all the way from spain rises another label that can be best described as no nonsense. spootnik kicks in hard with a first release featuring 4 of the scenes best artists. hellfish, akira, noisekick and tripped combine 4 tracks of industrial hardcore, frenchcore, uk-hardcore and breakcore together perfectly as one. the e.p. features stomp that wicked bitch right up, france make sum xxl, couldnt find a title and ik vermaak me optimaal. very versatile e.p. also a highly limited press so order now to avoid customer disappointment. this label is 100 procent audio sickness approved!

zweite remix-ep des erfolgreichen albums >salon des amateurs< von hauschka. featuring tanzbein-remix von steve bicknell aus der londoner szene sowie ein remix des berliners rené löwe aus der hardwax shop/szene der 90er jahre, der hier unter seinem künstlernamen vainqueur das stück >ping< neu produziert hat.

hauschkas first releases of 2012 come in the form of two stunning remix 12 inches that are pitched at the dancefloor and kick off a wider project of reinterpretations of his last full-length. here, ep1 sees two serious heavyweights of minimal techno delivering very different, yet complentary versions. this 12 inch is the first of two vinyl-only eps, running in advance of a full album of electronically-angled remixes of >salon des amateurs<.

again harry klein records comes with an excellent splitt ep. this time by dj w!ld and seph

after his sublime remix for hitsafes >let the acid out< on shaddocks first release, tin man makes a deadly return to shaddock records, delivering his most dancefloor oriented record to date. opening track >t_dd_t_rr_y< sees kicking beats with a genealogy harking back to finest chicago house, yet done with contagious feather-light energy of uk funky and a naughty bassline gliding perfectly between cheeky rave chords and their moody older brother. >s_mple_house< continues with this blindingly effective simplicity, dreamily muted chord stabs, rolling congas in ecstatic space over a warm round bass. on the flip on >aut_repeat<, crystalline synth shards coalesce in complex forms and continue in icey determination as the beat sneaks up underneath, propelling into an absolutely blistering workout. >djsn_k< rounds up on a perky high, an ebullient synthline with crunch and a punchy beat so frontal it might make you blush. rave bones akimbo – tin man steals the pure dance!

deichkinds neuestes album >befehl von ganz unten< als doppel-vinyl im gatefold-cover, inklusive code zum mp3-download und mini-booklet.

deep house produced by roman paz & maurice fulton.

mika vainio, currently based in berlin, was one half of the minimal electronic duo pan sonic from finland, (the other half was ilpo väisänen). before starting pan sonic in beginning of the 90 s mika vainio has played electronics and drums as part of the early finnish industrial and noise scene. his solo works, under his own name and under aliases like Ø, are known for their analogue warmth and electronic harshness. be it abstract drone works or minimal avant techno, vainio is always creating unique, physical sounds.

is it balearic continue a very fine run of form, with another essential 12 from newcomer aihki, featuring a great rework from canadas hottest disco export eddie c! aihki is a helsinki based duo consisting of magnus blomkvist & tuomas soppela. tuomas and magnus met one dark day at the local zoo engaging in some reindeer spotting. both magnus and tuomas had an enormous love for reindeers and folk music so they decided to form aihki. after extensive crate digging and an endless amount of guitar lessons their first ep was ready. inspired by the bright summer nights and the equally dark winters in the nordic region the sound differs a bit from the traditional balearica. besides aihki, tuomas has the estupido machine and magnus run the nerd network club nights in helsinki. another fine package from iib!

ultraschall is an homage to the first big techno club in munich. the owners of harry klein were part of the old ultraschall, which has a unique legendary status nowa¬days. the older generation in particular often long for the good old days. yes those times shouldnt be forgotten, especially not in terms of sound, but its also important to move on and attempt new things. like supporting vinyl, going to a who¬lefood shop or ending war. ok that might sound like a bro¬ken record, but how about spending less time on facebook and actually with your friends, cooking for your parents or organizing a break dance battle in your backyard? daniel takes us on a journey through the past and back to the future again. a charming mixture of laid-back grooves combined with some rough n ready rave moments make this a rapturous trip, no matter what time it is. track names are a really interesting element of music. some artists dont care about them at all and call their tracks a1 or something non-descript. yet many titles can be really funny, others made up words, and some corre¬spond to current events or times. some just really fit the sound. if you lose something, in general its a pretty nasty and unsettling feeling. but you have to deal with bad luck when it strikes. losing something can teach you an im¬portant lesson, or simply show you what it means to be unfortunate and down. not knowing the lows as well as the highs wont allow you to evaluate life very well. most important is to really feel and be yourself, despite the ups and downs.

coeter one shows two tracks in perfect style of the label. nutempo vinyl records means high-quality of minimal techno. sounds clean, modern and dark. repetitiveness that joins cadenced rhythms, perfect for the dancefloor. never boring and always something unexpected. the remix of >dreesch< signed by veteran mike wall (der hut, aspekt, eins plus, etc.) is decidedly more techno, sounds coming from deep, riffs that seem to remember an old school .. but fresh and strong. the version of >lankow< signed dubit (eminor) is essential and deliberately directed to the dancefloor in the darkest moments.

