anthem alert! two of the biggest techno producers on the moment combined one 1 ep!

spiros needs no intruction either! his label analogmode is on a move and watch out for the new sub-label in the next year. here you have 2 signature sound tracks by spiros. killer!

weso006 is the very expected ep from ragga fonda already well known as rio padice, this italian producer surprises us with this new release. one of the must of the summer in ibiza, especially in underground where it had lots of support. the track is absolutely unique with this ragga flavour in a new techy style. the dance floor just loves it!

the musical evolution of matthias tanzmann as producer is in full swing - a quick look over his releases and remixes of the last year reveals an ease and sophistication, as hefurther progresses the reduction of house music. and with great pleasure we get to provide his pinnacle of the year so far, >chano<, the two versions of the track demonstrating just where house can take you on the threshold of a new decade. the a side concentrates on a percussive rhythm and a lyrical vocal, its carefully placed sounds building the track into a dynamic and hypnotic whole. the b side of >chano< is arranged more classically - a deep chord, a clear beat, accentuated hi-hats and claps…

supernature hasnt put a foot wrong since its inception back in late-2007 with a stream of fluid, percussive housereleases hitting the spot for an army of high profile jocks.
>el condor< by pele closes a great 2009 for the label and maintains the quality levels in fine style. with just a handful of original releases since 2005, mostly for the impeccable connaisseur imprint, patrick gallenmüller aka pele has managed to make a disproportionate impact on housemusic. his releases and remixes have seen massive support and a quick check on his myspace reveals a dj diary of artists twice as prolific - a testament to the quality of his work (and his djing). the title cut of this threetrack/one remix ep sees the bavarian producer present a track which combines the simplest of elements into a hynpotic yet memorable track.

back in the day, when i discovered the music from reggie dokes and the psychostasia label i felt something similar as when i listened for the first time the music from lil louis at the end of the 80s. i mean... is this music really house? it must be because all the good househeads play and respect his stuff... perhaps just for that different and unique way of make house...

round 5 on kondens with a forward groovin dj 4 tracker by italian newcomer luigi madonna !! cool building & running tracks for the prime time.. nothing more to say, its just rocking!

1991 classic, 180 g vinyl on 2x12 vinyl set!!

this 12 inch sampler includes three exclusive tracks taken from the cd compilation >if this is house i want my money back< (permvac 046-2). first we have hunee, one of berlins finest, a top man and dj, and now also producer. his first 12 inch release, just out on feel music, is a burner, and >standin high< is no exception. walter jones track >i am loved< starts the uptempo part of the compilation with a monster modulated bass line and some blissful dreamy vocals. also worth checking is his fantastic recent release on dfa records. side b features a fantastic groove machine from one of the biggest acts in the disco/house sector in uk at the moment - 6th borough project, the project from craig smith and remix man of the moment the revenge

alex worked together with artists like john aquaviva and released on labels like blue fin, idj, freuqenza or ministry of sound to name just a few. his mate nihil is also well known for his outstanding releases. both came together for this ep and give you 2 huge strong detroit influenced techno / tech house club tracks. this release has amazing energy and will come as strong limited 12 inch on the mysterious 3rd wave black edition. just listen!

with mexilhao steve parker continues to impress the global scene as this awesome tune, once unleashed, is absolutely taking no prisoners on it s way. so it shouldn t be a big surprise that no other than dubfire just took steve under his musical wing. steve s tunes keep being play-listed by the likes of richie hawtin, dubfire, derrick may, josh wink etc...

constant development in stagnating musical landscapes is the key to remain catchy as an artist these days. adrian martin & eleminal are always yearning for progress. >la calma<, their new release on miniload gives you a listen on their growing sophistication. an adroit beat conduction married to a sneaky bass giving birth to a tremendous and powerful musical moment, peppered with hidden hooks and a savory break. >la calma< is smoother than previous releases by adrian & eleminal without condemning a certain roughness of preceding collaborations. tom clark (highgrade records) follows that footprint, though adding a more frontal bass paired with a dreamy almost breathed on jazzy feel melody construction. miniload artists doppelt gemoppelt are redefining >la calma< in a straighter harmonization. no vanilla - just a clear and well structured body, adding cushy noises and warm imbedded waves.

the heels of love, the new milan based duo born from the joint between michele tessadri (fratelli riviera, bearfunk) and sapo (member of the love supremeproject on tirk) >two disco reprimands with an unhealthy penchant for slap bass, synths and vintage drum machines< has made a lot of noise lately with just a couple of works. after debuting here on mom with a huge remix that made its way up to beats in space and tsugis 2009 best of compilation they have had the first official release on david griffiths (the man behind jisco music) new label, under the shade. this one has sent them right into the chart of almost every known dj of the scene. >quiet please< is a slow, 110 bpm groovy piece of psychedelic disco that has its force in the balanced mix of the wobbling analog bassline, the p-funk guitars and the old flavouredsynth riffs reminescent of 1992 chicago house.

