ltd handmade cover ... telrae welcomes soundseeker, noise controller,full time musician, van bonn. he has written two tracks for telrae. both of them are constructed like a theatre play.. each tone is intentionally-on purpose- generated and set in its propper place to create a symbiotic effect... which you realise once you give them time to interact… and create something which might be just one element in a chainreaction. van bonns definition of techno dub. you could say van bonns has written the most abstract release so far for telrae and you could be right. the two tracks are not written for functional reasons, but are very functionel for the ones that seeks for similar feelings such as, deepness,landscapes of sound or just snapshots in which time stands still. these tracks come from far away to be discovered by likeminded people. dive into the world of van bonn.

3 selected tracks from fred ps third full-length cd album on proper 12 inch.

wolkenreise finds the duo moving away from the dark, peak hour techno to a gentler sound that flirts with emotive deep house for something classy and inspired. the track offers here is built on a raw, unhurried kick. all important contrast comes from the dry, echoing claps (which cut gorgeously through the bass clouds like, well, thunder) at unexpected intervals, a distant, longing and muted organ line (i think) and some heavy hearted synths. it’s melancholic but optimistic, and has a certain classiness to it which i really dig.” -teshno, january 2011. these are just some of the words that have many saying wolkenreise is the single of year so far with massive global support from all over the world including seth troxler, laurent garnier, craig richards and alexi delano to name a few. glistening and glowing remixes are created by the brilliant minds of john tejada, dj qu and rene breitbarth to offer up a vinyl that is timeless

the ever evolving ever inspiring argentinean turned berliner musical talent that we call out nico purman, once again honors the house of vakant with his latest disco inspired offering to the gods entitled visions ep. in such a short period of time nico has come so far both physically and meta-musically. within just a few releases one can easily hear him developing, maturing, and mastering his chosen art medium. from the mechanical tech funk of his tuesday ep (va017) and euphrasia ep (va025), to the space jazz masterpiece that was rhapsodies (va032), his first step toward disco was in fact with his contribution >xpress yourself< to the family values compilation (va034). with visions ep, once again nico effortlessly transgresses whatever style he wishes and makes it his own. taking a few pages from the book of disco as well as a touch of chicago and a pinch of early new york house, nico both tips his hat to those influences as well as taking things several steps further to create something completely original.

oliver schories (ostwind, seenplatte, parquet) shows again his talent for emotional moments. this time on holgi stars label rompecabeza. incl one the best remixes from helmut dubnitzky (brise) i ve heard so far

double vinyl with 2 bonus tracks.

since other heights started just one year ago, dubbed and deep sounds have always been the keywords of this modest label. after several cd releases, the first 12inch vinyl release is available. this ep provides a spectrum of styles in the shape of three tracks by szare, helix and brooks mosher. ranging from percussive to chord-driven techno, the producers reflect what other heights is all about. so far supported by field records, anthony shakir, fanon flowers, donnell knox, myles sergé, don williams, xdb, samuli kemppi and duplex

the feedback so far has been major from amon tobin (ninja tune) to datsik (lifted music), noisia (massive trax), not forgetting steve aoki (dim mak), yvan smagghe, discodeine and morpheus..

one of the highlights from the recent nightstarter 8 compilation – on my mind gets a remix treatment from the hottest trio of club cowboys right now. roberto rodriguez digs out his 909 out of the closet and works out a mid 90s inspired slammer, not far away from the golden times of strictly rhythm. added sample vox and the shuffled drums drives this up to the max before dropping some serious organ madness into the game. sure fire floor burner. for the vocal shy, we have included the dub as well. mano le tough brings us some of his trademark balearic deep techno which we just love to play! damn fine arrangement coupled with soothing melodies and a churner of a bassline makes this one of his finest remixes – we are happy to welcome mano on moodmusic for his first, but definitely not last guest appearance.

