brill deep superfunk !! classic from 1999

incl. fantastic rmx by milton jackson ( freerange) ! in the box of jimpster, josh wink, anja schneider, ewan pearson, agnes, laurent garnier, philip jung ( m.a.n.d.y), agoria and many, many more... issue 002 by hans thalau enables moonpools true character even more to shine through. he deftly uses the important components for an organic deep house number, which leans toward the contemporary without losing respect for tradition

the long awaited trentemøller debut album - maybe one of the most anticipated independent albums of the year. trentemøller is one of the hottest artists on the electronic circuit - the man of the moment! a beautifully crafted, astonishing masterpiece, that will leave you breathless. the tracks form a story, almost like the soundtrack of a movie. it manages to capture a whole range of emotions in subtle melodic miniatures, dreamy ambiences, dusty beats, deep dub-tracks and driving groove-excursions. an ever-changing kaleidoscope of colours and moods, -the last resort- without a doubt contains trentemøllers best work to date. although its an electronic album, it also incorporates live-drums, guitars, bass and other acoustic instruments like celesta, glockenspiel, melodica and even dj scratching to create a more organic feel

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

its not hard to tell that barems been kicking back and enjoying the summer, soaking up the sunshine vibes and pouring new found inspiration into these three new tracks. the result is a breath-taking departure from his previous releases that demonstrates an unexpected mastery of the classic house sound. the first surprise is that each track stretches out to around the nine-minute mark with barem adopting a more patient, relaxed approach to his arrangements. the resulting laidback grooves - loopy, organic and sexy in turn - effortlessly seduce the crowd, marking a definite evolution in his sound and adding a welcome new string to his bow

includes remix by dennis ferrer and dj spinna!!!

big with: josh wink, gregor tresher, agnès, jimpster, djulz, alex attias, brothers vibe, sebo k, 2020vision, 3channels, lauhaus, davide squillace, nic fianculli,... simon flower, who since his first release on curl curl left his mark with productions on poker flat, moon harbour and recently railyard, now releases his second 12 on curl curl: still here, still there. while residing a world away on the idyllic isles of new zealand, here he makes a heavy nod to the detroit of the early 90s. he mixes it with his own deep hypnotic style, resulting in a release which sounds uncoventional yet combines the multi-layered repetition of an almost timeless techno style. the key to flowers unique sound is the influence from his well-honed and organic live set, which has lead to growing bookings across europe. both parts of still here, still there match funk and dancefloor pressure, and have been integrel to his live set for years.

his this years 2nd album >heavy day< still heavily resonates in peoples ears, now that falko brocksieper already delivers an appropriate follow-up. on >fresh 727< brocksieper finds back to raw, sketchy arrangements, evolving their full energy just from deep, rolling basic grooves, as opposed to the close examination of each tiny sound and every dramaturgic peculiarity in the recent longplayers production. on the title track >fresh 727< noisy, maurizio-esque house chords encounter futuristic vocal messages, while edgy, classic drumbox-riffs rip up the dense atmosphere of the track again and again. a deep, marching groove and the freeminded combination of elements signalize special club moments from the very start. on the backside >request< turns out to be an equally organic, sizzling counterpart, which can promote its sustainable cheerfulness alone by its ongoing bouncy bassline, in a way that all accessory parts get dispensable - to the benefit of a well-balanced blend of rattling percussion, carved vocals and quirky atmo...s

sexplosion, the new ep from lenfant terrible of sophisticated techno, seth troxler-here recording under his debauched alter ego sex trothler-is a complex, multifaceted, and yet decidedly horny affair. these are the sounds of doing unspeakable and anonymous things to girls in dark backrooms and being too confident to regret it the next day…the sounds of your favorite sexual memory transformed by your overactive fantasy life into scenes of utter perversion. the first track, jusyour, combines troxlers signature use of the classic, organic sounds of detroit house and techno with an avant-garde, fragmented, almost mournful sensibility. its a contemporary jack track as appropriate for a dark, seedy club as it is for an afterparty orgy on your friends broken futon. its almost as if music could yearn and sweat and think all at once. its followed by a brief vocal internude to remind you that being a good lover always means having enough of a sense of humor to laugh at other people laughing at yourself. think tinkertoys meets the wu-tang clans black shampoo. humor aside, the final track, face, utilizes airy percussion and deep, almost cinematic chords (reminiscent of troxlers remix for another precious youth, nicolaas jar on new yorks wolf+lamb label). its masterful and restrained use of processed vocals manages to leave behind so much of the pointless darkness that has plagued techno, whether minimal or otherwise. it builds slowly yet aggressively, like a hard, focused grind with someone you cant actually even really stand. this is music for people whose time at art school was spent getting naked and not hating themselves for it.

