the acronym lfo is normally used for >light fuel oil<, but what robert stolt presents with his new release is truly nutritious fuel for the dancefloor. >beyond lfo< developed a groove like chiseled, massive, overwhelming, heated up and extremely intense. a track that could easily run more and more and leaves you breathless and speechless as soon as the last bass drum is faded away. two remixes come from the feather of the well-known pig & dan guys. a steppin and ever-shifting rhythm is the foundation on which a swinging guitar melody unfolds their poignant effect and transform force into playful clarity. a suitable outdoor summer hit. in their second version, the melodic superstructure is purified rigorously, the residual remain compacted and the driving rhythmic moment dressed in a hypnotic dub garb. the clearly breaks infected track >monster< is inspired by the aesthetics of american b-movie monster movies from the 50s. varying, cinematic sound cascades and these wonderful bleeps over all have a direct path into the heads own sound cinema.

last year has been a little more quiet about dem birds but since they landed in their new studio the output is back where it should be. the demand for lovebirds is higher than ever especially after his current deephouse bomb featuring stee downes beautiful vocals on >want you in my soul< (winding road). the honeybadger ep referrs to the most badass animal on this planet. it simply doesnt give a shit about anything. and this is something lovebirds can relate to very well. should we also talk about music? well, maybe … >chasing things< is a deephouse peaktime funkmonster. its full on lovebirds sound - deephouse u can seriously party to and loose your cool. no 808 bassdrums either!! >running backwards< is a slick midtempo rat with some pretty badass drums and a kenny >fuckin< powers bassline that actually deserves the name, bitch! not to mention the heavenly breakdown with some of the smoothest guitars in this universe! last part of this heavy threesome is called >gives a shit< and is a nice oldskool tune with a heavy >let no man put asunder< bassline on top of some moodyman-ish chord stabs … ah, and i think brother marvin made it also on this one!!

as a member of chairlift, the band he co-founded in 2006 and exited in 2010, aaron pfenning pulled double (and triple) duty – playing multiple instruments, writing songs, producing, and contributing vocals for the band s major label debut. that comfort with musical multitasking – and a cache of songs he d written that didnt fit his main project – made a new solo effort seem like the natural and logical next step to take. pfenning assumed the name rewards (a moniker hes actually used since 2003), spent the better part of last year touring with we are scientists, brandon flowers and warpaint, and released three broodingly romantic singles (>i used to<, >what a loser< and the achingly beautiful >two cardinals<) that made a host of listeners take sudden notice

moody melodic synth patterns, stripped back electronic percussion and haunting hypnotic vocals. may i present the latest masterpiece from reuben tobias: portraits ep. a finely balanced deep underground pop release that will no doubt hold the attention of such names as troxler and jamie jones. the structure, complex enough to hold interest but simple enough to maintain elegance, takes you on a journey through the mind of reuben tobias as you listen attentively to every word of the self expressive lyrics. the b side lead, marran, shares very much the similar characteristics as portraits. minus the lyrics, marran uses subtly layered electronic synths and the comforting sound of young children playing outside to suck you down into a place of complete concentration. your focus becomes stuck in fascination for the sounds guiding you through the duration of the track right to the last second. a brilliant ep. not one for the clubs but certainly one for the collection.

released as a 2 x 12 inch with the full length 11 track cd album shrink-wrapped. the vinyl features 4 brand new remixess from the album.this album represents the peak so far of the lads technical skills, its carefully produced from start to finish. tracks are frequently tied together, and a lot of thought has gone into the flow of the album. this is one that can be listened too from beginning to end, as opposed to a collection of singles. however that doesnt mean that state of mind have forgotten about the 3am raver. almost all of the tracks have all been smashing it up world wide over the last 6 months in their own right. collaboration wise, the album features several of nzs most talented vocalists including shapeshifters p.digsss, thomas oliver, sacha vee, mc woody & pnc, as well as american singer 3pm. the only production collaborators are nymfo and dnme. several other collaborations were planned for the lp, but in the end were unable to fit. these will be released as bonus tracks.