minibar is proud to welcome glucks first solo ep silence-friction. gluck is best known for being 1/2 of minibars super-boy-band ultrakurt and for his sparse solo productions under the monicker spasm. david gluck now returns on his own for a funk-packed house ep, far from all things minimal but still in the purest minibar tradition, in full compliance with official ultrakurt regulations: nonsense as a state of mind, moronic loops for breakfast and cheap bleeps à gogo. get your copy while theyre still legal

produced in 2004, this ep marks an essential shift in the production of stefan goldmann to his modus operandi as a dedicated innovator. he had adapted the barricade guise to induce some serious deviations into the techno realm. yet, heads werent ready and he simply continued under his real name with his major breakthrough works: perlons blood ep and the legendary sleepy hollow tune. hidden from the public, aleko and frantic had built a prototypic aesthetic of rough, concrete-space sounds - reduced dark, metallic percussion grooves, spring reverbs and degraded post-acidic synths. you name it where you heard this sound years later. its revealing how far ahead these tunes were at the time of their creation. they sound more now than many current tracks. aleko is the 4/4 techno version of this soundset, locked-in clonk patterns built around a nitrous bassline. frantic could be a future development to todays dubstep, if it wasnt its actual historic predecessor. add the schizophrenic bass excursion heliotrope and you have a package of painstaking relevance. back then the a&rs simply didnt get it - thats why it took 6 years and the formation of victoriaville to finally bring these gems to light

this is the first album oscar mulero has released under his own name, after two acclaimed lps under the moniker trolley route. well known for his skills as a hard-edged, raw and floor-orientated techno dj, his productions go far beyond, digging deep into the intricate landscape of intelligent techno, floating moods, reminiscent atmospheres, harmony and detail. grey fades to green is the affirmation of his maturity as a producer, using both hardware and software in the pursuit of a highly coherent and diverse album.

matthew styles remixes one of fofs biggest releases of 2010. never straying far from the source material, matthew wraps things up in his usual tight production style, employing a live bass sound and elements of the original melody to give things a tripppier edge than the originals straight up dance floor leanings.
on the flip and walking that fine line between house and techno, blm turns in a very fine and contemporary remix of drake and griifiths >the devils eyes<. dystopian in its outlook, the remix drives along with a simple but full bassline with plenty of dancefloor power.

after dorisburgs hypnotic journey we give you the return of genius of time! a-side gliese 581g is an analogue tribute and journey to the newfound planet in the gliese star system, far, far away. on the flip, expect a stripped-down conga groove and laser blasts of science fiction house music that will rip up the dancefloors! according to some reviewers aniara03 is idiosyncratic non-conformist house music... and yes, we do agree with those words!

light sounds dark combine forces with fellow marshmallows psychemagik on a ride to the other side and as one would expect from these two a variable treasure trove of a selection plucked from all corners of the known galaxy and far beyond.

the latest addition to the ostgut roster, detroits ryan elliott, is a recognised force on the international dj circuit - yet his productions are few and far between. now re-located in berlin, the new berghain resident contributed his track >abatis< to the >fünf< anniversary compilation, setting the tone with dark and brooding techno undercurrents. these two new tracks bring ryans production skills to the fore, both slow burning and refined recordings that show off his love for bassline-led, straight forward club tools.

two new faces on freakshow belong to a crazy spanish combo called kasbah zoo! established some years ago through the union of alex and nicolas who are based in barcelona. after 10 years of individually experience in music production and nightlife, they decided to create a new project where their maturity can do a refined music product.as a result they already had some underground hits during the last years. so far the two guys were releasing tracks on zoo:technique and rawthentic music. their next step took them straight into the intl. freakshowi&#769,s artist pool. with their original version of the title track i&#768,palabrasi&#770, kasbah zoo is unleashing a damn good piece of pumping techhouse. alongside the original we bring you 2 more remixes coming from christian burkhardt and romano alfieri. both are as hot as hell, too. all in all one must say that this record is keeping iti&#769,s dynamic groove from the start to the very end & it will help perfectly to get fully loaded from head to toe!

