excellent deep house album. andy vaz s straight vacationing, his first full-length artist album, since the 2006 release of repetitive moments last forever…, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but they ll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring house music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call house.

rosa valle really are that unique and wide reaching a band - incredibly catchy intricate tunes that are not afraid to swing from serene to blistering. impossibly young and impossibly talented, the bare fact that this ep was recorded only a few months after the band formed, is jaw-dropping. exploratory, without ever being pretentious.

carefully caressing your back whilst whispering sweet nothings into your ear, pillowtalk join the life and death family with their modern dance soul hybrid, >the come back ep<. despite the name, its actually a debut ep -- and one that quickly establishes pillowtalks unique sound as an important voice in the new generation of contemporary dance music. already getting serious play (and props) from a wide range of djs, from the deep & soulful wolf + lamb and soul clap crews all the way to the banging bass centric justin martin, >the come back< finds life and death once again crossing the conventional genre descriptions with a true dancefloor bomb that everyone can get behind. imagine motown and classic doo-wop blended with a modern dance sensibility and you may start to get an idea of the pillowtalk sound. but its better to stop imagining and just have a listen because what these guys are doing is so genuinely unique, its not an easy one to pigeonhole with words and genre titles alone. the ep includes >the come back<, >soft< and >long lost friends< as well as a life and death remix of >soft<. put together in the life and death laboratories it brings a darker, deeper take on this beautiful and already incredibly sentimental dancefloor serenade.

supported by carl craig, donato dozzy, ness, joel martin (quiet village), andrew grant, john daly, paul nazca, claudio fabrianesi, neel, cosmic metal mother, chembass,metrica, hector pizarro and more.
a very special vinyl that underlines the vision and the elasticity of the origin of this label. in this ep commodity place perfectly represent their sound, a new age psychedelic electronic sounds combined with live instruments played. distant atmospheres.
the remix of the title track is signed by the labels owner fabrizio lapiana. his version is perfectly good on the dancefloor to appreciate the atmosphere created by the original. engaging, happy and sad .. not heavy and with something resembling atmosphere coming from a part of the old school in detroit. a real journey into the sound!

aux 88 gives its fans yet another treat the original mix previously not available on vinyl!

geno is pleased to present our second release from jonny cruz. jonny hails originally from san juan, puerto rico but currently splits his time between berlin and miami. you may already know him from his deep tech house releases on cocoon, vakant, dame, and my favorite robot.
the sugar lips ep is a sleek and sexy tech house record made for the dance floor. sugar lips simmers and pulses. these are lips you would not mind kissing. the flip side features lati for another functional yet sophisticated dance floor bomb, alfaguara. transparent and playful synths and a deep organic bass define alfaguara. we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

james din a4 is the master of a stumbling, stubborn mpc techno style >made for dancefloors which have not been invented yet< - as a reviewer of his pingipung album in 2009 wrote. these two tracks mark the end of the series, and they do it with a playfulness and in the best of humours. for djs who like to break the rules.

these words are in the deepest part of douglass greed and the approach to his debut album. he allows his heart to lead, the better to look where it goes. therein hes distributing straight dope, however, in the sense of emotional impact – dance floor dictation it is not. greed crafts music that serves up euphoria for your mind on the terrace, mas- sage table, train or car trip and so on. a timeless effect stretches along the borders... an enduring touch, and to remain in the mind for seasons to come is his concern with this album. this is more weeping or laughing in the mirror rather than admiring the physical. douglas discusses not the luxurious but rather simplicity, in order to serve a sophisticated >author-future-pop< for the club under the bedspread. his fondness for other forms of musical self-realization shimmers on all of his releases up to now. on his own album, he expresses this passion to the fullest. the inclination for sensible beauty in the dark plays as the greed signature, a central role. featuring musician friends such as mooryc (poznan /polen), pascal bideau (a frenchman in london), kemo (a ger- man-hawaiian in new york), ian simmonds (uk) and delhia (jena), greed casts twelve expressive pulse beats of pure greed cosmos.

