this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

needwant is the new label from sean brosnan, who kicks off the label with the signing of fromages vicious. a record with one foot in the past and one in the future, reminiscent of eighties balerica with a vocal fit for a new york house dance floor.

>minimal is cool but in the long term a bit too unsexy!< this statement of marcel knopf that is by now quite old, shows his heart does not beat for one genre after all. after the first and more technoid single release from his album >dusty dance< monsieur knopf satisfies his longing for real house with single no.2 >crazy about<. r&b singer camaras soulful voice leaves quite an impression on this powerful beat. in >skinny bitches< marcel knopf processes insane nights: you just want to drink a beer in your favourite pub but then you meet a couple of friends and they take you to the worst disco in town. this high-energy track is uncompromising and must be played during peak time and not during warm-up sets or after-hours.

the 2nd vinyl release of house mannequin features two disco house tracks and comes as a limited edition white label. the first track is titled: but i cant see that dancin you. it is based on an old 80s track which has been cut up to a perfect modern disco house track. a track for the peak time of every disco house set! the second side consists of a gently grooving disco edit track named draw. both songs have a very positive vibe. although made for the dance floor, you can enjoy both tracks on your small home hifi too.greg wilson, jesse rose and many more supported the last release house mannequin ep1 and the new ep will definitely find lots of new friends in the house community.

new judas tenth release sees the return of the electro house scenes bearded alpha male huoratron. as you might have learned from his previous release on new judas this ep is not one for the tender ears, this is hard banging madness from start to finish with every track having a huge potential of ending up on techno satans spotify playlist. that said, you dont have to be a worshiper of the dark lord to obey and enjoy the innovative force of this hi-fi genius sound crafts and the excellent production behind all the original tracks. mixhells remix of the title track adds a bouncier bongo flavored beat and passions splatterhouse version of the same is bound to make even the weakest hearts bust a dance attack.

plastique de rêves new single on david carrettas label space factory disques follows up on last years fantastic release on dfa with its summer !!, a perfect techno-pop summer hit with another great feature by vocalist ghostape, and dives further into the realms of electrodisco, synth-pop, and cosmic music. ultra synthetic and light-hearted, yet dreamy and emotional, the three tracks (four on the digital release) each capture with authenticity the essence of electronic disco music but pay tribute to it here in a very original, playful and modern way. its summer !! is a great follow-up to plastique de rêves previous singles on dfa and supersoul recordings, also featuring ghostape on vocals. this time the music goes even deeper into the worlds of synth-pop and electronic disco, with reminiscences of vince clarkes yazoo, giorgio moroder or kelley polar. the sunny, laidback, pop radio atmosphere, together with ghostapes emotional build up of the deliberately simplest lyrics ever written so far, might well keep you smiling, and dancing, all summer.

roughly translated, hasta el fin means >the very last number of the night<, appropriate when you consider this is gigolos final release of 2009. the a&r process at gigolo is a constant and very simple formula! if hell likes it, plays it and gets a good reaction from the crowd then it needs to come out on his record label! no other record fits the criteria more the >hasta el fin<. this is a record that featured heavily in hells festivals and club sets and was played at the end of every after-hour he found himself. but its beginning is a little less finite.
the genesis came late last year when oliver ton invited various musicians for a jamming session. in the spirit of some masterful moments in music oliver ton and production partner ronald christoph captured something unique sounding with a dance record built largely around a vocal, guitar and piano performance. it was immediately signed to berlin based white records and assigned the fitting cat. no. of white999!!!
hell, an early supporter of both the record and label was smitten, personally requesting the license for gigolo. once this was granted he approached tony lionni for a remix. for many djs, including hell, tony lionnis >found a place< is without doubt one of the biggest records of 2009. so combining the talents of these two artists would appear to be a no brainer, and the results speak volumes. taking the vocal hook, layering it over a tough piano stab and italo style disco rhythm is the order of the day. as we approach the end of another decade for gigolo and the first of new millennium we are proud to present our last number of the 2009!

the >murmur ep<, limited edition of 500 units in coloured vinyl, the sight belows followup to 2008s full-length glider, is a bracing step forward for the reclusive seattle-based artist, comprising two new songs and a notable remix. the sight below uses the murmur ep as an opportunity for expansion, turning up the contrast on his silky tones to expose an even more deeply textured sound with a powerful emotional effect. on the >murmur ep<, the textures are denser, courser—closer to kevin shields jagged oceans of guitar than gliders wisps of reverb — and the beats are meatier, funkier even. the sight below comes close to recording a real dance track with >murmur<, slipping a skipping syncopation and an honest-to-god bass line into a roiling cloud of distortion. >wishing me asleep< incorporates bits of strings into the mix for a touch of cinematic melancholy.

