olm029 - layo & bushwacka! - double a side summer gone/what do you say now layo and bushwacka! spent most of last year recording, the first offering from this period came at the end of last year with their endangered ep on plus 8. we now present their first release on their own label in eleven months. summer gone is a groove that starts on an up that slowly breaks down and brings in sounds, voices, rhythm and then kicks back with a really strong vocal and groove. what do you say now hits from the moment it begins with a stripped down sound and dub vocal and then slams with strong percussion and then back to the groove. totally tested out by layo & bushwacka! but supported big by the only two other djs with copies, richie hawtin and laurent garnier.

back at the tail end of the last millennium bbe released a comprehensive overview of house music in the latter stages of the 20th century. >henry street music: the story so far - 1993 to 1999< was a slice of superior contemporary club classics featuring all of the key players, architects and music makers of the day. todd terry, armand van helden, kenny dope, dj sneak, 95 north, robbie rivera, davidson ospina, ralphi rosario, mike delgado, king britt, and a handful of others under various alter egos and nom de plumes. it was a given that they were all great records, what was all the more impressive was that they all originated from the same recording home, henry street music. a label conceived and devised by johnny demairo, an italian-american from jersey who talked the talk, could easily have been an extra in the sopranos, and was known affectionately as the shark. to others he was just plain johnny d, and one half of the production duo johnick with studio partner nicky p palermo jr. tracks such as d2- d2 by dj duke are collectors classics and will be re-released and re-mastered on vinyl for the first time in over 10 years

records like this dont come very often. thankfully it seems there are still people out there who care enough to create beautiful projects and timeless music. after the ingenious june white label came out last summer, these days records office fell in love with it and without wasting any time rushed to contact the mysterious artist and propose an album. although well-hidden in a secret back-alley of west london where june lives and dreams music, his unique approach on acid house, synth wave, chicago house and 80s nostalgia was too good to be left unnoticed and has been favored by people such as panorama bars steffi, mathematicss owner hieroglyphic being, terre thaemlitz and the clone record store to name but a few. almost half a year after his >alleviation< ep, junes debut album >cytheria< has been realized and features a 12inch sampler with two brand new tracks and two remixes by critically acclaimed dj sprinkles on one of junes older tracks >lost area<. terre thaemlitz aka dj sprinkles, who has been well renowned for his contributions in music and arts in general for the past two decades, delivers an epic remix that takes one to a forgotten musical territory somewhere between early warp records, hacienda, 80s new york club sound and older balearic music. the albums cd version includes 10 new songs and 4 from the artists back catalogue and retains a great balance between dance floor orientated tracks and synth-pop.

psq005 is furesshus follow up 12 inch release to last years trio of tracks (psq002) that garnered attention from ben klock, sigha and marcel dettmann, who continues to play out his music regularly. furesshus bleak and powerful remix of l-ow (psq003) has been criminally under appreciated, and now his second 12 inch on project squared (psq005) will showcase a more house influenced, but still techno at its core, sound with >lucid< and >all i want<.

after the loud aproval of their first vinyl >green vision<, released on the german label night drive music, the aquarell project (headed by marco sarto and andrea paganin) finally land at sabotage recordings. the title track , >creep<, is a forecasting dancefloor oriented hit, conceived to last through times: its a groovy explosion of house percussions, warm low frequencies, sensual voices and relentless rhythms. >you are gold< is an impressing hypnotic tune with a technological taste, exalted by percussive elements. on side b, alex piccini remixes >you are gold<, while re-up reworks >creep<: both cuts are powerful but elegant apt for every kind of dj

lost&found is einomas new ep, out in february 2011 on shipwrec. the record features one long new track on the a-side as well as two older and previously unreleased pieces for the b-side. the main track >bla< was conceived after editing real-time and live sessions made for gigs after the release of last years >tvenna< ep. the sound material >bla< was initially made from was quite old and the idea and title of the ep >lost and found< came about, reworking of older ideas in a new setting. the a-side demonstrates the more dancefloor side of einoma while the b-side explores the more dark and dense regions einoma have become more known for.

