this third release is finally lead by its mastermind monsieur claude monnet.the pioneer of ethnic and exotic contaminations creates a sort of bridge between ancestral hypnosis of african tribal movements, haitian voodoo incantation and the third millennium dancefloors. a strong cascade of rhythm modulated by a deep and vibrant drum framing a mysterious dialog between an imaginary witch doctor and a persuasive feminine voice and bringing the listener in a state of trance able to carry body and mind away. monnets lesson sounds highly clear, few elements developed with masterful creativity and an unconventional dealing of music composition make at its best the real essence of house music. firmly balearic approach

incl piemont rmx!! after the overwhelming initial outing by amir (bodymusic one) on suchtreflex, the fresh new hamburgian label signed none other than german minimal act lars wickinger, who already had a bunch of mind-blowing releases on reference labels like traum, opossum and liebe datail. lars, who describes his musical style as techno with a spirit from minimal and house, produced 2 extraordinary and modern sounding tech house tunes, which will definitely cause huge waves of response - so watch out! for even more musical variety, each with 2 remixes were added: the hamburg based producer duo piemont (mbf, hi freaks) reinterpreted >spooky farm< on the a1 and the very talented el carlitto (artminimal) of belgium remixed the flipside >quiche<!

off-key limited is a new subsidiary label of off-key industries whose aim is to give exposure to new artists alongside established producers and to bring a wider range of genres with less of a focus on the dancefloor. each release will be strictly limited and will not be repressed. we start by raiding the off-key vaults to unleash a series of releases entitled >the dust off<, featuring material written in the off-key studio over the years by matt o brien and various collaborators and associates. matt kicks off the ep with >a new page turns<, a bangin dubby detroit techhouse cut driven by a low slung rhythm and analog stabs dripping in reverb, overlayed with a melodica riff which calls to mind the smokey refrains of augustus pablo. next up is >untitled< by newcomer mat gates, a beatless slice of electronica whose understated melodies conjure up thoughts of late summer evenings of times gone by. on the flip, o brien and gates combine under the artist name kimble to bring you >epiphany<, led by a shimmering melody underpinned with haunting strings which combine to form an electro track of rare beauty. this diverse ep is completed with mat gates second contribution, >in a hole<, a drum n bass track with a disjointed, skeletal rhythm, sub bass drops and fragile, melancholy melody.

>read my mind< is the first full-on vocal track to actually be released by metro area (they had amassed a small catalog of unreleased vocal tracks since starting the project). featuring the incredible pipes of philip owusu (of ubiquity records owusu & hannibal), >read my mind< is a dynamic boogie romp full of contrast: sweet yet meloncholy, warm yet raw. it hearkens back to the days where songwriting and arrangement still had a place in dance music and we hope youll love it. and for the beat purists, theres an irresistible >rmm special dub< version - perfect for doubles! flipping to the b-side yields >erodyne<- an incredible space-disco epic that rocks time and space, looking forward with angular arpeggiated riffs and futurist moods while anchored by an undeniably d.i.s.c.o. groove. check out metro area 7 and be transported - hot music, built to last!

its almost 4 years to the day that jeff samuels >throatwobbler mangrove ep< was released on karloff #03, and even today the four world hits of the record are getting digged out by djs, when the minimalism needs to either groove or jack again. so now with >return of the throatwobbler< theres finally an appropriate follow-up by the man from seattle.. erm.. berlin, after he’s impressively run riot in the meantime, on labels like spectral, trapez, poker flat, frankie and logistic. the a-side >terso< is shuffling and twirling and bouncing in such a winsome way that not many can master like jeff samuel. almost like an electric ray - left and right and left, and without letting any tempting gimmicks take the mind off the straight path. appropriately enough, >the spook< on the b-side comes along a bit more spookily, with a bassline twisting into the brain, ripped up by miniatures of bleeps and chords just in the right moments, and thus leading the track to an agile, exhilarated climax

