daniel savio is one of the originators of the skweee genre, and actually the one who first coined the term skweee to describe the process of squeezing each and every sound used in his tunes from one single synth. it goes whithout saying that myor is very proud to present this 7 inch by the master of his trade. assecs denied is about as close as youll get to a banger within this freakazoid genre: compelling drum works, catchy synth bleeps and some obscured vocal snippets. on make it personal señor savio treads a slower and more modest pace. still skweee though, just a bit more relaxed and even slightly melancholi

12 Inch
24.05.12
martin brodins second single from the forthcoming album which is due for june 2012. it follows the successful badabing which featured diskjokke as remixer. strings attack is all about the strings for disco. ok,now you may think he gone all cheesy here, but that’s totally wrong.it still have the funkyness and groove it needs to be a full-fledged disco anthem in our ears. and we invited two of the most prolific producers out there to make this a rock solid release. switzerlands finest, headman (robi insinna), who we all know from his own relish label and releases on gomma. he turn the original to an uber-cool bass-laden track and makes it a bit more in-your-face to speak, while the original is a bit more freestyle. second out is spanish born ilya santana with his funky mellow take. its a perfect remix for those beach parties we all love.

STALKER EP
12 Inch
24.05.12
following his release on peter van hoesens time to express late last year, sp-x drops his third ep for komisch. fans of >signal path experiments< and >field lines never end< will not be disappointed as the brussels - based producer serves up three more slices of uncompromising warehouse techno. lead track <the escape< has all the sp-x hallmarks - rock hard beats, thundering claps and a swinging groove that underpins eerie riffs and clanking metallic drums >stalker< reveals a more musical slant to sp-xs sound. it starts off with unsettling riffs, but soon the rolling drum-led arrangement changes tact and provides the backdrop for a growling chord climax. there is a similar concession on >attack pattern< bruising doubled-up drums and that unmistakably snappy sp-x percussion combine with subtle snare rolls to create a peak time arrangement. but once again an insistent chord sequence gives it the edge over functional techno. make sure to hunt this killer release down

THINKING TOO MUCH / WHERE THE HELIOS
12 Inch
24.05.12
thinking too much/where the helios is juk juks second release on nommos. thinking too much is the most direct juk juk release so far. its peak time fare, aimed squarely at the dancefloor. the dreamy intro will fool the unsuspecting, sucking them in and propelling them on a tripped out ride on a techno ghost train, buffered by a cushion of warm throbbing bass. where the helios is the real dream side. a floating, hallucinogenic, spaced out drift, driven by a crisp, pared back rhythm and a gorgeous, woozy vocal- led melody. juk juks first release for nommos was unwrap/fall and before that his debut, winter turn spring/frozen, was put out by kieran (four tet) hebden on his highly regarded text label. all juk juks output to date has been critically acclaimed, coverage including fact magazine, pitchfork, mix mag, abeano, the fader amongst others. his releases have also received significant club and radio plays including mainstream radio 1 support from admirers giles peterson and rob da bank, who has promised support for this release. four tet said the room went off when playing thinking too much at a recent event.
THE PUFFING TORTOISE
12 Inch
23.05.12
fresh out of melbournes reputed house scene, the tortoise is one of the hottest talents to emerge from the current wave of house breaking down under. a side the puffing tortoise captures the 21-year-olds precocious talent and aims it squarely at the peak time. working his trademark airy vocals around a familiar disco refrain and bubbling bass, he works the track into a sweaty climax and skilfully keeps it there throughout the midsection. turning in a late night chugger on their remix, berlin based canadians the mole and hreno ride an insistent pulse and insect like percussion. twisting the samples, they guide the track into a dark jungle of chattering sounds to temper the tortoise youthful exuberance. the analogue melancholy of keep on keepin on is all in the sweeping synths and twinkling effects. recoiling the tension, the chicago influenced track seeps through the speakers and will sound as good at home as it will during specially chosen dancefloor moments. rondenion approaches the title track with fearless disregard for the original, combining the swelling tortoise sound with something entirely his own. his addition of a funk fuelled midsection, really breaks the track down and adds another slice of character to an ep already brimming with it.

BECAUSE OF ME
12 Inch
23.05.12
ander-traxx is a fresh label operating out of glasgow with the intent of releasing righteous underground house, and although mainly a platform for the labels founder alex-ander to showcase his own productions, ander-traxxs remit also includes the presentation of unknown talent for future releases. for this first release, alex steps up to the plate to deliver because of me, followed by 3 remixes from artists born and raised in glasgow. the original kicks things off with its intro of glacial pads and jittery hats, before quickly delving into a seriousely deep groove brimming with melodic layers. although because of me gives a strong nod to the recent developements of producers like omar s and kyle hall, it undoubtedly has the hallmarks of an alex-ander production, his unique arrangements coming to the forefront while still complimenting the crisp percussion that drives the track forward. carlos nilmmns (co founder of the formidable solab production unit) mix is a much more off-kilter and submerged affair. nilmmns plays down the epic quality of the original and adds chugging rhythmics and sweetcured piano work for a lesson in divine repetition. mesumas feedback mix goes in for the dancefloor attack, not surprising for a gentleman whos previous work has seen releases on hardgroove and seventh sign. rolling toms and a booming kick meet aquatic vocal samples and spectral harmonicas, and will still please those partial to deeper sounds. last up to give because of me the rework treatment is meschi (lunar disko, lux, snuff traxx), who mixes his chicago influenced analogue stylings perfectly with the source material. stripped down crescendos build up to a euphoric drop, and meschis elated melodies bring another twist to this excercise in deep funk. because of me is one of those rare e.ps that works just as well in a non-club enviroment as it does on the dancefloor. with this warning shot, alex-ander will surely be capturing the ears of many in 2012 and beyond.

