planet mu is very pleased to have ikonika a.k.a. sara abdel-hamids first proper release on another label outside of hyperdub.
ikonika is mixmags new artist of the month on the october issue.
>smuck< has been given a home on the label alongside ikonikas remix of eero johannes for this 12 inch ... and what a pair they make.
>smuck< follows in the tradition of ikonika~rs sweet and sour, curdled sound, with ever changing off-key melodies and metal-like synth guitar lines over sweet chilled chords, the track takes her penchant for melodies that border on the atonal as far as it can go, like a sophisticated take on 8-bar grime.
her remix of eero johannes >we could be skweeeerooos< on the b-side simply switches up the tempo of the original, makes the rhythm nice and bouncy and tightens up the original adding some trademark bent melodies and a see-sawing bassline. the end result is a linear, melodic track that feels like its somewhere between wiley and aphex at their sweetest.

superhero by the glass, the second single off their upcoming album, is a pop leaning dancefloor track with an infectious hook. remixes come courtesy of uks luke solomon, founder of classic recordings with derrick carter, and all round house music champion. lukes mix is an old skool rave dub with pulsing percussion, trippy synths and a wonderful retro bassline. esl recordings ursula 1000 plays up the hip hopelements in the original production with 80s electro feel, shimmering hats and a 90s ravey vibe. finally newcomer bit thief brings an amazing nu house remix to the table with an incredible conga heavy mix which includes tenor sax honks and much much more… the glass are on tour in the usa in september and europe in october and december!!!

wonderful 1970s p.c.p inspired 20 track. compilation featuring a highly charged mix of psych funk, prog, afro, glam, cosmic, rock and disco. some very rare pieces on here such as the cosmic reggae inspired 360 degrees, the groovy psych prog of the creative craniums and the raw prototype psych funk of kid rock (not that one). others will be better known to lovers of a more progressive dancefloor such as soundforce and diabolic man which has long been a big spin for dj harvey and lovefingers alike.

october 2009 heralds the release of 5, a double cd marking hyperdubs five years of life as a record label. honouring past, present and future in equal measure, 5 is comprised of one disc of prior highlights, and one of freshly composed material contributed by hyperdub artists and close friends. a series of five 12inch eps featuring a selection of the new tunes will be issued, one per week, leading up to the release of 5. the initial pressing quantity of these eps will be dictated by preorder demand, and none will be repressed, nor will they be made available digitally, before the complete cd collection is on sale.

here it is ... the fourth volume of the rebirth unreleased series. it includes hot material and brand new exclusives: music from artists like a:xus, rocco, tevo howard and andre lodemann.
after a few years of silence austin bascom is back as a:xus another fantastic song! featuring the sweet vocals of graph nobel, >suite disappointment< grew in the last few months and is ready for a full release in october. the original package included mixes from pete heller, james teej and motorcitysoul, and received the support of a diverse range of djs. it has been played by tiesto, erik morillo and joris voorn in their essential mixes on bbc radio1. rocco (rodamaal), who loved and supported the original mix for months, drops two deeper, soul infused, techytinged remix, proper house music we ve heard in a while! food for your soul!
just signed from rebirth, angela k. is an artistic alter ego born in 2005: angela scalvini, conservatory trained songwriters, meets the electronic artist isacco zanola and experimental guitarist maurizio rinaldi. from germany, rising producer andre’ lodemann, transforms >ballad< into a soulful techno master-piece that grows and grows with every play. takes the strength and sharp nature of the original and sets it against a clinically clean and instantly mesmerising techno backdrop, a gorgeous concoction of shrill synths and crisp beats!
a mysterious figure in music tevo howard is surely a very talented producer coming from chicago. his brand new track >crazy love< is already big for djs like tiga, tensnake, manuel tur and deetron!

