the haunting is a production straight out of the highland beats studio. jan liefhebber goes back to his roots with this old-school techno acid track. the ep starts with three minutes of pure techno accompanied by a haunting undertone. a contagious tb303 bass line kicks in when you least expect it and brings the track to a pounding crescendo inspired by early horror films and the dark rave sounds of the 90s. ritzi lee is no stranger to the art of techno and has remixed the haunting with his favorite tool the tr909 leaving the original acidic skeleton intact. ritzis detroit-influenced techno mix completes the 12inch and makes it an essential piece of red transparent vinyl for all techno freaks. experiments have been carried out on unsuspecting crowds around the globe and the first results are extremely satisfactory. hb041 is supported by miss djax, aaron liberator, bart thissen, nimbuz and buzz goree (mixworks/underground resistance)

the second record >trapez 100 pt2< features a great dynamic track by dominik eulberg, and two remixes, one by break 3000 of oliver hackes legendary trapez track >der vampir von düsseldorf< and the other by the famous berlin duo format:b of florian meindls hit track >blast<. welcome back to the trapez world. dominik eulberg released stunning records on trapez in the past: >gasthof zum satten bass< was a huge hit and also >adler< createda waves of enthusiasm. with his exclusive track >ambivalent< for the trapez 100 release he refers to the days when techno was defined through its drive and enormous dynamic. >ambivalent< is exactly such a pounding driving track with a big synth joining in that creates joy and a great rush. mr eulberg was in a really good mood when he finished this track and we expect it to be played on many big raves. >der vampir von düsseldorf< (eng. the vampire from duesseldorf) is a legendary track, we released without any writing on the etiquette and just communicated by word. very few people knew that oliver hacke produced it and a lot of people like michael mayer and richi hawtin played the limited 12 inch a lot. now you get a very cool and fantastic, monumental, grinding remix by dirt crew records label owner break 3000. the format:b remix of florian meindls slammer >blast< is a winner. they manage to walk the fine line between techno and minimal by using sounds from mystery movies and funky beat patters, as well as slow down beats which create funky breaks and interludes that provide the original with a more trippy and rhythmic side.

dissident label boss andy blake with his debut solo release - a savage, pounding industrial behemoth clocking in at over 18 minutes.

the model is no stranger to gigolo, and we (the royal we) are no strangers to the model. as a supporter of gigolo records, you, our fated reader, should be familiar with our protagonist previous gigolo adventure. but in the words of the late george harrison, >all things must pass< and with this in mind we would like to reintroduce...
the model doesnt just have his own sound, he has in fact attempted to engineer his own genre: dark-techno-baroque. the sound has been crafted through a penchant for aristocratic mannerisms and a passion for high fashion and low fetish. it also happens to pretty succinctly sum up part of his unique personality. set against a backdrop of refined charm, there s an underbelly of something dark and brutal, which is possibly the best way to describe the a-side >in the night<. in many ways this could be seen as a return to form for gigolo, immediately poppy but structured as a classic song with haunting vocals underpinned with a driving techno rhythm. to further consolidate the techno aesthetic look no further then >flex on the b-side and you have a pounding track that could have been played by daft punk in 96 and will probably find a home with a diverse selection of djs today.
the >vampire funk ep< is the first release from the models forthcoming album on gigolo. the concept is in the same vain, but delves deeper into the dark-side of the model. exploring his fetish with the night and creatures that occupy its opulent corridors. like classic transylvanian tales the music from this album will present details that set the mood and composition to create tracks with narrative regardless of lyrics or words. the result being music that moves both bodies and minds and stirs the blood. as pretentious as this sounds the author of this mindless scrap of paper has the fortunate privilege of speaking from experience. as the mind that moves the hands that moves the keyboard is the mind that is being moved by the music as i type and you read. so we are already part way there. the rest will unfold in the coming months.

top ten of techno dj legend dave clarke and ben sims !! michael walgram, born and still living in steyr, started his dj career at the age of nineteen. that time he was deejaying at small private parties, heating up the vibes with commercial beats. the artist mike turrento was born. however, he soon started to alter his style and went from commercial music to fine, chilly, yet pumping and pounding tribal techno. he is especially known for enriching his sounds with numerous sound effects using different equipment. the hype of minimal techno did not alter his individual style, yet he tried to combine minimal and classic techno with breakbeats. through adding skillbreaks, speedbreaks, scratches and spins he managed to find the perfect mixture and created outstanding classic breakbeat techno sets.

its already well-known that cocoon recordings is a sucker for tracks that stand out of the usual field of - lets be honest - often uniformly reduced tech-house, and the past nine years of the labels history have proven this sustainably. and the rhein-neckar area based team flatner/lopazz are again two hot candidates to leave their very special mark on the summer of 2009. after all, circlemusic manager alex flatner is rocking the floors as a dj and producer for already 10 years now, having been releasing for labels such as harthouse or black nation, whereas the heidelberg-born stefan eichinger aka lopazz has made himself a name with releases on imprints from the likes of output, international deejay gigolo and mainly get physical. together they celebrate a very funky understanding for percussive techno, which is setting highly meaningful moments for the primetime, particularly by means of lascivious vocals. i wanna take you all night long, for sure! and you definitely cant find a better expression for the perfect pounding symbiosis between bass-focused club stompers and economically dosed pop elements than its time to make up your mind.
