rinse fms breakfast show host, dva is a producer with a unique take on the uk funky bug, blending the stiff 8-bar funk of grime with a super-supple rhythmic sensibility, sewing neon colours with a laid back precision into his tracks. >natty< is a prime example, drums stagger like they are about to topple over, squelchy bass synths lock together a tough tribal drum pattern, liquid metal trickles around in the mix, and these contrasting elements react with explosive results on the dancefloor. on >ganja<, a cartoonish ring-tone-friendly synth melody worms its way around tight soca-esque drums and housey organ stabs. factor in the depth-charge 808 subs, steel drums and sparingly used ragga chat and you ve got a technicolour hyperdub debut fresh for 2010.

the waiting is finally over! after all the ups and downs of the past year, we can happily report that joshua eustis now firmly intends to continue telefon tel aviv as a solo project. in order to mark his decision with a bang, thewonderful title track >immolate yourself< is being released as the second single from the current lp. the song has been entrusted to highly acclaimed and diverse remix artists who have skilfully stripped down the epic album track to more club-friendly formats.
the a side is delivered by label-mate thomas muller, whose finely detailed techno soundscapes can now be enjoyed on five bpc 12 inch releases. his >immolate< remix takes a much more direct approach. he reduces the lush arrangement of the original to a powerful basic framework, leaves out the vocals almost entirely, and creates a surprise when the track crumbles into sonic chaos towards the end.
miss fitz aka maayan nidam has had singles released on labels including raum musik and freak n chic, and these have been remixed by renowned artists such as ricardo villalobos. her version of >immolate< also makes a clear break from the album track and serves up her very own brand of abstract, dancefloor-friendly house. once again, all the opulence of the original is thrown overboard, a dry beat is placed at the centre of the arrangement and enriched with sinuous vocals.
ben klock needs no further introduction - he is the epitome of the bleak, hard minimal sound. his album >one< is currently available on ostgut ton, and as a remixer he has earned the highest acclaim for his version of depeche modes >peace<. bens >jack mix< is fittingly titled and lives up to all the expectations of the name. the track is stripped back to a resounding, hammer-like beat framework - minimised for maximum effect.
bpitch legend sascha funke delivers a surprise with another astoundingly reduced remix, at least by his standards. he turns away from the melodic richness of his current album >mango< in favour of repetitive fragments and an extended arc of tension which will surely make his >immolate< remix a massive after-hour hit.

supported by adam beyer, john digweed, dominik eulberg, ewan pearson, perc, danny tenaglia, dave tarrida. roland m. dill is a passionate dj, trained musician as well as bit of a scientist. this release tells a story of psycho acoustics. so expect >low go< to be something special for your ears and for your soul. roland likes chicagomusic and this track has the chicagoesque feeling in it from the beginning. those who remember green velvet will get a hang also on this powerhouse-techno production! this track will be easily fitted in to every berghain dj set and rock the shit out of everyone on the dance floor. dont expect dubbed out lushness, this is serious dance or die action .
the remixes come from prominent producers around europe, so starting chronological from a2 to b2: sian has appeared on a lot on raves and parties with his surf board. he is an international traveller who loves to be reminded of the times when surfing farmers left their houses with door frames and no doors. his remix works in a way a countdown functions. building up tension at an incredible speed, this track is set out to explode... but sian would not be sian if he had not developed a club friendly torture . sian rides the wave of superfatt basslines and adds a sequence that sounds as if someone had replaced his teeth with thin pieces of metal, creating a humming voice comparable to one of a jaws harp. sian keeps the tension going with very few elements and shows he is a true masterof techno.
secret cinema has been accompanying us since his first releases mid of the 90ies and we truly believe quality prevails, not to mention his mayor chart hit just 3 months ago with “shake ur tech-ass”. well secret cinema is unbelievably massive in his production. we dont see how anyone can fatten up the sound more than he can. but it is not only about tuning and pimping and pimping and tuning... his remix is a masters piece of perfectionbecause it creates something rare... deep emotional hydraulic strength. this is like diving head on into a pool of silicone and getting sucked into it. this track has an hypnotic feel to it that is comparable to radiohead.
darko esser is an icon in the techno scene of the netherlands. his remix takes the track in to a direction you would not expect it could go to. starting rather minimal darkos remix soon takes a turn and brings in jack elements and cool nostalgic melodies that will warm the heart of every detroit techno lover. was it derrick may who played chords like this... these strings are looked up in the back of our heads like childhood memories of having your first popcycle exploding in your mouth. this is soulful music with just enough analogue imperfection and warmth to it.

