the man whos seen it all, thats terranovas fetisch, but he had it coming. as punks earliest and certainly youngest adopter, he strolled through late 1970s berlin, then moved to new york researching the first symptoms of hip hop, only to find himself being a many clubs resident dj in london at the end of the eighties. enters terranova, shrouded in mystery from the very beginning, fetisch‘s go-to project, that he originally conceived in 1996 to explore new club territory, and that has since built its very own cult following. kompakt truly feels honored to be the new home to an artist with such a rich background in club culture, especially as terranovas latest incarnation includes berlins house staple and boywonder &me as well as guest singer khan in his preferred role as the longest running hype in the history of underground awesomeness. consequently, it is with great poise that the trio‘s latest 12inch >so strong< commands its army of listeners to the floor, not unlike terranovas first outing on kompakt, the confidently named i want to go out. both the title track and epic flipside boogie for the dollar make up for a double headliner that takes you on a beguiling trip to the dark side of the club. no only do terranovas sequencing and beat programming deliver in spades, the package also sports some of the best vocals khan has churned out to date, featuring his trademark fusion of cool indifference and pure sleaze: >i give myself up to your splendor... so strong.<

numan khan from manchester is a new artist for planet mu with an original musical style that mixes dubstep and grime influences with an idiosyncratic take on rhythm to great effect.
this four track ep showcases his styles from the a side with the lush melodic accordian and snes melodies of >race against time<, to the slower, disco influenced >photograph<.
the b side starts with >voodoo<, which combines grimey bass and strings with offbeat drums to odd, driving effect and finishes with >xx< which sounds like a long lost golden era 8-bit grime instrumental but with deft production tweaks and fx that keep it interesting and effective.

summer killer tune! big with tiefschwarz, shir khan, matt walsh, turmspringer. as a record label klasse recordings acknowledge and develop the ideas between racing, electronic music and the man vs machine relationship. the concept of artist and founder luca lozano and agent daniel zedelmair, klasse holds up the classic spoked wheel design of a racing bike as a symbol of strength and unity which contrasts with the disposable doses of instantaneous gratification found on electronic music blogs and in so many discotheques that they have encountered on their travels. located within, but not constricted by, the genres of modern house and techno, klasse aims to evoke the depth and narrative of themes such as travel, movement and repetition, fusing the rich sounds of traditional wind and string instruments with the accuracy of synthesisers and drum machines.

the locke saints band was a high school band from watts califorinia led by reggie andrews. also known as the msingi workshop, the locke saints band created deep jazz/funk and modern soul. similar to kashmere stage band, there is an energy and mood to the music that is raw yet focused. everlasting love blends soul and funk nicely with an incredible vocal performance, originally recorded by rufus and chaka khan. this 7 inch is limited to 300 copies only!

mufo has garnered attention a few years ago with his c.l.a.u.d.i.a. 12-inch for kompakts k2 imprint, and sounds set to do so again with colors. anything but monochromatic, >one color< opens with stripped-down, tech-house swing before adding shuffling pulses and melodic accents that are both jittery and robotic. working itself up to a skittish, metronomic broil, the track exudes an android relentlessness that?s offset by repeated change-ups. on the b-side, di francesco brings the funk on >two colors<, six minutes of swizzling electro-techno whose palette is anything but muted. the tune squawks and sputters like some incessantly sneezing synthesizer apparatus in what could pass for a fractured 23rd-century techno take on zydeco. with this release in hands, its again proven without a doubt, that persistencebit continues the global hunt for quality. supported by: robert leiner (www.leinermedia.net): >good use of the korg wavestation on both< andrew duke (andrew duke in the mix radio brodcast since 1987): >excellent my favourite track is one color< ryaz khan (ww.chry.fm / myspace.com/diversionsradioshow): >solid release i love both cuts<xpansul (minus,plus 8 records): >two colors is great. thanks.<

with frankly amazing singles on his own glimpse recordings and matt tolfreys leftroom earlier this year, 2007 is shaping up to be one hell of a year fro christopher spero aka house/techno prodigy glimpse. here, he delivers his debut for the uk-based bastion of quality that is four:twenty with a superb collaboration with critically acclaimed taka boom (sister of chaka khan) in the form of we existed. another great uk talent, tom demac is first to remix we existed and does so in fine style. its plain to see why so many labels of note are requesting releases from tom on first listen to his skilful, deep and dubby excursion into detroit inspired house. jay shepheard, not to be outdone, turns in two remixes for the package. his alternative remix is up first and is a driving affair with a percussive punch and nagging fm chords providing the perfect base for takas vocals and some well placed keys. the main rmx from compost man shepheard carries on the mantle of quality with a decidedly more electronic and epic feel: a shrinking violet this is not

big with dj hell, tomboy, shir khan (radio fritz). terranova recordings (tnt) would like to introduce rampa (from the house of beatgees) - our youngest signing. >grill royal e.p.< - his debut on vinyl is a fine example of what he calls >berlin booty rave<! we first took notice of rampa while pogodancing to his legendary dj sets at berlins number one underground club >picknick< - and when we heard the firing remix he did for jay-z it was decided we wanted him on board!

this selection is based on over two decades of deep dj experiences. the impact of seeing jazz dancer, michael knot of idj, dancing to acid trax by phuture, in the back room of a pub in teddington, produced one of those seminal moments that, gilles maintains, radically changed his view of acid house. it is important to say that this is certainly not a club album as some of the predecessors in this series have been.
