after sides from matthew burton, seuil and albert schwartz, sammy dees ultrastretch label returns in 2013 with volkan akin. a regular presence at berlin institutions like club der visionäre, akin has been slowly rolling out his brand of prickly, spaced-out club tracks since the end of the last decade, both under his own name and as v for volkan. but if volkan akin has up until now been unfamiliar beyond germany, his ultrastretch debut, voltage, featuring an absolute beast of a ricardo villalobos remix, stands to turn more than a few heads in his direction. densely packed and intricately constructed, voltage is an extended groove you can get lost in. cymbals ring softly amidst whirrs of faintly melodic clicks, scratches and voices. but at the center of akins churning, percussive arrangement lies a warm and weighty kick sure to keep dancers pinned to the floor. like so many great perlon records, voltage can be taken as a deeply considered exercise in sound design or as a deadly club track simultaneously, with akins musical sophistication and knack for an inviting beat working hand-in-hand. the original mix spends over 11 minutes unraveling, but as you fall further into the swirl of akins interlocking rhythms, youre likely to stop counting. a shorter constant voltage mix evokes sunrise, pulling back the originals heft to reveal gorgeous pads and hints of organic rhythm. ricardo villalobos, sammys longtime label mate at perlon and a producer who likely needs no introduction, digs deeper into the thump at the heart of voltage on his acdc remix. focusing on the originals wisps of melody, villalobos turns in a warm, zoned-in remix that feels of a piece with the singular techno trips found on his recent lp dependent and happy

the long walk starts with the main body of the groove, combining the drums, bass and strings into one morphed soundscape. the strings, as if breathing life in and out of every 4 bar phrase, rocks the listener back and forth, as the acid line is allowed to weave itself, almost freely, in and out of the percussive detailing. this builds a bed for the next progression of the string section to reveal themselves, majestically...

outstanding ep on the mighty dolly again, who keeps on delivering at the highest level. four equally strong tracks (of which three will be featured on steffis upcoming panoramabar mix cd) by dexter, third side, john barera & will martin, and label lady steffi herself. crossing the thin line of contemporary house & techno with slight hints of acid and proper us deep house... but basically all just can described as strong & plain groove, for maximum dancefloor delight. strong!

when gilles peterson reacts to a house record, you know it is a very special house record. deep and soulfull, love it - was what the 6 music dj thought of these two. if that wasnt enough, trickski described best things in life are free as one hell of a bomb. add in support from jimmy edgar, mark e, severino and dusky and this is looking like one of glasgow undergrounds most successful records to date. love games is the a bit of a wolf in sheeps clothing. what starts off as hooky percussive groove slowly morphs into a full vocal classic with swirling chords and a killer synth hook. severino dropped it at fabric recently and took the roof off the place. best things in life are free is a darker affair – all wandering acid lines and moody, emotional strings - but as trickski proved when they played it at watergate, just as effective.

die magie der unwissenheit... in 3 elektronischen neuinterpretationen wird sie zur hochgradig tanzbaren hymne für lebemenschen. als grundlage dient ein deutsch-spanischer song von illute. in viva la ignorancia besingt sie nämlich die nicht vorhandene notwenigkeit, immer alle details zu kennen. zur musikalischen begleitung kommen im ursprünglich auf lasvegas records erschienenen titel erdige bläserklänge, temperamentvolle gitarren und handgemachte rhythmik zum einsatz. eine mischung, die natürlich voll und ganz ins beuteraster von kombinat100 passt. für ihren remix hatte die illustre truppe eine klassische guitaren-session mit jörg schwenzer. das ergebnis ist eine faszinierend stimmige mischung aus strophen, refrains und eingängigem, elektronischem groove. der zusätzliche instrument mix liefert einen stark hitverdächtigen ausflug in kombinat100s einzigartiges wunderland der blubbernden bässe, tänzelnden delays und verspielten filtermodulationen. nicht zuletzt gelingt auch dem berliner duo dingdongdilly eine mitreißende vermählung von songstruktur, knackigen beats und zündendem club-schub.
