a new drift is emerging from america and she s in the middle of it: kate iwanowicz aka miskate is not only co-founder of the highly respected foundsound-label from philadelphia, but also a high-definition producer in its own right. after several ep s on her s and others labels like microcosm records she now pays a visit to karloff to expand her boundaries and fuelling the eclectic cut-up-funk she s already known for with solid, defined beats, boosting the focus on the dancefloor as another target to be aimed at. however the steady drive obtains the required substance through interspersed well-crafted distractions like filleted choirs and hymnal strings, constantly winding through the structure and blazing it up. brilliantly reflective and ecstatic at the same time this record gives you more than just a seasonal tempest in a teapot

christopher just looks back over his shoulder at the time when a bass used to be called a murderbass, bleeps were meeting clonks and techno was feeding the illusion of the everlasting party. dry beats, being swinged and pushed up cascade-like over the holy disco bass again and again, heralding - by sawtooth and an apocalyptic peal of bells - the ultimate party happiness. dj glow known from his always cool trust imprint delivers a great futuristic robot electro remix from outer space. crazy funky

dave taylor and jesse rose have been working together as induceve for about 6 years now. this is their second release on dubsided and as the title track >warehouse shit< has been knocking about for a minute, its good to see the vinyl is out now. a1 warehouse shit – so there s going to be comparisons with >higher state of consciousness< but what the hell, it smashes the floor every time its played. its squelchy, bumpy, and all pinned down by a simple but effective groove. b1 stay cool - proper underground mischief. bumps along nicely. as the title suggests this track stays cool, doesn t get too hectic - just a bass line, relevant hooks and automated lead synth line. b2 why burn - cool, heavier and altogether less deliberate. the deeper side of induceve with a definite chicago, sneak-type feel

modernist ep #1 shows just why woolford is currently being hailed as the best producer in his genre right now from the likes of pete tong, francois kevorkian, mr c et al. woolfords current >erotic discourse< is being hailed as one of those tracks that has captured the imagination of both house and techno djs alike. .and so onto modernist #1, and whilst woolford nods to the past on title track 313, the arrangement and structure of the infectious cut is as modern as electronic dance gets right now. on part one, warm and lush pads herald an epic 11 minute production that twists and turns, all the while keeping the solid groove flowing. part two on the flip presents a rawer and heavier take, the driving cowbell rhythm, snaking synth line and sub bass will cause much devastation

just a classic

ellen allien and apparat, two headstrong musicians who indeed differ in their musical context but still come together not just at the peripheral rims, collaborated on an album together: >orchestra of bubbles<.by a deep plunge into the world of sound of their counterpart both are trying to find gateways in order to expand their own possibilities. while apparat used to stand for an algorithms-based aesthetics and ellen allien fathomed the possible heights and depths of the dance floor widthways as well, for their joint production they dabble in a principle which electronic music is dedicated to from the very beginning and which is now only spelled differently: contingency

no doubt about it you about to get jacked picking up where they left off the scandal is still in the papers as things have just gotten dirtier creep delivers a nastier vibe than last time with gritty bass and squelching melodies the drums are hard as nails and a few gun shots get thrown in for good measure keepin it creepin for the ghetto

the original of special powers is a throbbing beast of a track that s just crying out to be played on a big room soundsystem where itll wreak complete havoc! twisted, psychedelic s**t from outer space is one way to describe it! shur-i-kan calms things down a bit for his latin workout mix, but only a bit! tight brazilian beats keep things grooving while the layers of tripped out keys and fx swirl around on this alternate version. finally we see milton jackson revisit i want it so he can turn it upside down and inside out creating a darker, more tribal version for the headz. all in all another fine collection of underground goodness that we re sure youll get plenty of use out o
