gro§artiges neues signing auf compost! pitchben aus mŸnchen katapultiert den electro funk der 80er jahre ins hier und jetzt. the whispers, d-train oder zapp sind die einflŸsse des mŸnchner musikers und produzenten, der in den 90ern als teenager unter dem namen m-tech seine ersten gehversuche als dj machte. 2002 gewann er die deutschen dmc meisterschaft mit seiner gescratchten interpretation des break machine-hits street dance . mit seinem ersten album pitchslap nimmer der bayer ganz klar bezug auf seine electro funk-helden der 80er, doch geht es ihm eindeutig nicht darum, den sound der vergangenheit authentisch nachzubauen. pitchben ist ein kind der €re nach daft punk und ed banger - und das hšrt man diesen energiegeladenen tracks an. pitchslap ist kein album, das nur am computer entstanden ist. der mŸnchner hat sich neben diversen sŠngern eine blŠser-sektion ins studio geholt, und die streicher kommen ebenfalls nicht aus der konserve. und demnŠchst wird pitchben mit seiner band die bŸhnen der republik rocken.

wretch 32, real name jermaine scott, is one of the uks most loved mcs - from the underground up. from his early years in londons flourishing grime scene back in the early 00s, the tottenham-raised lyricist has always stood out from the crowd. his conscious and reflective bars, along with an extremely relaxed flow, made him a firm favourite on the uk hip hop circuit. much like tinie tempah, wretch 32 has proved that british mcs can reach the mainstream without selling their soul to pop. the first fruits of this crossover success were tasted in january 2011, when his single traktor broke into the domestic top five following an appearance on the bbc sound ofÉ list. and his second official single, unorthodox, fared even better, peaking at number two in april. so its clear that much has changed since his debut lp of 2008, wretchrospective - but has public recognition come at the expense of what marked wretch 32 out as such a talent in the first place? not at all - on the opening title-track, the rapper lets the listener know that its the same old wretch at work. over a drum-heavy hip hop beat he sets up the rest of the album well, advising everyone to fasten their seatbelts as he prepares to take them on a ride that they wont forget in a hurry. never be me finds wretch delving into his past, opening up about making certain decisions in life that got him to where he is today. featuring rnb newcomer angel on the hook, the track has an inspirational feel to it - all over another impressive, but this time more grime-influenced, beat. a true standout is anniversary, with alex mills on singing duties - its a love song, minus any cheese. then the album lurches into the electro-infused sanes the new mad - a glimpse into wretchs party lifestyle, with ladies and alcohol at the forefront of his attentions. and closer dont go just might be one of the tracks of the year.

everybody better bring some towels, because housemeister is about to soak the world in electro champagne. presenting his third full length music, the dirty don of club music did it again. touching ravers hearts and hitting ravers right on their heads at the same time. in arts, good ideas are hard to have, but easy to get - masterful musical output is pretty hard to create, but once itÕs done, itÕs about pure listening pleasure. and with a thousand shitty drugs flooding the streets of music today, it isnÕt everyday you get to consume the 100% stuff. Òmusic is awesomeÓ is that shit thatÕs straight from the kitchen, and housemeister has produced this bitch to the point like a 5 star chef. it seems playing clubs and crowds all over the world do add to a players game. add class and confidence. add experience and excellence, add balls as well as balance, and maybe it just takes 15 years of hardcore djdom to be able to come out and kill like this. music is awesome!

debut album from curv on vinyl vibes records ... after various successful 12inch releases on vinyl vibes, the label introduce their first artist album from curv. while in the past mixing organic and clubby elements, deeply rooted in soul and jazz, curv recently developed a stronger love for electronic music, splendidly reflected in this fantastic record. between here and nowhere is not just another electronic album as one might expect. it features a unique style of warm, analog sounding club music which makes perfect sense as a listening experience too. it would not be curv if jazz, funk and disco didnt feature, if he would not occationally mix the electronic beats with some natural sounding drums, the keyboards with some piano. but he is now putting all these things into an electronic context of house beats, naughty electro and even deep minimal. in between all of this you still find all those stunning little details that make his music curv-music in its very own & special way.

mark mcguire operates chiefly as guitarist in the legendary emeralds. however he also has racked up an impressive set of solo releases over the last few years (albeit mainly in small to micro print runs). living with yourself is his new album and we at editions mego hope to meet any demand which may arise from this fine selection of modern crafted guitar tunes. focusing on his family, early friendships and the problems that inevitably develop through years of knowing someone, it takes mcguires sound even further out, and contains some his most accomplished songs to date. the opening track is fine example of mcguires magic technique of taking a lone acoustic guitar then transforming the track into bliss-out electro wash looping off into the distance. and tracks like clouds rolling in and brain storm take off where such mcguire classics as the marfa lights (which incidentally is planned for a future reissue) left off. while connoisseurs of his sound will find all they desire in here, many superb surprises await around every corner. these are songs that cruise, bubble and rise to the top.

