after his great debut single >wonderland< on deep circus, we are very happy to present florian gasperini >the crypt ep< on our imprint. florians productions are always very functional on the dance floor. with >the crypt< he underlines this again and presents us a dark but also very groovy tech house bomb. the release includes a great remix by patrick kunkel, which keeps the groove from the original, but without the dark atmosphere. the b-site track >alaska< is a beautiful house track, nice fit for the last summer nights.

luv005 already and no doubt another classy four tracker that will top a few sales charts in the coming weeks and months. it has been a wonderful summer for the luv shack crew with every release bettering the last. the response and reaction to the new label has been astounding and beyond a pleasant surprise. with intelligent dance music such as this, it really shouldnt be such a surprise, but in a world of mass mediocre music, it does happen more often than not, that the good stuff doesnt always find its way. the guys though have found a place in a lot of hearts and quite a few tasty dj sets and record boxes with four very consistent releases. so, here we go with what is yet another worthy addition to any half decent djs repertoire me thinks. and it is lee stevens who teams up with local friends to deliver a very crafted set of aural niceness for your distinguished pleasure.

it is about time the exaltics and koova appeared on abstract forms, and part three, the next instalment of the combined series, is the perfect vehicle for the pair to showcase their talent. the exaltics deliver a stealthy blow of three typically wonderful works, ranging from the menacing tension of >cold lights<, to the dark acid-techno of >with the lights out<, to the restrained electro shuffle of >the last resort<. flip over to where koova operates, taking us on a journey from the deep atmospheres of >shift register<, to the mechanical electro rhythms of >rtfm< and ending the ep with the wonderful clinical execution of >flux tube<. superb.

daniel stefanik is one of the techno and house newcomers of the last years. his carefreeness as a dj behind the decks and his likeable appearance are literally distinctive for a new generation of young, down-to-earth producers from germany, which are the result of the influence of väth, villalobos and hawtin on the one side, and solid but hedonistic house on the other. whereas many producers nowadays have dedicated themselves to only one musical direction, the influence of kerri chandler, chez damier or kevin saunderson is clearly noticeable in stefanik’s music. his longplay debut for cocoon recordings is a mirror of all these influences and yet it’s so up-to-date and contemporary like only few other techno and house albums today.

neon is the theme for the summer and this is what its about! h.o.s.h. and malonda have already shown us on their last cooperation ep on diynamic what pop can sound like nowadays. it s fresh, its true and its impressively original. thats what no one is all about. same also goes for woohoo which is done in cooperation with diynamics sexy boys from norway ost & kjex. as a bonus the b side features dub versions of both tracks.

ok so heres the last installment in the creme jak series. we feel there s not much to add to this concept and over the past few years this kinda musick has found the foothold it lacked when we started this lil enterprise in the heydayz of beige vanilla minimal. in any case it seems fitting to go full circle and draw the curtains with an epic disco anthem that might not be jak perse, but at least coulda woulda shoulda been caned back in the dizzies in all the places that mattered ese! you see, house is a feeling and blablabla.. so here s a final one up your purist backsides as this mystery strap-on crew cuts and tape edits its way through a molten bucket of swiss cheese and ends up with a dead hooker in the trunk in the process. limited 250 copies sticker ish. no repress, no digital, this is the end..

nice price deal !!! here comes a record that shouldnt have been released in the first place. who first started to circulate the cd-r with the blue inscription waiting for kim / we get high is totally unknown. the more known though, is who has been playing these two tracks, the one subtly uplifting, the other cranky dark, over the last few months. its still an unsolved riddle who is responsible for those two very divergent (but obviously coming from a single source productions. the fact that now these two tracks are coming out as a white label doesnt shed any more light on the affair either. but will please the dj and club world nonetheless.

basic soul unit has been a fixture on torontos techno scene for the best part of the last decade, with releases on mathematics, crème organization and mule electronic, while skudge have made their name with a unique sound and an independent approach which has seen most of their material released through their own imprint. both artists show an interesting insight into boddikas curatorial approach for the label, and are indicative of the move towards 4/4 techno that the producer has been making for a while now – with both producers sharing a similarly weighty, yet deep approach to the genre that boddika has been moving towards in his recent collaborations with joy orbison
