joel mull is more than a contemporary techno artist. he definitely will be known as one of few who more than rode but created the wave and will always be mentioned regarding the fact that he underlines the message that techno will never die! he made his choice in his early adolescence attending a music school and spending hours and days at the piano and keyboard. he is amongst the top 4 swedish electronic musicians with the likes of adam beyer, cari lekebusch and jesper dahlbäck. he started traveling around the globe more than a decade ago and quickly made himself well known as tasty bit of the electronic world with great dj-sets and astonishing live performances which are a must have seen even for the hardest critic. he is a quiet guy who learned his handcraft and evolved into a genius producer who incorporates all his listening experiences in his music. code red, drumcode, kanzleramt, inside records, primeevil, loop records, superstition records, svek, tortured records, turbo, underwater …are some of the platforms which aid him spreading the message

a little less than two and a half years after its conception—and close to 30 singles, one compilation, one mix cd and one sublabel later—berlins mobilee releases its first artist album. naturally, who better to represent the milestone than pan-pot, who so far have delivered five essential singles to mobilee, helping to anchor the ever-shifting sound of one of europes most exciting labels. in just two short years, with 10 singles (for mobilee and einmaleins musik) and lots of remixes, theyve become known far and wide for their distinctive, groovy, and above all ominous sound. pan-o-rama finds the boys stretching that sound in every possible direction: twisting, tearing, and using the shreds to drag a wide swath of techno history into the future (and, just maybe, to drag a few pieces of techno future back into the past). call it minimal if you must, but this aint no clickity-clack shit. you can hear the agonized gurgle of isolationist acid, reminiscent of plastikmans darkest nights. you can hear the percolating urgency of classic bleep techno. tried and true hardware collides with restless digital experimentation as dance musics dna worms its way into twisted new shapes. pan-o-rama is dark, thats for damned sure. eerie vocals that seem to come from within the listeners own head creep across the stereo field. throughout, restrained minor-key melodies conjure 21st century noir, and a relentless low-end rumble seems to suck up all the light around it

versatile are delighted with this new addition to their catalogue. a release made in belgium by detroit techno prodigy: fabrice lig. as you will notice on this new ep, the first white guys to have signed a record on kevin saundersons legendary label kms, remains faithful to the sound of motor city. a light and esoteric melody sets the tone of >x-slaves who changed the world<. the tight clap and kick drum leave room for the modulating bass. a voice similar to martin luther kings, repeats names of cities in which slavery prevailed, whilst pads stimulate the mental trip. the x slave is taken by the dancefloor, changing the world as he dances to the beat. “funk la termite” is elastic funk. binary rhythms, off-beat chords which keep the groove balanced whilst the hi-hats, like little insects, dig away at the beat, building it and deconstructing it as the sounds evolve. >the round of funky bugs< continues in the vein of creepy crawlies. here, the synths are more upfront, their acidic layering create a mixture of harmonic loops which will set all hells lose. the melodies and use of pads stay anchored in the detroit tradition, but this production fits just as well with all the current electro releases worthy of any good dancefloor

dop is is brand new combo from paris formed by 3 talented musicans. clement zemtsov is programing the beats, damien van de sande is playing keyboards and horns at last but not least, lelli is warmly laying the lyrics. one year and a half later they come up with >between the blues ep<, a brilliant second ep after a first release on milnormodern records in september 2007. that 3 tracker is rich and full of great ideas. >allo boom boom< ist he main dancefloor track of the record. here it’s all about subtility, percussiv groove and saxophone accent for your mind. that track al ready got full support from many talented artist like pepe bradock, zip, samim. you wont escape from it in next months. on the b side, >dopamen< result of a little freestyle session with nôze. they are studio neighbors since a year.and sometime collaborate on each others projects. the last track is taking us to an unexpected musical adventure >the between blues< is a slow beat track with vocals from johnatan illel. after listening to the t e other tracks of the record you will might be surprise by this song

real soon is proud to present the debut release by berlin-based producer hauke freer. hauke has an old-school production approach, working with contemporary software but using a palette of mainly vinyl samples to give a loose, effortless, raw-sounding edge. my beat is a dirty, gritty, house work-out featuring deep, filtered chords, lo-fi percussion and roughly chopped vocal pieces. old-fashioned in a good way - just the way we like it! we must face our fears is a smoother, minimal track with a delicate, beautifully measured mesh of percussive knocks, slides & bleeps driven by a pulsing sine wave bass. as the track builds, a classic detroit-flavoured chord wash brings it all together. bliss... biography hauke freer grew up in a small town near hamburg and moved to berlin in 2000 to work for the techno label kanzleramt. after spending a year in australia djing and working for the label future classic, hauke returned to berlin to work for the resopal schallware label

already in groove charts !! herzblut is back. after the release of his debut lp >liebe ist...<, which set new standards on planet techno, stephan bodzin returns with his longtime friend and production partner marc romboy to open the 6th chapter of the already legendary label. ariel is nothing but a true club-berserker sounding as if romboy & bodzin had jacked a dive bomber heading towards the dancefloor kamikaze-style !!! the flipside is a powerful efx-loaded builder creating an atmospheric tension, while perfectly displaying the true romboy/bodzin production skills only killer no filler

