jt donaldson makes a quick return to hudd traxx after his big just bounce release. jt takes things deeper on this ep with 2 slices of cutting edge house music. first up is the future, a deep house groover with live guitar riffs, synthy stabs and a big bass line. flip over to the b side and jt serves up a techy number with plenty of spacey fxs thats build throughout. the underground culture tourist (classic) reworks the original with tougher beats and sick breaks to round off another top notch release from hudd traxx

sven väth open air burner & also big with steve bug, claude von stroke, mike monday, c-rock, kiki, orlando voorn, satoshi tomiie, dj yellow !! mark august – just exalted by innervisions for their secret weapons mini sampler, known through his outstanding contribution on our compilation >grand cru< and his amazing releases on mezzotinto and curle, he enters our label family fully now with his first own release. his tracks declare his love to detroit techno and house, somehow modern but with a classic understanding. when he goes live, you should be prepared for something extraordinary. a wide colourful and dynamic pallet of sound that may amaze in its deepness but will rock your mind and body nonetheless. old joy – there is no happiness without sadness. this cognition was the initial point for this extravaganza. this timeless track sounds like a fine blend of an old djax-up record and fresh neodetroitish ingredients. its long build-up makes >old joy< a perfect match for the open-air season 2007

incl. pig & dan rmx!! a big epic masterpiece for the open-airs ! with frank müller aka beroshima, we welcome one of germanys senior techno house producers, who is combining the best from both house and techno already since 1994 - long before the implementation of the term >tech-house<. whereas frank müller just like guy gerber was never caught between two stools but rather has the rare talent to reach both house and techno fans with his productions. and so he does again with his cocoon debut >horizon<, an hommage which reminds of the grand ol times of r&s, with xxl suspense, driving beats and hypnotic sounds and melodies

ph-neutre is 22 year old dj and producer raphaël fortin from france. together with his partner frother he just started the label médiateur electronics. d.digglers remix on the b-side takes a different approach starting very deep and spheric with lots of glitchy elements and small little details that give it a very hypnotic touch in a great and typical d.diggler groove-style

cynic returns with a great 12inch of disco tastic madness. the grooves are loose, the riffs low slung and the beats punchy. just the kind of stuff we re used to hear from the cynic stable. proper bomb. this e.p features three hot tracks in a tribute to the sundance kid, the a side the sundance kid, comes complete with galloping horses, rattlesnakes and gunshots this track is the wild west meets the mirror ball. the first track on the b side westbound 23, is named after the first train robbery that the sundance kid committed in his early years before he joined the wild bunch, the blaze of glory that finishes the e.p. is a reference to the well documented last stand, where butch cassidy and the sundance kid were surrounded by the bolivian army

pounding uk rave & loop infected techno tracks by alex calver, concrete djz and rhythm technologies !!!

back in 1998 this was probably just about the wrongest record you had ever heard…and it has to be said that not much has changed. forshaw has a knack of turning out ridiculously hard and mangled electro and techno tracks – but still managing to make them sound >poppy<. sometimes, as in the case of rockford for example, it is because he uses well recognisable (but unexpected) samples. but more often it is just because he manages to make tunes (no matter how hard) that make you stop gurning and start smiling

germanys electro purists mas 2008 are back with the elco_16.0 >un-destroyable structures< on electronic corporation. they still fulfill the expectations on real powerfull and danceable electrotracks. machines seemed really being animated by kirchner & mueller on their new 12inch. they keep on track in producing the oldschoolish hardware based way, like back in the old days. no plug-in pings and pongs, just really voltage controlled synthesizers and drummachines with deep, warm and noisy sounds. mas 2008 keep their tracks still based arranged with implementing song structures and vocal fragments – clubby with pop particles. who ever is keen on electronic music of the last two decades, will find all these influences on the elco_16.0

g t m k is gregor tresher (datapunk /cocoon / great stuff) monika kruse ( terminal m /electric avenue) this melodic, minimal, hypnotic release with a good build up will prove itself on the dance floor is limited to 500 only (physical copies) no hype, no label its just about the musik

