we are pleased to announce the debut release of a young producer from the uk, bnjmn. his adventurous electronic sound is one we haven t heard in a while, and excited us on first listen. while on one hand his music has a traditional sound (early 90s uk), bnjmn does create a world of his own due to the versatility in his productions. it is this versatility that creates an exciting hybrid sound, therefore pushing the envelope and making it sound very current, future even

one would be curious as to what a track such as this one would sound like. images and visuals floating through your head as you press play, the airy, angelic pad intro induces you into a trance-like state before soothing piano lines and a pitched-up vocal reminiscent of the early hardcore era takes you away. as the drums come in with a half-time feel, it is easy to imagine japanese taiko drummers playing their part. once the break takes hold, a short span of melodic heaven uplifts before the drums take control again.

m a n i k returns to ovum after his incredibly successful park to the slope ep. he comes to us this whit his follow up keep that fresh ep. the title of the ep says it all as m a n i k is constantly evolving his sound and keeping the music fresh. the title track >keep that fresh< has a funky 303 bass line with intricate grooves and a hook made up of some chords. this is something that will clearly get the floor rolling. next up is ditmars blvd with its heavy drums and catchy synth line, is a stone cold groove track. on the b side we start with >hold on<. this track is inspired by the sounds of early west coast g funk hip hop with its lead synth and funked up analog bass line. the final cut on this diverse ep is >shes slow motion<, with its r&b vocal floating over the incredible deep instrumental. this is something you could hear in the early mornings at a brooklyn warehouse party. all in all a great diverse follow up from m a n i k that should be in the sets of a wide range of djs

sea power & change is a pseudonym for seminal portuguese producer tiago, a multi-talented musician and dj with his attention split between many musical endeavors, this self-titled ep marking his departure into yet another territory. these are four melancholic songs, each independent in mood yet collectively bringing to life a beautifully vague array of contradictions. with sea power & change, tiago taps into our perverted subconscious, developing a cinematic approach by coupling tragic pianos with slow-motion basslines, slinky guitars against industrial drums and grandiose synthesizers over tropical percussion, all bathed in pornographic overtones

with their first co-production, dj / producer paul woolford and the irish-born producer team paul hamill and dee lievense aka psycatron deliver the prove that uk techno has not lost any of its energy or visionary power in the year 2010. after releases for carl craigs planet e label and r & s (psycatron) resp. 2020 vision or renaissance (paul woolford), the two tracks on the >thunder ep< are consequently moving to the next level. >thunder< impresses with extremely dynamic drumming and always changing percussion patterns. a rhythm body that is constantly in motion and will be enlightening every single dance floor with its hypnotic power dub. >cloud 9<, however, is stepping back at first and stresses an explicit chord techno structure despite its solid pumping elements before integrating some noise rave signals following the epic break after some 5 minutes, as it was totally naturally and thus letting the whole floor blast off. with such joy of telling and the eagerness to experiment in a musical way, you are really looking forward to the winter club season 2010/2011!

first part of nwis ep, celebrating the amsterdam dance event.

roman iv is roman flügel. surely, you dont need us to sing you the praise of his various styles. under his roman iv moniker, he always pursued his more contemplative dance floor side. la paloma is exactly that kind of perpetual and lulling marathon jam that recollects his testament tracks (check playhouse and ladomat for further listening) and needs to be followed all the way through. having said that, sa caleta looks for a more immediate hit. with a rigid punch and some greasy layers, you get romans take on the current or recurrent slow motion disco craze. straightened out and cut right to the chase. finally, lucy rolls over again, starts where la paloma ended and makes its way up to a subliminal hookline. for all you digi kids: look for the bonus beat mix tool supreme called 123 bpm. roman iv president

