this is the first part (of four) of the much anticipated reissue series of drexciya s early catalogue, marking 20 years since the release of their first ep deep sea dweller , and 10 years since their final album grava 4 . one of the most influential techno acts ever, and part of the heritage of detroits underground resistance, drexciya explored techno like no-one else before: raw and uncompromising music that reflected the harsh environment of the city where drexciya was conceived, with a mythical approach that only added to their cult appeal. drexciya arguably stands for the darker side of techno and electro, made not only for the club scene, but a further development of the music as an expression and extension of the mind. journey of the deep sea dweller is a near-complete collection of their early works, released in four parts, with all audio remastered from the original master tapes. since the original releases have such a strong character and stand on their own, these reissue can never recreate the magic of those originals. instead, clone have stirred up the catalogue, taking tracks out of their original context, giving the committed fan a fresh experience and the new listener a document that is the best possible introduction to the aquatic world of drexciya.

local talk is proud to present the first release on their sub-label 1nce again. this is where we bring back classic and forgotten house gems from back in the day with new mixes and reworks. for our first release we have gone back to 97 and a producer known and respected worldwide in the house music community with more than 200 production credits under his belt. joshua michaels aka joshua iz perhaps best known for his collabs with dwayne washington as iz & diz but has of course used many other pseudonyms over the years for releases on labels like prescription, balance, classic, junior boys own, om and guidance. the return was first released on heard, sub-label to tom middletons evolution / universal language productions ltd. using his moniker circulation. the track can easily be described as a mammoth house track, clocking in just over 12 minutes. its one of those pieces of music that’s stood the test of time and why iz has been a major force in electronic music for so many years. on the flip much hyped duo prommer & barck stripped it down from its original costume leaving not much left of the source material resulting in something that we best could describe as old school warehouse meets uk bass. its pretty raw and definitely a basement sureshot!

>hold on< has been given the inimitable touch of deep house master marcus worgull. a classically trained musician like kabuki, he has stripped the track and used jennas vocals stabs to create a exquisite minimal groove to stunning effects. rising drum and bass star eveson has been given >generation x< to remix, and his <ode to a rave generation< is exactly what it is: keeping the haunting synth loop throughout, slowing the track down to finally go back to a rave-friendly 140 bpm with vintage breaks, and making the most of paul st hilaires colourful voice. the result is as awesome as skreams recent >burning up<.

the first phase in the breath-taking new musical project from hadamard, who of course we know from earlier projects via bunker, transient force, mighty robot and more recently featuring on compilations via our friends at solar one music. as we enter hadamards universe of the jupiter cycle, we hear a synthesis of straight-up electro coalesce with spellbinding ambient and experimental futurism, to create an overall bladerunner-esque environment. from the offset of our journey, approach,dramatically defining the musical landscape with its soundtrack-like and impending atmospherics,entry point,a stealthy, sneering electro fiend expect no mercy here magnetodisk is unpretentious, energized electro, providing a slightly more upbeat pause between the more serious overtones of offerings from ion electro straight from the core of jupiters volcanic moon whilst outpost jupiter and transition to chaos are most definitely someplace far, far in the future, as this piece can only leave the listener possessing a sense of introspection regarding the technological evolution of our generation. a stunning variety of styles on this limited edition vinyl project for last known trajectory.special limited edition pack includes the first in a series of collectable posters.

it had been since the dj qu remix of walt j that we did something on our subdivision petite. you know, this is where we like to re-release those forgotten pearls, with a new remix on the flip. this time we chose for >on and on< by italian-living-in-scandinavia raiders of the lost arp. in 2003 >on and on< appeared as the d2 track on his album >4<. but we thought this track is so great, it deserved a full a-side. on remix duties this time someone we have been wanting to work with since a long time, patrice scott. we have been following his sistrum label since the very first release, and he just never disappoints. neither does he this time.

