second collection of quality detroit techno for the mind and body with well known tracks and artists like rod modell and sounders department/tip>a side reverse pressing<

orlando voorn prod. detroit influenced techno!!! ltd repress !!! alongside fix - flash, this is, in my opinion, the best thing orlando voorn has ever done. released on derrick mays fragile label back in 1993 its one of those tracks that just sounds like the future. highly recommended

outstanding new release for the markantonios mkt record! the alter ego of neapolitan producer launches to the funky minimal world a new ep created by young roberto capuano, a guy coming from campania too. the track got you is really funny, a genre that should be defined clickyfunkytechhouse, with a bouncing beat and addition of sounds and voices like in a videogame. it appears more determined the track hoffnung: what are more striking are the restarts! really difficult to stand still listening it. instead evokes old style jackpot, but in his path wetsuit repeatedly, evolving in a track with modern and sought sounds and catchy melodies

hot stuff !! system of survival & amor t s hotly tipped ianvs71 is back with some exciting new signings for their mmix ad (2009) release schedule project. just like with their naturelle ep (ianvs71_001), the label keeps combining with this new release, the primal energy of house and the willful embrace of post-modern techno-deepness. here to-go three mixes to shake and challenge souls and bones. metrica one night offers three exciting mixes combining the primal energy of house to the willful embrace of techno deepness. quality house, irresistible groove with no inhibitions! highly recommended for fans of house, luciano, villalobos

sd records keeps them fine tunes coming, this time with the long awaited debut of roswell return. on the a-side the title track iftodex c0001 which can be best described as deep space acid: a long and trippy beatless track that keeps evolving around a powerful acid line and deep strings, which sound like a journey through space past bright shining stars and fast pulsating white dwarfs. on the b-side you will find the sd remix by syncom data, who hardly need any introduction, and they have turned the original into an irresistible, deep and warm dancefloor smasher in the best detroit tradition.

sweet 16 is a perfectly judged slice of disco punk, producer grahmzilla hooking up a beat which sounds like the clash hanging out at studio 54 while isis tells of the joys and dangers of being sixteen and ruling the dancefloor. its not clear whether the natural stage genius (time out) is encouraging under age sex, cautioning against it or just suggesting engaging in some healthy exhibitionism. whatever the message she makes it sound great. cruise low is as low slung and bass heavy as you d expect from the title, isis whispering about popping the trunk with a mixture of enticement and threat. bonus track whateveruneed is an epic instrumental electro symphony from grahmzillas hard drive. ny mover and shaker eli escobar rounds out the package with a mix of sweet 16 which harks all the way back to planet rock...

michael forzzas is one of the most important techno djs from belgium. like figure head len faki, michael forzzas speciality is to play extended sets which develop an individual athmosphere. figure 015 is forzzas first international release, and forzza sent two unique tracks to berlin, the tenor & the monkey is destined to turn the dancefloor into a frenzy. it puts you in a state of fear and euphoria at the same time. while the tenor & the monkey puts the roof of every club on fire, high on this is more cautious. the powerful groove unfolds its energy in many contexts. the pulse of the track immediate, it feels like the music is talking to each dancer personally. the tenor & the monkey and high on this don t show any effort, yet the tracks rule over the dancefloor: they both manage to focus on the essence of club music, a rarely achieved task these days.

the cologne based grossprojekt arose in 2006 from the rather coincidental neigbourship and clubbing friendship between techno dj and live act bastian bue?r and breakbeat producer alex cwicek. the year 2008 marks the end of their deliberate reluctance: their debut release on debox combines the different roots of the two artists to a new creative entity, resulting in an amazingly effective piece of techno in querschlaeger. raumkruemmung on the flipside works a bit like its own, streamlined transmission onto a straight bassdrum monotonous, raw and uncompromising.

omar-s: >>i like donato dozzy from italy, i like his shit. sex tags, they re from norway. scott grooves, theo parrish and kyle hall, and thats it.<< played by: prins thomas, raresh, robag wruhme, robag wruhme, agnes ... mark it off to keep it holy - not to be mistaken for ordinary.!!!!!!

hard, harder, deadly sins! the year 2009 starts with a hardtechno firework! nine has been passed now, which are supported by hardtechno-heroes like robert natus, boris s., marco remus, kaoz and many more. this is the chapter 10 with 4 kickin hard-techno tunes. go and get it!

