nemanja nikolic was born in belgrade, serbia. a couple of years ago, he decided to move to sydney for the purpose of audio production studies. rejection and a new world are nemanjas vision of dub techno, evolving pads, reverbs, space and delays. highway of thoughts and the voice of my youth are an attempt of experimental, darker, minimal tracks with lots of sfx, samples from the real world and live instruments. delta funktionen (ann aimee, delsin) appears for the first time on dpress and delivers a top remix of >a new world< that finds its place near the solid techno sound of sandwell district, etiku, ostgut ton.

as a fellow ostgut ton recording artist and berghain regular, the connections between berlins marcel fengler and luke slater go beyond the usual mutual respect between artists. this is berghaininspired music at its best for which fengler is known!

big record alert! great full length e.p by the third side, the infamous berlin based team formed by panorama bar resident steffi (ostgut ton/klakson), marieu (restoration/sabotage) and lucretio (restoration/mixworks/deepmoves).
>nyx< is an invocation to the primordial goddess of the night summoned with soul and machines, nyx, rather than chaos, is the first principle.
all tracks are recorded live on dusky tape with no computer involved.

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

one of the most in demand tracks from the >technique< album finally gets a full single release complete with re-fixes from prosumer and kruse & nuernberg. ernestos vocal fully lends itself to the prosumer soundsignature, his mix floats and weaves around ernestos vocal, peaking around his own chords before stripping things back to bare essentials and rebuilding like only he can. the kruse& nuernberg mix is hypnotic, percussive old school house music at its best. they take a small snippet of the vocal and build the groove relentlessly until the whole room is shaking. achim brandenburg aka prosumer lives in berlin where he is resident at panorama bar, weaving together the finest blend of soulful house sounds. an expert in classic chicago house and detroit techno, his first release was in 2004 on 240 volts, followed by playhouse and ostgut, where he released his debut album with murat tepeli in 2008. separately, hamburg based florian kruse & nils nûrnberg have created some of the most interesting deep house around in the past few years, with early highlights incl nils >caught a glimpse< on 8bit, and florians >love hurts< release on om records. since then, as solo producers, but more importantly together as kruse & nûrnberg they have climbed closer to the tree-top with their unique brand of mouth-watering underground house.

ladies and gentlemen, bpitch aficionados and disco fans in particular - please give a warm welcome to dance disorder! dance disorder, commonly known as georgina fenandes (and also as baby g), gets her first release on bpitch - and for good reason: having already notched up a hit with >my time< on eskimo recordings, she has been right at the top of ellen alliens personal wishlist.
dance disorders bpitch debut >zusammen< is a 10-minute marvel of epic breath, and yet remains admirably unpretetious, falling neatly into the mould of the best minimal-ethereal techno classics of the early 90s. the vocals are contributed by berlin ostgut resident dj boris. the original and instrumental versions of this 12 inch vinyl are bound to create moments of ecstatic pleasure on every after-hour dancefloor.

the waiting is finally over! after all the ups and downs of the past year, we can happily report that joshua eustis now firmly intends to continue telefon tel aviv as a solo project. in order to mark his decision with a bang, thewonderful title track >immolate yourself< is being released as the second single from the current lp. the song has been entrusted to highly acclaimed and diverse remix artists who have skilfully stripped down the epic album track to more club-friendly formats.
the a side is delivered by label-mate thomas muller, whose finely detailed techno soundscapes can now be enjoyed on five bpc 12 inch releases. his >immolate< remix takes a much more direct approach. he reduces the lush arrangement of the original to a powerful basic framework, leaves out the vocals almost entirely, and creates a surprise when the track crumbles into sonic chaos towards the end.
miss fitz aka maayan nidam has had singles released on labels including raum musik and freak n chic, and these have been remixed by renowned artists such as ricardo villalobos. her version of >immolate< also makes a clear break from the album track and serves up her very own brand of abstract, dancefloor-friendly house. once again, all the opulence of the original is thrown overboard, a dry beat is placed at the centre of the arrangement and enriched with sinuous vocals.
ben klock needs no further introduction - he is the epitome of the bleak, hard minimal sound. his album >one< is currently available on ostgut ton, and as a remixer he has earned the highest acclaim for his version of depeche modes >peace<. bens >jack mix< is fittingly titled and lives up to all the expectations of the name. the track is stripped back to a resounding, hammer-like beat framework - minimised for maximum effect.
bpitch legend sascha funke delivers a surprise with another astoundingly reduced remix, at least by his standards. he turns away from the melodic richness of his current album >mango< in favour of repetitive fragments and an extended arc of tension which will surely make his >immolate< remix a massive after-hour hit.

one of 2009s most talked about newcomers, tony lionni steps up to bat as we drop figure spc e. having alreadysupplied the huge >found a place< for len fakis ostgut ton >berghain 03< mix, fakis figure imprint now keeps thefire burning with two more exclusive lionni recordings.
with its epic, up-building vibe and classically influenced detroitian synth hooks, >skys the limit< treads the linewonderfully between intense peak time action and hypnotic early morning wonderment. immense, room filling, expertly produced and dripping with class, its indeed worthy of the title and continues to elevate tonys status asone of todays most promising producers.

with releases on labels like ostgut, time 2 express and prologue, the finnish producer is one of the leading lights in the new wave of european techno. samuli gets straight down to business on orbiter. based on chugging, insistent drums, the listener is led to a place where repetitive droning sounds, pitched up percussion and robotic bleeps dominate. if ever there was a soundtrack lose your mind to in a dark room, then >orbiter< is it. >metal space< is more considered, but its no less effective. berlin producer mike dehnert rounds off the ep with an excellent, deeply textured take on >metal space<.

