moleculez returns to meta4 ready to clear dancefloors with some of his most destructive material to date. you know you are dealing with some serious dance music when none of the tracks on a release have vocal samples. the opening track, future in progress, is blessed with a wonderfully deep kickdrum that would probably even sound good at plus20, although we havent tried that yet. out of a nowhere the track suddenly seems to have stopped when an eerie melody creeps out of the dark. this sets the tone for the rest of the release: dark, driving and threatening. gargoyle is the most driving. lava bomb the eeriest: and future in progress the most threatening. thats what we think, anyway. you decide. the last two tracks on this release are probotector and the haunted. the first is actual textbook honest to goodness industrial hardcore while the latter isnt really anything we can talk about here. highly recommended because we want to sell records

demetrio giannice is an italian swiss living in zurich & very active in the underground house scene. he recently released on his own enterbt records label (enterbt means disinherited in german), and soon to be released on drumpoet. third ear recordings have had this ep for more than a year. we ve been itching to get these deep house jams out there ever since we got them, and now here they are.

as house continues to take its stronghold over techno, even in berlin the epicentre of all things minimal, we gear up for a summer of ‘actual’ dancing over regimented arm pumping and head nodding. having impressed laurent garnier, m.a.n.dy, solumun, karotte, tg (tim green) and ellen alien last year with his collaboration with enzo elia, martin patiño caught the attention of true to form with his fresh, playful approach to house and techno and hypnotic percussive elements .born in italy, but with south american roots and now living in berlin, you can hear vibrant audio recollections seeping onto every groove. citing dali’s surrealist paintings as another creative reference (a nod to which is contained in the track title ‘the tempation’), you could say martin draws on the atypical compared to your average electronic producer.the result is the blissful simplicity of ‘sundays’ on the a side, percussive, sundrenched and a perfect am terrace lifter.on the flip side is peak time tech house groover ‘the temptation’ and a hypnotic, dub heavy remix of black dahlia (the original of which will appear on the digital only release) produced with long term cohort enzo elia. true to form, now in its 5th year, showcases tracks and remixes from such respected producers as pan pot, gavin herlihy, jesse rose, samim, pascal foes, mikael weil, justin maxwell, claude von stroke, subjekt, tom ellis, leif and more

the second release on the cologne-based techno label 200 comes from our friend jean-vince luccini, who has released on well-renowned labels such as treibstoff, dumb unit, trapez, curle, roman photo and sinergy.
his breaking down remix is inspired by the original track >breaking down< by raphael sage and relatif yann - our favourite summer tune! billie jean vince is a dark flitting techno monster, the circular limit is a hypnotic groove tune.

legendary sub club resident harri, teams up with fellow glaswegians and justifiably hyped producers the revenge to cook up this stripped back and relentless raw house joint. already a massive cut for a select few djs serviced well upfront, this track has cropped up on more than a few most wanted lists. its thundering main hook driven along with fierce percussion and a simmering tension that seems set to boil over never fails. the dub mix swaps the ferocious claps for a haunting bell tone, paving the way for a tripped out excursion 20.000 leagues under. vera completes the 12inch with her hypnotising tribal groove punctuated with rising synths that offers a lighter, brighter take on the original.

summer is coming back, and one of last years summer hit artists (last year with down down down...no tone) is back with another housedance hit including a massive slin project remix!!

slang bang is benno blome, the head of sender, and pan/tone aka sid le rock. the duo delivers powerful tracks combining force and restraint with a wicked imagination. >amaaazing< for example sets the records tone with an aura of mystery, creeping like a secret agent on muted, methodical beats, as buzzing synths and foggy atmospheres round out the film noir effect

phat groovin remixes by pan pot (mobilee) and goldwill (was not was)

now is the time for brendom moeller aka beat pharmacy (deep space) to join the remixers roster of this very promising but underground label co-run by tony blunt and ivan murias. blunt and beat pharmacy, a firm joint venture ready to manufacture high tone detroit and dub techno music

reaky is one of the most succesful techno artists of 2008! with big hits on labels like yin yang he set the tone and now 2009 promises to be a big year for the man. his style his uplifting and funky with hard rocking beats. the odessa soundfreaks suprised us with very good releases on labels like techhead last year and now strike on special series with 2 tunes that are both hard raving tunes with solid technobeats. a deadly combo on the always succesful patterns offshoot special series!

on the a-side , >brunhilde< the old bitch welcomes us, again completely drunken and swinging to rhythm with her frying pan. the second track is >hip hop chopsui< - a meal which can satiate 500 dance hungry hip swinging ravers without a problem. if you still dont have enough you turn around the record. for here >master mason< shows us, that b-sides can also display their cold-blooded lethal potential. should anyone against your expctation still sit at the bar, nip on his drink uninvolvedly and flirt with the barkeeper, >parcel< will finally make this grumbler let his bar stool stand there and mix into the dance willing crowd.

