massive 1975 live production!! comes in original double 12inch gatefold cover version!!

this brand new and long awaited follow up 12-inch single release by off the record is finally here! its been quite a while since their first release >robot gang ep< (sen-003) came out and took the dancefloors by storm. all the wait has been well worth though, as this talented duo is back on track with their trademark rough & raw drum sounds, killer breaks and bridges. such elements can be found directly from the starting track >tel aviv – japan<, which combines nicely minimalist techno / house sound architexture with simple, yet effective groove, and it grows humble and slowly to reach up its peak moment what goes like: splash! in ya face! there you have it! guaranteed to lighten up any dancefloors, it s dangerously explosive and has amazing flavour on the rocks! having said that, on demand producer and remixer ran shani (crosstown rebels, breastfed, cr2 records) was kind enough to contribute his absolutely fabulous and fantastic remix work of >in your mind< track. he pushed the track to the next level and came up with a truly club oriented pulsating dance track with extra crispy and tasty beats. rotating 360 degrees panorama effect on female vocals coming in as the track rolls further right after the break is surely enough to explode some minds on the dancefloors. watch this man out! perfect end to an extended play here is the only track offering a mini lovestory: >shes lost her mind> is a true and cold hearted, crucial story about a tech savvy clubgirl falling in love in a binary world full of zeros and ones, finding computers and turin machines sexually more attractive companions to better have fun with rather than getting accustomed to that old fashioned missionary position carried out by her human boyfriend. floating, dubby and rather melancholic, but definitely not a sad song! but one thing is for sure regarding that twisted story after all: someone has truly lost her mind somewhere along the way …

great summer food for djs / minimal stuff from mexico / plays by karotte

americas next generation of techno producers make their droid debut on this release. dustin zahn who has reincarnated himself from the stone cold sounds of labels such as compound to the powerful yet refined style of his current releases on drumcode and mindshake turns in one hell of a dark builder. analog god starts off with a sharp rimshot / snare combination then adds just the right amount of tresor style synth menace for a viciously addictive groove that doesnt stop kicking.

moving away from the multi artist approach of the previous 7 releases, ir-008 sees jason brunton take a more direct approach to the dancefloor with this straight up techno workout. stabbing chords run amok over a xxl moroder-esque bassline-hints of basic channel, carl craig and the shuffling rhythms all combining to create something both fresh and familiar at the same time. since his initial outings on headpace and iridite many years ago, marco bernardis career has went from strength to strength with a string of releases on glasgows soma records and a fruitfull relationship with the dutch masters clone- here he takes mixed metaphors in a new direction- crazed synthetic vocals combine with ice cold strings and electro beats worthy of any aux 88 or kraftwerk release! rei loci turns in a superb reworking, moving into deeper realms and coming off like early robert hood crashing into maurzios back yard!

dj support by adultnapper & matthias kaden !! cynosure is proud to present the debut ep of one of italys finest house and techno djs, andrea fiorito. hailing from the southern city of bari, andrea brings new warmth to the otherwise ice cold italian house sound and delivers a timeless deep house original. things commence on >moderato mistico< with a subtle tribute to a close a friend that has some serious issues with partying called >boti world<. a stripped down minimal house groove with several different monster bass hooks. a killer bumping, grinding, walking bassline that heats the floor with every change up. but as we all know this is not enough to really push things to the limit, so andrea answers the call and brings the furry with givan on the sax. imagine that moment where things in your night boil over the edge and you begin to loose control. thats when givans post punk style sax attack begins to push things past the threshold of insanity. next we have the lovely >betty loop< feat the sensual voice amelia saul. a layer of percussion a la spring reverb set the pace leading into some piano chords and a giant bass hook that make up the foundation of the groove, laying the sonic rose pedals down for amelias presence to be heard. with a voice sweeter than honey and some twisted lyrics, she creates a sexy yet warped feeling in this track. and of course if the vocals were too much, you can play the dub version >betty goes to gio< and mix your heart out. with >moderato mystico< andrea fiorito lights the deep minmal house flame for cynosure closing the summer releases in style by producing heat that only a southern italian can. howie mangel

