following the success of his last lp, chronicles of never, and his recent track jedwab on nick curlys 8bit imprint, marcin czubala makes his return to mobilee with mezcalinna. continuing his string of exceptional releases bearing his unmistakable signature marksùslinky, undulating grooves full of bizarre twists and turns that ceaselessly continue to surprise the listenerùmezcalinna is comprised of two tracks whose continuities only serve to highlight the ways in which they differentiate themselves from and act as complements to one another. day 1 begins with a heavy bass line echoed by a stuttering percussive beat that guides the rhythm until the vocal chants and kick drum drop. accented by occasional drum fills and cymbal crashes, the track reaches its climax with the entrance of a lone piano chord that, despite its initially alienating presence, ultimately serves as a means of melding and unifying the tracks constituent components. if day 1 is an early morning track, day 2 provides its counterpart as a nighttime dance floor stormer with a darker sound and haunting, reverb-laced vocals. also beginning with a splattering of percussion but taking a decidedly somber turn with dissonant synthesizer stabs and an eerie vocal loop that shadows the track from beginning to end, rhythm and creative use of contorted vocals lead the way as this track zigzags in a way that only marcin czubala can make music do

peter kruder is one of those emblematic names that lead a whole decade and inspire myriads of djs, producers and clubbers all over the world. while he enjoys unprecedented success with kruder & dorfmeister and crossed into the platinum range (selling 1 million copies of the k&d sessions album), he never lost track of the underground. probably his stellar career would never have happened exactly this way if there wasn’t the other kruder: the adventurous dj, the deep producer, the challenging a&r at g-stone, the producer behind dj hell’s highly acclaimed “teufelswerk” album. in 15 years peter kruder has done only 3 singles under his own name though. when you get your ears around “chordal” and “law of return” it becomes totally clear why this rare outing happens on macro. kruder meets his macro debut full on modernism - showcasing his deep, dark, dancefloor grounded side. with a crisp harmonic sequence reminiscent of tchaikovsky’s nutcracker suite, “chordal” hijacks brains on the dancefloor with its vacuum depth and sizzling details. “law of return” on the other side is a kruder signature take on deepness - solemn chords wrapped around a hypnotic groove give you tears of joy. a masterpiece!

this release is the first part of a remix series, which will bring the mellow atmosphere of alifs album to the club floors and lift it to another level. chloe impressively emphasizes her experimental potential by remixing alif trees reality in a quite dark, but still pushing way. different layers of vocals decorate the rather broken minimal house track and transfer it to a floor filling anthem. the renowned dutch producer-/dj-team tj kong & nuno dos santos already demonstrated their ability to create soulful but still deep and pushing house music. through their past releases on compost black label, such as the tranentrekker/dropout û maxi or the single merging which features vocals by house legend robert owens, the international demand for all kinds of collaboration with the talented tag team increased noticeably.

finally, sebastian boschs debut single wake up appears. you can expect a mix of demanding tech-house and melodically vocals from the a-side. the tracks, which one is called ceasless and worked out by sebastian boschs himself and his dj friend jano brook, stand out through their clearly structure. high spirits and positive energy completes the summerly feeling which you and hear and never forget on the b-side.

apendics.shuffle’s elegance & malice ep has been reworked by two great talent’s the master of minimalism thomas melchior & ransom note’s adultnapper, both artists have expressed there interpretations to the highest order. adultnapper has taken a darker path, raw & steady drums keep you grounded whilst disassembled voices and eary strings make you realize things are going to get weird. there is a constant hook in the background that sounds like the noise of a sleeping monster but as it gets louder you know it’s about to wake and it does, throwing you backwards in a totally different direction. melchior’s remix takes you on a different journey one that you never want to end. lush melodic sound’s and stunning percussion with deep soulful vocals keep growing and growing drawing you ever nearer all the time never letting you go.

the junkies style has continued to evolve over the years under the influence of various genres of electronic music, ranging from deep soulful house to techno and everything in between. the junkies production and remix work have been fundamental in pushing them forward both as artists and dj s. the duo just never seems to stop releasing and remixing tracks, which have gained much support from many of the world s top jocks the junkies are enjoying a string of stellar releases and chart topers , including the hugely successful d-mode ep a collaboration with rawthentic music head honcho, carlo lio. today one thing is very clear.plenty more is still yet to come from the junkies

the long way from sunny adelaide, australia comes this strong 4-tracker by sonny fodera, made to please all our house needs. kinky movement deliver the icing on the cake with their remix.

