embryonic ep by columbus, oh artist titonton is brought back to the forefront exactly 20 years after its original release on metamorphic recordings. 4 tracks of that warm and deep midwest techno like nobody else can do it. titonton s totally unique style has definitely withstood the test of time, and like most music created independently of trends it will always sound fresh. we re living in the times that this music was created for and later on down the road when space djs play these cuts from the orbital terrace, it will be for their times too. out of print since the initial pressing it has now been remastered from the original studio tapes for optimum sound quality.

the dance is the result of a long lasting musical love affair between kontra-musik s ulf eriksson and sebastian mullaert (aka minilogue). as most love affairs, it started off as an exciting experiment: ulf would play records and sebastian would bring out his music gear and play a live set. as they were touring with this live concept, their sounds started to really integrate, and after one especially fine night at trouw, amsterdam, ulf and sebastian decided it was time to conceive the dance. once the decision was taken, everything else came naturally. the dance was to be recorded live, in one take, at kontra-musik s home field inkonst, malmo, sweden.

the ethos of m.i.l has always been to play the role of adventurer, to push forward the sounds that veer away from the main label music is love and m2222 pushes the envelope to the furthest boundary so far. kastil steps up for the 5th release on the vinyl only label with a divine techno ep. etrek kicks off the proceedings with a kick drum solid enough to shake the bones of anyone in 100 meters of it. with its eerie analogue blips and noises the atmosphere this track emits is so intriguing you yearn for all its beautifully produced twists and turns. the main riff played against the surging drum section will make this track a timeless tool for techno & house djs alike.

the bush is a homage to the place where i have lived for the last decade (askew road). the askew road itself is slowly changing so i wanted to document all the places that play a big part in mine and my families lives before they eventually get sold for more flats or tescos. first up was peckings studio 1 record shop, which has been on this stretch of road since the 1960s. next up is the mighty sun pub which became a local talking point when they sold the place because a sign sat in the window that announced this bup is close.

we were very excited indeed to see the third release from the quite promising love notes from brooklyn imprint! marco zenin was a featured artist on the last release under his dj octopus guise, and this time he s featured again with his other project, the more techy/ more minimal die roh, who recently had an underground athem with their release on black venison. the duo here seemingly lean their sounds in the direction of the label s and offer two-cut ep which is their deepest effort yet to date. surely more djs will play the dancier a side, behind 6000, but for us, the groovier b side and title track genghis kahn is the choice cut. label owner, nathaniel jay, continues in the precendent he s set with each release having its own unique love note,authored by him, making every one of these records collectable.

it’s not every day you find a keyboard player with chops like john camp. plucked from the same minneapolis jazz vine that grew such deliciously ripened talents as no regular play s greg paulus and aaron james (gregory porter band), we met camp for the first time at the marcy hotel. initially adding his signature touch to other’s crew love records and last year dropping an incredi- ble ep on have a killer time, the mistral ep marks his first official crew love release!

lab.our 06 features offbeat, dancefloor techno from hermans. hermans (jerry riggs dick diamonds & maxwell church) already have releases out on labels such as run out run, klasse recordings, zodiac44 & extended play, among others. a1 is sweat box rock, an epic stormer that sounds like a techno jam session with alternating beat patterns and dirty keys. b1, dustin tombtones, is an uptempo acid workout destined to move dancefloors. b2 is a remix of sweat box rock by lab.our music bosses basic soul unit and j-ul.

the mexican multi-genre record label cvmr returns in its wax infused form with its sophomore vinyl-only release following the sold out, larry heard remixed, tijuana-made phenomena *lip reading* by soul of hex with a newcomer artist. fedde, hailing from the strictly-vinyl/house-head-friendly dance floors of mexico city and currently living in berlin, presents his debut record on the label, with his extended play format entitled *supermoon ep* accompanied by a remixe of the konotopian genius of ukraines hardware experimentalist vakula.

