subwave returns to metalheadz for a musical outing that will certainly have a few scratching there heads in wonderment, this is not the usual output we hear from headz but it sits just perfectly with releases like commix remix album >recall to mind<. >naked lunch< takes us on a journey into deep house electronics, lush strings and slick programming all the way this is fit for any dance-floor. on the flip >raindance< takes us into dubstep territory – if you are a fan of nonplus and disfigured dubz then this is most certainly for you, its warm, moody (in a good way) and beautifully crafted, there is even a hint of old school detroit in this one ...
the whole package is and is of the highest quality, we expect big support from the deephouse, techno and forward thinking dubstep djs for this, long may subwave continue this journey into music from future!

if the eyes would be the mirror of the soul we could easily know others. but that may be not true so this is the aim of giorgio gigli and obtanes >the incredible tale of secret journey through your eyes<: penetrate your eyes and reach your soul and subconsce until we know your truth. psychoanalytic claims this time for zooloft, opening with an upbuilding, dramatic techno anthem, telling us of a true love on the hills. on the other side, geophones master mike parker delivers a pulsating and acidic techno driver where heart impulses are generated by a disturbed soul, creating spasms and panic feelings. the ep get closed by a strongly romantic drone track that tells us love is still the only way-out.

it really is an unbelievable honour for us that we may release this fantastic track by von spar, a track that might as well be found on their outstanding album >foreigner< from 2010. maybe it is because we are such a big label and this crude, elegiac, and emotionally mighty sound of these guys fits just perfect for us. and whoever would like get out of this tunnel of infinite deepness should rely on the remix ada comes up with. trust is good-but no doubt, control is better.

mo 2 meaux 2 rejoins the 2 transcontinental cities, detroit/motor city with meaux, france. mo and meaux may have similar sounding names, but musically speaking, the deep, plush grooves being created are unmistakably unique.

detroit lands in (o meets - come preferisci) rome! although being a canadian, greg gow is a one of those few artists who can proudly be considered part of the d25, the elite of classic detroit sound. after having produced on labels such as the legendary transmat, run by derrick may, greg has finally joined the 7 oz records family with the santa clara ep.two tracks (santa clara and resurrection) with a resolute traditional detroit flavour, where the peculiar strings and soulful groove are reshaped with a contemporary and powerful rhythmic section.

together with matthias tanzmann and the >freude am tanzen< crew, daniel stefanik belongs to the most reliable initiators of electronic dance music in east germany. the fact that the readers of groove magazine have voted daniel one of the best newcomers in 2010 n&#771,,,,,, despite his more than 75 releases on mobile&#768,,,,,,e, statik entertainment, moon harbour or dessous n&#771,,,,,, may be due to his fantastic remix of the ubertrack >no worries<, that has been played, together with butch s original version, on literally every deck between ibiza, frankfurt and london in the past months.

>corky< is the third ep from brand brauer frick on tartelet records and features a remix from tartelets own james braun. music has always been the defining core of tartelet records. this may seem like an obvious statement, but that was the very reason why it hit us like a ton of bricks when we receivedthe first demo from paul frick and his new band around two years ago you might say that the brandt brauer frick sound touched on a vibration that had been lurking in our musical subconscious. we ll resist the temptation to wax lengthy or lyrical about >corky< instead, we suggest you have a listen and let yourself be seduced by its panoramic echoes and pumping bass drum. hop aboard an odyssey that leads brandt brauer frick through the technoid city of detroit. its a fine ride indeed.

this is the third single taken from boohgaloo zoos devastatingly good self-titled debut album. >i got< is a relentless disco groover while >come to this< is a slow-mo exotica house bomb (whatever that may mean) with some hints of exotica. two fat and funky joints. this time, the remixes are courtesy of mugwump and aardvark. mugwump takes the original and turns it into an electrifying discoid tour de force. aardvark does his thing, which lately means taking a song, and giving it an electronic shock treatment. those who like forward thinking electronic music will go bananas for this one. post >nameyourfavourite<?

