with this release sinan kaya, an istanbul based dj and producer, is becoming a fresh member of the berlin tonkind crew. since 2001 his passion became also his profession, which he continuously dispread with dj-ing and scores of releases across the bosporus over to europe. his productions and sets can be defined as deep and playful. so aswell this release, which comes up with three variable tracks. something else in the front, shows sinan kayas touch for the impulsive sound.this track becomes a real trip on the dance floor and reflects a farsighted feeling for elctronic dance music. on the fells operates more the minimal genre and adepts a symbiosis of many samples, a duby bass and a bumpy rollin groove. as last but not least there is bloom, a rather charming and friendly tech/ deep house track consisting all required ingredients to make it work as dance floor teaser. in all three tracks its possible to notice some eclectic material of jazz, funk, chigago and jackin fragments put together to a unique sound and providing a different vision for life

when morning glory seeds appears, it?s not as the heart shaped plant that induces all manner of hallucinogenic pleasures, but he will take you on a trip to the deeper side of dance life ? so hold on tight!

not much of a description is needed here, as the classic well known and adored >jingo< gets the throwback remake treatment by producers tnt inc. and alex dimitri. something for everyone with mixes ranging from peak time, classic house, minimal afro vibes to laid back and subtle stripped down grooves.
already receiving massive support and plays from the likes of king britt, grant nelson, mr. v, tony humphries, julius papp, dutchican soul, dave mayer, inland knights, lawnchair generals, nicolas matar (cielo), jask, phonic funk, j boogie, sonny fodera, christian alvarez,raul campos (kcrw), nathan g, dario dattis, neil aline and many more!

nice price deal !!! prinzhorn dance school announce their return with new single – >seed, crop, harvest.< we havent heard a thing from tobin prinz and suzi horn for three years (their debut lp was released on dfa back in 2007) but theyve been far from work-shy. they toured extensively, then came home and built their own bespoke recording studio (the red shed) – and learned how to use it. time consuming endeavors which saw them drop off the music radar. which might just explain the title of the equally charged b-side >off the radar, off the system<. in their own words: >weve been busy. just not busy making records. you have to live too. you can only write so many songs about motorway service stations and airports<. they recorded and mixed both songs themselves in the red shed, with bob weston taking on mastering duties. …prinzhorn dance school are back! and dfa could not be more proud

short about the label: 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. were 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. fernando pulichino should be a familiar name to you, either as part of 2020 soundsystem or maybe his recent cover version of bauhaus >kick in the eye< on redux? anyway, we cherry picked 2 of his tracks, one for the peaktime and one for the good times.

part two in the private pressing series of bottin! again crazy limited and extremely good! two hot tracks covering each one side with upbeat italo tracks that takes no prisoners! the funk driven aextacy on the a-side with its sexy vocals leaves not one girl on the side! on the flip there is teak lover with is pure italo drive and bouncing bassline and bombastic synths. disco just don t get much hotter then this. recommended!

the newborn record label studio barnhus is the love child of axel boman, petter nordkvist and kornél kovács, three fine young gentlemen who in 2009 ended up sharing a studio space in downtown stockholm. studio barnhus is exploring the outskirts of electronic dancemusic, but also sharing a passion for hedonistic dancefloor madness. on this first release tracks from the trio which represent them in the best possible way. forward thinking dance tracks that bring joy to the dancefloor! studio barnhus presents 4 exciting and fresh house tracks that already created a stir on several dancefloors! we could do a lot of name dropping here and tell why we like it so much... but lets not do to much talking... listen to the tracks yourself!

jason little collab with weichentechnikk! jasons label is the most ruthless hard techno out there, hard to the bone!

