oh sheesh - it doesnt take genius to work out who was leading the tribe on this one! the flip contains a rick wilhite remix of the 90s classic urban tribe production, d2000 (originally a one sided 12inch on mowax). big record. rick wilhite and his vibes new&rare music record store have been a main source in detroit for over 17 years. his store is the place to go for many detroiters looking for new soulful, electronic music. and as a dj and promoter rick has been holding it down for years. next to that he mostly known for his affiliation with three chairs (together with kenny dixon jr & theo parrish) and for his solo recordings, under his the godson pseudo. now its time for rick to get his peers and friends in the mix for his first compilation, aptly titled vibes new&rare music. the compilation is spread out over four 12 inches, which will be followed by a compilation cd with exclusive tracks and features only the best of chicago and detroit electronic music. all tracks are new and exclusive

huge intergalactic extended techno jazz killer cuts with vladislav delay, max loderbauer (of nsi) & guests carl craig & francois k, 1st pressing comes in handmade sleeves & incl. cd as well.

yet another unmissable, under the counter trio of cuts, lovingly crafted from the most unusual of sample sources, combined with squeeky clean production values that make this a dancefloor dead cert. moonshine bears more than a passing resemblance to carl craigs monumental -throw- and ploughs an equally devastating groove, utilizing, of all things a chunk of glitter bands -makes you blind- on the flip the off-kilter but irresistble -revenge of the rock-o-mites- is a re-imagining of the lead track from the incredible rock city band’s impossibly rare electro-funk ep from 83 & sounds like allan parsons remixed by dexter. finally -why d you run away- skillfully reinterprets elements of flash & the pans -ayla- and is more than likely to be blasting out of many an adriactic boat party this summer massive

italian based eclipsemusics fourth outing comes with a serious release courtesy of passenger, talented artist whose productions can be heard on night drive music, paul macs sula muse, logos recordings and echoplexs soleil. this new 12 inch confirms his interest in the deepest and more underground side of detroit techno. >black varian< was the highlight of his digital-only release on radiance records back in 2008. eclipsemusics label manager instantly fell in love with it, and now, improved and remastered by aaron-carl (wallshaker, detroit), black varian finally lands on vinyl. with its evolving and ear-catching sweet strings, its delayed cascades of cymbals and pianos, swinging synth lines and subtle bassline, this is already a little new classic for the label, crossing the borders between detroit techno and deep, groovy house. the release is completed by two strong remixes: paul mac strips down the original and builds a dancefloor number keeping a few catching elements for massive impact. just out on connaisseur with her new album, estroe takes the track on an emotional ride creating new harmonic vibes while keeping the deepness intact.

ahhhh, mr mark e. arguably the leading light in the resurgent obsession with all things disco and slo-mo, convincing über tastemakers like giles peterson, as well as countless weekend warriors with his sonic sorcery. conjuring up edits that were so much more than edits, dropping smash hits like the janet jackson rework on golf channel, and the magnificnet womack & womack re-do on jisco, and more recently becoming remixer du jour as well as crafting equally impressive original music, not to mention kickstarting this, his very own imprint! >special fx< weaves snatches of mid-eighties magic into a lengthy groove-out with that patented mark e throb, whereas >christo< drives us down a decidely more detroit bound freeway, sounding as it does like carl craig remixing prince, well. you dont need us to tell this is the real deal folks!

big with laurent garnier, elliot dodge, angel molina, andy vaz, tomaz,… self defence return with more almost perverted deepness on our 3rd release. after lopaaz, don williams and russ gabriel on the first releases, sdf now strikes back with belgiums franco cangellis superb >raw emotions< remix ep. the mixes got re-emotionalized by dan curtin and russ gabriel who both are no strangers the variable world of electronic music – one could call them pioneers and thats clearly demonstrated in the result of these outstanding tracks. deep, groovin, nicely textured detroit funk, a very round affair and dj crate must have being the result. russ gabriel of ferox fame, recorded for most of the major techno forces of the 90s: carl craigs planet-e, peacefrog records, djax-up- beats, gpr, force-inc, soma recordings, new electronica and dave clarkes magnetic north, while dan curtin walked his path in the us with his own label metamorphic recordings, and with his profile on the rise, he eventually caught the attention of peacefrog in the mid nineties…

seven selected tracks, shows hells dj side, from techno , house to disco... a great variety... top rare cuts... masterpiece

much awaited return to lost trax! scsi-av has been a well respected electro and techno label since it was born in september 2008. almost 12 years later and after a short break scsi is back with a classy detroit techno record which has been sat in the vaults for quite some time waiting patiently to be released. as the second part of the lost trax series. expect deep bass, booming 808 kicks and carl craig-esque sounding strings. the production on both sides of this record is amazing showing the digital generation that analogue kit still sounds supreme. the lost trax series is a project for producers who have inspired the label to record something special and release anonymously as we dont believe its necessary to sell music on the strength of a specific artists reputation.

