rhythm odyssey is a production alias of the one and only dean meredith (chicken lips, goat dance etc) here he has teamed up with dr dunks (eric duncan, rub-n-tug) and tis second part of their 2 12 series, the duo have crafted some deliriously good mid-tempo balearia, circles could be a long lost remake of e2e4, and has sunset moment written all over it. >glow< takes the same ingredients and transports them into early 80s dubbed out territory - superb!

the 12 is limited edition of 500 copies worldwide.

with eddie cs previous creation for lets get lost barely out of the barrel of the the labels finely engineered hand cannon we are bombarded with two more selections from the canadian turned berliners seemingly limitless arsenal of secret weapons. masterful re-arrangement as ever ever from the now seasoned producer. side a yields wonderfully quirky balearic vibes while on the flip a horn and string led disco barn stormer reminiscent of a rub-n-tug unknown gem provides what is, for us at least, the highlight of the ep. two very different tracks and a great package all round.

the best things come in threes: after his recent success with the the devil in me, a glorious collaboration with oliver koletzki as part of großstadtmärchen 2, and the big jet plane ep for our good friends at dantze, poster-boy jan blomqvist presents his first 12inch on stil vor talent, ink. things kick off with the title track, whose classic song structure and romantic melodies rub elegantly against tougher, sometimes distorted electronic percussion to create a tension that would be at home on a radiohead lp

first copies will be limited tiefschwarz (deep black) coloured vinyl. part 2 contains two hot remixes from tiefschwarz (souvenir, get physical, watergate records) – pure genius!

vinyl only !! big with: paul woolford, deetron, tazz, terrence fixmer, brendon moeller, anthony shake shakir, john osborn, chris duckenfield, dj deep, joel alter, nick hoeppner, nyra, cedric maison, eric cloutier, ed davenport, harri, ernie, milton jackson, a sagittariun, jonas kopp, huxley, danny howells,... never learnt follows up the superb nyra >best of< release with this superb two-tracker from october & borai, who have previously teamed up for the shadowing brstl imprint, october as a solo artist is currently winning many a plaudit for his unique take on house and techno, with releases on skudge, simple, applepips and his own taanstafl imprint all causing a stir. in this release, we see two dubbed out, cosmic housers with >level abstain< being a skewed peak time cut and >vital ital rub< heading for the deeper floors. stay tuned…

number 3! dimitri from paris & dj rocca are back for good. their third release on gomma gonna be released in march. and again: funky disco infected modern house tracks. lets see where we get with this one here. check >pretty baby< feat. hard ton.

marcus mixx drops this jaw dropping follow up to last years use your mouth 2 luv me ep on uttu records. both versions of special creme are chicago house in its purest most original form, by the hands that created without makeup dont sleep!

the finding is the latest single from the cbs, other wise known as the world famous cuban brothers. this is their second single (misdemeanor jcity 001) to come off their eagerly awaited debuted artist album which is due out next year. the original is a funk filled odyssey which puts a smile on the face and causes the foot to tap of any listener! also on this package we are lucky enough to have two remixes. first up is the killer garage rub from the remix king doorly, backed up by another dance floor smasher from featurecast. this is a package and a half!

clone classic cuts serves another cult italo disco classic! gorgeous female vocals slapped on that lovely 80 s synthesizer/drum programming. this is one of those releases that easily makes it into the top 50 of all time greatest italo disco songs. produced by roberto ferrante (also known for his pinneaples project) and originally released on the obscure airport label in 1984. we managed to restore and re-master the original versions and the lovely paris mix. on top of the original versions we serve you a new re-rub by italian italo specialist bottin (eskimo, artifacts etc). bottin did a great job with a new crazy soundhack mix that cranks up the energy level and makes it more jackin. pretty amazing when you realize that these tracks are making people dance for 28 years now. more then enough reason for a proper re-release on high quality vinyl. enjoy!

emanating from japan, and discovered by erid d (of rub n tug fame), these re-edit masterclasses would never have gotten outside of their native market. luckily a helping hand from one of nycs most hyped party throwers has guaranteed a wider audience!
all the combis so far have sold out in a matter of days and are now exchanging hands for silly money. this release has another glorious duo of obscure but super high quality dancefloor friendly edits.

