may we say that you are looking great today! please, have a promo on us, we insist... so, our latest instalment features possibly our biggest release yet. some of you may well be familiar with >sanasol - tambourine man<, seeing as its been quite a tune with some of you already this year, but for those who dont, you really are in for a house based treat. initially released in 1997, tambourine man was a sleeper hit of its day. picked up by some discerning dj types again in recent times, the track has seen heavy rotation in some major clubs already…

big with rustie, major lazer, boys noize, m.a.n.d.y.,apparat, si begg, monolake, coldcut,.. facing crisis and tormented by the sorrows of monetary depletion there was only one solution for the house of modeselektor. all capital must go! and fast! property funds crashing like windows 2000, investing in gold too 80s and the rights to jackos portfolio too expensive. only one answer remained: art. versed on the international art trade floor it was easy for the modeselektor boys to win over two sought-after art dealers, to seal the deal and to go on a shopping spree. art & cash is the shocking behind the scenes documentary of that german art campaign. in the process a scandal was revealed that is shaking experts to this day. for years and under the watchful eyes of millions did the fantastic nobodies - exceptionally gifted art counterfeiters and weirdos from brooklyn - manage to sell themselves as renowned works of art, thus creating inexplicable damage—

1994 classic by legendary chicago vocal group feat byron stingily!!

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!

2004 classic

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.

russells contribution to the modern music scene is of such imortance that many consider his work to be untouchable but in this release all of the modern day producers have carefully picked out key elements of his songs whilst recording an entirely new and up to date soundtrack. over the last few months yam who?, robin & simon lee from faze action, singer mary moore, nycs pocketknife and my tiger my timing, andy spence from new young pony club have worked hard to create entirely new instruments and vocals. additional remix comes from mark e. especially fantastic cover version of >in the light of a miracle< by faze action ft. yam who and mary moore. features sleeve notes by danny krivit. heavy weight release.

yore returns with yet another deep master piece. javier alvarez, a madrid based producer and proprietor (along with his younger brother dubbyman) of the underground label deep explorer music, brings his relaxed above smoke sound to the yore imprint. in the first of four warm and atmospheric mood pieces, awfully drapes dense synthetic winds over a deliciously grooving, bass prodded deep house pulse. get down does exactly that with five funky minutes of rhodes chords, disco hi hats, and synth swirls, a percolating bass line lends the track a propulsive charge, while crowd voices give the cut a party vibe. on the b sideÆs ôthe fixö javier scatters chopped fragments of the spoken line, i ve got a lot of shit to say and i cant say it all in one day, i cant say it all on one piece of tape, over a funk house groove, after which dubbyman offers variations on the theme in his remix of the track, dubbymans version digs deeper into the cuts bass science and warms the tunes slinky pulse with hand percussion and claps. old school in its embrace of classic house sounds, above smokes ep is tailor made for those who like their material laid back, groove centered, and funky.

raz ohara and his odd orchestra return for their second album for get physical. >ii< is the follow up album to the critically acclaimed self titled raz ohara & the odd orchestra cd that is considered being one of the album highlights in 2008. its a warm, organic collection of avant-garde, open-hearted pop music which positively teems with life, a forest of pleasures and possibilities which youll want to lose yourself in indefinitely.
>ii< is certainly less melancholic than its predecessor – its imbued with good feeling, energised by the rhythms and cadences of summer and the great outdoors - but its not euphoric, there is an underlying note of caution, of trepidation. this emotional mix is what makes the record so powerful, especially when allied to a similarly ambiguous musical mix: which imperceptibly melds folk, classic pop, electro-acoustic experimentation and modernist electronics. 10 beautiful songs plus a special download (code included in the artwork) of the single >miracle< make this album a perfect journey through the winter days.