hrdvsion may not be the first act we were actually checking out for an irr output but we are not irritated that we found it. with i can t exist our canadian friend successfully strikes the balance between deep housyness and accelerated departure. if you turn the piece of plastic around you find a more typical hrdvsion track celebrating the same magical atmosphere. last but definitely not least the b2 is a fusion-remix by ada that insists on being played in the sunshine.

following last years >gentlemen jack ep<, t. melchior delivers 3 brandnew jackers. welcome to the >bums 4 higher ep<. welcome to the pleasuredome! support from dj koze , efdemin, etc ...
repress 2015

support by richie hawtin, m.a.n.d.y., andreas henneberg, kombinat100 and many more. featuring deep atmospheres and altogether slightly more electronic rhythms, the second part of the catchpenny & cosmos series rounds this double release off by an even greater variety of sound. just like its name implies, the dark tower hotel is a wondrous and mysterious place. upon intricate double bass chords and trippy synthesizer riffs, female singing from times long gone mixes elegantly into the hypnotic arrangement like a melodic leitmotif. in his remix, mollono.bass lives up to the last four letters of his name and delivers a rolling groove. the jaeger gains experience with acid, at least during the second part of this title which distinguishes itself by a minimal character and enigmatic wind instrument sounds. last but not least there is morgiana , a laid-back song that does not aim the dance floor. its catchy gypsy vibe, created by lots of classical instruments, reflects the remarkable compositional talent of be svendsen in a very entertaining way.

featurecast s previous ep went straight in at the number 1 slot in sales charts across the globe last year, this second instalment is set to rock the world again and stamp this rising star at the forefront of the ghetto funk sound. all 4 of these tracks whipped glastonbury crowds up a treat! tried and tested dynamite.

such an intense, variegated, and singularly saccharin sound can only come from the mind of someone whos in love with life and music. its what puppy love sounds like for our generation. following the paul woolford remix of t. williams and terri walkers heartbeat comes local action 006, the first 12inch release by an amazing new artist from manchester, uk, called damu. after this, hes got material penciled in for blackdowns keysound label and more. the title track, a stand-out from girl units xlr8r podcast last year, is one of the best tunes weve put out yet, full of colour with just the right amount of lushness to it. while a lot of uk dance music right now seems to use colourful synths in an unimaginative way, damus drip, glow and fizz at every turn in the same way that ill blu or funkystepz do. listening to mermaids like diving head-first into a lagoon. after that youve got three more killers: the iron assault of >beat of zen< and the few-more-intense >sequinny<, plus a ‘beat of zen remix by chicago juke titans dj rashad and dj earl. early support comes from lv, girl unit, sinden, brodinski, starkey and more

kapitel 2, and once everything is new! the collaboration of talented young producers and skilled heroes of the scene provides a colorful picture of the current sound development of the label in 2011. between tempo throttled, acid infected dancefloorkillers of l kubic and old school groove monsters of tokra thaan in a remix of james flavour up to grinding minimal beats with hypnotic-flashing sounds of trockensaft, to chameleon tracks from swen weber, which welcomes you with a dancehall impregnated beat in a 4/4 beat corset, which is ironed in the course of its construction and stay suddenly like a stomping and snorting steam train in the ear canal. and if then hardy hard mates early nineties rave influences with house vocals and flat-fuzz comes with a ghostly- kicking sampletrack around the corner which is just as hip hop as electro, it is clear, that these pieces are absolute killers of their guild, from the first to the last track, and each of them is conspicuous by its own distinctive aesthetic. originality is all

night slugs present the >waterworx< 12 inch from jam city. following on from last years >magic drops<, this is the south london producers second full salvo for the label. where magic drops was on a grime/crunk tip, waterworx is a portal into jcs unique universe via stripped down, tracky house. on this 12 inch he clears his substantial cache of club material before focussing on his debut album, to follow later this year.

cologne based collective laut & luise is happy to present you its first release. right on time with summers peak coming, berlins dürerstuben made two tracks perfectly fitting to the running season: >sonnenblut am platz der perlen< (a1) combines the gloomy atmosphere of the last winter and the warm feeling of todays sun to create an absolutely outstanding piece of music. >tira mi su< (a2) eases up on the tempo to let you catch a breath and enjoy the day with some hip-house, as the two guys call it. last but not least our dear friend constantijn lange provides us with a more fast paced version of >sonnenblut am platz der perlen< (b1), giving it a more clubby appeal without losing the vibe of the original track.