italian duo davide zeta and claudio basile moved to london from milan in 96 & 97 respectively, they quickly achieved themselves their individual niches in londons spotlight as promoter/dj duo, moving into production with their first official releases in 2008, claudio as a solo artist, and davide as part of slimboystwo. when they finally joined forces for their first release as dzeta n basile gained lots of attention from different record labels throughout uk and europe. claudios sound comes from a progressive background and davides has more of a house feeling. the result is a unique blend of hypnotic grooves, deep vibes and percussive/house beats, which is the trade mark of their style. after just more than a year running, with dj performances in londons most important venue and 10+ singles released, the future in 2010 is looking bright.

just in time for x mas rising music deliveres some gifts for your boxes...

palette recordings celebrates its 13 year anniversary with a release by the duo that started it all for the label. no giant mix compilation or collection of remixes, just another example of what has built the foundation of palette over the last 13 years. john tejada & arian leviste have been collaborating for over 18 years now. with this release the duo in a way come full circle, combining some of their oldest production techniques with newer ones. its been a long road for these 2 seeing styles and trends change, equipment and technology come and go over the years, but what has remained a constant is their vision of electronic music. >messenger< with its subtle intro of modular synths and rhythmic pads breaks out of its sinister drop full force into a multi dimensional crowd pleaser. the stabs continue to build energy while layered drum programming and modulating synth lines escalate the tracks energy. on the flip, >observer< continues with a fierce pace that harkens back to the days of palette 4, combining vintage synth stabs and drum machines recreating that classic vibe which is gaining such momentum again these days. the difference here is these guys were around at the time already releasing music that would garner them such high acclaim over the years.

1st amenti release!!! muffin luv features a monstrous analog bassline, coupled with classic disco refrains. walker i just features shuffled drum programming, thick bass & the occasional quirky vocal snippets. chicken tandoori is a great marriage of rich analog chicago bass (think the percolator) and succulent vocal samples

another show stopper from french outfitles umins. its all about the remixes on this dope three tracker, as home and garden kick things off with a tough, synth heavy retro 80s mix thats a totally new sound for these boys. on the flip brett johnson shows why hes the man, killing the floor with a truly bugged out take on the original thats just got prime time madness written all over it. sounds like a bit of plastikmans spastik in there! icon on point with an essential underground release.

incl rush rmxs!! this big tune comes as a mixed bag remix-package - there seems to be a mix for just about everyone. besides a full vocal re-rub that sounds like tech-house turned disco by dean coleman, there’s also a harder funky house vocal pass (josh da funky 1&steve smooth) plus two hard techno mixes by dj rush in typical high octane style

after their successful compilation aspekt is back with their next strike. the brilliant minimal techno bomb by dan reed leaves nothing to be desired. the track >express package< on side a offers ingenious powerful techno beats, and by melodic elements gunjah creates a very individual touch with dreaming character in his remix. on side b it goes on with pushing sound, the smasher >saver package< and the djafar & uniquexx remix are just right to attract the clubber.

mr dehnert delivering! after is succesfull releases on fachwerk and the first basement series release its time for another essential techno release by mike dehnert. after the little hype on the many blogs its another release that will create a stir. lautschrift is probably the sexiest masculine techno track we ve heard in a while! a wolf in sheep clothes. undercooled phat techno drive with a nice mellow vocoder voice, soft bleepy sounds and a deep sub-bass... and then slowly the sexy bassline becomes more and more dominant and energetic and the tracks turns into a killer. amazing track! regelschrift and nano are two heavy techno tracks from the neue berliner techno schule. just as we like it!

sex tags mania with more leftfield dance music... the label just does what they feel and that goes from crazy nordic afro funk (see recent sex tags amfibia release) to intens house tracks, uptempo techno or just raw low-key tracks like this one. they have at least one major fan called omar s who loves the label!
produced and recorded live by don papa at work it studios, moss norway in 1999 and 2000.if you are ever in norway, take a trip to moss and visit platesjappa - old school records with soul. you might meet don papa and the likeminded.