fantastic debut 12 inch from this d.c. electronic group with will eastman, outputmessage & micah vellian. an upbeat vocal house song with a french disco-style intro and feel. the song is an upbeat, hypnotic, piano-laden tune, set on a sparse, almost melancholic backdrop, while outputmessage lends a subdued, soulful vocal performance. perfect for the summer and a potential club anthem. original and radio edit mixes. opening for thievery corp in d.c. fyi: this single is not available digitally for another 3-4 weeks.

the a-side contains acid snow. a raw, leftfield acid house ode to new york in 2011, acid snow speaks to the young men with a future and tells them not to delay, the city is waiting. fuelled by classic 303 tweak and propulsive analog drums, acid snow plateaus in a guitar-heavy finale that conjures the spirit of the citys no wave sound – acid snow is no wave house, no house, acid rock, acid not acid, armando on no new york, sonic youth at the warehouse in chicago. out of love for the future, it lays down dynamite on the cornerstone of tradition.

>they were from downtown, somewhere in soho and boy did they love that drum machine of theirs...< following the stellar trip down 80s lane with the bicep boys, mystery meat returns with two rip-roaring edits from soho808, another rising duo, but this time from across the pond in nyc. these fine gents have been causing an absolute ruckus over the past few months or so following appearances on soul claps social experiment 002 mix (not to mention doing an awesome podcast for soul claps acclaimed series) as well as jamie jones fabric 59 mix, berlins dikso imprint, and being featured on the wurst music ever compilation due out this fall. big tings a gwan to say the very least! here we see the chaps head into edits territory, well sorta. to call these edits is quite an understatement. soho808 give a serious overhaul to two songs of discos past, adding additional instrumentation and tweaking the arrangement big time. first up to bat is trouble and strife, an amazing, slow-burning take on one of the most famous of songs from the past couple of decades. trust us, you cant resist! flip it over for a loopy counterpart, low-slung, sultry female vox and all. mmmm, well bring our meat to suzys bbq any day!

oxford/london/leeds based newcomer graphics is responsible for the first release on the long gestated granholme label. brian eno was once quoted as >not wanting to contribute to the glut of cds< in the world. granholmes ambitions as a label are modest, but if we can do anything to detract from the glut of painfully beige electronic music available in 2011 then that will be considered a small victory.

super limited dj promo from the new techno supergroup ! black label, hand stamped / stickered copies . features stunning plaid remix ! a treat for all blueprint fans here - a limited 1st edition dj promo of forthcoming material from the soon to land and much anticipated lp from new artist >the fear ratio< aka techno faves mark broom and james ruskin. this great 12inch will be officially released after the lp / cd has dropped in a few weeks but for now you get to enjoy an exclusive remix, of morning blues from plaid backed up by an exclusive deadhand (broom & ruskin) remix of guv three. both tracks will appear on the cd version but not the vinyl version of the lp so be sure to grab em while you can..

borrowed language returns with their third installment of genre agnostic electronics. following the explosive release of unltd & israel vines >distance no object< ep (featured in millie & andreas superb lwe podcast, and charted by the likes of dj pete & grovskopa) was no easy feat, but jeff pietro proves to be more than up to the task with this brilliant 2-track 10 inch. as with earlier releases on borrowed language, this effort exemplifies the continuing refinement of the labels aesthetic. while some influences are clearly detectable, this is not just cannon fodder, there is enough attention to detail and panache on display here to distinguish pietros take on techno/bass music from his peers. the results are polished, but not without sharp edges, brutal, but elegant, functional, but not faceless.

abdulla all of a sudden appeared on the scene with his label... and a couple months later he pops by again with this 2nd twelve. trippy deep gritty techno tracks from this guy thats clearly not aiming to be the next most popular producer in the resident advisor poll. uncompromising tracks that must be played out loud in a dark basement style setting with loads of smoke and strobo. raw techno just as we like it!