support from the whole techno keyplayers crew worldwide like karotte, youandme, kaiserdisco, mihalas safras, patrick lindsey, echonomist,.... get dapayks first release on dekadent so far ! our thuringian mastermind delivers 2 raw and rollin killer techno tracks as we love it.

so far all 50 weapons releases have been either remixes of or by modeselektor and moderat, or split 10inches like the ones by humanleft & benjamin damage and earlier this year the fantastic elan vs falty dl record. 50weapons008 marks the first ever 50 weapons solo release by an artist. ladies and gentleman, cosmin trg, the man who never fails, presents two mighty techno weapons, striking, classic and modern at the same time.

limited, 300 pressed… once upon a time in a borough not so far away… endlessly walking the streets, on one of those hot-as-hell summer days in brooklyn nyc. you pause on the corner, to catch your breath, only to have an old box of records catch your eye. your fingers start to gather dust as you rifle though 12s with names like strictly rhythm, nu groove, madhouse, henry street and loop nloop on the labels. as you reach the end of your frenzied search, one unassuming piece of wax, in particular, seems to mysteriously peek your interest… on the corner vol. 1. the debut release for the brooklyn nyc based cortelyou road recordings. this will be first in a series of compilations coming from cortelyou road. leaving no stone unturned in their search for the finest production talent from around the globe

for the second and far overdue release on his little leaf imprint matt moroder delivers a superlative psychedelic reimagination of shuggie otis which sits far beyond the realm of your blog standard ableton edit. matt scliced the original into little pieces put it new together and added some drums and percussion with the respect this soul classic deserves. this rework is hypnotizing makes you wish to never end. on the flip hamburgs hardest working entertainer erobique used the same kind of gentleness to rework some cello and voice by one of the greates disco visionaries and songwriters that left us much to early. by creating a dirty mpc beat and blend it with vocals and cello erobique creates his own vision of the late arthur russell far from the average four too the floor mediocrity. this vinyl only release is strictly limited to 300 copies and shines even more with a splendid artwork that shows love and care

big with: deetron, tedd patterson, stuart mcmillan, craig richards, josh wink, chymera, stephan bodzin, monika kruse, ivan smagghe, paul woolford, stacey pullen, radio slave, ... the word >legend< gets bandied around and awarded far to easily these days. but a truer title could not be found for , kirk degiorgio. from the mid 80s working in sohos reckless records buying in the latest rare soul and jazz releases from the us, to his current 2010 releases on planet e and art. kirk has been at the very forefront of boundary pushing, electronic music since its inception.

2010 has been a massive year for jozif, emerging as one of the most talked about artists in house music. the follow-on from the first sell-out edition, “beats in space”, “brick jane” goes further to cement his place as one of the vanguard of the london music scene, and propel fist or finger to the status of a buy-on-sight label. jozif’s title track – the dancefloor focused ‘fist’ of the package – goes in deep, the momentum continuously building as the track twists and turns through a landscape of deep slabs of bass assured deployment of subtle guitar plucks and piano chords, and dreamy xylophones. finally releasing into an epic crescendo, jozif only allows the moment to last just long enough, before all the elements are stripped right back as the journey starts all over again. brick jane draws out a journey, continuing to morph and subtly affix new elements throughout its 7 minutes. the arrangement is simple yet the progression is deft, subtle and effective, creating a vibe that can be employed at any given time of the night, offering a truly different context. craig’s ‘finger’ re-interpretation picks up the thread where his “beats in space” remix left off. crackling static laced with woozy atmospheres and paranoid utterings flip the vibe of the original completely on its head. richards displays a completely unique ability to stretch the original track far beyond its character into a completely different dimension, building a warped soundscape that feels as though it was recorded in a chasm deep deep underground. a mind-bending journey from a truly multi talented artist, in the truest sense of the word

for more than 5 years cargo edition has been standing for the deeper house productions of moon harbour/cargo edition’s roster of artists. so far acts like ekkohaus, michael melchner and markus schatz have been setting the tone. now this platform is offered to artists who haven’t yet appeared on the label. the warehouse release is the first of a series of various artists eps. we invited artists like steven cock from dresden, ralph sliwinski as well as the italian acts mass prod & marco daquino and minimono to contribute tracks to warehouse vol.1. the sound of the first ep is all about consistent house music that does not need any cheap rave tricks. old school house music is quoted with skills and style and translated to the modern dance floor. warehouse vol.1 is the perfect start into the fifth year of cargo edition. luciano (cadenza): cargo edition is a great label, probably one of the most quality dance music.. full support!

