the final chapter of vonstrokes limited vinyl album remixes features some seriously low end.
remix #1 is one the favorites of the entire project. claude met brazils dj marky on an artist bus at a uk festival last summer and gave him the track >aundy<. he asked him to do a mix and marky and his friend s.p.y. turned in this amazing drum n bass version. numerous artists have been dropping it even in the middle of house sets! it really captures the drum n bass feeling of the original track taking it back to the genre which inspired it.
remix #2 is from our up and coming bristol based bass prodigy, julio bashmore. he takes on >california< the co-production by cvs and j phlip to another level, adding smooth low end bukem style bass drops and shimmery vox/pad programming to the already insane track. bashmore is one of the few new breed of uk producers who cross over all the way from house to dubstep.

this exquisite disco roughie, paying homage to that sleazy, backroom-disco sound of the boys town gang and skatt bros., is the latest addition to the history clock canon. and ill wager that this is going to be the post-summer smash of the undergrounds counter-cultural disco scene. >cruiser< is a simple, bass loop that grinds and growls like an early weatherall-style groove, beneath some of the most x-rated sociolinguistics that would make even a sailor blush! on the b-side, relaxer is a punchy, proto-house instrumental that sounds like something somewhere between the very early releases on trax and one of those obscure 12? killer dub versions from a mid-80s, uk pop tune

be prepared to be wowed, as crosstown rebels deliver a serious slice of hot new music from new talent russ yallop aka rusty james. >i cant wait< and >rock me< are two infectious cuts with massive appeal. combining the magnetism of disco with the raw energy of contemporary house music, russ yallop produces a fresh take on a trusted formula. a side >i cant wait< is unforgettable for its contagious bassline, flirtatious vocal cries, cosmological synths and perpetual breakdowns. with just as much appeal and even more originality, b side >rock me< leans on funk laden stabs chopped into sonic grooves and humming vocals, drawing towards a beautiful, driving climax that rocks like a mutha

meakusma delivers the 3rd and last part of their ruts series, featuring the deeper side of house and techno with tracks by immer.chic, vakula, even tuell, move d & benjamin brunn.

oliver schleenvoigt is one of the two parts of the monoroom duo, who should be well known by everybody. with his first solo ep on ostwind records, oliver shows what he is capable of and makes a wonderful debut with his kunstflug ep. a-side tracks >gerissene rolle< and >zwirbelturm< are 2 driving tech house bombs with a lot of feelings, small delicacies and the right nip in terms of groove. on the b-side, we will find david labeij and neurotronturning the tables, performing magic with 2 damn phat remixes. both of them, with their very own style, make for the track >zwirbelturm< be a fabulous joy and for the ep to become an even more smooth thing. dutch fluffy tech meets mecklenburg neutron techno. a big thank you to the remixers and of course to oli for this successful debut.

maarten van der vleuten iss an old school dutch techno producer known for releases on r&s, tz, djax, signum etc. nice to see him back on vinyl with >lost control<, which is an electro version of joy divisions >she s lost control<. and some other cool tracks he did in the last year. cool electronix with some techno influences... somehow even reminds of some aphex twin worx. limited to 300 handnumbered copies with a cover that is silkscreen printed, colour print on the inside and free download code.... nice package!

sub heavy exceptional left field house killer mini sampler - highly recommended!

remain 010 - shot on purpose ep has arrived in time to mark the third anniversary of the label. boss axel karakasis, on top form, signs the three magnificent tracks included which have already been favoured by many djs worldwide, including the likes of umek, blah, blah, blah.. on the main side, blue ringed is one powerful track that delivers techno in its true brilliance. both axel and remain deserve big kudos for this track, as it cleverly combines full frontal samples, slamming workout and cuts filled with breakbeat-like motifs, opening up the doors to fresh, unconventional music. shot on purpose features a composition of killer bassline, hissing hats and electro-swept analogue sounds that is well functional and delivers even to the most demanding audiences. with broken on the remain side insane rolling techno and a haunting whistle melody make up a classic theme and a winner recipe for any headliner. an absolute must-have and a guaranteed favourite! early support by : umek, the advent, cristian varela, a paul and more

leonel castillo is undoubtedly argentinas most gifted producer. while his releases remain extremely rare, his daily creations keep adding and adding onto the thousands of tracks he produced over the past 20 years. on this very special artist ep - leonel castillo, the great engineer, sets some intricate and complex rhythmics in motion, forging el salon de los espejos into a highly feverish hotbox of a record. get this right: no other man can develop such elaborate and throbbing patterns as he does. from his lucious grooves featured on sushitech, to the stripped aesthetics as heard on illian tape or even the dubby techno textures from his record last year on greener - needless to say, leonel covers a wide and complete musical range.

