two berlin underdogs and a detroit ravemaster. a driving force in the very early frankfurt electronics since the late 80s, to hardcore acid in brooklyn in the early 90s, producing legends as carlos peron among many others along his way, adsx aka andre fischer might sound new to many but has been an active part of the underground electronic movement for the last 30 years. benji df aka hanoben is no newbie to the scene either and might have soundtracked your night if you were to be found at clubs like tresor or snax in the late 90s. together they recorded an ode to aural sex, its acid counterpart, and a genius sketch of a club banger. when label honcho capablanca heard the latter had little doubts about commissioning an extended mix to motor city s special forces gen. sharif laffrey aka thee activator, who needs little introduction to the discerning raver ears as the man behind instant acid classics turn it up and always, among others. after countless studio days and nights and endless versions (we stopped counting at 56th) sharif delivers what is possibly his best work to date, an unstoppable 12 minute dancefloor annihilator. to wrap such special release we asked legend alan oldham aka ur s minister of information aka dj t-1000, (also responsible for label designs for transmat, djax, submerge, pure sonik and a long etcetera) to create one of his classic artworks. capablanca deconstructs his center pieces for the fully printed sleeve, and everybody s.c.r.e.a.m.

jorge ciccioli is not a newbie anymore. he remixed kleinschmager audios >audio3< for rrygular, last year. and consistently in early 2011 he delivers his first techno-stomper. although with full focus on the dancefloor, >jawa< doesnt need any stereotype offbeat emphasis but throws around percussins in semiquavers. on the flip side there is no time for you to relax! the hypnotic winter solstice remix by tim xavier really knocks your socks off!

kevin m. kennedy aka fbk is escaping. escaping from the everyday struggles of life in columbus, ohio, usa. one of his escape routes is his music and when you listen to his tracks you can feel why. his music is emotional to the core, no matter if its powerful and heavily funky techno such as >flying hybrids< or dark and sinister straight electro like >chosen path<. every single sound and rhythm is pure fbk and will cause a frenzy on the dancefloor. having released on shakes frictional label as fbk and on detroit based label xplor as the sleep engineer, kevin is not a newbie in the techno circus. diametric. is proud to release the first new record from the expert escapist since 1997. why he remained below the radar for so many years is a mystery. fbk will have further upcoming releases on frictional soon. no digital distribution. limited to 320 handnumbered copies. save the vinyl.

with this new ep tom clark makes an impressive return to the highgrade release program. following a collaboration with marcus schatz and most recently with benno blome, he now comes back as a solo artist. after only a few beats, you’ll be sure to recognise his signature sound. tom needs surprisingly few elements to build a unique atmosphere and his matchless grooves. on the title track “scorpio“ we find a deep, rolling bassline and a slightly orientally influenced vocal, combined with the typically unique clarkish synth leads, and we’re ready to go. it’s a track that continually keeps the excitement moving while never letting the cat out of the bag, and more than deserves the a-side. then we come to “albino“, also featuring sparkling synths and rolling drums that create an impression of fluidity and an unhurried beginnings, but we also end up in a waterfall… who would have known!? in conclusion comes “sand flea“, as lively as a box of fleas, but not nearly as aggrivating! mister clark is again at his best, with a love for detail, an innate sence for strange sounds and an a significant quantity of leisurely energy, this tune also really hits the mark. this is not the work of a newbie who produces an aggressive sound to prove his talents. the result is the feature of this ep: seldom has an understatement sounded so fresh. + digital-only bonus track “12 notes“!

with his now second release on mauritius, marc vision might still be a newbie to the label, but definitely not to the scene. apart from being an experienced dj since ages with a deep bond to germanys superclub >tribehouse<, he can look back on diverse releases as vision & canedy (on scuba, avalanche, plusquam & hadshot rec.), vita (together with trance pioneer taucher on labels such as tracid traxx & on a mission), visiontool (together with marc o tool on andry nalins label superfly rec.) and finally as marc vision himself (on mauritius, poison, underworld & earregular rec.). >obsession< leaves no doubt being a sure floor filler. subtly but effective the track begins with a deep bassline and develops into a kooky rave-house-monster. >the finest< on the flipside tackles things deeper and more atmospheric, but when a bulky bassline suddenly says hello half way of the track, the unmistakable command is hands up!