played by: masomenos, laurent garnier, atjazz, charles webster, tigerstripes, shur-i-kan, , solomun, mihalis safras, martin eyerer, ivan smagghe, john acquaviva,?after releases on farbenfroh, con:takt and fullscale the youngster timo huehner makes his first contribution to the bcbtec department with an ep coming along so fresh and crisp that it should be no big deal for him to follow the success of label mates like sebastian lutz, mikel mckay and the molisans brothers. the 21 year old student is driven by an uncompromising and deep passion for electronic music which you can feel in every single beat of this fine three tracker: groove swatter >any one< takes the lead on the a-side with cool cut up vocals, followed by >attentione< stomping ahead with elegant functionality. on the b-side >triple hau< is another fine example of state of the art tech house: frisky stuff for adlib fetishists

incl remixes by trus me and part time heroes

already on rotation by artists like jake the rapper (combination), till von sein (morris audio), paul hazendonk (manual), marcus carp (paloma rec), sportbrigade sparwasser (fusion), xpansul(ovum/ soma/ plus8) and more... next 12 from the floor-killing liveact deo&z-man on the new label fundament schallplatten!

a track is a track, is a track is a track. but not every track is just a track. trackletons stands for much more than just tracks. on his debut ep you wont get to hear the substandard generic ordinary music that can be found everywhere. he has it all. disco, house, minimal, techno, you name it, he brings it. welcoming our latest act >trackleton< with his first appearance in form of his >jump ep< adds a variety of deep styles to this 3-tracker like we have not heard it a long while. the a side is a detroit influenced dance-floor sweeper with melodies so deep and beats so sharp that will leave no escape from making heads turning and get your feet dancing. b1 plays it cool all around the bass-line, laying things down in a old-school sounding manner - minimal to the bone, but done so cleverly to ensure that the basics simply sit right and will get you moving. the b-2 track then surprises you with more than just a hint of disco that will be standing out from the norm and creates a nice diversity. one does not often hear music so warm, on point, deep and yet fully dance-floor oriented

alec is one of the most-promising acts from east germany at the moment with a very own unique style crossing reduced techno with epic and mystical influences. his debut single >passengers< on etui records brought him very good support from various key-djs like karotte and his last ep >sub aquers< on ipoly music is dreamy grooving the clubs at present, played by laurent garnier etc. >orville< is matching with a teeting drive and its beautiful spheres while alex carbo puts the theme into a powerful minimalistic remix. >not in violet< is a well freaky dancefloor track with some vocoded voices

pit spector started composing music in reggae and jazz bands, playing guitar and piano. he shortly discovered electronic music, following his bro steps ark, who gave him a sampler in one hand, a herbert record in the other. fascinated by this kind of composing, he founded antislash together with john merrick and charlie not fonk. the group is performing extremely punchy and improvised livesets accross europe. pit spector also writes music and sounds for avas verden, a more theatrical and noisy show, influenced by rita mitsuko, herbert and steve reich. in his first 12inch, on minibar, he offers a 4 tracker. its a unique sound and groove experience, with antislash remix. its about clicks, drums, voice, kicks… exactly as we like em. he takes this opportunity to thank again ark for passing on his love for music and dance

oblios smooth sound and spacious pads fit perfect in to the so called balearic vibe. if you are not in a rush and have a moment to listen, you will enjoy the typical oblio melodies and chord progressions. like all oblio songs there is lots of synth and arpeggios and no samples.

the 3rd studio album by the eagles, released in 1974.

another wicked addition to the yin yangs world series! man of the moment a.paul drops 4 solid techno slammers!really like a.paul stuff!! will hammer!

full power play by dubfire, oliver huntemann, popof, stephan bodzin, fergie, style of eye, florian meindl, the hacker, the glitz,… andreas henneberg is part of the glitz (voltage musique, pocketgame, ostwind, karateklub, notorious elektro, areal...) brings home the electro techno bacon once again. hes definitely one of the most promising new electronic artists that emerged from germany in the last years. the federfarben ep comes up like a swarm of killerbees that pushes the honeys right onto the dancefloor. both tracks are overflowing with energy and great interference modulations. this guy simply knows what hes doing and you can be sure hes kicking ass! beware of freaked out dancers!