yes ... we release records. yes, its marvellous to see that journey from the spring to the sea, that spark of inspiration in an artists eye as it traverses its way to a beautifully packaged piece of 180g vinyl ... but sometimes, its also nice to remember why we started a label in the first place and to visit that dusty corner of the studio where synths, patch cables and spring reverbs lie in wait, taunting us go beyond that perfect 3am comfort zone of the 8 bar loop, hazy red/orange lights and aromatic combustibles.
in order words, heres what we did last summer ... two new ifeel studio tracks to stimulate your solar sensibilities, guest starring (via the wonders of skype) richard hawleys band, a reclusive mittle european synthesist and (lest we forget) his eccentric and slightly mad octogenarian lawyer.

finally ! the new ep from gopher. this one is a follow up from a bunch of remixes that alex had released over the last few last months for autokratz, etienne de crecy, light year, alb, pacific & sovnger. it gives us a good idea musically of what his album with patrick devin could be about !! some of the reactions about these remixes were >amazing< (boys noize), >brilliant< (groove armada), >absolutely love it< (david, autokratz), >quality !< (spiller), >favorite track !< (reset !), >on adore, ça tue< (soulwax)… ok, >invasion< is electronic music, but above all, thats f… good music ! vintage synths, harmonies, vocoder and other surprises ! who are the invaders? if they are as fresh as they seem, then we welcome them with open arms! >virages< takes us where the mastery of alex is well known. a track more radical, more oriented towards the dance floor. a funk and dirty bass line that drives until the arrival of a big 303 lead. mmmmh, yes !

released in may last year, his thwack ep showcased the kind of pulsing, throbbing techno sound that few other producers can equal in intensity. now we bring you the remixes.

slamming remix ep. the first track of this ep is a special vinyl version which is a bit more trippy than the 2010 original. the second one is a remix by solan who take the vocals and pitch them down to create a fantastic detroit-styled remix. matthias meyer and patlac who are well known from their latest releases on labels like cecille, liebe*detail and baalsaal contribute with the second remix, an incredible tech-house bomb that will surely do the job on every floor of this planet. last but not least filtertypen spice up the original with their unique rhythms and some fresh new chords.…

in denmark, there rages a lively and experimental techno scene - and its not only a recent phenomenon. the best proof are phono and kemi, two danish imports to the berlin record label, highgrade records. the two chaps complement each other in a musically virtuoso fashion: phono, jacob thiessen, spent his childhood playing around with sequencers and drum machines: over the years he has stuck to this passion and as such, has developed a reputation as an experienced house and techno producer. kim kemi, by contrast, has been a dj since the beginning, and since the 90s has been one of the key figures in the copenhagen club scene. together they have not only performed regularly at the biggest events in denmarks capital, but have also ensured through their many releases, ever changing accents and atmospheres on the turntables. this wealth of combined musical experience can be heard instantly on their latest outing for highgrade – >decompose<. the three tracks, >decompose<, >exterminators< & >last night< assemble rhythms that come from punk, elegant voices and dizzying loops a multi-layered sound excursion. the result is a perfectly produced ep, but one that has not been ironed smooth. with the >made in denmark< seal of quality, phono and kemi bring some extra depth to the party attitude

new yorks dream team return with a three tracker of floor-friendly deep house and techno. mr saturday night himself eamon harkin and steve oneauff raney have been relatively quiet since the release of their >word to the wise< ep last summer, but they have been busy. in the few months since harkin & raney released their mix of corinne for on the prowl/scion av, they have been hard at work in the studio, mixing with nick chacona (mood music/wurst music company), djing, and working on solo projects coming soon on throne of blood!

the debut album from adele on vinyl lp.

onno is a highly dosed dancing pill, pop one and your rubber legs turn into those of fred astaire. his last release already proved that he knows how to make you put yo hands up in da air! now, heres his latest little treat >hablando loco ep< upon you number 048. the title track opens with some sweet vocals and then drills into your a1 memory banks with the spanish monolog from el commandante. on b2 hes quite content with the few words : >i like that beat<. but onno likes the repetetive use of vocals like a fitness trainer trying to squeeze that last drop of sweat out of you. gavin herlihy, who some of you know from cocoon, takes a subtler approach to the track with his remix that writhes in the scented oils that is house-deepness.

