who is maetrik and just how does he get his beats and bleeps to sound so good? we cant be the only ones asking this question as recently eric comes on a string of big hits for audiomatique and mothership. erics been banging out stormers of late, but with dumb-unit its different. here we do our typical du magic and present something a little bit slankier, a wee bit dirtier, and a tad more tripped out. something that dancers and freaks can equally get their head around, something that will blast through the sound systems straight through the summer! and so without further ado we suggest you dig in ... and get ready ...

the second release of >vibes - new&rare music< brings rick wilhites long time friend and fellow 3chairs producer theo parrish to the table. theo gives us an adventurous ride like only theo can. starting out on a blues tip, this track morphs into a string laden jazz affair without missing a beat. epic stuff!
on the b-side its a one-way ride to chicago with ricardo miranda blasting on the car stereo. this relative newcomer, who has recorded for hour house is your rush and vega records, really outdoes himself on >urbanism<. as we cruise into town, heading straight to lakeshore drive, this track kicks off so soulful, yet so raw! it reminds us of the best days of prescription underground, on which this easily could have been released. addictive.

love letters from oslo starts with the 013 in the year 2010 and presented us with johnny d and sascha dive two producers of the special kind. after his sexy and playful house track >point of no return< released by oslo does johnny submitted us a title that fascinate the listener completely through his extraordinary percussive and impulsive composition, and it granted a look behind the scenes in the literal sense. kamkama by sascha dive follows on the b side, a no less to underestimated title. this track is distinguished by its deep bass line, intensified by atmospheric chords.so one can only say an ep, which let you be full of pleasant anticipation for the next spring season.

big with:laurent garnier, johnny d, hanne & lore, ante perry, sebastian lutz,.. family stuff is a collaboration between prodigal belgian producer kolombo and his nephew nicolas houart. nicolas always was an admirer of his nephews djing and production skills and so it was only logical that he would follow in his footsteps. lany recordings is very happy to provide the platform for the first outing of their collaborative studio efforts. with this first e.p. they prove they can handle both smoother and rougher versions of their house and tech house vision, while maintaining their own sound throughout the 4 tracks. i am has been killing dancefloors in belgium for a while in the many sets of label a&r maxim lany and kicks off the e.p.

italojohnson greets the dance floor with his first vinyl release embodying three functional tracks appropriate for any party mood.
the a-sides systematic drumming maliciously rumbles through the prime time floor as the mellow waves begin to take form and surge into a hysterical tsunami of beats. an emotional sunrise paves the tracks finale.
a similar functional sound continues on b1 and soon after, exposes itself as a percussive chicago house track as the 707, 727 and abyssal bassline protest against loungy house.
the dubbier interpretation of the italojohnson concept can be found in the final track on b2. the 808-thunderstorms and melancholic pads have lived through more than one summer, yet have only triumphed through charm and optimism.

remember your first time at a rave? of course you don’t. and if you do, you either did it wrong or you’re a liar. with the latest installment of the 7777 onslaught, jared wilson aims to remind you of a time you dont remember. this ep is a souvenir back in time. beyond the zero and beyond the one and back into the analog bringing back memories you never had and experiences you never felt. paris massacre is reminiscent of a time when function mattered more than form and fashion, when sound systems and no lighting took precedence over state of the art fashion shows and laptop djs. its not nostalgic by any stretch of the word, though. how can one be nostalgic for a time they cant recall? the flip of the record is the wonderful >scmocid<, a wonderful reexamination of what it means to work a 303 to near death.

night slugs are extremely proud to announce a new addition to their roster in the form of the one and only lil silva! the young mastermind behind potent uk funky anthems such as seasons, funky flex, different and the funky pulse, lil silvas house-meets-grime style has become iconic of the ukf scene. his tracks are cornerstones for djs like marcus nasty, who describes them as having the unique ability to consistently bun down raves. with that in mind lil silvas addition to the night slugs family makes perfect sense. his contribution to their limited vinyl-only white label series is a taster of what can be expected from his official ep for ns, dropping later this year. in the mean time feast yourself on the ultra-upfront a million, featuring carnival synths, glass breaks and snare destruction in the typical silva fashion. on the flip, silva pays tribute to house pioneer kenny dope in the form of the ultra-stripped down bassline-driven banger no hooks. bruckout time!

