there is quite a charming story of mutual love between borrowed identity and tenderpark behind this record. the two have been exchanging letters of enthusiasm for each other for quite some time. and so the idea of this joint record has grown very naturally.

limited edition, 1 sided release with the lost d side of deepchords now classic * electro magnetic dowsing* originaly appeared as 3 different 12 inch singles (side a, b, c) on mike huckaby s revered s y n t h imprint out of detroit. played by ricardo villalobos, richie hawtin, omar s to laurent garnier. an absolute must for the heads!
strictly limited pressing

soma mainstay deepchord returns with part 2 of the luxury series. this double a release feature deepchords signature atmosphere rich tones and lush environments and also mark a slight upturn in terms of pressing on a more techno vibe.

on this first release of his newly created imprint, southsoniks presents a very special track just another chord song, extracted from his live-act and reworked with care in the studio

(reggy van oers remix) this powerful track left both joris voorn and edwin oosterwal awe inspired and they are proud to finally re-release it on their label rejected

the first of a string of new releases from robert solheim in 2014. a dubbed out progressive house track aimed for the late night club floor, a lovely deep-house remix from carlo (neovinyl / good ratio) and a funky stripped down tech-house remix from norways end & below (small records / aquavit records).

hand stamped white label. you might remember shan from his one-sided sven-väth-approved hit how you want it for frankfurts newly founded label the healing company. here he is with his monolithic chord memories. an evocation of what dubbed out house and techno tracks usually do, but to a rather unusual and - if we dare say - devastating effect. the flip holds three short and direct cuts with leanings to the a-side and one acid track. necessary ruffness.

eintakt 29 >rauhv01< vinyl, including 2 exclusive remixes of nvelopes successful first full length >chords & scapes<, also part of the 3 track ep is the original song >tribute< by nvelope. nvelope presents his tribute version on a1, a track as simple as classic as good as you know what im talking about.longtime label fellow gunnar hemmerling (also man behind dock records) kicks off on the a2 with a quite reduced stomper (and as >stomping ground< is the tracks name he does good so). proper ancient techno vibes, enslaving the circuitry and drumming on the real heavy barrels. rob strobe and kai randy michel aka say what introduce themselves on eintakt on full b-side with a soupy submarine machine and you might dont know what to say (but the project name says say what) and i say get lost there then (and you probably will). the rauhv series are an upcoming collection of unreleased remixes of different rauhphaser releases

etcht records comes with its second release, this time from new artist cam chorder. this release moves in a different direction from the labels debut showcasing a new slungout analogue electro sound. cam chorders *the worst* was recorded during a live jam taken from rosies box studio in london. featuring breathy vocals and noisy synths, this gives an uneasy yet poppy tone to this record. the original is backed by a futuristic 4x4 reworking by velvit aka dbridge.

first reference of the label white rose (part of the dead rose records project) that aims at the hypnotic detroit sound of the mid 90s and also the dub flavours of the mid 90s berlin sound. the ep is signed by duster traum on his first release and miki craven.

prior to the release of deepchords 3rd full length on soma, we are pleased to deliver yet another exclusive, limited edition picture disc in the form of 3 track ambient piece, de wallen. this specially crafted ep is strictly limited to one vinyl only run and features photography by rod modell himself.

2016 repress ... thomas atzmann from hamburg debuts for underyourskin. deep tech house meets a electronica remix by rampue (audiolith, dantze).

kid cultures experience in the electronic music has been firmly rooted from amsterdams thriving scene, the city where he currently resides, the diverse nature of the music scene in his home-town has given culture a wide array of soundscapes to influence his music, taking inspiration from jazz, funk, and hip-hop as well as house and techno.

it is neither a new computer game, nor a novelist - but most certainly the tightest live formation that jazz & milk has to offer to date! gta hoffmann sips out of your ear, sways your hips and bypasses the vessels of your awareness, 120 times per minute. three musicians, experienced in diverse and manifold musical areas, play their own and unique creation of live dance music. beni brachtel, aka bartellow (guitar), lukas rabe (keys) and gabriel hahn (drums) operate their instruments as armatures of turning knobs, sliders and effect pedals and pave their way through earthy rnb grooves, wooden house and analogue elevator-minimalism. as improvisers and composers they love to play with shapes, moods and all types of sounds. the result is pure energy, which inspires deep listening, immersion and dancing. what appears to be an artificially produced electronica record is in fact the live sound of a trio, which levitates through space and time - far away from any musical categorization - while sonically complementing and reorganizing earthly pulse.

for 124 recordings 4th release, austrian producer fabe steps up, and with the help of 2 killer remixes, delivers an ep that ticks all the boxes the original dusty chords starts as it means to go on with a baseline that instantly draws you into the groove before the chords lighten the mood and show you what this track is all about....

