funky and laid back jazz constructed house tracks with spacy dimension by dewalta. we are very happy to release such a fantastic long player which keeps alive our dear paris-berlin connection and our taste for subtle melange between jazz and house music. both tracks malbec and syrah will bring you far on the dancefloor like a good wine does with its fine and deep flavours of fruits and whatever it can tell about the history of its ground. david koch under his artist name dewalta persuades first on the a side with malbec. a dry clap introduces to the affair, short followed by a kick and a driving funky deep baseline which could be far enough to convince any dj fan of minimal hypnotic loops. having set up that strong base, he plays then carefully some light but brillant layers of jazzy arrangements. santé! syrah, follows up in a more trippy way performing a jazzy and elegant journey which destination is certainly somewhere in the cosmos. mastered and cutted by mike grinser at the berlin studio man made mastering.

concluding what has proven to be a nothing short of an epic trilogy, dynamic reflection unveils the final instalment in abstract divisions >form and function< series. the crowning piece features one new abstract division track, >deformation< and three remixes from mike parker, norman nodge and the secretive area forty one

juan atkins returns to r&s on a model 500 solo mission. the last model 500 single enlisted the help of the live line up that includes detroit techno royalty mike banks and ur alumni mark taylor, but this latest release is just juan in the studio and back at his best. >control< is vintage model 500, the classic electro that atkins pretty much invented, with his treated vocals riding over the crisp rhythm programming, dark basslines and detroit synths. >the messenger< on the flip is a moodier affair, with the liquid synths almost running away with themselves over the rough beats. model 500 and r&s has proved to have been a classic combination over the years and this release is one to file next to the classics.

another epic seahawks voyage and this time theyre heading for the deep ocean of outer space. the results have been likened to the klfs chill out album performed by astroanuts. yep its that spacey but theres plenty of baked groove excursions along with the cosmic dinner jazz. imagine that instead of creating yah mo be there, michael mcdonald and james ingram hopped aboard a spaceship captained by sun ra and set the controls for alpha centauri. somewhere between the sea of tranquillity and the red heat of mars they find a party going on, klaus schulze is jamming with chic and peter frampton, kenny loggins is on bongos and the horn section from the doobie brothers are blowing soft and sweet but mike and jim have taken a whole lot of mind bending psychotropics and the music sounds like nothing theyve ever heard before. you are entering the seahawks universe, let your mind roam free. to ensure premium audio fidelity, the lp was mastered at abbey road and pressed at vinyl factory. as ever the artwork is beautiful and the edition is limited so get your skates on!

hot techno tracks by the usual suspects: roman lindau, mike dehnert & sascha rydell. red vinyl!

following a landmark ep by pacou, and after mike huckaby paid homage to tresor records steeped lineage with his vault-dipping 20th anniversary mix, sights are set squarely on the future with the labels next release from fresh techno outfit puresque.
puresque is paul brtschitsch and mocca—paul whose discography stretches back to the mid-90s and is widely regarded for his sensitive sound arrangements both on record and live, and mocca—real name michael kunz- who has been simmering his sonic pallet on the berlin circuit over the last few years. they met over a mutual love of vinyl and entered the studio together with the desire to create something raw, as removed as possible from the synthetic feel of purely digital production.

for its second release label head jrico joins forces with djf, who has recorded for spanish labels such as titans halo and his own tesla imprint. jrico is closely involved with the hip cool downbeat label, recording the recently released downbeat 05, and downbeat 03 that was remixed by mike huckaby. deep analogue house music with its roots steeped in the traditions of detroit and chicago. the labels sales notes prefer to describe the instruments used in the production.
early support from keith worthy, mike huckaby, ksoul, brawther, damon lamar, chris gray and specter.

he has been called the baron of the beats, a knight of life, the life of the night, or even occasionally plain mike gamwell, to you and i though, he is only knightlife.
he is cutters records secret weapon and he is back with the 3rd tome in his royal club catalogue, serves you right / otherway.
the new 12 inch follows on from knightlife i (2007) and knightlife ii (2009), funnily enough, both promising quests into the future of dance with a healthy respect of the past from the melbourne-based producer. with a string of distinguished remixes in between times, serves you right / otherway again sees gamwell forge onwards and upwards, adding yet more strings to his accomplished bow.

here comes the new echocord colour. after some big releases with luke hess, skudge, sebastien san, mike dehnert c& resoe here comes the next bomb, this time by mikkel metal. mikkel has been our main act on echocord since the beginning 10 years ago, and is getting more and more active within the musicscene. his new ep on echocord colour he presents his rough side of the genre, raw warehouse infused dubby grooves. both tracks are perfect for the peaktime dancefloor, for the fans of levon vincent, kassem mosse and the berghain sound of berlin.

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!
