after his succes on mps005, argentinean producer tacito is back for some action on micropunto.another 12inch full of dubby flavours typical of tacitos production, plus an exclusive remix by giorgio gigli (zooloft, prologue) which rounds this release perfectly.this record starts with lession, a dub techno mover that opens nicely this ep with reverberating stabs and percussive loops throughout.leaks brings us to a more mellow and melancolic mood with a break in the middle with nice freezing stabs and mellifluous pads that hypnotize us throughout the track.giorgio giglis remix dont fail to surprise us. with his refined productions he takes the main track and does a stripped down, dubbier version with melodic pads, that gives this track, giorgios special moody imprint.the third track, las flores de fidel, is on a more funky tip with nice percussive sounds while the digital exlusive track hard to sleep, closes this ep elegantly with a mesmerizing composition full of narcotic sounds.

the two dubstep pioneers at the top of their game. the deadly concision, the rhythmic punch and dramatic timing, the spry, side-to-side detailing of a cavernous stage, the crisp-biscuit vocal sampling and middle eastern percussion — together, their sound signatures are not so much totalled as squared. truly an album, the music is multi-levelled — dark as anything at times, but engrossingly varied and emotionally shaded, always on the move.

nice price deal !!! incl marc houle remix !! played by jennifer cardini, r. hawtin, chloe, magda, tiefschwarz, agoria, mandy and luciano. exone hits double digits with dave vega releasing number 10. dave continues where he left off by unleashing the next two tracks based on his convincing crisp, pumping grooves and just the right amount of melodic edge. marc houle adds his remixing talent to round out the ep which playfully hits the spot in the middle- ground between techno and house

edit king leo zero returns with something very special to kick off a new run of no frills dancefloor bombs that have been tried and tested over the summer on a packed worldwide dj schedule from stockholm to tokyo and beyond. first up is an intensive slice and dice exercise on probably the best track from definitely the best band in the world: the clash. leo takes their most disco friendly outing >the maginificent dance< famously spun by mr levan at the garage - and with the more dubby rare levan version he homes in on looped 1 bar sections, skating along to create a new arrangement - added to the brew are bootleg recordings form the clashes infamous live show at nycs bonds ballroom, and even some baseline demos digitally siphoned from people practicing guitar along to the clash on youtube!….. we are left with is an epic labour of love edit that has already found its way into the a-listers record boxes - from derrick carter to laurent garnier who are all spinning this solid as a rock dub disco bomb. on the flip we have a classy house re-work of al hudson & partners >music< which sticks a chi-town kick and snare up its rear end along with some serious sub bass, and in the middle things get all wobbly with some trademark leo zero space echo rides and before we are quickly warped back-in and onto the floor… big with a load of top jocks too including severino of horse meat disco fame.

what do you call musicians like com truise? he seems easy enough to pin down—throw out some words like nostalgia, synth-wave, eighties, and electro-funk and you will scrape by—but to be truly insightful about his music is tough, because art that is so blatantly referencing certain things in a certain way while also making them weird and new and unique is confusing. how do you classify something that is so obviously both vintage and current but is too fun to call postmodern? awesome is an option. especially when it sounds like you are driving the knight rider car through thick clouds of nitrous oxide, like >fairlight<, the title track from truises new single, which previously appeared on an iso50 comp called dry waves and also has this jarring, falling-all-over-itself middle section that prevents you from trancing out too hard. >beta eyes<, the track that follows, is even more restless, with a drum pattern that is fidgety and clustered, kicks and snares fighting each other like two drum and bass heads arguing over an atari remote. >polyhurt<, a narcotic, almost ballad-like closer that inevitably leaves you thinking, >now, how the hell am i going to describe that to someone?< the vinyl exclusive cut >colorvision< could be truises most dancefloor friendly track yet.

get ready for a new exciting collaborative project on electric deluxe! >workshops< is a new experimental series of releases by phil kieran and jochem paap (aka speedy j). the idea behind this project is to explore the recording techniques used in the middle of the 20th century and dating right back to the mid 1950s. famous inspirational places like bbc radiophonic workshops in england and philips lab in holland have seen some of the most innovative production techniques, experimenting with the first use of stereo, modular synths, found sounds and reel to reel tapes. the end result was always something space age and promisingly futuristic and still to this day fresh sounding, crisp and exciting. phil kieran and jochem paap have decided to use this inspiration to effortlessly accomplish marrying the past, present and future in an innovative mix of old ideas with new.