>after his very well acclaimed debut on orphanear with >jujuy&salta< and his impelling and chartbreaking remix for tocotronics latest 12 >imitationen<, pawel is back with >gabriel< on orphanear. both tracks have it in oneself to provide the autumn soundtrack for deep and dark house loving clubs all over the globe. the a-side with >gabriel< mixes classic house-strings with some xylophone and bell-sounds rather known from hamburgs scene around dial and smallville records. these elements built up in beautiful layers to culminate in a furious rather ironic break. the b-side with >early bird< begins with an airy beat that brings pawels 2004 vocalhouse lover >grab it< back to mind. after the softer intro the track mutates into a synthspiral which home has already been defined by pawels 12 >ceramic<. some abandoned industrial city in the north of the united states. a timeless record.<

number 1 steve bug charts !!! redshape is len fakis musical partner of podium #05. with releases on delsin, styrax leaves and present he is regarded as on of the most exciting newcomers on the dance music circuit. few producers have achieved to delevop such an individual approach to detroit techno, few musicans managed to rough it up so relentlessly. redshapes track is an interminable battle against stagnation, each bar of the track bursts with musical creativity. on >whats on a moogs mind?<, this genre building synthesizer turns into a brain. the moog overrules all conventions of musical form, the machine becomes an unpredictable furious beast. the 808 cowbell develops an uncanny, emotional quality. a techno track as gripping as a cliffhanger. len fakis >odyssee ii< relates perfectly the dramatic tension of redshapes track. the absorbing sounds just soaks you in. through the whole accoustic journey of the track, you feel his sense for the special athmosphere of the berghain which reminds clubbers of a medieval cathedral

supported by brett johnson, woody, dj t, chris duckenfield and laurent garnier !! >the last shooter< uses mind bending funk to tell the story of three people ending an epic day/night in a blaze of jagermeister glory. the most descriptive element of this tracky adventure would be the misguided, off kilter synth twists that give the listener the illusion of drunkenness and vertigo. backed with a spine of latin percussion and tweaked low rez hi hats this a side packs a punch that can be only compared to >the last shooter< of the night.funk flows on when you flip it to side b. fongtom rides along with a thick walking bass line that weaves grinds with some of ferreyras signature percussion. a playful melody serves as the memory game hook that wont fade away even after a post joint meltdown or a night of mtv top 40 abuse

remixes by woody & dj t.!! dj t.s >the dawn< 1st appeared in may of this year, and it was a 12inch of typical poise, refinement and dancefloor effectiveness from the get physical boss. now its time for the remixes... first up, t. himself tackles >jam pot<. the resulting track is the dancefloor monster that >jam pot< always threatened to be - subtle, intelligent, but unswerving in its intention to rock the floor. for a fresh treatment of >the dawn<, t. hands over the reins to woody, the legendary former resident dj at berlins e-werk and a true architect and soldier of the citys techno underground.the result is undoubtedly psychedelic, but the powerful, minimalist drum patterns and sheer production panache mean this will be a big hit with the feet and hips as much as the mind. this is a remix 12inch you cant afford to miss - two very different productions which will stimulate both cerebrally and physically. the dawn is here!

re-release of the 1995 classic album

new offshoot to the mean record label – serialism records - combining avant-garde sounds with a seasoned technique for all things minimal. in this case >dried lubricant ep< is an example of quality which doesnt follow the common flow. on this 4 tracker, the classic breed of techno is harmonically mixed up with the quirkiness of our time. a various artist ep which doesnt eave space for misunderstandings. on the a side young frenchman cesar merveille and his obscure melodies and liquid bass lines takes us on moody journey followed by italian rico casazza who plays ironically with our heads in a more funked up style. on the b side ekkohaus opens up the dancefloor with heavy breaks and chorused rim shots while the fourth track from the brainchild of techno producer grimes adhesif delivers an industrial 909 style loopy piece. grimes is the label owner of mind your head records, and has produced tracks which have received much recognition from major djs and artists such as ricardo villalobos

big with: dan curtin, gregor tresher, karotte, thomas schumacher, monika kruse.... fresh fried is a new project by chris wood, nedzad berovic and frank leicher. nedzad and frank have already made furore with their release on balkon records. the aside >50 ways< starts with an organic housegroove. during the song a minimal melody originates, which comes to its climax because of a clever arranged break and a pad that sounds like the old detroit tracks. hands up on every open air floor ! the b-side includes the titel >on my mind< in two different versions: chris b1 version shows us how deep beats and tricky vocals can work together, and comes after a short break with a warm baseline to a house appeal that stayes in your mind... the version from berovic & leicher is a little bit harder and more minimal. because of nice arranged beats and the drifting baseline this track has to be played at the clubs
