die sterne - one of the most profilic and long standing german indie rock bands, being around for nearly 20 years, have teamed up with gomma label boss and producer of munk mathias modica for a new and fresh e.p... der riss features 3 rhythm driven disco pop numbers that will keep the indie disco crowd dancing for the months to come!

who are these guys behind the pseudonyms? good guy mikesh and filburt are two music lovers… full stop! two independent acts that met in leipzig and began to merge their musical creative capacities two years ago. a convolution of disco, pop and house, propagating one of leipzigs most promising collaborative developments. good guy mikesh has haunted leipzigs contemporary underground for a long time. from the beginning of his musical career, his singles have signified an eclectic mix of pop, soul and disco. filburt - dj, record store owner and leipzig club scene veteran, was consequently good guy mikeshs best possible accomplice in the mission to break fresh ground. this mixture of soul, disco and house-pop is it, charged by the duos certain something - an energy sought for not only in this town, but throughout the whole scene. someone told me, their latest single, has been causing an outbreak of contagious enthusiasm in the scene since its release on permanent vacation this summer. we are proud to release this fine ep, which comes with a remix by one of our uk favorites: mark e !

david durango lands a fresh offering on dessous with a smooth, colourful and complex ep refl ecting upon the modern house movement. fresh from a string of highly praised releases on pokerflat, the perfect day ep really shows off davids passionate and deep musical abilities, and is backed up by a contemplative and dubbed out remix by matthias meyer. lead track‚ perfect day blends durangos trademark complex melodic signatures, amongst lush washes of euphoric synth textures, tight and tricky beats and innovative sound design. a stepping bassline underpins the moody and uplifting journey into the deep blue beyond, as an intertwining narrative of building elements light the way. wonderful stuff for the night or indeed the day. well known for his extended, percussive trips and bombs on hamburgs liebe* detail imprint, riser and climber matthias meyer re-works perfect day into a drifting, melancholic afterhours bomb.

our jazzy multi instrumentalist, dewalta a.k.a. david koch, returns to vakant with another popping fresh release, as earnestly house as house can get. since his first vakant release in 2008 (va021 salgaro/farina) davids music has taken him around the world in black largely covering our earths northern and southern hemispheres. side a is graced by move yo sitting as close to late 1990s baby ford as one can get without a time machine and personal guide to londons underground. david somehow owns this genre while still making it distinctly his. b1 night shade keeps the housey goose bumps going with a drier and more direct approach. cheeky bleeps and chunky bass balance dark spacey vocals to land the track somewhere between night and day. >angels trumpet< at the b2 position closes this stellar ep out with a track that again borrows from the genre, but continues way beyond its standards with melodic elements that push and pull you in multiple directions resulting in no less than dance floor catharsis.

next level! sonntagskind delievers two fresh and clubfriendly tracks between minimal and chanson. incl. remixes by spedro (extrasmart / hoehenregler) and howard & stereo (karatemusik)!

aux-rec is being launched by airdrop records as an offshoot label designed with a specific mission in mind: to look back and pay tribute. aux-rec surveys musical history looking for those inspiring pieces of music (famous or forgotten) that carry a very distinctive groove and identity, and that offer the potential to be revisited in an ingenious contemporary way. at airdrop, we love music of all ages and of many genres! we feel aux-rec is a way for our artists and for us to pay our due respects to the origins and the evolution of contemporary dance music.
the existing airdrop roster of artists will be invited to contribute to aux-rec, but different artists will also be uncovered specifically for this project. off to a fresh start, franco cinelli and club rayo (a duo composed by rafael sorol and pablo terreil) engrave their long-time friendship on this record. franco cinellis first productions were released on the duos imprint club rayo disquets at the beginning of the millenium. the club rayo collective has been extremely active in the local argentinean scene for more than twelve years now.
going back to one of music historys greatest classics, >fever<, franco cinelli and club rayo bring their own interpretations to a theme that has known as many versions than people taking a sing at it in the shower! using ella fitzgeralds and elvis presleys voices, club rayo create repsectively the fitzgerald mix - a rocking dancefloor jam looping ellas fantastic voice bringing it to a culmination - and the king dub - a 118 bpm groove punctuated by elvis low-pitched and resonant tone. cuerdas is a short guitar instrumantal rendition of the fever theme. on his remix, franco cinelli creates a 10 minutes drum symphony, especially designed for the post-climatic hours. both producers kept in mind ellas famous quote when undertaking this great enterprise: >i stole everything i ever heard, but mostly i stole from the horns.<
the following releases on aux-rec will also be in the form of bootlegs, edits, re-works or samples (you name it). they will bring back memories to your heads and mostly the groove to your feet. to be true to its mission of a vintage exploration, aux-rec will be releasing exclusively on vinyl, in the tradition of the essential music format of the 20th century. there will be no digital releases at aux-rec. in the pipeline are soul claps edit of laid backs >bakerman< as well as le loups version of sheila es >a love bizarre<, produced by prince.

