if we add a new label to electronic music, is it really needed, wasnt music originally unlabeled? - lads contemporary productions could be called anticipated techno, architect techno, or architechno. these two tracks are simply brilliant and beyond what i have heard to date. the way lad is building space procures the feeling to be part of the music, to be in it, swallowed by it. >isolate< and >bergvall< are just two hypnotizing masterpieces, transporting you into unknown and untamed territories. deep, soulful, cinematographic, intriguing, moving. my drug is music. from 2d to real 3d chills. vanina hänin woods, forests, deep and dark spaces, like if kubrick, kurosawa and marinetti would have gathered together to produce music, simply highly cinematographic and futuristic. lad builds up organic visions, redefying sound in such a personal way. definitively two superb, soulful, finely shaped and constructed electronic pieces which will undoubtedly make you dance the night away. (dan lagardere)

we are proud to present alex d elia & nihil youngs debut album >rave-o-lution< lp. rave-o-lution is an inspiring piece of music, which, breaking the law to label anything electronic, deals with some pure techno, acid, minimal, sample-based tech-house and progressive techno. the lp includes also the guys very first song with talented vocalist gosha (known for his collaborations with axwell, david tort). all of this flowing to their concept of growth and evolution of the so called nu-techno. already supported by karotte, john acquaviva, umek, format:b, pig & dan, alex bau, john selway, spektre, axwell, slam and many more.

faze action maintain their fine run of form in 2011 with this four tracker from the shack, aka guy williams and dan williams (not related!) both have been active in dance music from the early 90s, with guy holding dj residencies at clubs such as the ministry of sound and turnmills during their pomp while dan williams aka d.r.w carved a career as a singer/songwriter. together as the shack they have absolutely nailed it with >touch it<, a sleazy-does-it italo peak time jam. arpeggiated synth lines, catchy vocal hooks and instant bassline work in jotous unison with some cowbell carnage. the 12 inch comes replete with a dub version and boogie influence faze action remix. rounding off the release is another original cut, namely >dont stop, in which tough drums combine with a late night vocal intoning the track title to bewitching effect. this shack attack has already found its way into the record bags of pete herbert and severino - expect it to be in many more come summer s end.

lonesome hero is the vinyl-only project spawned from a love of technos vinyl purism by a collective of artists growing tired of technos current cult of celebrity. first in the lh catalog comes a split ep featuring techno stalwart john tejada, and scene newcomer david joseph. though never released, dan bell grabbed tejadas track as part of his tresor mix cd back in 2000, while josephs first contribution to modern house music injects some timeless quality back into dj culture. we hope you enjoy!

the two dutch artists warren fellow and michel steinbach team up again to show what good dance music is. but this time they give their debut on mannheim based label circle music. again they created a unique eclectic mix like they did on their successful cosmic ep in 2009 or together with legendary todd terry with >got a soul< in 2010 where they proved that they are very able to handle house music. on the a side we have some straight beats with classic percussions at the beginning. but very soon fellow and steinbach come around with some synthesizer hook which melody is quoting the nineties. the vocals only brings it down to a round figure.

gobble gobble is a majestic and pulsating force drawing as much from the visceral and poetic indie rock of pixies as the electronic production of dan deacon or crystal castles, while remaining entirely unclassifiable. these canadians have created a grass-roots movement with their mobile rave infinitour 2010 which lasted from june to november and saw them playing suburban gardens, private homes, small indie venues, as well as pop montreal and cmj. hundreds of blog posts by the likes of stereogum and nme, a series of amazing singles, an appearance on debontons 2nd compilation, and a nomination by pitchfork as best new hope of 2011 have secured their position as poster children for the brave new pop scene. with boring horror they give their listeners not just the single by the same name, but also a b-side (eat sun, son) and two other original bonus tracks (seizure to the metronome, as well as two remixes commissioned by debonton to spice up the package. generous, emotional, exciting, and completely avant-garde, gobble gobble is a hurricane of freshness for the audience and the listener. limited edition of 500 units worldwide.