nasty & stripped down 808-heavy house cuts… big with all deep hypnotic house diggers! >dear john, hope you remember me, its laverne radix. im in oslo now. sometimes it gets cold but in my mind i hear the pa pounding of dick control. you were right, its for life! and that keeps me hot at night. you & me were getting down last summer to that low end bass and the high hats, scattered all around my body, got us closer. we were sweating so bad... i didnt want to say it... but p.s. i love you always, laverne<

incl spartaque remix !! contemporary techno bass line meets the whistles from early days of rave culture, cold and clear synthetic lead transforming and pulsating on the solid kick drum

a side feat classic house mash tracks!!! flip for a big room oriented more trancy b side!!

he soul mechanik brothers operating under their creative use name have taken a pair of stone cold underground club classics and extended and amended them for modern use. cat stevens >was dog a doughnut< has appeared several times over the years in many shapes and sizes, this definitive extended version has to be up there with the best of them though, allowing the dislocated funk of the original to simmer away before reaching boiling point. similarly riuchi sakamoto’s timeless classic >riot in lagos< should be mandatory listening for anyone with an interest in electronic music, an absolute masterpiece in it’s original form, this version takes the meat of the track straight to the dancefloor where it’s turned into a juicy electrofunk sandwich of tastily huge proportions

the soul mechanik brothers operating under their creative use name have taken a pair of stone cold underground club classics and extended and amended them for modern use. african frog charity is a cunning rework of the ridiculously rare 1985 tam tam pour l’ethiope’ track, a futuristic afrobeat throwdown featuring a collaborative artist list that would make any african music enthusiast blush >bounty girls< takes kid creole’s >annie< and manages to eek out the afro vibe from the calypso based ingredients of the original...

a funky peak hour pair of goodies. doo kicks off the ep with its rubbery bassline, keys, jerky rhythm and sustained strings that provide the male chant, doo doo doo a comfortable bed to bounce on. the meat of the track contains a lengthy piano solo by antonio di mauro driving the point home. full of drops and fills that build the energy then releases it ferociously. anthem is exactly what the title suggests. it is another 2am jump off (musically that is!) jam. the deep bass & dense kick supports the 80s styled chicago jackin snares, the persistent hi hat and intermittent piano strikes meshing well with the watery bleep sounding keys and string stabs. the melody of the bass gets redirected as the twinkling keys create a sense of tension for the samba ish breakdown. nimble fingered, antonio di mauro is at work again, producing a sound reminiscent of patrick adams styled keyboards from his legendary phreek lp. ends cold. supported by: dj spen, deli g, roger sanchez, joey negro, dj pope, kenny carpenter, franck roger, dj yass, master kev, mark stone (udm show), groove assassin, sven love, davidson ospina, dj dealer, timmy vegas, dan (liquid people), deep josh, danny marquez.

finest deep dubby techno adventures by samuli kemppi, ice cold from finland !!

rock trio year long disaster is led by guitarist and vocalist daniel davies who grew up with an insiders perspective being the son of kinks guitarist dave davies. rich mullins has toured the world in his past rock lives with karma to burn and speedealer, and brad hargreaves is certainly no stranger to bright lights and big cities as his moonlighting gig is as the drummer of eight times platinum third eye blind. together, they are indeed, year long disaster.

excellent electro trax for bunker/electro & wave fans part 2.. including sneak thief, polygamy boys, divider, zhark and many more..

