return of duffnote! an incredible miami ep showcasing the talents and wide range of genres that the label covers.

unearthly trance emerged from the nyc underground as a doom outfit and morphed into a distinct metallic beast on their new album electrocution. an epic, impassioned piece of work, electrocution oozes with mysticism and a palpable sense of purpose behind an imposing wall of gut level riffing, canyons of low end and pounding drums. unearthly trance give no quarter in their spiritual war and forges their own sonic path with the awe inspiring electrocution. unearthly trance has previously released two critically acclaimed full lengths on lee dorrians rise above records as well as a single on greg andersons southern lord records.

in the year of punk 1977, the jams exploded onto the music scene with this seminal debut album. the raw, unfettered aggression of the bands approach was well in keeping with the spirit of the times, but the heart of their songs and sound lay in the mod movement of the mid 60s. singer/guitarist paul weller comes off like a cross between joe strummer and the young pete townshend, bashing unreservedly through slow down, one of the r&b tunes that inspired the original mods. weller extols the virtues of frenzied dancing and nonconformist youth culture over the raging three chord attack of bassist bruce foxton and drummer rick buckler. the pure punk insouciance of his words and delivery is a perfect match for the raging but hooky arrangements, which basically consisted of the band walking into the studio and blazing through their live set. rickenbacker guitars never sounded so thick, and skinny ties never seemed less geeky.

marcashken is part of the new breed of techno, the past couple of years have seen him come into his own sound within his home the leftroom imprint. ashken treats his productions as a personal journey, an expression of his influences and his environment, never conforming ashken is making his own rules. this release brings a remix package of >root rot<, one of the gems on his debut artist album >have you seen my dancing shoes< out late january on leftroom. >root rot< gets a rework from three unique and gifted producers that all add their charm to the tracks

taken from the aptly titled sacrilege lp of remixes from 1997. here we have a 1-sided 12inch featuring carl craigs bladerunner mix. so hows it sound? well its one of those that never drops, instead building on a rapid fire set of hand-claps, some nice little filtered synth fills, a little bit of vocal. basically those elements twisted, turned and arranged in the way only carl craig can (or did in 97)

supported by laurent garnier, chloé, jimpster, martin landsky, gregor tresher, ewan pearson, sasha, didier sinclair, miss kittin, jennifer cardini, shinedoe… if you talk about the belgian electro house scene you have to mention olivier grégoire aka kolombo from namur. with countless highly respected releases on tigas turbo imprint, king kong records or systematic he collectedplenty of respect from the worldwide electronic community. now olivier donates us the next piece of qualtity in form of coda. and it seems that this man never sleeps because otherwise he could not have produced a loulou players remix with his production partner jerome denis?

sometimes, its still worth not to waste your youth with nonsense but to learn to play an instrument. like in the case of sebastian mullaert, who has learned to play violin, organ and piano, while his partner marcus henriksson rather came from kraftwerk and human league to electronic music. as son kite, the two swedes have already a well-known name in the psy-trance scene, and as minilogue, they now start to conquer the minimal and house world. with their rather unique sound, they manage the tightrope walk between minimal and trance and never allow us to put them into a drawer. especially with their debut on cocoon rec, minilogue present themselves in a different way, compared to their releases on traum or wagon repair. >jamaica< is a calm track at the first hearing and is perfect for building up a set. beginning with bird-like sounds, the track builds up slowly and quickly becomes very interesting and tricky, ramifies as organic as a climbing plant, and when the tribal sound emerges from the underground, this track has exactly what makes minilogue so special: organic matter and groovy sounds, worked into a minimal labyrinth with very much love for the details. all of that can also be found on the b side which seems to be more adequate for the morning hours, with its somehow spacey sound. with >jamaica<, mullaert and henriksson prove that they are floating on the very surface of the endless minimal ocean. and with their album >animals< being already in sight on cocoon recordings, one can be highly anxious of what is coming ahead, by minilogue and techno made in sweden

bbe records have teamed up with dj/producer mr thing, to dig deep into his extensive collection to compile a series of albums of rare and sought after breaks. this series reflects brilliantly on his dedication to digging for those untouched and unrivalled samples and breaks as you hear him use in his dj sets. as a dj, mr thing never fails to engage the crowd with his winning combination of hip hop and funk breaks spiced up with his legendary mixing and scratching skills. the first installment in the five part strange breaks & things series contains superb songs, some you ve probably never heard of, some which may make you go: i recognize this sample! because it was once used as the backdrop for a classic hip hop track. if you liked the legendary strange games compilation series on bbe compiled by the likes of kenny dope & dj spinna, you ll love strange breaks & things.

