summer killer tune! big with tiefschwarz, shir khan, matt walsh, turmspringer. as a record label klasse recordings acknowledge and develop the ideas between racing, electronic music and the man vs machine relationship. the concept of artist and founder luca lozano and agent daniel zedelmair, klasse holds up the classic spoked wheel design of a racing bike as a symbol of strength and unity which contrasts with the disposable doses of instantaneous gratification found on electronic music blogs and in so many discotheques that they have encountered on their travels. located within, but not constricted by, the genres of modern house and techno, klasse aims to evoke the depth and narrative of themes such as travel, movement and repetition, fusing the rich sounds of traditional wind and string instruments with the accuracy of synthesisers and drum machines.

with the release of >free k. loudwiggle< the accumulation of impressions from over the last 2 years has ended. the musical production took about 21 months working in berlin and the circle. during the productionperiod my technical tools and instruments enormously developed making it a very inspiring time to create and arrange rythmics and harmonies.
at a dark night in autumn 2009 i decided to move back from berlin to the circle. back around christmas 2009 the quiet wintermonths took over and re-created the studio in the circle where i was able to sitdown and mixdown the tracks i created over the last 21 months in berlin.
for the first time i decided to give this particular album the unique touch by handmaking all the artwork. every single record has been handstamped both sides, the covers manually printed and put together. all 200 pieces are different and have their own singular identity. now, at the end of june 2010 i can present this big collection of expressions. quagmire ltd is a small platform to release this debutalbum. limited to 200 pieces of triplepack 12 inch including 13 mixes.

following his wicked remix of the revenges forever in their debt, home taping welcome back the maverick dj and production talent that is red rack’em. red is the force behind the much loved smugglers inn radio show and has had releases on top imprints like tirk, untracked and deep freeze for which he has received props from the likes of gilles peterson, mr scruff and greg wilson amongst others. in his first outing for the imprint red decides to fuse two very different sides of his musical repertoire. the first cut, pressure is an early 90s inspired banger that draws from his teenage experiences of house music and captures the spirit of those end of festival dj sets when the dance floor is really going off. flipping over to the other side, back home is an expertly crafted slo mo collage of sounds which was written back at his parents home in a scottish fishing village and is all about reds feeling of being at home and sifting through his dads record collection looking for inspiration. also on the flipside, is up and coming japanese producer and red rack em favourite kez yms beautifully deep detroit inspired rework of pressure. put house back into your life and ease the pressure with the sounds of home taping! two top workouts that will rule the floor! press play and feel the rhythms!!

supplement facts records takes us to that detroit sound, with their next release featuring sierra sam & marcus vector… the auteurs of industrial techno. the man made jobs e.p. is an eager little package of tracks with a nod to the past, but with its sight set straight to the future. the opener >gangsta pimp style< echoes technos birth-city, driving beats and metallic stabs of synths merging with the spoken word rhetoric, intermittently making itself known throughout the pieces sprawling 7-minute runtime. >things you do< moves things to a bit lighter frame, but dont let that description lull you into thinking it as throwaway. this tracks dominates with the ever-present high stringnote that made so many hits in the past. this classic sensibility and a vocal hook which you will be humming for days later…make this track memorable. taking us straight to the 90s, >flagboy< is the final track to round up this powerhouse of a release. featuring vocals from rockey wahington, this track encompasses the likeability & flavor needed for a classic house record unlikely to leave your bag. its all there - the piano stabs, the cowbells, the soulful vocal. all these elements mixing together to create a track so euphoric that you can finally delete your >pusher-man< contact from your blackberry because this is the newest legal high!

the environmental radiation dose on the moon ep is the first collaboration between zooloft and aconito records. the two labels are twinned in exploring the limits of techno, experimenting with structures and sequences and ultimately arriving at the place where the deep and dark sublimes. the ep opens with the child that was watching the moon a track lifted right out of the drone-techno hymnal. it starts with muddied, subterranean bass and builds not just outwards but inwards. filled with obtuse references and metallic rasps the atmosphere created is obscure and spectral. on the reverse the moon that was watching the child sounds like its been exposed to radiation. the sounds are distorted, as if created from samples of the genome unzipping. the arrangement is stunning, bells filter in and out and the layers smelt into one another. there is awe at work here, but its an awe that remains underpinned by terror. this release, mastered in berlin at the legendary calyx studio, is something of a record collectors dream. it will be released on solid silver vinyl in a very limited edition of just 200 copies. za000ltd should be enjoyed on wax, this wont be available digitally.

funky techno master strikes again! funky vovals vs. pianos! this record screams summertime!

>close your eyes< is easily the most powerful cut on the record. while the low end hammers away and the drums keep chugging, the edge is taken off by sparse piano chords that will keep you flying no matter how tired your feet may be. play it at peak-time and the club will go crazy. play it at the end of the night, and its the perfect note to send people off into the abyss.

memoryman from pastaboys and luka trevisi aka ltj team up for this new project on the label >oh cristo!<(oc001) as ltj has been on this disco tip for sometime, you can expect on that direction, however this 2 tracks are going to be straight into your chart & the record box

escape from new york >singles collection< contains the groups full discography. the group comprising of british record producers john falleti, mike whitford, nigel swanston & tim cox (who also recorded as airstrip-one) penned these two gems in the early 80s at a time when italo disco & new wave were the flavour of the day. >fire in my heart< needs little introduction, an incredible slow-mo balearic masterpiece with rapturous vocals. now worth a pretty penny this originally was released on uk rollerball records in 1984.

just who are the >agents of time< in the title of mathew jonsons debut solo album? is it a reference to futurism, or to the here and now? is it us, are we them?

