repress - next up on sneaker social club is a fresh 12inch from robin clarke a.k.a dream cycle. after a chance meeting at gottwood in 2016 a bond was established between clarke and label owner jamie russell over a shared love of 2 bad mice and moving shadow and now, channeling elements of that influence, clarke presents his dream cycle part.1 ep. unfolding over 4 steppy tracks and an ambient closer, clarke melds sharp snares, summery motifs, dense atmospheres and thick subs whilst keeping things suffused with a distinctly uk quality that marries his work perfectly with the sneaker catalogue. dj support: ryan elliott, dj die, the black madonna, octo octa, bwana, altered natives, noodles (groove chronicles), liem (lehult), deejay astral, la4a, 2 bad mice, fred p, matt karmil, flori, marco zenker, j.rocc (lol at comment!), ajukaja, gnork, william djoko, till von sein, fold, asok, gene farris, dj bwin, seven davis jr, trp, dj octopus, dj normal 4, gerd, dean man s chest, poté, doc scott, violet, james welsh (kamera), konx-om-pax, etch, raresh, hrdvsion, michael serafini (gramaphone), soundbwoy killah, dj guy, mak & pasteman, shenoda, urulu, mark archer & james zabiela, zinc, lehult, jackie house, mosca, noodles (groove chronicles) & dj die

eine weitere terra magica veröffentlichung steht an! mit künstlern aus der ganzen welt wie poly chain, mogwaa, jacques satre, jai, dj normal 4, imogen soundsystem - ilija rudman und antonio zuza, gee dee, rambal cochet, listensport, johnmon und hektisch sprengen djs.

dies ist die erste veröffentlichung des brandneuen vinyl labels terra magica rec., das von den münchner musikproduzenten und djs mirko hecktor und tom sprenger in der pandemiezeit 2021 gegründet wurde.

after his first ep for l.i.e.s. last year, tzusing is back with his impeccably produced style of industrial and ebm influenced machine grinding cuts.
the tracks on this ep represent the climate of clubbing yesteryear when it was normal for djs to play such things as ministry, front 242, or nitzer ebb next to a disco track next to a breakbeat track and so forth and to say these tracks could be heard somewhere like medusas would not be off base. driving, engaging and downright gnarly we can only hope these sounds foreshadow things opening back up on the floor as time pushs forward.

the debut 12inch from finnish duo hannulelauri! first up is glittering night, conjuring visions of 8 bit videogame soundtracks applied to the dancefloor, or an alternative theme to the movie robocop (which lauri seems to have a strong affinity for), with shimmering electric synth chords washing over a commodore 64 groove before a peter hook soundalike drops a lovely bassline, making new order comparisons inevitable (a good thing!). perfect late night machine funk. next is sally 2000, a more introspective piece with insistent digital strings providing the foundation for a childlike toy chime melody, pulsating bass and more as layer upon layer builds to a fuzzed out, pixelated yet beatless climax. finally, the late night vibe continues as sally 2000 gets a version from finlands techno/house master jori hulkkonen who works the tracks pleading strings into a more dancefloor friendly mix, adding perfectly tuned drums and a nice, fat kick but keeping the synth melodies intact and the tempo slower than your normal electrohouse jam. adventurous djs looking for alternative moods need look no further! another strong flexx release.

as the dust begins to settle on the white isle and people become reacquainted with their normal way of life, ministry of sound comes to the rescue with the ultimate ibiza flu remedy. this is the essential round up of all the tracks that have been heating up the biggest party island in the world this summer. the huge tracklist features hit after hit from the biggest acts in music right now, calvin harris, example, dj fresh, chris brown, adele, wretch 32, nero, aloe blacc all feature alongside big room bangers from the biggest djÕs in the white isle, avicii, laidback luke, afrojack, above & beyond...
