>seleccion natural< is a project made by the cream of spanish techno, this four part work has seen the light on different labels and now its time for warm up.
oscar mulero delivers the original parts and version for this tune, reworked and revisited by the rest of the partners in crime: christian wunsch, exium and reeko, each one giving their own vision on the noises made by oscar.
original mix kicks off with broken rhythms, crunchy and industrial like, with a heavy synth line approaching till sweeping drones and abstract textures bring to an epic breakdown that will sure destroy more than one bass speaker. another energetic piece of intelligent dance floor techno.
wunschs work is more direct and 4x4 based, taking the synth line from the original and adding detroit flavoured stabs and sharp claps to make a massive techno tool.
exium offers a completely different vision, using the drones and textures as starring, plus arpeggiated synths and baroque percussions fills the arrangement. energy is the word for this remake.
closing release reekos version recreate the spirit of the original, with broken drums again, using the synths on a clever way, extending the arrangement longer on an epic development till the bass drum comes in after 3 minutes of metallic madness. the ultimate release of a series on the most eclectic way. absolute quality.

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
both of the remixers we chose represent different sounds in techno that have influenced mikes sound.
1: sophisticated italian groove*
giorgio gigli is an italian minimal-trance maestro, an incredibly modern renaissance man who is also a trained sommelier.** he is rising in the ranks and catching up in profile to his occasional production partner, donato dozzy. hopefully we will have more of his tracks on turbo soon.
2: m¦n¦m¦l
hobo is a fellow canadian best known for his excellent work on m¦nus. rumor has it, he borrowed richies quad-macro template file to finish the final version of this remix... whatever he did, his second effort came up huge, this mix is excellent.
enjoy!

luke slaters mote evolver label is not pulling any punches. having shaken the techno scene to its boots last month with the release of ortin cams no-holes-barred >carnage<, the label moves on to their funky 13th release.
the name cari lekebusch is synonymous with what has made techno the musical powerhouse that it has become. globally recognized as a founding force behind the swedish techno movement alongside the triumvirate of adam beyer, jesper dahlbäck and joel mull, lekebuschs distinctive musical style and creative integrity has graced leading label from drumcode to soma to harthouse and turbo and spawned a career that has maintained over nearly two decades.
spindizzy is a deftly crafted funked-up tech house track. constructed from a palette of harmonically aligned keys, bass and horns, its intensity comes from the measured way in which each element is given the space to breath its own energy into the mix. pacey but musical, subtle yet memorable, this is a standout record.
luke slater adding his bass sodden l.b dub corp twist to the track completes the package. deeply dubbed-out tribal rhythms take the mix on a more left-of centre path that winds through a busy soundscape of atmospheric acoustics that seem to breathe in deeply before being exhaled in a release of firing percussion.

azari & iii, pronounced a-zar-ee and third, is the clandestine collaboration between toronto based producers dinamo azari and alixander iii. with a sound both futuristic and reminiscent, bold tracks like hungry for the power (released on im a cliche records) and the now following brazen reckless (with your love) have made their way onto the top of the taste makers charts and into the sets of many renowned djs.

endless flight proudly announce japanese super duo force of natures kza first solo release. this 12 inch is a second single cut from his debut solo album! kza have released 3 album and many singles + remixes as force of nature and they became one of the best artist in the nu disco scene. kza is one of the most popular djs in japan and well known as one of the biggest vinyl collectors. this time he teamed up with kuniyuki aka koss as a production partner and this single was made with many obscure old records. a side, >gothenergy< is his favorite style dark body music. the revenge is working for the remix! b side, both tracks are melancholic cosmic stuff but kza said >capricone< is best favorite track on the album.

lets go back to 1999 with this 1st release for dutch patterns label! made by complex aka orlando voorn.

rmxs by shonky, alex celler, sierra sam !! bloody mary’s black pearl made quite a splash this summer, receiving a storm of praise from djs and critics alike – especially impressive considering it was her debut album, as well as the first full-length record on contexterrior. awarded 4 out of 5 stars from dj mag and resident advisor, and getting play from a wide cast of djs (tiefschwarz, adam beyer, luciano and so on), black pearl has set itself apart as contender for techno album of the year!

