night drive music bag for 30x 12ich vinyl or stuff for school or office

dj-support by adam beyer, alexi delano, paco osuna!! on his 2nd ep on aesthetik brian james shows his true colours. dark, deep and stripped down techno with a solid old school, almost chicago-esque feel to it. rubber doll instantly grabs you through its simplicity and efficiency. pulsating beats, a mental bassline with a slight bleepy feel to it. a true techno dj s delight. madrid s techno maestro xpansul turns rubber doll into a harder edged techno stomper. edgy technoid sounds and xpansul s trademark dark rhythmic craziness makes this track essential to any self-respecting techno jock! panic in detroit is again a typical brian james throbbing techno piece for when dancefloors go into >mental mode<. bubbling custard takes a more experimental direction, reminiscent of early dark model 500 tracks, but jacked up in brian s very own wickedness.

vocal house, incl. harlem hustlers mixes, fish n chips mix and soul seekerz old school dub!!

following their big success with the felix remake dont you want me last year, this time they worked on this classic by leila k.

played by: richie hawtin, dj hell, dubfire, monika kruse, onur Özer, gabriel ananda, karotte, italoboyz, dominik eulberg, gregor tresher , chris liebing, d. ramirez, sebastian leger etc... the follow up to >elements 1of 2< starts with >wind<, a strong epic old school monster of an acid track, with a cool chicago flavour, reminiscent of lil louis, with cool ups and downs, that have set the dance floors on fire around the world. >earth< the flipside track is a stripped down mover, quite drugged out and shivering in itself, having a much stronger new school touch to it. it is as bass heavy as we have experienced with all of the releases of butch

uncle o is someone we have an unlimited respect for, here at im a clich. a restless record digger with an insane record collection, a resident dj at the mythical bains douches club in paris at its golden era (82-85), a graphic designer for james white, omd, the cure, a certain ratio as they were touring in france, and later part of the emerging french hip hop scene (he even appeared on vocals on the seminal french hit h.i.p h.o.p, french people will know what it s about!). he produced occasionnal instrumentals for french hip hop bands like assassin, released a few cult records as jackos and organised some of the best parties in paris, the toxic nights.

dopplerefekt-like electro tracks !! a unique collaboration between two electro legends. the master and pioneer of old school electro meets swedens famous electro king for a dark n deep electro excursion into the land of booming 808 s and analogue synths. two continents, two minds, two versions. also bonus beats by the lover, and a faceless mind reconstruction

this ep is all new school techno, side a brings >expanding<, which is a 11 minutes epic builder, coming in two parts. lush hypnotic synth galore, and be warned! don’t underestimate the bassline in 2nd part. >contracting< goes more uptempo and funky with strong club appeal

the album title track >my manifest< shows, that marco stays true to his love for house chords. old school riffs meet energy loaded beats and his dark self-spoken manifest and reveal a new, more technoid face of marc o tool. >the grail< however shows, that he also still knows how to embed harmonies in a club outfit. driving rhythms reminding of the old o tool days, get alternated by an emotional piano breakdown, to finally find their way back into the floating monotony

new school deephouse at its best!! big with cassy, the oslo crew, ripperton, gerd janson, sascha dive...

the 3rd release by scott grooves on his natural midi label, this is scotts first ever ep and color vinyl release. all 4 tracks possess a different mood and distinct raw edge, which plays well on this well balanced ep.track 1 dark blu speaks for itself, simply stated and deeply enriched. the relentless melody never lets go of the groove and the groove never lets go the melody. everything in this track harmonizes together perfectly.track 2 dna definitely disturbs the peace with vintage analog synth sounds. the old school sounding vocal sample echoes thruout the track that >detroit needs analog records< take a listen and decide if that echoes true!track 3 >it doesnt all have to be techy< as the title suggest there is know >techyness< here, its all about a deeply stormin groove that is enriched with warm melodic keys and a lovely guitar, yes i said guitar that altogether creates a feelin thats organic but not boring. track 4 decimalquivers in and out with a fm gritty synth stab, complete with minimal drums or as scott calls them >drims< which is the term scott uses for minimal drums. also present is a deep pad sound that brews slowly like an eruption. co-produced by panther, a name you will hear more about in the future

