one year ago digitaline has released raouls very first release. it has been one of their most successful eps so far and both tracks instantly found their audience and brought raoul onto the main floors of the entire world, where it still stands confortably one year later. so what better than to celebrate one year of the label and welcome digitaline back home? same format: two tracks of deep techno, fat grooves and aerial melodies made for the dance floor. almost made on the dance floor. true! digitaline’s sound is always very inspired by their live performances and with those two tracks the boys wonderfully managed to transpose the best of their live skills, energy and dynamic. before finally being released here, both tracks have been played live on many floors throughout 2011, adjusted slowly set after set to touch every soul listening. a-side neon is a massive groove infecting the entire track through long breaks, while synth strings generate waves of tension in the piece. b-side comet is build around a big round bassline and concret noises that give the track its organic motion. the melodies of the track seem to come out of a fairy tale, dreamy arpeggios that defy the laws of gravity.

russian cool cat sportloto (aka andrey rublev) is making quite a name for himself in the remix realm. he comes from the western urals and makes some of the most splendid electronic music around.the title track >will i< started out as an instrumental on our sister labels tirk03 sampler.after bags of attention and plaudits we decided to nudge things into vocal-drive and add a nifty vocal.michelle bee ably assists with a smouldering and sultry tones. if chord movements and darting electronic lines and arpeggios are your thing then you will love the original.on the remix tip fabrizio mamarella (1/3 of clap rules and bearfunk big dog) chips in with the remix.he takes the organic analog route and trims things down nicely for the dance floor.to round off the package and give an enticing glimpse into the cool production skills of andrey,weve also included the track metamorphosis.andrey is busy at work on his debut album for nang as we speak!stay tuned.

lb003 arrives courtesy of bristol born, brighton based producer sam kidel, aka el kid. following up his well received debut on immerse sam drops 3 tracks of wildly varied bass music. beginning with the title track >hypnosis<, lush ambient pads and plucked guitar soon give way to fearsome bass swells and metronomic percussion, coming across like early autechre remixed by floating points. second track >mud< drops the pace for a noisy house workout, reminiscent of fellow bristolians kowton, and labelmate vessel. >kachinja< on the flip is the straightest - and darkest - of the lot, a lurching warehouse techno cut that wouldnt sound out of place on ostgut ton. finally hyperdub wunderkid walton contributes a rough & ready funky dub of >hypnosis< to round out the ep.

although relish compilation 3 marks the third compiled label round up for headmans relish recordings, it is a compilation only in form, it has been constructed out of new tracks very much in the guise of an album. in label terms it highlights the new artists that have been unearthed this year – jr seaton, andreas esu, hannalelauri, daniel avery, international, montevideo – and presents them alongside new tracks from headman. ep 1 starts on side a with hannulelauris europa, a strict reverence to europes dance legacy. then it slips on into a quick thrust 808 funk of headmans latest be loved. be loved features the vocals of belfast singer rosie blair from the band boy of girl. we then glide through the straight chicago cut of andreas esus dance in space on side b and popping nrg/italo from chmmrs collaboration with glaswegians, a strict reverence to europes dance legacy.

former member of french duo lownza, lowris develops here his solo project futher. while his first record along with chris carrier received the highest praises, his presence on piemonts remix album, next to jay haze or uner, shows that lowris is gently tracing his own path in the electronic field. the >carambar de toi< ep gathers a collection of generous and warm deep house sonorities. spectral sound new recruit pawas is on remix duties for the title track of this third popcorn release. on his version, pawas blends pads, drums and guitars with a round driving bass. freshly signed on poker flat, is frenchman andrade who offers here a gliding reword of >jackin oz<. the original version is a subtle track structured by a frank bass and a distant sonar.

dj pacso steps up again with theses two bangers on one of the best jump up labels around, lowdown deep. if you like your bass round and your beats chunky then you will be all over this release.

soniculture, the lisbon-based label, proudly presents billy dalessandros 5th album entitled cracktime. this project forges a new generation of production style and sound design for billy as he cocks the shotgun of his latest experiment in electronic debauchery. cracktime sonically defines those innocent and naughty moments that each of us exhibit, in our own way, that helps to fulfill our lives with all those insane memories we carry with us back to the grave. thirteen tracks round out this ring match in a dub-infused, 303- injected, chicago-style bassd-out fight that lasts just about an hour. so sit back (or jack back) to the show, and remember...that if religion is the opium of the masses, music definitely gives us our daily crack.

sixth release on the burgeoning diner city sound label, we have featured the legendary 1979 orchestra before on a well received collaborative effort with his buddy volta cab on dcs004. we decided to invite him back to release his own ep with us. 4 brilliant tracks, beat down and fun all round from this exciting young producer!

eminor goes 30! even with round numbers, eminor continues ist path of digging deep into the universe of talents, coming up with a mix of freaky weirdness and heavy reduction. a1: jon seber - juggernaut. after listening to this masterpiece, people will almost certainly agree that this a guy is one to watch! a2: jon seber - juggernaut (benjamin fehr rmx). benjamin fehr turns the original into a wobbling universe of strangeness, an orchestra of the weird. b1: reagen - black clock. with reagen s black clock, eminor dares to step back into the world of harsh and heavy techno, excellent production, a massive order of drums in time. b2: reagen - black clock (dubit s quiet bimix). dubit analyses the black clock with an equally focussed, clear structured yet more subtle approach, toolish and monumental.

