enemy returns from the summer hiatus with a huge remix package courtesy of tony rohr & par grindvik! tony takes the hypnotic groove and brings it up to the surface, reformed as a bouncey club rocker similar to his output on clink! par grindvik wastes no time as his remix immediately plunges into the depths of the abyss, offering up an equally weird and rewarding listening experience. we would describe it, but it s kind of impossible!

patrick begins with his techno bomb “tooth n nail”, a track that showcases a heavy detroit influence with smooth synth work reminiscent of productions from robert hood and carl craig. midway through the track, patrick keeps us guessing with a wobbly synth line that adds playfulness to an otherwise straightforward, moody journey. an understated use of serene female whispers throughout gives this tracks techno classicism a fresh sound. next patrick gives us “davinches”, a chugging tech-house track that pairs a deep, buoyant bass line with a tight, resonant kick, giving it a dynamic groove. patricks tight percussion work keeps things moving with its rims, clicks, and ticks set against a spooky, playful melody that energizes and propels the track to its finish. fans of guido schneider won’t want to miss this one! on the flip, nyc’s elon of clink recordings fame, and a newcomer to klectik, takes on remix duties with a minimal techno take on patrick’s “tooth n nail”. elons version is a pulsating, stripped down mind-bender marked by sub-bass and the sporadic clangs of raw machinery — sexy! this remix maintains the smooth character of patricks original in melodic sensibility, but stands on its own via sparse rhythmic patterns resulting in a deeper, moodier treatment.

loved by loco dice, david squillace, camea, butane, tim xavier, alexi delano, andrew grant,… clink captures the summer vibe with an installation by british tech-house talent, mark henning! this rising star is on fire after a successful album project last year on soma, as well as recent releases on frankie, trapez and tic tac toe. mark is undeniably >hot< right now, and gaining a lot of attention for his hip, bouncy and melodic tunes that are becoming essential late night/open-air hits. with his packed release schedule there is no doubt that henning is putting a permanent imprint on quality dance music

clinks next installation brings a new artist to its catalogue, featuring the work of new yorks acclaimed brooklynite, adultnapper. these tunes are loaded with buoyant percussion and peak-time concepts via synthesizer sampling and manipulation, hence the title, >borrowed keys<. adultnapper is most recently noted for his highly publicized mix compilation and release on steve bugs label, audiomatique, and in addition to clink he has work coming up on pokerflat and crosstown rebels. he is also the owner of the ransom note imprint, and through many years of dedication to the nyc tech-house/minimal scene, he has become a new york underground icon. he first captured our eyes nearly 7 years ago for his insanely popular sunday boat parties in manhattan, titled matter:/form, which later became a tech-house imprint featuring many of the uk icons such as terry francis and eddie richards

cameas latest clink release has arrived, featuring an alexi delano rework. this eloquently produced ep resonates between minimal, techno and tech-house, and hits the spot for both peak-time and after-hour moods. camea has been hot on the dj circuit this year, and this release is a great tribute to the growing following for her performances. titled >happy ending<, it hits the spot with heady melodies, dark vocals, a touch of soul and irresistible percussion for the dance floor. alexi delanos remix on the b-side delivers an artistic and trackie techno burner that compliments this ep with a flattering perspective. it is a fantastic addition to his long list of heavily rotated masterpieces, including high profile contributions to labels such as plus 8, items and things, spectral, drumcode and frankie records. this combined release is a hot item for djs and collectors.

excellent peak time minimal techno ... leicht detroit angehaucht.... killer !! played & supported by mihalis safras, perc, maxime dangles, oscar, pierce, oliver klein, gianni vietello, rebekah, steven beyer! biggest fish in the sea! the title largemouth bass sounds like something about the bassinstrument, but its also a type of fish, very popular in north america. secret spot is a fisherman slang word, so who’s gone fishing the biggest bass? rio padice! with remixes by elon (dumb unit, clink) and gary beck (soma, m_nus) this collection is a wonderful mixture of minimal house and techno. all told a great ep.

