hauke freer (session victim) rmx . quality house music for your dancefloor! that is the slogan of the newly formed label >foul & sunk<. the label is focusing his attention on soulful clubmusic in all its facets, which is primarily focused on the dancefloors of this world. for the first release could be obtained directly one of the most innovative producers in terms of classic house music with the italian shooting star nicholas. after releases on labels such as >no more hits<, >its a small world disco< and >4 lux< of the italians now delivers the next stroke of genius! nicholas tracks operate entirely clear on the history of house, but never forgetting the contemporary look. his tunes sound as fresh, exciting and new, of course, work well on any dancefloor in the world. >when i think about< is classic house at its best: raw and dirty! responsible for the remix to hauke freer, one half of the berlin duo >session victim<. hauke freer takes out the tempo of the song without taking the tension. it is through the very early break in the track that builds to a real slo-mo house slider. the perfect start to a great club night.

quality reissue of the mega-rare blow up records release of the italo masterpiece pink footpath by loui$. originally released in 1985, this gem has become one of the most highly sought after italo disco tracks around. on the a side is magic dance which is good, but it’s the instrumental version of the track pink footpath that really gets the disco djs drooling. with its killer analogue b-line, dreamy synths and balearic guitar riffs, its easy to see why it became such an anthem at the early ibiza parties as well as a late night favourite in chicago and new york. highly recommended.

***vinyl only*** some of you might know nycs marcos cabral from his work as half the duo runaway. together with jacques renault, runaway has stacked up a slew of releases and remixes over the past few years. the labels theyve worked for include, dfa, rekids, wurst music co, chinatown, im a cliche, crue-l, mule, endless flight, need want, fina, solar disco, aus, under the shade, plant music, turntable lab, spectral, playout, permanent vacation, nervous, ohm, tartelet, and their very own label on the prowl. their resume is very telling of their musical abilities. this year, marcos has decided to push the envelope even further and create something a bit more personally reflective…his new label hamilton dance records. just as the label artwork foreshadows, the presentation becomes blurred. edits, originals, creative sampling, its all lumped together with a certain vision. special dance-floor tools being the most obvious

canadas cobblestone jazz have established themselves as one of the most unique and inspiring bands of the past decade. thanks to their exploration of house through the eyes of a jazz improv group, their music is derived from the organic energy of the groups jam sessions and their now legendary live performances. comprised of members tyger dhula, mathew jonson, danuel tate along with newest addition the mole, cobblestone jazz are as accomplished individually as musicians and performers as they are a band - united by long term friendship, respect and passion for writing music in the moment. their decade long history of releases on iswhatitis, !k7 and wagon repair have earned the praise and long time support from the likes of gilles peterson, carl craig, luciano and sven väth. >memories (from where we are)< celebrates the first of a series of 12 inch releases that will come out on wagon repair over the course of 2011/12. the outcome of a berlin jam session last fall, the band incorporated a fender rhodes, vocoder, and sh-101 to make up the core voicing of the tracks while a cs-20 provides the drive at the end of both. in typical cobblestone jazz fashion, the track was mixed live with no prior sequencing arrangement. the session was then cut by the mole into two sublime edits - the results could be their strongest release since >dump truck<.

london based label ism serves up a massive ep with three tracks from russian disco producer volta cab, all of which offer some seriously downtempo grooves. >play on< and >magic in your eyes< nail the classic sub 110bpm disco sound with its lush live instrumentation. however its the shining 80s feel of >hes a bad mutha< that is the most impressive, melding a sleazy vocal with a heart-rending combination of synths and horns. label bosses yam who? offer two remixes, with their version of >play on< a cosmic uptempo version of the original, with an ascending synth bass that elevates the original vocal to new heights. their remix of >hes a bad mutha< adds a similar amount of extra dancefloor kick, removing the originals yearning melody for something a little more forceful.

played and supported by: adam x, ben klock, samuli kemppi, dvs1, edit-select, norman nodge, oliver ho, perc, shifted, cio d or, max_m, lucy and more... m_rec ltd continues to ascend as one of the the most interesting labels in the techno scene. today s release sees giorgio gigli (prologue music, zooloft, electric deluxe, elettronica romana, etc.) sign two original tracks and a remix of one of the most important artists of the past few years: terence fixmer (electric deluxe, prologue music, etc.). together, their approach creates something special and unique. in its original track giorgio gigli delivers the best of its hypnotic and psychedelic techno. a great atmosphere, where the ambient pads meet the dark bass sound which made giorgio one of the most significant artists in the new techno scene. the side closes with an ambient session, a drone of pure electronic,dark synth, making the idea of the state of mind of his own individual unconscious.terence fixmers version is decidedly more rough, stripped of certain atmospheres, highlighting a more hypnotic and repetitive attitude. this rough sounds have for many years marked terence fixmer as an icon of the techno world. this is a great release of modern techno!

