donnacha costello returns with another release for his new label and platform, look long. the tragedy of the commons sees him continuing his mission to create work of lasting quality and beauty. gatsby has that most rare and ephemeral quality, that certain something not easily defined. work which is at once both raw and full of subtlety. something which is at once both instantly familiar and yet inescapably new. fathoms deep pulls the listener in with each rotation until we are so thoroughly hypnotised we cannot but surrender to its insistent, organic pulse. baritoneÆs melancholy lo-fi guitars and roland 606 drums wrap around us like a warm blanket on a cold night. a private oasis, a moment of comfort in a lonely city before the body gives in to sleep. this is no throwaway music. this is music to keep, to live with, to grow with. this is music in which comfort can be sought and solace found

aspekt strikes back with their actually release. the new great 4 track ep by marcio kantana includes the tracks funky sax, rock and sound and fashion touch, contrast itself with a great and special minimal sound. the guys of aspekt makes oneself conspicuous individually and want to go one better with their next record. as one of the most popular live acts in berlin marcio kantana has found his own style for himself that is extravagant and still afloat melodically. no wonder that the new aspekt release is not matchable with one of the previous records once again. moreover its worth it to hear a great remix from microtune & takter.

dass tracks aus dem hause reboot in der vergangenen cocoon-saison eine herausragende rolle spielten, dürfte niemandem verborgen geblieben sein, schließlich konnte sich der 30jährige frankfurter produzent frank heinrich bereits zusammen mit johnny d. im rahmen des >disco invaders<-cocoon ibiza summer mix in einer art live-jam-session austoben. umso verblüffender, dass erst jetzt nach releases auf below und cadenza endlich die erste reboot-12 inch auf cocoon erscheint. >ronson< macht mit seinem tribalistischen einschlag schnell klar, wohin die reise geht, mit alarmsirenen und druckluftausstoß zeigt sich heinrich hier so kompromisslos energetisch wie nie und bleibt dabei maximal pumpend, aber immer sexy. etwas abwartender strukturiert, gönnt das polyrhythmisch perkussive >mirasierra< dann den erschöpften tänzerinnen und tänzern eine kleine atempause, auch wenn die kräftig dub-verzierte bassline dabei ganz schön diskoide glücksmomente setzt. für die gefühlten tropischen momente im jetzigen frühjahr sind jedenfalls beide tracks bestens geeignet!!

uk born, japanese based max essa delivers us a tasty morsel and appetizer for his upcoming album on bearfunk. drive time is a slice of trademark slick, slo mo disco. with live drums, rolling bass synths and sundrenched chord changes, the track conjures up visions of sunsets, surfboards, highway 101 and long lazy days. irish based john daly delivers his re rub on the flip, adding in chunky stabs and rolling synth lines... but still managing to retain the slo mo feel.

reissue of album from 1975/a satisfying dramatics collection that includes their revised, campy version of me and mrs. jones, which had remained a staple of their live shows. astrology was riding high in the mid 70s, and (i m going by) the stars in your eyes provided fodder for astrological discussions as the guys poo poohed the differences in personality traits associated with the signs. a good balance of fast and slow tunes helps make this album a winner. good things dont come easy and never let you go are two frantic dancers that chug along faster than a speeding locomotive, while trying to get over losing you succeeds in treating losing your lover in a positive, uplifting way. the guys must have been loaded with material to keep this one off a 45. likewise for the aching, painful i cried all the way home, one of tony hesters best compositions, and easily the best ballad on the album.

superb sixth release on open source sees mutate & distort deliver a classic slice of acid on the a. flip for london warehouse live p.a legend t.t on a huge percussive tip & then tokyos dj tearz banging it with a slightly more electro vibe.

for the 25th release on recognition, one of the premiere polish export goods, label boss jacek sienkiewicz teams with a longtime friend, and extraordinary musician, chilean maestro pier bucci. both have been playing together for some time now, and this debut studio recording hopefully will not be the last. despite obvious cultural differences, both artists share some curious sensibility and/or sort of modern romanticism - underpinned either with latin optimism (bucci) or a kind of slavic melancholy (sienkiewicz). add to this the dopest tech-house beats available today, and dancefloor destruction is guaranteed.the title track is a cross-genre time bomb, obviouslydesigned to mess with the heads while the bodies can t stop moving. kicking off with driving, solid beat of almost live feel, soon it develops into a symphony of carefully crafted and meticulously assembled sounds. we are treated by some strange woodwinds, jokingly reminding of jacek s previous hit outing, beacon , and... is this the pope we hear talking for a moment...? …

these tracks do live up to their names - they are intense technogrooves that float around and through you like water and air.

