classic chicago vocal house

support from the worlds finest djs and artists such as pier bucci, argenis brito, butane, maetrik, gregory shiff, ambivalent, and id, barem, and noah pred.
this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

kraken are rolling again, with their second release in as many weeks (check out krkn009), and its good to have the denmark based dons back! very little is known about a side artist and la resident jaybird, but im sure plenty of people will be on the hunt for info after this little number drops. absolutely relentless, crushing dubstep music, a refreshingly nasty little number reminiscent in atmosphere to one of krakens earliest releases eye of the demon by wolfman (jsl), this tune is currently tearing up clubs worldwide, with support from 2000f and notably featuring on hatcha & crazy ds kiss fm radio show, you re gunna love this one! legendary kraken artist jsl pops up on the flip with a brand new beat, kept relatively under wraps this one comes out of nowhere and smacks is straight round the chops like kimbo slice! act quickly on this one, it wont last.

2nd single from the patrick cowley & jorge socarras album >catholic<. bleeding edge remixing by oni ayhun and noble editing by morgan geist added for your pleasure. while still everybody keeps guessing whos behind the mysterious and burning hot works of oni ayhun, macros got the mans first ever remix! o.a. obscured cowleys >memory fails me< with his trademark darkness and took it to the edge of engineering. and its got all that feeling, too! if you asked yourself what a forward-thinking patrick cowley might have done today - here is a serious offering. >burn brighter flame< is the disco heart of the album. with all disco crate digging of the decade, >bbf< is the ultimate find. since the original artists had intended this one to be a single theres also a stunning instrumental! we just remember how everybody got tears of joy when finn johannsen mixed the different versions of this for the first time at berlins picknick. who could have been asked for an edit of this gem other than metro areas morgan geist? creating a dialogue between the vocal and instrumental versions, his edit offers even more variety for the dj to mix in and out of this great tune.

slamming peak time techno tracks, no more words necessary !!

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.

tube10 returns to the scene again with a release to blow your minds away. this time its the greek formation ekelon. their debut on planet mu with headhunter on mary anne hobbs evangeline had us in our grasp so much that we couldnt help ourselves then to hit them up and see what whould happen. tube10 005 is the result of this encounter and it shows ekelon flexing their crossover sound like no other. is it techno? is it dubstep? we dont know but we sure as hell love both tunes to bits!
the a side evidence - a steady tune in the ekelon sets and lots of others aswell. feel this tune filling up the speakers and rumbling up those subs we thought where lost.. a perfect blend between all that is experimental while keeping it dj friendly..flip it over for freeze land.. an chilled out tundra of techno, thats how we like to call it.. frozen subs combined with defrosted stepping vibes ensures this to be a solid first release for the ekelon boys.. and dont worry this wont be their last!

lost for 30 years - unreleased masterpieces by disco legend patrick cowley and indoor life singer jorge socarras - remixed by morgan geist (metro area) & kink (rush hour)! first single from the forthcoming album “catholic” by patrick cowley & jorge socarras. “soon” is a dark proto-techno track with hypnotic lyrics and warped synths, while “robot children” builds on a rigid sequencer bassline and futuristic sounddesign. these masterpieces were lost for 30 years and get released for the very first time! the first remix comes from no one less than metro area’s morgan geist - and it’s arguably one of his best mixes to date. responsible for environ’s unclassics series, he certainly was the first call for the job. his rework transforms cowley’s trademark production sound into 2009, respectful for authenticity and forward thinking at the same time. rush hour’s kink has turned heads with his incredible production skills and live appearances. his remix of “soon , derived from the original’s drum machine sounds, catapults the track to the future. bass heavy with a rugged beat, this is one to cross boundaries from techno to dubstep to experimental!

mexican techno veteran luis flores makes his debut appearance on the droid recordings label with dain brammage. as both an artist andmusical catalyst, luis has shared many ideals with the members of droid. after many years of pushing progressive concepts that are both innovative and non conforming, luis has developed his own production style that is precise, hypnotic, and maintains a healthy degree of dance floor groove. his title track is a deep journey into psychedelia and unearthly bass. brammage contains only a few essential elements, each tripped toperfection. sparse eerie vocals carry nicely along the 6 minute sequence. flores inside track the call is a slow and steady builder with dark subtle vibes and crisp hand claps. at four minutes flores introduces a rippling synth gate that trips listeners deeper into submission. very heady, very essential
