hot on the heels of the bestselling second edition in the limited series, the ppf boys dropped off this outstanding third ep in the sample pleasures trilogy!!! as always, they expertly reference classic, though less well known underground gems from the last days of disco to early forays into proto house. heavily influenced by the fertile early 80s period, when european disco and boogie sounds took us in a more electronic direction, and the kind of boundary pushing, energetic, funked up soundtrack ron hardy laid down in the music box, the popular peoples front have established a formidable reputation for making stand out modern club cuts...

dj support - richie hawtin, adam beyer, eric prydz, dubfire, paco osuna, christian smith, chris liebing,.. which ever way you look at this its hard to imagine that this will not be one of the biggest club tracks of the year!! this has been the biggest record in eric prydzs set for the last few months which lead him to eventually make the remix under his cirez d guise. richie hawtin has also been hammering the original relentlessly as have adam beyer, dubfire, paco osuna, christian smith,..

supported by 3 channels, italoboyz, mike monday, john acquaviva, p.toile. the deep jungle can be an intimidating place. home to bird-eating spiders, deadly jaguars, and fierce natives, most ordinary folks wouldn’t last more than a day. fortunately, the jungle also holds plenty of swingable vines, feastable roots & berries, and the great scarlet macaw. label boss claude vonstroke’s first record on mothership is an ode to this majestic bird.

one of the first villalobos production ever!! mindblowing minimal jackin stuff !! limited repress

as with the last 12 the eight:fx label give us some more dark dubstep sounds. alarm & black cat make up another 12 from another newcomer on the eight:fx label that cannot be missed. limited 12 copies only.

once more some of the finest gathered, picking up right where we left off last time! this second release broadens the soundscape of hardtechno with alex kvitta, paul langley, dj minupren and mario ranieri

smashing dancefloor track with great driven beats!! amigos 001 and 002 were some of the best records that came out on these last months in this frame, and were played and charted by many of the biggest djs in the world such as charles siegling, preach, dave the drummer, and many others. dj murphy from brazil also included 3 tracks from amigos recordings on his mixed cd lets go techno that just came out by beat disaster.

played by: oliver huntemann, miss kittin, pig&dan, blackstrobe,..... for reference number 75 oliver huntemann hired the german newcomer arne großmuller aka jaxon, whose productions on labels like hypercolour, dipolter or freak waves have caused a massive stir in the clubs over the last month

support comes from hosh, karotte, dave dk, tom clark, jamie jones, sasse and many more.. it’s been a while since james flavour released his last full artist single ! after numerous releases for labels like highgrade, brique rouge and other remix dutys on his own labels plus the work on dirt crew’s last album the bavarian native, residing in berlin for 14 years now, really took his time to bring you these three full on club tracks. taking a different approach to his sound we know from his last two singles on dirt crew recordings, the idea was to create a more reduced minimal groove with dubby influences as they can only be delivered from berlin city.

jesse siminski is one of those musicians its impossible to ignore. whether producing as heartthrob or alter-alter ego vivianne projects his work is instinctive, insightful and driven by an irresistible force that instantly rubs off on the audience. its no surprise then that the first single to be lifted from heartthrobs eagerly awaited debut album >dear painter, paint me< is >signs<, a track that fully demonstrates the extent of his repertoire. one of the highlights of his not-to-miss live set, its also become a corner stone of richie hawtins dj sets over the last few months due to the massive crowd response it generates whenever it drops. billed as homage to classic detroit techno, theres a real air of expectancy about the mix friendly introduction. the powerful kick pattern, swirling sci-fi vocal efx and loose hi hat groove soon make way for the urgent, cavorting main melody that spins off into another dimension before a massive, resonating synthetic bass wipes out everything in its path. one of the main ideas running through the album is the juxtaposition and layering of different rhythms and time signatures and this really comes across on signs, with disco and caribbean inflections adding a cut and thrust to the chugging groove, creating the perfect foil to the sonic mayhem overhead. the b-side features apprentice – a tag heartthrob can safely leave behind with the release of >dear painter, paint me<. of course its another guaranteed floor filler with a finely honed acidic riff that immediately taps into the subconscious...

plays: james holden ... the second release on apparillo music is a production by harald björk. a young and very talented swedish artist, who inspired us last year, with his fantastic - brus / luftlust ep on traum-schallplatten. harald is part of a young and very successful community of musicians to which also his friends petter and nathan fake belong to. on his nanting-dunkelt-ep, he shows us, that there are still undiscovered soundscapes and plenty of tone-resources available... so eat fresh!

