as the 3rd single of j.s.s. s monthly release project, this includes a remix by carl craig !!! kiyotaka fukagawa aka calm (aka organlanguage and k.f., and the owner of music conception label) and kazuyuki shimizu aka herbest moon (also known as the rapper of tha blue herb and the owner of that label, the blue herb rec), combine here as the duo japanese synchro system and started their new project. this time an original song features the rap by kazuyuki shimizu under the name of ill-bosstino (you may never have heard of japanese rap, though) and that remix by carl craig, who has been dropping amazing songs in the market. speaking of remix, we can say it uses the voice of ill-bosstino rather than making his words stand out. either of them are mighty song. and an insert with japanese rap and english translation will be included, so it makes it possible for the people all over the world to feel that everyone lives on the earth are thinking about the same things when they are on dance floor, with enjoying crazy dance music...ltd repress

big with: Âme, dixon, cassy, radio slave, gregor tresher, shinedoe, karotte. after the massiv feedback to their well received second release the white boys are back with another pair of marvelous tracks. white 003 delivers you all the ingredients for a long night in and out of the club. oskar offermann‘s >cherry bombs< is a sure floorfiller with a certain pop appeal. pumping straight forward minimal house with some tricky-trancy elements and a few breaks here and there to pleasure even the most sophisticated crowd. back from his journey through southern fields, edward presents us a beautiful piece of intelligent techno. >inverno< is a trip across one of those sticky summer nights, when you feel like the sweat is dripping on the inside. nervous drums and basslines will turn your mind and make your heart beat faster.

finest looped techno four tracker

dj-support by adam beyer, alexi delano, paco osuna!! on his 2nd ep on aesthetik brian james shows his true colours. dark, deep and stripped down techno with a solid old school, almost chicago-esque feel to it. rubber doll instantly grabs you through its simplicity and efficiency. pulsating beats, a mental bassline with a slight bleepy feel to it. a true techno dj s delight. madrid s techno maestro xpansul turns rubber doll into a harder edged techno stomper. edgy technoid sounds and xpansul s trademark dark rhythmic craziness makes this track essential to any self-respecting techno jock! panic in detroit is again a typical brian james throbbing techno piece for when dancefloors go into >mental mode<. bubbling custard takes a more experimental direction, reminiscent of early dark model 500 tracks, but jacked up in brian s very own wickedness.

deep grooving classic house experience by pete moss!!! includes stripped down josh wink interpretation!!!

the spring time is aproaching and jesus loved you production is blossoming like never before. day by day, the familiy of valentino kanzyanis proteges is getting larger and larger as he keeps on recruiting more and more of the worlds most promising young djs and producers. topping the list of those who have been choosen to bear his sign, here comes chris barratt to show our crowd what he is made of. magicalminimalpopmusic is his second release for the jesus loved you and we can assure you that it is everything its title promises it to be - fun, minimal and emotional. the release expresses two sides of chris barrat. the gentle, almost fragile angel bells is a very kept back piece and is - as chris himself would have put it - all about emotions. whistlechimes is a more dynamic track with a perfectly fitted long bridge in the middle, making one feel chris barrats his huge dj potential.

big with sian, miss kittin, dubnitzky, tom pooks, the dolphins, jussi pekka,… >ekutok< is a powerful movement forward. the brand new track from the two transylvanians markus homm and mihai popoviciu has the sort of atmosphere and propulsive force that is good to feel in the marrow of your bones and gives you that needed thrust at 2 a.m. on the dance floor or on the autobahn. attentive, concentrated and progressive without compromise, the track inspires an uninhibited desire to put the pedal to the metal. it is characteristic of the homm & popoviciu style that they always succeed in composing their sound in a light, easygoing manner yet at the same time compressing surge with flow. the result has only one name: groove. with >ekutok< homm & popoviciu have not only delivered a phenomenal track, but also a perfect example of what freunde tontraeger considers beyond techno

mojuba is celebrating its 10th release with the resurrection of a real house music classic. we are talking about the legendary record called time reveals by chicago resident and house veteran bernard badie. many of you will remember the title track often mistakenly called >can you feel it< from the infamouse x-mix-5 the wildstyle by dj hell on studio k7! since today bernard badie was working together with friends like larry heard or dajae and delivers his unique house sound for labels like night club records, cajual and circuit records, la casa, distance and recently for tony humphries imprint. check this original house power

great album with lots of support by: italoboyz, karotte, layo, raresh, sebo k, stefan goldmann

incl kai alce rmx !! the third release on fast fwd. a bossa piano driven stomper that gets a fast and cool remix from kai alce (trackmode records) on the a-side. the original mix highlights the percussion and has a more jazzy feel, still very fast paced but not quite as manic. the last track is a mellow groover.

