intelligent new skool breaks 4 tracker!!

perc trax is proud to unveil its first new artist of 2009. andre ruello aka material object is originally from australia and has now settled in europe to push his producing as far as it will go. his sound is a dense, grooving brand of techno a world away from the hollow cookie-cutter mnml currently clogging up most of europe. his tracks evolve and morph as waves of effects and synths wash over the listener, all riding upon tough jerking grooves that nod to classic speedy j, luke slater and adam beyer.

after their ass kickin remix for matthias meyer on liebe/detail and the last singles on sasses mood music and was not was, boogie drama celebrate their debut release on systematic recordings. boogie drama (what a great name, he?) is a collaboration of the three protagonists from milan, italy, leaded by magazini generali resident dj lele sacchi. their biggest hit record so far has been the bassline monster >sardoz< on soundplant which has been featured amongst others on the first volume of steve bugs >bugnology< compilation!

poker flat owner and visionary dj & producer steve bug recently celebrated the 10th anniversary and 100th release for the label. continuing this buzz, and as always, confirming his rightful place at the top, steve is now gearing up to release his fourth full artist album. the >two of a kind< ep is a teaser of things to come as the long player drops in a few months time, and what a teaser it is…! once again joining forces with long-time compadre clé, of märtini brös fame, the pair whip up a deep storm, resulting in the solemn midnight swagger of month of sip. cool, metallic pads and trademark tight drums lay the groundwork for a momentous twisted synth line to wrap its way around the senses. full of tension, drama and stone-cold style, its a track that will define the nights - or indeed the mornings - dancefloor adventures. working solo on the b-side, and in-all-outclassic bug mode, steve builds perhaps his most drifting, euphoric vision of modern house music to date. beautiful, phasing synth stabs open this epic-vibed slow burner whose refined elements stay pure and true throughout. if youre searching for dynamic, addictive underground house music, full of history and yet remarkably modern, look no further

2006 breaks split ep by pro 7 vs lapiwe and dindinside!

well known on the dnb and dubstep scene for his fiendishly twisted artwork, uk creative genius monsta is also a beast of a producer. in this, his third release for subtrakt he teams up with >mr key< to bring us >space raiders<, a vocal dubstep demon of truly gargantuan proportions, so huge, in fact that it threatens to bring down mankind itself. or maybe its just a packet of crisps? dean rodell bravely attempts to contain the threat on his remix, but an army of space raiders march up out of their packet and flatten the whole city using a supernatural arsenal of sonic weapons that pull down skyscrapers with rasping bass and fry a million brains with shrieking sirens that can be heard in even the far corners of the galaxy. on the second remix dnb hero >raiden< stands up, and the guerilla war begins. taking his inspiration from the paranoid b-movies of the cold war era he morphs the original lead sounds into something so spooky and bizarre the space raiders have no choice but to pack their flying saucers and piss off back to zetareticuli. phew, that was close. supported by maryanne hobbs (bbc radio1)

ricardo villalobos playlist!! the endless white of the far north. the opening melodies of adam marshalls >north at night< can be heard faintly over the whistling wind. a small black dot appears at the centre of the distant horizon. at first it appears to be still, but gradually we recognize movement. over the next few minutes the shape begins to grow until it has defined the image of a man walking towards us. as he approaches, the music grows clearer. like the warmth of the first sunlight >rose mountain< radiates its glow through the use of a flurry of rhodes electric piano chords. adams signature percussion permeates the dub and binds its elements into an infectious groove. >mfb flex< is the counter balance to the organic flow of the other cuts and molts the warmth into a techno roller designed for the long player mix. marshall said… >ive long been intrigued by that incredible tapestry of tundra and taiga which constitutes the arctic and sub arctic of our country. ive read about it, written about it and even pulled up my parka once and gone there, yet, like all but a very few canadians, ive had no real experience of the north. ive remained, of necessity, an outsider. and the north has remained for me a convenient place to dream about, spin tall tales about, and in the end, avoid<

great deep new tech house stuff! maybe the best 90 watts record so far!

miguel migs recent artist album those things received massive support from critics and music fans alike selling more than 40.000 copies worldwide.