alex and bill met 16 years ago when bill signed one of alex s first productions (is this the rhythm? by rhythmnvibe) to a new york label he was running. alex, whose father lives in the us, was a regular visitor to the states and they sent many happy hours together hanging out at the sound factory bar and comparing maw dubs. when bill returned to the uk in 1996, they had a few sessions together making house music, though neither of them can remember why they never finished anything or, indeed, what became of the tracks. fast forward a few years and they finally got back into the studio to make sweet music together under the moniker hotel motel. since then they have created a rich seam of work that some have already described as, like salvador dali with his pants down being fellated by deirdre barlow. few would disagree.

for the first time on this planet dial owner lawrence shows up on an excursion to his beloved pampa imprint. the double feature >kurama” presents two deepy enchanting anthems, a timeless vision of love. after touring around the globe with his new label mate dj koze since ages, having the most successful release in dial history with kosis efdemin remix, sharing music with each other like crackbrained, it is not a big surprise for lawrence to occur with two of his best pieces on pampa records. well known for his releases on mule electronic, ghostly international, styrax and his own imprints smallville, dial and laid, it was his first mix cd on cocoon >timeless< which made lawrence put some cats among the pigeons. with the new pampa again he has proved that the holy temple of deepness has to invite some flawy hypnotists once in a while to get clouded and shaken. the number 09 is dedicated to two most famous experiences in japan: the kurama mountain in kyoto, one of the most amazing places on earth, and oolong high, one of the most amazing drinks on earth- cold oolong tea on the rocks with a zip of japanese shochu liquor. after koze and lawrence had another few of these beverages again they started dreaming of this wonderful release

just like different fishes can be found in different grounds, also the acoustic tales of the micronaut take place in different regions of the emotional landscape: sometimes warm, sometimes fresh – sometimes calm and stagnant, sometimes lively and floating. and just like all the fishes are connected by the water surrounding them, also this album has its connecting element: a very individual and independent groove. this groove comes with a lot of surprises. for instance, when a guitar chord from the acoustic band atmosphere of gruen- dling suddenly gets tangled up in a loop and introduces an unexpected but coherent change into the direction of broken, electronic beats. or when the emotional world music elements of schleie mix up with exciting halfstep rhythms. sophi- sticated arrangements, unusual instrumentations and intense emotions- these are the main attributes of friedfisch . though the experimental character of this work does not really aim the dance floor, it still keeps connected to this place: two sensitive remixes by mollono.bass represent the upbeat for an entire series, being exclusively released on vinyl.

nico stojans last release on upon you was a collaboration with the cheapers. before that, he had his debut on uy together with pele. now, the former hip- hop producer, took the streets of spain all by himself and brought back an endotherm tech-house breeze to blow-dry our backstock catalogue and in wich we can preserve our summer memories in- for the cold days ahead. not only wants the namegiving a1 of the uy054 to dancingly dig itself into the sand-beach… eaven the b1 ttitle quiet now is wearing bikini-fashion. for those who like to withdrawel in the winter into steaming halls will be gratified by the remix from hektor. the born mexican which found his way through london into berlin is turning the focal point from quit now into the direction main stage and lets the base drop. for the digital delights in life: nicos track dusty fingers is ready to be downloaded- also a consequent techno-remix from meyerdierks.

whether on his own or with nick hoppner as my my lee jones has been djing and making music for more than a decade. in 2008 jones released his debut full-length lp “electronic frank” on aus music. his solo releases and remixes have appeared on labels such as aus music, ostgut ton, liebe*detail and cityfox and last year, he did his first ever mix cd for the world famous watergate club. next up from the talented producer is a futuristic 4-tracker on aus, incl 2 remixes from george fitzgerald and midland. for the lead track moment, jones offers up a bass driven house number that hints at his jazz roots whilst pushing forward into garage territory. for the remix, george fitzgerald delivers his most straight up, heads down house production to date. next up is duvel, a characteristically quirky jones production, bouncy and deep all at once but with a bass line that will hold its own at peak time. midland steps up for the remix, twisting it into a moody multi-genre convergence like only he can.

