three formidable names from the romanian house/techno scene combine on this sumptuous new ep for the burgeoning wrong state imprint. in various combinations, jay bliss, mihai popoviciu and pagal have previously collaborated on tracks like bis com on diynamic and eucalipt / melange on fear of flying, and count releases on 2020 vision, popcorn records, suara, highgrade records and area remote between them. their first joint effort in some time yields some superb results.

label boss dj bone mans the controls for the 38th release on subject detroit, laying down a typically fierce, three pronged auditory attack. *what he said* tactfully yet forcefully treads the line between house and techno, cherry picking physiognomies from each side of that ever-blurring line and constructing something fresh but bristling with familiar subject detroit elegances. a favourite fixture from bones more recent dj sets, *i do* sees bubbling, arpeggiated chords simmer and swoop from foreground to background loosely as one solitary, remanipulated ticking hat keeps things in formation. watch out for the thunderous, doubled-up drum arrangement that crashes in to the picture out of nowhere! b side track *rhythm soul funk* is a genuine hard hitter and another that tiptoes between the old school and the nouveau.

great remixes by com truise, girl unit, keep shelly in athens and renaissance man.

fantastische live-versionen der größten hits von disco-queen donna summer, aufgenommen am 28. februar 1999 im hammerstein ballroom, new york city. high fidelity pressung auf schwerem 180 gramm vinyl im klappcover.

we have been proud to watch the rise of oleg poliakov after he first joined our ranks with datcha musik way back in 2007. since first swearing allegiance to the circus, he has continued to unfurl a refined approach to house and techno that carefully balances a respectful mastery of the classic tropes of the genre with his own instinct for seductive melodic content.

this autumn bernard fevre returns with *black moon, white sun*, his 7 th album as the black devil, a mask he has worn since 1978 to conjure up analogue disco dreams from the ether and cast a spell over dancefloors around the world. released on the ancient festival of samhain (october 31st) when the barriers between our world and the next are said to be thinnest, *black moon, white sun* is your own personal gateway to an altered state of mind.

dj sliink, springing from the jersey club scene, has built an impressive reputation for his contributions to north american dance music. so much so that vibe magazine included him on their list of 30 djs to watch. his angular, spare take on club music can be described as straight forward, as much as a punch in the face can be described as straight forward anyway

after three quality releases, woods n bass records vinyl-only series receives the labels mastermind merino, to deliver his first 12 on his own imprint. the colombian dj and producer presents four cuts of melodic but yet killer techno, and in which medula, the title track, offers you a space riff of detroit sounds that will fill any dancefloor, making it a great secret weapon for any dj to pull out at the right moment. better watch out for this one, south american techno at its best.

support by juan atkins, brothers vibe, valnetino kanzyani, ray okpara, guy j, andre galuzzi, phil kieran, chris lattner, rampa, nekes, federico molinari, fimo, patrick bateman, mathias schaffhaeuser and many more! enough! music is back with its newest ep package made from three berlin based artists who bring their own unique sound and styles, a stong statement that these three rising talents are certainly ones to watch closely over this coming year. first we must speak about the two originals provided by george p., aptly named <start> and <stop>, each track carries the signature drive and syncopation typical in any george p. track. <start> is a hypnotic and smooth tech driver, pushing forward with intense percussion rhythms, haunting synth lines and intense pads in support, this has all the hallmarks of any classic detroit cut only with more panache. <stop> continues in the same vain with a raw and jacking tech mix, the intensity growing as the track evolves, a driving stab and tom bass establish a funkiness that becomes infectious and certainly a big dance floor number. the first remix comes from label boss danilo schneider who is <pause remix> of start brings on a solid deep groove perfect for the early hours, yet doesn t loose any of the intensity of the original, this is danilo at his very best and most definitely one killer deep ass shaker here!last but not least is the second remix is by edgar jack who is version of <stop> (aptly named <you know i don t want to>) manages to capture all the rawness and colour of the original as a funky, jacking mix with deep dubby basses and a nasty swing groove that will knock your hip out…yes, you ve been warned.enough! music delivers once again with a very strong and promising ep that will certainly please the dance floor and rumble those speakers from side to side, these three gents from berlin have delivered four powerful and unique cuts that you know you can just simply sink your teeth into.

