see the light opens with a classic-in-waiting, the behemoth of a single, >white horse<, that forces you to move like a witch doctor would. >champagne bubbles< is the kind of gritty r&b that isnt afraid to be as angry as it is melancholic, its piano flourishes punctuated with a heavy kick and snare. >prisoner of love<, which bridges electro and freestyle, featuring a soaring vocal melody that finds nomi and guest vocalist antony weaving their voices around each other to a stunning effect.

having finished recording the new zombie zombie album (out: april 2012), etienne jaumet leaves temporarily the duo to record a solo piece, as a need to find oneself again … if the word satori means spiritual awakening, the title track that offers etienne seems to describe the way to this awakening … a winding and sometimes dark path, taking inspiration from both dark disco and synth wave (etienne is particularly keen of those genres, you can listen to his new podcast for versatile records as an evidence) and also to some kind of trance… on b side, jon convex, newcomer on the dubstep / uk garage field and signed on martyns label, delivers a clearly club oriented version, by injecting syncopated beat and the funky groove unique to uk garage.

pole recordings reaches its number 10 release, a work by oscar mulero. for this record, oscar has chosen to go for a more mental and elaborate kind of techno, lowering the bpms and softening his sound.

hiding behind their three character website is a belgian duo called goldffinch whose steep vision of dancefloor techno marries loveable little phrases of awkward computer conversation with the kind of kick drums that will rattle the windows of your neighbours house when your soundsystem is tweaked perfectly. goldffinch may well be a duo bent on keeping things simple but when the end result, which is built out of such minimal layers, is so arresting, there’s no need to change the formula. not one bit.

as one of the founding talents of james ruskins continuing blueprint records empire or richard polson and nick duntons seminal surface records, we at thema dont really think we need to remind you who oliver ho is. since 1996 he has released a steady stream of high quality, stylistically diverse, and highly dependable records on blueprint, his own meta, light and dark imprints, and such leading labels as klang electronik, macro, and poker flat that bridge the gaps between techno, tech-house, and deep exploration and always keep djs like us reaching for them when we need that not-quite-ordinary thing that keeps people moving.

the rapidly evolving scene thats happening out in russia allows for the kind of collaboration between artists of highly different fields, as is the case here. arram mantana, tripmastaz and roustam are three producers of different ilk, who have joined in this special case for their debut ep out on souvenir records

this time its xdb delivering the goodies for dolly, as always pushing the boundaries between house and deep techno. with this 4 excellent cuts xdb is taking the label in even deeper territories. even though they are very well playable and will easily rock the floor, taking it up to somewhere between jupiter & mars, xdbs tracks are more than just proper dj-tools. so well-crafted, deep, harsh and hypnotising, but always firmly keeping floor contact with minimal yet funky drum programming, exactly as this kind of music should be. to top things of, brooks mosher on remix duties delivers a detroit inspired remix of sunda. big!

here comes the second part of french team lowkey & kardinals electrovino series!
the first part is nicely rockin the floors around the globe and found its way into many cases (or better said file-lists) of many djs from small to big! the second part follows the path with another rocker called oroborus (the name taken from an ancient greek tale of a dragon eating his own tail !) with a kind of tech-housy but techno bangin feel to it, bringing back the old casio organ sound. followed by two versions of indian summer, one in its more smoother original version and the second in a very nice prime time techno version by kardinal himself!

amazing john mayer trio live album. with steve jordan and pino palladino live in concert. 180 gramm audiophile vinyl pressing.

producer oliver ho aka raudive is not a dark horse. two years after his acclaimed abc ep he returns to rrygular with his new release >love is the devil<. straight and facing forward but also back to the roots somehow. that doesnt need to be a compromise. it is a symbiosis that works absolutely fine in case of this particular 2-tracker. like always the englishman knows how to use percussion elements without getting cheesy. a certain reference to electro is obvious but it underlines the typical dirty raudive sound rather than trying to be referential. but who needs genres anyway? club-disco-techno-house-funk-electro - some kind of monster!

radioactive orchestra is an attempt to interpret gamma radiation, which has its origin in the nuclei of atoms, and translate it into sounds and music. gamma radiation consists of photons and is, in essence, the same kind of radiation as light and radio waves - electromagnetic radiation - but with a very high energy level. in collaboration with nuclear physicists bo cederwall and torbjörn bäck, music producer axel boman and media artist kristofer hagbard have created musical algorithms based on the scientists models of how radiation is emitted from various isotopes. the resulting output of melodies and sounds have been arranged into the following musical experiments. limited to 200 copies!

