the united kingdom and new zealand unite on the latest get digital release, as tim green and emerson todd team up for two tracks of trendy tech-house. both of these guys had a splendid 2009. tim with his releases on dirtybird and emerson providing a contribution to get digital, at the end of last summer. their initial collaboration came in the form of exercise, which popped up on a compilation from sven väths admired cocoon label. make meis driven by crisp and tight beats that one would expect from these two producers, before tumbling into a 1920s speakeasy jazz drum solo. a flurry of vocals shoo off the drummers as the beats takeover again with an intensified energy. after all that dancing, you will surely need some foot treatment. that is where nail clippertakes over. a sonic pedicure, to easy your tired toes? not quite

when casting a weary eye towards the impending chill of winter, its important to remember that the choice of company kept can greatly affect the way in which one wiles away the long gray hours. in this case, we didnt even need to look further than our own backyard. enter deep techno masons, donor/truss. made up of greg schappert of brooklyn and tom russell of wales, their collective efforts have seeped into the consciousness of world class djs, producers and fans of uncompromising techno music through releases on synewave, miniscule, dilek, and dumb unit. with this, their first ep on thema, they have begun expanding their signature sound. the heady claustrophobia we’ve come to know and love has opened up just enough, spurring a graceful and startling evolution. we also would like to say that we re very happy that themas first release for the year 2010 is, in part, from local nyc based talent. mr schappert has been a big supporter of this label for quite sometime and to have him and tom step onboard is just about the best way we can think of to start the new year. the future is here, welcome 2010!

brut! records baby sister label, pop!, sees its second release with popnonames spaces. an eclectic line-up, including joerg burger, freund der familie and paid for fame, remix the original three times over to offer a varied perspective of the same brave track. revving its engine, spaces drives you to experience things. it invites you to crack yourself open so that through that voluntary rift some new future might pour. bold, beautiful and formless it emerges, washed in a golden light. a baby nebula, perhaps if you are lucky, cradled in the spiral arms of a distant galaxy patiently building mass as it clumps gas and dust together. the important things often creep up silently…recognized only once they are there, even though you had given them no shape in your mind prior to their arrival. space gives possibility to what these forms might be, boundless in four-dimensions. its that expanding medium that allows imagination to roam without end…where the need to distinguish between what you know and invented evaporates and flows pure and clear as an ice cold stream.

this e.p. is a composition by two artists who release their feelings thru their music. g.marcell presents >breathe<. on this side of the e.p. breathe is a musical adventure were g.marcell expresses a time period of release from the everyday drama. sometime in our everyday life we need just a little relief from the everyday pressure of the issues we encounter. this is the reason for the inhale mix and the exhale mix. the inhale mix is the more laid back groove where as the exhale mix is the more energetic groove strictly for dancing. on the other side of the e.p. >necessary sanctuary< is amirs experience of the dance floor when he hit the club scene. the original mix is full of energy and a for sure crowd pleaser. the 3am mix is more of the mellow late nite groove. over all, the e.p. is something for everyone to relate to in one way or another.

it was in november 2009 when professor dr. geiger presented his epoch-making invention to the public. of course, everyone was really excited, because this invention was said to shake the music industry to its very foundations. from now on, billions of mp3, cd, music cassette as well as ordinary record players should just be scrap, and completely out-of-date. todays dj, one could read in the manual, no longer needs all this. from now on, everything he needs is a 69 bux.

right on the heels of our previous bass/electro smasher, we hit you with the most anticipated house/disco record of recent times. helsinki 78-82 is a project by top billin team members flipper & koobra, whove always been active and always been down to bring something new to the label. while flipper is part of the top billin dj team and has always been the most high-flying of us, so no wonder the the new 12inch is some musical bliss thatll leave you feeling that good good. this is what we call big city house music, when youre cruising the streets at night with the top down - no words needed. in a manner michael mann would be proud of. so lifelike is a sort of remake of lifelikes great so electric (under permission), although this time it comes with vocals from our great helsinki new wave partners villa nah. if you are in need of a new end-nighter, this is it. cruising is a tune full of that pumping big city feel with driving drums and great synth work that will get them ladies on the floor and will fit into those funky house / modern disco sets. we even have a video for it, but its a different kind of cruising than you think (no al pacino)…

electric city (original) is a classic industrial techno track combining the driving force of relentless beats and bass with the huge rooms the that roland drum machines open up when you put massive reverb on them. its hypnotic and psychotic sounds appeal to the primal side, driving you to forget about coolness and unconditionally express yourself to the beat. uplifiting and dark at the same time, electric city echoes the high tech metropolitain dystopia we live in today. >echoes< presents itself with a forward marching industrial beat, piercing synth lines, and sweat inducing rhtymic patterns. its psycho bleeps are pure industrial funk. when the vocal sets in youll feel the relief on the dancefloor as the straight forward groove brings out the primal need to put your energy and emotion into expression: dance. function s remix of electric city is dark !!