somewhere between center parcs in nottingham and the white sandy perfection of formentera reside two men dedicated to the art of horizontal dancing. their mums call them ampo and timm (funny names, those notts lads), though we know them by their collective name of coyote. in their minds eye, it is still 1986 and there are leathery looking germans with alarming posing pouches dancing to simply red records on the shimmering terrace at ku club while down the road alfredo is building his legendary reputation at amnesia. apart from the clued-up few, most of the brits are billeted in san antonio where the beers are cheap and the sunburn is plentiful. coyotes music, despite being produced in the east midlands conjures up a world of sun, sea and 80s glamour, while still sounding very much like today.

although firmly entrenched in the minus camp for years, this latest four track ep from us born, berlin based ambivalent marks a widening of his sonic remit. as such it arrives on the broader techno outpost that is plus 8, and can be added to the likes of clink for whom the man known as kevin mchugh has also recorded. carefully blending the soul of his american roots with a european propensity for machine music, ambivalent’s ever evolving sonic blueprint here explores some of his most fluid grooves to date

sao paulos techno titan returns. gui boratto needs little introduction - after all he has played pretty much every corner of the globe, placing himself as one of the most in-demand producers and performers in dance music today. its summer and kompakts bomb for the season is about to explode. just in time for his extensive european tour throughout july. the drill embraces the classic kompakt shaffel but delivered in a chalice of class that only gui boratto is capable of drinking from. a roaring bass line that sways side to side in layers of euphoric harmony. bold – brazen. boratto. stems from hell is classic boratto. guitar-esque chording launches this depth charge that is just pure build. tension and release – you sense this track can almost breath on its own. the moments are near perfect in this swelling that reaches a fever pitch right when you think it would never come. there will be more from gui boratto in 2011....stay tuned.

our japanese dear friend hidenobu ito is definitely overwhelming and it seems almost comically out of place. from alien hydraulics to percussive steel fractals he allows to take shape within the realm of impossibility. so, what follows next on numbolic records is a stunning lesson in subtle buildup of sound design. theres a feeling of constant movement and shaky energy that means his music never quite stands still. highly resonant and rapidly-panning drum hits act like flickering fluorescent lights. the result is a heavily abstracted layering and perhaps our most sonically release to date. every sound, no matter how tiny, is endlessly tweaked and picked apart. the 12 inch ep is rounded off with 2 prickly re-interpretations. dualism turns up the fog with a super-deep captivating and yet lovingly version. while ditch comes up with a characteristic throbbing dirty techno rework. another 4 smashing tracks by hidenobu ito are added digitally as well as two bonus remixes. kai provides a dance floor-approved version and the hungarian newcomer as we said made a cartoon spaceship to the moon. big pulsating bass kicks will drive you in that particular head-space, but before accidentally killing someone in love, we suggest go get this record instead and start dance! be numbolic!

yellorange must be considered one of the most prolific house music labels in history. founded in 1998 by the legendary tony humphries, the label closed its doors after a short run only in 2003 when strictly rhythm (who handled its distribution) collapsed. in those few years, the label put out nothing but quality music, with many - if not all - of these releases being considered a classic nowadays as you would imagine, there are lots of unreleased mixes to be discovered, and for years the fans have eagerly awaited the return of the label in hope some of these gems would see the light of the day. finally the wait is over and yellorange is back with >yellorange history - the kept it to ourselves mixes<, a collection of previously unreleased mixes by kerri chandler, paul simpson and david harness available on limited coloured vinyl. first come, first served!

the latest immerse cut sees the label tapping once again into the fertile waters of haunting, leftfield 4/4, showcasing the hitherto unknown talents of el kid. the eagle-eared out there may have picked up on the young echo radio show, which features sam kidel (to his folks) alongside west-country compatriots kahn, vessel and zhou showcasing their new tracks and mixes. for most though, this will be the first they hear of the bristol-born, brighton-based producer. on both tracks the synthetic sheen of detroit techno gets refigured into an almost downtempo kind of house music. the melody is king, whatever sonic texture it might manifest in, leaving you with ample layers to get engrossed in. that same quintessential yearning quality ensures that these first offerings from el kid fit perfectly into the immerse canon. it will shake the right kind of dancefloor, but it will also tug at the right kind of heart-strings as well.