rejected look to round out the summer and call in the autumn with a track that has been igniting floors all season for label chiefs edwin oosterwal and joris voorn. >mike loves the horn< also sees a rejected debut for two artists who individually have rapidly risen to the top of their game.

excellent deep house album. andy vaz s straight vacationing, his first full-length artist album, since the 2006 release of repetitive moments last forever…, registers as less a straight-up collection of dance-floor burners and more of a variety pack that mixes club tracks and full-fledged house songs. listeners hungry for just ordinary 4/4 throw-downs will not entirely get their share of those, but they ll also get a whole lot more on this dynamic and well-rounded set of eight album tracks and that is exploring house music not just as a simple one way street, but give you a very personal view of the music we call house.

nice price deal !!! incl marc houle remix !! played by jennifer cardini, r. hawtin, chloe, magda, tiefschwarz, agoria, mandy and luciano. exone hits double digits with dave vega releasing number 10. dave continues where he left off by unleashing the next two tracks based on his convincing crisp, pumping grooves and just the right amount of melodic edge. marc houle adds his remixing talent to round out the ep which playfully hits the spot in the middle- ground between techno and house

following on from last years dachshund skank ep by klic & article.01, we have asked some of our favourite producers of the moment to add their own slant to the originals which previously found their way into the dj sets of martyn and addison groove and gained support from bbc6 music. greymatter continues with his new love for chicago-styled synth and drum machine work-outs with his jacking take on forwards, while pixelord and the hotly tipped gerry read take the track mustard tiger in two very different directions on the flip. the digital release sees the talented new boy blacksmif and hit and hope regular naive machine add their respective twists to round off the release.

round three on blank with phat groovin und pumpin tech house madness

the mysterious robotalco serves up four deep house cuts for nycs on the prowl. robos road kicks things off with the right amount of hissing strings and slow drifting vibes that win its a1 spot. next up we have it gets to me, which strips things back a bit with pulsing synths, sparse congas, and perfectly placed vocal snippets. on the b-side we get moon robot, it keeps things rolling with its stompy feel and more of whats becoming robotalcos signiture swirling synth pad sound. rounding up the release for b2 is zuk zuk, with its quirky low slung groove that develops into a latin percussive gem...its really a superb way to round off robotalcos otp debut. well done.

dj t.s pleasure principle album immerses itself, wholly and rapturously, into electronic musics legacy of authentic soul, helping to usher in a renaissance of groove-heavy house. following the success of the albums singles burning and sense, dj t. turns to the sultry vocal track >city life< to launch into summer anthem mode. dj t.s unconcealed dancefloor curiosity brings his body music instincts to the fore, with the classic sounding house number >city life<, shadowy quirks disarm and charm, while cari goldens uniquely programmed vocals add broad brushstrokes of texture and atmosphere. >city life< recalls the 1980s warehouse era, and finds cari crooning, siren-like >the citys in my veins…<, mixing a rough-round-the edges vocal treatment with hands-in-the-air chord stabs. the >dj t.s rework< spreads the arrangement wider, and dj t. draws even more groove from the original with his dub version. a deep bass swing drives the track, and increases its intensifying atmosphere

classic disco cuts

tes la roks highly anticipated debut album entitled >them< will finally see the light of day. tes la rok made his name in dubstep circles in 2007 with the massive >round the world girls remix< which immediately positioned him as one of the most exciting artists and definitely one to watch. anthem releases such as >under the dancing feet< remix for clouds, >wikidness remix< for mungos hi-fi, and >up in the vip / living fire< on dub police were soon followed by bookings at dmz in brixton and dubstep mecca fwd>> at plastic people. >them< features thirteen tracks engineered with precision and care. these tracks are being championed by the main players such as distance, n-type, kryptic, minds, desto, pinch, addison groove and cyrus.

mr bratley drops 2 slo-house workouts on his foto debut. this sound is big and brash with insistent stabs and filter sweeps over the top of some thumping pitch-down house beats. on the flip things get even heavier with get up, a dark, pulsating beast which ups the jack factor whilst maintaining a slow tempo. to round things off label boss ooft! pulls this sound into solid deep house territory with a smoother mix which still contains some serious bottom-end.

the first world unknown 12 inch kicks off with a slamming piece of prototype house from glasgows naum gabo aka jonnie wilkes from optimo and his production partner james savage. showing that a relatively low pace doesnt mean any drop in energy levels and dancefloor pump power, whop! cracks along like something from an alternate reality version of 1980’s chicago. its as easy to imagine it rocking the house at medusas or the box as it is to envision it in the present day soundtracking some kind of bizarro fetish party or a particularly intense session at berghain’s lab-oratory. this is jacking in the true sense of the word. on the flip side italian born berlin resident franz underwear ups the tempo with a stunning piece of slamming european musclebeat. shades of ibiza 88-89 pervade here, the kind of pumping, chunky synth action, teutonic vocal exhortations and vaguely menacing but ultimately benign vibe that sent thousands of potty european kids totally round the bend and changed the world of dance music forever.

tuccillo is a rare producer as he lives and works in ibiza all year round rather than flies in for the summer. the white island is without doubt the most overused and abused place on earth for dance music promotion, but beneath the glam superficial surface a real scene of native island talent is emerging. so when it came to making an ep for 2020vision we pushed the artist as far as we felt he could go, to explore new untried directions and show his diversity. tuccillo showed his true spirit and worked though a few knockbacks from our a/r team until we were happy we had the best ep possible at this moment
