>realtime art< - that s how blackisbeautiful call their electronic music art. an analogue idea within the digital age. inspired by the aesthetics of analogue music devices, the first album of the dortmund-based producer team will be released in september via the upcoming cologne-based techno label 200. blackisbeautiful partnered up at the vrstck club in dortmund two years ago. they bonded through their deep connection to analogue art. residency atvrstck and a musical and friendly collaboration were to follow. both look back at long-term musicianship and life experience. while tim dicke paved his way into the electronic scene through being a drummer, bassist and soloartist in punk and hardcore bands and later on as dj, Ümit han quickly moved from djing to producing his own tracks. in 2006, Ümit won the remix contest to gabriel anandas >glücksmelodie< and also released tracks on karmarouge, meerestief, harthouse and other labels. blackisbeautiful created two tracks in real handicraft with alerion and purpur: mesmerizing and enthralling at the same time! music that invites you to dance and yet puts you to rest for a closer listen. attention to detail and experiment-happiness get you addicted to blackisbeautiful: occasional street recordings of sounds in everyday life and sampling of snap-shots run through their dynamic sound images.

for release n° 28, long-time clr artist alex bau returns with two massive new tracks full of good ideas and positive energy. chris liebing had the pleasure to play out the disaster-mix for quite a while and to convince himself of the unexceptionally sensational crowd reaction. the rhythm is permanently varying, the atmosphere often changes immediately and the sounds come and go in surprising ways.
the flashback-mix is wonderfully thrifty and has a powerful bass. alex bau once more shows versatility and dedication to experiment with rhythmic and sonic possibilities. the slow building and the subtle use of beat variations and breaks underline the almost mesmerizing effect of this outstanding groove.
chris liebing considers the clr 28 the best alex bau release on clr so far and is already looking forward to your comments and critics.

after successfully bringing back the boogie with the launch of their own imprint, boogie corporation are now back again to prove that they really are slaves to the boogie with this their second release on bc. inspired by strange android dreams and angelic visions of russian air hostesses on electronically powered scooters, aeroflot is equal part space and equal part boogie. meanwhile on the flip, git down is a slab of raw basement boogie, an experiment in time travel and is well heavy on the funk. last up, but by no means a slacker, is dirty rips which pays homage to the machine funk of the early electro sound while giving it a serious contemporary tweak. this track was previously re edited by dj legend greg wilson and released as hardcore boogie on redux, but this is the first time the original version has been released on vinyl. are you a slave to the boogie?

dickie is no longer prepared to stand idly by watching the current team failing to live up to the high standard set by the great den haag team of 75, how he longs for the anthem that is fc den haag to be on every city radio station celebrating the feats of the current team. sadly though todayÆs team does not live up to dickieÆs expectations, so much so in fact that dickie brings us the anthem to try and induce self belief in the team, æfc den haag, we are the bestÆ, so upset is dickie that heÆs considering coming out of retirement and offering his services to the team. following the anthemic opener, morwyck blues resonates with the sadness that dickie feels on matters close to his heart, while the hague jam is the perfect track for driving from den haag to scheveningen (or anywhere) at 3am. full of his trade mark 808 beats, vocoded vocals and searing melodies, dickie has produced tracks suitable to be played loudly on the cassette player of every bmw as it cruises around the city streets at night, searching for young souls to be evangelised to the ways of the 808 beat.

this is techno in the spirit of the original detroit and european pioneers: machine funk that looks as much to parliament and james brown for inspiration as to richie hawtin, and which treats each track as a fresh experiment in dancefloor dynamics, not as reworking of an existing formula.

compared by adam beyer, truesoul is the ying to the yang of the techno tastemakers better known drumcode label. equally well respected, equally forward thinking, both labels are very much at the forefront of what is going on in electronic music. operating on a broad remit and refusing to be restricted by genre boundaries, truesoul offers an oasis for the great and good of techno where they can experiment with elements of electronica, downtempo, house and minimal. having hosted the work of cari lekebusch, joel mull, nihad tule, par grindvik, speedy j and beyer himself, the mantel is now passed to dustin zahn. best known for his ever reliable enemy records imprint, zahn is one of the most in-demand producer / djs on the techno circuit with his releases for the likes of drumcode, droid and audio assault staple choices for many

the promotional copy of the record is already in the case of ame, santiago salazar, dj buzz goree (underground resistance), ricardo villalobos, dj pete aka substance (scion versions), federico molinari, eddie fowkles, tyree cooper, dj mad max and stevie d.

