sex tags mania warehouse find! this might not be one of those popular ware house finds you run into these days, but still, from a storage of a friend of a friend this got dug out. almost brand new but never sold in any amount - a german-french(?) 12 as great as the summer. straight to the b, you know that track you hear, not on any given sunday, but only the exeptionally good ones, the track that sonically floats around, though maybe being to euphoric, still gathers everybody in the area to some sort of silent agreement of peace. usually these musical pieces are found as single items on flee markets if you re a proper digger or have straight out beginners luck. maybe the world has turned up side down, because this beauty has german lyrics (with an instrumental following).

>the fall of the empire< is a tough and unyielding release that continues both pfirter and mindtrip s run of form. >the fall of the empire is imminent< is raw, powerful and tightly wound. it holds an almost familiar sound, something that brings memories of techno from years gone by, but with the added depth, intricacy and attention to details that juan pablo pfirter lends to all his productions. markus suckut remixes on mt-02 and brings his stripped sound to his rework of >multiverse<. keeping things simplistic and functional, markus finds the groove, toying with bass throughout the track and letting the loop run for near seven minutes, gently tweaking fx and eq in the light-handed and tender manner he become known for.

two new suprawax releases by eduardo de la calle. the four tracks on offer here bear testimony to de la calles search for the perfect loop. they are hypnotic grooves, almost entirely devoid of arrangement in a classical sense. but the tracks are not static. they suck you in by means of constant modulations, build free flowing structures of their own, hints of peaks emerging at the mercy of the low frequency oscillators cleverly set phase relationships. these tracks do not need the in-your-face kick drums and squashed dynamics of the brickwall generation. by leaving space, they work on a different level than solely sound pressure emanated. the simple, repetitive structure coupled with the unhasty development find their way into the dancer’s brain. moving your mind—your ass to follow suit. all records have been pressed in a run of 400 copies and come in inside-out natural cardboard sleeves. no represses are planned at present.