their debut ep comes on alphahouse records, and is turning heads as a late-night monster. need a mental picture? imagine classic g-man, strobe lights, smoke machines, and a cavernous berghain style freak show. the duo slyly manage to push the tracks in many directions, looking back to a time before ableton-warped bootlegs and cheap production techniques, all the while maintaining a standard that feels fresh and experimental. some of us are searching for more. with this record, we approach closer to that groove than ever.

so the story goes: fresh from releasing his debut 12inch as hunch for john dalys brilliant feel music hunee steps up with this fine double header. i ve been receiving a bunch of lovely tracks since i first met hunee a few years ago in berlin. some of these will soon materialize in a proper album but to start us off, heres brother and babel two slow grinding chuggers of the highest orders, stuck somewhere between an tropical island bar... and spaaaayaaaaayyaaaaaayyyaaaacccccceeee!!!!!!! peas.... in the middle east, thomas(oslo, 7th of august 2009)

bristol based dj & producer wedge comes with a fresh take on the dubstep sound with the debut release on his new label if symptoms persist!!!

it was only a short time ago when these 2 young up and comers made their respective debuts on our label and in the few months between then and now, they have gone on to skyrocket up through the ranks, conquering dancefloors, charts and dj crates-while becoming household names synonymous with quality and consistency.
florian kruse and nils nürnberg need very little introduction these days but for those that have been asleep or living under a rock, a good start would be to check their recent output on fine labels such as nrk, om, moodmusic, dessous and our very own dieb, to name a very select few. their first combined effort on the label has resulted in the >suerte ep<, a tight collection of deep as hell, tech infused house numbers heavily characterized by their attention to groove and addictive, seductive chord progressions that have become a hallmark of their production prowess.
to add some spice to an already sterling and stylized package, we have enlisted our good friend (and also mood music alumnus) alexander maier, to remix the titular >suerte< where he adds his considerable musical vocabulary to the proceedings, peppering a very tasty arrangement with piano chord stabs and throbbing basslines resulting in a gorgeous, summery house re-interpretation that has to be heard to be believed!
as if this werent enough, fresh from an impressive debut on nils and florians save room records we have been lucky enough to secure a percussion led, funk infused remix of >achieving balance< from bright new boys on the block io who round things off nicely and add another dimension to the >suerte ep<.

played by len faki, joris voorn, secret cinema, housemeister , funk d void, steve rachmad... alexander kowalski is back! after more than a year of not bringing out any new releases and leaving the >different< label, the first 12inch is now to appear on his own label >damage music berlin<, dmb for short. >the heat of the night< clearly takes the former kanzleramt flagship back to its original deep sound. this energy-laden dub-techno number is sure to make the dancers hearts beat faster, and to make them sweat - in the heat of the night... >its been a long way< is a typical pushy kowalski techno track that dares the tightrope walk between rolling basses and melancholic soundscapes. as for >dont judge me (just because i like the rave)<, the name says it all! this track is one of the smashers in the current kowalski live sets and has already taken apart a number of clubs in the process. alexander kowalski decided to found a label of his own primarily to release his own tracks that he has either tried and tested as part of his live sets or fresh ideas straight from his studio. in time, he also wants to provide a platform for other artists to publish their music. time to damage!

swinging and jackin chicago house tracks - surefire hip shakin bizz!!! cant afford to miss this...