kindisch is now eighteen releases old, and its mission - to uncover new talent, and to provide a platform for producers to evolve and experiment - is more passionate than ever. this time, the reins are handed to sascha braemer, aka hirtenfellner, and philip bader, who build on the promise of their releases on sup dub and get physical. >mamba drums< is, as its name suggests, a percussive, latin-tinged affair, with sweeping builds and heavy drops, layer upon layer of locomotive percussion and a skeletal four-note vamp designed to whip the listener into a state of frenzy (and sure to be successful in this aim!). a male vocal sample pervades on >thrill<, this time more gruff, more laconic, and edited so that the words become another percussive element rather than carriers of meaning. deep whirlpools of delay open up below a surface drift of jazz-tinged chords, from a minimalist sound palette bader and braemer paint a vastly evocative, effusive picture that will transport the listener, or dancefloor, to a strange and addictive place. >put your arms around me<, implores the soul-infused vocal sample on b >around<, over a yawning vista of synth chords bridged with sibiliant snares and subtle but earth-moving edits that leave no doubt as to braemer and baders mastery of dancefloor dynamics.

the quality that the inland knights have become known for over the past ten years shows no sign of letting up and they continue to experiment with new sounds and styles, which the >bad man< ep shows perfectly!

first single to be lifted from the forthcoming lp is a flawless representation of some of the freakishly danceable tracks contained therein. a wholly original mashup of electronics, my heart rate rapid is sheer falsetto laden, drum battering brilliance. although metronomys elliptical, insidious, multi coloured art pop sounds nothing like colognes legendary purveyors of prog disco, can do offer clues to the lineage the band belong to. add early brian eno, sparks, devo, talking heads, soft cell, and then scratch your head for more recent examples of abstract music, full of experiment, risk, and individuality that somehow resolves itself into pop that makes you sing and dance and feel like a big kid and you realise that you cant think of any, because metronomy are, in the current pop milieu, an utterly unique proposition.

finest electronic masterpiece by rekleiner!! incl daniel stefanik.. the debut release from murmur records, a new project from geddes, is an experience-driven experiment into the future of our musical landscape

lars wickingers the clown is a great track from a great producer.....with releases on labels such as traum schallplatten and liebe he managed to stand out from the masses and present his own amazing style! 2.nicolas stefans hide this feeling a track that will for sure move the dancefloor. after his last releases on karatemusik and my best friends his is now putting all his effort on his latest release on rhythmetic records. 3. kidlans dopamine a surprise track on this ep from 3 producers that experiment and influence with their style. just listen to it and if you think that people can handle it spin this track on your record players. 4. theodoris triantafillous suspicious behavior deep down and groovy... a vocal track from a great greek producer with still lots to show in the upcoming years. full supported by : jaumetic, monoroom, dave dk, leon segka, mark henning, rob melo, gerome sportelli...

random trio delivers the goods once again with his trademark minimalist style. >claret< hits a fine balance between dirt and depth that evolves throughout the track and envelops the mind. my pick >fools day< sees the veteran experiment with some >dubbyer< influences, while still retaining the trademark random trio sound

a new label , a new day , a new direction. controversial and exciting , this label is going to be one to watch for anyone who has their brain switched on and who can make up their own minds about music. it is not going to play int o the hands of the minimal techno explosion but it will share the space and the dance floor with most styles of techno and provide your audience with some memorable moments in their lives. this is what we believe music should now be aiming to achieve. you are welcome to tell us if you think we are doing that or not. first track rox the box is almost daft punkesque in rhythm , but the groove is more techno styled with some serious heavy gating in the break giving it a glitchey crackly sound. strange dayze is a more mellow minimal techno experiment , a very cool club sound with some unusual melodies enjoy

