pounding and funky stanny fransson techno 4 tracker

tweaked monosynth lines and rich polyphonic pads are featured on most tracks, and single note patterns of various timbre often reinforce the grooves. the title track on the a-side is as simple as effective and the name relates to some of the percussion parts which reminded them of a rodent digging a hole in the ground. first on the b-side is >if i was a man<, a slow-down groover with a dark and funky atmosphere, inspired by barbara alcindor s abstract spoken words, becomes more and more twisted towards the end of the track. last but not least, >zig zag<, which is named after the wobbly monosynth phrase which is being tweaked throughout the tune. all tracks speak of sweet, riding rhythms and nights full of action. pure quality

supported by: mark henning (soma), anthony collins (freak n chic), james priestley, sian (karmarouge), ptoile, daniela stickrofth , luciano esse (kailash), gavin herlihy (mood music) xpansul (minus),.. the sonotheque project was created at the end of 2005 by two producers david campanini and alexi dendias.they managed to create tracks with an experimental, obscure, sexy and spiritual feeling, remaining on that hype wave which is changing the fertile ground of techno and house. their style is a blend of digital and analogue sounds, groovy rythms and carefully researched melodies , with an aftertaste of jazz and funk….

dortmunds very own ‚diskobär, the inimitable ante perry prepares for new double cd long-player extravaganza , flashing disco sounds, with two cuts exclusively produced with close studio comrades tube & berger. these hot co-productions between the long-time buddies simply cannot fail to get the party going. the overwhelming anthemic stir of human you is evident for the very start, but its true dancefloor potential can only be understood after the full ecstatic wonder of the breakdown pours out over a large crowd. super-constructed tech-discohouse is where its at in this high intensity, high drama, big room flashing disco monster. the curiously titled walthervondervogelweide on the other hand is a more brooding beast altogether. working the underlying tension and keeping the pressure tightly locked to the floor its a dangerous late night dancefloor workout... left in the wrong hands this could seriously damage your ability to leave the dancefloor! finally fellow dortmund heavy-calibre producer peter jürgens works his remixing magic and twists human you into a housed up, long building affair that operates on a more stripped, subterranean level to begin with but bursts out above ground with carefully timed energy. warm driving beats and pads layer to reveal the identifying melody of the original.

nice price deal !!! brand new label from this collective of leeds based djs and musicians who are devoted to the balearic and cosmic disco cause. their legendary parties have been a fertile breeding ground for a slew of top quality original tracks and amazing re-edits of lost classics !

what a back to back funk winner... we had quite a dilemma on these two... we love the original tracks so much, that it was dificult to chose wether to re edit them or just release them as they were... we couldnt figure out, so we decided to reach a middle ground. a side is totaly redone, with extra programed breaks and clavinet hooks for maximum pleasure, as b side gets the release totaly as the original 12inch intrumental version (yes the one on the original indie release, not the one from the later major repress)... well... totally... not quite, the rythm has been straighten and quantize, so now you can mix it...

big with dave clarke, karotte, the advent, paul dailey and aldrin (singapore)! marco bailey might be a global player since many years, but he has never forgotten about supporting talent from his belgian home ground. on the next mb elektronics marco is introducing davy dee from liege with the track >koala<. its supported by two wicked remixes from redhead (red factory, terminal m) and joseph capriati (cmyk, frankie).

!!!!!!strictly limited to 500 copies!!!!!! together with stefan goldmanns debut cd the transitory state, macro releases a strictly limited box set containing five 7? records holding the electroacoustic album voices of the dead. with his releases for innervisions, perlon and macro stefan goldmann has been a key figure at the cutting edge of post minimal techno and the renewal of house music. this album is a distinctively different affair though, reaching far beyond the scope of dancefloor electronics. starting a trilogy of concept albums, stefan goldmann searches for the common root of all music in an electroacoustic setting. from this album turret is already renowned as the intro sequence of richie hawtins groundbreaking de9 transitions mix compilation and was also commissioned by the biblioteque nationale de france for the imeb phonoteque public collection. the artist explains: at first sight we recognise upfront elements like a melody or rhythmic pattern, which we associate with a certain piece or style of music, but there is tension between two notes, hard-to-define background information that at a closer look is found everywhere - within the music of coltrane and stravinsky, death metal and 9th century byzantine chants. if there is anything like a total, secret common ground, than its this information lurking in the background. these are the voices of the dead, the heritage of an endless line of ancestors brought forward through the centuries. i tried to make these elements audible as clearly as possible. really like this weird space ambient one. ive put katorga and izo already into my final scratch computer and have been playing them! (richie hawtin on voices of the dead) record release event at berghain / panorama bar berlin on september 4th, 2008, feat. ricardo villalobos, mika vainio (pan sonic) and ulrich schnauss (tbc).