well cut records return with another deluxe vinyl release with dubble d presenting under his irrepressable moodymanc monniker. side a opens with comfort me, a deep and gritty sounding soulful jam, followed by a retouch of war and peace, a deep and dirty disco dance floor monster which has done serious damage in the past. luke solomun opens side b with his love and death re-make, toughening up the drums and adding some analogue twists to take the energy levels up to the point of frenzy! the record closes with hashtag, a no nonsense, tough chicago inspired groove which plays backdrop to a conversation between snoop dog and g unit about the music game today which we thought said a lot about the state of play in house music today! a beatapella is an addition to the digital version of the release for those djs who want to get more creative with the message!

the rise of azimute continues, after a their killer debut on crosstown rebels, an appearance on john digweeds live in toronto and much received hype with their new vinyl only label, azimute music. we are the sound ep is a full on journey into the unique sound of azimute. the first track on the ep is taken from the title, it features the vocals of rocky washington who has worked with the likes of snoop dog & jay z. the track has infectious percussion from the start and rolls effortlessly through, azimute s signature sound takes control as rocky s vocals complete the journey, a definite late night anthem for sure. next up is laterra, this true hypnotic and percussive piece is built for the main room and is certain to cause damage. on the flip side of the vinyl we have -under control-, its a stripped out eerie yet beautiful piece of techno which builds and builds, certainly one for berghains main room. finally we have the track entitled -way back-, another late night techno roller, with clever guitar stabs and a clean sound scape layer that draws you in as the record play

the fine folks at moton, that will be diesel and jarvis, hook us up with something a little special this summer, slimming their usual 12- format down into superb colored 7 inches of edit delights... sister to sister does its thang with plenty of soul and sass, blowing our minds with far out funk, and full on frequencies. last but not least, diesel and jarvis go beachcombing with the blue eyed boogie off flipping it over we are the sunset, is a jazzed out, funked up cut ripe for early hours or end of night play.

mono junks label dum records is back! in 1994 an untitled 12” ep emerged from helsinki, finland. it was produced by an unknown duo called coopers and released by dum records. that particular squelchy sounding piece of wax helped to establish the sound that was later to be known as finnish minimal techno. alongside sähkö recordings, dum was one of the mainstays of gloomy northern electronics until its death in 2007. after an extremely long hiatus both dum records and coopers have now resurrected and instead of their trademark minimalism they offer now a 3-piece ep full of techno maximality! * indian acid* is a wonky excursion in repetition topped with roland corporations classical tr-727 congas, * ixam* takes you back to the soundscapes of 90s dreary finnish acid and * maximal fun* is a 12-minute trip to the electronic kraut techno madness of the coopers. play loud and preferably in dark. coopers are back with a vengeance!

another day , first track of the ep, starts with some radical percussion based house that leads to a gliding deep base, underlined by vocals. in collaboration with gallya on she said , the duo takes it to the deeper level and combines spheric sounding percussion with gliding mallet notes which distinguish the track. afterhour straightness that involves all leftovers to move. last but not least, simone vitullo adds an arpeggiated techhouse-version of another day to the ep. a dark sub surrounded by minimalistic hats and strict but heavy beats bring down the sound of an great acidic house work. definitely an ep to play at dark and dusty hours.

over two decades ago, roland leesker would play and produce with artists that are legends today. slaving away with ricardo villalobos in his living room, creating loops with john selway at new york s satellite basement, working as a light jockey for joe jam and marc spoon, cooking the heat together with cajmere and ata at the wild pitch club, or running various record shops around the globe. since then, he’s invested much of his time, knowledge, heart and soul into electronic music to further the scene and support the art. now, he’s returned to the studio with his production partner philipp maier also known as sante to bring you a new instant classic, ‘my warehouse’ in a way, you could say ‘my warehouse’ has been in the making for 25 years. in that time roland leesker has studied the music, gathering inspiration from the sounds, people and experiences along the way and putting them all together to create his perfect sound. ‘my warehouse’ is a bass-laden house killer, with intense kicks and a gritty, in-your-face bassline.