sampler 12 inch of tom tragos upcoming album >iris<! leading up to tom tragos debut album >iris<, to be released april 2011, comes this three track sampler. the tracks featured here show the diverse nature of the album, which can be best described as a futuristic soul album. after releasing his double ep >voyage direct<, early 2009, tom has spent the last two years finding his signature sound. the outcome of this search has resulted in >iris<. where >voyage direct< was his homage to disco, >iris< deals with all of toms musical inspirations. shaping these inspirations into a new sound and creating an exciting mix is where tom really succeeds. the three tracks on the sampler all deal with merging the old with the new. >being with you< is a match made in heaven between electronic music and r&b, >space balloon< lets disco and funk make love in a spaceship. what you do is a future version of late 80s chicago hip house, which features tyree cooper (who, together with fast eddie, invented the genre).

dj pepo presents: inspired! pepos own label to release his consistently evolving techno sound. dj pepo is one of the pioneers and most quoted djs of spains techno scene. each booth pepo touches with one of his naturally electric sets is filled with both rhythm and force, dazzling audiences all over spain. speaking of pepo is to speak of an authentic reference of spanish electronic music who has had a hand in the scenes history and evolution. he is a time bomb in the shape of music, getting richer with age and improving on each and every set with unexpected technical manuevers that jolt audiences alive and bathe their senses with musical delights. this release is another showcase of his pumping big room techno with the sharp edge, this time backed up by 3 tracks from his friends dj stay, dj lizana & smull and last but not least joton from the new rhythmic record store and label! dont sleep over this one!

two previously unreleased jimpster remixes of seal available on this limited white label. the a side side is a raw, detroit tinged mid-tempo jam with seals amazing vocals making this one a solid party starter. flip over for weight of my mistakes which sees jimpster flip things into an epic modern soulful house track laden with real strings, warm rolling bass and tight afro drums. these are his first remixes outside of his freerange label since his mighty remix for josh wink last year.

following the success of his debut ep, komisch is delighted to put out the next instalment from sp-x. like his first release, the three tracks on field lines never end capture the essence of contemporary techno - austere and functional, yet deeply resonating. field construction starts with crackle of a broken power cable accompanying brittle percussion and a juggernaut rhythm, before dank filters, distorted riffs and a combination of doubled up claps and hissing hats bring the track to an irresistibly dark climax. internalize follows a similar path, but straight away sp-x plots a more ominous course, with a muffled filter making way for jarring riffs, a grubby acid line and killer claps. last but certainly not least, flux is constructed using dense rhythms, deadweight, iron bar beats and a howling siren riff that sounds like it came from beyond. all the while, sp-xs rasping, firing percussion weaves in and out. these are deadly effective techno tracks, streamlined for use on big speakers - but dont take our word for it, try them out yourselves!

sonic groove welcomes berlin based friend, italian born producer dino sabatini to its family of artists. dinos brand of hypnotic industrial tech noise hit the spot with many last year with his double ep daughter of phorsys on killer techno imprint prologue, germany, a killer release that many top techno dj supported. now for his first release of 2011 dino continues exploration into the dark side of the industrial techno sonic groove with his four track small step ep. a masterpiece of deep dark electronic music ranging from peak floor burners to dark deep mind burners that techno & industrial lovers from around the universe will surely love.

flapjack records break through chefs mark & stevens are back with their follow up vinyl release to their debut discopetry , which was released in 2010. this new ep >hello nightlife< is an amazing topper to an already delicious and delectable cake. i cant say enough about how sugery sweet each and every facet of this ep is beginning with the stunning design down to every last lickery boom tiss of the beats.

oslo says hello to 2011 with a great ep again from one of the best electronic producers at the moment, guillaume & the coutu dumonts. we all know his eps on oslo, so we can be sure that he will not dissapoint. on the a side we find >praise to the beat maker< an amazing track with lyrics by dave aju, you will never take this track out of your mind. the rhythm is 100% guillaume. the second track of the ep >promess-lovin< gives the main melody to the release, and with some female vocals remains us one of the best old school house periods. the last track >all you have to do< is a very slow and musical track, wich keeps the line of the ep and at the same time add something different.