thomas fehlmann is integral to kompakt and the labels history. his solo releases and collaborative work with alex patterson as the orb have been some of the kompakts most revered and cherished tunes. following the success of his 2010 full length gute luft (a collection of re-edited versions from his score to the hit documentary 24hr berlin), we start 2011 off with titan one / dfm. on october 16, 2010 thomas fehlmann performed in montreal, canada at the historic molson coors brewery building together with members of the montreal symphony orchestra (osm). together they sought to recreate a version of gustav mahlers classic symphony no. 1 (titan). kompakt is proud to now offer a new recording inspired by that epic concert of symphonic and electronic with a new recording inspired from that performance – renamed as titan one. the hum of cellos and strings conjoin fehlmanns electronics – held together by the sublime, unobtrusive thump of a bass drum. titan one flows with a beauty and edacity that is rarely heard in both classical and electronic music form. the b-side features a new recording inspired from the second piece of the performance - a new version of thomas fehlmanns du fehlst mir from his 2006 kompakt full length visions of blah. reanimated as dfm, the piece again conjoins the different musical worlds in a way we have never heard to such a high standard. a much more upbeat affair than to titan one (of course) bass and keyboards mingle with the symphony the playfulness of the original song rolls throughout dfm. whether as palais schaumberg, the orb, or 3mb (to name only a few alias). fehlmann may have 3 decades of professional recordings under his belt but he continues to prove to the world as being one of the most fascinating and creatively open musicians in his field. this release clearly proves his story is far from over.

ltd repress !!! where to begin with >likewise<...from a handful of cds that emerged early last spring >likewise< was by far the record of the night at diddys house party in miami. it then hit the top spots in mixmags charts and became one of the most wanted tracks by every a list dj during ibiza this summer and is still being championed by djs such as luciano and lee van dowski !

crazy p return to 2020vision with their first new material since the stop space return album. the mts series is a chance for jim & chris to get back to basics and produce some club tracks for their in demand dj sets, before they reconvene with the rest of the band for their next album. already making waves with both of their soloexcursions (ron basejam and hot toddy), they team up here for two perfect examples of their trademark disco and house vibes. crazy p are quite rightly held in great esteem from some of the hippest names around, wolf & lamb, jamie jones and tensnake to name three. they have been ploughing their own deep disco furrow for many years waiting for fashion to catch them up, and now can take the plaudits for being figureheads of this uk scene. my love is a superb raw house cut, thats custom built for sweaty basement sessions, influenced by classic us house. make me wanna takes a moreunk riffs and diva vocals. both of superb examples of the amazing crazy p sound and have had unanimous glowing feedback from the few people lucky enough to have heard them so far

perhaps the most daring of the voodoo catalogue so far, raiden returns for his second solo outing with two numbers that truly explore the percussion concussion of voodoo music.

the latest from thesongsays brings back one of our main players - bruno pronsato. whats he been up to you might ask? aside from completing his album lovers do, working on music with thomas melchior and daze maxim and putting out records as pubic lover with our leading lady ninca leece, not much… maybe hes been in the rafters sipping coffee or understudying for bigger roles. who knows. nonetheless he’s back. these two new tracks come from his upcoming lp, lovers do. its a single, sort of. but not really. because when has bruno ever done a single like we know a single? this 12-inch is about as far as you could get from club fodder. rather, its a pair of subtle grooves to soundtrack you cutting carrots, sipping whiskey, or dancing at some intimate afterhours spot