david keno is going for the trifecta with feast, his 3rd kindisch release of the year. following on from his excellent label debut discoteca, and his storming tout le temps collaboration with jaxson, keno is back with the 3-track smorgasbord that is feast. starting off his career with a number of releases for on corrado izos 1220 label, david keno has since cut his teeth with morris audio citysport edition and frankie rec, and has honed his sound into a fresh combination of masterfully constructed beats, perfectly pitched percussive elements and infectious melodies… all the right elements for dancefloor devestation! feast shows david keno taking a leaf out of the book of us westcoast house pioneers, and giving the sound a new perspective. >bonito< opens with a hint of cheeky latin swing and demi-percussion, before breaking into a tough jacking beat and boompty house bassline. a lone, melancholy string sample in the second half define the track by injecting a touch of unexpected quirkiness into the mix. keeping the momentum going is >808<, a slightly deeper affair based on a throbbing, undulating bassline and conga-led percussion

it s time to present maik s first ep on his label niveous records. after his releases on poker flat and karmarouge, he is back with a pack of fresh tunes for your club and home listening sound system. enjoy! early support by 2000 and one, someone else, simon baker, double d, alex niggemann, liapin, robert dietz,thomas schuhmacher, shur-i-kahn, nic fanculli, matthias meyer...

the mysterious fat camp collective put down the hi energy, low calorie bars for a minute to take a leisurely stroll down memory lane with this 4 pack of high quality edits for your dancefloor workout ! anorak 004 is another sterling selection, and includes the much blogged about and honestly quite spectacular heavyweight paisley park funk-out of ‘100mph’ by mazerati - worth the price of entry alone, not forgetting the 3 other underground funk, disco & soul hits plucked from obscurity, given a shave and a haircut and served up all nice, fresh and plump for your continued listening pleasure

home taping is killing music is a fresh new imprint that is all about a return to house music. producer of the moment the revenge (instruments of rapture/jisco music) kicks things off for the label in fine style with the stunning >forever in their debt<. a homage to the house producers that have influenced them and the artists whose samples have continued to drive house music forward expertly channeling the spirit of early chicago warehouse music, but with a modern production twist that truly captures that classic sound, but packs enough punch to wipe the floor with most of its peers. on the flip, maverick producer and dj red rack em (tirk/untracked/deep freeze) takes the track on a road trip to detroit, and produces a deep, moody and atmospheric version which brings to mind the work of pepe bradock and theo parrish. two sides, two flavours. both 100% house

fresh disco / house sounds with a splash of italo disco. another classic remodeled by the boys and with extra remixes by albin myers and jewelz

in form and informed moves from the heavy artillery imprint. fresh off the back of a storming garage match up with el b for the soul motive crew, labelhead rossi b and long term cohort luca smack it around some more with some utterly deranged bassline power manoeuvres, completely stripping off any lactic sounds sometimes associated with that scene, all leaving a pristine and utterly rampant rhythm mastery on show. i.d drops a sensual garage mover which delivers equal parts ruffage and sensuality with just the right amount of piquancy for club play, really delicious stuff . 501 runs the dances ragged with a banging rave-ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied dances ragged with a banging rave ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied and complete package from this fine bristol label.

nice price deal !!! a hugely influential figure in the french techno scene for the last 15 years, lady b (aka bruno gauthier) brings his acid house flavors to curfew. a child of detroit techno and chicago house bruno has released on some of the most significant record labels in electronic music history including luke solomons and derrick carters re-launched classic recordings, f communications, dj gigolo, boys noise, citizen records, and the hackers good life label.
le fil du razoir (the razors edge in english) brings a classic techno vibe up to date via a dose of wobbly acid house. the result is a no-nonsense, high impact fusion of spitting beats, evil sub-bass and sharp jacking strings. big…
fresh from a chart-topping ep for sci+tec, reset robot brings his sound-of-now to curfew. pacing out the track to allow a swaying funk to percolate the off-kilter drone of the original the result is an edgy, melodic tech house groove.
kapat sees lady b combine bubbling 80s synth pop melodies with heavy rolling bass and drawn out dramatic strings to create a full-force floor grabbing blend of old and new. timeless, energetic, emotive underground music.

