2009 was the year in which amir really put his name on the map. with his tunes and releases on 8bit, material limited and trapez ltd he has been climbing into nearly every top djs record case as well as constantly proving and improving his sound skills. living proof for the recognition he is receiving is his most recent signing of two tracks to the legendary nrk music label, which is to be released within the next three months.

like roy ayers about 25 years before them those two ny house cuts are paying tribute to their hometurf - the title isnt the only similarity also e mans voice - which already helped its yours to become this years house smash - bares a strong resemblance to the 70s jazz funk master. kerri chandler again proves his unchallenged production mastery with a bottom-heavy, deep house groove - big

rippertons perspectiv label with its 2nd split release giving new talents a stage. 1st split is a huge release with two sublime tracks by agnes and johnny white. not sure if this one tops it... but crowdpleaser and entlet deliver both two tracks that stand out of the pack!!. especially the b2 track by entlet needs some extra attention... a contemporary house track that has so much hidden power. phat old school bassline kills it everywhere.. and then the tracks continues to build and build.... like a modern dj pierre wildpitch affair! crowdpleaser delivers two solid tracks that went straight into the dj sets of many influential djs. highly effective and useful house tools (a description that actually doesnt do justice to these tracks which are much more then just tools!) ripperton proofs once again to have a great ear for new talents!!

the sound of the sixties and seventies has never been so sought after as at the present moment...

after their great release on below records, the jacuzzi boys bring us the next bomb on levelnonzero. the original track, called cascabela, comes along with a deep groove and an evil voice which keeps the dancefloor under pressure. but at the latest, when this crazy >cascabela sound< rises during the break, you will see the crowd freaking out. on the flip, chris wood & pascal feos sticked together and created a remix, which is deeper and more into house than the original...

perverse, sexy, groovy and let you dance for sure, after the 8bit release the new veitengruber ep is the next must have!

a fresh new collaboration with some top notch house tracks on this split release. agnes probably needs no introduction after his recent release on plak and running his own sthmllaudio, and he delivers all quality. big revelation on this 12 is jonny white with his tikkun olam... already a office favorite here at clone... we keep playing this over and over... somehow reminds of old deeper house tracks by mr fingers (athmosphere and basslines) but with modern productions skills. killer track and killer split release with some forward thinking house music thats embracing the future, without forgetting the past! recommended!

the souvenir family grows this fall with two newcomers, two new remixes and four new essential tracks. please welcome warmly the global vibes of cj jeff, m-in and the remixes of kreon and sante on souvenir021. on the a-side, souvenir celebrates the talented greek electronic scene. c.j. jeff aka nikos safiris gradually built his sound through releases on his own label rythmetic or modern love. he signs a remarkable entry on souvenir with the a-side >got 2 b<. wave your arms! take a breath! a tribe of incredible bongos players is surrounding you, when the vocals of an androgyny shaman start compelling you to a never-ending foot-stomping dance. you are right, where you want to be. damn, it s >got 2 b< a hit. kreon has been raising a fair share of interest lately with appearances on cecille numbers, resopal or robsoul. he signed a dub remix and a perfect spell to push to the party to the early sun shines of the day. back to germany on the b-side! m-in aka marcus ferdinand from frankfurt has spread his talents of producer with releases for off or get digital, and early supports from josh wink, johnny d, thomas schumacher or dj t. again we are talking about deep sensations, haunting vocals and afro rhythms. the tiefschwarz brothers have hammered >capetown river boating< on the road this summer. now its your turn to send a blessing from south africa to your crowd. studio partner of ali and basti, philip sante maier has barely released >dambalaa< last month, that he is already back in production. nobody will complain. his trademark, a clearly percussive approach and a dizzying groove particularly fitted with >capetown river boating<. 2 - 2, we gladly go overtime!

new ep from detroit techno and graphics legend alan oldham.
following up the more experimental >johnny gambit 01: the prodigal son< graphic novel/soundtrack (pure18lp), alan d. oldham a.k.a. dj t-1000 gets back to basics with the >blaster ep<, phase two of the pure sonik records restart.
>blaster< kicks off the proceedings. a dirty, tracky, and bitcrushed statement of intent, >blaster< is a 130 bpm love letter to all the hard techno fans in germany and spain who have kept the faith and supported dj t-1000s international dates all these years, and the definitive statement that pure sonik records is back!
on the b-side, oldham goes electro with >i rock shit everyday<, a dark, dirty, detroit electro-groove inspired by one of his all-time favorite detroit electro acts, ultradyne. the ep closer, the lo-fi >machines<, is the sound of your laptop, tv, and coffee maker conspiring against you in dial-up modem code. what happens when your microwave starts thinking it can cook better than you? you better watch out...

with a slew of slammin releases on all the happy fun times underground house labels, melbournes d-t3ch now comes correct with a crackin new release on the flapjack attack called the >scholars with dollars ep<. to kick things off, d-t3ch gives us a very tasty piano jam called >dusk til dawn< that pretty much rocks around the clock. also includes remixes from scrubfish & laurence alongside house phenom johnny fiasco. snls mix is a solid bassline bumper with plenty of cuts n bruises just like we do in this camp. johnnys remix is a shake n bake, plenty of bass krush groove to move ya to the egg beater bump….whatever that means. shak n bake baby! shake n bake!!!

