radioblues take me home on fenou no.16 is the sweetest piece of minimalish housy electronica in a long time on this label. as a mere mortal you cannot resist the dreamy voice of sylwia van der wonderland. you just want to fulfil her wish to take her home and get caught up in her world. solely the music itself makes it impossible to leave the dance floor and thats thanks to robert - the rocket scientist - who is the other half of this organic duo. with remixes by umami, arjuna schiks and le prix you can choose from various styles, but when the last beats fade youre almost forced to flip to b side and back to the a and so on and so forth

daniel savio is one of the originators of the skweee genre, and actually the one who first coined the term skweee to describe the process of squeezing each and every sound used in his tunes from one single synth. it goes whithout saying that myor is very proud to present this 7 inch by the master of his trade. assecs denied is about as close as youll get to a banger within this freakazoid genre: compelling drum works, catchy synth bleeps and some obscured vocal snippets. on make it personal señor savio treads a slower and more modest pace. still skweee though, just a bit more relaxed and even slightly melancholi

mojuba core member nick solé is ready to unleash his unique deep house power on the album format. his debut lp entitled >flowers for you< will be ready within the next few months to hit the streets in early summer. this release can be seen as a preamble to his debut and shows nick going some new ways in his sound universe, the first track was done as an experiment for a friend and created entirely with samples of paper as it used by architects and engineers, the second track a carefully constructed downtempo jam which shows us nicks love for special sound aesthetics. this record is a special vinyl only edition, so get it while you can!

ilario alicante might well be best known for his previous releases on big room labels cocoon and cecille but preconceptions can be misleading. here on sudden drop we plough a deeper furrow, not ones for hands up in the air shenanigans we prefer to get our heads down on the dancefloor for some serious introspection, which is why this 3 tracker from the italian born ilario finds its way onto our label. echotechno is indeed a main room slice of stomping techno but with that oh so important moody vibe that we crave here at sd,rouge dub on the flip delves deeper with an exceedingly trippy soundscape whilst untitled drop rounds things off with a spritely techno groove.

36 hours in. the lights are flickering and the sweat is pouring out of you like the thoughts that you re trying to write down, to get down the words, to put down the message, to translate all the ideas that keep appearing in your head. ideas like uninvited guests that keep showing up and refusing to leave. somewhere though, there s a truth in there. you know it because you saw it. you know it because you felt it. because when you knew that even though there were ten million reasons why you should go to bed now, why you should go to bed straight away. that you should put these silly things down and stop trying to create and just get some sleep already. that you should stop trying to wrestle the ideas in your subconscious down to the ground so you can actually capture and express them to others. but you persist.

if you like the sound of cheap analog synthesizers from the mid 80s, drum machines and strangely pitched human voices this might be the record for you. a small warning about the quite melodic and poppy arrangement, it is not minimal, nor pure drones. sorry. estelle ep has nothing to do with the car Škoda estelle, even though some instruments used on the songs were produced during the same years. estelle ep is more or less a result of the new kranglan broadcast hardware studio environment. the plan was simple: to get rid of the machines that were not being used and to make the rest communicate with each other. this resulted in some very fine jams where realtime feelings and spontaneous ideas were converted into music. each track is its own moment in time.

for uzuri 018 we return to one of our home grown artists – jitterbug. time has flown since his last release for us in 2010, but we have been quite eager to get some new material out from him for a while – and, based on feedback we have had, plenty of other people are keen to hear more from him too. both his raw winter and beaten trax eps were pretty popular releases for us and his dj appearances always create a stir, so we are pleased to bring you this, the arcane theory ep. the track sequencing on this record is pretty aggressive – front-loaded with the confrontational rise of the machines. a track that really lives up to its title, sounding like the production line at cyberdyne systems… all stomp and evil synths, like a bad mood e-dancer. fallout couldnt be further from that – relaxed and making no attempt at all to get in your face. itll win you over, though. just a nice, deep groove and a lovely, phased beat. could play it for hours… the whole of the flip is devoted to nomads, a chiming, acidic wander. nearly eleven minutes in length. the kicks never at the fore on this one – most of the action occurs at the mid and high frequencies – a resonant 303, lots of hi hats and, later, synths which expand on the eastern-flavour of the track title

