buddy holy goes ramones! summer hits ist die zweite singleauskopllung der britischen band mazes, die schon vm nme und bei radio1 abgefeiert wurde!

self defence returns in full effect with new yorks one and only dj dukes (of sex trax / power music fame) >summer madness ep<. dj duke had retired from the music front for a while, after he had about 300 records emerged after his >blow your whistle< blew up in 1993 and during the past few years. with releases dating back to 1990, you know the mans got skills aplenty, and they once again get a killer workout on this ep. each of the tracks shows a different side of his music-making and rewards ones time and attention, demonstrating that duke plays in his own league of house music. a bit of curry flavour seeps into >summer blast< by way of a sinuous string melody, adding an exotic tinge to the breeziness that otherwise infuses the cut. a funky, vibes-like motif and analog synth streams bring additional colour to the scene while a crisp, pumping groove locks everything solidly in place

like a short warm summer rain at a festival...laufmasches two tracks are going to become the heavy rotating tracks of this years summer open air events! side a with a housy rocking mover and on side b the warmth or sounds which carry you away

trio techno cover, it was just a question of time to reach the point when wayne considers himself to be the one to create a musical statement in order to show what he thinks about all the current status of some parts of the electronic dancemusic circus. he still suffers from too much so called >minimal< in his eyes and he wants back the energy he is missing on many occasions… >you know, techno without bass is like f…… without screwing him in…< some might say he s too late with this song, but thats simply wayne! in his universe the meaning of time is different to what we all would expect. anyway, he finally checked out garage band on the mac he recently >lended< from somebody he does not even know, and here we go with his first very own song. lyrics in german only and heavily inspired by one of the biggest hits from the 80ies from the german cult-formation >trio<, but to make a long story short: its waynes message that the so called minimal sound is definitely over now: >always klick and always klack, i can not tell how much it sucks...<

snuff crew (snuff trax, gigolo, playhouse... ) with more jackin madness

bodyscrub is one of the most exciting & uprising talents of the growing neapolitan techno scene. with mind blowing releases on labels like phobiq and 1605 he was able to catch our attention, so we are glad to announce his first ep on driving forces recordings. with >hyperactive< and >regular< bodyscrub delivered 2 slamming & modern high quality techno tracks for the peak time. but that’s by far not all!

some of the worlds greatest djs play his tracks, some ofthe worlds greatest producers request his services as a remixer and for years his music has featured on world renowned labels. none the less, peter horrevorts has stayed in the background whilst studying modern musicproduction at the rock academy, evolving and developing into the artist he is today. he released on numerous labels like kanzleramt, trapez, ec records, global undergound , gem records and of course be real and bla bla . he also did countless remixes for labels like bush, weave music, tronic and many more. his previous release on be real recordings, the love from above received excelent feedback and was played and loved by many djs. also his track on the recently released bla bla spring sampler did some serious damage on many dancefloors with this unresistable groove and funk in his music be real is very proud to welcome peter back for his second ep on be real with 4 brand new tracks

no time to rest, here is anandas next on basmati. like his smash single >doppelwhipper< the present tracks for his >live series< were performed live on stage. >hey blop< is a perfect and very playable summertrack while >give me five< shows how percussions should be looped into great techno.

returning to the plus 8 fold once more, paco osuna is one of spains finest electronic exports. having made a name for himself with a residency at amnesia over a decade ago, he hass since gone on to play places like watergate, fabric and movement festival, all the while holding down a residency for barcelonas club4 night at city hall. his experience in the studio goes way back, too, with releases on drumcode and minus as well as mindshake - the techno imprint he founded in 2005. the osuna sound has never strayed too far from the pulsing heart of the dancefloor - despite investigating everything from dark and fierce to stripped and raw techno - and thats the case once again on his four ep …

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

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

the unclear concept is to produce a special music, to combine genres like deep, techno and electronic, trying not have a precise musical genre but experimenting always new sounds.

die 4 herren der harten schule zeigen was die heute noch alles drauf haben ... the quartet don?t just push all the right leftfield buttons and bling the tweak fantastic, they also reinvent the contemporary groove and find funk in the freak. superb stuff that defies classification ? just like the producers themselves.