round three on blank with phat groovin und pumpin tech house madness

the musician airat naryshkin (the very airat) is quite an unusual figure on moscow electronic scene. popular club-culture & music magazine ptiuch called airat >one of the godfathers of the russian electronic music<. he took part in the international album volume transmission (ambient), label worm interface (england),1999. airat with alex paterson (the orb) made an electronic performance in moscow (ketama cafe) last autumn.

murmurs main label returns after more than a years absence with an artist who has undergone something of a transformation of late with a future release set for the revitalised and highly revered >classic< label, marc ashken eschews the more stripped down, minimal beats of past releases to bring together a more phatter, housier sound in collaboration with fabio teti on >don do dat< and floyd lavine on flip side track >do dat<. >don do dat< is s chunky house main room house groover and will no doubt be a key feature in many a djs box over the coming months. flip for the >anonym< remix of >do dat< for a techier workout whilst the original version rounds off the package with an altogether more uplifting jaunt

heavyweight 180g vinyl album, including code for free digital download of this release.

it seems like hawkinson has drawn his inspiration from the lush crackling whispering of the woods. akiko seems to see it the same way and with her remix makes a compelling overall package of the second 12 inch by phunkit. >unterholz< is a crisp driving, deep techno roller with playful percussion elements, subtle functionally-held choral dubs and a bass line drily humming to itself. >stillleben< crackles bone-dry and elegantly at the same time, the light melodic phrases form a great contrast to the massive wall of bass. akiko is tinkering a little organic dust monster out of >stillleben<. definitely superb how she is breathing her principle of life into the whole theme, so that you almost wish the track would never end.

what happens if a balkan brass orchestra from makedonia meets 2 producers from croatia? they create a new summerhit for the open air season and a bomb for clubs! on b-side kocani orkestar, fabian jakopetz & damir pushkar show how this summer sounds. ? medusa? on a-side is the track for clubs produced by fabian jakopitz & dub way. incl. a remix by subfractal.

ganz sicher in zukunftsweisender absicht legt der argentinier franco cinelli mit mwaves einen unsagbar lockeren groove vor, der sexy uber die hihat schleift, wahrend der synth in sonniger selbstvergessenheit auf die open air saison zu perlt und diehormone aktiviert. die flipside kommt mit seuil, einem langjahrigen freund und begleiter der harry kleingemeinde, der erst jungst wieder bei den sagenumwobenen recken der circus company demonstrierte, wie das mit house und jazz nochmal zu verstehen war. auch auf freakin 4 definiert seuil coolness als mit dem fus wippende eleganz und begibt sich damit in eine tradition, die auf jean paul&#8208,,,,,belmondo zuruckgehen durfte, zu einer zeit, als lassigkeit noch unlosbar mit einer kippe im mundwinkel zusammengedacht wurde.

drehkontrolle, also known as sven kegel also releases on plattenbau-musics album pbm010, diametral, florin records, momentum, playback music and many more... listen to his powerful music with some oriental influences

microtonal welcomes drehkontrolle. this guy is a real working machine and already made it on labels like terminal m, baroque records, plattenbau music and many more. this release is coming up with two tech house originals and remixes from alec troniq (ipoly music, broque) and blaues licht (happy to present their vinyl debut) for the harder & freaky players out there.

perfectly suited for huge dance floors and long summer after hours hon-ken sparks with spiralling, hypnotic, multi-layered synths moving between trance and space disco.
inspired by japanese wisdom and engineered with teutonic precision, hon-ken will release your mind and put every dance floor into frenzy.
on the flip lopazz and zarook add a more dub-infused note to their remix treatment. tokyo based producer liquid pegasus delivers a strong recording debut slowing things down to 100bpm resulting in a wonderfully deep disco cut.

over the roofs, where the whole city raises at the horizon we invite hubble to share the view.
the fourth release with >floating souls< stamps gently, with deep marking sounds, as the evolving details buzz close to your ears. on the flip the tripping session continues with >sand< – pulsating energies span the sky with winding melodies rustling below.
a picturesque voyage in enriching cultural exchange.

2 nice technoid minimal tracks .. olympia kommt mit african vocals daher, auf der grüne heide gehts floatiger zugange

fresh from their debut release – the unadulterated vintage house celebration acid dreams ep by hitsafe – intriguing young imprint shaddock now prepares to take a sharp left-hand with the pensive tones of spanish talent pilas, backed up with a stunning remix by kassem mosse.

frances own da fresh mixing some dope house and techno beats

here it is! shaddocks 1st release >acid dreams e.p.< by the enigmatic duo hitsafe, comprised of two individually accomplished producers from germany and usa.

nice price deal !!!

die nummer 3 auf harry klein records zeigt sich sportlicher denn je. nach dem knackigen labeldebüt legen nun erneut die fabelhaften zenker boys eine split ep aufs parkett, die dem kollektiven bewegungsdrang einer sportbegeisterten raver-jugend voll und ganz entgegen kommen sollte. the number 3 on harry klein records appears sportier than ever. after their tricky debut once again the fabulous zenker boys hit the floor with a split ep that should satisfy the raving youth s collective urges for body exercises to its fullest.