baaz comes back home at sthlmaudio recordings for a rich and surprise full new ep called woodland drive. the 12 inches start right off with sink, a very baaz styled house track which is dance appealing and yet refined and subtle. a raw bassy groove monster track. the next one might surprise the baaz fans out there, yes it’s a hip-hop track featuring the soul vocals of katrina marie. we figured out that it might be fresh to provide some other point of view in the repeating herself dance scene. the b side strikes hard on the house side again, it s gone is one of those pure shining and rolling tracks. once to you uplift it you’d just let it go. a bass heavy subtle and groovy house cut, baaz trademark?! essential. and again the b2 and closing track is an lush and low key hip-hop science out of baaz most retired places

the 90s were without doubt the revolution of a genre of music called house music for those who remember when house was house. one of the biggest tunes in 1990, which made house music a crossover sound, was double dee feat. danny losito – found love. it was not just a record of many, it was the record of that time. now danny losito aka mr. double dee strikes again with a fantastic song and vocal performance in 3 versions to choose from.

its a rainy dark night sitting in the studio and drinking champagne with the idea to produce a track just for play. but when we plaid it in the club the dancefloor was out of control...

brand new ep on qalomota records. we proud to present you a new producer. directly influenced by the dance culture party from club djoon. dj steaw dj/producer from the city of rennes (brittany, france), bring us this ep. a good piece of deep, soulful, cluby and arfo influence, just create to feed the housedancers and househeadz. you will able to recognize the old skool feeling like nervous records or nu groove and also feel the touch of the more recent procucers like ralf gum, culoe de song, marlon d, dennis ferrer... first but not the last ep on qalomota records for sure...

strong minimal techno release with balls from sinisa tamamovic from bosnia. the way he creates atmospheres with only a few sounds, perfectly fitting breaks and unique soundmodelling show his outstanding talent, certainly a guy to watch. additionally alex bau delivers a remix, and well, what else could you expect as another sure floorshot from mr. techno. go grab this just as all the topjocks before...early plays: alex bau, len faki, kai kinkel...

marco bernardi was an obvious choice for who got to do the first album on frustrated funk. representing his most delicate compositions ranging from freaky minimalistic electro trickery to the sweetest and intense excursions in the field of what they use to call intelligent techno . we simply picked out his best moments along the line and put it all together for this brilliant presentation. with this piece of art we show again that we don t give a shit about new styles, trends and hypes. we just want to deliver a very sweet package that you will still be playing and cherish in 15+ years from now. this deluxe double vinyl album will be sweetened with hand stamped label art, hand made screen printed sleeves and pressed on pretty pink transparent vinyl to make this package extra special. enjoy!!

fresh driven tracks, just listen please...

supported by kollektiv turmstrasse, kombinat1000, someone else!! matching the cold season in northern europe, acker records extends its collection with a beautiful just as functional ear warmer. designed by the gents carsten rausch and ferdinand laurin from the city of trier, this acoustic accessory convinces in even four aspects. on the one side, the warm sounds of shout can be found, a really inspiring track that develops certain trancy qualities with its throughout melodic character and some pretty trippy delay experiments. after that, the pleasant boost is taken up by quattrow, here the anyway outrageous groove of the lower frequency spectrum is raised to the stakes by a casual and housey motive. this track is redesigned by the dudes of rundfunk3000 on the other side, they serve it on crunchy and highly energetic rhythms and spice it up with their typical, playful instrumental entries. finally, the tribe is also pretty much straight forward and again scores with warm feel-good sound that dives into intoxicating depths.

a massive vocal hook, spreading positive vibes and forcing you to dance and sing along. this track will no doubt be just as successful on the radio as it will be on the dancefloor - this is a serious dj weapon!!!

just only one word: killer !!

big with carl cox, michel de hey, gel abril, slam, hernan cattaneo, kenny larkin, sasse, jamie stevens,... hell yeah proudly welcome on board enzo elia, a producer who genulily restores our faith into free range house music, if house is a feeling then enzo elia is going to touch your heart with this new 12 after his recent releases for be as one, lion1 and youngodds. we are not going to bore you with a long list of supporters or useless descriptions, just feel free to choose your favourite version between the peak time beat driven vocal main mix or the absolultely tripped out and moody afrologic version. if you love house music we are sure you are going to dig this! hell yeah!

another blaster ep on the strong special series imprint. get ready for some serious funky techno bizzle from all your favourit artists. first up its man of the moment a.paul remixing ramons track turning it into a true floorburner. a.paul trademark bassline and the uplifting synths stay on top.. next up the french mat303 and josh love. josh just had his debut on patterns and its doing really well! this is samba bussiness for all the carnival people. big hit for rio!claudio opens the flip with his incredible sound. he is relatively known, but creates music like his been here for ages. mature techno for the masses.