the first and most important of the four food groups is flapjacks. a great example of this is in bryan jones flapjackin jam low flow. the beats are as thick with butter milk and the bass is fluffy and melts in your ears. the second food group and a perfect complement to the first is syrup. czech republics arco gives us a sugery delight entitled first time, which can be poured or spread over just about everything from toast and flapjacks to spaghetti noodles. this tune has a nice and deep brown maple sound that like syrupy goodness, sweetens up every mix. the third basic food group is eggs, everyones favorite baby animal embryo treat. melbourne, australias house mopper d-t3ch, plucked the perfect egg from his prized chicken with his spoken word groove give & take. in this smooth bumpin scenario, the chicken gives the egg, and d-t3ch takes it and whips it up into a wonder house omelet. the last but certainly not the least of the 4 basic food groups is the bacon. bacon just makes everything better. oregons forrest avery & derty d definitely take the bacon with their super fried, crispy, salty smash hit the perfect beat. this tune does to a club what bacon does to your heart…it clogs dance floors

deeply rooted house is proud to present >the many roots ep< by berlins own mike dehnert. mike is not only the resident dj of one of berlins legendary clubs but he also owns the excellent fachwerk label. this release features four tracks that are great examples of mikes diverse talents: starting with the hectic >timber framing< that delivers a pure raw and dramatic dancefloor energy madness. moving next with >the march<, an unstoppable stomping groove that djs will love to mix. continuing on the flip side is the deeper and haunting >deep routes< followed by the hypnotic >roots talk< that takes you on a mental rhythm journey

blackbelt andersen loves you thats why he decided to give you this exclusive track while youre waiting for his forthcoming album(summer/fall 2010). however this track will not be on his next album todd terjes dj-partner dolle jolle kindly gave us the remix for the b-side, we had to rip it out of his hands though! ps:if you slept on his first album, shame on you!!

windy city producers steven hitchell and josh werner continuing to challenge and confound expectations as antenna international drops >fractalrip< a speaker-melting 303 drenched bomb from chicagos southside, harkening back to the earliest days of outlaw warehouse and loft parties this track is already doing damage in the crates of justin long, traxx and adam marshall. while on the b-side we partner with fellow chicago independent imprint nation to bring the >preludes and nocturnes< mixx of >introspective< from traxx faith cd to light. this version has been put through the sonic cacophony that is hitchells echospace studio, packed with myriad gadgetry of assorted compressors, delays and the infamous echo chamber to create an ominous, building, dark entity not for the faint of heart.

ltd 2x 10 inch, not cheap but deep !

not content to simply sit back and watch his 1605 baby grow from strength to strength, label head umek makes it a strong point to make regular contributions to our output and so he has obliged with the imaginatively titled >omgwtf< track. a superb new composition from mr 1605 himself, >omgwtf< is everything one can expect from umeks sonic arsenal. funky, pounding, innovative, fresh and a surefire dancefloor mover. if the title is anything to go by, we d say you have been warned!

hypnotic and mesmeric, the haunting music that brazilian artist babe, terror makes belies its origins: originally conceived as a soundtrack to >cold saturday afternoons< at home and long, late night walks around his hometown of sao paulo, his tracks are not so much songs as compelling, unsettling aural landscapes, lush, cinematic stories rendered as washes of electronica, absorbing influences as disparate as 50s pop, tropicalia and cold wave and distilling them to their ghostly essence

silkie returns with his first release on deep medi since his much talked about solo album city limits vol.1. city limits vol 1.2 is the first release in a series of four singles in the run up to his new and highly anticipated album city limits vol. 2 scheduled for release early 2011. city limits vol 1.2 will not feature on the album and will be available on limited 12 inch and download. dj support: mala (dmz), skream, joe nice (dub war/united states), quest, j 5ive, kromestar and all antisocial entertainment.

handnumbered, limited to 1000 copies vinyl factory edition, pressed on 200-gram vinyl records with the emi 1400 machine, uk release. double 12 inch plus bonus 7 inch in gatefold cover, including 12 inch artprint.

not many words are needed to describe the roll fritz kalkbrenner is on right now, his vocal performance and songwriting skills are out in the open.. simply amazing!!! that s why we are very happy to present his debut single facing the sun of his very first artist album here today gone tomorrow , which will come out on october 15th. we are also very happy to have his brother paul kalkbrenner and his long time friend sascha funke on board for remixes!! exspect nothing less than phat dope shit! facing the sun in fritz kalkbrenner s own words: one more time, here is track that a few of you guys might be familar with. facing the sun was released as a non-vocal version on my first suol ep last year named wingman . i just couldn t resist recording some vocals on top. if you liked wingman , you will love facing the sun

the release will be a one-sided 12, ink stamped and limited to 240 copies - not to be repressed!

