incl. kollektiv turmstrasse mix, after a while of absence johnjon returns with his 2nd solo release. johnjon started his musical career in electronic music working together with experienced producers in the studio, but in the end it was never satisfying for him. so he decided to lock himself up in the studio and dont come out till everything is right. he just got out of there and delivers the this stunning track. meanwhile is hypnotic and moving, groovy and a little trancy but definitely emotional. the breathing pad cuts through and the small but define changes make everything fit together. a perfect combination of a catchy theme and a solid groove. the remix is delivered by kollektiv turmstrasse, already known from successful releases on labels such as connaisseur rec, diynamic, ostwind and musik gewinnt freunde. christian and nico (kt) took the pad and squeezed out a groovy houseline, fit it into their beats and added a little bit of funk outcome is a wicked release. it is released on the label >baalsaal<, the new sophisticated label, the public transport of emotions

6 classic tracks in fresh 2008 edits

the beginning of year three in the adjunct chronicles is marked by a 12inch by our own apendics.shuffle. kenneth james gibson has been bombarding the techno scene consistently for the past few years. u_derline, orac, friends of tomorrow, mos ferry, sunset diskos among other labels have served as the carrier for kens deadly weapons. remix duties are taken on by the one and only mathias schaffhäuser , a renowned techno superstar and the founder of ware records. there couldnt have been a better title than >no reduction< to literary describe this monster of a track - ken has unleashed the entire arsenal of his studio for the creation. stern synth patterns pizzicato their way through the track, deep sea signals ring in the background, distorted vocal snippets insist on taking >all the money<. energetic and magnetic dancefloor number dedicated to the real freaks. mathias approaches the rework with smooth drumming and a velvet bassline. the cheeky cabaret vibe however never settles: the diabolical pizzicato of the original returns and the voices continue their demands for (what all adds up to in the end) >no reduction<. oblivious filth brings yet another layer to this joint. beautifully crafted sounds mingle with electro-mechanical noises, layers of melting textures lure the listener into a late night wonderland

gavin herlihy has long been one of dance musics most respected journalists and djs, and with two acclaimed releases on mood music last year and more recently a brace of top-drawer remixes for unkle and alexkid, hes fast becoming one of its hottest producers. freshly relocated to berlin, his debut 12inch for kindisch, >opium haze<, confirms his status as a skilled and innovative player on the house and techno scene. >opium haze< is as heady and intoxicating as its title implies, an effortlessly psychedelic piece of music thats nonetheless firmly rooted on the dancefloor. it begins with a clicky, funked-up conga tattoo cloaked in disorienting effects which partly obscure the jazzy melody rising up from the mixs depths. out of that sticky, dubby fug emerges an insistent, upward-tripping piano line and synthesized string stabs - together forming the kind of rave-ready hook that will cause immediate damage in the club. herlihy is superbly heavy on the edit, using an eastern woodwind sample, disembodied voices and various percussive elements to deliver build after build, drop after explosive drop. >opium haze< is a hugely satisfying piece of music, and a club anthem-in-waiting. >professional exit< is a more stripped-down but no less accomplished affair, driven by a warm, rippling bassline and phased electronics. before the percussion intesifies and interlocks, offsetting a sparse one-note synth line which hangs in the air, thickening it with understated drama. at once seductive and unsettling, experimental and club-oriented, >professional exit< is indeed a professional end to a highly professional 12inch

mothership transmission #4… todd bodine has been one of our favourite producers for a long time so we are very excited to be able to bring to you this ep on mothership. todd always brings a swinging groove that works for both minimal and house djs and this release definitely delivers the doughnuts. side a, >secret edge< will turn any stale room fresh and get everyones toes tapping and asses wiggling. its got elements of detroit, chicago, and berlin all wound up into a really nice party starter. you can never underestimate a fun grooving track thats easy to mix and fun to dance to. side b, >back to back< is a submariners dream with bubbling water sounds floating and popping over a low funk groove. this is the track for when you want to take it down a notch without losing any dance-floor magic. its a real dreamy affair with a fat bottom end. thanks todd!

ltd upfront promos , boddhi satva and abel tabu have fused their interpretation of african music by returning to their roots, providing us with one of the most interesting projects this year on atal music. they asked the talented congolese guitarist, danny mpiana, to bless their production with a true central african musical feeling ensuring they capture and soothe both heart and soul of dancers and listeners worldwide. the name boddhi satva has become for the most part, synonymous with deep, afro ancestral beats, melodies and rhythms. all these elements and more are present in his past productions, so its only fitting that he capitalize on this trend and join forces with his friend abel tabu to bring forth the best of both musical backgrounds. the end result is moina ya mokili, a formidable collaboration that confirms their true love and passion for deep soulful music. furthermore, this project is endorsed and enriched with support from abicah soul. his remix incorporates scintillating afro latin smooth, yet powerful beats and the signature abicah soul touch of deepness.