"this ep combines different periods of time. oldschool and newschool elements is the key element of a modern production, no matter if its nasa or both legends acquaviva & lützenkirchen to deliver a masterpiece that is functional in every possible way. sirens and oldschool stabs on one side, combined with electronic fierceness and drumming madness. the b-side "hurt me" is more agressive, sawtooth sounds modulating through every spectrum of frequencies. at least one will get your ears bleeding or just the mind blowing if youre lucky enough to survive. cologne based producer pierce gives the >satellite< original a new face with his remix. long synth build ups, reduced drumming and massive compression focus on the basic needs and desires of a rocking dancefloor: to celebrate a break, a melody and to freak out when it starts at zero again"

yo. its 2007. many people make the wrong decision. dont want no hihats. just want smörsås. check this. this goes out to our main mongos speak, reh dogg and siggi. rest in peace. my respect, he was the best. yeah cmon. sometimes people make hihat. dont know what is for. bizniz! yeah thats right, cmon. we dont want no hihat, just live and love eachothers, our family our friends. we have so much smörsås. the world is too big. cmon.yeah. stop your hihats. stop your bizniz. we pray for god. check. why must you cry? bizniz. yeah c mon. if you were a wheel chair i would still care and love you? hugg & pepp 4 life 2007

after the quite dark winter-release shotgun 01 could be found in various playlists in germany (f.e. dj karotte) and outside and is almost sold out now, here is the second shot, which is - according to the season - more housey and funky. >its going down< works with classic house-vocals and a killer-groove, whereas >young in paradise< is a track full of tension, using a quite funky guitar-sample. this >young in paradise< has just been used by dj linus for his new mix-compilation on exun records.

goodlife, gigolo, hot banana or turbo are just four of the countless labels, where kiko has released some of his most eclectic productions. now it’s time for him to rock huntemann’s confused label. his sound is always trenched with electro, ebm and intergalactic disco elements - a certain ratio of retro. faces of life is no exception from this rule. saw-tooth basses a raw drumming and spaced out melodies pave the way for this rave club weapon from the outer rim of uranus. galaxia is another example for his approach towards electronic dance music – comparable to the dutch legend legowelt he simply knows about the analogue sound world. this is a big rock band shrivelled into a moog space ship

with huge audiofly rmx !! the unholy 13th release on oliver huntemanns dance electric label is most definitely one of the strongest to date. uks promising newcomers richard wakley & paul maddox aka spektre return to the label with nothing but a true club killer! the long a side belongs to audiofly aka rekleiner aka sleeper thief aka audiofly x with releases on get physical, connaisseur, tsuba, sixty four, mobilee, adrift and kickboxer to name just a few. they remix the title track dark horse in their very unique way a driving and atmospheric 2007 tech house journey. on the flip-side neon drift embodies a big-ass bass, cleverly arranged rhythmic structures and a huge strobe-light soaked rave melody

incl. a huge my my remix !! simon baker has been playing records for over 15 years now. being a true aficionado, his versatile and passionate dj sets are never bound to just one style. he is a firm believer of “if it’s good, play it”. his passion for deep electronic house and techno is further fortified by releases on his own imprint infant records. 2007 has been a brilliant year for simon so far, his fast-growing reputation is proven by current residencies at a number of uk’s acclaimed underground house nights including asylum & technique at the warehouse in leeds, and ddd at the key in london. apart from connaisseur, simon has recently been signed up to german top house label playhouse, and has also been picked by steve lawler as his worldwide support dj. for us, he opens his pandora’s box of production and delivers a masterpiece of current club music

bomb alert! peaktime pressure all the way! house music is dead is another unbelievable track the beats are tough but groovy, and dark electronic synths rise through the mix before the haunting main hook rears its head. think trentemoller meets fedde le grand.this track is buzzing everywhere & has just been picked up by a leading uk label for a forthcoming release!

