supported by: alex agore, skipson, roman rauch, marquese, drei farbenhouse,ynks second ep for tenderpark approaches the subject tenderness with a lot of feel for musicality: on dana limes the young man from frankfurt combines gentle piano melodies with multi-faceted, powerful rhythms and a feld recording the musician has recorded in helsinki.park theme relies on an even more subtle feld recording from a small park in vienna, slows down the tempo and delights us with a deep black bass groove.and with the piano piece etude ynk not only proves his love for this instrument once more, but also shows compositional skills which reach way beyond the standards in the electronic music scene.

back 2 back is built around a spontaneous live jam by dj pippi, tucillo and kiko navarro in dj pippis studio on ibiza. in a few hours they had finished the track. the ep opens with tucillo and willi graffs dub, a muscular, driving, stripped down rework of the original for a popping dance floor. kokis back dub is also a floor tool that has been well tested this summer by kiko navarro with great results. the ep finishes with a very cool afriki soul remix by bhoddi satva.

russian cool cat sportloto (aka andrey rublev) is making quite a name for himself in the remix realm. he comes from the western urals and makes some of the most splendid electronic music around.the title track >will i< started out as an instrumental on our sister labels tirk03 sampler.after bags of attention and plaudits we decided to nudge things into vocal-drive and add a nifty vocal.michelle bee ably assists with a smouldering and sultry tones. if chord movements and darting electronic lines and arpeggios are your thing then you will love the original.on the remix tip fabrizio mamarella (1/3 of clap rules and bearfunk big dog) chips in with the remix.he takes the organic analog route and trims things down nicely for the dance floor.to round off the package and give an enticing glimpse into the cool production skills of andrey,weve also included the track metamorphosis.andrey is busy at work on his debut album for nang as we speak!stay tuned.

sometime you cant keep a good remix down, and we certainly felt that with these two beastly versions by two very exciting producers of bass music.

played by sven väth !!! night voyage tool kit is the collaborative project of two like-minded producers, night slugs bok bok and tom trago, curator of the rush hour labels voyage direct series. originally commissioned by sound pellegrino label boss teki latex, this is the result of four intense days and nights in toms amsterdam studio, surrounded by hardware and enshrouded in a thick haze. having pursued very different directions in their respective solo work, the duo find common ground in minimalism, dj tools, the neptunes and ghetto house. the result is a collection of stripped down rhythm tracks aimed straight for the club: the arpeggiator workout of pathfinder, vectors cosmic jeep bass, pom clash and its grimey lil louis tribute, and the acid epic lil ma bonus beat.

nazareths second 74 album >rampant< finds the group tempering the four-on-the-floor hard rock attack they developed on >loud and proud< by working a surprising and effective southern rock edge into the songs. the end result is an album that sounds like a early ac/dc meets lynyrd skynyrd at their hardest rocking. this gatefold sleeved, 180 grams audiophile edition of the album contains the b-side to the >love hurts< 7 inch single as a bonus. rock on!

free to be is a monstrous, house-submerged affair, as low-slung as they come and in a classic murk vibe. berliner hunee delivers a spot on remix on the title track and brings it into deeper territory reminiscent of early prescription releases. he is transforming the original mix into something fuller, warmer and almost epic. down to nothing is another slow pumping house nugget. with its soothing and soaring synths, ebb-and-flow arrangement, inviting melody and vocals, this is another bomb fitting every house set. things get even slower with why dont you. a great house tune with a sensuous vibe.

with marc poppcke s >mind revolution ep< we are proud to present crossfrontier audio s first artist ep, the second vinyl release, and the last release in 2011. after releases and remixes on labels like freerage, defected, soma and darkroom dubs and finishing his masters at the berlin university of arts, crossfrontier audio labelhead marc poppcke delivers his frist full artist ep in 2011. with a touch of house, a hint of progressive, some techno on top and everything garnished with a whiff of melancholy, marc brings us four tracks displaying his taste in music and his love for four-to-the-floor electronic club music. the tracks on this ep send you on a journey, perfect for the late hours of the night. he takes you up to space, spins you around, and brings you back down to earth with the drop, leaving you tumbling and now knowing where you are. just like it should be.

