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.

this is the 11th release from sui generiz (division of absolut freak records), a special one marking a new phase of the portuguese label. andy book comes with a very deep track with beautiful chords, vocal works and melodic sounds, which give a nice and smooth trip called >if you tried<. the outstanding and famous french producer alexkid - already signed on the best labels such as f communications, rekids or cadenza - offers a super interesting and cleverly made remix. brilliant minimalist work pushing the limits of the original mix even further. then, the finnish producer zentex, well-known for his works on traum, kickboxer or resopal, is back on sui generiz (after having signed the first reference called >blue<) with a stunning version. deep, solid and driving remix. just listen! last but not least, johnwaynes - the exciting duo coming from the same land as the label - brings some organic beats and a bright piano for a beautiful remix, not less sui generis work than they use to do. their very unique sound, already heard on compost, brique rouge or bloop, will make you dance all long.

following on from their last ep, the worldwide renowned mn2s quickly drop their next 12inch release – again allowing a sneaky peek into all the forthcoming goodies the label is planning over the next couple of months! big vocal numbers are definitely order of the day here, with tracks from soul avengerz, sofia rubina, danism & justin michael all once again proving just why the label is rightly regarded as one of the leading players in house music.

big with: sascha funke, osunlade, brothers vibe, paul woolford, dj yellow, lee curtiss, danny tenaglia, acumen, milton jackson, catz n dogz, sasse, john digweed, d julz, squillace, gabriel ananda, guy j, ...
for their first release in 2010, the infamous label kanzleramt will team up with suol for this split release called nip split : 01. as the 01 might already tell you, this isnt a one time thang ... this is just the beginning of a looooong relationship to come! on the kanzleramt side we find suol label owners chopstick & johnjon (true, its starting to get a bit complicated here) with the track infidelity that is already a sure shot in the recordbags of the suol and kanzleramt family. infidelity gives us a sneak peak on the guys background, with its sample based theme and the ruff programing. there might have been one or two hip hop parties that the two attended in the past. give this one a spin and the groove will show you, how much impact this lovely house tracker gonna have on the floors. on the flip side mr. kanzleramt himself aka heiko borrowed us his artist peter horrevorts for a dancefloor monster!

following the huge success of dark stars volume 3 from 2009 the excitement and anticipation for volume 4 has been enormous. the wait is over and noir music is now ready to give you an even more exclusive compilation of top-tracks from top-artists. no need for big words really ... just tune in and use your ears ... noir music presents dark stars volume 4.

after his recent releases on his own a.r.t. label, kirk has shown us that he is back in effect. this double a-sided 12 inch confirms just that! two solid techno tracks that both are steaming dance floor tracks, yet they both have a sophisticated, almost elegant touch. we are looking into the future with master kirk!

perc opens up the vertigo releases with his most singleminded track in years. based around a looping, lo-fi groove bcg is both a perfect dj tool and an unforgettable lead track. occasional blasts of distortion break up the rhythmic flow but this is no clichéd white noise soaked epic, just pure heads-down basement techno. first up to remix bcg is scotlands forward strategy group, who thanks to their releases on fsg and retail & leisure have soon won the support of such techno lynchpins as marcel dettmann and surgeon.

queen atom is back on serialism following on from the success of his recent >refuse greed< ep on dumb unit. blu samba confirms queen atoms talents to make dancefloors sashay to his beat and is strengthened with remixes from two highly rated artists who we welcome with open arms to serialism, ahmet sisman and seuil. coka zero has elaborate percussions and an elegant beat, while perlon-esque sounds melt right into the landscape, a beautiful master melody often wakes up bringing everything to a complete harmony. a driving groove with playful drum patterns and jazz elements really showcasing queen atoms production talents that have been demanding attention from his dumb unit releases and live performances around the world, most notably at watergate and city fox. fix ur mama is a very analog-sounding techno affair with that oscillating bass guiding the tune all the way through, with delicate percussions tempting and teasing us and filling all the interesting spaces. a deep track that forces us to move. coka zero gets remixed by ahmet sisman. as we all know, ahmet sisman brings a totally fresh and unrepenting take on all things house and techno! the groove in his remix is just a purely coherent rhythm, complemented by techy hihats and delayed vocals taking us deep and sexy breathy, fresh and groovy!. a track to cause serious damage! ahmets take will shake any building to its foundations with his unapologetic bomb! seuil then comes in with his own edit in his unique and elegant style that has been gathering followers from all corners of the globe. the drive and propulsive groove is there whilst he experiments with jazz keys off setting the original elements that are still in tact. as would be expected from this artist at the top of his game, his remix is sublime production with hints of romance, deep elements all playing around a beautiful groove. seuil bringing a masterful debut remix for serialism! a fabulous package from serialism!

robert hood presents two new tracks taken from his forthcoming concept album >omega<. this first single launches straight into the outstanding >alpha<. already, early plays from hood have provided an indication of just how huge this track will be!