in 1997 the vienna, austria based live act syncmode was founded and formed by bernd rausch & sascha sadat guscheh. their first 2 eps were self released between 2001–2003 and continue to play an important role in their reclusive production ethic. they continue collaborations with a close knit operation between 24seven and breakin stevens, which has directly triggered them to surpass the common duo and develop into a collective of changing members, which include the latest fixed members christof winkler and sonny blake. this ep is stripped down to a mix of live synthesis and heady synth-sync and machine drum trickery as it touches on past and future electronic music production techniques and solidifies these four tracks on a solid 12&#8243, vinyl. very rare and limited! due-out-in-summer-2015!

daniel.t. has been subtly making waves over the past few years as one half of the la duo cosmic kids with releases on labels including throne of blood, let s play house and dfa. a record collector and selector at heart, 2015 has seen him flesh out his solo productions with world-leaning contributions to chit chat s brazilian tinged 12 and american standard s african summer stunner. young adults brings daniel into the fold for his debut tetrachromat mini-lp spanning a sprawling spectrum of sounds, but unified by a signature west-coast sheen. opener mission hill morning stretches its arms in the early am mist, tetrachromat jogs steadily toward the horizon and planetesimal accelerates the mph in the drop top down pch. on the flip, laced takes a smoke break down a dusty dirt road, akoussah sprinkles some sultry spice and the sun & the sky sits back while the sea sips up the last remaining daylight.

the television screen is the retina of the minds eye david cronenberg, videodrome 1983. passarella death squad lynchpin danny passarella collaborates with london techno producer perc to create 5 soundscapes echoing erotica viewed through supercharged synapses to accompany the recent series of artworks created by danny passarella that share similar voyeuristic obsessions. lavishly colourful, the listener is drawn towards them, like an obsessive james woods slithering into his television in the climactic sequence of cronenberg’s horror classic videodrome. available as a limited edition 12- see-through blue vinyl release, the 5 tracks act as an abstraction and intensification of the mood set with their previous collaboration temperature s rising .

where to now? records are proud to present beatrice dillons follow up release to the widely well received * blues dances*. this three track 12 inch sees beatrice step things up a gear in terms of intricacy, experimenting wildly to add to her already astute palette of timbre and rhythm. face a leads the record with the unmistakable skronk of saxophone cutting and jamming over the skeletal pulse of beatrices signature dubbed out techno landscape. initially the inclusion of saxophone acts as an aural abstraction or diversion to extract a little freedom from the pumping cavern of dark dub techno atmosphere punctuated with the mechanical juddering saw-bass, but as the piece develops and we become deep into the groove the inclusion of wild sax snorts trips us up and become the focus itself as new levels of complex melodic and rhythmic detail become apparent within this otherwise structurally obedient space. taking its cues from rabih beaini, miles davis * big fun* era, dresvn and keith hudson, undoubtably face a is a compelling, complex trip… heads down but arms flailing. face b continues the theme but takes the listener far deeper into the cavern. here the concern is more the effects of space within song, a moment where beatrice allows herself to move away from the floor to find a little more room for playful experimentation. the saxophone is further treated with a plethora of effects to compliment the array of dub signals that scatter and skip around the basin. the record closes with sonnier (walk in the light) which strangely somehow manages to feel jazzier in its components, even in comparison to a pair of tracks riffing on a manipulated free-jazz sax part. it sounds strangely unsure of its world, adding to this whole loosely slung, loping feel which somehow fits amongst the stern, brooding, and efficient synth play. beatrice masterfully manages to create a piece here that grows in intensity without ever increasing in pace or texture, every drop is intended to stir the listener a little more than the last. theres a sense throughout all the pieces of having rhythm imposed or even inflicted upon the listener but this is certainly not a conflict of ideas… there is optimism, harmony and above all - wild groove nestled within beatrices world of mutant shuffle.

