für diese ep taten sich oliver schories, anerkannter und extrem aufstrebender super newcomer und holgi star, altrocker und gefühltes technoinventar zusammen, um der welt ihren spaß an guter und gehaltvoller techno musik zu zeigen.
herausgekommen sind zwei schöne, treibende, emotionsgeladene, tränen ins auge drückende, einfach moderne tech-house-tracks, die ohne große umschweife auf den punkt kommen.
holgi legte mit seinem buddy pierre deutschmann noch einen remix auf, und als sich dann noch julie* (der turnbeutel) entschloss mit einer gehörigen portion girlpower >miss you< zu verdedeln, brachen entgültig alle dämme :-)
kurzum: rauf auf die teller damit!

ob andreas henneberg nun wirklich vom tasmanischen teufel besessen ist? immerhin hat er einen song der tasmanischen hauptstadt hobart gewidmet und reitet auf dieser wunderbaren ep durch die wildnis des fünften kontinents. so hat jeder seine geheimnisse. neben hobart versammeln sich mit drip off und skid mark insgesamt sogar drei geheimwaffen, die nicht nur in australien die outbacks zum leben erwecken.

played and supported by luke slater, dvs1, laurent garnier, adam x, marcel fengler, samuli kemppi, inigo kennedy, jeroen search, truncate and more. asr is a record label with a strong inspiration in cosmology, physics and science fiction. with one foot in detroit and one in birmingham, asr is getting the techno in its original form beyond fads. we are believers in the true conception of electronic music as artistic expression and as message. our first release is also the first volume of the series vla, named in honor of the radio telescopes system in the very large array of new mexico (usa). radio transmission true to the sound of detroit and influenced by idm and the birmingham scene, radio trasmission presents a crude and analog sound, sometimes simple and sometimes twisted, synthesizing unconventional elements of the dancefloor with complex sounds and structures. the first track,grote reber, works around the omnipresent tr909 and the classic dx100 solid bass sound, building a powerful and effective track. in interferometry, a heavy and deep sub bass, leads the track around dub and post industrial ways. cyg x-1, is the only track that isnt 4x4, with noisy and punchy stabs all around, this works perfectly late in the night and in more uncommon sessions. the last track,vla is more melodic and relaxed. it is the perfect end for the whole record.

bokhari records is a vinyl only label. bokhari has been inspired by mo wax of old, and firecracker of present where care was/is also taken on packaging and design. each release will feature a different illustrator / artist for the design. musically we will aim to stick loosely within the realms of house and techno, but often with our own slant on it, and as the first release shows, in this case will include some afro percussion and a touch of acid. bokhari 001 only 300 copies will be pressed. artwork for release 001 is by the excellent illustrator andy potts (former head of design at abbey road studios), and every single vinyl will be signed and numbered. remix comes from the ever consistent mark e, who has taken the shrunken head bassline and made a 10 minute druggy, chuggy, loopy, creepy monster (and anything else you want with a ‘y’ at the end!)

he works of conrad schnitzler will always be important. not only for m=minimal. ricardo villalobos and max loderbauer were so fascinated by the zug that they immediatly accepted to deliver two reshapes of this milestone of electronic music. (we already released zug on vinyl - mm-001lp) max loderbauer is a veteran of the berlin techno scene, who became known with his project >sun electric<. for his current project nsi and as a member of the >moritz von oswald trio< max loderbauer enjoys a worldwide reputation. his great cooperation with ricardo villalobos, for the legendary ecm label, appears in many >best of 2011< lists. richardo villalobos is one of the leading techno dj / producer / musicians. he influenced the scene for more than 15 years. the >aktion< mix targets with 100 percent certainty on the dance floor, but is also suited to wake you up in the morning. djs need this twenty minute mix as a tool. burner. the >sorgenkind< mix is not for the mainfloor but for fans of the broken beats. everybody who enjoyed the re-ecm work of the two will love this 15 minutes mix. schnitzler / loderbauer / villalobos = dreamteam

we are very proud and honered to release this ep by function aka dave sumner from sandwell district. one of technos true underground heroes, function (dave sumner) has been djing and making music for over 15 years. hailing from new york, he was seduced by techno music when jeff mills held a residency (as well as his own first) at the limelight in the early 90s. dave started to produce music and from the mid-90s onwards, put out music on damon wilds synewave and his own infrastructure imprint. together with regis (karl o connor) he worked as portion reform, putting out uncompromising music on downwards and becoming the only non-birmingham producer to release on the label. in 2008 dave moved to berlin, still working with regis, and now silent servant (john mendez), put his focus on the acclaimed sandwell district imprint. obsessed is a supper powerfull floating track for the dancefloor, a typical function production. this ep also contains remixes from substance and scb aka scuba, both peak-time tracks.

limited edition vinyl reissue of the deeply balearic and impossible-to-find extended version of the magnificent tranquillo (melt my heart) from the one and only carly simon. produced by the acclaimed arif mardin, who also worked with such luminaries as aretha franklin, esther philips and donny hathway, this 1978 classic rides soulful disco-tinged waves of blissful strings, heady horns and cosmic guitars with a rich orchestral feel - no wonder this is a such a firm favourite on the balearic scene with djs in the know from harvey to phil mison. originally released on a promo-only 12 inch single with the same version on both sides, tranquillo is here backed by another essential sun-drenched gem from ms. simon - >you belong to me<. a jazzy, breezy summer groover laced with gentle piano, soothing vocals and some amazing saxophone from virtuoso david sanborn. welcome chance to grab an affordable copy of this highly desirable 12 inch.