d julzs bass culture records has undoubtedly been one of the major highlights of 2009. in just four releases the french label has set the bar for all others in terms of quality and 2010 is looking to be a groundbreaking year for them. the second release of 10 showcases the label head keeping it detroit, and a bit in the grey area - with the lov is easy release by anonym. anonym. the one who is anonymous. with releases on anonymous release, archipel, bloop, pariter, fof, and sushitech. anonym has also contributed the scoring soundtrack to works on display at the museum of moving images in nyc for pbfb. according to the man himself, i am anonym the one who is anonymous. i am anonymous because in any popular music form prone to be ransacked by the egos of its participants, a state of grace is best achieved and sustained by pursuing a life of anonymity. that preserves its creators from the warping stare of the media and its public in the process. his sound is tempered with grace & style, with a feeling of - detroit is my heart and often my songs sing her praises. i have known her all my life.

score another one for the dubline team. shadow law head honcho mayhem racks up a sick sick release here thatll tickle fancies all over the place... sensi is one thats loaded with sub.. and when we say loaded... we mean loaded... this is one of mayhems best bits yet! the spacious vibe and chest rattling sub is one to look out for. backed up with tristate and this 12 just gets better and better. another subbass rattler but with some hidden wobbles aswell! one of mayhems best dubstep bits to date!

when casting a weary eye towards the impending chill of winter, its important to remember that the choice of company kept can greatly affect the way in which one wiles away the long gray hours. in this case, we didnt even need to look further than our own backyard. enter deep techno masons, donor/truss. made up of greg schappert of brooklyn and tom russell of wales, their collective efforts have seeped into the consciousness of world class djs, producers and fans of uncompromising techno music through releases on synewave, miniscule, dilek, and dumb unit. with this, their first ep on thema, they have begun expanding their signature sound. the heady claustrophobia we’ve come to know and love has opened up just enough, spurring a graceful and startling evolution. we also would like to say that we re very happy that themas first release for the year 2010 is, in part, from local nyc based talent. mr schappert has been a big supporter of this label for quite sometime and to have him and tom step onboard is just about the best way we can think of to start the new year. the future is here, welcome 2010!

the motor, the city and soul do return to one of the longest running deephouse labels on the planet. with almost 40 releases and still kicking and keeping vinyl alive this release is no exception. matthias vogt & c-rock join forces again and the two present a heavy loaded package of deep house. with sascha dive and jay shepheard we got two men of the moment to remix -cipher- and all four mixes turned out to be just amazing. sascha dives remix is built on driving beats and develops big time floor potential. vogt re-arranged cipher into an epic musical master piece that incorporates his piano skills. stir15 label head c-rock strips the whole thing down to a deep and tripped out dub and jay shepheard follows his last releases and deivers a stellar deep tech-house groover. a box full of house in different blends. after satoshi tomiees -back to basics- this is another amazing release that already made big waves housefloors around

lil tony is hotter than hot. while starting to dj and produce years ago, tony has been a staple in the scandinavian club scene since the early 90s. an amazing dj (actually one of the favourites around the moodmusic hq) and a talented producer, tony started with the fbi project with roberto rodriguez and kimmo oksanen before dropping some serious damage on raw trax vol. 1 last year on moodmusic. caned by everyone from luciano (he edited his own version of semble) to dj hell, tonys raw grooves cut the crap and moved people when other producers had to take a leak. hardworking, never forgetting his gentleman manners, tony is here to stay and raw trax vol. 2 is a bold new statement, and his best work to date. solid state takes the classic detroit influenced drum machine vs piano theme a step forward, a impeccable jam of 15 minutes with the beat keeping the pace, this has been roadproofed the last 6 months to good effect. the b-side karamba is a dry, tight driven tech-workout, perfect mixtool for the deeper techno as well as housier sets. it just works well. the closing checkpoint charlie is a tale of >lost in helsinki< – dark mean bass wanders around and gives space for the chuggin main line, monotonic body music at its best.

another 90s davidson ospina classic!

played and support by brothers vibe, gorge, mendo, acumen, nick curly, felipe venegas, jackspot, ptoile, monoroom, martin eyerer, someone else and many more. his successful releases and remixes were published on labels like kiddaz fm, spinclub, cecille, 8 bit, session deluxe or glückskind. his tracks got remixed by world famous artists like marek hemmann, billy dalessandro, nick curly, chris liebing or tom pooks!! first move is helmuts typical fragile minimal tech-house funk. a sweet lullaby with mantra like vocals thats too minimal to be tech house and far too funky and sexy to be minimal. and helmut is never satisfied with doing things like all the other producer around do it right now - he is always looking for the little things thats different - so expect a surprise or two if you are listening carefully. cut b1 is so typical for helmut again you would know without any doubt where these funky track comes from. reminding of his old classic dub la chord or his yellow tail release this is his typical cleaned up tech house with his own vocal snippets you just cant get enough of.

what better way to start 2010 then with a brand new 10 inch of the highest caliber talents the netherlands has seen to date! after 2562 & martyn it will be up to evs & tmsv to represent the dutch on the dubstep tip!
evs hails from rotterdam.. the subway capital of holland.. by staying unaffected by the jump up or dancefloor style dubstep has adopted in the past few years it shows that evs has concocted his very own style.. a mixture of idm, trip hop and even dnb perfectly rolled into 1 production.. dt08.
the flip holds utrecht talent tmsv. a guy who you will hear alot more about. his dmz infused sound is one to watch for the future as he allready has gained the support of people like distance & mala... check subconscious brain for when you want to transport yourself back to the past when dubstep just raised its head!

