boys noize über “midnight”: “ich hatte das vocal schon längere zeit und setzte es in meinen dj-sets ein, aber ich fand nie den richtigen aufhänger, um daraus einen song zu machen. mein erster versuch war diese industrial-break-artige idee, aber ich verwarf sie und versuchte viele andere versionen. ich dachte, ich könnte etwas wie “xtc” machen, aber es funktionierte nicht. also holte ich meine initiale idee wieder hervor und ja sie wurde zu meiner lieblinsgversion. dieser prozess ist ein gutes beispiel seinem initialen bauchgefühl und seiner intuition zu vertrauen.”

the first strike off comes from none other than ukrainian phenom, silat beksi. the jasm ep spans three encapsulating tracks that are perfect for opening, peak, and after hour sets alike. known for his unique break beat style and rolling bass lines, silat beksi released his debut ep back in 2013 and has quickly risen the ranks as one of the top producers and djs from the eastern bloc. already with releases on the likes of mulen records, tzinah records, and body parts to name a few, his newest release sees a wide spectrum of styles and sounds. the jasm ep starts off with the title track, a smooth roller that infuses the break beat sound that beksi is renowned for with some playful jazz elements - truly a perfect track for those early morning after hour parties.

* after almost 20 years of making tracks with blaringly loud kicks, you tend to start producing with the other elements first to give yourself a break from the constant pounding of monitors at point blank range. following an analog filter shopping spree, i began working on a group of tracks where the low end was satisfied by the filtering, and realized these songs worked just fine without a bass drum. therefore this record is called “rareforms” since most of my other work consists of a kick drum and lots of loud effects. this record is dedicated to the brilliant synthesist and interpreter isao tomita, whose records always provide inspiration in the lab. also to master storyteller rod serling and his frequent collaborator bernard hermann, whose score for the hitchcock film vertigo i adapted through some midi processes and wavetable synthesis, then sent it through a 4-foot spring reverb.* - phil moffa

the extraordinary prolongation of sound jerked polly’s pretty head away from her work at the calibration machine. today’s jobs had seen her at her thorough and meticulous best but as afternoon melted easily into evening, these latest reverberations meant she’d no longer be able to focus to the level required. her boss had just dropped the bomb. as her ear drums filtered the noise, the technician’s bright mind was flooded with delight, her eyes no longer felt dry and tight with concentration, she was caught riding the crest of a massive wave of admiration. sitting her specs on the desk and pushing herself off the comfortable heat of her work stool, miss filla let the soundwaves pull her to her feet and carry her off to the main source of the captivating music. in honour of dixon avenue basement jams spending four years at the forefront of the global electronic music scene a new release was planned to shake the foundation to the very core. techno wizard big miz had been charged with delivering the goods and by the gods, the glaswegian had cracked it! he’d created, not just new tunes, but a whole new fucking genre. polly could feel the vibrations pulsating through every part of her curvaceous body as she sashayed along to the seductive beat.

nachtbraker is back! its been a huge year for the amsterdam deep house juggernaut who returns to dirt crew with his all new and colorfully titled really ties the room together ep. constantly on the move, hes found time between touring throughout europe, asia and south america to continue to push his a-typical house sound forward with this years heist release and his quirky jam busy bee that was featured on our deep love 100 compilation. this three tracker is jam packed with bouncing club tunes and a whole lot of flange. things kick off with the title track really ties the room together. it twists and turns over an unconventional but irresistible groove, shimmying shakers, brass stabs and a serpentine riff work together creating a super tight dance floor cut. rew begins somewhere in deeper territory, suspense building beneath the clouds, a rumbling bass rolls in from over the horizon before a glorious funk guitar blows the whole thing wide open, letting the suns rays burst through and that familiar nachtbraker good time energy shine in. the rerub of rew is something altogether new from our deep house protagonist, a break beat and casual groove guide gently towards an ever intensifying acid trip. dont be fooled by the lovely deep chords, things get nasty in the end. its best to expect the unexpected from our adventurous resident producer, and this ep is no exception.
