for the 25th release on recognition, one of the premiere polish export goods, label boss jacek sienkiewicz teams with a longtime friend, and extraordinary musician, chilean maestro pier bucci. both have been playing together for some time now, and this debut studio recording hopefully will not be the last. despite obvious cultural differences, both artists share some curious sensibility and/or sort of modern romanticism - underpinned either with latin optimism (bucci) or a kind of slavic melancholy (sienkiewicz). add to this the dopest tech-house beats available today, and dancefloor destruction is guaranteed.the title track is a cross-genre time bomb, obviouslydesigned to mess with the heads while the bodies can t stop moving. kicking off with driving, solid beat of almost live feel, soon it develops into a symphony of carefully crafted and meticulously assembled sounds. we are treated by some strange woodwinds, jokingly reminding of jacek s previous hit outing, beacon , and... is this the pope we hear talking for a moment...? …

anorak 002 from the mysterious fat camp collective heads to the deep south for feeling and rock your georgie, both of which have a gator swamp feel to them with a slight twist of jambalaya, crawfish pie and fillet gumbo. yum! they are aided in their culinary mission by penthouse disco, whose nipples are rather daringly on display in a wanton admission of fallen virtue.

limited nice price action !
- deus ex machina is a snarling, tension-filled track. pacey beats, drawn out builds and rolling snares all combine to provide the perfect footing for the rolling bassline to do its damage. this is a track to set alight the harder, darker sets. que loucura de som (that crazy sound) has a rolling, heads-down vibe with plenty of techno punch. classic sounding warm stabs provide the main hook to carry things along to a trademark mojo twisted breakdown with distorted sirens spinning things out

claque musique present their fifth release, which is a technoid gem from hugo (already responsible for the brilliant third 12 inch on the label, entitled born to bop) called strobo revenge. another zany electronic bullet that is destined to cause mayhem on dancefloors worldwide! on the a side, jumping beats, vocal mirages and compressed synths create the groove on the original mix of the title track. a fizzing bassline and echoing whistles enter later on and they give the track a slice of claque musique zaniness. a2, prismatic visual, is a powerful floor filler, which is slightly less crazy then its musical partner. hugo uses dependable percussion, watery synth action and inviting vocals to create this musical treat. on the flip side, carola pisaturo brings us a moody version of strobo revenge that squeezes something else out of those whistles. she employs heads down percussion, vocal shards and smooth synths on her version. portable/bodycode heightens the intensity with a jackin rerub that sends the track in another direction completely. marching beats, acidic synths and hollow bass drops work wonders on abrahams revision

with the majority of deep electronic music being provided via europes minimal hive - berlin, its an enlightening prospect that one of belgiums key players in the scene is behind the musical direction of new imprint miconn records. having produced a string of successful remixes of artists including chab and bedrocks polefolder, whilst appearing regularly across his native club scene, it was only a matter of time before miquell santos turned his attention to a dedicated output for his music. whilst an exciting new remix of rennie fosters slamming >devils water< is being released in 2009 on rebirth, the debut release under his hermanez moniker is scheduled for an appropriate new year release on 12inch . turning his production to a more early morning vibe, >gold coast< is a carefully selected debut of crisp deep house beats with just enough wonky additions for even the most demanding of minimal heads

the pump ep is a typically genre-bending mixture of pumping, groovy house tracks, exploring the many sides of this highly regardedproducers fruitful repertoire. lead track the pump is a vivacious number that takes a clean, modern house aesthetic as a base and later infuses it with a dirtier, earlier morning vibe, with phoniques playful use of the resplendent chord stabs. its a slow burner indeed, and yet another example of his effortless arrangement talents. fancying a spot of fresh air and a trip into the audio countryside, bike ride is an even more playful journey into the kooky electronic world of phoniques studio outings. solid drums and warm sub bass provide the energy for all manner of pops and tweaks to unfold. its another deeper track but be warned it still has the power to lift a crowd up onto its tip-toes. going down more of a techno route, tooltime completes the package and breaks out the big guns for some serious heads down dancefloor ignition. urgent and tight late night action, not for the faint of heart, the tracks title is too modest - it should really read ‚ peak time
