duffy is possibly the most exciting prospect for 2008. her ascent from the llyn peninsula to 2008s pole position continues as the 23 year old releases her debut album rockferry. a masterclass in mature, resonant pop, the album includes the singles mercy and rockferry. her soulful voice has already beguiled many of the nations musical tastemakers and news of its beauty and of the strength of her songs is spreading by word of mouth now, as the comparisons fly (dusty springfield has emerged as the favourite), its time to discover her for yourself. duffy was born and spent her childhood years in the north wales coastal community of nefyn, a place too remote to be driven by style wars or opposing music factions. the upbringing she describes is one in which everyone had to rub along together, making do and mending, accepting each other and their tastes without prejudice.

d passion had some guests over at his studio, and heres the result! the collabs, a special release featuring 4 collaborations of d passion with artists from all around the scene. the first one might be a combination of 2 of the youngest, yet most thriving forces in the harder dance, take the risk is d passion and italian mad dog kicking it with bassdrums, tight melody and sharp vocals. together with promo, d passion sat down and created the last track of the night, a track with a large intensity grade shows their view on how the last 5 minutes of an event could and should sound like. the b-side might be a familiar one to many. last year, d passion and unexist provoked each other to non stop hardcore antics, and the two tracks which resulted from this session might be some of the hardest out there! bring the noise and what the hell are the best examples of how intense the combination of the unexist style and d passions production skills can be.

>beaten< is the first track to be released from random factor’s new album and comes with excellent art of tones remixes.carl a finlow again shows his history and pedigree as well as his refusal to jump on bandwagons and trends by producing timeless electronic music inspired more by kraftwerk, yello, stockhausen, tomita, prince, sakamoto, brian eno and the white noise than by what’s playing this summer at dc10. ralph lawson used >beaten< as the last track on his recent 2020vision compilation. this jerky sporadic groove gives a nod to the forefathers while holding down a beat anyone would be proud of. the single comes complete with remixes from art of tones, fresh after last year’s huge >praise<. this mystery outfit has now signed to 2020vision and this is the first of many bombs from them. art of tones take the track directly to the dancefloor and produce two versions that would slay berlin’s panorama bar at 9 on a sunday morning.

nice price deal !!! it doesnt happen many times anymore, that a dj play a song and you run to the dj booth and ask: what is this? the answer is: its mike monday - i dream of ducks. what we can say is - this tune is a 100% floor burner...love it or leave it!

how many people of the same generation the producer frederik belongs to, did not spend part of their life playing the videogame which inspired the production of this new single? it sounds like a very original track containing an highly explosive idea in it!!

taken from the upcoming mix cd!! already big with: stephan bodzin & dubfire oliver huntemann has been doing his thing for quite a while, under various guises, as dj and producer. since 1995 he has been running the confused rec. label (plus sub-labels). >play! 01 live - sao paolo/brazil< in 2007 was the predecessor of his current mix album >play! 02 live - rex club/paris<. especially for this event oliver has produced a new single: >play! 02 ep - paris/la boum<. it seems that these two tracks are able to be the next big thing. already played by big names such as dubfire, stephan bodzin and many others!

phonogenics >postcard< is slow burner, building and rising to a eventual climax of melancholic underwater deepness. this song will no doubt be played by those in the later time slots and anyone who wants to add a little journey to their mixes. our main man dex aka dave barker is back with another slice of some quality melodic quirky goodness. >yikes!< has a very chopped up funk/soul feel mixed with solid house beats. studio trickery and a hidden japanese opera helps the track evolve from its soulful beginning to another world entirely. finally, we are very pleased to bring you the first of many musical efforts from amantu wilde. not much is known about amantu as he is a bit of a recluse and does not offer up much information about himself. >g-g-got my eyes on you< is a very retro sounding track reminiscent of some classic new wave jams. pseudo industrial percussion and excellent filter work make this track something to remember. something strange for sure but we think people will like the break from the mod rn sounds

born and raised in nantes, france, the parisian r-play began his career in 2000 with the d-clik crew. parties and events organizer, dj and producer, follower of a minimal techno, r-play uses to share frenzied groovy drums and hypnotic or freaky sounds. his sets wander between many different dance floor styles. in 2003 he founded a first label hologram and then launched triumbeats in 2004 for his own releases with noaria, and produces many tracks in such different style like minimal techno, hard techno, ambient or world music. his productions are play listed and mixed by most of the greatest international artists.

