vulkandance started as a party for african dance music in berlin in 2010. the amazing feedback and success of the party led nomad to turn it into a series of events and into a concept (including theme based decoration and sometimes catering) that travelled and hosted some of the cream of afro and global funk/disco djs, including legends such as beppe loda.

atmosphere relaunches itself with a great new artwork and hot music too. german minimal lounge (underyourskin records, rennbahn) presents his new green lemon ep with two deep originals and a 2013 re-treatment of the wellknown sensitive congo for marc raum (040 recordings, hansehertz).

lächeln der verblüffung: der berliner elektroakustiker auf den spuren des dub.

omega male could conceivably be described as a supergroup, a transatlantic duo featuring david best of brighton minimalist kraut-funk outfit fujiya & miyagi and sammy rubin of brooklyns digital rock band project jenny, project jan. the combination is an inspired one – laptop sex music played by two white dudes.

crosstown release the triple vinyl sampler to the acclaimed get lost v album compiled and mixed by acid pauli. the album features loads of exclusives, some of which have been featured on this vinyl version of the album.

at the end of 2006, erol alkan was at a crossroads. he’d been voted dj of the year by mixmag. he’dmade landmark, expectation-defying remixes for bands he loved: a crunching “glam racket” reworking of ‘do you want to’ for franz ferdinand, a wonderfully wistful reinterpretation of hop chip’s ‘boy from school’, a psychedelic take on scissor sisters’ ‘i don’t feel like dancing’ and a genre-defining reworking of justice’s ‘waters of nazereth’.

nice price deal !!! die tracks auf der >modeselektion vol. 02< betreten dunklere, experimentellere wege, auch wenn sie immer noch mit mindestens einem auge das markenzeichen von modeselektor, den party-faktor, im blick haben. auf der zweiten modeselektion-compilation finden sich bisher unveröffentlichte tracks von u.a. monolake, prefuse 73, mouse on mars, clark, lazer sword, martyn, siriusmo, addison groove, egyptrixx, anstam, diamond version (ein neues projekt von raster notons byetone und alva noto), phon.o, bambounou und natürlich modeselektor und bringt damit einige der größten namen der elektronischen musik-szene auf einer platte zusammen.

deep house mestro nacho marco joins forces with sais and fabiani and together they are dropping a balearic house stormer (with a certain jan hammer influence). although they keep the things simple the track relentlessly grows during its whole length to full effect. ooft! is on the remix duties. he speeds up the track, so the purist can call it house without suffering, and he does a great job while doing it, taking the whole thing into deeper territories.
all that on a very limited 12 inch with screen-printed artwork and download coupon. with amazing silk screened artwork by graphic genius pepe medina. includes code for free mp3 download of this release.

hinter dem namen human dont be angry steckt mit malcolm middleton ein altbekannter schotte - ob auf solopfaden oder gemeinsam mit aidan moffat als arab strap. auf seinem gleichnamigen album finden sich neun tracks. insgesamt erwarten den hörer knappe 47 minuten pure brillianz, was sonst ist zu erwarten? ob man dabei von einem instrumental-album mit gelegentlichen vocal-tracks oder von einem vocal-album mit gelegentlichen instrumental-songs sprechen soll, bleibt jedem selbst überlassen. was wir aber mit sicherheit wissen, ist, dass malcolm selber von einer kreuzung aus jan hammer und iron maiden spricht.

never ones to stand still dons rainbow marks a quantum leap for seahawks, the first release on new label ocean moon and the first recording from the invisible sunrise sessions. invisible sunrise is the forthcoming album from seahawks and the first to be recorded with live musicians rather than a hard drive full of dusty old samples. the results are stunningly original, not least on this track with new york head autre ne veut. anvs debut album last year on olde english spelling bee was an incredible rush of warped r&b, 80s synths, amazing songs and what has to be one of the most innovative voices to emerge in the last 5 years. since then hes released a great ep on hippos in tanks, played some mind bending live shows and guested on the ford & lopatin album. dons rainbow sounds like michael mcdonalds sweet freedom crossed with nite flight era walker brothers. a fantastic piece of hazy avant pop with jan hammer pulse wave synths, yah mo b there drums and fuzz drenched spirals of soprano sax and guitar colliding with the sound of soul from outer space. on the flip the dub takes the track into a world of shadows, where smeared washes of sound swim in an ocean of decay. as always with seahawks releases the packaging is beautiful. heavyweight vinyl in a full colour sleeve, with full colour labels. the last seahawks release sold out in days, we expect this one to do the same, so get your skates on!