after their first hello on the 6 years hive compilation adriatique is back on hive audio with a full ep. the swiss- based duo recently released some remarkable pieces of music in the last months with amzing feedbacks and chart-postitions. the aint nobody ep shows a few typical adriatique sounds but has a darker touch. the original a-side is filled with some old school housebeats paired with heavy synth work, deep vocals & a rolling bassline which makes this track work for every time of the night or morning. atapys remix of aint nobody goes into the same direction but delivers his very own interpretation. he put on the atapy stamp through his characteristic synthmelodies. then we have another original track from adriatique. mind games is a heavy dance floor track with lots of content. pretty much electronic with melodies and spoken vocals which really put mind games on the map. overall all tracks are made for the club and will achieve their goal. dancing not only with the body but also with the soul.

ilario alicante might well be best known for his previous releases on big room labels cocoon and cecille but preconceptions can be misleading. here on sudden drop we plough a deeper furrow, not ones for hands up in the air shenanigans we prefer to get our heads down on the dancefloor for some serious introspection, which is why this 3 tracker from the italian born ilario finds its way onto our label. echotechno is indeed a main room slice of stomping techno but with that oh so important moody vibe that we crave here at sd,rouge dub on the flip delves deeper with an exceedingly trippy soundscape whilst untitled drop rounds things off with a spritely techno groove.

THIS IS NOT THE END REMIXE (MICHAEL MAYER RMX)
12 Inch
21.05.12
from gui borattos latest album iii comes >this is not the end<, an indie minded track that convincingly demonstrates guis impressive skill set when it comes to emotional narratives embedded in a distinctively monumental context. like his timeless >beautiful life< and last years album highlight >destination: education< (already remixed to perfection by terranova and tale of us), >this is not the end< features the beautiful vocals of luciana villanova, who seems to know exactly what makes gui tick - which doesnt come as a surprise, as they are married – and possesses this rarest of all gifts, an unique voice that seems to address each listener personally. in his own 2012 mix featured here, gui doesnt so much concentrate on the originals tearjerking qualities (which were already fully formed), but streamlines the arrangement for ease of use on the floor of your choice, making the track even more refined and addictive. those of you looking for a slighty more adventurous approach will find their satisfaction with michael mayers rework on the flipside, where the source materials hypnotic qualities are brought to the fore, resulting in a masterful slice of catchy prime time psychedelica. with both mixes turning out to be instant classics, we can definitely confirm that this is not the end.
rising parisian producer yakines career pretty much defines the word eclectic — in his teens, he was a bona fide metalhead, playing guitar in a metal band that toured all over europe, before his love of hip hop steered him in the direction of the dancefloor. he really found his home behind the decks, however, and once he discovered the world of electronic music via the patronage of his brother—who introduced him to the sounds of underground deep house and techno — yakine quickly moved into production. he has since released a series of eps on european labels like esperanza and jetaime records. the rise ep is his first release for spectral sound, a four-track slab of understated, atmospheric techno.
HOME BY SIX / LEVANT
12 Inch
21.05.12
kruse & nürnberg feat. karina junker - home by six: the hamburg duo kruse & nürnberg return with another sure-shot in their trademark groovy and reduced house sound. designed for the most discerning dancefloors, the subliminal, sultry vocals of karina junker are twisted around an infectious jam. smooth rhodes flutters indulge the funk within and the result is an unmissable spring-time frolic.
matthias meyer - levant: father of >tout va bien< and >infinity< brings his latest deep-charge to the table with >levant<. playful, filtering drums and percussive fills work a complex groove into the foreground while a gently growing melodic theme builds. its a real summertime beauty that once again firmly plants meyer on the map. ebbing and flowing like the fresh breeze, dont be surprised to hear this one at many an open air this season!
with >dazed<, senking continues his exploration of the abysses of sound to create dark and gloomy atmospheres. the slow beats of the two tracks are accompanied by tender, harmonic melodies, but broken by nervous, unsteady tones which seem to be a warning against hidden dangers. the first track >the dance hall walk< also features a vocal sample by micheal cramm - a text which reflects the nervousness and excitement in anticipation of some thrilling things to come. like >tweek<, senkings last ep, >dazed< is not only concerned with the depths of sound, but also with the depths of the human psyche, where there is no escape other than music itself.

THINGS INSIDE / HEAVY TONE
12 Inch
18.05.12
nice price deal !!! vladivostok lad eastcolors is probably most well-known within the dnb community for his mixes and for his collaborations with enei and nuage. as far as modern drum and bass is concerned eastcolors is at the forefront of that techy, fresh sound emanating from eastern europe and russia. with this in mind then, it is clear that while his tunes fuse well with his fellow russian drum and bass cohorts, eastcolors is making a departure from collabs. what better way to celebrate demands tenth release then, with eastcolors settings about placing his name upfront and alone with his first ever solo 12 inch. on the flip >heavy tone< rumbles forth with a typically eastcolors take on what a roller should be. lenzman-esque synths and strange, celestial vocals are quickly worked over by an electrical storm of droning bass and pads. as the synths return to break up the clouds here and there, >heavy tone< loses the idea of becoming another lost bass-heavy roller and settles into being a multi-layered piece of quality drum and bass.