two track ep from unknown source by and the artists formerly known as 19.454.18.5.25.5.18! fond of rae is a crazy monotone techno track as we havent heard before. so freaking hypnotic that you think you hear sounds and changes which are not there... or maybe they actually are!? relentless and banging with no mercy! skudge turns it into speed bomb and gets it functioning for most techno floors with their effective and classy remix style. limited release

riccardo rizza is an italian dj and producer who has already attracted a lot of attention with some of his productions. on the 5th mono recordings release he gives a good impression of his talent. the release is rounded up by two remixes of chris wood and felix neumann.

played and supported by regis, norman nodge, luke slater, jonas kopp, perc, dvs1, samuli kemppi, adam x, dimi angelis, jeroen search, markus suckut, rolando, pfirter, slam, edit-select, cassegrain, par grindvick, audio injection, tim xavier, drumcell and more. the m_rec ltd, has become one of the most interesting labels in the world techno scene after only eight releases. labels owner is max m! this time he shows an original track, pure sound signed m_rec ltd. a journey with a very deep sound. something that comes from his background, a walk through detroit, birmingham and berlin. a rhythm that is not heavy, repetitive riff that nullifies any inhibitions. it s definitely evil, its a reminder of the deep and pure techno.the first remix is signed by shifted (mote evolver)! one of britains most important artists on the scene. the sound becomes more intense and repetitive. the rhythm takes on a form of drum and hi-hat, classic techno. effects on riffs, amplify everything and they turn the track into a totally hypnotic pleasure. ascion (repitch / drumcode / synewave) is the artist of the second remix. being a promising youngster he has now become a reality. the sound is industrial, but without a heavy rhythm, more like background noises. reverb and effects that cancel themselves suddenly. the riff from far away is almost unrecognizable. a version definitely carefully devised and researched.

here comes, well, certainly not the record to turn your party upside down. the first lurker release brings two raw and sluggish instrumental rides through deep slowmotion territory. young talent babok shows us how to move that midnineties downbeat spirit into an adequate place for 2011, his mysterious djurh combines a strongly fragmented rhythm section and a distracted piano from somwhere below.
on small window, nic & jaq manage to hold the balance between early fall romantics and mid winter darkness,reaching the goosebump-o-meter s full scale with an intense samplesound and a thick drumset.

this ep was formed with a concept in mind that involves a natural phenomenon occurring in various / different fields of science and nature - anti-parallelism. as the word suggests, anti-parallelism describes the natural relationship between two occurrences, objects or even non-material things, that are virtually identical and yet oriented in different directions. during the time the music was made i was researching natural phenomenons like this one. naturally, this became part of the nucleus, fabric and inspiration for this work. in genetics, for example, if the >antiparallelity< is corrupted during the process of dna replication it is called a mutation. this mutation can be anything from totally inconsequential to critical for the survival of the whole living organism. a double helix of dna contains two helixes, that are naturally anti-parallel to one another. in physics this could be two of the same objects moving through space and time in opposite directions - just like the instruments or parts of a beat in electronic music production. so metaphorically speaking, anti-parallelism holds a natural balance to keep it safe and stable. although this might sound all very conceptual and theoretical this music is obviously just what it is - it is not intended to teach math, physics or biology in any way. the above mentioned aspect has simply found its way through my head and might have led to a piece of music that somehow, at least for me, is connected to these thoughts. it might evoke something very different for you

brilliant new album from mad scientist-style production genius maurice fulton! chopped-up dubbed-out echo-drenched percussion and globular bouncy p-funk-meets-dubstep bass lines collide to create future boogie-not-boogie from outer space!

the third ep from laak on austere is very much in the same vein as the labels ethos – raw, profound underground house music! with the past releases on austere getting props from players such as jus ed, keith worthy, steven tang, anton zap, malcolm moore (altered moods), deep space orchestra, homepark, pjotr (ethereal sound), area/m50 (wave) and dj spider, this ep will not disappoint the heads so dont sleep on this!

ltd clear coloured vinyl
just below steel and grain you will find vakula in the list of top ukraine exports. not one but two shevchenko releases this time around! these sound absolutely massive on the soundsystem ... intense dub pressure on the a-side with an epic bergheim-style percussive techno track on the flip that weighs in at over 13 mins!! pure, analogue, undulating house music! mastered strictly for vinyl.

