spätestens seit seinem meisterwerk >days to come< mit gastbeiträgen von fink oder bajka ist der mann auch über die grenzen der elektronischen musik ein garant für anspruchsvolle sounds zwischen pop, downbeats, electronic, akustik, soul und funk.

the exclusive track from fabric 48 : radio slave is now available as a single. >i dont need a cure for this< has a groove that goes on forever and >n.i.n.a.< is a clever and effective use of a vocal sample.

some ideas are just so good, they deserve a second chapter. like christian prommers drumlesson vol. 1 album, released in 2008, which featured instrumental jazz versions of legendary techno and electronic tracks including derrick mays strings of life, kraftwerks trans europe express and josh winks higher state of consciousness. critics and audiences were united in their positive reactions to the album.

return to form (take that, haters!) hits at the body repeatedly, slamming away with a lack of abandon and a new sense of protocol. major stars are known for being psychedelic rock journeymen (and journey lovin women), but of late, their rocks psych roots seem to be dyed platinum white, with a truckers cap shoved on top of the whole mess. its jukebox ready hard rock with a hallucinogenic edge, sure ? or perhaps its just the impact of their triple guitar git down, causing your head to throb with concussive force? dont worry, long time star children ? these guys still jam, but they ve got short numbers too, and wailing, roadhouse vocals sailing over the punch ups. a terrific variety, but a return to form? pffft! what form? these guys have been in plasma state forever! whatever form it takes, thats what it is. and major stars are presently shining on in white dwarf style ? compacted, but with a violent gleam.

kink - bitter sweet
kink has built up quite a reputation recently with some amazing work on rush hour alongside neville watson, and two slamming old-school-vibed remixes on liebe*detail. now we present his debut original track for the label, and >bitter sweet< really shows off his tender, heartfelt approach to house. raw, beautiful, melancholic and spine-tingling, this is modern house with a harmonious nod to the pioneers, connecting with us on deeper levels and remaining within us forever.
tom demac - draw me in
wales tom demac has already proved prolific as a producer constantly putting out genre defying, funky and ingenious hybrid house. also his debut for liebe*detail, >draw me in< takes on a strong and bass-heavy approach, with tight drums and freaky vocal-snippets melting together into a mutant jam of seismic proportions. reduced, casual and yet deadly cool, its a welcome additions to toms excellent production catalogue!

the first ever album retrospective of one of new yorks most revered of all producers, bob blank, this album traces the history of his independent studio, blank tapes, one of the citys most important creative dens during the vibrant arts scene of the mid 70s to mid 80s.

mike dehnert delivers with this 12 on his own fachwerk label. after the stir of his limited md2 release another piece of black wax with some heavy deep bass driven techno tools. 3 powerfull overwhelming tracks that are still subtile and classy. 3 tracks that slowly push the bounderies of techno rooted in the berlin traditions mixed with some detroit flavor. especially the b track is a true killer with 90s style open off beat 909 hi-hats and great tension. wont be in stock forever... dont sleep!

minor love features 14 brand new tracks from americas number 1 greatest singer!. minor love found green enlisting the talents of rodrigo from little joy and other hanger ons, like his brother joel (and look a likes joe steinbrick and greg from megapuss). the album showcases a tender side of the often arrogant and emotionally unavailable bully / singer, green. in a total state of isolation, green attempted to play nearly all the instruments on the record, due to incurable social phobias which plagued him. apparently the inspiration for this album lies in greens fatalism - you might want to take that with a pinch of salt though!

with five beat pharmacy albums and almost a dozen vinyl releases on francois ks deep space imprint, this dubby and eclectic project of brendon moeller needs no introduction.
chugging along at 120bpm, underpinned by a thick sub-dub bassline and a modulating maurizio-style synth cord arpeggio, pump is a hypnotic slap of deep smoky house with some memorable hooks to boot. swirling rhodes keyboards and a slick piano riff serve as a lovely counterpoint to the swinging funk of the hi-hat groove. forever morphing and evolving, the stready and unrelenting groove are guaranteed to keep heads bobbing and toes tapping!
the first remix here is by echospace head honcho, stephen hitchell under his intrusion guise. stripping away and re-contextualizing the key elements in the track, hitchell crafts a warehouse-style dj-tool that subtlely weaves its way into ones subconscious via a delightful psychedelic keyboard hook.
londons bearweasel takes a similar approach, except with a much more pronounced beat track superbly trippy atmosphere. a top notch dj tool thats likely to be spun worldwide.
all round a quality release with enough sensibility and character to be played for years to come.

2009 was a great year for these days records, and 2010 promises to be even better. the platform stood out for its innovative yet functional club sound and unique artwork concepts. the new year begins with a new split series under the name universal consciousness, based on the idea of connection between all things, and that all things have been coordinated, and they combine to make up the same universe. the first part is dedicated to two very different takes on spiritual, cosmic space techno. on the a-side argys >sometimes im blind< generates a long and uplifting emotional climax, which features a solo that will forever stay in your heart. the track was recorded at the end of 2008, and despite numerous offers to release the record elsewhere, nothing was finalised and the recording never saw the light of day. soon after the birth of his own label, it naturally fit the platform and seemed a perfect way to start the new year. on the flip side, sheffield born alexander ross, brings forth a cavernous techno piece awash with reverberation and spacial echos that brings a driving yet non the less emotionally captivating moment perfectly in balance with the depth of the a-side.

everybody noticed by now that the serious beats work best in the clubs still and this is one of those future classics in the making! big drums, nasty synths, driving percussion and wicked samples. big room techno from the stay up forever boys.