enjoying success earlier this year on splank! with organ dementia/restless, groove allegiance have also recently remixed torpedo boys the disco song for lounge records and break the boxs ghostlicker for ground level. this latest number super squelch has already been doing the business at recent groove allegiance gigs, the title giving plenty away, as wonky lfo noises provide the fills, whilst stomping beats and a twisted electro hook provide the solid dancefloor groove. canadian stalwart macca, head honcho of invasive records, turns up to provide the remix. catching the eye of splank! with his recent remixes of dj dans chop shop (instereo) and robb g & the phat conductors heavy, the macca sound has a hint of breakbeat mixed with a big room electro flavour, and with this remix he stays true to his word. the beats are tight, the fills and edits feel quite breaky, and the hook is hypnotic. this ones perfect for the big arena & just in time for festival season.

mri first came to prominence in 2000 with the release of the ground breaking rhythmogenesis on forcetracks and his acclaimed mille plateaux productions. due to the massive reaction drawn from the contribution on the latest 12, take kare not acid, mri returns back to the resopal imprint with two new tracks to redesign the past and further the future. title track bateau is a banging builder that is reminiscent of the current house flavored tracks but resonates the touch of classiness and depth of mid 90s reduced techno arrangements. decayed bassdrum, pad, chords and a break - distinctly marked with modern hyper percussive tendencies, based in between house and techno soundscapes this a-side is a pure bomb. the flipside ivre by all means reaching the dancefloors of today. cascading rhythms build subtly behind the fuelled drive of bass, and druggy vocals fully defined by mris signature formula. all in all, bateau ivre tunes up in fresh formula towards techy driven reduced microhouse, bring through a soothing and completely refreshing 12that will be sure to please old and new fans alike. ltd. stock

finest summer vocal house tune, incl. club, marca club, clean groud system and club party mix and well known miss understood samples

2x 15mins of ultra hypno house!! big with ricardo villalobos, prins thomas, laurent garnier,… unarguably, the best way to prepare umu is inside a hole in the ground. go find a nice flat land, preferably your mother in laws lawn, gather friends, ask them to bring wine. youll need a well amplified turntable playing mania #11 on a loop. cut the grass using a flat shovel, four or six square pieces of 50 cms, lifting the grass with its roots and some soil, move aside. now you have a clean area of about 1.5 mts square, dig in it to a depth of about 50 cms (come on, it will make you sweat profusely but you need this shallow grave to feel the magik of easter islands umu!).

indie/electro fusion!! includes phones remix

big bang the birth of our solar system, our ground wire and adjacent luminary. the universe is a collective of wild mixed atom constellations. the big bang ep is a part of the boundless expanse of electronic producing, the 4 different artists shows the polychronic function of analogue and synthetic sound design. the already known eintakt artists einklang freier frequenzen and hugo duran / kong and the new members linus quick (released also on traum-schallplatten) and christoph schindling (released on dreiton) created this mix of atmospheric deep techno and asyetic minimal tunes

continuing in our quest to break some new ground and bring some new sounds to the fore, universal vibes presents the onaz. standing out from the crowd, with a bit of a unique sound and outlook, the onaz is a new artist who we think fits right in with the leftfield vibe we are going for with the universal vibes label. the onaz mainly subscribes to nudisco music influenced by emperor machine, lindstrom and prins thomas however, his production of the form is more minimal.this sound combines the deep electronic disco stylings of lindstrom, prins thomas et al with the edgy techtronics and beat trickery of seiji and the west london mob. resulting in a deep, minimal edgy dancefloor led sound that stands out from then crowd

viper xxl and dj lukas join the manic pets for another distorted nightmare into the sounds of the ever growing mayhem that is dogs on crack vs. katz on k. ruin the dark is the 1st twisted output delivering the usual offerings of intense chaos ground together with the dark hearings of a mental ward. if you think you are the dogs bollox think again - ruin the dark is set to separate the pitbulls from the poodles..

