sampler #3 from the global communication back in the box compilation album, the techno and ambient retrospective selected by tom middleton and mark pritchard, back together again after a 15 year hiatus. opening up this seriously hot four track ep is an ultra rare and often overlooked carl craig remix of yennek, aka kenny larkin. two detroit pioneers collide on this beauty, with delicate oscillating keys gliding over a heavyweight breakbeat and clattering hats, a signature style of carl s. the track really kicks in with the bassline and monumental pitch bending synth stabs. a real must have for anyone with a love for the original detroit sound

dont we all feel suspended in time sometimes? the older you get the more difficult it becomes tofollow a straight time line through your past. some years felt really long and some others didnt andespecially when you think about your childhood, time seems to be something pretty vague. but that makes life so special from time to time, the million ways of feeling how time passes by. the fact that our time is limited, is probably the biggest impulsion we have. without an impulsion to do, change or create something, life would be pretty boring. so smoke some nice icegrass, play this shit loud and get suspended in time! peace

and here it is: the second vinyl ep of niko schwinds album >good morning midnight<. it features some of the unique tracks that niko has created together with some of berlins hottest production talents. on the a side are two tracks that feature the clicky tech-house boys that are channel x, where things kick off with >back from the bar<. it sounds as the title suggests: a little wobbly, a little drunk, a little crazy, but also pretty magic. quite clearly this is an homage to one of berlins not-to-be-forgotten clubs that is unfortunately history now. but things continue on here at least with >dont turn the lights on<, a more straightforward dancefloor track, with a trumpet as the main protagonist. this is one of those tracks that keeps leading up to a real arms-in-the-air-moment if it wasn’t so damn housy at the same time. on the flip the magical connection between niko and label daddy oliver koletzki can be heard on >master of ceremony<, a chopped-up house track with epic dimensions. when things get to the piano breakdown, they get very musical and colossal before dropping back into a great house track. the stark contrast between the piano melody and the groove on this really make it. last but not least then, the original album opener >good morning< that features the singing of fran. it works great as a great album opener, but also perfectly as a slower and more thoughtful addition to a great ep

motion± and emi music japan proudly announce the disco legend dj harvey remix of japanese legendary electronic producer logic system! the single will be distributed through endless flight. logis system is well known as the fourth member of yellow magic orchestra and their most famous song >clash< which dj harvey included to his mix cd >sarcastic disco vol.2<. a side is harvey remix of >clash< and b side is unreleased song which is composed in 80s. any explain and more introduction are not necessary for this release. dont miss this amazing collaboration of logic system and dj harvey!

the newest addition to night slugs vinyl-only nswl series will make a lot of djs happy. on the a side, kingdom edits girl units hyper-dramatic >every time<, stripping out the original vocal chops, and adding in their place the voice of a of a certain unmentionable but iconic r&b star. this is a bootleg thats been a staple of many night slugs sets from the last few months - not to be missed. on the flip, by popular demand ns press up kingdoms >fogs<, a track that never saw vinyl the first time round. a mystical eski melody moves into a moody and stripped down stepper, in turn exploding into unexpected 4x4 as kingdom manipulates yet more r&b vocals like only he knows how. this 12 inch is strictly limited so once its gone, its gone. dont sleep!

tube10 returns with their 10th release already and their not mucking about! usas own don distal is stepping up with the ever epic >apple bottom< is it juke? no! is it house? no! is it dubstep? hell no! apple bottom is a hybrid tune is there ever was one ... this one smashes the dancefloor and leaves the crowd begging for more. with its juicy form and rave like edits its obvious that distal is no one day fly. with releases set for pinchs tectonic label and sindens grizzly you will know what to expect from this guy.
flip it over for >space graffiti< another piece of interstellar vandalism. this time distal shows what he is worth on a more dubby side. dont underestimate this one as this will pound any speaker system to bits with its firm deep bassline. let the tribal beats pick you up and put you down wherever you want to!