how many people would have believed such a thing could work? would diva-like vocal grace and cool, calculated club sound efficiency not react like matter and anti-matter upon contact with one another? yet perhaps this is where the secret of her distant charm lies, the glamorously crafted cool, the vague elusiveness of aérea negrot. last year the venezuelan vocal wonder silenced any doubters with her first single >all i wanna do<, creating a new platform for her boundless range of musical expression alongside her career singing with hercules & love affair. now her second 12 inch is coming out on bpitch - just in time to set the tone for her coming solo album. the berlin sound wizard tobias freund is on hand once more to produce and mix ìright body, wrong timeî. he has commanded the mixing desk for a whole host of artists and labels from minus to warner over the last twenty years or so and made himself a regular fixture in the bpitch sound cosmos with his production work for ellen allien, dance disorder, heartthrob and indeed aérea negrot

we present you the newly born imprint outernational recordings. the kick off for this unique vinyl series is by basque county native kastil who sets the right tone with three wonderful disco edits at a mid-tempo / slomo pace. since uploading these tracks to his soundcloud page, the feedback has been enormous. side a contains the long, slow and loopy back to philadelphia, where kastil cleverly plays with the vocals and delay and creates a highly tense build up. theres no doubt that some large players in the very popular disco edit culture will play this one out. on the b1 side you find the track smd. a track which received great feedback by some key figures on soundcloud. this track is the ultimate pre-lude for the summer. fortunately, this is being released just early enough to enjoy this during the european and northern american summer. with again beautiful vocals floating through the track, this track definitely reminds one of a hot day in the local park. the b2 track is called rolls royce. perfect as the last track of this release since its a long edit which ends with a very atmospheric piano solo that keeps on floating through the last few minutes of the track. all and all, these edits will definitely make some heads turn after the date of release. supported by: cosmic boogie, dicky trisco, the legendary 1979 orchestra, sleazy beats recordings, ben la desh, 78 edits, osvaldo wilson, mannmademusic, gitchell moore

supported by: ame, dixon, djulz, martyn, basic soul unit, peter van hoesen, scuba, deetron, jimpster, luke solomon, lexx, arto mwambe, nic fianciulli, laurent garnier, fred everything, reboot, josh wink, alex dallas, catz n dogz, shit robot, benji b, karotte, dj nature, hunee, roland appel, tony rodriguez, meat, ewan pearson, .. mild pitch proudly welcome tim toh for their 10th release. tim first appeared on the international radar with his striking three-part series >join the resistance< on philpot records that instantly put him on the map and into the crates of djs worldwide. further releases and remixes for tiny sticks, ornaments and last but not least his remix for manuel tur on delusions of grandeur made it only logical to have the young pforzheim resident contribute an ep for mild pitch. >ménage à trois< sees the young german return with his very own distinct style that sticks out from a million. imagine kyle hall, omar s and maurice fulton riding a merry-go-round: this is not for everyon

well known from a couple of releases and his last album >the tracks are alive< on freerange records in 2010 dave pezzner brings out his first ep on 8bit records. he comes with a wonderful deep 4 tracker perfect for summertime showing all his talent how to work with rhodes chords and melody hooklines in a way you might never heard before

here comes the eighth release in the line, pressure cooked by christian wunsch. three slices of fine modern techno, but with strong roots on tradition. buried mistakes opens fire with clean drum programming and punchy beats. spacey arpeggios and subtle drones are the makings of this movie. on the flip side, complete surrender uses similar rhythm coordinates, clean percussion sounds programmed with extreme taste, constantly evolving until the strings come in, creating a sci-fi futuristic mood, perfect for techno travellers. inevitable war is the last piece slower tempo, intelligent drone work out, dark atmospheres lying on a single kick, growing to make a complex beat as the minutes go on. they call it deep techno out there. a departure from the hard edged sounds on behalf of a mental way of understanding techno.
