the 3rd release by scott grooves on his natural midi label, this is scotts first ever ep and color vinyl release. all 4 tracks possess a different mood and distinct raw edge, which plays well on this well balanced ep.track 1 dark blu speaks for itself, simply stated and deeply enriched. the relentless melody never lets go of the groove and the groove never lets go the melody. everything in this track harmonizes together perfectly.track 2 dna definitely disturbs the peace with vintage analog synth sounds. the old school sounding vocal sample echoes thruout the track that >detroit needs analog records< take a listen and decide if that echoes true!track 3 >it doesnt all have to be techy< as the title suggest there is know >techyness< here, its all about a deeply stormin groove that is enriched with warm melodic keys and a lovely guitar, yes i said guitar that altogether creates a feelin thats organic but not boring. track 4 decimalquivers in and out with a fm gritty synth stab, complete with minimal drums or as scott calls them >drims< which is the term scott uses for minimal drums. also present is a deep pad sound that brews slowly like an eruption. co-produced by panther, a name you will hear more about in the future

two of italys finest young producers serve up a new dose of minimal class. andrea roma & alberto fracasso reform under their own names after the success of their guise >delv & debox<, this time bringing fresh influences of chillout and hints of techno to a proven formula. first track >duracell< has a warm minimal groove with all the beeps and bass notes to keep dance floors rolling. up next is aptly named, >energizer<. this track throws in dirty and gritty influences, and is the perfrect compliment to the minimal offering on side a. the icing on the cake comes in the form of >volta<, a twisted yet melodic thumping track.

straight up bent techno. a fierce jacking groove with an outrageous sub-bass element and awesome live drumming. this one has echoes of funky industrial stuff like nitzer ebb but is 100% of the moment.

the mysterious electric man with a 10min+ slab of driving freestyle analogue wobblyness underpinned with a fat 808 electro beat. a body hypnotic trip for those who like to groove

plays by moonbootica, tapesh, toni rios, ascii disco... after the successful release with amir (groove rebels) >tummy tapes<, here is the follow up on tapas. excellent electrofied tech-house with an electric techno remix by jp montesonis from argentina

hot on the heels of acclaimed releases for four:twenty, dessous, sonar kollektiv, buzzin fly and his own diynamic usic, house producer du jour mladen solomun returns with his second stunning single for dessous after the sublime >sambada ep<. >woodstep< is a percussive trip to the heart of house, a tech-tinged groove peppered with strange tribal rhythms, evoking a midnight trek into the sultry tropical rainforest. on the flip, >no comment<, an analogue bubblebath of a bassline propels a techier cut, where detroit washes do battle with stepping keys, a crisp beat and belches of hissing smoke. halfway through, a spoken word sample ushers in lush echoic piano chords, taking the track to the next level. combining the heavily rhythmic bustle of classic house with the darker touch of techno in his own idiosyncratic & dancefloor - capti-vating way, solomun once agains shows why hes rapidly becoming one of the most in-demand producers in the game

brandnew hardtechno label from france calle >dark fork<. 1st production by dark fork (soundattack records / guild records)

alex krueger is ready for his next strike on dirt crew rec. the follow up to his excellent <push the patton< single is an absolute minimal killer, 3 quality tracks here and a different side of tigerskin for each taste. all tracks were produced with analogue equipment only which has become pretty rare these days ! the title track is a warm and reduced builder with an absolutely devestating guitar breakdown, people will remember this one for sure when they first hear it out on a big system. the second >wanted< is a typical tigerskin rave anthem, similar to his master hit >neontrance< this one is pure power on the dancefloor. the last track is more funky and has a great electro groove to it, this one has become a favourite in our sets over the last weeks and also features a beautiful break with great analogue sounds

killer modern house from depths of deep space. adam marshalls original mix takes swinging chicago drums and paints them a dark black, while chord stabs morph and evolve in a tough, organic style on this 11-minute journey. mike shannons impressive re-working tightens everything up and funks the hell out of the groove with sizzling dry hats, sub-bass ruminations, and one serious breakdown. one of his best remixes yet by far. both are serious club killers

after butch aka bee low, amir & the groove rebels the next resident dj of the 50 grad club mainz/germany starts producing: marcello nuncio and his production partner amir (groove rebels) turned out his first single charlie - a very warm, deep, and minimalistic electrohouse tune. on b1 taste t.s remix picks up that feeling, gives it much more energy and turns it into the perfect prime time tool. the overset mix on b2 takes the motiv of the song an transforms it to a massiv electro bomb like her first hit. on the dancefloor