founded in 2007 by julien henry (synths & vocals) & marc aumont (bass & vocals), rafale got the meters in overdrive right from the start. they played festivals after festivals (les trans musicales, les découvertes du printemps de bourges, astropolis, art rock...) & stood out thanks to inflammatory shows in which raw rock power melts with rapturous clubbing rave. after the release of two eps (rock it, dont stop itt - excessively blogged - & drive, one of year 2009’s best videos according to french magazine les inrocks) & with the support of the media, this double act grew to a trio when franck richard joined on the drums to work on a third ep produced by arnaud rebotini (blackstrobe):eraser. today rafale releases its brand new 12 inch produced by arnaud rebotini, everglades.

brand new on exit records from arguably one of the most prolific artists this year asc – this release follows on nicely from his more experimental direction showcased on his auxiliary label. discordant almost industrial-esque soundscapes with an amazing depth, these tunes have been aired regularly by the likes of dbridge, instra:mental and more. dont sleep on this one!

summer 2010. neuland. here, we were met schieres and his machines. lovely. this ep is dedicated to neuland and zucker. we love you – we miss you – we will miss you. dont think about what you have lost. warm nights, between burning couches and nothingness. empty ideas were born. we are lost and people are sure to forget.

benoit & sergio dont make dance tracks—they tell stories. in the washington dc duos music, a sense of place and narrative infuse their rhythms and melodies, transcending having flexed their synth-pop muscles on releases for dfa (the acclaimed boy trouble ep) and visionquest (the lovelorn where the freaks have no name ep), dc duo benoit & sergio return to spectral sound for a victory lap around the dancefloor. and >let me count the ways< is just that, sounding every bit the perfect, hands-in-the-air final anthem of the evening. tireless hi-hats push the beat onward and dreamy synthesized strings saturate the stereo space as sergio intones, >let me count the ways / the ways that ive loved.< as the line repeats, its meaning bends to fit the songs tone of endless, time-suspended romance: its not the loves that matter in the end, but the ways. its not the destination, but the journey. the b-sides >let me count the ways (autumn version)<is a vastly different take on the original?s maximalist swell. stripping the beat back to its bare essentials and building them up again over nearly 12 minutes, the >autumn version< recalls arthur russell?s more minimal moments down to its wobbly bass filigree and mumbled vocal samples. by the end of the track, the claps are falling on the twos and fours like crinkly foliage, synths are sizzling like firewood, and benoit & sergio?s newest banger is revealed in its full glory once again.

nice price deal !!! we are very proud to announce the debut release of a truly outstanding new musical project called >the goon show<. not much is known about this project, as the tracks reached us totally out of the blue, so to speak. the project consists of two experienced electronic wizards situated in berlin and is the first joint effort in the music world. their debut 12 inch features the wonderful and almost impossible to categorize track >angel band<, or as american music journalist philip sherburne put it:> the production on is really spongy and weird and enveloping, and the voice works so well with it, , this is really good, and i dont say that lightly!<. further admirers and supporters are the djs and producers osunlade, efdemin, adultnapper and many others. >angel band< comes in three versions, an acappella, a dub and the blasting original. as a bonus track, which is not just a b-side, but would be an amazing a-side on many other releases comes the beautifully melancholic >the grass<, of which our dear friend aksel schaufler aka superpitcher has said: >i love it and was in tears while listening to -the grass- !< . limited copies, get them while they re out there!

mehr northern soul-rarit?ten auf 7 inch vinyl! erstmals auf 7 inch: das ultrarare >my baby changes like the weather< der mayfield singers!

faze action maintain their fine run of form in 2011 with this four tracker from the shack, aka guy williams and dan williams (not related!) both have been active in dance music from the early 90s, with guy holding dj residencies at clubs such as the ministry of sound and turnmills during their pomp while dan williams aka d.r.w carved a career as a singer/songwriter. together as the shack they have absolutely nailed it with >touch it<, a sleazy-does-it italo peak time jam. arpeggiated synth lines, catchy vocal hooks and instant bassline work in jotous unison with some cowbell carnage. the 12 inch comes replete with a dub version and boogie influence faze action remix. rounding off the release is another original cut, namely >dont stop, in which tough drums combine with a late night vocal intoning the track title to bewitching effect. this shack attack has already found its way into the record bags of pete herbert and severino - expect it to be in many more come summer s end.

