the new deetron single, with part 1 featuring marcel dettmann on remix duties, >lets get over it< is a gloriously soulful techno masterpiece. deetrons early detroit and chicago influences are evident in the music. tough and groovy with some warped synth action, that weaves its way around the lush, warm vocals of justin. not only do you have the great original, but music man have produced an embarrassment of riches for you, with three huge remixes. first up is berghain resident marcel dettmann. known for his outstanding and original productions on osgut ton and his own label mdr. he produces something fresh yet surprisingly old skool in sound. this mix has already been licensed by dettmann for his latest compilation

minimal phreak out strong release by this swedish dream team of clicks n cuts.. after the fantastic gez varley and geoff white releases in the past few months, persistencebit returns strong once more with the swedish minimal techno artists johan skugge and mikael stavöstrand, who work their collaborative gear into a feverish lather on a new trio of high-octane cuts. immaculately constructed and executed with precision, the duos material isnt as skeletal as one might expect-ample noise and commotion appear alongside the tunesgrooves-and, in its acidy moments, pink phantom sometimes sounds like audion, albeit in a slightly less raucous frame of mind

superb reissue of ron trent s all-time deep techno classic altered states. made when he was still school-age, and released in 1990 on armandos seminal warehouse label, this record was an immediate underground club hit, turning ron into a local hero, kickstarting his hugely successful production and djing career and making him probably the only chicago house producer to rate one of the best techno singles of all time! this classic acid workout is stunning in its simplicity and has been described as one of the most perfect and moving tracks ever heard. the other tracks are also very beautiful in their own right despite having been overshadowed by the epic altered states - the afterlife was included on dj hells x-mix-5. all tracks digitally remastered for superb sound quality

dub & detroitish techno at its best !!

yore returns with a true dream team split ep, pairing yore label head andy vaz with sistrum manager patrice scott. vaz is up first with a beautiful slice of old-school funk and soul within a deep house formula, >back to square one< that has a whole lot more in common with isaac hayes and james brown than with juan atkins or any other techno icon. accompanied by a wah-wah guitar figure and claps, a bullet-proof bass line leads a nine-minute charge thats quickly bolstered by a slinkily swinging drum groove. creamy synth chords and blazing horns intermittently spill over the pulsating mix and then vanish, leaving space for the rhythm to intensify and the track to grow ever more euphoric (and even, towards its close, a bit acidy). a true mission into both funk and house, which again showcases vazs ultimate diversity as an outstanding producer. scott titled his second sistrum release beyond deep and the title might just as easily apply to the b-side >aztecal< where the detroit producer slathers shimmering stabs and congealing streams over a thudding kick drum and flickering percussive detail. while vazs cut draws inspiration from the timeless traditions of decades past, scotts looks towards the future when its gleaming shuttle lifts off in pursuit of distant galaxies.

funky soulful house businezz by jay j!! check out the flipside with its stripped down deep groovin funker!!

in love with mathias kaden, giles smith, philip sherburne!! gel abril delivers the goods once again on be as one with two singles that offer a slightly different twist on gel’s output. sitting on the a side >spells of yoruba< is that kind of tune that once dropped on the floor it will make the people groove like mad. in its simplicity this tune will have dancefloor rockin to the chunky groove and the mesmerizing vocal snippet. ask the handfull of lucky ones who are already dropping it wordwide. on the b side, >marir< has a good mix of tribal groove and uptempo rhythm that gives the tracks it driving force and energy and guaratee another sure hit on the floor

bangkok impact returns just before the summer with 2 great tunes. la musche is a masculine disco monster that kicks ass! a 8 minute monster that has powerfull basslines making the room explode when being dropped at the right moment. will be big with all the fans of rekids, prins thomas and lindstrom. b-side is used for a track called caro (coming in two versions.. original & disco version). a perfect summer hymne that will make people smile when its being dropped at the main stage at the summer festivals.

