GHOST HAND EP
12 Inch
24.08.09
just in case someone might have forgotten: stil vor talent is based in berlin. and this ep by sascha braemer, one part of heinrich & hirtenfellner, proves just that. braemer, whos just been at the top of everybodys dj charts with his funk-laden minimal soul piece >mamba drums< on kindisch records, has donated three tracks to oliver koletzkis imprint that mirror what this city is best know for: funky minimal grooves. first up there is >ghost track< a typical dry minimal loop with a rhythmically in touch vocal sample that is then juxtaposed by a simply astonishing piece of melody. goose bumps and groove humps on the floor - guaranteed! on the flip: >girl<. here braemer has created a dubby piece of tech house that floats towards a soulful vocal and some beautiful strings. this is one for the early morning, or in berlin, the late afternoon, those times when everything seems in perfect harmony with each other. last up is >guitar man<, yet another very sample-based stripped down loop with one riff of an echoed guitar being the protagonist. when that riff is fully played out, we all know its summer. but it wouldnt be berlin if there werent some dark wobbly basslines seemingly destroying this but in fact creating the perfect combination of soft and hard, of light and dark. on top of this the vocal sample >i wont leave< perfectly encapsulates the vibe of the praised berlin afterhour. stil vor talent is back at home with this ep.
FIRST TALK

24.08.09
after hitting his stride in 2008 with his debut for mobilee one is not enough followed by his second release, sand on the floor, the one-man phenomenon is back for a third round for mobilees 55th release entitled first talk, an enthralling tech-house release that is as boundless as it is stunning. the a-side first talk is a bouncing techy track that constantly moves forward and progresses without sounding the least bit rushed, continuously teasing the listener with build-ups that stop just short of peaking. combining vintage synths and reverb-laced loops, and.id meticulously plays with dynamics and atmospherics with the end result being a release that constantly moves forward without sounding the least bit rushed. b1 ephoria maintains a similar level of compelling restraint, with stuttered house beats and melodic undercurrents that morph and shift until they transform into arpeggiated swells leading the track to its endpoint. on b2 lights on and.id displays his darker, more minimal side, taking advantage of lower frequency ranges and recurrent echoes

here comes the freakshows 14th chapter - yeah, yeah, yeah! what you will get with buying this record is an extraordinary kind of culture clash in electronic music. we have the young guns m.in, patrick kunkel and basti grub in the red corner and the blue corner comes up with no other than the legendary dj sneak accompanied by mr. harold >lenny kravitz saxophone god< todd. some might say that the combination of names who contributed their skills and creativity to the production process of this release alone should make any electronic music freak become desperately interested in this record - but - if that aint reason enough to at least give it a try, you will find 3 timeless state of the art house tracks on intl. freakshows 14th vinyl release, from which each one has its unique, carefully crafted structure and arrangement. all of them manage to develop a superb uplifting energy, ideal for the upcoming hot summer nights and the daytime partys, too! additionally, as an if-14 - digital only released track - you will get an absolutely stunning and exclusive dj sneak instrumental mix, which we think must be described as an epic, typical sneak-like, massive groovin housemusic bomb, a must!

BAD SCIENCE
12 Inch
21.08.09
this is the one you ve all been waiting for, the bad science ep from the mighty rustie. amazingly enough for an artist who has such an huge impact over the last year this is only his second full ep. i could go for on days about how good it is but best not eh. it all kicks off with the fractured hip-hop weirdness of tar and then swiftly moves into the massive bad science. we ve been seeing folk go crazy to bad science and rightly so, its an anthem and has getting properly hammered by kode9 and mark pritchard to name a few. its then on to the out there 8 bit bleepage of shadow enter. the b-side is now dedicated to the now legendary zig-zag and wireblock have really done themselves pround with this one by going straight to one of rustie s hero s the legendary henrich mueller (dopperleffekt, drexciya, arpanet etc) to add his own electro-physics sound to the aquatic mentalness of the original track. it comes to an end with zig zag (reprise), now the original was daft enough but this just to pushes it even further into new realms of madness. buy, buy, buy!

MOOMBAH!

moombah is one of those records you probably heard on just about any party where chuckie dropped his beats and thought: what the hell...?! the massacre which followed on the dance floor when this bomb (or as david guetta quoted to chuckie: you gave me a huge weapon) got dropped was inevitable: total madness, and a track which became a much sought after release on the net, speculating by those youtube fanatics what it was in the first place. it was only before chuckie added moombah to the tracklist of his dirty dutch compilation when people actually knew the ins and outs.