fat! records are back! this, my friends, is jolly spiffing news – especially when they return with something as resoundingly large and summer-specific as this uk funky-tinged number from foamo. carnivalesque mischief abounds as horns and infectious afrobeats weasel their way through the mix of whistles and bass on >centavo< while >jookie< takes things even further south of soa paulo with an epic horn fest doest dissimlar to unitedeyess >sambana< if you can remember that far back. to say welcome back would be an understatement. idj mag review 10/10 and top tune feature! rob da bank played foamo >jookie< saturday on radio 1. mistajam drops “centavo” on bbc 1xtra 17.03.10

ark has got an eclectic and organic sound, something in between. from his origins as guitarist in a number of 80s funk bands, most notably trankilou, where he hooked up with the legend that is pepe bradock and onto the great matthew herbert & losoul with their first collaboration, belle lurette in 99. the alleluyark ep series from 2003 reaffirmed as his status as chief protagonist of experimental, groove led house and techno. his 2005 long player on perlon, caliente won him critical acclaim, which is furthered by his more recent works together with shalom (as shalark), krikor (as krikark), cabanne (as copacabannark), mikael weill (as les cerveaux lents) and dolibox. his cannon of remixes is as long as the channel tunnel, reworking the likes of stephen beaupre, mr. oizo, archive, mossa, salif keita, slabb, fym, robag wruhme

gavin herlihy is back on cadenza, and he comes bearing what can only be seen as an instant anthem. remember those foam toys, the ones where you just had to add water, and theyd swell into wonderful, unexpected shapes? back burner is a lot like that, but no water needed: just a needle in the groove, or a laser across the aluminum, is enough to send this sucker ballooning to enormous proportions.

uno6 and sven tasnadi demonstrate once again why they can be called some of the best producers in leipzig.

nice price deal !!! 8 years after his first vinyl release georg levin can already be described as a long-time yet unlikely member of berlins electronic music scene. with both his solo project and his production outfit wahoo he is definitely too much on the soulful side to be a typical representative of the techno and rock sound the city is known for. however, it may be this supposedly alien surrounding that gives his compositions and productions a distinctive blend. to his credit georg also had a no.1 on traxsource in late 2009 as a precursor to the release of this, his second album album and debut for bbe.

2010 repress !! clear vinyl!! incredible techno record, quo vadis, el jem and sparticus was made in 1994/95, and released in 95/96. you can feel the influences of classic maurizio and dbx here. already one half of lfo, gez varley definitely proves with this record that he can be a genius... ltd clear vinyl

track 2! john daly continues his evolution as a producer and comes with some of the best works he ever did! rooted in chicago house traditions of larry heard he comes with track 2 on his own designer label for tracks he loves to play. this is an ultimate house track that very few djs can resist. classic groove, epic build up, intense synths, sexy bass lines! he navigates between classic deep house and his own desire to go into oceanic depths. larry heard would be proud of him!

its back, its great, its acid, its deep, its house, its time! after a little break the label its is back with a fine release of deep acid house by the dj artist rvds. 3 tracks (two with british vocals) full of soul, acid and love, inspired by the detroit classics like mr.fingers, omar s, etc.. all house heads are in for a treat. listen, dance or take it as a dj tool? - the tracks goes into one another - in this time you can dance, talk to people, go to the toilet, take what you need and go back to the turntables!