monsieur guillaume berroyer — the infamous ark — recently underwent a sort of sea change in both his artistic and personal life. anyone following his career with even a passing interest knows of his long resume (collabs with pepe bradock and cabanne, dolibox, mika weill, releases on brif, karat, circus company, perlon…) and has heard tales of the studio fire and the creative energy shift and all of the stories associated with his frenzied live performances and dj gigs. great stories are fun and build mystique, but as most heads know the music more than measures up to the legend. his recent >arkpocalypse now< full-length showed a matured craftsman that is not so much waxing introspective as he is distilling his signature sound into something manageable enough to truly adapt to all of his musical tastes.

even if u have been hiding underground for the last while, you will have heard this being played out, and on n- typs wheel & deal records rinse fm show.

dixie yure is the incarnation of contemporary oldschool house music from seville. after some digital only releases it is about time for some haptic experience. with the 10“ record „show me satisfaction“ on berlin-based label fenou his sound is rotating on turntables for the first time. monotonous minimalism ain’t dixie yures world. the sound tends more towards 2step and builds a homogeneous and pleasant mixture with classical house elements and vocal parts. you just cant deny yourself dancing the >chicken dance< and stepping like hell! thanks to the funky improvisations extending over the whole track you wont get bored even after listening to >show me< for the hundredth time. the a-side is just fun - in the club as well as on your couch. you wont miss the low-pitched vocals on the b-side either as they are typical for the spanish producer. >satisfaction< is a little more reduced than >show me< but is enhanced with jazz elements such as pianos and saxophones. it shows that wind instruments in electronic music dont have to be annoying tribal elements. in this example acoustic instruments do not just get mixed up with house music but merge to one groove – absolutely rocking tune!

we would like to dedicate this release to our colleague and good friend aaron-carl who passed away on the 30th of september 2010. during the whole process of creating and thinking this record with ivel, aaron has been supportive from day one. he was a great musician and an amazing human being. his loss has affected all of us. it is very sad to think that this will probably be his last remix to come out, thus making this record and his remix even more meaningful. out of all the words aaron could have chosen out of martin luther kings speech for this remix, he chose the phrase >i just want to do gods will<. i think that god, if theres one, has called him by his side way too early. life will continue, aaron-carl and his music will stay in our hearts

after several releases on mathematics as contra communem opinionem, cco presents his latest release on the promising new label lux rec. with his impressive ep the secret life of a transistor bassline cco proves us once again his ability to space out and rock hard at the same time. what more do you need? this journey starts off in the sewers of a miserable city on the western hemisphere and takes us higher until we freely float in space. as we move at the speed of light but with no perception of time, we eventually land on planet venus. this is where jack inserts his pleasure plug into the acid machine and sets off a dirty romp. in our quest for the secrets of life, we thereafter push boundaries further and explore even far away galaxies. always bearing in mind the infinity of time and space.

nice price deal !!! the latest release on sabina plamenovas opit label marks the next step in her creative path with two multi-faceted and intriguing tracks of her own, remixed by egyptrixx and ghosts on tape, producers who boast some of the most relevant and inventive ideas in contemporary bass-driven club music. still impossible to define, subeenas original tracks on the package are innovative even by her own standards, and for the first time plamenova combines her own voice with her sensitive, intelligent, and nuanced production, to powerful effect. support from untold, simbad, sinden, altered natives, appleblim, scratcha dva, modeselektor and more.

two true heroes of underground electronic music, alex flatner & lopazz step up the game with this brand new outing on poker flat. the original version of >dinosaurs< is a pacy, energetic jam with a super-solid bass foundation. tracky, urgent and of course wonderfully produced, it harks back to the trippy, percussive sound worlds of classic poker flat releases from the likes of guido schneider. paul woolford hands in his >mannheim< remix, which takes a freaky, percussive edge and steps up the energy even further in this amazing workout.

even the last ep >contemporary box< by christian burkhardt was an exceptional experience for every listener. now, after two years of abstinence on oslo, the gifted artist surprises us with his next album >redford.< on the a side christian burkhardt presents us with >scream< a funky track, in which mainly the vocals let shake the dance floor and draws the audience into his spell. >redford< on the b side stands out with its concise and groovy bass line and stands with its hypnotic sound. an experience for the upcoming club season!

