having hinted at upcoming collaborations on blkrtz over the last months in several interviews, deadbeat finally makes good on his promises offering an epic piece of heaviest dub business featuring the unmistakable vocoder stylings of canadian danuel tate of cobblestone jazz fame. title track lazy jane locks in a murderously tight 135 bpm steppers rhythm sure to appeal to fans of both the burial mix series and malas most head down exploits for dmz alike, with tates heaven streaking vocal elevating it to the realm of instant classic from the very first drop. the flipside s 909 dub meanwhile sends the originals synth and vocal lines deep into the echo chamber atop a reinforced version of the bass line and unrelenting 909 drum pattern to create the most classist, purified slice of big room dub techno you are likely to here all year.

>night and day< is the first single from hot chips forthcoming album, in our heads.
the single is a piece of classic hot chip weird-ass superfunk disco, driven by a menacing yet supremely danceable rubberized bassline. its the sound prince would be making had he grown up just south of the thames.
it is zapp not zappa.

any fan of drum & bass will know the name cyantific. having built a reputation as a leader of the new school d&b generation, jon stanley is now approaching a decade of releasing incredible music thats equally at home on the dance floor as it is on your ipod or in your car. last year saw cyantific unleash an incredible single for ram records, as well as bounce it / obey on his own self-titled cyantific record label. here we have the follow up to that release and its undoubtedly another exciting 12 inch, packed with plenty of cyantifics trademark energy. effortlessly combining sharp production skills with graceful musicality, you can always be assured that a new cyantific record is one to watch out for and this new single is certainly no exception. mirador takes the lead, opening with huge sweeping sound fx and a bouncing synth line that harks back to a classic ram sound. its not long before you notice cyantifics signatures though, as he brings in vocal snippets and washing pads that gradually build and grow before a monster bassline drops into the mix. this one undeniably straddles the line between restrained musical class and outright dance floor mayhem. on the flip side defect comes in at an infinitely more paranoid level. strings are infused with urgency and rolling breaks thunder along, dragging you kicking and screaming towards the inevitable drop. you wont be disappointed when it hits either, grinding bassline sections are juxtaposed with obsessive synths, all pulling you deeper into cyantifics musical world.

hardcore remake by angerfist and prophet of this 1997 marshall masters & ultimate mc classic, an inspiration not juyt for scooters >maria<!

introducing club constructions, a new series of releases that will operate alongside night slugs main eps and white label series. a new home for our most direct productions, cc will run as a channel for raw and tracky material aimed straight for the dancefloor. the first cc volume comes from l-vis 1990. hot on the heals of his >neon dreams< lp, l-vis dives further into the house music whirlpool, drawing on classic dance mania and underground construction vibes (think robert armani building trax for 2012) to deliver 5 tape-saturated, strictly-analog slices of modern-day ghetto hard house. strictly for peak time use!

we celebrate our number 30 with a double pack, featuring one of the creators of techno in spain: groof.roberto gemelin, from madrid, is groof. hes robert calvin too. no matter which of his alias you know him by, hes one of the most active producers in the madrid arena.aka robert calvin, he released materials with turbo (tigas label) in 2004, having previously collaborated with star whores in a joint release with alek stark (2002). also important are the remixes he did for disko b or for sindicato records and msx, paying tribute to megabeat with his recreation of the great classic strange.his background as groof is even more extensive, as his early steps go back to the times of minifunk (the cheeky and shameless label from barcelona that was then managed by omar and dj loe). with them he recorded mambo! (1999) and i want you(2000). he has also recorded with warmup, fieber, rainwaves or shareware records.at the end of the ninetees groof shared quite unusual with oscar mulero: the start of a deep friendship that nowadays brings us wu30 mini-album.

amazing 4 tracks from one of the original deep house music hero vincent floyd. classic deep house as praised by dj deep, ron trent, chez damier

andres zacco & marco zenker, rosario & munich, argentina vs germany. an old football classic since ever again. in this case here its less about vs or vst, way more about teaming up for a split ep and wiping on another debate between daves place and pompaks knee shirt. while andres is selling knee shirts every summer at rosario citys hotspot el putito del calore, marco could directly move into dave s place as he spent more time there in 2011 then daves couch. must be the schlachthof vibe or simply daves roomate cooking for the boys. simply wonderful mix between bavarian & argentinan carnecerias. the cuts are huge and fat as always. played by everyone instead of nobody. grazie per tutti - esperanza label el records.

