hailing from leipzig in germany is an artist whos music has been pricking up many ears across the global underground over the last few years. its hard to put a finger on what it is about kassem mosses productions that make repeated listening a must, but the intricacy, fresh arrangements and musical depth definitely play a part in attracting labels such as the highly respected techno imprint workshop, the legendary soma records and now nonplus are honoured to present his latest 12 inch. a) kassem mosse – >we speak to those< first up on the a-side we have >we speak to those< a 4/4 track of the highest quality that keeps you guessing from start to finish. the rugged and raw kick and bassline immediately set the foundations for the incoming awkward chord stabs whilst reversed beats lazily slur in and out over the main groove giving the track the unnerving feeling that its almost changing tempo. random sound effects and a non conforming arrangement make this track about as predictable as the english summer. one listen to this and youll immediately understand why this artist is getting love from some of the scenes biggest players at the moment. aa) kassem mosse – >hi res< phased drum machine breakbeat patterns and stutered percussion redolent of the early detroit techno uprising give this track an outstanding quality of being able to conjure up the same feelings of hope and optimism for electronic music that the aforementioned era managed to. thought provoking chord progressions take your mind on an excursion to the future and leave you gagging for an extended trip. think skyways, flying cars and towering metal buildings footed with dark abysmal underworlds and youll get the drift. they don t come much deeper than this one

nice price deal !!! andnotors fourth vinyl release sees rubadubs very own line idle laying down a hefty techno workout, which combines analogue crispness with distorted synths and a brooding vocal for maximum dancefloor devastation. mixing land cruising-era melodic bounce with a dirty electronic throb, tense slowly builds to a crescendo as the vocals rise up through the mix until the hook kicks in and it all gets messy. on the flipside, nu42Æs acid remix does exactly what it says on the tin, arpeggiating the synths, adding a healthy dose of squelch and fracturing the vocals to make a much more grinding long-player. whilst the original is a peak-time techno beast, the flip is pure warehouse material, nine-minutes of slowly-evolving drops and breakdowns designed for an early hours of the morning after-party. tense is andnotors fourth vinyl, after limited-edition releases from cledus snow, tj kong and aleksandr jurczyk, and each copy comes individually hand-stencilled. previous releases have gained them a substantial following from djs like tom middleton, kenny larkin, mark bell (lfo), mark moore (s express) and erwin van moll.

the second and final part to mossas massive album is festine pt.2. the first part was crafted for a more big room, late night feel and for the second slab of wax were going more for the bouncier out-door, summer fun time feel. there were so many moods on this full-length that we were able to craft specific types of eps. to some this may be more of the sound they come to expect to hear from mossa but we know him best, he has flavors upon flavors, which is very obvious on this ep. hes a hard artist to stereotype, exactly why we had to have him on thema. so for this excursion we have a tango-esque dance floor prime time buner-buleria, that will make you slam tequilas like the true lushes we are. on the flip side we have pezzner of freerange and dave aju of circus company delivering some sultry, tangy, funk for the body

yet another unmissable, under the counter trio of cuts, lovingly crafted from the most unusual of sample sources, combined with squeeky clean production values that make this a dancefloor dead cert. moonshine bears more than a passing resemblance to carl craigs monumental -throw- and ploughs an equally devastating groove, utilizing, of all things a chunk of glitter bands -makes you blind- on the flip the off-kilter but irresistble -revenge of the rock-o-mites- is a re-imagining of the lead track from the incredible rock city band’s impossibly rare electro-funk ep from 83 & sounds like allan parsons remixed by dexter. finally -why d you run away- skillfully reinterprets elements of flash & the pans -ayla- and is more than likely to be blasting out of many an adriactic boat party this summer massive