synket 002 hits the ground running with its second release titled >specter< s trip ep by newly donned dance floor craftsman and learned jazz musician marc neyen. remixers aboard this package include the widely successful liebe ist cool (electric avenue, bruchstuecke) who have been keeping crowds at cocoon and around europe rocking for some time now - and kabale und liebe (area remote, meerestief, multi-vitamins) who has been drawing huge response from his recent release >mumbling yeah< on area remote

with this release the spring buds sprout on upon you. lee jones, member of mymy and daniel dreier have delivered two great early blossoms which- like we have expected, holds no house-spuds under the ground. inspired by the facet richness of the sounds in >a man< on a1, marco resmann went on to plant his special note of funkyness on b1

following their debut release, which featured remixes from cyrus (tectonic) and elemental (hotflush) on the flip, subeena and dot?s second release chases dubstep further along uncharted paths. the contagious and tribal sounds of subeena?s >circular< and the bass-driven and edgy yet minimal-influenced >chemical waste< by dot mark out the ground the label intends to explore

minimal detroit techno. the cryovac machine intends to find common ground between alternate views of the minimal style. this composit will reflect the attitude and ingenuity of detroits resident noise makers. team cryovac begins with michelle hermann (hej/ punisher)dark and aloof, minimal 4/4 techo lead by a crisp snare and followed by an arrangement of restless bass, beeping subliminal vocals and shifting kikcs+tics. andy garcia(docile) offers a clamoring,4/4 floor cut that beings with a waiver, is at points over come by the nod and incessantly beeps+rattles on after a surly funk!

already a secret weapon of ricardo villalobos, richie hawtin & paco osuna with the fourth release the still young and succesful label enters the race. this time co-labelowner federico molinari, who already delivered a remix (kreiskollaps) on the first oslo ep, showcases his skills. enerverende is dubby house tool, which slowly develops its effect and finally as a damian schwartz remix takes the hightime direction. the last one is takk brett, which is being carried by cleverly composed vocalbits and percussive elements. it breaks the ground, which oslo is following since the beginning. modern house music.

shadowfax is the breeding ground for promising artist accompanied by some of the best producers to date. here we have the core of eastern bloc techno of this very moment. from serbia we have marco nastic and marko milosavljevic aka the space explorers and dejan milicevic and from bosnia comes sinisa tamamovic! manual and adult label boss paul hazendonk toppes things off with a superb remix job

the blue label returns with count funkula. the answer may surprise you is a deep latin flavoured grooving soulful vocal gem with great drum programming. flip for the irresistible shaky ground and the smooth boogie down a must have

the record was born too early, when house music was still very underground, so consequently it passed into house music history with only a very few discerning djs and collectors owning original us copies. in keeping with chicagos musical history, one of the unsung heros of house has been drafted in to keep the new versions feet firmly on the ground. craig loftis aka grand high priest who along with joe promised land smooth on keys! give the track a more understated could upstate from london back to chicago with 3 killa mixes

+ huge gui boratto remix cerebral and modern, a little anti establishment, somewhat guerilla style.octopus is the peculiar and artistic home of quite unusual producers, a common ground for diverse creations of techno, house, deep- whatever works when we a

pawel, also known for his melancholic and deeply emotional songwriter skills as turner on ladomat and mute, follows his path of minimal post-detroit influenced tracks recently heard on his dial release >ceramics<. having released 3 12inches on dial records as pawel so far, >jujuy&salta< marks a step on new ground, by starting his own label. orphanear is meant to be a open playground for both the pawel and turner releases, as well as for old and new friends, not only in the dance-spectrum. >jujuy< starts of with a slowed down, dark and bouncing synth line, and later on sound as if sähkö had moved to la and invited us all. >salta< turns up the velocity slightly and deliberately evolves into one of the sweetest and hypnotic detroit affine tracks in the recent past! played by dj koze & chloe

cool package of mixes for this funky vocal number

rotterdam is known as a nutritious breeding ground for techno in its many shapes and forms. this very alive environment has caused a new imprint to arise: dinner. the label presents a rock solid sound based on futuristic offbeat patterns and industrial vibe. the artist featured on the label are some of the most outstanding dutch new talents, jeroen liebregts, fiend & friend and anton pieete. downwards-like techno trax