all these tracks are made for the floor, in other words, made purely fordancing. rather dry compressed but driving beats combined with sweatygrooves work like a charm and the whole mixture goes fluidly anddeliciously down like the very best vintage barolo harvested at the peaktime and offering altogether more testosterone than those blue littlepills. everlasting love! another quality production brought to you bysenator recordings.

downwards like techno three tracker

antoine husson aka electric rescue is a long time collaborateur and friend of heckmann, promoter and organizer for the famous rex club in paris, labelowner of the more than successful skryptöm records and last but not least dj and musician. he here hits afulimited with his first release and thats already creating a big buzz! with a little help by heckmann himself to get the crazy ideas into shape, antoine finally delivered three very unusual and unheard tunes, that people are asking for strongly already. lazy dog with its building craziness and wicked sounds starts off like a hurricane. theres not much

amsterdam hits up the scene with a new imprint once more. after some years of friendship and some projects in the studio together, kabale und liebe and lauhaus team up again. this time to launch a new label. soweso records. with soweso records kabale und lauhaus want to put out new school house music. first up is the young and talented makam from the hague, holland. with his vintage sound he builts the perfect bridge between old- and newschool house music. the a side, the hague soul, is a real chicago house stomper with a character of its own. heavy beats, nagging synth sounds and a raw voice, all on a mission to prove that the hague is the soulful city. the b1, exception, is like a young thomas bangalter meets moodymann. here makam is freaking with his filterknobs, leaving the crowd waiting until he is ready to burst. bomb! on the b2 kabale und lauhaus pair up for a deeper remix that gives a more chemical end flowy vibe to the original of the hague soul. early support by karotte, nick curly, matthias kaden, johnny d and matthew dear

a brilliant follow up to the critically acclaimed auto beam ep released on the respected scottish label mighty robot recordings. posable flotsam is a gloriously floor friendly ep. both complex and emotive, and suffused with english electrics characteristic micro produced beats and textures, the three tracks shimmer with addictive harmonies and a solid dose of electronic funk. like his previous release, the influences and aesthetics of 70s sci fi soundtracks pervade throughout, effortlessly finessed and updated for modern production and dancefloor sensibilities.

after several months of hard video- and filmwork, and several awards, french-vietnamese cutie tk.kim aka. pop-3 will finally release some new tracks, on vinyl and online, and by the way, she promised to release more stuff in 2009! so, the new release, chicks and cuts, with 8 tracks online and a 4-track vinyl 12, is definitely dancy, clubby and loud. definitely in the tradition of pop-3s former releases, that never perfectly fitted a precise music category and prove that tk.kim still refuses to be house, tec or minimal. shes all of them or none of them. and what does chicks and cuts sound like, then? boomy squeaking analog sequences combined with delicious samples of her sweet voice will delight the dancefloor, lo-fi audio splinters coming out of old analog drummachines play something like very reduced melodies, and well shaped bassdrums and deep synths will delight your tummies. the very minimal lyrics are in french, as usual. and, goodie: sonja moonear and akiko kiyama contribute with amazing remixes to this fine girls-only oeuvre, rhythmical and minimal but still very harmonious the one by akiko, deep and mysterious the one by sonja. and by the way, the cover is really sweet, people say.

new year, new sounds. we are proud to release our debut ep under concorde club recordings with very special tracks by highly talanted newcomers microtune & takter and acidfacotry plus a great remix by oscar. on this release you find four melodic, danceable tracks, minimal, technoid and deep - exactely what it needs to be played on a packed dancefloor. this special music has its own stlye and people freak out celebrating great parties with great stuff. skytrain gives you the feeling of a long never ending night with those perfect moments you really like to remember. pulsating beats and a catchy melody in the remix also makes you wanna dance. debajo del sol has its own moving spirit. long melodies, typical for acidfactory, and an unconventionally bassline. phat! the remix by oscar, known as label owner of lordag, karateklub etc, completes this record and pushes really forward...

played by: ricardo villalobos, steve bug & matthias tanzmann minimono delights us once again with two new refreshing tracks. >stay away< is a typical minimono track, with playful cartoon-like sounds, the aesthetics of minimal and a housy groove. sounds like fun, huh? in contrast >el guapo< could be interpreted as deephouse, but the snappy beats keep your feet moving while the chord-like sounds make you want to close your eyes and just drift away.