müller records, the berlin-based label, has a long and proud tradition of high-quality releases. it also has a strong track record in sniffing out up-and-coming talent - acts like berliner falk romstedt, alias hawkinson. his eps and remixes - check his former eps and remixes on muller records- hadalreadyshownthathewasequallyathome creating techno with a driving groove as he was knocking out strong and detailed synth melodies. now his first lp is being released on müller records. klaf , put succinctly, is an album that picks up the style of hawkinson s previous singles and runs with it.

another epic seahawks voyage and this time theyre heading for the deep ocean of outer space. the results have been likened to the klfs chill out album performed by astroanuts. yep its that spacey but theres plenty of baked groove excursions along with the cosmic dinner jazz. imagine that instead of creating yah mo be there, michael mcdonald and james ingram hopped aboard a spaceship captained by sun ra and set the controls for alpha centauri. somewhere between the sea of tranquillity and the red heat of mars they find a party going on, klaus schulze is jamming with chic and peter frampton, kenny loggins is on bongos and the horn section from the doobie brothers are blowing soft and sweet but mike and jim have taken a whole lot of mind bending psychotropics and the music sounds like nothing theyve ever heard before. you are entering the seahawks universe, let your mind roam free. to ensure premium audio fidelity, the lp was mastered at abbey road and pressed at vinyl factory. as ever the artwork is beautiful and the edition is limited so get your skates on!

played by sven väth !!! night voyage tool kit is the collaborative project of two like-minded producers, night slugs bok bok and tom trago, curator of the rush hour labels voyage direct series. originally commissioned by sound pellegrino label boss teki latex, this is the result of four intense days and nights in toms amsterdam studio, surrounded by hardware and enshrouded in a thick haze. having pursued very different directions in their respective solo work, the duo find common ground in minimalism, dj tools, the neptunes and ghetto house. the result is a collection of stripped down rhythm tracks aimed straight for the club: the arpeggiator workout of pathfinder, vectors cosmic jeep bass, pom clash and its grimey lil louis tribute, and the acid epic lil ma bonus beat.

collaboration between pascal blanche, wojtek kutschke and lukas poloczek. who wants to make music coming deeply from their feelings, simply emotions. include in this ep we will find out two finest tracks titled money and reflecting love, both track comes on like the perfect theme to the arrival of autumn. the tones are intospective, the groove is solid and stablished. money ep will surprise listeners with careful arrangements, specific groove and atmosphere. they will attracting your mind, and push your body to the dancefloor! they definitely would give reasons to be curious about their current career. this time the remixing artists is our buddy tom ellis, who continues his search for the beauty on music. with this remix he delivers a highly hooking track, a beautiful piece of music we have heard in a while. sort of deep mix that plays the contrast between a great ryhtmique and melodic vocals.

after two years an-2 is breaking the silence with his new ep demonstrating a fully refreshed sonic palette he has been in the search of. built over a quirky synth bass line, >beside me< is filled with all the right melodic elements that walk a thin line between sounding baroque yet minimalistic at the same time. >chronos<, named after the greek god of time, rolls on like the second hand on a clock face - surely fit for an early night dance floor it will never become an anachronism in your record collection. and finally, >dare< which combines all the usual suspects: a funky bass guitar, dreamy arpeggios and ethereal pads - is set to please any discerning crowd!

nazareths second 74 album >rampant< finds the group tempering the four-on-the-floor hard rock attack they developed on >loud and proud< by working a surprising and effective southern rock edge into the songs. the end result is an album that sounds like a early ac/dc meets lynyrd skynyrd at their hardest rocking. this gatefold sleeved, 180 grams audiophile edition of the album contains the b-side to the >love hurts< 7 inch single as a bonus. rock on!

wave turned out to be the last album the patti smith group would record, as it was also last album smith would record before a nine year hiatus. the godmother of punk decided to focus on her family life and moved to michigan, but not before leaving us with gems like the sexually mysterious >dancing barefoot< (dedicated to her husband to be fred sonic smith) and her amazing, biting version of >so you want to be (a rock n roll star)<. produced by todd rundgren, this is her most pop-oriented album, and many at the time could not appreciate her more accessible sound. nevertheless, wave, her spoken word tribute to pope john paul i (who reigned for only 33 days) is as touching and harrowing now as when it came out in 1979. available on vinyl for the first time since its original release!
pressing on 180 grams audiophile vinyl, includes 4 page insert.

