two fantastic disco edits: soirees string laden disco cover of diana ross - you keep me hangin on is on the a-side. originally it had some spotty vocals on it but they got edited out leaving a killer disco instrumental. b/w an extended edit of somethin bout you by millie jackson. comes in the new glenview die cut sleeve.

get on the funk wave is a 4 track ep of original nu disco and house cuts from this up and coming italian producer (and friend of fellow italian nicholas). he released his first track in july 10 on elegant bit record. reminds us of kuba (and maybe just as good). in glenview die cut sleeve.

mike parker is back with 3 massive abstract acidic tracks on geophone. the a side opens up with mikes autumn remix of >give yourself up 2 techno< by apple juice featuring sean place. the buzzing high-pass filter pattern will shred speakers and precisely cut through any mix. the b side features two more originals by the label boss that explore oscillating low end frequencies and atonality as only mike can. pure techno, analogue style and created 100% live.

deep house emporium ornate music cast their worldly gaze to the far east, calling on japanese producer sai, a graduate of agness sthlm audio imprint, for a killer four track ep entitled bedroom eyes. the sultry, suggestive nature of the title is translated into the tunes on offer, with opening cut >2am< offering the most subtle of acid lines alongside piano flourishes and a spoken word vocal snippet. better still is the afterhours bump of >blue lingerie<, while >mr< toughens things up on the flip with a analogue grit and cooing vox. the 12 inch is rounded off with another original cut in >another myself<, which is dripping in classic motor city house vibes with gently oscillating bass tones reaching deep down inside.

>blurry< runs at 133bpm allowing it to sit neatly between dubstep tempo and the increasingly popular 125-130 bpm bass / house scene that has been developing in the uk over the last couple of years. taking things down an ongy-bongy path, this rhythm provides the soundtrack to a hunter chasing his prey through a humid jungle landscape, with fast weaving beats charged heavy by the deadly subs. the heat is on.
>spearhead< sees roska making a rare 140bpm trip, taking this rhythmical excursion neatly into dubstep tempo territory, creating an original cut which sits in its own world of tribal grime. the bassline pounds heavy, eventually rising upward before suddenly plummeting back down to the murky depths from where it came, and back round again. dis-hyeer quality dubstep music produced pon the other side of the looking glass.

vinyl only release... we present our first v/a on tsuba limited with an ep that crosses different shades of underground house with a deep vocal cut from underground qualitys blm, classic house from moodtrap and a distinctive parisian vibe from moonrunners.

pianobatacazoo provides us his most powerful set up ever: vibrations and deephouse oriented strokes charged with baroque sensuality, decorating and presenting himself extra sensitive through solid percussion lines that come from uk-funky, counteracting with elegant shines of real instruments. mngc, a more minimal cut built from an explicit mutant bass line that works as the spine that receives new tools through the playing of the tune: dry falterings, bipolar personality that makes his own the mysticism of the original dubstep or the synth motifs connected with the intensity of the deep techno.

with his second release for planet mu this year, >dream on< is more of a full-length outing for ital aka daniel martin-mccormick and a much more substantial record than the popular and critically acclaimed >hive mind<.
on >dream on< ital takes his experimentation with house and techno forms even further, creating impressionistic deconstructions from the tropes of early house and techno. sunny chords, laid back drum shuffle and rhythmic vocal loops are picked apart and threaded with a rich psychodrama of delirious textures, tidal chords and uneasy roughness and dissonance.
vinyl format ships with digital download code.

futuristic-funk starchild jimmy edgar returns with the third single to be taken form his recent album >majenta< out earlier this year on hotflush. this time edgar shoves is free-spirited sexual appetite in your face, with a slice of stripped-down, upfront electro-funk complete with j.g. ballard-inspired lyrics of car-crash sexual fetishism. alongside the original album cut, two alternate takes are reworked by a pair of producers at the very top of their game: jon convex and john talabot. whilst talabot creates an eerie and downright epic re-imagining through his combination of amazonian electronics and volume manipulation, the convex cut enhances the dance floor potential of the original with bubbling, arpeggiated 303 bass.

>sometimes music just needs to be released directly from the soul.< and.id, or andreas as we know him, does not fit the mold of the standard dj or live act. as a swing rhythm trumpeter, he brings a foreign texture in electronic music to the table. his love for live performance, sound boards, equalizers, free styling and jamming in bands has fused his talents into something unique that has the name and.id bouncing off the lips of fans and label heads alike.

calis pacific horizons return with their most club friendly 12 inch to date. club meds is a funky slice of balearic punk inspired by their years in san fran dancing to early breakbeats. fata morgana is an industrial dance inspired cut with a solid club feel. stunning.