the niallist is back after his first release of 2010 on little rock records - his last (house machines >a.c/i.d.<) selling out its limited edition run and gaining support from james murphy, trevor jackson, cosmo vitelli, ali renault and old school acid legend adonis.
>i came< is favela-funk meets chicago house, with the sultry vocals of ms mac d lending it an accessible and sexy edge. it has already gotten plays on kiss fm by sinden, and on bbc radio 1 by both vic galloway and optimo. the release has been getting some strong reviews already and the remixes have been proving popular on the blogosphere, especially brassicas icy italo remake.

dokument .01 features two tracks of beatless inner city industrial ambient. >strung valve checkout< is a gorgeous 11 minute sequence of piano-fuelled drones. >dada fish sticks< is equally affecting, a lulling industrial classical mesh of sound with hints of melody. what makes this release particularly special is the combination of talents behind the music. dadavistic orchestra is a collaboration between the black dog and 3 former members of the psychick warriors of gaia. both are recognised innovators in electronic music who have been hugely influential and popular throughout their careers. the two groups have been close for many years, and their musical collaboration has evolved over the last year, with dokument 1 being just the first work to be released.

if it is about contemporary house music, there is no way of avoiding the northern djs & producers. first and foremost with roberto rodriguez aka manolo, who has shaped his personal funk infected old-school vibe over the last years and helped the house revive without forgetting from where it came from. his future beat investigators strictly followed the detroit heritage and his acid kings membership gave us lust for the roland tb 303 again. the bermuda project came back to cosmic again and had more than an impact on the nu disco styles. it is his pertinent mix of soulful, funky & functional dancefloor and his his effective productions who convinced the tastemakers worldwide and prepared his ground for top notch releases on labels like compost, 2020vision, freerange or delusions of grandeur and remixes for acts like yoko ono, tigerstripes, jay shepheard, the timewriter, marmion, crazy p, bellringers or vanessa daou. now the time has come for his own platform called serenades, featuring the manolesque ep - for those who like it deep, down & funky!

what a journey! well, these guys have been around for a while- they have gone through: rave, jazz, krautrock, garage, detroit, house, hip-hop, disco, folk, dubstep, electronica, funk, punk, wave, chicago house, handmade music and soul. all those nights at clubs, the records, the shelves, the dirt in the second-hand record shops, the stacked audio- and studio magazines in their toilets or elsewhere in the house, the hours spent making their own radio-shows, hundreds of hotels checked in and out of, dozens of sound-checks done. last but not least, the revivals, the subgenres, the fusion - well these peeps have given real influential input into some of these (sub)genres in the past. >lovin< is the second single release of the upcoming >alex and the grizzly< album which is due out in april 2011. alex barck is on the vocals together with lois longerling, who is known for her work with dollkraut. andre lodemann delivers a smart remix giving the tune his trade-mark sound and putting onto the house-dancefloors. prommer and barck are on tour with their own live show.

jorge ciccioli is not a newbie anymore. he remixed kleinschmager audios >audio3< for rrygular, last year. and consistently in early 2011 he delivers his first techno-stomper. although with full focus on the dancefloor, >jawa< doesnt need any stereotype offbeat emphasis but throws around percussins in semiquavers. on the flip side there is no time for you to relax! the hypnotic winter solstice remix by tim xavier really knocks your socks off!

two new faces on freakshow belong to a crazy spanish combo called kasbah zoo! established some years ago through the union of alex and nicolas who are based in barcelona. after 10 years of individually experience in music production and nightlife, they decided to create a new project where their maturity can do a refined music product.as a result they already had some underground hits during the last years. so far the two guys were releasing tracks on zoo:technique and rawthentic music. their next step took them straight into the intl. freakshowi&#769,s artist pool. with their original version of the title track i&#768,palabrasi&#770, kasbah zoo is unleashing a damn good piece of pumping techhouse. alongside the original we bring you 2 more remixes coming from christian burkhardt and romano alfieri. both are as hot as hell, too. all in all one must say that this record is keeping iti&#769,s dynamic groove from the start to the very end & it will help perfectly to get fully loaded from head to toe!

