the flames still burn white hot on friedas musics first record. this seems to be no reason not to throw more explosives on top. with the elephant carousel ep the second label maker don ramon inspires a dance carousel that makes even the most peaceful pachyderms on friedas soil rotate. all four tracks are infectious to body and soul. each for itself an original. all four tracks extensively tested on the party crowd by aunt friedas nephew. rather in a club night or at a funny after hour- hands were in the air and the corner of the mouths were rising high. a very special delight for the friends of the upper class reduction surely is the argenis britos remix of the track wild goats. all in all definitely an ep that streches the trunk in the sky!

oskar offermann and his frequent collaborator and label mate edward are two of the brightest rising stars in contemporary deep house music. as head of the esteemed white imprint, offermann has an envious catalog spread across his own label, aim, and japans storied mule musiq, edward has mostly confined his releases to white apart from a single drop on the mysterious giegling, and some outstanding remixes on other powerhouse labels. since their appearance in 2007, the pair of berliners has only one collaboration record between them in spite of a close association, large individual discographies, and frequent pairings behind the decks. it is thus with great ceremony that thema announces their north american vinyl debut with the four-track ep, verses.

this time label boss jacek sienkiewicz goes under his alias reserved for club-oriented tracks, which is, well, recognition. we got accustomed to jaceks slight changes of style, or rather changes in his approach to music over the years, and this record is no exception: ditching his trademark, long, painstakingly elaborate and complex tunes in favor of probably the most straightforward, uplifting, fresh tracks in a long time.

tief is well know in london and beyond as being a clubnight where it resides at corsica studios, showcasing house and techno of only the highest quality, a standard that is now to be transferred to a record label tief music releasing music that we truly love from artists who have a connection with us or what we do.

discovery recordings is proud to release coule ba by analog players society, a collective melting pot of musicians lead by amon. couleba draws from west african influences and features the incredible missia saran diabate of guinea on lead vocals. we came across couleba while finishing the catalano ep at the hook studio last summer. amon was doing his final mix-down of the track and we fell in love with the song immediately. shortly after we lined up the release, the studio and surrounding areas endured hurricane sandy. with the red hook initiative, amon and his family began helping out wherever they could. when power finally returned and the debris was cleared, it seemed only appropriate that the record should benefit the organization that did so much for red hook during that time.

following on from the release of david ks well-received sneakers & playground ep, the unnerving pairing of nico & pherox (aka tim querengaesser) return with a record that is veiled by in a dark and mysterious shroud. nico (previously known as verena) is a young and fresh female artist, influenced from an early age by the classical work of her father (who worked as a music composer), whilst pherox is a more familiar presence in todays deep clubbing landscape, having released on mupa, catenaccio, dumb unit, stock5 and his very own label, slash. on this ep, the pair explore a broad palette of sounds, taking in italian horror film-esque chords, chopped and screwed vocal samples, rolling basslines, soothsaying vocals, drawn out fog horn stabs. this is deep music, flavoured by the nocturnal, tinted by the eighties, and ultimately full of originality.

decks tip! after the great success of veitengrubers supervision ep as the first degree record, the label now comes up with the second hit ep by a very well-known artist - nick curly. the smart owner of the famous and dearly beloved labels cecille and 8bit thereby is giving one of his rare guest performances on other labels. in addition these three tracks are his first ep after his debut album >between the lines< in 2012. by this record, we will divide the long and desperately awaited summer in three parts to cater for all tastes - deep (time will tell), techhousy (people) and a tooly (beat the clock) - available digitally and on vinyl. the time will tell ep is the typical nick curly sound with a fresh note of 2013. so we radially spread warmth and power with sun and sound deeply into your mind.

bryan ferry meets carl craig meets 909 drumtracks produced by an unnamed member of throbbing gristle. chase smith is a studio wizard living in pittsburgh. he shares a studio with shawn rudiman and the boys from pittsburgh track authority. a record so diverse that it makes total sense. vocal sleeze, emotional instrumentals, and a beating drum track for the djs to play with.

