psst! shtum is the new sublabel of dresdens uncanny valley and it is created for proper techno and raw house tracks, music best listened to in a room full of strobe light and fog. right at the start youll get monomood with three dark and powerful tracks. parameter one is one of those techno stompers you cant help but fiercely nod your head to. the lyrics in the crafter might suggest it but actually nobody is afraid of the dark. not even after hell breaks loose with unrelenting chords. also, vault takes no prisoners while keeping the cellar door shut with its nasty acid lines and raw drum work. the musical concept has been interpreted visually by aram haydeyan and uncanny valley artist jacob stoy.

another deception of abstract passions to the dancefloor, >cant hide< is a radical dancefloor experience of rhythms and messages from the past to the present of todays chaos! driven techno beats guide the listener trough 60ties science fiction filtered funk licks into the climax. on the b side you find a chaos of reanalyzed sounds from our sun system brother jupiter,the roland tr727 is here live jammed and launched inside warm pads and electrified bass-lines.

every sunday night, you tell yourself again.. next week >everything will change<, you will >slow< down, but then the next weekend comes around and you cant resist and you >get up and dance< again. >everything will change< has a melancholic but satisfied atmosphere. >slow< is a timeless track for any situation, and >get up and dance< has a very unique dynamic of sounds and drums that makes you kind of nervous, so that you can not wait any longer to grace the dance floor

cazumas yume is a delicately balanced trip, from a broke, raw groove towards the light. striving upwards all the way, higher through beautifully orchestrated pads, strings and chants. if you flip the record, you will find envie by mr raoul k. if you know raouls sound, you would probably find this one to be on the clubbier tip. bulding from a groove of raouls patented percussive arrangement comes an electronic sandstorm, from tiny stabs through a full on and freaked out break where the mighty beat is totally lost. and then back at it! this is really one of those tracks that you cant help yourself from playing whenever control is lost on the dancefloor, a gateway to the crowds inner animal.

as re-mixers, they have already made two fine contributions to schallbox-releases, now they finally get their own track on the swiss label. 12 most definetly belongs to the smalltown collective!
the name of the track is tiefblau and it speaks for itself: you are transported by a pushing, bass-generated pressure capsule down along a hypnotic groove line and into a deep blue ocean. the smalltown collective really exploit the merits of the acoustic stage here, pulling together a compelling and diverse set of notes and tones carefully arranged to amount to a track you just cant shake.
in his interpretation, dj le roi stays true and to the deepest blue dive atmosphere of tiefblau, yet manages to make it completely his own. unmistakably tieflblau, unmistakably le roi.
the page logo belongs to berlin-based producer david keno, whos signature lies in lacing floor-oriented beats with a distinct melodic aspect. with his unique and secret recipe, keno tweaks/ treats this track as he does with so many stomping house tracks with a laid-back vibe. guaranteed to work on any dance floor in the world!

limited to 250 copies !!! on august 4th 2011, the sony music warehouse in enfield, north london was attacked during riots and looting that affected many areas of the capitol over the course of a week. the warehouse burned down completely, taking with it millions of cds and vinyl stored by the distributor pias including the back catalogue of freerange. the blow was devastating for many labels, with the logistics of manufacture and minimal insurance payouts meaning that recreating the entirety of their old stock was completely impossible and many releases have been lost forever as a result.

limited double-pack from the mimique camp, contains these eps:
- mimique3: rekardo rivalo - cant get enough
- mimique5: various artists - mimique

this record flivvers vol.2 is the second volume in a story of the end of one love one life, and the beginning of a new love and new life even greater than i had known before. it is a story of total life transformation and risk taking. of following blindly ones own dreams and desires without fear. each song is giving you more detail to the events that transcribe my life into vinyl. you may not know now my name, you may not know my face, but if you know my music you know my life, my joys, and my sorrows. if you know my music you know my heart

born in canada, now residing in leeds, 21 year old producer nathan micay - bwana is the latest artist to join the somethinksounds roster. with zero production experience, bwana only started making tunes at the start of 2011. fast forward 18 months and he has already signed tracks to canadian label infinite machines (over and done ep), to mad decent imprint the jeffrees (cant you just / this is real) and featured upon the playlists of tastemakers mary anne hobbs, rob da bank and rinse fms monki.