supported by dubfire, davide squillace, rino cerrone, mark henning, mihalis safras. naples based artist gianni pellecchia, well known for his releases on loose or minisketch, with his first solo ep on bauns music onda tape has a deep, liquid atmospheric feel. the lead bass rotor and the easy rhythmical line of muler creates a sonoric winding which culminates when a darkness laugh sample breaks off the pause to restart shaking heads. powerful! allergico is a well done example of drum embedding and sound de/construction. a funky techno bay with coloured melodic reefs! mnemonic has an excellent hypnotic minimal groovin tech style, organic beats meets mindsweeping melodies, and the dark laugh crosses the reef again. a pure dope for your escaping from chaos. thats onda tape!

the 3 jagged guys come from a different background, but they all love and live quality music for many years already! so the best time they have cooking things up in their studio – and as a result, it sounds like >hello kool nice<. analogue equipment plus the mpc, thats the sound of jagged and quintessentials 02: organic, raw and real! the remixes courtesy of colognes harry swinger & dc (rushhour) with an old school deephouse edit and man of the moment quarion (drumpoet community) with a great summerish uplifting rework are pure dope too. essential

played by loco dice, l.garnier, dixon, prins thomas... big remixes by daniel stefanik & jackmate outstanding release!! champagne or water – which one is more suitable for a small label jubilee? well, probably its best to celebrate such an event with a superb release. after the highly appreciated compilation >moon harbour inhouse vol. 2<, moon harbour throws in 12inch number 30 by its very own mario >marlow< weise. alongside label founder matthias tanzmann he has been part of the moon harbour family right from its start, having had two veritable hits during the last two years with >movin< and >quiet<, both together with singer dehlia/franziska grohmann. his new track >water< (b2) breathes fresh air into the almost forgotten genre of deep house. organic elements meet detailed sound work and subtle pop appeal. with singer claudia nehls at the mic, warm chords, handmade bass and a surprising guest appearance of the flute >water< is the perfect companion for the sweet melancholy of early summer days.... big re-release !!!

excellent organic deep groovin funk on this new label from france called >need light records<

while for many of his contemporaries repetition became a new standard rather than innovation, jacek sienkiewicz with every release seems to be broading his musical horizons and challenging new territories. beacon seems to be even more organic than previous recognition releases, and the warm, yet unstoppable beat workout suddenly goes all jazzy and cinematic, with irresistible saxophone hook. big surprise here, but jacek blends the sounds into one of his trademark, 12+ minutes long, massive club anthem. another surprise is brought by the flipside - this remix is courtesy of the man of the moment michel bauman, here applying his soulphiction alter ego to dark, smoky and very tropical variation on a familiar theme. all over, another very impressive release from jacek sienkiewicz, man who never fails to impress.

excellent hypnotic minimal groovin tech tracks, organic beats meets mindsweeping melodies... mastering at d&m

excellent & deep masterpiece!! one of the more interesting newcomers of 2007, we are delighted to welcome a new ep by october, his first for perspectiv. having turned heads with three singles on his own label caravan, octobers organic techno cuts and thuds, adding an inherent physicality to his productions. a side title track >say again< revolves around a female vocal loop, fuzzing and throbbing with pulsed melodic tone, punching live percussion and deep bass line. a highly unconventional mix, this composition ties together effortlessly, peaking with a deep and droning wave of analog synth and popped beats. b side >go outside< is an after hours treat. a darker, deeper and altogether more ethereal work, stuttering beats are glued together with a warm prodded synth melody. to close, resonant percussion and phased keys submerge the track into a claustrophobic climax.

hammered by samim, tobi neumann, dj t, d julz, laurent garnier,… big summer tune ! don t sleep…! summers here, and get physical are ready to greet it with a new 12 by christian kreuz, aka dakar – a breezy, organic, pop-tinged house track bolstered by remixes from gavin herlihy and lopazz

the 3rd release by scott grooves on his natural midi label, this is scotts first ever ep and color vinyl release. all 4 tracks possess a different mood and distinct raw edge, which plays well on this well balanced ep.track 1 dark blu speaks for itself, simply stated and deeply enriched. the relentless melody never lets go of the groove and the groove never lets go the melody. everything in this track harmonizes together perfectly.track 2 dna definitely disturbs the peace with vintage analog synth sounds. the old school sounding vocal sample echoes thruout the track that >detroit needs analog records< take a listen and decide if that echoes true!track 3 >it doesnt all have to be techy< as the title suggest there is know >techyness< here, its all about a deeply stormin groove that is enriched with warm melodic keys and a lovely guitar, yes i said guitar that altogether creates a feelin thats organic but not boring. track 4 decimalquivers in and out with a fm gritty synth stab, complete with minimal drums or as scott calls them >drims< which is the term scott uses for minimal drums. also present is a deep pad sound that brews slowly like an eruption. co-produced by panther, a name you will hear more about in the future