part 2/3! deep house – uh killer?! dear gorge just like we know him. hardly anyone puts so much energy into a yet so low key appearing track and this is what we love him for. gorge was a history witness for our biggest light installation and the most oppulent feast, as is his right. certified ass-shaking tune with a joyous organ going hand in hand with a female vocal. there is no more to say about this track as it speaks for itself. reminiscing igors 10 minute intro in combat gear at the treibgut deluxe. some push did jonas put into this few minute collaboration track with mz sunday luv. it has to be loud, it has to run – it has to take its place on this compilation. homebased in frankfurt jonas was so fond of hannover at a time that he almost moved north. but we could not afford the hotel room for such a long time. deep house making you get rid of your jacket and shake your hips together. get yourself a drink at the bar and head for the dancefloor. nicely smooth this track is driving you into the night. the only night we actually had champagne and still could all make it to the train to hamburg in the morning.

cork based producer and dj shane linehan has cut quite the impressive swathe in the first few months of 2012, anointing his own basic groove imprint in fine style with the swiftly sold out 12 inch my initial grooves as well as gracing mad mats local talk label with a stellar vinyl drop. linehan returns to the controls for the second basic groove release with more of the same - namely deep, tracky productions notable for a crispness in percussion and rawness in texture. lead track >get together< is a swaggering example of linehans style, with a groove formed of low set bass stabs and playful neon chords. its complemented by the deeper sounds of >the future< with the opening shards of dubby chords soon aided and abetted by snapping rimshot percussion, thick bass clouds and the whispered titular vocal.

classic detroit electro from the submerge camp.

two tracks from tinis debut album tessa get a remix treatment by carl craig and pulshar. carl craig, a creative visionary, electronic music icon from detroit, founder of the seminal planet e label, exposes the essence of my shine and turns it to a serious peak time track. pulshar, desolats musical heavyweights and travellers between spacious songcraft and the futuristic outer-reaches of the dub techno, appear here with their remake of mine has a shower, a pure balearic bliss.

berlin based daniel dexter is part of the new breed of producers showing us why theres still mileage in the good old house groove. his cultured, expressive productions have the mark of a true talent and mr. dexter has only just begun. the acid-revival lives on.storm is a heavy, late night tale of sax, e-piano and stomping synth basslines. growing from a filtered intro, its song like structure drives us into true reckless abandon - perfect for the darker moments of the night, but still oozy with funk and soul. the thick, percussive opening bars of there will be jazz lead to a focus on one of dexters chosen weapons - more jazzy saxophone samples and synthesized strings lift us into a musical crescendo of tension, yet theres a laid back, new york vibe to the track, which will no doubt get plenty of plays this summer. the mysterious murder is a darker affair, shrouded in rave-era stabs and a real pushing vibe. its clear that daniel is a dextrous (no pun intended) producer with plenty of tricks up his sleeve

joshua iz, the seminal deep house producer of iz & diz fame drops the debut release for dream in audio. the figure is an ode to his chicago roots but with a san francisco influence. b/w what u like a melodic deep house cut reminiscent of sf circa 1998. get this!

dj w!ld and robsoul – the perfect match. phil weeks recently spoke in an interview about how there are certain producers he always trusts and gives complete freedom to when he asks them to record an ep for robsoul - dj w!ld was one of those he named. on w!ldsytle we get four cuts that again showcase the french producers trademark style of tracks which build and build, creating dancefloor intensity through their relentless hypnotic grooves, before breaking into expertly chosen sampled breakdowns. with recent outings on harry klein, jonk and luna records alongside his own catwash and his more recently launched the w label, dj w!ld is in serious demand right now. a stalwart of the tech and deep house scene, his career path began in the clubs of paris in 1996. working with chris carrier from 2005 under the name of catwash (which also spawned the label) he became well known in the french house and techno scene and by 2009 was touring the world, including being offered the residency he retains for circo loco at dc10. the w label launched in 2011 and was home to w!lds critically acclaimed >palace< album and the club destroying singles it contained. may will see the launch of a new dj w!ld album, d!rty, on the impeccable cabin fever imprint run by matt edwards (radio slave)