>in the music< can be described as one of top house tunes of alltime. from 2001 on, you find this track in all main clubs, and today we release it, exclusively for the world, with new great versions / remixes by christian marchi, alex gaudino & jason rooney, adam k & soha and nari & milani!

nils ohrmann moved to berlin in the middle of the 90s, where he knew the rave culture was in full bloom- from e-werk to ostgut. he himself was a dj at the infamous schnabelbar in kreuzberg for eight years. since 2004 he has been a resident at rosis in friedrichshain. in may 2009 he made his first ep for hula hoop recordings (a sub-label of rompecabeza), which was a hit in the berlin clubs. coming up next is catalog number 2: >green sleeves<.

this project started during the 2007 winter music conference when mr. marquez dropped there a selfmade bootleg of michael jacksons billie jean called mikelata and it was a pure happiness feeling on the dancefloors. 1 year later rocco, danny marques & dj fudge got together for a serious studio session with the perfect voice for this production: ricky galliano, a swiss based party and nightlife personality. the project was ready months before one of the sadest day of musics history happened: michael jackson passed away. now we changed the project in a tribute for the king of pop.

the souvenir family grows this fall with two newcomers, two new remixes and four new essential tracks. please welcome warmly the global vibes of cj jeff, m-in and the remixes of kreon and sante on souvenir021. on the a-side, souvenir celebrates the talented greek electronic scene. c.j. jeff aka nikos safiris gradually built his sound through releases on his own label rythmetic or modern love. he signs a remarkable entry on souvenir with the a-side >got 2 b<. wave your arms! take a breath! a tribe of incredible bongos players is surrounding you, when the vocals of an androgyny shaman start compelling you to a never-ending foot-stomping dance. you are right, where you want to be. damn, it s >got 2 b< a hit. kreon has been raising a fair share of interest lately with appearances on cecille numbers, resopal or robsoul. he signed a dub remix and a perfect spell to push to the party to the early sun shines of the day. back to germany on the b-side! m-in aka marcus ferdinand from frankfurt has spread his talents of producer with releases for off or get digital, and early supports from josh wink, johnny d, thomas schumacher or dj t. again we are talking about deep sensations, haunting vocals and afro rhythms. the tiefschwarz brothers have hammered >capetown river boating< on the road this summer. now its your turn to send a blessing from south africa to your crowd. studio partner of ali and basti, philip sante maier has barely released >dambalaa< last month, that he is already back in production. nobody will complain. his trademark, a clearly percussive approach and a dizzying groove particularly fitted with >capetown river boating<. 2 - 2, we gladly go overtime!

supported by stephan bodzin, kombinat100, mathias schaffhäuser, p.toile ..... again that laid-back, humorous and open-minded character of the people of mecklenburg glistens from the grooves of the available acker record. this time it is represented by the gentlemen schaeufler, who is an essential part of the local producer and dj scene since many years, and zovsky, who was musically socialized in trancy sceneries and shows a remarkable versatility. set di dol comes around on a powerful, pushing bass line, precisely placed percussions, minimal melody fragments and an exotic vocal sample make this track distinctly stimulating. after that the two dudes pick up the relaxed and cosy atmosphere of every day, which originally hails from the easy listening genre, and garnish it with reduced but very effective rhythms. on the flipside, the radio version puts this remix even more in a nutshell and finally acker mister mollono.bass presents his version of set di dol on the flipside: based on his typical, bouncing groove, he creates a frisky and somehow tropical atmosphere, using refreshing xylophone sounds and a proper portion of tribalistic percussions

ultimately affected by this summer, remain records 007: cool water e.p. by axel karakasis aims at keeping the vibes high for the new season. this year has been exceptionally good for axel and remain records, so this release is more of a celebration signalling the third year of the label, which grows stronger by the day!this 3 track e.p. opens up with orisha on the main side, a spot on tune with a straight kick and minimal techno elements that gradually build up to embrace the main character sample. at its peak, the track makes an inspired transition into funky, laidback groove, where axel works mostly present day sounds with 90s intelligence! the second track on the side is a far cry from orisha, as let it roll does exactly that: it rolls! bassheavy throughout, it s an insane piece of work with smart cuts that give way to teasing loopy layers. this track is a burner for serious techno players!the title track on the remain side begins as a mishmash of dub groove, and a rolling bassline. midway, cool water has an extended cut that builds up with relentless sirens and its menacing bassline that seem endless. in a word: flawless!

mark stewarts first new material for 2009 has been a long time coming and features three new tracks recorded earlier on this year.
>chadderton< on the a-side is an astonishing slice of deep and woozy midnight house, complete with sleazy chords and a frayed spine that is primed for peaktime narcosis.
>above< opens the flip with relentless chords and a shuffling percussive line that never lets up, while >great day< closes the ep with a cathartic spell that ends almost as soon as it begins, letting in rays of sunshine through the dense thicket of sound that preceeded it.

