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

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!

l delay is all about the drama—but at the same time, its skipping hi-hats and ringing bells suggest a carefree spirit and a supreme lightness of touch. talk about a duality: a cloak of reverb sucks the track perennially towards the dark side, but from the gleeful syncopations to the cheekily sampled live instruments, everything else opens up to the light like a morning yoga position. there s no funny business here, just tight rhythms and emphatic phrases that command bodies to move. its a monster of a track, but it must be of the loch ness variety, because youll never see it coming. on the flip, >frost< —haunted by the same high, lonesome string note as >l delay<— might be even more energetic, if that s possible. the high end has been smoothed down, and some of the roughhewn chicago edge of its companion tune sanded smooth, but its crazily syncopated standup bass line and distant, answering keyboards is all muscle, tensed and ready to explode. spacious drum tracks clear the floor for flashes of tambourine and handclaps so dry you can taste the salt on em. again, no nonsense is the name of the game: just raw, unadulterated funk with an ear for playful rhythms and limber moves

imagine the audacity of fusing, in less than five minutes, the entire history of dance music: from the sexual liberation of 70s disco to the gimmicky black funk of chic, from dark 80s house to the ecstatic electro which lit up 90s raves and also from daft punks french touch to todays guitar riffs that are driving the kids wild. take an innocent childrens chorus backed by pulsing electronics and an arpeggiator that sends chills up your spine topped then top it off with disco violins, nice! and what better way to make bodies move, since it is dance music after all, than a mastery of production that rocks the beat in the mould of great american producers like timbaland, the neptunes and dr dre. this is a hit that is ten years ahead of its time , paying homage to the seminal house music of larry levans remix of sesame street, « d.a.n.c.e » by justice is already a classic as their pop music influences continue to revolutionize dance music culture

fortuna marks another debut on get physical, this time from french producer paul ritch and his studio partner, anthony collins. this powerful four-tracker has a more techno approach than usual for the berlin label, but is sure to bring good fortune to any dj that drops it! the title track is an intricately pieced together affair, based on clicky rhythms and hypnotic bleeps that lead to a dark, filtered breakdown that will push the party over the edge whenever its dropped. motion12 continues with this dark theme, as deconstructed slivers of percussion and a nagging, insistent groove provide the backing for an ominous, acid-flecked bassline that keeps on building. drop this in a small, confined space and the club will erupt! pumkin sees ritch & collins explore an experimental: the rhythms still have that clicky, bleepy sound, but this time, there are fx-heavy drums to contend with and a dark, nagging techno riff that insinuates itself through the arrangement to cause melt down on the dance floor.!

dialog with hell is a slow grooving electro tech track with a lot of cool atmospheric bleeps already here on the flip is a dark tech track that makes no prisoners

tensnake remix reverie of spring-like chords melts the atmosphere of a cold dark room in successive thrusts crackles into a light shining in carefree abandon. in the original mix of “oscuro claro” the laden groove - lightfootedly noisy - rolls staccato into furious compulsive sounds, majestically muted into a thought that - spoken after a short hesitation - moves the action away turning it into mere play

something slightly different perhaps, but probably even more cutting edge and effective. from definition records we present christian fischer. he is probably one of the most open-minded techno artists around judging his numerous releases which covers just about all aspects of techno music. miracle places is solid stomper with electroid influences and dreamy vocals. this would definitely not be misplaced in a dj hell or terence fixmer set. the b-side is a collaboration between fischer and newcomer the ascent. this results in a dark driven and steady stepper with freaky melody. a solid b-side track for the little hours accompanied by smokemachines in full throttle and full on strobe-action