with surprise cut on center ... after the success of the first release, tanstaafl returns for their second wax adventure, this time with the musical renegade dj october at the helm. october has entered a new phase of production for the tanstaafl series and has focused himself firmly on a reduced, stripped and effective formula for the floor. his productions are heavy, smoked out narcoleptic dub infused journeys, and his latest 12 offers more or less of the same opaque vibe but with his sights firmly set on the floor, with one foot in the past and the other in the future - drawing from his usual detroit, nyc and chicago influences. so we kick off 2012 with a future classic, singularity jump, which douses you in synthesized saxophone hooks, chopped vocal samples and a meaty juno hip-house inspired bass-line.planet of minds is more of a inner space affair very much inspired by acid and dub. successfully combining the two, october injects more of an airy feel into the mix and delivers a moody cosmic acid jam that will not fail your dancing feet or tripped-out mind. definitely one for the later hours.this is going to be an anthem, hands down, so get it before its gone for good.

following the huge success of his recent close single - which thanks to a nick grimshaw single of the week, support from annie mac and skream & benga, and even a play on the chris moyles show, threw the 21 year olds bedroom productions to the front everybodys collective consciousness - hackman returns with his follow up, and first single from his upcoming album agree to disagree. * the agree to disagree 12inch is housed in a die cut sleeve with spot uv varnish in insanely limited quantaties. act quickly because it wont get repressed. ever

label like soma records, universal, get physical and also highgrade, all contribute to the impressive credentials of the spaniard, prompts breathtaking live sets and releases. but prompt, himself the founder of his own label 7noise, is never one to rest on his laurels: instead he continues to push boundaries with his new live project: the prompt live band, a fusion of electronic sound production and jazz. this is not the first such step for the clasically trained musician, with his onuba project he has already mixed the flamenco sound of home country with electronic music. the three tracks to be released on highgrade records, created in collaboration with the chop suey quartet, bring to life what would appear to be almost impossible: a real connection between the highly concentrated nature of electronic rhythms and the loose and improvised sounds of jazz instrumentation. the result is a very special kind of studio jam session: victor tarín on piano, david blanco on bass, daniel del val on the drums - and prompt on a computer! with so much pasion for musical innovation on show, its no wonder that highgrade co-boss todd bodine wanted to get his fingers into the pie and deliver his own remix for the ep

2012 marks the spot for the return of the most applauded, the most respected and simply the loudest bass music record label in the world, valve recordings. captained by two of the most revered producers in the game, dillinja and k-aze (lemonde’s all-new multi-genre production project pseudonym), the valve has set a course for global domination once more as they get ready a whole host of beats from the full spectrum of electronic music. d&b, dubstep, grime, garage, house, footwork … its a new era for valve recordings, be warned, bars will be raised!

moon harbour artist chris lattner joins up with karina junker for his perhaps last original track. >so he finally called?< rolls with a deep flow and melodic sound bites to the floor, while karina speaks with an incredibly sexy timbre. fabian reichelt & raycoux jr. & stefan barth - whether as driving, clubbing tech house, atmospheric deephouse dub or fabians slow down elektronika remix - by piano and voice all obsirnth variations get obtained in their own distinctive touch. latest news of raycoux&barth, the guys did it again with their new release >swing it like<. combined with / coupled with short vocal parts the catchy maintheme whips to the front. suitable for the dance floor from first kick until last hi-hat. with >deep flower<, pascal augner aka beatamines supplies a friendly tech house track that already divines the open air spirit. after his album on damm records, the erfurt guy is back on polar-rec to live out his deeper side. completly new is max nippert a young talent from gera. last year he earned a lot of respect at berlins club kater holzig with his energetic dj-sets. his first release is a bulky but atmospheric techno track.
