dj ageishi is like the sensei of japanese djs: a true legend and active since 1973, he can scoop from an incredible musical wealth of experiences yet has his ear to whats happening in the now. this mixture of knowledge and curiosity for the new also characterizes his debut on internasjonal with colleague dj akin, who left his mark outside of japan with a remix for brennan greens >900lb man<. rattling drum breaks from the funk end of disco are the backbone for a soprano sax lick slightly remiscent of coltranes >a love supreme< that floats on top of noise distortet sheets of synth before the >rain parade< makes a total turn ending with a comforting lullaby like rhodes melody. prins thomas boils it all down to a simmering slow dub remake, while mark e lets all the single ingredients patiently lets every ingredient from the original develop its full-bodied flavour before kicking up the heat.

prins thomas spreads proper, earthy dub house vibes in a good old bobby konders tradition with >lang tung ting<. a hard driving jacker with dry, punching drums and grumbling, low-frequency acidic sounds not modulated by an 808 synth but from warped cello and bassoon lines. an ode to the timeless magic of beats and bass. much less sparse >ny maskin< on the flip is a dizzying disco/ rock jam backed by african derived beats and a gyranting, buoyant guitar lick . prins thomas brilliantly proves himself a jack of many trades again

accompanying the debut lp remix ep number 2 straddling the realms of dubstep, house and disco from an ever emerging pool of old and new guard. remixes on the dub orientated ep with mark e, session victim and riley reinhold. duffsteps debut album >getting to sirius< is a heady potion laced with influences of dub and down tempo beats, winding through layers of melody and synths whilst vocals soften the blow providing a nice, warm and fuzzy edge to the thick slabs of sonic concrete. though you wont have to wait before a nice big bass-line knocks you down on your arse again

sampler 12 inch of tom tragos upcoming album >iris<! leading up to tom tragos debut album >iris<, to be released april 2011, comes this three track sampler. the tracks featured here show the diverse nature of the album, which can be best described as a futuristic soul album. after releasing his double ep >voyage direct<, early 2009, tom has spent the last two years finding his signature sound. the outcome of this search has resulted in >iris<. where >voyage direct< was his homage to disco, >iris< deals with all of toms musical inspirations. shaping these inspirations into a new sound and creating an exciting mix is where tom really succeeds. the three tracks on the sampler all deal with merging the old with the new. >being with you< is a match made in heaven between electronic music and r&b, >space balloon< lets disco and funk make love in a spaceship. what you do is a future version of late 80s chicago hip house, which features tyree cooper (who, together with fast eddie, invented the genre).

exclusively remastered by tom moulton from the original master tapes of this disco classic!

top quality remastered reissue of ike strongs disco boogie classic >boogie land<. originally released back in 1981 on the tiny underground disco label willker, this dancefloor bomb is now hugely in-demand.
both sides are absolute killers - the a side features great vocals from ike strong over super funky phat bass and wah wah guitars but dont forget the flip side where the groove get stripped down to the bare instrumental funk with just the relentless driving female vocal >you cant help but dance when you hear it boogie land< - she couldnt be more right! must have.

head-turning singles >tuff enough< and >take em up< from marcus >shit robot< lambkins fantastic debut, from the cradle to the rave, get reinvented by two of the most talented dj/producers working in electronic music. on the a-side is germanys michael mayers epically inventive take on >tuff enuff<. less muscular than lambkins original, the remix softens things up by placing supple keys under the hardened exterior. the climax is an otherworldly listening experience that literally builds to take off. on the flip, john talabots remix of >take em up< starts like a laidback house party that builds just enough energy when its relocated under disco lights. the haunting opening — a swirling, ghostly blend of elliptical vocals and handclaps — leads to a sonic journey that is as smooth as it is wholly entrancing. this fantastic coupling of tracks is being produced in very short supply, so snap them up quickly!

averse to any easy classification, rainbow arabias continent-trekking, kaleidoscope pop is rooted in no particular time or place, employing modern technological processes to an array of musical cultures and eras. the los angeles duo began with the purchase of a lebanese casio that played microtonal scales and eastern beats, with which they quickly recorded their propulsive first ep, the basta, synthesizing bossa nova and industrial post-punk with heavy middle eastern vibes. digging deeper for inspiration from the worldly found sounds of sublime frequencies compilations, their follow-up ep, kabukimono, expanded the color palette of their >fourth world< pop with dark, arabic disco-dancehall jams sitting alongside sunnier moments with caribbean and african flourishes...

if it is about contemporary house music, there is no way of avoiding the northern djs & producers. first and foremost with roberto rodriguez aka manolo, who has shaped his personal funk infected old-school vibe over the last years and helped the house revive without forgetting from where it came from. his future beat investigators strictly followed the detroit heritage and his acid kings membership gave us lust for the roland tb 303 again. the bermuda project came back to cosmic again and had more than an impact on the nu disco styles. it is his pertinent mix of soulful, funky & functional dancefloor and his his effective productions who convinced the tastemakers worldwide and prepared his ground for top notch releases on labels like compost, 2020vision, freerange or delusions of grandeur and remixes for acts like yoko ono, tigerstripes, jay shepheard, the timewriter, marmion, crazy p, bellringers or vanessa daou. now the time has come for his own platform called serenades, featuring the manolesque ep - for those who like it deep, down & funky!

slamming classic chicago house, now 2011 with fresh updated edits

ulysses dj career began in 1991, when he started his universitys first techno radio show. shortly after graduating he returned to his hometown and became a player in the late-90s electro scene in new york, running some of the earliest large-scale electro parties in new york. guests included legends such as alexander robotnick and arthur baker, as well as recent stars like i.f., miss kitten and the hacker and adult. ulysses is not only about party promotion, however, and a close look at his diverse musical career will quickly shatter this misconception. although a long-time advocate of obscure disco and classic techno, ulysses is currently best known for the piano house anthem robotic hypnotic adventure from his neurotic drum band collaboration with john selway. in addition to the ndb ulysses collaborates with thugfuckers holmar filipsson as filipsson & ulysses, who are releasing soon-to-be classic eps of emotive electronic disco on internasjonal and bearfunk records. ulysses still continues to chart his own musical path with an incredible ep of dark pop for internasjonal spesial in the works, as well as some new club-friendly dance tracks on wurst and his solo debut for throne of blood. the acid reflux ep represents the diversity of ulyssess talent, from banging acid tracks to moody downtempo and grooving electronic house. to round things out ulysses recruited prins thomas to deliver an unprecedented nine-minute rerub of >acid reflux< that preserves the originals 303 groove but injects a heaping dose of cosmic atmosphere and live instrumentation into the mix. essential