killer modern house from depths of deep space. adam marshalls original mix takes swinging chicago drums and paints them a dark black, while chord stabs morph and evolve in a tough, organic style on this 11-minute journey. mike shannons impressive re-working tightens everything up and funks the hell out of the groove with sizzling dry hats, sub-bass ruminations, and one serious breakdown. one of his best remixes yet by far. both are serious club killers

after the genre-smashing, seven vinyl pressings deep (and counting) success of viktor casanova, there is no way that the italoboyz could possibly top their first appearance on mothership, right? wrong! we are happy to report that they have created an organic techno masterpiece in >bahia<, enlisting the help of one of the greatest jazz musicians of our time - john coltrane. youve never heard the master like this - the italoboyz have molded the original >bahia< into a stomping peak timer as only they can. their trademark monster kick underpins stuttering jazz kits, a playful piano line, and an insistent, soulful tenor sax sample from the man himself (cleared after four months of intense negotiations). bahias intro leads into one of the most surprising and euphoric breaks you will ever hear. there are two versions to choose from - the party swing mix gets right to the point, grabbing you by the scruff of your neck. the flip sides mucho lungo mix is perfect for those late night warehouse moments, taking its time to deliver the sweet payoff

truffle music returns with andrew allsgood at the helm again. the up and coming producer and longtime toronto dj shows his promise once again with this slow grooving funk masterpiece that stretches over 7 minutes. the song travels through many sections and passes, carried the entire time by a driving dub bassline and vocal. for the lovers of deep, dubby and funky house and disco. nycs drrtyhaze (tirk, gomma) are commissioned on the remix and deliver the goods with an up tempo hypnotic stormer that sizzles with its surreal energy and simplicity. drrtyhaze use few elements from the original other than the vocal, taking it into deeper territory with a faster tempo and groove and much more electronic feel to the originals organic vibe.

by now dazzle drums and nite grooves are old friends. this being their 5th release on the label, the beat goes on and carries us with it. gypsyman turns out an organic bent out of shape (we didnt say warped!), percussive, almost dubby, instrumental delight. this is one of the definite moods one would hear at say, the shelter. its got that kind of clubby rhythmic organic vibe. call it what you will, we call it hot. tokyo deep that follows is a more upbeat instrumental full of synth moog sounds and overflowing washes. very car chase or early 80s stalk you cinema, catch the drama while you can!

sometimes, its still worth not to waste your youth with nonsense but to learn to play an instrument. like in the case of sebastian mullaert, who has learned to play violin, organ and piano, while his partner marcus henriksson rather came from kraftwerk and human league to electronic music. as son kite, the two swedes have already a well-known name in the psy-trance scene, and as minilogue, they now start to conquer the minimal and house world. with their rather unique sound, they manage the tightrope walk between minimal and trance and never allow us to put them into a drawer. especially with their debut on cocoon rec, minilogue present themselves in a different way, compared to their releases on traum or wagon repair. >jamaica< is a calm track at the first hearing and is perfect for building up a set. beginning with bird-like sounds, the track builds up slowly and quickly becomes very interesting and tricky, ramifies as organic as a climbing plant, and when the tribal sound emerges from the underground, this track has exactly what makes minilogue so special: organic matter and groovy sounds, worked into a minimal labyrinth with very much love for the details. all of that can also be found on the b side which seems to be more adequate for the morning hours, with its somehow spacey sound. with >jamaica<, mullaert and henriksson prove that they are floating on the very surface of the endless minimal ocean. and with their album >animals< being already in sight on cocoon recordings, one can be highly anxious of what is coming ahead, by minilogue and techno made in sweden

leopoldo rosas latest killester ep offers a warm, organic vibe in its fusion of electronic and acoustic sounds. in the new eps four tracks, the dublin based italian producer adopts a somewhat sparse and rough edged style thats dramatically different from the sleek polish that characterizes the output of many other producers. deep by design and funky at the same time, these four tracks dive into a analogue deep house pool of sound!!

jacek sienkiewicz presents another unbelievably complex experiments in beat programming and string arrangement. this time, polands top techno producer known for his storming live sets goes over the edge, stretching minimal techno formula far beyond its limits and comes up with two epic tracks of enormous proportions. >the one< starts immediately with a stainless steel kick, but what seems to be a digital techno groove soon develops into a cosmic fairytale, with layers after layers of strings, bells and unidentified, but strangely organic sounds, executed with breathtaking complexity and almost obsessive attention to every tiny detail. sounds and emotions embraced within its almost 10 minutes are enough to fill a couple of albums.
