taking a look back on the life of nima gorji, one must quote that this man truly is an international freak in music! so who else should be more predestined for releasing on international freakshow than him?! the two tracks nima gorji presents to us on this record define themselves as a crispy, warm and trippy kind of no-shit-techhouse with a twist! sometimes, the title-track is building up its hypnotizing power carefully, bringing the dancers tension to the maximum level! after summer on the flipside shows a proper, strongly & well structured techhouse-beat combined with subtle, deep and warm synth sounds and its bassline is playing games with the spooky vocal samples and effects nima gorji uses as perfect as it gets throughout the whole tune

der zweite part des jonzon comebacks in 2010 und dafür einfach hier nicht mehr und nicht weniger als die blanke, ungenierte dokumentation des einschlägigen berlin techno, wie man ihn bereits mitte der 90-er jahre nicht besser hätte erhalten können. die tracks wie >make up< und >see the light< erreichen dabei auf diesem streng auf 300 copies limitierten vinyl mühelos den reifegrad eines abgeklärten alterswerks, in dem die kühle technoide klangarchitektur mit vielen impressionistischen soundskizzen angereichert wird und die am ende dennoch aus dem off jede menge schwingungen und techno-funk auf den boden bringt, der anschaulich, als ganz grosser wurf aus dem nowhere auf einmal wieder ganz dicke prognosen für die zukunft von jonzon, und nicht nur diesem, verspricht. man darf hier jetzt schon gespannt sein, wie die jonzon-story weitergeht. the only way is up!

massive new 2 from the man

the latest ep to come from the detroit grand pubahs label detelefunk is dj and producer k alexi shelby with >i can go<. kaay is one of chicagos true heroes and cited by many as a pioneer of the citys sound. this is his unique smooth blend of techno and house, as kaay calls >tecsoul< (which is also the the name of his own label) that attracted the eye of the pubahs with a track titled >i can go< featuring kaays own vocals, and the heavy female breathing.

james braun is one of the new exciting producers out of denmark, with his strong productions he have earned great respect amongst djs like jesse rose and claude vonstroke. this is the second release from the danish producer on tartelet. the original is, like usually, a combination between solid house, great producing skills and james’ urge for experimenting with genre and sounds. with detroit-ish string theme and bass driven groove the original is fun, intriguing yet powerful. on the b-side tartelet are proud to present a remix by claude vonstroke, who wanted to do it after heavy support of brauns earlier material. the remix features many of the original elements but in updated and very danceable version. label-man tomas barfod shows us his darker sides on his remix. barfod takes symphonia late-night with string pad, dirty drums, spacy synths and deep-bass.

star is reel peoples latest smile maker and features the beautiful vocals & lyrics of one of the worlds finest soul voices, tony momrelle. tony has been a man very much in demand over the last decade having toured with legends such as sade, whitney houston, take that & of course being the front man for the institution that is incognito.

wayne gardiner the man responsible for the strictly rhythm classic logic >the warning< gets a release on soulfuric deep with remixes from brian tappert, christian hornbostel, tony v and ryan mishkin.

more quality house goodness from the guest house crew. this ep features the amenti main man olivier desmet with cohort oriental funk stew for a three track release of typically bummping and jacking grooves. solid dancefloor material here, with took my love working a tight groove over some dubbed out samples and frolicking bassline, with a cool oldschool vocal sample making an appearance here. flip for the bottom heavy pressure and jazzy swing of five plus while in the pocket works some nice key stabs for a deep late night groover. excellent dancefloor material from some of the top names in the underground scene

one of bella unions most successful and celebrated acts - midlake - make their long awaited return with the courage of others, their extraordinary third album.

this new ep retraces ceephaxs history and its very own personal and genious way to appropriate a musical style with always such generosity. from the dubstep of souley man, the sunset dancefloor hit bacardi breezer, the drum n bass track dona hue, the break bit track turrican 2 to ticker train, an acid bomb that defies anybody to not let themselves get carried away by these wild bpm.

