* international smark* (translation: international taste) opens with an 8bit techno tinged waltz before quickly floating into dreamy synth chords and staccato guitar licks.

* people* on the flip explores an electro-disco aesthetic bouncing along into the night with a heavily pitch affected vocal and angular bassline that drives an incessant groove

the second jungle wonz release on trax, again with harry dennis gorgeous vocals, was sub-licensed to both new york label vendetta and breakout in the uk (both subsidiaries of a&m), with some fine remixes by former area resident justin strauss. -this was one of the first house songs i ever heard when i was like 14- recalls felix da housecat. -marshall jefferson has been a huge influence on all my basslines. people usually think that basslines come from 80 s pop bands but they came from marshall jefferson. marshall jefferson is probably the best house producer of all time for this period.-

amazing! straight up hypnotic bangers. original dorcas sound for the people. vinyl only.

super rhythm trax throws you a curveball with unreleased miami bass treats from legendary old skool crew cha-os aka jock d (cut it up def) and lon alonzo (dynamix ii) and the uks finest, bass junkie (breakin) & dexorcist (control tower) aka bassing guild. the 12 inch includes a brand new version of the 1990 classic, *this is too much bass* as well as a new collaboration between the two and an exclusive straight up electro banger in *b-boyonik*. this one is limited and strictly for the bass heads among you.

two pieces of snarling filter house from nyc heavyweights robbie busch aka dj mcboing boing - record dealer to the stars, digger extraordinaire, & dj of sweaty underground parties around the world, and josh dunn - one part of the sorely missed 100 limousines, and one third of the holy trinity that put on new york s legendary foreal people party. for two guys so deeply immersed in the rich history of urban dance music, from the blues & gospel through deep disco, soul, chicago and detroit sounds, you could be forgiven for expecting to hear a rich homage to the sounds of the past. instead we get the future ghost of ron hardy playing the record backwards on a janky turntable with a quarter for a counterweight and fucking shit up in every conceivable way. these two are chiefly concerned with moving things forward, having some fun, and taking no prisoners along the way. golf channel every time !

the people behind the amazing mareh festival in brasil (the southern hemisphere s answer to electric elephant), drop yet more top drawer music as their label journey continues to gain strength. set in the lush settings of bahia where day blends into night and sun into moon, mareh continues to attract some first class artists from around the world to release on their imprint. the second release kicks off with glasgow based production wizard the revenge letting loose a late night groove that takes a blissful string sample and then works it for the dance floor. it s top stuff from the man with the roaring grooves. and rumours have it that the revenge himself will be headlining at this year s legendary nye event in bahia alongside tim sweeney, pete herbert & dicky trisco. next up is berlin based disco and house aficionado eddie c who drops an uber cool, cut up disco chugger that is likely to work your sunset and early morning sets to the max. mareh favourite pete herbert then steps up to the controls and delivers an upbeat, balearic dance floor banger that hits all the right notes and then hits them again. you can almost smell the hierbas on this one! last but not least, tokyo based englishman max essa delivers an electronic ode to late night dancing and early morning dips as he joins the dots between the tokyo underground and the fresh bahian surf. wonderful stuff. so mareh really are out to pull in a truly global sound to their label outing with glasgow, berlin, london, ibiza and tokyo all represented as well as their spiritual homelands sao paulo, and of course the place where it all happens each new year... bahia.

after big success of the first classic series by k alexi shelby, technorama is back with another great package. we started the classic series featuring tracks that we love, bought, played out and which we have the feeling more people should know about them. for this second, it is a great honor for us to welcome such a living legend, a pioneer from the detroit house scene terrence parker and the chicago veteran ellery cowles. this project includes two secrets cuts and timeless moments of detroit house & chicago techno.
on a side: *welcome to southfield*, a massive and very demand house instrumental track from terrence parker. released in 1997 on studio k7! records and issue from his *detroit after dark* lp.
on b side: *madball*, previously released in 1998 on dafunk! records, our favorite secret weapons, a real masterpiece of chicago jackin techno by ellery cowles (black nation, djax up beats, synewave).

a: christopher rau_people see: dérive is de retour! and time always waits for this man: christopher rau, dérive’s infamous impresario who offers you a delightful floating track on the a-side, its tricky and nonetheless very danceable rythmn should encounter you on the dancefloors in a spring-like mood. b: christopher rau_sekt é ron: on the back-side christopher shows his other musical side: dark, tripping, meditating. but what does the title mean? probably he doesn’t know either. however, its cryptic style fits the inscrutable shape of the track. well, you’ll hear from us at the latest next year again – approximately! – according to the gentle beat of dérive …

tension has the goal to reach the maximum level of sonic enlightenment of the sound. the most important thing of all is the sound, not the words, not the background, and nor even the people. tension is the former project of one single man named emmanuel. (100101 / start of heading).

here are some plain and simple cuts by yours truly credit 00 that push just the right buttons to make people move. the tracks were made exclusively for his live set but they are too good to keep them back. without superfluous frills these four bangers scream party in every note but as usual with credit 00 theres also a melancholic side somewhere behind those tricky beats. house is a feeling!

yoruba records is happy to release this dance floor ready ep by label head osunlade. stretching across a range of styles theres something for everyone in this release, an absolute must for every djs bag. the ep opens up with the title track, what pho. a relaxing jam driven by a powerful sounding grand piano and complimented by shakers, the added backing percussion and subtle bird chirps lend well to the creation of this tracks rainforest-esque mystique. next up is the deep, almost jazzy track – jus anuda groove. the rolling bass line and four to the floor beat will get you moving – and keep you there - as osunlade reminds us that this is just another groove. opening up the b-side is schavanna, a funky, guitar-driven track whose pulsating bass line and friendly but muffled vocals will keep people moving on the floor. finally, the ep closes with the waiting game, a hypnotic, tribal-learning track with a foot-stomping beat, colored with the seductive vocals of rainy payne, its hard to tell which is more captivating, the groove itself or the story line she unfolds.

