opener >playing for keeps< is an exhilarating trip, centered around a swinging mapped by crunching beats. chopped and skewed, pulsing electro house melodies fight for attention with sampled cuts of big band, tiring to a slow and heavy halt before picking themselves up and punching it out to close. >playing for daddy’s girl< is an equally agitated reprise, introducing distorted 8-bit melodic tones and a throbbing deep bass into the fray as a sampled audience cheers on the ensuing battle for the listeners attention. on the b side, the mole transforms >playing for keeps< into a driving house number, with subtly escalating melodic synth growing into a deep and hypnotic dark electro sweat fest

eversince marko nastic started out with his label recon warriors he has attracted the finest names in the scene for his releases. dejan milicevic is one of those artists, previously responsible for the sixth release on this imprint. now he takes on release number nine, last thing she said was f--k me the impressive work dejan delivered for labels like shadowfax, abyss records and syndikaat records over the past few years is continued by this release. this is techno !!!

slammin latin flavoured summer house number feat the cool outwork vocals.

funky little house number with a touch of disco and electro!! mixes by soulshaker, fonzerelli and wayne g & porl young!! not to be missed

detroit underground returns for their much anticipated ninth edition of their now legendary compilation series. featuring some of the label s biggest artists, namely funkstorung, richard devine and jimmy edgar, the ninth edition sees the label return to its more experimental roots after a successful, albeit brief foray into a more hip-hop and club-oriented music in the series seventh and eighth editions. while number nine, still puts you on the dance-floor, the release s forays into idm, acid and experimental sounds recall earlier du records and further detroit underground s reputation as a label that is not afraid to take chances

number one in dave clarkes charts !!! percussive stormy synth stab grooving techno

that patterns is one of the number 1 techno labels is already a fact. with releases by borique tribez, elton d, eric sneo, carl falk and dejan milicevic to name only a few last year was definitely one of the best years for patterns so far. the number 42 welcomes an extra cheeky one.

deep, deeper, peter grummich! this man is on a roll right now, and with every new release you have to ask yourself where this is all going to lead to? however with the >garden ep< he now already delivers the perfect soundtrack for weeding the beds and waterblasting the terrace - and for partying hard, of course. >beachtrak< prefers its quintessential sub-harmonics to just playing it safe with an upfront bassdrum, and finally channels its way in a wide arc up to the next level. a hit also for friends of water gardens. on the b-side grummich enlarges his melodic skills with a sweet flowery scent of detroit on the track >garden<, and >its to share<, which evolves into a great anthem with just an assumed number of 3 sounds and a couple of snotty claps

support comes from surgeon, paul mac, mark williams!! this will be the first of many releases on theory this year. theory is run by ben sims. he has closed his ingoma imprint, and now theory is his main focus. this number comes with tracks by mark broom, paul mac, bens sims, tony anderson

tribal based electro flavoured house number with cool fxd vocal snips!!

for their latest effort, einzelkind aka arno völker and miguel ayala teamed up with douglas greed for ice 1656 ep. in a1 >la belle<, a rolling, woodblock rhythm sets the scene for the abstracted keyboard tones which cluster around the track’s middle, cranking up the drama and throwing the bottom-line bass throb sharp relief, ahead of the dirty, flanged synth line that’ll gleefully force any dancefloor into submission. >la belle<’s beauty lies in its simplicity - einzelkind and douglas greed use a small, well-chosen assortment of percussive and melodic elements to create a wonderfully tense, propulsive club track with not even a hint of flab about it. for b1 >ed the optician<, the trio inject a bit of funk into proceedings. it’s a slinky little number, characterised by an expanding and contracting, analogue-sounding synth-line, woodwind samples and a bouncy, morse-code bassline, together making for a warm, groving track that will work well in warm-up and peak-time sets alike, not to mention at home. b2 >squirls in a bathtub< is a similarly supple, funk-fuelled cut, driven by haunting, almost animal-like noises and which mutate into wiry acid lines while the aquatic bass drum, hissing shaker and press