first outing on sino by paris-based up-and-coming techno producer, zadig. >p8<, on the a, is a mindblowing dark dancefloor anthem, while >reflection n< on the b delivers a rather dubbier and melodic approach of zadig’s sound. all in all, >p8< is an ep to be hailed as a milestone in the sino catalog. dont miss it!

nice price deal !!! the music of the cologne based duo kitbuilders can be described as electro with scifi-punkrock-energy and a grebo edge. a remarkable element in the tracks are the vocals of female singer ripley. in the kitbuilders-cosmos you will also find the sparks in their moroderphase, chris and cosey, neu and devo. but their music is not 80s retro stuff, they include a lot of futuristic and fresh elements in their songs. after a handful of 12 inch singles and compilation appearances on labels like electrecord, world electric, vertical and ersatz audio, >wake up< was the debut full length from the duo. the us magazine xlr8r called it >...an excellent hybrid of the past and present<. alongside american outfits like adult. and fischerspooner, kitbuilders are at the forefront of the worldwide electro revolution. equal parts moroder and liquid sky, the duo of benway and ripley fluctuate between adrenaline-rush bpm 909 beats, fluttering sci-fi arpeggiations and tense, sinister moodiness.

300 copies, vinyl only, authentic, raw, underground. the second offering from laak on their austere imprint is another defined four tracker. >back of beyond< kicks things off, a sincere heads down jam combining latin percussion elements with a killer bass line and warm chords. the second track, >dont ever leave< is a heartfelt lament on the feeling of loss, slowing the tempo down, this one is deep! on the flip, >cosmic causeway< offers something a little different although keeping with the warm pads, this time the use of a spaced out trumpet keeps things flowing. the remaining track >cantankerous emotions< is a little different as regards to the beats, but loses none of the soul and profoundness of the other tracks. only for the underground soldiers!

a new 3-track 12 by canadas solvent, known for his melodic electro and vocoder pop releases on ghostly, morr music, and his own suction records. for minimalrome, solvent debuts a new approach, so please dont expect any sweet solvent melodies this time, in fact, dont expect any melodies at all. here solvent delivers 3 tracks of pure bunker/rephlex-style acid, monotonous and pounding. fasten is the most straight-up acid track present, nothing but 707/606 percussion + x0xb0x squelch. latch and secure are more dark, abstract, dirty. secure is epic madness, clocking in at over 16 minutes, at times slow and prodding, elsewhere growling furiously in sheets of distortion. every track has been edited down from hour+ long hardware studio jams, with the computer acting strictly as a multi-track audio recorder. solvents customized acid box, a heavily modified x0xb0x, features heavily on every track, alongside classic techno boxes like the 808, 101, and pro one. limited to 250 copie

this is the second single release from hardfloors last album >two guys three boxes<. after the highly acclaimed >texas trill remixes< in 2008, e.r.p.

r&bs most enduring duo nickolas ashford & valerie simpson sure know how to make it right when it comes to soulful r&b gems and lush dance grooves from golden era of 70s soul and disco. they recorded for warner bros. from 73 through to the early 80s, and rhinos ashford & simpson - the warner bros. years: the 12 inch collection both rediscovers and re-imagines the best of those years.

the opening track from the debut simon baker album was always going to be a strong choice to be the first single. no pressure has received unanimous praise since the albums release and is back with new remixes by art department and simon himself. its rare to get great stand out vocal tracks that dont split opinion, but this seems to be one of them. its slick, deep house of the highest calibre with a stand out hooky vocal from debukas. art department, owners of ras number one track of 2010 drop a superb remix, adding new vocals and teasing debukas back into the mix for a pretty special, hypnotic workout. simons >upstate dub< mix finishes things off. it aims things directly at the dancefloor in his signature, deep and twisting style.

the 5th release of goodvibe records sees hugo merging forces with gambo, a dj/producer from turin, a living legend of the citys underground scene. three tracks made of deep beats and dark disco atmosphere and a digital bonus remix from audiojack, the stunning duo of 20:20 vision family, an absolute amazing floor filler. from the desolate plains of mars and the frozen moons of the outer solar system, from the milky way to the ends of the universe, you will hear of wonders often hard to describe and sometimes even harder to fathom. a cosmic keyhole which it is easy to go through but really difficult to return.