supported by monika kruse, adam beyer, jakob hilden, dave seaman, laurent garnier, kiko, john digweed, nic fanciulli, barem, chris liebing, danny tenaglia. yes, the world can be a cocktail and kaiserdisco are surfing on a wave of success following their track espandrillo. espandrillo made it into the richie hawtin us bus tour 2009 chart and has been re-entering charts worldwide for numerous times since. we think that with amalfino kaiserdisco will be hitting the top 10 charts of many dj s again. amalfino is a strong driving percussive track that builds on child vocals, creating a bit of a fairy-light atmosphere within a massive production. bailetteo is a track that can be understood a bit as a continuation of amalfino working with similar vocals but has less of a peak time formula. with >carachillo< kaiserdisco have added a cool and deep, housy track with indian vocals and samples, which could be cool for the house community.

no. 3 in the renowned series dark stars on noir music gives you an even deeper insight into >noirs< weird head and critically acclaimed dj sets as we unleash some of the exclusive and previously unreleased noir edits. but dark stars volume 3 is much more than that. dark stars volume 3 is about the quality of house music. all tracks included have been big tracks for noir in the clubs and we guarantee they ve been tried in tested around the world before they made it to this compilation. we hope you enjoy the collection of quality music as much as we do

no. 3 in the renowned series >dark stars< on noir music gives you an even deeper insight into >noirs< weird head and critically acclaimed dj sets as we unleash some of the exclusive and previously unreleased noir edits. but dark stars volume 3 is much more than that. in short. dark stars volume 3 is about the quality of house music. all tracks included have been big tracks for noir in the clubs and we guarantee they ve been tried in tested around the world before they made it to this compilation. we hope you enjoy the collection of quality music as much as we do

the 2nd vinyl release of house mannequin features two disco house tracks and comes as a limited edition white label. the first track is titled: but i cant see that dancin you. it is based on an old 80s track which has been cut up to a perfect modern disco house track. a track for the peak time of every disco house set! the second side consists of a gently grooving disco edit track named draw. both songs have a very positive vibe. although made for the dance floor, you can enjoy both tracks on your small home hifi too.greg wilson, jesse rose and many more supported the last release house mannequin ep1 and the new ep will definitely find lots of new friends in the house community.

bodo elsel has only done a handful of records and the two that i have known and loved since 1998 were put out on playhouse, the excellent housey sister-label of mighty klang elektronik. one track in particular, discount baby, has always stood out in my mind as a high water mark in the sacred art of groove (you may have heard of it). punchy accents and resonant bass layered with trippy vocal loops, its dubby acid house of the highest order, made by a mysterious german lego-master, who the a&r team of mike mind and thomas st shindig managed to coax back into activity.
it only took bodo a year to answer mr. minds email, but he eventually delivered three amazing tracks... >haustier< revitalizes piano house. >mai< is incredible, and >mein haus< is one of the top few all-time expressions of the greatness/meaning of germany, putting it in the fine company of the autobahn, sven väth and christmas-market schwein. nice wibes!!
the icing on the cake was that bodo made it very clear he wanted no part in royalties or any of that business crap... he just wanted 42 copies of the record. yes. 42.
we were so inspired by all of this that we decided to put this record out in a different way for us that just feels right this time.... if you want to find out just how good the >mein haus ep< is, you will have no choice but to buy a copy of the 12 inch because this one is a vinyl exclusive!

love from montreal,

after a split 12’’ and two eps from its founders, your favourite vinyl-only label welcomes an exciting new artist for its fourth release. hailing from berlin, hunee is a true music lover, a passionate dj and an amazing producer (not to mention a top notch friend). his recent productions on feel music, w.t. records and drumpoet community have caught the ear of many key players and made him one to watch in 2010. needless to say, hunee takes it to a whole other level with his barrio payment trilogy: from soulful house to slow-mo disco via afrobeat, the producer holds nothing back and that’s exactly how we like it at retreat hq. starting off with swinging hi-hats and a wah-wah loop, foundation builds excitement before a killer organ riff and bouncy bassline manage to bring the last non-dancers on the floor. ..

sychi sychi is the second and exclusive release of denkbar,a new and promising russian label managed by alex danilov and michel misha! the little owls attack and the russians strike again… analog passages, strings and flutes were very harmoniously entered in this hypnotizing atmosphere.
the first one delivered by b.a.d is so groovy, perfect for dancing… it features conversations between two spaniards and this emphasized the atmosphere of this track.
>de color verde< is the second track and was made by one of the labelboss, alex danilov! it offers a warm climate, a pleasant sound of a«short» guitar and sensual piano sequences.
with >weg afro<, the third track by michel, the other part of denkbar, you can imagine the shaman dancing near the fire and a church full of people of african origins! a lot of basses and percussions – giving you an excellent combination.