bukaddor & fishbeck mit einem post-chicago track der alles mit sich zieht was nicht bei drei auf den bäumen ist. mal wieder extrem überzeugend die beiden. ivan smagghe sagt: >just back from 5 hours set at  fabric... this was the record of the night from far... both tracks are amazing. i think my house record of 2009 so far...< also big with piemont, mihalis safras, toni rios, technasia, pierce, matt tolfrey, markus kavka and many many more

their first two releases sold out instantly and are already super sought after 12inches in what has become something of a crowded market for re edits and amends. after hearing the labels next two releases we jumped on the chance to share them with you! four killer and far less obvious tracks from various scissor wielding producers, head and shoulders (ahem !) above the competition. limited quantities as always folks get your beard on...

magnesia: massive club record with an amazing remix by bart b more. timmy vegas is currently climbing the airplaycharts in belgium.eddy cabrera vs thomas gold is played by everyone from andy cato (groove armada) to eric prydz and pete thong. amro is the upcoming belgian talent, supported by peter gelderblom and axwell.

along with number 60 in the highgrade catalogue there‘s a new producer team, joining the highgrade posse: markus schatz who scored so far with releases together with tom clark for highgrade and by himself on labels like opossum and freizeitglauben. he worked out this release with brett longman from paris, known from one of france‘s most prolific labels logistic rec. with „dope on plastic“ both start a dub and percussion rollercoaster- ride: the stripped down structure in the beginning unfolds seamlessly to a wildly grooving dub-inferno. similarly funky „push it“ continues this direction: dodgy fm-sounds meet weird synth bleeps plus a whole load of rhythm - the trackname is to be taken literally here! on the flip-side schatz & longman in „running“ are adding some fine dubby ingredients to there rhythm patterns, next exit detroit, one might say. moody without being cheesy, that‘s how we like it. „good vibes“ is zigzagging elegantly, with deep pulsating melodies worked together with an uplifting groove to a fast-paced and atmospheric track.

incl. fernando daxta remix ! apart from chocolate, beers and clouds, belgium has definitely one good thing to offer and that is the high quality, variety and maturity of its electronic music scene. denis moulin and laurent acoustix (malistix) are long time respected players in the area, playing a live set fulfilled by, far beyond hype, pure timeless deep electronic moments. produced by heavy analog machinery, the change has been marking the local spirits around for some years now and we thought it was about time to put it out on vinyl and give it some extra hippie yeah treatment...

four women, four tracks, four bombs! supported by laurent garnier, paolomojo,tiefschwarz, milton jackson, anjaschneider, len faki, nhar,..

after the success of >disco trix vol. one< hardgroove continues the party vibes with trix vol. two, yet more familiar classics are wacked thru the sampler by mr ben and pumped up for peaktime useage in true hardgroove fashion. this ep features 2 different mixes of >dollar bill y all< as we couldn t decide of the definative version so lazily put both on, >reject 2< which was commissioned as a remix for spain s >dj nuke< but unused and >in the middle< which in our humble opinion is the finest slice of disco fromage sims has created so far

a new killer selection from the dclassics crew vault... another 4 tracks to die for in their rare original versions, gently and respectfully remastered for full jazz dance classics decerning dancefloor action... maybe the rarest release so far for the soul all timers... impossible to find sweet popcorn part1 and 2 pasted together for incredible drumbreak thru original moog filters action. on the bside, and for more drumsound, we ve choosen to release the killer atmospherique jazz drum number hallucinogene, a beat diggers delight and very hard to locate these days. to top it up nicely, you ll get a psychedelic sitar dancefloor winner, and an amazing planet of the apes cover version for the headz.

first of all the ortloff is home to a couple of people. in the beginning mainly used for living, working and exhibitions the ortloff now has become a centre of art and music subculture at leipzig. inspired by this creative atmosphere, artists, designers and musicians came together to produce their own record. this interchange of ideas makes the forthcoming ep >ortloff 1< a unique piece of art and music

gogo music starts the year with another dope and deep release. continuing the liaison with south africa and katsaitis music we present blackcoffee feat. bucie and their title ‘,turn me on’,. blackcoffee is one of south africa s most respected house music artists and no stranger to gogo music as he belongs to the group shana, which already stormed the charts with our last release ‘,uyangichomela’,. as a dj blackcoffee played in all south african top clubs and scooped a sama award (south african dance music award) for best dance album in 2006. to date his fame is by far not bordered to south africa anymore, as he was for example chosen in 2006 and in 2007 to represent south africa at the red bull academy in barcelona, played numerous gigs in europe and released on real tone records.