new years deal - genius of time, axel boman & sankt goran deliver three hot and updated versions of the 93 deep house classic i got this feeling by urban soul aka roland clark..! renowned deep-house duo genius of time takes a few steps uptempo on the a-side. stripping the melodics of this one, leaving roland solo floating on a querky bassline surrounded by their patented cosmic universe. on the flipside, axel boman adds moody chords and trippy dub effects, giving the track the baby-making-treat it deserves. label head sankt görans remix takes it back close to the original, a steady 707 beat, deep bassline and some filtered rhodes that evolves as the track progresses

hip shakin mama ep is a 300-copy, strictly vinyl release, which precedes the forthcoming polar pair album. the common thread of the ep is an old-school-meets-new-school approach. all the tracks draw their inspiration from classic moments in dance musics history, while applying an up-to-date sound and production.

as the story goes ame & dixon heard osunlade play envision out in america, were completely bowled over by it, rushed the dj booth and immediately asked to remix and release it. they did and it turned out to be quite possibly the biggest record of 2011. to coincide with the release of the osunlade in the house compilation defected have re-released the record with brand new remixes ensuring that this summer will be once again dominated by the vocal sounds of envision. argys vocal and dub take things into classic mid 90s new york-esque territory, garage sounding bass line, looped vocal intro… if you didnt know any better youd be forgiven for thinking that was from the hand of a certain mark kinchen

vanguard sound is back with its newest record. chris mitchells phrenetic ep is vanguard sounds second release. coming on the heels of the wildly popular vanguard sound vol. 3, this ep continues to uphold the aesthetic created with the first release, while simultaneously expanding it. the phrenetic ep features four tracks from the mind and studio of a quickly rising north american talent that all walk the fine line between house and techno. all are very complex rhythmically, with both banging drums, and lush tones. a perfect 3 way marriage of classic chicago, detroit, and new york vibrations, the record contains set peaks, as well as transitional tracks that allow djs to traverse from house to techno and back. already receiving massive amounts of positive feedback, this ep is proving to be a more than worthy follow up to vs001.

with two highly successful eps on gamm our stockholm turntable master will-rock is now back with his 3rd and in our opinion strongest ep.
this time he takes on beyonce, hooking up her vocals with a classy maceo funk classic. on the flip hubby jay-z gets his revenge when his 99 problems classic gets funked up with fatback bands >wicky wacky<. trust us … this one rocks the party big time! as a bonus we also left you with a nice edit of the original >wicky wacky< jam as well.

long time tsuba artist okain makes a welcome return to the label with the oclock ep. the original and no string dub show a deeper side to okain centering around classic house strings and bassline. tsuba has a great reputaion for truly killer remixes and gerd (clone / royal oak) lives up to that and then some! the huge bassline and hypnotic melodies show why after many years in the game. 2012 is definitely the year of gerd

we would like to present: norm talley the mystic ep(tm-015). this classic piece of vinyl has been one of tmrs most requested eps since its original release in 1999. circles is a deeply rooted detroit dance scorcher blended with 70s soul influences. vi-bray-shun rmx is compiled of long melodic chords, driving bass and vocal stabs, with a 2012 twist. innerpeace shines through with a melodic groove no different in todays standards even after 13 years! the mood groove! norm talley at his finest, deep in the motor city.

2012 is the time for john lord fonda to come back to the light, starting with a huge techno ep >bang the fire!<, including two original tracks bang and >heaven s on fire< both with a minimal techno imprint. this new release is the first extract from his forthcoming album, scheduled for 2012.
>bang< open the tracklisting, a classic john lord fonda track, energetic like always as even if he takes time, he drives us in the end in huge orgasmic breaks, quite intensive…,. then we continue with a kazyo (from teenage bad girl) remix that delivers a dancefloor epileptic killer version. electric rescue is fascinated by the energy of techno music, so he did a very minimal but powerful version.

check the guns are back with the second to last instalment in their tape edit series. it is onwards and upwards for 004 where side one sees a deconstructed work out of the fatback bands >the girl is so fine<. track 2 >house down< is a no holds barred party tune for the discerning dance floor that will do all the work for you. on the flip >sugar samba< is a rework of the london records classic from julia and co. finishing off we have an edit of heatwaves >super soul sister< which is a gem of a vocal funk track that gives as good as it gets and leaves you wanting more.