the third release of the new label >lets get lost< which was started by mule musiq and force of natures kza. this third release is by uk producer extrodinaire leo zeros remix of the uks florence & the machine. this leo zero remix was released on only cd single and itunes in 2009. when i received this remix from the agent of leo zero i fell in love with it immediately. it was one of the biggest tracks for me in the last year but was never released on vinyl. leo zero reconstructed the aesthetic alternative rock (like a pumping cocteau twins!?) to very emotional house music. its simply good music and not only for the dance floor. greg wilson has edited it into a semi instrumental version which has never been released on any format. this release is official bootleg for limited press! dont miss it!!

the quality just keeps on coming with this the 19th ep in the volume series. for this release we have something of a nu funk dream team with the creative coming together of two of the scenes biggest players, ali b & nick thayer, what a collaboration! nick is no stranger to the label with a slew of monsters already on the label but this is the first time for air records and kiss fm legend ali b. and the pair do not disappoint.

rusty egan and steve strange brought you the blitz club in 1980, the cradle that not only spawned the musical soundtrack to a generation but also the styles, fashions and very fabric of the 80s. thirty years may seem a long time to wait before launching a record label of the same name but the sound of the blitz is as fresh today as it was all those years ago on a side street off covent garden.

umami who just collaborated with aka aka now join nicone with this late summer dancefloor smasher on side a: i come to you (incl. nicone remix)! umami who claim to make songs not tracks prove this on side b where they not only remixed nicones hanaetano but gave it an additional catchy vocal line. >im down on my knees<! limited to 500 picture sleeves!!

>o god, i could be bounded in a nutshell, and count myself a king of infinite space< - shakespeare a1: >daidalus< redefines some of the ideas already put forth in aleph 01: dance music is not a prison. a2: >hoverboarding< is more of a concept which could not be put into words than an actual piece of music. an experiment in infrasonic structures. b1: >port hope< is not a place - it is a state of mind. b2: >week of fear< has no particular meaning. just the ramblings of some castaway on his desert island, waiting for a ship to come.

mr white returns with a 3 track special. this is the follow up to the sun cant compare, the 2007 highlight - and once again this does not let you down. back with his mentor larry heard who brings the best out of the uplifting vocalist. side a - aeroplane lifts and drives on this tech-house journey. on the flip heard treats use to his deep world of house - larry at his best with mr whites twisted vocals on inside your mined. they round off the ep with you dont answer - a cross over tack of pure electronic pop simplicity.

c.r.s.t. are four producers from south wales who make all sorts of garage/house/funky

john daly is delivering one killer chicago influenced house tracks after another. obviously getting inspiration from his favorite larry heard and marshall jefferson songs, turning that into those long smooth john daly tracks with soulful basslines, lush melodies, intense strings and euphoric breakdowns that take things to another level. not tracks for every moment on every dancefloor, but tools for the real house connaisseurs who understand special records for special moments and who treasure them like the crown jewels!

there was no doubt that label boss fred everything wanted to get his hands on the remix, taking a similar approach to his recent juno-chart-topping disco remixes of hot toddys down to love for oms sub-label smoke & mirrors. fred ups the tempo a little but instead of going the 4/4 route,he uses a laidback,almost freestyle beat over a crisp production. this is house-not-house at its best!also included is the bonus track from blacklodge called >broken promises< which shapes up as another late night monster.early support from danny krivit, mark farina, tortured soul, nacho marco, franck roger, lovebirds..

rootes not roots blue color vinyl - support by: laurent garnier, neville watson, anton zap, tensnake, charles webster, force of nature

hot on the heels of our frantic summer release schedule and by way of (prematurely) welcoming the fall/winter season, we have prepared a little collection of our own. featuring established culprits from the label roster as well as exciting new additions and alliances we proudly present another defining moment in our auditory evolution: >wake me up at 16:05< is a snapshot, a landmark and a sure sign of bigger, harder, faster (maybe not that much) things to come from us. enjoy!