4 peak time hard techno tracks with london taste

here comes a real trip through the horny nightlife of the big city of art in barcelona/spain. 4 totally different and 100 percent funny tracks, starting from vocal techno - over to drum n bass - and finish with a trippy taste of industrial hardtek! not to be miss... it s our last release in 2007, and a very strong winter release for all the techno maniacs out there.

incl phat agaric remix !! diego capri and andrea gentile, the duo from rome who brought us the excellent downhill ep on metroline ltd (mltd 002) last summer, return with two more slices of bass-heavy dancefloor-focused minimal techno

another fine release on winding road records! this is a debut ep from bleep district. true to their name, the 4 tracks here contain plenty of mesmerising bleeps sitting inside the slick deep house grooves youd expect from the label. the lead track, bleep of faith, is peaktime voodoo house with cool vocals, and a wicked bassline which comes as a special surprise half way through. robot claart is superdeep, hypnotic tech-house with a cheeky jamaican dub twist. when i saw you, possibly the strongest tune of the package, is a real killer. with polished production, reverse vocal licks and an ubercool bleepy bassline, this track is a contender to be a summer anthem of 2008. essential! the last track on the package, some may say, is an eccentric but irresistable hip-hop meets folk-house number. yet another winning package from winding road

the long awaited follow-up single from the parquet rec. labelhead solee! after big club hits like impressed or different normen flaskamp aka solee delivers the ultimate summer & open-air hymn timba. as usual, the original combines minimal techno with voluminous sounds and amazing melodies and will be one of the next crossover-hits this year for sure! next to the original mix, solee also shows us his deeper tech-house side with the solees basement dub. last but not least, neurotron (ostwind / nightdrive music) complete this big package with their ultra cool deep-house remix! already massive international dj support by: laurent garnier, john digweed, roger sanchez, josh wink, dj yellow, deetron, sharam (deep dish), satoshie tommie, yousef, joris voorn, ewan pearson, sander kleinenberg, hernan cattaneo, dj tiesto, sasha, umek, tiger stripes, dave seaman, argy and many more

not another promo text!?!? we find that all of the music produced by harry axt speaks volumes, therefore we simply (and happily!) offer you these two new tracks. it s worth mentioning that this is the last ep from harry axt before his album release in october on rompecabeza music. the whole summer he will indulge in a production break, so that he may doze in the sun, test every type of beer possible, demolish enormous amounts of grilled meat and danish ice cream, and then completely concentrate this replenished creativity on his debut album. then, while the sun fades away for another season, he will let the sunshine back into our ears…

after the amazing 2084/ultra ep on music man last year, we are very proud to present a new redshape record to you guys! both robot and neon are two amazing gems in his own original style. not to miss!!! feedback: adam beyer: love robot, sounds exellent! really current in an old fashioned way!

spanish heroes sonde & shaver are the guys for the first release on incase with music that focuses on club-compatibility in the first row. last call shakes through the record and the demanding clubhours while trouble is my business is something for the more moody times

incl kai alce rmx !! the third release on fast fwd. a bossa piano driven stomper that gets a fast and cool remix from kai alce (trackmode records) on the a-side. the original mix highlights the percussion and has a more jazzy feel, still very fast paced but not quite as manic. the last track is a mellow groover.

sounderground records return with their 7th release this time with a little help from the ubiquitous, patrick zigon, who delivers a storming ep. patrick has fast been gaining attention amongst the dancefloor community with numerous outstanding releases and remixes, with no sign of letting up. he has already garnered a big following having remixed for labels such as cocoon, trapez, treibstoff, be as one and kling klong, as well as his own productions on labels such as tanzbar and puzzle traxx, including the awesome >mental draining ep<.

early support finds favour with laurent garnier, claude von stroke, ralph lawson, mark knight and deep dish&#146,s sharam. it&#146,s been a while since we last heard from mike monday &#150, almost two years, to be exact when he delivered smorgasbord, which won numerous accolades and superlatives in the dance press. lauded as album of the month in i-dj, while dj mag called it a lp we just can&#146,t put down, others jump on board and claim it as a future classic. now signed to san francisco&#146,s om records label, the man who never fails to impress, educate and entertain is back. >the 11 11<&#146,(no, we&#146,re not sure what it means, either) is backed with the equally oddball titled &#145,>hello nest<. regardless, it&#146,s another terrific house offering that pairs dubbed-out beats with techno-tinged melodies to create a modern day jackin&#146,sound. the addition of a driving synth-line only helps this swing, shake&#145,n&#146,rattle in all the right places over a dirty-as-hell bassline. anything but what we&#146,ve come to usually expect from the label, the sund is an equally refreshing break from convention for om, and is taken from the upcoming album, songs without words&#146,by monday

dj play - john digweed, pete tong, eric prydz, henan cattaneo ... guy j makes a most welcome return to bedrock after his debut release with the label last year in the form of the excellent save me / night loss which got rave reviews and top dj support. under pressure is a great follow up and has become a firm favourite with john digweed standing out as one of the highlights of his many wmc sets as well as its inclusion on his most recent transitions 4 cd

following their big success with the felix remake dont you want me last year, this time they worked on this classic by leila k.