perc trax returns with its 30th vinyl release with a split ep showcasing the works of both its newest and most established acts.
first up is ben gibson with 2 tracks that feature on his forthcoming perc trax album >in a realized luck of immanence<. both tracks instantly demonstrate what made jeff mills sign ben to his axis offshoot 6277. bens sound is a dense, atmospheric take on the now-classic uk techno sound of surgeon, regis, ruskin etc and both the rolling bass of >vanished between< and the sharp stabs of >wirklichkeit< prove that he is an artist to watch out for.
on the b-side label boss perc hooks up with the labels canadian connection metalogic to deliver 2 tracks that flit between broken beat and 4/4 rhythms with ease. both tracks feature an attention to detail that both perc and metalogic are known for with endless dubbed out synths and effects keeping the tracks interesting but never getting in the way of the crisp beats. these tracks have already been road tested around the world by perc in recent months and will be a key part of a launch party for this ep in toronto in october.

microscope contents is the first single to be taken from kelpes forthcoming third album for dc recordings cambio weschel (which is released on october 12th 2009). it begins with the eponymous title track - an infectious, bass driven, electro melody which pulses over a constantly evolving percussive groove...

andy vaz recovered this data in 2006 for persistencebit records.

the upper austrian youngster has been addicted to electronic music since his early youth. after experimenting with different kinds of music he was fascinated from techno and house music and decided to buy his own dj equipment. through his outstanding talent in mixing records it didn t take him much time to be booked to local clubs and festivals. due to his unmistakable style of djing he attracted the crowd and found his own place in the austrian house- and techno scene. after his successful start as dj he started being interested in producing. at the moment he is expanding his international career and producer skills with the music association >elmart - electronic music art<. in october 2008, his stunning remix of chris eckers >when they say hello< was released on the german label >resourced music<. a month later, mike absolom released his first vinyl single >from absolom to heaven< on >elmart<. in 2009, he did several remix projects for mike turrentos >tele commander< on >elmart<, stefano vozzas title 2 on the irish label >dublin xpress records< and rob glennon on >nice &nd nasty records< with other remixers like orlando voorn, paul mac and many more

another legendary techno producers deliver the goods on be as one. this time is swedens own samuel l session with 2 singles straight out of his upcoming first ever artist album, soon to be released on the israeli label. big bad drum is exactly what the title says, a drums driven track with a bassline reminiscent of saundersons e-dancer techno. already tested by a few lucky ones, this tune is having a monster impact on the dancefloors with its funky snares and distinctive over voice . chimes still carries an old school vibe, taking a classical and deeper approach. sls sound at its best, reminds us why the don has been here for the last 15 years. a solid preview of what to expect from samuels album, classical groovy techno which reminds us how real techno is suposed to sounds like. forthcoming on be as one in october.

disconet was created as subscription program service, which professionally selected and mixed disco music for discotheque djs, mobile discos and radio stations. disconet is called as the granddaddy of all remix services and provided mixed/segued dj dance sets, not only to make the djs job a little bit easier, but to expose club goers to new music. the djs spinning at the height of the disco era were given access to a new creative tool - a different interpretation of current dance tunes to wow club goers. originally, the disconet records were to be issued on a monthly basis which were limited to 1000 - 1500 copies of each volume. the first disconet record was released in october 1977. disconet team at that time was: tom savarese, bobby dj guttadaro and kevin guilmet as well as mike wilkinson. tom, bobby and kevin were dj legends, who had already been awarded with the dj of the year title by billboard. these greatest hits volumes contain their finest work, the original licensed disco edits of all the floor fillers of the time that have been re issued for your listening pleasure. expect many more volumes in the near future.