new clone basement series (lucky number 013!) with the long awaited return of a made up sound (aka 2562), following up on his archive ep/cbs02. written as a counterbalance to the more experimental releases on his own amus label series, archive ii finally unleashes whats possibly his most banging, straight-forward club material to date, while retaining the trademark a made up sound funk and swing.hang-up is all about the irresistible herbie-injected groove, cut-up and layered to great effect, whereas things get darker and bass-heavier with technotrack sweetback on the flip. keeping the tension high till a drop towards the end, seven minutes never seemed so short. a great first number 013 release and we cant wait to hear some of our favourite djs play the tracks out loud. another proper banger on the clone basement series!

we are very exited to present two tracks that our danish resident artist mathias mesteno has send us. mathias has been part of the upon you family since day one. he occaisionally also released his classic and still very individual formed house tracks on freerange and tic tac toe records. if you count his collaboration with our uy boss marco resmann, then here comes his fifth release on upon you! the boulevard confessions ep comprehends two tracks. on a1 he is cooking in kekes kitchen an outrageous whorled open air slammer, which cant wait to be initiated on the beaches around the world. the b side- the concrete boheme seems more calm but finds its use and purpose as a deep-house track in the forests of modern styles. like always mathias suddenly rolls up the beat and is sure to surprise the consumer with unlikely rhythm variations. uy 062 in the house!

tony ollivierras issued a generous number of singles and eps under the ibex moniker on rushhour, planet e, yore, and his own ibex music, and now follows up his 2010 yore release, meltdown, with absolution, though this time under his birth name. no matter: ollivierras music sounds great, whether issued under his real name or an alias, and absolution is no exception. the infectious title cut gets things moving with a bass-powered blend of claps and funky rhythms before chunky house chords and silken synth figures add to the tracks multi-layered splendour. a jazzier dimension rises to the surface of quick release when the tunes churning hi-hats are joined by royally swinging electric piano playing and luscious synth pads.phase down opts for a purer deep house sound in its focus on kick drums, claps, and futuristic synths, though the track proves that ollivierras naturally funky side cant help but emerge, here as it does elsewhere.

our second release is the first solo ep from mia dora, >romanticise<. released on limited vinyl, this 4 track ep brings to life the mia dora sound, so carefully cultivated and realised over the last 12 months. drawing on a range of influences, they bring together the warm, subtle tones of garage, the deep impact of driving house, tinges of acid synths and the awkward hip hop inflected rhythms they are starting to make their own. each track leaves something to be discovered with each listen, refusing to stand still and switching up as they go. romanticise shows off the intricate and subtle approach mia dora take to club music, all the while making sure we cant help but dance. artwork comes courtesy of grampian mountains and swedish artist andy king.

groovy hypnotic deep house action

san gabriel is the new forward-thinking beat project from the multi-instrumentalist/producer butchy fuego. his upcoming ep volfe is full of warped and pulsing pan-global club music, a signature marriage of tropical riddims, dubbed out soundscapes and modern r&b minimalism. striking the perfect balance of booming bass and tricky rhythms, our first taste from the upcoming ep >gore text< makes for some serious sideways heat. san gabriel has caught the attention of the press early on with signature frantic rhythms and twitchy hi-hat work. along with >gore text<, san gabriel offers up a b-side (not on volfe) called >nu boots< that evokes some aztec sun rave in the year 2040 vibes. just a fiery taste of whats to come on this upcoming debut ep volfe.

excellent soul classic on collectors 7 inch

we think everything we release on frijsfo is fresh. at the same time we believe it doesnt hurt to stay in touch with your roots, which is something buzzin10 does in a fascinating way. we cant tell you much about this young producer from east london, a publicity-shy individual whose music we first heard thanks to his older brother. but we do know he pieces together rhythms by sampling fragments from old tape packs – mainly garage nations late 90s recordings of some of the best djs of all time, including dj ez, karl tuff enuff brown, dj luck & mc neat, and ray hurley.
dj support so far comes from sully, desto, oslek, warlock, kingthing, resketch, rk and ltf (wifey ldn), cardopusher, valta, dusk & blackdown

second part of recycling a la bau, heavy food this time with heavy percussion and rassling rides throughout the whole track. trikeracing is far beyond control, this track is a soundexplosion, nothing less. shuffleracing is a bit more reduced featuring a different groove and focussing on the sawtooth theme of the basic version. two more killers, no fillers, again on credo! nice feedback and support by faki, liebing, bodzin and many more, but the most defining feedback by mr. gary beck, no other words could describe it in a better way: by goodness me the trikeracing is wicked!! thats some heavy shit there. at the right moment i cant wait to play this! ... word!
