when we first started thinking about the compilation, we had in mind the idea to put together a great minimal techno selection with stuff from the early 90s, which really inspired us, like robert hood, dan bell, plastikman, pansonic and mike ink to name a few. whilst working on the project we had the feeling that there is so much more great and influential minimal music from way before the techno thing started. so we were very excited to combine the music from the electronic pioneers, with the tracks from the minimal techno godfathers in a very modern way. in minimal music there is so much (space) in between the sounds and the space that gives you a lot of opportunities for an own interpretation. the grandfather paradox is a scientific theory about time travelling and was first described by the science fiction writer rene barjavel in his book - le voyageur imprudent. we took suggestions out of that because we felt like we are travelling back in time and manipulating the old music with modern knowledge. the fact that we did all this with the deserved respect to the originals makes us quite sure that the results are bringing something new and interesting to the old tracks and transport the past into the here and now. - henrik schwarz, ?e & dixon

up and coming berlin based till von sein presents his first full release on dirt crew. with records out on trenton, channels, morris audio and his marvellous remixes on moodmusic and for our last tigerskin record he proved to be a new face in the deep house scene that is bound to take over. tills productions are very melodic and gather a lot of influence from jazz to funk and disco, all this combined with a strong tech house groove makes his tracks true dancefloor burners. to give his debut an extra boost we asked his mates catz n dogz ( aka 3 channels ) to deliver a bomb of a remix ! they are currently one of the hottest acts around and recently released a great album on mothership, not to mention their hit remix on boxer last year. these guys proved once more that they can do awesome remixes and their version of ovas is nothing less but brilliant ! it will tear the club apart!

swoosh was without doubt a major underground hit in 2008 with top10 positions in all sales and dj charts. the best possible base for phunklarique & pierce to team up again this year with a massive followup named womba to continue their journey on yellow tail. plays by gorge. harada, plstik funk, ... again, it s kind of a split ep, with two totally different versions of the same idea - creating atmospheric grooves with each their unique style that has individually brought them support from all over the globe. phunklarique concentrates more on the minimal side of electronics with deep bass, a sick leadline and stabs that continuously build up in a very hypnotic way, while pierce gives it a slick, but modern housy groove with sirenlike horn sounds. we have been testing these out on the floor for quite a few weeks with amazing results, so check it out and see what it does for yourself

already supported by johnny d., someone else, laurent garnier, jennifer cardini, florian meindl, david keno.. erich lesovsky is the newest addition to stil vor talents exciting artist roster. here comes someone who is totally fascinated and absorbed by technology, someone who only performs as a live act in the clubs and - in the time of digital machinery - still works on constructing his own devices to make music with. after singles for wba and keno records, it is now the time for his first release on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent imprint and mr. lesovsky is very happy to be part of the family. so are we, of course! not only, but also because his first ep is a killer display of musical wizardry. it stars off with >bell a donna<, a minimal funk-laden piece of music that is mainly based on some crisp beats, many warm effects and sounds and a melody so simple, yet so encapsulating to capture the heart of every dancer in the club. this is oldskool minimal funk at its best! next up is >93 percent<, a title that might be misleading at first, because this track sounds more like 150 percent really. a great loop made of fidgety techno hi-hats and some wonderful warm analogue sounds - this could well be termed a new form of fidget techno. last up is >riot beatz<, an experimental display of minimal sound design, yet still very danceable. lots of crystal bashing beats, a pumping bass and many little effects - this will definitely be one for the dancefloor in the morning hours. not only does e. lesovsky seem a master of sound, his expertise seems to cover the perfect creation of warm, yet basic tech anthems and his influences seem to come from all sorts of musical directions, from hip-hop to funk to house back to techno. it is the easiness with which he delivers his music that makes his sound designs so special!

sebastian davidson as a dj is a diverse mix of deep house across to more techier, tougher sounds, breaks and downtempo grooves, but each mix has its roots firmly planted in the deeper end of the house music spectrum&#133, resulting in deep sexy underground house music shaken over the funk cubes and perfectly served with a soul garnish.

2003 classic! includes c rock mix!!

freaky electro madness from sweden

this obscure lost soundtrack for an even more obscure (and also lost and never finished) italia violenta cop movie was recently discovered when i bought the dusty reel tapes from a restaurant owner in fiumicino, a seaside town near rome. panter 777 aka il labirinto di roma violenta aka the maze of violence, he told me, was directed by gervasio giardano in 1981 and was considered too (politically) explicit by the movie production company who dropped the project after the first screening. the soundtrack, an explosion of wahwah funk riffs and juicy analog synthesizers, was composed by an obscure band called nacho patrol. the restaurant owner, who wishes to remain anonymous, was one of the band members and composed most of the tracks. (danny wolfers)

a brilliant follow up to the critically acclaimed auto beam ep released on the respected scottish label mighty robot recordings. posable flotsam is a gloriously floor friendly ep. both complex and emotive, and suffused with english electrics characteristic micro produced beats and textures, the three tracks shimmer with addictive harmonies and a solid dose of electronic funk. like his previous release, the influences and aesthetics of 70s sci fi soundtracks pervade throughout, effortlessly finessed and updated for modern production and dancefloor sensibilities.

stone cold classic funky disco floor filler thats stood the test of time. first time ever on 12inch!!! taken from the hard to find self titled lp by tommy stewart, bump & hustle music is the definitive disco funk party anthem. it was recorded in 1976 in atlanta, georgia, and since then the lp has found itself in the play boxes of soul, funk and jazz djs alike. however, its not until now that this amazing song has finally made it onto the preferred format of dance djs the world over – the 45rpm 12inch single. in 1976 tommy stewart was a busy man, working as an arranger, producer, performer and writer for a host of soul and rnb artists. the lp made for abraxas records was the first to go directly under his name, and although it failed to take off locally, the lp soon became known by djs across the world primarily for the club smash bump & hustle music. as it happens that song in particular almost didnt exist but for tommy needing to come up with something quick in order to fill in a gap in the album. conceived and recorded on the spur of the moment, and with backing vocals by isaac hayes singers hot buttered soul overdubbed later, its a superb example of rhythmic simplicity blended with soulful, catchy harmonies. its just impossible to listen to bump & hustle music without a broad smile coming to your face, and when played loud in a club, its impossible not to dance!