for its 8th installment, the funk mundial series temporarily moves to buenos aires, argentinia to present what is quite possibly the first ever baile funk cumbia record to be released. yes, we re talking about a world premiere here: the two music styles that recently put south america on the dj radar again, are melting together in funk mundial #8: baile funk meets cumbia.for this volume, four of the hottest producers of buenos aires digi-cumbia label zzk teamed up with various baile funk mcs from rio de janeiro. zzk is to cumbia what man recordings is to baile funk û mixing up one raw, regional music style with the best of various genres to create a unique new sound. founded as a label in 2008, zzk broke internationally with their mixtapes, in which cumbia û the traditional pan-latin-american dancehall sound û was mixed up with reggaeton, hip hop and various forms of bass music. recently, the label released its first compilation and full artist albums.

finally four brand new tracks, in pure classic cheers party style. two with a deep electro feeling, the kind we like over here in paris, rough and simple, with a dark tone and strong percussions. check especially the frame, a very special abstract track that you may enjoy right from the first listening. the cheers theme and night on earth are more in the old school garage vein (a sound that really comes back on the dancefloors those days), happy, melodic, uplifting, this is pure cheers party heaven! dedicated to all the cheers addicts!

following up his well-received works for statik entertainment, dublins leonid proudly lands at sistrum with three new tracks, crafted in his signature style of mature, classic depth. on the first track >sadim< a gorgeous bassline leads the way into gentle percussion and warm strings, as slightly acidic synth stabs take you back to the simpler days of dance. honest, unpretentious and deep. classic vibrations abound on the following cut >potsandpans<. the bassline sets the tone as sonic layers slowly build into a timeless groove that could easily go on forever. a beauty, by any standard. the ep closes with >shortwave<, a low-slung, shuffling groove, >shortwave< bumps along with the help of a round analog bassline and sharp claps, as shimmering chords swirl hypnotically. this one is destined to define many a late-night dancefloor moment

venezuelan producer argenis brito graces us with his sophomore cadenza release, the imminent ep. renowned for his role as lead vocalist for senor coconut as well as his collaborative projects with artists as decorated as luciano, pier bucci, jay haze and samim, the multi-talented argenis solo work comes with some pedigree. resident in berlin since 2004, his distinctly latin interpretation of house is a step ahead of the game, with prior releases on junion and cadenza animating floors with that inimitable south american fervour. title track >imminent< is a playful affair,with bouncing bass and a shimmering synth melody dancing around the kick. intoxicating and funked up, the melodies call and respond in a fragmented conversation while pulsing echoed tones add depth to the mix. >mind body soul< stutters into a complex percussive pattern, coloured by warm keys and blocks of bass tone. funky is the word, as a distorted vocal directs bodies to the floor. deep and immersive, dark melodic synth movements plunge us into a sweaty and cathartic house hole. on the flip, >lolipop< combines electro and house elements into one cheeky dance with the devil. bubbling bass flows under cascading melodic synth, as fat percussion crunches around sharp vocal bursts. slick and futuristic, this is for that time of the night where looking backwards is not an option.closing the ep, >unreality< is as deep as they come. warm and uncompromising key stabs pulsate over a no-nonsense bass drive, accented by harmonising clav tones. living up to its moniker, the resonant melodies and hypnotic pace conspire to transcendental effect.

an ep the compliments the finer house elements, each cut displaying separate elements that serves it up for house essential mix grooves. a1, state and griswold is funky with a jazzy vibe that expresses a smooth vibe that’s complimented with soul. the elements pair up for a jamming instrumental accented with detroit style keys, kris wadsworth shows his home-style techniques with class for >state and griswold<. b1, keep pushin track, turns out with a squared bass line, coupled with the chords, and some fx that walks this cut to a swingy deep house groove. b2, keep pushin remix by chris carrier hits with a quick released thick beat, that pumps the original jam into a smooth tone of deep chords that slowly warp out with a kind dissonance towards the break down. programmed tracky, the original is pushy enough to keep the floor consistently on the move

berlin-based belgian producers sierra sam & marcus vector present the debut release of d.i.y. (dumb irresponsible youth), their new house-oriented project. sierra sam (toysforboys, einmaleins, trapez) and marcus vector (toysforboys, nomor, playground) recently released their first joint effort for contexterrior. working together once again, this time around theyve put aside their usual dark techno inclinations, opting instead for uninhibited house led by analog percussion sounds. drumroll, please… >pimp my saw< is a frenzy layers and layers of toms, kicks, steeldrums and clicks. >screw it up< is a more melodic affair, with the classic build-up and tension that defines classic house material, plus a hint of latino finesse. on the flip, >hammer of love< closes things out with a shuffly balance between the organic and the artificial, with looming atmospheric ambience to set a darker tone. these three tracks are the perfect tools to use where the sun dont shine. (that would be the nightclub, you pervert!)

