in all of his years of being a certified veteran in the world of techno - from his beginning days in napoli in the early 90s to his celebrated status around the world today - marco carola never once lost grip on his main priority: letting the music speak for itself. throughout his leagues of vital releases and endless stream of dj dates, his focus always steered clear of sensationalized press angles, or ranking up the charts he chose to instead keep his head down and his passions high. carola retains a rare sense of integrity, despite being an artist whos consistently changed the face of techno. he shrugs it off modestly, claiming only to always try to do something new.

encapsulating carolas approach to techno in both sound and title, groove catcher is the naples producer at his best, with a rolling bassline punctuated by a percussion pattern that teases out the funk of the track in carolas trademark style: pacey and direct, but with enough bounce and fluidity to fully snare the occupants of the dancefloor within its grip and make them do its bidding. fellow album cut, the method, which appears on the vinyl format only, is similarly insistent whilst lighter in tone - if groove catcher is best employed at the peak of a club set, then the method is its daytime terrace equivalent. leading the ep will be the rework of groove catcher by martin buttrich, with the german producer lending the considerable talents that have led to releases on poker flat and cocoon recordings - as well as his recruitment behind the mixing desk for timo maas and loco dice - to a pair of remixes that transform the original into a different beast entirely. remix a mutates groove catcher into something monstrous and intimidating, bringing a different intensity to the track and injecting it with a heightened sense of danger.

rekluse kick off 2011 with a double header from marco bailey & tom hades

new fresh vinyl only release from vidd based in stockholm - related to farden records. subliminal sounds by the italian marco shuttle who delivers an brilliant executed slice of dark basement techno. on the a-side a track that will creates a stir on the floor and that kills it on prime time with its hypnotic female vocal hookline. one of those tracks that stands out and gets people to the dj and ask what that track was that he just played! the b-side is a dark epic track with a phat metallic detroit-ish basslines and a frantic spaced out athmosphere... perfect material for a deep dark basement session. limited pressing of 300 copies.

after his great release on royal oak recently marco bernardi is back on creme with a beautiful grand sweeping house track. >klinsfrar melode< rolls like a wave over the sandy beaches of your mind... or something like that. on the flip dj sprinkles beats the hell out of it with an epic 12 minute old school flavored warrior groove.

dj pro is one of those wicked techno labels from the leading country in funky techno: spain! this is for the pro djs only! 4 techno tracks for the professional to spin at the top of the set and make the dancefloor craaaaazy! a massive various artists pack feat. gayle san, j.leyend, ignition technician, paul boex and marco rane.

marco resmann has done it. the studio computer is purring again like a satisfied kitten and those dark technical storm clouds have passed by. to prove that a streak of technical bad luck which he has just gone through can sometimes enhance creativity he has come up with this little gem of a new single >drop outz<. on a1 we have >mal pas< (transl: difficult road) which is an ode to the suffering he went through with his computer. but dont worry, its just a name, the track itself is as light and sweet as the stuff that we love from marco. b1 is also little beauty, no dark clouds to be found here either, and b2, a cracker called >whats cracking< is the ultimate proof to anyone that the sun always shines at upon you. enjoy and always think happy thoughts friends

nice mark e remix !!

heavy plays by marco carola, carlo lio , reboot , arado , laurent garnier , mendo , hugo , nick & danny chatelain , danny tenaglia !

intense, deep,raw and dirty tracks by marco bernardi. his first release on clone records in a while and what a record! two tracks build around unpolished rhythms and open beginning that dont reveal immediately where its going. quiet unpredictable is the a-side that slowly opens up with a sultry string and then completely bursts open with a shiny melody that is in beautiful contrast with the raw percussion. broken silence is another deep track founded on a basic rhythm and metallic detroit bass line. topped with spoken words (by keith tucker from aux88) and bleepy melodies, underlaid with a deeper sexy bassline. a track rooted in the best traditions of techno... weve played this one over and over! machine music by men!

the incredible andy kohlmann teams up with marco fender to return on lordag records. alison moyet vocals on top (yazoo - dont go)

three guys with a common passion in deep sounds, funky and raw beats meet up with the aim of producing their own and friends stuff. baby move! ep is the first ep of the enfant prodige marco daquino, florence native dreamer who delivers two little gems of disco-house. the main track is a dreamy deep train that will take you over with its gentle strings and wonderful synth, while a voice from a glorious past will funk up the whole thing. on the other side this sound is my sound brings us in a slow-motion deep funk world and will definetely shake your body and make you smile.