terry lee brown jr. – one of the most frequent names in plastic city labels history has convinced his audience and critics by always being different while remaining a unique character of the housy upper class. he succeeded changing topics and following the rule of never producing just one kind of music. the latest release at plastic city comes with a special announcement: terrys next album is in the pipe and this is an exclusive preview on the next chapter of delightful entertainment. the 12inch proves again terrys status as one of the few who are able to reinvent themselves everyday!

storming tune here and dj support by steve lawler, hernan cattaneo and armin van buuren!!

another bomb that will definitely not make it through airport security undetected. explosive kicks serenade a nasty acid line over a signature dalessandro-style vocal. this peak timer is no holds barred techno armageddon. new york based clink rec artist elon makes his debut appearance for the siteholder team with a storming remix. twisted effects, a unique take on the vocal, and a pulsating bass line define this hard-hitting approach. fearless in its pursuit and certainly without any room for prisoners, this re-working of >are you there< comes out of the gate sprinting and never lets down. another successful new york-chicago connection has been made. rounding out the ep, brian ffar follows up his highly successful >ballroom hustler< ep with a take on the single reflecting his cultivated production style. an atmospheric tech house approach reveals well-placed synths over the drawn out vocal from the original. but dont assume this is child s play, ffars kick drum isnt afraid to pummel a club systems subs. the avalanche inducing bass line that follows caps off this fifth siteholder record with a very clear message: >are you there< is serious business

incl. kollektiv turmstrasse mix, after a while of absence johnjon returns with his 2nd solo release. johnjon started his musical career in electronic music working together with experienced producers in the studio, but in the end it was never satisfying for him. so he decided to lock himself up in the studio and dont come out till everything is right. he just got out of there and delivers the this stunning track. meanwhile is hypnotic and moving, groovy and a little trancy but definitely emotional. the breathing pad cuts through and the small but define changes make everything fit together. a perfect combination of a catchy theme and a solid groove. the remix is delivered by kollektiv turmstrasse, already known from successful releases on labels such as connaisseur rec, diynamic, ostwind and musik gewinnt freunde. christian and nico (kt) took the pad and squeezed out a groovy houseline, fit it into their beats and added a little bit of funk outcome is a wicked release. it is released on the label >baalsaal<, the new sophisticated label, the public transport of emotions

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....)

flemming >king of the cut< dalum and moustache records are very proud to present the true 1984-1985 italo feel: 2 eps containing some of the most rare and obscure italo releases ever produced. most of the tracks never came out on 12 inch before! on vol. 1: paul rays superhit >my machine<, a 130 bpm straight forward high energy track, the vocal and instrumental edit. for the real italo lovers... only 500 copies available

the beginning of year three in the adjunct chronicles is marked by a 12inch by our own apendics.shuffle. kenneth james gibson has been bombarding the techno scene consistently for the past few years. u_derline, orac, friends of tomorrow, mos ferry, sunset diskos among other labels have served as the carrier for kens deadly weapons. remix duties are taken on by the one and only mathias schaffhäuser , a renowned techno superstar and the founder of ware records. there couldnt have been a better title than >no reduction< to literary describe this monster of a track - ken has unleashed the entire arsenal of his studio for the creation. stern synth patterns pizzicato their way through the track, deep sea signals ring in the background, distorted vocal snippets insist on taking >all the money<. energetic and magnetic dancefloor number dedicated to the real freaks. mathias approaches the rework with smooth drumming and a velvet bassline. the cheeky cabaret vibe however never settles: the diabolical pizzicato of the original returns and the voices continue their demands for (what all adds up to in the end) >no reduction<. oblivious filth brings yet another layer to this joint. beautifully crafted sounds mingle with electro-mechanical noises, layers of melting textures lure the listener into a late night wonderland

