great 4 track ep, featuring alberto sola & mateo, aldo cadiz & matthew lima, basti grub & mike trend and jose de divina & cristian viviano & javi murdok. booming bass!

asiko disko - jt uses classic drum machines, sneaky acid lines and a mike dunn-esqe vocal to create this underground gem.
gaia - this track is sure to be a dj favorite. pounding tribal rhythms, hypnotic chants and an arrangement demanding to stay in the mix. this is a dj weapon.
asiko disko (dave aju remix) - having been a fan of dave aju for a while we thought it would be a hoot to get a remix from him. the result is a slow burning, shimmering remix that takes the original and shoots into space.
gaia (lance desardi remix) - our main man lance desardi turns in a electric remix. taking the original and delving into darker territory. new sonic creatures rotate around deep bass tones, hypnotic chants and new directions.

this fall dumb unit returns with what is sure to become a household name in electronica: thomas feriero aka avatism. known recently for his moody releases on labels such as mike shannon s haunt and tiefschwarz s souvenir, his dark yet hopeful productions are already receiving plaudits by some of the scenes top artists. opening the doors to new musical members has not been a common occurrence at du which therefore means that this release must be something special indeed. and it is. dark, brooding yet full of energy and substance. all tracks hit with a welcome hint of catchiness and hooks embracing what is current in dance music today, without losing sight of the label or the artists individuality. 4 quality tracks of equal stature command full attention on this ep. one of the the labels most exciting releases to date and one which signifies a strong 2012 ahead!

glass tear groove is the new concept release from drum machine rookie, inkswel. a follow up to the random yet bubbling >get to my party< release, this ep cohesively mashes together drum machine sounds and new wave funk tendencies. the title track featuring vocal funkster zackey force funk (baron zen/jellphonic/mike gao) brings forth a timeless love song vibe into inkswels popping and locking approach to song composition. >good times< is inkswels ode to post disco and pre house sounds, fuzzy yamaha synth stabs and watery chords. backed with the bonus beat vibe of >whos fooling who<, a stand alone banger for beat heads and party animals. also packaged with stellar remix work from ppu/superior elevation s tom noble aka disco tom.

west coasts king & hound (james glass & dj garth) strike again with two more killer edits: my time your time a guitar driven german rock jam from 1980 that easily gets re-edited into a cosmic disco cut and tubular bells which a cover of mike oldfields classic used in halloween.

jimmy posters and huxleys new imprint saints & sonnets present their debut ep from production duo ethyl & huxley with the 3 feet high ep. deep, powerful and rounded deep house is on the menu for release number one as strong bass holds down light melodies and slurry vocals for an undoubtedly peak time record. electronic chameleon and self proclaimed dandy roman flugel is in for remix duty and his dubby mix 2 flirts with push and pull percussion and chopped vocal snippets for a delightfully experimental revision.
played by: dj red d (we play house recs), jepe from johnwaynes, ethyl, j.cub (eclectic avenue records), quell (ibadan, these days), cedric maison (hypercolour), milton jackson, mike omara(development music), mike w - kolour recordings, kevintsuba, chamboche (zleep/under the shade), nicola conte, huxley, sccucci manucci, sean cormac (forward disco nyc)

in 2010 the la based label halo cyan records re-released vladislav delay s sistol project. for this deluxe 2cd reissue various well known electronic musicians remixed the recordings from 1999. the whole project received enthusiastic reviews in pitchfork, resident advisor, etc. one of the remixers is mike huckaby, who transferred sistols track >keno< into an outstanding dubby detroit-house masterpiece. it was immediately clear that this track had to be released on vinyl. we are delighted to announce the collaboration between halo cyan and slics of life for mike huckabys s y n t h remix of keno. on the b-side, mike huckaby remixed a track originally produced in the same time period: poles >silberfisch< was released in 2000 on the highly acclaimed yellow album >3<, re-released by scape in 2008 as part of the 3-cd pole box. in 2011, mike huckaby keeps the dubby and slightly melancholic crackling atmosphere of the original, but his s y n t h remix is beams >silberfisch< straight onto the dancefloor, where it arrives as a driving deep techno track.

eclipsemusic is pleased to announce the sixth release introducing the talented canadian producer matt thibideau. he is known in toronto, detroit, montreal, & berlin for having performed with the ikes of mike huckaby, akufen, richie hawtin andreleasing music on labels such as mike shannons cynosure and sub-static with hisnew wave-industrial band repair.. matt has a very personal approach to making music that refuses to use software instruments and give free expression to his unlimited passion for the sound of his analog synthesizers. he records directly through a mixer playing his live instruments. this particular feature shines through his deep and warm sound! >when its time< is a typical techouse style track with a solid structure consisting of a straight and bouncy rhythm, deep bass with futuristic chords and techy arpeggiators running over it. the track starts very deep develops into a more raw sound that leaves no survivors on the dance floor! >holding on to you< is a much more dub-oriented track this time we have ambient and rarefied atmosphere which develops progressively over a repetitive bass line and drum machine rhythm with a mixture of chords and pads typically inspired by the basic channel sound. the title track >night drive< (licensed from matts obsolete components record label) is a masterpiece of deep house music vaguely reminiscent of many mid-nineties works from labels like guidance recordings and wave music, that will become an instant classic for all deep-house heads. very melodic and groovy bass line with a mixture of pads, reverberated chords and many delayeffected elements. 7 minutes of pure deepnes

special collectors edition on limited red transparent, smokey marbled vinyl! two powerful tracks by dj hi-shock, backed up with 2 huge remixes by mike humphries and psi room.