hairy claw is rapidly returning to the forefront of deep, tracky late night house music following a sabatical. this new slice of nice comes from calculus (aka gary goodwin) and is formed of two excellent tracks. walrusman is a stabbing, chicago groove with undulating bass and loose drums making it a swaggering dancefloor bomb. its counterpart, pilot treads a trippier but more direct dancefloor path with a nagging groove, fluttering keys and an incessant bassline. both tracks have seen support from ame, sasse (mood music), sebbo, solomun, justin drake (peace division), david alvarado, tania vulcano (dc10), rub & tug, trickski and many more

producer holger behn aka h.o.s.h. is back on stil vor talent with his third release and second 12 inch on oliver koletzkis imprint. his latest two tracks are all about house music, while always keeping a strict eye on the dancefloor. it starts with the tech-house anthem >grünanlage<, the name of a sunday afternoon open air in h.o.s.h.s hometown hamburg that he co-organises. the tune features a great clappy snare and some wonderful balearic guitar melodies, which swing over the fast loop. this tune is going to put a smile on your face wherever you are. on the flip there is >blaupause<, which translates as blueprint and is a dreamy housy pusher that keeps grooving with its synthie-stabs and warm bassline. later in the track h.o.s.h. adds an oldschool piano that pushes the track into another state with its drifting melody. it reminds us of so very many great rave moments. however, h.o.s.h. never gives in to the temptation of drifting off into cheese, stays cool at any given moment and keeps the seal of quality for his music very high. >blaupause< is a wonderful summery teaser that never explodes, but keeps imploding! h.o.s.h. once again does what he does best: delivering two wonderfully melodic tracks that fluctuate perfectly between house and techno. just the way we like it

pascal feos succeeds with his debut 12 on karmarouge in a matchless manner a fusion of extremely wooden and dry beats with well fed warm sounds, it’s a hard but genial mixture of functionality and deepness. from the essence of minimalistic sound

palette is proud to debut its newest artist, dave hughes. the irish born, la-resident sound engineer finally let palette in on his music making secrets. the result is daves debut ep >lets do it<. a three tracker showcasing what is to come from this visionary artist. >lets do it< kicks the ep off with a strong rhythmic solid base which alone would be enough to solidify it as a stand out track, but without delay the song quickly develops into a musical journey with rhythmic chords at the end providing the icing on the cake. the flip side provides two more tracks of the same calibre, >it all deepends< and >realization< showcase great sound design skills and a message about our own humanity. take in to account the heavy subs and intricate drum programming and you have what we feel to be a classic palette recordings single

stripped-down but funky minimal chicago tracks by noleian reusse & jamal moss..

an incredible full album from dinosaur l the legendary new york dancefloor project of arthur russell! the groups a punky, funky, chunky amalgam of bass thumping, guitar riffing, keyboard filling, and sax honking all very much in the spirit of russells best quirky club work of the time, but with the added sound here of a more expanded approach one that takes the tunes in a whole new territory than the more famous 12 inch singles! the tracks on the set are simply numbered 1, 2, 3, and so on and come across almost as free jamming instrumentals! totally great stuff as experimental as it is funky!

alfred azzetto is back on purple music with the feel good massive anthem colors, which was one of the most played promo cuts at this year winter music conference. interestingly djs all the time played an acapella over it but also the instrumental melody sounds great. part one includes the walterino main mix is a fierce production featuring classic strings and wicked keys that give the track a modern disco sound, while the piano mix is on a deeper edge, with a great piano hook added (that is reminiscent of bas noir my love is magic). part two includes a full vocal mix & the remixes from dj fopp & christian hornbostel, which will be out end of october. it was worth to wait some months for the release of this tune!

imagination of the shape draws a new skyline while not abandoning the roots of the city. the tracks this time obviously point towards the future of course a bright one! the mixture of established artists and newcomers declares that plastic city has many great names and artists inside the city limits and nevertheless searches for new flavours, techniques, sounds and people but this time something is really different. all artists mentioned on the double 12inch compilation come up with neverseen creations which all have a new flavour and perfectly fit together. imagination of the shape sounds like science fiction house music something you never heard before. high quality tech house touches new spheres and instantly grabs the listeners attention. approved artists as terry lee brown junior, the timewriter, greg parker, rob pearson, colin dale or eddie richards prepared a row of pleasant surprises as they left the old centre of their city. slightly more minimal but still housy and groovy the tracks are connected to each other as it has always been greatly compiled at plastic city. theres much consideration behind the artists works as well as behind this chapter. imagine the shape imagine the future

train of thought is not only significant for being the latest album by detroit legend terrence dixon but for being yores premiere full length release. the albums tracks range from 80s sounding cybotron like excursions to raw, stripped down techno and warm, chord driven house alike tunes. the double vinyl set includes rapturous settings of synthetic sound and swinging cuts whose burbling keys, pounding kick drums, and brisk hi hats evoke the brilliant sheen of detroit techno. though his music may invite comparison to drexicya and atkins, dixons music often imitated but never duplicated ultimately stands alone.
