its been almost a year since the release of efdemins fantastic two-tracker >america/the pulse<. >america<, that was also used on his curle mix-cd >carry on...<, became quite a big tune and even ended up on the number one spot in groove magazines chart. therefor efdemin preferred that no-one touched that track anymore, and we decided to give >the pulse< a remix treatment. john beltran is a highly respected artist that has been around since the early nineties - r&s! peacefrog! styrax! - and when we heard the ultra-funky mega-bomb he made from >the pulse<, we knew we made the right decision to ask him. another one of our long time favourites from accross the ocean is convextion aka e.r.p. he did some ground-breaking stuff on matrix, down low and frantic flowers. we asked him to do a remix of crcs amazing take on detroit techno, >vaskitsaherra<, originally on curle 009. the result ended up being nothing else than a timeless piece of art. this record comes as a beautifully marbled coloured vinyl, limited to 500 pieces.

supported by: richi hawtin, hot chip, john digweed, nik fanciull, tono rios, okain... their new ep >shipyard< is piemont at their best... we would not have it another way... magnetic beat-bassline monsters, funky and rigid at the same time. you might call it germanic and it reminds us of dadaism in the 20ies ingermany with it s theme: non-sense makes more sense? the a-side track >shipyard< has all of this, a fusion of old school with blowing horns and massive hi-tech technology. well we know the release is about hamburg harbour...but what the f..ck does it matter. the b1-track >cargo< is as heavy and bulky as you can imagine a track to be with this name... but if you know piemont, you know they make even heavy tracks funky. the b2-track >dockyard< isthe deepest track on the 12 inch and shows that piemont will continue their liking for deeper music which they revealed for the fist time on their recent album >strange world beyond< on mbf.

bottin, aka william bottin makes music only an italian can make... probably. take a youth spent against a background of old italian giallo soundtracks, some john carpenter film music, add in late 70s italo disco influences, add a touch of free, some easy west coast vibe and a smattering of kitsch. that just about half describes bottin.

andres is releasing an ep on kalk pets featuring three different versions of his track >ballad<. now if you re associating melancholy and a thousand tears with that title, you ll be taught better by the track itself. for this particular ballad is full of positive energies and sings anything but the blues.
uwe senor coconut schmidt aka atom polishes the >ballad<-track with additional beats and insightful words and turns it into a real disco-pop wingding: >this song is not about sex / it s about music / because music is better than pussy.< the minds are shaking. he has proved his sense for slant humour already before on his album >liedgut<.
another potential hit is the remix by john keys & los updates. >los updates< being jorge gonzales, who has contributed the vocals. having played in a popular band called >los prisoneros<, he is a celebrated popstar in south america, and, amongst other things, has been participating as a singer in the last album by >sieg über die sonne<. a finely lascivious party-mix. john keys aka dandy jack & andres garcia are responsible for the musical part. file under powerpop and emotronic.
playful sounds keeping the stroke of a ping-pong game and sure to keep your body high-spirited.

altair nouveau is among the spaciest of dfaÆs recent signings, a producer clearly as in love with the soundtracks of john carpenter as he is with italo covers of classic rock tunes. >space fortress< saves its best for the final two minutes with a synthesized trumpet lead thatÆll have you either pumping your fist or reaching for the off switch. >showdown<, meanwhile, more adequately gets at mitchellÆs soundtrack love, with its pleasantly percolating backing track giving a chance to various sounds to prove their worth. >sorcerer< embraces the hints of flourish that mitchell dropped in spots elsewhere, and goes full-on with the funk. itÆs tough, well-produced and a little bit funny to listen to in the privacy of your own homeùjust like the 80s soundtrack music that it so readily recalls.

altair nouveau consists of one brandon mitchell, a young producer from the west coast currently residing in san francisco. altair nouveaus music, though designed with the dance floor in mind, still evokes a personal element. it is the combination of these elements that give altair nouveau his indistinguishable larger than life, spaced-out future disco sound sure to cause a dance floor frenzy. raised in the sprawling city of san jose, california to musical parents. mitchell grew up with the encouragement of his father, an electronic music teacher at the local community college. brandon began educating himself by collecting albums from the likes of giorgio moroder, vangelis, ennio morricone and john carpenter. this gave way to newer acts such as in flagranti, prins thomas, lindstrom and several artists on dfa. the title track æspace fortress marks a bold and exciting introduction into the sonic landscape of mr. nouveau, combining g funk, p funk and a 4/4 disco foundation that adds up to something otherworldly altogether. released as a joint effort with the uber-hip dfa records this 12 features mixes exclusive to this release from ultra-talented irishman john daly who turns out a deeper take while michel morins criminally underrated nom-de-plume sneak-thief takes it deeper into spacey disco-funk territory.