after their great debut >motzbaz / indeed< on afao recordings and the following 12inches >hello kool nice< and <langenthal ep< on quintessentials recordings, which found its way into the bags and charts of djs like quarion, laurent garnier, jimpster and many more, jagged strikes back with a 12 on bonzzaj recordings. this single also contains a hot remix by the dutch multi-talented man aardvarck, one half of the rednose district. jaggeds productions are restrained and minimal in the right way - they doesnt let things get overloaded. they focuses mainly on straight beats and functional house music but always with the right ingredient of soul and rawness. the title track ten to twelve is a heavy cut with a lot of disco influences, funky basslines, cool house-grooves and surprising changes all over the track. the remix of ten to twelve comes from aardvarck, who releases on rushhour, kindred spirits and delsin. he transformed the original in an broken beat stomper, which sounds like it emerged straight out of londons co-op. the b-side contains chicago, a deep house number with forward going percussions, warm strings, oldscool-house-vocals and a slight acid flavour and last but not least the track an orange drippin, which takes you with its deep synth, percussions, basslines, bells and things in the deeper shades of…jagged nation. hot shit gesundheit

on his new album, pantha du prince, who lives in berlin and paris, claims: music slumbers in all matter, any sound, even silence, is already music. the mission, then, must be to render audible what is unheard and unheard of: black noise, a frequency that is inaudible to man. black noise often presages natural disasters, earthquakes or floods, only some animals perceive this calm before the storm. black noise is something archaic and earthy. the music on black noise balances precariously on the slippery threshold between art and nature, between techno and folklore, which lends it a certain spectral and intangible aspect. black noise also features a couple of special guests - noah lennox of animal collective sings on >stick to my side< and tyler pope of !!! and lcd soundsystem plays bass on >the splendour<.

hot from his immensely popular jungle laps track on john digweeds bedrock 11 lp, marco bailey is about to cause a major commotion with this stunning new 4-track ep. watch out! as the man says... its a burning, all consuming drive that can only be calmed down by getting into the music.

roberto bardini is a deep techno producer from turin (ita). he is amongst the few enlightened producer/djs who declared independence from the current minimal-techno mainstream. his musical approach is by all means deep, and through this he casts his vision of a more mature and alternative dancefloor.

the ep features the first official release of the title track (now properly mixed and mastered, with a shouted hook from izza kizza) as well as a hyperactive juke remix of crookers anthem knobbers by dj gant man, and two incredible takes on the follow-up cudi collab embrace the martian courtesy of uk beat maestro seiji.

nice price deal !!! official release !
mind-blowing singles, eps, remixes (for the likes of simian mobile disco, little boots, royksopp, lykke li, au revoir simone…), a quickly-growing label (fondation records), and the night is his in most of the worlds major cities: danton eeprom had it all, to the exception of a long-playing record. after making a name for himself with hits like confessions of an english opium-eater, grindhouse or face control, it was time to go off the beaten path and show the way once again. would he go for a fairly logical sweat-ridden dancefloor riot? not precisely. not only. danton would make a revolution of his own, in dandy mode.
three words that will soon be on everyones lips: yes is more. in a cloud of smoke, over a tight booty beat and keys delving deep into thirty years of electronic music, the french londoner sings for good and is all axes out on >thanks for nothing<, making things clear from the very start.

following on from massive releases like half man half trout (taz buckfaster) and freeze step (south africas playdoe), rwina welcomes phillys illest, starkey, back to the fold.

nope, this man is not a legend, yet! however he is in fact legendary already for his notorious live sets as well as a wide range of groundbreaking styles and sound he designed apart of the consensus way in the last 15 years.with his now presented astrodymics part1, richard bartz deals similar to the subway concept again with his past and transfers these late nineties space-disco drafts into the wonderful here and now. he delivers vivid funk-supercharged house which is at the same light as a feather and for sure a very sudatory matter.
space-disco rules!

