after his huge success >smokemachine< on freak waves jaxson is back with a release on one of his favourite labels. >miami flys< is a housy summer tune that fit perfect in the keno records style and will rock the clubs and open airs in 2008. hotspot is more stripped down and hypnotic but this time less is more again. piemont, the two guys from hamburg who released on labels like my best friend, hi freaks or yellow tail do what they can do best: they turn this track into a real club bomb..

ryralio records are back with its latest release by a young and very promising talent rising straight from the heart of lithuania. please welcome santi touch! the release starts with original version of candle. this floorshaker combines sharp and shaking beats with some electrified and jazzing vibes which will make a real move on your dancefloor. spin science remix enters deep spaces with sound that we call nordic house. it’s a little bit progressive,a little bit spacey and always deep – exactly what you can hear on other spin science releases on labels like plastic city, rotd and urbantorque. the release is closed by whare wurlitzer dub. this deep and dubby version is brought to you from vienna‘s freshest project whare. watch out for those guys as their new record label takes departure in a few months and it will hit your record players quite heavily.

funky minimalism and electronica

three new tracks by mix mup on mikrodisko. three musical statements, instead of drawing from a wide range of samples from old vinyl, as he did on his last release >dj of higher quality<, mix mup this time mostly relies on his own voice and an all-in-one sequencer. you can hear his love for raw chicago-acid-house b-sides, his affinity for italodisco and sonic experimentation. this is not about a clean sound and a clear arrangement, the tracks were produced in a moment for the moment. all tracks were produced in a single session, without quantising, without a screen, without a mouse. always with some scepticism and his tongue in his cheek

following the runaway success of their first release (2007s bedmo disco volume 1 by thumbs aloft) the mysterious pointless edits crew return with a second ep of wrong reworks from bristol, england. this time, the bedminster obsessed posse have enlisted the support of shady londoners hardway brothers and rico for a three track pointless allstars assault on the worlds disco dancefloors.

following the success of last years >nitrogen 2 oxygen 1< ep for siteholder records and the recently released >filthy fibber< ep on uncut, the duo of billy dalessandro and daniel mnookin have teamed up once again under the slutbox moniker to deliver the >backseat driver< ep. switching up the rotation, the ep kicks off with los angeles based producer jason emsleys >lick it, smack it, rub it down remix<, a filthy number that no amount of sludge can adequately describe. a subtle, yet effective rhythm section keeps the dance floor busy while the dirty synth overtones grow larger and larger until they have conquered ones brain synapses. feeding off of the original vocal and adding some x-rated lines of his own, if pornographic techno wasnt a genre before, it is now. the original is pure slutbox at its best. deep bass, seductive rhythm, addictive loops, and a spanish guitar combine to make this one another club killer. as if you had a choice, please make your way to the dance floor - the night has begun. rounding out the vinyl release is st. louis via berlin dj/producer butane (a.k.a. andrew rasse). known for his widely praised work on his own alphahouse label, as well as top techno imprints dumb unit, num, and rrygular, butane has long been a friend of the siteholder crew and takes this opportunity to make his debut on the remix tip. deep, druggy, and hypnotic, butanes >percocet remix< is what one has come to expect from the late night veteran. whether its early evening, time to jack, or after-after hours, the >backseat driver< ep is an all-in-one tech fueled necessity

d passion had some guests over at his studio, and heres the result! the collabs, a special release featuring 4 collaborations of d passion with artists from all around the scene. the first one might be a combination of 2 of the youngest, yet most thriving forces in the harder dance, take the risk is d passion and italian mad dog kicking it with bassdrums, tight melody and sharp vocals. together with promo, d passion sat down and created the last track of the night, a track with a large intensity grade shows their view on how the last 5 minutes of an event could and should sound like. the b-side might be a familiar one to many. last year, d passion and unexist provoked each other to non stop hardcore antics, and the two tracks which resulted from this session might be some of the hardest out there! bring the noise and what the hell are the best examples of how intense the combination of the unexist style and d passions production skills can be.

after the genre-smashing, seven vinyl pressings deep (and counting) success of viktor casanova, there is no way that the italoboyz could possibly top their first appearance on mothership, right? wrong! we are happy to report that they have created an organic techno masterpiece in >bahia<, enlisting the help of one of the greatest jazz musicians of our time - john coltrane. youve never heard the master like this - the italoboyz have molded the original >bahia< into a stomping peak timer as only they can. their trademark monster kick underpins stuttering jazz kits, a playful piano line, and an insistent, soulful tenor sax sample from the man himself (cleared after four months of intense negotiations). bahias intro leads into one of the most surprising and euphoric breaks you will ever hear. there are two versions to choose from - the party swing mix gets right to the point, grabbing you by the scruff of your neck. the flip sides mucho lungo mix is perfect for those late night warehouse moments, taking its time to deliver the sweet payoff