orange it is. our second release has hit the shops and the first reactions are great. again we collected some very interesting tunes from all over the world. expect banging house music as well as some relaxed and groovy stuff for me and the ladies. this time we have four tracks instead of three and even though this fact calls for a campaign under the motto >get 33% more...< we still serve music and no cleaning agent.

we are once again, extremely proud to welcome two further additions into the upon you league of gentlemen! franco cazzola and titta ! cazzola runs the label carnival records in his home country, hes also currently releasing on material records and has even had his name appear on sven väths infamous cocoon compilation. his track >vita brevis< is his spicy offering for the upon you sweet & sour series and has two kicking remixes to boot. one is from our polish friend pol on and the second one comes from our very own dutch regular onno. the results are definitely hot dogging around the funky house island but with each artist showing us some pretty tricky manoeuvres too

any which way starts with a classic dancefloor siren before launching into an almighty beat that blends classic disco with the modern day.... carte blanche just even more progressive 2010 way

after a recent short n sweet stint on tensnakes mirau imprint irish ex-pat mano le tough reemerges on internasjonal where he first saw the light of the day as a producer with the much acclaimed warhorn. yet even with such a rather small, straightforward discography mano managed to sculpture his unmistakeably very own style fusing the deeper shades of house and techno with a strong melodic sensibility that one would never even get the faintest idea to file it under the mostly bland tech-house genre. oblique boast a perfect effective dramaturgy with slighty spooky broken melody box theme rising out of a thick mist of grinding chords before morphing into a deep acid finale. french gentlemen of distinction and many styles chateau flight toughen up the beats and throw in some african wood percussions and sparse psychedelic dub effects for a superb rhythmically multi-layered rework.

futurist techno that needs some time to listen to, but can also surprise you with sound sensations never heard before, even after playing the track a 100 times.

roma meets running back. final frontier/pigna/nature bossman, terrific producer, italian true school techno ledge and celebrated pasta boy marco passarani delivers new original material since his brilliant statostasi ep. the first one of a two part 12-inch series (no shit!) is walking in the shoes of the future while wearing the fine cut trousers of the past. here you you get it all, dear earthlings: science-fiction marathon tech-house, male martian mirror balls and sh-303 female robot acid. bassarani in your face! watch out for colliding stars pt. 2. limited to 500 copies in a retro-futuristic telescopic picture sleeve with even enough room to slip in the second platter (coming sooner or later to a theatre near you)!

gunnar stiller has always been known for producing dance floor >destroyers<, even if >far from okay< sounds a bit like a floor wax accident theres no need for the timid raver soul to get worried about slipping and falling. soft accords sedate the mind, the bass pumps in the adrenaline and a voice softly whispers that everything is going to be just fine…all you need to do is dance. when the janitor loko mops over the uy 038 floor with his remix you can even walk over it on the highest of high heels. it does in fact, get a bit rougher when the lights go out on >some kind of weird< and the smoke machine goes starts pumping. thats when its >black piste< time and thats no place for heidi klum or techno beginners…but who wants to be a model anyway, right?

beg to differ is a dance music duo comprised of house hero nick chacona and wurst label boss roy dank. the two longtime friends started tinkering around in the studio last year, remixing the likes of detachments for thisisnotanxit as well as nicks solo outing with kathy diamond for moodmusic, and quickly finding favor with fellow new yorkers james murphy and holy ghost!. influenced by talking heads, my bloody valentine, and paulsimpson, beg to differs work is characterized by big hooks, live instrumentation, and lush production. the duos wurst debut features two massive - and decidedly different - reworks. parisian afrobeat masters bibi tanga & the selenites get the full beg to differ overhaul on >be africa<, complete with infectious arpeggios, killer keys, and an entirely new rhythm section, with nick himself on bass duties. the pop rock of the hours >ali in the jungle< is transformed into an epic, string-laden anthem taking in disco, rock, and even trance by the end of the mix. heavy to say the very least.

the heat of summer into an urban canyons night of fresh air. in berlin. or manchester. maybe in budapest even. it is warm, but not that close and hot anymore. a soft wind blows through the leaves and ripples the surface of the small puddles the rain left on the streets. with relaxed enthusiasm a man walks up to his house where he will decant a well-tempered sangiovese while waiting for the woman with whom he will chat till dawn.
with three reworkings of one of their tracks from the full-length album >13<, the trio from manchester conjures such an atmosphere on their vinyl release on binemusic, inviting you to (day-)dream or relaxedly bob across the dancefloor. and maybe even bear the waiting time while stuck in traffic.