united by a simple question as what is electro?, the two young english producers of joe and will ask? have spent the last two years creating dirty, cutting edge productions and taking over the london club scene. with an eye firmly on the dance floor, but also with effortless musicality not normally associated with techno, theyve won over fans from the band / indie scene, as well as diehard clubbers. they inject tonality and musical flow into everything they touch, all under the banner of techno or electro or whatever you would like to call it, and have been compared to justice, soulwax, dim and popof. after several eps, acclaimed by the likes of brodinski kris menace, vicarious bliss, casper c and autokratz to name a few, here comes their first release on kitsuné. claymore, delivers a tensed and breathtaking swoop with obsessive rhythms, while take me away with its strong rock energy and vocal hook, will set all the dancefloors on fire

colin de la plante is the canadian bred and berlin-based the mole. his unique and abstract take on modern disco on labels like wagon repair and musique risque put him right at the top of my wishlist….. so after promises of fulfilling filthy fantasies and a big share in the norwegian oil fund these 2 golden nuggets were handed over!

rockford inc. is sullivan sawyer and dwight jenkins who put their souls into their computer and see what comes back out. in this case, its >like a rock<, a contemplative slow-burner that spreads itself over 11 minutes. on the b-side, >minas theme< is an uplifting melodic house tune, drenched in optimism, the ideal antidote for dreary dancefloors.

the next installment from the new beyond imprint is with us, featuring two newcomers from the thriving us underground, kapuchon & benny rodriques. the pair bring a magical detroit infused collection of warm, urgent and modern house music into our peripheral vision where its simply hard to ignore … like a well loved vintage drum machine tweaked to perfection, or a dusty old synth rejuvinated, >and again< draws inspiration from the rich synthesised landscapes of classic detroit techno, however adds a totally fresh and modern aesthetic, through its use of precise drum fills and beatifully crafted harmonies. on a more thoughful, soulful tip, >unexpected< unravells itself with smooth chord atmospheres, driving, solid-state percussion and teasing delay fx. the story might be a familar one to those who have their ears firmly pressed to the dancefloor, but for good reason, as these two fine storytellers have crafted a golden moment for the late, late hours. the acidic ride of >potato tomato<, with its pushing sub bass and glistening crescendos is perhaps the toughest cut of the e.p, and delivers the energy where its needed whilst still holding onto that classic, deep-as-dawn chicagotodetroit vibe.

minoritys 1st sampler brings you an array of talent including robsouls anhanguera, nwecomer jeff haze, tangos cubase dan and baker street recordings bosses holmes & watz!!

played by john digweed at his bbc essentials mix!!! here s the tune everybody was asking for. and the tune everybody is going to ask for too! >condensated< provided some unforgettable (ibiza-)moments with his solid, oldschool-like and exploding chord-grooves throughout last summer within remutes livesets and dj-sets of big names like for example john digweed. now remute decided to publish this gem finally

the community of people who like to eat other people invite weichentechnikk to their disturbing parties. he was inspired by this meat masacre and created a killer ep for the cannibal society! hard as can be and with a wicked twist.. massive!!

designed to produce recordings and organize events related to electronic music, kaugummi is an independent based in paris-france structure, created in 2007. kaugummis world is kaleidoscopic, playing with reminiscences of electro from the eighties, recollections of new-wave or pop… on the occasion of these first productions, they have chosen to line up both borne out artists, rude 66 & women affair and more straighting out artists, blackskirt & ashley. made up of tracks driving up these different asperities, « machine gum » vol.01 bear witness of kaugummis very special spirit of foundations

so inagawa comes back to mv for his second ep, this time with a more laid back housy feel, smooth and sexy just the way we like it

with his new maxi on cocoon, guy gerber, our man for the big emotional moments on the dancefloor, will make our eyes shine bright in christmas anticipation. after releases for his own label supplement facts, the club hits >sea of sand<, >belly dancing< and not to forget, his album debut >late bloomers<, the tel-aviv-based gerber could be found rightly in top positions in many newcomer listings in the past year. 2008 was a little more calm for him, but with >timing<, being just in time for the final, he again sets new standards in linking harmony with a hedonistic state of emergency. while >timing< pleases us like a nocturnal-hypnotic romance in between a disco bassline, >age of love< flair and winterly sleigh bells, >guilty pleasures< takes back this playful love of details to the benefit of a tropical-dense percussive dub, however without appearing less mandatory on the dancefloor. consequently, gerber will be playing together with sven väth at christmas eve in the cocoonclub frankfurt