with 17 years industry experience, innumerable remixes, several hit singles and eight albums under his belt, dutch dj/producer ferry corsten knows how to knock up a tune. the bombastic title of his latest album, l.e.f. - loud, electronic, ferocious Ð seems overtly aimed at quieting any doomsday critics that are still flouncing around prophesying the death of dance music. the contents certainly state a passionate case for the genre-s ongoing vitality and ability to reinvent itself, as corsten lets loose a take-no-prisoners tirade of electro, trance, pop and techno. the visceral pulse of -are you ready- opens the onslaught, preparing the listener for retro anthems such as the recordÕs first single -fire- (featuring simon le bon), and -into the dark- (with howard jones), and a storming series of trademark trance cuts - -beautiful-, -posession- and a reworking of old favourite -galaxia-.

this is the debut home-listening album from one of the uks biggest techno djs. hes half of blindingly successful techno duo two armadillos but his main focus for the last two years has been the heavily publicised chapters project - five eps of mood music to trip-hop to techno that have now been totally ripped apart and turned into cinematic home listening for his debut cd. king roc history includes remixes of new order, future sound of london, s xpress. hes been a very big electro dj in the past who has recently focused on ubercool european and brazilian techno mixes - remix packages include people like alex kenji, same mastering guy as portishead - sounds incredible.

in cars we rust is their debut album, and it presents the most complete picture of exercise ones world to date. the dancefloor stormers are still there, and the records flow is guided by the same spirit of improvisation that drives their live sets. but the clubbier material is rounded out by sounds weve never heard from exercise one before: gorgeous, enveloping ambient tracks soundtrack-ready synthesizer ballads even a kind of retro-futurist electro-pop.

recorded over a two-year period with producer jeff saltzman (the killers, the sounds) the album has a depth and complexity rarely found in electronic pop albums. this is perhaps not surprising given itÕs gestation, deliberately designed to stretch their creativity the album was written in its entirety, titles first and in an intimate and very modest way - in a carriage house in brookyln rather than in expensive studios around the globe. stylistically the album is as diverse as it is cohesive. there are electro dance moves on the album but also the swirling electronic psychedelia of amuse bouche full of surprise flavours that enhance your perspective

exile began his musical career in 2000, releasing drum & bass on labels such as beta and moving shadow, but as the years progressed, his sound started to become more complicated and abstract. this was mostly due to his obsession with the reaktor software, which enabled him to spend much of his time creating new and interesting sounds from scratch. his debut full-length, 2006s pro agonist, saw him add elements of breakcore to his constantly mutating yper-breakbeats, but that gradual change in style is nothing compared to the total departure that hes taken on listening tree. long-term fans may be shocked to know that listening tree is peppered with exiles own vocal tracks, as he tackles issues such as britains buy-now-pay-later culture, and even the dynamic nature of the universe on family galaxy, the first single. >family galaxy< is about the constant process of change that underpins everything, explains exile. its a tale from a thingless world where nothing stays the same. as now shines its shifting shades on then, so our ideas of what we have done and will do continually morph.the result is an eccentric electro-pop album that is just as likely to appeal to fans of hot chip as it is otto von schirach

more trance, more love, more fun, more sex...you can get a hint at what is coming by checking out the two first singles the ballad of tom scraw remixed by the minimal goddess chloe and worst than love with remixes from losoul and gilbert and a juicy cover of iggy pops classic nightclubbing.in the meantime junesex is testing the new album live in france to great public acclaim many tried to sum it up: pop, minimal folk, electro funk, house, rock,acid love, chic sex, bodily fluids only one label fits: junessex!

ultraphat phunked up electro disco !!!

one of the most eagerly awaited debut albums of 2009, join the q meshes the high energy of drum n bass and rock with a wide ranging set of sounds that betray the fact that the mysterious trio were a band before they took to the decks. dancehall, metal, electro, grime and hip hop all make their presence known across the album thanks to a host of respected guest vocalists. its like ram raiding the best record shop in west london with your saxos ice turned up to drown out the alarm.

sexy electro house

trailing, distant voices, folk-leaning, yet wholly otherwise melodies, and a grounding in both electro-acoustic origins and a decidedly rooted sense of place characterize acre loss, a collaborative project which brings together musician mark templeton and filmmaker aaron munson to create 10 musical compositions accompanied by 10 short films. working together on all pieces of this project, the resulting blend of sonic orientation and cinematic warmth gives acre loss an unusual, yet familiar perspective into the impact of a fleeting sense of home
