the title track, lost in shibuya, is perhaps our favorite track from the album. its a very evocative track, a 7 minute journey that revolves around a killer bassline, that captures the trancey techno vibe that made some of the most glorious moments of nineties techno. on the flip side, we asked one of our favorite producers to deliver a remix. his name is quarion and as part of drumpoet community, he is responsible for some of the best deep house sounds of the past years, and is one of the leaders of the neo deep house movement. quarion blessed us with a tribute to mood ii swing that is his dub infected killer usuki shinrin mix.

the 2nd release of french producer anthony collins on mule electronic. anthony collins have released from get physical, freak n chic, bangbang!, curle and name a few. his biggest track >reeves< was included to the compilation of 10 years anniversary of circoloco@dc10. after the successful of last 12inch >upright bass< inc great foog remix, he came back with two modern deep house stuff. a side, >away from home< is early 90s house sound. its associated with the updated nuyorican soul sound or recent dj sprinkles release. if you like the recent underground us house like underground quality or that kind of release,you will like this song even if its more modern taste than them. bside, >hanging on< is jazzy, tribal minimal house sound. its a modern dj tool.

circus company welcomes a new artist on the label: the homewreckers. named after a track by southern soul legend sam dees, the production collective from germany has been moving and breaking new ground between detroit techno, abstract funk and melancholic disco music since 1995. their debut album amercian ruhr has been released on unique records in 2008 and creates an absolutely distinctive sound which seems to come straight out of a from a feverish dream populated by the ghostlike figures of larry graham, juan atkins, frank hutter, bernard edwards, erik b or al green. the not my business ep perfectly shows how the homewreckers flow on these two original tracks. you feel the funk, you feel detroit and you feel a deep and unique sense of music. cherry on the cake, you got a remix from san francisco based artist dave aju who is back on the label after his much acclaimed album open wide released in 2008. not my business isnt their first shoot on the label as they were already part of last months snuggle & slap circus company compilation with a brilliant live-version of chicago urban blues.

supported by adam beyer, john digweed, dominik eulberg, ewan pearson, perc, danny tenaglia, dave tarrida. roland m. dill is a passionate dj, trained musician as well as bit of a scientist. this release tells a story of psycho acoustics. so expect >low go< to be something special for your ears and for your soul. roland likes chicagomusic and this track has the chicagoesque feeling in it from the beginning. those who remember green velvet will get a hang also on this powerhouse-techno production! this track will be easily fitted in to every berghain dj set and rock the shit out of everyone on the dance floor. dont expect dubbed out lushness, this is serious dance or die action .
the remixes come from prominent producers around europe, so starting chronological from a2 to b2: sian has appeared on a lot on raves and parties with his surf board. he is an international traveller who loves to be reminded of the times when surfing farmers left their houses with door frames and no doors. his remix works in a way a countdown functions. building up tension at an incredible speed, this track is set out to explode... but sian would not be sian if he had not developed a club friendly torture . sian rides the wave of superfatt basslines and adds a sequence that sounds as if someone had replaced his teeth with thin pieces of metal, creating a humming voice comparable to one of a jaws harp. sian keeps the tension going with very few elements and shows he is a true masterof techno.
secret cinema has been accompanying us since his first releases mid of the 90ies and we truly believe quality prevails, not to mention his mayor chart hit just 3 months ago with “shake ur tech-ass”. well secret cinema is unbelievably massive in his production. we dont see how anyone can fatten up the sound more than he can. but it is not only about tuning and pimping and pimping and tuning... his remix is a masters piece of perfectionbecause it creates something rare... deep emotional hydraulic strength. this is like diving head on into a pool of silicone and getting sucked into it. this track has an hypnotic feel to it that is comparable to radiohead.
darko esser is an icon in the techno scene of the netherlands. his remix takes the track in to a direction you would not expect it could go to. starting rather minimal darkos remix soon takes a turn and brings in jack elements and cool nostalgic melodies that will warm the heart of every detroit techno lover. was it derrick may who played chords like this... these strings are looked up in the back of our heads like childhood memories of having your first popcycle exploding in your mouth. this is soulful music with just enough analogue imperfection and warmth to it.

excellent nyc infected old skool deep house monster !!! well well well

>double rainbow< is the first 12 inch single by dcs protect-u partnership. a dripping bell loop drops over 707 patterns and deep bass as the a side twists, turns, and grows into a highlife house dream. the b side toughen up is tropical electro-funk gyrating in and out of itself, a 90 bpm churner for all the people out there (like us) living in that nu pangaea where the genres fall apart

played by loco dice, juju & jordash, k-soul, anton zap ... ferrispark records continues to release quality underground music that moves emotions, dance-floors, and brain waves. the 12 inch release of scott fergusons >evolution of a revolutionay ep< is raw, soulful, dance music for the deepest dancers and freethinkingminds…
a1: revolution – main mix (7:51)
mix dirty heavy beats, a somber sax solo, deep chords, and malcom x and you have a deadly combination for dance-floors and the authorities. >theres freedom for everybody or freedom for nobody!<
b1: revolution - dub (4:49)
this mix leaves only the dance-floor elements, play it for your deepest crowds…
b2: evolution of a revolutionary (4:32)
in this deep house burner, intermingled loops and voices evolve and transform into a story of revolution.

