nobody knows where these guys were beforehand, but this record is a real hit. a new release has emerged from an equally new label - detroit techno archive it reflects the labels name perfectly. the 12inch recording includes six wonderful detroit techno tracks, from a couple of artists. the first associations that come to mind are detroit legends like underground resistance, derrick may, stacey pullen, kenny larkin, and octave one. youll find some old-school techno with a rich groove, multilayered melodies, and some great stories behind them. this is real hi-tech jazz.

mike okay is back on the dancefloor after a big roadtrip during the worlds largest kindergarten. his new release, called fogel, comes along in three different versions. the original, an edit from himself and a remix from the old but newborn fly motherfucker. you can take the mike versions as sure shot for good vibriations on every floor.... continoues groove and some sweet kids behind the mic are the main cheese, whats fully filled up with fat bass. when you start or end the night try to handle the fly motherfucker remix. the slower walking groove is straight right for this. mixed up with the emo synthi its just a wonderfull dreaming interpretation and perfect to fall into a moody winterdancefloordepression. so the next what! what! episode from its founder mike okay is on the run.....lets fetz!

boutique french house label vibes and pepper come through with a various artist outing that pairs the new school talents of tomska and new jack city with the old school and enduring qualities of james duncan and jeremiah.

avotre goes from strength to strength with labelowner sante being busy in discovering great new releases and talents every few months. after roadtesting this tune from darlyn vlys (area remote, rawthentic) it was a must for him to give him a go on avotre. the infectious grooves and dark vibes of darlyns original are just made for his dj-sets. and definitely yours as well. on the remix you will fnd a avtr ( sante & sidney charles) which is more upfront and reminds on old warehouse raves.

label boss dj bone mans the controls for the 38th release on subject detroit, laying down a typically fierce, three pronged auditory attack. *what he said* tactfully yet forcefully treads the line between house and techno, cherry picking physiognomies from each side of that ever-blurring line and constructing something fresh but bristling with familiar subject detroit elegances. a favourite fixture from bones more recent dj sets, *i do* sees bubbling, arpeggiated chords simmer and swoop from foreground to background loosely as one solitary, remanipulated ticking hat keeps things in formation. watch out for the thunderous, doubled-up drum arrangement that crashes in to the picture out of nowhere! b side track *rhythm soul funk* is a genuine hard hitter and another that tiptoes between the old school and the nouveau.

ricardo tobar is releasing his long awaited debut album treillis on established french label desire (ike yard, monoton, live skull, keluar, deathday, egyptology, etc). inspired by mysticism & noise, ricardo uses old drum machines, analog equipment and also samples he has been storing since some years to create dirty sounding drums, modulated synth sounds and keeping far away from the more expected and polished sounds most artists are using.

fast ein jahr nach dem letzten release von ron deacon sind wir glücklich, dass wir vier neue tracks direkt aus dem farside lager präsentieren können. die shooting stars paskal & urban absolutes haben eine erstaunlich clubtaugliche live-version ihrer farside-klassikers in moskau aufgenommen. henry l ist zurück mit seinen außergewöhnlichen groove skills, einigen old school sample vibes und einem augenzwinkern nach detroit. matt flores besticht mit einem glatten und anspruchsvollen dub-tech-monster, und schließlich halten henry l & ingo sänger die dinge ein wenig mehr hypnotisch.

tusk off-shoot horn wax unite two kindred spirits that span house musics generations, emerging new yorker pixelife and legendary london pirate stalwart yusuf complement each others work with timeless grooves and serious respect to the source. as a result, both of these cuts are littered with analogue heaviness and acid funk. *filament in strata* wafts with big synth chords and mischievous 303 squiggles while *wardrum acid* lives up to its name in every way. proof there is still heaps of life in the old machines, these will resonate with all ages and tastes. limited hand-stamped hand-numbered 180 gram vinyl 12 inch.

bucharests electronic scene is surely flourishing these days. new artists, new sounds and, not least, new labels appear almost every day. it was time for old comrades piticu and herodot to start one of their own. unanim is the name they have unanimously chosen to represent them. first come out the sounds of piticu which are rather techno and agressive. it is time to dance on both sides of tipic ep and we unanimously like the ideea.