kill the pain: epic is the only way to describe the extended intro of kill the pain, featuring acoustic guitar and an earnest male vocal. then, just before two minutes in, things quickly take a nasty turn as choppy breaks splinter into pieces and the bassline reboots the texas chainsaw massacre. an aggressive, genre bending, sure fire floor smasher.
letting go: teaming up with kryteria for the flip, a eurphoric, trancey intro leads into a chainsaw reece, setting the scene for the chaotic chiaroscuro to come: beyond the drop sweeping synths and ethereal vocal snippets somehow successfully coalesce with heavily edited breaks and sawing bass, creating a kind of beautiful violence. subsequently, side effects of letting go include spontaneous eruptions of feet on the floor and hands in the air.

breaking onto the scene via a series of anonymous 12inch, it was after garnering reverence as a big name producer in disguise that cottam was unveiled to be the humble newcomer paul cottam. rising through the early rave scene in his hometown of preston, he first cut his teeth as a dj warming up for the likes of surgeon, dave clarke and regis. despite his techno upbringing, it was the slo-mo tempos of mark e and the revenge that inspired cottam to produce his own brand of dusty soul and hip hop-grounded house. however, in april cottam returned to his roots with >sunrise sunset< on use of weapons, sinking a rave core down to his signature slung bpm. it is a journey into sub-aquatic acid house that began with a series of remixes for luv jam, pattern select and morning factory, and one that he continues to explore on his aus music debut. aptly titled >deep deep down< sculpts the feeling of acid techno into warm slo-mo house. ukrainian producer vakula takes the track off on another tangent entirely, stripping away its propulsive chugging heartbeat and replacing it with an off-kilter, spaced-out pulse reminiscent of theo parrish when he s in that kind groove. on the flip, >twang< is a return to cottam s brand of languid, soulful house, steeped with groove destined to incite the dancefloor shuffle.

something - a raw & pure monster of a track is not wasting any time for shifting layers or building up loads of unnecessary things. once the needle scratches the surface of the record > something< immediately unfolds its strength and power. thus, the suddenly emerging voice sample that sounds kind of scary easily creates an atmosphere like being morphed into a party of ghosts and dungeons going nuts while listening to this ultraphat hypnotic techno-tune from berlin. this track guarantees the full amount of peak time pleasure and sweaty walls inside the top clubs around the globe within the next months. for the flip-side freakshows 24th release delivers a very special remix version which does not need to hide behind the original. techno music veteran literon is contributing his creativity and production skills that he has been developing since he entered the scene almost 2 decades ago

living it out – perhaps the most unabashedly danceable song on janine planningtorock rostrons dfa debut album w – comes on (that is to say, seduces) in just the right ways. the song is all addictive disco, with synthesized string skitterings and rostrons voice purring out (she sounds like a futuristic eartha kitt here) a perfect melody that somehow gets even better at the chorus. its pure pleasure upsurge from beat-driven start to pizzicatto end, the kind of song that lets you know that, amidst rostrons many musical idiosyncracies, included is the ability to write a song that simply drags you out onto the dancefloor.

heavy austrian dub mechanics from group niob aka phlox conspirators gerhard potuznik and martin sovinz. this is their 2nd release to date, a dedicated follow up to last years >vector ep<. opening track nexus takes dubtechno one step further down the road to the lowlands. it manages to keep the atmosphere dread and melancholy but balanced with light skipping percussion and whispering snippets over a four to the floor beat, creating an uniqe kind of bass music. second tune aldo glows with warm chords over thick and dreamy rhythms, rendered in spacious minimalist dub style. side two starts with a vocal drenched acid-rework of nexus by no other than tin man. the words >doesnt matter who your are< will settle down deep in your subconsciousness and refuse to leave for some time. already an anthem and that kind of tune that should not be missed on future dancefloors. the ep ends with a fierce and forward shifting, floor shaking nexus-rework by londons bass cadetts dark arx

the tribute series continues its search for those essential balearic dj gems with number 5 in the series.
familiar inspiration is given a fresh twist through some tender love and care (rumoured to be the work of leftside wobble), bringing it alive again and ready for those special dance floor moments. cut loud on single-sided heavy vinyl, you can enjoy it on the beach, in the basement, or on any kind of dance floor.