big hit! stunning minimal techno from berlins underground producer scene! the subdub label owner and berlin based techno activists heinrichs & hirtenfellner, have already released numerous tracks and remixes on labels like lordag, supdub, tonkonsum, römer and freshly squeezed: karateklub! violet rain on the a-side is a deep groovin’ track with melancholic atmosphere rounded up with an amazing pumping bassline. on the flip drop to the warm ground is a funky and intense track accented with bleepy textures. for peak time play, no question about it! “under the water surface” starts with a smooth beat combined with nice melodic elements. but after the break: a dirty and pushing bassline rolls over the whole track - the monster awakes and send the dancing crowd to the moon and back! amazing 3-track ep - buy or die!

next up on oliver huntemanns label dance electric is ladomat artist and graphic designer ascii.disko aka daniel holc, mostly known for combining the dark & melancholic shades of wave & alternative rock to floor rocking electro trenched dance beats. >closer< is no exception from this rule, a super simple and keen bass upon some fierce drum programming build the perfect ground for his seductive vocals. incl club mix and arnaud rebotini (blackstrobe) remix

jake childs requires very little introduction to the more discerning house ear. with releases on leading labels including drop music, freerange and doubledown, not to mention his own uni.form imprints, he has taken the house world by storm over the past few years. here he serves up some retro chicago sounding yet stripped back jackers. seems really simple at first, a real trademark of jake s sound, but its bumpin bassline, bleeps and squelches grow around you becoming more intense with every listen. the flip delivers >good times< which incorporates his brand of choppy jackin beats, punchy snares, gritty synths and rolling bass that rips apart any dancefloor. the track flips mid-way and bubbles under as the bass lines compete for attention before recombining for another roof raising moment. the >beat machine< is an eerie voyage into the middle ground between house and pop. once again moody synths and a growling sub bass lead the way, with the haunting vocals of lil prince (who has previously featured on jake s icon and drop music eps) gliding over the mix! hot floor burning shit

this dry, cold-processed stomper from jack rock shoots like a rocket out of nowhere. with a bass drum that reminds of stakes installed in the swampland and a mysterious melody, he once again presents himself as the connoisseur of delicate club dramaturgy and jack really knows how to conquer the hearts of both, the dj and the crowd.his stumbling funk finds its equivalence in dandy jack s staccato rush whose congenial remix shows a higher concentration, but is still full of catchiness and deepness driven by a real conviction. this must-have ep offers a really wonderful ground contact and represents the continuation of a unique label policy: young, but characterised by deep wisdom, knowledge that can only be found in the dark labyrinths of the club where we love to get lost over and over again...played by john acquaviva, dinky, toni rios

for the 3rd release on his own herzblut label stephan teamed up with mr. systematic marc romboy and what they deliver is simply outstanding! puck is a masterpiece based on a simple and incredibly modulated bass tone on top of basic drumming. the dark atmosphere and the consequence in this track reminds of plastic mans best productions, this will make you shiver! io is another of those epic classics. techno blues. a beautiful bass synth melody is the core of a journey thru old tekkno ground and new production styles.. supported by garnier, tiga, roman fluegel and charted by hell

a ground breaking 3 tracks ep that we re not less then proud to present you. kemistrycian is a wonder tune,based on twistery and magically well balanced clever programming that as an obvious goal, to make you move. back 2 basics has a shaking and grooving start, percussive elements from beyond our universe, panned along sounds for your modern listening experience. patch for dogs is a dubbed out track that just never stops. and it sure grooves, like the whole ep.

a strong pop track, very pet shop boys sounding music in the subway fast paced disco techno pop would describe it quite well. the aerial mix is an extended version only relying on a few elements of the original with filtered vocals and powerful thematic pad the ground mix is a solid techno version more in the lines of the labels first release with well produced breaks and sounds its an impasse is a more italian disco sounding track with its flying analog synths lines while its remix by dynarec has a lot more rough and minimal electro approach

two 12 records with deep and dirty sometimes dark house tracks by elio riso and rhod crespo giving a lot of atmosphere to the late night clubbers