sneakers first solo ep for uncanny valley is a record of high humidity. the java / sumatra ep evolved in large parts in indonesia when sneaker lived there for almost a year and it literally conveys the indonesian heat to dance floors in the rest of the world. compared to his acid house-inspired you think you think which was featured on the uncanny valley 004 compilation, this four new tracks show another, rather ark, pop and new wave side of sneaker

ltd repress - after mark ernestus mix of moyege in this series, now his basic channel / rhythm and sound partner comes to the control tower. moritz s deep berlin steppers discloses dubwise traces of our original lagos recording — the percussion of yinka ogunye, the singing of fifties palmwine legend rolling dollar, oscar olimbi s guitar lick — in with his own oberheim voicings, additional drumming, and cool-and-deadly rhythm track. its a tough, masterly dance record in fine rhythm and sound style — which during its ten-and-a-half minutes seems to ponder time elapsed and journeys undertaken. like a stepping razor, but t-u-m-p-i-n. this reggae land version is the take-no-prisoners, pared-down dub of wareika hill sounds rootical rework of ise nla. magnificent trombone and percussion. expert, classical ja mixing. brings to mind those great dubs of glen brown s black man stand up pan foot

some 100 years ago, sweden was a miserable dark and damp habitat. august strindberg captured the soul of the country, ingmar bergman psyched it, and lena nyman sexed it up. nowadays, we add nostalgia about the swedish model to that mix. this record is a story about the sweden you might not know, in which you need a special permit….to dance

nice price deal !!! lux rec once again explores the underground of analog possibilities. blomeier is a extraordinary musician playing mostly live and recording on tape cassette, not having a plan but letting the music find a way out in itself. so these three tracks came out. record is limited to 300 copies, download code included.

every now and then, a record comes along…this is one of those occasions. but...it is not any old record, it is a new one. specifically, the new 12inch single from sundown drive, brought to you by mind fair and rogue cat sounds. moving on from the body and soul that embodied their first trip, sd transcend you to the annals of deep clubland and melodically twist your heart strings with an early morning flutter and a tantric tension. the meandering-yet-purposeful piano finding its feet later in the proceedings this time, but rising to full effect, leaving only the dub to knock us sideways into a beautifully-simplistic dark alley of spring reverbs, synthesized prophecy and the voices in ya head telling you to give it up.

this is the second vinyl for the spanish label that is connected to discos paradiso record shop. agony forces (lycaon) express their experience better than ever. they are growing more and more. very high quality of modern techno. one of the two remixes is signed by an artist who doesnt need any introduction: ness. his style is unmistakable. the surprise is the other remix signed by dark vektor, pure electro that we dont hear much of these days.

hot british rising star james barnsley (get physical, catwash, esperanza) delivers his moan debut with this peak time dance floor bomb frigid which certainly does the business. to add to this heavy weight release there are two monster remixes from franco cinelli & luca bear and these guys need no introduction. also included on the ep is a solid remix from alessio mereu of james barnsleys beat yourself. this release is a record bag must and is certain to tear up the dance floor!

once again, raphaël laredo slipped through the authorities fingers: he does not care about the rules anymore, he infringes the standards and delivers us an ep beyond the correct and required limits! the only indication, its address: the club -akasha-.
rafaël murillo is already there, armed with a bomb. despite everything, laredo is a believer, he knows all the good and the bad theories. he insists on involving us, from the top, on the traces of the plot -crop circles- supported by the strong foundations of his brother, gaffy. the tech house spirit of laredo glides between paris and barcelona. eloïse oddos totally seized it when she designed the amazing record sleeve of crop circles for seconde.

hailed as the most requested record ever by londons phonica records, re-release of this brilliant track on international feel, complete with a 2013 techno redux and the glorious new beat of god is gracious. 180 gram vinyl. played by everyone!

rise above is a 4 track 12 inch release thats takes inspiration from a dive to the depth of the 80s chicago house. each track brilliantly explores melancholy, and futurism with a strong sense of rhythm, while classic drum tones embrace the beauty of strings and pads, served with melodies that the heart will not forget. a classic, and definitely a must have record.

ms. smooth socal soul meets mr. nocal dirtybird swagger and they have a baby together. that baby is justin jay and at 19 years old he is already making his 3rd appearance on dirtybird. i have a feeling this is justin jays breakout record. the a-side static is at 119 bpm and will sweep you up then rip your pants off. but even when you get hit with the massive bassline, an old school anchor stays intact. waves b-side has a classic deep dirtybird feeling, with tuned 808s and a surprising melodic element showing off the sweeter side of this up and coming young gun. justin jay has more potential than anyone i have heard in a while and if he continues to play like he has been lately, he has a long dj career ahead of him as well.