truffle music returns with andrew allsgood at the helm again. the up and coming producer and longtime toronto dj shows his promise once again with this slow grooving funk masterpiece that stretches over 7 minutes. the song travels through many sections and passes, carried the entire time by a driving dub bassline and vocal. for the lovers of deep, dubby and funky house and disco. nycs drrtyhaze (tirk, gomma) are commissioned on the remix and deliver the goods with an up tempo hypnotic stormer that sizzles with its surreal energy and simplicity. drrtyhaze use few elements from the original other than the vocal, taking it into deeper territory with a faster tempo and groove and much more electronic feel to the originals organic vibe.

charles websters furry phreaks hook up with vocalist terra diva on a track signed by defected last year. the delay in release is due to the frankly staggering scope of remixes commissioned - there are too many to describe them all although highlights include the sublime version remix, the three pastaboys efforts and the quirky atjazz dub. the superb vocal takes the lead on most of the mixes and there really is something here to cater for all tastes.

loved by alex from tokyo, alex attias, ame, dixon, marcus worgull, peter kruder, roland appel, tony lionni and many more.. fabrice lig, the prince of everything electronic, is back after his very acclaimed x-slaves. he delivers the goods once again, starting off here with chapter one in a purple raw trilogy. first up is the track, based around a jerky syncopated rhythm and a very dry kick, which remains light all the way. as usual, lig’s arrangements evolve progressively before they wipe us away with their screeching pads and synthetic melodies. a great mixture of minimal techno and detroit nostalgia. no doubt, the more efficient track produced by fabrice lig and hammered by dixon, ame, alex attias, quarion… much more aggressive, bump bump is built around fat analogue sounds, or acid noises if you prefer which seem to emulate screaming animals. one is easily carried away by an animalistic groove that keeps on building from the beginning till the end. it all ends with the very funky the riff pourpre, a perfect crossover between metro area and parliament. the retro sounds sit nicely on a big fat beat, the kind which lig excels in.

supported by agoria, deetron, funk d void, martin landsky, joris voorn, gregor tresher, karotte and many many more.. after several cooperations with his mates h.o.s.h. and stimmig, and a lot of own releases on other labels, this is the first all-own ep of solomun on diynamic! you maybe wont believe it - but it s like that! and because home is the sweetest place on earth, we invite the guests we love and like in this case, we are fans of ourselfs, jamie odell, better known as jimpster or audiomontage, who made a lot of deeptechhouse hearts happy with his productions an his own label freerange during the last years

krischmann & klingenberg have already become remarkable in several times. in cause of their individual sound. with releases on skull tunes, compressed or on frank kvittas label unknown power, they have pointed what they are able to do. whether on the home dance floors or in the century circus. the boys have simply found the right mixture of straight- and a little funky inclined techno. flotek & mario kinle come directly from vienna to your home. their tracks circulate in many different forums and bump almost only into positive resonance. it is the time to get both on vinyl. sound, uncompromisingly up to the last blow.

excellent electro trax for bunker/electro & wave fans part 2.. including sneak thief, polygamy boys, divider, zhark and many more..

tom stephans chumbomundo label is proud to announce a new series of eps highlighting hot new artists in scene: headztom really felt that he needed to give new artist a break on his label, as he receives so many cool tracks, whilst playing abroad. ep 1 has a true international feel with artists from the usa, italy, uk and the netherlands, covering tribal, twisted, prog and electro grooves.

the term >ballad< is written similarly in many languages of the western hemisphere. it is a antique word. you can find its etymological origin in the latin verb >ballare< - which means >to dance< - and the greek verb >ballein< - wich means >to move<. a ballad is always a story told through music. in recent times the term >ballad< is often associated with greasy / absurd pop music. what a shame! ballad inc. releases tracks that earn the label >ballad<. on our first release >exile< you can listen to the epic story >high hopes of salvation< by quietpoint and to two short stories by xdb. >anilem< and >jupit< got everything a ballad needs. of course you can dance to it. of course you can move your body. but this should not be the main issue! there is so much more in modern instrumental music. who needs words to tell a story?

supported by ben sims, dave clarke, steve rachmad, bart skills, dj 3000, cari lekebusch and many more.. the time is now, a new token, a new wave of mayhem for dancefloors worldwide. for 6 we have the first belgian artist on token. its been a while since we saw a release by dimitri andreas and since he released his widely well received panther ep on the highly acclaimed music man label in 2003, the mass was hungry for a new release. london based producer and blueprint legend james ruskin takes care of another interpretation for the flip side. with his recent album >the dash< on tresor, he continues his legacy. here, mr ruskin keeps the groove of the original track and gives it a bit more intimacy and funk