homewreckers - close your eyes til the morning the amazing success of their last release >its about time< challenged the homewreckers to push their sound a little further out. >close your eyes til the morning< is hardcore groove with a great, burning synth bass that funks along until new york singer dennis legree brings some excitement to the proceedings with his tremendous voice. its pure underground deep house - intense, abstract and dramatic. no wonder that felix da housecat and marshall jefferson supported those guys when they were teenagers! a vital alternative to the melodic clichés and rhythmic orthodoxy of the electronic music mainstream. langenbergs remix gets the b-side under way. backed up by a strong beat it rolls steadily ahead with unflagging propulsion. next up is >hot hot hot<, an exciting up-tempo number which gives kemo another opportunity to show his lyrical feeling while >smile< slows down the pace easing into a down-home hip-hop affair. this is the second of four records representing the vinyl collectors edition of the homewreckers forthcoming album >american ruhr<

dotbleeps 21st release is a killer track, a full on chi town vocal number with a phat mix from the legend derrick carter. three awesome tracks that will suit all floors, all towns, all states and all ages.

renato cohen twists and bites technasias rocking dancefloor anthem in this special remix edition of the original take. on the a, grooving side to side like a king cobra on heat, this number is not for the faint hearted but rather more for those who want to see themselves lost in the pulsating lights and booming punch billowing from them woofers. on the b, a low end pumper, that will rock your jumper off like there is no tomorrow.

ortim cam with fresh harder techno stomper !! vezotonic had a jumpstart last year when they started with the massive valentino kanzyani release. this was picked up by many dj s in the scene and is still in a lot of dj s recordbags. the follow-up by dejan milicevic was a strong one and pushed the labels immage further forward.. now its 2008 and time for the third release presenting, tom macoye aka ortin cam

four big disco edits!! a side feat hi - a prog disco bomb par excellence and black a slightly more wonky track, with its off kilter beats, underwater vocals and strings on top for a very weird outing indeed!! lime on the b side is an edit of yellos oh yeah! cow is a pretty awesome squelchy little disco number with a top vocoder on top

one of japans most intriguing graphic artists >baiyon< has also been producing ethereal and engaging tracks since 1998. having journeyed through cut up hip hop house and dub regions under his conceal moniker, d1 invited him to perform two ecstatically received live sets as baiyon at dublins deaf festival in 2005 and in 2007. now for our 41st in the d1 catalogue we are presenting 4 flawless minimal >trecks< of deep space activity. first up is >s soup< a slick fusion of traditional japanese block grooves and drum machine that climbs its way up into a cloud bursting deep dub house melody explosion. side a is completed by a remix of aforementioned track by south african dj/producer >shane berry< of synewave and trapez fame. the mission continues through >the middle< showing a slightly tougher side to this usually light hearted artist. the plate concludes with a stunning bouncy deep jerky house number >can ride, can walk, cant wait< sweet deep melodies dubbed out over club chuggin beats and a red hot squidge bassline

as expected, this cool little number is starting to do big things!! kazyo, half of teenage bad girl will take the world by storm with this new, fresh, amazing project. gritty analog synths chugging along to solid jackin backbeats in a very electro flavored style, layering in more synth lines as the track progresses for some abrasive electro techno action. this is an essential release coming out from the new electro scene, do not pass on this!

nice price deal !!! berlin-based dj kaos has been producing twisted disco tunes for a number of years and has been an integral part of the berlin underground scene. last year’s single cerebral tremolo was released by nyc’s rong, but was also picked up by parisian tastemakers, kitsuné, and his newest single panopeeps features a killer remix by shit robot. his turn at remixing has proved fruitful as well, including work for rodion, tom vek, chk chk chk, roxy music, and new young pony club. he has also been part of the faith recordings ’collectors series’ mix cds, with danse, gravite zero which he co-produced with sal principiato, of the legendary liquid liquid. his latest project called ’ bingo volume one ’ and features various edits of the good old times . expect nothing short of amazing, with a range from acid techno to true-blue disco.

cazals release their first full single life is boring from their brilliant upcoming album what of our future. you may have seen and heard this bruising and frenetic track on the recent sony ericsson walkman campaign, which featured the video directed by bryan barber of outkast fame. life is boring features remixes all from friends of the band. one from ali love who was a founding member of cazals, and played bass! another from rory phillips who daniel and phil know only too well after spending practically every monday night with him for the last number of years at trash and finally a remix from crookers who are lucas favourite italian producer mates.

