die fromme geduld hat sich gelohnt - das >gute leben< ist jetzt. auch wenn die im juli erschienene >waiting for the good life< dank gewohnter qualitaet und einem exorbitanten gastkatalog, die dürreperiode ausgesprochen vergnueglich in kurzweilige vergessenheit geraten ließ, hat die neugierde auf den dritten full lenght player des domstadt produzenten-doppels jr & ph7 damit nur noch mehr floriert!

unlucky for some but not it seems you or us, dot013 comes comprised of a hat trick of deep and sultry, some would say rnb flavoured slow jams, made for those sexier evenings when you feel the urge to want to nod your head, wine your body and give those hips something of a work out as opposed to just pointing haphazardly to the sky whilst hopping between legs and occasionally pulling your best ooooh listen to that bass line face. though those evenings clearly have their place as well.

pilot, guitarist, dj, producer, autodidact, comedian are just a few words to describe the workaholic and house-fetishist dayne s. he is ranked as one of the upcoming deep house talents for sure ... in 2012, he grew up quickly and released tracks on labels like noir music, suara, witty tunes, microzoo and kittball. his affinity to the blues now sums up in an ep, which represents what he always wanted to create, a mixture of pure blues-feeling and a catchy groove for the floors.

ltd nice price copies !!! new project by damian schwartz !!! sam the mummy lives in the deepest catacombs of his existence. hardly ever he can be seen on the surface and just a few ones have the >honor< of knowing him. even stranger it is his relationship with damián schwartz, the only person allowed to listen and disclose his awesome and disturbing works. here is the first one: untitled1 (mupa008). it starts with cradle, a brief but captivating prologue. and from the cradle to the grave, here comes untuned (interview), where sam introduces us in his most personal universe, crumbling his darkest secrets. soon we can see what hes up to, because despite of appearing as a hard and cold guy, on the very first beats he reveals pure soul music. tireless groove with magnificent salsa touches, bittersweet cymbals and congas that run with an intimidating elegance. on b side, pharaon s cat introduces stand up. little by little, it steps into a background of hypnotic and jazzy sequences accompanied by aristocratic piano notes that try to break into, but can only go out on tiptoes. so smart and so danceable at the same time.

zweite 50 weapons-remix ep nach dem klassiker 2009 von moderat in remixes von shackleton, t++ und headhunter, auch ein handgestempeltes whitelabel. addison grooves >i go boom< aus der >adventures in rainbow country< ep als rework von chicagos feinstem juke-produzenten dj rashad, sowie doc daneeka, house-botschafter aus swansea und betreiber von ten thousand yen. dazu der resident advisor: i go boom might just be the biggest addison groove track yet.

the same people behind emotional rescue launch as fine sister imprint in the shape of emotional rescue, with a near perfect insight into how the label will operate thanks to nzambi - a quite stunning full length album from jason letkiewicz under his alan hurst moniker. if you consider yourself an avid purchaser of vinyl, you will no doubt have added some letkiewicz heat to your collection in recent times, with excellent releases as steve summers and innergaze in recent times. the alan hurst project sees the brooklyn producer in more laid back form, indulging his passion for library sounds and experimental electronics with just as much aplomb. allegedly commissioned to soundtrack a film on modern haitian voodoo, nzambi is a woozily intoxicating thirteen track set that opens your senses to a true darkness in this producers palette of sounds that has not really been explored before.

that is attack, decay, sustain, release. the adsr envelope is just one type of envelope, but it is a popular one that has been used in electronic music for decades. attack is the period of time after the initial release, it is typically the loudest part of the sound decay is the phase while you are going from the attack to the sustain – you are decaying the volume from this sharp initial phase to the normal volume phase sustain is the normal phase of the sound. it is typically less volume than the attack, and go on for an indefinite period of time, or for a specific amount of time release is the draw down from the sustain period to no sound. a fade out.
mini-lp release, cd version included.

get on the funk wave is a 4 track ep of original nu disco and house cuts from this up and coming italian producer (and friend of fellow italian nicholas). he released his first track in july 10 on elegant bit record. reminds us of kuba (and maybe just as good). in glenview die cut sleeve.

pimprinella 006 comes along with 2 newcomers, the cologne based guys freiboitar. few months ago they just dropped the demo track floetenflirt to our box and shouted we are big fans of pimprinella!!! and what can we say? little puppie is a big fan of kölsch beer now too! if you remember rene bourgeois playing on fusion festival this year, then you ll be aware of his remix. and finally we welcome jules & moss, 2 great guys from france who already released on dirtybird, flash, musik gewinnt freunde or session deluxe. chapeau, violet one!

rising electronic producer mario basanov releases his highly sought after debut album with long time label partners needwant records this autumn. available as an limited double vinyl pack with specially created gate fold artwork including exclusive vinyl versions. also included is the full album as bonus cd insert.