a true master of the deeper arts, phonique has, since his first steps into the world of production back in the early 2000s, become synonymous with and eulogised for his beautifully cultured productions. labels such as simple, buzzin fly, souvenir and of course systematic have all played host to his music, but it s his work for steve bugs dessous imprint for which he is most renowned. first up is phoniques solo production, >2 my jungle< which sees him step into jacking tech-house territory. lovely open hi-hats are paired with the punch of the kick drum. a trumpet riff enters the fray, backed by the grooving throb of the bassline. its vocal samples are twisted and filtered throughout as phonique creates a wonderfully trippy summer anthem. on the flip he teams up with desolat badboy, guti. still riding high on the wave of support for his fantastic debut album >patio de juegos<, the argentinian producer phonique show just how much fun they can have in their electronic playground. beautifully deep and with a lush rhodes melody, >divertimento< entices us with its sultry summer vibes. a polar opposite, yet complete match to the a-side

amazing three-track ep by man of the moment spada. three hits charted amongst others by, dj yellow (composite records), psycatron (cocoon, planet e, bedrock) heartik (great stuff, kling klong), henry saiz (natura sonoris, rennaisance), ryan davis (traum, backhome, klangwelt), paul hazendonk (manual music), paul nazca (boxer). the italian studio wiz whos past releases have been in the bag of most of the international key players in the scene such as, erol alkan, sasha, john digweed, richie hawtin, boys noize, umek, armin van bureen... delivers a powerful three tracker ep that has just about everything for everyone.

the second release on oasi lab has a duo of artists already known for their collaborations with labels like: tuning spork, resopal, and amam. they are mr.bizz & matteo spedicati! second release have two original tracks >naitoku< and >kyoto<, full tech house style both, where bass riffs and vocals are very important. to embellish the ep is >naitoku< remix by mulder nl, producer present in highest quality labels like: bla bla, be real, suara, just to name a few, and collaborations with daniel sanchez. mulder remix have high quality deep and detroit sonorities that will almost certainly not disappointed lovers of the most exigent clubs.

you might not be aware of this artist or lp… but thats all about to change. this is the holy grail of cosmic disco… that disco kids dont even know yet. released in 1978 on little known inter global records, this lp is one of the most in demand, expensive & undiscovered albums of this genre. just check discogs! not much is known about the group, where their from or what they went on to do, but that doesnt stop every track on this album being a bonafide killer. arguably the albums highlight is jamaica electric, but unlike most cosmic disco lps where there is just one main track, every outing on this lp is unique and of the highest quality. cosmic, mind bending disco at its finest… sounding so fresh it couldve been made by prins thomas or lindstrom this year.

freaky vibes is proud to present speaking of love ep. the original mix is an old school track with spooky and deep atmospheres mixed at well with an huge groove and a solid dark vocal. you can find also the fabio ricciuti & groovik rmx. the result of this collaboration between the label owner, groovik, and one of the most talented djs on the italian scenario, fabio ricciuti...is an old school version that reminds the golden old times!

the second serving from schmorgasbord brings together two relatively disparate and unrelated artists, but who both share a uniquely twisted approach to making music. s-max has been doing his thing for some time, running legendary home all things bizarre in house and techno, boogizm, and releasing a special kind of groove on labels such as telegraph, 7th city and karloff. his original track, >ms. rosen dub<, swaggers and sways with the spirit of classic yorkshire bleeps and bass. the groove is house, but the spirit of adventure is most definitely techno. his remix of spatials >corti< takes a very different approach, taking a rolling, jungle-like approach to dubstep and nailing it to the groove with stabbing bass notes. spatial leapt onto the bass music radar late 2008 with his shadowy infrasonics imprint, and quickly snapped heads with his crisp, refined approach to 2-step rhythms. since then he’s done things on his own terms, only releasing for himself and mutating his sound over a series of 10 inches. >corti< perfectly demonstrates spatials unconventional tendencies, lurching and buckling around a perfectly honed splatter of beats, off-centre synths and delirious vocal snippets. meanwhile on his remix of s-max, spatial flips the script once again with a stomping, swung techno angle that hammers the original into an uptempo, fist-pumping banger.

tes la roks highly anticipated debut album entitled >them< will finally see the light of day. tes la rok made his name in dubstep circles in 2007 with the massive >round the world girls remix< which immediately positioned him as one of the most exciting artists and definitely one to watch. anthem releases such as >under the dancing feet< remix for clouds, >wikidness remix< for mungos hi-fi, and >up in the vip / living fire< on dub police were soon followed by bookings at dmz in brixton and dubstep mecca fwd>> at plastic people. >them< features thirteen tracks engineered with precision and care. these tracks are being championed by the main players such as distance, n-type, kryptic, minds, desto, pinch, addison groove and cyrus.