to open eyes, not ears to hear what there is to see -- just one of the many paradoxes mainz-based butch manages to merge with verve. to capture the duality of his sounds that oscillate between under and over, techno and house, spirituality and marketability, club and home stereo, to celebrate the everyday high and question it at the same time, is just one of the many talents and specialties of this particular dj and producer whose light shines from the orient and whose future lies in yonderland. this and much more is the starting point for a terrific second long player, released by proud and excited bülent gürler himself on his very own, newly founded imprint bouq. leaving the flattering protection of his mayor label behind to spread his creative wings and fly around the world as free as a bird, the multi-facetted, mainz-based producer, more selfconfident and independent than ever, is presenting himself in the best party light

leonel castillo is undoubtedly argentinas most gifted producer. while his releases remain extremely rare, his daily creations keep adding and adding onto the thousands of tracks he produced over the past 20 years. on this very special artist ep - leonel castillo, the great engineer, sets some intricate and complex rhythmics in motion, forging el salon de los espejos into a highly feverish hotbox of a record. get this right: no other man can develop such elaborate and throbbing patterns as he does. from his lucious grooves featured on sushitech, to the stripped aesthetics as heard on illian tape or even the dubby techno textures from his record last year on greener - needless to say, leonel covers a wide and complete musical range.

three guys with a common passion in deep sounds, funky and raw beats meet up with the aim of producing their own and friends stuff. baby move! ep is the first ep of the enfant prodige marco daquino, florence native dreamer who delivers two little gems of disco-house. the main track is a dreamy deep train that will take you over with its gentle strings and wonderful synth, while a voice from a glorious past will funk up the whole thing. on the other side this sound is my sound brings us in a slow-motion deep funk world and will definetely shake your body and make you smile.

dance disorder (aka baby g and robin crafoord) have lived up to their reputation with an extremely successful bpitch debut. the disco smash >zusammen<, with its epic breadth and italo dance roots, has already had the chance to set many an after party in motion.

joint venture between the because, edbanger and warp labels, and what a result. killer new effort from squarepusher on the jazz-funk-electro tip, on a side cryptic motion, the perfect soundtrack for a remake of zabriskie point in 2012, heavy bass that slaps your flesh and some sunset vocoder. mr oizo on the b side for an epileptic straight to the head p-funk remix only him can twist that way. limited quantities, so be quick or be sorry!

>that placid track< has been in the hands of some lucky individuals for some time now, making its way across dancefloors from berlin to new york, bristol to tokyo.
dark disco references are heavy throughout with a great use of strings licks, a slo-motion vocal sample and a classic cowbell keeping everything nicely in check. as with most of octobers productions though he still has one foot firmly inside berghainrendering this essentially disco track into something with more of a late night, broody edge.

frederik hatsav and jamie kidd joined forces to create the new metalogic sound - edgy, dynamic and highly rhythmic electronic music. after releasing their music on well-known and respected labels such as perctrax and hidden agenda, their full-length album torus is a true highlight full of fresh and deep techno-tracks. the more you will play this amazing record, the more it will surprise and catch you. check out this bass-driven heavy monster-tunes that will rock any dancefloor around the world for sure!

some fresh blood on ior from newcomer craig bratley who delivers a slow motion slab of electronic funk. remixes from burnt island casuals + 6th borough project.

echospace are proud to announce the third ep from the forthcoming cv313 album, >dimensional space<. this release marks the first remix from one of the uks most revered talents -- king midas sound (the bug) who manages to take the original in a direction one would never expect, creeping and trembling right at the very core of your very being. this is truly the midst of something beautiful, its haunting, infectious and has no restrictions to gravity, this is truly something to float in. next we have a heady subliminal interpretive from seattles, rafael anton irisarri as the sight below (ghostly) there is a reason why his sound has even turned the head of radiohead front man thom yorke and if i had to guess i would say its rafaels emotional range, he tugs right at the heart strings. this mix is as narcotic as you would expect, a slow motion dream where in every twist and turn a new detail unfolds, its like visiting an unexplored world -- subtle and hypnotic. on the b side (our first sound snippet) we have a more 4/4 number culled from deepchord presents: echospace (modern love) live set from this past year. this one has been tried and tested at countless shows and club floors around the world. its all about that syncopated bassline, a subterranean bottom and an atmosphere as deep as the ocean floor -- this is underwater space funk.

