with 2009s magnificiently deep >cone ep< raudive aka oliver ho became an integral part of the ever brilliant macro family. the man is in there for a reason. now he drops one of macros most dancefloor-centered, yet distinctively future forward outings so far. >paper< - the chord, the bass, the strings! all deepness ingredients are there and it would be just classic if it wasnt raudive in control, whose chord is rather acoustic than synthetic, whose strings are rather xenakis than detroit - and whose bassline is just pumping genius blasting any reference system. but its a double pack of excessive excellence. >brittle< is papers evil sister and a giant step in groove design, throwing the thrills of the unknown right at your dancefloor. its repetitious, maniacal vexation patterns put any record to shame that has ever been called hypnotic. 2010 is right here. the ep is rounded off with the shimmering >sienna< - a no-beat melodic variaton set against the warmth of grainy crackle. one of the most thrilling releases by one of the most thrilling labels

spektre kick off their album release with this outstanding sampler

nice price deal !!! fresh from the successful releases on his own depth perception label, and the acclaimed sara on the cult millions of moments, raza returns on new label coloured. coloured exists as a platform for razas trackier pieces, still shot through with the emotion, vibe, spirit and grit of detroit, these expertly constructed club tools are already attracting much praise from a handful of promos. four deep, atmospheric but weighty warehouse workouts, aimed squarely at the floor. as always, a limited one-off vinyl only release. premium grade deep techno - file with styrax, ostgut ton, equalized etc

we kick the package off we have a remix from the mighty radio slave, and he certainly doesnt disappoint. with live keys from tom gandey of cagedbaby fame, he creates an awesome deep house rework, beautiful keys, rising synths and deep piano chords all make it feel like summer is already here.  jesse rose returns turns in a deep and dirty jackin house version, with bumpin bass, heavy swung drums and pitched down vocals, this is sure to tear after hours floors apart.  the rebirth of rising has started, and we cant wait to show what we have coming for you next

meet desto. we found him wandering the streets of helsinki, eating canned tuna and drinking the water from a tin of hot dogs, desperately clutching armfuls of sticky future garage. starting off in spacey 2step rhythms, falling over bassline, and breaking down into an euphoric 8 bit cascade, the epic >disappearing reappearing ink< finally reaches wax after being in the boxes of pretty much everybody all year. on the flip, >broken memory< was given its first exclusive airing by oneman on radio 1 to much acclaim, and takes more of a straight up approach, and retains all of the fluid c64 chiptune beauty.

nice price deal !!! this second release from glasgows fortified recordings is a departure in sound from their first acclaimed ep by dundees loops haunt, but all the same in attitude. iranian born, texas residing garagesmith vvv uses his late night musical tests to forge and perfect his sonic output, and deploys a range of techniques not normally found in the often formulaic world of garage and dubstep. this patchwork quilt of laced beats, field recordings and intensive sample editing has made manifest a four track ep that simultaneously references the work steve gurley, todd edwards, carl craig, my bloody valentine, the cocteau twins and roy davis junior via the bastardised strains of 2-step and house practiced by the likes of ramadanman, untold and joy orbison, peppered with that magic elusive el_b swing that only the greats are able to achieve. at the same time familiar yet different (how many times have you heard that?), the four tracks on projects kick with the intensity of the best club music and invokes the cosmic spirit of classic motor city techno with an uplifting and deep soulful vibe that reveals layers of orchestrated natural sound upon repeated listens. in other words, its sexy as fuck. slated for an official release early march , one can only assume this limited 12inch will fly off the shelf much like fortified s inaugural release did

the one-two kick drum beat that starts “in the dark of the night” functions as a bit of a tease. instead of merely establishing the languid pace of the track, it has the power of suggestion, and its stark nakedness raises the question of what will happen after the music fully launches. a few seconds later, a punch-drunk, flanging keyboard is the first clue that the listener is in for an off-kilter ride, the sauntering bassline that next appears adds a springy, funk bounce. but it’s the tripped-out, multi-tracked vocals of fernando miranda rios, aka michoacan, the producer behind this slow reveal, that give the song its peculiar, space-yvibe. it’s like david byrne with funk aspirations and a vaguely cosmic feel. the b-side remix, courtesy of italy’s clap rules, feels like more of a re-build. the song has been taken apart and put back together with brand new parts. instead of more relaxed, dazed funk at the core, it’s a glittery, disco-ball splattered track with glossy keys all around.

nice price deal !!! a rolling bassline kick that glides trough snapping and chopped up vocals makes this track a certain floor filler. and when half way trough you hear the latino guitar riff slice its way in, you can just wait until it hits off.giving the track power and funk! and incredibile mix of latino funk and straight on 4/ house. on b side you can find an eclectic remix of stoned chicken, who brings out a more samba feel also by dubbing down the guitar, a gradual build up track.

mystery meat kicks off 2010 with quite the bang. a veritable nyc disco supergroup comprised of runaways jacques renault and fellow brooklynite lee douglas, now of both tbd and stallions fame, join the mystery meat club with two certifiable dancefloor bombs. 2009 was an incredible year for both gents with a steady steam of original releases and remixes, spanning all manner of house and disco, and dj gigs the world over

we lost track of rocco branco nearly 5 years ago. no >goodbye<, nothing, he simply vanished off the grid. a few days ago, mr. branco staggered into the hirsch camp, smelling of sex and jaegermeister, no explanation. no apologies. rocco simply handed over two tracks, turned around, and walked away... diamant captures the sex of a one-night stand. a metaphysical launch pad of selfindulgence. no compromises, purely physical, firm and purposeful – precisely how we like our techno. gibbon depicts sex with a lover – reminiscent of gratifications past. familiar, nubile and polished a mastered motion of lustful appetite. in roccos return, we find a record of lifes carnal moments. good hunting!