like a proper immigrant family enjoying the life of culturally greener pastures, the vakant family continues to grow in berlin. closely following the exponential trend of mergers and acquisitions in the multi national corpo borg, vakant heavy industries signs the third in a series of new talent to the team. berlins dewalta a.k.a. david koch, long time friend of vakant, has completed assimilation into the freaky fold. a side salgaro is about as obese as a track can get. its happy, its huge, its pan ethnic, its sensitive, its irreverent. its so good it was immediately used for onur ozers up coming club dj mix cd. on the aa side farina lives. its freakier, its smoother, its quirkier, its cup runs massively over. we are talking insulin shock plump. we cant even identify which genres it spans. it sounds like the amalgamation of everything currently succulent and lots more that will be

we are pleased as punch to have this one on dissident. as you no doubt know one half of naum gabo is mr jonnie wilkes aka one half of optimo and unless i got totally the wrong end of the stick when i spoke to jonnie this is the first actual naum gabo release after a bunch of excellent remixes. its a low slung groove for all proper dancefloors with a rubbery bassline, an uber-classic arpeggio, a super-cool synth line and all manner of dubby spacey trippy business going on. i guess this one will fly out even quicker than usual so get them skates on people

essential tech-house interpretation of the jazz standard! tip ! at the core of >take five< is a warm, fluttering piano loop that wouldnt sound out of place on a nina simone record. around these rich, faintly jazzy chords, jona builds a thrillingly direct, percussive track which nods to the passion and polish of classic 90s house music. a shuffling snare pattern and a tough, buoyant kickdrum combine with the keys to give the dancefloor a workout it wont forget. this is smart, optimistic stuff from jona, a ready-made soundtrack for hands in the air at late summers parties. >sunset< is a darker but no less seductive affair. its skeleton is a supple, minimalist groove, undercut with a raw, rangy bassline, and topped by tight snares and a steady, sibilant rush of hi-hats.

big with: dubfire, chris lake, john digweed, nic fianculli,.. 8 sided dice recordings is the record label of uk producer and dj alan fitzpatrick. hailing from the techhouse heartland that is southampton, alan stands shoulder to shoulder with fellow local boys james zabiela, dave robertson, james talk and tom budden as one of the producers at the vanguard of uk underground house and techno. locked and loaded for launch with two primetime dance floor bombs strapped to its under carriage, 8 sided dice will make a real impact with fans of deep, driving, melodic techno

italian based eclipsemusics second outing comes with a serious release courtesy of passenger, young and talented producer of night drive music and paul macs sula muse fame. this two tracks 12inch confirms his interest in the deepest and more underground side of detroit techno. on side a >the fall< reveals the smoother side of this upcoming producer: a deep melodic techno builder, with emphasis on atmospheric strings and arpd melodies, developing on a funked up techno drum section. the flipside brings you the burner of the 12inch: >the funk< is an a epic, slow-growing and booty-shaking techno track with all the elements in its right place: a killer bassline over an effective drum work takes the flight with the building strings. namedropping would be useless in this case, just check with your ears

two great edits produced by rotterdams loud-e (who previously did an amazing edit release on magick edits & bear funk). this disco connaisseur is sharing some of his sickest and hottest edits, made out of several tracks which once were available as b-side, as obscure library album or just in very limited quantities. he is one of those young guys influenced by the scene around clone and cbs and dj’s such as i-f & baldelli. but now its his time to shine with some amazing edit work! hey mr dj!!! this song is just for you!

after his last years hit fruchtalarm/city rush boogie dub on farside records, its time for another herb lf solo joint. sunliner takes you on a trip and has a deep melancholic mood with a perfect catchy piano hook. when the reese bassline drops, sunliner takes one step further and creates big dancefloor pressure. expect a very special moment when you play out this wonderful piece of music in the club. dub is the word in down to the sound?. some cheeba cheeba business, a smokers riddim, delayed stabs and a killer bassline is enough for this dubby deep tune. ring the alarm! one of the most groovin 4 to the floor trax that has seen the light recently is named shake!. with a few dubby dancehall snippets and a slightly metallic sounding synth, herb lf adds live percussions from tim friesenhagen. even the sound of a lighter (!!) is used as a rhythmic element. get your groove on this perfect percussive atmospheric tool. shake it, baby!