after firstly appearing on dials 2010 compilation, kassian troyer shows up with an adventure into wonderful sounddesigned technomusic. these four pieces of deeply grooving structures might r be influenced of early works by jan jelineks farben project, the swing of stl and the deep rooms of pole. that is no coincidence at all. kassian troyer who studied sound engineering and production has been responsible for the live mixing of stefan bethke aka pole and lots of other artists like andrew peckler and pantha du prince. while working on the mixing of efdemins chicago album he became related to dial records- his first demo tracks were an ingenious discovery for dials eccentric family.

gegründet in frankfurt/main 2007 von michael lasch und jan wilk (huen) konzentriert sich das label hauptbahnhof-musik auf die ausarbeitung von funktionalem doch gleichzeitig vorwärtsgedachtem techno für den club. der rote faden bleibt der sub-bass. nachdem sich die crew hauptbahnhof-musik nun auf 5 produzenten bzw. 6 djs und liveacts vergrößert hat und sich durch partys in frankfurt und berlin einen speziellen ruf geschaffen hat, folgt nun die erste veröffentlichung auf vinyl - produziert von michael lasch & huen, inklusive remixen von octave, monocraft und brian burger.

?action, bitch!? ist ein electro-house-rave-break-kracher erster klasse, energie geladen und mit viel druck nach vorn! eben ganz so, wie man es von den beiden frühstücksclubbern gewohnt ist. boysnoize hero und altmeister jan driver spendiert neben seinem remix auch gleich noch das mastering mit dem nötigen druck für das ungarische duo slap in the bass, sowie den niederländer jeff doubleu.

following romantic thrills part 1, the first ep connected to nicone & sascha braemers recent lp of the same name, vinyl lovers are now being treated to romantic thrills part 2, which dazzles with three distinct remixes by stil for talent heavyweights oliver koletzki, florian meindl and dan caster. again, all tracks are geared towards the dance floor as they appropriate those special moments of the originals, while employing them to a diverse range of new contextual frames.

in 1973 focus were at their peak! they simultaneously had two top 10 albums (focus 3 (movlp022) and moving waves (movlp023)) and two hitsingles (sylvia & hocus pocus). all of the musicians were voted as top 10 musicians in each of their categories. jan akkerman was voted worlds best guitarist. with a live reputation that proved focus lived up to these best musicians claims, the right thing to do was to release a live album: focus at the rainbow. (fact: on the night of the recording, due to the demand for encores, focus ran out of pieces to play!)
180 grams audiophile vinyl pressing with insert.

incarnations strike again with a fine batch of reworks of tracks off of the mesmerising >with all due respect< album. for starters, lexx turns love ballad >let love find you< into a haunting balearic jan hammered beauty, keeping bing ji lings vocals and adding some nyabinghi drumming and spectral synths. space ranger then take the uplifting >hindi ko alam< to jacking disco territory while sprinkling their cosmic dust all over it, and kare frisvold & rune lindbaek manage to transform the contemplative >sunset on punta paloma< into a psychedelic dancefloor affair.

