chrunchy minimal tech including exercise one remix !! re-release

exercise one und franklin de costa besorgen die remixe für den grummich hit vom letzten jahr. während de costa vertrackt & grummelig vorgeht baut exercise one ein fraglies gebilde auf dass dich auf eine schöne lange reise schickt

dj support : ricardo villalobos, luciano, miss kittin etc... massive minimal club track called >lumberjacking< !! this one will blow dancefloors worldwide. incl exercise one remix (mobilee)

return of the cocoon-proof techno don! some phat business from jaceks underwater lab - yet another exercise in his very own concept of combining minimal groove with maximal sound spectrum. and it works: solid mid-tempo rhythm carries what seems to be a thousand of layers of sound. meaty, bouncing bass stabs intertwine with washes of synthetic melodies, while percussion drops and unidentified samples swirl around in this bio-robotic monster of a tune. >green river< takes jaceks minimal obsession into cold outer space, where you can hear the planets spin and the only hope seems to be coming from a dying communication device... cold, stark and haunting, this is either work of a madman or truly the future now

reissue of these old school nu wave hiphop classics from the late 70s/early 80s - limited indees ! tracklisting: i need a freak (not only used by the black eyed peas)

touane, known from persona & trenton comes here with very cool groovin and spacin trax on the exercise one label

incl jimpster & excersise one rmxs !!

played by james mowbray, jeff samuel, john tejada!! news from the anti claves-biter fraction: sub static-label boss falko brocksieper follows suit and warms up for the next album-quantum-leap, however, as a finger exercise first, there is this small, fine ep with three elegantly knitted smashers for the dj from world. as usual this man simply shakes the funk out of the sleeves, so he can afford to pass big music already for the aperitif, which is always best for the meal, right? >esque< builds up the break culture quite high, without falling however, as the pleasantly massaging bass foundation stands firmly against wind and tide. this is the club counterpart to the lightning rod, bundling the crowd s attention perfectly and focusing it to one point, between a glass of vodka (located at the dj-booth) and the horizon (in the head, man, in the head!)

software records goes half dozen, with a spectacular release. mouse down and daryl, residents at the infamous barcelonas club the loft, join forces to bring us this delicious slice of vinyl. original mix is a relaxed microtrance exercise, melodic, with a everchanging structrure and really clean, software trademark sound. in the remixes, daryl shows his splitted personality, in deep mix he goes electro house >a la get phisycal< while in tube mix he goes wild and noisy, creating with no doubt one of the anthems of this winter. key players, ellen alien, james holden, steve rachmad, undo, jaumetic, laurent garnier. a deluxe release with everything you need !!

peter van hoesen creates his technoid tracks from a refreshingly different angle and immediatly struck a nerve at the lan muzic crew. this very skilled producer grabs a dark and pleasent atmosphere to create his songs with striking sounds and shifting arrangements that grow on you with every listen. on top the ep delivers a remix of the in-house top jocks exercise one that prove once again how to nail a track without cracking the surface

feines ding was justin maxwell & exercise one hier gedreht haben. beide auf ihre art & weise, für liebhaber des guten geschmacks!

well deserving of the title 'symphony electrique', the song starts off subtle with a thick 'tick tock' time keeping rhythm and moody science fiction sequence which could have been a lost soundtrack session for the x-files. the broad and melodic themes here are soaring and strong, the painstaking drum programming is intricate with its deceptively 'live' sounding traps. an engaging electronic exercise that spreads out extensively like a warm blanket on a chilly night, and yet offers enough meat on the bone to urge a bump or two in sound systems and home listening headphones alike

brill minimal spheric tech burner !!

chris carrier and dj wild aka catwash add to crack & speed the second vital attribute of youth rebellion trinity - sex - and swap rock n roll for heavy funkin tech-house ( nevertheless rockin though ): on come to me dj wild looms large his sugar daddy impression spurting out some real sleazy perverted lyrics over a perfectly paced romp-shaking beat and a fat penetrating bassline that gives birth to a drilling acidline escalating slowly to climax in classic wild pitch style. the flip seems to be dedicated to a less frivolous physical exercise...

die ultimative werkschau aus knapp 30 jahren des belgischen synthpop-trios telex. darauf zu finden sind die hits moskow diskow und euro vision, genau wie das bisher unveršffentlichte synthpop cover des beatles-klassikers dear prudence.

nach bescheidenen, ersten acid-house-sets in der legendŠren hacienda bis zu dj-residenzen in weltberŸhmten superclubs, nach einer umfangreichen diskografie mit studioalben, mixsamplern und remixes (darunter fŸr madonna und the chemical brothers), nach grammy-nominierung, eigenem studio in new york und eigenem label (last night on earth), kršnt der britische dj/produzent sasha seine karriere nun (vorlŠufig) mit einer fabric-ausgabe. mit klassikern von carl craig, mathew johnson und exercise one und jŸngeren juwelen von dj koze, dj hell und objekt beweist sasha einmal mehr seine fŠhigkeiten, broken beats und ambient-trips komfortabel neben dub-techno und euphorischem house zu platzieren.

der londoner dubstep-pionier und hotflush-labelbetreiber scuba aka paul rose beweist seine einzigartigkeit mit einem 75-minŸtigen fabric-set aus 42(!) Ÿber- und nacheinander gelegten tracks. unterschiedliche kŸnstler wie pearson sound und patrick cowley, donato dozzy und midland treffen in einer dŸster-verfŸhrerischen atmosphŠre aufeinander, so dass man sich zwischen pumpendem lo-fi techno und subsonischen bŠssen im rave-kosmos verliert.

