house rework of nik kershaws wouldnt it be good!!!

nice price deal !!! official release !
mind-blowing singles, eps, remixes (for the likes of simian mobile disco, little boots, royksopp, lykke li, au revoir simone…), a quickly-growing label (fondation records), and the night is his in most of the worlds major cities: danton eeprom had it all, to the exception of a long-playing record. after making a name for himself with hits like confessions of an english opium-eater, grindhouse or face control, it was time to go off the beaten path and show the way once again. would he go for a fairly logical sweat-ridden dancefloor riot? not precisely. not only. danton would make a revolution of his own, in dandy mode.
three words that will soon be on everyones lips: yes is more. in a cloud of smoke, over a tight booty beat and keys delving deep into thirty years of electronic music, the french londoner sings for good and is all axes out on >thanks for nothing<, making things clear from the very start.

okains dj career kicked off back in 1999, when at the tender age of 15 he began spinning regularly at parties. influenced by french legend laurent garnier, it wasnt long before he was offered his first residency. since then, he has gone on to play at the hottest of paris nightspots, including the rex club and social club. through playing at the now famous dimuschi parties he teamed up with paul ritch. after some time studying in sound engineering, the pair released their first ep under their handycraft alias on kickboxer. since the success of that >le bal masque< ep, okain has gone on to release on labels including robotronic, bpitch control, four twenty, tsuba, quartz and of course jetaime, and has been fully blooded in the art of touring. gigs have flooded in, and his travels have seen play many of europe s finest nightspots. his >blackrock< ep on quartz earlier this year found fantastic success with so many of you, and today our good friend is back, with the awesome >acrobat<.
the original sees okain take the warm, techy path. a lo-slung groove leads us into the melodic strings. matched with sharp efx, strong beats and a demonic laugh, this is a sure fire winner. first on remix duty is label head alex dee. toughening proceedings, alex creates a driving, somewhat tribal work out. relentless beats work brilliantly with the now chopped vocal, to create dramatic tension that builds to a crescendo in the break. a fantastic mix. a great package already, and one that just got even better with the edition of daniel mehlharts incredible rework. the frankfurt producer is hot property right now, and this mix showcases perfectly just why. deep, warm and moody, with huge helpings of classic detroit touches, the originals strings are accompanied by weighty synth stabs, to stunning effect. essential.

>fall into me< finally marks the release of the last and keenly awaited single from jay haze aka fuckponys masterpiece >let the love flow<. the album title says it all - >fall into me< sounds incredibly light, yet catchy and full of energy - a free fall onto the worlds softest pillow. this is how house must sound to lovers. house with soul can be taken literally in this case, as jay has called upon the expert support of laila tov and chela simone. the latterenjoys an international standing and has already lent her sublime, very unique voice to kikis hit single >good voodoo<. here she combines inextricably with jays compact sound aesthetic and makes >fall into me< positively shine.with its atmospheric intro and broad musical range, the original on the a-side sees a welcome reappearance of certain must-have features which will have the hairs on your neck standing up... the accompanying video was shotby emmy nominee daniel michael gahr with chela simone and laila tov in the woods of san francisco.
marco passarani has done the honours on the flip side. a workaholic from the eternal city of rome, marco is the linchpin of the italian techno scene. he produces under the aliases js pool, monomorph and ambit 3 for the labels skam, hymen, clone and peacefrog, and also runs his own labels plasmek, pigna and nature records marcos >fall into me< remix is unmistakably influenced by hiscarefully nurtured detroit roots. however, he employs these stylistic elements very discreetly, retains beats, melody and vocals in his arrangement, takes out a little of the decorative padding from the album, then finally hits us with a wonderful, trancey eight-tone sequence to send us into the realm of dancefloor dreams for ever.

after the amazing success of the previous feature funk volumes here we have a new bomb!

another effortlessly excavated and amended quartet of surefire, cone rattling club cuts. all four tracks have been, as ever, lovingly reduced to their bare essence, ensuring they re as indispensible as the mangled label they re on alongside the much hyped forthcoming release on dfa ray mang has been behind a plethora of releases on labels like noid, fiasco, u star, nuphonic etc etc over the years and has cemented his reputation as an amazing producer in his own right as well a studio engineer extraordinaire for the likes of the idjut boys, glimmers & many more. ray has delivered yet again!! as always, only one limited pressing will be available - you know the deal!

