itokim, aka tendo-based producer takuro ito, aligns with dj bone s subject detroit label with the subject japan: rhythm poems ep and his opening gambit certainly leaves a dent. -motechnique- has been a staple of bone s 3 deck attacks in recent months and it will have eyebrows raised and mouths open from the off. weighty but warm kicks start as they mean to go on, bursting with pace and vigour as thrusts and stabs pinprick the brooding chords. the laidback, easy-going connotations of the title to -roll up and shine- are very much the ethos and aesthetic of the production, as a playful, bubbling melody sets a warm and almost sugary tone from the off before being bolstered by a suave melange of full-bodied kick and dexterous percussion. itokim rounds off his first outing on subject detroit with -the mood device-, a to the point groover that melds elements of the previous productions to stunning effect. a genuine builder of a track with a straight and true trajectory, -the mood device- melds innumerable coatings of percussion and synth as stabs are layered and layered again, clotting and coagulating the composition in to one delightfully deep and multidimensional slice of formidable dancefloor composite.

andré winter delivers his second exclusive ideal audio release – dogma. it is dark, it is hypnotic, it is what we call modern techno music. on the a-side you can find the original, which amazes with the number of sequences, which mr. winter twists and turns.beats and rhythms clash one after the other creating a mysterious and threatening, yet curious atmosphere. just close your eyes and enjoy the mood ride. the b-side offers pan-pots treatment of the track. the remix is massive, somewhat housier and brings exciting sound effects to the surface. great work

with his previous releases on nervous, hotfingers and frequenza, angel stoxx is on our map since a long time. he brings us two house party slammers par excelence. the perfect mood for our summer vibes. as a remixer we could win our favourite clown from brighton: enzo siffredi who brings us a deeper version of hoola high with a lovely bassline. the second remix comes from deep bros & monodeluxe. they strip down the original to the main elements, add a nice guitar and create a sexy house track. get your cocktails and put on your sunglasses.

as our true fans know, every now and then we leave our comfort zone to bring something else than techno. this season, we gave dib from italy the honor to be the unusual one. three tracks, three times basic, stripped down house that does well as a tool or a track in the early or deep hours of the night. or just for those people working hard at the office and wanting some deep house during their officework. all tracks have a very old skool vibe to it and breathe true deep house: not the filtered down vocal kind, but the breed that just lets a 909, 808 shine and some rhodes or warm analogue synths do the work. the first one is rather detroitish - with a nice acid stab and some strings setting the mood, the second one is more dance floor oriented and the third version is a bit of both. does it need to be said that dimitri andreas mastered it again? and that it is available on vinyl?

those expert ears at aficionado work their magic once again to coax two stunning sounds out of the aether and into the warmth and comfort of a 12 inch. harnessing the power of the international balearic brotherhood, nado sought out these sublime frequencies from italian sorcerers tempelhof and transmitted them directly into our lives. freshly inspired from recording an album with ambient maestro gigi masin, the mantuan duo deliver two pieces united in quality but diverse in mood. on this 12 inch tempelhof take us on a one way journey to emotional release, flying first class with all the perks. officially aficionado.

limited edition of 300 numbered copies on colored vinyl: 1st record white with black splatters, 2nd record transparent with black splatters.
ah the humble double pack, isnt there something so very satisfying about this format? sccucci manucci evidently thinks so as the nine bows ep is the labels second release in succession to embrace the double pack. it s another high profile cast that contribute to the eight tracks here, with montel, mikki funk, jackson ryland and aashton all featuring. it is the latter, brighton-based producer who opens proceedings with *i cant shake it*, a summer house anthem in the making that showcases his love of a classic rnb vocal. maverick follows with *wait for u* which is not only his sccucci debut but also the parisian s first production committed to wax - hard to believe! the mood swings through various shades of house from here with *lemme hold u* from montel a mid point highlight thanks to a killer vocal hook.

the fourth ep from raw waxes includes two tracks from the noisemaker, italian producer already on fire during the last years. both original tracks have got a delightful groovy soul, amplified by a dark arpeggio, which drives strong energy in stomach and legs of the listeners. the sounds he choses are captivating, dynamic, and push feelings to an high vitality. the deepness of the original tracks is perfectly interpreted by the remixers, who kept his mood and added a personal touch to it. on the a side, mike parker keeps a sinister atmosphere and beautifies it with noisy and raw sounds, which coherently distinguish his productions from many others. on the b side, haiku develops mostly the dance floor mood of the original track with an upbeat based production going through mind trip breaks and industrial pads, giving to the entire release a summer breathe.

