we keep the good-times rolling along on the kolour mothership with the debut ep of deep-disco don debonair. we have been taking notes on this guy since we heard his first tune and ever-since, he just seems to move from strength to strength with each tune that is released. needless to say, when the opportunity arose for us to debut his first full-on solo ep, it was the epitome of a no-brainer for us. debonair shows us all facets of his musical capability with a melting pot of music ranging from the traditional debonair deep-disco sound to slo-mo beat-down business, deep-fused funk, with a dash of beautiful baleric sprinkles for good measure.

kht 002 comes from affie yusuf, a longtime legendary producer from london, who has released tons of tracks solo and in groups on labels such as ferox, force inc and many more. meeting affie yusuf for the first time via internet was like meeting an old friend. a sympathy for the devil was our common sense and after hearing some of his unreleased music it was obvious we needed to get closer. for his first release on killekill he has sent us so many good tracks it was not easy for us to compile the first release. but here we go now with the >i m free ep<, a 12 inch full of house as we like it. raw as shit and full of fun, funk and energy!

sex tags mania warehouse find! this might not be one of those popular ware house finds you run into these days, but still, from a storage of a friend of a friend this got dug out. almost brand new but never sold in any amount - a german-french(?) 12 as great as the summer. straight to the b, you know that track you hear, not on any given sunday, but only the exeptionally good ones, the track that sonically floats around, though maybe being to euphoric, still gathers everybody in the area to some sort of silent agreement of peace. usually these musical pieces are found as single items on flee markets if you re a proper digger or have straight out beginners luck. maybe the world has turned up side down, because this beauty has german lyrics (with an instrumental following).

focus on cosmic club !!! for this 12th release, we give you the opportunity to grab 4 fantastic trax done by one of todays hottest producer: june. tasmpikos fronas has been signed this year on argys label these days & delivered one of the most astonishing first album weve heard for a while called cytheria. he has already been remixed by dj sprinkles. he sent us his brand new tracks & we felt it was so good that we decided to release them straight ! his sound is firmly rooted in proto-house and acid. a whirlwind of crystalline electronics , sunshine-bright melodies and playful synthesizer riffs (with a dash of original chi-town jack thrown in),it comes on like a particularly cosmic jam session between plone, daniel wang, claro intellecto and larry heard. on the moon. on this evidence, fronas is clearly one to watch. and to add to the magic, we got an amazing remix done by the great & super talented italian producer: simoncino. this is surely going to be one of the biggest releases this year, stay tuned!

inspired by the teachings of the earons (thats .22, .18, .33, .69 and .28 to the uninitiated, see www.earons.net for more background), a splinter group was formed earlier this year, with the express mission to bring back the message and connect it to a whole new audience. >land of hunger< is given a 2012 reconstruction from the cosmologist, a sturdy rework performed by the mysteriously concealed outfit, who identify themselves only as .40, and .44. whilst they are heavily influenced by earons beliefs on positive energy, which they seek to share, .40 + .44 are quick to point out they have no links with the earlier incarnation from 28 years ago, but felt a compelling force to unearth it once more. the universe knows when the time is right, and frankly the original broadcast was just too good to not want to fashion a 2012 edit, so a new chapter begins ...

the special edition lp on double 180 gram vinyl in gatefold cover.

this single-side vinyl, pressed in 100 cps limited edition, is the happy ending of one of the most played tracks from our friends djs and strictly grooves followers. >sweet pussy pauline< is a classic, an hit that increases over the time, in months of gigs between berlin and reggio emilia, london and garda lake. our job is to make good music and share it with those who appreciate it, but this time we have done much more, because sweet pussy pauline has become a true piece of art in the hands of tatiana festi, who designed directly on record, label to label, 100 unique pieces. tatiana is a very renowed artist, becoming bigger and bigger thanks to her brilliant style, its creatures, its sensual girls, with languid eyes and provoking mouths. and though in acid colors, bright and pop, painted with a meticulous technique and surprising signs of felt pen, all have something of the femme fatale and at the same time, victims of love.

very good to see that cuatro records is back on vinyl. the artist duo javier orduna and inigo oruezabal (also released on resopal, pong musiq, regular etc) show the two pearls of their unique style, classy deep techno. the atmosphere of the track pray 4 the value is very visionary and deep, as where the rhythm of the track dolls of mud is more repetitive with a catchy groove. definitely, a release that can be played by professionals who understand the dance floor.

on >get it together< we get an uplifting feel-good monster that will go down perfectly at the summer jams. with extra live elements and kons tasty production this will surely be one of the biggest tunes of the summer. on the flipside we might go down in bpms but instead max out on the love factor with a bumpin leroy burgess kinda two stepper.
if love is your thing, kon gotcha back!

adriatique is back with their second release on diynamic. again the two talented producers from switzerland created a really impressive ep that seems to fit just perfect for the upcoming summer! the opening track,deeper love, really sets the direction of the whole ep and will make you fall in love with it! a really nice and warm synthesizer combined with that catchy deeper love vocal and a funky picked guitar makes this tune unique. the second track by your side first of all persuades with that coltish sequenzer baseline. after the first break the tune unfolds its whole power. its again the nice combination of a deep, down pitched vocal, funky bended chords and a great synthie line that works just excellent together. a great one for the dancefloor! with motions, the third and title track of the new ep, adriatique deliver another harmonic tune that goes under the skin. its the slowest track on the ep. massive bass tones, groovy shuffled hihats and a deep, repetetive vocal loop result in a wonderful, warm track. the fourth and last track body moving brings the ep to an good end. with a nice vocoder voice the tune gets a touch of the 80s sound. and again a bouncy baseline delivers this special groove and guarantees to shake the floor.

heavy aquatic house tracks by japanese producer mitsuaki komamura. slow and heavy tracks ranging from more electronic to dubby grooves. out there with releases of kassem mosse, pittmann and the likes. seriously good release!

hot release by neil landstrumm & mat consume, who did a first shit & cheap release on scandinavia in 2001, and 2012 seems a good year to tear it down with a totally unexpected raw & raving electro banger for the dutch shipwrec label. inspired by 60s surf & garage and later punk & wave, the drum machines are set to give us the essential kicks, claps and hihats we need for that oldschool electro vibe. the trashmens surfin bird gets a remake dipped in acid and with shadowlands pre-dubstep skills take control, but nevertheless, all tracks have those wobly basslines typical to landstrumm’s music combined with unique vocals that make this release something special and definitely standing out! this release comes in a sick designed three colour silkscreen printed sleeve, limited to 300 copies including a download code to redeam the digital tracks from the label