yc‘s adultnapper has built a reputation for himself that not only commands respect for his highly evolved production skills, but also for his unique musical visions that steer him down his own unique path. not interested in following the current pop-trends, adultnapper turns in a freaky two tracker using a sharp, modular and timeless electronic sound palette. ‚almost nothing‘ is a complex and reduced spacer that features wonderfully processed drums and endless tweaked out studio trickery. haunting smatterings of melody, synth texture and paranoid-funky vocals drop in and out of the mix as this deep acidic groover charms you from the inside. poker flat regular patrick chardronnet provides a wicked remix that begins along the same reduced, textural tip as the original, yet builds into a breathtaking organ led harmonic climax. dramatic, uplifting and main-room friendly chardronnet‘s remix opens up the spectrum once again as audiomatique continues to surprise. ‚white fingers black hair‘ is the b side jam from adultnapper. a skipping, similarly complex and meandering groove is jacked up with some dirty hats and a playful synth theme that revolves around the track, amongst building strings and gated snares as its freaky climax is unveiled. super, off the wall stuff from nyc‘s chief mindwaper himself

>trippy monkeys< and >ringneck< are typical gurtz style dark, trippy, tracks with lots of bleeps, detuned voices and athmosferic fx, but yet with a energetic, strong grooves. >trippy monkeys< gets an additional remix treatments by marcin czubala and bruno pronsato. czubalas version is the most warm and funky one, probably most dancefloor friendly track off the ep, while pronsatos is the most experimental, in his trademark abstact, hypnotic and psychodelic style.

the first release on phonica white limited series is from tokyos iori. this young producers impressive work ranges from woozy ambient electronics to full-on club tracks. the common thread is a highly developed sense of texture and arrangement.a-side galaxy is simply lean, expertly crafted techno, led by a rolling bassline and crisp hi-hats, with hypnotic melody patterns skittering off the surface. its a trippy but accessible heads-down affair that has the depth and the bite to do damage at peak-time and in the after-hours alike. urge on the flipside is an even deeper, sub-heavy cut, an insistent, club-friendly groove swathed in burbling synth arpeggios and fx. despite being stripped-back, the sound design and sheer warmth of the production is incredible. the track really breathes.

side a is >chime ep< by hydrus. the four tracks they contributed stand out because of their meticulous production and their wonderful sense of melody and emotion. this is music in the best electronic tradition, blending hiphop, idm, ambient, funk, drone and badass breaks. hydrus begins this twenty-minute journey with a funky bump and end it in a mess of nervous percussion, splintered to dust.
side b is an altogether positive and quirky piece of work by kettel. like most of his work of the last few years, >yellow baron< is exploding with beautiful melody. in six tracks kettel puts everything to work to make your head bop, to bring a smile to your face and a tear to the corner of your eye. classic stuff, without losing sense of experiment.

mothership transmission 027 – maetrik the >space chronic< ep was the biggest selling record on mothership last year and for good reason. maetrik has an incredible knack for innovative and original sound design. he is also able to package these sounds inside great arrangements and very dj friendly beats. this is what really separates his records from the rest of the sound design experts. >show me< is the perfect example of maetriks amazing talents. after several minutes of a super funky techno groove (2 things that dont usually go together) we find ourselves at the drop. and this drop is one of the best we have ever heard. it sounds like an angry wasp is flying full speed through the inside of your brain. the riff will melt your mind. >simpleman< on the other side is a great example of maetriks versatility. you might be expecting a hardcore techno bit but instead we hear a very groovy, almost reserved jazz techno fusion joint, but still with the heavy beats to keep it real for the clubs.

>we are electric< is the second single to be taken from the recently released >entertainment< album by fischerspooner. a soaring slice of scintillating electro with super fried guitars and anthemic lyrics that put me in mind of blade runner. possibly the standout track on an album full of super strong tunes, >we are electric< comes with 3 amazing remixes which couldnt be more different from each other. the lush radio friendly nu disco mix by kitsune favourites classixx reaveals the pop heart of the song and makes us think of the pet shop boys. next up is an absolutely storming mix by cursor miner, this is so hot its likely to burn the hair off your head if heard at full volume. its extreme treated vocals recall moments from the first fs album but the beats are pure miner madness. lastly but by no means least we have hot chip at their most club friendly, comparatively subtle compared to the previous mix, its deceptive simplicity reveals an insidious dancefloor killer when played in the right context. so there we have it then a knockout single from fischerspooner on the back of a great album that has received some fine press, a selection of which is printed below.

nice price deal !!! played by greg wilson, jesse rose... the house mannequin ep 1 is the first release of the brand new label >house mannequin< from berlin. the record consists of 3 very dj friendly disco styled pieces.!! >can you dig it ?< is a modern chicago >re-edit< styled track. a delightful long edited guitar and bass part is followed by a nice twirling strings section with shining chorus. >space police< is a extended >re-edit< of a spacy japanese 80s disco track with lots of additional effects, rhythms and percussion. >good caves< is a freaky, mad acid track with lots of rythmic tension. the whole record is definitely made by and for party people... a record for the hot dancefloor with a positive vibe...!