chrysanthemum ep is the first new recording from kelley polar since his hugely successful debut album released in 2005, love songs of the hanging gardens. the seeds of chrysanthemum are described by mr. polar himself as a confluence of the apocalyptic fear that permeated all cold war childhoods, comic book illustrations of blood and violence abstracted into flora and a b grade science fiction novels portraying two teens in the final throes of lovemaking as the world is destroyed in nuclear apocalypse. yet despite this decidedly dark and unique approach, the song is nevertheless pure pop catchy and indelible once heard. rosenband is lighter in subject matter yet just as deep musically, filled with synthetic layers and rhythms that reveal themselves slowly on subsequent listens. despite the immediacy of the melodies, there is a detail that permeates all of kelley polars work and rewards the attentive listener. a completely reworked instrumental version of rosenband is stretched across the b side and is dare we say it a dancefloor killer, with a long, mix friendly intro building to an incredible crescendo. the track is arranged and mixed by morgan geist and was done so with djs in mind!

just 100% phat electro house flooraction!!!

disc one brings together three classic cuts from the nrk vaults. joey negros akabu project is currently undergoing a revival, what with new cuts phuture bound and im not afraid of the future currently in the front of many djs boxes. back in 2000, akabu recorded your wildest dreams for nrk, and was accompanied by the 2020 vision mix included here. ralph lawsons punchy, robotic club remix sounds just as relevant today as it did on its first release. on the flip, solid grooves trademark jackin remix of magik js feel alright still cuts the mustard and jamie andersons beautiful oceanic shimmers with cool 909 drums and luscious deep chords.

sven dohse is back to knock you off your feet with two more magnificent tracks. crusher means to break your bones not with violence, but force-wise. this dry bassline just pretends to be tame – like the whole ensemble does in the beginning. but initial conditions change persistently until you awake twirling in a gloomy moment of house. so compulsive it stinks. so offhand it hurts. so self-evident it makes you wanna scream. way after midnight weaver uplifts out of a sentiment of infinity. warm layers of sound come floating above an abyss hardly indicated. time barely scratches the surface of this pocket epic telling you on and on again: tomorrow never comes

the two amsterdam based djs and producers onno & rocco mundo present their newest release on the lmr imprint.insanity defense:as the track leads in with some raw bass lines the summerish synths take the overhand and gets your head at a big partyon the beach.with influences from old school trance and progressive this track is just 100% nostalgic and can expect many support from a very wide range of djs.classified insanity:then its time for some more house action on the b side.this track begins with a smooth build up, followed by some grindin basslines.and just like in isanity defense theres also a summerish break here.

nice price deal !!! road sound like massive attack going on a trip to brazil and africa, taking with them the soul of terry callier and the raw funk of gorillaz. it is a unique collaboration of musicians from backgrounds ranging from industrial funk to brazilian fusion, using instruments from berimbau and surdo to hurdy gurdy, moog and double bass. featuring vocals by valerie etienne (galliano, lucy jules, terry callier, and earl zinger the road crew deconstruct music to its roots, and rebuild it with no respect for pedestrians. the result is an infectious, fresh debut album which is to be announced for may 2007. as a first teaser there will be the single release of >my name< which features lorna brown on vocals. the track comes in 2 mixes which have been both produced by road and just show their versatile approach for modern urban music

german producer francesco diaz with a little help from those young rebels! more famed for their funkier productions, the duo allow their darker selves to creep outof the studio delivering a dark, heavy synth-graced beauty, complete with a naughty spoken top line….as ever with joia, the remixes aint just on here to make up numbers – swiss producer danny freakazoid has been doing the business now for the past 2 years, an ever present in the circles of toolroom, cr2 and big love, he applies some of his trademark studio wizardry keeping the mood a cool shade of dark whilst stripping loose the vocal. the final mix, is superbly constructed by the ever talented john dahlbäck, slick bumpin electro vibes work alongside the chopped up vocal perfectly, tailor-made stuff for the forthcoming seasonof mayhem…

cool crossover bomb by eyerer & chopstick here electronic dance music meets rock guitars includes a slamming christopher just remix

next sure-shot from the berlin boys plasmik – the success that these two brothers have already had with their first release >eight to nine< and their remix for ripperton is impressing. licensings for steve bugs fuse sampler, loco dices time warp mix and jamie jones get lost mix are just a selection of their current achievements. furthermore, they will release an exclusive track on crosstown rebels. the crowd and the djs love their style. inspired by us-techno cuts from the middle of the 90ies, they transfer and interpretation of this sound into today. with their newest release, they raised their understanding of dance music to a new level. pitch it is a dubby house track with pitched piano elements and a catchy hookline. this outstanding tune, which is already in heavy rotation, was licensed for claude vonstroke s mixmag mix.