we are pleased to welcome back the extremely talented need for mirrors duo back to the dispatch camp. here they strike completely on the money with the hard hitting funk-led *sling blade* and backing up the a side we have a heavy slice of bristol themed flavour for 2013 with *grapefruit*. both tracks present a clear nod to the old school and inspirational late 90s sounds we always loved (but never left!). need for mirrors prove again with this release that they are quite simply on a roll both as individual artists that make up the nfm duo and in their own individual right, definitely ones to watch for the rest of 2013 and beyond.

the beats have an edge, the chords are not trying too hard, the composition is perfectly crafted to hit all the right spots. when that crowd is thirsty for more heat, pull out this record, drop one of the tracks and watch everyone go wild!

massive dj support from ricardo villalobos, dixon, marcus worgull, me, scuba, tale of us, agoria, kyodai...
the konstantin sibold remix is destined to be one of the biggest club hits of this year! the originals and the simon garcia remix are also top notch. watch out for konstantin sibold s remix of as goes the sun which is due later this year.

despite having a weird and unpronounceable name, 2methylbulbe1ol, once again is about spread some slammin dubstep over your kitchen floor. this young artist from france appeared already on the ruff label. he has always provided some harsh and extremely well produce sounds. watch out for more crazyness to come from this lad...

introducing the house of 12 vol.2, also including some new artists on this one. a1 is with martin bell, uk, the man behind all those videos on youtube about >how to make house music with soul<. a jazzy house raw tune, proper sound for a proper dancefloor. a2 is a mysterious band from croatia, rare people house brand, all stuffed with vintage gears as well, presenting a house/disco song with a fucking good syncopatic crescendo and some hypnotic vocal. b1 is an italian guy, jacy, and his talented attitude to resume a disappeared vibe from old italian house from the early 90s, mixed with a new touch, so its not revival, its a new life about that genre!! b2 is the worst of the band, as usual, deep88, here with a raw-all-played-track that hasnt seen any sequencer, just a multitrack tape overdubbing and mpc.

we first discovered young glasweigian talent barrientos in 2012 via the always on point synthglasgow.com blog. his debut mix for them effortly mixed tracks from atjazz and matthew styles to loco dice, vince watson and steve rschmad and took the listener from the early bounce as the club doors open right through to hands-in-the air madness of a packed dancefloor. we loved it. he alsoreleased the good-time, sun-soaked sky ep (for free via soundcloud) around the same time and the quality of both his music and production really stood out from the crowd.

nicholas desamory is proud to announce his latest basement luxury for the crowd. attention: with the purchase of a gold & diamonds 12 you get all the glamour money can buy. im so blase is the new imprint of berlin based producers and long term colleagues hanno leichtmann and nicholas bussmann aka the vulva string quartett and nicholas desamory.the label is named after their favorite song by the red krayola. this year we start the label with five releases: two vsq 12 and two nicholas desamory 12 at the end of the year a 12 from both of us remixing a very special guest .while people know hanno leichtmann and nicholas bussmann for doing a wide range of music im so blase has a clear focus, so what to expect? cinematic slow house & disco for the passionate dancer and listener. all 12 come in an intense red sleeve, so watch out for red sleeves. the wonderful handwritten i‘m so blasé is by lucy mckenzie

andres zacco & cape, two old friends and part of the esperanza family come back to the label to deliver a two track ep full of deepness and dubby yet summerish feeling. melodies, pads. chords, strings... just perfect to watch the sun rise from the sea on the beach.

daren agers debut vinyl release! daren is a very well known and respected analog synth/modul teacher on the internet. having his own youtube channel with 2.5 million clicks we thought it was time to introduce this genius to the vinyl lovers as well! darens main influences come from the likes of drexciya, model 500, derrick may and carl craig. when listening to summer in detroit you can feel the influences from these heroes. there is a warm and beautiful detroit flavor all the way thru the track. on the b-side you will find halcyon days which is a acid-house track that makes you want to jump into the time capsule and travel straight back to the warehouse in chicago or the hacienda in manchester

part 3 of the emotional relish series sees robi insinnas work remixed by a quartet of british producers. death in vegas overseer richard fearless tackles >be loved< starting with an ethereal loop that builds on top of itself before the beat kicks in and the remix heads for the dark (leather) dancefloor. mr andy blake channels the collective spirits of the slits, the pop group and killing joke on his space echo laden remix of >adolescent sex< whilst weatherall acolyte scott fraser returns to the relish cause with a typically chugging rendition of >turning< that has found favour from croatia boat parties to the catwalks of paris s/s 2013 no less (check youtube for evidence). cosey club founder richard d clouston slows down the tempo for a brooding, mind bending take on >blue girls<.