played by todd terje, tim sweeny, mungolian jet set, bill brewster, dj cosmo and more. on this release they don’t seem to hide their combined love for soundtrack and trip hop at all! the heavy sonic landscape that is painted then suddenly gets some strokes of warm synthetic keys while a mid tempo 4/4 bass drum hypnotically keeps you going towards the end. finally you kindly get administered a dose of druggy guitar for maximum distortion effect.on the flip norwegian top-flight psychonauts mungolian jet set show their genius by telling a totally different story. for their dark & gloomy medievel knievel version the main theme from bs&f gets many variations and transpositions.this is a genuine and highly intelligent epic dance floor masterpiece not for the faint-hearted!

step forward dubfire (aka ali shirazinia from grammy winning dj and production duo deep dish) whos already hit top form this summer with some tasty releases on desolat, funkwelle.net and whose thumping >emissions< features on the minus compilation >expansion contraction<. the beauty of this rework is that it doesnt stray far from the original vibe. dubfire pays the track the full respect it deserves, adding contemporary beats, bass and hat patterns, subliminal efx and tweaks that perfectly compliment the eq sweeps and machine gun snare rolls of the original. panikattack (originally released on plus 8 in 1996 as the b side to sickness) gets a more radical overhaul with guido schneider turning in a typically pragmatic version. by excavating and enhancing the gritty funk that lies buried under the feverish textures of the original, he discovers a totally new dimension. combining the plastik elements with his own trademark swing and razor sharp percussion programming, schneider coaxes the track out of the shadows for some serious peak time action as the bassline bounds forward relentlessly occasionally enveloped by stuttering delays, to negotiate its way through the dubbed out breakdown and on to the end

multi talented parisian producer dj fudge comes with a killer 3 tracker for the newly re launched sub urban records, showcasing the diverse styles of his endless production skills. first up is the disco infused liv & love featuring the classic sound of vocalist mani hoffman (a longtime collaborator with fudge) who is most famous as the voice behind the hit record starlight by supermen lovers, then we shift to the other end of the spectrum of fudges flavaz midnight sun is a deep dark journey that wont fail to rock the global dancefloors, last but not least comes grysor a beat heavy journey laced with a twisted synth bass line for those who like their house dirty...

bulgarias hottest new producer with a storming synth influenced techno debut and remixes by ignition technician and pedro delgardo

this is a debut release of kaoru inoue aka chari chari for mule. he is a one of the most popular japanese house music dj & producer since end of 90s. maybe people still remember that he has joined to the compilation of bossa tres jazz. recently, he is pushing & producing to his roots music like a progressive rock, balearic sound under his own name & aurora (the project with guitarist dsk). these his original two tracks of a side will be reminded the sound of can, holger czukay, klaus schulze, manuel gottsching etc and this releases highlight of todd terje remix is a dreamy long barealic tune!!

dj support: 2000 and one, karotte, tobi neumann, onur Özer, matthias tanzmann, ali schwarz from tiefscwarz... the four tracks on >Études Électroniques< find luciano invigorated and inspired, putting his talents into the service of dancefloors at their most delirious. with its delicate skip and its slow sunrise flare, >montana< opens the record on a blissful note, calm and suffused with light. a hollow bass tone puffs away like a glassblower as brittle rhythmic patterns spin round and round. swelling and drifting, weightless and iridescent, it feels like chasing dawn in a hot-air balloon. >fochedrem< eases off the throttle and cracks an ear-to-ear grin. a stubby one-note bass line beats out a kind of cartoon funk as the answering riff splinters and shapeshifts between cowbell, organ and piano. its as slippery as the deck of a storm-tossed boat. >masalla< features liquid congas and feathered metallic details that stand on end like magnetic shavings. laid-back and polyrhythmic, its a future latin maysterpiece

support comes from tiga, jedi knight tom middleton, dj naughty, warren fellow, makossa & megablast. the track >disconnected< is a groovy house workout that is typical of mr van moll. it starts with an excellent rhythm track that hooks you in straight away and then drops a deep, rich bass reminiscent of some of the classic house records from eindhoven produced in the mid 90s. this is quickly followed up with a breathy, seductive female vocal that leads you into the synth parts that propel you throughout the rest of the track until the 303 drops at the end. on the flip the track is reworked into a much darker affair with the 303 playing a central role from the beginning. >disco necked it< builds slowly with dubby synths gradually joining the 303 and throbbing bass before a filtered string part straight outta detroit creeps in creating a late night thriller thats sure to have sweaty bodies grooving!

