excellent journey trough three sweet emotional minimal tracks !! release date : 20.03.2006

iken returns with his second release - another atmospheric house-influenced journey..this new ep features 3 tracks… the distorted dirty disco workout of the title track aspects, the shimmering filtered funk of in touch, and the mysterious pulsing drone and eno-like moog shapes of december spring.. the first pressing of aspects also includes the bonus 7 single minds eye / close range (real soon, rs-008)!!

big city music has this very special hip-shaking beat construct. the track just starts with one hihat, one short shaker, dry claps paired with two simple lead sounds. one of them repeating itself until the end and one to be morphed up and down, increasing and decreasing all the time. an exciting journey through changing tone lengths and different faces of at least one melody. on the flip side you find >asanebo<, another unique smasher. again this funky groove, but the sound surrounding comes a bit more spheric and mystic. an excellent track to loose yourself on the floor

we are proud to present robert babicz and martinez as our first release on barbarella music. robert babicz takes us into a spheric drivin journey with his >my blue car<. after he starts the engine he s driveing up with smooth minimal & spheric sounding beats. during the hypnotic drive the enegetic sounds build up in the backdrop and blow up and arouse fanaticism. martinez let us flow in a deep and minimal state of mind. the engine working with dark pumping sounds and going constant till it s coming to improve the efficiency in fuller speed. this is of course a release package to match in all the djs cases

interesting intro on this huge bit of bassline madness from d ranged with the scary vibes of the reece full a love song flip for claires journey a deeper expedition into the hard breaks sound (sb)

todd terje's night version is a gentle, yet demanding rework of the original. terje is locally known as quite the wunderkind, and brings a touch of elegance to everything he does. he's currently wrapping up his major in astro-physics, no joke. - the original is a pumping, neccesary song about the greatness of wolves, sounds a bit like early madonna, or so we've been told. - prins thomas' remix of the psych-funk track 'chin up!' is a long, mystical journey.

the a side is an epic hard techno journey with its long snarling intro before dropping into a sledgehammer like driving track before breaking again into what can only be described as a riff straight from hell. if you have enough energy left turn to the flip where you have a very clinical deeper, groovier cut with swirling synths and lots of atmosphere. its not that often that a super fresh piece of techno like this comes along so dont miss out. massive support from adam beyer, chris liebing and christian smith

samim (here without his partner michael) opens up the race with a straight-to-the-top rocket, with his deep journey to ecstasy giving birth to a totally spaced out and hypnotic remix, cool as fuck, while format b do their typical techhouse madness, combining technoverdose with fat 2 step basslines and more. hail to mr oizo! todd bodine, on the other hand, gives us a beautiful and subtile minimal monster a la dan bell,so enjoy and please: stay high!