the irrepressible cobblestone jazz present the first single from their debut album >23 seconds<, forthcoming in september on wagon repair. cobblestone jazz produce their tracks live, with a strong emphasis on improvisation, and the trio of programmer tyger dhula, keyboardists danuel tate and mathew jonson, make full use of their formative jazz training to transform the musical outfit into a pragmatic and responsive unit, a living and breathing creation, free of formulaic sequence. >lime in da coco nut< is a potion brimming with transformation. cobblestone approach a simple key melody from every angle imaginable, with the harmonies, disharmonies, bubbling accents and rhythmic permutations exposing the otherworldly potential of the simplest of tunes. a sinister whispered vocal conducts affairs, seemingly flustered at its inability to contain the unruly elements in this wonderful experiment. on >saturday night< a deep synth line and ghostly vocoded moans progress through a jungle of percussion and falling echoed tones, steadily approaching a beat that enlivens like water on a desert journey, or rather, like vodka on a saturday night. the dizzy finale spins around your ears, a bit like the ceiling after a particularly heavy weekend adventure… be sure to be well rested before tackling this sensory safari

jerrald james aka jerry the cat musical career is a typical example for detroit music of the last decades having played percussions with parliament and disco outfit cj & company he early came in contact with the first wave of detroit house and techno producers and began to experiment with these new sounds. his productions today are still evident for the unique mixture of detroit soul history and futuristic electronics. therefore this new sound signature is exemplary for the detroit sound as it skillfully fuses the free flowing jazz inflected vocals of genevieve with jerralds rootsy percussions play, accoustic live bass and a skanking, hypnotic house beat. flip over for the dubby instrumental track vanished

the legendary paul simpson and keith thompson come together to experiment on projects just prime for peak time club action. having wanted to work with each other for years they finally found the time with, black skin blue eyed boys, a remake of the 1960s uk anti war classic by the equals. with a classy mix by super legend tom moulton, a pumping mix by dj romain, and an evolving, tribal affair from dj smash, its a production already making serious noise as a promo

bastian heerhorst and patrick meissner from hamburg, first met each other in the end of the 90s by their common love for graffiti. inspired by the hamburg night live, they decided very soon to work creatively together, also for their music productions. because of bastians long time experience in electronic music and the revolutionary development of the virtual instruments, the two guys were fast able to obtain quite dancable results, also with a small budget. begun with the rather modest possibilities of a 4-tracker on the amiga and the first live-acts with a groovebox, bastians liking to produce and to experiment with all possible styles grew. since also patrick came in contact with electronic music in hamburg s scene already early, it was somehow predetermined that in the future not only walls, but also dancefloors gonna be rocked. the project >heerhorst & meissner< was born and with kompass musik a label was found, which was courageous enough to publish the first tracks of duo…

what is modern russia? an infinite space filled with skyscrapers made of gas and oil, golden crosses on church domes made of titanium, thousands of multi-floor beehives with millions of concrete honeycombs, where the fate of tired people burn out every evening. sensitive and subtle stirrings of the mind, persistently pushing up towards the light through the bootstrampled dirt, and blackened by ignorance. an infinite space of a centuries old experiment of power over man, and man over power on its way from nowhere to nowhere.
on the 1st of september, mindtrick records will release the new album ÒmuscoviteÓ from russian mysterious electronic music producer delete. his previous full length album Òpredatory things of a minuteÓ already dates back to 2012. after the album he released two more ep s on the label and released his controversial music video called Òa letter to godÓ about the war in chechnya, which gained more than half a million hits on youtube.

mit electric lines hat joe goddard zum ersten mal ein umfassendes kŸnstlerisches portrŠt all seiner musikalischen vorlieben entworfen von house, techno und disco bis hin zu uk-garage, r&b und electro-pop. ich hatte das gefŸhl, dass ich mich erstmals mit herz und seele einem soloalbum widmen wollte. entstanden ist es aus dem blickwinkel eines londoners, der mit der clubkultur aufgewachsen ist und ein sehr bewegtes musikalisches leben in dieser stadt gefŸhrt hat. wie four tet, caribou oder jamie xx kombiniert joe goddard eine unbŠndige lust am experiment mit einem instinktiven gespŸr fŸr den dancefloor und einer liebe fŸr progressive popmusik abseits des mainstreams. mit electric lines untermauert goddard seinen platz an der vordersten front britischer produzenten. neben sŠngerin jess mills hat sich joe goddard zudem den hot chip-kollegen alexis taylor und daniel wilson als gŠste eingeladen.