hound scales latest batch of tracks looks forward, and the shit they see is not to their liking. tearing down and rebuilding, the effect of world war on romantic relationships, committing horrible acts with your mind. ruff pod, humanoid huey p, clock deux vaux aux, dj oddzone, android wekua, horace andromeda, half-reptilian husalah, soylent greenaway, mood ii mach iii, twice un-dead bill ayers, ur squadron, and a wax statue of dieter roth are the heroes here so mother fuck mark wahlberg

scuba continues his phenix series with a second installment entirely devoid of the euphoric hallmarks of the personality era but missing none of the familiar attitude. no trace of vocals, feel-good chords or retro kicks, no real concern for the hour or room, phenix 2 is instead teeming with mood and spirit.

after releasing the highly praised 5 years of quanticman records, the romanian techno based returns with a 4 track various artists called persons of interest.1. adrianho , lukas & merlin , penga - tristesse. tristesse is the perfect mood setter.

compound trax vol. 1 md is the first from our trax releases and its a split ep between ernie (minuendo recordings, deep explorer) and jorge caiado (balance, groovement).

holdie gawn & micawber are back with sylphe06: once again working around their usual split format. holdie gawns * moon ride* is a haunting, melancholic trip in a deep mood, that stretches slowly and steadily over 12 minutes in a journey of enchanted synths and micro-grooves. over to the b side we have * vattum* by micawber, a solid, stopming techo affair with a large, deep bassline & kikcdrum, resonating and pulsating slowly. on top crispy rides, hats & glitches accompany the groove slowly, making this ep a fine comdination between two very different yet effective tracks for the mind and the dancefloor.

superb new release from noisebuilder, full groove and progressive. incuding a mayday 2014 remix in the mood of some miss kittin style. superb.

gynoid audio, one of the few female labels around, started her course in 2010. she s now one of the most prolific labels when it comes to a variety of functional techno, with focus on drive, mood, dirt and depth. the amount of well-established veterans (both old and new) who released or remixed for the label, or newcomers who saw their career start on gynoid, is impressive. it also describes why its one of the most charted labels in it s field of operation. to celebrate the mains series 100th release and the continuance of the label we decided to preset a massive va compilation spanning over three releases. here is a limited green vinyl of the second volume from the 100th compilation, featuring brand new tracks by audio injection, black hats, mattias fridell, rraph.

mrcarter continues the tour of vinyl with tasticfunk...with an amazing emanuel satie remix we go hard into the groove mood! highly recommended

this release sees ante perry team up with a host of names in his very own studio in dortmund. first up belgian artist maxim lany is the first to accompany him in a deeply warm number named honigmitmais , a track possessing a sullen resonating sub-bass and romantic piano stabs with male vocal coos scattered throughout. xtc1 with german artist dirty doering then shifts the mood, dominated by a low-end unmistakably perry with the addition of pitched down vocals and eerie atmospherics make for a trippier track altogether.

after a long break of releasing music on eintakts sublabel * rare* we are happy to present the comeback with the new rare vinyl, produced by bendejo. the things you do ep combines tracks with a chordy deephouse mood and classical, maybe even a bit experimental ideas. the splendid voice of irina radovic, who benne met at a recording of her band at university rounds up the house vibes and gives tracks for the dance floor (things you do, dont care) whilst dubidu and ecpecially autumn afternoon make you feel rather dreamy, still having the house groove going on.

for its first album project, shipwrec is to release a new full-length album from pioneering electronic producer dmx krew entitled shape shifting shaman with colourful artwork by doppeldenk.

second release from relapso records where the host brings new fresh techno in is own way, using a reat 909 groove and raw mood in the sounds.

rene bourgeois and andy kohlmann are striking back on rennbahn. packed with catchy melodies, a fat powerful bassline and deep vocals they created a perfect mixture of open air and club sounds. philip bader comes along with a huge remix. in combining the intense mood of the track with some dark vocals, hes pushing you directly forward to the top of the dance floor. a quite more experimental remix is given to you by bruno pronsato – for lovers of the classic minimal stuff. early support by: dubfire, anja schneider, hot since 82, super flu, blond:ish, yousef etc.