2008 is going to be the year that joker blows up. hes already been causing a stir with releases such as the recent anthem gully brook lane on soul jazz & last years sell out stuck in the system on earwax as well as remixes for smd i believe & roni size dont hold back (...that frankly, make the originals look weak!). its high time now for joker to unleash his finest works yet on his own brand new bristol based imprint kapsize. kapsize 001 launches with a double aside - both tracks showcase jokers insanely genius production style, a kind of melting pot of influences that take the best elements of neptunes, dirty south & west coast hip hop instrumentals - big !

a seriously heavyweight plate from twisted, a member of germanys acclaimed dutty dubz crew. erratic is a grimey monster of a tune, the subtleties of the intro with its pattering bongos and stealthy pads giving no indication of the carnage to come. dropping harder than a ton of bricks, the filthy buzzsaw bass comes swooping in beneath slamming halfstep beats, squirming between the enormous bashy snares and sinister electro riff topline. on the flipside twisted goes a little more leftfield, tapping into the chiptune flavour thats currently permeating the dubstep scene via the likes of rustie and zomby.

rong music introduces a fresh new artists to the label - mr. chin. originally from new york, now based in sunny southern california, chin is a world renowned disco dealer to many a high end disc jockey. from heavy hitting disco breaks to body and soul type music, his first outing has a little something for everyone in the shop. this release contains a cheeky jungle brothers sample. this a very limited release, so pick it up quick before its gone!

brilliant tracks again from lovebirds and winding road records. in the shadows is a pumping techno-house track with explosive vocals - and possibly one of winding roads best moments to date. it has all the right ingredients to be the tune of summer 2008, but theres no doubt its still cool enough for the discerning dj to play over and over again. this is going to be the >track of the night< in hundreds of dj sets over the next few months! theres also an instrumental included, under the name avlium. here, the vocals are stripped away to leave a slice of robot disco which is absolutely essential for the darker club djs. this track has been getting massive international dj support. the final track on the package is sarice, which injects a scintillating dose of growling underground darkness. winding road do the business again

its made to play so take it to the club, wind it up and and get your cheap thrills. jesse rose and herve combine forces for the first time on made to play with two whacked out club smashes. supported by marc romboy, deepchild, djulz, lee mortimer, riva starr

daniel mehlhart steps up to the plate for kindischs seventeenth release, origami - an exquisitely deep, languid house jam laced with strung-out, processed spanish guitar and gently euphoric xylophone arpeggios. >origami< is languid, yes, but not exactly laid-back: its held up and propelled forward by a gently vibrating lattice of kickdrum and snare hits, through which a dubby, molten bassline and taut, time-keeping chords dreamily but determinedly flow. the perfect soundtrack to the mixed pace of summers long days and even longer nights. mehlhart harks back to his acclaimed past releases on karmarouge and neutonmusic for >alles klar alles easy<, which sees brushed drum and shaker sounds edited into a quietly explosive techno work-out with serious swing. >fata morgana< begins in a more linear, four-to-the-floor style, but those percussive flourishes quickly accrue into something more strange, and then out of the ether comes an entrancing, south american-style chorus line. the voices mingle imperceptibly with woodblock strikes and caustic snares, injecting the techno dna >fata morgana< with a sick and psychedelic voodoo funk. with this 12inch kindisch once again proves itself to be a preeminent stable for experimental, expressive dancefloor music, and daniel mehlhart affirms his status as one of our most daring and capable producers

after the extremely successful filmmusik ep on rompecabeza, holgi star is back with >not for me<. the ep consists of two tracks with technoid crossover potential! on >not for me< bits of african vocals meet functional techno and seamlessly weave together into a quite sexy and rather danceable number. all the while >dont feel it< coolly, calmly, and with just enough repetition, establishes its class and style without unneeded flourishes. both tracks were extensively tested by the rompe crew at sonar 2008 in barcelona, and reactions spoke of the potential both of the artist and the ep itself!!!
