rise above is a 4 track 12 inch release thats takes inspiration from a dive to the depth of the 80s chicago house. each track brilliantly explores melancholy, and futurism with a strong sense of rhythm, while classic drum tones embrace the beauty of strings and pads, served with melodies that the heart will not forget. a classic, and definitely a must have record.

played by sascha dive, vera, sebo k, einzelkind on his first ep for tenderpark marquese proves to be a master of using his means. with only a few, but purposefully used elements with interesting modulations marquese creates two lean house tracks which nonetheless feel very round and harmonious. beautiful chords, subtle vocals and a powerful beat and bass fundament turn mindshake and twool into two deep house affairs which skilfully combine modernity and classicism.

manchesters hudd traxx imprint kicks off 2013 with a bang bringing you the omatsuri ep this january, a collaborative effort from spaniards javi bora and le vinyl.
javi bora and le vinyl have released music for reputable labels such as 2020 vision, off, robsoul, catwash and loco records. both producers maintain a heavy dj schedule on their home turf of spain and further afield, building their reputations as two of spains most prominent deep house artists. this record marks a milestone for hudd traxx as they reach their 40th release, its no surprise looking back that the label has such a highly praised reputation within the underground, having put out cuts from dj sneak, agnes, sascha dive, rick wade and rolando to name a few.

now keep your eyes and ears peeled for an original hreno! his music is best described when not described. although it has been likened to an unmanned, deep space, probe droid. or an unrelenting pony ride at a petting zoo. experiencing this music is like standing on a rivers edge, or on a vast precipice. either for the bathtub or a spring mounted dance-floor. hreno has opened his vaults. dive into a sonic experience, travel from country to country, forget boarders, feel your heart warm up, suddenly you are completely new. then portage to reach the other side and let yourself get lost ...

the ep opens with >black jack<, a percussive, grooveled workout built around next up is >as much as this<, applying similar drum programming tactics with a raw shuffled groove but this time opting for an esoteric vocal line and smooth house pads to fuel a deeper melodic movement. highly respected bass culture, off and robsoul artist chris carrier turns in a remix of >as much as this< to follow, stamping his signature french soulladen house sound on the original cut. the track captures a 90s feel through its crunchy 909 drums, loopy piano hook and acid squeaks and bleeps.

following the s_w_z_k debut album, which came out on tresor records before the summer, david brown offers here further insights into the most recent developments of his new departure. receiving the help of long-time collaborator and friend richard davis, the duo continues its dive into the concrete and metallic landscapes found on their eponymous lp effort. the variant & empires ep however marks somewhat of a slight departure from the obscure experimental investigations previously undertaken. tc4 variant is a roaring number, aiming specially at the dancefloor and taking the duos energy to its highest point, while second city of the empire intimately unveils the deeper side of their enterprise.

morgan zarates second release for hyperdub is a bold and unexpected move for him. he has been known in the past as the producer for leftfield soul group spacek and also currently as one half of the shining, signed to xl records, but with >broken heart collector< he has made some highly contagious dubstep pop, featuring rising singer / songwriter / producer stevie neale on vocals. stevie warns of a guy who is the titular >broken heart collector<. her rnb vocals contrast with a fierce storm of drums and vertiginous synths that attack like waves against rocks. it is a brilliant pop song, with a chorus earworm you might find hard to resist. there is also an instrumental included as well. the third track is >crey bey<, an energetic, grimy 8 bar instrumental. it shifts between dive-bombing synths and a spooked, nervous melody over a rich organ track, with martial kicks and snares guaranteed to get you bouncing.

six artists remix the rich sound material from sven kacireks lp >scarlet pitch dreams< (pingipung 32, april 2012). svens original percussion recordings and his densely layered melodies invite for a rework which fo- cuses on the single elements. robert lippok (to rococo rot, raster noton) turns the title track into a balearic sunshine dance until the voice and synthlines evoke a deep and driving witchhouse at- mosphere. absolutely awesome remix! opiate aka thomas knak from denmark (morr music) is one of pingipungs favourite artists in the world and we are very happy to have his remix included here. his highly individual syncopating beat works dive into the pool of svens percussions, with the snare and marimba always in the foreground.

muscle records is a label for upfront dirty dance music. all tracks are conceived naturally and recorded on tape, so an elemental and honest approach is required to fully dive into muscle records sounds. riviera is a band formed by a bunch of young talented gritty analogue junkies, most of which has already released on a couple of disrespected labels. the band first jams were recorded on parching tape in a sultry warehoue close to the brentas muddy banks with a noisy dockyard of transistors delights. muscle records is to pride to present this piece of melting techno beats. the strictly limited (300 copies) sr11 e.p. has already got enthusiast feedbacks by blawan, steffi, pariah, rivet, cosmin trg, marcel dettmann, the analogue cops, alex picone, ben ufo.

as re-mixers, they have already made two fine contributions to schallbox-releases, now they finally get their own track on the swiss label. 12 most definetly belongs to the smalltown collective!
the name of the track is tiefblau and it speaks for itself: you are transported by a pushing, bass-generated pressure capsule down along a hypnotic groove line and into a deep blue ocean. the smalltown collective really exploit the merits of the acoustic stage here, pulling together a compelling and diverse set of notes and tones carefully arranged to amount to a track you just cant shake.
in his interpretation, dj le roi stays true and to the deepest blue dive atmosphere of tiefblau, yet manages to make it completely his own. unmistakably tieflblau, unmistakably le roi.
the page logo belongs to berlin-based producer david keno, whos signature lies in lacing floor-oriented beats with a distinct melodic aspect. with his unique and secret recipe, keno tweaks/ treats this track as he does with so many stomping house tracks with a laid-back vibe. guaranteed to work on any dance floor in the world!