what needs to be said about move d? overused, though the veteran tag is, david moufang has been producing excellent music for many, many years. yet, the last few have seen him receive particular acclaim, especially for his more house-flavoured work - buoyed by his increased reputation as a dj... already played by ricardo villalobos

second vinyl, featuring 3 tracks taken from the debut album by dj w!ld.

recorded in the winter/spring of 2009, first released in june 2009. at the time i called it my failed kompakt techno experiment, i started out with that minimal beat in mind but ended with something different. the title was the first thing i started with after watching some miss helen mirror on tv at the period, still love the title really. songs became longer and i discovered the delay while recording. this second record was the first one were i started settling on an sound of my own. some weeks after recording the screaming girls on the last track during their sunday afternoon youth group activity a baby fetus was found on their field with the mother being one of the girls

well rounded kick off 2011 with the deep space bump-n-hustle of littlefoots aptly named >interplanetary< ep.
all 4 tracks contrast tuff dry drums & low sweeping subs with cosmic atmospheres and twilight melodies and chords. theres a unique strictness in the drums here, less swung than typical garage but with innovative programming that shows a producer keen to explore new possibilities. as ever with well rounded and our producer friends, we are celebrating influences from the past - think classic 4/4 uk garage in the vein of dem 2, mixed with early 90s rave sounds and welded together in a motor city car plant. with added post-dubstep production sensibilities, littlefoot is creating an unheralded hybrid sound. all 4 tracks contribute to the completeness of the ep - we go in hard, explore different areas and complete our journey with the last track. we hope you enjoy this trip.

terror danjah is back on planet mu after last years >gremlinz< compilation reintroduced him to the world at large. since then, as well as planet mu, he has released a single on hyperdub, one on butterz with more to come.

south africa to paris back to new york... as we toured south africa last year we all came to enjoy a seed coming out of sa named black coffee and what a year it has been for him. the man has taken the music world by storm with his deep vibes and timeless songs that will stand the test of time. we signed this record almost a year to the date and have waited to get the perfect team together that we feel could take on this record. black coffee joins forces with tsepo on vocals to deliver >never saw you coming< a record that has serious written all over it.. on remixes duties the almighty franck roger & dj spinna. we will let the record speak for itself, enjoy this project that is very close to our hearts...

james ruskin takes a break from an impressive release offensive on his own blueprint label to remix alpha, the first single that was taken from omega, robert hoods concept album of last year

2010 has been a massive year for jozif, emerging as one of the most talked about artists in house music. the follow-on from the first sell-out edition, “beats in space”, “brick jane” goes further to cement his place as one of the vanguard of the london music scene, and propel fist or finger to the status of a buy-on-sight label. jozif’s title track – the dancefloor focused ‘fist’ of the package – goes in deep, the momentum continuously building as the track twists and turns through a landscape of deep slabs of bass assured deployment of subtle guitar plucks and piano chords, and dreamy xylophones. finally releasing into an epic crescendo, jozif only allows the moment to last just long enough, before all the elements are stripped right back as the journey starts all over again. brick jane draws out a journey, continuing to morph and subtly affix new elements throughout its 7 minutes. the arrangement is simple yet the progression is deft, subtle and effective, creating a vibe that can be employed at any given time of the night, offering a truly different context. craig’s ‘finger’ re-interpretation picks up the thread where his “beats in space” remix left off. crackling static laced with woozy atmospheres and paranoid utterings flip the vibe of the original completely on its head. richards displays a completely unique ability to stretch the original track far beyond its character into a completely different dimension, building a warped soundscape that feels as though it was recorded in a chasm deep deep underground. a mind-bending journey from a truly multi talented artist, in the truest sense of the word

after the big succes of hi tech booty, we searched for some really special guys out there to put hand on ahmets bomb. well here it is. a1 comes from maetrik which was a strong desire of ahmet and for sure an excellent choice. he totally brings in his own style while getting a little bit closer to the darkside of the track. a2 is a special collab between rainer, which we know from the last regular stock5 record together with cesare vs disorder and viudez, a mexican guy that seems to have a very nice influence to the production style. the vocal is very present but placed, arranged and transformed geniously. for sure a weapon! b1 is written by our special friend chris sylvester aka inxec. starting with a very housy groove, it falls quickly into a hypnotic mood that is unique in inxec productions. he really knows what the dancefloor requires and for this we are very happy to have him again in our release roster. b2 presents a very new and fresh artist called rico casazza. he interprets the track in a very detroit way, works verz little with the vocal but hits it very perfectly for the sense of the track. after this debut on our imprint you can be sure to hear more of this young guy in the next time!!!