nice price deal !!! art bleek is a name thats been doing the rounds for a few years now. the paris based producer never fails to live up to expectations whether it be deep minimal housers, downtempo jazzed-out loungers, broken beat or straight up hip hop, versatility is the mans game. hes recorded for labels such as rush hour & loungin and now for sick trumpet he brings californian vocalist charlie sputnik along to make the french connection. first up is all night, a mid-tempo nu-jazz shuffler that glides between broken beat and house with a killa groove, walkin bass lines, vocal hooks and scats a plenty from mr sputnik. support already from domu with plays on his 1xtra show zed bias takes the track and turns it into a new jersey house bumper with that added biaspheric twist weve all come to expect - big ! on the flip we have brothers & sisters, an electronic influenced houser with a bassline bigger than the eiffel tower and slicker than platini. with charlie sputnik again on vocals he provides the perfect narrative & melody to this dancefloor smasher ! the dub mix of this is something else…..anyone for dubstep electonica ? check

after >tono ep< their first single on telegraph acclaimed by international djs minimono are italian friends comes back with 4 strong minimal house tracks in the spirit of some daniel bell productions minimono is an artistic project who expresses the concept of modernity trough art and music by a collaboration between a dj and a musician respectively fabio della torre and ennio colaci. this sound concept is based on minimalism, ultra funky and groove. they offer here productions with experimental sonority but conserving a funky house spirit to a coherent result and, overall, ultra effective!

>beaten< is the first track to be released from random factor’s new album and comes with excellent art of tones remixes.carl a finlow again shows his history and pedigree as well as his refusal to jump on bandwagons and trends by producing timeless electronic music inspired more by kraftwerk, yello, stockhausen, tomita, prince, sakamoto, brian eno and the white noise than by what’s playing this summer at dc10. ralph lawson used >beaten< as the last track on his recent 2020vision compilation. this jerky sporadic groove gives a nod to the forefathers while holding down a beat anyone would be proud of. the single comes complete with remixes from art of tones, fresh after last year’s huge >praise<. this mystery outfit has now signed to 2020vision and this is the first of many bombs from them. art of tones take the track directly to the dancefloor and produce two versions that would slay berlin’s panorama bar at 9 on a sunday morning.

already supported by pan-pot, sebo k, anja schneider, kiki, karotte... simplicity is the name of the game on both tracks here. on >louder elvis<, the two unleash pure deep-house bounce over ominous, detroit-inspired pads, clean-as-a-whistle bleeps laser their way through a fog of dubbed-out delay. the tunes flow suggests a live session, with tumbling chords following their own whims, but theres nothing haphazard about it. this ones all about the afterhours, head down and moving steadily into the light. a vocal sample kicks off >radio graceland< but dont expect any bloated rock n roll theatrics. instead, van dowski and agnès lay down a slowly rolling groove with a latin touch and even a little bit of reggaetón lurch. hand drums dapple the landscape with faded colors, keeping the mood subdued—at least, until the beat gathers steam and bright, syncopated chords splash about. groaning analog noises push the energy restlessly forward, driving dancers to wild abandon: the track is as effective as it is unconventional. what else would you expect from two of switzerlands most uncompromising crowdpleasers

andrés first release for simple records >wanna feel< is all about the resonant, hypnotic bassline that steadily opens out to reveal more layers of harmony. little sounds and licks of melody dance around the bass whilst strings and stabs build the hook into one big crescendo. brooks melancholic strings, cleverly cut up the bassline and an eerie soundscape pushes the vibe of the original into a darker more sinister techno place….this is the lights out, heads down, touch me in the dark kind of groove that we love! finally >move< is an absorbing and patient deep house gem. plunging into a backdrop of prodded keys that subtly shift in shape and tone, a central synth melody climbs to euphoric climax before retiring back to waves of throbbing bass and rolling percussive loops

get ready for this summer palate ! laposer have come out of nowhere with the biggest club rocker for us since dubfires and guido schneiders plastikman remixes hits the decks last year.taste this african twist, floor rasing house anthemas it sweeps through momentous build ups and spiced with a touch of outstanding percussion and a whole lotta house and groove for good measure. the b-side is irresistible as well, yet even more modern. no digital sales, no minimal ! pure vinyl! both songs drip of the sweat of the dancefloor -- each swinging with a tight, static afro-beat/house/funk-fused propulsion

the 4th release on the label sees whistla wearing his 2-step influences proud with 2 tracks of off kilter garage beats, heaven oozes swing and groove. the bass line bubbles around a twisted vocal line whipping any listener into a frenzy which will see them swiveling across any dancefloor, studio or bedroom

definitely for the house headz in search of straight in yer face sensations, both the components of this ep are the perfect illustrations of an ongoing movement fusing the countless elements which have made the contemporary groove what it is since the arrival of the electronic kraut and disco in the mid 70s. from the infectious dubbyphonk deeptechy the pressure, to the essential discorgasmic vogue sounding like an unlikely jam featuring lil louis, les l.a. mix adams and the memorable john davis & the monster orchestra.