drumcode continues its strive for excellence with this new 2 tracker from one of the hottest techno talents around right now - tony rohr. his recent huge releases for the likes of clink and plus 8 have caused quite a stir as well as his countless quality productions before that. the two tracks themselves are perfectly geared for drumcode with their twisted techno sensibility yet dancefloor appeal. expect massive support from the techno masses

elons latest release on clink is another peak minimal groover, properly set to kick off their 2008 catalogue! these tunes are a great addition to the label, following the compelling tripped out burners from the afternoon coffee boys and camea at the end of last year. noose is a fantastic extension of these releases and will appeal to the techno, minimal and techhouse folk. elons unique sound and courageous combination of these three sub genres make him one of new yorks most interesting new producers, and he has become an established and valued contributor to this imprint.

the space dzz aka jamie bissmire and ben long are back with phat kickin techno !! the space djz discography reads like a whos who of techno labels. from the incredible novamute, to innovative champions soma, belgian techno leaders re-load and chris mccormacks materials, jamie bissmire and ben long have given us consistent quality for over ten years now. as a techno outfit, they dont come much bigger than this.

another bomb that will definitely not make it through airport security undetected. explosive kicks serenade a nasty acid line over a signature dalessandro-style vocal. this peak timer is no holds barred techno armageddon. new york based clink rec artist elon makes his debut appearance for the siteholder team with a storming remix. twisted effects, a unique take on the vocal, and a pulsating bass line define this hard-hitting approach. fearless in its pursuit and certainly without any room for prisoners, this re-working of >are you there< comes out of the gate sprinting and never lets down. another successful new york-chicago connection has been made. rounding out the ep, brian ffar follows up his highly successful >ballroom hustler< ep with a take on the single reflecting his cultivated production style. an atmospheric tech house approach reveals well-placed synths over the drawn out vocal from the original. but dont assume this is child s play, ffars kick drum isnt afraid to pummel a club systems subs. the avalanche inducing bass line that follows caps off this fifth siteholder record with a very clear message: >are you there< is serious business

tim xavier and tony rohr are back with another genre-pushing release on clink. acclaimed for its original sound, this label has brought us unique imprints for the last two years and is still heading at full-force. goodbye fort greene is another afternoon coffee boys massive, and my drunk foot is a quirky, rousing minimal twister to >freak they minds<. these tunes have been hammered by the clink team all summer and are finally making their way to the shelves this fall

klickhaus gains momentum with this trippy, late night minimal endeavor for their third release, produced by now m_nus artist, ambivalent. this is ambivalent s second ep, the first being on klickhaus successful sister label, clink recordings, titled >roomies< , and he again proves himself as a name to watch out for this year. ambivalent has a unique, rhythmically diverse and funky style that can be mixed in many different arenas and always has an element of personality to each piece, which makes it a unique experience in dj sets. on the remix side, camea takes the original to the next level by stripping down the rhythm and adding a peak time chromatic pattern to the bubbling lead tone provided by ambivalent. camea s unique style adds a great diversity to this ep. dj emerson is the techno gentleman of the berlin underground scene for quite a while now, on this 12inch he provides a stellar re-work somewhere between house and techno to palindrome

tony rohr needs no introduction. his releases on clink, cocoon, dipolter,hidden agenda, and weave speak for themselves. >db revenge< is seductive minimal adventure. rohr begins with his dynamic drum work with flips and edits. tight flanged bass highlights. the hook moves its way up in the mix. all together now jack. this one will be stuck between your ears for months. our remix is courtesy of camea (clink recordings/klickhaus). washing the mix in digital reverb camea continues to tease with original elements worked with her signature dry drum hits. advancing beyond the track grabs for your feet and never touches back down. also included is a bonus track of just the db synth. have fun everyday

tony rohr is at it again with his signature rhythms and glitchy, driving minimal sound that has been steadily gaining him recognition worldwide. as expected from mr. rohr, this ep is a two track burner with spacey cadences, mind bending peaks and groovey drops in all of the right places. as a master of his craft we expect nothing less from him. this is tony s first solo ep on clink, previously releasing with tim xavier as the afternoon coffee boys on 001 and 004. the kreuzberg krunk ep firmly establishes tony as a driving force in the unique and increasingly popular sound of this minimal imprint

this anticipated clink release is produced by new yorks long time minimal techno connoisseur, ambivalent aka kevin mchugh. this ep, titled >roomies<, shows the diversity of this fast rising minimal label by adding stripped down, dynamically percussive yet funky tracks to their archive of releases. this ep is a crate essential for minimal techno lovers this fall