big with steve bug, jimpster, ewan pearson, james holden, kiki, sebo k, crock, marc romboy, agoria, mike monday, 3channels, fabrice lig, 2000andone, james flavour, pascal feos, philip sherburne,… big! plasmik – our connaisseurs for deep and oldschoolish techno tracks, were quite successful in 2007. their interswap release from april 2007 found its way in several top dj charts and on great compilations and mix-cds. due to this and also our celebration of our 20th catalogue number, we proudly present an extraordinary remixpackage, split into two parts. part 1 features supertubos in a remix by another king of oldschoolish techno – matt o brien. on side b, afrilounge gives mindpattern a special string treatment. part 2 has to be in no way inferior in the choice of the remixers. on the a-side, claude vonstroke goes with pitch it as deep as he has never gone before and on the b, perspectiv newcomer minz gives the dancefloor a lesson in hypnotizing state of minds

mothership transmission #4… todd bodine has been one of our favourite producers for a long time so we are very excited to be able to bring to you this ep on mothership. todd always brings a swinging groove that works for both minimal and house djs and this release definitely delivers the doughnuts. side a, >secret edge< will turn any stale room fresh and get everyones toes tapping and asses wiggling. its got elements of detroit, chicago, and berlin all wound up into a really nice party starter. you can never underestimate a fun grooving track thats easy to mix and fun to dance to. side b, >back to back< is a submariners dream with bubbling water sounds floating and popping over a low funk groove. this is the track for when you want to take it down a notch without losing any dance-floor magic. its a real dreamy affair with a fat bottom end. thanks todd!

from the deep forrest in the north comes another kebacid attack in the form of >falafalacid<! this follow up to 2004 global super smash mega hit >acid invader< leaves nobody untouched! another fantastic kebacid producition of saatana perkele and helvetes jÄvla skit! already in the recordboxes of dj sven, dj orontes, dj folkets, dj gullmars, göran fröström (skf), lotta lärkstedt (salesmanager) and many more!!! be aware of the kebacid! you never know when its lethal acid salsa will strike again!

>life is the only drug i wont ever give up<. this is probably the most life-affirming claim ever forwarded by ware- labelboss matthias schaffhäuser and its made to fit the party. and as hes being the guest on a very special label hes going all the way. totally in accordance with the wir-label-philosophy, the title track shows off lots of modern producing skills, never sticking to just one rigid idea but coming along with a whole bunch of attitudes. pop-induced vocals are artfully woven into minimal beats, housy strokes meet sound concrète, and the whole combines to one neverending track, leaving the elitist style ghetto behind and delivering itself to the pulsating life outside, leading to a truly beautiful work clearly thats one hell of a challenge for every remixer, but lovable atom smahing mathias kaden is the right man at the right place, as he knows how to deal with emotional content under the influence of the contemporary raw. his eleven-minute-opus tightens, focalizes, piles and moves around the original material, but without betraying its spirit. this remix seems larger than life but still maddingly gripping and you get the overwhelming impression that here every angle leads to another, every bit communicating. its a nation under the groove, all in one track, and its here to be heard

its time to introduce a new talent on the block c-system. operating from the sunny spain and one of his very first official releases was immediately charted by none other than dave clarke! alongside his contribution to the rotterdam based patterns, c-system also signed some impressive new from from his hand to adult (run by paul hazendonk). stephane signore supports this propelling dancefloor monster with a remix that will rock the crowd big-time!

brill electro pop / indy styled longplay album

quagmires third >artist ensemble< ep introduces the first four new artists to the labels roster. this quartet hails from dutch soil, william kouam djoko residenting in amsterdam as mical rhebess, pevanu and tim woestenenk living in the so called >backcorner< of east holland, near the german border. non of these young and talented producers released solo on vinyl before, which gives quagmire the absolute releasing debuts for these close friends of the label. william kouam djokos serialism repetition fills the complete logo side. this loopy bomb sucks you in a whirlpool of wet percussions and snareriffs. transitions are hardly recognizable and changing elements seem to continue. dynamic and delicate techhouse as never seen before on quagmire. tim woestenenks sunset love on the info side sets the elegant mood for this ep. microhouse in its purest form, stripped down to the most functional sounds. a big stab and a broken oriental stringinstrument give this track a incredible sense. timeless club music

lars is back with a lovely piece of music on his own label two faces. with his third release on two faces, lars introduces us to the classic side of house music. a1 is a chicago influenced house tune with a touch of disco. the hookline, the moody bassline, the vocal samples and the relaxed killer groove out of his swedish drumbox fit together perfectly and will let you move for sure. b1 is inspired by a roadmovie with never heard before rhythm n blues vocal samples and a tricky groove. it rocks from the very first seconds and surprises after the break with wonderful bell-like sounds. b2 is a technoid track which is based on one main loop which gets transposed over and over again and ends up in sweet harmonies and great chord progressions. all three tracks are inspiring and fresh modern clubmusic with a unique style. ready for your winter pleasure