another fresh face for the vastness we like to call minimal techno. a few months ago, javier logares tracks for bar 25s little sub-sister bar25digital went down a storm, so it was about time to introduce his music to the vinyl world of bar 25.
>elastic doll< is a cheeky bouncing piece of minimal techno with a marching bassline and a handful of dancing bleeps at all the right places. this elastic doll will lure you right into afterhour debauchery.
on >the wrong clue< javier dims the lights and sets a more haunting tone with an eerie synth-melody and bleeps, that slowly but surely crawl up your spine. seriously tripping stuff this is.

summer may be coming to an end, but south of the equator spring is springing with the fresh new sounds of emerson todd. making his get physical debut, this rising talent caps off a stellar 12 months with 3 tracks of funkladen and infectious house. a new talent on the international scene, emerson todd has been making a name for himself for over 10 years in the southern hemisphere. starting out in nz as one half of house of downtown – who produced 2 full length albums and a film score – todd relocated to australia in 2003 and shifted his focus towards audio engineering, spending years afterwards travelling back and forth between the 2 countries for his various dj residencies and studio commitments.

released in 1980 this italo gem has more recently become a huge collectors item worldwide due to its incredibly hard to find status (ú100 ebay / discogs). this album was the prototype for the whole italo sound, with the majority of it written in 1979, but was only a minor hit in its time and not much is now known about the band. the album spawned two singles gipsy and back to heaven but is full of off kilter disco classics such as mister luck and down to the disco. dusted down and remastered this album has really stood the test of time and given a fresh lease of life its bound to find a whole host of new fans worldwide.

heavy playes by ellen allien (charts pos #3), sven vaeth, richie hawtin, dj t ... we are very happy to present this new and fresh style of ahmet sisman s notorious sound! supported by grand master flash, run dmc, africa islam and eddie murphy!!

phil kieran has been in the upper echelons of the electronic music game for more than a decade, but is only now releasing his debut album under his own name. known for rocking clubs and releasing a string of killer twelves, belfast-based phil has hooked up with german powerhouse cocoon in recent times. sven väths label is now about to release shh, a groundbreaking piece of work that will undoubtedly gain phil plaudits across the board. shh seems to not only reference every sound phil has ever loved in music, but is formulated in a completely fresh and futuristic way. listen carefully and you can detect elements of dub reggae, old hardcore like lfo, hip-hop, early 90s electronica such as autechre/black dog and other warp staples, as well as the futuristic techno that phil excels in. for the album phil went back to old sound lab recordings dating back to the 1950s and 60s. utilising some of these sounds in the initial construction, he built up tracks using a combination of old samples sourced from original and weird places and some live new instrumentation as well. there are live drums, some electric / acoustic/ bass guitar and live keyboard playing as well as some choice guest vocalists.

a fresh new collaboration with some top notch house tracks on this split release. agnes probably needs no introduction after his recent release on plak and running his own sthmllaudio, and he delivers all quality. big revelation on this 12 is jonny white with his tikkun olam... already a office favorite here at clone... we keep playing this over and over... somehow reminds of old deeper house tracks by mr fingers (athmosphere and basslines) but with modern productions skills. killer track and killer split release with some forward thinking house music thats embracing the future, without forgetting the past! recommended!

alex ridha aka boys noize is, along peers erol alkan and justice, part of a new mongrel breed of techno / electronica artist with a maverick bent and solid vision, beaming a myriad of influences from the past through a prism to create something fresh, new and exciting. founding his own imprint boysnoize records (bnr) in 2005 he achieved to establish his very own sound. alex released the first boys noize album “oi oi oi” in 2007 on bnr which featured febrile club favourites like “& down and “lava lava” and also more soulful techno tracks like “shine shine” or what many regard as one of his finest works, his remix of feist’s “my moon, my man”. official remixes for the likes of depeche mode, snoop dogg, justice, late of the pier, his latest work for royksopp, highly regarded dj mix compilations (bugged out! / i love techno) as well as productions for black eyed peas and canadian genius gonzales proved how versatile he could be. now boys noize presents his second longplayer as a lim.ed on vinyl instead of following the commercial path after the unexpected success of “oi oi oi”, boys noize passed on any big name featuring, the great pop approach or feeding trends. keeping it real, “power” starts where “oi oi oi” has ended and shows the freshest of electronica and techno music.