incl rmxs by umek, lauhaus, reset robot!! early support from daniele papini, james zabiela, dave seaman, joris voorn, okain, alan fitzpatrick, slam, tania vulcano, deetron, paco osuna, kabale & liebe

lover. fighter. prophet. freak magnet. time-traveler. musician, photographer and designer jimmy edgar is a wayward prodigy streaking across the cosmic dance-floor. in 2001 at the tender of 18, his hyper-sexed microchip stylings caught the ear of warp, where he cranked out his brand of amped-up laptop funk for the next eight years, culminating in the full-length classic >color strip< (2006). now 26, edgar is shaking things up at !k7. on new turf, edgars sonic prowess takes on a leaner, more radio-ready shine and what edgar does essentially and very well is make your body move.

>angles< stretches guitar strings like taffy through a forest of finger snaps and slow-motion electro shudder, with a cycling chorus teasing out medieval melodies. >materials< is quicker of spirit, with a rippling pulse played out on muted jazz drums, shuttling between blocked piano chords and silvery oscillators and weaving an irresistible groove. its beautiful, unexpected and absorbing music-and theres nothing else out there that sounds like it.

percussive elements slowly but surely set the tracks in motion. the fist peak is followed by a spooky collage of bizarre sounds and atmospherics, held together securely by the reliably straight house beat! enjoy!

emptiness isnt a quality you normally associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the associate with electronic dance music. from the crowd on the dancefloor to the weight of the bass, its all about fullness, volume, density. reboot turns that opposition on its head with his debut album, shunyata. the title comes from buddhism and translates loosely as >emptiness.< but not just in the negative sense: it speaks also to impermanence, a state of constant flux. its a great description of reboots music, where everything is in constant and kaleidoscopic motion. and its also a fitting metaphor for the life of the frankfurt-based musician, aka frank heinrich. in just three years, since his first eps under the reboot moniker appeared on cadenza and below, hes become one of electronic musics hottest properties, releasing not only a slew of singles for labels like cocoon, love letters from oslo, ricardo villalobos >sei es drum< and underground cult fave motivbank, but also a pair of high-profile mix cds for cocoon and cécille

put your seatbelts on! after hitting toys in slow motion, bot.ox puts it into gear and takes to the autobahn, with uptempo drums, mad synth lines and freaky naive melody at the next left turn. >overdrive< could have been a perfect horror movie soundtrack, something like the pop corn theme covered by d.a.f.

nice price deal !!! this is dasein, the opening potion of milyoos (aka tommy wilson) debut ep and the second release on subeenas new opit records. dasein attempts to grapple with existence, temporality and substance and what could be a more perfect description of these warped sonics- perpetual motion purely of the moment. multitude makes you feel like a tourist at an off-world bazaar, a strange landscape with a slug-bass bubble undercarriage and inquisitive wide-eyed synths. fayoh leads in with in a harold budd doing house piano before being pounced on by clipped vocal tics and odd blocks of cubist sound all underpinned by a funky beat and quite frankly its gorgeous. if there is a strand of coherence across the ep then its an almost exotic one- these are curiosities, virtual ships in bottles, they are not narrative pieces even if they are in constant motion. only two releases in and opit records is clearly going to avoid easy categorisation- milyoos debut is something to get mighty excited about and i await further transmissions with baited breath...

>nausicaä< the female hero fights for survival through ecological desaster. with undeviating force she struggles to revitalize nature. the japanese manga art movie inspired blome to his new release on sender after the 10th anniversary compilation. track one on the a-site >nausicaä< opens with an instrumental amplitude which creates a soulful width. swinging bass weave a well constructed atmosphere of a sensitive play. circulating, flexible sequences combined with sensible used vocals of a guy called gerald creating an impulsive, drifty sound aesthetic. a synchronization of body and motion, of moment and expansion. on the >calamaris street< we travel moreaccelerated through the universe sender. with tentacular sense calamaris street spins strings of sound and voice to a hypnotic bustle. sender 087 is concatenating >nausicaä< and >calamaris street< in an ecstatic synthesis of sound and vision to an new euphoric synthesis.