huge package with 8 mixes for bones classic >music< speech. >what happened to the music? i remember when we used to dance.< dj bone, trench, samuel l. session, dj 3000, rennie foster, santiago salazar, aaron-carl, stephen brown. colored vinyl.

ultraphat remixes by reboot & michel cleis!!! reboot starts with a drivin percussive floormonster !! the flipside by michel cleis, whose hypnotic >la mezcla< ruled the last season in ibiza, is more complex in the depth of its sound: with sensual quotes from a hammond organ and a lot of sound effects on the vocal track, cleis celebrates a form of soul-soaked techno jazz, whose perfection and versatileness rather could have been expected from a producer from the likes of carl craig.

tel avivs yoav b is back! a welcome return for this maverick producer on delsin records. after some years of silence we are proud to present new material by dj yoav b. if you dont know any of his singles, then you might know him from his underground cult hit >energize<, which got licensed to mix compilations by ame and carl craig. this is fifth full length single, again in his own freestyle sound. >higher love< sounds like house done by a passionate liquor store, with its lazy house beats and dramatic synthlines. >love dub< is a more freestyle beat jam, whereas >soul surrender< has a gritty moving bassline. welcome back!

the genesis for >best i can do< can almost be plotted to the first time skwerl heard paul randolph, on carl craigs cover of the stylistics people >make the world go round<

allen saei aka aubrey has over 22 years hands on experience of the scene. his dj career took him from his first residency in portsmouths central park, to playing londons biggest raves and parties in the 90s. launching his own solid groove records in 1990, aubreys career went from strength to strength. releases and remixes followed for labels including sublime, the end, ferox, mosaic, reel, intec and leftfields label, offshoot. his material was licensed by derrick may, terry francis, pete tong and carl cox. today he steps up with high pass highway ep. a selection of sounds, all with that oldskool touch and feel.

sebastien san is releasing his 3rd ep on echocord colour. again he presents a beautiful mixtur of the detroit sound and the more modern sound of dub techno.
>stellar winds< is a very beautiful full of strings and melodies perfectly for the afterhours for the fans of carl craig, while >continental< is a powerful dub techno track.
sebastien is also known from his releases on gigolo, planet e and rush hour.

both luke vibert and radioactive man are seminal electronic producers who always deliver with a flourish. they have continued to impress recently with viberts >we hear you< album for planet mu and radioactive mans >growl< album on his own control tower that was also picked up for fabrics in-house label. luke vibert puts a kerrier district spin onto his version of tudor disco, which will move your mind and your feet with its driving acid groove, while radioactive mans luscious remix of urgent takes its influence from carl craigs (69) track desire.

after the critical sucess of touch (an honest secret weapon for carl cox, shlomi aber, alan fitzpatrick, michel de hey, christian smith) hell yeah is proud to present the new 12 inch from a man on a mission to keep the true house sound alive and loud!! enzo elia awesomely produces and combines french touch, big drums, us house vocal hooks, deep tricky edits and, for all you true diggers out there, a big twisted sample

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

ron trents house classic >altered states< gets a two brand new remixes: one from ron himself (a massive 11 1/2 mins long) and one from fellow chicagoan terry hunter. plus you get the carl craig remix from the 1992 djax release as an added bonus. a taster for the upcoming cd

the revenge return to hometaping to expertly rework their debut release on the label. the awesome >forever in their debt< got props and heavy rotation on a variety of floors, so its time for round two ! a duo of seriously dancefloor friendly versions, the first >pitched down mix< fuses the early house-inspired vibes of the original version with a slo mo jacking disco feel that will work for disco divas and househeads alike. this version featured on his recent resident advisor dj mix and its release has been heavily anticipated. while on the flip things hit an all together more carl craig inspired deep warehouse vibe that will definitely move your body. two top workouts that will rule the floor! press play and feel the rhythms!

self defence proudly returns with our second release, with oldschool veteran russ gabriel. hes been releasing techno tracks since 1993, and has established a morethan- solid reputation through releases on his own liss, hampshire-based ferox (until 2000) and more recent sestra labels, as well as on carl craigs planet-e, peacefrog records, force-inc, soma recordings, mobilee records, and others. with ears wide open to techno pouring out of detroit, the netherlands, and elsewhere, gabriels done the global circuit as a dj and has laid down roots in detroit, london, and germany. the three-track novowooks ep finds him showcasing his ample talents on the sdf labels sophomore release

finish copy promo. spirit?s sister label to his ever prolific inneractive music, and if carl craig produced drum & bass 203 music would be the label he?d release on, detroit and soundscape inspired d&b, funky grooves and infectious bass lines, this is a great spirit record for fans and dj?s alike.