brandt brauer frick haben wieder zugeschlagen. im vergangenen jahr debütierte das deutsche trio mit dem album >you make me real<, einer fusion aus techno und klassik. doch tracks wie >bop<, ein reichhaltiges, polyrhythmisches gebilde, zeigen, dass es geht. nun haben daniel brandt, jan brauer und paul frick ihr genre-bildendes experiment mit ihrem ensemble auf ein neues level gehoben: die computer haben sie eingetauscht gegen eine zehnköpfige band, mit der sie handgemachte dance-grooves live spielen können. wie das klingt, haben sie in diesem jahr bereits bei der eurosonic conference in holland gezeigt, dann in coachella, beim festival glastonbury, sonar, north sea jazz und bestival! der neue, handgemachte klang wurde nun auf einem brandneuen album festgehalten.

its a love story: stil vor talent have long been mad about niconé and sascha braemer so that the recent past has seen some very memorable releases by the two producers. now its about time they join forces to release a whole album together, of which the first set of two vinyl packages is taken. known for their often very musical techno and house productions, >romantic thrills part 1< encapsulates this style while adding an extra element of sex and pop appeal, without straying too far from the dancefloor. >pianotic<, >runaway< and >caje< are three prime examples of how to incorporate piano, trumpet or guitar melodies organically into electronic music without sounding artificial

die zweite 12inch-single von farben präsentiert vier tracks. während >eroten reiten auf einen delphin< auf einem zuvor unveröffentlichten thema von ursula bogner beruht, belegen die übrigen drei titel die spontaneität und simplizität von jan jelineks farben-aufnahmen im jahr 2011. dabei wird der frühere farben-wunsch, die sinnlichkeit eines burt-bacharach-songs auf clubmusik zu übertragen, wieder aufgenommen. der in berlin lebende elektronikproduzent veröffentlicht seit 1998 u. a. unter dem pseudonym farben.

mother focus is their 1975 studio album which marks a departure from the progressive rock style that dominated the band s prior work, to a poppier, often disco influenced direction. it is focus last studio album that features the notorious jan akkerman on guitar.

when some collaborations occur, it feels like fate has been paying close attention, planning something special. on one hand: bugge wesseltoft, pianist, composer and pioneer of electronic jazz, on the other: henrik schwarz, one of the most sought after producers of electronic music who has remixed stars from michael jackson to ane brun. this combination may not seem as radical as once it might, as in the days before bugges new conception of jazz, but the results most certainly are: this does not feel like your typical electronic jazz outing. its a super-group in microcosm. wesseltoft comes from a jazz background and has moved towards electronic music. he started on the ecm label with jan garbarek, and later collaborated with club music legends like laurent garnier and francois kervorkian on stage. schwarz comes from the chicago/ detroit techno culture, and performs at music festivals and in clubs on all continents. he has been moving towards the jazz and improvisation

esa & mervin granger returns jan 2011 with the second installment of his rememory music label project. >luxarama< is a stunning two track ep featuring an original track of the same name by esa & mervin granger, along with an edit by ali ooft and subcultures ross telford on the flipside as the midnight marauders.
esas rememory music project began earlier this year as the south african ex-pats main creative output, dedicated to his late father. the critically acclaimed debut vinyl >i stole some thunder< sold out quickly, making >luxarama< an eagerly anticipated release.

after almost a year of only dancfloor related releases dial is back with an outstandingly special record: dirk von lowtzow presents his guitar solo work >tod in theben<. dirk von lowtzow, also known as a member of phantom ghost and tocotronic, creates a slowmotion drone-a-like folk meditation. the result is a breathtaking piece of deepest devotion, an incredible sound and room composition. at last years salzburger festspiele von lowtzow performed >tod in theben< in jan fosses same named theatre piece directed by angela richter.

so what is the sound of progressive disco? well it captures the insane rhythm and the unforgiving driving beat that is instantly found in the funk of the early seventies but real disco music also had a formula that would guarantee the hottest djs success if played at the right time. that formula was a blend of up-tempo rhythm sections laden with south american percussion mixed with soulful vocals and orchestral strings - a symphony of sex, lust and love. we change the formula and focus on the rock, electronic and dub elements - slower, sleazy and fun.

boys noize has compiled 12 modern acid jams done by bnr artists and homies like feadz, joakim & krikor and brodinski tributing 20 years of acid....