monotonix are a punk trio from tel aviv. they formed in november 2005, set up on the floor of the club with the audience, and the party began. but the party usually got too wild, the power got cut, the cops were called and monotonix were banned from playing again almost everywhere. before long, they were looking for good places to play outside of israel - and they were delighted to find that there are more rock and roll party places outside of israel than inside! today, monotonix are the hardest working rock band in the world. sure, lots of other bands work up a sweat, but monontonix are definitely the only band who puts in the kind of miles they do, and they rock rings around pretty much the rest of us too. these guys do two different shows in two different towns on the same day whenever they can manage it. but thats only the tip of the hard working iceberg. body language sounds almost like a monotonix show. the only thing you cant hear is the sound of your heart beating in your ears after having been chased around the room by a vocalist with his pants literally on fire, then getting dousedwith beer and dancing your ass off to the guitar riffage, then ending it all by carrying the drummer around on your shoulders while a few other guys hold his kit up so he can keep drumming. you dont end up quite as out of breath when listening body language, but you do get a ton of excitement anyway, courtesy of a killer guitar sound, precision power drumming and lusty lead vocals. they recorded body language with tim green (of the fucking champs) at louder studios in san francisco. it twists and grooves with all the fun and fervor of great rock and roll.

the term >ballad< is written similarly in many languages of the western hemisphere. it is a antique word. you can find its etymological origin in the latin verb >ballare< - which means >to dance< - and the greek verb >ballein< - wich means >to move<. a ballad is always a story told through music. in recent times the term >ballad< is often associated with greasy / absurd pop music. what a shame! ballad inc. releases tracks that earn the label >ballad<. on our first release >exile< you can listen to the epic story >high hopes of salvation< by quietpoint and to two short stories by xdb. >anilem< and >jupit< got everything a ballad needs. of course you can dance to it. of course you can move your body. but this should not be the main issue! there is so much more in modern instrumental music. who needs words to tell a story?

the sheer depth in production of the original coupled with the quality of the reinterpretations can be seriously time consuming! the original midali blends ethnic vocal chants and charles websters silky sound to create a sublime dance floor atmosphere. brooks adds trademark futurism and takes daddys vocals into orbit. charles dub is multiple layered soft softly house cut for down moments and is followed up by vincenzos marginally more energized version. enjoy.

first single to be lifted from the forthcoming lp is a flawless representation of some of the freakishly danceable tracks contained therein. a wholly original mashup of electronics, my heart rate rapid is sheer falsetto laden, drum battering brilliance. although metronomys elliptical, insidious, multi coloured art pop sounds nothing like colognes legendary purveyors of prog disco, can do offer clues to the lineage the band belong to. add early brian eno, sparks, devo, talking heads, soft cell, and then scratch your head for more recent examples of abstract music, full of experiment, risk, and individuality that somehow resolves itself into pop that makes you sing and dance and feel like a big kid and you realise that you cant think of any, because metronomy are, in the current pop milieu, an utterly unique proposition.

big support from: jimpster, manuel tur, milton jackson, lauhaus, audiofly, afrilounge, nick curly, reclick… the mannheim based label 8bit records celebrate their 10th release and welcomes joao lee and ale reis aka dubshape (two guys from brasil), with their first ep on this label. you better know these guys from their release on audioflys label >supernature<... huge groovy, deep – tech house infected tunes as we like it. the magic of this ep results in the fact that anyone can enjoy the energy.

belgian artist ludwig buez who has worked a long time under the soul preachers nickname is really happy to introduce komplement recordings, his fresh new electro minimal label. for the first release & asked french duo ginos & snake to remix his original track. on the a side, you ll find the original hypnotik electro track called cirkus. dark psychotic synth & great killer break gives to this track all the power & the emotion needed for massive crowd reaction. the remix from ginos & snake is a perfect exemple of how good these 2 guys can work with their gears! they did a more progressive construction, added raw synths & worked the main melody through special effects!

marset s newest oeuvre, hazard ep, is a trip, starting with drifting techno sounds, through swinging beats into a relaxing springtime track which is predestinated to start or to die away your set. there with he demonstrates how diversified an ep can be

by now dazzle drums and nite grooves are old friends. this being their 5th release on the label, the beat goes on and carries us with it. gypsyman turns out an organic bent out of shape (we didnt say warped!), percussive, almost dubby, instrumental delight. this is one of the definite moods one would hear at say, the shelter. its got that kind of clubby rhythmic organic vibe. call it what you will, we call it hot. tokyo deep that follows is a more upbeat instrumental full of synth moog sounds and overflowing washes. very car chase or early 80s stalk you cinema, catch the drama while you can!