while the first release on wania, busen & paleos >stream of love< (featuring dj sotofetts anthemic overdub-12inchedit) was a rather leftfield affair, dritfett is aimed more directly towards the dancefloor. the label artwork gives a clear clue as to what this release is all about: amongst a number of cryptic messages and shout-outs in norwegian - a tr-909 logo. all the tracks here are based around the 909 - thunderous kickdrums and sharp, hissing hi-hats that cut through the mix. still, theres a broad range of sounds, from head-down, fists-clenched warehouse workouts with an industrial edge, to more melodic tracks with detroit references aplenty. make no mistake though: this is all about the power of the almighty 909. theres no fancy tricks here‚ no ableton-trickery or polished waveforms, just good honest techno with a real raw live feel. this gives the tracks the energy and spontaneity that is sorely missed in many of todays productions. the kind of energy you will find - in abundance - in the house and techno releases of the 90s. the kind of energy that can only be achieved by pressing play on a machine, frenetically twisting knobs and punching buttons while letting the energy of the room decide where to go next.

finding the new matter is reekos new album, second in his career after submitted to involuntary treatment, published in 2004 by the british label inceptive.more than ten 12inches for the best techno labels around, led up to the release of this new and eagerly awaited album by the spanish producer. his mastery of digital tools and excellent sonic capabilities is made evident by this intricate work, which runs from environmental experiments, through deep and scientific techno, to sounds of an industrial and raw kind: his specialty for years.the album begins with the beginning , a small track that serves as an atmospheric intro in which the digital textures and pads are the main ingredients, starring in one of the few melodic moments on the album.movement starts with strange beings , repetitive synth strings, sine waves and rhythms that start to generate the tension needed in order to enjoy the album. an abstract track with a space flavour, in line with the best standards-bearers of scientific techno

the third release on the world unknown label is a very meaty affair that coincides with the second birthday of the club night in brixton. on side w timothy j. fairplay fuses ancient egypt with late 80s belgium and drops it slap bang into the near future with the monolithic techno beast that is >cleopatra loves the acid<. its already been played in discos and on the bbc by andrew weatherall, for whom tim handles engineering and co-production duties in his day job, and is set to become a pounding anthem on the more adventurous dancefloors over the coming months. side u is a more throbbing psychedelic affair. kalidasa is the production alter-ego of tim rivers who runs the always excellent theacidhouse.com website. it<s exactly the kind of heavyweight midtempo tune that causes sweaty pandemonium at world unknown. if the word balearic still meant now what it did to from 87-92 then thats precisely what youd call this, most likely with the prefix >heavy<. but it doesnt so you cant, or can you?

gethigh is a new track release from laid back. the lyrics may instantly lead your mind onto thinking of cannabis but try to think about it in a broader context, in a more universal way. we all want to get high whatever we do in life, in all walks of life, in spirits, sports, politics, showbusiness, all kind of business, in school and education and not to forget love. musically the groove is kept in the recognizable family of the horse, with an updated twist. actually the song was born in key of major, as a more rock guitar riff kinda song included in the package. also included is an ultra minimalistic version, mainly made on ipad. danish electronic musician and dj kasper bjørke has done a really cool remix. finally we made a space mix, mainly for our own pleasure and for those who like to get out there and more into it. a video is in the final editing stage, following the style of beautiful day and cocaine cool, with self made animation. music is more than a trendy sound and a fancy look. laid back is always going for something personal, original and timeless. copenhagen, september 2011.

there is a certain dynamic that emerges whenever andre galluzzi and dana ruh pair up to create a record. with last year s >freya / mauersegler< split ep on ostgut ton, the two have already hit up some of the most prestigious labels in the electronic music landscape. tracks that are upbeat, driving, and, most of all, fresh have characterized their co-productions, which now have aras as a home. taking its cues from their label nights at berlin s panorama bar, galluzzi and ruh have solidified aras into an imprint based around expanding upon the creative energy that both share. their first release, >trambolla<, harmonizes each artist s approach into a grooving whirlwind that showcases their ability as producers as well as live musicians.starting off with the title track >trambolla<, the ep begins with tribal beats and infectious arrangements that seamlessly build upon each other along the course of the a-side. grooving from the start, it is the kind of track where the listener or the dj gets into the vibe right away. the percussion of >trambolla< especially stands out amongst the latin-tinged bongos, hi-hats, and hand claps that interchangeably come in and out of the track, a journey of its own at 9 minutes. >thelema<, the b-side, contrasts with the lightness of the a-side and demonstrates galluzzi and ruh s equal comfort in creating darker and heavily pounding tracks. the ten minute track grows out of a simple beat and growls ever louder as it takes in more intensity with its cascade of filters, delays, and booming bass. aside from the hard edge of >thelema<, it also provides a preview into the live set that the two artists are about to debut together.