after his succes on mps005, argentinean producer tacito is back for some action on micropunto.another 12inch full of dubby flavours typical of tacitos production, plus an exclusive remix by giorgio gigli (zooloft, prologue) which rounds this release perfectly.this record starts with lession, a dub techno mover that opens nicely this ep with reverberating stabs and percussive loops throughout.leaks brings us to a more mellow and melancolic mood with a break in the middle with nice freezing stabs and mellifluous pads that hypnotize us throughout the track.giorgio giglis remix dont fail to surprise us. with his refined productions he takes the main track and does a stripped down, dubbier version with melodic pads, that gives this track, giorgios special moody imprint.the third track, las flores de fidel, is on a more funky tip with nice percussive sounds while the digital exlusive track hard to sleep, closes this ep elegantly with a mesmerizing composition full of narcotic sounds.

krl has been one to watch as his remixes are usually the standouts and his releases are always strongly supported. this release also includes a remix done by ethyl, a nice cherry atop this fine hot-fudge sundae.

ashley gets low down and dirty with the southern rock giants the black crowes. their >i aint hiding< track was a real marmite moment for their fans. ashley (being a fan) turns the stonesy disco rock track (think miss you) inside out to create a psychedelic dancefloor wig out. already a big fave with the horse meat disco crew this has been one of mr beedles most requested edits/reworks over the last couple of years and he has decided to let this one out the vaults. its a monster.

played by reboot, joris voorn, martinez, christian prommer, lee curtiss, sis, ... ever wondered what a butch diana ross on acid might sound like…? well youre about to find out… but before we get to overside, youve gotta enjoy and marvel at the sheer brilliance of the rest of jairo catelos latest offering on silicone souls darkroom dubs. our man from the asturias has rapidly built a strong and loyal following thanks to his beautifully crafted house cuts. jairos ability to bring together dubby textures and an innate soul within his productions is most enviable. his warehouse ep features three original new cuts backed by a rework from french house guru, phil weeks. lead cut soul school is something of a two-headed beast. whilst its kick-drum and dramatic synth stabs drive it with a serious dose of funk, it still retains a warm-summer soul that will keep the fillies moving. then, as a little sax break goes to our head, were flipped and the beats and bass get sleazy and old school. killer! mr. weeks beings some 90s flow to the table on his remix. working the guitar licks and bassline hard but always retaining a smooth as silk groove, phil shows just how to keep the dancefloor cookin. a beautiful house record from one of the very best. >yairos 303 acid< mix of overside finds us getting upside down and inside out. serious funk with an injection of some classic acid styles. final cut >the shake< sees jairo roll out drums. a lazy bassline is swarmed by ripping snares and a host of percussive sites and sounds. a perfect close to a pretty much perfect ep.

title track >lasers are forever< combines arpeggiating analog squelch, lush synth atmospherics and subtle percussion sequencing to lend itself an uncommon sense of drama, the effect of which is both compelling and visceral. on the flip, >hello darkness< takes a somewhat different approach: an imposing arp 2600 bassline pulses along front-and-center with a relentless acid-tinged snarl, while pounding drums and swelling pads complete this most banging of danses macabres. on remix duties are throne of blood alumni remain & mlle caro, who retain the key elements of their source material only to reveal an entirely different beast lurking beneath: the parisian duo take down the tempo a few notches and let swelling analog filters and unfurling lfos do the rest. meanwhile, get the curse music boss clement meyers deformhaus remix of >hello darkness< tightens the originals percussion to an industrial stomp and introduces a spooked-out synth line every bit as funky as it is uncanny- the end result lands somewhere between the boneyard and the discothèqu