limited pressing for this already cult track from tekitek...

full support: m-nus crew, remote area crew, martinez, matt star, tadeo, josh wink, andrew grant, laurent garnier, bryan zentz, marco carola, uto karem, mikel_e, cornell, joseph capriaty. new instalment of our label signed by one of the label owners soulrack, this time offering a very special release, a mixture of old school and minimal stuff. original track on side a is one of soulrack s best track so far, with complex arrangements over a solid rocker 909 groovy and acid 303, that track was done long time ago, some of the top labels interested on it, but finally he decided to release it on his label. on side b comes the remix, this time is for jpls from m-nus getting the basic elements, moving to minimal territories, a really interesting remix perfect for the early hours & after hours. and for closing the release our very own mute: makes his interpretation shuffling the beats a little beat moving soulrack s original to dance floor territories. last but not least one of our finest releases to date.

one of the uk’s most respected labels, huddtraxx never deviate far from their proper house manifesto. release no19 sees kelvin k, ex head honcho at moulton studios and a san fran stalwart. with that background, you know he knows a thing or two about deep house and he serves up 3 joints from the cooler spectrum of house that appeal to the heads whilst still naiiling the floor. a corking ep!!!

2001 double vinyl release!! includes hit singles muhammad ali, one step too far and we come 1!!

after almost two years of experience with labels suruba records and suruba digital, los suruba, alias below delmar and varo, dive into a new adventure: suruba x. a deeper, eclectic and more personal label than the previous, suruba x will be dedicated to minor styles, even considered as far from the dance floor . the 1st reference is starred by english artist alex grzybowski, who had his first appearance in the suruba family with the 8th release of suruba digital.this polar parts ep/suruba digital 008 has been his last release, but this english artist who started producing along wih his decks mate from sleaze club (leeds) simon baker has already released under aka the liptrick in labels such as 2020vision or infant records. this time, alex is presenting 4 tracks, two in the vinyl version and two extra tracks in the digital version of the release. all of them with an exquisite stylish house full of textures and layers, though in every track we can perceive how eclectic can this leeds artist be

best david keno release so far !! huge bouncy techhouse mover

new release on down the bush records, karl dread, a mysterious jamaican kubo dread based producer (as far as we know he actually lives on the hills of the famous blue mountain with the fierce desire of never coming down), delivers an up-lifting ep with the ever eclectic spirit of down the bush records. with this release, a true mastermind blend of dub, broken beats, house and afrobeat, electronic music goes global like never before. anbuley originated from ghana, and vienna based singer (works also with makossa and megablast) adds her vocals and afro vibes on the main track. when jamaica meets africa, a heat wave hits the dance floors!!!

electric arguments is the first fireman album in 10 years, and this song based album couldnt be more different than its predecessors. for those who dont know by now, the fireman is a collaborative project between music icon paul mccartney and revered producer youth. the pair first worked together in the 90s when they made two ambient dance albums. originally the firemans identity was anonymous and was eventually revealed by the press as being paul and youth. in september it was announced that the fireman would this year release their first brand new material in a decade and this time there was a big difference - the duo had found their voice. speculation began, one studio insider was reported as saying the new songs sounds like arcade fire meets led zeppelin. certainly so far, anyone who has already heard the album has commented on just how accessible electric arguments is, compared to the first two fireman albums. this album is an eclectic and diverse collection of songs that show paul is still interested in pure musical possibilities. each track was written and recorded in the space of one day. the fireman went into the studio with no plan or clear direction of how they wanted the album to sound. the project took a life of its own and the results will surprise anyone expecting to hear the previous sound of the band.

1 of wiggles biggest tunes so far slammin mainroom beats from jamie anderson remix duties from label boss nathan coles

