iron curtis pieces originate in a place simultaneously tuned to the sounds of detroit, chicago and hamburg. in his home town of nürnberg, johannes paluka is more familiarly known under his surname, which he goes by at the turntable. intertwining deep-house with soulful techno in a disturbingly enchanting manner, his sound moves in the equilibrium of reduced, but never minimal. flashes of kitsch brighten the dark universe of iron curtis, but fail to interfere with the melancholy subtext. profound music for the dance floor!

when we first started thinking about the compilation, we had in mind the idea to put together a great minimal techno selection with stuff from the early 90s, which really inspired us, like robert hood, dan bell, plastikman, pansonic and mike ink to name a few. whilst working on the project we had the feeling that there is so much more great and influential minimal music from way before the techno thing started. so we were very excited to combine the music from the electronic pioneers, with the tracks from the minimal techno godfathers in a very modern way. in minimal music there is so much (space) in between the sounds and the space that gives you a lot of opportunities for an own interpretation. the grandfather paradox is a scientific theory about time travelling and was first described by the science fiction writer rene barjavel in his book - le voyageur imprudent. we took suggestions out of that because we felt like we are travelling back in time and manipulating the old music with modern knowledge. the fact that we did all this with the deserved respect to the originals makes us quite sure that the results are bringing something new and interesting to the old tracks and transport the past into the here and now. - henrik schwarz, ?e & dixon

brill floating minimal electronic tech techtracks !! limited backstock

catchy minimal.. jatoa002 is the second release from the danish label jatounit. binar sendentar is a mellow straight forward track smothered in glitches and industrial mishaps. accompanied by a female voice - a constant reminder that it is all numbers. beautiful staircase is an orgy of pretzel popping, toy car bashing and wrench crashing glitchy pads. accompanied by harmonica stabs. suddenly a trancy pad surrounds you and lifts you up and literately drops you in a hole of obscurity and insane analog bastardism.

swoosh was without doubt a major underground hit in 2008 with top10 positions in all sales and dj charts. the best possible base for phunklarique & pierce to team up again this year with a massive followup named womba to continue their journey on yellow tail. plays by gorge. harada, plstik funk, ... again, it s kind of a split ep, with two totally different versions of the same idea - creating atmospheric grooves with each their unique style that has individually brought them support from all over the globe. phunklarique concentrates more on the minimal side of electronics with deep bass, a sick leadline and stabs that continuously build up in a very hypnotic way, while pierce gives it a slick, but modern housy groove with sirenlike horn sounds. we have been testing these out on the floor for quite a few weeks with amazing results, so check it out and see what it does for yourself

already supported by johnny d., someone else, laurent garnier, jennifer cardini, florian meindl, david keno.. erich lesovsky is the newest addition to stil vor talents exciting artist roster. here comes someone who is totally fascinated and absorbed by technology, someone who only performs as a live act in the clubs and - in the time of digital machinery - still works on constructing his own devices to make music with. after singles for wba and keno records, it is now the time for his first release on oliver koletzkis stil vor talent imprint and mr. lesovsky is very happy to be part of the family. so are we, of course! not only, but also because his first ep is a killer display of musical wizardry. it stars off with >bell a donna<, a minimal funk-laden piece of music that is mainly based on some crisp beats, many warm effects and sounds and a melody so simple, yet so encapsulating to capture the heart of every dancer in the club. this is oldskool minimal funk at its best! next up is >93 percent<, a title that might be misleading at first, because this track sounds more like 150 percent really. a great loop made of fidgety techno hi-hats and some wonderful warm analogue sounds - this could well be termed a new form of fidget techno. last up is >riot beatz<, an experimental display of minimal sound design, yet still very danceable. lots of crystal bashing beats, a pumping bass and many little effects - this will definitely be one for the dancefloor in the morning hours. not only does e. lesovsky seem a master of sound, his expertise seems to cover the perfect creation of warm, yet basic tech anthems and his influences seem to come from all sorts of musical directions, from hip-hop to funk to house back to techno. it is the easiness with which he delivers his music that makes his sound designs so special!