limited to 500 copies, coloured vinyl !! one of detroits most respected names, mike huckaby serves up a floor burning epic with his s y n t h mix. it opens up with killer shards of metallic chords, coloured in deep analogue emotion until the last second when a kick nearly explodes and drops low end so sinister your heart may skip a beat. this well crafted array of tone could only come from mikes expert use of the legendary waldorf wave synthesizer, with his timeless rendition of juans classic this is destined to be legendary. after the smoke clears were transported into ambient territory with intrusions lengthy 18 minute ambient voyage. the textures fade into pantone colours before opening up into a silvery lo-fi sonic palette, a sort of slow motion metamorphosis you could only compare to the works of thomas köner or wolfgang voigts, gas project. this is love in lo-fi

synthed out disco meets fela in a steel pan dancefloor riot

part of a new breed of detroit techno, we are delighted to announce ryan crossons debut wagon repair ep. having already released on trapez, telegraph and m_nus under his alias berg nixon, ryans floor friendly live sets and shuffled percussive styles are getting many excited, with due cause. a side ‘confiteria del molino is a bassy and deep bomb. introducing itself with eerie warped vocals and strutting beats, dynamic melodic tones hover above a subtle synth progression. enlivened by stabbed horn samples, percussion and booming bass is key to this tracks heavyweight strength. b1 ‘sunshine wave is slightly lighter, opening with a bouncing melody and chattering percussion. a huge bass sound opens things up, accented by needling synth and fueled by a classic prodding techno kick. to close, ‘use me up bubbles with melodic tone and stuttering crackled samples. subtly progressing to a simple beat and rumbling bass, distorted vocal arrangements haunt the mix as flighty pads howl in the distance

its house but not as we know it! young david, aka dave young, chose his artist name as a reminder of what it said on his office door before he took some time out in the summer of 2006. swapping the office for what an estate agent might describe as a cosy basement studio in stockholm, he now sits around making beats all day the fuji ep is musical adventure. bridging the gap between soulful and minimal and blending crunchy mid-tempo party beats with intoxicating two-tone, jazz and dub flavours. equally at home on the dance floor, ipod or lounge stereo, the tracks have a sense of space and depth and, above all, a real musicality which comes not (only) from the pushing of a few buttons, but from a lifelong quest

!!!!!!strictly limited to 500 copies!!!!!! together with stefan goldmanns debut cd the transitory state, macro releases a strictly limited box set containing five 7? records holding the electroacoustic album voices of the dead. with his releases for innervisions, perlon and macro stefan goldmann has been a key figure at the cutting edge of post minimal techno and the renewal of house music. this album is a distinctively different affair though, reaching far beyond the scope of dancefloor electronics. starting a trilogy of concept albums, stefan goldmann searches for the common root of all music in an electroacoustic setting. from this album turret is already renowned as the intro sequence of richie hawtins groundbreaking de9 transitions mix compilation and was also commissioned by the biblioteque nationale de france for the imeb phonoteque public collection. the artist explains: at first sight we recognise upfront elements like a melody or rhythmic pattern, which we associate with a certain piece or style of music, but there is tension between two notes, hard-to-define background information that at a closer look is found everywhere - within the music of coltrane and stravinsky, death metal and 9th century byzantine chants. if there is anything like a total, secret common ground, than its this information lurking in the background. these are the voices of the dead, the heritage of an endless line of ancestors brought forward through the centuries. i tried to make these elements audible as clearly as possible. really like this weird space ambient one. ive put katorga and izo already into my final scratch computer and have been playing them! (richie hawtin on voices of the dead) record release event at berghain / panorama bar berlin on september 4th, 2008, feat. ricardo villalobos, mika vainio (pan sonic) and ulrich schnauss (tbc).

music was my first love... and it could be my last! pretty much looks like whats to be said judging by the increasing productivity of famous parisian the 5 beats sessions host over the last years, with the launch of real tone records new sublabel fr prod where is to be found this firing 2 tracker. definitely for the house headz in search of straight in yer face sensations, both the components of this ep are the perfect illustrations of an ongoing movement fusing the countless elements which have made the contemporary groove what it is since the arrival of the electronic kraut and disco in the mid 70s.