after the stunning merk earlier this year on vs sister label philly blunt, the london based duo make the transition to v recordings for the innovative reset ep, the highlights of which make up this classic vinyl release. their previous release on v back in 2011, greazy, became a cult classic and a youtube favourite.

continuing his extraordinarily productive 2013, the industrious daniel steinberg returns once again, still riding high off of the success of his critically acclaimed sophomore album treptow which was released mere months ago. despite being profiled on pete tongs show as one to watch in early may, hes certainly not been resting on his laurels

>leg spin< is the new vinyl spin-off for more dancefloor-oriented track

belfast bass producer unknown who has built up a huge following with a steady stream of tunes on youtube and soundcloud, made his vinyl debut with last years #001-010 series on champion sound recordings, and now he returns to the label with his best and most diverse work yet, the i cry ep. the unknown trademarks – waves of sub-bass, expertly swung percussion and a dark, seductive and tense atmosphere – are all there, and he is pushing into new and fascinating territories too, with some brighter textures, house vibes and his first ever vocal collaboration on the stunning title track, *i cry*.

beach mode (keep it simple) is the perfect snapshot of ikonikas new album aerotropolis. it is also her first vocal track, graced with the voice of *one to watch*, jessy lanza. beach mode combines sunny salsa-like chords and claves, inspired by latin freestyle dance music from the 80s, with jessys vocals cutting in over some soaring rough synths. it is a refreshingly straight forward and sensual piece of pop dance. side b starts with a dub mix for all the vocal haters, while the percapella version breaks it down into a syncopated drum track and a slightly dubbed take on the vocals, giving it a tracky and colder toughness reminiscent of early chicago house music. get into beach mode.

pins and needles are proud to present you the first release in 2013 and it is truly a special one! loquace - back again includes two remixes from ittetsu and yamen & eda. the original tracks back again and time is on time are straight up pumping house music for unforgettable peak time moments whereas the diversity pushes the limits with a deep and minimalistic ittetsu remix of back again and a more upbeat, housey yamen & eda remix of time is on time! we are very happy to have such a great selection of artists on one release and we are sure this ep holds something for everyone!

lil jabba isnt like the rest of them. while they are busy joining the dots between house and techno or whatever is safe right now, he is throwing paint all over the page. he is not american, but he is affiliated with chicagos teklife crew (dj spinn, dj rashad, etc.) and divides his time between baltimore and brooklyn, exhibiting his visual art, riding around with his bike gang and making some of the most hypnotic juke and footwork you will ever hear. local action have been figuring out a release with him for over a year - eventually an ep wasnt enough, and they persuaded him to make it a full-length album, scales. some of scales has already seen the light of day through youtube or limited cassette releases, some of it is unheard. some tracks sound cleaner than others, that is because they are newer. that is how these things work. what is consistent throughout scales is the quality: across 12 tracks, jabba flips, twists and inverts the footwork template with endless layers of samples, gurgled vocal tags, jazz licks and whatever else he feels like. these arent trax, they are tapestries.

the first release of belgian producer r. hiele. this album consists of 7 electronic tracks that represent the kick off for the ekster label. rattling 808s, brain bend synth lines and sideways grooves. limited edition of 200 copies with download code. dream or die silk-screened a1 size poster included.

better than a classic cafe del mar compilation, piano cloud offers the sweet samplings of balearic ambience mixed with the cheeky love-hangover of a disco-dance-diana instrumental.

