since day one, radiq has been showing an affinity for the afro-centric funkiness and carefully-honed sound design of modern days minimal music. as in many of his previous tracks, all six songs of >vida noir< has this certain kind of unyielding quality - long, hypnotic grooves with muted kick drum set the stage for more emancipated experiments in texture and sound design. on >a long hot summer break<, for example, the effect is utterly obvious as kicking its ass into gear with syncopated drums and strain of warm chords before animated vocal sample slips in like fingerprint. while deeply seductive interplay of those chugging percussion gives way to delighted horn of >a-dieu<, warm chord and acoustic guitar of >calling< is perfect example for radiq’s masterful sound and texture. >machine codes modified< has rather restrained structure for him, but tightly woven drums speaks eloquently about its carefully arranged funkiness and dance floor functionality. despite their repetitiveness, its surprising how well these productions forming cohesive solidarity as an album. presumably, it owes a lot to wide tonal vocabulary which is radiqs hallmark - these tracks has something concentrated, vivid qualities. this album sits just at the edge of the dance floor, but also performs its exceptional strength on intense home listening. dusky synth and truncated surge of bass of >vida noir< constructing something dark, before closing this album with modulated afro-acoustic guitar and deep falsetto voice (by the producer himself) of >rondo<. this album offers up an engaging and comprehensive amalgamation from the inquisitive sound by the maestro

bristolian dream team, waifs & strays vs. lukas meets chicago legend, dj sneak sums up the next jackathon jams package from queen of the scene, heidi. loaded with bleeps, bumps and bass, aside >gimme love< is driven by its disco chugging bassline and low slung groove, while the >stokes croft dub< version gives the track a warped, stoned haze. second original dance me (dance you) combines heavy low end with more 90s female vox swagger and dj sneak delivers his unmistakable funked up chicago style in a rendition of gimme luv with strains of boogie.

authentic pew presents with its fourth release the debut of the collaboration between angel costa & attemporal under the moniker attac. forcing rhythms and well chosen acid ingredients open a wide space for a hypnotising mindtrip. the following remix by perthil & aerts reinvents the previous elements more to the floor. as patria from paris focussing on their 9-minutes-journey the deeper shades of techno, before tomohiko sagae breaks it all down with industrial noises and terrifying beats.

the 12 track album was written and produced since the turn of 2013 and mixed with erol alkan at the phantasy sound, the labels own studio in london. a difficult trick to master but like carl craigs more songs about food and revolutionary art, plastikmans consumed or more recently the work of four tet, the album works as a cohesive whole rather than a disparate collection of tracks

last known trajectory proudly presents inkamera, the solo project of the multi-talented victoria lukas, who of course you may well be familiar with from her previous work as zerkalo, performing alongside the legendary gerald donald. here, the first inkamera release demonstrates victoria’s clear understanding of what constitutes a solid and balanced musical project – ‘superpartners (photon photino) ‘ and ‘&#1089,,,&#1084,,,&#1077,,,&#1088,,,&#1090,,,&#1100,,, &#1085,,,&#1077,,, &#1089,,,&#1091,,,&#1097,,,&#1077,,,&#1089,,,&#1090,,,&#1074,,,&#1091,,,&#1077,,,&#1090,,, (death doesn’t exist) ‘ are both pacey, electro drivers with a distinct european feel, the former being quite upbeat, while the latter rendering a slightly darker more sinister air. ‘i can speak’ provides a volatile contrast with its crazy, freestyle electro beats and rhythms, whilst both ‘human terms’ and ‘potentia’ showcase victoria’s quite distinctive, totally unmistakable, seductively hypnotic vocal to a backdrop of gorgeous electronics. a superb solo debut from lukas – let us hope that there are many more to follow.

spanish talented artist eduardo de la calle who release on superwax rec, mentalgroove and name a few... we loved his latest release on cadenza. its hypnotic minimal but quite musical. it reminds me early villalobos. on a side, the ranchors time is timeless hypnotic techno.on b side, both tracks are more berlin house style. they are for the fan of kink or levon vincent stuff. we are very happy with this 12inch, hope you enjoy!

more tracks selected by the running back head honcho, gerd janson, for our continuing music for autobahns series. this 12inch includes tracks previously only on the cd release plus some exclusives varied and roadworthy electronics that can also be used in cycle lanes and footpaths...tip!

the beats have an edge, the chords are not trying too hard, the composition is perfectly crafted to hit all the right spots. when that crowd is thirsty for more heat, pull out this record, drop one of the tracks and watch everyone go wild!

part 2 of the compilation series inspired by pop art artist charles wilp. the album features 8 extremely wanted cosmic, psychedelic disco productions from the 1970s and 1980s. kristian schultzes zyklonentanz is a captain future styled disco tune from 1980, never commercially released before.limited gimmicks cover edition (4 printed sides round foldout cover, designed by chrisse kunst). expensive, but worth the money!

the >baumgartner< release marks the third solo ep by van bonn after his >maserung/schwerpunkt< and >onwards< on telrae in 2012. so it was high time for another solo release with him. his new track is again a timeless classic, gracefully flowing without much of an interruption, it is his most melodic release up until now. the track is nevertheless very much detached in style from what van bonn has released solo and together with stefan gubatz on telrae. the track is at ease and at the same time connects to a feeling of melancholy. marko fürstenberg wrote the remix on the flip side transforming the original into a tight and bass heavy dub track. marko breaks with the flow of the original and creates a much more rigorous dance flloor rocker that introduces one element after the other. this is not for the weak and for bass lovers only!

