following chicago s disco demolition night in 1979 the genre s popularity fell dramatically, hence fewer disco records being released.in this era chicago s djs such as hot mix 5, hardy, knuckles & jesse saunders played a variety of styles mixing in italo, electronic pop music, electro-funk and older disco joints often playing their own edits which focusing on the portions of the songs which always rocked the dancefloor. at the end of 1982, when dj frankie knuckles left the warehouse to open the power plant, ron hardy started to dj at the warehouse s new location until owner robert williams renamed it the music box. in 1984, a local label released a 12-inch single called -on and on- by locals jesse saunders & vince lawrence who had simple made the song in order to replace a record which had been stolen from saunders collection, the -on & on- bootleg disco megamix by mach. hence chicago house music was born and a modern day phenomenon followed.

stay underground it pays returns! relatively unknown newcomer modula brings us a slab of ruff n ready analog cuts, with a real standout remix from fuckthegovernment! said remix of controllo by f.t.g is so good that it is the opener of the whole record. it’s a remix built for late night experiences, one for the warehouse, with it’s wailing, ravey vocal samples and subterranean rolling acid bassline. the a side is rounded off by modulas tape mix of controllo. doing what it says on the tin, the graininess and saturation that tape production brings is instantly noticeable. while the tape mix is not as sinister as f.t.gs remix, nor as spatially dense, its greater emphasis on synth work is bound to make it a favourite for many suit fans.the b side takes on more of techno form than the a side. kicking off with intrigo (tape edits), the pad sounds give it an ethereal atmosphere, contrasting the almost militant feel of the percussion and bassline. immerso (instrumental mix) is probably the highest energy pick of the bunch, lots of bleepy synth work and crispy power claps might make this track the djs pick of the record. all in all, a top record from modula! dont sleep on it!

for some it might be kraftwerk, but for me, my favourite electronic pioneers are probably australias severed heads. they were so far ahead of the game that they had to invent a lot of the technology they used. inspired, playful, never boring and always sonically brilliant they pushed at the frontiers of electronic music more than most. by the late 80s they were pursuing a slightly more polished course and made a series of records that had the potential to reach a much larger audience. possibly because of their name they never quite managed that, but they had several big club hits, the dub versions of which crossed over into the nascent house scene. i am honoured that i am able to make the dubs of those three 12 inches from 1988 - 1990 available again.

in part 2 of the laffer ep marco bernardi is going head down, straight ahead and striving for energy. attack of the dessert stormers is an overload of dark electro power, six minutes of squirming bassline-driven movement with surges of intensity from analogue bleeps and subtle drum pattern shifts. theres no let up on the flip side where two sliders brings equal force but in a more techno style. right from the start youll be grabbed by the bassline, but this one rewards extended listening as the track develops progressively with new melodies and metallic touches taking you deeper and deeper.

this acetate in 12- consists of 4 tracks of high quality, compelling and heartbreaking techno with a straight line that characterizes the label. on the a side we find a track of the spanish dj horacio cruz and the austrian niereich, otherworldly sounds, amphetamine melodies, excellent power to mix. for the b side we have prepared 2 songs of the both spanish djs c-system and david meiser, two artists in full form, lovers of most hellish sounds. ultimately this label morforecs 003 it is a timeless vinyl designed as a perfect tool for dj booth engineers, techno lovers accuracy.

we are pleased to announce the release of dr burisch by perseus trax on crimes of the future. after releases on bunker, mos & chiwax (to name a few), the ep is a four track soundtrack to some forgotten alien abduction documentary... maybe. starting off with rainy tuesday and its skipping pitch shift melodies, and followed by lotus protocol and its almost richard d. hook. on the flip we have the title track, slow and building, very much the theme of the piece. the ep finishes with electrical surge, and its static crackle of radio interference and damaged power lines.

double vinyl.

es heißt schleunigst aufzuhorchen, sobald good guy mikesh neues material auf riotvan droppt. auch wenn es schon eine weile her ist, das letzte, seinerzeit noch an der seite von filburt auf riotvan aufgefahrene -no other- klingelt immer noch als eine der unwiderlegbarsten house-hymnen der letzten jahre in unseren ohren. die aktuelle ep triggert da zwar weniger den großen singalong-hunger, formuliert aber dafür in immer wieder neuen schattierungen den selbstbewussten entwurf eines ganz eigenen elektrifiziert-verwaschenen house-begriffes aus

the corner eleventh release presents phil moffa with a very powerful voice with attempt no landing in his corner solo debut, more power!

music that keeps your body busy on the dance floor while it takes your mind to exotic places far away: timboletti creates a tense atmosphere between the stripped-down power of a kickdrum and the intricate network of sounds and melodies. during the titles murrakus and wüstenlauf your inner cinema will show mysterious scenes from an oriental bazaar, at the same time your body will have to deal with a pleasant feeling of restlessness. the frequency spectrum of makrovic is invaded by tripped-out samples, reminiscent of radio transmissions from some odd parallel dimension, resulting in a groove that is deep yet uplifting. barfussbravo sounds just as alien and is just as compelling, as delirious melodies and delay cascades unfold upon tight, driving rhythm sections. mollono.bass delivers a remix that is probably even deeper, a stardust phantasy flying high upon the solid foundation of a standing bass line. in contrast, carlos shifts down a gear and reflects on the multi-dimensional anatomy of barfussbravo during a smooth downbeat version.
