catalog number 004 on four roses recordings is yet another sublime release of the motor city drum ensemble. following the success of his first single for frr, breath control, danilo plessow this time brings us two quite unique tracks: the a side (sunsequence) being a dark, repetitive and haunting piece of post detroit techno which continuously builds layer upon layer, until it finally explodes: the pulsewave drones, jupiter chords and 808 patterns will cause maximum effect on the dancefloor. feel the love on the b side slows things down a little, but keeps the dark mood, adding some of that old school sample flavour to create a trippy afterhour track, that sounds different from anything you ve heard lately. ltd restock

incl maxi cd !! skail master m, a well known electro-techno-house duet from geneva, is back with a new ep, released on the fresh slim records label. champagne , first, a fluid and festive hymn, a vibrant mix of liquid sounds and sparkling rythm, full of a bright, clear lightness. miamore , then, with its smooth texture, slightly enhanced with fleeting, evanescent, almost impalpable beats. and at last, white chocolate , to conclude on a bright, shiny explosion of sensual shades, a playful blast of subtle tones and glowing resonances, soft impulses and sharp brilliances.

from his mixmag >future hero< tag, to his efx1000 tutorial videos for pioneer (he has been likened to james zabiela but with bigger bass lines) and his ongoing residency at the dirty disco in leeds (the northern light was the original home for the club night which the ep title pays homage to), the only piece missing from his jigsaw was the production side of things, until now. he recently teamed up with spektre to launch their new respekt label with the >cuernos cubanos< collaboration, and now we are very proud to present matts first ever solo productions, brought together as >the northern light ep<.
>pack your trunks< is dark twisted statement of intent, with a hearthrob-esque hook giving off the feeling that the track is ever so slightly on the brink of loosing it, before that tough gloomy groove reminds you just why you were listening in the first place, and why you have to listen to it just that one more time...
>triptup< attacks with a driving upbeat vibe that also arrives with a crazy tinged edge to it, keeping the dance floor bouncing off the walls, this has never failed to receive anything less than devastating reactions during its many roadtests on our travels.
>the swinger< rounds off the ep with a kinky tech houser that swaps the power of its 2 harder brothers for some chirpy tomfoolery, without compromising on its absolute effectiveness to well and truly rock the party whilst getting completely stuck in your head. and dont forget the breakdown...

dark beat is a new label from glasgow, set up to promote its own take on deep, dark atmospherical techno.
after the success of their digital releases this is our first dark beat remixes vinyl which has cuts from the very popular omen and untamed eps from label bosses deepbass & roman toletski.
on the a side we have oddity with a massive remix from mark broom. his remix of oddity is a no nonsense stripped back techno affair with a ripping synth line, the track teases you with a number off small drops before the massive atmospheric breakdown which would bring carnage on any dance floor.
on the b side we have the orb theory with a remix from edit select who seems to be able to to no wrong with his string of releases on his self named label edit select records. his remix explores the realms of atmospherical techno and has a straight up tribal feel about it, this track has been creating quite a fuss at berlins berghain during the early hours. the track has a percussive drive with rolling snares and a beautiful synth line that rises and fades throughout the track.

after the first une release (monoblock/treplec) supported by many djs like mathias kaden, chris carrier, troy pierce, laurent garnier, seth troxler, franco cinelli we are coming again with une002 by zap - >mi amigo< + inxec remix.
zap immerses us squarely in its parallel dimension, a place where stuck-up sounds and elegant percussions coexist with a martian sub bass. curious scene to expose a slightly conventional instrument in a dancing floor, the bandoneon, which chopped with a sharp knife and served with mastery, manages to transform the track into a dizzy trip and full of surrealism.
inxec achieves to transmit the feeling of no gravity based on orbiting elements, volatile basses and open field sounds. as it goes it leads us through a space trip, capable of opening a gap in any type of session, which suddenly can turn into a space odissey with dyes of psychological thriller.
support: konrad black, richie hawtin, josh wink, cesare vs disorder, adam beyer, matt star, jens zimmermann, dan drastic, alex kid, brothers vibes, pheek, alland byallo, pablo roman (bar 25), sebastian wilck (watergate), marcus (weekend), kane roth, luciano esse, jeremy p. cauldfield...

back in the day, when i discovered the music from reggie dokes and the psychostasia label i felt something similar as when i listened for the first time the music from lil louis at the end of the 80s. i mean... is this music really house? it must be because all the good househeads play and respect his stuff... perhaps just for that different and unique way of make house...

limited upfront copies on stock , release date : 2010 !!! after a few excellent remixes for radioclit or milke, some perspiring mixtapes and a handful of trakcs already playlisted by brodinski, jess & crabbe or zombie disco squad even before an official release, qoso signs his first ever ep with fool house. qoso is our wild yet clean cut child. in sync with the african and rave obsessions of his generation, he takes them in with a definite recklessness. martial coupe-decale or tropical techno, this is material to help our youth not taking dance for granted.

from the studio of scott grooves... modified suede... music that you can feel. great selection of basic house tracks in the vein of his recent scott grooves release on clone (coco brown). this is a special tribute to clean simple rhythm tracks and scott grooves shows that being one of the first techno musicians on the planet doesnt have to mean that the passion for pure dance music has to disappear after so many years in the music bizz. excellent collection of tracks that lean towards classic house music, but with that fresh simple approach of many of the new school house producers! very much recommended!