belgian label with focus on the deeper flavors of house music from already established artists and new upcoming talent.

every week end im going to concrete to listen the artists who are playing there. i m talking about music with them , and do the same with people sharing the dancefloor with me. i collect all these inputs and ideas, all this energy, to define what concrete music dna is. because of this variety of people, tastes, and point of views, the label can t be reduced to one and only genre. to make the music more easy to apprehend, we are splitting the label in 3 parts, 3 differents moods, or more precisely, 3 times of the day... concrete music 7am contains the kind of music you could easily listen in our club at dawn, when the light is blue and the sun starts to filter through the mi-closed shutters. minimalistic, freaky or mellow, but always deep. concrete 3pm is definetly turned to house music. 3pm is the time when smiles are on every face, when the same vibe, the same energy, is going through every stomach in the room, and the crowd becomes one same entity. concrete music 4am aims for the more techno and black side of the music we love. at 4am, fists are pumping the air, or heads are down and eyes closed. it s not about how hard or fast the kickdrum beats, but how thick the atmosphere is.

more late 70s westcoast yachtpop you can almost dance to. delivered on heavyweight 180 gram double vinyl in gatefold sleeve

concept record alert! fairlights by fort romeau is a tribute to the - technically minded readers might raise an eyebrow - australian computer musical instrument that people like peter gabriel, herbie hancock or kate bush fell in love with during the late 1970s/early 1980s. anyways, if fort romeaus current album is like painting with oil, fairlights is like drawing with permanent marker- to quote the man himself. all based on the word saku, you will experience an epic journey evolving around heart-breaking dance-floor romanticism, jaw-breaking beat exercises, life-affirming ambient digressions, and a general feeling of spring fever.

here one of his big hitters let me go feat. elif biçer gets remixed by deep house legend fred p, as well as leo cubanero and deadbeat. new york s soul people boss and underground talent fred p goes rst and unsurprisingly his track is spiritual and way below the surface, with emotive female vocal coos and skipping drums all laced up in mesmerising and soulful pads. then comes leo cubanero, who has been producing on label like festplatten and nachtfrequent since 2003, and he ips the track into a liquid tech house affair with libidinous vocals and freaky synths and pads that add as spooky air to proceedings. lastly, montrealer deadbeat lays down a sublime minimal dub remix that is gooey and lazy, elastic and seductive in all the right ways, especially when the sexy vocal comes in

nozinja fusioniert traditionelle folklore, tsonga-disco, kwaito und südafrikanischen house zu einem innovativen, afrofuturistischen ravesound, der mit einer revolutionären tanzbewegung namens shangaan electro einhergeht. sein debütalbum -nozinja lodge-, gesegnet mit einem einzigartigen soul, atmet den geist der shangaan people, ihre sprache und musikgeschichte. es ist ein belebender ausdruck zukunftsgewandter dancemusik, mit dem sich nozinja an vorderster front der visionäre der digitalen diaspora des 21. jahrhunderts rund um unseren planeten einreiht

as the sun rises a little higher in the sky, above machine emerge from their winter hibernation with the first fruits of their impeccably assembled new release schedule. jonny nash takes on jose manuel s summer wind and, much like the superb melody as truth releases he s penned, sets out a widescreen canvas of tone and melody, as piano and vocal punctuate the sonic plain. twisted tongue take on maricopa s recently unveilied we could maybe feat. nicola kramer. and the result sounds like loose ends operating as in-house band at a speakeasy orbiting a distant nebula the b side has seconds another day beautifully reconfigured for sunrise moments by slo, while b2 has an original slo moment bombora which, much like it s namesake is a gentle balearic breaker washing over the sonic reef... bona fide bottled sunshine people - above machine are back !

eddy romero & frink were digging in the rock formations beneath earth s crust and have quarried a track which was forged into the newest schallbox-vinyl straight by the pressure of the continental plates! schallbox018 is an expedition through a scarcely lit tunnel, down into a mysterious and cryptic underworld. the tracks pull fiction and element unfold a maelstrom that takes us ever deeper down into a dark abyss. pull fiction in m.ins remix version is a percussive club monster that gives over to sparsely flickering lights revealing the way onwards, while the mystical voices in steve cole & ronald christophs remix of element take us back into the daylight again.

the tracks here are in the brutalist machine house vein and the source material for * we come together* (by mazi as asp and john griffin as awoke) will be familiar to devotees of roots chicago house. the brodanse brothers * sleep won t come* is remixed by audio soul project and awoke. chicago based multi-instrumentalist jonn wallen contributes the dense * aesthete* under pseudonym *by gordon gartrelle*. * we get together* is a tribute to the 90s house that inspired us to start making music years ago. people reminisce about how things used to be better, but you must breath in the present. we keep with us those hallowed bones but let pain and suffering fade into the mist. we let memories fade in the depths of our neural web so as not to be paralyzed by the burden of sentiment. we forget to stay sane.

it was very important for me to give a dub-ish colour to this ep and propose something different than what people already know from me.‘pressure feed’ is a tribute to all maurizio’s tracks which i never get bored listening or playing. regarding ‘water flood’, i wanted to produce something simple that stands far from the traditional 4/4 beat. i wanted to make it a break beat on the kick while bringing refined ambiance and atmospheric patches to it. finally, ‘cold atom’ is the result of a permanent rhythmic evolution that embodies the vision i have of an astral trip, both dub and intense.- yakine