for our 33rd release we welcome back darius syrossian whos last area remote >stay up dancing, get in monday< scorched the international club systems back in march.
seeking for peace was triggered after darius got home from a great gig and while chilling at home saw the news on tv. horrific footage of the onslaught in the middle east and the suffering of the innocent families caught up in the bombing made him realise that when he had been living it up, others were living in fear.
bass not bombs is the inspiration for the other 3 remixes. the proceeds from his two tracks will be given to the international red crescent.

limited edition orange vinyl promos. the first solo 12 inch for samurai music by rising kiwi star dose. co-writer of one of the labels biggest ever selling releases (the other part of me with trei), the recent uk migrant comes with what we feel is his best work to date. >reason being< defines the term roller, and with its euphoric middle section mixes the ruffness of its driving rhythm with the silky smoothness of its melodic overcoat. >helpless< is another tech funk masterpiece from dose which has been competing strongly for a side status since we signed this 12 inch. dj support from klute, teebee, spectrasoul, marky, break, logistics, phace, state of mind and many more. watch for the forthcoming dose full length album in late 2011 on samurai music.

averse to any easy classification, rainbow arabias continent-trekking, kaleidoscope pop is rooted in no particular time or place, employing modern technological processes to an array of musical cultures and eras. the los angeles duo began with the purchase of a lebanese casio that played microtonal scales and eastern beats, with which they quickly recorded their propulsive first ep, the basta, synthesizing bossa nova and industrial post-punk with heavy middle eastern vibes. digging deeper for inspiration from the worldly found sounds of sublime frequencies compilations, their follow-up ep, kabukimono, expanded the color palette of their >fourth world< pop with dark, arabic disco-dancehall jams sitting alongside sunnier moments with caribbean and african flourishes...

it might seem counterintuitive for a producer to detach themselves from one of the planets most thriving music scenes, but in the case of matthew walker, aka julio bashmore, thats exactly what he did growing up in bass music hotbed, bristol. you see, julios first love is house music. and operating just on the peripheries of the citys scene has allowed him to quietly cultivate a take on the genre unlike any other.
following white hot releases for dirtybird, ten thousand yen and soul motive this is bashmores first new material of 2011

!!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

supported by: reboot, dubfire, ewan pearson, samuel l session, raresh, tim xavier, christian smith,.. with oliver deutschmann & ed davenport polytone proceeds on its way to focus on exceptional artists who have something really profound to say musicwise. quite slowly, but highly stringently deutschmann and davenport build up this musical journey until, without really realising, youre in the middle of a very slamming house track of a truely oldschool kind which gains further drama due to subtle chord changes. in his remix, matthias vogt from motorcitysoul further emphasises the tracks house character by adding more chords and then lets the deepness culminate in a wonderful break. robert bosco totally breaks out of the traditional catgories house and techno and combines the best of both worlds in his remix distilling it to a kind of essence of electronic music. all three tracks have in common an immensely consistent approach and a pleasingly trend-resistant understanding of deep music

12inch full of music with a definite sense of place. eerie synthesiser pulses, funk-infused drums and languid guitar-scapes have been part of the musical topology of düsseldorf since the early seventies: and this particular release pays full tribute to that legacy, with jagd auf den hirsch (hunt for the stag) comprising an eerie piece of swampy lazer-forest rock. this sound is also a modern day staple of düsseldorfs nightlife at the salon des amateurs, a small bar attached to the kunsthalle art gallery that is an oasis of hypnotic disco nightmares. the salon is where der räuber und der prinz made their first live appearance in 2008 (when the original composition for moogwalzer was debuted), and both members of the band frequently play there: ralf beck with his bodyrocking club act unit 4 and sebastian as half of art-rock duo noblesse oblige. meanwhile two of the guests on this release - detlef weinrich also known as toulouse lowtrax, contributing words about a ghostly maiden on moogwalzer, and thomas klein contributing drums to jagd auf den hirsch - are both original members of the quintessential düsseldorf act kreidler. salon dj resident vladimir ivkovic also had a hand in the creative clarion call for the jagd auf den hirsch (hunt for the stag). to complete the circle, düsseldorfs new resident and desolat mainstay guti wrote his remix in the middle of the night in buenos aires, as a kind of letter to his new home-to-be. there we have it: a true tribute to a city we love, with tracks for the dancefloor as well as moments of melancholic contemplation.