highly acclaimed with his first ep >un/mute< minz strikes back with 3 massive tracks to dance on to till the end of time. on the a-side, darkslide, with his huge rollin bassline and the clever housy breakbeat is like a road roller crushing everything on his way! chaton from plak records as offerd us one of the most crazy and burning remix ever on perspectiv. his reisit of the previous ep smashing track >chinese drip< is unbelievable. massive rhythms long walk to the top, catchy loops. exactly what you need to explode all the shy audience! this remix his taken from our forthcoming compilation >family tree<! on the b side, a masterpiece from our family tree compilation: the man with the kite. this is an odyssey about love, wind, friendship, unbelievable melodies, flyin beats and perfect edit

ny/nj house producer jihad muhammad, whos previously had releases on west end records, easy street and iwanai out of canada, bestows us with a very special 3 song instrumental ep, 2 of which can be found on this october 2007 sampler. the piano mix of ascension is a gorgeous 124.5 bpm affair with plenty of plucky strings, a deep but not heavy balearic kick & bass drum, bouncy bassline, intermittent synth, & distinctive jazzy piano riffs that ll get the head nodding and hips swaying. expansions is another lovely instrumental but with more of an afro cuban percussive production whle keeping all of the dreamy piano chords and riffs intact and alive. feel the flow and head for the dancefloor…

a little less than two and a half years after its conception—and close to 30 singles, one compilation, one mix cd and one sublabel later—berlins mobilee releases its first artist album. naturally, who better to represent the milestone than pan-pot, who so far have delivered five essential singles to mobilee, helping to anchor the ever-shifting sound of one of europes most exciting labels. in just two short years, with 10 singles (for mobilee and einmaleins musik) and lots of remixes, theyve become known far and wide for their distinctive, groovy, and above all ominous sound. pan-o-rama finds the boys stretching that sound in every possible direction: twisting, tearing, and using the shreds to drag a wide swath of techno history into the future (and, just maybe, to drag a few pieces of techno future back into the past). call it minimal if you must, but this aint no clickity-clack shit. you can hear the agonized gurgle of isolationist acid, reminiscent of plastikmans darkest nights. you can hear the percolating urgency of classic bleep techno. tried and true hardware collides with restless digital experimentation as dance musics dna worms its way into twisted new shapes. pan-o-rama is dark, thats for damned sure. eerie vocals that seem to come from within the listeners own head creep across the stereo field. throughout, restrained minor-key melodies conjure 21st century noir, and a relentless low-end rumble seems to suck up all the light around it

chunky beats, deep chords and a big phat e-bassline make this one one to end your sets with! made by italian producer massimo santucci! incl spoken vocals: i like the way that you... !

palette is proud to debut its newest artist, dave hughes. the irish born, la-resident sound engineer finally let palette in on his music making secrets. the result is daves debut ep >lets do it<. a three tracker showcasing what is to come from this visionary artist. >lets do it< kicks the ep off with a strong rhythmic solid base which alone would be enough to solidify it as a stand out track, but without delay the song quickly develops into a musical journey with rhythmic chords at the end providing the icing on the cake. the flip side provides two more tracks of the same calibre, >it all deepends< and >realization< showcase great sound design skills and a message about our own humanity. take in to account the heavy subs and intricate drum programming and you have what we feel to be a classic palette recordings single

alfred azzetto is back on purple music with the feel good massive anthem colors, which was one of the most played promo cuts at this year winter music conference. interestingly djs all the time played an acapella over it but also the instrumental melody sounds great. part one includes the walterino main mix is a fierce production featuring classic strings and wicked keys that give the track a modern disco sound, while the piano mix is on a deeper edge, with a great piano hook added (that is reminiscent of bas noir my love is magic). part two includes a full vocal mix & the remixes from dj fopp & christian hornbostel, which will be out end of october. it was worth to wait some months for the release of this tune!

asylum seeker + padded cell rmx blackpool refugee, cycling fiend and house music-machine magik johnson joins curfew for obviously his finest piece of music ever. imagine dj sneak, switch and jesper dahlback all kept hostage in a small room under orders to make something really good or be shot. filtered electro riffs build the pressure over a huge rumbling bass-end, then it drops into a techy hook that sounds like richie hawtin remixing a john carpenter soundtrack. paranoid and minimal as you like - and then back to the earth shattering beats & bass..

firm fave of: ewan pearson, agoria,fabrice lig, ali schwarz, shinedoe, ben watt, jimpster, umek, bodzin !!! pele is back, this time in cooperation with shokh aka dave shokh, dipolder label owner and kiddaz.fm ambassador. peles last release >childhoods end< is one of connaisseur most successful releases so far in 2007, with plenty of licensings for many important summer compilations. thumbs was already released as a limited 250 copies white label release in february this year. finally this great rumbling techno track found its way to connaisseur, to be presented to a bigger audience. >thumbs< is a squeaky, twittery and kickin minimal techno track packed with a bunch of little astonishing moments. already featured on patrick chardronnets grand cru mix, this is more than a perfect mixing tool: a stripped down minimal hymn, no redundant emotions, strictly rhythm a quality ass-shaker! simon baker leeds-based shooting star of 2007. after his amazing releases on playhouse, connaisseur, viva and his own imprint infant, he drops this massively bouncing techno monster of a remix. kind of chicagoesque, kind of daft and massively pushing pure peaktime madness!