the brilliantly monikered big strick - familial elder to omar s and responsible for the odd killer release on his younger cousins fxhe imprint - belatedly sates the appetite of record collectors keen to indulge in his recent album detroit heat with a six track selection of the choicest cuts spread across this twelve inch. seemingly drawing influence from a myriad of motor city influences, detroit heat impressively flits between murky deep house, tracky techno and hypnotic jack-tracks. like many of his contemporaries, strick is a sucker for cement mixer production - that distinctly detroitian sound where every beat, groove or bassline sounds like the master tapes have been marinated in grit. that trademark sound, alongside a solid selection of floor-friendly grooves, makes detroit heat an excellent addition to the motor city house canon. the rubbery spinal atmospherics of >under tone< and the tony coates vocally assisted jack of >maybe 1 day< are particular highlights!

first release, and first vinyl for the newborn label oasi lab that make his enter in the labels world with 2 original mix + 2 remix produced by famous artists: vito cacciapaglia aka sinc, international producer renowned for its outputs on labels like bla bla records, viva , material and mr. bizz classy producers, famous thanks to releases produced on material, tuning spork and collaborations with mihalis safras and the remix for dj chus ... the first release move the groove original mix sees duo andrea loche & corrado zonnedda up against sonorities like funk with modern tech house taste and breaks thrilling counterattack perfect for the most exigent dancefloor, moove the groove remix sees mr.bizz duo making a pure dynamite techno remix with as common denominator the dance floor. for the second original mix oslo is the same, it is intended to burning the track with interweaving of voices and chords in the breaks that are becoming more pungent andexplosive! in the same side we can find the second remix by vito cacciapaglia that gives us an elegant rhythm track with references to cosmic music using sinth too, perfect for dance floor

diese keith hudson aufnahme von 1974 ist so etwas wie ein verlorenes schmuckst?ck, das wegen seines gesangsstil in den letzten jahren immer mehr an bedeutung gewonnen hat. untergebracht in einem sonnigen cover artwork klang entering the dragon mit keith hudosns unverwechselbarem vocal style zu seiner zeit wahrscheinlich ziemlich erschreckend, wirkt aber heutztage wie ein wendepunkt in der entwicklung von dancehall und hip hop. besonders highlights sind st?cke wie will you come out tonight , it was when friends started to talk about you und rage of love !

crookers serve up more out of this world delights ... phra & bot aka crookers follow up their ground breaking dr.gonzo bust em up ep with yet more out of this world gonzo madness! the gonzo anthem ep is another three track excursion to planet gonzo where italian duo crookers seem to be spending most of their time these days. dr.gonzos anthem is a melodic wonderment, that sounds like the soundtrack to an unreleased 80s sci fi flick, just when your thinking what a lovely tune, it turns psychotic

like the feathery namesakes from the animal world, rss discos song >lovebird< is a social and affectionate creature. meticulously handcrafted in sprawling sessions together with hamburg live-techno duo sugarwater and remixed by friends (christopher rau / smallville, pampa) & family (achim maerz / freund der familie, dérive), itll be your summer love. the song breathes temperament from down below: the bass line is pure warmth only to be matched by meandering melodies and blissed out chords. gorgeous gold on black screen print makes a sweet start for hamburg based label mireia – cuckoo to you!

when some collaborations occur, it feels like fate has been paying close attention, planning something special. on one hand: bugge wesseltoft, pianist, composer and pioneer of electronic jazz, on the other: henrik schwarz, one of the most sought after producers of electronic music who has remixed stars from michael jackson to ane brun. this combination may not seem as radical as once it might, as in the days before bugges new conception of jazz, but the results most certainly are: this does not feel like your typical electronic jazz outing. its a super-group in microcosm. wesseltoft comes from a jazz background and has moved towards electronic music. he started on the ecm label with jan garbarek, and later collaborated with club music legends like laurent garnier and francois kervorkian on stage. schwarz comes from the chicago/ detroit techno culture, and performs at music festivals and in clubs on all continents. he has been moving towards the jazz and improvisation

franksen & tom wax, two of the main characters of the frankfurt house scene releases there second bomb on amusedrecords. smoker is an realy hypnotic deep tech house track with some progressive house elements in it. cant control it on a2 is the most housy track on this ep. classical house elements like hi strings, vocals, analog cords meets a massive tech house groove. just like this on b1 is the most drum oriented track on this phatt ep. absolutly a massiv clubtrack that will rock your floor!