the chart buster martin solveig was glad when his roman friend and colleague lorenzo rumi called upon him to return to the roots of house music, starting from the early, glorious chicago scenario and its immediate and infectious groove. so far away came to life, as an impulse with only 2 days of hectic studio session and a few liters of coffee. the guys worked on a stricltly old school basis, then added a full vocal and new elements to bring the fine charme of todays house, turning so far away in a contemporary composition rich of surprises and thrilling breaks. the performance of australian soul singer rachel claudio gives a touch of attitude with passionates and unforgettable vocals. definitely another epic stone in the b2f wall!

third album young desire, again captures the fervour witnessed on lapkos live shows. taking in themes of vulnerability and anxiety beneath hardened exteriors, aching feelings, pressure and confusion, the album is a mental trip back to the schoolyard, where tough guy antics and leather armor cant hide the convulsions underneath. theres new depth and dynamic in the bands expression, fitting for a gang of seasoned rock musicians. these two art school dropouts and metal worker have come a long way from harjavalta (though they still gather there to rehearse and play) and have evolved as a band and as friends.

incl tape , very ltd pack ... a new little side project for southern outpost aptly called southern outpost special projects. setup to release great music, in limited editions, from all genres in non standard formats, no digital.. we are going old school with this stuff! first release is by san francisco native bvdub (styrax/ nightdrive/ 2600 and his own quietus label). if you know his music, you’ll know that this release is going to be dubby and deep!

bassline garage version of the ragga toxic that was around last year

mo rotation is the next step in the history of westpark units 80s funk influences they started with blaxrotation and fits well within the sound of today! always sexy, dope, deep & dubby. proper thang is as deep as jeep and builds up in the typical westpark unit style with some demanding but tricky drumpatterns and a wicked bassline. to surprise, the duo added some old school snippets into the drop, put them into a different context and present a jewel of a bangin deep house tune with one of the most enthusiastic moments when the beats come back in. mo rotation sets up with just some shakers, a demanding percussion loop, a booming bass and needs almost 5 minutes to get things started. when the bassdrum finally drops in, the club is already near ecstasy while the music takes a small step from 1983 to 2008 and a deep masterpiece

samuel rouanet aka reynold aka duplex 100 (together with phil stumpf) also boss of trenton is releasing here his first full ep on his own label. after a year of serious boredom when it comes to techno music and especially what is the so called >minimal< sound, he decided to release what is his own vision of dance music. >poison in my mind< has a strong bass line and triplets chords that drives you while the melody comes in and out. >blue steel< is more of an old school anthem with strings and detroit vibes. >craft<“ is what reynold does the best, electro deep cinematographic tune, close to the work he did on persona with his >my favorite film< album. >like it or leave it

now up to its third release, soul science recordings continues to deliver high quality, soulful, deep electronic dance music with joel harrisons latest: high voltage. commencing with the original mix, this track does exactly what it says on the tin delivering electrifying, pumping,deep, nu school house. taking sparse electro bleeps as an introduction, the environment starts out building steadily with increasing urgency. utilising sweet and cleverly processed vocal samples as motifs, the track develops into a full on dancefloor mover, complete with thumping kicks, fat chord stabs (for fans of the original detroit masters) and a bouncing off kilter bassline - something of a harrison specialism... wearing his influences proudly on his sleeve, joel has created another sublime electronic deep house track for fans of spirit catcher, john tejada, freerange records and beyond...