first 500 limited edition on red transparent vinyl! we are very proud to present the debut of 21 year old tim toh, a fresh producer with such a huge talent and character in his tracks, we guess, we didn t hear for the last decade in house music! that s a big goal to claim, but it s also the reason, we signed him for a three-part series called >join the resistance< and this is part 1. the a-side is like an intro to the whole series, starting with some charming detroitish-sequences and a smooth piano, while the beat shapes itself naturally out of the track with raw percussions and a thumpin kick... from then on it twists and turns into sweet eternity…timeless! the b-side is beatdown rhythmic wizzadry and a tool par excellance, polyrhythmic percussions and a beat that will shake every floor you dare to play it

for flash lützenkirchen delivers three very classy dancefloor burners. first up there is >enter the moonlight<, an enchanting piece of thumping peak time business. a big bass, pumping beats and some great oriental sounds combined with far-out effects create a unique atmosphere. modern styles meet oldskool feelings! >on the shore< is even more oldskool than that. the fat and wobbly bassline pushes the track forward and creates the perfect antagonism to the warm effects and clicky minimal beats. the highlight - however - is the wonderfully written melodic piano piece that turns this track from wicked into wow! beautiful and tough, oldskool and fresh, slick and funky - all at the same time. this one is going to be huge. listen for yourself! at last there is >pokemon companion<, a more direct and solid piece of minimal tech. a drum’n bass like powerfully grumbling bass, and yet another memorable synthie pattern that seems to grow out of the buzzing loop like a spring flower out of wet grass - naturally and wonderful!

first release in the funky house acapella series!!

the polytechnics ep is the second release on df by silver city following the superb dubby ep from 2006. on the a side, the title track polytechnics has electrofunk vibes blending perfectly with new wave sensibilities. think greg wilson mixing up gary numan and you wont be far off. it rocks! and on the flip, nu disco don pete herbert (reverso 68/lsb) cuts up pendulo a heavily arrpegiated disco stormer and transforms it into yet another disco bomb. this was an edit that pete knocked together for his own dj sets and we loved it so much we just had to put it on the vinyl. last, but in no way least, is victoria jam which is a no nonsense heads down groover of a track that will get your dancefloors rocking. seriously good music. enjoy! plays by: ashley beedle, llorca, fabrice lig, electric press, reverso 68, munk, murray richardson, ajello, dubious...

following on from their last superb release, which is now totally sold out ! we have two more classic idjut edits from the vaults..... dan tyler & conrad mcdonnell aka the idjut boys have been very busy playing legendary dj sets, releasing mix cds and wonderful 12inch singles and lps for well over a decade. their reputation behind the decks and the studio mixer is second to none, and along with dj harvey, foolish felix and co, are the undisputed grand wizards of the uk disco scene. always versatile and shot through with warm psychedelia and that trademark dubbed out vibe, idjut boys productions always have a unique feel, not to mention serious collectibility !following on from their last superb release, which is now totally sold out ! we have two more classic idjut edits from the vaults..... dan tyler & conrad mcdonnell aka the idjut boys have been very busy playing legendary dj sets, releasing mix cds and wonderful 12inch singles and lps for well over a decade. their reputation behind the decks and the studio mixer is second to none, and along with dj harvey, foolish felix and co, are the undisputed grand wizards of the uk disco scene. always versatile and shot through with warm psychedelia and that trademark dubbed out vibe, idjut boys productions always have a unique feel, not to mention serious collectibility this is a one-off pressing, it wont be repressed and is limited to an initial run when its gone, its gone for good !! tttttttip

coldworker has evolved into a finely tuned swedish death metal machine on its second full length rotting paradise. rotting paradise balances modern metal brutality, and distinctly european flourishes of metallic grandeur to form the quintessential swedish death metal album for a new century of extremity.

three new tracks by mix mup on mikrodisko. three musical statements, instead of drawing from a wide range of samples from old vinyl, as he did on his last release >dj of higher quality<, mix mup this time mostly relies on his own voice and an all-in-one sequencer. you can hear his love for raw chicago-acid-house b-sides, his affinity for italodisco and sonic experimentation. this is not about a clean sound and a clear arrangement, the tracks were produced in a moment for the moment. all tracks were produced in a single session, without quantising, without a screen, without a mouse. always with some scepticism and his tongue in his cheek