wonderful release by kyle hall on his new detroit based label wild oats. masterpiece 4 track ep, each track divine and unique in its own way. hot jazzy kyle hall fashioned deephouse that can serve a lounge and at the same time bang even harder on a dancefloor. kyle halls experimentalist off beat antics meets smooth jazz would be a way to describe the sound. poly rhythms everywhere but at the same time a cohesive groovy soulful feel. overall this ep is a must buy for anyone who is for the future of the electronic music genre and enjoys quality.

secouer is a record label with an international distributor, and born like the home of the orchestral with old groove and house secouer records born in 2009 behind the research work of the most diverse currents of music. the need to explore this genre arises from the idea to give a dress at the electronic scene. jazz becomes the means for a reconfirmation of the world of house most virtuous, not forgetting to accommodate the new sounds of the international scene. so the founders decide to explore this genre that combines dance with a fine ear for good sound not generalizable. only the bpm jazz or funky or orchestral can make the difference, which can give to house a dynamic and more human

dj tasaka is the busiest, known as mix master of japanese techno scene, he mixes techno, minimal, house, disco, electro any records, any genre he feels like.

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

with a well-earned remix refill, cocoon recordings is taking a bow before the belfast-born dj and producer phil kieran, whose >shh< album from last year, like rarely another album release, was able to proof how fresh, futuristic and complex modern techno can sound.

nice price deal !!! a rolling bassline kick that glides trough snapping and chopped up vocals makes this track a certain floor filler. and when half way trough you hear the latino guitar riff slice its way in, you can just wait until it hits off.giving the track power and funk! and incredibile mix of latino funk and straight on 4/ house. on b side you can find an eclectic remix of stoned chicken, who brings out a more samba feel also by dubbing down the guitar, a gradual build up track.

fresh & ltd repress !! mark murphy is a jazz singer legend. he started in the late 50is, ruled the 60is and his records are a hipsters must have since the 70is. then he came to fame again when one gilles peterson got him into dingwalls in the late 80is and japanese producers united future organisation made murphys version of stolen moments (he wrote the lyrics) really big. recently he releases his second album love is what stays on verve (germany), produced by famous german trumpeter till brönner. another famous german producer, yes its henrik schwarz, touched the original track with its deep vocals and full orchestrra arrangement and created the ultimative fusion of jazz and the recent deep house sound from berlin. extremly tasteful. you will never heard strings, wooden brass, and such deepnees of murphy featured in the recent clubcontext but will do thanks to henrik schwarz. different to many others this remix gets released right after being finished in henriks studio so you can say this is the sound of the moment

>chaotisch serie< kicks off with a human sound that could only be composed deep in your throat, a sound that can hardly be described in words... rough and smooth at the same time... screaming for help it seems. then suddenly metallic sounds delay and tumble in... turning into an army of steel beetles swarming the place. plunging into a sweet melody that contorts being followed by trippy delays reminding us of the opening sequence of >the hunger< with catherine deneuve and david bowie at a bauhaus concert, we know this track will be huge.

its been a while since the last release, but labelowner mike humphries received so many good material that he only had one option. this must be released! odessa soundfreaks bringing the funk back to the label with 3 tracks that can be best descriped as driving! a lot of energy is pumped into these tracks and the result is stunning. try to freeze on this one!

we have never done a project like this before where the artists choose all the remixers themselves. but for the crazy italoboyz album >bla bla bla< we found ourselves not really knowing what to do. so instead of forcing our own ideas for remixers we went back to the source and let the artists run wild on the a&r. marco and fede commissioned all the remixers themselves. the producers they chose are a very diverse bunch and the vinyl 12inch takes a sampling of the best material from two very big underground names. on the a-side das kraus duo turn it a super jackin yet also very haunting rendition of >oh mio dio.< it sounds like pitched up chicago house meets demon days. on the b-side old school master dandy jack turns in one of the oddest records ever on mothership with some unusual sound design, voices and semi-dischordant note runs. super weird for the super weird! whatever you think of this odd lot no one can deny these remixes definitely carry the indistinguishable mark of that ever so quirky duo, the italoboyz