this is 2nd edition of remix single. the remixer of a side is our friend artist/dj in new york thomas bullock aka welcome strangers/rub n tug. thomas stripped down the much guitar sound and added trippy sounds, the result is like kraut rock version of original song. b side is instrument version of kuniyuki remix which is released on mule musiq 59. this vershion is more dj tool.

a true product of torontos thrillingly cosmopolitan grooving pot, this chinese-italian duo is quickly earning a rep for crafting highly effective acid tracks with just a hint of banger. they initially earned notice with their first ep, >vaporizer<, on this is music, before making fans out of some big names with these tracks, with brodinski championing >body acid< and forcing turbos a&r vibetrust to perk up their unbelievably jaded ears.
if you arent sold on the ontario-buzz, then maybe you will pay attention to two awesome remixes by the bombest bulgarian, kink. the deep mix is a lush, throbbing body-rub, and the acid version is a highlight-reel of peak time mayhem, already caned and charted by erol alkan and tiga. if nothing else, >body acid< is a vital reminder that acid goes into your body. thats just the way it works.
stamped white label, limited to 169 copies!

soul jazz records are releasing this latest studio one compilation which features non-step 100% stone-cold classic studio one killers! spanning 40 years of the legendary label, this album is a fitting tribute to clement >sir coxsone< dodd and is a who is who of jamaicaan reggae.

the black dog are a legendary live act whose ability to destroy venues and wreck soundsystems is undeniable. they blur the boundaries between djing and performance while possessing an excellent sense of where to take the crowd. live, they represent purist techno, which is also utterly crowd pleasing. on record, tbd are famous for delivering subtlety, emotion, and intellectual richness, as well as great tunes, but never in their career have they managed to convey the sheer visceral impact of their performances as on liber dogma. this album contrasts with last years extremely well-received ambient outings on music for real airports and the dadavistic orkestra collaboration with members of the psychick warriors of gaia. while none of the bands artistry and care has been lost, there is now a greater focus on a pure, and utterly exhilarating, vision of how techno can transform the dancefloor into a realm of complete pleasure.

brand new album featuring non-stop killer studio one cuts from the skatalites, heptones, lone ranger, horace andy and loads more. album comes in jewel case with slipcase style cd, limited edition gatefold heavyweight double vinyl and exclusive digital download from here. this is the first new studio one/soul jazz release in over 3 years and is being released to coincide with our forthcoming monster new deluxe hardback 12x12inch 200 page full colour book featuring hundreds of super classic and rare studio one sleeves.

italian producer simone fedi, hailing from tuscany, takes things to a whole new level on this third release on eskimo recordings. >bitter devotion< is a vocal pop gem with a balearic tinge, but its bittersweet vocals and the addictive melody will haunt you. for this tune fedi, a multi-instrumentalist with a knack for pop music and a soft spot for vintage gear, joined forces with a mysterious singer named lola rent, and this turns out to be a winning team.
bitter devotion comes with a rather spectacular remix package, ewan pearson (known from his remix work for goldfrapp, chemical brothers, hot chip, moby, franz ferdinand and depeche mode to name a few) gave it the royal treatment. as an additional treat, welcome stranger aka thomas bullock (rub n tug, laughing light of plenty, map of africa, whatever we want records) has indulged in a psychedelic >bitter devotion< dub, analogue and live... just the way we like it.

endless flight is happy to announce two fantastic artists collaboration release of dean meredith (aka chiken lips) & eric duncan (rub n tug). a side, main version of zoo-ma-city is jackin chicago house style track with a female voice sample. it s all around for house heads. b side is a dj tool beat version of a unique acid acapella.

iberian records feature on their seventh release an ep from migrant (aka 23hz) who comes with three slabs of soundsystem funk and groovy vibes. >limbic sistim< kicks off proceedings with a building arrangement into a catchy vocal lick – all underpinned with tight beats and warm subs. >acid sumatra< works on a similar tip but ups the tribal and percussive pressure on a deeper insistent rub. whilst >pipe club< brings some classic two-steppy flavours into the mix but cleverly reinforced with massive sub weight. these three tunes are taken from migrants forthcoming album, also entitled >exit plan<. more bass n groove from the lisbon and barcelona based label that should find favour with the deeper end of both dubstep and uk funky scenes.’ early support by scratcha dva, ghosts on tape, kid606, chrissy muderbot, cardopusher, slackk, mesak, phaeleh, deville, bunzer0, throwing snow.

the band recorded cadenza last summer locked in a salford basement experimenting and stretching their songs into new and unexpected shapes. produced by brendan williams and phil bulleyment they’ve created an album that, whilst drawing on the eccentricities of sparks, the piano methods of steve reich and the unhinged prog-pop of the cardiacs, has at its heart a real pop pulse.