so you didnt get that last firecracker that came in an incredible sleeve and was limited to 45 copies? well now you and the other 99% of humanity can at least own the music contained within it with this regular re-release, and to be honest although the sleeve isnt hand-weaved by a peruvian tribe centuries known for their mastery of textile craft, the one yer getting here is pretty goddamn sweet. bringing together calypso rhythms and bernie worrell-does-acid lines, fudge fingas >untytled< is an exemplary example of why everyone is in admiration of the geezer, and that is because he can actually make actual music, with compositions and melody and all that. excuse the lofty jargon. linkwood bring equal heat in the form of >secret value<, but guess what? fudge fingas has gone and blessed it with the refreshing audio equivalent of yer girlfriends mint & tea tree shower gel, adding liquid bass and lush keys. the fingas finishes off the e.p with one of his most interesting tracks to date >minus 616<, a dense, immersive piano piece that proves that getting this e.p out to a wider audience was just simply a righteous and necessary move. take that skinny tie off, wrap it round yer arm and mainline that uncut funk, baby.

nice price deal !!! next amazing snuff trax. mixup between finest chicago and detroit back in the day sound. trax with the taste of good old times. the past is now, the present is now, the future is now!

alejandro vivanco, chilean producer and dj offers us >energia roja<, an unusual and sensory journey into his minimal, organic techno universe, which takes us far, far away, on a journey to the distant borders of abstract. in the same, insane and twisted vein, >los imaginarios< is an invitation into a land of dreams, a perfect soundtrack to tim burtons alice in wonderland played in slow-motion and a perfect companion to further appreciate this epic journey. two non-conventional tracks which are somewhat reminiscent of productions from berlins perlon records.
last but not least, the remix of >energia roja< by jens bond, one of berlins techno activists that needs no more introduction, this rendition takes us a step closer to the dancefloor with a minimal, deep version of the track that is just perfect for those lush, sexy warm ups.

after the glowing success of seven black 001 by autodeep, deepchild and eddie c, seven black continue to drive forward with yet more quality.

disko404 is a long-established promotions crew based in graz, austria, whose renowned monthly events are all about celebrating the bass in dubstep, funky, house, juke, grime, hip hop, electro, and experimental sounds. earlier this year they branched out as a record label, launching with a well-received split ep from sun people & franjazzco. their second release features two new tunes by sun peoples simon/off as well as a splendid remix by bass clef.
early support comes from scratcha dva (hyperdub), brackles (rinse fm), phon.o (50weapons), and bunzer0 (sub fm), and with a strictly limited run of 250 pressed, this is a 12 inch that will be in demand long after supply holds out.

with influences ranging from breakcore and jungle to techno and electronica, their sound is just as far-reaching with organic sample-based productions and synthetic, processed electronic beats. lakkers torann ep, their second release for blueprint, kick-starts with the dappling beats of summer rains, before moving onto the more experimental mustard crying. ciar takes us back to the dancefloor with ominous undertones, while static & amp is a simple but effective exercise. finally the diminutive but meticulous one note caps the ep off in fine lakker style.

it has been four long years since glissando released the critically acclaimed >with our arms wide open we march towards the burning sea< and the duo finally return this november with a new record >the world without us<. the new material bares glissandos trademark of ethereal voices and tip-toing piano melodies but the overall sound is richer and more expansive. epic swells of strings and guitars sore above the drones and field recordings to create an intense yet fragile noise. this lp is a highly limited deluxe package of just 300 copies, including code for free mp3 download of the full album.

this is the last teaser before the release of the kruse & nuernberg album >lets call it a day<, featuring, yet again, the beautiful vocals of stee downes. on remix duties, we have lazy days regular shur-i-kan with two completely different flavors. his 80s vocal mix is a beautiful update of the original, speeding up the tempo for peak time play, while his 90s dub is a straight up stripped down classic house re-work. first time on the label, we welcome nathan g with another fine remix that can be played at just about any time of the night. lastly, we have the original in all its beauty, at its slower original tempo.

>do your thing, just make sure you are ahead of the game<, warns >game<, the opening salvo of release, pangaeas new double ep for hessle audio. it is a statement of intent for the entire record, reflecting the increasingly idiosyncratic nature of his music. releases eight tracks are entities unto themselves, each a natural evolutionary continuation of the rough and rolling pirate radio techno he began to culture on last years hex and inna daze 12 inches.