restoration records highly awaited eighth release is the most powerful sonic weapon to face up this hard times. captain power and the soldiers of the future will lead the riot of the machines in order to restore the analogue kingdom. humans and machines, blood and fire, souls and transistors are operating together to fight the conformism and the loss of values imposed by the mass communication of this post-industrial era.
third side is the new operative group of restoration, formed by marieu, lucretio and by resident dj of panorama bar steffi (klakson/ostgut ton). >ready to dance< is a dancefloor disco-bomb, funky and sexy but minimalistic at the same time. very essential in its build-up, its bass line is addicting and relentless and its bass drum is powerful. we are ready to dance, its time to jack!
analogue cops >chamber< is a strong dark track in which a massive 808 drum explosion runs together with an ultra-pitched down voice sample. rushing percussions, piercy hi-hats, a breathless progression. an experiment which turns into a solid club tack.
on side b, >still me< represents lucretios vocation to neoclassicism. the time disappears and a gospel organ full of motown reminiscences reminds the most soulful works appeared on planet earth. dramatic and sweet, its evocative and hopeful. lucretios track on rst006 appears on tama sumos >panorama bar – mix cd<.
>mauzy< is marieus deepest track on restoration. beat-down smashing 909 drums, punchy snares, delightful piano chords, sharp cymbals, a praising voice. a track for a spiritual elevation, a track to dance until the last second. a track to listen to a million of times.

heading the charge on this remix package is ostgut ton beefcake marcel dettmann and martyn, whose frequently stunning blend of garage, house and dubstep should require no introduction - not if youve heard his great lengths lp, or his recent 10s on curle and aus music. fever ray, who if you werent already aware, is karin andersson from the knife

following the great international success of glitterbugs album >supershelter<, everyone has been curious to hear what this unique and unmatched producer will bring us next. and truth is, there is a lot! glitterbug has been working on piles of new enchanting materials, tracks, projects and remixes.
as a first release in a series that will lead to his next (double cd) album, is the >dim flares ep<: a dream-like, intense and deep moody ep that carries that very special glitterbug sound to a whole new level, touching on deep emotional techno with a utopian 4/4 perspective.
this beautiful ep opens with >so much more>, an epic track that releases its melancholic-euphoric mood slowly over the course of 9 minutes, turning itself into a beautiful, hopeful, hand-raising screamer that floods the dance floor with overwhelming warmth and heartfelt love. side a ends with >deadpan<, an intense dark ambient miniature that lets us peak at glitterbugs world of score-like ambient compositions.
the b-side begins with >daubed beams<, a deephouse track all glitterbug. >daubed beams< feels like what mid 90s detroit techno released on warp would have sounded like: unbelievably deep, pensive, warm, divine and pumping.
c.sides latest emotive ep culminates with >be content<, a warm track with a deep drive of warped pads, a dark bass-line, airy percussion and unforgettable arpeggios. this exhilarating dance track is layered with bottomless emotions, the kind you want to close your eyes to, hug the person dancing next to you and wish it would never ever end.
the >dim flares ep< is the first in a series of 3 magnificently moving eps (by glitterbug, christian löffler, and a collaboration between glitterbug & ostgut ton s murat tepeli) to be released on the c.sides label in 2009-2010, all leading up to glitterbugs extraordinary next double album which is currently in the making and will be released in spring 2010.

go hiyama has risen quickly to a position of international respect that few japanese techno producers can match. from his debut release on james ruskins coda label to his recent surgeon remixed single geometrical he has attracted continuous support from oscar mulero, james ruskin, surgeon, gayle san and many other djs at the cutting edge of techno. his sound is powerful but with an intricacy and ear to detail that shames most of the loop techno from a few years ago. for his first perc trax release he delivers 2 slices of powerful, detailed modern techno that follow on perfectly from geometrical. for the b-side remix perc trax is proud to have a deep dub techno mix from norman nodge. norman is resident at berlins infamous berghain club and the only producer apart from marcel dettmann to record for marcels own mdr imprint. norman has also just released the well-received track native rhythm electric on ostgut ton, which also featured on dettmanns recent berghain 02 mix album. as a dj, norman moved to his berghain residency after organising parties in easy germany, now as his production career flourishes he is starting to make his mark on the international circuit. this is normans first release on a non-german label and is a real coup for perc trax

after more than three years of silence as a producer, efdemin a.k.a phillip sollmann returns with a striking hybrid concept that merges the album format with the -continuous dj mix- format, presenting completely new material in a seamless manner. this cd-mix, named na•f, officially reinstates his label of the same name and is a sprawling tour of inner space featuring 19 distinct tracks from fellow producers (e.g. margaret dygas, steve bicknell, jeroen search, pom pom, marco shuttle or gunnar haslam) along with an additional ten that feature efdemin himself (either as soloist or collaborator). the release condenses his decade-long dj-ing journey and evolution as a producer into a single potent elixir of contemporary techno. owing to his additional projects, such as collaborating with pan artist konrad sprenger on a modular organ system to be installed in museums, or scoring for a neue musik ensemble, the berlin-based efdemin is known as hiker between the worlds . his regular stints at berghain or panoramabar, his partnership with established labels (e.g. ostgut ton, dial, sushitech) and the leadership of his own na•f imprint all demonstrate that since more than a decade.