limited one sided edition !! far out is just that: a track that goes the distance, but without pretension or unnecessary fanfare. more understated than your typical anthem, it cruises in stealth mode, winding a refined, percussive groove ever tighter, threaded onto a pattern of needle-nosed toms that glides almost unnoticed under your skin. unnoticed, that is, until the tracks main riff comes crashing down like an awning full of icicles, sharp and cold and heavy. but sebo ks sense of restraint is such that he never beats us over the head with it, so to speak. instead he lets the groove spiral on, tightening it as he goes and whipping up chilly little sinewave twisters along the way. you can leave your mittens at home, though, because theres enough heat in the rolling bass line to keep you warm all winter long

with a blend artpop-disco-industrial-techno-newwave-electro-go-go punk and live vocals this duo creates a distinctive, futuristic hybrid of dance. the compelling mix of electronic punk features both jan & ariels emotive vocals, adding a taste of yesterdays anarchist sarcastic flavor, but never interferes with the music. jan as progammer and composer uses as many analogue sounds as possible, bringing musicians into the studio, creating a virtual band. featured on various tracks of the up and coming debut album, >bang!< is the guitar mastership of the legendary east bay ray of the dead kennedys. supporting members are johann bley on drums (ex-member of kmfdm & juno reactor) jasper scholtz, bass guitar and vocals

back in the box is a brand new series from leading uk house label, nrk. taking the worlds leading and longest serving dj legends, b.i.t.b. invites them to plunder deep into their collections to those old house records that rocked the party time and time again, records that have since been left dormant on the shelves, waiting for the right moment to be dusted off (and this is that moment!). we re talking about those records that shaped and influenced a whole music scene, from that golden era of house music from the late 80s to mid 90s. a mix that will evoke great memories of lost nights on the dancefloor, b.i.t.b is the trip back in time you ve been waiting for.

great follow up to the first part !! these are four especially wonderful, deep, clear, kicking and pumping tracks. a picnic in the techhouse land you never want to end, so fresh, free and so complete. involved in this project are stefan mallmann (whirlpool sex), el farouki (plastic city), neurotron (deep records) and m.rahn (trapez, regular). these four people have found their place, a far away island of musical ideas, which has to be discovered

nice price deal !!! the a side is a killer lp only punk funk anthem from the sessions that spawned the legendary spasticus autisticus. this did appear once on 12 as a very rare uk only promo and now its lovingly remastered for a another go round the mulberry bush. beans in your jeans indeed! we move, possibly the funkiest of the visage tracks and a big cosmic play for baldelli. this piece of classic white boy funk is on a couple of increasingly rare 12s from back in the day but due to lacklustre mastering until now its never really sounded quite as good as it should do.

san francisco legend and international deep house don, miguel migs, returns from touring his latest artist album with another chapter in the nrk coast2coast series. a quality and seamless mix of polished house grooves, these double pack vinyl lps present some of the choice tunes on offer on his dj mix, including tracks & remixes from spiritcathcher, jimpster, lisa shaw, incognito, schmoov and many more

joel mull is more than a contemporary techno artist. he definitely will be known as one of few who more than rode but created the wave and will always be mentioned regarding the fact that he underlines the message that techno will never die! he made his choice in his early adolescence attending a music school and spending hours and days at the piano and keyboard. he is amongst the top 4 swedish electronic musicians with the likes of adam beyer, cari lekebusch and jesper dahlbäck. he started traveling around the globe more than a decade ago and quickly made himself well known as tasty bit of the electronic world with great dj-sets and astonishing live performances which are a must have seen even for the hardest critic. he is a quiet guy who learned his handcraft and evolved into a genius producer who incorporates all his listening experiences in his music. code red, drumcode, kanzleramt, inside records, primeevil, loop records, superstition records, svek, tortured records, turbo, underwater …are some of the platforms which aid him spreading the message