peter clamat returns with two downgraded state- of-the-art slowhouse rollers straight from south- west germany. the a-side with future and dispatch shows once again the great development of peters sound into more and more deepness and originality. slow,dope and shuffling like hell.

thomas hesslers ep is the first player through crepuscular shafts & sonic subways.. beware the trail. first track - lost - cements you into a vacuum of suffocating synths that precede a poundin kick.. you are propelled into a tunnel. the bridge of the track is a course in restraint, giving way to menacing drive & looping side sticks.. siren like washes takes hold, swirling & disorientating the listener. on the flip, - 12 channel madness - best conveys the tone and atmosphere of the release. the murky darkness & pace feels inhuman to the core, but not without infectious rhythm breakdowns with flavors of old & nu skool shuffle timbres. these tracks are also - tools - that do not sacrifice on complexity. the haunting synth washes carry us through but offer no comfort. insanity & intensity reaches catharsis but never overpowers the overall mix. - berlin movement - is the final track on the ep that affirms you are still inside the tunnel. the incisive hook lines impel you to find your way out. the kick is more subdued forcing you to go with the melody until the break & bridge lapses back & the restraint builds to hypnotic frenzy. a dry, howling wind prevails.. filtered and distorted. thomas hessler succeeds in taking us through his tunnel of contradictions: alluring, menacing, emotional yet coldly detached. listen up: you might not escape !
words: livia terri

next detroit - chicago bomb by echonomist. incl huge john dimas remix. like an aficionado of acid house echonomist returns with a stormer on third wave. this time his hyped chord progressions resolve into a groove that is more or less a reminiscence of the hacienda days. dans mon salon sings in black shades >i feel for you<, >to lock with a groove that i crave for<. a praise to jack, a praise to the way of jack. ultimately, >jack had a groove. and from this groove came the grooves of all grooves<… john dimas goes deeper underground with a simple primitive like pulsating groove. the insistent bass line tone (that slowly unravels an opening filter) clearly connects to old skool techniques of acid house masters.

komisch welcomes another new artist to its fold for its last release of 2011.p.god aka paolo dioguardi hails from naples in italy. still in his 20s, he makes music that belies his youth and neptune iv sounds like the work of a veteran producer. lead track approaching an ocean planet sees grainy, dense beats and hypntoic bleeps take the lead, but hovering above the arrangement, tethered to the reverberated, doubled up claps, are ghostly, eerie chords. the title track adopts a similar approach, with bursts of metallic percussion underscoring spacey pads as p.god drops a droning, tunneling rhythm track. finally, geometric shadows on iced surfaces sees the young producer opt for a deeper approach. this time the chords envelop a purring groove, but the same sense of understated menace is still audible thanks to the austere hats and bleak subsonic bass. capturing jeff millss estoeric side and the hypnotic magic of sleeparchive, neptune iv is a real techno journey!

remixes this time are handled by a balanced mix of established heavyweights like: raiz remix luigi madonna remix subfractal remix tess wassila remix on the heels of the hugely successful m.a.d.a. + plankton single >antiz<, hidden once again looks to france for another huge techno release. this time they tap the next hidden recordings artist from france, the young master of bass, alejandro trebor, who shakes the pillars of heaven with this massive original. >quemadura del sol< is well-crafted big room techno to keep the dance-floor in a frenzy. long time followers of the label may also sense the overall arc of the label on hiddens 15th release, the laidback textural techno of >wolkenreise< to the festival sound system sized >quemadura del sol< with a focus on high quality originals coupled with a diverse range of remixes from the top names in the global techno scene. its a recipe for success that has seen hidden join the company of some of the genres most trendsetting labels in 2011. hiddens latest >quemadura del sol< deserves all of your attention as one of premier releases this fall.