dennis ferrer gets remixed by charles webster & jihad muhammad. nj house producer/dj jihad muhammad takes us on a bonafide rhythmic journey with his rendition of the change the world. you can’t help but feel a funky sensation run through your body as you dance to his groove. also, previously unreleased is charles webster’s ruff mix of ferrer’s soon to be classic >how do i let go<. a simple, yet classic, house montage which compliments k.t.s melodic vocals.

2x 15mins of ultra hypno house!! big with ricardo villalobos, prins thomas, laurent garnier,… unarguably, the best way to prepare umu is inside a hole in the ground. go find a nice flat land, preferably your mother in laws lawn, gather friends, ask them to bring wine. youll need a well amplified turntable playing mania #11 on a loop. cut the grass using a flat shovel, four or six square pieces of 50 cms, lifting the grass with its roots and some soil, move aside. now you have a clean area of about 1.5 mts square, dig in it to a depth of about 50 cms (come on, it will make you sweat profusely but you need this shallow grave to feel the magik of easter islands umu!).

this new russ gabriel 12 is the long awaited kick-off for russ’s new techno imprint, sestra recordings and marks his return to the techno scene. this release follows up the infamous >future funk volume 1< which appeared some 11 years ago on u.k. electronica label >input neuron<. russ is a legend whose career spans nearly 20 years. having started his ferox records back in 1993 he went on to record for the likes of carl craig’s planet-e, soma records, djax-up-beats, dave clarke’s magnetic north, morris audio, force-inc and countless others. russ has been hailed as a master of techno production by djs such as laurent garnier and richie hawtin and continues to push his music forward with this ep aimed firmly at the dancefloor.

for his second collaboration with dj yellow (poussez records, ovum…) dj nabalistik presents us with 101 runin, a fantastic 3 tracker. 101 runnin has a superb dark, trippy feel to it while q moods remixes from nabalistik is the pick though, the stuttring pad and bass make it big dancefloor killer

production partners dj rico & mr fuzz aka grantorino have been in the scene for a while influenced principally by the 70s soul, jazz, gospel, funk and with a passion for world music, and they now drop this massive urban house single, which is due on their upcoming artist album on raisani records. the first single shake the black star, is exactly as what the title says, the track is deep yet hip that you will feel from the voice or the vocal hook that its been shaken by the hot urban star!!!! the single was featured on the dubai sessions compilation and lately on the dubai heat sampler and now after 8 months of wait we finally did the alix alvarez remixes to this biggie!!! shake the black star by grantorino is a funky groovin house track enriched with cool rap vocals, definitely for the hip house heads.

kill factory is running things with there latest big releases by various artists both new and upcoming. the new one is here in the same succesfull concept, so you know what to expect! big beats killing sounds and just pure mayhem. lexis (cardiac arrest) presents his solid kicks, edits and driving style, dj hammond from hungary bring you even further with his hardcore banging track and ocram (contempt) rocks you all the way with his rolling beats and crazy samplework!

its been six months since the last moxie and spring seems like a good time for a new release. spring means joy and so three very joyful, sexy cuts have made it to this release. we can rant on about obscure originals etc, but in the end its about good music and these tracks make us feel good.

poussez is the electronic bastard child of london based producer, dj duo jafar and maxime cescau. established artists and record label directors in their own right?.. jafar of course popping up on a few of our previous releases. poussez brings the pair blasting through to house musics cutting edge in the 21st century. the pair are continuing to change the deep house formula in the zeroes marrying a more melodic sensibility with the abrasiveness of electro, darkness of minimal and dancefloor punch of techno. natural conditions is deeper than the proverbial abyss, >natural conditions< rocks a skankin square-bass around the sort of synths freeranges >square one< has become renowned for. 4am crowd grabbing deepness!on the flip, from its opening synths, deliciously washing over you like an incoming electronic tidal wave, >tell me how you do< grabs the listeners attention. it has that timeless mid 90s deep house feel without being outmoded and, for those paying attention, will be noted as poussezs trademark opening track on their live sets

us mc cadence weapon delivers a hot electro hip hop/dubstep blend for fans of spank rock, dizzie rascal or lady sovereign.