a little less than two and a half years after its conception—and close to 30 singles, one compilation, one mix cd and one sublabel later—berlins mobilee releases its first artist album. naturally, who better to represent the milestone than pan-pot, who so far have delivered five essential singles to mobilee, helping to anchor the ever-shifting sound of one of europes most exciting labels. in just two short years, with 10 singles (for mobilee and einmaleins musik) and lots of remixes, theyve become known far and wide for their distinctive, groovy, and above all ominous sound. pan-o-rama finds the boys stretching that sound in every possible direction: twisting, tearing, and using the shreds to drag a wide swath of techno history into the future (and, just maybe, to drag a few pieces of techno future back into the past). call it minimal if you must, but this aint no clickity-clack shit. you can hear the agonized gurgle of isolationist acid, reminiscent of plastikmans darkest nights. you can hear the percolating urgency of classic bleep techno. tried and true hardware collides with restless digital experimentation as dance musics dna worms its way into twisted new shapes. pan-o-rama is dark, thats for damned sure. eerie vocals that seem to come from within the listeners own head creep across the stereo field. throughout, restrained minor-key melodies conjure 21st century noir, and a relentless low-end rumble seems to suck up all the light around it

azucar recordings, imprint of dutch dj and producer dj madskillz founded in 2003. azucar had a couple of massive house anthems, like >caliente< and the >microfunk-pecan remixes< which had big support from the likes of roger sanchez, grant nelson, roog, erick e., gregor salto, and laidback luke. here comes the next brutal house tune with a catchy hook, ready to rock the dance floors

producer holger behn aka h.o.s.h. is back on stil vor talent with his third release and second 12 inch on oliver koletzkis imprint. his latest two tracks are all about house music, while always keeping a strict eye on the dancefloor. it starts with the tech-house anthem >grünanlage<, the name of a sunday afternoon open air in h.o.s.h.s hometown hamburg that he co-organises. the tune features a great clappy snare and some wonderful balearic guitar melodies, which swing over the fast loop. this tune is going to put a smile on your face wherever you are. on the flip there is >blaupause<, which translates as blueprint and is a dreamy housy pusher that keeps grooving with its synthie-stabs and warm bassline. later in the track h.o.s.h. adds an oldschool piano that pushes the track into another state with its drifting melody. it reminds us of so very many great rave moments. however, h.o.s.h. never gives in to the temptation of drifting off into cheese, stays cool at any given moment and keeps the seal of quality for his music very high. >blaupause< is a wonderful summery teaser that never explodes, but keeps imploding! h.o.s.h. once again does what he does best: delivering two wonderfully melodic tracks that fluctuate perfectly between house and techno. just the way we like it

made up sound constitutes finest broken detroit tracks of clear, crisp and sharp intensity . >sleepwalk< invites on a journey into an ocean of detroit techno sound: always holding you in line and on track, never wished to neither halt nor end. >699< logs misinterpretation of code, reports failed man-machine interaction caused and eventually leaves both as audible result. subsolo continues true techno music coming from d for den haags dave huismans a.k.a. 2562. fresh tunes anyone? there you go

imagination of the shape draws a new skyline while not abandoning the roots of the city. the tracks this time obviously point towards the future of course a bright one! the mixture of established artists and newcomers declares that plastic city has many great names and artists inside the city limits and nevertheless searches for new flavours, techniques, sounds and people but this time something is really different. all artists mentioned on the double 12inch compilation come up with neverseen creations which all have a new flavour and perfectly fit together. imagination of the shape sounds like science fiction house music something you never heard before. high quality tech house touches new spheres and instantly grabs the listeners attention. approved artists as terry lee brown junior, the timewriter, greg parker, rob pearson, colin dale or eddie richards prepared a row of pleasant surprises as they left the old centre of their city. slightly more minimal but still housy and groovy the tracks are connected to each other as it has always been greatly compiled at plastic city. theres much consideration behind the artists works as well as behind this chapter. imagine the shape imagine the future

zimmermann alias jens zimmermann aka tyrell corp. aka dj gargamel is constantly changing yet always the same: a damn good producer. from his early days when he whipped up tracks by culture beats and out of the ordinary into dancey frenzy with well-known german producer torsten fenslau, to his drum n bass-fuelled moments of technical innovation, jens has never been one to stand still. constantly reinventing hilmself, he always managed to keep things ticking, making him one of the most sought-after producers in the late eighties and throughout the nineties. now, in 2007, after years of noise research and sound sculpting, he is re-emerging as zimmermann which stands for >new german minimal sound<. after three much-celebrated releases, aptly called zimmermann #1, #2 and #3 on room recordings, which were severely hyped up by germany s house fraternity, and releases and remixes on boxersport, k2,and hifreaks as well as on harthouse mannheim, the future is looking bright for jens