lb003 arrives courtesy of bristol born, brighton based producer sam kidel, aka el kid. following up his well received debut on immerse sam drops 3 tracks of wildly varied bass music. beginning with the title track >hypnosis<, lush ambient pads and plucked guitar soon give way to fearsome bass swells and metronomic percussion, coming across like early autechre remixed by floating points. second track >mud< drops the pace for a noisy house workout, reminiscent of fellow bristolians kowton, and labelmate vessel. >kachinja< on the flip is the straightest - and darkest - of the lot, a lurching warehouse techno cut that wouldnt sound out of place on ostgut ton. finally hyperdub wunderkid walton contributes a rough & ready funky dub of >hypnosis< to round out the ep.

*** limited vinyl copies*** comprised of former members of hercules and love affair, new york citys jessica 6 has been commanding dance floors for years, globetrotting from london to miami, san francisco to santiago, bergen to belgrade, seducing the dancing, sweaty masses with an electrifying blend of disco, soul and r&b.

cosmic cowboys are back on mgf. there would be no need to say anything else as the grooving armada from venice already left its trademark with releases like the > dusk ep< or the > piano africano ep< but of course theres more to say. nico and kaled, for their third release on > musik gewinnt freunde<, deliver a dancefloor monster that keep all of their quintessential romantic touch but reshaping it in a different way this time. fully oriented to the dancefloor the a-track >notre jour viendra< comes along the an amazing remix of the berlin duo youandme. signing a perfect reinterpreation that leaves the listener speachless

hot release alert by our boy paul du lac who is a long time close friend of the frustrated family, colleague at the clone office and an old dj buddy of frustrated funk label boss klen (when they played the nighttown basement in the early 90s). so it s a bit of a special thing for us having him aboard. this ep shows pauls signature minimalistic approach on chicago style house. typical jacking 707s and 808s combined with minimal synth pulses. qom and access are pure jackin bliss for the floor while moodswings goes deeper with layers of warm pads and spaced out stings. the title track comes with a stripped beats version from tevo howard, for those who like to mix things up.. highly recommended!!

its number 77 here at morris audio and your weekly dose of house and techno! 4 hot producers giving you the beats and basslines you need. starting with swiss duo azuni, their raw chord is a special one. sadly, it will be their last track ever released, as the azuni project has come to an end and gianni and sven will work solo in the future. thank you guys! frenchman julien sandre is what you call a name to watch. his music has been released by labels like tsuba or diynamic and his future looks bright. the flipside offers us housemaster dj aakmael (uzuri, unxpozd entertainment) with some old schoolish beats for all those mixmasters out there.
big with: maceo plax, mic newman, robert dietz, sebo k, huxley, hector, trickski, jordan peak, ekkohaus, james johnston, roberto rodriguez, shaun reeves, boris hotton,..

nice price deal !!! resurfacing a few years major his explorations >at the end of the world<, dan quin throws from left field and scores a hit with his unorthodox take on vocal house music. >everybody knows< is a party-rocker with heart and integrity, remaining loyal to the tenants of dark, exploratory house and techno while superseding the problematic attachment to the past that has retarded the development of song-based dance music. the result is a sprawling, ominous and moving piece of internally conflicted electronica, caught in the ford between a reverence for the work of electronic-pop visionaries like fever ray, and the loyalties of the vast, red-lit expanses of nyc rooted club music. featuring the fresh new talents of brooklyn native tammy k., >everybody knows< is the latest release on dope jams very own in-house record label, a new manifestation of soulful house for a new generation of dance music devotees thirsty for the universal sensibilities of the vocal without the tired cliches of yesteryear.

nice price deal !!! following on from the likes of maya jane coles and t.williams, next to release on ever cultured hypercolour off shoot hypeltd is toronto beatsmith kevin mcphee. with releases on labels like idle hands and nakedlunch in 2011, this man has established himself as one of the finest and freshest producers of the year. here turning in four more original cuts, mcphees fascination with house apparently continues apace. mcphee very much has his own fine grain analogue aesthetic… this most delightful ep only confirms that.