ruede hagelsteins the modest theme has proven to be one of souvenirs most provocative releases so far. released in the summer, the tracks dramatic horn hook is so epic it belongs in a science fiction film and as a piece of forward thinking techno, it ranks among one of souvenirs best. now the track is back with a remix from souvenir spearheads tiefschwarz alongside a new track from berlin based ruede. semikolon is another dark and dubby deep tech-housy outing for ruede that begins with a dramatic spoken word by naneci and ominous organ stabs. as the track progresses it takes on a chicago house vibe re-imagined at 10am in the panorama bar. an urgent bell begins to ring through the track raising the tension as the vocal intones a surreal chant before giving way to huge synth stabs that lead the track into a slow motion emotional explosion. just when things can get any more hectic the crescendo sinks to silence compressing the energy before the beats emerge back in their earlier deep house guise. ali and bast schwarz take their turn at remixing the modest theme fresh from their incendiary remix of emad kamandians kamanche for souvenir 012. the signature dramatic horn riff remains albeit injected with new percussion lending the track a tough tech house appeal that places it within the context of 2008s underground house sound. both tracks are another addition to souvenirs impressive collection of music aimed at the head just as much as they are at the heart and feet.

its been a while since the last release by mark august on connaisseur, but now hes back with an extraordinary one. two tracks, both like a fairytale of a country far, far away. a fable, with mystic and mysterious animals and creatures, might best describe what mark had in mind while working on the tracks. the wasps from tunisia and the silver piggy – the main track on this release is an uncommon piece of music. it starts moody and with a stoic pumping beat, yet also a somehow laidback feeling. it then unexpectedly and surprisingly builds up to a monster of a track, working manically towards its climax. then however, over the length of the track, it completely transforms again, coming back to its beginning, as though nothing had ever happened. scorpions groove is a deep and dubby affaire.

boogie corporation is a project thats all about creating new music thats inspired by leftfield disco, electrofunk , alien abductions and terry thomas movies. early expeditions to outer space funk where conducted on 20:20 vision recordings recordings in the form of the rather out there lay the funk and dirty rip eps. and the good news is that boogie corporation are back and they are on a mission to bring back the boogie! bc are planning new missions to boldly go where no electronic discotheque has gone before. join us before its too late!

coyote return with a 4 track ep featuring the remix power of the mighty windsurf. >single handed< is a melodic uptempo percussion led groove, pianos and lush strings combine to uplifting effect whist still maintaining the balearic/dub vibe. >mongolia< is a more moody affair, a slo-mo voodoo trance stomp that takes you to the darker side of the balearic beat. >lay back< is a caribbean beach boogie featuring all the usual coyote elements, a slice of sunshine for the winter. windsurf step up to remix lay back to create a beautiful slice of pacifica, keeping up the high standard of remixing that is it balearic is becoming known for. the revolution continues… coyote back doing what they do best is it balearic…?-oh yeah

db carries his own weight in this third installment of his db edits series, just dont ask him to take the load! wanna be a lawyer or just lay around all day? jealous of the fellas that want to go all the way? mr. cooper takes a stand on the flip as well, showing how much he loves you all

steve bug: >killer ep! maybe the best morris audio so far! 100.000 % support!< also big with: martin landsky, lee jones, kiki, stacy pullen, claude van stroke, agnes, afrilounge, simon baker, akufen, federico molinari ...

the fabric mix cd done by the glimmers featured a version of this adonis cover done by this portugese art band (big in the 80s). this 12inch has a brand new 12 min long remix done by adonis himself b/w a steve poindexter remix of >querelle< and a circle jerk dub of adoniss classic no way back.

finally, 10 years after the official release, new massive remixes for this world hit. the voice is still maya, the remixes the mac project, get far & farolfi aka deelay club and pop trumpet club.

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

big with dave clarke !! the biggest release so far on the ever growing team recordings, vincent watson on the remix of this beautiful piece of vinyl by shirazi

last years breakspoll best single winners far too loud take their audio toolbox and set about dismantling the vocal monster innocent from the album. featuring the distinctive vocals of yolanda and some ungodly sonic trickery, bass action and arrangement tweakery this mix is really quite special.

fresh fish presents an ep which is so far that you don t even notice how close it is. colombian paulo olarte is coming with a 4 tracker piece of vinyl to make you dance and and get you in touch with deep love. passion in the midpoint this beats and pads are gonna make you sweat. hypnotizing tracks of the latenight excursion class, featuring layers on layers to create a carpet of sound that slowly gets your mind to upper levels from which it s difficult to come back. the vocals let us imeditly think of “love on the street” and “solo tu” (including isoleé remix), last one raised quite a storm and was played in every afterhour all over the globe and appeared on many compilations like sven väths ibiza mix cd “the sound of the 8th season” or dinky’s “get lost” mix. so romantic has never left the hamburg label and it seems that it is here to stay. “tan lejos tan cerca” what else can we say

after 3 succesfull releases, this label has slowly proven it self. stephane signore, the headhoncho of the label, has gathered a nice selection of artists around the label so far. wehbba, hertz, pedro delgardo, reaky and others. this 4th release is the next stephane signore single. on this release he has delivered 2 absolute monster tracks, and asked reaky and lars klein to deliver their remixes. lars klein brings his 2008 minimal inspired techno burner. clicks and bits with a techno attitude. reaky, one of the most succesfull new comers to this game, takes it into a completely other direction, a well funky tribal explosion with a subtle throbbing bassline vibe. proper, rolling techno for the masses!