imugem orihasam is one of japans most exciting and driven electronic music composers. with a slew of releases on the likes of ilian tape, sistrum and new kanada, to name but a few, he is clearly a man on a mission. he started out making hip hop beats in 1997 but by 2000 exposure to jeff mills by a close friend ignited a fire that burns deep and blue. upon listening to these four tracks two things becomes clear, imugems unique vision as well as his immaculate sound design and production sensibility. the tracks are deep but propulsive, futuristic yet filled with emotion. dive in.

deep floors vol. 1 is the first installment of a various artists series, combining the dancefloor energy and the mental deepness of proper techno. volume 1 delivers 4 deep techno tracks by irelands lee holman, swedens pehr genlogue, italys roberto bosco and belgiums searle. sonically the release ranges from mental cerebral trips to deeper detroitish grooves. lee holman and roberto bosco deliver two hypnotic mindfuck tools while perh genlogue and searle dive more into deeper stripped techno.

above machine is a record label run by steve lee (the project club). seconds is the alter ego of markus enochson and luciano leiva. together with singer linus lutthi they deliver >another day< which is a breezy, balearic affair with the solemn moodiness of nick drake. it is reminiscent of late end-of-summer days when time seems to stand still, but in the most bittersweet of ways. remixes are provided by lexx - who once again adds that subtle disco blend whilst drinking an estrella at the beach bar. the seahawks dive deep and provide an ambient masterpiece, which lures you deeper into their crazy world of delays, reverb and a studer a80 running backwards in a shoreditch broom cupboard.

after the smooth sonic assault of invisible sunrise, seahawks dive deep and return with the immersive aquatic opus that is tender abyssin the tradition of oceanic soundscapes by the likes of dolphins into the future and jurgen muller, seahawks have created a deep listening experience that takes you way down beyond the mariana trench. part one reveals a world of storms, where wild encounters and unexplained phenomena precipitate aquatic hallucinations. part two illuminates an underwater world of wonder, a sensory cornucopia, where soft vistas unfurl as the mind relaxes in an ocean of bliss. take a deep breath and enter the tender abyss. as always with seahawks releases the album is beautifully packaged and extremely limited.

kitsunes latest project, kitsune america, brings you americas new wave!

like hardly any other ambassador of modern rhein main house music, christian burkhardt has experienced a true rocket-like takeoff in the last year. burkhardts cocoon debut ep stopover goa has, after one year, still a place of honour in many djs record cases. also his legendary live set in the pouring rain at last years green & blue may belong to the lasting memories of a life dedicated to electronic music. the heidelberg-born producer has already worked for la peña, raum…musik and oslo, and his collaborations with einzelkind and sascha dive became a talking point, too. with his second ep for cocoon, he again sets new standards. theres nobody around who is able to alienate vocals from the collective memory of afro-american culture into a hallucinogenic cocktail without harmful side effects in such a way than burkhardt is. nevertheless, and despite the massive, forward-pushing bass drum and hand claps, he never loses the focus of his soul. so - open your mind, we wish you lots of fun with heart and mind and the considerably acid-like waffles, while the tropical-hypnotic seagull atmosphere of twentysecondcenturydrama already whets the appetite for the upcoming club summer season of 2012.

the producer behind these mind-blowing slabs of heavyweight disco-funk perfection was one jp source, an exile from the geordie ibiza (that will be blackpool) and geordie mecca (erm, newcastle) now living out in the sticks in the states, far from home. the eps title, >get your bearings<, is reference to his struggles to come to terms with his new surroundings.
three tracks, all tried and tested, all disco dynamite. since he sent us these killer edits, jp source has begun to pick up interest elsewhere. he recently released an excellent ep of original material on audio parallax and has material forthcoming on edit, zzr and art star records. we reckon he has got a big future. all the more reason to >get your bearings< and dive into his bedmo disco debut…

samuels debut for tartelet records is a three-track lesson in diversity. using the dingy dive bars and trance-inducing techno clubs of copenhagen as his playground, producer/dj samuel andré madsen is fast on his way to becoming an internationally recognized exponent of timeless techno and classic, effervescent house.

jax is a collective of like-minded artists, musicians, thinkers movers and booty-shakers, who believe there is more to records than just some grooves engraved into black plastic. their vision is to treat each release as a presentation in itself, complete with original and individual artwork, features and an exhibition. each production will feature artwork shown in a cube of about 8 cubic meters. every record-released will be strictly-limited to 500 copies, which includes a poster referencing the piece made by the artist! daniel roth was born in seeheim near frankfurt. he started to experiment with different styles of electronical music using an akai mpc and a juno 106 in 1997. by this time he wasnt thinking of making music his profession. he then started his studies in skulpturing at the städel in frankfurt. after having finished art school he took up producing music again, influenced by his art and contemporary dance music styles. with his jax release he showcases his ability to combine different elements with his unique touch.
