back again we have the mediterranean flavor of the friends affkt and alberto sola. always experimenting with different ingredients like the cooker ferran adria, the guys who laid the first stone of the legendary label barraca, now present a hybrid of pop and house which will leave no one indifferent. ‘pobla loves you’ was born with the tuba of alberto cuartero, orchestra director of hoya gonzalo in albacete. marc and alberto (affkt and sola) wanted to have a typical instrument of a band and merged it with the electronic dance scene, always being faithful to his maxim of making music to dance as well as to listen. if we surround valencia, road to pobla de farnals, we passed through la canada. there are los updates, who upon hearing the organic rhythm of pobla and the work with the wind instruments, set to work with the voices. perfectly adapted to the capital of the turia river, jorge and loreto propose a valencian poem that their children have learned at school. the moon of valencia then join our dinner for four. finally, we add to our paella a bit of percussion and keyboards made in affkt, to get a main course and obtain a typical valencian plate but by adding a little chilean salt becomes international. more oriented to the dance floor, there are three rather different remixes. new union between spain and chile, with danny fiddo and felipe venegas. this couple present an elegant and deep remix with drums and vocals perfectly adapted to the current sound. moreover, the french man darlyn vlys re-interpreted >pobla loves you< with a lot of groove and percussion added. finally, affkt gives his funker version of events to complete a job that will come out by the german label international freakshow

now we are very happy to bring to you his latest creation for break new soil: the title track >streamvision< kicks off with a subtle melody, easy-going at first but then growing stronger and stronger to finally explode in the breakdown – we can already see this one setting dancefloors on fire from rome to tokyo! on the flipside ilario shows a new side of his production – with >origami< he sets free a chicago-inspired monster groove that certainly will tear the roofs off the clubs its played in to finally let the summer in!

supported by ellen allien, konrad black, kiki, dop, andre galluzzi, dario zenker, dubfire, mikael stavostrand. yeah, finally the highly anticipated pherox ep on stock5 as arrived. everybody that worked on this knows how much hard work was needed to accomplish this epic feat. but what was the hold up? rumour as it that pherox aka tim querengaesser crossed the whole ruhrpottrainforest to find one of the weirdest bendiest organic house grooves that even a harden cadenzian wouldn’t be able to frown at.

who said the wait wouldnt be worth it? the brothers in house fritz zander and sven von thülen have made themselves somewhat scarce over the past year. after having impressed in 2008 with their ep >get up<, remixes for artists including ratman, elphine and oorsprong, and tracks on the watergate 02 compilation, their audible activities the following year remained confined to fritz zanders superb 12 inch >connection< and successful compilation appearances on >ten years cocoon ibiza< and >time warp<. now there is finally something new, and the current zander vt release certainly lives up to the promise of its title: >some more< picks up where >get up< left off. its fourno-frills house pearls prove resoundingly that continuity doesnt have to entail standing still.

fear of flying regular leif provides the 4th release for fofs revitalised limited label. a supa slick slice of modern vocal house, priority sees leif up his game with supremely tight production, a killa funked up b-line and sensual vocal from new recruit donna lea. for remix duties we opted for the up & coming talents of young un ethyl along with production partner flori. they come up with an altogether different take, coaxing elements of the vocal into a bigger sounding deep house experience. finally we thought we opt for a little bit of a curve ball in the shape of daze maxim. upon hearing dazes installment in the excellent story series we knew he was someone we needed to get on board - here daze strolls into tough tech house territory with a groove slightly reminiscent of rick wade at his most dance floor

truly beautiful deep house records are things to be treasured, akin to proper songs that will last the test of time, not made to meet a fleeting fad. this is one of those records and a real pinnacle & departure for blm & pawas. although the term deep is an oft overused one, >waiting game< personifies the genres true key traits with a subtly moving groove that gradually builds, using layers of subtle percussion and a rich, warm synth motif to make a rich tapestry of sounds before finally introducing the beautiful female vocal that gives the track its name. patrice scott liked the track so much that he agreed to remix it - his first ever outside of his own, excellent, sistrum label. using plenty of the original track parts but taking it a different direction, patrice really has come up with something special. the track moves along with snippets of the main vocal and clever use of the main synth, the groove being underpinned by patrice s classic sense of production before moving into a more classic >detroit< ending - a mindset with a bigger, more dramatic sensibility

meet desto. we found him wandering the streets of helsinki, eating canned tuna and drinking the water from a tin of hot dogs, desperately clutching armfuls of sticky future garage. starting off in spacey 2step rhythms, falling over bassline, and breaking down into an euphoric 8 bit cascade, the epic >disappearing reappearing ink< finally reaches wax after being in the boxes of pretty much everybody all year. on the flip, >broken memory< was given its first exclusive airing by oneman on radio 1 to much acclaim, and takes more of a straight up approach, and retains all of the fluid c64 chiptune beauty.
dj support from rob da bank, oneman, brackles, sinden, floating points, clouds, mary anne hobbs.

here is finally the first single from yakine, a close member to the eklo family. after his featuring on the hooksey vol.1, he gave us four tracks which he worked specially for this ep. yakine explored a new sound, some more melodic and deeper works, different from his usual stuff. captor of sin, the main track here. we find yakine in a more pop dimension with the vocals. the metric rhythm is mix it up with sub and perky shuffle grooves, everything harmonized through a lead ambiance made of weird synts & pads. then shirp, lead from synths, the track go on in the same vibe, more excentric and percussive, rounded beat, and a slap bass, 80s funk type. on the flip, temptation, a more singular track, a great detroit techno influenced, with his unusual keys and some indus sounds. the story ending with aferone, a deep and sensitive balad, overhang by a poetic piano coming and going all along. solid and versatile 12 inch.

