ltd backstock !!! label chief and king of nyc late night mythology, francois k returns with a bit of his patented deep space madness. starting with a tempo reminiscent of a 45 played at 33 1/3, a delicate plucked bell-synth bathed in a medium hall reverb leaves ethereal impressions and late night energy. as the melody drops a minor third, another enchanting counter melody joins the mix and adds a rather divine legato styling. after the lead fades out, a percussive interlude full of syncopated noise hits develops: leaving room for a break that reintroduces the main vibe and instills a sense of resolution. the flip carries a remix from quiet village, who has been starting deep space nights with positively solid performances. taking a more club-hyped approach, this rework pounds forward with a massive rumbling kick drum and an underlying noise wash. the main lead gets some serious filter and delay treatment making for a more progressive drive and a versatile dancefloor hook. tweaking things a bit at the break, the melody morphs into a sort of latin-minded groove with portamento glides, edited accents and sharper hits. still keeping the passion and charm alive, the new demise accents francoiss tasteful tune while boasting contemporary excitement

early support by richie hawtin, mihalis safras, someone else, andreas henneberg, pierce... farbton records are really pushing forward in the first quarter of 2009. with the stupidisco ep from mr. dynamite they got an excellent 4 tracker with the goal to stir up your crowd. incl. great remixes by alex_q , marcus schmidt and double c !

phantasma one is the first 12?,, of our second compilation, featuring”clapper” by tobias. and efdemin s “hope”. we are astonished and thrilled this split ep doesn t even sound like one but is of beautiful consistence and adequacy. “clapper” hypnotizes from the first second with a straight forward percussion rhythm which curls inescapable upwards even in the mind of an inattentive listener, pushing ahead with classic machine drums driven with a both glaring and harsh attitude. the crystal surface of efdemin s “hope” is woven into a plait of swelling basses and enriched with extensive spins of snare rolls and precious carpets of highlighted chords which seems to rise out of the drums which carry the whole track with slick efficiency. without a doubt this vinyl will be in every record case for a long time. grab your copy as long as there are some.

recorded at the bands own illegal combatant studios and the world renowned blasting room in ft. collins colorado, supporting caste is the fifth full length release from winnipegs political punks propagandhi. crafted in collaboration with bill stevenson (black flag, descendents, zeke, 7 seconds), this twelve song collection of boundless power and depth is a 50.000 watt forward thinking tip of the hat to giants such as voivod, rush, snfu, sacrifice, razor and guilt parade, that have gone before them. legendary and unrepentant residents of humankinds ideological peanut gallery, propagandhi does not disappoint with supporting caste, launching crude rockets into the heart of the prevailing order with meditations that range in focus from the humane slaughter and consumption of non vegans in an elaborate 18 course banquet (with wine pairings) to the apparent confusion of turning on the tv to watch a simple hockey game and having to wonder whether or not the nazis actually lost the war after all. supporting caste: 12 new laments, reveries and extrapolations from 4 visibly aging prairie skids who still cannot believe that of all the gin joints in all the galaxies in all the universes, they had to be born on.

it s round #7 for gecko and bowman brings the beats. not just straight-forward techno, but straight-forward blues, too!

complex kicks off with some history and technology - always forward pushing, sometimes funky and surprising.

under his raudive alias, oliver ho has created a trademark blend of future forward house and techno that has been the sound to some of the greatest moments on our favourite dancefloors over the last couple of months. recently labels like cocoon, drumcode and pokerflat were blessed to release superb pieces by raudive and he created enthusiasm all accross the board from ricardo villalobos to sven väth. for his macro debut he moved a step further: the cone ep with its 3 cuts of twisted house brings some serious madness to the club: raudive’s signature beats get a strong jazz infusion with bits of saxophone and an out-of-control piano spinning around the pumping bassline. crazy all the way while delivering a maximum of dancefloor appeal.

olmeto’s first release of 2009 takes the flamenco bull by the horns and drops a track of such spanish influence, you’ll think you’re at las ventas! señor bushwackas ‘dromederie’ neatly entangles beautifully mournful spanish guitars, passionate feet stomping flamenco dancers with modern glitches to create a seriously ferocious tune with an underlying feeling of treachery. the percussive elements embroiled in the final three minutes (specially edited as a dj tool for the creative amongst you) are so unique, the reaction evoked on any primed and ready dancefloor has to be seen to be believed…it’s a tune you’re not going to forget in a hurry! side two, ‘the blues’ takes an altogether slower, more winding approach but is sure to draw you in from the off. whilst we are reminded ‘this is the blues’, rising melodies and catchy loops reminiscent of grooving disco transport you to a sleazy den of dance iniquity. marking the twentieth release on layo & bushwacka’s olmeto imprint, ‘dromederie’ & ‘the blues’ are a stunning representation of the forward thinking dance music this label has to offer. not to be ignored.

