funky detroit electro ghetto tech !! ltd restock

a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. we re gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut : ) just the way we like it... second release up is a taste of what s to come later in 2008 when we drop windsurfs debut album. these 4 tracks where initially planned for release on sentrall but where for some strange reason scrapped and made available as mp3 only. too sad as this is some of the finest heady downbeat electronic music to appear in the current baleric,cosmic blah blah blah call it what you want scene. windsurf consists of 1 part sorcerer and 1 part hatchback, both has records out on tirk and thisisnotanexit respectively and they ve also managed to deliever killer reworks of lcd soundsystem and shawn lee s ping pong orchestra(to be unleashed early 2008). crafting their own musical universeout of layers and layers of guitars and synths, never going for the obvious... well, im not gonna spend more time trying to convince you, check it out at wordandsound.de(paste in appropriate link here f.ex....)

>life is the only drug i wont ever give up<. this is probably the most life-affirming claim ever forwarded by ware- labelboss matthias schaffhäuser and its made to fit the party. and as hes being the guest on a very special label hes going all the way. totally in accordance with the wir-label-philosophy, the title track shows off lots of modern producing skills, never sticking to just one rigid idea but coming along with a whole bunch of attitudes. pop-induced vocals are artfully woven into minimal beats, housy strokes meet sound concrète, and the whole combines to one neverending track, leaving the elitist style ghetto behind and delivering itself to the pulsating life outside, leading to a truly beautiful work clearly thats one hell of a challenge for every remixer, but lovable atom smahing mathias kaden is the right man at the right place, as he knows how to deal with emotional content under the influence of the contemporary raw. his eleven-minute-opus tightens, focalizes, piles and moves around the original material, but without betraying its spirit. this remix seems larger than life but still maddingly gripping and you get the overwhelming impression that here every angle leads to another, every bit communicating. its a nation under the groove, all in one track, and its here to be heard

played by move d., deetron, agnes, lerosa, quarion, … attention: limited to 350 copies! hot on the heels of his real soon limited release, berlinbased producer hauke freer offers another fab piece of deep house music! hauke has an old-school production approach, working with contemporary software but using a palette of mainly vinyl samples to give a loose, rawsounding edge. all 3 tracks maintain a deep, dark yet smooth feel, using some lo-fi percussion. hauke is keeping a >minimal< edge, fusing detroit flavoured electronics with a rough berlin feel. old-fashioned in a good way - just the way we like it! hauke freer grew up in a small town near hamburg and moved to berlin in 2000 to work for the techno label kanzleramt. after spending a year in australia djing and working for the label future classic, hauke returned to berlin to work for the resopal schallware label

smoothy rnb sampler incl top artists like ryan leslie, trey songz, chris brown and more !!

deep influenced and darker hypnotizing minimal techno with a nice booty shakin groove. danton eeprom, as part of the new generation of french producers, has several times demonstrated his high ability to refresh the existing styles and give them his deep mark, as in >all i can say< (freak n chic 23) and >confessions of a english opium eater< (infine 06)

combustible ep is a joint production made in barcelona by swat squad (trapez, resopal, treibstoff) and sentinel (a talented newcomer). >combustible< greets you with a set of floating pads that instantly give place to a fast paced set of typewriter clicks. soon enough there is a new scenario when new exciting elements enter, bringing different colours to the composition. >verduritas< is like a sweet pea! its fresh, rich and smart!

igor tchkotoua and dan duncan are true workaholics. not only are the two mallorquinos forming one of the most exciting techno duos of our time and play in the most famous clubs worldwide, they always make it to pop up in the studio to work on their releases on sonic society, wig records or like in the case of >deliverance<, the new 12inch on cocoon. >deliverance< starts quite cautious but the track becomes more and more complex – pig & dan give the dj a tool that fits the minimal raver like a custom-made suit. the b side is again one of those tracks that put a smile on your face. in >sly detector<, atmospheric techno sound unites with energetic celebration pleasure, just as we know it from tracks like >after ibiza< or >on to the beat<. the rolling hookline which has the necessary splash of acid is, together with the floating trance layer, adrenalising to such extent that nothing else remains to be done but to raise your hands in the air. the track was already a hit with many djs in 2007, and will be one – chosen in the right moment – on many dancefloors in 2008, too

tuff rhyhms staby chords & slick, but minimalish vocals give you a peak time number... etienne ozborne serves his first remix on the flipside, taking things a little darker & techier, but retaining the housey vibes!!

off-key limited is a new subsidiary label of off-key industries whose aim is to give exposure to new artists alongside established producers and to bring a wider range of genres with less of a focus on the dancefloor. each release will be strictly limited and will not be repressed. we start by raiding the off-key vaults to unleash a series of releases entitled >the dust off<, featuring material written in the off-key studio over the years by matt o brien and various collaborators and associates. matt kicks off the ep with >a new page turns<, a bangin dubby detroit techhouse cut driven by a low slung rhythm and analog stabs dripping in reverb, overlayed with a melodica riff which calls to mind the smokey refrains of augustus pablo. next up is >untitled< by newcomer mat gates, a beatless slice of electronica whose understated melodies conjure up thoughts of late summer evenings of times gone by. on the flip, o brien and gates combine under the artist name kimble to bring you >epiphany<, led by a shimmering melody underpinned with haunting strings which combine to form an electro track of rare beauty. this diverse ep is completed with mat gates second contribution, >in a hole<, a drum n bass track with a disjointed, skeletal rhythm, sub bass drops and fragile, melancholy melody.

excellent disco flavoured deep spacin techhouse !! the seventh theomatic release represents the unbeatable fact that besides chilling during the last summer an-2 didnt give up his studio work. put together the wide open spaces, shining sun, seashore, cool breeze and warm summer nights, add some outdoor recording, phazed synthlines, rhodes piano, engage a good friend to cut the burnin guitar solo, put on the decent beats seasoned with smooth bass guitar and you get the >wide open< ep

here comes andreas heiszenberger (ware/normoton) with what seems like a requiem to a past love. the track is moody, twisted, dubby and full of intense ambivalent emotions, from love to hate and from pop to abstraction. then comes nass aka geiger (firm/teile/kindish) to give the original the treatment and what a treatment! surely more effective than your post-depression counselor, nass goes for a dub techno oddissey that will make hardwax enthusiasts drop their prozac prescription. on the flip side one of the men of the year, mr. efdemin (dial / liebe*detail / curle) comes with the definitive solution: go deep, then stand up and dance. efdemin presents us with a work of love, an unmistaken hommage to the sound of berlin. to finalise, andreas heiszenberger goes for the traditional medicine to relieve any heartache: deep house with a nod to lowtec, theo parrish and the dial ensemble. a truly perfect moment
