limited raw sounding dubby house edit !! killer!! sorry, but its no a high fidelity sound... very very dirty and raw

released on the always reliable hit farm neon gold, which has given the world marina & the diamonds, ellie goulding, your twenties and penguin prison among others, starsmith is a super-hip young producer who has worked with ellie on her album, as well as remixing marina, passion pit, nerd and loads of others. its a scorching electro-tinged pop demon, glam without the cheese, and reminiscent of the kind of smashes that the french house lords of the mid 90s (like fred falke and alan braxe - more on him later...) were ruling dance music with. great sample from an old ritchie family (clip below...) disco stomper from the 80s which powers the whole thing with a undeniable hands-in-the-air vibe. a big autumn hit!

glaswegian producer, label owner and globe trotting dj graeme clark, aka the revenge, takes on holy ghost!s >say my name< – a song from the duos ep static on the wire that, in its original incarnation, is a lovely, smooth slice of electronic pop. the revenge re-models the single three times over, into a trio of distinct remixes all bearing his unmistakable signature. first up on the vinyl 12inch is the revenge remix, which starts out like a hollowed-out, hall-of-echoes version of its predecessor and then grows – bit by bit and synth by syth – into a gorgeous swirl. on the revenge instrumental, clark ups the disco ante, removing the vocal melody and replacing it with elements equally as compelling: a classic beat, synthesized strings, double handclaps, and an essential electric bassline

austrian musican martin brunner aka madney moon scores with two refreshing tracks. with a wonderful catchy melody, the first track >is it hot< sounds quite imposing. patrick kunkel (coccon recordings) does a very nice remix and straightens the framework. the second original mix >is it what< is a powerful contemporary techno track with a dark concise vocal. its therefore no wonder that rocco caine does his typical deep interpretation of that track. the remix sounds monstrous and gives your spoilt feet all they want and love on the techfloor.

after a lengthy break from the electronic music world, genotype is back with an lp for exit records and provides a lesson in stripped back dub influenced music at approximately 170 bpm. having started his music career in the mid nineties under the legendary alias just jungle, with releases on the massively influential labels of that era such as trouble on vinyl, renegade hardware and reinforced records, its no surprise that he has managed to capture the essence of rawness in his recent music akin to the early years of jungle. many producers have tried and failed to bring back the old skool sound with an original flavor but genotype has managed this by resisting the temptation to lash in the tired old classic breaks and instead has drawn for the more organic sounding percussion and drum kits. the dubbed out theme runs throughout the album paying homage to his love for west indian music which he has been involved in for many years and naturally influences the music he creates. genotype is a man of few words and prefers to let his music do the talking so check out the album and draw your own conclusions.

egbert provides an energetic yet deep and hypnotic techno track while roger martinez delivers a giorgio moroderesque italo influenced tech houser. on the flip, its kaap de goede hoop who bring some warm deep housey flavours to the mix and arjuna schiks who finishes it off with a big funky percussive groover.

goodvibe records project is an effort to expand the boundaries of hugo, and his favourite producers music, beyond standard nightclub beats. after the bright side, its time to reveal hugos dark side for the second release of his new imprint goodvibe records. hugo takes the listener down the darker alleys of his production and demonstrates to himself that 4/4 beats are made of many different feelings. we are all strongly attracted by the dark side of life, of humor, of music. it doesn’t make us bad persons, but in fact make us as comfortable with ourself as we could possibly be. it lightens the seriousness of subjects dubbed taboo. lets go on the dark side!