krystian, ibrahim and marcin open up their machines and release all the crazy soundgnomes that live inside onto this piece of wax. and man, do they have fun!

for the very first time on kitsune to the exception of a remix! etienne de crecy does an impressive live show with cubes highly recommended. with daft punk, air and alex gopher, he is a member of the french producers club who made history. his track here is techno in the old and noble sense of the term. ultraviolence on the dancefloor. each time its played in clubs, faces look like they are melting, the crowd is on its knees, begging for mercy and they are happy to be there. then >hanukkah< also works in the car monsieur jo, etiennes partner here, is a sound engineer and has produced albums for phoenix and cazals.the ep includes remixes from rising french producers les petits pilous and kitsunes favorite australian dj beni!

limited double lp version. it comes housed in a gatefold replica lp package. tonight is the brand new album from franz ferdinand recorded between glasgow and london by dan carey. explosive and infectious, and undeniably franz ferdinand, but a bigger, brighter beast. tonight is music of the night: to fling yourself around your room to as you psyche yourself for a night of hedonism, for the dancefloor, flirtation, for your desolate heart stop, for losing it and loving losing it, for the chemical surge in your bloodstream. its for that lonely hour gently rocking yourself waiting for dawn and it all to be even again.

crystal is a live band from tokyo also known as sunao maruyama altogether influence by yoko ono, depeche mode, human league, cristina or art of noise, and you can surely tell listening to their productions. here they grant us with a 5 tracks ep on french famous institubes inprint filled with fm synths, machine drums from the past, and analog tools...

already supported by johnny d., someone else, laurent garnier, jennifer cardini, florian meindl, david keno.. erich lesovsky is the newest addition to stil vor talents exciting artist roster. here comes someone who is totally fascinated and absorbed by technology, someone who only performs as a live act in the clubs and - in the time of digital machinery - still works on constructing his own devices to make music with. after singles for wba and keno records, it is now the time for his first release on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent imprint and mr. lesovsky is very happy to be part of the family. so are we, of course! not only, but also because his first ep is a killer display of musical wizardry. it stars off with >bell a donna<, a minimal funk-laden piece of music that is mainly based on some crisp beats, many warm effects and sounds and a melody so simple, yet so encapsulating to capture the heart of every dancer in the club. this is oldskool minimal funk at its best! next up is >93 percent<, a title that might be misleading at first, because this track sounds more like 150 percent really. a great loop made of fidgety techno hi-hats and some wonderful warm analogue sounds - this could well be termed a new form of fidget techno. last up is >riot beatz<, an experimental display of minimal sound design, yet still very danceable. lots of crystal bashing beats, a pumping bass and many little effects - this will definitely be one for the dancefloor in the morning hours. not only does e. lesovsky seem a master of sound, his expertise seems to cover the perfect creation of warm, yet basic tech anthems and his influences seem to come from all sorts of musical directions, from hip-hop to funk to house back to techno. it is the easiness with which he delivers his music that makes his sound designs so special!

after 2 successful eps and massive remixes for metronomy and whomadewho its now time for more discodeine vinyl action. this third ep called tom select is definitly dedicated to the dancefloor... frankly, the track speaks for itself but if you need some influences lets say smith n hack/lfo/frankie bones... but you should know by now that discodeine is only sounding like discodeine right? the remixes are provided by some people that we admire for a long time: la horse (danton eeprom & ivan smagghe) and joakim. la horse provided a trippy remix, with live drums, electronic wizzardy and insanely beautiful pop harmonies while joakim is more on that nasty techno vibe we all love.

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.

second vinyl version of the cd album with more magical works of unit moebius. including the funking >beat that perculator< re-arranging >i beat that bitch with a bat<, >its time for the perculator< and >the pressure cooker< into a totally dirty twisted the hague jack track! the flip side contains the more deeper side from their first releases. for those who were there in those years 91/ 92/ 93, at the famous parties in the hague and rotterdam, this is a walk down memory lane, for those to young or living in other parts of the world... imagine these tracks in a dark, very dark sweaty basement with only strobe light and smoke machines, camouflage nets, and jacking acid and techno sounds for more then 10 ours. djs such as i-f, serge, schmerzlabor, peter ptau ptau and live acts such as unit moebius played the hottest and freshest music all night long until you lost your sense of time and place and ended in a total mind trip. the pure essence of house and techno! the golden years.
