geno is happy to welcome alland byallo into our family. alland has been gaining strong momentum by already releasing for several labels including poker flat, liebe*detail, and missive. alland is also know for his monthly, techno focused nightclub event kontrol based in san fransisco. alland has also played several international events such as detroits demf movement festival, tokyos la fabrique, brazils d-edge, munichs harry klein, and berlins panoramabar, watergate, bar 25, cookies, and tresor.the >turn you up< ep is a truly versatile ep. the title song, >turn you up<, is a future classic in the making. modern organic percussion, trippy pulsating pads, and subtle organs grow into a sampledelic house gem. the flip side, >blessing box<, is a deeper tech house exploration. atmospheric tones and cathedral reverbs moan and wash your ears into submission. just let go.

the boss is back on cabin fever with two slices of deep pan house music! ring play is just straight up windy city dub house madness and freeze me is a sweaty mess found found lurking in the sounds factory speakers.

just over a year ago, in july 2011, harmless records released their first installment in their new mixology series, releasing mixology-the definitive salsoul mixes. this triple album featured thirty-one tracks from discos premier label, salsoul. now the mixology series will return on 20th august 2012, with harmless records turning their attention to another of disco’s most important labels sam records.

in just under a year in the making, were extremely proud to bring you our second installment of the brood remixes. as we did in the first release, weve put together a special breed of underground talent to remix our artist, yan cook. fantastic and forward thinking artists such as xhin, su..

putting your money where your mouth is can sometimes be rare in techno these says, but gynoid audio has done just that in the form of its limited series. choosing some choice cuts of its recent history, the label gives us gynoid limited 001 by way of unbalaces airport and a remix by..

record dealer, dj and fountain of musical knowledge - mark seven returns with the eagerly awaited follow up to last years sellout smash >working girl<! parkway is a new label mark has set up to reflect the freedom and energy of the 80s dancefloor, albeit rewired with super 21st century sonics >midnite special< picks up where the first release left off. shot through with shimmering synths, booming bass lines, soaring vocal samples and super crisp rhythm programming, with that unmistakable paul simpson / boyd jarvis nyc proto house vibe. it is a beautifully uplifting selection of dubs, that are much more than the sum of their parts - dancefloor dynamite and we just cant get enough of it!

alps! they need somebody. alps! not just anybody.
aiming for the toppermost of the poppermost, sic and the gang wave their mangled wand — and lo! the hits just keep on a-comin. self-titled just its just their selves. this could be the album of the year — doesnt matter what year you are reading this either. sic alppeal is eternal.

usually, the purpose of a piece like this is to tell other writers, music mag editors, distribution people and record shop clerks why they should like a certain release and buy, hype, review it. often these encomiums are not really honest and sometimes you even feel like attending an attempt to sell a flat tire. as for i:cubes new longplayer m megamix things are – of course! – very different. being its fifth solo album, an introduction of a man like nicolas chaix or even his biography (another popular brick of sales sheets) seems rather unsuitable. if you dont know what you should know, just use your internet search engine with any of these terms: chateau flight, versatile records, french touch, disco cubizm or parisian prodigy.

we keep the good-times rolling along on the kolour mothership with the debut ep of deep-disco don debonair. we have been taking notes on this guy since we heard his first tune and ever-since, he just seems to move from strength to strength with each tune that is released. needless to say, when the opportunity arose for us to debut his first full-on solo ep, it was the epitome of a no-brainer for us. debonair shows us all facets of his musical capability with a melting pot of music ranging from the traditional debonair deep-disco sound to slo-mo beat-down business, deep-fused funk, with a dash of beautiful baleric sprinkles for good measure.

a label that prides itself on picking up new talent and letting them shine, electronique digital has made quite a name for itself in a short space of time. the manchester-based label has already been home to one of the years big anthems with finnebassens huge >if you only knew<. but it is not just about anthems and big tunes, there is also a focus on the deeper end of house music whilst retaining labels commitment to disco and summer vibes in every release. in other words, though they specialise in deep house, but it is never too serious or morose.
early dj support from: maceo plex, noir, andre crom, waifs & strays, wildkats, the mekansim, tom budden, giom, seth troxler, maxxi soundsystem, flashmob, miguel puente, cera alba, downtown party network, lula circus, amine edge, maher daniel, jay west & many more!

nice price deal !!! they done found the flow is the new six-track ep from norways critically revered oslo flow. the most eagerly anticipated scratch music release in years!
art is dead. music is dead. scratch music is long dead and rotting in its unmarked grave. but wait - what is this? blam and plato on magnificent stallions riding out of the norwegian dawn to save the day with they done found the flow. thank sweet odens raven we are saved! balance has been restored to the universe - oslo flow style.
they dont sound like anyone else. they work outside the boundaries of the possible. they are unique voices in what is becoming an increasingly dull conversation. and most importantly, they are funkier than an old piece of provolone in a hard working hookers panties. now play the f**king record and prepare to tremble.

a collection of songs, live recordings and demo takes by the damned from 1977 - 1982 on picture disc vinyl.