imagine ed banger partying with throbbing gristle while donna summer watches from a distance and you are somewhere near to how this sounds, 8 bit backing tracks give it a retro feel while alices vocals are mashed, filtered and processed through various effects pedals sometimes to the point of being incomprehensible.

phonogenics >postcard< is slow burner, building and rising to a eventual climax of melancholic underwater deepness. this song will no doubt be played by those in the later time slots and anyone who wants to add a little journey to their mixes. our main man dex aka dave barker is back with another slice of some quality melodic quirky goodness. >yikes!< has a very chopped up funk/soul feel mixed with solid house beats. studio trickery and a hidden japanese opera helps the track evolve from its soulful beginning to another world entirely. finally, we are very pleased to bring you the first of many musical efforts from amantu wilde. not much is known about amantu as he is a bit of a recluse and does not offer up much information about himself. >g-g-got my eyes on you< is a very retro sounding track reminiscent of some classic new wave jams. pseudo industrial percussion and excellent filter work make this track something to remember. something strange for sure but we think people will like the break from the mod rn sounds

truffle music returns with andrew allsgood at the helm again. the up and coming producer and longtime toronto dj shows his promise once again with this slow grooving funk masterpiece that stretches over 7 minutes. the song travels through many sections and passes, carried the entire time by a driving dub bassline and vocal. for the lovers of deep, dubby and funky house and disco. nycs drrtyhaze (tirk, gomma) are commissioned on the remix and deliver the goods with an up tempo hypnotic stormer that sizzles with its surreal energy and simplicity. drrtyhaze use few elements from the original other than the vocal, taking it into deeper territory with a faster tempo and groove and much more electronic feel to the originals organic vibe.

classic old school electro cuts series !! part 1 starts with tunes by the packman, newcleus, c-bank and many more..

the enigmatic bulletdodge brings forth their debut release by up and coming glasgow dj/producers loweck, glasgows well known remixer electro voodoo and chicago house legend gene hunt. the >misdirection ep< is an exciting release that conveys vibrant techno magic. the first track to dawn the wax is lowecks original mix, which is a certain floor filler that drives with a dark bassline and explodes with an exciting arpeggio that will cause a frenzy on any dancefloor. track two is electro voodoos mix which is a more deep dubby mix that delivers a more layed back intelligent techno feel. the e.p. culminates with gene hunts mix which, fuses the essence of the original mix with a sub bass line and minimal bleepy effects to create a killer remix. the e.p. has been supported by terrence dixon and k alexi and is set to be a great success in 2008!

was diesen produzenten so besonders macht ist dieser deepe, deepe disco house, geküsst von sphärischen, warmen und psychedelischen einflüssen die er viel mehr in 70er jahre space rock als in chicago house oder detroit techno zu finden scheint wie es bei so vielen anderen ist. und genau das macht er, auf eben seine erstaunliche weise, auch auf dieser platte. john daly lebt in galway / irland und gründete 2005 sein eigenes label >feel music<

back to back killer selection and re works from one of frances hypest dj of the moment. smart re edits of these two hard to find slices of funk wax. original pressings reach stupid prices on ebay like sites... smiling is a belgium disco funk that very few know about. original version going from time to time very cheesy, it really needed a re edit to reach a much deserved club exposure. jammaster is a pretty sought after chicago funk classic, but strangely enough it got a very particular new jersey feel to it, even recalling some early blaze tracks... played and playlisted with the likes of dj cam, inflagranti, orest, pilooski...

thumping house gear from ferrer and sydenham on this 10inch release on ibadan. behind a booming bassline and a little french kiss synth influence as well, double penetration is perfect for that late night floor action, with a little progressive feel in the sweeping synth lines setting it off just right. both mixes glide effortlessly along - in fact if you get 2 copies and play both sides one after the other, the results would be outstanding!

tom stephans chumbomundo label is proud to announce a new series of eps highlighting hot new artists in scene: headztom really felt that he needed to give new artist a break on his label, as he receives so many cool tracks, whilst playing abroad. ep 1 has a true international feel with artists from the usa, italy, uk and the netherlands, covering tribal, twisted, prog and electro grooves.