dimitri kneppers (1967) music career reads like an encyclopedia. a house encyclopedia. after 23 years of spinning records you could call this dj a true veteran. known for his enormous sensitivity, true feeling and mixing skills he gives you the sense you are the voyeur of an intimate act between two lovers. the music and the man. but nobody ever felt and looked so comfortable behind the decks as dj dimitri, for he brings the crowd at ease like don juan would do with women. when ecstasy is no longer just a word, but a true magical moment as the crowd, the surroundings and the music all come together in one hypnotizing state of happiness. this man knows -or should we say feels- what he is doing, not only behind the decks but also when producing. in september 2007 dimitri said goodbye to his headphones to work on a farm with mentally handicapped people. fortunately for his fans the break wasnt premanent in the middle of last year he installed a studio in his home, then this past june he returned to the decks - now he makes his planet e debut with a stunning track already tearing up dancefloors. included is the first of two remixes by carl craig. a second ep with remixes by orlando voorn and carl craig will appear in early 2011

first on decks.de!!! hija de colombia is putting out its second release in the middle of november. after great dj, radio and press reactions on its first release - >loco suenos ep<, there was no need to change much. el nino andres is again the artist, but the music he provides for this releases is a step further in deepness of tech house. anton kordic, who records under the name el nino andres, provides the somophore release, a two track fusion of south american, detroit and berlin influences. title track is a intensive orchestral affair, going for full 14 minutes of drums, big piano hooks and sax layers. b side >illmatico< is a percussion monster, that builds under a catchy organ melody. the cycle repeats every 2 minutes, and tracks subtly builds layers and layers of rhythm.

limited version with printed artwork, hand numbered cover and painted label.

following his debut ep on ptn, 17 year old icelander hypno drops his second release on ramp recordings. moving away from his deep house and funky leanings of his debut, >go shorty< lands directly in the middle of contemporary bass music with juke vibrations, while >sunkin< treads a technoid wood-block path.

the final chapter of vonstrokes limited vinyl album remixes features some seriously low end.
remix #1 is one the favorites of the entire project. claude met brazils dj marky on an artist bus at a uk festival last summer and gave him the track >aundy<. he asked him to do a mix and marky and his friend s.p.y. turned in this amazing drum n bass version. numerous artists have been dropping it even in the middle of house sets! it really captures the drum n bass feeling of the original track taking it back to the genre which inspired it.
remix #2 is from our up and coming bristol based bass prodigy, julio bashmore. he takes on >california< the co-production by cvs and j phlip to another level, adding smooth low end bukem style bass drops and shimmery vox/pad programming to the already insane track. bashmore is one of the few new breed of uk producers who cross over all the way from house to dubstep.

ctf is like a ufo which landed in the middle of disney land, annihilating all the phony shit around it with lasers switched on kill. a totally unprecedented surprise of a vinyl date rape without a date or a warning. these two tracks are genre defining and genre defying. this is the real future perpetual funk - out of nowhere. just a big smelly chubby chunk of energy made right on your plate before your nose.

big with: matthias tanzmann, loco dice, sascha dive, federico molinari, einzelkind,.. after the big success of chris wood & meats >back down ep< on murmur records (groove charts position 2 !!), they sticked together to bring out their next ep on below records. because of the experience as djs and their work at freebase records, they know exactly what kind of music brings the dancefloor on fire. the a - side is a strong floorfiller, with a long intro section and very nice housecords rising in the middle of the track b 1 is an house track with a typical chicago oldshool feeling b 2 brings back the breakbeats on the dancefloor..