keyboard masher have happily joined the all ears roster, debuting with their second stunning ep luckily for you, we also managed to secure a small box of their incredible debut km editions 1 ep from early last year this ep sold out immediately through the handful of uk outlets lucky enough to get a few, and thankfully the boys kept a few back for a rainy day ! really very special indeed

keyboard masher came to our attention with their incredible debut km editions 1 ep early last year, selling out immediately through the handful of uk outlets lucky enough to get a few. as a fairly under the radar operation from london town, enthusiasts and champions of the good stuff, km have kindly allowed us to help them move the sensibly titled and equally brilliant km editions 2 ! picking up plaudits from titans of balearia like phil mison, moonboots etc, km editions 2 is a heady mix of early 80s, synth drenched boogie (amor & satisfaction), arabic influenced folk-funk (discotheque arabe) and a beautiful alan parsons style mid-tempo jam in the shape of >tartari< really very special indeed...

huge nick curly 12 inch 2011 starts with a blast !! big with: loco dice, tiefschwarz, reboot, dj sneak, sascha dive, tobi neumann, simon baker, 2000andone, daniel stefanik, sebo k, gregor tresher, monika kruse, raresh, tim green and many more... cécille starts in 2011 with a huge release of the label owner nick curly. nick shows with this record his experiences over the last year. the a side azylum starts with a beautiful melodic string and takes the listener in a world of wonder, darkness and magic. second track on a side named arkum, goes forward to the dancefloor and is definitly a big groover. the long b side with cozumel is more hypnotic and a typical massive nick curly track.

the new ilya santana, after burning jupiter and erin last year, that were supported by everyone from agoria over kenny hawkes to the usual suspects such as justus köhncke, rub n tug and pete herbert

massive tracks with along lasting appeal are on the rende-vous here.. ready to be enchanted. supported by norman nodge, 2000 and one, ivan smagghe, charles webster -always a hit every gig,.. artwork direction and design by dennis donahue

right after the success of his massive crude ep on adam beyer s famous drumcode imprint, patrick comes up with the titletrack dome - and boy what a follow-up it is! over ten minutes patrick keeps the tension high, teases us with the raw force of dome over just a few little kickdrum pauses until the track goes through the roof in on hell of a break! on the flip we have hot mess, another primetime weapon, and this one patrick produced together with per hammar, who made a name for himself with releases on great stuff, starlight and kant over the last year, but it was especially his track el salvador on mija rec. a few months ago that introduced per to a bigger audience, causing quite a stir on dancefloors worldwide!

following on from their last two sell out eps, foto recordings (run by ali ooft!) enlist the talents of deep space orchestra for release number three in the catologue. first up >riding in my imaginary jeep< showcases their trademark old synths/modern production aesthetic to full effect, taking in classic drum machines and warm synth lines to produce an epic piece of deep house. second track >sir shina< sees them doing some deft sample-manipution with a big chugging midtempo jam the result. ooft! meanwhile give >riding< the once-over, beefing up the low end whilst retaining most of the musical parts.

nice price deal !!! dj panik and yox do the honours again on frances number one drum and bass label. with catchy synth leads and scatty beats these tracks have been damaging dancefloors around europe for the last few months.

ltd repress !!! where to begin with >likewise<...from a handful of cds that emerged early last spring >likewise< was by far the record of the night at diddys house party in miami. it then hit the top spots in mixmags charts and became one of the most wanted tracks by every a list dj during ibiza this summer and is still being championed by djs such as luciano and lee van dowski !