this ist he first vinyl from the digital only compilation >5 years dirt crew recordings<, released on 09.11.09.

peter kruder returns to the gigolo mega-church to present two new tracks from his recent arsenal of techno and house dance-floor bombs. needless to say 2009 has been a good year for gigolo and hell with the high times being shared by peter kruder. beginning back in march when we released peter kruders first 12 inch in 7 years as part of the cd eleven release. followed swiftly by the release of dj hells acclaimed >teufelswerk< album, recorded and produced largely in peter kruders vienna based studio. so as we approach the end of 2009 it gives us great pleasure to announce the latest ep >hard to find<.
on the a-side you find the title track, which takes in influences from detroit techno circa the age of ur to north african hooks. the filter sweep towards the end, which serves as the drop/break, is a master-class in restrained modulation that is bound to ignite any dance floor. on the b-side we find >25 west 38th st.< a slightly more reserved affair opening with the sound of the ocean air, then swiftly diving into a bass driven groove, which features lush strings and a piano-led top line creating a track that is as atmospheric as it is rhythmic. the ep itself takes influence from the b-side on two levels, the most immediate being the title of the track, which is the address of the old nu groove records offices. this is peter kruders homage to a time when dance music served as a momentary escape, an opportunity to make those around happy. it also brings peters relationship with gigolo records full circle, having begun in 2004 with his >nu groove< remix of hells >listen to the hiss<.
resident advisor recently alluded to the idea that peter kruders finest solo work is coming exclusively through gigolo records. it is certainly not beyond the realms of possibility as this latest record goes a long way to proving. with such a statement in mind we invite you to listen to the latest release from peter kruder.

marcus mumford built mumford and sons after his long standing position as laura marlings drummer / harmoniser began to earn him praise from all who saw them play live together. his battered and raspy voice soars with emotion over massive swells of country tinged orchestral pop. lovelorn lyrics filled with hope, anger, fear and every passionate extreme in between mean mumford and sons are sure to achieve a massive amount of praise for their debut album sigh no more, which demonstrates the strength in both song and sound. togetherness is fundamental to mumford and sons. its there in the tightness of the arrangements, and the four part harmonies - its pretty unusual to hear pitch perfect harmonies that are also meaty, masculine and downright loud. and its in the simple fact that mumford and sons get such a kick out of playing together.

this new collaboration between two of cadenzas finest talents makes its official debut on mobilee with black shoes, a cut that pops, crackles, and snaps like youd never believe. dance floor ready yet unwilling to sacrifice an explicit focus on the details, black shoes pulsates with bass while suggesting a kind of lightness as whispered and fragmented voices hiss and murmur in the background. the melodics, which give off the feel of being in constant flux, provide a nice contrast to the intensely regularized bass drum while simultaneously meshing with the popping percussion that guide the track along its course. breakdowns filled with the sounds of static and 8-bit provide a nice experimental touch to this track that works equally well as a late-night romp as it does on the headphones. b-side speech also gives off a stuttered feel but is even more blippy and fragmented than its counterpart while migrating towards a more jacking vibe. brito and toro compliment this fractured sound with extensive use of vocal samples—both spoken and sung—that, while incomprehensible, lock in seamlessly with the overall feel of the track. melody here references both vintage sounds and traditional minimalism with the end result being a fusion of the two that is truly extraordinary.

vinyl only / coloured vinyl !!! think of deep house and it isn’t all that often that the casts it’s attention on spain, a country more famous for it’s hedonistic forays into the tougher side of dance music, but all that started to change a few years back when above smoke (or javier to his mum) and brother jose aka dubbyman set up the rather superb deep explorer music (label of the month in the current issue of resident advisor). impressed as we were, we asked javier to provide a demo for us, the results of that you now have in your hands..