these are two of the best t. flynn tracks ive heard. budgie smuggler is a fresh club jam that sounds like deez nuts and keep listening is a red alert, 4 alarm big room only rocker.

cool, dark underground club monsters. being a top player in the music industry is not an easy task! but with 15years in the business and over 150 releases, 50+ remixes & 300+ compilation appearances the numbers of jeffs output speak for them self’s. jeff started creating music in 1994 and got hooked on it directly, but it took until 1998 before his first single was to come out on his own label maskros music. since that single he has released on labels like poker flat, night drive music, episode, treibstoff, kickin music, konvex konkav, plastic city, global underground, regular etc.

following his two recent singles on scubas hotflush recordings, london based george fitzgerald is back with his much-anticipated third release and his debut for aus music. titled silhouette, the three-track ep includes two originals and a remix from american producer john roberts. fitzgerald once again manages to create a world in which garage, dubstep, house, r&b and a host of other musical influences happily co-exist. on silhouette hints of warm acid, layered oscillating synth lines, propulsive beats and fitzgeralds signature use of vocal samples make this a peak time affair, albeit an incredibly lush one. reset is eight minutes of forward thinking uk garage combined with the melodic sensibilities of detroit techno. for the silhouette remix, roberts develops a relentless broken groove, occasionally punctured by brief piano interludes that recall the sounds of his 2011 debut full-length on dial records, glass eights. a breathtaking remix that sounds like nothing else out there at the moment. in addition to silhouette, fitzgerald currently has remixes out for french house producer brawther on secretsundaze and uk bass artist throwing snow, as well as an upcoming ep on hotflush and a track on the labels recent compilation, back and 4th. this year will also bring the founding of man make music, a new label fitzgerald is starting with friends.

welcome back sebastian s solo work! after the excellent his first mix cd wa wu we and first solo ep voices around the fire , he came back with two excellent songs. on a side, alva is dubby, psychedelic house. it sounds like more techno version of omar-s. this track will be great dj tool for everyone. on b side, lyssna då björkarna viskar is peaceful ambient house with the sound of bird s singing.

in just a matter of months, life and death has swiftly established itself as purveyors of quality contemporary dance music, made by artists who would undoubtedly make anyone s short list of who i d like to invite to my afterparty . it seems only fitting then that with their newest release they ve recruited the undisputed kings of late night mayhem and madness for a paen tribute to that beautiful party after the party, the continuation of all things good and twisted.. the afterparty itself. not to take the issue of such a joyful celebration lightly, dop has gone on secret missions over the last 6 months, quietly (and often not so quietly) infiltrating afterparties worldwide and secretly extracting pituitary secretions from the rowdiest party goers at each of them. they then took these secretions, burned them in a special voodoo ceremony and immediately went into the studio to create a fitting tribute to the after-hours festivities we all hold so dear. once that was complete, friends were invited and even more deviants came to the party for some dirty late night remix action. clockwork (who s recently released it s you again on hot creations has already been the soundtrack to many an after party) are here, french wolf+lamb collaborator le loup is here, mas collective (who recorded on seminal nyc label strictly rhythm) is here and marius & david are here too.. everybody giving it their own special flavor. what an afterparty indeed.