part 3 of the la leche compilation series!! tracks by wally lopez, alexander dennon and chris lake!!

what a manifest for deep house no bonds to minimal, no rave anthem, no disco revival. just tidy tunes, where the soul is always immanent. in this respect, a track such as we never grow up is a subtle misunderstandingn, because subsky, he is already. all three tunes use elements of dubknowledge. the delays and synths are more expansive than usual. especially æspacey sense is craving for open-airs and sunsets. support from osunlade, scope, dj yellow, spiritchaser, tim white, sammy rock, henri kohn, santorini, dean serafini & more!

the groundbreaking black album!! produced by bob rock!! includes enter sandman, the unforgiven and nothing else matters!!

in a subterranean tunnel, halfway between las vegas and new york is a small after hours venue where the walls are covered in red velvet and the floor littered with dreams and broken promises. over the soundsystem is the trace of a groove, deep and stark, cut into a vinyl that was already worn down before it was played the first time. welcome to the afterparty that never finishes. be careful where you put the drink!

first extract of his forthcoming album alone, words in a bottle sits right where we like to sit: at the border between house and techno. it s got the funk, the rhythm, the tribal beats and bassline that make you move. and its got the techno soul too. it s got the devil inside, but still feeds your mind with atmospheric waves of deepness. on the flipside, rodriguez jr., one half of french techno celebrities the youngsters, delivers the kind of remix you usually dream of but are never sure you re gonna get. it s a funky dark techno affair, with a killer hook.

nice price deal !!! essential & deep album by the man monoder aka jussi pekka! timeless beauty ! monoder. born in the cold north among industrial warehouses, people wearing only gray and random rabbits crossing the streets. his home town has two-lane streets which were made for the mass movement that never happened. physically close to civilization but mentally light years away. with the economic regression hitting hard, the town is filled with unemployed and old people wandering the streets and trying to find out what went wrong. like zombies of a mental desert. monoder. though the name sounds familiar, he has nothing to do with italodisco or electropop. the music, as the name, is filled with cold, stripped down and hypnotic atmospheres. taking you on a trip filled with hunger, cold breeze, forests and frozen tundra. the studio is on the roof-level of abandoned rubber factory, where disillusioned entrepreneurs try to get their daily bread doing what ever. moist pushing from the sealing and walls. water dripping during the mixdown. someone pulling cargo in the hallway.

stanley anscorm has finished the follow-up to battle beyond the sun. you can expect two epic tracks on this nearly 30 minutes record. although the tracks are based on identical compositional material, they shine in very different color. the black side is of high density and impresses with remarkable bass figures which seems to grow on the fundamental principles of low frequencies. these figures are easily carrying loads of percussions and even an orchestral set of horns which does not seem to be from this world. the white side can be understand as a lighter interpretation of the same topic and it is thrill of its own to discover the intersections between the two tracks. sure, this music is nothing you listen to in an elevator - stanleys art demands attention, there is no doubt about this - but the reward you get if you listen or dance to it with an open heart is of a kind you might never come in contact with somewhere else.

excellent release by mastermind delta9, superb industrial hardcore/ darkcore 12, must have for all hardcore heads out there

enigmatic producer kaºpar delivers 4 tracks which vary from punchy electronics to breezy house. first track, in the club comes in a wicked gerd remix and moves forward with a driving, deep bassline aided and abetted by punchy drums, fluttering rhodes and kaspar & his friends tripping, stoned & abstract vocals. it s an 6 minute opus which navigates a shifting array of predominantly instrumental passages, featuring some fine solos and never tiring before its sudden end. house of cards and calvary centre themselves much more on kaºpar s versatile ability to create pumping house that leans to the new york sound and float between house, jazz and soul. the whole affair plots a course through a constellation of styles suitable for both home listening as well as dj-play. this is house, not the lazy off the peg kind, but music which lives up to its name!