this is not the first time arnaud caschera teamed up with xenia beliayeva. there output so far has always been an exceptional combination of tight and atmospheric techno-elecro and intense cold vocals! >oh boy!< is definitely their best production to date. the b-side belongs to copenhagens no 1 posterboy, out of orbit and reconnected label boss and world travelling dj martinez

our man from norway comes around with three new tracks cold as ice including a remix from chris fortier (nyc / fad records)! his records are loved from djs all around the world, played from ibiza to japan! with nude no more terje bakke climbes the next level. his own individual style is hard to describe, but allways focused on the dancefloor.

already played by many electro djs and now finally available in a very limited 2x 12inch handstamped package: the lady ultimate album by duracel. his sound has been described as: >daft punk with a twist.< >dark, but funky with influences of kraftwerk, air and the tuss. this is minimal electro. essential!< only 250 copies worldwide. guaranteed no repress

the best scandium so far with tracks by maxime dangles (paso, k2), delon & delcan (boxer), bastien grine (k2) and bastard beat

new hardtechno stuff with big support from rush, kroecher and pet duo !!

limited clear vinyl limited to 250 copies.. funky melodic futuristic robopop electro stuff

antonellis sechstes album wurde ausschließlich auf analogen drumcomputern, synthesizer & sequenzern eingespielt. das resultat ist so rough & gefühlvoll, dass >soulkiller< mich unwillkürlich an den garage rock der stooges denken lässt

french artist based in paris. this prolific musician gets noticed by the od records label that has produced his 2nd ep in 2006 mixing in all his productions influences from the 80s, 90s and 2000s through cheap but stylish synth sounds, melodies that underlie a certain sense of tragic and his own gimmicks, he builds tracks socked in old school house, minimal and electropop that immerse us in a cold, sensitive and personal ambiance.

very strong release by martin landsky. -killer with a monster beat!- (record of the month in de:bug), -a corker from martin. really intense. manages to capture a futuristic feeling whilst still using classic sounds and percussion. superb! (will saul)-. already suported by argy, clé, dave dk, emerson, karotte, m.a.n.d.y., huntemann, phonique, agoria, chloé, d julz, fex, laurent garnier, sian, jeff bennett, jamie jones, mike monday, st. sebastian, will saul and many more. martin landsky is back with another strong release: >man high<. honni soit qui mal y pense, >man high< doesnt intent to glamourise drug abuse. its a tribute to captain joe kittinger and the man high project, a pre space-age military project that took men in balloons to the upper layers of the earths atmosphere. not only took the balloon joe kittinger to a record high, he also performed a sky dive from 75.000 ft. imagine how yo feel, falling free from the stratosphere, close to unconciousness, rotating like mad with 22 g … martins track >man high< captures a bit of that vibe with its live played wildpitch- like oscilating synth modulations. all three tracks on the ep are breathing martin landskys special analogue sound treatments and a rocking old school vibe. b1 builds a bit more subtle while b2 is an offbeat driven dancefloor smasher. brilliant release

joel mull, another representative of the swedish techno community, releases his current vision of what is to happen on the dancefloors. it is different from what his fans know from the early days. with his debut single on cocoon >harmonautic string<, joel mull sends us to a journey through the track which is smoothly airy-fairy and thus perfect to dive into the land of dreams after a wild party night. even when speeding up after a short break with the drums dominating – the track remains harmonic and is designed to dance into the sun in the early morning hours. the b-side appears spacy and melancholic, but again, mull is able to layer his music so deep and brillant that the basic mood is still vicious with the track still coming along in a magical and elegant way. >blossom< is exactly the right thing for a cold winter night and reminds of the b-side of beyers cocoon release

this is the new adnckrystall lp, the second (the fourth in fact), a pure non conformist album, no computer, no midi system, no good taste of studio mix for fucking mass fun commercial of artistico politico correct electro. just sincere 80s analog french cold wave romantic trashy noisy - because synthies are punkies naive vox biologic fxs but sex and chic!