played by brothers vibe , gerd janson (running back)... introducing two brand new lindstrom tracks: the magnificent and disturbing the perfect symmetry the leftover ep came about when prins thomas, todd terje and smalltown supersound were let into the lindstrom vaults so to speak. lindstrom makes a lot of music obviously (he has one album out this year already with prins thomas and another one with christabelle coming in october), and these were two tracks just laying around that he hadnt thought about releasing. when both prins thomas, todd terje and his label insisted that the tracks had to be released, he decided it was maybe a good idea to make another 12inch since it had actually been a while since the last one. and we are all happy by that. these are some of his finest moments. his signature melodies and sound are all here ready set dancefloors on fire. hope you like them as much as we do. enjoy!

this is the first ep from claude vonstrokes new album due out october, 2009. it represents the deeper, moodier shades of the full-length project. the lead track, >aundy< is featured prominently as the closing music for claudes epic fabric 46 mix to be released on the same day as this vinyl. it is also a homage to the 90s drum bass sound of people like ltj bukem and good lookin records. on the flip, >storm on lake saint claire< is a vibing summer track that builds and sways with cascading melodies raining down on your ears. it is a perfect building block for bridging the gap between moody house and big room thunder.

crimea x is the coming together of two offbeat, disparate characters, dj rocca (ajello, super sonic lovers, maffia sound system) and jukka reverberi from 90s italian glam cult rockers, giardini di mir, who have often have been compared with the sound of mogwai, arab strap, godspeed you! black emperor. hailing from the far flung cosmos of reggio emilia, italys coolest post rock, cosmic disco outfit, crimea x launch a stellar ep of musical gems titled, phoros, get ready for pure, spaced out balearic bliss as the italo duo take you on a round trip journey to the electro cosmos and back. dj rocca and jukka were brought together by the common passion for cosmic imaginary soundscapes, where kraut rock fuses with the predilection for marxist thought and political stories of last century. the end product is a tantalising myriad of musical styles and tongue in cheek ethos, satirising the sociopolitical climate of our modern era.

heavy support by: thomas schumacher, nick warren, dubfire, dave ellesmere, james lavelle, osunlade, october, peter kruder, chaim, kiki, 3channels, stacey pullen, joel mull, lützenkirchen...

now this is some seriously nasty shiznit from surgeon. recorded live at club fabrikken on oslo, this twelve contains beefed up and refixed versions of the well loved surgeon classics >screw the roses<, >body request<, >october request< and >bad hands break<. the 4 tracks were taken from an audio/visual set surgeon did at the aforementioned club and perfectly capture the uncompromising intensity of his laptop dj sets.

rmxs by clouded vision & noob ! i met brodi early last year, he had a track called >bad runner< that i had been playing incessantly. it leaked onto blog sites months before its release on mental groove in october 2007. it found its way into erols box among many others very early on and the hot fuss began. as a dj, despite hailing from france (reims, lille), unexpectedly brodis taste is broad. if your expecting banging gnarly electro bombs… unlucky. he can play anything from noisy techno, bass heavy house through to more melodic minimal. plus, if you think you spend more time searching the net for new tunes than anyone else, think again. this guy is committed and now his second, and even better ep is here and he has saved it just for turbo

guy j returns with this double a sided release of >fall star< / >lunar< after the release of his debut album >esperanza< which picked up rave reviews from djs and press the world over. >lunar< also featured on john digweeds bedrock 10 mix cd and was one of the highlights of the bedrock party at matter in october as well as the space closing party in ibiza. both tracks are full on four to the floor tech-house workouts that reaffirm just how talented a producer guy j is and follow on nicely from the earlier releases this year of >geko<, >under pressure< and >save me<.!

ffms premium label for deep & minimal sounds qualitative high above standard dance stuff is back from the summer break. traditionally lnz mastermind pascal feos himself lights the lnz release oven and adds his label cataloque with two endurance track runners. it may surprise, how airly the runner with starting number 1 floats through the colourful wood of golden october, cheered on by moogy mild hookline that strokes the drum body. from time to time the race track passes some clearings, the chilling atmosphere of pascal feos side-project aural float waves at the horizon. but then he trots on and on embraced by the feeling of runners high. with the racing number 2 the >generator child< starts athletic but thoughtful on his tom tom-dymanic soles, more and more leading into an 808-hypnotic run on black asphalt. a >generator child< speech sample trails off in the dusk and an lfo-spiralled veil of mist twirls over the head of the scared kid.