butane continues to push his sound well beyond the frontiers of trendy dance music with >we are all cyborgs now<, his latest tour-de-force on his own alphahouse records imprint. apparently not interested in assimilation for the sake of popularity, he rather blazes his own wide-cut path towards artistry with two future-techno cuts rife with pointed commentary on the nature of todays dance music scene. >everybodys talkin< is a mutant hybrid of styles for the nostalgic types. latin percussion and bin-busting bass mingle with an ethereal voice lamenting the passing of the good old days. throw in one utterly twisted xylophone note that might just send a few partygoers over the edge for good, and you have an open air after-hours anthem in the making. >hey hipster< is a not-so-subtle jab at the newjack hipsters of the dance world who seem content to recycle old ideas, as long as they think they look cool doing it. deceptively simple, but carrying a heavy hook, the track features a grooving bassline, speaker busting synth stabs, and a brooding male voice admonishing these party parasites for their shallow ways. listen up kids, this is the sound of the underground. dont be fooled, this kind of music is best heard in big dark clubs where mirrors arent there for checking out your trendy haircut.

the one and only disco nihilist is moving forward.mike taylors second ep for running back is turning the curve ball of the first into a wild pitch (if baseball metaphors are your thing). 4 tracks across the disco nihilist spectrum: the rare cheerfulness of house rent boogie is backed up with a classic and no-nonsense rz-1 beat symphony that is aptly titled beatdown drums,while the flip presents the masked mania of film grain and some grumpy grittiness with operator select. mastered and cut in the us of a by legendary engineer mark richardson at prairie cat.

sccucci manucci once again proves its dancefloor chops with its fifth release, the cinquemila lire ep, which sees the london based imprint curl its moustache in the direction of deep house. manchester based duo toyboy & robin open proceedings with >no more sunshine<, an insouciant mix of soulful vocals, shuffling garage percussion and burning deep house organ stabs. it is a heady, intoxicating mix, and it is one that is matched on the a-side by sahin meyers effort, the husband and wife duo turn in the gorgeous >spread love<, a cut that wrings every last drop of emotion out of a classic, drummy arrangement. flip over for >saif< by illyus, a twinkling late night excursion into melodic, star gazing house, and >feel love< by firas, one half of the waze & odyssey, who rounds off another killer sccucci 12-inch with raw-thentic smacky beats and an addictive loopy vocal and bassline.

nico purman returns to vakant with his most technoid record since his 2009 va025 euphrasia ep. a cut the bubble reveals the direction nico is taking with this ep. contemporary techno with a classic touch and the distinctive twist that is characteristical for purmans works. b-side blow my mind slackens the pace a little bit and gives room for more trippy yet groovy moments on the floor later in the morning. mind bending.

180 gramm vinyl & very special cut. heavy, driving and flowing dub techno by mastermind m. rahn. shrink wrapped.

whilst most of us would associate the productions of butch with his effortlessly flowing, melodic and uplifting style, perfect music for the summer floors and terraces.... of late, the turkish born producer has been channeling back into his tougher and dare we say it, more butch techno sounds. having bathed us in the gorgeous tones of previous hits such as >papillon< and >eyes wide open<, butchs latest work for quartz music sees him expanding further on his recent chemically inspired cecille release >lsd 25<, by serving up a large helping of acid on, >303<. sinister and deadly, the creeping corrosive cut is perfect soundtrack for those dark strobe lit moments. >soul leaves body< sees on the polar opposite side of our trip as the blissed out beats of the tabla and strains of the sitar sweep us away an ethereal bed of sound.

the summer is bad as always in munich, but that is no reason to not have fun and spreading out the fire cuts. the 12 inch starts off with anisa, dedicated to marcos lady in mind and partner in wine. the eastern influences from his hood arent easy to ignore, and if u listen very carefully u can feel and smell the shisha dust inside the landwehr street.
in a city like munich its hard to rent an extra room for a studio due the extremely high prices, so we all have bedroom studios with the advantage that we can do music whenever we feel to. however our stressin turkish neighbour behaves like the pain in the ass of the whole neighbourhood. but we all have a vision and the night gives us the support we need to create our own space and our own time within our own spirit on 180 g vinyl from now on with a vinyl only cut on every 12 inch. twenty-three foreva!

after the trippy translations of the helium robot space trip called jarza, theo parrishs second and very welcomed visit to running back is all new material - almost. black mist in its extended version is just that: an extended take of the already released version on the rare-as-hens-teeth sketches pack. cut on 45, its a hard punch in the gut. techno-not-techno-house-not-house parrish power. previously unreleased and no less persuasive are pop off and wild out. while the first one centers around an endless piano and sucks you into the corny, but magic of repetition, the second one sounds like a theo parrish demo for dance mania after he came back from listening to lil louis at the bismark pavilion. mosh pit music. limited pressing in full printed sleeves.

new to the mathematics roster, deviere brings this 3 track ep that opens with lessons learned in the tears of deceit, a deep cut with a driving rhythm & sick bass sounds & synths. my kingdom for a time mach is a sick percussive joint with elements of acid & the title cut brings it back deep.

lectric sands drops another sick 12 inch this time with 3 cuts from zoovox. the title cut brings vintage drums with organic piano chords and a subtle guitar shred. splash wave is a raw track with soft synth backdrops and an areggiated line. gymnesian dawn is a dub of the main mix.