on the a-side we have the cheeky >24 hour party sausage<, where garry takes us back to the sounds of the early 90s uk rave scene. its a peak time old school vocal affair with a raw, analog bassline, stuttered drums and chopped up stabbed vocals. stepping up for remix duty on this future classic is the mole who flips the original on its head and creates a dancefloor creeper for those darker club moments. winding the bassline and metallic beats between the rawness of the original groove and imparting his trademark spooky percussion, rhythms and eerie vocals. b-side >vacation in sunderland< is a love story with a firm salute to the classic down tempo us house of the 90s. its time to dust off those shell suits, high top sneakers and cazal shades and get ready for another slung back, funked out garry todd house jam with growling, rolling bass and seductive vocals and keys. on the remix front fellow illusion family members death on the balcony step up with a classic house masterstroke that compliments garrys slower and sleazier original. here dotb pick up the pace in a brilliantly original rework that accentuates the vocals and piano hook to create a summer house anthem - a stylish finish to another diverse installment from the illusion crew.

hailing from new zealand, truth and decoda have established themselves as true heavyweights of the dubstep scene. following releases on several high profile labels, and their hit album >puppets< truth lay it down for wheel & deal.
truth & decoda – the emperor: emperor is the heavy hitting, distorted reese tearout monster with a dramatic intro of horror film proportions. this follows the dark jump up vibe of wheel & deal, and will smash up any dance.
truth & dutty ranks – calling you back: this is a upbeat style track, reminiscent of the older dubstep sound. with a tribal skank and haunted garage style vocal, this is soulful but sub heavy in its own right.
these have had support from n-type, walsh, hatcha, and mistajam to name but a few.

part 1 is a oldschool jackin house track with some minimal touch. a peculiar bassline, some good hi-hats and hypnotic vocals. danceflloor bomb! part 2 is a deeper mix of part 1, based on the same bassline. it has a slower groove and a softer kick. amazing second chapter for the supercharged story. nuit blanche is a down tempo track full of surprises. totally killer!

surely with forward-looking ambitions, serbian fellow dejan milicevic drops his debut album trust and the purpose with style,non-compromisingly showing us how electronic music has no limits, only heart and soul is needed. he throws a good example how to gather different genres and styles into one great peace of art, one that certainly cant resist giving in without touching our heart.

first available (full stock) on decks.de !! turkey based ugur project is back with an outing on polluted records. following his success in music production and remixes he is pushing us through the house music boundaries, with four new original titles on esta si esta imprint. the sound choice on the track esta si esta follows through a nostalgic old skool house as it magically transforms into todays deep and chunky style. drop down house bliss, which will be later followed by a remix on digital by sossa, always on polluted records. the use of techno drum kit on the track magic drops fused with vocal snippets and synthesized voice over conversations is a journey into the future sound of tech house whilst on the track quadriga the rolling congas and base line are impeccable as a groove. the last track sudden music does just that, as suddenly a solid grove and synth pads becomes the explosion that rocks the body of all house music junkies.

first a made up sound release in over a year, following up on the rear window excursion on delsin, the clone basement release and the 2562 fever lp. it features that >left-right track?< heard in many a 2562 / a made up sound dj-sets over the last months. the flip contains a piece of congealed frustration we had to get out of our system before it got worse, as well as the original beatless version of the a-side to calm down again, somewhat. already massive reactions from all the hot guns but of course decide for yourself!

83370 is the first transmission from ollie viero and nico serrus, a pair of french brothers who grew up in a beach town along the coast of the french provence, saint-ayg, which has since become the basis for their name: sinteg. now based in montreal, their collective output has made up the bulk of fur trade recordings signature sound - this sixth label offering is the third to feature one of the two brothers at the helm. they are fresh and prolific and, as such, they are the sound of a new generation of montreal producers. vieros version of house music is upbeat, fiercely layered with percussive latinized shuffles and necksnapping samples. meanwhile, brother mindbend is one of the labels co-founders and has been designing its style and directions since the beginning. together, sinteg is a breeding ground of propulsive dance music punctured with tiny shards of detroit funk and chicago soul, but with the brittle dryness of techno substituting in for the deepness of house.
comes on transparent dark green / smokey marbled vinyl.