nice price deal !!! yo kid! remember back in the day? the underground was truly the underground. people werent trying to make tracks. people were about nice songs. no chart dropping. no ra. no myspace. it was just straight underground pop writing. yo! remember techno pop? what happened? andreas dorau. yo kid! what happened? hamburg, parfüm. what happened? firm. oh! theyre still there. kompakt pop, cologne. what happened? can somebody tell me? ladomat 2ooo. we all know what happened.. console. what happened? egoexpress. what happened? micromusic. what happened? popacid. what happened? hans nieswandt. what happened? rework. what happened? scheinselbständig. what happened? christopher just. what happened? cologne, the minimal pop-house sound. you gotta be kidding. what happened? synth pop. come on man, whats up? techno pop. what the fuck happened? it used to be so good

andré decided spontaneously to record fresh material especially for the label, more than 6 months before our fi rst release. this says a lot about the common trust that was born that day, much before the hype surrounding the man. the result of this saw the light some weeks later in the form of vehemence of silence, a track of indeniable power which breathes long years of djing & berlin afterhours as much as uncovering close impressions of andré’s emotional outcome. this is what made me feel that track like a whisper to my body & soul and what makes me so proud to release it today… more than 10 months down the line, andré improved it, tested it on the fl oor till a fi nal club listening session in the middle of the berghain dancefl oor where we both knew it was ready to be shared… this special track needed of course outstanding alternative perspectives and it didnt take me long to propose my old friend danilo plessow amongst andrés favorites to give it his magic : motor city drum ensembles version translates an unexpected techno jam reminiscent of the best early soma days. the ep is completed by a second original called dark edge, a sophisticated & raw deep house joint. a&r and words by dairmount

musik gewinnt freunde starts the sommer season with mgf 09, which features two young and promising producers from beautiful venice: nicola sansoni aka randomatique and kaled jabri aka kaledj, who together form cosmic cowboys. the three tracks on their dusk ep combine an airy and transcendent athmosphere with an energy that builds up chary first but then unfolds and overwhelms you. with melancholic harmonies and a whiff of dub this ep invites for (day)dreaming or loose yourself on the dancefloor. definitely a great release for deep summer nights that will catch your heart regardless of time and space. cosmic cowboys make a great extension for the mgf family and it will be worth watching out for future releases from these guys

remerge started in early 2007 and quietly set the precedent for the current old skool influenced recordings. initially, the concept was to re-interpret old rave records and rebuild the samples into modern day hardcore classics. over the last two years, the series has slowly come to it s logical conclusion with two original recordings, which retain the essence of æ92, but remain relevant to the sound of 09. amenyall is produced by dj wasp, a pseudonym for one of the most revered and consistent producers of electronic music over the last 16 years. expect the usual formula to be broken, crushed and recompiled into something truly unique. >wasp< described it as >the track i wanted to make 15 years ago< and we are really proud to be able to release it. >terror overdrive< by agt rave cru is on the flipside and is without question, one of the toughest, most manic records you re likely to hear all year. wild stabs, full juno hoover workouts, ruff breaks and one of the greatest intros to a track ever, this really is the real deal.

soniculture welcomes a new artist to the family. bernard siefert, betterknown as nhar is known for his releases on labels such as mobilee, meerestief, plak and modelisme. his hypnotic sound is unique, adding at the same time fine tuned melodies and vocals, in this way, enriching the whole musical experience. with this release, nhar shows us a bit more energy, keeping the soul and exploring the feelings that characterize his productions, but making us dance even more than usual. this is an amazing piece of work from one of the most original producers of the new french techno scene. the a side begins with >derceto<, a very modern techno track but with an old school touch and an outstanding percussion arrangement. the hypnotic bassline is strong and involving and the vocals make it dirty, when needed. thinkfreak closes this side with a powerful remix, taking the energy to higher levels and making it a dance floor slammer for the craziest moments of the night (or day). with >owls are not what they seem<, nharshows us how hypnotic he can be. the track is filled with sophistication andthe production details are exquisite. this is electronic dance music at itsbest. dalessandro & expander present a version of >owls are not what theyseem< that is sexy and groovy and is for sure perfect for that special afterhour moment or simply when there is a special need for love.