only one copy per customer / nur eine kopie pro kunde .. full of deep quality house music from helsinki. the opening title track -doright!- is a soulful broken deep house journey through rhythm and vibe. powered up with deep detroit chords and vocal samples. second track -keepitraw- is a tribute to detroit deep house, especially producers such as omar s, moodymann and mike huckaby. raw grooves topped of with heavy percussion breaks. b-side starts out with -othaway-. strange enough, the track combines both african and bossa influences. this mellow jammer has a piano hook that seems irresistible while the percussion floats through track until reaching it s peak in the end. final track for the release is an old school style tr-909-influenced ourlove. simple piano stabs on top of a killer house groove can never go wrong. keep an eye-out for the finnish deep house scene, be on the look out for more trevor deepness coming late 2011.

russian label highway records run by mike spirit presents its 13th release, made by slideshow park. including phat mixes come from phonique (pokerflat, dessous, souvenir, renaissance) and solee (parquet, diebaudio).

the us born and berlin based walker barnard created a unique ep drawing from his years of experience and studio work with sounds as diverse as hip-hop and minimal techno. featuring the legendary us poet and producer mike ladd and a remix from our good friend iron curtis, the result is something completely different and yet strangely familiar.

its been a long wait but finally 501 returns with yet another bigtime 12inch that will roll out punches even more than mike tyson! fresh off his release from never say die sees 501 twisting it differently this time.. >gist< is a vocal infused stomper that opens the 12inch perfectly and sees 501 leaning into a swagger tip. it flows, it rocks, it jumps its everything in 1. it shows a different side to the standard 501 sound and shows he can bend any way he would like to. you can hear that in the b side >borderline< where he exchanges the sweet vocals of gist for a psychotic quote and the swagger lean for some ear shattering kicks & snares. hear borderline destroy your eardrums like the good old days with some sub! nothing beats the old fashioned heavyweight sound! another essential 501 record!

in following up marcellus pittmans killer eastside story, seventh sign waste no time in bringing another red-hot act to the label. a member of the legendary underground resistance / los hermanos / galaxy 2 galaxy crew, santiago salazar has also enjoyed success as a member of the trinity (with mad mike banks and gerald mitchell) and more recently as ican, not to mention his many solo outings. his pedigree is unquestionable, a fact not lost on the many labels that have played host to his music, including submerge, planet e, motech and now seventh sign. santiagos sound is full of soul and warmth and is presented using state of the art production and a rich palette of modern sounds, as this e.p. demonstrates to devastating effect... hot!

rather lightweight live album, only thirty four minutes long, three songs and some painful applause herding for an encore. the line-up is essentially the girls line-up, though john g. perry s been replaced by an also-excellent mike wedgwood. the production is clear but the mix misjudged: the admittedly nicely brought out bass sound dwarfs all other elements. in particular, pye hastings guitar is very low, the drums never seem to match the bass volume.

finest and darkest nachtstrom techno produced by logotech, octave & dolby-d!!! this 2x12-vinyl is played and supported by audio injection, drumcell, mike humphries, space djz, sasha carassi, mark morris and various others!

the future of hidden recordings is vibrantly on display with the young producers m.a.d.a. & plankton, who are already a hot property these days with crucial releases on tanz factory, naked lunch, phobiq, sleaze, eminor and more. it seems only natural that the duo would eventually cross paths with the high flying new york city based hidden recordings, a label soaring on the success of its previous two releases - 013hrwolkenreise and 012hrthe great lawn. the union here is a blast of refined techno in the form of antiz. the ep is as dark as midnight and heavy as a load of bricks with a musical character that is memorable and distinct. hidden once again shows its commitment to releasing quality dance floor music with a hard-hitting original and a hand-picked collection of remixes from other well-respected new techno stars including: sasha carassi, alejandro trebor, felix bernhardt, mike wall, michael schwarz, and hidden founders deepak sharma & dieter krause. hidden recordings once more delivers a massive release, this time to celebrate the next generation of producers forthcoming on the label.