limited one sided edition !! far out is just that: a track that goes the distance, but without pretension or unnecessary fanfare. more understated than your typical anthem, it cruises in stealth mode, winding a refined, percussive groove ever tighter, threaded onto a pattern of needle-nosed toms that glides almost unnoticed under your skin. unnoticed, that is, until the tracks main riff comes crashing down like an awning full of icicles, sharp and cold and heavy. but sebo ks sense of restraint is such that he never beats us over the head with it, so to speak. instead he lets the groove spiral on, tightening it as he goes and whipping up chilly little sinewave twisters along the way. you can leave your mittens at home, though, because theres enough heat in the rolling bass line to keep you warm all winter long

deep and moody is the theme on this hypnotic afterhours groove, jacking beats and snares, shuffled shakers, beautiful soulful chords set the mood, while a latin vocal splashes over a infectuous bumping bassline, as well as dark electro tinged keys that are catchy and subtle..

with tuomas salmela aka phonogenic, we welcome one of the most established finnish techno and house producers, with releases on 2020 vision, poker flat, moodmusic or f-com-munications. salmelas sound has something dark, reminding of the long finnish winters and cold nights. he does not feast in old times or posts the question of oldskool or newskool, but simply has produced something really new, without getting lost in clicks n cuts or doing too much sound research. phonogenic uses sentimental harmonies and stringent direct beats, that dont need complex building arrangements, but come to the point rather quickly and make clear where the journey will take us. similarly to guy gerber, phonogenics productions also are somewhere in between techno and houseand even use elements of trance. however, salmelas productions always make the impression of being well planned and moody

big tune !! the world tour continues with mario ranieri and andre frauenstein. organized by viper xxl, some of the best artist of the hardtechno are touring across the globe to infect the innocent with furious beats! where switchblade and tomash gee have already devastated germany and finland, and sandy warez roughed up belgium and brazil together with alex tb - time has come to stirr up austria and south africa. here are the most furious, ice cold and rock solid demolition devices resulting from the third stop of this excellent world tour!

played by: miss kittin, laurent garnier, oxia and many others !!! da fresh is arnaud caschera and one of the best known protagonistsof the french techno scene delivering quality music since the early 2000s on many different labels. for the 17th release of huntemanns dance electric imprint, he joins forces with germanys electro goddess of russian decent: xenia beliayeva. slow dance is an epic release with big theatrical gestures and a cold blooded 80ies pop appeal. a song for very special dancefloor moments and long parties with a catchy hookline. – a guaranteed hit. for all those vocal allergists da fresh also included an intense instrumental mix

a stone cold new norvegian artist (hey maybe hes not that new but at least he hides his heritage pretty well) serving stone cold cristal clear and electronic blissed nuova disco full of tension and energetic bliss. theres lots of changes in those tracks. that and splendid drumplay keeps the atmospere vital. wicked for both disco and techno crowds! this is part 2 of 2 ep series.

a stone cold new norvegian artist (hey maybe hes not that new but at least he hides his heritage pretty well) serving stone cold cristal clear and electronic blissed nuova disco full of tensiun and energetic bliss. theres lots of changes in those tracks that and splendid drumplay keeps the atmospere vital. wicked for both disco and techno crowds! this is part 1 of 2 ep series and includes an added prins thomas mix.

goldfish und der dulz are now dropping a bomb that will outshine the others these two awsome guys are cooking up their next soup on dessous recordings. 13 klaenge, is a dark, spooky track, catchy and hypnotic, and takes you on a real psycho trip. warm sounds on a cold tight beat, a hihat from somewhere beyond and a melody that sticks in your head for hours. chirocco is housey and definitely focussed on the floor with sharp pushing hihats and a weird melody

new bell is a stone cold classic piece of afrobeat that only appeared on 12 inch on an extremely rare dutch pressing and is a big play for everyone from masters at work (who made a pretty nice remix a while back) to gilles peterson. quite simply if you have any interest at all in african dance music you need this record. the flipside cut yoyo was only on a very rare french 7inch to our knowledge, this lesser known piece of afro disco really does get the party shaking its collective rump and sounds super fat on 12 inch for the first time

