beatdisaster records continues its successful way of presenting technoid clubhammers, with a release of the two most familiar artists of the label, which have made awesome tunes right from the start: eric sneo (ciao bella) and tube-tech (the end). eric sneos >tanz der familie< original version was already a big clubhit in 2003, based on the successful party series at the legandary german techno club palazzo. for the restart of this series, eric made a fantastic remix featuring accordion sequenzes on a groovy beat, which he filled up with live played solos at the >tanz der familie< party in 2009 with amazing response from the crowd.the first techno band tube-tech presents their interpretation of the cult hit >painted black<. with original sung vocals of their front man alex denton and also live played guitar, this version (remixed by eric sneo) has an enormous power and forward energy, flavoured with some great percussions and also has already successfully presented on numerous live gigs of the band.two amazing tracks, that will definately bring the beatdisaster sound back to the clubs!

lithuanian producer paulius lincius (aka moon disco) presents his first vinyl release on the respected control tower label, run by the dexorcist & radioactive man, and shows a subtlety and deftness of touch that many more experienced producers would envy. treading the path of classic electro can be a dangerous game if the sounds arent just so, but fortunately paulius has been doing his homework and keeps it simple and clean. radioactive man offers up a remix that roughens things up a little bit and throws some datasette-esque sounds into the equation, but still keeps pretty close to the traditional electro blueprint. overall a strong release for those that prefer their beats and bass with a slightly nostalgic edge...

alan abrahams, the man behind portable, emerged out of the ruins of a post apartheid south africa. growing up in an impoverished cape town township, tagged >beverly hills< by the locals, abrahams was always immersed in his sisters ritual of getting ready for a night out to a soundtrack of 80s soul, hi life and hip hop. inspired by the first batch of chicago house records, the foundations were laid for his future in music. experimenting with ways of combining traditional african rhythms with the 4/4 sound of house,abrahams completed various projects in south africa. most of which gave a commentary to the political turmoil of the country at the time. abrahams inevitably became frustrated by the geographic isolation of the country and relocated to london in 1997. in the uk abrahams went on to complete various releases for internationally recognised labels such as context and background records before starting up his own label, süd electronic in 2002