it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from the chicago house scene: mr k alexi shelby ! at the age of 12 he was already moving in the right circles, befriending frankie knuckles and ron hardy whilst frequenting the famous warehouse. his upbringing in chicago in the 70s and 80s meant that he was exposed to a range of genres and different styles of music including stevie wonder, prince, curtis mayfield and david huff. these same names would prove to be the roots of his influences. for his first collaboration with syncrophone, k alexi delivers a sublime set of new unreleased tracks + a new edit of his classical my medusa previously released in 1989, here called my sweet mf. year 2011, mr k alexi shelby is definitely back for a future classix

off we go and leave the cannibals all empty. the skies are lowering into the sea. gently pushed by stones we wonder/wander on. somewhere behind a rainbow, apartment houses quietly suspire their berlin. the cheeky spirit is pinching the nose with zest. watch them trip and do the mashed morale. we dance with them, but not for long. spirits are holding the upper hand again. still we miss a beat with a heart still strong. noisy colors all blending in one blue. i sit with you where the citys down low. we know no wrong in the sound of a song. down tumble waters rise behind our backs. the pointy poets heads hat breaks in two unlike the jesters scepter whos mad with magics saving factor. we wander on, stroll to and fro things weigh us out, no con, no pro, unlike the jesters saving factor we stick around too long a-go. down tumble waters rise behind our backs. the meek musicians heads hat breaks in two unlike the jesters scepter whose magics not an urban factor. strike up the band, play on and on for sweet sage music always wins just like the jesters magic scepter beats up and down, forgives all sins. this is when you come stepping in. a row of tender houses smash your knees. the skies are lowering some more. existences twitching here and there. rain reflects berlins icy glow: a frisking spirit on the tip of your nose. we dance with him for quite some time. no stopping a hand that holds up in a work. no missing a beat for a heart goes on. flamboyant whispers strike a chord back home. you come to me, im not alone, in the sound of a song we know no wrong

very welcome reissue of the original sire records release of dinosaur s kiss me again from 1978. written and produced by disco legends arthur russell and nicky siano and weighing in at a heavy 13 minutes long, this is a truly hypnotic disco odyssey which takes you on a curling and tension-filled journey through funky piano riffs, signature scratchy guitar work by talking heads supremo david byrne, tumbling drums, stabbing horns and of course mr russell s swirling atmospheric cello solos. all this is held together by myriam valles beautiful yearning vocal performance until the crazy mind-blowing orgasmic final minutes where david byrne goes wild and the whole thing explodes in pure dancefloor meltdown. choose from the a-side jimmy simpson mix or dinosaur s own more stripped down, chaotic but equally compelling mix on the flip. huge in new york especially at nicky sianos own gallery nightclub, later championed by frankie knuckles in chicago and more recently chosen by twitch as the perfect record to end the very last optimo espacio, this is a true disco classic and absolutely essential in any discerning record collection.

ultraschall is an homage to the first big techno club in munich. the owners of harry klein were part of the old ultraschall, which has a unique legendary status nowa¬days. the older generation in particular often long for the good old days. yes those times shouldnt be forgotten, especially not in terms of sound, but its also important to move on and attempt new things. like supporting vinyl, going to a who¬lefood shop or ending war. ok that might sound like a bro¬ken record, but how about spending less time on facebook and actually with your friends, cooking for your parents or organizing a break dance battle in your backyard? daniel takes us on a journey through the past and back to the future again. a charming mixture of laid-back grooves combined with some rough n ready rave moments make this a rapturous trip, no matter what time it is. track names are a really interesting element of music. some artists dont care about them at all and call their tracks a1 or something non-descript. yet many titles can be really funny, others made up words, and some corre¬spond to current events or times. some just really fit the sound. if you lose something, in general its a pretty nasty and unsettling feeling. but you have to deal with bad luck when it strikes. losing something can teach you an im¬portant lesson, or simply show you what it means to be unfortunate and down. not knowing the lows as well as the highs wont allow you to evaluate life very well. most important is to really feel and be yourself, despite the ups and downs.

but that is not all, you get more bang for your buck. the record continues on with a modern track reminiscent of >hot on the heels of love<, and the heavy kicked aquatic space styled >transponder<. and that is just the a side. the b side is big room convextion/basic channel style techno and a gentle come down ambient track. fresh, classic sounding techno from france.