DOWN THE CORRIDOR TO THE EXIT THROUGH THE GATES OUT INTO SAFETY (LP)
12 Inch LP
18.08.09
as the title of their new full length recording suggests, green concorde is moving, and moving fast. the direction is one and one only: out!
be it from the dark star palm trees of miami, from the silvercoated buildings in the city of glass or from the claustrophobic humidity of their now abandoned rehearsal room in copenhagen, this outfit is running for safety. out where the stars look like arrows on fire. as they move, green concorde stays true to their pulsating post-punk brand, though some of the sounds characteristic noise has been distilled and filtered, leaving a more soft and atmospheric expression than the one characterizing their previous album, ten cities. and unlike ten cities, this album is not a result of hours spent in a cold rehearsal room in a humid basement. instead the nine songs were written under intimate and private forms, partly in the bandmembers own appartments in copenhagen, partly in a small cottage in the dark outskirts of denmark. the run has begun. are you ready to follow green concorde down the corridor, to the exit, through the gates, out into safety?

everyone knows this feeling, when a hook line of a track wont let you go. one says it is a tune wedgie, even if it sounds a bit weird in the clubbing scene. but never you mind, you just start singing out of the blue. olene kadar just hit the bulls eye with >yipyippyip<. this track impresses with an extraordinary addicting ragga vocal and puts on top his breathtaking freaky beat wrapping. one wonders where to put this into a greater content: musical seriousness or simply the fun factor. but in the end people always go crazy, when olene kadar rocks one of the countless parties in holland. the artist playing right after him faces a difficult time. that is what dave aju might have had in mind. his remix heads for another direction. very relaxed and reduced to the bare essentials he slows down the tempo to garnish this fantastic groove with the vocals and e-piano chords. so cool. on the flip you will find the dashing rave monster >neal deepersma<, that brings olene kadars former releases on mos ferry back to mind. on the label website you will get a free bonus download called >looking for an<.

excentric off-shoot rekluse has had a great start so far with carl cox, hell, slam, laurent garnier, james lavelle, technasia, stacey pullen andanderson noise all regularly supporting the label. the previous 4 releases have shown the labels sound to be developing rather nicely with a consistent ear for high production quality alongside a drive for exciting and unconventional electronic music for the dancefloor.the 5th release for the label is supplied by loco & jam, 2 guys who have been really making a name for hemselves in 2009, already with a release on >italo business< under their belts and their remix of henry von s propaganda that has made it s way onto carl coxs >space 2009< compilation. with forthcoming releases penned for >hedgehog< and for umeks >sixteenofive< imprint these guys from limavady, northern ireland are definitely ones to watch out for. >medusa< has been fergie & mr henry von s secret weapon since they first got hold of it, never failing to completely destroy any club that has had it pumped through its soundsystem, as well as support from king unique & the japanese popstars who have been behind it since day one. the a sideis backed with 2 seriously strong cuts that show l&js ability in the studio to take things up a notch (whats the matter) or to twist things up somewhat(virus).

moxie say: we got hipped to the life of a party last year during a breaking contest in nyc, one of those old school ones in the bronx. it was pure ecstasy! so we extended the good part, so the trip would last longer. the idea was to combine party life with two other breakers tracks to form a steppers package and then mj died... browsing back through his catalogue we were reminded of two other sweet 70s tracks: the funky hum along and dance and the smoother, but dangerously infective let me show you (the way to go). the result is moxies tribute to mj. may he be with us forever. thank you for the inspiration and joy you gave us.

to those of you who know your techno, shawn rudiman should be a well-known name. a prolific producer, he has nevertheless always kept his quality control on a tight leash, and releases on 7th city, technoir audio, integrated, dust science & matrix (amongst others) have brought him a reputation of being one of the finest producers around of contemporary detroit style (aka melodic) techno. a nice taster on the last minimalsoul release (sashimi hi) has hence led on to a full ep, and its classic stuff...tough beats and esoteric but catchy melodies all tied up with an expansive production ethic make for a great listen, and (perhaps unusually with this style of music) for a great dancefloor experience too!