the latest jett records release comes from hi freaks and rotary cocktail artist larsson with two original cuts on the vinyl, >full flavour< and >you can try that< and also a digital bonus >white leaf<. >full flavour< is a techno and hypnotizing track fitted for the dancefloor. on the remix patrick kunkel injects dub and reggae atmosphere and gives a jamaican smoke taste to the original. on the flip the original of >you can try that< smells the summer walk in the fields with a fresh touch of jazzy wind. lownza goes deeper on the remix adding some dirty grooves which transports us directly from green grass to grey streets. last but not least larsson offers a digital bonus track which perfectly relax your body and mind...

the jivers is a production duo formed by the two french djs/producers don pascal and fred spider. having not known each other before, their paths first crossed when both of them had moved to barcelona in 2007. soon they discovered their common love for deep and soulful music ranging from jazz, funk, brazil to nu-jazz, broken beat or house. their debut single >do what< has already been featured on the jazz&milk breaks compilation and received amazing feedback and spins from djs all over the globe and was brought to an even broader audience after being included on several compilations such as >saint germain des pres cafe<. now the song is being re-released in form of the do what ep including a brand new track called >move on girl<, again featuring the unmistakable voice of anqui and remixes by dj moodz, don pascal and fred spider. the jivers music can be described as a dance-floor oriented fusion of jazz elements with modern beat productions including the colorful and melodic vocals of anqui.

wow! what a year the wolf music crew are having. every release gets better and better. each time serving up a unique new offering from a variety of artists all with one thing in common: extremely high standard of production. all too often labels release good but not great music but wolf music is a testament to what searching high and low for the freshest artists with the best skills can really achieve. wolf ep 009 is no different. one often talks about real class produces and labels and buzz names and the next big thing … but only do a handful of labels ever live up to the manufactured hype they seem to receive. wolf music not only lives up to it but indeed outshines it. this ep is a must have for any dj/music connoisseur who truly knows their trade.

basti pieper was born in hessen / germany and open his first chapter in its electronic existence in 1999. 2003 he became resident at the u60311 in frankfurt and the room106 in darmstadt. soon he wanted to be active not only as a dj but also as an organizer in the nightlife. meanwhile, he has organized over 200 events s and with its relevant and sound great guest artists brought the clubs to the boil. 2007 he founded his label herz ist trumpf . under the same flag he creates the sublabel herz ist trumpf subtil and released his first production loop the day - pieper & dalinger in 2008. 2011 he became a new artist on plastic city and his latest release “heart of the sun” will be release now on plastic city.

the second mercury ep - and we dont need to introduce the guys anymore for sure. from brodinski, dj mehdi, a-trak to cosmo vitelli, ajello and matt walsh - the last mercury release and their remixes for made to play, kitsune, tom trago have been played by djs from all kinds of scenes. it seems the guys found the perfect formula for mixing soul, house and contemporary electronica in a way that works perfect on 99% of the dancefloors of today. and still: this is not cheap music at all. mercurys complex production and clever songwriting guarantee that you want to listen to this music again and again. now the guys strike back with an ep where its hard to choose the main track. play these tunes.. peaktime or warm up... people will scream and shout. especially - as always with gomma records - the girls will love it... hehe.

only available at decks.de exklusive repress big!! hungarian born jay is one of the fastest developing new generation producers around. an artist to watch. specially for bitten hes produced two tech-house tracks, both >the b-groove< and >to beat or not to beat< rock like crazy! for the techno lovers we added a paul ritch remix which speaks for itself!