all the way from new zealand to the urban landscapes of berlin, simon beeston is a man who likes diversity. this is not just evident in his choice of residence, but also in his musical output. following an ep on highgrade digital and a track on our various artists vol. vi record, simon now presents dusty back room, his first solo 12inch release on highgrade. the ep opens with the title track dusty back room, a track of strings and stabs, and a sound not exactly typical of previous highgrade releases. but when the music comes with such compelling energy and provocative atmosphere, were prepared to make an exception. new zealand meets berlin as we cast an eye over green landscapes and ocean swells, while the bumpy groove intoxicicates us with its magic spell. that simon beeston is a man of great contrast is clearly evident on the b-side with neon cringe and cymbolic. the percussive heat of the club brings us back from the organic landscape of his homeland and into the neon lights of the night. neon cringe resonates with a healthy dose of acid pump, while cymbolic provides a bass driven journey complete with cut up vocals and blistering cymbal rolls. this is a release that richly deserves its round number: highgrade number 70. especially with the addition of the bonus digital track tough luck, another highlight all of its own.

a classically-trained jazz virtuoso and national rock n roll hero in argentina, gutis double 12inch pack for desolat will leave you in no doubt of his ability to twist a snaking groove into something echoingly hypnotic. the tracks contained here are already a favourite in the record boxes of artists like loco dice, carl cox and marco carola, while gutis life story could itself be the subject of a story by jorge luis borges: >i leave to several futures (not to all) my garden of forking paths<. just two years after his first live sets in europe, desolat is proud to present gutis las cosas que no se tocan. the beats follow guti across continents: mr good vibes was composed in a hotel room in stuttgart after an argument with a friend, while the serious dancefloor vibes of sasa, the hustler and ieuuu were channelled in martinez studio. ieuuu and the hustler feature slices of glamorous, haunting vocals by jayson walker, a british singer that guti discovered on myspace. and sasa boasts gutis own vocal touches. meanwhile, the track aguanile is inspired by one of his favourite melodies as a child, one that he’s collected many versions of. the last track on the release, el campeon, reaches a bittersweet ending in the wide open space between percussive trills and a cut-out refrain, inspired by gutis favourite latin storylines of broken hearts and pain.

detroit, 1993. the burden brothers, known for their octave one project and 430west record label, start a new sub label called direct beat. it was created to release the techno electro sounds of inner city detroit. in 1995 the label was in full effect and released music produced by friends such as tommy hamilton, keith tucker, mad mike banks, will web and them self.
now 15 years later we know that direct beat was one of the big influences on how electro and techno is today. together with underground resistance, axis, m-plant in detroit and some like minded people in europe and artists such as drexciya, aphex twin, autechre and dopplereffekt it changed the way people looked at techno... it broke away from the dominant 4/4 kick and brought back the funk and emotion that disappeared once house and techno became popular and mainstream music in the early 90s.
we are happy to bring back direct beat records by making some of its classics available for a new generation. this is a part of techno music history we may not forget about! especially in these days that people consume more and more of the format tracks. this shows that emotion, passion and energy creates much more then just a dj tool... it creates tracks that become part of peoples life! and not for just one or two months in your i-pod... but for the rest of your life in your record collection! timeless classic collection... must have!

throughout the life of bbe very few djs have left a long last impression on our ethos - real music for real people. vincent williams is one of a few active djs today whose versatility and all round knowledge covers so much ground.

the second m_recs release confirm the label concept: pure techno sound. in this release max m (m_recs owner) presents the title track >egg< with his repetitive groove characteristic. three big artists make the remixes. the first one by the english chris finke (flux recordings), the second one its too hard by the dutch techno master bas mooy (audio assault) and the third rmx is by the dutch intelligent techno artist charlton ravenberg (labyrinth, audio assault). if this is just the second release, i cant imagine the future of this label. its a concentrate of the best techno for all the techno crowd. big!

big with: laurent garnier, luke slater, karotte, ame, tiefschwarz, damian lazarus, brothers vibe, mathias kaden, hot chip, john tejada, slam, shinedoe, mark broom,... the fourth release of polymorph are two pumpin tech- house tracks produced by youandme (ornaments, rotary cocktail, platzhirsch, dekadent, snork) with amazing dark vocals and a lot of minimal flavored sounddesign. special colored vinyl!!