ltd white label ! excellent minimal tribal deep / techhouse reworks !!

things are really moving at dumb-unit, the new year is about to hit and we are ready to bring on another superb artist to the roster. this time in the form of ahmet sisman, the turkish / german sensation who is already makinginternational waves with his strong batch of recent releases. flagged by sven väth and mathias kaden as one to watch in 2010 ahmet has been on the radar of jeremy p caulfield for sometime. his slash, lessizmore and stock 5 eps were in high rotation through the summer and were a perfect fit to jeremys high energy sets. with a dense impact of heady efx and speaker rattling low-end ahmet is the perfect match for dumb-unit as the label bumps and thumps deep into the unwritten future ... stay tuned …

tiger supported by... rob da bank, kiko, markus kavka, mihalis safras, justin berkovi, ivan smagghe, orde meikle... moonbeam are back on traum! the russian brothers had a great year and have been voted as one of the top 100 djs worldwide by uk dj mag, in december 2009. we think they are wonderful, dedicated people who really deserve winning this award. with their new a-side track >tiger< moonbeam show their timeless quality and their deep knowledge of music, writing a seemingly simple but gigantic track. if you want to express in words what this track is like you might say it is a hybrid of joe beltrams >energy flash< fuelled with a melodic note and a lot of post-techno feeling. creating a revival of rave which so many people speak about, but so few actually reflect in theirproductions! the energy of this dark monumental new school acid track is counteracted by the two tracks on the flipside >land of the lost (strict mix)< and >zoo<. the b1-track >land of the lost< sounds like a soundtrack for a film set in a ghost-town in the midwest of the united states. a track that travels like a camera does... through different rooms of a deserted mansion. the b2-track >zoo< is the beat track of the record. it relies on its cool driving sequences and the hypnotic feeling it creates through them. adding small changes here and there that keep the track constantly going.

nice price deal !!! a deep grooving soulful affair!! includes 2 nice remixes by atjazz!! the remix on a side is a scratchy techy peaktime bomb while the dub should please the morning crowd!! ltd backstock

repress! this track was already teasing us on one of theos mix cds and now sees the daylight finally!! a choir of children sings a loose line over a raw rare groove/disco like house beat. kicks are deep and hard. again theres a lot happening throughout the track making this an adventurous listen. on the flip a more obscure outing, edgy keys, a vocal hookup on a very moving rhythm track, another example of a long spun out theo trip. tip!!

lfm (love for music) or more commonly known as stilove4music is back with a straight banger from detroit and what a treat it is. with countless releases under his belt and with kdj, theo parrish & marcellus pittman under the 3 chairs moniker, the godson aka rick wilhite is already a legend in his own right. his productions are simply unique. can you feel me is ricks second offering for lfm. it is a deep, relentless detroit house joint perfect for the late late night set. dj marquis – a newcomer on the detroit house scene – set things straight with a soulful house jewel – head over heels that somehow should make any new jersey producer worried for a minute. finally, tj dumas, one of the creator of the beatdown crew, set things straight with his personal vision of disco. these are the lost tracks from detroit, songs made by detroiters for detroits sweaty dancefloors. enjoy a rare piece of music. ltd backstock

after the success of their digital releases this is our first dark beat remixes vinyl which has cuts from the very popular omen and untamed eps from label bosses deepbass & roman toletski.
on the a side we have oddity with a massive remix from mark broom. his remix of oddity is a no nonsense stripped back techno affair with a ripping synth line, the track teases you with a number off small drops before the massive atmospheric breakdown which would bring carnage on any dance floor.
on the b side we have the orb theory with a remix from edit select who seems to be able to to no wrong with his string of releases on his self named label edit select records. his remix explores the realms of atmospherical techno and has a straight up tribal feel about it, this track has been creating quite a fuss at berlins berghain during the early hours. the track has a percussive drive with rolling snares and a beautiful synth line that rises and fades throughout the track.
the tracks have been getting massive support from dubfire, len faki, jpls, ambivalent, drumcell, audio injection, dustin zahn, perc, dj emerson, alan fitzpatrick, alex bau, anderson noise, danny tenaglia, chris fortier, jim masters, par grindvik, hernan cattaneo, anthony pappa and luke slater.