will eastman has been holding down dcs clubs for the better part of a decade with his sensationally successful bliss dance parties. his remixes have received critical praise, along with his dj sets in dc, across the u.s. and in europe. his first foray into original dance music, feelin to be released as a 12inch on plant, is a groovy house/disco/rave tune that gets reworked by his good pals nadastrom, tittsworth & nakassis, and dmerit. he and jesse tittsworth are opening a new club in dc, u street music hall, slated for early 2010. wherever eastman goes, insane dancing follows.

right on the heels of our previous bass/electro smasher, we hit you with the most anticipated house/disco record of recent times. helsinki 78-82 is a project by top billin team members flipper & koobra, whove always been active and always been down to bring something new to the label. while flipper is part of the top billin dj team and has always been the most high-flying of us, so no wonder the the new 12inch is some musical bliss thatll leave you feeling that good good. this is what we call big city house music, when youre cruising the streets at night with the top down - no words needed. in a manner michael mann would be proud of. so lifelike is a sort of remake of lifelikes great so electric (under permission), although this time it comes with vocals from our great helsinki new wave partners villa nah. if you are in need of a new end-nighter, this is it. cruising is a tune full of that pumping big city feel with driving drums and great synth work that will get them ladies on the floor and will fit into those funky house / modern disco sets. we even have a video for it, but its a different kind of cruising than you think (no al pacino)…

deep a & biri have been involved in the tel aviv house scene for some time. with this 3 track ep plus digital bonus track they give their debut now.
>twisted tango< is the most stripped down of all three tracks and a real cool groover. one of these tracks that grow enormously with volume and space. these two guys have got a good vision of how dance music should be to clad the clubbers in cotton batting. their cool way of transmitting indifference has always been the carrier of sensuality and sexiness in entertainment and it does create a certain kind of peppermint stench here. the vocals stabs in this one work like dubby elements which deep a & biri drop like things dropping out of your pocket.
>mischievous< is a perfect bassline monster... deep and heavy with a genius >pam pam< vocal stab. we dont know where these samples come from but they are luscious as hell. welcome to the pleasure dome!
>hine gama< is as cool as the two other tracks but but a little more laissez-faire fair. we dont think that anybody will be able to resist this bright light brown colour it shows with all its reflections of intensive sunbeams shining in.
this release fits perfectly to the last release on trapez ltd.

after releasing tevo howards >move< hhyr is back with more music from the howard family. this release sees tevo producing his father rick howard again. after working together on the first beautiful granville release about fourteen / without your love, the duo returns with the >i wont lay back<. vocal chicago house just as we llike it deep and raw! i wont lay back is possibly the best track they have worked on so far. comes as original and underground mix. the b-side features a remix of about fourteen. classic stuff! raw and dirty house music. when music is this good, let there be renaissance! our house is your rush!

every year hundreds of thousands of dance records are being made and released. with the output from dance producers at an all-time high and with so many records crossing over it takes something a bit special to break-through from underground groover to worldwide mover. 2010 is the year of >sidney samson – riverside (lets go!)< on data records.
the facts above dont lie, this isnt just a dance record, its a dancefloor phenomenon and theres good reason for the comparisons with >day & night< by kid cudi vs. crookers and fedde le grands infamous >put your hands up for detroit<. its got exactly the same appeal and has had exactly the same effect, i.e. unstoppable support and praise from the coolest underground djs all the way up to the global superstar djs and via every european summer holiday resort. sidney samson is a name you simply cannot ignore right now.

