the droids beamed down to planet earth in the year 1978. yves hayat aka droids, was a young label manager at the seminal french disco label barclay in the seventies. >star peace<, originally released in 1979 is his concept to the classic sci fi movie >star wars< out that year. featuring the french space synth classic >(do you have) the force<, in both parts, this lp goes from strength to strength with spaced out lullabys >inner space< & >tchough fou<, before kicking back into the groove with >be happy< an assault to the senses with its manic synth lines running riot over heavy funk overtones. the flip kicks off with >shanti dance< parts 1 & 2, sleezy robot-funk work outs that are inter-joined to make a 6 minute continually evolving piece of music. the closing eight-and-a-half- minute >renaissance de l amour< is a tour de force of cinematic synthscapes, bleeps, bloops and world rhythms, before dropping in the drums 6 minutes in to ignite any dancefloor. this is light years ahead of its time.

great follow up on van rivers original wood sequence track and some more new tracks on this ep.
a1 hanna sandviks >employ< provides a raw no-nonsens straight forward techno track.
while the a2 side peter van hoesens remix for the subliminal kids >upp/ner< (f001) gives us just the basics, some straight up fierce minimal techno for the club!
on the flip tobias von hofstens >fuktish< produces some energetic breakbeats that surely put any dancefloor on fire.
b2 is where it all started with van rivers >wood sequence< track given the remix treatment by dvs1 and still maintaining its original deep and dubby vibe with its mesmerising synth stabs and space chord echo fx, job well done!

we will get more stock on friday 21th of may !!! brand new ep from sigha on hotflush recordings, a producer who has made quite a name for himself since affiliating himself with the hotflush family. deep, intricate and atmospheric techno is sighas style and this has to be a collection of his strongest music to date. absolutely awesome ep, dont sleep on this

sidwho? last years ævote bowie for presidentÆ freaked out todd terje, tim sweeney invited him to do beats in space while prins thomas named it his favourite track of the year. in between recording and touring with the swiss and empire of the sun sid is back with another low slung disco weapon.

frigio presents >2084 the mixes< by ard2. featuring mixes by heinrich mueller (aka dopplereffekt, arpanet, etc) and labels founder juanpablo. this vinyl contains 3 songs from the original album >2084 the mixes< (also to be released on frigio) plus two remixes from the artists mentioned above. in terms of sound, you ll find an experimental project that touches the electro and idm rhythms including sampled voices that refer to selected paragraphs of the book.

anton price is a jazz drummer turned electronic producer and back again. he has his own space-time continuum in which age-old african rhythms co-exist more or less peacefully with signals from the future. where kid baltan plays chess with tom jenkinson, watching logan s run and drinking battery acid. the 12 inch contains 4 new tracks, while the 15 track cd album gives a retrospective on his works. great idea from this nice belgium label to release a 12 together with a full length cd for a super friendly price! limited availability - only 300 of these packages will be sold!

vol.2 with remixes from robag wruhme, reboot, martinez !! hailing from berlin norman weber and marco resmann released an album in autumn 2009 that can be easily called a success. this is why there were no problems at all to find an illustrious circle of remixers. jena-based robag wruhme already contributed one remix to matthias tanzmanns >bulldozer< in 2006. the old partnership was now revived and robag wruhme was asked for a reinterpretation of another moon harbour track. his version of >mr. jack< captivates you with its mix of funk and darkness and has an overwhelming effect on the dance floor

the mysterious twosome known as silver columns have already built up a cult fanbase with their first two limited edition, white label singles, >browbeaten< and >yes, and dance<, but with >cavalier<, their first >proper< release on the perennially tastemaking label moshi moshi, they are finally ready to go overground and take their rightful place in the pantheon of offbeat electro pop greats.

naming your first release after your band is an auspicious way to introduce oneself, to say the least, but birds & souls have done just that-and the results more than live up to their sensational packaging. birds & souls lead single >birds & souls< (from the debut birds & souls ep on spectral sound) is an exuberant track built more for rock shows than dancefloors, charting a journey from giddy, congas-and-claves house to synth-drenched space disco to ecstatic arpeggiated bliss and back again.

our man will sabatino aka sabo doesnt need too much introduction to those who know. his long running ep series is back as he continues to move away from the tropacalia vibe he used to be known for into a well rounded party vibe. this time we got deep cosmic disco remix of the radiohead tune >house of cards<, a beefed up edit of bow wow wows classic >i want candy< with extended intro and outro. on the flip theres some african space disco with lots of dubby elements and atmospheric break downs, plus amadou & mariams >artistiya<, with pumped up drums, subtle edits, and some smart delays to take this classic straight to the dancefloor.