the phenomenal handclap band, are a many-membered ensemble which also features musicians from tv on the radio, jon spencer blues explosion and amy winehouses backing band the dap kings, all of whom contribute their individual talents to make for a very exciting whole. their sound is an anthemic, dancefloor-oriented blend of progressive rock, disco, electro, and 60s soul with sprinklings of hip hop-styled orchestral breakbeats and moody, synth-soaked & heavy hooks. using live instrumentation to evoke the intricate arrangements of norman whitfield, quincy jones and phil spector as well as the pared down beats of contemporaries like the neptunes and danger mouse.
a prime example of this melting pot of styles, this single >15 to 20< , combines >vintage sounds of blondie and esg with some css and james murphy thrown in< (zane lowe, bbc 1) to make for an instantly catchy disco pop concoction thats times-tabling chorus will be as popular in the playground as on the hottest dancefloors. >15 to 20< enjoyed spot plays from the likes of radcliffe & maconie, john kennedy and zane lowe, who made it his >hottest record in the world< and went on to describe it as his >breakthrough record of the year so far.< press-wise it has featured in the nmes 10 tracks you have to hear & in the guardians film & music playlist.

yore returns with yet another deep master piece. javier alvarez, a madrid based producer and proprietor (along with his younger brother dubbyman) of the underground label deep explorer music, brings his relaxed above smoke sound to the yore imprint. in the first of four warm and atmospheric mood pieces, awfully drapes dense synthetic winds over a deliciously grooving, bass prodded deep house pulse. get down does exactly that with five funky minutes of rhodes chords, disco hi hats, and synth swirls, a percolating bass line lends the track a propulsive charge, while crowd voices give the cut a party vibe. on the b sideÆs ôthe fixö javier scatters chopped fragments of the spoken line, i ve got a lot of shit to say and i cant say it all in one day, i cant say it all on one piece of tape, over a funk house groove, after which dubbyman offers variations on the theme in his remix of the track, dubbymans version digs deeper into the cuts bass science and warms the tunes slinky pulse with hand percussion and claps. old school in its embrace of classic house sounds, above smokes ep is tailor made for those who like their material laid back, groove centered, and funky.

awesome remake up of the inxs - im so crazy sample made famous by par t one

it was only a short time ago when these 2 young up and comers made their respective debuts on our label and in the few months between then and now, they have gone on to skyrocket up through the ranks, conquering dancefloors, charts and dj crates-while becoming household names synonymous with quality and consistency.
florian kruse and nils nürnberg need very little introduction these days but for those that have been asleep or living under a rock, a good start would be to check their recent output on fine labels such as nrk, om, moodmusic, dessous and our very own dieb, to name a very select few. their first combined effort on the label has resulted in the >suerte ep<, a tight collection of deep as hell, tech infused house numbers heavily characterized by their attention to groove and addictive, seductive chord progressions that have become a hallmark of their production prowess.
to add some spice to an already sterling and stylized package, we have enlisted our good friend (and also mood music alumnus) alexander maier, to remix the titular >suerte< where he adds his considerable musical vocabulary to the proceedings, peppering a very tasty arrangement with piano chord stabs and throbbing basslines resulting in a gorgeous, summery house re-interpretation that has to be heard to be believed!
as if this werent enough, fresh from an impressive debut on nils and florians save room records we have been lucky enough to secure a percussion led, funk infused remix of >achieving balance< from bright new boys on the block io who round things off nicely and add another dimension to the >suerte ep<.

the sound of the sixties and seventies has never been so sought after as at the present moment...

full artwork custom sleeves. n types label is on a roll right now and 003 sees a massive release from budapest based dj/producer matt u who is nothing less than a tune making machine. armed with a seriously heavy deep and techy based sound, matyas szalai has made a name for himself releasing hard and heavy drum & bass for labels as renowned as the legendary moving shadow, timeless and cylon. with over 34 releases to his name since 2004, this is one producer you should be keeping an eye on. his music encapsulates many genres of music, from drum & bass to dubstep, but all with that matt u sound running throughout. recently his dubstep tracks have been getting plenty of attention from djs such as n type, trg, luke envoy, tes la rok and many more. look out for his releases forthcoming on subway, boka and true tiger.