daniel steinberg and front room are like annoyingly sexy couples that you end up in the next hotel room to on a company business trip. except of course daniel steinberg and front room dont actually have sex they just literally make sweet music together. the spiciness continues with the preacherman ep, daniel steinbergs fifth release on front room recordings. punctuated with the exotic and the kind of twists, bumps and energy that only steinberg can provide, preacherman kicks off a cacophony of funk fuelled head nodding to get any party pulsating. “you need love” with its in-your-face vocal, huge beat and sleazy decelerating breakdown has future classic written all over it. the long awaited tiefschwarz remix of “lucky sauce” also sees the light of day here in full effect and breathes a new layer of ‘wow’over a release that is only really just beginning to simmer down from its release in june. wonked out groover who stopped the music rounds proceedings off nicely on an ep that is audio proof that the stroke of his talent only gets more precise and dazzling with every release. daniel steinbergs releases are supported by the likes of ricardo villalobos, luciano, claude vonstroke and richie hawtin to name drop a few. watch this space for daniel steinbergs artist album coming out on front room in 2010

smaul recordings should not be suggestive of being fed by productions of acid pauli, only. however, creative times need being used and martin gretschmann - aka console - member of the notwist - alias acid pauli has collected lots of material whilst the scarce time left last year. on smaul 07 he follows his self-weaved red thread of the year. acid pauli confides more & more in a certain house rhythm paired with these melancholic layered sound-synthesis, already well known by him. astonishing things emerge out of acid paulis musical waves, sometimes even scientially croon quite a bit. nymbiotic (a) comes relaxed but holds a great melody up in the sleeve - seasonly peppered. symbiotic (b) rests bit on minimal house, but acid pauli never relied on that genre. thus, this track does not remain as it seems after three minutes. glitches and sounds break it up to evolve a new symbiosis. symbiotic becomes more timeless in spite of siren-climax peaks and an obsessive string chorus fading in the end.

this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.

finally some news from perlon co-founder markus nikolai. after some excursions with his band project >morane<, hes back with a solo 12 inch featuring >bushes< vocalist clair dietrich on the a-side

their debut ep comes on alphahouse records, and is turning heads as a late-night monster. need a mental picture? imagine classic g-man, strobe lights, smoke machines, and a cavernous berghain style freak show. the duo slyly manage to push the tracks in many directions, looking back to a time before ableton-warped bootlegs and cheap production techniques, all the while maintaining a standard that feels fresh and experimental. some of us are searching for more. with this record, we approach closer to that groove than ever.

without much need for introduction, archipel welcomes the talent of minus niederflur who bring with them the darkly blinding >lumen ep<. a lumen is a unit used to measure the perceived power of light and this ep is most definitely very powerful and certainly can be perceived as such. this is where the line between something as intangible as light is crossed and becomes tangible as one would feel an intense and warming heat which goes so far as to manifest itself as something with mass. title track >lumen< is the focused, convex lens, knife edge point of light which focuses a small portion of the suns energy so densely it could initiate many a blaze. >masse< is as dense as the most solid of gems and radiates dark light like heavy water and is sure to corrupt any geiger counter within its radioactive reach while >flor< stacks itself as high and wide as it can go, building further and further upon itself, and just as one would think it could build no further, it rotates itself back to within and further densifies, an inescapable sort of density of which one is eternally locked pleasurably within. >flucht< raises one into the blackest skies of night and flies hour after hour through blood orange clouds filled with the atmospherically scattered light from what was temporarily civilization below but is now just a memory shaded in the delight of being closed within the phosphorescence of late night fog.