following his recent collaborations with ai records, electronique.it, and icon of desire, passenger finally comes back to eclipsemusic to release a new 12 vinyl record, titled chord abuse ep. the release takes off with solar flare, one of passengers most airy, housey and positive works till now, with its melodic sequence and uplifting atmosphere. on the same side of the 12 inch, surface debris de-construct the classic techno elements to build an abstract, moody, hyper-cynetic slice of futuristic techno. on side b solar flare gets then a special remix treatment by stephen brown, one of the most personal and notable european techno producers: the result is a tight, swinging rework of tiny slices of the original, turning the track into a classic techno builder..

a special edition series focused on the rare, historical works of deepchord. the long out of print deepchord catalog has since been remastered and will finally be available again on this gorgeous triple lp set. its been a lengthy and timely process restoring old analog tape, dat and cassette recordings (some dating back to 1994) all of which have been carefully resurrected from the vault of detroits revered nsc studio

pascal viscardi is a young producer from switzerland . he arrives on tep with a brilliant two-tracks ep : mark e (merc / tsuba) & session victim (delusions of grandeur) on remix(es) duties

first new album from the echospace duo since the critically acclaimed >liumin< double album on manchesters beloved modern love imprint. the sonic structure of this album was the basis for what later became >liumin< released on modern love but this exploration is something all together different, left untreated and unprocessed from its original 1/2 inch tape to preserve the natural organic state of the recording.

ho tep presents a raw and ice cold ep of grime instrumentals with a fresh and visoral twist. produced by spainsh upstart noaipre - an affilate of mwselee and bfelcha - the horda ep is the sound of pirate radio gone crazy. this is what happens when east london infects the minds of our europena conterparts. disconpubulated neon riddims. enjoy.
early support from elijah & skilliam, brackles, j rocc, chrissy murderbot, mweslee

this is the debut vinyl release from up & coming producer jim morton. the 12 inch presents two different flavours of the jungle sound. the a side is nyc-dub, a heavy duty track with plenty of pace and energy. an atmospheric vibe is present but the production still carries enough weight with the beats and sub to work the dance floor. think ray keith meets breakage!
on side b, >underwater chord< is again a jungle bass tune but on a different vibe. it is a brighter sounding track, due to the chords and sounds used, which wouldnt be out of place in a liquid style production. with both tracks there is a tip of the cap towards the old skool sound.

rolling funky grooves galore! marcel sterling finally finished his long awaited debut on style rockets limited. with a furious tech house 4 tracker full of percussive grooves and hypnotic deep basslines. all killers no fillers.<br >early support by: axel bartsch, butch, david keno, dualton, hanne & lore, m.in, monika kruse, nic fanciulli, rene bourgeois, the junkies & many more!

neapolitan techno powerhouse unrilis delivers a brand new ep from gaetano parisio in the form of needing chords. up there with the likes of adam beyer, ben sims and marco carola as one of the premier exponents of european techno, parisios reputation is backed up by an enviable discography and touring schedule. needing chords, backed by a remix from another neapolitan legend in rino cerrone, is a heavy-set, muscular techno-workout which builds with unbridled intensity. cerrones remix is considerably more stripped but loses none of the originals power. moodier and with a sinister edge, its an interpretation which provides an exciting slant on the original. the skippy funk of fake stuff follows and does so with a playful urgency. threaded with a snaking white noise motif that ebbs and flows under staccato keys, its hugely hypnotic while not loosing its groove. finally, its the trippy synths of program meanings that close the ep. heavily layered the track constantly and fluidly shifts with filters revealing new combinations of layers throughout while a funk licked bassline and heavy drums do the rest. hope the usa tour was fun!

another first for electric minds, we present the debut 12 inch from endian. with follow up releases already signed to non plus and further label support to come we are sure it wont be too long before his music reaches a wider audience. we would like to let the music do the talking :)

one chord to rule them all! deetron, octave one & jori hulkkonen put their hands on some brikha classics!!! in 1998 aril brikha reacquainted the world with deep techno soul, as his record groove la chord crossed generic boundaries.

nikola gala has been producing for the past 10 years and received big attention during the years 2004-2005 by the music industry for the release of the track >swing 2 harmony< along with the perasma band. at the same time he produced some well respected tracks which found home on labels like deep records, intrinsic, fokused, sprout music, precinct, renaissance, lost language audio therapy and now also on plastic city again.

with the second release on 200 records the cologne based duo raucherecke presents >chordhose< – a sophisticated groover with an phenomenally drunken piano. marcel janovsky has remixed this gem to a typical treibstoff sound – in a perfect manner. our beloved b2 is devoted to >gitarre<, a melancholic guitar smasher.

nice price package, contains 200 records 001 & 200 records 010 plus downloadcode.