thomas fehlmann is integral to kompakt and the labels history. his solo releases and collaborative work with alex patterson as the orb have been some of the kompakts most revered and cherished tunes. following the success of his 2010 full length gute luft (a collection of re-edited versions from his score to the hit documentary 24hr berlin), we start 2011 off with titan one / dfm. on october 16, 2010 thomas fehlmann performed in montreal, canada at the historic molson coors brewery building together with members of the montreal symphony orchestra (osm). together they sought to recreate a version of gustav mahlers classic symphony no. 1 (titan). kompakt is proud to now offer a new recording inspired by that epic concert of symphonic and electronic with a new recording inspired from that performance – renamed as titan one. the hum of cellos and strings conjoin fehlmanns electronics – held together by the sublime, unobtrusive thump of a bass drum. titan one flows with a beauty and edacity that is rarely heard in both classical and electronic music form. the b-side features a new recording inspired from the second piece of the performance - a new version of thomas fehlmanns du fehlst mir from his 2006 kompakt full length visions of blah. reanimated as dfm, the piece again conjoins the different musical worlds in a way we have never heard to such a high standard. a much more upbeat affair than to titan one (of course) bass and keyboards mingle with the symphony the playfulness of the original song rolls throughout dfm. whether as palais schaumberg, the orb, or 3mb (to name only a few alias). fehlmann may have 3 decades of professional recordings under his belt but he continues to prove to the world as being one of the most fascinating and creatively open musicians in his field. this release clearly proves his story is far from over.

!!vinyl only , ltd repress!!! yo hermeneutics! acid pauli (console, notwist, electronist) knows where the shoe pinches: we all need more soul. marvin is like these rare double groove vinyls, where two songs running parallel, (you may think oops the needle is hopping) well, in the middle of the tune the striation crosses, and then it ooze out soul and the sun rise

i dont think i know, or heard of, anyone who share the same obsession in searching obscure disco records like kool dj dust (real name daniel savio). call him at any given time and he is in some flee market or second hand shop on the look-out for records. he even got an apartment just for his collection.
we talked about the idea of re-releasing >un-googable< music, old stuff that is not only very hard to find, but also so good that re-issueing it is an actual cultural necessity. dust tossed around with a few ideas and finally these three songs made the cut. we are very happy with them!
we hope you are too. we are also happy that we have the support on this release from so many djs. some of them being rune lindbaek, in flagranti, tim sweeney, horse meat disco, 6th borough project, parlour, dj rocca, bonar bradberry, parlour, hugo capablanca, cousin cole et al.

this is the ultimate new bomb by lars wickinger! may the force be with you!

roberto bosco is a young italian producer with a short but highly impressive discography, citing labels such as samuel l. sessions klap klap, orlando voorns night vision and len fakis figure. lately, he has released on be as one, an israeli imprint thats attracted the tastes of loco dice, gui boratto, kate simko, agoria and gummihz. claudio mate has an unique kind of sound: there is something like classic atmospheres expressed into new spine-tingle grooves, a deep-cosmic-solid journey or more simply just the trip of his life story. claudio mate got the respect of such names like the godfather of techno music juan atkins (for him claudio remixed >game one< previously licensed on the legendary metroplex), orlando voorn, francois k, derrick may and manuel gottsching. the swedish techno heads like adam beyer, samuel l session, joel mull always supported him since the first projects. mate & bosco together are abstract souls, a new project set up to develop their deepest sound. >abstract souls ep< is their first release under their new moniker and contains 4 deep techno tracks, solid techno grooves infused with dark dubby atmospherics and cosmic influenced rhythms.

support from oxia, rodriguez jr, radioslave, josh wink, dj koze, laurent garnier, seth troxler, joris vorn, jennifer cardini, dixon, claude vonstroke... two friends who have known each other for many years, who have often shared the same stage and recently enlightened our summer workshops at la carrière, who trade deeply-felt lyrics and singing for singular and refined productions and who delivered infinés finest electronic rhymes. after >silently<, clara called mimu again for >deer & fox<, the vocal pop wonder of >polyamour<. this fall infiné has invited forward-thinking remixers to work on clara s stems for four new opportunities to play the track. deep and introspective, the troublemakers of dop have kept the classy original textures, slowed down cleverly the bpm to carrying mimus voice into a bubble of euphoric bleeps. pampered by derrick may, juan atkins or kevin saunderson, stacey pullen offers the clubbers a one-way ticket into his time machine. right back at the heydays of the detroit second generation. terribly old school and consequently incredibly efficient on the floors. widely praised for their recent intrusions on the very respected karaoke kalk label, tolouse low trax on top having a profound liking puns, have turned >deer & fox< into a dizzying after party chorus, adding their own dark and hypnotic sound pallet. offered as digital extension but no less essential to the package, austrian producer ritornell aka richard eigner brings celestial violins and heavenly piano for a shining and delicate rework, which could almost let you forget the original.

the ep includes the tracks -the pursuit- (vocal + instrumental edit) which is an energetic climax dancefloor filler! everywhere! regardless how small and dirty your place may be – the good vibe hip swinging track “monsta boosta” will boost the crowd.