9volt-musik celebrates 5years and the 25th release with the second mischbatterie compilation. not only known 9volt faces like dinamoe, lado and kork & bates are a part of it. we say welcome to the new member evensloped, a project of lars gustav and paul.groove. 4 tracks with the typical spirit of 9volt-musik.

gly drums! real ugly drums? well, in fact it doesnt matter! quintessentials 25 is a stunning 3-tracker from new signing ugly drums aka steffen baldo (who released an obscure white label on rush hour recently). steffen is a master when it comes to deep spooky house tunes, just check the a-side track >alright alright<. yes, it has a slight tp feel we think. the b-side shows steffens second love, which is pure house music with a disco twist. ugly? not at all, it’s beautiful

it has not gone by unnoticed that, over the last five years, the rhein main area has become a decisive nucleus for innovative, powerful and modern house music. one who is not entirely innocent of this is mannheim-based dj, producer and label head nick curly, whose imprints 8 bit and cécille records are guarantees for standard-setting electronic dance music. since his cocoon debut pujante (2009) and especially since the party animals cocoon ibiza summer mix 2010, he is a frequent and welcome guest at cocoons. the three tracks of his sun city ep are an impressive proof for curlys maturation process: with a clear orientation towards the needs of the dancefloor, he exploits the sound potential of compressed house textures. the title track captivates the listener with a subsonically perfected bass line and a discoid hi-nrg modulation, forming a deluxe prime time anthem, whereas the dense and dub-referring deepness of green baize is enchanting just everybody, and, for the final, liberos rich percussive rhythms are strongly stressing the pelvic thrust. so, virtually nothing can go wrong with nicks world tour between ibiza, moscow, manchester and nyc!

the topic of >salome< fits the two producers kadebostan and laolu from switzerland perfectly. just listen to their prior releases on freude am tanzen, fenou or clap your hands. the melodies sway back and forth - dreamy and full of peace. the rhythm group plays along and only the most necessary things. and even though the vocal phrases retain their own character, they blend into this musical structure as if they were made for these tracks. the a and the b face show a masterly crafted arrangement. it would be a mistake not to listen to the whole, as one would miss the feeling to let yourself go. as usual, the lovingly designed 10inch record is a limited edition and numbered by hand

walls alessio natalizia and sam willis dont deal in perfect wholes. the kompakt duo return swiftly on the back of 2010 s critically lauded self titled debut, an album that picked up mojos coveted electronic album of the year, featured in nmes end-of-year lists, not to mention winning fans such as of jamie xx, caribou, james holden and impressing us trio battles so much that they have invited the pair on tour around the us this coming october. yet it isnt these admittedly impressive accolades that make the announcement of second lp >coracle< such an anticipated one, what makes walls so alluring is the fully immersive experience of their mellifluous electronica – reaching out far and wide to pull influences sonic, emotional and theoretical together into patterns of blissful phantasmagoria. taking their debut as the prototype, willis and natalizia have taken those initial early-sunrise evocations and pushed them to even more grandiose expanse.<br /including cd version of this album.

coming off the heels of the kitano ep, we decided to keep things right in the bustling metropolis of deepness known as melbourne, australia for our next undertones release. after successful outings on both 3rd strike and dirt crew, it just made perfect sense for us to join musical forces with the tortoise. tortoise laces us with two vocally charged joints that set the tone just right. we couldn t think of a better way to put our spin on this release than to feature the extremely talented duo known as genius of time on not one but two remixes .. one for each track! it s definitely a first for us and we couldn t be anymore pleased with how everything shook out.

clash of star remixes presents tracks by christian smith and renato cohen, remixed by wehbba and cristian varela.
a release with an encounter of generations from global electronic scene which promisses shake not only the famous europian summer but all world.

>rdjcs5<, a new 4-track 12-inch ep by solvent, is the result. this is suction022. each and every sound on this record came from rdj’s old cs5, painstakingly programmed and multi-tracked by solvent over the course of several months. the limited capabilities and sound palette of this humble little synth provided quite a challenge, but ultimately the results are not merely an exercise in technical synthnerdery, rdjcs5 speaks more of solvents musical kinship to thee analord. opening track >curtains< bears similarity to early rephlex signing bochum welt, while >radiator<, >mould<, and >tassels< each contain hallmarks of the classic afx sound. at the same time, each track also sounds distinctly and unmistakably solvent. the 12 inch vinyl edition is limited to 300 copies, in brown chipboard sleeve with sticker, and also contains an additional noise/drone piece at the end of side b. entitled >sandpaper<, this cut will be individually hand-etched by solvent, for a 1-of-a-kind cut/click/loop experience.