solid electro house on the aside while the flip comes with more tribal influenced techhouse.. incl dj ferris remix

truffle music returns with andrew allsgood at the helm again. the up and coming producer and longtime toronto dj shows his promise once again with this slow grooving funk masterpiece that stretches over 7 minutes. the song travels through many sections and passes, carried the entire time by a driving dub bassline and vocal. for the lovers of deep, dubby and funky house and disco. nycs drrtyhaze (tirk, gomma) are commissioned on the remix and deliver the goods with an up tempo hypnotic stormer that sizzles with its surreal energy and simplicity. drrtyhaze use few elements from the original other than the vocal, taking it into deeper territory with a faster tempo and groove and much more electronic feel to the originals organic vibe.

loved by alex from tokyo, alex attias, ame, dixon, marcus worgull, peter kruder, roland appel, tony lionni and many more.. fabrice lig, the prince of everything electronic, is back after his very acclaimed x-slaves. he delivers the goods once again, starting off here with chapter one in a purple raw trilogy. first up is the track, based around a jerky syncopated rhythm and a very dry kick, which remains light all the way. as usual, lig’s arrangements evolve progressively before they wipe us away with their screeching pads and synthetic melodies. a great mixture of minimal techno and detroit nostalgia. no doubt, the more efficient track produced by fabrice lig and hammered by dixon, ame, alex attias, quarion… much more aggressive, bump bump is built around fat analogue sounds, or acid noises if you prefer which seem to emulate screaming animals. one is easily carried away by an animalistic groove that keeps on building from the beginning till the end. it all ends with the very funky the riff pourpre, a perfect crossover between metro area and parliament. the retro sounds sit nicely on a big fat beat, the kind which lig excels in.

inner thoughts is a rolling acid track with off beat snares and broken hi hats while space disco is a deep detroit esque, mid tempo slice of electronic gem. sonja moonear (karat, katapult) has added her own dimension into the release, having reworked space disco into an obscurely deep, heavily bassed broken piece of dance floor wonder. also on remix duties, lasimo (senator/germany) has taken the original from down town detroit to a parisian night club, dropping the main acid line out but manoeuvring the percussive groove and gentle pads to an altogether new kind of experience.

incl argy remix !! tokyo s rising star ryo murakami has already put his diverse, electronic sound on the map with the >rise< ep on dessous last year, and received great praise for his track >my soul<, snapped up by steve bug for the fabric mix series, which was piled high with atmosphere and dark, club energy. his next 12 includes two new tracks, the title cut being >down the sky<, cooly influenced by old school house, but also more recent european forays into night music. ryo demonstrates a heavy aptitude for stripped down futurism, with staccato, jilted beats, joined by layers of padded synth structures, looming somewhere between light and darkness. the b side, ‚coke‘ (no questions asked) welcomes another one of ryo‘s extended journeys, this time a stronger, peak time groove which never lets off, and builds around layers of spaced out, pitching fx. brain-tingling pitching synths heat things up, before laying down a super-funk hook that melts on top of the beats irresistibly. ryo then leads us head-first into a series of spac d out, jacked-up movements, characterised by risque, feminine vocal snippets. poker flat‘s young greek maestro, argy, creates a stunning hi-tech remix of ‚down the sky,‘ complete with mesmeric dub influenced chord stabs and tripped out washes of delay. once again carrying on the vibe of the original, but twisting it into an altogether different beast, argy takes ryo‘s warm synth stabs and shapes the remix into a slow paced yet pumping club tool.

the chart buster martin solveig was glad when his roman friend and colleague lorenzo rumi called upon him to return to the roots of house music, starting from the early, glorious chicago scenario and its immediate and infectious groove. so far away came to life, as an impulse with only 2 days of hectic studio session and a few liters of coffee. the guys worked on a stricltly old school basis, then added a full vocal and new elements to bring the fine charme of todays house, turning so far away in a contemporary composition rich of surprises and thrilling breaks. the performance of australian soul singer rachel claudio gives a touch of attitude with passionates and unforgettable vocals. definitely another epic stone in the b2f wall!