new l.i.e.s!just when we had our doubts about the west coast, los angeles via nyc producer delroy edwards steps up with his debut release for l.i.e.s. musically edwards takes his influences from that barneys ghetto sound with oversaturated 909 shuffling highs, dx bells, 101 filters and ends up making fresh, and yes, melodic ghetto style tracks that somehow get stuck in your head even without vocals. a unique take on a modern classic with the dancefloor in mind.

mammoth remix package from marcel dettmann (in low key but high impact mode!) + bubbling talent, answer code request... they just keep coming with it! tip!

the first offering on boomchik comes from n & n tracks. produced by neville watson and nigel rogers (aka perseus traxx) in an impromptu recording session lasting just one afternoon, the love of classic sounding chicago tones and feelings are immediately present. the sound is that of effect drenched raw machinary, hammering out beats and synth parts intended to transport you on the dance floor, all beaten out of the machines live to tape with neville and nigel just performing the occasional edit here and there.

of course the boys are back! dave jarvis and diesel float another two killers out there for the more discerning dancefloors.
first up is nite dance were are dynamic duo flip their wigs and slice and dice a giorgio moroder classic. dark, sleazy and downright dirty and the right amount of piano for the balearic faithful!
ce soir is a go go styled percussion funk monster with a female euro vocal that just pulls you in. from saint - tropez to the dark back streets of dalston this has classic written all over it.
this man is one of touchstones of the cosmic adriatic scene championed by the likes of italian dance legend daniele baldelli from back in the day. resurrected and flipped for a new audience. light my soul!

the new komplex de deep just arrived from the label chief himself and one of our big favs master-h. stunning again! do ur thang! ep will be released vinyl only, with 4 bomb tracks from the purest house music style to the deepest detroity techno dancefloor killer. master-h is now showing is own vision of electronic music with soul. dont miss it! reserve your copies now! already support from: josh wink, psycatron, anja schneider, mr g, satoshie tomiie, thugfucker

michael ozone, the character whos just dropped his debut offering for the esp institute this july, is back with a remixed version of his jungle-tuff >perfect systems ep<. on side a, steve summers (a name thats been up in your face over the last year, and one of the key figures in our cousins l.i.e.s. camp) has taken perfect systems for an imperfect ride, jacking it up as expected while keeping the somewhat sinister mood of the original. on the flip, young marco (who has become quite a resident at the esp institute) strips down hetrotopia to its core, letting you realize how a well-programmed track can maintain its melodic and hypnotic sense, even when all thats left is percussion.

society of silence is proud to present their very first lp! society of silence combines the forces of two great parisian artists and friends, benoît legrain or bny, and nicolas villebrun ? known as tite and for his production assistance with the electronic pop-rock group, poni hoax. signifying monkey plays around with its words just as much as its structure, while beat reading detroit takes us through a nostalgic journey into the collective subconscious of techno. the confluence of dark and euphoric energies conveyed here by s.o.s. capture the dangerous and thrill-seeking memories going to old-school raves and after-hours parties. deep and raw beginning to end..

new york dj beto cravioto teams up with whatever/whatever (aka legendary producer justin strauss and bryan mette) for this 12. an awesome club record. dont sleep! limited white label pressing of just 350

just imagine youre in..lets say ibiza..watching the sunrise over your favourite secret beach - this should probably be the soundtrack. one time pressing of 500 copies!

as re-mixers, they have already made two fine contributions to schallbox-releases, now they finally get their own track on the swiss label. 12 most definetly belongs to the smalltown collective!
the name of the track is tiefblau and it speaks for itself: you are transported by a pushing, bass-generated pressure capsule down along a hypnotic groove line and into a deep blue ocean. the smalltown collective really exploit the merits of the acoustic stage here, pulling together a compelling and diverse set of notes and tones carefully arranged to amount to a track you just cant shake.
in his interpretation, dj le roi stays true and to the deepest blue dive atmosphere of tiefblau, yet manages to make it completely his own. unmistakably tieflblau, unmistakably le roi.
the page logo belongs to berlin-based producer david keno, whos signature lies in lacing floor-oriented beats with a distinct melodic aspect. with his unique and secret recipe, keno tweaks/ treats this track as he does with so many stomping house tracks with a laid-back vibe. guaranteed to work on any dance floor in the world!

fenou no.17 is the first collaboration of powel & lake people aka lake powel. this wonderful symbiosis created two really charming tracks. with its melodious feel of late summer atmosphere these tracks exude charm to unwind and relax, just right for this time of year.

its time for the italian house hero again - nicholas! he has been all around in the past and he just cant do wrong. when it comes to proper us influenced house music, nicholas is the man. his new full release for quintessentials proves his talent again. its all there: the beats, the basslines, the pianos, the vocals! we love that! grazie nicholas!