for its 20th release, absolut freak records is proud to present the much expected from outer space by nicolas chenard. the ep starts with parallelism, an ultimate tribute to the rave anthems, with its massive spacey disco loop and strings. already a classic! on do not educate, he rocks with his gameboy and shows his taste for 8-bit synthesis. then, the path reveals his singular melodic genius. the introduction takes you on a fantasy journey with hypnotic organ and flutes, before rolling an electro monster with killer pads. supported by cyberpunkers, david carretta, stereoheroes, donovans, saint pauli, dalcan & john lord fonda!

kate perrys album as double 12 inch in gatefold cover. incl teenage dream, last friday night, firewrok and more !

the heat of summer into an urban canyons night of fresh air. in berlin. or manchester. maybe in budapest even. it is warm, but not that close and hot anymore. a soft wind blows through the leaves and ripples the surface of the small puddles the rain left on the streets. with relaxed enthusiasm a man walks up to his house where he will decant a well-tempered sangiovese while waiting for the woman with whom he will chat till dawn.
with three reworkings of one of their tracks from the full-length album >13<, the trio from manchester conjures such an atmosphere on their vinyl release on binemusic, inviting you to (day-)dream or relaxedly bob across the dancefloor. and maybe even bear the waiting time while stuck in traffic.

do you remember why you started going out in the first place? if not, the maze will remind you with the largest feedback overdose since jimi and miles devastated the isle of wight. recorded in one take in an all-analog set up, stefan hooked up drum machines, distorition pedals and a theremin-controlled fuzz box for the ultimate screaming machine jam. now spanning two sides of a 12inch.

who wouldnt want to be kept by a beautiful rich woman? no matter how you look at it, its not the worst way to make a living. in 1982 the german new wave quartet ideal even wrote a song about it. >schoene frau mit geld< is thestory of a young man without any other drive or desire in life than to find such a woman and turn this state of utopia into reality. tough goal! twenty-eight years later, one of germanys finest and merited producers decided to do afresh interpretation of the song. sir losoul of playhouse fame presents two mixes (a dub for the faint of heart) that hone the hook and tag line of the original for maximum dance floor and repeated listening pleasure. and that, ladiesand gentlemen, is sometimes really the only thing you need in the world…

the red-hot underground duo sound navigators (chillin, dae)step up to calis doubledown with a choice three-track release. this is a cant-miss release for the jacking house heads, with the main cut the paper is not cry working an amped-up bass-heavy chicago acid house groove. very much in line with johnny fiascos material. on the flip active sol is a driving percussive track with a massive analog b-line while stevies acid thump boosts the 303 bass for more tweaked out midwest prime time flavor!

first on decks.de !!! scalameriyas >samus aran<, a thriving and massively pushing techno-cutlet, makes up eminors first quarter. its getting a solid rework by daegon from denver, who is obviously not afraid of daring to enter the twilightish area of heavy distortion

support by: reboot, audiofly, dj t., michel cleis, gel abril, brothers vibe, ekkohaus, phil weeks, luca bacchetti, daniel dreier, toni rios, andre crom & many more ... bomb alert! for >bad habit< affkt and samuel dan get to work on one of the biggest vocals of house music, turning it into a pure underground club anthem. if youre not dancing to this you re dead. on the flipside they give a showcase of their much deeper side with the jazzy discoish playful piano madness on germinia, and the relaxed summerish deep groovetool that >forlyn< is. and if youre up for some real oldschool madness in early 80ies hiphop style, try the vocal version of germinia. altogether a very diverse release that shows a stunning combination of clubfocus and musical skills...!

its not often we end up releasing four singles from an album, but with the tuneful love supreme standout track >waiting for the love< we seem to have achieved it. penned with uk based benjamin james smith, (who also delivers the snappy vocal) the track screamed single right from the start. heading up the remix package are two stomping mixes from synth-wizards, chicken lips. dean and andy keep the catchy vocal but overdrive things in the synth department. their vast armoury of sounds and accomplished arrangement makes this mix one to be really proud of.