it was only a short time ago when these 2 young up and comers made their respective debuts on our label and in the few months between then and now, they have gone on to skyrocket up through the ranks, conquering dancefloors, charts and dj crates-while becoming household names synonymous with quality and consistency.
florian kruse and nils nürnberg need very little introduction these days but for those that have been asleep or living under a rock, a good start would be to check their recent output on fine labels such as nrk, om, moodmusic, dessous and our very own dieb, to name a very select few. their first combined effort on the label has resulted in the >suerte ep<, a tight collection of deep as hell, tech infused house numbers heavily characterized by their attention to groove and addictive, seductive chord progressions that have become a hallmark of their production prowess.
to add some spice to an already sterling and stylized package, we have enlisted our good friend (and also mood music alumnus) alexander maier, to remix the titular >suerte< where he adds his considerable musical vocabulary to the proceedings, peppering a very tasty arrangement with piano chord stabs and throbbing basslines resulting in a gorgeous, summery house re-interpretation that has to be heard to be believed!
as if this werent enough, fresh from an impressive debut on nils and florians save room records we have been lucky enough to secure a percussion led, funk infused remix of >achieving balance< from bright new boys on the block io who round things off nicely and add another dimension to the >suerte ep<.

for the 5th installment of adultnappers illustrious ransom note, we welcome into the fray paul kominek, otherwise known as pawel (dial/orphan ear) with two sublimely beautiful compositions of modern electronic music. there is not many words to describe the feeling of these pieces. they run deep into the soul of house and techno. moving, yet intelligent, pawels plaintive take on dance music is unique in sound, but profoundly universal in feeling, connecting to emotions that seem rare these days on the dance floor. with powerful peak time remixes by new yorks alexi delano and brendon moeller, ransom note part five should make some noise in the coming months. from the desk of adultnapper, as inspired by lines and curves… as you well know, parallel paths are foreordained entities of diversity. as they travel further away from their origins, the more attraction tends to set in, not as a spiritual mechanism, but, rather, as a physical replication or limitless mimicry. one trajectory makes reference to the other, leading to a barrier, a zero crossing, some sort of cessation of thought. lines become curves and act as waking agents for the soul as it approaches its limit. sometimes this process is disrupted, as is the case this time. i have lost something on the way and i seem to be stuck in the place where i lost it. i feel anchored here and need to find a way to move again. there is not much time.

c series goes big for their 5th release and brings some big peak time mayhem!
c5, omen: doesnt really need much on an introduction, the famous track gets funked up, flipped over and goes flat out for a twisting and turning journey through the well known parts of the original and then bangs on from there in true c series style.
c4, lets go blimey!: lets go, it is techno but mashed up with blimey! exquisitely fused together and a perfect package as a peak time floor stomping monster, what more could you ask for, bring it on!

the third release on phonica records is a no-nonsense dancefloor burner from matt tolfrey and d. ramirez, with a stunning remix from lauhaus. >bounce to me< is an exquisitely stripped-back jack track, propelled along by clipped vocal samples, deep chord stabs and funked-up percussion - as the title suggests, its all about the bounce. thats really all you need to know: this piece of music has been built for the sole purpose of dancefloor devastation and will do the job every time. matt tolfrey is the boss of leftroom recordings and one of the uks most compelling young dj/producers, with releases on crosstown rebels and viva music among others. d. ramirez is of course the sheffield-based producer behind numerous hit tracks for labels like four:twenty and his own slave recordings. the flipside remix comes from underground hero lauhaus, a dutch producer whos made quite a name for himself with his muscular productions for labels like remote area and intacto. here he toughens and tightens tolfrey and ramirezs original >bounce to me< into a rolling techno groove, adding real drama and forward thrust with crisp hi-hats and stacatto percussion. the soundtrack to late summer has arrived. bounce!

watch out for this one!
analog mode presents portugals techno man at the moment, a. paul!

dynamic reflection will represent only the true spirit of pure techno, they will put only the quality stuff back on the dancefloor!

this release has the new single >100 mph< and 3 rad remixes. the original track rocks amped up vocals with a chicago house groove, and the remixes change it up completely. the ac slater remix adds a bit of fidget and steps up the dub, making it awesomely crunchy. ocelot switches it up and stretches the track into a 7 minute journey, adding a bit of a harder edge. finally, free blood takes things in a more digital direction and injects a slightly darker feel to the track. there s something for everyone on this 12 inch and you need to pick it up.

another superbly curated selection of rare and undiscovered gems from the world of afro disco as author of the hugely popular american athlete blog, mr les stache has become an invaluable resource for all eager disciples of the good groove, shining a light on the often forgotten tracks from an overpopulated genre. as a true afficionado, these edits and amends are done with plenty of reverence for the originals, without ever losing site of their need to work the floor aside form including a majestic rework of arguably the best afro disco track ever made kabbalas ashewo ara (retitled kabbooga loo here) we get two more deadly jams concocted from drums lalabye and john ozilas funky boogie as with the first two volumes, these are ludicrously limited (300 copies) so get busy!!

