summer mega-ton-bomb – sure shot!! balearic is a word which few people really understand. it can mean whatever you want it to mean, but it has always been vaguely associated with ibiza, hippies, deep tropical dance music, and british football hooligans who grew hair, showered less, and became djs. but forget those 90s british for now, there that feels better! with this special release, which we have kept quarantined on its own tuning spork extra label, we are bringing you that balearic vibe with a deep and dubby 00s house music twist. and for us, this is the record of the summer. so prepare yourself for a massive collaboration project from the social beings. this is not some duo youve never heard of, in fact its label boss jay haze (fuckpony / bearback / krak street boyz) and his friend, modern day techno legend ricardo villalobos… one piece of information which is true, unlike those ones, is that haze and villalobos are now huge figures in the house and techno world. and they are indeed social beings

billy dalessandro – working as a multimedia designer during the day, the american with italian roots creates his music in his legendary dojo studios in chicago while releasing it mostly on german labels – which is not as paradox as it seems…. his productions, thought-through, fluid, rolling monsters that surprise with darkness and groove, are released on labels such as resopal, force inc, forcetracks, konvex-konkav, disco inc., relax, kompute and soniculture, as well as his own imprint siteholder, and make the dj and producer a much sought-after artist whose records end up in crates of well-known artists as diverse as mathew dear and john digweed.

if youre fed up of looking out your window onto grey dreary weather and desperately need some sunshine in your life then you are in luck. chris lakes new track >carry me away< does just that... described as being >reminiscent of a hot summers day dancing on the beach< this track is tipped for huge success. featuring the sultry voice of emma hewitt, an uplifting piece of blissed out electronica, you cannot help but fall in love with emmas beautiful vocals over a hooky piano riff that is chris trademark. complimenting the original, there is the sébastien léger remix which tears apart chris mix that gives you a deep, dark, electro-twisted journey, still keeping the vocal with a soaring orchestral break that makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end

representing tokyo-techno-scene, >co-fusion< (dj wada & heigo tani (wall five), their 2nd ep of their new project series is coming up again. as the latest work of 1911 ep, this is their day of todays work which they have assimilate as their career that they have been quite long time period in japan. the quality of sound is extreme elements to get deeply... >devgru< on side-a comes with funky sub-bass through to the end, tech house beat flows the track offer you if you like radio slave and claude vonstroke. >rink< on side-b as a stark contrast, comes with cut-up style of minimal taste, the elements of sampling subtle track. on the other side, sounds experimental throughout the track as clink or vakant

ben watts buzzin fly label continues to set the benchmark when if comes to modern house. lyons manoo has already stamped his authority on the deep french scene with his work as part of house supergroup rodamaal, and solo outings for realtone and deeply rooted!! the track magnetic combines modern tech house with detroit string techno a la the jaguar (rolando)

gentlemen, to your battle stations please! all hell is about to break loose and things might get messy. x-tension is a dj team consisting of stormtrooper and thomas nordmann. stormtrooper, already well known in the hardcore scene for release like todesvogel or existenz, played at big parties troughout europe like energy, masters of hardcore and judgement day. his style is dark, rough, full of distorsion and hardly with any melodies. thomas nordmann, techno dj from south germany since 1999, is known for his very wideranging sets and productions

this is the third tuning spork blues experiment. inspired by legends like miles davis and modern day techno producers like dandy jack, andreoni is forging wacked out new house sounds, in the true spirit of jazz. this ep is no exception, and it shows why the likes of ricardo villalobos believe that signor andreoni is an amazing musician. to begin the experiment, andreoni jams you deep into space, with some seriously fucked up effects that will have you hiding under your bedclothes. sleepover is perhaps the most techno cut on this release, but the deep haze of dub still remains, over a banging percussive track. on members the melodies are perfect as you expect from signor andreoni, and here the acid line is more prominent in the mix, over deep warbling bass notes. in borderline, nothing is as it seems. melodies fall down cliffs into weird drones, and everything seems a little skewed. this completes a 4 track ep from a unique talent in the world of deep electronic house music, with 4 distinctive colourful tracks that take the genre far away from the middlebrow. make sure you check out our third tuning spork blues experiment, even if you spent most of science class using bunsen burners as water pistols

slutbox (billy dalessandro & daniel mnookin) >nitrogen 2 oxygen 1< ep (jason emsley & brian ffar remixes) billy dalessandros, daniel mnookin & brian ffars beloved siteholder returns with one of the best releases in the labels history. the sound is infectious, minimal minded and addictive, spreading through the world like an epidemic this only proves their chapter on techno is yet to be written. the title track is intricate, layered and warm, some might say it makes reference to sleeparchive with its metallic drums and deep analog vibrations. the massive sub bass is something you must experience on a raging dancefloor at 5am, this will jack you straight into the afternoon. dark haunting vocals (very on par with the m_nus crew) clicks & cuts percussion and decaying melodies. flip this one over for massive analog richness with this huge jason emsley mix which i get the feeling he took a lot of influence from dan bell back in the day as this sounds like revisiting the 7th city again, stunning. the brian ffar & huge hephner mix is filled with ever evolving basslines and residual synth pulses on top of bass sophistication thatll beg for deviant behavior at any hour. perfection if i may say so myself, do not miss

powerfull darker & hypnotical techno two tracker by hell toupe vs. praxis !!!

>the dawn< is a moody, undulating cruiser of a track, which will subtly but surely make a dancefloor feel a sense of sunrise, whatever time of day or night. busy, clicky percussion sets the scene for a full-bodied, rising, almost trancey bassline to take control. t ups the intensity with real dancefloor nous and precision programming, layering distressed synth sounds and heavily treated keys atop each other while never losing sight of the tracks fierce ,fundamental groove. ‘the dawn’ builds and builds, by turns dropping out the percussion and the bassline, every departure and return a heads-down, hands-aloft dancefloor moment. the crisp snares and rich, melodic notes of delay add even more depth to what is already an essential tune. b-side >jam pot< is more playful, and driven by a classic physical bass melody - at once intimate and techy, dubby and dancefloor-urgent, gritty but optimistic. again, the attention to detail on the percussion takes this track to the next level, and jazzy keys provide an organic ontrast to the robotic blips and bleeps.

dj oji hits us right in the face with a couple of atypical jazzy afro funkified productions on this double a side! sax you features vocalist kolai & gets eclectic with its slappy percussion & really catchy plucky rhythm string. this only serves to warm up the epic intro of the jazzy sax that comes in as strong as a freight train. doing one of his very special edits is master musical editor & dance legend, dj danny krivit. continuing on his path of afro funkdom, this next oji offering is another quality piece featuring esteban & tettris entitled non believers. a rhythmic hodge podge of sounds in the same vein as the aforementioned style including sax, trumpet, hammond organ, wood clavs, and interjected by a psychotic transistor noise thats sure to drive the listener into a modern day ritualistic frenz