second release on jamie jones & lee fosss hot creations label is the first release by hot new talent robert james. a burgeoning producer, way ahead of his game who will soon be familiar for his insanely infectious music, not least for -sleep moods- his debut ep. -sleep moods- is the type of record that you never want to end. drilling into the mind with rattling bells, rolling bass and echoed calls of go deep… all night… no sleep. this is an unstoppable dancefloor gem, catching your attention from first listen and leaving you wanting more. as -sleep moods- breaks into its groove through haunting sirens and dark rave stabs that keep the energy levels stoked up, it leaves no doubt that robert james is an original and skilled new artist. on the flip -connected- is another explosive original, crackling with kickdrums and sharpened with supernatural synth stabs. in a similar vein to the sound of jamie jones, the hot creations label creator, you can see where these two producers have found common ground. completing the package, parisien house afficionado dyed soundorom takes on a remix of title track, -sleep moods-. producing a stripped back dubby version that works at any point of the night, a skill that dyed has become renowned for. dyed has been part of the freak n chic crew for many years and has also released on crosstown digital rebels, spectral, murmur and supplement facts.

anyone who ever has listened to a live performance or a record of illeist collective knows of the difficulty to describe the sound they come up with. some say its big beat, some say its rock, electro or dance music. and as always, the truth is somewhere in between, somewhere along the lines of bands such as soulwax, digitalism or friendly fire. and the best way to find out is to listen to their energy-loaded, genre transcending and - most importantly - uncompromising music.

run by annie & sex tags !! finally it’s here! the new long awaited 12 inch from the talented norwegian producer skatebård. these two tracks were originally meant to be released last year, but due to different reasons they never made it to the press, and almost disappeared into darkness. totally and sex tags ufo got hold of them, and now they are here for you to enjoy! way out-why not? are two beautiful and melodic tracks, one with a massive percussive breakdown, and both with skatebårds original and unique italo sound. this is the summer anthem record of 2010, no doubt!! skatebård has previously released on labels such as tellektro, keys of life, supersoul recordings, sex tags mania and radius, in addition to his own label digitalo enterprises. totally is a label formerly based in finland, founded in 2002 by annie and timo kaukolampi (op:l bastards). now it is based in norway, and operated by annie herself. with the label annie releases her own material like the recent album dont stop, and various other artists as well

side a) soft house company – what you need… the most perfect italian piano house tune ever. this record oozes sophistication and perfection in its beautiful construction. as compared to some of the italian piano screamers of the past that have dated quite badly, this continues to live on as a classic emotive piece of house music. a perfect end of the night anthem! a little piano on the flip was regularely dropped at the classic hacienda in manchester circa 1990, huge piano anthem. junior vasquez used to mix 2 copies of this track at the legendary sound factory club in nyc! simple but effective bass with italian piano….. house!

agoria kicks off the summer season with might and dexterity with the release of two brand new tracks. a few weeks from the opening of the soccer world cup, sebastien devaud has made a promise: instead of relaxing on sunny terraces, watching the events unfold on wide outdoor screens, he is going to spend the whole of summer locked up in his home studio –, “,the circle room”, in lyon –, to record his next lp, which will come out next fall. however, this should in no way prevent the sun from shining on dancefloors, thanks to the release, this coming june, of infinées 25th ep.
supported by seth troxler, dop, françois k, laurent garnier, sebo k, oxia, quentin harris, jimpster, chloe, dominik eulberg, ripperton, john digweed, james holden, audiofly, peter kruder, brendon moeller, christian smith, sasha, timo maas, rodriguez jr, rocco, karotte, chaim…, ...

doppelschall is back with its 2nd vinyl instalment. and its clear what the label is aiming for... high quality modern electronic dance music with a warm soulful edge. jazzy injected mordern house tracks from mr bozeman is what they present after the more then excellent release of dollkraut. hypnotic and pulsating house with a dusty sample aesthetic that ads a warm flavor that makes this sound like a record that one knows like its own pocket. brandt brauer and frick committed to do the remix and come up with a brilliant jazzy work out of the title track. needs no recommendation!

the story of this record includes one day in m(dm)ay, anarchic after-hours, laptops, gurner-djs and the need of pressing something that sounded nice, uplifting, somehow kompakt, pop-trance and just so convincing on a 12-inch. databoy78 thought the same and here we go with a seductive and hypnotizing drama. flip the script for a splendid remix by zurichs super dj lexx (zukunft, sometimes known as kawabata and switzerlands version of dj premier back in the day) who houses tings up and giving away a dope swiss beatz excursion on top of it all. lemonade was a popular drink and it still is.

the buzz has been around for some time, but now its getting real! the recently created cologne label magazine will release its debut record >cologne tape.< until now, they have made their appearances almost hidden, but it might not be too far-fetched to refer to them as a kind of supergroup: cologne tape are ada, axel willner (the field), joerg burger (modernist, burger & voigt), philipp janzen (von spar), john stanier (battles), jens-uwe beyer (popnoname)

bringing the virtuosity into contemporary dancemusic, two protagonists found themselves as being the new dreamteam of the scene: thomas melchior and bruno pronsato. and it works perfectly- melchior, the perfectionist who always sets new standards regarding minimal house music and pronsato, the scientist who discovers the unheard and the unbelievable. both living in berlin, melchior & pronsato connected their world of sound and built one of the loveliest records in the whole universe of reduced deepness. on >puerto rican girls< melchior & pronsato play the most wonderful rhodes-line ever created connected with a never-to-stop-rhythm that could last for ages. it features the voice of ninca leece, who just released a super sweet record on bruno pronsatos imprint thesongsays. pure love! on the b-side >we make it right< brings together what belongs together- a fluffy bassline with that kind groove which makes the sun shining brighter.