little is known about mysterious producer tommy rawson. our first acquaintance was the aptly named shy track on red rackems smugglers inn 001 release. we tried to find out more but the trail got cold pretty quick. it was not until hearing gilles peterson playing a version of hugh masekelas dont go lose it baby on his show that word got around, tommy rawson was back. this particular anthemic track found its way to mats who then started playing it out and every time, in every club no matter where in the world the reaction was same, people completely lost it on the dance floor! we had but no choice to release the track and luckily enought tommy must have a sixth sense because at the same time mats blasted the track at the local talk office to convince tooli shouting: this is the next big release for local talk, i m telling you! another track made it into his mailbox, the soulful house jam brenda done died with no name. both tracks ended up on this 12 inch of course. mr rawson has delivered the goods here, warm, sunsplashed music all the way. a name to watch for this year and probably not mysterious for long.

the green series is the continuing art and music project from bleep.com, giveupart, and photographer shaun bloodworth. this will be the third limited edition 12 inch in the series. each record comes with a die-cut sleeve, embossed outer and hand-stamped detail. the double a-side single features the pairing of redshape and steffi and once again brings you raw techno. the mysterious red-masked producer redshape provides a track titled focus whilst berlin techno royalty steffi delivers the aptly named attacke.

deadly poison is the fourth installment of st petersburg-based producer sanys on discerning downfall theory series. retaining to the a/b format and treading a heady, analogue-hued line with releases thus far on predecessors control freak / event horizon, forward thinking logic and daily situation which supported a stunning rework from chicago-based, detroit-born producer alex israel, deadly poison continues to march on in gritty, idiosyncratic fashion only this time fractioning off and multiplying into four distinct, yet symbiotic floor workouts. on the a-side hired guns kicks off with no-holds barred, full-on weighty bass weaponry before grab them back in reins things in, just a little: a dystopic soundtrack full of clanging machines rung through with the filmy dread of a waning humanity. on the b-side concern continues in plain rude as distorted vocals are twisted into evil barks and plied with itchy hats to warning chimes and a bounding bassline in this weird and wonky builder. down and dirty then concludes—as the title suggests—in deep, raw analogue terrain. having already caught the attention of people like blawan, rivet and brendon moeller, deadly poison consolidates sanys skills as a one to watch maker of provocative, sensitive and fiercely independent dance music.

support from ltj bukem, bailey, a-sides, technimatic, bachelors of science, phil tangent, pennygiles, lsb, bbc radio 1, bassdrive.com, and many more.

already the third part of the seven daze a week compilation series and again some delicious house music here - plus new faces at morris audio! jmx (2020 vision, tsuba) is making his debut with the fat gotta be tune. watch out for more jmx on morris soon. another new face on morris is duff disco with his deep and epic track come home. and the third new addition is german fella nick beringer, a true house head with releases on the cool wax classics (skylax) label. last but not least is sek, joining us again with some techy house for this compilation as he already did on morris audio 81.

it has been exciting to watch outboxx take shape over the past two years, chasing their vision for a more meaningful kind of deep house music via jakes intense attention to detail, matts way with the keys and naomis arresting voice. it has been a steady progression, reaching out to select labels but keeping things largely close to home on idle hands, immerse and brstl, while their tracks have developed in ever more confident strides.

in the here and now of house and techno, a flux is taking place. the newest generation of souls possessed by the beat has never had a better chance to look back at the unbridled creativity and vitality of the 80s and 90s, and channel it into their contemporary creations. the gospel of youtube and a wealth of mixes with convenient tracklists make it easy for the lazy artist to absorb what was great before and reflect it in their contemporary productions. this of course is of no concern for someone like franck roger

the bomb that should have dropped way back when. after a career spanning almost two decades dj overdose debuts on creme with his first full length album, upon which we remark with carefully considered understatement: a veritable tour de resistance in film noir electronics, bizarro world is a dank and dark alley made flesh

• 3d!t aka ed giles and queaver (formerly of queaver and versis) both step up with a split ep for horror boogies fourth release !
• a timely re-issue from this great label – watch out for backstock !