big with: basic soul unit, ame, ingo sõnger, oliver hafenbauer, dixon, sevensol, dirk rumpf,roland appel,.. back from the initial mild pitch release >this feeling< last year, ribn deliver their overdue follow-up entitled >light black ep< - three tracks as ambivalent as the title suggests! the title track is a mesmerizing house/technohybrid of colourful darkness, reminiscent of classic early ribn releases: meandering synths and hypnotic sound fragments crawl around a stomping beat while the crunchy bass loop keeps moving things forward irresistably. first up on the flip side is >sin & figs<, a warm and pathetic summer gem that is destined to soundtrack any sunrise over the next couple of months. rich layer textures and sweet little melodies make this piece one of the most emotional moments of the mild pitch catalogue to date. closing the ep on b2 is >stonedrum<, a slow-motion house treat with oddly pitched vocals, a subtle groove and heavy low-end. its masked and fragile funkyness and crackling background noises complete a complex image that requires more attention than a 30-seconds preview clip to get a clue..

first on decks.de !! founded in 2009, time has come for the 1st release, >plusminus1<. whereas berlin dj sid wrote a track for the a-side, both, rohrer & siegel from potsdam, have their own track on the b-side. b2 >deepdownover<, created by alexander siegel, is a piece of art that goes back and forth, unifies high and low. his track can be said to cause emotional ups and downs. if the year had four musical seasons, >deepdownover< could be one of them. b1 >dr. pepper<, wolfgang rohrers track, a creative tool for the dancefloor, is deep and funky and has a bassline to tear down walls. with its groove, >plusminus 1< on the a-side is in the position to set fairly everything in motion. reduced to the essential

first single taken from the forthcoming technasia album, >central<, with a two-tracker in the purest technasia style. on the a, >esperance< is a funky number in constant motion, with huge chord progression, while on the b, the gritty street-level techno of >innocuous clouds< doesnt forget that dance music rightfully belongs on the dancefloor. all in all an ep sure to become a cherished tool for djs across the house and techno spectrum.

the fresh, new label tonschleife presents the first release. the single >we are material< from hardware hits the dancefloor like a bomb! big electro and the lovely voice à just great. are you material?

a step back to those days... we are gearing up for the coming of spring and have the perfect record to kick the sunny season into full motion!

2002 remixes for 1999 released >mars< by chicago based boo williams.

back in stock !!! crash test is a long player, a four to the floor album that can be listened to from start to finish. an organic sequence of shifting moods to sublimate existing minimal house or techno paradigms. the lp is shaded with bass weight: a reflective, meandering interpretation of the grooves that have always inspired buttrich: echoes of hip hop, jazz, reggae and soul. emotive tangents hover, punctuated with found sounds & textures recorded in public spaces. / deluxe gatefold coverartwork incl free download code (free access for the hole album and bonus tracks...)

we lost track of rocco branco nearly 5 years ago. no >goodbye<, nothing, he simply vanished off the grid. a few days ago, mr. branco staggered into the hirsch camp, smelling of sex and jaegermeister, no explanation. no apologies. rocco simply handed over two tracks, turned around, and walked away... diamant captures the sex of a one-night stand. a metaphysical launch pad of selfindulgence. no compromises, purely physical, firm and purposeful – precisely how we like our techno. gibbon depicts sex with a lover – reminiscent of gratifications past. familiar, nubile and polished a mastered motion of lustful appetite. in roccos return, we find a record of lifes carnal moments. good hunting!

first super motion release presenting four slick disco tracks. rarities and obscurities. including a long-cut-edit of >give it up<. give it up, closer closer, dont stop, bio rhythms!