to the next, next next next. who?s got next? you got next. we got next. elevating higher! originating from the streets of brooklyn to outer space. blackfoot u-ahk takes us on a poetic rollercoaster ride. free styling his way to an outer body experience. only meeting a few times prior. jon cutler carries a pocket drive of tracks. runs into blackfoot at a mutual friends house. loads the cut and sets the mike up. records the vocals and heads home to his own studio to finish the original version. taken from the forth-coming album. a step back. on the remix duties, up and coming dj / producer victor casimir (boom tune) keeps it true nyc style. while marlon d (underground collective) bangs those drums!!! doc link (liberate) from chicago rounds of the package with some raw drums and neo-soul.

following the intricate alleys down in the shattered underworld, molar module and emad parandian rejoin under harsh neon light to share haknams third vinyl.
>kifarasi< on the a-side by molar module offers absorbing percussion underlined with ambient echospaces, industrial patterns and a propulsive bass.
the b-side >arezou< by emad parandian combines dulled nautical atmospheres, crackly analogue percussions in deep symbiosis with energetic solid drums that densify space. mysterious vocals seem like a relict of ancient times.
truly a hearty third release that etches elaborate details into the outline of haknam.

with support by john selway, stephan bodzin, perc, technasia, xhin, tony rohr, dean facer and many more. the catalogue number 013 on the berlin label phunkit records is at the same time the starting shot for the first vinyl release. and exactly this one shows down-to-earth techno from the capital, elaborated and cunning, by the artist duo takt tick. the actual overhead conveyors and host djs from the tresor club present trend-setting productions. the name >u1< is, brought to the point, a little journey through the time of berlins underground. the a1 side sends the listener on a trip which is coined by dynamical passages of highs and crispy bass parts. uncompromisingly does the rhythm chase around the focused, flogging consonance and the slowly modulated intervals with short breaks. on the b side: >whisper<, a subtle peak-time monster which does not know any kind of holdup, full of energy and only waiting for the chance to make the strobes lose their wind. >black worms is a b2-bomber for sure. with its dusky sounds, it is solidly rolling without downward movement. shady, resonant, consequent and remorseless.

after the critical success of 2008s >rain< (dcp008), berlins aschka is back with a new ep entitled >cinnabar<, featuring 2 ethereal instrumental deephouse cuts. this time aschka enlisted friend & fellow berliner dirk leyers (closer musik, kompakt), who delivers a mesmerizing, broodingly infectious techno remix. on the bside, ruoho ruotsi serves up a deep melodic yet wistful take on >cinnabar<.

new chk chk chk longplayer ... quality stff as usual

nach dem massiven erfolg, den die gebrueder zenker mit ihrer definition von munich techno einfuhren, kommt nun endlich moechte man meinen die nummer 2 auf harry klein records. diesmal teilen sich die harry klein residents benna und kid.chic die split-ep.benna schneider, resident der ersten stunde, debuetiert hier auf ganzer linie mit seiner ersten produktion und erweitert die klanglichen parameter des harry klein sounds um eine neue richtung weird house. bereits in seinen sets zeigte sich stets eine gewisse affinitaet zu psychedelischer wirrnis, doch angesichts dieser zwei stuecke wuenscht man sich in der tat, dass bennas psychiater diese scheibe niemals zu ohren bekommt. darueber hinaus gibt auch der (releasetechnisch) ebenso jungfrõuliche kid.chic seine premiere mit einem elegant reduzierten housetrack, durchsetzt mit subtiler disco-aesthetik, die den moment der ersten sonnenstrahlen noch einmal perfekt ausformuliert. damit wõre auch alles gesagt, eine split-ep zwischen wahnsinn und liebe.

erster teaser des ende august erscheinenden neuen !!! (chk chk chk) albums ist diese club 12 inch mit dem opener >am/fm< (punk-funk meets madchester) sowie dem euphorisierenden acid-house-gewitter von >the hammer<! auf 200 stück in de/at/ch limitierte auflage in klarem vinyl!

includes an amazing remix by nitrogenetics! only 300 copies pressed, so dont miss this one!

tracks with the license to drive you mad! nothing less what you can expect from this ep from germanys upcoming sven kegel aka drehkontrolle. sharp production with sound(e)scapes that are weird but straight at the same time. real hidden secret weapon for your case, thx god you have it on vinyl to listen to this nice bass!

in the dark shadows of the rooftops of haknam we meet esc.eip, who enriches haknams second release with his affinity for deconstruction. his elements appear, melt and fade away to materialise in a deep, winding, dusky jam. the ever transforming structures contrast paranoid harmonies with the forceful percussive rolls, as in >unsound behaviour<. on the b side is >miraa<, the aftertaste of a blissed out acid trip, soft shades build a warm space in which a lost saxophone appears and disappears.

we release the vinyl-version from same named album, which was released on treibstoff in january this year. the vinyl focuses most danceable tracks and comes along in a fancy inside-out printed cover, shrinkwrapped.
supported by luciano, chloe, dj seb / minilogue, richie hawtin, slam and many more ...