love it or leave it. stl has done it again. another four tracker of raw electronic beats and mind rumbling grooves. jacking house tracks composed on analog hardware, executed without any static computer arrangements, to keep the true spirit and feeling of each session alive. these sounds are like mad colourful old school gaming, taking the listener on adventures to head, feet and soul in all it s full maniac beauty. number 17 of the something vinyl series is another lovely manifest of an artist mind picture which is not easy to categorysize. surely it won t fit in any style and ear, but those who are already sold to stl s lo-fi kind of sounds will get another dope piece of vinyl in order to make them dance and listen. sweet transmissions from a universe dominated by sound. pressed on a handsome 12inch in very limited quantities !

!!!mixmags tune of the month 5/5!!!
bot ox guys, cosmo vitelli and julien briffaz, perfect pair of its kind, return where they somehow belong: the dancefloor of a club. their remixes for other artists - logo, aladdin and even the unexpected toxic avenger - showed their soft spot for dancing, lately. this pair of tracks brings something special as they feature the foremost poets for the vocal part.. a figure of the underground dance music wall of fame, the foremost poets aka johnny dangerous is also a voice that techno and deep house lovers keep in a corner of their imagination: >i ll beat that bitch with a bat<, >reasons to be dismal<, >moonraker<, >pressin on<.... two versions of >perfect pair< are proposed along the most classical standards: an >original< one and a >dub< 13-minutes one. each of them have their own progressive, undated flavor

mysterious newcomer jamie blanco displays a clear skill in assembling the kind of raw, atmospheric late 80’s chicago house so close to our hearts - the kind of late night jams which can just as easily roll in and out of string drenched disco cuts as they can moments of strobe-lit intensity. beautifully executed, and another sureshot from cynic!

chicagos ricardo miranda makes his debut for the ace stilove4music label, maintaining a fine year in which he has already dropped some serious heat on rush hour sub-label hour house is your rush and his own noble square imprint. title track >102point7< is all jagged synths, throbbing arpeggios, slashing claps and a rolling acid groove, marking it out as one of his most incendiary productions to date. on the flip >rotary cells< is deeper still, a 909-led jacker with undulating layers of sub bass augmented by a wonderfully woozy vocal which extols the virtues of true chicago house. this is followed by >greenline<, a stripped back jam with scuttling hats and the kind of paranoid synth melody that wouldnt sound out of place in jeff mills something in the sky series. this is dark, raw, pulsating dance music - highly recommended.

there are still around, real environmentalists for whom the term preservation means more than just a trend. paul-david rollmann alias even-tuell belongs with his artistic productions (among other things, one of the creators of the enthusiast label workshop) to the class of those who answer the call for effective art, design and indulgence. the maxim is always the free will, emancipated from szperfluous market mechanics and the falsehoods of the zeitgeist. for musik krause, his activity is recorded on 2 releases. a split with metaboman and a formidable remix for ian simmonds adorn the catalog. with his quasi-first complete musik krause ep he shows a raw and coarse club music sound without losing even a breath of the aesthetic and compelled movement. all three pieces sound as if they were crafted from centuries old tools, in the way that his music is filtered through the machines humanizedm discharged in a kind of essential honesty.

we are very happy to welcome aboard pickpocket!
after releasing the incredible >abah dabah dis< on ppflimited last year, yse returns with a full ep of amazing tracks!
kicking off with slow joe, a beautfully crafted european disco number, which has made a big impact with the balearic contingent lucky enough to have gotten a promo.
on the flip harmonious discord marries a super catchy vocal refrain with some sumptuous mid-tempo house, a delightfully blissed out sunset track if ever we heard one!
finally alpha omega is a massive reggae rewire - the kind of seriously bumping party wrecker mr scruff would be proud of!
300 copies limited edition - vinyl only!