hum along is one of the earliest productions of mr. mwambe. he started the track in the beginning of 2004 and for the last 4 years it has always been a very important and personal part of his life. only brontosaurus intelligence & ca$h were able to get this masterwork for this lickyboom- boom-down house 12. to complete the commotion full time nice guy, father and electronic innovator move d from the beautiful city of heidelberg sat down to deliver a spontaneous disco version of the track – reanimating the fresh and impro vibe of late 90ies german disco / house productions. the b-side >greatest love< continues where artos mudhutma 12 ends, celebrating the unholy passion of deep housemusic. voila.. a limited number of covers will be hand-printed with another nice torso. as always.

so at last its time for misericord number two and a track we re really proud and excited to be releasing. hot on the heels of al ushers mighty gnanfou ep, mugwump deliver their finest work to date. a 107bpm club monster (for us balearic grandads this is not a contradiction in terms) entitled boutade. an extended intro with marcato strings and timpani builds the drama until a massive bassline drops and the dancefloor gets stupid. on the flip myself, naughty and sasse turn in a chugging prescription esque dub for good measure.

helado en globos is the main track for this release, this number has a bassline which is so funky and driving thats going to even make your grandma dance (expect bootlegs of this track with donna summer funzion ones). for the remix, we had no other than the pan-pot guys who kept the original flavour of the original one adding their special touches to the original recipe turning this track into a deep funky stormer. finally, we took one of funzions best works from the igloo back catalogue, his remix of qiks fall. the only reason we did this because its not just a filler, its killer. enjoy your >helado en globos<!

although berlin based dj woody has long been a member of the gigolo crew, having the honor to play at some legendary gigolo nights, this is woodys first solo release for gigolo. and what a fine entry onto the gigolo-scene it is: sure to get people in the know talking... and dancing! woody is the original sonic funkateer whose life is completely focussed on music and his very own definition of funk. hes a genuine kind of a guy, needing nothing more than two turntables, a mixer and an audience to know hes alive. for him djing and making music is not just a job, its his destiny. just one listen to a track like august and you know how much painstaking attention to detail, and love, has been poured into the production of these tracks. august is a cerebral sounding track that will lift you to another level. a version of august is featured on the double cd 10 years anniversary compilation gigolos cd 10 (gigolo210) selected by gigolo boss hell. booty bar is another pumping and raunchy tune thats guaranteed to get that ass shakin. its and slammin beats and funky, almost jazzy, synths licks plus the sexy vocal samples gives this number a succinctly gigolo feel to it. with songs like this, its no wonder that woody is one of the most respected german djs on the international scene

number one for splitsound with abnormal boyz & joseph capriati... presenting their image of >electronic music< like a >picture impressed in the vinyl< with an ep with different points of views and the consciousness that the music will break the senses of the listeners... >termal eyes< is a minimal house track of excellent quality, for exigent djs, >another vision of space< is a killing floor track, dangerous alchemy of hypno-grooves with techno flavour. >things changes< remixed by andre crom (heimatmelodie, memo & leftroom) is with his authors words: >the maximise of minimise<, essential structure of bass lines and riffs gives a direct kick into the bones

the beginning of year three in the adjunct chronicles is marked by a 12inch by our own apendics.shuffle. kenneth james gibson has been bombarding the techno scene consistently for the past few years. u_derline, orac, friends of tomorrow, mos ferry, sunset diskos among other labels have served as the carrier for kens deadly weapons. remix duties are taken on by the one and only mathias schaffhäuser , a renowned techno superstar and the founder of ware records. there couldnt have been a better title than >no reduction< to literary describe this monster of a track - ken has unleashed the entire arsenal of his studio for the creation. stern synth patterns pizzicato their way through the track, deep sea signals ring in the background, distorted vocal snippets insist on taking >all the money<. energetic and magnetic dancefloor number dedicated to the real freaks. mathias approaches the rework with smooth drumming and a velvet bassline. the cheeky cabaret vibe however never settles: the diabolical pizzicato of the original returns and the voices continue their demands for (what all adds up to in the end) >no reduction<. oblivious filth brings yet another layer to this joint. beautifully crafted sounds mingle with electro-mechanical noises, layers of melting textures lure the listener into a late night wonderland