nice price deal !!! this release contains two balaeric vibing tracks made by amsterdam based producers-duo, red fulka. the a side is a wonderful piece of psychedelic bliss called >sunset<. the slo-mo groover kumpo (raihani & salgado remix) is on the flip. limited vinyl 10 inch release of 300 only!

its been almost a year since the release of efdemins fantastic two-tracker >america/the pulse<. >america<, that was also used on his curle mix-cd >carry on...<, became quite a big tune and even ended up on the number one spot in groove magazines chart. therefor efdemin preferred that no-one touched that track anymore, and we decided to give >the pulse< a remix treatment. john beltran is a highly respected artist that has been around since the early nineties - r&s! peacefrog! styrax! - and when we heard the ultra-funky mega-bomb he made from >the pulse<, we knew we made the right decision to ask him. another one of our long time favourites from accross the ocean is convextion aka e.r.p. he did some ground-breaking stuff on matrix, down low and frantic flowers. we asked him to do a remix of crcs amazing take on detroit techno, >vaskitsaherra<, originally on curle 009. the result ended up being nothing else than a timeless piece of art.

vinyl only !!! on the a side, you will discover a massive drum tool with discrete vocal snippets from xxxx xxxxxxxx which is specially made to create chaos in the club. on the flip side, xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxx is beautifully revisited for a mature dancefloor moment and last but not least a xxxxxxx version which comes to challenge xxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxx from a few years back. vinyl only! 500 copies! ps. yes we have started the xxx weeks.

ultraphat minimal tribal tech monster , made for fans of luciano / villalobos , reminds me on trompeta or blaue moschee (die v÷gel)

releasing >jeffer< as the first single is quite unsual regarding other power tracks that feature robot voices but who cares really anyway? berlin buddies modeselektor made their version of >jeffer< and themself say it sounds like the good days of audion when he is not so minimal - and they make it to the point. mdslktrs remix is a full on techno mix but playable for house or new rave djs as well. it extends every genres bouderies and presents a sound that everybody can meet at. on the flip you get para ones epic version which shows that he is still top of his game. after his classic remix for boys noize >my head< he answers >jeffer< with this banger. para one is pushing the good feeling of the original track to another level by adding new melodies and an epic breakdown in the middle of his mix. 2 killer remixes!

support by stephan bodzin, h.o.s.h, hugo, paco osuna, someone else, youandme, holger nielson, oliver klein, dj emerson.... incl. daniel steinberg remix.
nils ohrmann moved to berlin in the middle of the 90s, where he knew the rave culture was in full bloom- from e-werk to ostgut. he himself was a dj at the infamous schnabelbar in kreuzberg for eight years. since 2004 he has been a resident at rosis in friedrichshain. in may 2009 he made his first ep for hula hoop recordings (a sub-label of rompecabeza), which was a hit in the berlin clubs. coming up next is catalog number 2: >green sleeves<.

every new record from mlz doesnt quite fit in with the one that preceded it, something thats doubly true for this new release.
>one cycle< on the a-side is probably the most fierce, stripped and relentless thing ever released by modern love, a classic reduction that rotates into a frenzied crescendo of panning stabs and a washed out, chugging backbone that doesnt let-up throughout its 7 minute duration.
the flipside offers up something else entirely, a remix for hitherto unknown operator dj ghosthunter, a shady character not quite ready to unmask himself. mlzs remix offers a dank and obliterated house configuration, guided by the spirit of theo parrish and kdj.

the third release on phonica records is a no-nonsense dancefloor burner from matt tolfrey and d. ramirez, with a stunning remix from lauhaus. >bounce to me< is an exquisitely stripped-back jack track, propelled along by clipped vocal samples, deep chord stabs and funked-up percussion - as the title suggests, its all about the bounce. thats really all you need to know: this piece of music has been built for the sole purpose of dancefloor devastation and will do the job every time. matt tolfrey is the boss of leftroom recordings and one of the uks most compelling young dj/producers, with releases on crosstown rebels and viva music among others. d. ramirez is of course the sheffield-based producer behind numerous hit tracks for labels like four:twenty and his own slave recordings. the flipside remix comes from underground hero lauhaus, a dutch producer whos made quite a name for himself with his muscular productions for labels like remote area and intacto. here he toughens and tightens tolfrey and ramirezs original >bounce to me< into a rolling techno groove, adding real drama and forward thrust with crisp hi-hats and stacatto percussion. the soundtrack to late summer has arrived. bounce!