der ausnahmeproduzent flying lotus legt nach seinem vielbeachteten debutalbum los angeles den nachfolger vor! auf cosmogramma weitet er das spektrum der integrierten stile in richtung space-jazz aus und lädt ein zu einem kosmischen trip voller unendlicher liebe und begeisterung für musik in all ihren variationen. mit musikern wie rave coltrane, einem weiteren sprössling der coltrane-famile, dem bass-virtuosen thundercat und den gastvokalisten thom yorke (radiohead) und laura darlington (siehe debut) gelingt ihm der aufstieg zu schwindelerregenden neuen kreativen höhen. mit cosmogramma belegt flying lotus eindrucksvoll, weshalb ihn die matriarchin der globalen bass music, mary-anne hobbs, als den >hendrix seiner generation< bezeichnet.

this scottish producer puts trapez ltd again on the techno map. after a couple of more housy releases on trapez ltd this release is a tougher one.&#8232,,circular star works techno a bit in a post detroit fashion... the sounds smells of industrial sites, burned rubber and has that certain sexy machine rhythm to it which we always felt was the jeff mills factor. they have little glamour about them, they are true and a direct force.

feat. exclusive unreleased remixes from a mountain of ones critically acclaimed long player >institute of joy< - on ltd edition white vinyl.

a welcome return for jaime read who has been releasing quality deep house and techno since the mid 90s via his own push ii shove label, tenth planet, fragmented and ugly music. here he drops a timeless ep of house and techno rythims to great effect. messages from outer space is a deep slice of timeless 808 driven electro soul. name no names moves along with spaced out keys and a sax line reverbed to great effect. no relief has that old school chicago house sound with piano stabs and a lush string breakdown. digital acid wraps it up sounding much like the title suggests with deep 808 bass and floor smashing snares

bron, a mysterious giant from the plains of canadas sub arctic region, comes out of nowhere with danksouls second release great white north. brons debut record is a truly northern take on the infectious grooves of micro house. the title track, great white north, is a jacked-up home grown classic that has been garnering a cult-like following in canada since its inception a couple years back. french avant-garde house producer le k provides a heavy handed remix, which will surely occupy a permanent space in record boxes and play lists across the globe. bron polishes off this ep with the bouncy beats and bass of splash back, followed by the soulful space hop of postcards from the prairies

pumpin like reeboks: an adrenaline soaked dose of pure nosebleed speed garage rave crossbred with dubsteps bassonics and 90s b-boy swagger. raffertie hits his stride with his most accessible & anthemic work to date. pounding 4x4 kicks bounce off cylon bass cannon blasts and crashing 808 claps battle rave sirens for dominance of the air space. clipped vocal edits and pinpricks of distorted noise are littered though out this blood pressure raising carnival ride as a constant reminder that this is party music with intellect.

deep,spacige trax s von martin accorsi..

ross alexander payne has always been interested in the earth and its relationship to all in its vicinity, this includes earths place within the universe, and the presence upon earth of both natural and manmade systems and processes. drift and expansion are tracks designed to represent a view of earth from space. it was previously believed that the earth was expanding and thus the continental land masses were moving as a result of this process. modern scientific evidence does not support this idea, and the theory of plate tectonics is now almost universally accepted. this ep represents a view of the idea of these two disparate theories as if taken from the direct space around earth. ross explains in his words >everything i do, be it music related or otherwise, is driven by this fascination with the universe around me, the quest to discover this universe and the desire to expand my knowledge of all within it<

great new output from england ... raw analog feeling between techno and house - special tipp .. ltd vinyl only release (400 copies worldwide) fantastic work from the livejam records gang

the one-two kick drum beat that starts “in the dark of the night” functions as a bit of a tease. instead of merely establishing the languid pace of the track, it has the power of suggestion, and its stark nakedness raises the question of what will happen after the music fully launches. a few seconds later, a punch-drunk, flanging keyboard is the first clue that the listener is in for an off-kilter ride, the sauntering bassline that next appears adds a springy, funk bounce. but it’s the tripped-out, multi-tracked vocals of fernando miranda rios, aka michoacan, the producer behind this slow reveal, that give the song its peculiar, space-yvibe. it’s like david byrne with funk aspirations and a vaguely cosmic feel. the b-side remix, courtesy of italy’s clap rules, feels like more of a re-build. the song has been taken apart and put back together with brand new parts. instead of more relaxed, dazed funk at the core, it’s a glittery, disco-ball splattered track with glossy keys all around.