die 26-jŠhrige britisch-japanische kŸnstlerin maya jane coles setzt einen weiteren meilenstein in ihrer noch jungen laufbahn. von den fachmedien - von resident advisor Ÿber mixmag bis zur ehrwŸrdigen bbc - mehrfach ausgezeichnet, gipfelte ihre aktuelle anerkennung mit einem herausragenden platz 15 der top 25 einflussreichsten djs der welt, die der us-rolling stone ende 2012 herausgab. charakteristisch fŸr maya jane coles ist ihr meditativ-antreibender techno/house-stil, der nach einer ersten -dj-kicks--compilation 2012 und ihrem debŸtalbum -comfort- 2013 nun auf der neuen fabric-ausgabe zum vorschein kommt. geprŠgt von melodischen qualitŠten und einer enormen effektivitŠt, erleben wir hier eine weitere ausgezeichnete dj-perfomance einer echten ausnahmekŸnstlerin.

the yearly summit of keiji haino, jim o rourke and oren ambarchi continues with imikuzushi, which finds the group extending the power-trio strategies of last years highly praised in a flash everything comes together as one there is no need for a subject (bt05) and bringing to them a newly sustained intensity. for this performance, haino limits himself to electric guitar and vocals, forming complex networks of slashing rhythm work, noise squall and chromatic shredding, moving at times to near-silent passages of howled vocals and isolated, hanging guitar strums. the tendency towards driving free-rock which surfaced on moments of the trios last release is cemented here, with o rourkes fuzzed-out, non-linear bass riffing moving the music into almost garage-rock areas, combining with ambarchis drums to form a bedrock of hypnotic, metronomic pounding which transforms itself effortlessly into passages of flowing free-time. like all of hainos best work, the trio transcends any rock genre exercise to enter a non-idiomatic zone of ritual intensity, creating a music formed purely out of instrumental and group-mind possibility. presented as four unedited excerpts salvaged from an epic show that lasted well over three hours, the sometimes raw nature of the recording only adds to its directness and harshly emotive quality. francis plagne, melbourne, nov, 2011 released as a 6 panel digipak cd and as a limited edition double lp in a lavish gatefold with printed inner sleeves. design by stephen o malley with high quality live shots by ujin matsuo and stunning images by tokyo based photographer and sound artist shunichiro okad

after his slo-mo disco debut, the >terror island< 12 inch, pizzico records founding father billy bogus returns to nang with an eagerly awaited full length, named >night movie<. as the name suggests, this is one for the night crawlers. >night movie< is an exercise in twilight disco propulsion, rich with fuzz, funk, world sounds and sci-fi tendencies

dj diamond is 24 year old karlis griffin from the west side of chicago. he has been producing music since the age of 13 and djing since 20, heading the -flight muzik- clique of footwork producers. you might recall his two tracks from our -bangs & works vol.1- footwork compilation of last year. in addition hes also released several mix cds in chicago, but this, his first international album showcases his unique style of footwork music. dj diamond is a unique producer with his own distinct style and an unusual ear for unexpected sonic and rhythmic combinations within the footwork template. often he thoroughly edits samples into tiny trance-inducing, techno-like stabs. combining this with a penchant for neon synths and loose, broken drums (that are often more effect-laden and freeform than those of of his peers) and you have a sound which has an intriguing, deeper, dreamlike feel. the breadth and quality of his production is clear when you listen to this album. take opener -rep yo clique-s woozy drawling synths and tribal tom patterns next to -speakerz n tonguez- with it-s snapping snares, minimal, repetitive voice samples and martial, detailed drum work. then a track like -torture rack- which is like grime in outer space: a minimal bassline and some samples from a computer game, while a bass kick stumbles at half time, swarms of percussive detail giving it drama. its a brilliant exercise in wonky tension. the extraordinary -decoded- comes across like a kind of amalgam of trance and prog rock bombast at 160bpm while -wreckageÕs- high pitch saw noise is like a strange metallic bird-call, over light cymbals, gabba-like kicks and metallic claps. -digimons- harmonic microedits could even be an snd track transported to chicago. finally the albums closer -i choose you- rolls out over a heavily edited and processed soul sample, its drums rolling off at odd angles to almost seasick effect.

this summer beni will continue to reign the dancefloor supreme with a new monster slab of black plastic, maximus featuring vocals from the mighty sam sparro. who put the fun in acid-funk you ask? the answer is: beni did. a low-slung exercise in dark and dirty arpeggiated sleaze, maximus marries a sparse bubble-groove that creeps up behind you and licks your ear with a very purple vocal performance by sparro to devastating effect. the resulting track is something akin to kiss-era prince and friends dirty dancing at a toga party while ancient rome burns down around them. on the flipside beni and nicky night time give maximus a night-time re-dub rubdown, taking the track away from the creepy funk freak and towards a straighter slammer jammer, favouring blatant dancefloor manipulation over the subtle and the sexy. also featured (and included on the next kitsune maison 7 installment) is fringe element, which encapsulates the feeling of surfing on a shooting star like never before, with beni sitting proudly at the controls. an electronic orchestra of descending basslines, vocoder snippets, bleeps and acid squeaks, fringe element caps off another compelling chapter in benis lifelong voyage through dance. after the cover of his first ep my love sees you made by geneviíve gauckler, his new 12 is illustrated by french artist andre.
