the soft rocks collective feature twice on the upstart black rox label with two heavily tribal remixes for a so far unknown artist. the soft rocks take on *filaw* is wrapped in horns and jungle sounds - not too far off a 1970s brian jackson and gil scott heron collaboration. on the flip is a possible talking heads reference in *once in a life time*, which gathers mesmeric african drums and percussion, grooving in harmony to ritualistic chant. a mohican david byrne perhaps?

fortyone records is ready to take off with their second release straight from basel switzerland. ready to board is their own a+r responsible cristian tamborrini together with kellerkind (stil vor talent) and dj le roi (get physical) who are responsible for the remix section! and their luggage is packed with good tunes!

nice price deal !!! static discos is proud to present low and behold, our latest compilation. we wanted eight friends to contribute a slow techno track. we wanted deepness and melodic greatness. we wanted poetry and lyricism. we needed to slow things down, to sit down and take a look at all the things we love and that circulate around us. we got all of that and more. thanks to lince, machino, kampion, cubenx, federico crespo, al-b, macario and fax for their contribution to this compilation.

the black madonna returns to home taping with another classic release in the making! we still believe captures that early sound of chicago when you could still hear the euro and italo influences as they were re-interpreted through the beat boxes & synthesisers of the windy city, and made to jack. on the flip, home taping favourite the revenge delivers his own take on that classic sound with an understated and yet pumping rework. packed full of authentic beatbox sounds and warehouse style keys, it works it to the boom boom. last but not least, the black madonna finishes off the package with say my name - a dirty, menacing and incessant groove that makes out like a wild new street dance that just got turned loose. the black madonna is here to stay!

4 fantastic trax done by one of the best deep house producer right now : montel. being an avid record collector and dance music enthusiast for nearly 20 years, montel has slowly but surely cultivated his craft. feeling all nostalgic after his 20 year love affair with house music, he felt it was time to find a creative outlet for his sounds. not concerned with topping charts, being in the playlists of top djs or winning social networking popularity contests, montel is a man of simplicity. his only objective is to give back the good vibrations, making music for djs and dancers. music for sweaty basements, house partys and day time raves. nothing big, nothing clever.. just vibes

after a little break we are back on track with a definitive collectors item: a special double a-sided twelve inch with two catalogue numbers, featuring four artists. the first side starts with in a dark garage, a dancefloor stomper by okee ru, followed by an untitled track delivered by solidsoul (kevin kipfer & dzanin gabirovic), retouched and tube-amped by the enterbt crew. on the flip side we proudly introduce our new label mate, donato capozzi, with his vinyl-debut. two special gems, not only for the floor. watch out for more!

we never forget our roots here at idle hands. for people of a certain age the wild experiments of jungle and dnb remain close to our hearts. whilst scenes, sounds and trends may wax and wane that visceral feeling of chest rattling bass is something we hold on to. rhythmic theory is one producer who like us, never forgot. here we present two tunes deeply indebted to those times. it must be stated though, you will not find any amen breaks or ragga samples here, instead, this up and coming bristol producer transposes the atmospheres and deadly subs to a techno template. *legacy of the lost* and *riveted* follow on from two well received vinyl only release on brstl and his own self titled label. both tracks are immaculately crafted hardware jams that are designed solely with sound system use in mind.

jtc is a phenomenon. one alias of the multi-talented tadd mullinix. one part of a mind that also houses dabrye, sk-1, charles manier, and halves of tnt, 2am/fm and x2. this time round, on park days, he flexes a house side that has not been seen too often in his career of 13 years. whether the driving groove of south brooks, the late night drum machine jam of argo, creals ever evolving scatter, or the delicate gallup, park days is one of those records where everyone has a different favourite. ie - a good one. we are honoured to release this mans music. a man that continually remains out of the spotlight, yet is revered by your favourite producers for at least one of his many aliases. a man that ignores trends, hype, trickery, and just returns every now and again to nudge that bar a little bit higher than he left it last.

sam paganini is not a real newcomer anymore. after all, he produces great tracks for more than ten years now and also became an acknowledged dj in italy during this time. however, his career received an enormous boost since 2011 with his releases on plus 8 and drumcode, and now reaches a new height with his cocoon recordings debut.

streaking through the ether at twice the speed of sound, mr 8040 is on a date with destiny. he is heading for mikrosector-50, his home planet, but things are not going as smoothly as planned. en route he finds himself in sticky situations, cosmic encounters that trigger flashbacks to a different time and place. will he ever make it home? and who – or what – is he running from?
this, more or less, is the narrative thrust of jack hamills debut album as space dimension controller. welcome to mickrosektor-50 is a swashbuckling sci-fi odyssey that unfolds like some long-lost star wars episode scripted by philip k dick and scored by tangerine dream. the record is fantasy in its purest form: a futuristic boys own adventure concocted in a belfast bedroom, it is the sum of jacks musical influences distilled into 68 minutes of unalloyed electronic pleasure.