juke and ghetto house hero dj gant-man was part of the fools gold family from the start - his remix of kid sisters >damn girl< was on the back of our very first release, quickly followed by production on kid sis >switch board< and shows around the country as her tour dj and hypeman. so naturally, we are very proud to present gants new solo single and debut fg artist release, >juke dat girl<.
from his earliest 12 inches on dance mania, to rocking parties around the world on the rave and club circuts alongside legends like paul johnson, gant has been pushing his signature chicago sound for almost two decades - mixing up rapid-fire juke beats while referencing all the house and disco classics that first paved the way. >juke dat girl< is the latest development of gants hybrid approach, slowing the bpms down to a more universal tempo but keeping the hyper, party-starting energy intact.
the banging original also comes backed with two massive remixes - an amped-up rave version from the heavily buzzed dc duo nadastrom and a groove-filled uk funky house rework from ex-bugz in the attic producers greenmoney. the entire single is a dj must-have, so pick it up and work! and juke! and work! and juke…

cobblestone jazz founding member danuel tate is back on the solo tip with his newest project for wagon repair - wag055 >doesnt like you back ep< - and this time, probably as a result of spending so much time on the road with bandmates mathew jonson and tyger dhula, he is bringing it harder. although some familiar elements from his first ep, >pushcard<, can be found in the horns and synths mixing together to form the beds for the quirky vocoder, this five-track release comes more direct. >doesnt like you back< reflects the moment on the dance floor when you realize the woman next to you is way out of your league, which we guess isnt a bad feeling as long as you like dancing with super hot women.

our jazzy multi instrumentalist, dewalta a.k.a. david koch, returns to vakant with another popping fresh release, as earnestly house as house can get. since his first vakant release in 2008 (va021 salgaro/farina) davids music has taken him around the world in black largely covering our earths northern and southern hemispheres. side a is graced by move yo sitting as close to late 1990s baby ford as one can get without a time machine and personal guide to londons underground. david somehow owns this genre while still making it distinctly his. b1 night shade keeps the housey goose bumps going with a drier and more direct approach. cheeky bleeps and chunky bass balance dark spacey vocals to land the track somewhere between night and day. >angels trumpet< at the b2 position closes this stellar ep out with a track that again borrows from the genre, but continues way beyond its standards with melodic elements that push and pull you in multiple directions resulting in no less than dance floor catharsis.

the title of max coopers stochastisch serie ep, refers to his use of stochastic methods, also known as non-deterministic, or random methods of sound generation. stochastic elements referring here mainly to real sounds including vocal experiments and sampled sounds which create a complexity and richness which has been a trademark of many well known traum releases in the past. the london based artist max cooper sees his new 12 inch as a construction of different moods going beyond club music, as witnessed in the past through tracks such as i and end of reason. it is no surprise that dischordance is another one of these timeless pearls alongside these mentioned tracks that have created a fan base worldwide for him. the friction max generates is created by two sides colliding, the synthesised drums and melodies and the random experiments with voice. his dance floor rockers stochastisch serie and mnemonic work in a much more functional way but do include bits of this randomness and therefore are part of the superstructure stochastisch serie. the remix of uk producer leeks is very hip in style and sound and will please a lot of younger djs who love the cool swing and groovyness with music and will find the functionlism here going very strong.

aux-rec is being launched by airdrop records as an offshoot label designed with a specific mission in mind: to look back and pay tribute. aux-rec surveys musical history looking for those inspiring pieces of music (famous or forgotten) that carry a very distinctive groove and identity, and that offer the potential to be revisited in an ingenious contemporary way. at airdrop, we love music of all ages and of many genres! we feel aux-rec is a way for our artists and for us to pay our due respects to the origins and the evolution of contemporary dance music.

the following releases on aux-rec will also be in the form of bootlegs, edits, re-works or samples (you name it). they will bring back memories to your heads and mostly the groove to your feet. to be true to its mission of a vintage exploration, aux-rec will be releasing exclusively on vinyl, in the tradition of the essential music format of the 20th century. there will be no digital releases at aux-rec. in the pipeline are soul claps edit of laid backs >bakerman< as well as le loups version of sheila es >a love bizarre<, produced by prince.

for more than 15 years now, steve bug is known for influential track somewhere in between house, techno and minimalism. with his very good sense for the energy of self-limitation, bug has set standards when it comes to the funk of modern sound geometry, especially with his imprint poker flat recordings. milestones such as >loverboy<, >monsterbaze< or >wet n dry< are now essential elements of the history of electronic dance music. only a few weeks after the release of his fourth album collaboratory, bug even tops that one with this 12 inch on cocoon: while look whos stalking obviously refers to steves close relation to the raw energy of u.s. house in between chicago trax and detroit, using driving hand claps, percussions and nasty vocals, the flipside zero balance could pass as a vision of how far you can reduce techhouse to the essence of a bass line. also here, short vocal loops - besides the fast-moving elements - complete a sensibility that makes bugs tracks such high quality music for a very long time now.