2005 20:20 vision release, made by art of tones.

next ultraphat hypnotic minimal techno from berlin. made for full peak time pleasure again and again and again. this guys are wonderful. after their great releases in the last year, they will start a good new trip. support comes from: hot chip, ellen allien, gregor tresher, gusgus, jeff samuel, hugo, the mountain people, reynold, matt star, marcel knopf, dario zenker and many many more...

with the two producers marc o tool and criss source germany s electronic music scene has two of the worlds leading producers. with their worldwide dj presence both are counting to the most successful german music acts. working together since 1997 under different aliases like ballroom, motorcraft, black eyed or good fellas they had numerous releases on labels like marco s own labels underworld and mauritius of course. while criss is working as a&r at marc s labels mauritius and hosts his own radio shows on radio essen and proton radio.com, marc s productions appeared on different compilations like sensation white or ministry of sound the annual 2009. after their latest smasher on circle james at last ,now they are coming around with their next slamming two-tracker.

for his latest project theo parrish teams up with a constantly changing cast of soul/jazz musicians and singers. some of his heaviest, earthiest house-grooves so far combined with angelic vocals and hot live instrumentation.

another peak into the mind of the young and very talented producer kyle hall. 5 tracks ranging from house to boogie, all warped by halls freeform style. especially that dunk jiggla is fun ... reminds of the good old dance mania days! this is the third release on his own imprint, wild oats. check!

paul du lac with his follow up on his limited clone x release. 3 tracks that are a mixture of the good old dj international days, joey lewis and k-alexi shelby and a little bit of that dutch unit moebius sound. solid jacking house tracks!

here at the exprezoo headquarters we like to keep looking forward and to search for new and undiscovered talents, but we also like to go back to the sounds of our roots and, its not a secret, we are in love with neapolitan techno. blend these ingredients, stir for a while, and voila the fourth release on our catalog, by rio padice. actually, the kid isnt really a new one, since he s already had releases on welt,mosaiko, metroline limited and exprezoo digital besides being half of the new and hyped horacio project along with massi dl, but hes part of the new generation of neapolitan producers who keep going down the path started by marco carola and danilo vigorito. the a-side, don dragone, has a techno mood that we didnt feel for some time and that takes us back to when hardgroove was leading the dancefloors, updating and actualizing its sounds, while on the b-side elm street is made to satisfy the classiest tastes, taking the atmosphere towards a good-for-every-purpose dub techno. the last track on the ep, leviatano, keeps up the feeling we fell in love with on question and zenit, with funky percussions and sunny, warm synths.

>all tracks are great! will definately play it... pianos on the beach is amazing.<
- robin (david gilmour girls)
>yeah, as i said, i think its your best edit 12 so far. the choice of tracks is great, >pianos on the beach< is the kind jam youd like to hear on a dancefloor late at night, i guess this could have been played by francis grosso or mancuso. same for >look at you<, fantastic track, very emotionnal, whis has something of an anthem. keep on sending me such a thing. (btw, i m a fan of canyons label, great stuffs)<
-cosmo vitelli
>this is the kind of release that makes me excited to dj again...and again. theres something here for the beginning, middle, and end of a great night.<
-alex frankel (holy ghost!)
>loving that piano jam mister renault - perfect to drop just when you have em where you want em towards the end!<
-jim stanton (horse meat disco)
>nice one jacques, sounding good man!<
-mark e
>mr. renault is on a roll!!!!! seeing as everyone and their mother is doing edits these days, it comes as no surprise than the man takes it to the proverbial next level with this ep.<
-my cousin roy (wurst music)
>love these - more great edits from jacques. have been playing them out with great results!<
-prince language

played by: richie hawtin, raresh, cisco ferreira (the advent), matt star, xpansul, nicolas duvoisin, mirco violi, frank leicher, sebastian altstadt, locke aka dermaptera, sean o neal (someone else), jon gurd ...
igor jadranin aka en-tropic signs his new ep – >between two extremes<, for the record label underground limited.this release clearly proves igors unmatched talent and maturity in music production. the lead theme of this ep >between two extremes< – a very deep and powerful theme, carefully broken by rhythm and still a gentle and emotional jazzy looped composition – is surely my personal favorite from this release.cooperation with marko vukovic is embodied in the track >back again< – a minimal deep house filled with rhythm, not the kind of rhythm produced by percussions and other drumming instruments but rather by a cut vocal and dirty synth, which breathe soul into this theme.
>zero loss circuit<, which has an expressed club spirit, is the ideal piece for building an atmosphere in a club. igors music definitively deserves a spot on every good djs list.
(zoran petkovski review)

back in the day, when i discovered the music from reggie dokes and the psychostasia label i felt something similar as when i listened for the first time the music from lil louis at the end of the 80s. i mean... is this music really house? it must be because all the good househeads play and respect his stuff... perhaps just for that different and unique way of make house...