ruff loaded with their biggest track so far, as they change tack and get on the ibiza rocks tip. its makeover time for nickleback and katie perry, both given serious club cred with pumped up splendid. huge crossover potential, early plays have caused a big stir

big with: davide squillace, lee burridge, steve lawler, laurent garnier, ante perry,katotte,thomas schumacher, shinedoe..italys young odds label has been gathering a lot of support over the last few years with its string of quality tech inspired release featuring artists such as elia casetti orchestra, the dolphins, ajello, luke solomon and alex dolby. this time its the term of duo martin patino and enzo elia to step up with the release of their >metamorfosi di narciso ep<.enzo elias previous release for the likes of one louder berlin and mantra vibes have seen his standing as producer and dj grow at a rapid rate and teaming up with half pervvian partner martin patino.it seems the pair are determined to further make their mark with this outstanding ep of late nicht electronic club cuts.lead track >metamorfosi di narcisio< is a stripped minimal affair that draws you in from the opening bars.sparse and tight drums lay down the base for a slowly building intense track heavy aon percussion and full of a atmosphere despite its simple and spacey arrangement.

its all about housemusic its a spiritual thing! this statement from a former classic house recording fits perfectly to yves murasca and his attitude towards housemusic. his entire life had been constantly spinning around that uplifting housegroove from 120 to 130 beats per minute. although the munich based dj and producer is standing right at the beginning of his musical career he is already looking back at a number of well noticed projects. besides far more than 20 remixes only in the last two years for top artists like bob sinclar, barbara tucker, milk & sugar, jean claude ades or lee cabrera he became also a recommended radio dj with his own casa nostra radio show and due to the increasing demand on his club dj skills also more and more international bookings are taking place in the meantime.

jona bechtolt makes his way over to dfa for three tracks, all of which find him tailoring his endearing electronic pop squiggles into a far more serious sounding james murphy-friendly setup, complete with robust live kit sounds, disco drum patterns and tough no-wave basslines. both ‘summer song’ and ‘i’m in love with a ripper’ sound like perfect dfa fodder, with their slouchy rhythms and slick organic styling

the label boss returns to his own yore imprint with another stunning solo release. these are different times indeed for andy vaz if the eps three mighty jams are indicative of where his musics heading. the a-sides over here (a glance over prime time mix) roars from the very first moment vaz unleashes its steaming, latin-tinged groove. a far cry from the techno the yore label head once issued, the tune finds vaz exploring straight up dancefloor territory with a dizzying house pulse that straight up rocks. melodies and voices rise to the surface of the dionysian broil and then just as quickly recede, leaving room for a driving bass line to gain the spotlight. the flips hurry hurry (before its too late mix) is classic deep house just as one expects on yore. a jazz-inflected strut with tilman ehrhorns sax playing, wailing over waves of rollicking piano playing and spirited vocal chants. the energy level doesnt flag for the discs final track, bygone times (nostalgia mix), which stokes a fiery house swing with its locomotive pulse, futuristic synth patterning, and high-velocity bass lines. vazs music has never sounded more impassioned and energized than it does in these three tracks and consequently, just as one might predict, different times feels like its over far too soon

a powerful debut release by menasse workala. the >play me< track has a hypnotizing synth hook that keeps on building and >far from existence< keeps the tech-house vibe flowing and cleverly combines a modern house sound with some techy edges

john tejada & arian leviste from 2001 with great deep techno to techhouse

support by: chris liebing, alex bau, perc, wj henze, emerson, anderson noise... the first vinyl-release of brian sanhajis very succesful label sonata, whihc so far was only available digitally and now turns to be a >real< full-size label. heavy plays already for all of those tracks and even charted by chris liebing