on >work that shit party<, a fingers inc. style rhythm buttresses a two-note riff, a crackling male voice filtering in from the ether. a pinging keyboard zips around before that two-note flicker expands and contracts, warps and wheedles. but around halfway in, a female vocal refrain of >gonna work it out< breaks fat lacerations into pinholes, blaring keyboards seeping in through the gaps and crevices. then, as with >d117<, it is the congealing of all these disparate elements: a work it out from fischerspooners lizzy yoder sashaying with the two-note riff, the keyboards bouncing off the ceiling, and flaring hi-hats fraying the surface played by pat mahoney (lcd soundsystem). each portion is given its due, only to make the ensuing combination that much more enthralling.

featuring the rolling, techy vibes of smashface and the paranoia inducing test subject, jade (with the help of ryme tyme) continues to push eatbrain to the forefront of neuroconnoisseurs everywhere.smashface (feat. ryme tyme): beginning with an ominous intro full of dark twangs and rasping clicks,smashface revs up the tension until jade pulls the trigger one of the meanest basslines around. a thumping subbass dominates, with precision synths and the molten, lyrical delivery of ryme tyme skittering over the top. a perfect blend of relentless drive, flawless production and infectious vocals,smashface comes from renowned two artists who continue to innovate. test subject sees jade change the pace and bring forth the darkest vibes. featuring an intro that wouldnt seem out of place in a horrsor film,test subject is neurofunk at its most menacing. after an atmospheric built up, the track transforms into a sophisticated roller, with all the hallmarks of another classic jade production. combining unsettling synth stabs with a submerged sub and ominous pads,test subject delivers a claustrophobic, paranoia inducing groove will find its way into only the grittiest dj sets.

there can only be one who is holding up the flag of unique, varied, thrilling and satisfying minimal music

props can only be directed to his home base label, tiefschwarz: souvenir music and to his music crony, rampa for nourishing re.you with the swing he needs to deliver the beats fans adore. and every so often he wanders about seeking labels to harvest his funky house seeds in. so when the berlin-based producer and dj planted a mind-blowing, full on dance ep at the mobilee headquarters to kick of the 2012 summer, they were thrilled to watch the magic flourish. the a side is home to mind your head, a funky vocal piece featuring daniel wilde with just the right drops between its smooth grooves. a crazy trip through the mind after a wild night out gives this track a boisterous appeal completely eliminating any dark and heavy elements. junction is on the flip and isn’t too far off the button as it keeps the upbeat tempo grooving with the background percussions. re.you hijacks the mood and keeps the number high-spirited and actively exciting by offering a non-stop party package.

laurine frosts long overdue second ep for thema is upon us in all its dark, oblique splendor. 2009s thematique showed the mysterious hungarian producers deft sound design and uncanny programming married with a wide breadth of musical tastes and unpredictable choices of composition. it seems that these attribute have only sharpened and are now driving a much more groove-focused approach. so enjoy this, yet another left turn from thema. we are proud to bring you the best from those artists working beyond the well-worn paths of electronic dance music and we are glad laurine could come back to guide us just a little farther off that path.

after their first hello on the 6 years hive compilation adriatique is back on hive audio with a full ep. the swiss- based duo recently released some remarkable pieces of music in the last months with amzing feedbacks and chart-postitions. the aint nobody ep shows a few typical adriatique sounds but has a darker touch. the original a-side is filled with some old school housebeats paired with heavy synth work, deep vocals & a rolling bassline which makes this track work for every time of the night or morning. atapys remix of aint nobody goes into the same direction but delivers his very own interpretation. he put on the atapy stamp through his characteristic synthmelodies. then we have another original track from adriatique. mind games is a heavy dance floor track with lots of content. pretty much electronic with melodies and spoken vocals which really put mind games on the map. overall all tracks are made for the club and will achieve their goal. dancing not only with the body but also with the soul.

apartments 3rd release comes courtesy of acclaimed producer lerosa. for this, his first release of 2012, he delivers 4 electro-based cuts, a rarely seen side to the man predominantly known for his house productions. the sparse and melancholic combat starts off proceedings, before titaniums throbbing bass, combined with mr. rosas unique melodic sensibilities, increases the pace. on the b-side slavery is a furious acid jam, constantly rising in energy over hectic percussion and a wall-shaking electro beat. finishing on decisions, the pace is reduced considerably while the acid stays intact, delivering the 12 inchs only 4/4 kick for what is lerosas most euphoric cut to date.

with >dazed<, senking continues his exploration of the abysses of sound to create dark and gloomy atmospheres. the slow beats of the two tracks are accompanied by tender, harmonic melodies, but broken by nervous, unsteady tones which seem to be a warning against hidden dangers. the first track >the dance hall walk< also features a vocal sample by micheal cramm - a text which reflects the nervousness and excitement in anticipation of some thrilling things to come. like >tweek<, senkings last ep, >dazed< is not only concerned with the depths of sound, but also with the depths of the human psyche, where there is no escape other than music itself.

another super cool release from this great new label.this time highlighting the skills of portuguese dj/producer joao teixeira who gives us a classy slice of a detroit house at its best. included is a silky smooth remix from james flavour (one half of dirt crew). a must for detroit deep house lovers! very limited pressing of 180 vinyls only,no re-press.bonus: free wav digital download for those who purchase the vinyl!
