with tuomas salmela aka phonogenic, we welcome one of the most established finnish techno and house producers, with releases on 2020 vision, poker flat, moodmusic or f-com-munications. salmelas sound has something dark, reminding of the long finnish winters and cold nights. he does not feast in old times or posts the question of oldskool or newskool, but simply has produced something really new, without getting lost in clicks n cuts or doing too much sound research. phonogenic uses sentimental harmonies and stringent direct beats, that dont need complex building arrangements, but come to the point rather quickly and make clear where the journey will take us. similarly to guy gerber, phonogenics productions also are somewhere in between techno and houseand even use elements of trance. however, salmelas productions always make the impression of being well planned and moody

nice and chunky, keep up doing what you do so wellintroducing deadset: an act that crafts house music in some of its many disguises. the two man team used to do a lot of that, and a little bit of this. before deadset1 and deadset2 came into being, they played in the sandpit with the likes of muse, miss kittin, royksopp, tiefschwarz, justin timberlake, scissor sisters and with labels such as fine, blue fin, souvenir, made to play, wall of sound and tsuba. now they do a lot of this and only a little bit of that. disregarding this, that and the other, their tipping point has arrived… they have also been allowed to play around at the likes of weekend (berlin), panoramabar (berlin), fabric (london), the end (london) and countless other joints. lovingly nurtured, their forthcoming album, keys open doors, is about to be released into the wild from the arms of jesse rose and his front room label. music for now, with an eye on tomorrow, made with sounds of then. deadset 1 is tom mangan. deadset 2 is cass. cass + mangan is dead. long live deadset

nice price deal !!! from electro house to breaks.. new mixed up, eqing and sound tweaking exclusive for this ep by patrick lindsey

played by james mowbray, jeff samuel, john tejada!! news from the anti claves-biter fraction: sub static-label boss falko brocksieper follows suit and warms up for the next album-quantum-leap, however, as a finger exercise first, there is this small, fine ep with three elegantly knitted smashers for the dj from world. as usual this man simply shakes the funk out of the sleeves, so he can afford to pass big music already for the aperitif, which is always best for the meal, right? >esque< builds up the break culture quite high, without falling however, as the pleasantly massaging bass foundation stands firmly against wind and tide. this is the club counterpart to the lightning rod, bundling the crowd s attention perfectly and focusing it to one point, between a glass of vodka (located at the dj-booth) and the horizon (in the head, man, in the head!)

for fans of loco dice, mathew jonson, m_nus, ame, matthew dear, dimbiman, dan bell !!features 3 new unreleased songs from billy dalessandro (force-inc, force tracks, resopal, kompakt) brian ffar (gourmet, tic tac toe) & slutbox…. hot stuff! billy dalessandro known for his bumpy dancefloor productions and driving dj sets, he returns on his newly formed site holder label to lead us through a symphonic slice of minimized and maximized techno. an untouchable hit for the few djs that possess it, all three songs on the ep are tracks that deliver. with intoxicating slow-build introductions which all seem to rise to the perfect point, breaking over with deep sine shaped basslines and beats that kicks the night into the afternoon. the slutbox tune pops and pulses along a more minimal excursion with deep tones, deep bass and melodic key stabs which seem to lock together as the rhythm evolves, propelling a sketch of minimal movement to another, out-there dimension. yes, do believe the hype and look out for site holder

stuck in time is a personal statement on a particular time and of particular experiences in my life. the sounds codebase choses to use on this album point towards an alternate universe of where music may have gone instead of where it is now, fusing analog disco bass and electric piano sounds reminiscent of the 1970s with sampled electronic percussion sounds of today. this juxtaposition crystallizes the temporally frozen sonic landscape of the album a musical fossil from somewhere outside the linear progression of time

funky energetic orlando breaks style

phreaky minimal bassy monster! growing up in a small town in southern germany, joachim landesvatter s main musical influences came via his older brothers in the form of bands like zz top, lynyrd skynyrd and uriah heep. these narrow boundaries could not contain his ever-evolving tastes, however. he soon found himself enthralled by german acts bap, die rodgau monotones and the scorpions, to name a few. the real turning point came in 1991 when he discovered the techno music being played by local djs in the small, rural clubs in and around his hometown. using techno as a springboard, he jumped ever-deeper into the quickly evolving experimental electronic scene and all of its various permutations

fuckin good chicago ghetto tech !! dj assault style

played: steve bug, djulz, a. schneider, jay haze, dan curtin – huge hit ! moon harbour has good news for you: a new artist joining our family – welcome samim! after big success with his projects >samim & michal< and >fuckpony< (together with jay haze) he debuts on moon harbour with his 3-track-ep. the bass line of -eco- (b1) paces through deep frequencies as samim throws in sharpedged snares, wistful dub-synths and an elusive vocalsample: this track is so catchy that it deserves the rare honour of a long b-side – its strong vibe just would have swallowed up any other tune accompanying it. skks (a1) will get you from a different point of view: forget about dub and minimalism, this one is a rhythmical display of fireworks. samim goes in for the full, tictac go the claps and vocal-samples jeer and jiggle everywhere. this track got guts, man!..

it has been over four years since koops last album waltz for koop was released. today the record is still considered their breakthrough record because it sold over 160.000 units worldwide. the critics and fans were raving about the band and even the legendary director woody allen fell for the stockholm based duo and featured their hit single waltz for koop in his film match point. on their new album called koop islands they take us back in time on a enchanting journey into the era of swing orchestras and jazz crooners spiced with some exotic mento, calypso and chanson elements.the first 12 features three nice reworks done by some of swedens finest producers in club sound. markus enochsons transforms i see a different you into one of his trademark deep house tunes while hird puts the vibraphone scented ballad koop island blues into a completly new context by creating a slow rolling dub mix. tiger stripes picks up the pop appeal of the album and delivers a sunny house version of lets elope a perfect radio tune!watch out for a second 12“ coming up on compost records with more fresh remixes by beanfield, alif tree and the innocent sorcerers

following up the massive debut of lets pet puppies, marcus mixx returns with a two tracker of straight up classic chicago dancefloor mayhem. t.a.p. is nasty. you thought you were nasty? sorry charlie, nasty s over here. marcus drops the vocal on this track thats either a precursor or the end point for ghetto tech, and most likely simply in a class by itself. psychousic is somewhere in between classic robert armani / armando, and the best of the early relief stuff. can you say beat track? if your floor doesnt jack to this, you need a new one.

scanning for virus starts with an hard and uplifting drumwork, analogue lines and a dominate bassline bring the track to the highest level within the first seconds….at the push of a button!scanning for virus is pure funk, pure house to describe it just in two word and for sure absolutly peak time guaranteed…and you think that s all there is? keep you temper….on the flip you will find another remix by no one else than super-mastermind and producer of the year claude van stroke, more reduced, more minimal but also to the point.no question, this release seems to be the best on made to play so far,stunning!

its a nice release which include 6 tracks, very dancefloor oriented and powerful, in the proyecto mirage manner. strong distorted noisy rythms, screeching sounds, killer crazy synths and >battle< vocals, pure energy ready to blow your speakers. theres industrialism gothicism electroclashism
