following the black aroma releases, blend it! records and label owner twice are back with a brand new project filled with contemporary dancefloor heaters: collective blends vol. 1. while ‘steel’ and ‘hovo’ on side a will find the likes of house and electronic heads, ‘speedboat’ and ‘metronome’ on side b drop the tempo but keep it soulful and groovy, featuring the multi-talented erik rico on vocals (you may know him from collabs with ron trent, dj spinna, aybee and many more). difficult to categorize, fresh and full of personality, this first release of the series will make you hungry for more.

different fountains & bepotel split 7inch released for the 2nd annual bepdfbbq party. hand stamped limited edition. 200 copies pressed. mayonaised by chris ferreira. misstressed by jose rico.

3rd release of downbeat black label, the sublabel of downbeat. the owners of the label, jose rico, urtzi and f-on present us two long slow motion tracks with field recordings, whirring melodies and voices from beyond the grave. two dense experiments which show us the less kind side of downbeat and continue along the path opened up by *solaris*. only 200 copies pressed.

granulart recordings, with the first three releases, is slowly winning the recognition of techno industry and this new release is no difference, with label owner valentin corujo aka kessell and juan rico under his architectural moniker.

the 18th installment from aesthetic audio brings together four deep architects to form a collective that methodically articulates a symphony of sublime textures, lush chords and unique musical visions. keith worthy (detroit - u.s.a.), miruga (japan), jose rico (spain), and michael zucker (orlando – u.s.a.) are the unusual suspects, and they are here to remind us that it is okay being labeled as unorthodox … it is okay to move to your own rhythm … and in fact … it is okay to applaud the unusual.

comeme means a body that gives itself away. everynow and then worldwide heralds of the loony beats, ritmo lunatics and self-styled electronic primitives join in for a nightlife fiction to become reality. this collective fantasy, utterly devoted to the dark side of the mirror ball, keeps a certain wanderlust. so, if you happen to have your globe at hand, let us twist the ball around and spotlight the places of comeme, episode 15.

with >real face<, we are already giving you the second release of rico henschel aka sweet n candy on our deep circus label. the berlin resident by choice presents his newest work with the title song >real face< and >movement< - two deep, groovy summer tracks, completed with spherical elements that make this sound perfect for the upcoming open air season.
the french producer fred siera adds a remix of >real face<, which is a real bomb! the clearly defined bass sounds will have a mighty push on any dancefloor, still the remix feels really smooth because of the rest of the arrangement, making this track overall even more enjoyable. let the summer begin!

a good thing takes its time, thats what rico henschel aka sweetncandy must have thought. after a little off-time for the producer located in bielefeld (ger) and an ample re-orientation phase, he is back now in the electronic music game with fresh sound – a sound that really hits your ears and brain, which makes us even happier to present sweetncandys debut single >feel something, say something< on our deep circus label. besides >feel something, say something<, the record contains two more tracks: >dew drop motel< & >you and you<, both bringing you lots of deepness, groove and funk just like the title-track. enjoy

phat grooving instrumentals by jay dee aka j dila!

geno is pleased to present our second release from jonny cruz. jonny hails originally from san juan, puerto rico but currently splits his time between berlin and miami. you may already know him from his deep tech house releases on cocoon, vakant, dame, and my favorite robot.
the sugar lips ep is a sleek and sexy tech house record made for the dance floor. sugar lips simmers and pulses. these are lips you would not mind kissing. the flip side features lati for another functional yet sophisticated dance floor bomb, alfaguara. transparent and playful synths and a deep organic bass define alfaguara. we hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

siriusmo, der seit einer dekade auf verschiedenen berliner labels veröffentlicht und mit remixen für scissor sisters, gossip, chikinki, simian mobile disco, boys noize, digitalism, chromeo, munk u.v.a. ein beachtliches repertoire vorweisen kann, liefert endlich ein komplettes album ab. seine musik beschreibt der ex-graffiti-künstler, der mit stevie wonder, den beatles & hip hop aufgewachsen ist, als futuristisch. nicht jedoch dem heutigen bild der zukunft entsprechend, sondern eher wie man sich die zukunft in den 1970ern erdacht hat: übertrieben, ausufernd, improvisiert, farbenfroh, extravagant und offen für alles jenseits der eigenen vorstellungskraft. >mosaik< ist eine ca. einstündige musikalische zusammenstellung unterschiedlichster musikalischer ideen und stilrichtungen. futuristisch, vielseitig, überzeugend und einprägsam!