january of 2016 will mark danny krivits 45th anniversary of djing. those decades have essentially spanned the entire arc of contemporary dance musics evolution and, as anyone whos heard him play will attest, danny does the same in his creative, far-reaching dj sets. what better way to mark a 45th anniversary than to release a 45rpm record? the latest offering from most excellent unlimited is a two-sided seven-inch that features danny touching up two percussive monsters that exemplify the down and dirty tribal vibe of the earliest, pre-disco dancefloors.

straight analogue machine jack music for djs to play at the dance floor. tin man, born and raised in california, did a wonderful acid remix and complement this ep.

welcome back to the movielike resonating sound world of the 23s. already in 2008 the mysterious one-man band proofed with the album “bolivia” that they are trying to do another kind of music – something that isn’t entertainment, something that isn’t show, something that goes gently straight to your soul. now the producer from nord-rhine-westphalia did it again and tuned in the longplayer “flamingo”. anew he delivers a special kind of cinematic journey music that grooves opposite to his other, more rhythm based hypnotic dance productions. also as the 23s he produces pattern-based music, but it pursues a different intention: each listener should dive into a hallucinatory world of seen and unseen films that his inner eye creates unprejudiced. all ten tracks are romantic smooth operators. they put themselves in service of an artistic vision, in which the listener should get lost in music. the album can be seen as a love-letter to the movie scores of the french 70s cinema or the impressionistic sound arrangements you can hear in the early cinema of peter greenaway. with double bass heat, discreet piano melodies, levitating guitar chords, some gentle horns here and there and beats that recollect the warm jazz influenced soul of oldschool hip-hop the 23s generate a sublime get-down-deep instrumental journey. you can listen to it attentive. or you can just play it in the back while doing whatever you like to do. it is recommended to play “flamingo” in a decent amount of volume as all loungey tracks begin to live bigger and brighter with sound intensity. if you play it flashy you will experience an atmospheric sometimes light-flooded, sometimes foggy 40-minute electronic journey that offers open-minded souls to fill the room between the notes with their very own milky fancy. soon the album will be accompanied by a bunch of remixes tuned in and twisted by producers like giegling and white artists edward, christian s of the cómeme tribe, canadian producer the mole and the german post rock and electronic music band to rococo rot.

ep starts with my m my s track which was edited with a monoplay voice and collaboration, a classy melodic deep and box track to start the set with. the extended play continue with a «give me love» bomb - groovy and super foxy house track like a colorful kaleidoscope of sounds. no time for regrets is tribal colored and groovy tech house track to be liked by a producers with a thin smooth taste. nehundredandninthizm is ode to a one of most famous synthesizers in a world containing the sounds of it spicy beats and bright percussion line.

wolf welcome their latest recruit, thrilogy to the pack. the ep opens with heaven, a gospel vocal, piano laden house beauty. the eps second track, hold me in your arms, with its long breakdown has summer festivals written all over. we cant wait to play this one in croatia! on the flip, another newcomer, k98 takes heaven up a notch into serious peak time territory.

ive been over and over track running orders, while taking into account the limitations of vinyl. it needs to be a loud cut as anything increasing the chances of this music being played in clubs is a priority. the major development is, i d really like the a side at 45rpm, as before. as well as the extra volume, granular psychosis is an exciting prospect to be able to play at both speeds as its so fast. with this track list below, we re exceeding the time slightly for what i ve been advised is the best 45rpm quality. however, as zattrday has such a limited frequency range, that can be cut to take a very small part of the vinyl. i will talk to, about all this, and ultimately go with his advice of the best way to do this on the day. but i can say it will almost definitely happen like one of the two options below

after waiting 3 long years, and finally getting the multi track session to do a b side, im proud to present the star blazers cover version of the masterpiece danger zone which was originally done my midnight express. many should be familiar with detroit producer recloose, while back in new zealand he assembled a band who called them selves star blazers (an ode to the 70s legendary japanimation series and a big hit on bostons tv38.. indeed recloose is from massachusetts) and they recorded a few cover tunes.upon hearing this i knew it was special. while most modern covers miss the mark, purely emulating and sounding like a cheap imitation, leaving me wanting to just play the original. they flip the tempo, swing and vibe, straight up owning this and making it their own.