the fourth release in the series of techno twelves on simian mobile discos new imprint delicacies. jas shaw and james ford have been accompanying these 12 inches by curating their delicatessen parties around the uk.
you may have already noticed that each title bears the name of a bizarre and exotic delicacy discovered by james and jas whilst touring around the world. amalgamating hard edged analogue beat structures as well as some of the more mellow, melodic aspects of techno, delicacies reiterates the sheer excellent musical eccentricity that simian mobile disco continue to create. the delicacies series are unique offerings from one of the most exciting acts in electronic music.

born in romania in 1981, mihai popoviciu is one of the most talked about newcomers in the house and techno scene. but to call him a newcomer is a misnomer. mihai has been releasing quality music for years, on labels such as gigolo, level non zero, brise, diynamic and, of course, highgrade. since 2007 he has sworn allegiance to the highgrade flag, either alone or with production partner markus homm. he always has the ability to surprise with his music tracks produced straight to the point with no unnecessary fluff – just the uninhibited thrill and euphoria of dancing seems to empower his work. after a busy summer season playing in the clubs of europe, he is now back to work in the studio. and so comes >trapped in brakets< with three brilliant club tracks of outstanding quality, custom made for the dance floor. if you dont believe us youll have to hear them for yourself. turn up the volume and close your eyes! for those who still want more, mihai popoviciu will be releasing his debut album in may 2011 on highgrade records. time to get excited and warm up the legs for maximum dance floor effect!

incl rmxs by sascha dive & s catt!! it seems almost ridiculous to refer to zoe xenia as a label regular, when we are only on release number 12. maybe? but zoe is without a doubt, one of the our key artists. zoe first featured on bass culture with her >let the music play< ep in december last year, and whilst it may have been only our 4th release, it was somewhat of a definitive one..

repress !!! the young chilean- finnish talent with warm electro cuts with chicago & detroit flavours !!! enjoy this trip!! nr.1 in sven väths dj chart (may / june 2005)

this may seem like an unusual signing for claremont 56, but this is about as balearic as it gets. mudd builds up from the drums into the live bass ...

new boy chicago damn brings his debut release via mark es merc stable. he may be the new boy on merc but the quality is not compromised here at all, with 2 slammin peak time chuggers these deep house techno belters have been part of mark es sets for the last month. deep jungle bongo chants crossed with looped up ethnic weirdness. essential! ! you dont need us to tell this is the real deal folks ! get with it...

may this record be understood as a diabolic statement coming along with the winter season or even as an affront?
hometrainers affinity of doomed dispositions (possibly seen as humor) might be known to a few by tracks from the early 2k. now he turns the table and shouts out: >get up to nowhere.< sounds like an offense he made. acid pauli did like this right in time to produce another track that points it metaphorically out.

after the success of the >nathaniel x project ep< in may, the parisian label finally comes back with another killer ep! from this label calling all souls and spirits from the old skool new jersey house, early italian after-hours house and chicagoan finests, from music station, to prescription underground, to palmares, to goldtone … who is paris underground trax? we dont really know, as the label wants to keep the producers name secret! only thing we know is that these tracks were produced in 2010 by a young french dude! so again, these are proper 90s vibes, in the purest deepest tradition, heavy kick, fat basslines, hard swing and massive oldschool keyboards! kerri chandler: >great tracks, i love them all<

the more dedicated amongst you may have noticed a very limited run of purple labelled 12s doing the rounds earlier this year bearing only the roman numeral for 1990, and comprising of two reworked club classics from the year in question well... this time we are looking back at 1987 hard to believe club music this sophisticated sprang forth from the most rudimentary equipment available it truly was a pioneering age - and its testimony to the enduring power of these raw, formative grooves that they can still easily carry a dancefloor four tracks then ranging from slamming chicago jams, to drug addled english basement music all respectfully rewired for a new generation

big with locodice, raresh, brendon moeller, jozif goodwin, matthew styles.... uber talented duo skudge provide the remix on this, fofs 20th release. you may know skudge from their recent bombs >covolution< and >melodrama< on their own self titled label. this offering is a little different, being more of a stripped down, slightly minimally trippy peak time ride but no less powerful for it,

detroit is the first single from double night time, the upcoming album from morgan geist and his first solo artist album in over a decade. it features two epic, gorgeous remixes from grammy-nominated remixer carl craig and features vocals from jeremy greenspan of junior boys. after turning the dance music world on its head with his metro area project (alongside collaborator darshan jesrani) and mining rare disco gems with the seminal obscure disco dj mix unclassics (2004), geist decided it was time to turn his attention to a solo album. detroit is the lead song from the album and (as careful listeners may discern) is based loosely on 24k

legendary quazar first release after 10 years! big-up from r.hawtin, underworld, carl craig, robert hood, radioslave, derrick may

rusty egan and steve strange brought you the blitz club in 1980, the cradle that not only spawned the musical soundtrack to a generation but also the styles, fashions and very fabric of the 80s. thirty years may seem a long time to wait before launching a record label of the same name but the sound of the blitz is as fresh today as it was all those years ago on a side street off covent garden.