who wouldnt want to be kept by a beautiful rich woman? no matter how you look at it, its not the worst way to make a living. in 1982 the german new wave quartet ideal even wrote a song about it. >schoene frau mit geld< is thestory of a young man without any other drive or desire in life than to find such a woman and turn this state of utopia into reality. tough goal! twenty-eight years later, one of germanys finest and merited producers decided to do afresh interpretation of the song. sir losoul of playhouse fame presents two mixes (a dub for the faint of heart) that hone the hook and tag line of the original for maximum dance floor and repeated listening pleasure. and that, ladiesand gentlemen, is sometimes really the only thing you need in the world…

in fact, its not even supposed to have a release sheet like this one. but sometimes, you-re even too modest to stay away. so, whats it all about? well, the music, of course. and only the music. organic stuff, so to speak. tracks made by pure immersion. no plans, no blueprints. just going with the flow, unleashing the inner krautrock while staying true to the basics of techno. here is gabriels new 4-tracker. inhale.

detroit artist jason fine is back with a follow up to his critically acclaimed future thought album. the master of the introspective and personal techno sound gives us another killer release, once again transforming daily life experience into beautiful and moving deep techno and house. jason fine continues to play around with layered melodies and harmony mixed with raw and funky drum programming. the ep opens with the track orange, a beautiful monotone organ based techno track, revealing hard times. violet continues in the same vein. blue melodies play around over minor organ chords and heavy kick drum. on the inner tracks blue and red jason with confidence moves into the electro territory, still keeping emotion and atmosphere up front. even though the concept behind this ep is the full color spectrum, the mood is all over blue.

september signals a welcome return to the scene by two of d&b?s most respected characters, craggz & parallel, and it couldnt have come a moment too soon. since releasing their debut >northern soul< lp on valve back in 2006 the pair have stepped back, regrouped and are now ready to come full force with a brand new super-fresh sound that?s sure to raise heads throughout the scene. drawing on influences from electronic music past and present from early techno sounds, 80s synth-pop through to a myriad of contemporary dance music genres, craggz & parallel have created a truly unique and daring album sure to quench the most discerning and dance floor tastes whilst challenging the more traditional drum and bass album ideals. even reverting back to analogue production techniques to combine with the modern creates an experience unlike any other around today so keep you ears open for the genius new sounds of craggz & parallel.

eglo records reaches its tenth release, with another acid dripping banger courtesy of west londons funkineven aka stevie j. taking things a little harder than on his previous two records, heart pound jacks its way across the dancefloor, in a collision of chi-town and ldn beat based funk. another space comes even harder, drawing on a touch of early rave and hardcore, its twenty tenà it just went on a journey before it got here. funkineven has been busy of late, remixing for hyperdub recording artist ikonika, darling farah and practicing as part of the fatima live band, who made their debut appearance for deviation at fabric on wednesday, supporting bilal

the musique d hiver pour l ete is all about warm instrumentation with a special emphasis on an intentional lo-fi production. it might even be a statement in an age of digitalism and overproduction. it rides the line between romantic techno and sultry disco!

new chk chk chk longplayer ... quality stff as usual

for the first time weave music starts some remix excursion of 2 stunning tunee... original version is a state of the art techno track coming along in a reduced and pumping shape. its accompanied by an amazing secret cinemaremix on the flip that also doesnt fail to hit the target in any way. this 12inch is pure energy! finally all of us are seriously confident of having made the right decision, giving m0hs tunes the chance to reach even more electronic music heads this summer by releasing them on vinyl as well

in recent years lil silva has been responsible for some of the uks biggest underground bangers, with his uniquely stripped-back, heavyweight style blending jacking house with the raw sonic energy of 1st generation grime.
following up on his ltd white label release in april, night slugs are proud to present night skanker, lil silvas iconic new ep.
the four melodic, synth-laden tracks are typically raw and grimey but also run deeper with a newfound luminescence. constructed from a robotic new sound palette, silvas tuff flange-funk drum programming and twisted carnival rhythms are permeated by razor-sharp neon synths, jacking cowbells, massive slabs of sub bass and even silvas own sampled vocals. these are industrial-size riddims for worldwide dancefloor demolition!