further to motor city drum ensembles dj kicks compilation, his exclusive single l.o.v.e. has been reworked by the young detroit prodigy kyle hall, the painter and music creator wolfgang voigt and an excellent remix by smallpeople. kyle has been highly influenced and captivated by the underground deep house sound of detroit. inspired by artists such as theo parrish, mike huckaby, rick wade, 3 chairs, kdj and omar s, who believe their music has a certain feeling of the advant garde and liberation from the so-called rules people place upon dance music. kyle took that principle of their music and applied it to music that he was trying to create. wolfgang voigt is known for his numerous, nearly inexhaustible list of one-off projects and aliases. of these, his best known is arguably >gas< a project that saw the marriage of ambient music and 4/4 techno. his remix of motor citys l.o.v.e shows his minimalistic approach to music he has been famed for worldwide. smallpeople are julius steinhoff & just von ahlefeld aka dionne. smallpeople are focused on a wider range of music and can be diverse- between deep house, detroit techno and some chicago flavours but always within the balance of atmospheric warmth and club suitability bringing yet another perfect addition to this remix package. watch out for more big tunes from smallpeople in the near future

after some big releases with luke hess, mike dehnert, sebastien san, mikkel metal & resoe here comes the next bomb, this time by the duo skudge. it also includes a deep and dubby powerfull remix by conforce.

murphy jax returns with his 2nd twelve inch for clone after his big debut release, its the music, ft mike dunn. no surprise that its retro chicago inspired tracks. comes with one of those rare remixes by orgue electronique (actually two of those)

naked lunch celebrate their 20th vinyl release with a strong 4 tracker of true no-nonsense techno. happy birthday!

this new reference on dilek records is something very particular and out of the ordinary. it was achieved after a long period of work in the studio, which lasted three years and was done with a lot of heart and passion. its the 10th vinyl release of this surprising swiss/argentinean label who is now presenting an extremely multicultural project. these productions are full of diversity and humanity, telling the story of an unusual encounter that led to a beautiful musical project with many influences, but mainly focused on the dancefloor, without complexes and far away from the purism.

disco nihilist is a rather special project. firmly rooted in the us-american electronic music traditions, mike taylors records on love what you feel or construction paper roam the grey are between chicagos jack urgency, detroits funky machine soul and the raw magic of vintage drum machines. his style is natural, murky, filthy and raw to the core. the six track ep >running (far away)< for running back is an exercise in grinding beats, squelching acid lines, graceful pianos and heartfelt rhythms without any paralyzing retro romance. it is what it is. get a piece of the real bread

nice price deal !!! nastynasty a.k.a. jasper reeder is a us bay area dubstep producer whose planet mu debut pits a slither of pitch-altered mournful vocal melody against a rough modulated bassline and 8 bit chimes, to catchy and memorable effect.
on the b side - heterotic - a.k.a. mike paradinas and lara rix-martin put together a remix that is altogether more upbeat, pitching up and looping the sample while building loose panned drums and a rushing arpeggio into an optimistic almost romantic crescendo with sweet chords and glassy tones that sit somewhere between juke and synth pop.

here comes the new echocord colour. after some big releases with luke hess, mike dehnert and sebastien san here comes the new one which is a split ep of the copenhagen heroes mikkel metal & resoe. after his latest 12 inch on echocord, mikkel metal again shows us his more techno-side of his universe, with this killer peaktime bomb, and still with his own unique deep sound. after his resent album on echocord, resoe here presents a more dancefloor-orientated track, for the fans of dettmann/klock, shed, sandwell district and pattern repeat.

who am i? thats what ruede hagelstein asks himself when he looks at the reflection in the mirror every morning when he gets up. then the image goes into the studio and produces tracks for upon you for him. the first one sings >give a little slap to your soul< darkly and romanticly at a relaxed 120 bpm into the mike and has taken up lodgings on a1 of our uy 047. the second plays piano, even if just paraphrased. the b1 beat requires a slightly faster dancer that a1. then the third member of the group on b2 with a quite definitive minimal touch, sounds a bit like peter and the wolf at the lsd opera … hop hop off you go then my lovelies.

one of the killer tracks from the electric love lp. mixes from felix the housecat. pressed on purple vinyl

the fifth neurhythmics release is a compilation of befriended artists, and this is reflected by the different interpretations of the individuals to what the labels sound is about. juergen provides the a-side with >common sense< a vocal-snippet driven house-track, that once again underpins his sound-aesthetics of having it sound live and mixed on the fly, straight out of the machine. the flip-side could not start off any better. quite possibly a future classic, >signature< by mike binary, has soul and emotion literally squeezed in between each of the effortlessly programmed beats, and has become one the favourite tracks at the neurhythmics hq to ever been put on the label. last but not least, >no other< by the dirty soul project (you will know these guys, but we were sworn to secrecy) firmly pulls the hand brake and slows things down to just over 110 bpm. this doesnt mean that this very hypnotic number isnt going to work in the early morning slots…au contraire, actually...

2 unlimiteds no limit meets dancehall superstar sean paul and house heavyweight bob sinclair - a true crossover monster!
