the latest release on two faces shows a slightly different side of the label and introduces the new artist björn leineweber. björn combines modern electronic clubmusic with rock and punk influences and his special german vocals to a very own style. the original mix of >dieser ton< shows his full talent for writing exceptional lyrics, beautiful harmonies and creating unique sound designs. a track with a lot of feelings. on a2 we find position:greenfield - an artist out of the label environment. he developed a remix with classic techno elements and unexpected variances. a track for the early morning hours to deeply touch the crowd. on the flip the label boss himself makes a very compact groovy floorburner. perhaps one of the hits in 2008 ... no more words needed

earlier support comes from ewan pearson, funk d void, satoshi tomi, tiger stripes, troy pierce, laurent garnier, danny howells and many more.. the tenth release from aus music is a tasty little bomb from sian to kick off the new year. graham goodwin aka sian is a dublin native raised gypsy style in southern spain. he released two albums and many singles on labels as diverse as pokerflat, dessous, karmarouge, dirtcrew and einmaleins. wear your scars like medals - has a very different vibe to sians first outing on aus, his lush, melodic >apple tree<. >wear your scars< is an all together darker, more brooding affair. with no bass line to speak of and sirens and toms carrying the majority of the melody this can be classed as a truly tribal excursion. roland appel remix - taking the pitch of sians sirens as the melodic starting point roland builds a hypnotic deep techno track that is reminiscent of early planet e releases.

powerful slammin grooves layered with cool ghost vocals, mixed support over the 2 mixes from paul van dyk, andy moor, nick warren and more

dj onionz needing no introduction to house heads, this prolific dj and producer began his career in the early 80s, playing parties in his native queens, nyc before taking his music across the globe. >play dat song< is an electronic jackin house monster with a bass hook that grooves throughout the track. it s latin tribal drums and electronic stabs cause mayhem on the floor and a cool vocal sample raises its head. >pokin u< has the same quality production and bass driven groove with great breakdowns and more of a techy vibe that would rock sets from carter to pete tong, whilst keeping the trademark onionz latin influences... limited backstock

jona is back with manta: a sick, expertly crafted new e.p. for get physical music. 24-year-old belgian jonathan troupin s true arrival on the house and techno block his debut 12- for get physical, the learnings. since then, he s chalked up another acclaimed e.p. for physical, tizia, not to mention assorted releases for labels like fumakilla and resopal red, and high profile remixes for michal ho, soffy o, daso and labelmates booka shade and m.a.n.d.y. jona doesn t mess about: title track manta immediately establishes itself as a no-holds-barred, peaktime club weapon, with a hard, pure-of-purpose kickdrum taking centre stage while kinetic drum edits and pressurized fx patter in, out and around it. a dizzying synth motif adds to an already mind-bending brew, while each successive build and drop ravishes the listener into submission. this is music to immerse yourself in, for sure, but above all it s music to really, really dance to. at this point you might expect the pace to let up, but b-side amon is a similarly hectic, energetic cut. all rolling bassline, acidic synth cycles, crisp percussion, jump-up vocal samples and surging narcotic effects, amon is a blast of magnificently controlled chaos for the party s more intense moments. the 12- draws to a close with exoplanet dub a no less formidable but certainly more spacious club track. its addictive, zig-zagging melodies reminding us of the more playful side to jona s music. with manta, jona furnishes us with three vehement yet elegant tracks guaranteed to turn a dancefloor near you inside out

the west flanders connections, the label owned byfred hush is up for its 3rd release, presenting partner noseda. the first track is called >x-or track< and presents kind of a music storm coming up where old school housey techno impresses with percussion layers. a fat bass bounces towards a very uplifting peak-time break. better get ready for its massive sound! the track was already compiled for a >10 days off< promo cd sampler. after huge response they decided to press the track on vinyl. flipside has >click clack<, a very deep electronic music dj–tool track, beginning in silence but the further you go the more party you get.

a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. we re gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut : ) just the way we like it... second release up is a taste of what s to come later in 2008 when we drop windsurfs debut album. these 4 tracks where initially planned for release on sentrall but where for some strange reason scrapped and made available as mp3 only. too sad as this is some of the finest heady downbeat electronic music to appear in the current baleric,cosmic blah blah blah call it what you want scene. windsurf consists of 1 part sorcerer and 1 part hatchback, both has records out on tirk and thisisnotanexit respectively and they ve also managed to deliever killer reworks of lcd soundsystem and shawn lee s ping pong orchestra(to be unleashed early 2008). crafting their own musical universeout of layers and layers of guitars and synths, never going for the obvious... well, im not gonna spend more time trying to convince you, check it out at wordandsound.de(paste in appropriate link here f.ex....)

call me mr cold blooded takes things to a shockingly new level. king cannibal (a new moniker for seasoned producer zilla), uses the essence of drum & bass by the likes of limewax, spl, technical itch and re-works the sound into a breakstep epic. the 2nd track one hundred eyes closed is loosely dubstep but goes somewhere darker and more twisted...

gavin herlihy has long been one of dance musics most respected journalists and djs, and with two acclaimed releases on mood music last year and more recently a brace of top-drawer remixes for unkle and alexkid, hes fast becoming one of its hottest producers. freshly relocated to berlin, his debut 12inch for kindisch, >opium haze<, confirms his status as a skilled and innovative player on the house and techno scene. >opium haze< is as heady and intoxicating as its title implies, an effortlessly psychedelic piece of music thats nonetheless firmly rooted on the dancefloor. it begins with a clicky, funked-up conga tattoo cloaked in disorienting effects which partly obscure the jazzy melody rising up from the mixs depths. out of that sticky, dubby fug emerges an insistent, upward-tripping piano line and synthesized string stabs - together forming the kind of rave-ready hook that will cause immediate damage in the club. herlihy is superbly heavy on the edit, using an eastern woodwind sample, disembodied voices and various percussive elements to deliver build after build, drop after explosive drop. >opium haze< is a hugely satisfying piece of music, and a club anthem-in-waiting. >professional exit< is a more stripped-down but no less accomplished affair, driven by a warm, rippling bassline and phased electronics. before the percussion intesifies and interlocks, offsetting a sparse one-note synth line which hangs in the air, thickening it with understated drama. at once seductive and unsettling, experimental and club-oriented, >professional exit< is indeed a professional end to a highly professional 12inch

>grandbend< was considered by many to be the dreamiest and deepest track from the deepchord catalogue. a classic example of the sound that dc defined. the 2500 mastertape has been unearthed and threaded-up one more time for echospace 005. massive, billowing plumes of sound. undulating masses of smoky haze, muffled kicks, and murky sub bass. this double pack includes the original (re-mastered), and features new mixes from echospace, cv313 & an updated mix from deepchords rod modell. ultra ltd edition: 1000 copies (not to be repressed)

thrash metal is still alive. something for those who like it evil, dirty and fast

rebekahs second instalment on criminal records is a 2 track ep. moving flawlessly into techno with 2 beautifully crafted pieces, freakonomics is a deep work out of sub heavy bongos, a haunting melodic synth line and stripped riding percussion with layers of effects building into an atmospheric breakdown. neo is more up-tempo with shuffling percussion and rolling bass that leads into deep rich synth stabs. radio 1 was quick to pick up neo airing it on mistress de funk s residency show last week and both tracks are gaining huge support from the likes of funk d void, greg vickers, mark knight and yousef

more slamming electrohouse madness

limited to 200 copies !! another killer from monsieur renault. more awesome midtempo italo business. super spacey, super stompy and very strong. with plenty more like this in the pipeline, it looks like mr. renault will be keeping them coming for a while to come yet.