>chaotisch serie< kicks off with a human sound that could only be composed deep in your throat, a sound that can hardly be described in words... rough and smooth at the same time... screaming for help it seems. then suddenly metallic sounds delay and tumble in... turning into an army of steel beetles swarming the place. plunging into a sweet melody that contorts being followed by trippy delays reminding us of the opening sequence of >the hunger< with catherine deneuve and david bowie at a bauhaus concert, we know this track will be huge.

more ruff jamz from the 6th borough project bunker kicking off with the supa-dupa-slo-mo-soul cut, >slow down baby<, with chopped up strings and heroin-house bassline all present. the flip brings us >closer< to the edit and pitches us nearer the holy grail of tempos. >stratus quo< gives us tracky rhodes action on the intro and sends us a message in the music. number five is alive.

the dc series continues with cosmin trg, known for his releases on hotflush and tempa a.o. >see other people< is an infectious garage stepper, announcing the future of r&b. big tune! >groove control< continues on a techno tip. it starts off deep and mysterious, evolving in a pulsating, acidic bassline driven killer. we like trg!

san francisco, cas surefire sound starts off the new decade with a bang and launches their brand new label with an energetic single by eprom. a fast rising west coast bass technician, dj and producer sander dennis a.k.a. eprom delivers funky, techy fourfour beats on “never.” eprom’s original mix opens with rattling hi-hats and a hushed female vocal accented by eproms patented twitchy synths. a hefty kick drops, braced by a thick, bouncy mid-range bass pattern. like recent tracks by untold or ramadanman, “never” blurs the divisions between dubstep, funky, techno and garage to form an irresistible new creation. hyped newcomer faltydl had a breakthrough year in 2009.

here we have it, the final installment of the >django< trilogy from the unstoppable dorothys fortress. kill django kill is not letting up, from the opening introvision skit (an old vhs company), right through to yul bryner inspired, westworld skit, dorothy is back on form with this stunning ep. kicking off we have >gekko<, and arpeggiated analog monster, hailing back to the early scored synthesis of john carpenter soundtracks. >firefox< is the answer record to the now cult >silencer<, which appeared on the first 12, with its driving basslines and retro synth leads, this is sure to hit hard when played out. next we have >neon cities<, the 808 / detroit inspired electro track, blended with a lo-fi italo disco sound ! finally the daddy of them all, >hell cat< delivers the chubbiest disco groove around, guaranteed to get you moving, or your money back (not legally binding)

played by luciano, tiefschwarz, brothers vibe, anthony collins, livio & roby, giusseppe cennamo and more...!! pachamama in english is the andean peoples word for mother nature. so its no wonder that the chilean native multi talented musician, alejandro vivanco, remixed a track by the same name as it carries with it the message of our earths mother through its energy, positivity and promises of eternal sunshine. both the original and the 2 vivanco mixes are topped off with a funky easy riding 70s horn section and the dub mix is an altogether more housey fuelled track with more hi hats to make you shake off the winter blues. one by one the musical portrait of pachamama unfolds itself in a dreamy soundscape of warm summery beats that coax you to the poolside and dance with you from sunrise to sunset!

resident nick höppner returns with his third release for ostgut ton. after last years >makeover< come three new detailed excursions, plus a remix by lee jones. almost entirely constructed from field recordings taken within the walls of berghain, >brush me down< is a raw and textural jam, uncontrived and jostling with energy. jittery, shuffling and shaking, höppners love for funky, off-kilter percussion shines through as he pieces together a mysterious audio puzzle of found atmospherics, club nights and concerts otherwise committed only to memory yet now preserved and recycled. it also is a hint at what is to be expected from ostgut tons 5 years anniversary compilation this autumn.

we would like to welcome deep a and biri to upon you records. these two up and coming young producers from israel have sent us three jackin house tracks, which we know you will enjoy. wed had an eye on them for a while after hearing their tracks that they released for kammer, trapez and rotary cocktail, all the better that they now have another platform for their darker house style. on a1 we have barzilay a track that is dedicated to the club in tel aviv where deep a is a resident and salutes the vibrant energy of the city. b1 is wilder and more psychedelic. deepa & biri made a gem called emergenze that subtly pushes itself forward then rolls over everything in its path. hoya on b2 keeps the mystical suspense level up where it should be, and adds a bouncier tom-groove to round things off perfectly. shalom!