the faint return in 2009 with remixes by some of their favorite artists. das glow re-imagines “mirror error” as only he can. members of the faint have been playing das glow in their dj sets since they first heard the music on institubes. djedjotronic has been one of the faint’s favorite boys noize artists, and the remix of “machine in the ghost” on this release shows djedjotronic in rare form, focusing on the spirituality of the lyrics. tensnake’s inclusion on this package came at the suggestion of boysnoize rec. label head alex ridha. the faint’s manager, joel mark, comments: ” when i heard these tensnake mixes, i left them on repeat for hours. battle hymn for children has always been one of our favorite songs on fasciinatiion, but tensnake was able to take it to brand new areas that we never would have imagined. i could listen to a 30 minute version of this remix. ” nice

some would say the chicken lips label is long overdue, but lipservice is worth the wait as it promises the very best from augmented cl clan of dean meredith, andy meecham, stevie kotey and johnny spencer - a collective who have remixed just about everyone, spawned a thousand copycats and destroyed a few floors in the process. the inaugural lipservice release sees the chaps unleash zeefungk, one of their most popular and rare guises. the a-side is occupied by >robot eyes< - a splendid slice of electro-disco-funk which is vintage chicken lips. acid bass and loose drums combine with keys which progress wonderfully to create a really special piece of dancefloor tomfoolery. next up is >feast of freeks< (stevie koteys tape edit), a new edit of a track featured on the bands now-classic >extended play< album but never released as a 12inch. the bearfunk main man and all round gent delivers a tweaky, driving uptempo disco monster which climaxes in some trademark kotey madness. >robot lips< closes the packages and displays more of the guys unreal keyboard work as the groove stays steady but the hands go hyper. riddled with vintage synth work, >robot lips< is heads down business and no mistake.

a selection of tracks that have doing the rounds on digital and cdr over the past year or so but never made it to the black gold. all serious party bangers here that have seen support from the likes of derrick may, paul mac, mark williams and of course sims himself!

shit hot release from the super consistent sex tags crew !! footnotes was the bergen, norway based label run by bjørn torske with only two releases, the late 1997 house classic and collectors item “haribo” by erot and the way too underrated dub-house 12” “farlig fiffus” by krisp. in 2002 the laqcuers for the third release were cut and all ready for the press, but for some obscure reason it never made it to the actual pressing. in the end lacquers were demolished and the mastertape got lost. several years later the mastertape showed up in a tower of old tapes and mastercuts. recovered by the sex tags mania crew, now seven years after it’s origibnal releasedate, doc l junior’s two classic and brilliant house and disco tracks are ready for a proper release. as a tribute, a longing for old days, sex tags mania will releases footnotes 3 in april 2009..

please welcome the first record by z-schallplatten and attila jahanvash since 2005. it is called >shemshak ep< and contains four tracks by attila himself. times have changed in the mean time but attilas constant producing qualities still remain on a high standard.

if there s one lesson we have learned from 2008, it s that techno is not nearly creepy enough. on creep ep, germany s kevin over injects pitch-black dread into the heart of his distinct brand of techno. steamrolling bass-lines, droplets of toxic rain, and ghostly sirens all coalesce into swinging, propulsive grooves that stretch into a never-ending night. mr. over demonstrates his knack for creating arrangements that are both melodious and spacious, crafting an almost seven minutes ride through some of the most banging and infectious techno tracks to date, not to mention some dubby business on surge that would leave lee perry envious. at its most compelling, creep ep paints a picture of a raging warehouse party at the edge of your wildest dreams. including killer remixes by pascal vert and john lagora

highly addictive grooves and elements of house, techno, jazz, downtempo and even breakbeat melt together and thus you can never expect a certain category of sound û but theres an important ingredient for all of his works: emotion! from early beginnings until the present the musical ideas from terry lee brown junior had great impact on what we now call >tech-house<. as a pioneer and central player of the tech-house scene he succeeded in getting and remaining one of the most requested producers and djs worldwide. especially in the u.s.a. and great britain he established himself as archetype for nearly every following production or name in this division.

khainz aka simon schwendener from switzerland delivers a quality 2 tracker and gets remix assitance by greenbeam & leon and exercise one!!