as the producer responsible for some of lil b and soulja boys weirdest, most inventive beats, and following on from a critically acclaimed, self released mixtape of instrumentals collected from his work over the years with various forward thinking hip hop artists, tri angle is very excited to announce the release of >rainforest<, the debut ep by clams casino. the five songs that make up >rainforest< find clams casino (aka 23 year old new jersey native, michael volpe) refining his ethereal, otherworldly sound, whilst taking it to a heavier and more intense extreme. what has set clams casino apart from most other hip hop producers is his skill in making records that sound just as good, if not better, instrumentally as they do with vocals, and if anyone needed it, >rainforest< represents the confirmation of this. its a record drenched in mysterious atmospherics, like a foggy memory of a far off exotic place, the details buried beneath the mist of distortion, but present nonetheless. none of the songs on >rainforest< have ever been released before, and in contrast to most of his other productions these songs have always existed purely as instrumentals, free of any vocal presence. >rainforest< is an incredibly powerful release which signals the beginning of clams casino coming into his own and operating as an important artist in his own right

after his last ep on stil vor talent in 2009, born-and-bread berliner sascha braemer is now back with three fresh tracks for the spring of 2011. in the meantime, his funky minimal jump-up tech-house has led him to release on labels as prolific as kindisch or dirtybird. things kick off with >belle<, a ferocious attack on your groove muscles and dancing bones. this tune glides as softly as the wings of an angel while shaking you around like a giant would a dwarf. the up-beat groove is based on a great cut-up vocal sample and some animating synthesizer stabs. sweet! then, >felicitous<, which is considerably slower than the previous two tracks. still, the vocal on this one and the deep electronic body come together perfectly to form a deep and dirty suckerpunch to your euphoria synapses. last up is >people< keeps the effected vocal approach and that really makes this tune. imagine a super deep bassline, some wonderfully syncopated hi-hat trickles and a constant groove to underline the power of the vocal. this track is club pop - so deep and yet so magic it will run shivers down your spine on the breakdown. sascha braemer seems to have put all his experience of peak-time club moments to early morning afterhour visions into his own transcript of signature sound. this is not be mistaken, this is simply on-point

miami based producer danny daze is breaking out with a bang, he is responsible for the biggest underground hit of miami wmc 2011 with >your everything<, and it looks like its shaping up to be the biggest record of the summer!

patrick lindsey is no new comer . active in the techno world since more than a decade , releasing music on labels like terminal m , kanzleramt , kling klong , sci_tec to name a few . so when davide squillace and luca bacchetti received a demo from the german producer , they were really impatient to open the zip file and discover what was inside . the two discovered a four track ep full of analogue synths , organic beats and grooooove . so here is hideout ninth reference : get up and bounce ep by patrick lindsey . it all starts with > what i remember < a very strong anthem with a disco funk loop background and deep vocals by k. mason. the title track > get up and bounce < is next with its hypnotic >get up< voice snipet on top of a shuffled semi acoustic groove full of cow bells and snare drums. third track of the ep is named lockruf , evolving from a jazz sample thru vocal snipets , crazy drum rolls and saxo hooks. the last track of the ep is schleifkraft where a straight to the point chicago groove is topped with some more vocals , a very bouncy bass line and analogue synth sounds . a new reference in the hideout catalogue , four new techno tracks soon to become classics !

marc romboy teams up with paris the black fu (detroit grand pubahs) to pay tribute to the dark mood of detroit techno! rolando: >kenny remix is cooool but the original edges it for me!< // seth troxler: >this is perfect for detroit< // dave clark: >great, just in time for detroit< // norman nodge: >i like both versions of this..dark n lovely!< // agoria: >this is great! full support on original< // l. garnier: <the original is big for me!< // ambivalent: >the original is tight as hell and kennys remix super sick< // funk d void: >f*cking great<

>supergravity<, a simultaneously gritty while ambient track of the highest order, recalls not only drexciya and the detroit underground in its prime, but the ambient techno hey day of artists like the black dog and the inimitable lfo. >atlas detection<, with its subsonic rumble and pins-and-needles like synths is music for the dancefloor at the ripest darkest hour. harnessing noise in the most seductive of ways, it is undeniable in its extraterrestrial appeal. >andolit swaras< displays the minds of minimalist composers, with its striking approach of having its melody lead the narrative it tells- as opposed to dancefloor traditions of rhythmic domination. it is intelligent and dream-like, sublime and filled with reverie, as random as the dreams that ones psyche presents. lastly, they give us a real bite into a slice of phuture hip hop. working with sensational, legendary mc for the jungle brothers, they twist hip hop into an acidic downtempo track that hits hard to say the least. its a dubsteppers dream on some level, but with a crafty psychedlic component that mesmerizes.