>hollow hills< keeps the psychedelic side of riley reinholds music up, which he has released since his first release on disko b in 1995 (red flare ep). jittering voices, sounds that ricochet and basslines that come like little earthquakes. the 11 minute epic >hollow hills< works similar to the waves at the beach, constantly featuring irregular shapes and never repeating itself. the track has been remixed by french artist gohan, who lives in paris and who has electrified the track with his vision of modern daring electronica, bordering on music the glorious wishmountain did in the past. finally domestic musical impact comes from the cologne musician oeler who has made a tougher and more elaborate percussive beat, the core element of his interpretation of >hollow hills<.

believe it or not - summer has finally come. so what could be nicer than some audio delicatessen, produced to become the perfect companions for this season? sun shining in your face, groove rolling through your hips: that must have been andreas krügers vision of the upcoming months. so how come the calender and the leaves on the street are presenting us with a completly different truth? it seems like der dritte raum wants to shed some light onto these endless weeks of cold and darkness - and really, sunny thoughts and warm feelings find their way into our hearts and minds

vassilis pallas aka v.sexion was born in the late 80s, in a decade when techno and house put its little stone to the music world. in early childhood he found himself shakin in disco tunes moving it up to punk and rock. but it was jazz, afro beats, garage house and urban music that finally deeply influenced him in developing a particular music style...

manuel tur has been making some great music recently, whether it be as one half of the ribn project with partner langenberg, on numerous remixes alongside dplay or solo on a variety of labels such as mild pitch, pokerflat, freerange, mule music, drumpoet and now delusions of grandeur. fianchetto opts for a dark, spaced-out and deeply hypnotic vibe full of warm, subby disco beats, shimmering rhodes and echoing horns. a masterful production from manuel that is loaded with atmosphere and sounds mighty on a big system. next up we have beasts and the birds which goes for a heavy looped up disco approach full of raw detroit sensibilities and attitude. finally, tim toh (much respected and sickeningly young german producer releasing on soulphiction’s philpot label) stretches out beasts and the birds into a 9 minute journey into abstract dance. once again, we’re talking unrefined, no compromise house music here, the likes of which you won’t be hearing on an mos compilation anytime soon

portugals finest exponent of the disco re-edit culture, social disco club, finally delivers his debut release on disco deviance. and wow has it been worth the wait! sdc has had releases on mindless boogie, eskimo and big bear amongst other top labels. he is also a top notch disc jockey and his dj sets are fuelled by his own disco re-edits. for this release sdc slices up the saturday night bands >dont< and extends it into a joyful heavy disco groove that rocks the dancefloor. while on the flip, he demonstrates a more slow mo disco style in his reworking of leo sunshipps >sunshine<, which brings to mind the work of mark e and the revenge, while still keeping a firm eye on the disco ball. both tracks are respectfully edited, lovingly re-mastered and cut loud at 45 rpm for maximum dance floor pleasure and dj delight.

heres a mighty steamroller of a track by funky californian cole medina, co-founder of the house arrest label, that aims to put the ghetto back in house music, and esteemed producer with a jazz background championed by the haute-volee of current disco and house djs. while his slo-mo bee-gees cut-up is still the center-piece of numerous latenight/ early morning sleaze hours worldwide, >red hot< is quite another beast: footstomping peak-time action with dangling funk guitar and dubby brass stabs. finally dropping after todd terje already included it in his resident advisor almost two years back with an additional stellar the mole ( wagon repair, philpot ) on the support. canadas funkdoobiest reconstructs it in a jacking, midtempo wild pitch manner around a dirty fuzzy bassline plus cut-up beat and wah-wah guitar that will slap you silly. this hurts so good!

finally, the long wait is over! we are proud to present the first solo effort by leviste and its been worth the wait. three ultra varied tracks starting with the driving drums and bassline of >senioritis<. >better get used to it< shows off levistes melodic abilities with a beautiful melancholic epic. these first two songs really show what an important role leviste has played in the duos productions over the years. >change the station< rounds things out with a bit of modular synth experimentation over a jacking rhythm track.

this man cant currently be stopped. following his releases through the 2nd season 2009 (>marvin” on compost, >smaul 06< & >smaul 07<) in january 2010 acid paulis >riverboat tour< came out. now, it seems he opens this years summer season with these two psychedelic thrilling tracks. even though he had been touring a lot with the notwist last year, acid pauli was pretty often an invited, musically refreshing guest in berlins minimal techno (what ever) scene. den mahlstrom rauf leaves no doubts about. great build up he does by keeping tension over five minutes to unlash finally the madness charge with a levitating reverse-ducking-compressed melody. den mahlstrom runter (a play on words of travelling on a boat and getting milled…) seems to be the return from the trip he gives on side a. it is the same track reworked. his musical drama goes faster but deeper under the cortex – but >how lucky a fate< deliverance comes at right time taking the track over to a known housy and deep realm.