hailing from bari, nico lahs has become a beloved member of the stock5 family. on the latest instalment of the label that guy blesses us with his runway ep. but don’t mix up the title with some anorexic chicks that stumble along the catwalk heidi klum sent ‘em on. if there is one direction, it would lead straight into a planetary orbit. the opener “shreder” sets the pace and mood, a decent composition of pulsating synths, a vibrating bass line and a whispering voice, telling us to fasten our seatbelt because our next stop is going to be “orion”. actually this is in one of the biggest astral objects having been discovered yet. nico takes us there on his spaced out trip, while we are watching stars being born and dying in super novas. on the flip we’re finally approaching “runway” the title track. dive into a world that is undiscovered, promising and overwhelming. all in all this ep is way more than “mystic”, which is the last track. we left our planet as humans and we landed as androids in stock5 galaxy, which is ever expanding, crossing boundaries and creating new life on the universal dance floor.

after several months of -silence-, downbeat is here again. the 3 chairs member, marcellus pittman is the man responsible for -do you like music ep-. -our time is now- and -extra credit-, are two detroit-flavoured house tracks with sequences coming from mars and melancholic keys with the unmistakable marcellus pittman mood. the release is closed by -happy to be here-, a gloomy downbeat-hip hop track made with mpc.

the legendary tony rohr graces phobiq with his presence and offers two tracks alongside his new partner-in-crime layton giordani. the ep starts out with the sparse arrangement of -careless suggestions-, driven by a locomotive bassline and grinding rhythm section. moody stabs reinforce the bleak vibe, and the vocals coming at us from otherworldly black holes only add to the mood. label boss sasha carassi steps up for the remix in his trademarked stomping style, making use of hypnotic elements and the busy claps from the original. industrial-sounding hi-hat action drives his interpretation all the way home, after an apocalyptic breakdown, of course. on -reggae shiz- things are more stripped-down with bare drums holding everything together, as the rest of the arsenal slowly builds around menacing chords and a rocksteady groove. behind the spotlight, liquid bass comes together with quirky percussion to complete this almost-10-minute-long opus. dema maintains a sublime, shadowy mood in his version but opts for busier hats and heavier usage of chords.

since his debut in 2009, loops haunt has continued to confound and excite with an output as mercurial as it is rare. toying with jungle and hip hop on zenith and outright sound design on ark, the wilderness-bound beat alchemist uses his isolation to explore and even create his otherworldly sound palate. lurking behind immaculate drums are the windswept sounds of the desolate north and mechanized textures plucked from his father s own workshop. here we embark on loops most complete work to date. exits is designed to be listened to as one continuous track, opening with ambient mood and emotion, layering outboard synths and found-sounds on the title track and trap door. an unexpected calm beginning is shattered in the second act with the pounding rhythms and industrial heart beats of howl and iiva. exits is an insight into a uniquely unpredictable talent and rare chance to be immersed in his sound.

sea levels is the brand new ep from andy donnelly aka kloke. a recent graduate of red bull music academy new york and british ex-pat marooned in melbourne for the past decade, donnelly distills the urban groove and bucolic mood of his heritage through the vibrancy of his new environs into a wholly unique soundscape.

kiwanuka, a 25 year-old uk native of ugandan heritage, was raised in north london where he split his time between session work and local gigs. along the way, having found footing as a solo artist, he was signed to communion records, then polydor, and has since performed throughout europe and north america too touring in direct support of adele. he made his way through nashville this past summer with just enough pause and aplomb to commit these morsels to tape. the a-side *you ve got nothing to lose* is an original composition, featuring the buzzards dominic davis on upright bass and cory younts on piano, joined also by fellow balladeer lillie mae rische on fiddle. their contributions transform his work into a stone-cold groove with almost orchestral underpinnings, making it a fitting extension of their previous blue series. the single also features a chilling rendition of townes van zandts infamous *waitin round to die* on the b-side, the perfect compliment to the timbre and mood of the a-side.

with *closer* masterton debuts on blackfoxmusics 19th release (bfm019). *closer* is a warm track with a deep groove and beautiful melodies. it relates to living in a long distance relationship and overcoming a lack of proximity.
robert babicz (babiczstyle, systematic, bedrock records) created an incredible remix. he used lots of the original melodies, combined them with new elements, added rolling drums and a thick bassline to give the track the extra drive. his remix became a constant part of his live sets and was debuted with great response at grelle forelle (vienna) and ritter butzke (berlin).
channel x (stil vor talent) remixed *closer* into a pretty cool and clubby deep house track. you can feel their berlin origin when listening to the groovy bassline with variations of the melody. finally the breaks capture the mood of the dissonant sounds from the original track.