>convultions< is a real dancefloor weapon, the robotic riddim subtly brings a deep sub-bass becoming more and more insistent, the beats never stop evolving along the journey, the breaks hit your senses, pure badness from this ultra precise producer!
>let me drive now< brings you to a beautifully produced track through magical percussion, galactic synths and smoky atmospheres, somewhat akin to 2562s latest directions. a beautiful piece of music, tightly produced by helixir, who shows again his mastery of the studio and modern bass music.

igor jadranin aka en-tropic signs his new ep – >between two extremes<, for the record label underground limited.this release clearly proves igors unmatched talent and maturity in music production. the lead theme of this ep >between two extremes< – a very deep and powerful theme, carefully broken by rhythm and still a gentle and emotional jazzy looped composition – is surely my personal favorite from this release.cooperation with marko vukovic is embodied in the track >back again< – a minimal deep house filled with rhythm, not the kind of rhythm produced by percussions and other drumming instruments but rather by a cut vocal and dirty synth, which breathe soul into this theme.
>zero loss circuit<, which has an expressed club spirit, is the ideal piece for building an atmosphere in a club. igors music definitively deserves a spot on every good djs list.
(zoran petkovski review)

after almost a year in prison for shoplifting, laverne is finally out on probation and brings you an ep that moves from threatening messages (ass tosser) to valuable life lessons found in groove on & deep moves. the ep got full support in the penitentiary from the likes of slick rick, lil kim and a whole lot of bitches n hoes allegedly connected with the wu-tang. watch your back - the l train is comin!

the musical evolution of matthias tanzmann as producer is in full swing - a quick look over his releases and remixes of the last year reveals an ease and sophistication, as hefurther progresses the reduction of house music. and with great pleasure we get to provide his pinnacle of the year so far, >chano<, the two versions of the track demonstrating just where house can take you on the threshold of a new decade. the a side concentrates on a percussive rhythm and a lyrical vocal, its carefully placed sounds building the track into a dynamic and hypnotic whole. the b side of >chano< is arranged more classically - a deep chord, a clear beat, accentuated hi-hats and claps…

a2 is one of those tracks that will cause a lot of fun in your local recordstore when somebody tries to explain the staff the name of this track he is looking for ,-) besides that its a cool minimal-ish tricky groovetool with soulful vocals and a very unique vibe.
b1 is a classic deep and hypnotic chordanthem, slowly building in a hypnotic way and delivering its full dancefloor effect right after the main break.
the sweno n remix is perfect for the bigger floors: clean and straight production, techy vibe, driving chord stabs - this is a perfect dancefloor-destroyer for the middle of the night.

a1) new love - this elevating new track is deep, funky and sexy. the beat is ever growing, the bass never ending. disco mixes with deep winking and eye to electro. b1) low down - sounds like a completely different atmosphere. still funky, its the perfect tune for a poolside party in la as the sun is going down... smart, sexy ladies get the party started moving to this disco house dance tune. b2) dont stop is the natural conclusion to this 12inch. we re at the break of dawn when this drops, as the sun is rising. slow bpms and vocal intermissions for those whose feet still want to move to the groove.

like roy ayers about 25 years before them those two ny house cuts are paying tribute to their hometurf - the title isnt the only similarity also e mans voice - which already helped its yours to become this years house smash - bares a strong resemblance to the 70s jazz funk master. kerri chandler again proves his unchallenged production mastery with a bottom-heavy, deep house groove - big

percussions, drifty hypnotic beats, a touch of soul and marvellously deep ... house is a feeling and ray okpara has his finger firmly on the pulse, leading the way.

progressive house / deep trance! incl. eniac remix. when hearing >how long is now<, you are immediately taken into a tepid ibiza summernight. on top of that, none the less than infamous eniac is completing the package with a very strong remix. eniac is the mastermind for many big productions like tom novy vs eniac >superstar< or tomkrafts uk number 1 hit >loneliness<. let the melody get deep in your heart and mind!

warehouse find . brand new release from levon vincent on his own novel sound label. limited edition, stamped white labels. this is a hot, hot 12 inch and we absolutely love it!!! a handful of releases on novel sound, decontruct music and his simply amazing recent remix for clone have forced everyone to recognize one of the biggest talents to come out of new york in recent years - levon vincent. >double jointed sex freak< is a dirty, stomping three track ep with deep and dubby elements, rough house beats and vocal repetitions that even remind us of some old chicago jack trax. needless to say this is highly recommended. tip!

deepchild is based in australia and has recorded for resopal in the past. he is playing worldwide and on trapez parties in 2010 !

blackstrobe are back from beyond. their newest dance floor gems are a foray back into the darkest realms of disco with their unique blend of boogietrance, softgoth, gaybiker house music. on their latest release they employ deep gothy hooks that match perfectly with a nostalgic italo flair and dark disco pulses. dancefloor zombies and casual listeners should find these retro-futurist tracks akin to the worlds of john carpenter and the twilight zone. trevor jackson >great release< // chloé >good tracks, will play them< // dj hell >great single<