>the truth about love< by p!nk on black double 12 inch vinyl.

its just a small sample off the groove platter a little something to whet your appetite, if you will. and who better to get the juices flowing than mobilees own versatile house-maven, ray okpara.

rmixed coloured vinyl only release !!! eady for some bambule and some glory in the morning suit for deep emotional moments on the dancefloor whitelabels, bootlegs, dubplates are a part of the dj culture since the late 70s when djs starts to be individuals and not anymore record players of radio edits. in a time of digital revolution is it important to remember where we come from and to understand music as a gift from me to you and let that we enjoy it on the floor in the manifest of dancing. no profit, no hurt, just free music for free people.

following on from a pair of extended players released in 2011 (passed me by / we stay together), andy stott returns to modern love with luxury problems, an 8 track album of new material recorded over the last 12 months. five of the tracks on the album feature the voice of alison skidmore, andys onetime piano teacher whom he hadnt seen since he was a teenager back in 1996. there was no grand gesture in mind, it just sort of happened – but after almost a year of studio work the result is really quite unlike anything you will have heard from him before.

pascal viscardi is just a very talented house producer.... just listen. and deep house don agnes on remix duties... any questions ???

just a few months after polar era, their acclaimed second reference, lycaon records casts the next, end of times. its a bit peculiar third product since, as its name implies, it means that time comes to an end: past, present and future. as in the previous deliveries, two cuts original by agony forces are accompanied by two remixes, one by the enigmatic swedish abdulla rashim and the other by the booming nx1.

we wish there were more moments like the ones that madis ones new 12 inch, in the image (blnk-27), brought to mind. >the hotness< is just that, a mechanical, bass driven, hip-hop cut while >the abyss< recalls the days when the amen break and substance reigned over celebrity status. available on 12 inch vinyl, cut at 45 rpm. we recommend trying these out at 33 rpm as well!

just in time for the anniversary the 10th beatwax vinyl is coming from homebase...

sumerian fleet ep on creme eclipse. big menacing darkwave with an industrial tinge from this mysterious west coast super group, like someone finally removed those damn sunglasses from the sisters of mercy dude and showed him the world was an even sadder place than he imagined. little was heard of him since. a masterclass in weltschmerz.

incl herb lf & eddie c remixes, just slamming deep house

manmakemusics fifth release, a 10 inch vinyl-only ep, comes from u, the newest addition to the imprints expanding roster. unlike the labels first four outings that were aimed squarely at the dance floor, this record is a stranger and more pensive affair featuring 4 raw cuts of genre defiant electronica. opener >eah< borrows from 80s chicago house but strips out some of the more familiar tropes leaving just a guttural and infectious rhythm. >evil spirits< is a stuttering mournful piece while >haunted< flips a faintly recognisable sample over a shuffling 4x4 beat. the ep is rounded off with >heaven<, the most optimistic of the 4 tracks, and described by the artist as a warped homage to an idealised golden era of british dance music.

2014 repress !! we think we do not have to introduce sven weisemann, but for all of you who are not familiar with his work... sven has released on top labels such as delsin, smallfish, echocord, liebe detail and maybe the label he is mostly associated with is mojuba records, which is based in berlin. his release for telrae starts with elapse a track so detached from everything and at the same time so earthly, it gains that mystic touch some trax radiate. it is again a timeless track on telrae what we think is a quality we strive for. light sway seems harder at first but turns out to be more melodic and light than elapse and so the title fits it just right!

mooch recordings kicks off with the imperial street ep from quenum, the man behind cadenza and a back catalogue of hits across labels crosstown rebels, orac, soma, trapez, to name but a few. his his legendary set back in july cemented his place in the mooch hall of fame and also put him on the radar for the first ever release on the label. quenums hypnotic, groovers on this ep are just right in building up the night, riding through peak time and out the other end down at the afterparty. on remix duties we have invited tim xavier to weave his tech magic and add his signature harder, darker sound to this killer ep.

just 14 years old cologne native tim engelhardt is gifted with talent and skills others wont reach within decades. after his remix debut on the new vinyl-label playmusic productions, headed by andreas lindemann, tim comes up with his first solo release including 3 tracks for showing us what the definition of deep house really means. a perfect fusion of groovy soundscapes, rhythmic percussions, melodic piano hooks and epic synth pads is just the basic description of the complex timeless sounds he did. this kid gots real potential being a big one in the future, we should definitely keep an ear on it ...

before the release of his debut album on ki, monokle throws in an ep to show us what to expect. the beautiful track >swan< pretty much describes perfectly what monokle means when he says that simple rhythms and catchy beats get him bored quickly. being influenced by the music of the british imprint warp for example, the sankt petersburg based artist has pretty much developed his own interpretation of well, what should it be called? it is monokle! he has his very own aesthetic approach to music and has a very fine hand for sublime melodies and atmospheres. on the b side he teams up with his friend and partner milinal. >swan< gets a proper retouch by daisuke tanabe, who shares monokles deep soundscapes and is just the right member of the ki family to get his hands on this ep.
pressing on transparent blue 10 inch vinyl.

elbee bad is another great underground house pioneer from the formative days of nyc house in the late eighties. the true story of house music finally gets told... tip! like the burrell brothers, elbee bad aka lamont booker, is an early house producer from new york city. and the comparison doesnt stop there. elbee bad has also recorded under different aliases and has also remained largely unknown to a wider audience. he has also recorded for nu groove records, for which he has recorded his most famous material, but like the burrells he wasnt a nu groove fixture. bad recorded for a slew of other independent new york house labels like bassment, city limits, easy street, red heat, united states of america and then there was his own larhon records
