optimo trax is an offshoot label of optimo music for tracks aimed at djs/dancefloors. yes, we know there are too many record labels already, but we felt an overriding desire to start another one as so much music that didn t seem quite right for optimo music (i.e. music that was specifically designed for dancing) kept coming our way. like the parent label, optimo trax will release music by new artists and excavate forgotten classics. all four tracks were recorded in 1992. staples of jd twitchs dj sets at the timem and all tracks he still plays to this day.

in paradisums 11th offering comes from low jack, who returns to the label after his collaboration with qoso. it is a heavy ep of dense, apocalyptic sounds from the fast rising french dj and producer that often churns along at a very predatory sub-100bpm.

the track 303/303/303/606/606 is heavy, slow grooving techno that brings the listener back to the dark emptiness of the plastikman consumed era. on the b-side the tm404 project is allowed elevated to new levels. with a yamaha sy-1 and a yamaha tg33 entering the machine park, tm404 for the first time, breaks his roland oath and opens up the project to a future of new po ssibilit ies. during the development of the svans ep this track actually went under the working title the summer hit. take a listen to the fine bassline, airy production and the selected ambient works-inspired harmonies and sounds and you will know why. welcome to over 12 minutes of pure old school bliss.

in 2011 when mad mats and tooli went to sonar festival in barcelona they met ludovic llorca aka art of tones outside a club. little did they know back then that two years later on they would release a 12 inch together. the same thing ep opens with the title track and kicks pretty damn sweet with its strong vocal, the guitar, bass and rhodes jamming on top of a tight groove, there is also a dub version included on the b-side. last but not least, the great sgatmi is a jazzy and bumpy house take with lots of samples perfectly balanced. all in all, classic art of tones material and the work of a producer firing on all cylinders.

i first met leon vynehall in berlin before a gig at the amazing about_blank. we had a fun conversation and he played a really good set that night. much later i realized i had been playing one of his tracks (total s) for ages! we stayed in touch and i asked if i could hear some of his new music. he sent me five tracks and i signed four, that is a pretty good score if you ask me! smart and conscious about his music and his output, i think this ep is really only the beginning for leon vynehall. i am glad i am able to give it a platform and share these amazing tracks with you. also special props to d&m for doing a great mastering job on these. - martyn

the seventh instalment in lo sheas series of 10 vinyl only releases on seaghdha. you know by now how this goes - precision club workouts, which ricochet between uk flavoured jams, to clean cut techno & stripped down house. vasquez leads the charge here, less about the legendary captain of the soundfactory, and more the soundtrack to a drug deal gone bad in downtown miami. like her flails around a bowel troubling low end and crisp snare double act, piling on the pressure with an unrelenting groove and some deftly applied distortion. elsewhere 365247 is in more familiar lo shea / seaghdha territory, with some expertly manipulated, atmospheric sampling laid over a spare, shuffle-happy herbertesque workout. finally flash gives us a glimpse into sleepless basement, inhabited by addled humanoids, playing glass bottles.

for those who know the story of the bridge wars, there is some irony found in the fact that scott la rock, representing the south bronx, was born in queens, though he did relocate to the south bronx at a very young age. after graduating high school la rock spent four years in vermont at castleton college where he earned varsity letters in basketball, but more importantly for the world of hip hop he became more and more enamored with music. on graduation he returned to new york and began working as a dj and as a social worker at the franklin armory mens shelter in the bronx. it was at the shelter that scott met kris parker and the duo formed boogie down productions. the rest, as they say, is history. roughly a year after the tragic shooting death of boogie down productions founder, dj and producer scott la rock b boy records and krs-one issued this special remix album, a man and his music (remixes from around the world). billed as a limited edition collectors classic the project was released in a limited run – briefly available in the 90s – and now after years of being unavailable reappears as a tribute to one of the genres early pioneers.

first up sees the new methodology track in full on dance floor assault mode - serious break-fuelled techno with rolling drums, off beat funk elements and big stabbing chords moving in and out of fx laden atmospheres at a fairly furious pace. the b side introduces yet another incredibly talented producer from the iridite stable - mike singleton is a regular dj at glasgow s internationally famous monox club as well as being one of the chief tech-heads and all round music know-it-alls at rubadub records. his track here will appeal to anyone who likes to be genuinely shaken up by a track - it s got the lot - cutting edge production techniques, heartfelt melody, intricate and complicated programming, bassline turning and twisting almost inside out, fantastic fx, but most of all >the funk<! methodology round things up with another mutant house/techno hybrid track - all shuffly percussion, filtered samples and a mournful, string laden climax, layered with weird bleep-ing riffs and super-sub bass

the second offer on public possession is by artist matthew brown. we know little about this guy - he lives in tasmania in an area known as the great western tiers and is held in high regard for his live sets on the mainland. getting the final tapes of him was quite difficult but well worth the effort. he has been an integral part of the electronic underground scene in australia for years and the demand for a physical release was high. finally the wait is over, public possession is very happy to present you the first ever 12&#8243,, by matthew brown, who delivers three tracks, two of them probably best described as analogue electronic funk for dancefloors at peaktime. the ep is completed by the track borobo with its incredible slowmotion groove and balearic touch. all in all we are very happy to share this music with you, as it was a about time that the music by the man matthew brown gets its shine on a vinyl release. expect more to come in the future, this is just the beginning…

paris based dj and producer reverend p have been on the gamm radar for quite some time. but its not until now that we managed to get his wonderful edits released through gamm.
spread out over two eps reverend p delivers soul, funk and boogie reworks that sets himself up there with all the big players on the edit scene. on part 1 we find a hot selection of marvin tunes and a soulful chi-lites track.

simply he has never done us. the low-key friendly turkish producer with the unpronounceable name, has never made music for the hip all-together-happiness-floor. the man comes from jazz and blues. and at tolga baklacioglu means electronic music production to test the depths of house music. sometimes tricky, sometimes playful, sometimes psychedelic, but always deep. his tracks have often a length of eleven or twelve minutes. music takes time. prime-time music sounds different. and that is why we like him. and so tolga published with *feeling now and then* his fourth lebensfreude - ep. music that was heard up to buenos aires, where the argentine producer and dj violett (telegraph/unfoundsound/igloo) contributed a functionally magical remix. one thing we know. this time it will not be simple again. luckily.

played by marco carola, ame, dixon, nick curly, marco resmann, gel abril, stacey pullen, guy j, osunlade, wankelmut, andre galluzzi, chris wood, m.a.n.d.y., mihai popoviciu, tensnake, brendon collins, matt star.its open air and summertime…. with this new movida record you cant do wrong! starting with a brilliant opener from the french tom ayann with his deep, but groovin “strawbassy” track which you could hear already last summer season in marco carolas sets at amnesia / ibiza and his crowd go crazy then. the bavarian kay rauner aka mindrage delivers us an old-school dub-tech-house track with trippin nasa-like samples….if this is no space-techno, i really dont know where you could find it. last but not least our buddy matt star brings us a new track which he made together with movida label boss and good friend michael peter which you kick for 11 minutes to another galaxy. if you love the sound of guy gerber or mathew jonson, you should listen to this one for sure. the summer season can start right now and here….!

fresh new uk label with two killer tracks that will turn some heads. amazing piece of house music that is working like madd without using the standard cliches. a accomplishment by this young producer neinzer in these days of looking back! opening with a funked up track that goes somewhere between things we know from shake and recloose but comparing it to others isnt doing the track any justice. flip side cranks the tempo up and gives a mad techno piece with some sample trickery. best start a label could wish!