released as a 2 x 12 inch with the full length 11 track cd album shrink-wrapped. the vinyl features 4 brand new remixess from the album.this album represents the peak so far of the lads technical skills, its carefully produced from start to finish. tracks are frequently tied together, and a lot of thought has gone into the flow of the album. this is one that can be listened too from beginning to end, as opposed to a collection of singles. however that doesnt mean that state of mind have forgotten about the 3am raver. almost all of the tracks have all been smashing it up world wide over the last 6 months in their own right. collaboration wise, the album features several of nzs most talented vocalists including shapeshifters p.digsss, thomas oliver, sacha vee, mc woody & pnc, as well as american singer 3pm. the only production collaborators are nymfo and dnme. several other collaborations were planned for the lp, but in the end were unable to fit. these will be released as bonus tracks.

miles whittaker has been an integral part of the modern love label since its inception in 2002 - as one half of both pendle coven and demdike stare, as well as his own productions under the mlz and millie monikers. after almost 15 years writing music, this is the first release miles is putting out under his own name and marks a turning point of sorts in his production style, or rather, in its sequencing. the facets ep brings together different ends of his production style, unifying elements of the house and techno he s most commonly released as mlz together with the more broken production signatures usually reserved for millie and the darkened tribalism of demdike stare. flawed opens the set with a linn loop from the archives, stretched and slowed down with an intoxicated aesthetic that s somewhere between house and dub, before lustre re-configures source material originally keyed in by labelmate andy stott with a nice line in squashed percussion. primer on the flip extends from a demdike stare outtake and veers off into an analogue drum machine workout, before on the fly ends the set with a recording made straight to mixing desk from an array of mis-wired and malfunctioning drum boxes, contact microphones and samplers, over at his studio the mill earlier this year.

fachwerk delivers one after another twelve that stands out!. straight no nonsense tracks from mike dehnert who is the talk of the town after his heavy delsin album released earlier this year. clean and powerful produced tracks that each has its own character making this one of the most versatile and intimate releases mike dehnert ever produced. essential techno tool.

ok we can do a long text here... but lets not do that.... fantastic track by recast (aka fluxion)! a blissed-out track that is lush and jazzy! the experience of years of precision crafting dubby tech soundscapes is brought to these tracks, which are grooving house vibes executed in the melodic but quirky manner of isolee or luomo. lorca music is on remix duty here and did a great job with a clattering, skittering groove that is somewhere between 2-step and brokenbeat, the result is heavy and provides a nice alternative to the two recast versions. this is pure techno as we like it... not the banging big room techno, but techno we know from pioneers such as derrick may, carl craig, john beltran, stefan robber and the likes. no shit... this is just one of the most beautiful records we ve heard in a while.

nuria ghia has entered the world of production solidly. after creating her own label bluecube, the beautiful catalan girl is welcome in our beloved globox. nuria loves electronic music, her experience in the booth amounts to 11 years, having played in the most important clubs in spain.

played and supported by chris liebing, norman nodge, samuel l session, paco osuna, angel molina, audio injection etc pp ...the view can be admired from the terrace of a last floor of a building(attic) is unique for its charm. see everything from above to the horizon .. and you can see many scenarios that do not get to see. you can explore sounds and noises. in this context arises the attic session vol.1. a release that continues to confirm the attic music as a label of techno and electronic most interesting in the european scene. four episodes for four different interpretations at different times.

hallucination limited delivers a limited edition vinyl only release from none other than fellow new yorker… zev of wolf + lamb. gathered here are zevs strongest outings for the club since the brilliant >forget the world feat. beckford<. we dare say this is his best work to date with >queen of hearts< being one of the freshest takes we have heard on good ole house music this year. pushing all the right buttons, but also some most would never think to. queen of hearts feat. panu moon the initial groove instantly does what all great house does, but what follows are the contemplative vocals of a showman on the road via panu moons soft country drawl… playfully tweaked by zev adding an edge without taking away from panus croon. an unexpected techno vibe begins to ebb and flow over the groove yet it all magically stays together through the voice of a man searching for the queen of his heart. its house music with both an edge and sense of humor not unlike paperclip people, but in a vein more akin to >every now and then< by ralph falcon

cabanne just came out of the pool with this adequately named >aqua paëlla< ep. if the man needs no further introduction, it is worth noting that this will be cabannes first release on minibar since 2009. he therefore changed into his most elegant mask, snorkel and flippers to provide us with these three fantastic house tracks. traditional >à la cabanne<, just better than ever! enjoy!