echospace are proud to announce the third ep from the forthcoming cv313 album, >dimensional space<. this release marks the first remix from one of the uks most revered talents -- king midas sound (the bug) who manages to take the original in a direction one would never expect, creeping and trembling right at the very core of your very being. this is truly the midst of something beautiful, its haunting, infectious and has no restrictions to gravity, this is truly something to float in. next we have a heady subliminal interpretive from seattles, rafael anton irisarri as the sight below (ghostly) there is a reason why his sound has even turned the head of radiohead front man thom yorke and if i had to guess i would say its rafaels emotional range, he tugs right at the heart strings. this mix is as narcotic as you would expect, a slow motion dream where in every twist and turn a new detail unfolds, its like visiting an unexplored world -- subtle and hypnotic. on the b side (our first sound snippet) we have a more 4/4 number culled from deepchord presents: echospace (modern love) live set from this past year. this one has been tried and tested at countless shows and club floors around the world. its all about that syncopated bassline, a subterranean bottom and an atmosphere as deep as the ocean floor -- this is underwater space funk.

2010 repress !!! it seems that tevo comes out of nothing delivering some house tracks that are as hot as they can get! as a teenager tevo was brought up in chicago during the haydays of house music. and there is no doubt that this left a deep impression on him! this record is another stomper with 5 basic tracks that have that same magic as early house records from the 80s! his first release on bgr was already picked up by several hot international djs and this one might even be better! great great record!

cleo & patra are proud to sacrifice a 12inch to the egyptian queen and goddess of the nile. an ode to ancient egypt, youll hear it all. downtempo boogie magnitude and affection with pharaoh love, the full bloom disco-house adventure of marcus antonius on the run who should have better taken cleo & patras advise and finally the pyramid-high-killer-party-time a-side that even teaches the bangles a thing or two. oh, what a nose!

the third and final part of our coloured vinyl trilogy comes again as a limited edition and handnumbred. this time nick solÉ (mojuba) drops three classic us deep house flavoured tunes. on the a side the musical journey is called >earth< – steadily flowing and evolving and sometimes even getting lost in its melodies and harmonies while it keeps pushing forward with its hint of dub technoish spices. on the flip we have >beautiful day< which seems to be the perfect soundtrack for a long long sunny summer day or morning. imagine the sun rising above some trees on the horizon and this track played out loud after a long dark night. finally we have >you are my life< as a bonus track to finish of our trilogy! its dedicated to bring some colour, joy and friendliness into your life or set! this time the artwork has been done by cialex, who is the man behind the flyers of famous >golden pudel club< in hamburg and the groove release parties in horst krzbrg

don froths >10.000cc / holiday (dubbed out)< is phonica whites sophomore release and it couldnt be any more different to ioris stripped down dub techno. don froth initially appeared on our radar last year with >foam< û a laidback, dubby disco number that effortlessly got us all in summer mood, practically teleporting us to his native venice ca. forget about such nicetiesà >10.000cc s< is >foams< rowdy sibling. a twisted, bass-heavy stomper of a track, that takes disco, dub-step and punk-funk, spins them in blender and spits out one of the rudest basslines weÆve heard in a while. weare talking big here û even giles peterson is a fan. on the flip >holiday (dubbed out)< returns to more familiar territoryà laidback, dubby disco that instantly brings to mind >foam< without being a carbon copy. its breezy, summery and very organic in an analog sort of way. very limited vinyl pressing of 300 copies û hand stamped and numbered. special artwork by pedro carvalho de almeida

>twin< from wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: >a twin is one of two offspring produced in the same pregnancy.< we doubt there is a relation in bloodline between the two artists that come together in this release, but there is definitely a relation in sound even before one might have taken notice from the other. one from the empire, the other from a fallen socialist country, but both pretty much on a similar understanding for music. welcome the extraordinary robaphex!

oh ruin is eoin o ruinaigh, originally from dublin but now residing in london. having started out playing in a host of bands, at one point embarking on a tour supporting morrissey, he has now gone solo and is turning out such six-string gems as the two tracks collected on this single. a beguiling melange of untempered blues and campfire songs which draw on a rich irish folk tradition, eoins songs are intricately drawn sketches accompanied by deftly finger-picked melodies, even performed on guitars made by eoin himself.
vinyl edition of 500 in a matt varnished reverse board sleeve.

are you feeling energetic? actually, dont even bother answering. because after hearing robert dietz >soup opera< youll have stamina for days. its a charging, standup bass burner that puts house sounds to techno purposes, its a wolf in sheeps clothing, a rainstorm at the open-air-a monster, simply put, that leaves you drenched and grinning from ear to ear!