>each and every track is selected because its worked well in my own dj sets. it seems that with each instalment we just have more to bring you.< gregor tresher

just in time the almighty stock 5 comes around in order to send out a wake up call for spring. rico casazza blesses us with his soul driver ep. the title track impresses with a badass houserhythm, adequately supported by jazzy chords that generate the space for the misty, soothed vocal in the background. -soul driver- is an afro percussion body mover, not to be missed in everydjs case. this one’s followed by -wa lking backwards-, a huge and soulful stomper, catching our spoiled ears with some elegant synth melodies and truly massive sub basses. the flip providesa wide playground for notorious emixers. first on the scene are cesare vs disorder who implanted a serious guitar lick, making their -supernatural mix- a funked out trance disco housemonster. matthew styles ennobles this flamboyant release with a rather minimalistic approach towards the original. -megamix pa rt 1- is perfectly suitable to make the crowd all yours on a sunny sunday after hour morning.

landing just a week before his new album >fading< – dfrnt is releasing an incredibly special ep – not only is it the first ever echodub vinyl release, but it will be a limited edition hand-numbered 12 inch picture-disk!
the el spirito ep is a three-track vinyl. the a side, el spirito is one of the lead tracks from the fading lp – which is set to be released a week later on 3rd september. the first b-side >work harder< combines dfrnts ear for melody and deep sounds with a techno-based 2-step shuffle. the second b-side >homeward< is a far deeper and more relaxed journey featuring the talented scottish singer joy dunlop.

after the trippy translations of the helium robot space trip called jarza, theo parrishs second and very welcomed visit to running back is all new material - almost. black mist in its extended version is just that: an extended take of the already released version on the rare-as-hens-teeth sketches pack. cut on 45, its a hard punch in the gut. techno-not-techno-house-not-house parrish power. previously unreleased and no less persuasive are pop off and wild out. while the first one centers around an endless piano and sucks you into the corny, but magic of repetition, the second one sounds like a theo parrish demo for dance mania after he came back from listening to lil louis at the bismark pavilion. mosh pit music. limited pressing in full printed sleeves.

vinyl only !! two tracks rough and beautiful. these tracks you will find just here on yellow vinyl. no digital release.

mark henning is back! back on cityfox! a classic acapella and marks distinctive sound collide, result-ing in a huge tune, sounding old school and fresh at the same time. not just the vocals are telling a story here, the synths and bassline add their part to complete the track. the second original trojan is the secret weapon and club bomb, the dark side of the release, because too much sunshine is never healthy. afrilounge take it a step deeper and its big string melody sounds as clean as and sparkles like the sunrise itself. the 1998 edit incorperates the rhythms and vibes of classic house and techno from the era when it all began. thick, groovy basslines and pulsing pads laid out over infectious percussion make this track an instant classic.

born in canada, now residing in leeds, 21 year old producer nathan micay - bwana is the latest artist to join the somethinksounds roster. with zero production experience, bwana only started making tunes at the start of 2011. fast forward 18 months and he has already signed tracks to canadian label infinite machines (over and done ep), to mad decent imprint the jeffrees (cant you just / this is real) and featured upon the playlists of tastemakers mary anne hobbs, rob da bank and rinse fms monki.

having both previously released on phuture shock musik, garage experimentalists roof light and lostlojic return to share the honours on a split single set for release on the bristol label. always one to maintain an eclectic approach in his work, surrey resident roof light returns to his forward-thinking best, offering up >pearl< - a sultry number, where jerky beats intertwine with fragmentations of female vox that saunter through swathes of synth pads, glitchy blips, and warm dubby bass. on the flip lostlojic continues the regular theme of passion in his music, bouncing back with >so much<, another r&b inflected dancefloor gem, incorporating a saccharine vocal hook over a bed of lush rhodes chords. soulful as ever, and riding a 4/4 rhythmn just beyond the familiar 140bpm region, this tune premieres a departure from the typically cold, brooding style that the ukraine based producer is known for, to something more suited for the warm summer nights.

inspired by the teachings of the earons (thats .22, .18, .33, .69 and .28 to the uninitiated, see www.earons.net for more background), a splinter group was formed earlier this year, with the express mission to bring back the message and connect it to a whole new audience. >land of hunger< is given a 2012 reconstruction from the cosmologist, a sturdy rework performed by the mysteriously concealed outfit, who identify themselves only as .40, and .44. whilst they are heavily influenced by earons beliefs on positive energy, which they seek to share, .40 + .44 are quick to point out they have no links with the earlier incarnation from 28 years ago, but felt a compelling force to unearth it once more. the universe knows when the time is right, and frankly the original broadcast was just too good to not want to fashion a 2012 edit, so a new chapter begins ...

122 bpm is the story of how a father and his son changed chicagos dance music scene in the 1980s and went on to take the world by storm, leaving an impression that will last forever with just a couple of 12 inch releases the world would soon know as house music. nemiah mitchell jr. and vince lawrence couldnt have known what their contribution to house music would become. their story provides the missing chicago link between soul, disco, new wave and then house, between the radio and club djs and their audience, between the old generation and the new generation. this is the story of the first house records ever made - long before trax or dj international were even dreamt of. the compilation includes numerous unreleased tracks and beyond hard to find house tracks made in chicago in the early to late eighties from the catalogues of mitchbal records and chicago connection records