roma meets running back. final frontier/pigna/nature bossman, terrific producer, italian true school techno ledge and celebrated pasta boy marco passarani delivers new original material since his brilliant statostasi ep. the first one of a two part 12-inch series (no shit!) is walking in the shoes of the future while wearing the fine cut trousers of the past. here you you get it all, dear earthlings: science-fiction marathon tech-house, male martian mirror balls and sh-303 female robot acid. bassarani in your face! watch out for colliding stars pt. 2. limited to 500 copies in a retro-futuristic telescopic picture sleeve with even enough room to slip in the second platter (coming sooner or later to a theatre near you)!

marco bernardi marks his second outing on the dirty planet imprint with a 4 track ep bursting with emotion and originality. >i feel the lies< has a more laid back approach with deep and trippy grooves and evolving acidy stabs which are complimented with the unassuming and neatly placed vocal of detroit legend and aux88 founder keith tucker, making it one of those truly >special< tracks. second track >giro< (exium remix) is directed more towards the harder techno fans keeping the arrangement simple and the kick big and bold, this excellent remix has seen early support from surgeon with him choosing to feature it on the recently released fabric53 mix cd. flipping the record over sees two tracks exploring different sounds and moods. >msry< builds pace surrounded by an array of atmosphere, hissing percussion and lush detroit sounding synths where as killer track >giro< is a raw, off beat, electro monster laced with acid sequences and dirty bass.

hot on the heels of our frantic summer release schedule and by way of (prematurely) welcoming the fall/winter season, we have prepared a little collection of our own. featuring established culprits from the label roster as well as exciting new additions and alliances we proudly present another defining moment in our auditory evolution: >wake me up at 16:05< is a snapshot, a landmark and a sure sign of bigger, harder, faster (maybe not that much) things to come from us. enjoy!

the original track, which has some 80ies influences together with 2 more techno-orientated remixes of top-notch artists christian smith and angstrom & aalberg make this release a must-have!

for this 10th wph release we looked towards belgiums finest raoul lambert aka raoul belmans aka one half of swirl people to follow up on his splendid wph blue b-side track 3 seconds released late 2009. raoul quickly sent us cinnamon dreams, the result of a long valencia-session with friend and fellow producer nacho marco, during which they apparently ate the whole spanish supply of belgian speculoospasta, a specialty that cannot be translated in english, but it contains cinnamon, hence the name of the track and the ep

after his 1st output >mach 4< with orpheo last year, young marco now comes out with his debut solo release. this release features two aquatic themed disco jams. side a is a fast-paced underwater race sounding like an orca chasing a school of fish. the b-side keeps it smooth with a beachy mediterranean love song. another special release from hand of god. limited edition of 300 copies

mb electronics marco bailey & tom hades have had many years of success, here with 2 dancefloor bombs for excentric.

taking the freaky chicago sound down a couple of notches to the deeper realms of jazzy house. heavenly vocals, light broken beats, rolling live bass and touching rhodes progressions. the flip dives deeper into an instrumental version of the latter and is none the less satisfying.

ltd 2010 repress !!! marco carolas string of recent releases on plus8 and his own 2m imprint are now effortlessly hurtling forward under the weight of their own momentum and the bloody cash ep shows no sign of relenting. in fact if its possible, this collection of four new combustible tunes adds another dimension to his already substantial repertoire. on the title track bloody cash, carola immediately shows his intent, letting fly with a spiraling tribal groove full of bright, crisp percussive elements that stretch skywards towards the sun. the tough, earthy beats keep everything rooted to the ground as he taps into some age-old hedonistic urge, creating a universal groove that rolls out across the oceans before breaking on the shores of each continent with an all encompassing call to dance. the main body of the track incorporates a straight synth stab doused in reverb that sets the scene for the finely crafted main keyboard riff, which is an accomplishment in itself. alternating between two complimentary parts, it elevates the backing track to another level. perfectly balanced and enhanced for maximum danceability, its without doubt one of carolas finest works to date

limited one sided red coloured vinyl.... with huge piano - slammer