sa19 ep bring us a side with percussive anthem >la caja herramientas< with its growling sub baseline, into a full on dirty techno stomper with loads of essential breaks, edits, and filters for another sa powerful and distinctive dance floor bomb that will guarantee a rawkus. b side >ritmo magnifico< takes a more straight forward approach with its pounding vibe, funky hypnotic riffs, and filtered effects. the same side b2 track >con gusto< stormin track, with its haunting overtones, vocal stab, hypnotic deep sub bass that will cause dance floor pandemonium. enjoy and play this strong croatian ep!

the single follows in the wake of hells >the dj feat. p. diddy< which has won over floors and critics alike with its nearly 30-minute radio slave remix and fine work from the likes of deetron, jay haze and others. on >u can dance< hell and ferry have similarly pulled out all the stops for the remixes, gathering up work from the grammy-nominated producer carl craig, dfa mainstay tim goldsworthy and pop electro superstars simian mobile disco.

it was only a matter of time. two genre-defining artists together ... pop music and dance musics most famous arbiters of taste, collaborating at last. dj hells >u can dance< is an interpretation of an unreleased bryan ferry song, but its one that reflects a perfect melding of two distinct personalities, a record that sounds as if the voice and music were made for each other.
hell, of course, has been riding high on the success of >teufelswerk<, his masterpiece of a double album, a journey replete with fruitful experiments and club bombs. one that has yielded both massive hits and not a tiny bit of controversy along the way. ferry, meanwhile, has been as busy as ever—recording a new album, performing in places as far afield as siberia, opening up the cannes film festival ... basically just being bryan ferry.
and now here they are together ... it all started in 2006 when hell dropped in to meet ferry at his west london studio. at first they discussed hell remixing an old roxy music track, and then it turned into something else - something new (u can dance).
they had similar impressions of one another — hell: >i was impressed by his aura and his look.<, ferry: >he impressed us with his sophistication and charm.< fast forward a few years later, and hell is hard at work on teufelswerk and putting the finishing touches on the aforementioned song titled >u can dance<, a serpentine moroder-esque disco burner. with the help of old friend peter kruder, of kruder and dorfmeister fame, hell fashioned the song into a smoldering nine-minute highlight of the double disc set, in which ferry turns in a typically assured vocal performance.
ferry may seem like an unexpected fan of dance, but hes been going to clubs since he was a teenager, and in his lengthy career hes worked with legends such as nile rodgers of chic and david williams from michael jacksons band. >its always a pleasure to work with people from that genre, who follow a singular groove.<

metroline limited catches sonotheque pimping it. beautiful, rich synths and brass move right through this ep, bubbling through nice solid house grooves and soulful vocal cuts. >sugarblues< is the kind of house cut that technoheads go nuts for, with the loose, fluid structure of carl craig, the bump and grind of dj sneak and a smooth-as-a-babys-bottom sax line that runs the length of the track.

for intactos 24th release we welcome nicole moudaber. christened by john digweed as the >queen of dark house< as well as being named in many top djs techno charts – nicoles music clearly has a broad appeal. when carl cox was asked last month by dj mag who was the most underrated dj in 2009, he answered >nicole moudaber, ive been following her career for the last three years - her productions and djing. she s amazing.<

first release for 20:20 vision sublabel vintage vision, made in 2005 by wulf n flow aka ralph lawson & carl finlow.

part three of the cocoon 10inch series is all about the modern british techno scene, and the first hypnotic exclamation mark is set by yousef from liverpool. after collaborations with carl cox and x-press 2, >come home< - which can also be found on sven väths current ibiza review >the sound of the tenth season< - seems to become one of the most important tracks of the winter season 2009/2010: with a steadily rising crescendo, yousef is weaving around a >strings-meet-piano< motive with massive reverb that gives the tribal beats a deeper meaning and thus will be enchanting the clubs. the flip side belongs to london-based dj and producer tim green. he is releasing on labels such as four twenty, sci+tec and trapez for more than three years now and his co-production with emerson todd, >exercise<, even made it to cocoon compilation i. >lone time< lives on metal-like percussions that are loaded with adrenaline and once more prove the fact that modern techno cant go without tribal elements

next smashing housey project on frequenza limited. played by carl cox, mark knight, samuel l.session, popof, m.in, rampa, jens lissat, mathias mesteno, peter gelderblom, sarah main (pacha resident).