dass tracks aus dem hause reboot in der vergangenen cocoon-saison eine herausragende rolle spielten, dürfte niemandem verborgen geblieben sein, schließlich konnte sich der 30jährige frankfurter produzent frank heinrich bereits zusammen mit johnny d. im rahmen des >disco invaders<-cocoon ibiza summer mix in einer art live-jam-session austoben. umso verblüffender, dass erst jetzt nach releases auf below und cadenza endlich die erste reboot-12 inch auf cocoon erscheint. >ronson< macht mit seinem tribalistischen einschlag schnell klar, wohin die reise geht, mit alarmsirenen und druckluftausstoß zeigt sich heinrich hier so kompromisslos energetisch wie nie und bleibt dabei maximal pumpend, aber immer sexy. etwas abwartender strukturiert, gönnt das polyrhythmisch perkussive >mirasierra< dann den erschöpften tänzerinnen und tänzern eine kleine atempause, auch wenn die kräftig dub-verzierte bassline dabei ganz schön diskoide glücksmomente setzt. für die gefühlten tropischen momente im jetzigen frühjahr sind jedenfalls beide tracks bestens geeignet!!

like each year, cocoon sets standards with a compilation of the hottest tracks in contemporary techno, haveing generated smash hits from the likes of gehts noch? or mückenschwarm with the last issues. in 2009, sven väth were able to combine established artists such as timo maas or radio slave alongside new talents from the likes of kabuto & koji and chymera. a special collection of finest music in 2009

vlad caia, a young romanian living in norway, with his wide range of influences are worn as true colours in his music. his demo was thrust into our hands by one of his fine colleagues, and now finally we can bring his debut platter for horizontal. as you will hear its a bright start for vlad at horizontal, he brings us two charming pieces of upfront house, chango with its cuban overtones and incessant groove calling all at the party. johnny frisco on the other hand has its own low deep funk flavor. both tracks nevertheless are proving to be a favourite of chefs such as tobi neumann, locodice, onur ozer, raresh, josh wink and of course dinky & matthew styles. we hope you enjoy as much as we do this summers release for horizontal!

a triumphant return from the canadian rocky mountaineer himself jon delerious, whos back in the fold with his first release in over 2 years. jons dub influenced housey bits & album for nordic trax in the past have caught the eye of deejays and tastemakers worldwide, ending up perhaps most notably as the lead track on lee burridges global underground compilation. advance deejay support for this ep has been strong with rave reviews and support from the likes of mark farina, east coast boogiemen, giom, kelvin k, c rock, ross couch and johnny fiasco who proclaimed wow. i am very impressed w jons release here - def pay attention class!!!!

massive summerhit from nick curly played by: sven väth, dubfire, matthias tanzmann, karotte, audiofly, nick fanciulli ... currently, the releases and remixes of young mannheim-born nick curly are integral parts of the scene. with his imprints cécille and 8bit records he discovered both sis and johnny d., and thus shaped the electronic music scene decisively. nick is also well-known on an international level and tours the world under the motto >series<, which is at the same time the collective name for his vinyls. sven väth is a fan of the high-flyer and invites him not only to make an ep on cocoon recordings but also for a performance at the cocoon night at super club amnesia in ibiza. the two exclusive tracks on pujante / new town stranger are showing once again nicks diversity and his intuition for groove and soul. the a side >pujante< is a strongly forward-banging piece of techno that extends over the dancefloor like a shock wave. totally different: the b side >new town stranger<. for more than 12 minutes, the listener is enchanted by this masterpiece that attracts him with its perfect groove and a fascinating voice, just like a story from another time

some would say the chicken lips label is long overdue, but lipservice is worth the wait as it promises the very best from augmented cl clan of dean meredith, andy meecham, stevie kotey and johnny spencer - a collective who have remixed just about everyone, spawned a thousand copycats and destroyed a few floors in the process. the inaugural lipservice release sees the chaps unleash zeefungk, one of their most popular and rare guises. the a-side is occupied by >robot eyes< - a splendid slice of electro-disco-funk which is vintage chicken lips. acid bass and loose drums combine with keys which progress wonderfully to create a really special piece of dancefloor tomfoolery. next up is >feast of freeks< (stevie koteys tape edit), a new edit of a track featured on the bands now-classic >extended play< album but never released as a 12inch. the bearfunk main man and all round gent delivers a tweaky, driving uptempo disco monster which climaxes in some trademark kotey madness. >robot lips< closes the packages and displays more of the guys unreal keyboard work as the groove stays steady but the hands go hyper. riddled with vintage synth work, >robot lips< is heads down business and no mistake.

royal bangs are from knoxville. that in itself is a statement: theres not much that comes from knoxville, tennessees third largest city, and even less that gets away. quentin tarantino made it out, but the last citys mayor was allegedly so desperate to escape he now works as the us ambassador in poland. cormac mccarthy moved there as a child, of course, but by the time he d written his second book he was long gone. only johnny knoxville advertises his geographical roots, and quite clearly hes a glutton for punishment. so while just one of royal bangs currently has a passport, that doesnt mean they dont know that royal bangs is their ticket out of town.

supported by: varoslav, johnny d., yakine, ray okpara, nekes, ekkohaus, federico molinari,.. fimo is mainly known as a modelling material, that you can get in different colours, to built some toy figures with. in this case the three guys from mannheim brought the project fimo alive to built >djs favourite toy<, house music! three tracks from straight minimal and tricky percussive tools to chordy deep grooves. we are sure it will makes you move.