following the phenomenal success of volume 1 was never going to be easy, but pat les stache strikes again ! his informative and well respected american athlete blog has become an addictive and 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 these four tracks shine a light on less well known, often lp cuts from household names like john davis & nightlife unlimited to obscure acts like shîtan. all lovingly drawn out and twisted into new arrangements by a man who certainly knows his craft

behind this german-sounding pseudonym hides a lyrical, subtle and ambitious techno. mondkopf reveals on this ep his most federative facet with a tracklist in which immediacy never sacrifices imagination. this combination of a techno basis, trancy hooks and electronica sound processing make these nuits sauvages (wild nights) ambivalent, conquering and melancholy. la dame en bleu, his major piece, is already an underground hymn. les oiseaux de balthazar, mixes vocal pads, bells and birdcalls in a fantasy techno universe on a dynamic tempo. the result, once again, sounds absolutely unique. nuit sauvage softens the layers to emphasis on crunchy riffs and strong kicks, to finally come back to an epic dimension, always around in mondkopfs songs. remix side, matzak got hold of the very mental christmas, keeping its electro spirit.

cynosure flag ship artist and label navigator mike shannon reaches into his archives and selects the much-anticipated “the box ep.” “the box is open” was always a highlight of many of mr.shannon’s dj sessions and live acts. this cut delivers nostalgic, old school of detroit, soulful, techno jack. a ton to digest there but there really is no other way to sum it up. adam marshall graces the ep with a stormer of a remix. taking things a step further, adam really explores a different use of the chords given to you in the original. a smooth kicking set of drums and ever elevating sequences of synth keep you on your toes never really knowing exactly when things will drop. definitely a production trait that adam is best known for and it never fails on the floor. howie mangel

deepgroove aka grayson shipley & lee pattison from bristol have crafted their skills at venues like bristols seminal lakota, emerging with a sound that incorporates a hefty measure of eclecticism within a framework of deep and twisted tribal grooves. never fearing to tread a different path when it comes to firing a crowd, their performances marry a healthy degree of contempt for convention, to an obvious reverence for the original precepts of house music. using the 4-deck format, not as a tool for ostentatious displays of mixing prowess, but as a template for experimentation, deepgroove throw everything at the crowd, embarking on sonic voyages that range from the sultry to the surreal, with the funk never being too far from the surface. coming from a strong musical background growing up around jazz musicians in west london, jamie anderson also had a love for electronic music and the art of mixing records which has been with him ever since the early electro and hip hop days

since the early releases from the mid nineties, every muscial statement made by this man must be investigated. never one to put a step wrong, the sonic mind sound became instantly unique, raising the awareness of the techno community of what lay between detroit & chicago - kalamazoo.in the 21st, now residing in poland, the d knox sound continues to develop. whilst maintaining the acute instinct for getting all elements of tracks in beautiful balance for the maximum techno funk & groove, each track carries a lightness, maybe even translucent quality of sounds so characteristic of his style. once simple question - do you have a sonic mind

following on from 2006s debut lp path of the gods, arne weinbergs second album will take you on a musical passage from alpha to omega and demonstrate the diversion of arnes palette of sounds. too many modern techno albums feature just a collection of tracks with no real story to tell, arnes second album aims to be more than just that and pushes further the boundaries of modern techno music. from the dark and mystic feel of everlasting to the floor shaking grooves of nightstalker and eclectic spiral or the deep electro influenced ambience of synthetic dissection and with trembling hands this album has it all.

reissue of album from 1975/a satisfying dramatics collection that includes their revised, campy version of me and mrs. jones, which had remained a staple of their live shows. astrology was riding high in the mid 70s, and (i m going by) the stars in your eyes provided fodder for astrological discussions as the guys poo poohed the differences in personality traits associated with the signs. a good balance of fast and slow tunes helps make this album a winner. good things dont come easy and never let you go are two frantic dancers that chug along faster than a speeding locomotive, while trying to get over losing you succeeds in treating losing your lover in a positive, uplifting way. the guys must have been loaded with material to keep this one off a 45. likewise for the aching, painful i cried all the way home, one of tony hesters best compositions, and easily the best ballad on the album.