backchat titled ep is filled with three tracks, all spiked with steady beats, funk, deep melodic chords and an overall glamour house feel. this is not only very well produced electronic music, its also a journey through deepness and a modern take on the soulful side of the electronic music which exceeds the genre by far with a rich, colourful palette of surprising, individual sounds, butter-smooth chords, some of the most raunchiest bassline that you ll ever hear outside of drum n bass, cleverly constructed beat patterns that yet never fail to jack and swing and an understanding of dub that goes far beyond the random use of echo and effects. on vinyl – as we like our little record-shop around the corner.

supported by luciano, claude vonstroke, alexi delano, ekkohaus, shinedoe, estroe. once more, a newcomer is going to be introduced on this tonkind release. its samuel fach, better known as laufmasche, who mainly was producing and remixing for the techno genre, is now getting more into a fresh-funky house sound. the change of residence from the mid-german student city giesen to the pulsating captile berlin, suppose to give him a fresh creative spring time. simple pleasure becomes his new calling card on this new project. this up-coming tracks are one after the other an absolute ear catcher and gives you an easy access to this open but already significant individuel sound. with an special touch and in a simple way, samuel fach combines soulful keys and lead sounds with an classic repetitive house-beat, without sounding mainstream or retro. he mediates a feeling of freshness and warmth, either with peak time runners like murter or discore or the expanding smotha work on the show and simple pleasure. all tracks, you will hear instantly, are coming from the same citchen, where a young and creative chef is cooking amazing stuff with very special flavour. one thing for sure... more choices of samuels menus will succeed.

here is some more disco ammo from mdd. >me for you for me< may be based on a classic, but the crowd reaction when it was played at a recent warehouse party shows theres certainly still life in the old dog yet. john luongo thought he d nailed it when he put the breakdown before the verses? pff.. what verses? then theres >think< – not the usual sound we have come to know from al kent possibly – no strings? no percussion?? ah, but theres a squelchy synth. finally theres waltered states. this is possibly what it would sound like if walter gibbons and ron hardy went on a bender then made some edits together.

mr beatnick has played an active part in the burgeoning uk beats scene which has produced talents like bullion and paul white. his best known track >i know all the bitches< featuring the vocal talents of ahu, became one of the anthems of this movement, thanks to numerous spins on the likes of bbc radio 1 and rinse fm. in his music you can hear the influence of whole generations of music from mantronix to the 90s bay area scene and beyond, and the new ep >synthetes< takes this approach up a gear, exploring a path between the crackling breaks and samples of old, and the dancefloor music of now. with early support from braiden (rinse fm), slackkk (numbers), bullion (young turks), mosca (nightslugs / fat city) and gilles peterson (bbc radio 1), the >synthetes ep< looks set to find a unique place in the record boxes of bass addicts and beat diggers alike this summer.

marius takes a break from his recent studio lp work with prins thomas and delivers another killer release on maxi discs. continuing his journey into ny influenced dance music, he unleashes >glow of filter & dub< an epic 10 min ride into the musical world of legendary clubs like the paradise garage and body & soul that inspired him. it even has an old school drum break to drive your dance floor crazy. you can smell the sweat on this one - work it! on the flip, deep house heads 6th borough project work their subtle magic on >love gun< and create a house vibe that is deeper than deep. while disco deviant dicky trisco strips back >glow of filter & dub< to the bare essentials and works it to the max in a tribute to early tony humphries proto - house style cuts like ma foom bey.

with >dimensions part1< the analog roland orchestra delivers four crispy dub techno spring rolls – each filled with a surprise ear charmer. from silent hip mover to brute dancefloor breaker no matter how you like it – these releases have it all. out as numbered of 333 limited 10 inch hardcopies on translucent marbled vinyl at selected stores. pastalavista!

another first for electric minds, we present the debut 12 inch from endian. with follow up releases already signed to non plus and further label support to come we are sure it wont be too long before his music reaches a wider audience. we would like to let the music do the talking :)

early support by: andrey tarkovsky, fiodor m.dostoyewski, g.i. gurdjieef, antonio velasco pina, lev tolstoy.