l delay is all about the drama—but at the same time, its skipping hi-hats and ringing bells suggest a carefree spirit and a supreme lightness of touch. talk about a duality: a cloak of reverb sucks the track perennially towards the dark side, but from the gleeful syncopations to the cheekily sampled live instruments, everything else opens up to the light like a morning yoga position. there s no funny business here, just tight rhythms and emphatic phrases that command bodies to move. its a monster of a track, but it must be of the loch ness variety, because youll never see it coming. on the flip, >frost< —haunted by the same high, lonesome string note as >l delay<— might be even more energetic, if that s possible. the high end has been smoothed down, and some of the roughhewn chicago edge of its companion tune sanded smooth, but its crazily syncopated standup bass line and distant, answering keyboards is all muscle, tensed and ready to explode. spacious drum tracks clear the floor for flashes of tambourine and handclaps so dry you can taste the salt on em. again, no nonsense is the name of the game: just raw, unadulterated funk with an ear for playful rhythms and limber moves

dj support: karotte, josh wink, john selway, jeff samuel, chloe, laurent garnier, sebastien leger, sian (pokerflat), simon baker (infant).... just as klaus kinski once saw the jungle, minilogue see their sound as a multifaceted and highly fecund place whose nevertheless existing and complex matrix does not show itself in any apparent order. two new tracks on wir make their way through tight, slippy and steeply ascending paths, working to see the daylight in the befogged territory of the peruvian rain forest, or they ride on rapid amazonian rivers looking for el dorado, while unknown dangers lurk behind. bushwacking beats slap through the thicket, wandering on the trails of ancient cultures, not fearing any frazzle. minilogues trademark sound already overgrows the dance-floor, wriggles over sweaty walls, into the corners and beneath the turntables, and theres quite a chance to lose oneself in that labyrinth when not paying attention to where the exit once was

cobblestone jazz produce their tracks live, with a strong emphasis on improvisation, and the trio of programmer tyger dhula, keyboardists danuel tate and mathew jonson, make full use of their formative jazz training to transform the musical outfit into a pragmatic and responsive unit, a living and breathing creation, free of formulaic sequence. dmt is a particularly good example of this, progressing with a confidence and purposefulness that borders on sensual mastery. samples and trace sounds are revealed into the mix, weaving a hypnotic and infectious reverie that calculatingly refrains from climax. a display of power that is anything but vulgar, cobblestone arent showing us all their cards just yet. magic

redshapes profile is still rapidly growing. taken in mind it has been just over one year ago redshapes first ep was released on delsin - a lot of things have happened! nowadays weekly doing performances through europe, and two singles ending up in de:bugs 2006 chart. back to now, this new ep. steam comes in clonky and rough, as the track species on his last ep on redshapes own imprint present. light is a deeply beatless freaked synth excursion. the flip brings more hot stuff - starting with munch, a more detroited redshape as before! sounding as a lost 69 track, with its quircky chopped up breakbeats and whobbling synth bassline. plush at last brings in the otherworldy sounds inline of this ep on styrax. catchy business!!

i dont have much to say about the dahlbacks. jesper is one of my best friends, even though he is a serious pain in the ass. john made 6 records in the time it took you to read this sentence....and he just turned 11. every once in a while they take about 40minutes out of their hectic schedule (john stops making records...to make a record, while jesper take s a break from the grueling demands of being a condo association manager) to make a record for turbo. in all honesty i think they give me the tracks they forgot about..... cuz you know if they really loved them they would keep them for their own lame labels. so, instead i leave you with the music. 3 tracks that prove again that somehow, against all odds, when you put cousins in a studio they bring out the best in each other. jespers maverick genius and time-honed wisdom tempers johns youthful passion and naive exuberance.. while johns youngbrain redefines the game and reenergizes the old master. the two cousins locked in a dance that continually blurs the lines between student and teacher, a sonic sibling rivalry a musical match with one clear winner ....you!!