new release on millions of moments by a unknown artist (or maybe not so unknown?). all we know is that this is delivered to us under the name of northworks). comes as no info labels and has 3 deep, deeper dubby techno in bc/ cr vein. a must for all basic channel afficianados

everybody loves summer & house music, and of course so do we! these four tracks by our italian and spanish friends have already been hammered on various open air floors by the usual suspects, and especially marco effe s track chesley had people running up into the dj-booth trying to find out what it is. well, today we finally have the answer.
but also romano and luca, who both have made a name for themselves with releases on break new soil as well as various other imprints are showing why they are two of the keyplayers of modern house-music from italy. and last but not least danny serrano & hector coutu deliver a classic groove monster that will bring new boosts of energy to preparties, prime-time sets and after-hour dancefloors as well.

hot on the heels of our frantic summer release schedule and by way of (prematurely) welcoming the fall/winter season, we have prepared a little collection of our own. featuring established culprits from the label roster as well as exciting new additions and alliances we proudly present another defining moment in our auditory evolution: >wake me up at 16:05< is a snapshot, a landmark and a sure sign of bigger, harder, faster (maybe not that much) things to come from us. enjoy!

not many single releases can be labelled as events, especially not in the ever homogenised techno world, but the first single from model 500 in eleven years, and the first recorded by the new band line up is most definitely an event.
its only fitting that this single is released on r&s records, whose relationship with the man widely acknowledged as the originator of detroit techno goes back 17 years and who released the last model 500 album back in 1999.

in fact, its not even supposed to have a release sheet like this one. but sometimes, you-re even too modest to stay away. so, whats it all about? well, the music, of course. and only the music. organic stuff, so to speak. tracks made by pure immersion. no plans, no blueprints. just going with the flow, unleashing the inner krautrock while staying true to the basics of techno. here is gabriels new 4-tracker. inhale.

mark du mosch delivers a classic ep with four very different, but ultimately essential tracks. titletrack >bareknuckle< has _anthem_ written all over it. warm, but pumping techno with a hint of disco and a hook that is simply killing. with the raw, dark technoelectro sound of >monolulu< and >mice vs cat< mark du mosch dives into dusty, pounding cellar soundsystems. >machine lives< takes it in true sd style to an unexpected experimental level with not to miss.

big with: raresh, joris voorn, sebo k, monika kruse, sis, dj t, agnès, brothers vibe, butch, gorge, luke slater, danny tenaglia, anthony collins, einelkind, julietta, ekkohaus ,.. after a short break of redefinition puzzle traxx gets back on stage and welcomes a new artist to the family. italians are well-known for being experts in pizza, pasta, amore and - thanx to artist like mirco violi - some impressing dance electronica. after well received releases on labels such as be chosen, all inn limited, bloop, off, hypercolour and adult only, the young rising star is giving his debut on puzzle traxx. -enchanté-, a bassheavy driving house track with weird infatuating vocals, is probably his most outstanding work to date and has already caused waves among chosen tastemakers worldwide. -pamplona- is not less unique, bringing some crazy sax and flutes on the floors. but not enough of the dancefloor madness, as the package gets crowned by a dirty as hell remix from amsterdam s house hero je dàvu aka melon, who received heavy support of the worldwide dj elite lately for his raw meat tracks like -i zebra- on platzhirsch, -music got you movin- or more housy melon reworks for artists like sascha dive or the rebirth label. + excl. bonus download against code hidden on vinyl!

final release !!! rush hour presents a new series of releases entitled -voyage direct-. this series is about all about feel good club music and is curated by tom trago. hence the name voyage direct, which was also the title of his debut double ep. dexter kicks off this series in a classy style with his junofest ep. this is easily his best work since his genre breaking electrofunk hit -i dont care- from 2000. and now its time for -junofest ep-. the title track is a steady, yet smooth club groove with enough wsing to make anyone dance to the music. a true party starter. on the aa side we find -not the only one-, an infectious vocoder vocal track that makes you smile. this is one of those rare tracks that has a poppy, commercial feel without losing its underground raw appeal. it could just be his biggest track since -i dont care-