transmissions from the cyber dance imprint have been sporadic since its inception in 2005, but when they arrive they are always something very special indeed. ostensibly one of italo discos great lost producers, we suspect that bandidos gang may well be a nom de plume for one of the labels many associates. whatever their provenance, the tracks certainly sound like vintage italo, with >marinche< leading with a pulsating bass arpeggio and synth horn melody worthy of moroder, whilst the flemming dalum & steen gjerulff remix adds layers of vocoder and a variety of cosmic accents to its sturdy frame. >last train to tucamari< meanwhile takes a more languid approach, pulling in an opposite direction to the speeding train samples, whilst flemming dalum & mike saltas remix adds some guitar licks, hazy synth atmospherics and even a flute solo which just adds to the classic italo feel.

spearheaded by stuart leath, emotional rescue is a label committed to unearthing forgotten gems and giving them the exposure they richly deserve, with all releases officially licensed by the artist and remastered in full. this 12 inch sees two classic tracks by the world music collective suns of arqa take pride of place. incorporating elements of raga and dub, >brujo magic< is a much more straightforward dancefloor number than its description would suggest, with its rolling bassline and vocoder effects fusing irresistibly with its psyche-rock styles. on the b-side, >ananta snake dance< combines traditional indian percussion and harmonium with conventional drumming to create something completely unique. a strong start to what will no doubt be an indispensable label.

tresor records marks its 250th release with a very special project indeed. continuing to forge ahead whilst remaining ever mindful of its legacy, tresor proudly presents infiniti - the remixes: a trilogy of classic cuts and new reworks from one of its original detroit linchpins juan atkins.

lando kal (a.k.a. antaeus roy), one half of bay area electro duo lazer sword, follows up maneuver, his 2011 debut for hotflush, with two cuts overflowing with the darkness of a long berlin winter. a major player in both san francisco and new yorks underground club scenes, landos love of r&b, dark jungle, detroit techno and classic house is front and center on these two bass heavy productions. the infectious rythym sektion comes on strong, lando expertly weaving the vocals of the 1991 rave classic hinted at in the title with threatening drums and kinetic percussion. on the flip, landos dynamism is on display, as inquisitions syncopated beats swagger along, insistent and knocking, drawing you into its multi-layered paranoid rhythms. lando kal has released on respected labels numbers, rush hour, sugarcane recordings, still cold, and has remixed the likes of sepalcure, hovatron, salva, sepalcure and doc daneeka. up ahead, lookout for a single dropping on leisure system, the notorious berghain party collective and label.

the magic of classic house music has always lain in the way it finds a soul in the machine, eking warm organic sounds from cold circuitry. and tracks dont come much warmer or more organic than >oranges<, a glorious eight-minute slow-burner thats the second single from wolverhampton producer mark es 2011 release stone breaker. >oranges< is a track that demonstrates how the simplest of ingredients — a quietly insistent four-to-the-floor rhythm, an understated bassline, synth pads that sound like the first intimations of a balearic sunrise — can combine to create something remarkable. anyone who has got the cd/digital release of stone breaker, of course, will know this already — but this release is the first chance to own this track on vinyl, as it was absent from the albums lp release. on the flipside is a remix of >oranges< by mark e himself: the appropriately-named space dub, a lindstrøm-esque reworking that transports the track from the dance floor to some distant orbit, drifting through space on a wash of lambent fuzz-toned synths. as different as they are, both tracks share a sense of both space and intimacy, a mellow charm that is evocative and inclusive. a soul in the machine.

masami akita and lasse marhaug have been working together since the mid 90ies. the first release on marhaugs (now deleted) label jazzassin records in 1995 was the >first rock< split single. in 2001 merzbow and jazzkammer (marhaugs project with john hegre) released a live album. later, akita and marhaug executed several live collaborations, but often with other artists such as hair stylistics and jim o rourke. in 2010 they finally got together to record as duo. recorded at gok sound studios in tokyo the results can now be heard as >mer mar<.
made using a combination of scrap metal screeching, analogue synths, and enough effect pedals to give you overweight with most airline companies, >mer mar< is a tour de force for both of these noise veterans, hinting to some classic 80s merzbow jams such as material action.