spirit catcher is becoming more and more a permanent member of the systematic family. after their debut e.p. last year and their contribution to the >5ysyst< project last summer, these three tracks are their latest productions on my systematic imprint. something which always impresses me a lot is how jean and tom continue todevelop their distinctive spirit catcher sound, no matter if they release on 20:20 vision, nrk, moodmusic or elsewhere. its always an awesome mixture of fluffy driving house beats, a portion of deepest darkness and freshhypnotic sounds figures! i love the way how they do install the dark organ melody at >sedona<. the organ soundspretty outta space and lets me float away once i have closed my eyes. also, the mystic mood at >future fools<generates me a goose skin, every time i hear it. (marc romboy)

our man from up north, moodymanc returns on dessous with another impressive ep brimming with tasty drum dubs, lip smacking deepness and a sizzling remix from dplay & manuel tur. the entree tonight is omlette, a slow building exploration into the depths of moodymancs percussive, synth laden studio style. growing from reduced beats into a room filling perc-dub-house beast, complete with a generous side portion of crispy drums and club-ready high production values…! its a hynpotic, uk meets berlin lesson in modern deep house and were sure youll be hungry for more. stalwart deep housers dplay and manuel tur lend us their 5 star audio-cooking skills with a pumping and dramatic remix that lifts the energy to the rafters with its phasing synth themes and stacatto bass line. guaranteed for the floors, inside and open air alike, this stunning rework combines darkness and light in the unique and addictive way only this pair know how. on the flip we find talker (drum dub. reduced tribal percussion and intense spacial effects are the name of the game here as moodymanc lays down a must-have rolling drum tool that will no doubt find its way into the bags of more creative and djs out there… and stay there forever!

big with deetron, loco dice, oliver huntemann, reboot, sascha funke, thomas schumacher, tiger stripes, manuel tur, ray okpara

a warehouse found !! just a remarkable twisted tribal / proggy house classic!! underground will live forever baby, just likes roaches, never die!!!

zoot woman present their third album. things are what they used to be has by no means strayed from the dark and atmospheric, hooky and melodic road, but what we now hear is a strikingly upfront, passionate, and mature development.the euphoric title track emphasises the want to return to how things once were in another state of mind, time and place. while this album takes you on a journey, sometimes introspective and often drenched in desire, each track is unique. from the pulsing hook line of we wont break, feeding an addiction to emotional melody in lonely by your side and more than ever, then to be shaken up by the pounding stadium electro of witness.

new kid on the block jacob korn (dresden, germany yall!) convinced sometime somewhere in toronto with a hearty live set that took a route over hip hop, down tempo house and all kinds of funkiness until it peaked with the disco-house-craze >i like the sun (but not on leds)<. much to the delight of a present running back a&r. hands were shook and it took only 2 and a half years until the test pressing arrived. supplemented with the slow burning >selene< that really gets you the second time around, prevents the typical mistakes current deep house likes to make (at least, we think so) and is the sun gods sister, the a-side is good to go. flip the script to see prins thomas in a good temper, rolling out the red carpet with one of his tried and tested remixes. >i like the sun< piles up to 13 minutes of true diskomiks glory including drums that go on forever (bonus beats, yall!) and some eye-cue-markers for those of you who are deaf already. well, swell

after almost 2 years without publishing new material. the label properproud reappears with this ep limited to 250 copies. the owners of the label santi and roger (strange connection) have worked very hard to remind everyone with this record that the electro-techno and ebm will not die ever! this time, properproud back with more force and with the intention of staying forever. closing mouths includes 4 tracks of 4 major artists and the name isn t coincidental. it s time to shut many mouths that don t rely on this kind of music the first one closing mouths (a1) has been signed by the owners of the label (strange connection) is the first time published in properproud. a track of pure ebm, dark and evil but with great force and which has received great support from artists like angel molina and dave clarke who has played several times in his white noise radio show. the second one hurt me (a2) has been signed by jonathann cast in collaboration with the voices of drey. after publishing in dancefloor killers come to properproud and do it in a forceful and dark track that can move any dance floor. bluntly electro-techno and without mercy! on b side, we find 2 of the best signings he has made during that properproud parentheses. in the first cut (b1) adriano canzian, currently one of the most bizarre techno artists, with halim the dream shows because david carretta and dj hell is set in it. a brutal track, direct and intended to enjoy it in a club. dave clarke has supported it without hesitation. and to finish off the ep, ruben montesco (b2), after his passage through lasergun and other labels turn to properproud to demonstrate in madrid that also makes good techno and ebm. insomniac s red room is a dark track, evil but with a lot of energy and a perfect voice. rubÚn besides being a great friend and supporter of properproud is undoubtedly one of the best producers of this style at national level. 4 tracks that shape a piece of craft for lovers of brazen sounds and is the first of a series of 12 inch that will see the light soon and will be limited to 250 copies. properproud is back .... stop the minimal. use your brain!

moxie say: we got hipped to the life of a party last year during a breaking contest in nyc, one of those old school ones in the bronx. it was pure ecstasy! so we extended the good part, so the trip would last longer. the idea was to combine party life with two other breakers tracks to form a steppers package and then mj died... browsing back through his catalogue we were reminded of two other sweet 70s tracks: the funky hum along and dance and the smoother, but dangerously infective let me show you (the way to go). the result is moxies tribute to mj. may he be with us forever. thank you for the inspiration and joy you gave us.