ideen zwischen bollywood und beethoven: zweites album der us-indie-rocker.einige bands bleiben immer bei ihrem alten strickmuster, andere ver?ndern sich von album zu album radikal. vampire weekend haben bei ihrem zweiten album weder das eine noch das andere getan. oder vielleicht beides: >wir klingen mehr wie vampire weekend als auf der ersten platte< meint denn auch schlagzeuger christopher tomson. dabei sprudelt >contra< ?ber an frischen ideen, es pr?sentiert sich dem h«rer kurz und straff durchkomponiert (zehn titel in 39 minuten), die songs setzen sich fast unmerklich mit so schwierigen themen wie verlust, angst und dem tod auseinander. ein gewagtes, ein gelungenes unterfangen. die aufnahmen begannen im januar 2009 in new york, nur zwei wochen nachdem die jungs von ihrer 18-monatigen welttournee zur?ckkamen.
auf >contra< haben verschiedene musikalische stile, kunstformen und philosophien ihren einfluss genommen: third wave ska, the hallelujah chicken run band, brasilianischer baile-funk, kongolesische daumenklaviere, repo man, reggaeton, bollywood, philip roth, beethoven, dancehall und die beastie boys wurden dezent und kultiviert verarbeitet.

vinyl only release! guess who is behind it?! for sure you have heard some of his production last year. the man was one of the hit maker of 2009. the a side of this ep is seriously excpected since a while now… many top djs around the globe are playing it from little louie vega to radio slave. its now your time to get it!

our man ryo murakami sends over the next transmission in his exciting and growing catalogue of productions. always inspired by the raw and soulful sound of chicago and new york, this next ep puts forward his vision and continuation of this timeless house feeling. lead track >just for this< is a wonderful celebration of heavy slow motion house. classic house references and even a few classic samples meet in a dirty, deep ride into the tweaked out and extended vibes of the late night people. a journey through the city of house, a perfect refl ection of the times, bringing warmth and light in a once colder world. graeme clark aka the revenge, a fi gure who has enjoyed much success with his deviant disco sound, steps up for remix duties - and a fi ne job he does too! building his mix from the bare bones, adding a little more pace and forward momentum, his version is also tightly bound within the roots of emotional, deep vibes house. this is an outstanding remix - functional, clear and fully devoted to the classic sound. on the b side a mysterious original, >untitled<, sees ryo pushing things a little further still. the energy levels climb higher and higher as this modern hypno-houser phases and pulses upwards over nearly 8 minutes of jacking, sample laden freshness. we love to visit ryos house, where everybodys welcome and theres smiles all round

here comes a highgrade split ep. marcus homm and ludwig coenen share the honours on one record, and instead of competing for the glory, both producers compliment each other perfectly. markus homm, the global player, starts off as assured as ever with another great track. golden glow rolls towards a dramatic stage for hysteria. homm takes the listener in with a heavy and richly sweet narrative style. matches brings even more excitement, pushing forward with brilliantly entangled sounds that hit you more in the hips than the stomach, telling a tale of promise in the early morning hours. ludwig coenen, the man from infamous frankfurt, brings dancing into the realms of the zoo! with its not a zoo he manages to combine various sounds into a funky and functional harmony. the 2nd track mind your head breaks the standard mould and uses a broad sound palette to construct a new and unique field of maximum funk.

da kommt sie endlich die nummer 1 des sagenumwobenen münchner techno clubs, der neben seiner booking agentur und einem netlabel nun auch zum vinyllabel wächst. in diesem sinne ist klar, hier weiß man, wovon man spricht, straighter schnörkelloser techno von den gebrüdern zenker, die ihrer jugend wegen gewissermaßen eine neue post-minimale generation für münchen verkörpern und für ein besseres morgen des freistaates stehen. aber techno wurde ja gerade im harry klein seit jeher hochgehalten und über alle krisen hinweg begleitet und gepflegt. umso wichtiger, dass die residents des clubs nun auch aktiv mit künstlerischen beiträgen die eigene szene mit gestalten.