die yippiee-vögel aus hannover haben für ihre neue ep ihre fühler jedenfalls weit ausgestreckt und bis ins ferne all gefunkt, um letztendlich eine nachricht aus ihrer eigenen stadt zu bekommen.der hannoveraner sebi mono aka bass tikal, der eigentlich eher fans von dnb und dubstep bekannt ist, hatte mit seinem partner aus bristol mehrere neue raketen gebaut und konnte seine langjährigen freunde sofort von ihrer mission begeistern. euphorisiert vom neuentdeckten machte sich mono und die vögel sofort an die arbeit. kurz vor dem start der ersten zweiwöchigen 12-mission und der folgenden zusätzlichen digitalen streifzüge freut sich das gesamte team euch nun ihren hoffnungsträger vorzustellen:da eine schallplatte ohne qualitätsverluste nur eine bestimmte track-länge zulässt, fanden sich am ende exakt drei tracks, die nun den dunklen weg der macht bestreiten. auf der a-seite findet sich das mehr als 10-minütiges debüt der beiden neuen vögel. hipster und youtube-kritiker würden dieses stück wohl als episch beschreiben. das yippiee-team fand aber, dass der titel stellar völlig ausreicht und ihren griff zu den sternen gut genug beschreibt. bei den tracks auf der b-seite handelt es sich hingegen um sehr an der bassline orientierte tracks, die auch durch die unvoreingenomme und unkonventionelle herangehensweise der beiden dnb-produzenten ihre gewisse würze erhält. neben durchaus bekannten grooves zeichnet besonders der feinfühlige einsatz von flächigen sounds im zusammenspiel mit prägnanten, aber auch maßvollen vocals diese ep aus.

championsound continue to blaze a trail, showcasing some of the hottest new talent to emerge from irelands vibrant music scene!! following hot on the heels of the premiere release on champion sound in 2013 , next in line comes the work of prolific northern irish producer, t-polar, whose previous releases on acroplane, saigon recordings, morris audio, !kaboogie records and rebirth garnered the support of everyone from mary anne hobbs to 2562 to boddika. in keeping with his previous output and adding to what must surely be irelands deepest discography in electronic music (dating back to 2004), t-polar (aka gary spence) releases feetwork, an ep which hop-scotches genres, roughened up by the searing properties of hoover bass, teamed with tough, rolling kicks, nods to leftfield house and vintage rave, and peppered with skittering two-step grit. the remix in the pack comes from the increasingly ubiquitous unknown whose youtube uploads and remixes have been setting the internet alight with speculation.

lower east, the brainchild of cozzy d & lee brinx, returns with michael jansons brand new single *addiction*. following his debut release *i know you re feeling ok*, jansons returns with this slick new offering, stamping his authority as one to watch for 2013. title track *addiction* kicks off the proceedings and is deceptively ambient, before jansons drops in a pulsing bassline that rolls out under mizbees eerie yet classy original vocal.
*addiction* is given the remix treatment by none-other than detroit dub master marc mk kinchen. mk retains the deep, gritty and brooding elements of the original, adding his own trademark organ riffs. on the flip side *just us* deliver a more uplifting affair, with a precision bassline and chopped and cut vocal samples adding a touch of soul to give the record and overtly classic house feel.

need u (100%) is finally released to the masses and is already off to an incredible start with annie mac making it her special delivery and tipping duke as one of her ones to watch for 2013. radio and club plays have come in thick and fast from the likes of pete tong, zane lowe, toddla t, trevor nelson, nick grimshaw and mistajam bridging the boundary firmly between dance and urban. skream loved the track so much he asked if he could do a skreamixfor the ep. a waze & odyssey remix cements this super hot package from the super hot dj/ producer.

raw analogue alchemies delivered with all the sleek and polish of its black-on-black casing made bryan blacks edlx debut last year as blackasteroid a truly memorable one, consolidating all of the motor mans proven paisley park-honed engineering capabilities into a succinct and forward-facing ep. defined by its gritty textures, fizzy white noise manipulations and a signature mechanical hum throughout, black acid achieved a uniquely tactile sound quality, reaffirming bryan black as a formidable one to watch under his revised blackasteroid guise.

one of the most interesting artists in the field of music releases his long-awaited lp debut. its titel
* times*
is appropriately chosen, though indeed it seems to be timeless.

killekill 012 is being delivered by dubliner eomac, aka ian mcdonnell, aka half of lakker, who has proven himself as one prducer to watch. his sound design is extreme and unique. he creates dense atmospheres and fills them with subtle melodic elements, that are being pushed forward by heavy basslines and markable kick drums. with club play by no less than aphex twin, eomac is a name that is on the verge of exploding onto the scene.