debut 12 inch from this talented norwegian chap. after a little session with the prins at k16 studios we managed to squeeze out these 2 beauties. included in the vinyl edition is some good karma, you are not getting it with the digital release …

terpsichore welcomes the florian muller project with the marvellous >jam with it<. the funky live bass and the amazing deepness of its chords and vocals make this track a must for any deep connoisseur. florian created something special here! the oliverwho factory blessed us with two splendid remixes: hear their vocals and scream! last but not least, what would be a terpsichore release without jefferson velazquezs touch? deep as always!

with private golds newest offering the inimitable cologne producer martin beume has really taken a huge and achingly beautiful step in his songwriting and production. some might know him from releases with connaiseur or brut! records, but this record is miles higher… wisps of detail adorn each song like edible gold flake on a luscious chocolate ganache cake. synths flutter and glide like summer butterflies and even the percussion is precious and clean. this is not to say it is only good for home listening. lead off track solid rubber has a tough and sexy deep house sway with echoes of brazilian bossa nova laid over its more traditionalist chicago house and jazz. lsdeep, has the full dirt stomp necessary for a forbidden tryst, but sneaks in smart samples and emotional filter washes to add unexpected depth. at 105bpm, you might not expect wip catch to fucking groooooove the way it does, but trust me kids, things are getting slower as we are getting older. and it feels great. soaring orchestral strings married with perfectly cut vocal samples are sure to get the more adventurous djs hypnotizing dancefloors like musical svengalis. and when you thought it was all over, axel boman turns in an amazing remix in his instantly recognizable non-traditional style. this dude is a lothario. all hip shake and cooing come-ons, its a reduced house gem that slinks its way into your pants.

the first release >baron< reveals to the audience what minimal music should refer to: not minimizing a song to mere sounds but rather focusing on the essentials. ric janvier melds pithy lyrics, an impulsive bassline and aristocratic effects into an opus which lets every dancefloor crowd melt away. further spiced with remixes by legendary random factor and a local frankfurt duo known as möwüller, the baron is unleashed to clubs.

cco aka contra commumem opinionem has released 2 eps on the chicago based label mathematics that were played a lot at plak office. we have been even more amazed to meet him at zukunft club in zürich … the young talented producer is not from the windy city but from our lovely sweetzerland! soo here we go with 2 slices of raw chicago techno/house carefully crafted & extended for plak: the moody atmosphere of >structural constraints< will fly you far far away, on the flip side >structural drift< is a spiritual momentum with a liquid 303 lead and sensual pads for your chemical sunday therapy. this piece of wax is an analog affair, no software!

following a world-wide rollercoaster of almost 3 years continuously on the road touring, gui boratto found himself back in his sao paolo studio in early 2011. the results are here with >iii< – arguably his greatest musical accomplishment to date. kicking off with the slo drive >galuchat< the sitar-ish instrumental embedded in the track sets a foundation of melancholic organic groove found throughout >iii<.

this 12 inch with remixes from popnoname, korablove, gorje hewek and khz is a tribute to moscows synth pop and new wave shooting star pompeya. the bands music sounds so fresh and well produced that we couldnt not notice and thus we had our pro-tez artists remix it for your listening pleasure. as a result we are proud to present a remix single which offers a house, a disco, a dub and a synth pop version of the original hit >90<. pompeyas music might be compared to musical styles of death cab for cutie and postal service but it has their exhilarating original sound to it. we present a killer remix single from the forthcoming album >tropical<. listen!

the musician airat naryshkin (the very airat) is quite an unusual figure on moscow electronic scene. popular club-culture & music magazine ptiuch called airat >one of the godfathers of the russian electronic music<. he took part in the international album volume transmission (ambient), label worm interface (england),1999. airat with alex paterson (the orb) made an electronic performance in moscow (ketama cafe) last autumn.