the more perceptive among you will no doubt twig the musical direction of an ep entitled >the deepness< by 2deepsoul before the needle even hits the groove. if you hoped it was going to be brimming with ocean deep grooves and burning chords - deep house in the truest sense - then youd be right. malcolm moores altered moods recordings brings us the debut release from 2deepsoul, aka rai scott and brad peterson, who set their stall out with a title track dripping with moody synths and hypnotic drums n hats. >escaping insanity< meanwhile is underpinned by a delicious acid line - perhaps the most outright floor-friendly track on this here 12inch. the metronomic pulse of >harmony< is augmented by a majestic one note synth loop that gently soars above - a rasping hat soon joins the fray along with the gentlest of string flourishes. >continuance (theory of lazy clap)< is equally bewitching, with a title and arrangement that wouldnt sound out of place in the dj sprinkles catalogue<

the index is a project by two of new york city s underground music pioneers, raz mesinai aka badawi and dub war founder dave q. the label centers on original badawi productions at the intersection of dub and modern composition, as well as new works and remixes by some of the most forward-thinking artists at the outer limits of dubstep and experimental electronica. the first release was 2010 s head-melting el topo / dstry all pfrfts team-up with shackleton, and this second entry finds badawi reviving new york s dystopian hip hop lineage via a collaboration with the legendary mc sensational of jungle brothers and wordsound fame. no schnitzel is a militant, mind-bending half-step rhythm that sensational weaves in and out of, creating a new form of dubstep-hip hop hybrid with a unique bad apple flavor. the dubbed-out version strips it down to the instrumental roots, while flipside more schnitzel goes deeper into abstracted acid dubstep for the more adventurous soundsystem selectors.

aah, how we have missed them! the fine young gentlemen that are channel x, two of stil vor talents most active producers of meticulously crafted and deeply energetic tech-house smash hits. and just in time for the open-air season they now come back with two very convincing pieces of dancefloor art. first up is >little symphony<, an epic space opera that takes it cues from early 90s techno and mixes it up with post-modern grooves and beats. the wide and open spaces are filled with some very hymnal string patterns that are given a final treatment with a reverbed and high-pitched vocal sample. contrast that with the rather jittery beat and a subbass as deep as the frequencies will go and you got yourself a substantially clear bit of techno that is best imagined when it is dark and only some beams of air tell you where you are. channel x do not produce, they direct and all of the sounds are their actors! on the flip things get more light-hearted and set for the daylight hours as well. >steamboat willie< is a heavily sample-orientated swinging piece of jack. the rhythm guitar lead the way on top of a clap-based loop that sets the basis for some very jazzy interpretations along the way. clarinets, trumpets, percussions, brass, effects and even some talking vocal samples are all allowed to join in this hedonistic big band that is at play. this is one for the sunshine, this is one for the smiles on the faces, this is one to feel instantly good about yourself and everything around you. two very different tracks on this ep, but both equally stand out for themselves

for the first album ever being released on ki we invited biodub, a producer/dj from the north of germany, who impressed us with his fusion of dub, techno, electronica and is a musician throughout. bringing in his experience as the drummer of instrumental band noetics and based on a minimalistic foundation, his tracks are playful in a microscopically way. in between deep bass lines and characteristic dub chords, various sounds coming from field recording sessions and sometimes also acoustic instruments, making this piece of music extremely warm and alive. biodub tries to transform visual impressions into his music. he finds most of these impressions in nature but sometimes also in machines or buildings in connection with their environment. the album is equally comfortable on the dance floor as in the living room. but you would rather enjoy his music on an open field in the nature than on your couch. the album will be released as a full 2 x12 inch lp, and cd in folded hardcover with photography, graphic and layout coming from ki s amélie kai and since it leaves so much space for interpretation, there will be a 12 inch-single with remixes of stereociti and koi.

crookers serve up more out of this world delights ... phra & bot aka crookers follow up their ground breaking dr.gonzo bust em up ep with yet more out of this world gonzo madness! the gonzo anthem ep is another three track excursion to planet gonzo where italian duo crookers seem to be spending most of their time these days. dr.gonzos anthem is a melodic wonderment, that sounds like the soundtrack to an unreleased 80s sci fi flick, just when your thinking what a lovely tune, it turns psychotic

tuccillo is a rare producer as he lives and works in ibiza all year round rather than flies in for the summer. the white island is without doubt the most overused and abused place on earth for dance music promotion, but beneath the glam superficial surface a real scene of native island talent is emerging. so when it came to making an ep for 2020vision we pushed the artist as far as we felt he could go, to explore new untried directions and show his diversity. tuccillo showed his true spirit and worked though a few knockbacks from our a/r team until we were happy we had the best ep possible at this moment