>trickski verkürzen die wartezeit auf ihr demnächst erscheinendes neues album. yannick labbé und daniel >stoerte< becker schütteln mit >wilderness< einen dieser langsamen und deepen funk-house-tracks aus dem Ärmel, wie nur trickski sie hinbekommen. komplettiert wird diese großartige maxi durch remixe von genius of time, soulphiction und jef k.

surprising release by gerd on the basement series with an old classic themed techno track he found on a dusty dat tape while archiving some old recordings. somehow a traditional techno track with metalic basslines, stellar string sounds and retro futuristic vocals with a classic theme... time & space. the original slower paced version did get an reshape/makeover that gives it a 2011 update that will be a standard record in the box for many! remixers on duty are rotterdams duplex duo who are back in business and deliver two remixes. timeless tracks that will stand out between all dj tools!

still going is the combination of two nyc dance music leaders eric dunks & duncan of rub & tug and olivier spencer of manthraxx and mr. negative. even before its release, >still going theme< has been hailed by many top djs around the world and has been featured in prins thomas essential mix for the bbc?s radio 1. the track will soon be featured on the upcoming force of nature mix on mule musiq, as well as james murphy and pat mahoneys (lcd soundsystem) fabric live mix.

luv jam - better known as andy cole - made his name through outings on we play house and lany recordings, and >mature oak< finds him in fine form, an epic, atmospheric track poised on a bed of analog synths and warm pads, driven by galloping drum mechanics that gradually give way to its climax, an irresistibly squelchy acid bassline that marks it as one of coles most memorable productions to date. on the flipside we get treated to cottams first ever remix. cottam has made an impeccable name for himself, with his signature colourful series of untitled 12s and a contribution to the story imprint. true to his roots, cottams re-rub of >mature oak< is a slo-mo, motorik chugger that makes excellent use of the originals acid line while taking the whole track a step further. its a proper heads down affair that begs for a soundsystem loud enough to do it justice. limited vinyl pressing of 444 copies – hand stamped and numbered. special artwork by pedro carvalho de almeida.

the rhythm odyssey is dean meredith of chicken lips and bizarre inc fame. >move groove< draws on the wealth of experience dean has in creating spine tingling house music. this club banger has all the hallmarks of classic (ware)house - a relentless piano riff teases an overweight electronic bass, topped off with dean?s trademark, crisp chi-town drums. eric duncan aka dr dunks of rub & tug fame and hot new talent vermin step up to the remix challenge. eric d goes for the disco break approach. he inserts riffs at will and brings an nyc block party feel to the cut. vermin warms up his trusted 808 to spice up the proceedings with a heavy interpretation of this track

the energetic >coconut coast< is an awesome example of whats coming from oriol, and he has bought some remixers along for the party too. faltydl brings the tempo down and gives the track a strange off key shuffling rub thats reminiscent of theo parrish at his oddest. mike paradinas in his jake slazenger guize, does a mix of >memories< thats almost funky house, mixed with big rubbery jazz chords and classy diva vocal samples. shortstuff takes >memories< and draws it into strange new shapes over stiff beats.

the fourth release of >lets get lost< which is started by mule musiq and force of natures kza. this new release is by thomas bullock aka rub n tug/map of africa/welcome stranger. i guess the introduction about him is not necessary. on the a side, thomas edited the disco version of jolene by olivia newtone-john (original is country rock from dolly parton 1974). on the other side,its a rework of >zz top-i wanna drive you home < . this rework is like a thomass original production.you can comparevery easily with map of africa or his another moniker. both tracks are very cool rock oriented disco stuff. dont miss this rare thomas s edit release