san fran veteran with a spaced out disco-punk take on bobby konders stone-cold house classic

acid-dub in drei variationen. auch hier gilt: wer burial mag ist hier nicht verkehrt

zasous is a slamming electrotech track with a nice oldschool rave touch. flip for the minimal grooving machine and the ambient number in from the cold

return of the cocoon-proof techno don! some phat business from jaceks underwater lab - yet another exercise in his very own concept of combining minimal groove with maximal sound spectrum. and it works: solid mid-tempo rhythm carries what seems to be a thousand of layers of sound. meaty, bouncing bass stabs intertwine with washes of synthetic melodies, while percussion drops and unidentified samples swirl around in this bio-robotic monster of a tune. >green river< takes jaceks minimal obsession into cold outer space, where you can hear the planets spin and the only hope seems to be coming from a dying communication device... cold, stark and haunting, this is either work of a madman or truly the future now

neue tracks von: burger/voigt, justus köhnke, superpitcher, thomas/mayer, dj koze, jürgen paape, schaeben und voss, kaito & mikkel metal

if zox was a sculptor, his works would be angled and polished, simple and magically effective. no sound on this record (which is called >more fluff<, which astonishes me) hangs around too long between the acrylic clear beats, the square waves are bellied and cold as vodka from an iceberg, the higher frequencies refreshingly cool as hills in the highlands, and straight lines are the dominating theme by far. this is dance music in itself. the basses live in rich bounteousness which is strictly controlled, though. why boom it when you can bang it? perfect shapes, functional beauty and a refreshing taste will rock you.

deep minimal electro house two tracker including remix by will bailey and calvertron

volume two is the hot sequel to volume one, which was released in spring 07, and also follows megalift ep on planet mu and a cassette release on his own funbox imprint, >eurostar acid<. the style is techno / acid / house / drum and bass / experimental /ambient

after 3 years of his success on electrix records - max is back to collaborate with keith tucker… this time on a groovy but hard track >electrotech<. you can feel detroit 4/4 floor beats with cold robot synths and the hot voice of the aux 88 front man

when it comes to techno and house, berlin based tigerskin (alex krüeger to his mum) has to be on the list! alex krüger has been involved in many projects and has released countless top class records, for example the new excellent phonique album on dessous which alex coproduced. >dark cold< is another marvellous tigerskin trademark sound and one of his hottest tracks to date! why? find out!

chrysanthemum ep is the first new recording from kelley polar since his hugely successful debut album released in 2005, love songs of the hanging gardens. the seeds of chrysanthemum are described by mr. polar himself as a confluence of the apocalyptic fear that permeated all cold war childhoods, comic book illustrations of blood and violence abstracted into flora and a b grade science fiction novels portraying two teens in the final throes of lovemaking as the world is destroyed in nuclear apocalypse. yet despite this decidedly dark and unique approach, the song is nevertheless pure pop catchy and indelible once heard. rosenband is lighter in subject matter yet just as deep musically, filled with synthetic layers and rhythms that reveal themselves slowly on subsequent listens. despite the immediacy of the melodies, there is a detail that permeates all of kelley polars work and rewards the attentive listener. a completely reworked instrumental version of rosenband is stretched across the b side and is dare we say it a dancefloor killer, with a long, mix friendly intro building to an incredible crescendo. the track is arranged and mixed by morgan geist and was done so with djs in mind!

with >slow potion<, asli takes the cold barren landscape of iceland, marries it with the deep soul of new york (think ibadan or objektivity) and then throws in a hint of banging german minimalism (think kompakt vs mobilee). and what comes out is truly a dancefloor masterpiece - beautiful and at the same time a full ‘hands in the air peaktime banger. classical strings joined by electronic beats and a throbbing bassline. on the flip side with >east city life<, he takes it even deeper. minimal yet groovy, asli builds us a perfect track for the late night