musst have classics!!

if you thought that any of the previous mixes of this banger were good be prepared to be blown away with just how good this is. proper deep house with that shlomi twist just making it that much better. slammin!

isrs partymonster returns with another slamming 4 tracker destined to be a favourite among djs and fans alike. tymon is in a league of his own as one of the front runners in the new wave of hardcore industrialists and just mixed one of the cds on the thunderdome compilation.

encer kincy was giant in chicagos house music revival - part of the second wave of younger djs and producers that took the music of the early 1980s, rubbed it up and dropped it in places like 500 west cermak, medusa’s and the vault. a lot of people who are now superstars of the scene - mark farina, sneak, derrick carter, and dozens of others - were a part of that movement, too. spencer released a number of tracks on relief, planet e, cajual, peace frog - labels representing the classics of that era - and he usually recorded under the name gemini. as a dj, he operated in his own space - i’m sure he could play for a room, and sometimes did, but the unrestrained madness of a spencer kincy dj set had to be heard over several hours to appreciate. he could blend a sleazy disco track into hard acid, downtempo into a punishing armani track, jazz into detroit techno and so on. it wasn’t technically brilliant or tricky, but the selection was exquisite. a number of figures from his era still list him as an influence. his productions, viewed as a whole, are so much like his sets: going softer than many dared to go, and going much harder than just about any dared to go. simple jack tracks! respected by the standards of the industry of the time, and you certainly couldn’t go anywhere in chicago without hearing derrick, sneak, mark, lego, gene, jevon, diz, johnny or the other djs beating them. and so many of them have a timelessness - a little piece of eternity stuck like some bit of wax between the grooves

fantastic black cock remixes, just deep , psychedelic and still cosmic / disco

return to form (take that, haters!) hits at the body repeatedly, slamming away with a lack of abandon and a new sense of protocol. major stars are known for being psychedelic rock journeymen (and journey lovin women), but of late, their rocks psych roots seem to be dyed platinum white, with a truckers cap shoved on top of the whole mess. its jukebox ready hard rock with a hallucinogenic edge, sure ? or perhaps its just the impact of their triple guitar git down, causing your head to throb with concussive force? dont worry, long time star children ? these guys still jam, but they ve got short numbers too, and wailing, roadhouse vocals sailing over the punch ups. a terrific variety, but a return to form? pffft! what form? these guys have been in plasma state forever! whatever form it takes, thats what it is. and major stars are presently shining on in white dwarf style ? compacted, but with a violent gleam.

grant nelsons mighty swing city rightly has a reputation in the industry for releasing nothing but the finest house music – since its inception in 95, swing city has been a benchmark label for many of todays leading producers to aim for, with its distinct mix of vocal, dubby & just downright awesome tracks. their first vinyl release of 2010 offers a rare peek into some of their unreleased classics – never seen before, and featuring remixes from jazz n groove, warren clarke and of course grant himself.

new monaberry top stars hanne and lore celebrate their debut on style rockets. and their sound is just made for our steinberg influenced wonky fidget tech house releases. former releases have been supported by artists like nick curly, sebastien leger, marco carola, ricardo villalobos, oxia, timo maas, martin eyerer, format b, daniel steinberg or basti grub. this is another funky craziness with funny western guitar sounds and bits and pieces from about every western flick you should have ever seen. bonanza beat bamuble is a straight and funky groover and peaktime highlight of dj emersons sets right now.

another fine selection from the space dust disco classics crew!

berlins techno urgestein jonzon, zusammen mit cosmic baby ein teil der legende hinter vein melter, sowie viel umjubelter held hundertfach durchfeierter ufo, planet und tresor nächte, reüssiert jetzt in zusammenarbeit mit dem studiopartner sven brede über >reflections of my mind< #1.0 nach >hypnotized<, >sequential polka< und >cardiological stomp< mit einem erneuten höhepunkt seines schaffens. markenzeichen sind dabei wiederum unzählige, urbane soundsignale, die beide dem direkten umfeld der techno metropole an der spree entnehmen und dabei zu einem frischen, hochenergetischen, über die gesamte distanz ihrer spieldauer mehr als funktionalen body-trackwerk verdichten.

toolbox is gideons third album, in the line of many to come. although the minimal hype has surpassed this is minimalism from a techno point of view. no bullshit sounds, just straight up minimalistic techno grooves. inspired by guys like richie hawtin and robert hood, gideon has twisted this knowledge into something of his own. very different from his last album on kanzleramt called >need no permission<, this album focuses on tool tracks. and that is off course the title explanation. toolbox is an 8 track album in the line of gideon his first minimalplus release trias politica. 8 pure danceable tool tracks that a fit for any techno minded dance floor. toolbox will be released on 2 separate 12 inch records minimalplus 010 and minimalplus 011 each containing 4 songs.