after the big succes of hi tech booty, we searched for some really special guys out there to put hand on ahmets bomb. well here it is. a1 comes from maetrik which was a strong desire of ahmet and for sure an excellent choice. he totally brings in his own style while getting a little bit closer to the darkside of the track. a2 is a special collab between rainer, which we know from the last regular stock5 record together with cesare vs disorder and viudez, a mexican guy that seems to have a very nice influence to the production style. the vocal is very present but placed, arranged and transformed geniously. for sure a weapon! b1 is written by our special friend chris sylvester aka inxec. starting with a very housy groove, it falls quickly into a hypnotic mood that is unique in inxec productions. he really knows what the dancefloor requires and for this we are very happy to have him again in our release roster. b2 presents a very new and fresh artist called rico casazza. he interprets the track in a very detroit way, works verz little with the vocal but hits it very perfectly for the sense of the track. after this debut on our imprint you can be sure to hear more of this young guy in the next time!!!

always welcome at theory, juan rico aka reeko, delivers yet another stormer of an ep. neatly fusing his darker mantek material with more detroit-ish flavours, this 4 tracker sees reeko continue to grow as an artist whilst never losing sight of the dancefloor. enjoy!
dj support from ben sims, oscar mulero and surgeon (a1 featured on surgeons fabric mix cd)

a1. >everybody techno< - this is typical of gideons dance floor techno style, thick beats with a marching bass-line. from the first beat we are guided through a tough no-holds-barred trip into an unforgiving world of the darker sides of techno music. a retrospective vocal with a sinister laugh completes this evil peak-time track.
a2. >flight to right now< - this minimal track snaps along with a very basic beat and synth combo. the synth rises as the track progresses to keep dance floors moving. there is a wonderfully simple aspect to this track that gets under the skin and allows people to really connect with it.
b1. >recession tool< (vocal mix) - recession tool is a chunky tech house track with a wonderfully chewed up vocal and ever-present reverse snares. the track pumps forward until a nice rising breakdown lifts to complete with more vocals and intricate drum loops.
b2. >rico< - rico is a long progressive track with a slow builds and a warped lead line. the least aggressive track on the ep and possibly the least expressive. that said, it still ticks along seamlessly with a perfectly crafted warble and smart drums.

straight minimal techno !! mixes by rico puestel & strich acht !!!

one of the master teachers of the norwegian house and disco rune lindbaek - who put oslo on the house map as part of the those norwegians ( paper music ) - joins forces with younger disciple kare frisvold for a potent, accoustic hallucinogenic called >bozak brewed with the shared knowledge of mad sounds scientist like walter gibbons and lee scratch perry: a constantly building electrical storm of strange psychedelic synth noises pierced by flutters of rico rodriguez style trombone solo, liquid guitar scales and kraftwerk like melodic fragments all held together by a forcefull drum beat. the quirky >spok & spenning< on the flip is another beautifully strange mixture of cinematic melodies, like sweated out by a drunken ennio morricone, over an easy skanking beat and comes additionally in a stripped down bonus beat plus spacey sounds version by prins thomas. take a trip to your mind!

marius mevold aka mindflow is 25 and hails from trondheim in norway. his nsd debut was picked up early by 1xtras mistajam and when you hear it you?ll soon see why. mindflow has created an absolute monster of a dubstep track thats so catchy even your mum will be dancing her socks off to it: fact. switched has all the elements of a festival anthem, lush old-skool piano chords, soaring diva vocal cuts and huge sub bass wobbles that will shake any summer sound system. just when you think it cant get any better, the half time dubstep beat switches into rolling uk funky vibes. really and truly, this tune is a beast and has already had huge club and radio support from mistajam (6 weeks running on his 1xtra show!) as well as annie mac, kissy sell out, scratch perverts, oneman and caspa. of course a never say die release wouldnt be complete without killer remixes and this one is no exception. d&b men of the moment and remixers extraordinaire, dc breaks, have taken switched to new lofty heights with their super production skills. in line with the old skool vibe of the original, the crisp beats and breaks underpin an awesome sub driven roller that is sure to be on heavy rotation for the summer. dj support: anne savage, cut la roc, excision, far too loud, flux pavilion, freq nasty, futurebound, general midi, high rankin, jaguar skills, kid kenobi, pendulum, reset!, rico tubbs, riskotheque, starkey and more

chris udoh & june lopez together as the (e)motion detectors dropping a deep 3 tracker.