aux 88 long standing in the aux quadrant have reemerged as arashi hoshino and shin muramatsu. the mental transformation from aux 88 to mad scientist has set events into motion that have converted the mad scientist mental circuitry in to two unique entities. using smaller more adaptable nano circuitry to create new electronic synthesis from the original aux voice and mind. black tokyo are visionist, scientist, and mental programmers on the teachings of electronic sound. black tokyo’s second laboratory long thought to be hidden somewhere beneath the dark streets and factories of detroit have assembled some of the world’s most advanced technology and software to create new devices of electronic sounds. aux 88 have been under surveillance for years by others who have sought to learn if the two aux 88 members are indeed the same entities the mad scientist or are have they indeed transformed into black tokyo. the two men have ventured into their 4/4 techno world black tokyo

taken from the original streets of fire motion picture soundtrack! includes larry levan remix!

after releasing the excellent >wormhole< on japan excursion joint 3, the most talented stefny gives us her debut solo archipel 12 inch, >echinodon<, featuring remixes from bruno pronsato and isomer transition.
this package, by all means, is set to infinitely clutch and grab ahold of many a mind. >echninodon< is wonderfully fanged, each maxilla locked and loaded, ready to capture the entirety of the minds resources and set it into intricate motion. it possesses a hypnotic prowess of such a level which makes it difficult if not impossible to shift ones attention away from it. if lucid dreaming is possible while one is awake, waking dreams within wakefulness, this is sure to cause just such a condition to arise, leading to deliciously formed headscapes where every scene is endlessly novel and created out of the finest of mental interior brushstrokes and every individual shade and colour is endless in its depth.

roberto bardini is a deep techno producer from turin (ita). he is amongst the few enlightened producer/djs who declared independence from the current minimal-techno mainstream. his musical approach is by all means deep, and through this he casts his vision of a more mature and alternative dancefloor.
well known alongside labels such as shyan music and plastic city, in 2007 starts a collaboration with eclipsemusic and this is his second apparence named >new perspectives ep< features a slow-motion deep house vibes especially >through together< amazing synth texture running on pads pattern in classic robs style deep as the ocean, music with soul and appropriate track for sunset landscapes and beach time dancing, the titletrack >new perspective< is more techno oriented production with dub style chords and raw clipped bass, a new form of dub techno music better for dancefloor situations. rob confirms himself as a innovative deep man walking!

our man ryo murakami sends over the next transmission in his exciting and growing catalogue of productions. always inspired by the raw and soulful sound of chicago and new york, this next ep puts forward his vision and continuation of this timeless house feeling. lead track >just for this< is a wonderful celebration of heavy slow motion house. classic house references and even a few classic samples meet in a dirty, deep ride into the tweaked out and extended vibes of the late night people. a journey through the city of house, a perfect refl ection of the times, bringing warmth and light in a once colder world. graeme clark aka the revenge, a fi gure who has enjoyed much success with his deviant disco sound, steps up for remix duties - and a fi ne job he does too! building his mix from the bare bones, adding a little more pace and forward momentum, his version is also tightly bound within the roots of emotional, deep vibes house. this is an outstanding remix - functional, clear and fully devoted to the classic sound. on the b side a mysterious original, >untitled<, sees ryo pushing things a little further still. the energy levels climb higher and higher as this modern hypno-houser phases and pulses upwards over nearly 8 minutes of jacking, sample laden freshness. we love to visit ryos house, where everybodys welcome and theres smiles all round

chicago house style take on famous jazz dance classic

this record is just so wooow it hurts to close the gap. it s like it says on the tin of cliches: >the definition< is giving you a concise description of where soul clap, the humorous boston-based house duo, is heading. well, not quite: more where they have arrived, actually. they have found their style. eleven out of ten! this is light years away from the sick >puppy crack< anthem that left you with wobbly legs. get ready to be completely overwhelmed as the sassy producers beamed themselves into futuristic groove heavens while staying firmly grounded on the proto 90s floor. right on!

fantastic late summer release by galaxy toobin gang, includes remixes by lee douglas, the prince of new york disco and dj overdose (of novamen and getitboyz), the dark night of the hague electro. none of the meandering ponder-o-rama of their debut album, but straight up bootywhomping dancefloor chaos this time