last summer, the berlin-based producer and well-known remixer chris zippel (who already worked with the pet shop boys, robbie williams or ich & ich) already celebrated his very personal interpretation of modern and complex ambient between zwischen triphop beats and melancholic pop references by his genuine horizon album. with this ep, chillout producer zippel has chosen a way quite unusual for him by taking four tracks of the album, making them compatible for the dancefloor with a number of co-producers and proving that dub is still up-to-date in 2008. the ep starts with an interpretaton of electronic spain recordings producer mangelt: again, a straightforward energy flash between reminiscence and modern club sound, takes on the powerful post acid minimalhouse sound a la steve bug. the dane mike salta turns mirror dawn into deep techhouse dub, and also the schwerin-based downtempo producer andre muelle alias vakuum sounds shows that he is influenced by a timelessly valid unterstanding of dub and fragmented s mples by his version of glacier. finally, the tribal progressive house dub of blade remixed by kling klong impresario namito (berlin), undoubtedly the most famous remixer on this ep, goes right into your hips

for his housemusic productions milk & sugar recordings turned out to be jean claude ades first choice, releasing his last solaphonics project. the new solaphonics production is an excellent, 100% funky house piece with a soulful vocal line, a funky piano riff and great remixes from yves murasca & bk duke and raul rincon, who recently mixed the milk & sugar recordings compilation housemusic.de - chapter v.

ivan spell s last release for baroque limited was one of the labels strongest releases of 2007, picking up support from tech, prog & electro djs alike.. here he throws down this deep throbby original. on the flip we are treated to a sparkling take on the track from jay lumen.. clean punchy grooves and hooky woven melodies make this a perfect spring groove

incl polder rmxs !! big with steve bug, laurent garnier, jeff samuel, peace division, magaret dygas, dave mothersole, jonny rock. welsh wunderkid leif returns to fear of flying after his much played >commonplace ep< from last year with another beautifully paced ep of super sweet minimal house music.

kaiser souzai strike back cloud-bustingly: and the result is hypnotic, driving & rhythmic to the last pattern. plays by fuzzy hair, francesco frafa, chris frontier, nudisco. we guess the idea of clouds inspired kaiser souzai for the 2nd ep once again as the result stratocumulus is a banging

two tracks which have been tested to satisfaction in live sessions around the globe during the last months, loved by the girls, envied by the boys, two dense character studies of epic scale where every small detail morphs into a very hookline, relaxed and ambitious at the same time. yep, this guy could even produce a soundtrack to a speck of dust and still everybody would think it’s star wars.

der dritte raum, daniel meteo & sun electric mixe! nice price - last copies left

one of the biggest producers in progressive, chab returns to the forefront with a pretty nice release of one of the biggest anthems in 2005 closer to me. the german edition comes along with 2 unbelievable phonjaxx remixes - both have this unique phonjaxx sound which will keep you on the dancefloors! last but not least you also get the muzzaik remix which will hynotize you! go and get this incredible remix package of the best know phonjaxx and muzzaik!

with already huge releases on labels like recycled loops, primate and last years spilo 011 we bring you the bomb of 2008 from boriqua, hustler ep! after the great feedback on the 2006 release, celina ep, we were in high demand for a follow-up in that style, and boriquas main man, rainer gonaus, delivers like always with the peak time track felicia on the a-side. on the b-side is the track natasha, another slammer with its heavy hypnotic beatsand sounds will ignite all dancefloors.

after a long wait, touane is back solo on his beloved home base persona. after collaborating with nuel on grand theft audio and dozzy on the thrillers, out last month, marco drops a single for the upcoming sunny season. the birds ep features music he played during 2007 at his live shows across the globe, and it unites the freedom of the live performance improvisation to his love for detailed and sharped production in the studio with a whole new freshness

following the success of last years >nitrogen 2 oxygen 1< ep for siteholder records and the recently released >filthy fibber< ep on uncut, the duo of billy dalessandro and daniel mnookin have teamed up once again under the slutbox moniker to deliver the >backseat driver< ep. switching up the rotation, the ep kicks off with los angeles based producer jason emsleys >lick it, smack it, rub it down remix<, a filthy number that no amount of sludge can adequately describe. a subtle, yet effective rhythm section keeps the dance floor busy while the dirty synth overtones grow larger and larger until they have conquered ones brain synapses. feeding off of the original vocal and adding some x-rated lines of his own, if pornographic techno wasnt a genre before, it is now. the original is pure slutbox at its best. deep bass, seductive rhythm, addictive loops, and a spanish guitar combine to make this one another club killer. as if you had a choice, please make your way to the dance floor - the night has begun. rounding out the vinyl release is st. louis via berlin dj/producer butane (a.k.a. andrew rasse). known for his widely praised work on his own alphahouse label, as well as top techno imprints dumb unit, num, and rrygular, butane has long been a friend of the siteholder crew and takes this opportunity to make his debut on the remix tip. deep, druggy, and hypnotic, butanes >percocet remix< is what one has come to expect from the late night veteran. whether its early evening, time to jack, or after-after hours, the >backseat driver< ep is an all-in-one tech fueled necessity

at last the massive the one gets a release split over 2 12inches! a future number 1?
