techhead brings you a brandnew release straight from the ancient lands of greece! dj preach (relic, concept, patterns, yin yang) is responsible for the big a-side, a track in pure preach style, with a massive build up and trancy noises that bring you to a big climax. perfect for those outdoor festivals.. spiros kaloumenos from greece turns this track into a groovin techno monster adding the usual spiros funk into it. budai and vic taking the track a bit further even, combining the funk and the trancy sounds of the original.

you re the one is the first single taken from his forthcoming album as high as the sky which will be released on wagon repair in may. baby you re the one is fast out of the blocks with racing percussion and a plunging bass loop. a piercing metallic tone encircles a distorted vocal sample as subtle melodies rise to the surface of the mix, steadily intensifying to climax. on the flip side, crackbeat is a darker animal. kindling wild percussion carries an eerily distant key melody that supports a rich synth siren. teeming with activity, the synth melody is trailed by bubbling bass tones as a feral percussive drive chases to close.

supported by 2000 and one, anja schneider, jesse rose, loco dice, shlomi aber, trickski, tobi neumann, to name a few.. once again theres a real nod to the old school here in a track inspired by arthur russell. rich, warm analogue pads and subtle fx flashes from the space echo build an enchanting groove. the intensity gradually develops with sounds slowly evolving, lending a deep hypnotic feeling to proceedings, until the chord progression opens out and you cant help but smile. a genuine end of night anthem and when dixon does his own edit you know your onto something special... version: double for your money, with an extra version of the original that doesnt open out into the full stabs and maintains a deeper groove. martin landsky remix: with a tight, tribal tom pattern and straight ahead groove martin landsky achieves a darker more spaced out feeling with his remix. he pushes the pads to a dubbed out climax without fully opening out the progression and this fully hits the spot. martin landsky has been making waves as a dj and producer since the mid-nineties and is one of the key producers at steve bugs excellent poker flat recordings and running his own intim records.. hes compiled many mix cds for labels such as poker flat, systematic and the partysan compilation series. his debut album was >in between< for pokerflat and since then hes remixed the great & good as well as producing several stunning releases and jetting about with his box of records

its almost 4 years to the day that jeff samuels >throatwobbler mangrove ep< was released on karloff #03, and even today the four world hits of the record are getting digged out by djs, when the minimalism needs to either groove or jack again. so now with >return of the throatwobbler< theres finally an appropriate follow-up by the man from seattle.. erm.. berlin, after he’s impressively run riot in the meantime, on labels like spectral, trapez, poker flat, frankie and logistic. the a-side >terso< is shuffling and twirling and bouncing in such a winsome way that not many can master like jeff samuel. almost like an electric ray - left and right and left, and without letting any tempting gimmicks take the mind off the straight path. appropriately enough, >the spook< on the b-side comes along a bit more spookily, with a bassline twisting into the brain, ripped up by miniatures of bleeps and chords just in the right moments, and thus leading the track to an agile, exhilarated climax

coming up with a mixture of drumfunk elements, dubstep vibes and old school sounds, martsman is the new kid on the block that will prove you wrong if you thought youve heard it all in drum & bass. >kontamin< is a journey back to the good old days when jungle didnt have the obligation for constant climax that is found in most drum & bass tunes today

when iridite started out they really wanted it to represent a wide selection of electronic music - at the time, many of the bigger labels (and many independent ones too) seemed content to pigeon hole everything, generating sub label after sub label, each with its own micro-scene or genre. over the years we feel we ve done a pretty good job of steering clear of the obvious but we were still lacking a little in one important area - house music. although >ga< isnt straight down the line standard house music, it s instrumentation, simple repeating bassline and beats give forward motion that fits nicely with a more old school version of house along with some percussive vocal stabs and eventually, a huge synth string climax- like a cross between early ron trent, fingers inc and kenny larkin. the b side gives us two tracks from one of the most talented young producers working in the field today - jamie greer, who s tha poke guise gave us one of the highlights of ir004 (uncommon sense), moves >fall fwd< in strong style with his unique take on the (original) detroit sound - remaining completely individual, his sound is instantly familiar and yet never derivative or tired. both tracks have the energy to survive on the dance floor but the subtlety and depth to bear repeated listening at home - proper techno

if someone had to describe the sixth release from pascal feos album >synaptic< with one word, >bassline< would be the one that fits. the a side >ausklang< is dominated by a sawtooth >bassline< which modulates more and more to reach her climax shortly before the break. the b page >stargazer< begins with a techno groove to change later by a charmingly lascivious >bassline< into a nice floating tune. as a bonus we have on b2 a nice >acid bassline< , which reminds of that man from the >jackcity<, regarding to the title > mr f <.

now consisting only of jay haze, the fuckpony project ventures into the deepest, darkest recesses of house music s underground to deliver two rough and raw club tracks on the first of two 10-inch releases. >hot slave< comes straight from the warehouse, its rough beats and heavy claps laying the basis for an acid line that tweaks and morphs itself into a wild, spinetingling climax. >tiny slave< is just as primal: a rumbling, menacing bass and tight percussion provide the backing for a scary riff that keeps building and building i nto a grungy, dark climax. these are proper jacking tracks from one of electronic music s new players and the moment that the needle drops on the first installment of dark side, you ll be a slave to fuckpony s rhythms!