october 6th 2008 heralds the return of london based cult afro latin funk duo da lata with this is not your job, plus disco and deep house remixes from faze action, the layabouts and yass.

stewart rowell & louis gaston are otherwise known as the streetlife djs with over 30 years turntable experience between them, and a blatant disregard for music genres! the rules are, there are no rules! they add samples, accapellas & sound fx to the equation. compliment that with some of the most cutting edge electronic dance and alternative and the result is something exciting and very refreshing. the pair lives in london, is resident at together and also plays at ministry of sound, renaissance, the end, chibuku shake shake, gatecrasher summer soundsystem, ibizas space, get loaded, gobal gathering etc. the track will be featured on the much expected kitsuné maison 6 compilation out in october with a club version on the b-side, this new tracks from the english superproducers is sure to be the falls dancefloor anthem

hot off the heels of onur Özers most excellent mind melt album kasmir, released october of 2007, comes the reinterpretations on vakants vr division. wonderfully thought out, vr handles remixes exclusively leaving vakant itself pure to its artists. this constellation leaves everyone free to the corruption of their fancy, allowing the artists to choose their own remixers. with onur, finding willing interpreters is not a difficult task and the heavy of the heavies representing the light and dark sides of the force are here on vr04. on the a side loco dice, aka tunisian born yassine ben achour, takes onurs instrument laden >eclipse< and puts it through the treatment. what comes out the other end is popping state-of-the-art tech house with onurs depth and loco dices spontaneous flow. on the flip things get serious. jens zimmermann , the deep, deep, freak out master hailing from frankfurt, contributes his own spin on >sahara<

nice summer westcoast flavoured tracks by jay j!!! prepare for beach party action!!!

not another promo text!?!? we find that all of the music produced by harry axt speaks volumes, therefore we simply (and happily!) offer you these two new tracks. it s worth mentioning that this is the last ep from harry axt before his album release in october on rompecabeza music. the whole summer he will indulge in a production break, so that he may doze in the sun, test every type of beer possible, demolish enormous amounts of grilled meat and danish ice cream, and then completely concentrate this replenished creativity on his debut album. then, while the sun fades away for another season, he will let the sunshine back into our ears…

electro remixes for this danish indielectrock band. dune have been around since 2001 and they have played more than two hundred shows to date in denmark and abroad. the young band stands for synthie influenced high energy rock with crisp guitars and fantastic hooks. their much praised debut album >we are in there, you are out here< was released in october 2007

ny/nj house producer jihad muhammad, whos previously had releases on west end records, easy street and iwanai out of canada, bestows us with a very special 3 song instrumental ep, 2 of which can be found on this october 2007 sampler. the piano mix of ascension is a gorgeous 124.5 bpm affair with plenty of plucky strings, a deep but not heavy balearic kick & bass drum, bouncy bassline, intermittent synth, & distinctive jazzy piano riffs that ll get the head nodding and hips swaying. expansions is another lovely instrumental but with more of an afro cuban percussive production whle keeping all of the dreamy piano chords and riffs intact and alive. feel the flow and head for the dancefloor…

alfred azzetto is back on purple music with the feel good massive anthem colors, which was one of the most played promo cuts at this year winter music conference. interestingly djs all the time played an acapella over it but also the instrumental melody sounds great. part one includes the walterino main mix is a fierce production featuring classic strings and wicked keys that give the track a modern disco sound, while the piano mix is on a deeper edge, with a great piano hook added (that is reminiscent of bas noir my love is magic). part two includes a full vocal mix & the remixes from dj fopp & christian hornbostel, which will be out end of october. it was worth to wait some months for the release of this tune!