a first class house tune with melodic synths and a warm bassline. the original mix is fascinating with a catchy hook and hypnotising vocals based on a cool driving groove. tried and tested a hundred times at his club dates, this track promises to fill up the dance floor. on a special club date when the boogie pimps heard a first demo of yostar! they were immediately thrilled and directly wanted to do a remix. so we can look forward to a perfect remix package completed by a crazy techie christian fischer remix

animal language is a new label from mason. having burst onto the scene with their groundbreaking ‘exceeder’, a tune that went on to destroying dance floors and tearing it up the charts in 2006, the foundations have been set for the dutch pairing of iason and coen to create a platform for more forward-thinking music. the mason sound follows a simple method. their understanding of melody and a canny ability to fuses it with technological know-how, sheer musicianship and dance floor savvy creates dance music for the thinking man, but not so clever to be alienating and dull

on rodz konez #7 steve bailey teams up with himself when his alter ego makaton meets his alias lift syndrome. side a is dedicated to straight forward techno, while the flip is up to electroid experimentations.

catchy minimal.. jatoa002 is the second release from the danish label jatounit. binar sendentar is a mellow straight forward track smothered in glitches and industrial mishaps. accompanied by a female voice - a constant reminder that it is all numbers. beautiful staircase is an orgy of pretzel popping, toy car bashing and wrench crashing glitchy pads. accompanied by harmonica stabs. suddenly a trancy pad surrounds you and lifts you up and literately drops you in a hole of obscurity and insane analog bastardism.

fast forward 2008. may be later bridges sound and mood from the summery and sublime to the dark and throbbing. while mars cello floats and warms, burdelia chugs somewhere between chicago and early nyc house. fade me in zips along with furious kink and dubious vox by dinkys longtime friend jorge gonzalez. seven 2 seven, when aimed at 8am berlin ravers, massive freak outs ensue. she is moving features minimal vocalist extraordinaire big bully, together they attain that vital equilibrium of naughty and nice. the album closes with mind, an electronic fusion moving, looming, eerie, and reassuring. may be later is an open door to ms. alejandra iglesias development exposing the path, connections, and influences that brought her here. the beach, nyc underground in all its flavors, berlin, the stage, detroit, electronic waves from all directions, chicago, mega-clubs, it is all here and it is all her own!! re-release !!

bekeschus is a new project in eintakts artist portfolio. the brothers benjamin and sander present here their first release called >dieser moment<. this ep is a combination of moody electronic styles containing 4 tracks floating between deep, dub, and dirty. the songs connect modern music-to-the-floor with timeless sounds and arrangements that both touch inside and move forward. sound inspirations derive from numerous movements of pre and post millennium artificial sound scapes. especially, early club sessions in berlin since 2000 shaped the brothers view and interpretation of the input and output of electronic culture. >dieser moment< stands for an audiophile time document of their development, and at the same time awareness of >this moment<.in the year 2000 the brothers started to engage their selves in djing...

ruede hagelsteins the modest theme has proven to be one of souvenirs most provocative releases so far. released in the summer, the tracks dramatic horn hook is so epic it belongs in a science fiction film and as a piece of forward thinking techno, it ranks among one of souvenirs best. now the track is back with a remix from souvenir spearheads tiefschwarz alongside a new track from berlin based ruede. semikolon is another dark and dubby deep tech-housy outing for ruede that begins with a dramatic spoken word by naneci and ominous organ stabs. as the track progresses it takes on a chicago house vibe re-imagined at 10am in the panorama bar. an urgent bell begins to ring through the track raising the tension as the vocal intones a surreal chant before giving way to huge synth stabs that lead the track into a slow motion emotional explosion. just when things can get any more hectic the crescendo sinks to silence compressing the energy before the beats emerge back in their earlier deep house guise. ali and bast schwarz take their turn at remixing the modest theme fresh from their incendiary remix of emad kamandians kamanche for souvenir 012. the signature dramatic horn riff remains albeit injected with new percussion lending the track a tough tech house appeal that places it within the context of 2008s underground house sound. both tracks are another addition to souvenirs impressive collection of music aimed at the head just as much as they are at the heart and feet.
