord, and since we are a very big fan of his music this a big thing for us. the remix is a beautifull driving track full of energy, melodies, and power, perfect for the dancefloor, and a typical joey anderson treatment. rod modell aka deepchord did eps and remixes on echocord before, and we always likes what he do. 2 deep floating, almost underwater kind of heavy tracks, beautifull and raw, at the same time.

jel ford kicks off his return ep with two tracks of clean big room techno. the title track backyard is a moody affair with a low drone throughout that is complimented with layered synth stabs. using reverb to create atmosphere within the track it subtly breaks down before a vocal hook transcends the track to deliver a killer blow. meeting of minds is dubbier and uses a tripped out synth to add rhythm whilst working alongside a synth pattern to keep the track chugging along. the slow evolving pads add texture and keep the track nicely filled out whilst this timeless classic keeps on giving.
