one of japans most intriguing graphic artists >baiyon< has also been producing ethereal and engaging tracks since 1998. having journeyed through cut up hip hop house and dub regions under his conceal moniker, d1 invited him to perform two ecstatically received live sets as baiyon at dublins deaf festival in 2005 and in 2007. now for our 41st in the d1 catalogue we are presenting 4 flawless minimal >trecks< of deep space activity. first up is >s soup< a slick fusion of traditional japanese block grooves and drum machine that climbs its way up into a cloud bursting deep dub house melody explosion. side a is completed by a remix of aforementioned track by south african dj/producer >shane berry< of synewave and trapez fame. the mission continues through >the middle< showing a slightly tougher side to this usually light hearted artist. the plate concludes with a stunning bouncy deep jerky house number >can ride, can walk, cant wait< sweet deep melodies dubbed out over club chuggin beats and a red hot squidge bassline

generate music & deepswing productions introduces a new powerhouse singer to the house music scene. this new star with quality talent is brijai harvey. brijai was recommended to generate music by chance (rise up & rescue me) who is a talent within herself. the result from the first vocal session with brijai was this track listen to my power, and because of her talent, this track has all the key ingredients to take it to the top! worldwide everyone can relate to this subject matter in the song.

continuing far outs 7inch series, joyce scats her way over two high octane bossas with an unmistakable feminina-style sound. this 7inch features an exclusive version of feijao com arroz - a track from joyces forthcoming cd yet here with a scorching bassline that differs from the album version and will ensure the tune gets flipped by those djs who know the damage a bass led bossa groove can do to a dancefloor. feijao com arroz - rice and beans - might be the simplest of brazilian dishes yet this track is a master class in samba jazz. joyce and her banda blend the basic ingredients of bass, drums, guitar and vocals into a rhapsodic groove that sounds like it could be a lost classic from seminal joyce albums such as feminina or tardes cariocas. joyce weaves a web of sonorous guitar work in between tuttys frenetic cymbal work as her scat lifts the tune high whilst a driving bassline pushes the groove low, surely putting feijao com arroz up there with the likes of aldeia de ogum and feminina. on the flipside lies penalty, a live favourite from joyces recent japanese tour. again on paper the ingredients look simple - bass, drums, guitar and vocals - yet in the hands of joyce and co the elements are blended together to create a celestial slice of spiritual jazz dance guaranteed to lift even the weariest of souls.

full support from 2000 and one, karotte, sebo k, tobi neumann, adultnapper, jamie jones and more.. beautiful deep detroit tech music !!have you ever experienced the empty spaces of ghost city detroit? they inspired sten aka lawrence to this hypnotic 12inch- three versions of >squares<. the deep techtunes can be regarded as an hommage to early derrick may tracks, heath brunner and all detroit techno bunch from back to now. functional grooves from the roland machines on a melodic soundcarpet plus the mighty detroit string section- this one is made to dance, eyes closed, the heart open. peter m. kersten aka lawrence / sten launched the dial label in 2000 together with his flat mate and dj friend carsten jost

after a long break due to the work on the new dirt crew album and numerous remixes in the past 2 years break 3000 is back solo with his typical deep trance techno sound we know from his great releases on my best friend and trapez. this 10 minute plus monster is a dark and pumping excursion into the heart of techno. with a massive beat and a hard hitting piano stab the track winds itself through any soundsystem and when the old school 90s strings fall in you can be assured that the crowd goes crazy… on the flip daso proves his skills with an even tighter techno mix of the original. with his latest work for spectral and connaisseur he is on the top of the game and we are very proud to have him on board with this excellent remix, its amongst his best productions to date! loved by dave mothersole, c rock, p toile, sasse, nunos dos santos and many more..

nice price deal !!! behold ear goodies from fjordfunk, with his hi quality sonic fishing fleet. the sounds of epic coldwater trawling can now be yours in the safety and comfort of your own adobe. the scampi disco scamp takes dancefloor analog melodic waves from the seas and oceans of tranquility, and then weaves the cosmogony of new record label, luna flicks, deftly and with the skill of loki himself into strangely solid beat nets to catch unwary listeners by the feet. with this, the first lunar orbit, we hear ovid 8 metamorphose into a post 9/11 poissonier. good lord, st. francis himself couldnt get the mackerel dancing so well (despite their lack of jiving feet)! an anthem for the pre apocalyse generation, spinning a woven path to dancefloor bliss and enlightenment. this is fjordfunk: hear him roar.

hyperdub kick off 2008 they way they intend to proceed, with new tracks from a new artist. on her debut release, ikonika comes with her own very unique, warped yet soulful bleep sound. with shape shifting beats that switch styles every few bars its hard to pin these two tracks down... cos if it was easy, it just wouldnt be hyperdub. both tunes are one minute minimal, one minute maximal, driven along by ikonikas special combination of wonky synth and deep swingin sub bass melodies that place them somewhere between an early, blocky grime instrumental and the sweeter side of detroit techno ? except with better bass of course! who needs a vocalist when your synth can sing like this? quite how kode9 manages to keep unveiling new producers of such abundant talent is a conun drum, but one to be cracked some other time when we?re not so busy keeping up with his astonishing labels ceaseless march into the future.