vinyl only - limited edition 180 gram pressing! >reforming digital waves by simple & elegant music patterns< - a straightforward mission statement for a new imprint, and one whose understated, direct manner shows the music-centered focus of wavereform as we reveal our first release. the >new sky< ep is the production debut of a mysterious new russian talent known as ivanov, and about whom little is known past his reclusive buddhist existence and his background in guitar, which is clearly evident on the title track. underlain by rising and falling atmospheric washes and understated percussion, >new sky< is propelled by a funky, jazzy and clearly organic keyboard solo that closely approximates his familiar stringed instrument in texture, tone, and musical development. next up is minimal legend soulphiction, who masterfully beefs up the original with a fat, growling bassline and more aggressive, hard hitting drums and claps that take the dreamy mood of ivanovs track and transform it into something more cosmic and psychedelic while retaining its musicality. on the flip, a new tune entitled >deep< gets revisited by lucidflow label heads klartraum, who have recently shifted their digital imprint to vinyl. here they bring things towards the dubbier end of the spectrum with a slow-building track that goes from hazy beginnings to an ominous, dramatic breakdown and then into a harder grooving second half. taken together, these three tracks are an auspicious beginning for a new name and label, and in fulfilling the stated goals offer great promise of things to come.

we’re really excited about this unusual ep from the unusually talented photomachine, his first outing on wicked bass. ‘black motorcycle’ a dark but deep number, measuredly working its way down into to a solid groove before it lifts its eyes skyward for a breakdown made up of delicate synthwork. ‘good news…bad dope’ is a more skittish cut, with its percussive elements laying low in the mix, whilst circling synths provide a menacing mood that juxtaposes itself with a well-placed vocal sample.

completely unique music in its own cosmos, the first long player from the sibylline panoram. experiments in evocative soundscapes, minimal rhythms and mood. hand printed sleeves. tipped on heavyweight card sleeve. screen printed by house of traps. no repress, limited edition, download code included.

in recent times soul notes tilted a little towards more groove driven, distortion ladenmachine funk. snx001 is the missing release out of the snx series thus far. label head honcho kastil joins up with cologne based adryiano, who is quickly becoming one of the labels favorite household names. the signature snx sounds is developing into a dark psych-oriented club sound which this ep represents as never before. the opening track *snakes and holes* is pure percussive machinery with the heaviest overdriven kickdrums you will ever hear. on the a2, adryiano sets the mood with a low swinging bass and some eardrum deafening kicks which progresses into the b1 which is perced out to the max with some 303 bassline drama and distortion to top that off. for the b2 track, head honcho kastil shows off some lo-fi drum action on controversy.

dream states of lust and lucidity, slow to speaks latest reissue of house musics halcyon years comes courtesy of mood ii swings visionary lem springsteen. originally released on the eightball sublabel empire state records in 1994, these excursionary landmarks saw springsteen bid farewell to his usual club-saturated exercises in queeny house euphoria for a hallucinatory breach into a secret realm of desire, where the whispers of a long-forgotten hunger meld with the floating synth-work of a true practitioner of the sacred art of club music. this is the soundtrack to the chill-out room of your unconsciouss kaleidoscopic sex dream, the sweet synth lines of springsteens ritual music still floating in your mind as you awake, alas, a little too soon. fear not: this dyonisian masterpiece is once more available thanks to the good spirits at dope jams, who remind you, *whatever the eye sees and covets, let the hand grasp!* not without asking (or paying) first, of course.

recorded summer/fall of 2008 and originally released in january 2009 this gem has been open to a only very close circle of people only yet. the main idea was to have a bunch of short tracks with a soundtrack mood and a slight taste of early 4ad and factory records (or as frans de waard noticed alot of les disques du crepuscule and even early human league which i admit i adore). a must for fans of the pop ambient series, max richter or type records. limited coloured vinyl edition.

acclaimed for many of his compositions on labels such as aesthetic audio, art, ornate, alongside his blistering dj performances. aer boss miles drops the labels first and his debut album. deep is a word often used to describe a lot of music currently out there, but not many touch the depths of this superb lp on atmospheric existence. miles touches on many shades of sound with his trademark emotive warmth. melancholy but positive vibrations flow out alongside abstract grooves. hypnotic elements grace the journey, creating an otherworldy sense of space and distant unknown entities. feeling & mood leap out of this lp at every twist and unexpected turn, circumnavigating the deep spectrum. since his early releases, his imprint aer has become a highly respected imprint globally with a dedicated following. this lp was constructed to stand the test of time and stand it does, firmly rooted in the cosmos