marcel fengler launches his own label – imf (index marcel fengler) with a rich, experimental and varied 3 track ep. through his numerous releases for ostgut ton and mote- evolver, or remixes for artists like skudge or perc, fengler has built his own distinct modern techno sound. introducing the ep , setting the tone and announcing its intentions, >knavish< is a thick, textural and spacious piece of sound design that careers across the audio spectrum with stunning fluidity. like a seductive opening chapter, it draws us in, yet leaves much for our burning curiosity to discover. moving on further off-centre, the churning ten minute adventure of >hidden empire< begins its rumbling ascent in the paranoid depths of fenglers more subversive electronic language. fusing the attitude of punk with the metallic ring of industry, its lively synth play and heavy forward stomp make this a challenging and indeed rewarding find. featured on his new >berghain 05< mix, >sphinx< takes a straighter path into the kind of sensory techno that marcel is well known for presenting on the berghain floor. funky, playfully aggressive, heavily defined and certainly cosmic, a concerto of outer-space tones, static and filtered waves join the racing percussion in tense unison

the sixth release on the excellent parisian imprint my love is underground comes from inner sense - aka french producer henri fontaine - who serves up only his second ever solo release (his first was back in 2006!) sprawled across the a-side you will find >lowdown<, a jam that brings to mind the output of new york house dons masters at work (indeed look closely at the centre of this record and you will see the totally appropriate inscribing >1993 forever<). swirling chords combine with a thumping kick, stuttering keys and, of course, a killer vocal wail for a slice of what can only be described as proper house music. >wanna dub with u< opens proceedings on the flip with the kind of thumping bass drum and funk-infused skipping hats that would make it a snug fit in the kerri chandler back catalogue and, again, the vocals are absolutely gorgeous. finally, >rawllin< wraps up the ep on a more stripped back yet equally groovy tip. limited to 500 copies on rather fetching 180g orange vinyl - essential.

>living it out< – perhaps the most unabashedly danceable song on janine >planningtorock< rostrons dfa debut album w – comes on (that is to say, seduces) in just the right ways. the song is all addictive disco, with synthesized string skitterings and rostrons voice purring out (she sounds like a futuristic eartha kitt here) a perfect melody that somehow gets even better at the chorus. its pure pleasure upsurge from beat-driven start to pizzicatto end, the kind of song that lets you know that, amidst rostrons many musical idiosyncracies, included is the ability to write a song that simply drags you out onto the dancefloor

our favorite usa artist >strategy< finally returned with two excellent alternative house tracks!! a side, >the fixer<is unique mixture of dubby house and kind of italo disco sound. if you like the music of caribous daphni or four tet, you will like this song. b side, >another rain< is like a kraut rock oriented house meets thomas fehlmann. its for the fan of four tet or prins thomas or lo soul.

the black void of space ep 00/2 is the second 12 inch from resoes debut album. it consists of two tracks from the album and a remix by no other than don williams of mojuba / wandering & a.r.t.less records. nachhall is a atmospheric track, but still aimed for the floor. the metallic chords and lushfull strings builds up slowly through the track and ends in a pure techno monster like the old school sound of detroit. dubcuttin is resoes expression of a dubstep track, with a more techno kind of edge to it, which goes perfect with early releases of a made up sound / 2562 and martyn. don williams remix is a straight detroit inspired track, with hard stabby chords and filtered fxs that for sure will kill your ears on a proper pa system. if you like deep dub with a twist of detroit, you must check this out.....!

1st sampler from >souls back again< compilation

>rdjcs5<, a new 4-track 12-inch ep by solvent, is the result. this is suction022. each and every sound on this record came from rdj’s old cs5, painstakingly programmed and multi-tracked by solvent over the course of several months. the limited capabilities and sound palette of this humble little synth provided quite a challenge, but ultimately the results are not merely an exercise in technical synthnerdery, rdjcs5 speaks more of solvents musical kinship to thee analord. opening track >curtains< bears similarity to early rephlex signing bochum welt, while >radiator<, >mould<, and >tassels< each contain hallmarks of the classic afx sound. at the same time, each track also sounds distinctly and unmistakably solvent. the 12 inch vinyl edition is limited to 300 copies, in brown chipboard sleeve with sticker, and also contains an additional noise/drone piece at the end of side b. entitled >sandpaper<, this cut will be individually hand-etched by solvent, for a 1-of-a-kind cut/click/loop experience.