nice price deal !!! no doubt looking for somewhere with a bit of political stability and a brighter economic future, 24 year old polish producer jan dudzik aka sekta recently joined many of his compatriots by leaving london and farking off back to his native warsaw. luckily, he left us a bottle of the finest vodka to remember him by, and a four track ep of stepping rhythms, fat bass and dubby atmospherics to help wash it down.

das rastlose berlin ist die kulisse von >zum glück in die zukunft<. der rapper, texter und songwriter marteria hat zwölf einzigartige songs erschaffen, die ein echtes, authentisches lebensgefühl zwischen neuköllner kiezkindern, jungen müttern vom prenzlauer berg und friedrichshainer lebenskünstlern auf den punkt formulieren. gleichzeitig funktionieren diese songs genau so gut in eberswalde oder villingen-schwenningen. laut marterias freund und mentor jan delay handelt es sich bei >zum glück in die zukunft< um das beste deutschsprachige hip hop-album, das in den letzten jahren erschienen ist.

nice price deal !!! dispatch recordings are proud to present >transit one album sampler< the first various artist album from dispatch will be released in jan 2011. the album showcases a close group of artists, some new to the label some well known for their releases already, the likes of survival get the remix treatment from the mighty break, ever-rising label boys octane and dlr feature with another couple of complete blinders, one of which written with labal manager ant tc1 and not to mention artists such as spinline, hydro, skeptical, paul t, ebk, subterra, christina nicola, gusto, keza and mc fokus all provide a mixed set of styles sure to hit the standard the label is well known for with any listener. dj support is already exhaustive with the likes of marcus intalex, calibre, andy c, break, d-bridge, cern, teebee, calyx, bailey, flight, kasra, ai, lenzman, icicle, alix perez, jubei, spectrasoul to name a few.

its been 18 months since our first nang release, d-pulses >more<. nestled on that release was an extra ep track called >highway to saturn<. much to our delight it turned out to be a bit of a gem. when it featured on the tirk 02 and kitsune ponystep / jerry bouthier compilations we knew we were all onto something. (cue the overdrive and the interstellar vocal.) slovenian-based, us singer, hannah mancini, provides those cosmic vocals, ably recorded by sare havlicek in sunny ljubljan. after a sly re-titling of the track (to avoid confusion with the original the name has been extended to >on a highway to saturn<) its on to the obligatory over-the-top nang remix package...first up is a new version from d-pulse for those long summer nights. their >australian shore reversion< mix slows down the groove to a balmy evening by noosa shores pace. space-rock, guitar solos, smouldering synths and lazy rhythms all combine to make this one for the beach house. sare havlicek adds a couple of mixes of his own. keeping things hi-energy he goes for the disco jugular with his trademark stabby synths and tight production. nang newcomers, proper heat, strip things back and go for a slow-grooving baltic-disco chugger. rounding off the remix package is japanese based jan ken po (aka max essa). he delivers a dance floor friendly version with a big and bold walking bass riff and tasteful synths

here we are with the new single >kontact me< taken from boys noizes >power< lp.

von spar is an artist collective from germany consisting of sebastian blume, jan philipp janzen, phillip tielsch and christopher marquez. the cologne-berlin quartet serves up a veritable ear-worm as an amuse bouche prior to their third album >foreigner<, which will be released at the end of may 2010 on italic recordings. the four deliver a rousing anthem enriched with a krauty disco groove and soulful close-harmony vocals for all of those late-night culture-vultures, oddballs and mother-in-laws nightmares propping up the bars at the discotheques of this world.

symp.tom welcomes another new name on the imprint, this time its nobody other than sei2ure who strengthen our ranks!
known for his very raw distortion-packed style, sei2ure aka jan kamphuis already gained a lot of fame with his smashing tracks at enzyme records (pneumatic transmission, zinc, armorgeddon and rocket fuel to only name a handful). we always felt that sei2ure would suit perfectly on the symp.tom label and therefore we are very happy to have him unleash his newest ep >noise pollution<!