dj t.s pleasure principle immersed itself, wholly and rapturously, into electronic musics legacy of soul, and helped to usher in a new period of groove-heavy deepness. like an antidote to clinical club sounds, album standout tracks like sense inject some well needed groove into the dancefloor. the maxi version of sense partners faraway melodies with james teejs breathy vocals that get up close and personal. a deep electro funk bass riff establishes its intent, and snaky percussion leads to a more structured house beat. piping flute sounds and drum echoes add an element of swing, while analogue handclaps and the tracks distinctive bass line recall its retro pedigree. newcomers tale of us continue their journey into dark minimalism, with a remix that isolates the percussion and vocals, shrouding both in reverb for maximum atmospheric effect. a sense of unease pervades through the saturated bassline and slow delayed handclaps, creating frosty mists and dark corners within the synth-tech house arrangement. hot natured duo lee foss and jamie jones next bring their sunny midas touch to the proceedings. teasing out the intro with high hats and layered vocals, a sense of anticipation is high. it blooms into sleek, skittering beats and otherworldly sounds, with a bass line thats been cut & paste back into place, before it delves deeper into a menacing deep bass synth rumble. the club version begins with a kick, deep echoes and meek percussive sounds that loop upwards through the scale. the distinctive bass line and handclaps begin, then teejs unadulterated vocals are pushed to the fore. brittle metallic synth flares appear from below the bass-heavy beat and recede again, ending in an electro-disco retro groove

from now on, the duo’s ascent was constant and then lightning struck: remixes for n.e.r.d, britney spears, franz ferdinand, u2, daft punk, lenny kravitz and an ep in 2006 (” waters of nazareth “) defining the “justice sound, this famous ultra-powerful compression of pop and baroque melodies, both dark and threatening, lightning and animative, and above all the famous justice image, the cross from which an earlier version figures on the first ep. 2007 was the explosion that will turn the duo into the emblem of a whole generation: their first album “†, anticipated like the messiah, holds all the promises, and swept everything away as an epic soundtrack. “†” is more than a magnificent synthesis of our time: its potential definition. 800 000 sales worldwide and 4 years later, the album is considered as a mainstay of the 2000s puzzled and tonic, one of the few who bridged the gap from pitchfork world to mtv without losing its credibility. ++etched vinyl + 90 cm x 60 cm poster (500 are signed by the band !!!)++

for its eighth release theres no other responsible than oliver schories, who did several releases on labels like ostwind records, parquet recordings or musik gewinnt freunde (just to name a few), which attracted a lot of attention! on his organ freeway ep oliver delivers a summer track which immeadiately puts you into good humor, no matter if heard in the morning to get up, in the clubs or especially on every upcoming open air party! just get on his >organ freeway<, theres no speed limit! the b-side is somehow darker and moody, like the title >treibsand< promises youll sink in layers of sounds, directed by the low-tuned piano, perfect addition to >organ freeway<! all together a huge summertune which is going to be released on lovely 10 inch-vinyl!

the unique partnership is the brainchild of local dance music aficionado dj vidis. he teamed up with top lithuanian producer mario basanov in 2007 to form the most influential local production combo and to deliver what could be the freshest sounding and truly adventurous house music in lithuania and around. vidis and marios first vocal track and video >i ll be gone< featuring young but much promising lithuanian singer and songwriter jazzu became national phenomena on its own right. hitting number one in radio charts, not leaving mtv baltic top 20 for half a year, and becoming the most blogged and youtubed lithuanian music video ever says it all. and the single featuring british songstress kathy diamond as well as vaguely provoking black and white video cemented their reputation as local institution and the purveyors of top quality deep sounds. with duos debut album released december 2010 on their own silence music to big commercial success as well as a few singles being lined-up for early 2011 on top notch international labels like japanese endless flight, australian future classic, german best works, and british crosstwonrebels also remix work commissioned from soul clap, john talabot, andre lodemann, marcus worgull, and softwar the future looks bright and bold.

marcus gehring fits in with upon you like vodka shots at an after hour. his funky and trippy sound grooves until sunrise and thats the way we like it. it doesnt matter whether its the title track >on a trip< on a1 or >in between< on the flipside with its bouncy bass line.