diynamic and h.o.s.h. are back with an exciting and fresh release! cash the chord which also is the pre-released single from h.o.s.h.s album debut connecting the dots (out in october) is a warm piece of future funk house music that doesnt want to be pressed in further explanation by words. just feel it baby! along with it come three colourful remixes that transport the original in other directions. where as audiojack and ntfo clearly have the floor in mind you will find a totally different more experimental approach by 360 (nuno dos santos and patrice bäumel). once again h.o.s.h. and diynamic deliver pure!

futurist techno that needs some time to listen to, but can also surprise you with sound sensations never heard before, even after playing the track a 100 times.

echospace are proud to announce the third ep from the forthcoming cv313 album, >dimensional space<. this release marks the first remix from one of the uks most revered talents -- king midas sound (the bug) who manages to take the original in a direction one would never expect, creeping and trembling right at the very core of your very being. this is truly the midst of something beautiful, its haunting, infectious and has no restrictions to gravity, this is truly something to float in. next we have a heady subliminal interpretive from seattles, rafael anton irisarri as the sight below (ghostly) there is a reason why his sound has even turned the head of radiohead front man thom yorke and if i had to guess i would say its rafaels emotional range, he tugs right at the heart strings. this mix is as narcotic as you would expect, a slow motion dream where in every twist and turn a new detail unfolds, its like visiting an unexplored world -- subtle and hypnotic. on the b side (our first sound snippet) we have a more 4/4 number culled from deepchord presents: echospace (modern love) live set from this past year. this one has been tried and tested at countless shows and club floors around the world. its all about that syncopated bassline, a subterranean bottom and an atmosphere as deep as the ocean floor -- this is underwater space funk.

brand new deadmau5 one sided release thats been smashing up his live shows all over the world.

>vibrational studies (in echospace)< is an alternate version of album opener >in echospace< and revolves around a relentless cycle of washed-out analogue loops layered around submerged field recordings and electric currents that somehow propel the track while at the same time immersing it in one of the headiest mixes hitchell and modell have ever recorded. >symbolism in transition< finds modell deploying a deep and padded configuration with a sort of late night shuffle so beloved of move d, all squashed house vibes, sparkling melodic currents and bursts of barely- there white noise û its a gentle, beautiful thing.

after two quality eps by egbert and peter horrevorts and a dj compilation by secret cinema, the label front man presents his first ep on gem: glad chord!

following the huge rüfdug release was never going to be easy, an all ears bestseller last year and heard just about everywhere over summer and beyond, but the ppf crew have lined up a heavyweight release schedule for this burgeoning offshoot label, and we’re very excited to present the second release over the last few years ooft!’s ali alongside graeme ‘revenge’ clark have taken the underground music scene by storm crafting their own unique, trademark sound in the often overpopulated ‘edits’ market, pretty much single-handedly instigating the pitched down house sound resurgence & running a superb blog, digital promotions company and forging ahead with their own productions as well as being consumate dj’s and party throwers .

christian and his band also apply their open-minded jazz attitude to the minimalist house throb of groove la chord by the stockholm-based aril brikha. a crescendo of liquid beats and feverish drums, the track builds to a breathless carnival rush, then sinks back to pure pulsating rhythm again. magnificent.

donovan is a french parisian duo consisting of david saïd and nicolas nekmouche, formed in 2007. influenced by black music, french touch and techno as much as contemporary artists, donovan created an original sound, melodic and also very club, with tracks like >breakin, released on work it baby, a track featuring jessica rizzo released on gigolo records etc. so combining their respective influences, they obtain tracks full of energy and depth. the band hits the bulls eye and remixes requests start to pour in. among them two tracks of sebastien tellier for record makers, teenage bad girl, arnaud rebotini and several rock bands. dont pass on this one !

scott ferguson back on kinda soul for a new detroit house story!!

peter kruder is one of those emblematic names that lead a whole decade and inspire myriads of djs, producers and clubbers all over the world. while he enjoys unprecedented success with kruder & dorfmeister and crossed into the platinum range (selling 1 million copies of the k&d sessions album), he never lost track of the underground. probably his stellar career would never have happened exactly this way if there wasn’t the other kruder: the adventurous dj, the deep producer, the challenging a&r at g-stone, the producer behind dj hell’s highly acclaimed “teufelswerk” album. in 15 years peter kruder has done only 3 singles under his own name though. when you get your ears around “chordal” and “law of return” it becomes totally clear why this rare outing happens on macro. kruder meets his macro debut full on modernism - showcasing his deep, dark, dancefloor grounded side. with a crisp harmonic sequence reminiscent of tchaikovsky’s nutcracker suite, “chordal” hijacks brains on the dancefloor with its vacuum depth and sizzling details. “law of return” on the other side is a kruder signature take on deepness - solemn chords wrapped around a hypnotic groove give you tears of joy. a masterpiece!