once again, berlin based resopal label head mri sticks to his guns and brings you strangely funky tunes. weakend-polka titled ep is filled with three tracks, all spiked with steady beats, funk, deep melodic chords and an overall glamour house feel. this is not only very well produced house / funk music, its also a journey through deepness and a modern take on the soulful side of the electronic music which exceeds the genre by far with a rich, colourful palette of surprising, individual sounds, butter-smooth chords, some of the most raunchiest bassline that you will ever hear outside of drum n bass, cleverly constructed beat patterns that yet never fail to jack and swing and an understanding of dub that goes far beyond the random use of echo and effects. this is electric intergalactic soul/funk/house/techno. its noir, its dirty, its dangerous and risqu. on vinyl, as we like our little record-shop around the corner.

quality groovin techhouse action

1 track continues with delivering some serious house music! after three releases we know their goal... epic house tracks rooted in the best tradition of chicago and early nineties productions. 1 track in three versions, main, mix and reprise. this 4th release in the series might very well be the biggest so far with a upbeat track that is build on a romantic classic groove and with a precise arrangement. slowly building and creating tension is what john daly can do like no other. this is a precision bomb with a devastating effect when an expert pilot drops it at the right moment

it would be a complete mistake for any house imprint not to include a us talent in his catalog, this wont be the case for apersonal music. on its third effort the label takes his first journey to the grounds of american house. from arizona, michael j collins with remix rework from bostons house-sons soul clap, plus the first collaboration for apersonal from maurice aymard. a side single nothing wrong with holding on show us the most eclectic side of the label so far. looped vocals, broken house with a saxo on top. michaels talent goes beyond genres mixing elements from different styles to create this great piece of music. soul clap delivers, as usual, top stuff! in their remix they speed up the bpm and add a hip-breaker bassline taking the original track to the dancefloor war zone. second remix from maurice aymard, himself at the controls plus venezuelan producer garnica hitting the drums, they take the track to a trippy slowmo version, what maurices catalogs as his best remix so far.

here it is, the third release on the snuff crew label snuff trax! on snuff trax 003 you find winter in june. you might already know this track from the snuff crew livesets. winter in june is maybe the most melodic snuff trax release so far. this floating music is not only for the body - it s also something for the heart. on the b-side, dance disorder, who release on labels like bpitch control, deliver a fantastic and very epic remix. this mix was also already played by snuff crew in their set for tim sweeneys beats in space show. stx 003 is limited to 250 hand-numbered vinyls.

holmby hills two smooth n ruff house tracks and two hip hop-jazz encores turn this record into a testimony for the state of mind of formresonance. when soul is melted together into an off the grid house track, it is not that far-fetched that both men have shared their music ever since tapes existed. engin oeztuerk, one half of here today, which came out on philpot and buzzin fly and block barley (who already has released two albums on hong kong records and we aint music) are both tinkering in search of music to dance to. they wickedly transform their musical masters ideas into something extraordinary sounding. an off-the-grid team

dj skirt has been present on the uk techno scene for well over a decade . although her route has been far from straight forward, she originally hails from texas, there is no doubt that her influence and sound have been shaped by the birmingham techno renegades surgeon and regis. drones,hushed vocals and fractured beats combine to give us an unsettling glimpse of the future sound of her adopted home, birmingham.

the number 13 my be considered unlucky by some, but not so far italians. fittingly, for uzuri 013 we welcome back leopoldo rosa aka lerosa for his third release on the label - his first being back in 2007 on uzuri 001. this new 12 inch precedes his forthcoming full length release for the label.

played so far by richie hawtin, secret cinema, pascal feos, matt star, tim green

this is one of the biggest releases on the label so far: juan pablo pfirter and alex bau team up for a smashing peaktime experience that leaves no space to take a breath. the modulating main synth-theme determines the character of both mixes and while juan stays very dry and powerful, direct sound, alex roughens it down to a dark technomonster as if there is no tomorrow. after release of pfirter on such highclass labels as clr, figure, stroboscopic artefacts and his very own mindtripmusic this is a stunniung debut on dmom.
played by: richie hawtin, alex bau, wjh, pfirter, dalidad djs, laurent n, etc

franklin de costa is someone we have been following since his first releases on trapez ltd. we still believe >kronn< on curle014, franklins debut for curle, is one of the strongest tracks we have released so far on the label. this >fragile ep< gives again a great taste of franklins qualities as a producer. whereas the title track is definitely the one on here with the biggest peaktime dancefloor potential, the three other tracks show franklins firm talent and diversity in crafting organic deep house tracks that step out of the ordinary. truly a special ep.