patterns introduces another killer on the hot and running imprint. this time its boriqua tribez who has made an even bigger follow up to the big time seller patterns 31. houze arrest can be described as pure tribally beats and big time energy throughout the whole track creating the perfect dancefloor vibe. the flip is as big a burner as the a-side, just spin it and see what happens

the bass heavy >mallorca< is featured in remixes by mood music head honcho sasse and composts newcomers marbert rocel, while llorca from paris has turned >incredible< into a club banger. the brothers javi and luis aka wagon cookin are lucky buggers. their recent album >2faces< is getting tons of props from illustrious supporters like osunlade, king britt, laurent garnier, rainer trüby or llorca. then christian prommer picked up their first single >start to play< and conducted a true remix masterpiece reaping even more flatteries from ben watt, jimpster, ashley beadle, markus enochson… in summer time you can find the guys chillin on their favourite mediterranen rock: mallorca. they like this place that much that they even made a song about it which turned out to be the best kept secret from >2faces< - a bass heavy groove monster and deejays fave which finally sees its well deserved release on vinyl to be played out loud in the clubs. and as this wasnt enough reason to celebrate, mood music head honcho sasse lindblad and french connection ludovic llorca (of f-com fame) check in to deliever top notch remixes of >mallorca< and the b-side track >incredible<. last but not least compost newcomers marbert rocel join the gang to make their debut as remixers, and the result is quite impressive - althought their version of >mallorca< is a little bit more dancefloor orientated than their >speed emotions< album material. enjoy!

when i first started making the drum on my mpc it sounded like a battle of drums i then added some stabs from the machines, trying to make it sound like the oldschool chicago tracks. this track is all about editing, drum programming and of course the inimitable tap repeat touch that only the mpc can generate. the end result is ninted house, a pure floor killer for all you real house heads. the clash is not a reference to the band but i felt the track goes well with ninted house it has the same mpc groove. stabs and hip hop sampled voices that remind us of those kind of tracks, where editing and sound mixing are more important than the musical elements. its that breadth in house music that i love. enjoy those two floor killers and dance ur ass off! franck roger

taken from the forthcoming album !!knives was produced during the album sessions, but works best as a single for djs as its a massive club track. paul woolford has been the track playing in every set recently. this is the first single to be released from >the truth<, paul woolfords new artist album, and this is the only way vinyl fans can get hold of tracks from paul woolford presents bobby peru >the truth<. knives is purpose built for sound systems the world over. direct floor techno with some quick edits and quirky touches.

sometimes, its still worth not to waste your youth with nonsense but to learn to play an instrument. like in the case of sebastian mullaert, who has learned to play violin, organ and piano, while his partner marcus henriksson rather came from kraftwerk and human league to electronic music. as son kite, the two swedes have already a well-known name in the psy-trance scene, and as minilogue, they now start to conquer the minimal and house world. with their rather unique sound, they manage the tightrope walk between minimal and trance and never allow us to put them into a drawer. especially with their debut on cocoon rec, minilogue present themselves in a different way, compared to their releases on traum or wagon repair. >jamaica< is a calm track at the first hearing and is perfect for building up a set. beginning with bird-like sounds, the track builds up slowly and quickly becomes very interesting and tricky, ramifies as organic as a climbing plant, and when the tribal sound emerges from the underground, this track has exactly what makes minilogue so special: organic matter and groovy sounds, worked into a minimal labyrinth with very much love for the details. all of that can also be found on the b side which seems to be more adequate for the morning hours, with its somehow spacey sound. with >jamaica<, mullaert and henriksson prove that they are floating on the very surface of the endless minimal ocean. and with their album >animals< being already in sight on cocoon recordings, one can be highly anxious of what is coming ahead, by minilogue and techno made in sweden

with his now second release on mauritius, marc vision might still be a newbie to the label, but definitely not to the scene. apart from being an experienced dj since ages with a deep bond to germanys superclub >tribehouse<, he can look back on diverse releases as vision & canedy (on scuba, avalanche, plusquam & hadshot rec.), vita (together with trance pioneer taucher on labels such as tracid traxx & on a mission), visiontool (together with marc o tool on andry nalins label superfly rec.) and finally as marc vision himself (on mauritius, poison, underworld & earregular rec.). >obsession< leaves no doubt being a sure floor filler. subtly but effective the track begins with a deep bassline and develops into a kooky rave-house-monster. >the finest< on the flipside tackles things deeper and more atmospheric, but when a bulky bassline suddenly says hello half way of the track, the unmistakable command is hands up!

ealier support by chloe, giles smith and karotte. maik loewen was already infected by musiccalitis in early years. and there was also his increasing fascination for beats. it did not take long till he started playing the drums and synthesizer. with the tb 303 being one of his first instruments he immediately became addicted to electronic sounds and became quite skilled in using these new devices in his own productions. during his apprenticeship at the recording studios he produced his first tracks. at the same time he started his collaboration with oliver hacke and gabriel ananda. they supported him to get his first record deals. following his first releases on tonsport >arnika ep<, karmarouge >mezcal ep< and trapez >one year one month< and remix projects for walter dahn und jorge gebauhr, his latest ep on poikerflat >even if you sleep<, maik finally appears on karmarouge: the >backcountry camping ep<. his deep understanding for functional sounds and extremly pumping beats, combined with the right mixture of genius and insanity, enables mike to playfully produce upfront club-compatible music. >i dont like musical restrictions, what counts is the feeling of the moment, expressed in acoustic waves<. a perfect mixture that metamorphoses the dancefloor into a seething gladiators arena and wich become one of this genius minimal techno anthems who seems to fly higher more and more. not to forget the huge portion of groovy funkiness. the three tracks on the ep nicely explore different nuances of maik loewens present sound

andrew mc lauchlan meets adam beyer >love story< meets >remanipulated< !! one could say p series stands for >pretty daring remakes of superb killer tunes< the label has quite a history of reconstructing those essential classic, giving m a futuristic upgrade so these can once more stir the dancefloor and create positive confusion on many occasions!