perc trax is proud to present its 25th vinyl release. for a label initially set up as an outlet for percs own music, perc trax has somehow hit a quarter-century of vinyl releases featuring a host of a-list producers including james holden, district one, ripperton, nathan fake, go hiyama, norman nodge, avus, remute, matt tolfrey, gary beck and many more. from the very first release ali percs a&r philosophy has been to sign the kind of music that he would play in a club and would like to hear others play. so who better than to step up for this milestone release than misc. whose records for sender, resopal, kompakt, klang and lost souls have been a constant presence is alis well-travelled record box. they also currently record as the popular niederflur for richie hawtins minus imprint and are working on their debut album under this name.

wandering the mojuba sublabel welcomes a new project named tyche for its 2nd journey. like the first jc freaks record these two tracks on two paths sound fresh but classic once again! overall both tunes have a very hypnotic feel, which is capable of making your body move, although the approach of the tracks are diametral … but you better take a listen on your own

there is no doubt that leipzig is a pulsating place in terms of electronic music. however, the potential of the city seems to be experiencing a new surge - not least due to up-and-coming producers like sven tasnadi and stefan schultz aka juno6. both belong to the generation of musicians who initially released their tracks for free on net-labels but have since have made the leap to vinyl. while sven tasnadi has already released great eps on liebe*detail, smallville records and of course on cargo edition, juno6 just recently made his debut with >salamis< in spring 2008 on broque. now they have joined forces with their first collaboration for cargo edition. both tracks on the ep are characterised by elaborate rhythms, a special deepness and intricately arranged sounds. >aramis< tells apparently different stories which merge seamlessly during its 14 minutes. the track also explores the hypnotic moments on the dancefloor in a very subtle and complex manner - reduced but full of vibrancy at the same time. >genau so< on the b-side takes a similar line, but adds a spark of funk, which combines to form its distinctive rhythm. sven tasnadi & juno6 have created two modern house tracks which are full of character.

nice price deal !!! hammered by the like of bob sinclar, and now released on his label... one for the dancefloor for sure.

incl agnes rmx !! for our new release on perspectiv, we are really proud to introduce you the berlin based artist dana ruh which already released her wonderful music on prestigious labels like einmaleins or mina records. on the a side >history of the sun< is 11 minutes journey full of warmness, on an edge, minimal house & on the other, totallymental grooves. this is a real jewel for all the electronic connoisseurs . on the flip our favorite ladyboy agnes (sthlmaudio) give us a fantastic rework. deep samples and magic edit for a great moment of nu house.

rezkars fascination with music began with his parents record collection. listening to local radio stations as a child, he heard 80s tracks. as an adult he discovered the magic of 60s and 70s jazz and funk. one day, his cousin played a track that he immediately fell in love with. he later learned that this was house music. he discovered the fruity loops sequencer software and thought, why not try to make my own tracks, after all, it cant really be that hard? deep house can sound deceptively simple. its a bit like japanese anime, rezkar says. it looks so cute and easy to draw, but try to actually draw it, and you will discover its even harder than realistic drawings. the thing about house is that if you try too hard it can come across as being very cheesy, but then again, if you dont do enough it can sound incomplete. finding the balance is not easy, rezkar admits. after hearing his music, one finds that he is learning this lesson quite well.

big with: loco dice, luciano, sis, reboot... on this seventh release, 1 more collaboration with great greek producers: kreon & lemos. a side hands up is the result of this collaboration, a raw funky track with darkishn and heavy vocal & with big synth rise... 1 beat, 1 groove ... as simple as this!on b1 , ny is an atmospheric odyssey, that make you feel like flying over city @ night. b2 is a deep techno ballad, a musical bedtime story for those who dont want to go to sleep

big with nick curly, jimpster, pablo bolivar, alexi delano, demon days, davide squillace, agnès, audiofly,. andi numan, another newcomer of new zealand origin, presents his ingenious take on house, fusing traditional acid and contemporary styles with ease. we are excited. this one goes out to everybody feeling tired with deep house, abandoned or stuck with techno, but still looking for the one beat, that rules them all. andi numan studied various instruments like piano from a young age of three years. in the early ninties he got sucked into the young electronic music scene, fell in love with analogue gear and started dj-ing at open air events and abandoned warehouses.