big with: anthony collins, daniele papini, timo garcia, kaiserdisco, remerc, cristian varela, karotte, acquaviva, ante perry,... nicole moudaber, selected by cox & digweed for a guest mix in 2008 & 2009, and hand picked by carl for a slot next to him in space in 2009, the big boys have all got their ears pricked for what will come next. her releases have appeared on viva music, plastic city, arearemote, intacto, yellow tail .... she has remixed gorge (8bit) and adam sheridan among others. for the new ep on yellow tail she got together with smokin jo, her older production state of mind, was championed on radio 1 and released on distrakt records.

nice price deal !!! this is the 002 in typical ecce style but now he is telling an unbelievable story underscored by rollin and heavy basslines and futuristic sounds which reminds me of spaceships in epic battles. light years away from home...

slamming toddy terry remixes...

a little house in the deep blue sea: a perfect title for a tune, this track kicks off with a subtle, tribal groove, claps and deep chords then take the listener into the deepness. hypnotic, sweet and elegant music for the late night movers on the dancefloor. b1. thank you for listening: new york meets frankfurt on main with this tasty tech-house tune. a pounding bass drum combined with japanese vocal snippets, spooky strings and mills like percussion drive this tune on and into the peak time dancefloors. a must play for all lovers of the new school house movement. b2. for the moment: a slow mo tribal electro tune perfect for the morning after the night before. a tune made for all space night lovers and dreamers.

brilliant disco edits by sleazy mc queen!

nice price deal !!! expanding on the success of forward strategy group, label boss smear has fashioned the new minimalist outfit, retail & leisure, with a new addition of the fsg corporate family. retail & leisure is in many ways the polar opposite of fsg, ditching their trademark dense, heavy techno in favour of simplicity, space and a more systematic approach to composition. side a strips right down to the bare essentials, leaving little more than an ice-cold rhythm, bleep and hiss, creating a deep mix-tool for fans of artists such as mika vainio and sleeparchive. the b side features a remix by fsgs latest recruit adrian ross. mechanical scrapes and clangs mesh with deep, pressing kicks to create a sound which is dense and impenetrable. ross is a unique entity in techno: with a genuine outsiders take on the genre, he is an exciting prospect and a great asset to the group. the final track is r&ls take on dubstep, with dry, chalky percussion, discordant siren and churning bass. snares spin, shuffle and shatter against the tracks main, oppressive rhythms. the record ends with some valuable advice on where one should position ones feet

mike wall serves you real and deep prime time techno while staffan linzatti morphed these sounds in a great space journey. amazing record with two examples of the many interesting facettes that techno can have!

two spacey, synth heavy house tracks from ron trent. the power of sound has found its way to the southport weekender and marquest wyatts deep la. its full of vocoder and sound effects. space ship is a new track full of transcendental percussion and sweeping synth lines.

silver tears and early sept fuse disco elements with italo influences for a cosmic sound, we love so much!! remixes come from japans bocca grande and space ranger from germany!!

spacin futuristic detroit electro!!!

second part of the much talked-about universal consciousness series. on one side, stephen brown, the artist responsible for some of the best releases on derrick mays transmat label, makes his 2010 comeback with an uncompromising and stunningly beautiful piece of detroit techno. on the flipside, club lonely, a these days in-house production moniker for jam sessions that happened in the labels studio between friends, presents a tribute to n.y club shelter. the track focuses on a bassline driven groove in timmy regisford fashion while on the b2 the vocals are muted for those who would like to use the track as a tool. space techno meets n.y dancers. universal consciousness

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.

classic deep grooving tracks!!

exciting synth disco by roland sebastian faber. mr faber deivers some high quality timeless synth compositions as we heard from him before on this lovely cult label aube records! mr faber produced music for many wellknown pop arists and this is his personal fetish project that gives him the space to go crazy on his analogue synth collection and high end studio gear. comes with beautiful artwork of emi schultz (kraftwerk designer)... this is one of those releases that will not create a big stir among hype press and blogs... but most definitely it will make many people very happy! a great piece of electronic disco, 70s french synth pop. great artwork, limited edition of 300, high quality 180 grams vinyl! future collectors item!

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

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.
