if you will permit me to get a little honors english on yall, classical scholar sir richard livingstone once stated that >our danger is not too few, but too many options ... to be puzzled by innumerable alternatives.< say what? well, take flo ridas predicament on new david guetta single where dem girls at: upon stepping into the club, so many fly females catch his eye simultaneously that he finds himself incapable of deciding where to begin. as hes struggling to resolve this deadlock over the veteran djs stark synths and four-on-the-floor percussion, an especially alluring specimen swoops in to make the decision for him - not only is she gonna kick it with him, but shell bring her equally fly friends along for the ride. playing the woman in question, young money heavy-hitter nicki minaj attacks the beat as only she can, dropping what may well be her most off-the-wall guest 16 since monster. so, readers, this dancefloor-scorcher + remixes on this vinyl will whet your appetite for more body-moving bangers, no doubt about that

played by luciano, reboot, richie hawtin, karotte, dj w!ld, brothers vibe, guillaume, gorge, andree hommen.. now the german based guy steffen deux (8bit / air london) comes with his debute at brise records. four amazing tracks between dub, deephouse and techhouse. pure quality stuff

his debut four track ep highlights his individual approach to song writing with the gorgeous, deep and moody >i am machinery<, a fitting title for a track where the human voice integrates seamlessly into the analogue electronics of the machines. >pointers’ changes the mood and aims at the dancefloor, with strings and synths fully indebted to detroit techno, but with a constant human touch from his jazzy scat cutting in and out of the heavy groove. >some days< has the biggest sound on the ep with multiple vocal tracks layering over the crisp drums and pulsating synths. hes combined his keen ear for melody and a firm grasp of the dancefloor for this track, making it many djs favourite on the ep due to a club friendly structure, yet striking originality. >set myself on fire< closes the ep at a mellow tempo, and can easily hypnotise the listener with its repetitive vocals, haunting whistles and sleazy beats. this is only for the beginning for debukas, these four tracks are just an introduction to one of the finest talents from the uk electronic underground

the moment the needle drops on bas mooys >krull<, you know you are up for something special: one of those classic tracks that signpost a style, a timeless number that seizes the flavour of the here and now and elevates it somewhere ethereally higher - in this case booty-swinging, infectiously swinging, grinding, building, unhomogenized techno.
in his remix audio injection minimalizes the assault and its reinvented as a soaring detroit acid grumbler. then gayle san & dj hi-shock propel themselves right into the darker depths of the original version and reboot all the right parts to make it a flanged, spacey, at times relentless sci-fi tech stomper.finally ortin cam reconfigures >krull< as slick, motorized electronic dancefloor mayhem remiscent of some of the sativae outings in the early 90s by neil landstrumm and tobias schmidt.limited first press released on solid white colored vinyl.

ground loops ampersand (i) is a release exploring contemporary techno by some of technos best contemporaries. the original fuses old school ideals with modern production techniques to create a floor friendly, groove oriented track that manages to maintain a sense of purpose and emotion. on remix duties are lucy (stroboscopic artefacts) who produces a seminal remix taking on the atmospherics of the original and building upon that to create a space and tension we have all come to know and love of his productions. samuli kemppi (ostgut ton, mote-evolver) who delivers a deep slice of dubby detroit influenced funk, perfect for that back room set and once again ignites the sound of that transatlantic relationship. the final remix comes from advanced human (aka. dj hi-shock), who instead focuses on the energy and emotion of the original and twists it into peak time material. already spun and fully supported by luke slater, james ruskin, donor/truss, damon wild, tommy four seven, audio injection, markus suckut, chris finke, go hiyama or raiz to name a few.

faze action maintain their fine run of form in 2011 with this four tracker from the shack, aka guy williams and dan williams (not related!) both have been active in dance music from the early 90s, with guy holding dj residencies at clubs such as the ministry of sound and turnmills during their pomp while dan williams aka d.r.w carved a career as a singer/songwriter. together as the shack they have absolutely nailed it with >touch it<, a sleazy-does-it italo peak time jam. arpeggiated synth lines, catchy vocal hooks and instant bassline work in jotous unison with some cowbell carnage. the 12 inch comes replete with a dub version and boogie influence faze action remix. rounding off the release is another original cut, namely >dont stop, in which tough drums combine with a late night vocal intoning the track title to bewitching effect. this shack attack has already found its way into the record bags of pete herbert and severino - expect it to be in many more come summer s end.

yam who?s ism label come through with a four track slice of disco centric futurism, featuring the man yam himself alongside pbr streetgang and ron basejam. its the latter who takes the lead with a remix of alenas >changes< that sees her sultry vocal teased by a most excellent of analogue synth leads that splurges brilliantly across the crisp mid tempo chug. yam who? teams up with vocalist natasha watts for the similarly bottom heavy bump of >i m in love< which has a certain warehouse appeal to it. on the flip, pbr pay respect to the godfather of soul james brown with the gritty flex of >j2thab< with the sadly departed mr brown strangely sounding at times like he wants to go to tesco. we always took him for a waitrose man, but regardless this is probably the track you will reach for most! finally brothers young do their thing to a trammps classic, with little more than the bassline retained.

shadow ray is best known in house music circles as the co-producer of the oasis 1, 13, 13 1/2 and 14 releases with omar s, although he is also well known to the ryan correctional facility for more nefarious reasons. the detroit-based producer has spent the past four years at ryan earning not only a hard knocked life but a trade in sound engineering. that was until alex smith (aka omar s) made a presentation to the facility s parole board to commission a remix of his recent hit >heres your trance now dance< as part of rays work release program! rumour has it the parole board was inhabited by at least one old school house head, and we re delighted to see alexs idea come to fruition, with shadow ray really nailing it with this remix. staying true to original s shimmering melody, ray opts to bolster the bottom end with a raw bassline that creates a nice, fat rolling groove