sound-design from a far-away galaxy, functional and intelligent arrangements, tricky elements somewhere between handmade and cinema-scope and continuously surprising ideas - this is the music of an extraordinary talent: boris brejcha.
he is one of the most productive creative minds of this time segment and while constantly releasing a great amount of tracks, his music does not sound like the work of a mechanic following a certain formula. boris force roots from a unique style that has a focus on diversity and still you recognize his hand-writing while listening to his tricky arrangements and breaks that are different as they can be.

58 minutes of proto house, denizen loops, far flung folk, post punk, cosmic rock and other junk. after forging new ground with his previous sonic hotchpots >miscellaneous mutant mishaps< and >the exploding disco inevitable<, dom thomas returns with another brain melting audio escapade into the ether. the third album in his dynamic anti-mixtape series on brutal music is salubriously entitled >synthetic soul & other junk<, giving thomas free license to curate a mood that takes the unsuspecting listener on a cascading journey of edits and loops, blurring the lines of traditional dj mixes and original compostion. >synthetic soul< is composed of a variety of genres from >international disco frankenstien< thomas musical heritage, warping together vastly disparate records into a rich sonic tapestry. repeated listening recommended with or without substances...

fifth release on the acclaimed imprint from those lovely people over at the acclaimed sleazybeats blog. the dust just doesnt seem to settle at team sleazy who are set to unleash their fifth dish of mid-tempo filth. sbr005 should likely round out what has undoubtedly been more than a successful year for the sleazy beats crew. as hard as it might seem to upstage their recent sampler, this release by berliner daniel solar (of no more hits and dikso fame) is another trio of totally on point sleazy business which showcases daniels stellar skills. things start off with midfidelity funk, a snappy romp through steady synth and disco string territory. this little number delivers a perfectly spell-binding groove with nicely placed rhodes stabs, crisp tambourines and haunting vocal at the breaks. on the flip, twinkle love snaps out a sweet melange of piano, guitar/bass riff and morphing vocals that combine to give a lively mood and open atmospherics. finally, rounding up the ep is la fleur, a wonky yet punchy cut thats ripe with staunch drum sounds and strings amidst loopy vocal snippets for good measure. all three tracks ride a 110ish bpm groove that is likely to ring bells for those who have been following and digging the sleazy sound so far. the last few releases all sold out in a matter of weeks, so dont sleep on this. you know the drill by now: limited release, no repress.

its been a while for mr lovebirds and also the label teardrop to serve some fresh slices of homemade house jam. well, we think it better not to put out every bonus beat we program and rather wait until we have something that really deserves to be thrown in todays pool of musical randomness. do we sound bitter again? sorry, for that … must be the age. so … love & happiness. yeah, i want that and probably everybody does … well here ya go: its a slick slow house bomb with proper oldskool 909 drums and some sliding portamento chords that wont never leave your head!! at least until the breakdown when this track takes you even further back in time to that beautiful intro that has rarely been used more beautifully. its been tested for months now by vincenzo, phonique and mr bird himself and devestated every floor so far. let me put it this way - this is biiiig!!!! flipside is the rain - classic 90ies deephouse with a touch of kerri which we all love right? this has the typical lovebirds warmth that we all need in these modern techno times. and in this autumn too. none other than mr steve bug took care of the remix and delivered a superb very 90ies new yorican style version. keeping the warmth he added some percussion to it and turned this into a nice builder. enough talk … we are very excited about this release and looking forward to your full love on this one. play it loud and everywhere!! and maybe even chart it if youre a good lad!!

including remix by cristian vogel.