the word >detroit< is one that is used far too often in todayÆs techno realm. it seems that as soon as someone puts a pad over the top of a 4x4 kick drum they have the right to file their music under >detroit techno<. soà when tracks like this arrive in your inbox with no accompanying information, well itÆs a breath of fresh air to say the least. these four tracks by new boy mick welch truly capture the essence of detroit, bringing to mind the classic works by derrick may, kenny larkin and even hints of influences a little closer to home, b12, redcell, kirk degiorgio and the rest of the applied rhythmic technology crew for example. highly recommended.

mechanism aka denver mccarthy is one of the first true pioneers of industrial tekno. these 3 trax have all been re-mastered for a fresh new sound, and have been a big influence on tekno & industrial hardcore. hard edge drums, trippy arrangement & live recordings of real life organic sounds make this music timeless & relevant today.

summer is still with us! the globox 015 is a fantastic release from minimorph, fresh techouse for trendy dancefloors, a groovy and deeper rework from gummish to complete the package!

episode 7 of the light with special guests from greece - this hellenic duo deliver this time a powerfull ep with lots of energy and brilliant fresh ideas - incl a.paul remix!

marcus homm provides the starting point with “transposer“: funky, impulsive and peppered with unusual sounds. next up, tom clark takes the helm with “ultimo” and steers a course towards the dancefloor peaktime! on the flip, asem shama and demir & seymen splash out. asem’s “erato“ rocks in exhilarating fashion, and the fresh new highgrade lads demir & seymen provide rolling percussion and powerful orchestral stabs on “ethnos“, which really give the dancefloor some legs.

more killer wirdo sounds edits and re-works from the codek possee! great tracks and tools for maximum floor effect with the right hint of sense of humour.

andré decided spontaneously to record fresh material especially for the label, more than 6 months before our fi rst release. this says a lot about the common trust that was born that day, much before the hype surrounding the man. the result of this saw the light some weeks later in the form of vehemence of silence, a track of indeniable power which breathes long years of djing & berlin afterhours as much as uncovering close impressions of andré’s emotional outcome. this is what made me feel that track like a whisper to my body & soul and what makes me so proud to release it today… more than 10 months down the line, andré improved it, tested it on the fl oor till a fi nal club listening session in the middle of the berghain dancefl oor where we both knew it was ready to be shared… this special track needed of course outstanding alternative perspectives and it didnt take me long to propose my old friend danilo plessow amongst andrés favorites to give it his magic : motor city drum ensembles version translates an unexpected techno jam reminiscent of the best early soma days. the ep is completed by a second original called dark edge, a sophisticated & raw deep house joint. a&r and words by dairmount

nice price deal !!! the techhouse tune peeboy is a smashing & fresh club tune and as sure a floor filler for the more underground oriented djs as get back down will be for a wider audience: its almost symphonic part, in combination with the wee vocal sample, make great hook and a big big tune!!

fresh 2010 big room house remake of dominicas monsterhit. put something warm on, david guetta!

lessizmore continues with a striking fresh release from its new darker serie noire imprint. kane roth is working towards a mix of psycho-reactive minimal techno while tim xavier redefines kama sutra with playful bass lines.
kane s kama sutra is focused on a melodic audion-like gimmick. the track is remarkable by the use of typically pitched down vocals and massive kicks, it viciously hooks the listener.
yearning begins with strange and dark sounds but after three minutes holds the line with simple yet magnificent synth layers. in this track, kane is close to robag wruhme s delicate vision of techno music.
the remix of kama sutra constantly thumbs our nose at. tim xavier arrangements are mapped out with calculated intent, he pushes the track into a brilliant fun and never-ending roller coaster.