the techy side of blockhead shows its colours! championed by loco dice, you get the drill...

a temporary sabbatical from gigs was taken and the band wrote material for where were you when it happened in new orleans midtown district, where their rawboned compositions resembled the katrina-pummeled surroundings. with their girlfriends with them in as close to a stableenvironment as they d been in months, they were able to tap a darker, more personal side in songs like as noise, and hunt you down, with its mournful, organ drenched air belying monotonixs typical good time charlie posturing, while fulfilling the albums need for a climactic, balladic moment. where were you when it happened? finds monotonix visiting a greater diversity of places within their sound while still retaining their minimal appeal. mostly though, where were you when it happened works up a sweat with raw rock and roll, acid guitar licks and riffs, screaming choruses and, in general, the wildness of monotonix in a way that makes for repeated album listening (and pummelling). where most bands refine their production sound as they go forward, monotonix have reverse refined themselves, playing dirtier and more energetic to capture the lightning they are known for.

stroboscopic artefacts 1st vinyl release is an incendiary 2 track ep. label founder lucy gives us a visionary blueprint for the future stroboscopic artefacts releases, etching out the soundtrack for an apocalyptic club scenario. out of the a-sides dark, pulsing beats and itchy baselines, a granular voice rises up. krishnamurtis rasping vocal cuts through, creating a colossal techno track. the result is a hybrid of the physical need to dance fusing with the cerebral. amid resonant piano samples and utopian 60s strings, a crystalline question emerges: why dont you change? in the middle of a hazy, overcrowded dance floor this peak-time guerrilla track hints at a moment of epiphany. on the b-side dub man walking, lucys dub-roots background collides with his techno identity. the heavy drum machine structure is injected with obsessive dubby baselines and intersected by high frequency distortion. the track floats, the elements never fully solidify, instead they surge forward becoming ever more urgent. lucy mixed and arranged dub man walking live using his faithful mackie ms 1202 to keep the texture warm in an old skool way

nys underground celebrity, electronic obscurity and rare disco specialist william burnett (aka grackle, aka speculator) delivers an ep that truly defies any categorization and therefore will have a harder time to find its way into the stores usually packed with easily digestible pre-masticated dancefloor stew that comes with filing recommandations. the music on this record evokes images of mad peyote sessions held amidst dry and sandy landscapes. the original desert acid sounds like a jam machines and instruments would do when left on their own, unsupervised by humans. a wobbly and acidey synthline goes on a psychedelic journey with fuzzy guitar riffs, backed by a stompy almost tribal discobeat. düsseldorfs currently most interesting band musiccargo rework the piece into a cinematic krautdisco gem that floats on a loopy vibraphone drone, sprinkled with german and english lyrics. sombrero galaxy (aka cbs/intergalactic fm regular dj tako reyenga and his mysterious uk buddy jonny nash) take the track into cosmic realms (rare occasion where the term really fits) and their version could easily be interpreted as a vangelis tribute. the last track on the ep we are it is a slow 808 jam with druggy and spaced out fuzzy vocals, paired with equally druggy and fuzzy guitars. if you are a filmmaker and you need a song for a weird desert scene youd be an idiot not to consider this one the perfect choice.

soniculture welcomes a new artist to the family. bernard siefert, betterknown as nhar is known for his releases on labels such as mobilee, meerestief, plak and modelisme. his hypnotic sound is unique, adding at the same time fine tuned melodies and vocals, in this way, enriching the whole musical experience. with this release, nhar shows us a bit more energy, keeping the soul and exploring the feelings that characterize his productions, but making us dance even more than usual. this is an amazing piece of work from one of the most original producers of the new french techno scene. the a side begins with >derceto<, a very modern techno track but with an old school touch and an outstanding percussion arrangement. the hypnotic bassline is strong and involving and the vocals make it dirty, when needed. thinkfreak closes this side with a powerful remix, taking the energy to higher levels and making it a dance floor slammer for the craziest moments of the night (or day). with >owls are not what they seem<, nharshows us how hypnotic he can be. the track is filled with sophistication andthe production details are exquisite. this is electronic dance music at itsbest. dalessandro & expander present a version of >owls are not what theyseem< that is sexy and groovy and is for sure perfect for that special afterhour moment or simply when there is a special need for love.

no need to tell anything about this all time classic!! includes classic nyc 12inch mix!