ltd one sided 10 300 copies only, first come first served! track taken from originals 4. when i was growing up, the only rock record in the house apart from the beatles was a christian rock record: straight talker by bristol band amaziah, my dad was a huge fan. my brother and i listened to it each day, as our matchbox ferraris traced intricate road networks on the patterned living room carpet. soon we knew every word, wah wah solo and squiggly synth noise off by heart. we loved it. and who could thought fifteen years later, while picking through piles of junk in the shed we found this forgotten treasure and searched for the owners and finally gave it a release on our label. so paul and jez, along with dave steel, derek elliott, richard grinter, phil williams, gerald davies and keith loring – and most of all my dad - this is for you.

four track ep by label owner aroy dee.
the first track >once u loved<, is warm and emotional, with slowly evolving strings topped with mysterious whispering vocals, reminding to older blake baxter material. 2nd track, >tears< is a fierce and sexy chicago-house influenced dancetrack, with a solid baseline, steady beats and lush keys.<br 7>first track on the b-side is >lift me high<, a downtempo dreamlike analogue house classic with haunting strings and vocals of miss salvador, merging larry heard and g-strings with an italo-disco kind of atmosphere. last on this ep is >soul spark<, an atmospheric techno track with the raw energy of early relief-releases and the psychedelia of dance mania.

the heels of love, the new milan based duo born from the joint between michele tessadri (fratelli riviera, bearfunk) and sapo (member of the love supremeproject on tirk) >two disco reprimands with an unhealthy penchant for slap bass, synths and vintage drum machines< has made a lot of noise lately with just a couple of works. after debuting here on mom with a huge remix that made its way up to beats in space and tsugis 2009 best of compilation they have had the first official release on david griffiths (the man behind jisco music) new label, under the shade. this one has sent them right into the chart of almost every known dj of the scene. >quiet please< is a slow, 110 bpm groovy piece of psychedelic disco that has its force in the balanced mix of the wobbling analog bassline, the p-funk guitars and the old flavouredsynth riffs reminescent of 1992 chicago house.

vivace is a project of stephen hitchell (cv313, echospace, intrusion) and is a unique hybrid of deep house, dub, jazz, & soul, a sort of new school/old school fusion which pays homage to chicago house heroes like chez damier & ron trent in their prescription era but with a modern twist. this project is the continuation of his previous soultek material initially featured on germanys force tracks & force inc family of labels back at the start of the century. the title track in its original form is a sub-aquatic journey through space and bass, as deep as you would come to expect from an echospace production but the sound palette has changed, shifting into a world filled with ambience and free form jazz. the use of live instrumentation & vocals are a driving force behind this project and add a depth and soul oceans deep, its like melting in sonic butter. the soultek mix is a frenzy of edits, funked up and sounds like it could be a schizophrenics take on house music, brendon moeller dives deep into soul, shifting and morphing the original into a proper late night house jam you could only imagine derrick carter or theo parrish dropping at the wee hours of the morning. the closing intrusion mix gives the original a frosty lime green haze best absorbed while inhaling, real trippy stuff. this first release has already earned countless play from francois k and in its inception (as soultek) was hailed as >jacks echo -- the future sound of chicago< by de-bug magazine, germany

pins and digits is julien dynes long awaited debut album following the critical acclaim of his first release phantom limbo ep (2007).

european percussionist and afro-urban concept leader eric thomas performs live in clubs with music partner dj celyan for more than 10 years. they recently put their creativity together to make their first vinyl. the result is a tribute to some popular brazilian rhythms such as capoiera and samba adapted for clubs and djs.

multi instrumentalist and singer maryja symone johnson and percussionist eric thomas joined together at the rhythm sticks festival in london in july 2004 to create new sounds that have been influenced by afro-caribbean origins. they have successfully performed at different concerts and festivals throughout europe. their first single >je suis music< edited by thiaba records is an adaptation of the original disco hit written in 1978 by international artist cerrone. afro-urban concept completely transformed this song by playing soca grooves with new melodies but the dance floor flavor stays alive. on side 1 is the vocal version with some extended piano, drums and percussions improvisations at the end. on side 2 the first track is an instrumental version recorded with the typical 70s sound where the drums and percussion are in evidence. the second track is more an hypnotic london drum n bass version.

self defence, a new label operating between catania/sicily and cologne/germany run by alessandro vaccaro and andy vaz proudly debuts with its first release.
on sdf-001 presenting eddie zarooks >nobody cares ep<, with remixes by lopaaz & don williams. eddiesown original mix opens understatedly, peppering its snappy low-end pulse and hovering synth chord with dub touches, before picking up the pace and activity level. subtle percussive and chordal accents appear from all corners and gradually accumulate until the track becomes a more forceful exercise in superb tech-house.

>delirous< on the a side of massimo di lena is a classic house piece in which the name is program! the public is enthusiastically kept in the clutches of this hypno track. saac gives us on the b side >crystal< - a special kind of house tool, driving and groovie.

nice price deal !!! music designed for the underground! aaron ross & matthew bandy have landed themselves once again on the seasons recordings imprint and we could not be more excited to have them both back working on this one together! last year bandy got hitched and moved from the quite city of denver to the thriving city of london to mix things up and ending up hooking up with mr. ross and the rest is magic! this is the first project these two have worked on together and lets hope for more in the future. this record was designed for the underground!!

italian duo davide zeta and claudio basile moved to london from milan in 96 & 97 respectively, they quickly achieved themselves their individual niches in londons spotlight as promoter/dj duo, moving into production with their first official releases in 2008, claudio as a solo artist, and davide as part of slimboystwo. when they finally joined forces for their first release as dzeta n basile gained lots of attention from different record labels throughout uk and europe. claudios sound comes from a progressive background and davides has more of a house feeling. the result is a unique blend of hypnotic grooves, deep vibes and percussive/house beats, which is the trade mark of their style. after just more than a year running, with dj performances in londons most important venue and 10+ singles released, the future in 2010 is looking bright.
