edit king leo zero returns with something very special to kick off a new run of no frills dancefloor bombs that have been tried and tested over the summer on a packed worldwide dj schedule from stockholm to tokyo and beyond. first up is an intensive slice and dice exercise on probably the best track from definitely the best band in the world: the clash. leo takes their most disco friendly outing >the maginificent dance< famously spun by mr levan at the garage - and with the more dubby rare levan version he homes in on looped 1 bar sections, skating along to create a new arrangement - added to the brew are bootleg recordings form the clashes infamous live show at nycs bonds ballroom, and even some baseline demos digitally siphoned from people practicing guitar along to the clash on youtube!….. we are left with is an epic labour of love edit that has already found its way into the a-listers record boxes - from derrick carter to laurent garnier who are all spinning this solid as a rock dub disco bomb. on the flip we have a classy house re-work of al hudson & partners >music< which sticks a chi-town kick and snare up its rear end along with some serious sub bass, and in the middle things get all wobbly with some trademark leo zero space echo rides and before we are quickly warped back-in and onto the floor… big with a load of top jocks too including severino of horse meat disco fame.

ok we can do a long text here... but lets not do that.... fantastic track by recast (aka fluxion)! a blissed-out track that is lush and jazzy! the experience of years of precision crafting dubby tech soundscapes is brought to these tracks, which are grooving house vibes executed in the melodic but quirky manner of isolee or luomo. lorca music is on remix duty here and did a great job with a clattering, skittering groove that is somewhere between 2-step and brokenbeat, the result is heavy and provides a nice alternative to the two recast versions. this is pure techno as we like it... not the banging big room techno, but techno we know from pioneers such as derrick may, carl craig, john beltran, stefan robber and the likes. no shit... this is just one of the most beautiful records we ve heard in a while.

supported by: ben klock, marcel dettmann, ryan elliot, derrick may, cassy, rhadoo, zip, sven väth, pedro, raresh, dana ruh, davide squillace, radio slave, vera, dorian paic, spencer parker, tato,..edec is back to deliver a second offering of floor destroyers. this ep combines the forces of jon hester and the remix skills of dvs1, two purveyors of rhythm hailing from the hidden techno gem of minneapolis, usa. shouts in the dark (original mix) tough concrete beats pump the speakers with urgent rhythm to get pulses pounding. a danceable jack vibe permeates a punchy kick and ricochet percussion, with building pressure in undercurrent noise setting up a strong break. shouts slice through the percussion to make this an upbeat techno burner. shouts in the dark (dvs1 found the light mix) by adding some moody synths, noise, and reducing the percussion, dvs1 (transmat, klockworks) lifts this interpretation into beams of light. no more words to speak as bright versions of the original sounds weave their way into a tight groove under smooth, shimmering synth waves, punctuated by sharpened claps. shouts in the dark (dvs1 lost in the dark mix) dvs1s darker interpretation strips back to sparse synths, snapping highs, a deep kick, and pushed into the shadows.

abacus >my brazilian love< starts this ep with the ultimate deepness & is followed by >sometimes i feel like< written by alton miller, chez & trent & was originally released on derrick carters blue cucaracha label in 1994. >morning fever< & >love is the message< finish off the 12 inch

art-nr2 is the third release in art records remaster series following on from carl craigs >psyche/bfc< and kirk degiorgios >nairobi ep<. promenade eleven lives up to the billing of those illustrious predecessors, being a reverse-engineered remake of >night on the promenade< which originally appeared in limited quantities on the new religion label in 2006 under the name >super-a-loof<.
labelled at the time as a successor to classic techno tracks such as derrick mays >the beginning< and rolandos >knights of the jaguar<, this re-make will finally bring it to the wider audience it deserves via the art label.
