this brand new and long awaited follow up 12-inch single release by off the record is finally here! its been quite a while since their first release >robot gang ep< (sen-003) came out and took the dancefloors by storm. all the wait has been well worth though, as this talented duo is back on track with their trademark rough & raw drum sounds, killer breaks and bridges. such elements can be found directly from the starting track >tel aviv – japan<, which combines nicely minimalist techno / house sound architexture with simple, yet effective groove, and it grows humble and slowly to reach up its peak moment what goes like: splash! in ya face! there you have it! guaranteed to lighten up any dancefloors, it s dangerously explosive and has amazing flavour on the rocks! having said that, on demand producer and remixer ran shani (crosstown rebels, breastfed, cr2 records) was kind enough to contribute his absolutely fabulous and fantastic remix work of >in your mind< track. he pushed the track to the next level and came up with a truly club oriented pulsating dance track with extra crispy and tasty beats. rotating 360 degrees panorama effect on female vocals coming in as the track rolls further right after the break is surely enough to explode some minds on the dancefloors. watch this man out! perfect end to an extended play here is the only track offering a mini lovestory: >shes lost her mind> is a true and cold hearted, crucial story about a tech savvy clubgirl falling in love in a binary world full of zeros and ones, finding computers and turin machines sexually more attractive companions to better have fun with rather than getting accustomed to that old fashioned missionary position carried out by her human boyfriend. floating, dubby and rather melancholic, but definitely not a sad song! but one thing is for sure regarding that twisted story after all: someone has truly lost her mind somewhere along the way …

entertainment is a duo. im a cliché is proud to release their very first e.p on september 29th. juan de guillebon is the bass player. he studied a lot jaco pastorius, but decided not to spend the rest of his life playing in jazz rock combos. you can easily guess his attraction to no wave bands (suicide or james chance), krautrock (his faves are cluster), or ebm and early electro (daf). alongside, hes part of the ectoplasmic band, performing as backing band for tigersushis boss joakim. antoine montgaudon plays the guitar, and we bet he would have fit perfectly in any brian enos late 70s recording. he builds endless psychedelic atmospheres with feedbacks, loops and fxs. all this only with his guitar. hes also part of my sister klaus, a project released on tigersushi (again).

shifting gears is a stand out track from headthrash. riddled with dj trickery the stanton warriors remix is already creating fever pitch amongst the djs lucky enough to have a copy. a fusion of funk riffs, urgent disco stabs and hip hop vocals driven by one of the warriors trademark basslines. heavy and epic, positive and optimistic. on the flipside rocket soul has the classic signature plump sound from start to finish. reminiscent of their hugely successful system addict and looking like it will rival in popularity. we have upfront copies in store now.

drumcode continues its strive for excellence with this new 2 tracker from one of the hottest techno talents around right now - tony rohr. his recent huge releases for the likes of clink and plus 8 have caused quite a stir as well as his countless quality productions before that. the two tracks themselves are perfectly geared for drumcode with their twisted techno sensibility yet dancefloor appeal. expect massive support from the techno masses

its house but not as we know it! young david, aka dave young, chose his artist name as a reminder of what it said on his office door before he took some time out in the summer of 2006. swapping the office for what an estate agent might describe as a cosy basement studio in stockholm, he now sits around making beats all day the fuji ep is musical adventure. bridging the gap between soulful and minimal and blending crunchy mid-tempo party beats with intoxicating two-tone, jazz and dub flavours. equally at home on the dance floor, ipod or lounge stereo, the tracks have a sense of space and depth and, above all, a real musicality which comes not (only) from the pushing of a few buttons, but from a lifelong quest

i get deep, i get deep, i get deeper. that should actually read he gets deep. dj roland clark, that is one of the rulers of the sermonizing vocal, roland steps up to the pulpit once again with his latest release, black in my soul, on king street. this man not only has black in his soul but also an excellent sense of humor, including the ability to work it into his productions, and thats something we all have time to appreciate. swedish producer extraordinaire tiger stripes pumps us full of his dark fuel creating an intricate, nicely rhythmic and dancefloor dramatic track. his dub vox retains its deep and dark stature but twist synths rolands voice into a fiendish narrator. west coast producer david hernandez funkifies this tune on his deep west mix but keeps the deepness well intact. say it loud and dance proud!

remixes by kollektiv turmstrasse, noze & apparat !! raz ohara and the odd orchestra received critical acclaim for their self titled album released earlier this year. they may have not been the inventors of their unique style, but the danish patrick rasmussen and his german cohort oliver doerell have certainly helped to redefined the idea of what an electronic musical album can, could and should be. just as artists such as bjork, portishead and booka shade have done so before them. following up their first album single, kisses, this is offering with four other tracks from the album that get the remix treatment courtesy of apparat, kollektiv turmstrasse, nôze and raz himself. it was only a matter of time before one of razs tracks got the 4x4 treatment. kollektiv turmstrasse have showed respect and kept the spirit of the original alive. keeping the original guitar and vocal arrangement intact while simply adding a little bump and shake to the mix. raz shows us that things can be better the second time around, as he continues to proclaim his, love for mrs. rhodes. although he does not trade in his melodies for a kick and snare, they are certainly more prevalent in this dramatized mix complete with arpeggiated synths and additional sound effects. hopefully, this time he will win her heart

the munich resident florian senfter aka zombie nation or john starlight is well-known as the creator of tracks like kernkraft 400, souls at zero, space marines and last not least blood angels, which can also be found on the sound of the third season, and is thus a reliable choice for sweaty, energetic eruptions up to the fringe of demolition. this doesnt change significantly on road rage, which was originally released by ukw in a limited number of copies and is now the first sign of life from senfters studio, after three years of abstinence. with timehonoured plus 8 references and acid elements, the original recollects an almost gone quality of techno: to blow away your skullcap with the unashamed joy of telling stories, many breaks, some funky dirtyness and experimental noise playfulness. exclusively made for cocoon was the remix by parisian turbo producer popof who gives the track an even more intense gross-grained feeling. one does not have to be a prophet at all to tell that both versions are facing a great future in club autumn 2008 and beyond
