coeter one shows two tracks in perfect style of the label. nutempo vinyl records means high-quality of minimal techno. sounds clean, modern and dark. repetitiveness that joins cadenced rhythms, perfect for the dancefloor. never boring and always something unexpected. the remix of >dreesch< signed by veteran mike wall (der hut, aspekt, eins plus, etc.) is decidedly more techno, sounds coming from deep, riffs that seem to remember an old school .. but fresh and strong. the version of >lankow< signed dubit (eminor) is essential and deliberately directed to the dancefloor in the darkest moments.

four modern techno tracks on this first release of an ann aimee compliation series. the first of 4x4 vinyl releases from the ann aimee compilation, inertia, this opening volume includes cuts from time to express chief peter van hoesen and fachwerks roman lindau as well as fellow label recruits delta funktionen and sawlin. all four new and exclusive tracks deal in techno urgency. delta funktionen goes deep and dramatic, peter van hoesen offers up his usual dub-wise textures, whilst lindau pairs icy hi-hats with a heavy stomping beat. sawlin offers the trippiest techno with his delightfully dishevelled >excipidial< and closes out what is an essential piece of vinyl.

after their superb release last year with >dinosaurs<, that came backed with two heavy paul woolford mixes, south german stars alex flatner & lopazz return to poker flat with three new essential cuts. >this< may sound like a curious title, yet the addictive low-slung, electronic funk within will have you chanting >i just wanna love you baby…< in no time! smooth, slinky production comes hand in hand with producers as experienced as this pair! the mysterious future-disco-funk magic of >hapbee< keeps the party stomping as a whole host of vintage gear flavours this cosmic beatdown. rolling and driving forward with relaxed, summery intent it is a seriously positive tune for those smiling, warm feeling moments. >its< offers a similarly challenging title but musically there is no messing around, with a shaking, simmering slice of modern funk characterised by tonal synth play, percussive splashes and echoed vocal madness - all dripping with funk!

there are still around, real environmentalists for whom the term preservation means more than just a trend. paul-david rollmann alias even-tuell belongs with his artistic productions (among other things, one of the creators of the enthusiast label workshop) to the class of those who answer the call for effective art, design and indulgence. the maxim is always the free will, emancipated from szperfluous market mechanics and the falsehoods of the zeitgeist. for musik krause, his activity is recorded on 2 releases. a split with metaboman and a formidable remix for ian simmonds adorn the catalog. with his quasi-first complete musik krause ep he shows a raw and coarse club music sound without losing even a breath of the aesthetic and compelled movement. all three pieces sound as if they were crafted from centuries old tools, in the way that his music is filtered through the machines humanizedm discharged in a kind of essential honesty.

after successful releases on imprints like 8bit and brise, colognes own dualton & wollion team up again to deliver a banging, new york-house influenced 2-track ep on yellow tail. >the gap< and >the ledge< are packed with warm housegrooves, deep basslines and energetic strings. the skaters amongst you should know, where the tracks got their names from. on the remix-boards we got greek wonderboy alex celler (cecille). he gives >the gap< a more percussive twist, which makes his remix essential for every tech-house dj in the game.

second part from the finest scene of the moment! classic!

the sixth release on the excellent parisian imprint my love is underground comes from inner sense - aka french producer henri fontaine - who serves up only his second ever solo release (his first was back in 2006!) sprawled across the a-side you will find >lowdown<, a jam that brings to mind the output of new york house dons masters at work (indeed look closely at the centre of this record and you will see the totally appropriate inscribing >1993 forever<). swirling chords combine with a thumping kick, stuttering keys and, of course, a killer vocal wail for a slice of what can only be described as proper house music. >wanna dub with u< opens proceedings on the flip with the kind of thumping bass drum and funk-infused skipping hats that would make it a snug fit in the kerri chandler back catalogue and, again, the vocals are absolutely gorgeous. finally, >rawllin< wraps up the ep on a more stripped back yet equally groovy tip. limited to 500 copies on rather fetching 180g orange vinyl - essential.

astroblack is a prime time techno / techhouse monster , flipside more for the house business .... no need to present tony lionni (aesthetic audio, mule, freerange, ostgut, mad house...) one of the best artists of these past years, able to flirt as easily with house as with techno. modelisme is very proud to release >astroblack ep<, proper underground ep in a typical detroit vein. astroblack on a side, is a pure black soul funky detroitish techno music, powerfull chords on powerfull groove, swinging drums patterns, where the essential duty is to shake the dancefloor. b side, proposes >i can show you<, very class beatdown track, could be related to some theo parrish imprints. sweet & tuff for a so sexy tune! >oceano<, is a subtle kick reduced floating & atmospherical tune, which shows his intellectual side of his music. thank you sir!