one of the founding members of the ostgut ton family, marcel dettmann recorded his debut 12inch for the label alongside ben klock with >dawning< some five years ago. now after a string of highly praised releases, his debut album >dettmann<, and a handful of uncompromising records on his own mdr label, we arrive at this new ep for his home label. launching us into the space-race, >barrier< documents those tense moments of discovery as we reach into new territories. dettmanns unique textured sound design sets the scene before diving into >translation one< - a frantic, quivering and snaking snapshot into the kind of techno the producer stands for these days. metallic bass spins sideways, while ever-modulating percussion drives forward. the sinister sci-fi tones of >translation two< warble and jive in glorious syncopation as a systematic heavy kick and hat program works the bass frequencies and rhythmic zones. open and spacious, its meandering theme hangs deliciously between paranoia and positivity. in >planning< dettmann further explores his inclination for intricate, tripping synth patterns. a staggered, wonderfully immersive theme builds from delayed staccato notes in a classic analog sequence, underpinned by rumbling dub bass pressure

after only just recently raising our glasses to our 50th upon you release, heres number 51 just waiting in the bleachers…so basically we are on our way to number 100. our italian friends re-up have rustled up this very promising release called >the new mood ep<. why the name ? i hear you ask. well these two tech-house experts have dug deep to give us a1 with its ecstatic drum rolls in >darkness< , a2 gives us the title track with its dubby-chordy kind of sound, like magically pulling the reins on an indian horse. >what else< they ask themselves on b1 while they gallop over the uy parcour to end this little journey with >so good< on b2.

the a12 motorway was wrapped in complete darkness. the lights of the windmills were blinking in the rhythm of the rotor blades passing by. they appeared just before sunrise. no one had ever seen this kind of creature ever before: red flashing, and bright shining alien butterflies attracted by the windmills. people stopped, and got out of their cars to watch this spectacle. the flying creatures were constantly creating new, kaleidoscope-like formations, and slowly, and very softly at first, they started singing. and although nobody really understood their behaviour, everybody understood their wistful and hopeful song.

labelowner jason little teams up with greg notill for already the 13th release of the infamous jasons mask. pounding hardtechno is what you want and you will get it!

in the primordial soup that is the space often referred to as 130bpm, there lies a lot of dull debris and dirty detritus. but amidst the scattered grey asteroids lies a small but glittering phuture-star, damu, the newest signing to bass station keysound recordings. whereas much that surrounds him is ordinary and unremarkable, damus quadrant is a glittering explosion of hypercolour and kinetic movement, emotive energy and playful pulsations. to enter into its proximity is, in the nicest possible way, to be irradiated by a kind of cosmic glow rays that leaves you fuzzy and warm. the source for this remarkable sound, developed over a relatively short period, is his infectious enthusiasm and unrelenting positivity.

paris is in the house! here you can taste the flavour of some kind of proper parisian house. the two guys from sucre sale offer two deep but punchy house tracks, wich reflect in a certain extent this citys state of mind, what looks superficial can also be cleverly structured - thats the case for this ep, something fresh, positive, well produced and executed. the perfect soundtrack for this spring!

liverpool is the second release of monkey safaris new mambo label. its a two track ep with a lot of housy monkey fun... as usual. the two tracks, liverpool and berlin are absolutely floorburner, with great, prominent vocalparts and hooklines and big techy grooves. its some kind of that stuff you like it or you hate it... but a lot of big artists love it and play it. played & loved by super flu, riva starr, round table knights, solo, zombie disco squad, rene bourgeois, sascha braemer, mihalis safras, yolanda be cool, olivers, jesse rose, malente and many more

systematic welcomes the polish producer duo pol_on from warsaw who are comprised of kacper bogacz and michal piotrowski. after having released several cool 12 inches on freerange, mothership and get physical the first collabo with systematic recordings was a remix they have prepared for spirit catcher. the a side track >were lost< sounds like an energetic mutation of aphex twin after having played too much with powerful house grooves and >heavy rain< on the flip side sounds like a hybrid of old imagination e-piano samples paired with deep house chords in combination with slightly delayed but ass kickin soul grooves. pretty crazy and unpredctable but hey, systematic is kind of the same, isnt it?

we are proud to present eveline finks debut ep hula hoop. with hula hoop and loose powder we get to experience two perfectly arranged grooving swinging tracks. you really feel that she has injected her own personal energy and charm into these tracks, they fully deserve their place on enough!. the hula hoop remix by guido schneider maintains all the power and genius of his earlier works and delivers what we expect of him. this ep is one of a kind and a definite must for all music lovers, it is so special in fact that it may warrant its own little space in music land. but i guess you the listener will decide this.

limited edition release on clear red vinyl, including sticker.