while fetsum is about to take the us by storm (after a california tour, in march hes going to perform at the sxsw festival in austin and at the pre-oscars party at the villa aurora in la) sonar kollektiv releases four seminal remixes of his song letters from damascus. one of the centre pieces of his current album the colors of hope is not describing the political situation in syria, its more of an autobiographical tale about the golden voiced german-eriteans life.

bosconi launches his new purist techno offshoot bosconi squirts and none else could have been to start the label it if not the mind behind this new project, the florentian techno don corcos. the vinyl contains 3 deadly club weapons: on a side youll find the main version of joujoube soup, a heart pumping and mind blowing side-chained techno dubby & proggy track with a minimalistic esthetic and some nuschool inspiration a la actress style, while on b side there are remixes by 2 masters of the genre, the almighty scott grooves as >panther< who gives to the original a more detroit touch with brasilian music influences and an organic

this record is a soundtrack for excentric nightlife. bringing back to life images of wild parties at artists workspaces in paris in the 1920s, early mornings in belgian nightclubs in the late 1980s and driving classic italian sports cars during long hot summer nights. but this is not just a dream, we are here to live this life! enfant terrible serves you contemporary music to spice up your nighttime activities... limited edition of 350 copies.

azimuth ep showcases this producers fresh take on electronic music across a range of tempos. dmarc cantu remixes the eps most dancefloor-friendly track, azimuth, lending it a deeper and more brooding edge. alis is the new project from italo-bulgarian londoner, sabina plamenova (formerly subeena). this new pseudonym reflects a more personal and vocal-lead endeavour, in her own words, not just a music about music approach but also an outlet for her own personality. a big name for 2013 and beyond.

we are the ones with the courage to stand up and express our ideas. so many heroes have sold out, moved on, and turned their back on the detroit underground. if the true believers are waiting on the calvary then i guess cryovac will have to do. this is our fight whether we like it or not. we are a few like minds, not the alphas, never the favorites. we are the other guys, the ones nobody bets on, the least likely to survive a business. we know what the score will bring us, but there is an appointment and we mean to keep it. heroes must define themselves and then redefine themselves. each day that moves forward brings opportunities to tweak creations into what the now means. kieth kemp endures the elements and ailments of an ever changing electronic world. he is an original hero with a smooth technique that reflects an instinctual nderstanding of sound and soul. kieth represents a talent and spirit that does not falter no matter how strange a circumstance can get. he follows his own path to relavence. i am proud to welcome kieth to the cryovac machine.

legendary dj jauche back on vinyl! and this could not be better as on acker dub... incl strong schaeufler & zovsky remix

turn on the strobe lights and the fog machine. shtum returns with its second record, this time by dresdens very own kryptic universe. his ep comes with five cuts full of dark and gritty future jazz. his techno funk is playful as it is evocative. just listen to the bass line in *a light in the box* and the appropriately titled *critters funk*. not to mention the crazy piano in the title song and the rather hard-hitting *dark sky*. on top we got the mighty xdb on remix duties and his take on *signals*. again, the illustration on the b-side label is by aram haydeyan.

another clever techno release with emphasis on quality and structure and not forgetting the input from detroit dub merchant luke hess. *terminator reserve* is dominated by a thick bass line, razor sharp percussion, devastating juno stabs and with tonnes of analogue warmth coming from its abyssal depths. the luke hess remix provides the deep qualities of the original however its much more repetitive in its nature making it truly hypnotic and one you cannot help but get completely lost in. on the b side *mediator* is rough and ready ... booming kicks, dynamic bass shifts accompanied by the right amount of snare and filter inputs make this one of the toughest on the release not forgetting that its split down the middle with a heavy 303 bleed. highly recommended! *stilled* runs off in the opposite direction to the other track it shares the b with as its laden with detroit influenced floating chords and percussion.

Ø phase remixes. not many people get the chance to remix robert hood, but Ø phase (token) got the stamp of approval from the master. the original is also included and gets the full a-side!

tadd mullinix aka james t. cotton aka j.t.c. is one of our true heroes. when we had our hands on the first records of his on spectral we immediately fell in love with his daring approach to club music. raw sketches of great ideas – not clean, not cool, but human and deficient, singular and alive. so, signing this artist for our label is a great honour to us, and we are proud to present sonic criminal to you, an ep crossing over classic detroit techno, deep house, jazz and electro. amazing!

the new vinyl release by stefan gubatz features unreleased new dance floor versions of his tracks >byte and scratch< and >offshore< (which had originally appeared as electronic versions on cd) which appear now exclusively for the first time on the telrae vinyl 10 inch series as reworks. >byte and scratch rework< generates a subtle form of urgency which slowly step by step takes possession of yours and does not loose its grip till the very end. stefan has reworked the original for the club, has kept many details in the process of the sound shaping while on the other hand has changed the arrangement and dominance of key sounds very skillfully. he has transferred a piece of electronica into an intense piece of dub techno. >offshore rework< is the counterpart of >byte and scratch rework< being much more ease and repetitive... more in the fashion of some of stefans 10 releases on telrae before

my childhood was, from what i understand now as a grown up, not so bad after all. i had the possibility to do pretty much what i wanted as long as i didnt hurt anyone or myself for that matter. i had some friends, some of them i would consider my best friends ever