this is the first production by kenneth christiansen, dj, producer and label boss of echocord. he teams up with his good friend dennis bog, which is known for his unique label baum and baum ltd plus his own productions as resoe.
>ofetriade< is a powerful techno-track, can remind of marcel dettmann and mathew jonson. the remix is made by ben klock from berlin, owner of klockworks and resident at berghain. amazing peaktime techno!
>synthese< is a mixture of dubstep and techno - for the fans of deadbeat, martyn and peverelist.

blackstrobe are back from beyond. their newest dance floor gems are a foray back into the darkest realms of disco with their unique blend of boogietrance, softgoth, gaybiker house music. on their latest release they employ deep gothy hooks that match perfectly with a nostalgic italo flair and dark disco pulses. dancefloor zombies and casual listeners should find these retro-futurist tracks akin to the worlds of john carpenter and the twilight zone. trevor jackson >great release< // chloé >good tracks, will play them< // dj hell >great single<

super strong package !! played by richie hawtin, loco dice, joris voorn, anja schneider, laurent garnier, timo maas, butch, audiofly, deetron…
after some remix and not badly of time to prepare its new releases. acumen is back on his own structure. meanwhile, he was elected best newcomer of the year2009 by richie hawtin. all that we can say is that we are very proud. acumen presents its new ep, >collection part 1<.

the beekeepers are the latest signing to the j funk family joining kraak & smaak, skeewiff, smoove & turrell, dr rubberfunk, soopasoul, max sedgley and all good funk alliance on the jalapeno roster. with stable mates like that there was only one way the bee funk ep was gonna go - a mixture of upfront party breakbeat hip hop and one of the most beautifully widescreen ambient breakbeat tracks since clubbed to death.

the titel track rush me fuses the steinbergian house style with the lo-fi charm of the roaring 20s. it comes over slightly poppy but with a very relaxed and laid back groove. steinberg at his best! format:bs rush me remix, that has been reduced to the original vocals comes over trippy and with a good dose of bongos making it into a grooving party track. steinbergs es la vida is an elegant reduced tech house beauty. the rhythmic, percussive vocals hit on a very monotone but kicking bass line. a touch of a warm night by the sea in spain! format:bs interpretation of es la vida concentrates on the vocals and some of the percussion from the original, and combines steinbergs basics with a hypnotic synth-structure that boils up in the last third of the track until it finally explodes! all tracks arent scared to admit that theyre aiming for the peak time. 4* different styles. kick ass!

pushing the envelope even further and blurring the lines between jazz, funk, trip hop and soul - carte blanche 2 aims to please with its unique blend of rhythms suited to the most discerning tastes of todays music connoisseur!

third release for fabio giannellis label, this time from the italian santorini, that proposes his next strike after having released eps on labels like upon you, bond and his own recycle records. to complete the release there are two very good remixes from uner & coyu (dyinamic, great stuff) and ues (resopal / blabla). have a good listen!

with the release of their new single, >you got me burnin<, the long wait for the new track from the dj / producerteam, milk & sugar has finally ended. as in their last single >stay around<, the munich duo has skillfully intertwined their typical house grooves with the soulful voice of ayak, who once again delivers a dynamic, energeticperformance. milk & sugar reconfirms with this new song that for a great house track, not much more is needed than a driving beat, a phat bassline, piano and a good hook.
last october, their previous co-operation with ayak, >stayaround<, reached top positions on the club charts in england. this, despite the fact that the track had alreadybeen released in 2007…

after a serie of very well selling techhead releases, this will be selling even more! a.paul with a solo release on this greek label. he is famous for his well crafted uplifting techno that works so good on the dancefloor. driving beats and subtle edits are the key to success for this portugees mastermind! watch out for things to come...