roxour is proud to present fresh music from r-04, a very talented mid 20 boy from downtown tokyo. for r 04 things started about 10 years ago when testing out his first syntheziser. from japanese fascination of composing and living game music soon he was fascinated by the magic of detroit techno. aside from that, he plays on the grand piano with that jazzy - and funkyness of an early stevie wonder. r-04s music is reflecting the city where he comes from. he says many tall inorganic buildings and night scene always inspire me. his first official release gazing at the moon is somewhere between jazz and techno. its a kind of tribute to the so called chu shu no meigetsu convention, the autumn time in japan, when no one can ignore the beauty of the big shiny full moon. also i composed this track meaning that we had better keep emotional leeway to enjoy the full moon no matter how busy we are. patrick alavis ace remix is turning the jazz and detroit techno rooted original into a deep roller.

the saga continues with this incredible paradise ibiza sampler 5 feat david vendetta, da fresh, superfunk & rob carroll, dim chris...

patrick begins with his techno bomb “tooth n nail”, a track that showcases a heavy detroit influence with smooth synth work reminiscent of productions from robert hood and carl craig. midway through the track, patrick keeps us guessing with a wobbly synth line that adds playfulness to an otherwise straightforward, moody journey. an understated use of serene female whispers throughout gives this tracks techno classicism a fresh sound. next patrick gives us “davinches”, a chugging tech-house track that pairs a deep, buoyant bass line with a tight, resonant kick, giving it a dynamic groove. patricks tight percussion work keeps things moving with its rims, clicks, and ticks set against a spooky, playful melody that energizes and propels the track to its finish. fans of guido schneider won’t want to miss this one! on the flip, nyc’s elon of clink recordings fame, and a newcomer to klectik, takes on remix duties with a minimal techno take on patrick’s “tooth n nail”. elons version is a pulsating, stripped down mind-bender marked by sub-bass and the sporadic clangs of raw machinery — sexy! this remix maintains the smooth character of patricks original in melodic sensibility, but stands on its own via sparse rhythmic patterns resulting in a deeper, moodier treatment.

played by: ricardo villalobos, sis, nick curly, anthony collins, chris tietjen, robert dietz, markus fix and many more !!! a resident of the respected mono club night, felix neumann is one of those producers that live music on a 24/7 basis and his productions just keep on coming and growing. we are very happy to have this talented 21 year old in our artist family. the title track put it back is a fresh sound affair and a guaranteed club banger, as tested by most of the mitu family djs. the pumping groove will keep the crowd on its toes and the pinching vocals will have them asking for more. rough is a track that could almost be described by its title alone. it is a steady and solid track that showcases felix s versatile approach to music. that versatility extends to the first b side track. acento is an elegant musical exercise where house, percussion and jazz harmoniously fuse into a track with a strong dance appeal. the last track on this release brings out a heavy-deep-bass vibe. chemal will make your head nod and your body get loose, without you knowing how it all happened.

in spring of 2006, jackpot began to fester in a stockholm apartment. without fresh air or natural light, the group developed its uniquely mutant strain of italo disco mixed with early 80s body music aided only by the sickly blue rays of late night tv. while the jackhammer rhythms of their music were proliferating in stockholm, jackpot dove into the deepest recesses of the electronic dance music psyche for the most primal of all rhythmic impulses - their own unmistakable sound - the sound of western culture falling apart in a blaze of shudders and hiccups. as late night sci fi reruns colored the room, jackpot also picked and chose amongst the psychotic debris of previous eras - the movies of kenneth anger, the music of suicide, velvet underground and bruce haack, the words of william s burroughs. and then they added the junkiest element of all - themselves. after two critically acclaimed records, the third chapter of the jackpot saga is about to be told. its called greased lightning (also features remix work from such talents as in flagranti and rory phillips). you hear that beat? thats them knocking on your door.

smallville records are set to release their first cd compilation featuring tracks by stl, steinhoff & hammouda with dionne, christopher rau, lowtec and many more to be cut on a limited 12inches series. with the second ep, the label from rainy city hamburg shows their preference for fresh excursions into deephouse and beyond. the dream team of contemporary soundscaping, move d and benjamin brunn, come up with a slightly moving earwig, tracky and reduced to give the dancefloor a colorful kick. smallville co-owner lawrence makes himself a classic with the bassy and chordish tune >dont forget<. he sets a tribute to deephouse music still holding his dreamy detroitish lawrence twist