c.r.s.t. are four producers from south wales who make all sorts of garage/house/funky

finally, those that may have missed the original version are treated to a special rumped up radio mix of the original... summer lives on.

as you may already know about it, the artist costello (who is living in bordeaux at the moment) is releasing his first ep on boxon records. costello, 23 years old dj/producer, already appeared in international labels (plasmapool, party like us, big fish recordings, dust traxx chicago) and made remixes of artists such as missil, dilemn, stereoheroes, udachi or gooseflesh. thanks to his insane shows, his youth influenced by a good dose of strength and technique, and his electro 90s sounding break, rock or hip-hop, he managed to make a name.
supported by alex gopher, don rimini, missil, cyberpunkers, beataucue, the bloody beetroots, franki chan, mstrkrft, malente, larry tee, calvertron, polymorphic, tommie sunshine, human life, lazy rich, andre dalcanà, ...

baseball and summertime. peanut butter and jelly. ross and rachel. these are all pairs of things that truly belong together. and finally, after years of waiting, legendary detroit hip hop producer nick speed has joined forces with the infamous techno collective, underground resistance, to release a vinyl titled >speed of sound.
while the combination of nick speed and ur seems like a natural fit, kids today may be shocked to find out that it wasnt until the last few years that the two forces combined powers.

3 monster remixes of smashing toca tunes: morumbi (popof), time after time (robbie rivera remix) and b2 morumbi (solaris heights). may the summer come now and stay for good! 2010 repress !!!

get ready for some heavy bass infusion. those who witnessed the infamous audio injection vs. drumcell collaborative 6 hour set at berghain in may could sense the raw and direct path of the uncompromising heavy bass-lines they walk on, yet they possess a subtle sensitivity making this audio experience a physical and mental journey at the same time. with his first ep on electric deluxe, audio injection captured this dark and raw spirit in a perfect way. his tracks move effortlessly from percussive high hat funk to heavy bass-line assault, call it techno coolness. all tracks are dancefloor focused, but contain a healthy dose of weirdness, giving the them longevity while still being functional, spot-on material for the floors typical for electric deluxe releases. the vinyl version of >operation a< is being accompanied by a none other than speedy j himself. the remix has his signature flow, shifting, rich soundscapes layered over a forward bassline sketch. music for minds in dark places.

to support his just released alien artform album, delsin puts out the 2nd dimension 5 12. this 3 tracker continues where the lp version left us: 3 brand new tracks (only network was released on cd only). this one comes for the dancefloor. it opens with dark city, an haunting, melodic 4-floor techno track with those old skool drum sounds. dope! the b-side holds 2 tracks in the same vein, where music box film-esque, like derrick may used to do, and gradually builds up. network is a more soulful tracks, playing around with some nice synths and reminds of old insync / irdial stuff.

soulful deephouse and downbeats on this 2003 debut album by boogymann.

1989 detroit techno classic by derrick may.

espania fast becoming the techno capital of europe! slight exageration perhaps, but maybe those days won t be too far away. the transhuman label bursts onto the scene with a very impressive 5 track ep from arcanoid and the transhumans. from the off, the label plants is flag slap bang in the middle between detroit and berlin, which geographically may be somewhere in the mid atlantic, but musically, you ll probably know what we mean. check postindustrial for a killer slice of techno the likes of which robert hood could be making these days

formed by snow patrols gary lightbody as an outlet for his fascination with country music, tired pony began taking shape in may 2009. by october, the solo project had grown into a full-fledged supergroup featuring another snow patrol veteran, iain archer, his wife miriam kaufmann, producer/musician jacknife lee, belle & sebastian percussionist richard colburn, auxiliary r.e.m. member scott mccaughey, and troy stewart. peter buck joined several months later, and tired pony traveled to portland in early 2010 to record the debut album. featuring guest appearances by zooey deschanel, m. ward, and editors frontman tom smith, >the place we ran from< was finished in one week and released later that year.