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

on this 12 inch k’alexi is dropping the poetic smooth voice over the remixes of “you are” ov takes it into the jazzy feel with sublime bass and chord structure as we are used to from him. fluffy sounds and smooth backround vocal stabs that makes you want to replay it after it’s finished. maurice joshua is bumping you out your seat with his energetic samba house flavor mix of “you are . this track is right in the middle and can be played in a techno room as well. norman chung is discovered by k’ alexi and provides a supersolid mix-edit of k’s original. words keys and rhythm are dominating the track. flawless production make this a great contribution to this ep. k’ alexis dub mix is uptempo tech-soul-house and will be easily picked up by the techno dj as it is a great tool. echoing “you are’s” floating around and drives you into a haunting synth soundscape.

big with: lauhaus, boris werner, nick curly, federico molinari, kabale und liebe, nekes, johnny d, sascha dive, 2000&one, markus fix, dj wild, chriss carrier, ray okpara,.. ama recordings is ray okparas label out of mannheim, germany. amaefule, rays middle name in fact, literally means >your name will never get lost< and it symbolizes the strength of identity we create through music. ama is also derived from the latin meaning of love and the philosophy of the label is born out of the affection held for conceiving and sharing quality electronic music. there are no rules about what ama recordings will sound like, but it comes from the heart, so expect true house values to be maintained at all times with a natural tip towards the deep and dubby.

b1: royal mix by dirk leyers. dirk submits a striking take on the title disregarding structure entirely, turning it into a submarinal practical knowledge, stadium ready!
b2: reedo mix by the maertini brothers. the mix they rendered is pure love! laid back, with a variation on the vocal neither angie nor €ric were prepared for, listen closely to the bassline!

i know, i know… these tunes can really not be classified as house tools. martin beume, who also released the fabulous texgreen ep on outils, presents three unorthodox house tracks packed with the two winner components: weird melodies and mighty basslines. step right up! - the first cut on this release, gives you the feeling of being in a khole in the middle of a freak show carnival. catchy and odd melody snippets rotating diffusely on a never ending marching groove - absurdity in its most elegant form. slowly but steady – its a telling title! old school to the core, this track builds up steadily and adds layer for layer of jazzy samples until the tune is completed to an alluring dancefloor killer. flowing ribbon – what a lovely and sweet tune.

>united by hardness<, supreme collaboration between the stunned guys & art of fighters, official 2010 anthem of the wellknown united hardcore forces party, is finally out now on a wonderful picture disc.
the sound of the track is powerful and effective, the middle break is built up on a slow tempo hardcore kick drum, which takes you into the massive floorfiller melody. the lyrics speak for themselves!

habibi leads things off by conjuring some middle eastern vibes, including spoken samples of the tracks title and sitar loops.
in nightlcubs continues with a balkan vibe, featuring some upbeat horns that give the track a great bouncy feel and is reminiscent of smith n hacks remix for herbert. remixes come from exploited-chief shir khan and deadfishs finest camel.

>all i need< kicks off with female vocal chat on housey beats, in the middle you hear more of heavenly vocal – slow minimal filter house stylee. side b, >got to see her< presents party minimal disco style, marvin gaye-ish vocal line comes in middle with killer electric piano code. >hurt me< starts with killer funky bassline, groovy percussion & clap. theo parish esque flavour makes this track stands out when you play just before peak time on the dancefloor! simply winner.

at the core of every contented family is a sense of balance, an emotional push and pull that helps stabilize the entire unit. a similar equilibrium anchors le loups second album, family. recorded in a remote cabin and a maryland basement, the record finds the middle ground between tribal rock, freak folk, and sonic experimentation.

men in trees are back with their third ep on its own platform audio parish. this time they take us with a healthy portion of groove to mango city. once there, we meet barfly, this track draws us immediately into its spell with its deep character and hypnotic groove and the insane vocal part in the break. this give us finally the feel we are actually in a smoky bar in the middle of mango city. this is an amazing super warm and rollin piece of house music. alabasta on the flip, with its bright and massive sounds, is a dry forward rolling peak-time-mover. this track is jaunty fun that will get the crowd moving for sure. return to mango city is the next killer release with the typical men in trees-groove, two different house tracks, which will provide a lot of dancefloor action.