hamsa intenational are hitting us with some obscure and analog live jams for club use only. rigid grooves that transform subtly by the use of frequency cuts and vocal chops make bodytalk an interesting lo-fi sounding yet energetic jam for peak hours and after. the analog warmth thats filling up the speaker cans comes straight out of old machines and a tape recorder.

cassegrain & tin man are a deadly combination. old school acid lines programmed by one of the greatest masters in this field meet a super modern techno sound design by cassegrain, who have made themselves a name in the last years for producing some of the finest in dark and experimental techno. for the follow up to their debut release on killekill they have put together three tracks that are outstand- ing. high & low is a slowly swelling minimalistic acid epos of over 10 minutes length which proves the mas- tership of tin man in programming acid loops of eternal quality. 8 beats length only, but constantly evolving. no chance for boredom. the b-side starts with sex kit, a dark acid stomper with a chirping percussion which is well suitable for the peaktime dancefloor, followed by sand maze, a sublte minimalistic ambient acid piece, that winds its way into total dissolution. we are quite sure that this is the way acid should sound in 2013.

studio bruno is the joint project of johannes beck as well as his friend musicians and producers. the concept of studio bruno is based on a one week stay at studio bruno in an old farmhouse in steigerwald, franconia, a lovely nature park in north bavaria, where each musician invited brings a machine or an instrument of his choice. the focus of that week is the common producing and live improvising.for the first record steffen bennemann (nachtdigital) and sevensol (kann) were invited. sevensol brought his tr-707, his monotron delay and steffen bennemann came with his field recorder. the result of this one-week session is a deep house track with a distorted synth line and a krautrock-slash-funky jazz track!

warm and crispy as always, the third monday night - mixed, structured and recorded live on tape. the whole ep is a cutting-edge merger between old school and modern, carefully crafted sounds, to forge an outstanding collection of deep house tracks with a timeless fashion.the opening track on side a serves a gentle two-chord loop, locked with a groove beat progression, whilst track two builds up a dense swarm of rapid drums, with synthetic bursts twirling on an energetic bassline. on the b side, a bare, rampant one note bass leads a haunting, gloomy first track, whose main theme is surrounded by recurring confused, scatterbrained vocal samples, while the second one is characterized by the simplicity of an upright, stabbing rhythm directing an emotive one note chord. the ending track develops around a big, serious bassline, pleasantly contrasting with a succession of dreamy, floating melodies and noises

two boys and girls on the spur of the moment. they are wearing masks to hide their faces. no one should know who they are. all members are old hands at different music scenes. now the world has to face a new act called a band of crickets! it is the first release of the new label behind the black curtain.

merkur releases its 6th ep which has a new, different approach compared to the last eps for which it has gained much praise during the past 5 years. the a-side >theme of mercury< was produced by label founder shingo suwa and akirahawks, who is known for the unique re-edit label house mannequin. the two of them mainly perform at homopatik in berlin. theme of mercury is a hypnotic track which was created with some broken old synth and sends your mind on an intergalactic odyssey, before diving into the deepest ocean on a journey to forget about space and time. the first track of the b-side is a remix from ducerey ada nexino aka yuji kondo, also known for his work under both his own name and as a half of steven porter on semantica. the remix fastens up the mix by repetitive pulsating synths, giving the beat an industrial modern atmosphere and letting the crowd heating up. the second track on the flip-side, called >barsoom<, is a solo production by shingo and completes the whole package. the functional work of a cut up 303 acid line with raw bass and a running groove creates an insistent and deeply pressured feeling. vinyl only, limited to 300 copies.

after 2 years where the old stories were still being carried around and re-told over and over by the worlds discjockey the next mysterious deephouse raconteur finally adds a new tome to the old legend in his own distinctive, unmistakable style: while the narrative is effectively and assuredly driven on by a classical yet forceful 4/4 rhyme structure the vocabulary is more playful, experimental and abstract with melodic fragments evoking pictures of vast, futuristic landscapes and a mood of deep contemplaton and enlightened serenity. another satisfying pageturner