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
both of the remixers we chose represent different sounds in techno that have influenced mikes sound.
1: sophisticated italian groove*
giorgio gigli is an italian minimal-trance maestro, an incredibly modern renaissance man who is also a trained sommelier.** he is rising in the ranks and catching up in profile to his occasional production partner, donato dozzy. hopefully we will have more of his tracks on turbo soon.
2: m¦n¦m¦l
hobo is a fellow canadian best known for his excellent work on m¦nus. rumor has it, he borrowed richies quad-macro template file to finish the final version of this remix... whatever he did, his second effort came up huge, this mix is excellent.
enjoy!

after surprising belgium and the rest of the world with their >zoopah dupah< and >heads up< eps, sound of stereo is back with a new, fresh sound best described as >something you should hear for yourself<.
in the past few months sound of stereo has been all over the place. not only have they played every large festival and venue in belgium & holland, their tracks have also been picked up by big names such as bloody beetroots, steve aoki, mstrkrft, armand van helden, crookers, congorock, jokers of the scene and many, many more.
with the new >zipper ep< comes a more mature sound that proves that sound of stereo is more than just wobbly beats and funny lyrics. the ep contains 3 brand new tracks that will be presented at i love techno on the 24th of october. the official release is scheduled exactly one month later: on the 24th of november. dont hesitate and get them while they are hot!

the first of 2 planned 12inch samplers to come out from ytre rymden dansskolas debut album. bange anelser appears in a slightly longer edit done by yours truly and on the b-side youll get the remix from hotly tipped production team frisvold & lindbæk. it took us a few years to involve dear mr.lindbæk(rune)but it was worth the wait. trippy disko at its most…. eh… trippy? anyway, a dubby delight kahluha madness and u sving appear in original version from the album, both personal favourites which we just had to have on vinyl. thomas

>minimal is cool but in the long term a bit too unsexy!< this statement of marcel knopf that is by now quite old, shows his heart does not beat for one genre after all. after the first and more technoid single release from his album >dusty dance< monsieur knopf satisfies his longing for real house with single no.2 >crazy about<. r&b singer camaras soulful voice leaves quite an impression on this powerful beat. in >skinny bitches< marcel knopf processes insane nights: you just want to drink a beer in your favourite pub but then you meet a couple of friends and they take you to the worst disco in town. this high-energy track is uncompromising and must be played during peak time and not during warm-up sets or after-hours.

already played by tiefschwarz, matt john, karotte, mihalis safras, italoboys, tolga fidan, marcus meinhardt, ivan smagghe, jimpster...no filler - just killer

just a fanstastic hypnotic / groovin techhouse tune... flipside more relaxed housier

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 particular view on a musical future might have been considerably different when olaf hilgenfeld (berlin) met iftah gabbai (jerusalem) for first sessions in 2004. the piano player hilgenfeld used the accordion that time mainly, whilst gabbai was using all instruments available, a computer was among those more by chance. only one year later the duo skinnerbox played regularly on such uplifting, innovative off-partys that came up in the new techno generation again.
that was just the beginning. skinnerbox have developed a purely electronically composed and performed music (partly featuring vocals by elle_p) – that is not based on loops but improvised techno inspired house and minimal house. the roles in the duo are clearly settled: olaf hilgenfeld – moog synthesizer, iftah gabbai – hardware drum machines, max/msp und ableton live.
all these distinct impacts and effects can be heard on their various releases from the last two years, but far better in their live sets. skinnerbox are an experience, taking you on expedition with paralyzing minimal, breaking house, hard-edged techno-jazz, and ambient electronica futurism.
it was a desire to eternalize this play- & colorful diversity, often just caused by the moment, as entire homogeneity. thus, they needed to leave temporarily their environmental techno and minimal house scapes. >king of spades and marmalades< – the result – is a jazz opus wrapped into a disco suitcase. it is a reminiscence as well as going far ahead of daily musical habits, shown not at least by the order of tracks, do not starting with a stunning hit of the album, but with 20 minutes of challenge.

played by: siopis, kreon, mr. statik, lauhaus, nekes, josh wink, mihai popoviciu, mirco violi, john selway, gel abril, oliver klein, fog, sweet n candy, the glitz, gurtz, echonomist, paco osuna, frank nova, mihalis safras, jorge savoretti, kiko martinez, sascha kösch aka bleed (de:bug), pol_on, wehbba, greg delon, edgar de ramon, franco bianco, patrick lindsey, solee, ondrej and many more..
after the previous successful lemos release, quantized music hosts for the 1st time greek veteran dj/producer, thodoris triantafillou. his >suspicious behavior< release on the greek label rhythmetic earlier this year was a big success. he has also released material on souvenir and genowefa among others. thodoris is also one half of the minimal techno act novox, known for releases on labels such as ware, safari electronique, resopal and balkon, just to name a few. this ep contains two original tracks from thodoris plus two remixes from french dj / producer dj w!ld (catwash / robsoul / adult only).