using a handful of production aliases, the spanish producer has been dishing out dark-tinted techno since the early 00s, often releasing on his own mental disorder imprint. his most prolific moniker is reeko, with which hes put out some three dozen records. his relatively more recent work as architectural, meanwhile, has been highlighted by a few appearances on semantica, including the 2012 solo release peacetime-a track from that one, looking ahead, earned a place in norman nodges berghain 06 mix for ostgut ton.

gone too long from rising duo him_self_her is a bonafide bomb - house with feeling and a massive bassline and killer vocal from kieran fowkes. reinvigorated by crosstown rebels for a re-release after it came out on mexican label cream couture last year, this time the infectious original comes backed with remixes from belgian hero compuphonic, who injects more bounce, bleeps and emotive melody and the mighty yousef whos darker circus rework is a deep affair of rolling drums and dubby textures

first release for the newcomer athens based recording label lower parts. tendts first ep slow years is a musical journey. a journey full of disbelief, experimentation and questions. nostalgic in the beginning, with slow chopped up beats, samples that play their part right by creating an atmosphere and suppressed bass that lie hidden in the back. as we come one step closer to reach the end of our journey the landscape starts to transform. the sound becomes a bit more static with intense need for self-criticism. melodies start moving spasmodically full of errors in a faulty random route. stacked on top of each other, they are trying obsessively to keep up with the flow until they reach climax, if they will ever do. 200 pieces cut / hand stamped labels in a printed recycled fine carton. artwork by tendts

lab.our musics second release showcases more home-grown talent with 2 tracks by up and comer maxwell church. as a founding member of toronto techno night the deep north, max already has releases under his own name and as one half of the hermans, but this marks his first release on vinyl. lab.our 02 offers 2 raw techno tracks in one day and twizzled. one day is a late-night stomper, moving in and out of changing synth patterns while twizzled is an acid workout that changes up when synth stabs come in the middle of the track.

after the excellent reception of the first instalment, ander-trax is back yet again with more supremely crafted tracks from label head and all round gentleman alex-ander. nobody really expected such talent to emanate from coatbridge, did they? then again, wasnt the fella responsible for that blueboy *remember me* thing from coatbridge? maybe that was airdrie.

with *voltaire* causing upset with club sound system engineers worldwide as feral youths wile away into a sensory-overload downward spiral and *heron blue* making hints towards dillinjas take on strontium jazz this 12 inch is undoubtedly going to upset you. that is why we think you should take a punt and buy it.

but that the cocoon compilation l is all about love, is beyond debate: the love for electronic dance music, for its complexity and its diversity, the love for this global musical language and last not least the enthusiasm for the well-known and the still non-famous protagonists of this tonal romance that faithfully accompanies us through night and day for more than 30 years now.

major people is a new label from santiago salazar. the debut track *new beginnings* is more of a theme song for salazar as he introduces the major people label. modulating synthes can be heard throughout the track and the catchy bassline will warm any dance floor.
*technik* is a slice of sleek, contemplative techno that is far out on a late-night tip, leaving only a bouncing bassline and skipping tech-house beat to hold down the groove amongst the tune’s more ethereal sounds. on the remix, chicagos defend:r (ricardo mirandas alter-ego) takes apart the original to form a hybrid electro style remix laced with sub bass grooves and just the right amount of synths to take it to the next level.
this is the beginning of much more to come from major people.

now the italian duo find themselves in london, joining forces with touchin bass to weave together a damn fine four track ep which aims to mix a combination of styles from downtempo, dark, brooding beats to more compelling rhythms which have the capacity to make you dance... plasters sound is impressively textured with rich eclectic tones. it is simple but effective, showing different emotions, tempos and styles.
look no further... this ep will draw you in, chew you up and spit you out, but you will be all the better for it.

more techno-house hybrids from the australian based crew, sticking with the family oriented approach. baby, don t you sounds like something we ve grown to expect of freddie norwood, approachable and female friendly, with a hefty injection of muscle in the bottom end. lies rides out a peculiar and twisted groove up the climax, what happens after that is up to you. mic mills hits strong with the disco-not-disco moretti. mbm round things out with the bong song, suitable for dance floors and communions alike

the modern classic and piano centred album xine on mojuba sublabel wandering was marking the debut by the talented sven weisemann in 2009 and remains relevant until today. with his new and second album inner motions he is focussing more on emotional club compatible tracks but does not lose sight of the demanding home listener at all.

samuli kemppi played live twice at suicide circus, and since his energetic sound really fit well with our club, we started talking to each other about a release on our dark series imprint. so here we go now, after releases on labels such as prologue, mote evolver and perc trax, samuli kemppi now is ready to rock your boat with three tracks on our label, which define a very particular sound of their own. last day on earth brings samulis apocalyptic vision to the dancefloors. dark hisses, well scaped spaces and a hookline with the pull of a spacecraft make up for a track that with no doubt will be one of the techno anthems of the next months. a killer of a track! on the b-side spacing has similar sound aesthetics as last day on earth, but comes along more playful whereas calling approaches the apocalyptic theme from a very different angle. bleepy synths over a banging beat let you think of laser shots in the dark, haunting and scary.

following on from the jtc 12 inch earlier in the year. hoya:hoya return with a 3 track ep from altered natives the a side is an completely unapologetic club banger which was swiftly signed after seeing the reaction to it when danny native opened his set with it at the club. the b side offers 2 slightly more experimental, yet still hard hitting tracks.

after three sold out releases on gamm the edit king the reflex is back with vol.4 in his re-vision series! this time around he goes slightly more rare groove-ish than before with three amazing re-edits.
first up blood sweat & tears gets a breakbeat rework that kills the original by the miles if you ask us. the dope jazz brake in the middle is extra nice.
to follow up we go on a funky blues trip on *gone is the thrill* and last but not least a hot (!) ohio players jam gets funked up to the max.
the reflex and gamm have done it again!