adam beyer returns to mad eye with a storming two tracker. keeping it deep and funky and a little bit druggy, beyer takes us on a swirling journey with eerie synths and dubby bass. this is definitely not a record just for a techno frat - you will definitely see cross over to the tech and deep house boys who yearn for something a little bit tougher in their sets. once again beyer can do no wrong as he cements himself as one of the biggest names in techno today. sickeningly good!
MODERN DANCE
12 Inch
12.08.09
first seconds into already 27th release on recognition, and we immediately know that there is serious business going on here. stunningly complex drum track goes like clockwork, only setting the scene for what is to come. forget the craft of drum programming - we are talking another dimension here. >modern dance< is like being suddenly dropped into suspended animation: having that peculiar feeling that the world around is accelerating to the verge of a seizure - and at the same time this very world feels so slow... unnamable, transparent sheets of sound almost give no room to breathe - but ones breath is taken away by the magnificent landscape it s about to appear. shapes shift under half-closed eyelids, and while the low, peaceful yet sad chant comes in, one can feel it like an omnipresent breath, burning hot and marble cold at the same time. this mysterious and heart-wrenching voice comes courtesy of one yula, and were gonna surealy hear much more from her in the future. and it seems that the beats literally start to boil... rhythms shuffle and swing, and taken the lack of floating melodies abundant in jaceks earlier output this track is even more outstanding from theproducers former work - probably acting as a bridge towards new visions, appearing in the confidence of the new, almost-perfect studio.

GOOD TIMES EP
12 Inch
06.08.09
after the success of their collaboration with paul thomas on last years festival anthem >arena<, mark knight and funkagenda join forces once again on one of the most eagerly anticipated tracks showcased at this years miami wmc.
>good times< is the feel good anthem of the summer comprising of a modest intro with a warbling bass line driving slowly through collecting sounds, before opening up into an edgy synth stab and finally the insanely catchy vocal hook >these are the good times<! the track drops back in like a speeding locomotive train going full steam ahead, with cleverly placed percussion, fx and siren sounds soaring to create an intense rhythm.
on the flip, >flauta magica< shows the diversity of these two acclaimed producers when they get in the studio together. taking a different route from the lead track and concentrating more on the groove, >flauta magica< chugs along nicely with an almost tribal percussive feel to it. the excellent chanting vox sample, reminiscent of the early house sound, keeps the groove rolling along into the drop. taking the lead from the tracks name, a whistling flute riff drops elevating the musical vibe to a new balearic level.
BEAT THE HEAT / TUFF CITY
12 Inch
06.08.09
welcome to rebel intelligence - the new label is ready to make you pop like it was 1984 all over again! their first single is by the uks matt whitehead, one half of signal type (along with phil bolland on the cultivated electronics label) and captures the style of early electro funk in all it s analogue glory. so good! the a sides >beat the heat< is the more pacey of the two tracks here, constantly building with vintage synth stabs and the true feeling of electro, reminding us of harold faltermeyer and all those cats so heavy influenced by kraftwerk. on the flip, >tuff city< combines classic b-boy sounds and punchy drum programming to create an authentic listening experience that will make you want to get your lino out and bust some moves. highly recommended.
after the smash that was shatnereffekt one, handsette recordings return, bringing a host of diverse and super talented artists from around the world together on one massive ep and another essential array of electronic music.
kicking off the ep is kritical audios >spandex<, a tune that comes slow on the heels of the swedish duos 2006 braindance monster >krupp<. the swedish duo have come with an itchy slice of razor sharp electrofunk with a burbling acid bassline thats currently being caned by surgeon and rob hall (who says, i ve been playing the kritical audio track a lot. good stuff )... this is a big tune!
next up we have miles tilmanns >spirex< which starts with a wonky off beat that gives way to some wacked-out rubbery bassline action and a lead line that could have come from the keyboard hands of harold faltemeyer or parliaments bernie worrell.
following that is c. mantles >that other eden<. fearsome and delicate, morose and savage, >that other eden< is a serious piece of dancefloor heft with reese basslines burbling under a clattering beat before dropping away into a slightly terrifying double-drop breakdown.
unity gain temples >sahmo< rounds out the ep with a glistening, truly beautiful piece of work. the heavy kicks of the intro are met by a rush of lush chords and deft touches of melody, driving the track into a space that is pure audio luxury and reminiscent of brothomstates, arovane and tippers more contemplative moments.
UMLAUT2 (LEVON VINCENT RMX) - COLOURED VINYL
Coloured 12 Inch
06.08.09
the new series for raw no-nonsens techno and house tracks. some straight up techno... some edgy, exciting and fresh, sometimes just plain functional dj tools. first one is mike dehnert with his solid umlaut track that was overlooked by many when it was released on his own fachwerk imprint. mike is one of the big talents with his own trademark sound.. something we don t hear to often! 3 unreleased verions of umlaut2... mikes first unreleased mix, slightly housier then the first one, the umlaut2 new version which is a straigth up club tool. big surprise here is the remix by levon vincent! a new talent from new york that got his name on the map after 3 incredible releases on his own novel sounds and deconstruct labels. he did a more then excellent job with his dirty and housier version. levon did lay down a crazy groove with an old fashioned hook line (very n.y. house) and mold it into a fierce techno track. fresh and completely different then most techno out there these days.