ok, first of all i want to reveal a myth: these infotexts are mostly writtenby the labelowners themselves, not by hard-working editors. so what happens, when the guy behind a label releases his own music? well, either he is a well-organised deadline-machine and he asks somebody capable of doing this stupid job, or he realizes:
>oh fuck the distribution whats to do their work and they needed thissheet weeks ago...< so in the end, hes gotta do it himself: of course,now i could tell you how great this record is (what it is!) and what ahell of a motherfucker i am (also true!)... but i prefer telling yousentimental other bullshit instead... :)
this ep marks a newbeginning in my career. since some time now, >the fog burns off< and we get more and more stable in the buisness. last year we were on the road quite a bit and we found many new friends. people from other cities, who believe in the same things, who do similar stuff and who are of the same kidney as we are. so that makes me very happy, which reflects in the music. for the first time i feel like coming home, although we are at the beginning of our journey into the industry yet.

repress 2013 !!the second release from geography records is the debut solo ep by the very talented julius steinhoff of smallville records. steinhoff sets a beautiful atmospheric mood throughout the eps three tracks. starting of with the warm and vibrant >mischief of one and another<, then the straight forward yet subtle >out in he woods< and ending it with the mesmerizing >zealand<. >out in the woods ep< is a future classic whitin modern deep electronic music.
julius previous outings consist mainly of collaborations and split eps on such great labels as underground quality, laid and of course his own imprint smallville. on geo 002 julius gets the entire record for himself and the result is a magic 12 inch which we are happy and proud to share with all of you.

superb reissue of ron trent s all-time deep techno classic altered states. made when he was still school-age, and released in 1990 on armandos seminal warehouse label, this record was an immediate underground club hit, turning ron into a local hero, kickstarting his hugely successful production and djing career and making him probably the only chicago house producer to rate one of the best techno singles of all time! this classic acid workout is stunning in its simplicity and has been described as one of the most perfect and moving tracks ever heard. the other tracks are also very beautiful in their own right despite having been overshadowed by the epic altered states - the afterlife was included on dj hells x-mix-5. all tracks digitally remastered for superb sound quality

here we present good vibrations, the debut ep on local talk from canadian producer orazio fantini. the best thing with this ep is that it is simply straight up house music that is both deep yet raw and funky all at the same time. basically, its very local talk ,) first track, to the ball, starts off with a bubbling bass line, followed with shuffling hi-hats and swinging beat that is glued together by glistering synth stabs, infectious to say the least. turn the record over for feel it, which showcases fantinis clever use of vocal samples blended together with the perfect swing and last not but not least, on hold is a stripped track but with all the necessary elements to make the feet move.

1nce again is back, this time with the first single in a double package! this is the first of two 12 inches containing one of our absolute favourite tracks from prolific producer ken duke aka dj duke. closer was orginally released back in 1994 on dukes power music records and the amazing klubb kidz mixes quickly found its way into many djs record bags, including label boss mad mats who rates the flava dub as one of his favourite deep house cuts of all time. if u ever heard mats spinning a house set chances are big you have heard this mix blasted loud! first up for remixes duties this time is mark seven, parkway/parkwest label owner, a true djs dj, a passionate music lover and record collector extrodinare. the so close mix of closer is deep house at its finest, an homage to the classic prescription sound keeping it ultimately atmospheric. the stalker mix continues on the same vibe yet develops into something more meaty and pumping during its course. together with the original klubb kidz flava dub and the mark seven mixes this release got everything a true deep house head needs.

this is a whole new level of weird - intones a disembodied voice on proximas thermal vision the lead track of his new 12 inch for tempa. it is a perfect summary of its disorienting appeal: winding upwards through a tense opening, it abruptly explodes into a turbulent salvo of percussion. its monstrous chunks of sound chop violently back and forth from speaker to speaker, assaulting dancers from all sides and broadsiding the senses, while sub-bass blasts upward from beneath. it is both alien and astonishingly intense, poised to detonate on dancefloors without ever resorting to stereotypical club banger tricks. it is easy to hear why proximas tracks have become regulars in dubstep scene figurehead youngstas record bag.

after a 12 inch for the souterrain transmissions label and a split lp with ducktails on no fun productions, dracula lewis delivers his long-awaited debut full length u$e your illu$ion$, a title which evokes an imaginary deviant glamour which is synonymous with the teasing nature and sense of mystery which is a part of dracula lewis world. working with an abundance of pop based ideas with an abstract mentality, the record brings to mind, in manner and tone, hallucinatory avant strategies that were typical of the second wave of industrial.