the a side starts with a haunting deep electro-ish intro track >hall of mirrors<, followed by >l.a. rocks electro<, a phat electro bomb with heavy vocoder action and 80s b-boy vibe on it. a3 >malos de la noche< is a monster electro-disco track in giorgio moroder kicking back style, spiced up with a deep bassline and sweeping synths. pura koka! >russian invasion< on the b side is melancholic but yet hard rocking electro track with catchy drum programming and massive synths – an absolute hit! the last track on the ep is >los medicos con coca<, a smooth electro-disco jam inspired by miami vice. just imagine sonny and rico in their black daytona spider cruising down the streets of miami on a sunny summer day in 1984.

the gang at plant music is super stoked to release the third single off tittsworths debut album 12 steps, a remix package by an all star cast. here he comes features the voices of the ladies du jour, nina sky, who are currently killing it on major lazers keep it going louder as well as a hot 16 by club rap sensation pitbull.

the chile house connection continues to sling the dopest stuff to our floors, barely satisfying the constant craving of dancers and punters worldwide for the highly addictive mixture of salacious latin polyrhythmics and organic afro inspired drum sounds with universal electronic 4/4 beats. cut and wraped up neatly by chile born and fastly rising don felipe valenzuela and swiss expat dani casarano, this duo continues with this heated 3 tracker to further cement their reputation from earlier releases on fumalab as a highly combustible combination: elastic compulsively grooving house beats are intervowen with latin-american call and response vocals in >otra vida<, the fittingly titled >push< constantly builds up the pressure even in the breakdowns with frantic, flamenco style hand clapping and >the little house< with its disco style bassline and the conga driven beat hints at the fruitful marriage of latin, soul and dance music in the melting pot of 70s new york. muy rico!!

the new summer hit by r.i.o.!! includes mixes by chriss ortega vs steve forest, ph electro and rico bernasconi!

with remixes by deekline and ed solo, swagger beats and rico tubbs, it very well could be the largest booty breaks track of 2009. a essential buy for those who like to bounce!

evoking the very spirit and energy of puerto rico and tis beautiful people, >ponce< pays tribute to traditional instruments like the güiro and maracas and the traditional african-originated musical stlyes of >bomba and plena< which will have you feeling like you’re getting down at a street carnival in downtown san juan in no time! the second in vega records’ new series of tracks inspired by the musical landscapes of lands near and far, louie vega now presents a smooth, rolling track inspired by the bahia region of northeast brazil, commonly referred to as the >african soul< of brazil and the country’s home of afro-brazilian culture.powerful drums, strings, eclectic instrumentation and an electronic edge make ‘bahia’ a rolling masterpiece. perfect to layer that accapella over or just to bounce to, >bahia< is as brazilian as samba and carnivale, and will prove just as difficult to abstain from.

production partners dj rico & mr fuzz aka grantorino have been in the scene for a while influenced principally by the 70s soul, jazz, gospel, funk and with a passion for world music, and they now drop this massive urban house single, which is due on their upcoming artist album on raisani records. the first single shake the black star, is exactly as what the title says, the track is deep yet hip that you will feel from the voice or the vocal hook that its been shaken by the hot urban star!!!! the single was featured on the dubai sessions compilation and lately on the dubai heat sampler and now after 8 months of wait we finally did the alix alvarez remixes to this biggie!!! shake the black star by grantorino is a funky groovin house track enriched with cool rap vocals, definitely for the hip house heads.

new hot 2007 hands up house mixes of the mega 90ths dance hit by disco deejayds, rico bass & tom pulse, jordan & c base

new offshoot to the mean record label – serialism records - combining avant-garde sounds with a seasoned technique for all things minimal. in this case >dried lubricant ep< is an example of quality which doesnt follow the common flow. on this 4 tracker, the classic breed of techno is harmonically mixed up with the quirkiness of our time. a various artist ep which doesnt eave space for misunderstandings. on the a side young frenchman cesar merveille and his obscure melodies and liquid bass lines takes us on moody journey followed by italian rico casazza who plays ironically with our heads in a more funked up style. on the b side ekkohaus opens up the dancefloor with heavy breaks and chorused rim shots while the fourth track from the brainchild of techno producer grimes adhesif delivers an industrial 909 style loopy piece. grimes is the label owner of mind your head records, and has produced tracks which have received much recognition from major djs and artists such as ricardo villalobos

up-and-coming minimal star dinamoe (aka rico puestel) who is about to release several records on big name labels shoes us a variety of his producing talents: from crisp and elegant complexity to harsh and sinister straightness. always pushing as youd expect from schieber..