this seems to be style of eye summer hit for this season. already strong plays from sebastien leger, marco carola, super flu, butch, ida engeberg and john dahlbõck, mason, david guetta & john aquaviva

moony (real name monica bragato) is a musician from venice italy moony was first noticed singing in the venetian club scene and was asked to provide vocals for a number of songs by dj and producer cristiano spiller. the first single was positive, in 1998, sampled from the physical, song of olivia newton-john, and the second single with spiller was batucada (1999). her first collaboration was point of view as part of the group db boulevard. that song became popular across the european dance music scene and earned db boulevard the distinction of being the first italian music group to be nominated in the mtv europe music awards. remixes come from germanys uber producer / remixer jerome disma ae who takes it deep & electronic àalready stirring a storm in ibiza and all over the rest of europe, i dont know why is surely hks clubbiest monster so far in 2009! huge!

sam ball returns with the tenth release on his ever-successful i-fi music with 2 slices of tech house and techno to suit the heads. with consistent support from carl cox, laurent garnier, joris voorn, john digweed, nic fanciulli and paul woolford, sam has proved consistency and an ear to make the dance floor quake. this next instalment compliments the floor with kamikaze aimed directly for the big rooms and floors, a definitive peak record with a building loop reaching a devastating crescendo. the flipside mad dash is a much more tech house affair which grooves from start to finish and is a definite outdoor summer record. both are destined to move all floors nodding heavily at the underground, and as sam has proved as an accomplished producer and dj that there is defiantly groove left in the music.

juicy whitelabel, supported by the elites of house: jeroenski, chuckie, disfunktion, gabriel & castellon, danila, erick e & roog ...

this is the first in a series of three various artist 12 inch releases, that features four of the dublin labels most trusted henchmen. puresthatreds >robbery< is his debut track on mantrap and what an awesome one it is: dark imposing bass and beats meet the sound of smashing glass, rave led keys and all round mayhem, with haunting strings that send this one into deepest hell. meeting him there is magnetize, who in one take supplied this evil vox led synth grinder in >distant observer< , with deft 808s and distorted crackling fx creating both a scary but grooving feel. rory st john pushes wobbly techno eccentricity on >dysentry<, with fluid editing and supreme use of effects proving again why he is one of the most exciting new talents around. sunil sharpes >print more money and shut up!< is a slippery mover, where a succession of unruly lead sounds accompany odd vocals and rasping hats - with a straightforward approach that will penetrate all in its way. so, four top class techno cuts here, all with their own unique character and all for peak time play.

this will be a big one in both techno and disco circles... do not sleep!
subdance is proud to announce their debut ep by the italian techno music legend lory d! last year we already heard some brand new things from lory, when, after 6 years without any new releases, he published two new twelve inches on the scottish label wireblock. æplisskenÆ on subdance is another stroke of genius from the roman as he comes up with two more classic examples of his unmistakable trademark sound, sombre and enigmatic, disturbing and fascinating, euphoric and energetic, powerful and direct! the a sideÆs æbank robberyÆ is a fresh interpretation of the track of the same name from john carpenter s æescape from new yorkÆ soundtrack. lory musically transports carpenterÆs apocalyptic visions of the last days into the new millennium. the brooding bass line and haunting atmospheres push the listener to an otherworldly dimension. this is loryÆs own masterpieceà lory d in technicolor and cinemascope! the b sideÆs ædisso bassÆ aims for the dance floors immediately. a perfect techno-electro track where exploding synthesizer cascades meet fragile melodies and archetypal lory d bass lines, each with a mind of their own. redshape, another techno music legend, is responsible for the mastering of both tracks. amazing stuff!

te amo is a forgotten gem originally released on the volumex label back in 1993 and then licensed to the legendary vc records in the u.k. with mixes from john digweed. this was a huge anthem back in the early 90s full of balearic passion and happiness which is often missing in todayÆs music. but lets not get carried away in the memories of the past and check out these brand new mixes. in fact, the record makes a fine return to todays scene thanks to brilliant interpretations from two of our favourite djs/producers out there: hotly tipped paolo mojo and tapesh.to round off one pretty nifty package, the original caliente mix is enclosed also. and this still sounds as relevant today as it did almost two decades ago. a blast from the past indeed! very similar to releases on record labels like cr2, defected and toolroom.