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.

superb new 3 tracker. the original a side monster by perc itself is a killer with its driving minimal feel and weighty production. the remix on the flip comes from an excellent production duo currrently delivering some very hot material - bart skillz and anton pieete - aka district one. their reinterpretation adds even more weight to the original and drives the track to a new level. to finish off the ep nicely we have the bonus track - work softer. an excellent package

uks ben wijay starts canute music, a sub-label of phreakin recordings displaying his more adventurous techno and tougher house music concoctions. bringing a slightly harder feel than the phreakin output, but remaining left of centre with quirky melodies groovy percussion. >poisoned potato< starts in dark techno waters with a deep acid bass line, then blossoms into almost border community territory with anthemic distorted chords and quirky breakdowns.>feke< delves deeper with an arrangement that goes from hauntingly minimal into an aggressive staccato riff, then morphing back into itself with deeper melodies. definitely aimed at the 3am dance-floor and will appeal to lovers of the detroit techno sound through to the more obscure villalobos territory. gathering big support from the likes of charles webster, john aquaviva, aldrin and mixmags >house single of the month< (feb 08)

streetwise was one of the seminal dance labels of the eighties, responsible, with its subsidiary imprint partytime, for several important and influential examples of the dance genre. several of its releases were indicative of the directions that both dance and r&b would take over the next few years. the signing of vocal group new edition and their resulting hit candy girl is generally acknowledged as the beginning of the boy band phenomenon, and the labels last hit, music is the answer, was also a key element in the rise of house music. the label lasted for only a few years before falling victim to its own success and the related success of its owners, especially revered producer and remixer, arthur baker. here is a selection of streetwises greatest 12inch mixes, gathered from the archives during streetwise reign over the dance market presented on this vinyl.

support : richie hawtin / tobi neumann / villalobos / dj hell / onur Özer / karotte / gregor tresher / butch / david keno / popof / monika kruse... though the last heckmann - silverscreen is still rotating on the decks of the planet and in the cases of the great entertainers, he strikes again with his brand new series called las vegas ! it will be a story of three 12 inches that will lead to a complete cd album with extra tracks to complete the whole ! the main track las vegas is rushing in like a storm and is rocking as if there was no tomorrow ! fat beats, fat bassline and countless little far out effects, that will tickle your synapses big time ! the second track neon grave takes the story further and will lift even the last man on earth with its electro-latino feel, illuminating bassline and the heckmann style effect-arrays

4 killer remakes here from chicagos disco master dj rahaan, includes a tasty rework of le pamplemousse (aka rinder & lewis) 1979 cut >you can get off on the music< plus an edit of former temptations eddie kendrick s 1976 disco gem >thanks for the memories<, along with feel-good disco slammer from two tons o fun, >make someone feel happy today< and from 1987, >walk the night< from canadas answer to the village people, the bent boys

supported by tom clark, sasse, 2000 and one, woody, paolo martini, 3 channels, adultnapper, dj naughty, garnier and many more.. mindforce is an extra special release we have put together for you. it features an excellent remix by kabale und liebe who is currently causing a big stir amongst the house community with his deep and dark minimal groovers, needless to mention his big hit mumbling yeah that was in the charts of almost every dj and became one of the key tracks last year. also his upcoming productions on the dutch remote area label are amongst our favourite tracks so we couldn’t resist to ask this guy to do an interpretation of a special track we made. mindforce is a bit different to the rest of the dirt crew output, we wanted to make a more reduced grooving dj tool that is still old school but on the other hand contains an hypnotic feel that is more likely to be found in current minimal productions

new hardstyle 2 track ep produced by nitro man

nice price deal !!! rooster p incognito s debut ep, two tracks of deep, warm disco. >swing ratio< is pure class late nite wobbly disco, reminiscent of daniel wang old balihu sound, a similar loose feel and swing but with an added hybrid electrofunk touch. flip for >love deluxe<, a sweet and beautiful early doors space groover. should fit right in with your 80 s dubby, disco or metro area faves.

brill emotional deep house

eric prydzs pryda label has again delievered some stunning pieces of work this year that have been caned by pretty much everyone. tracks like rymd, armed, ironman, muranyi and maddeferrys have all been licensed to pretty much every compilation out there and have generated quite a stir. this time around europa gets an airing - this is another walloping production that has been doing the rounds with certain djs since the summer. it is a typically enormous club track with its building synth chords and huge breaks and drops. on the flip odyssey is also a killer with its slightly more subtle funky feel. this is another 2 track monster that will not go away!! dj support - pete tong, sasha, jon digweed, sebastian leger, eric prydz
