an incredible ep with namlook exploring the edges of minimal techno and deep ambient, while the remixes are pepe bradocks most dancefloor oriented works in ages! macro delivers a stunning release by a man who has not only produced 3 collaborational albums with richie hawtin, but also runs the ultra influential fax label with an artist roster ranging from speedy j to bill laswell to klaus schulze: namlook is a true electronic pioneer in a league of his own. the track >subharmonic atoms< was produced back in 1995 and is re-released by macro as a long out of print electronic prototype on the edge of minimal techno and ambient. but dont think this is a retro affair: subharmonic atoms sounds incredibly fresh and proves it is as groundbreaking, innovative and timeless as jeff mills early axis works or hawtins concept1 series. entirely remastered from the original source and cut in unparalleled sound quality, it is available on a single 12inch side for the first time ever. the release is completed with nothing short but french remix master pepe bradocks triumphant return to the dancefloor. his versions of >atoms< are rocking upfront house burners, which his fans have been waiting for since 2003s intrusion ep. definitely one of this years hottest packages

dj support by : 2000 and one, karotte, james flavour, tobi neumann.... after already four strong 12inches on audiomatique we proudly welcome back robert babicz with his fifth audiomatique release: >dark flower< is a shiny groover accompanied y a beautiful remix from rotterdam based techno-veteran joris voorn. the a-side features two new tracks by robert, >dark flower< & >spiralboogie<. >dark flower< showcases roberts typical handwriting: a dry, but funky groove construct with melancolic and deep synths while some highly seductive bass slaps create this very special babicz feeling. >spiralboogie< spreads its magic on a2. slowly building, having the funk in the trunk and fully focussed on simple, but reliable qualities. forward ever, backwards never. the flipside holds our chefs suggestion: an extraordinary joris voorn remix of >dark flower< which already stirred a huge buzz when steve bug tested it on his recent japan-tour or robert played it out in brasil last month. joris voorns mix perfectly combines floating harmonies with a thrilling drive. simply irresistible

incl argy remix !! tokyo s rising star ryo murakami has already put his diverse, electronic sound on the map with the >rise< ep on dessous last year, and received great praise for his track >my soul<, snapped up by steve bug for the fabric mix series, which was piled high with atmosphere and dark, club energy. his next 12 includes two new tracks, the title cut being >down the sky<, cooly influenced by old school house, but also more recent european forays into night music. ryo demonstrates a heavy aptitude for stripped down futurism, with staccato, jilted beats, joined by layers of padded synth structures, looming somewhere between light and darkness. the b side, ‚coke‘ (no questions asked) welcomes another one of ryo‘s extended journeys, this time a stronger, peak time groove which never lets off, and builds around layers of spaced out, pitching fx. brain-tingling pitching synths heat things up, before laying down a super-funk hook that melts on top of the beats irresistibly. ryo then leads us head-first into a series of spac d out, jacked-up movements, characterised by risque, feminine vocal snippets. poker flat‘s young greek maestro, argy, creates a stunning hi-tech remix of ‚down the sky,‘ complete with mesmeric dub influenced chord stabs and tripped out washes of delay. once again carrying on the vibe of the original, but twisting it into an altogether different beast, argy takes ryo‘s warm synth stabs and shapes the remix into a slow paced yet pumping club tool.

number 1 steve bug charts !!! redshape is len fakis musical partner of podium #05. with releases on delsin, styrax leaves and present he is regarded as on of the most exciting newcomers on the dance music circuit. few producers have achieved to delevop such an individual approach to detroit techno, few musicans managed to rough it up so relentlessly. redshapes track is an interminable battle against stagnation, each bar of the track bursts with musical creativity. on >whats on a moogs mind?<, this genre building synthesizer turns into a brain. the moog overrules all conventions of musical form, the machine becomes an unpredictable furious beast. the 808 cowbell develops an uncanny, emotional quality. a techno track as gripping as a cliffhanger. len fakis >odyssee ii< relates perfectly the dramatic tension of redshapes track. the absorbing sounds just soaks you in. through the whole accoustic journey of the track, you feel his sense for the special athmosphere of the berghain which reminds clubbers of a medieval cathedral

excellent release by one of the most revolutionary artists for deep house in spain, his name, jesus gonsev from cuidad real. the manchego native rounds out the tenth vinyl release of house cafe music with a definitive american sound from the early 90s. the future of this artist looks bright as he is poised to release more records on soul cafe music from south africa and gotta keep faith records. next to me, the title track of this ep brings memories of the productions of steve bug or gamat 3000 from the dessous glory days, lots of groove with simple elements which make it both mixab le and danceable. so deep, has already garnered the attention of house legends such as larry heard and ame, who have already included this track in their sessions.

supported by tomaz, dean facer, dave twomey, estroe… de/bug 06/07: >a quite poppy house monster incl. fresh melodies and relentless digging groove< (5 points). *smile!* is the labels first release since its relocation from frankfurt to berlin: in a style which is typical for good groove, a deep and funky sequence, packed with short vocal samples, densifies further and further to finally reach its peak by means of some choral subbass within the tracks last third, absolutely providing positive vibes to the listener. repeatedly and successfully tested live by co-producer yapacc, it was obvious to bring the dub-mix on vinyl, reduced to a minimum: here the vocals have been cut down to single snippets by yapacc, the *master of digital scissors*, to create sort of a brand-new language

new kanada is excited to present two deep advanced house cuts from the mood edit group. >santa domingo< is a peak-time monster house cut - seamlessy blurring the line between minimal and maximal. seriously jackin and bumpin beats collide head-on with haunting sirens and swirling textures. fast enough for the big room - but with a depth and rumble that screams >lock the doors and bring out the good stuff!<. >broken< begins as a tight minimal beat with gritty breakbeats dropping into the mix. slowly it expands into a frenzied piece of surgical funk that fits somewhere between nicolette s >dove song< and carl craig s >bug in a bassbin<. a long extended 8-minute journey into deepest water

supported by: sven väth, steve bug, mike monday, miss jools, karotte, satoshi tomie !! childhoods end is a massively bouncing detroit-influenced tune with a dominating chord theme you will not forget. this track has a story: when we received the first version almost one year ago, we already knew this could be a big one, because of the wonderful chord theme. however, we weren t completely convinced by the mix down. the improvement of this tune became a mental trip for pele. by producing his final version, he acquired so many skills, that with this track he has left his fledging stages – which is why this production is called childhood s end
