5 new mnml/clubby old/new skool trx // proper warehouse vibe - dj chloe support

next strike from rising star pedro delgardo !! >illusion< is a mind blowing track sure to please djs & dancers alike. the 2 track b side feat. the underground track >infectious<, a stormtrooping track featured on a carl coxs dj magazine mix cd which pulsates with an infectious synth riff & jamming groove, while struggle, has a touch of old school club flavor throughout each dope groove. djs heavily spreading the delgardo vibe(s) carl cox, eddie halliwell, tiesto, paul van dyk, james zabiela, sander van doorn, marco v, dj misjah, ferry corsten, anne savage, trevor rockliffe, umek, valentino kanzyani, sasha, mistress barbara, kevin saunderson, judge jules and marco bailey to name a few.

from the four corners of the globe (sort of) comes a collection of some of the hottest club bangers 130bpm has ever seen. first up is dangerous in the 80s from kid who (brixton) who managers to unite the strange pairing of calvin harris and busta rhymes to make an old school electro tinged post classic combination. t wrecks (toronto) is next out the box with stabs, cut ups and the think break that turns timbalands tune into a baltimore anthem. estaw (amsterdam) takes the hip hop anthem of all hip hop anthems, breaks it down, builds it up, bobs, weaves, throws a right hook, throws some ds on it and throws the dance into a frenzy. last but not least, jim sharp (london / toronto) re animates talib kwelis ode to the fairer sex into a fidgety, bumpy, electro slab of sound that makes feminine undergarments moist.

excellent electro (pop) tune. rework of an old german new wave (ndw) nichts tune!

finest minimal tech!! back with a new strong number 02! gs remains true to oneself and unites old friends: laurent bovey (laps, digitaline), gregory poncet (gregorythme, digitaline) and georg bleikolm (knor) spent their wild youth in lausanne. music always pushed them forward and now their ways crossed in zurich again.

after the hugely popular conf006 (inc bitch fuck) comfortable records returns with three choice underground cuts. 76-79 (aka label owners vigo & tomski) show they are adept at creating 3 totally fresh and edgy house cuts that will appeal to a minimal or tech house floor. however if house/minimal is not energetic enough for you, check >six ten< for a record that llies halfway between techno & house & is layered with some very nice old school sounds. this ep really breaks the mold!! in the past when these artists have released tracks they have had a massive amount of praise from the likes of laurent garnier, rob mello, mr scruff, charles webster & fabrice lig. this release is a prime example of why they deserve such high merits & is destined to becoming just at large as comf006

for the 19th clr release we welcome alex bau, an old acquaintance who delivers two perfect peak time, little bit minus flavoured minimal techno weapons

this time hertz is back with a funk fuelled energy bomb that balance in between an old school vibe ala 1998 and a fresh approach for 2008. expected support from a wide range of djs. on the filp you will find a track with a repetitive acid-sounding bassline but without the 303. this is rather a fresh synth that gets the tweeking. on the b2, you find a pierre j remix that takes care of the house-ier sounds

excellent jackin and tribaling electro tech trax.. old school influences

dario zenkers new label !! ralph sliwinski is allready known from his releases on labels like below, morris audio or hartchef discos and surely for a good reason. he is one of the producers who have their own unique style which is recognizable directly. analog old school sounding beats fat as the women of the us mc donalds promotion campaign. this ep is smoove,dubby,crispy,housy,gay, played by usher and all other westcoast rappers around…

after their track on the datapunk compilation various punks come here the follow up 3 tracker on kritik. >ghost in the street< is an uplifting effects-monster, in the tradition of the old dj t records. >lowtecs workshop remix< will melt the hearts of c craig fans. he’s scooping the market with his new label workshop and will do it with this one too. finally, >bubble< once again rocked it hard! come in lisbon.

new kanadas adam marshall delivers a stunning peak-hour track with obvious inspiration from old school detroit techno and classik chicago house. >kokane< begins as a tightly wound minimal house groove with precise, pounding percussion and heavily swung jack. after the 3:30 mark the track gives way glistening synth chords which shine through the darkness transporting the cut into carl craig-ish jazz territory. on the flip, montreals ernesto ferreyra mutek, cynosure brings a south american flavour to the remix and takes the dancefloor oddessy deep into the chilean canyons. a late night mixing tool for the djs. lastly, we find the outro called >moonlight chills< on the second cut of side b. ambient and lush, this one is for the late night detroit highways. mojo and the darkness along i75! a deep ending to a very personal journey.

peter introduces himself like this, >ive started making music with an oric-1 home computer in the middle of the 80ties, later the commodore amiga was the flagship and then....the casio fz1 and now i use the galaxy of software and the korg mx1, roland tr727, roland jx8p, korg ms20, yamaha tg33, yamaha dx7 so i guess that it makes things clear, peter is one of these producers that uses older analogue machines along more recent software gears. and you can sure hear it in its productions, it sounds huge, powerful while style wise keeping things on to the soul filled part of the dance floor. peter delights us here with two stunning tracks that contain modern beats structures echoing rather old school house patterns and hooks. as always with peters incredible music, originality, surprises and ingeniosity are 100% at the rendezvous

kontra-musik 006 moves the label into the analog domain of electronic dance music. this kind of sound you only get with the good old analogues. the a-side, produced by the master of the modular system, pseudonym scaff, takes us deep down our favorite techno memory lane. if techno was the meeting of kraftwerk and george clinton in an elevator, ssm 440 is the outcome of jeff mills and maurizio having breakfast at tiffanys. this track is warm, dubby and monotonous but with a drive heading straight for the late night dance floor. the b-side gives us two unique sounding tracks from pseudonym aparatus. city tunnel slowly and elegantly grinds, cranks and turns while building its way towards dance floor bliss. x-presso is best described as periodic fluctuations of voltages in the analog domain. elegant details of beautiful sound take us back to the time when minimal music still was interesting. this is >techno< in the sense that the term was originally intended. enjoy cause analog is the bastard

with tuomas salmela aka phonogenic, we welcome one of the most established finnish techno and house producers, with releases on 2020 vision, poker flat, moodmusic or f-com-munications. salmelas sound has something dark, reminding of the long finnish winters and cold nights. he does not feast in old times or posts the question of oldskool or newskool, but simply has produced something really new, without getting lost in clicks n cuts or doing too much sound research. phonogenic uses sentimental harmonies and stringent direct beats, that dont need complex building arrangements, but come to the point rather quickly and make clear where the journey will take us. similarly to guy gerber, phonogenics productions also are somewhere in between techno and houseand even use elements of trance. however, salmelas productions always make the impression of being well planned and moody