jon gurd is back on a solo project, with the usual jon gurd style of using old school rave sounds with a tech and groovy combination that works well on the cooler dancefloors. tom neville - really good stuff. im playing both tracks but grass rots is probably my favourite. thanks slam! co / orde meikle: grass roots – very glichisco – quite intense, the chimes – love the groove – old skool stabs are nice kos: i am really into the chimes record. solid track and i love the old skool riff. definitely gonna play. james talk: the chimes is class mate, big room action

back in stock.. great old school jacking techno trax by terrace

incl argy remix !! tokyo s rising star ryo murakami has already put his diverse, electronic sound on the map with the >rise< ep on dessous last year, and received great praise for his track >my soul<, snapped up by steve bug for the fabric mix series, which was piled high with atmosphere and dark, club energy. his next 12 includes two new tracks, the title cut being >down the sky<, cooly influenced by old school house, but also more recent european forays into night music. ryo demonstrates a heavy aptitude for stripped down futurism, with staccato, jilted beats, joined by layers of padded synth structures, looming somewhere between light and darkness. the b side, ‚coke‘ (no questions asked) welcomes another one of ryo‘s extended journeys, this time a stronger, peak time groove which never lets off, and builds around layers of spaced out, pitching fx. brain-tingling pitching synths heat things up, before laying down a super-funk hook that melts on top of the beats irresistibly. ryo then leads us head-first into a series of spac d out, jacked-up movements, characterised by risque, feminine vocal snippets. poker flat‘s young greek maestro, argy, creates a stunning hi-tech remix of ‚down the sky,‘ complete with mesmeric dub influenced chord stabs and tripped out washes of delay. once again carrying on the vibe of the original, but twisting it into an altogether different beast, argy takes ryo‘s warm synth stabs and shapes the remix into a slow paced yet pumping club tool.

wiggles nathan coles teams up with old school producer pete bones for this massive 2 tracker

this is a couple of nice remixes of the cool smoke & mirrors track of marc almond and starcluster (taken from the aube 03). marc almond needs no introduction... after working with many great producers he teamed up with roland faber (s express and many other projects) and kai ludeling (divider) for some nu school high energy disco. this is a track that brings up the best memories of the pet shop boys, new order and ofcourse soft cell. this is one big anthem for the gay clubs, nu disco aficionados and brittish soccer hooligans who want to rave on some extremely well produced big sounding dance music! highly limited vinyl edition!!

supported by tom clark, sasse, 2000 and one, woody, paolo martini, 3 channels, adultnapper, dj naughty, garnier and many more.. mindforce is an extra special release we have put together for you. it features an excellent remix by kabale und liebe who is currently causing a big stir amongst the house community with his deep and dark minimal groovers, needless to mention his big hit mumbling yeah that was in the charts of almost every dj and became one of the key tracks last year. also his upcoming productions on the dutch remote area label are amongst our favourite tracks so we couldn’t resist to ask this guy to do an interpretation of a special track we made. mindforce is a bit different to the rest of the dirt crew output, we wanted to make a more reduced grooving dj tool that is still old school but on the other hand contains an hypnotic feel that is more likely to be found in current minimal productions

coma sind nu- rave und old school-techno, achtziger-pop und nuller-moderne, in innigster umarmung. sie geben den falschen hypes die richtige antwort und elektronischer tanzmusik neue impulse, stimmen und gefühle

four track ep from this young up & coming producer from zurich. his sound is highly influenced by old school detroit techno and vintage chicago house. warm, melancholic and deep house and techno that goes beyond the beat.

incl hot d.i.m. remix !! the cooperation between dance experts luuk cox and jimmy dewit became a term in a very short time. they proudly present their new single, >heartccore<. this is a school example of a direct hit, the title matches the music perfectly.

in the year of punk 1977, the jams exploded onto the music scene with this seminal debut album. the raw, unfettered aggression of the bands approach was well in keeping with the spirit of the times, but the heart of their songs and sound lay in the mod movement of the mid 60s. singer/guitarist paul weller comes off like a cross between joe strummer and the young pete townshend, bashing unreservedly through slow down, one of the r&b tunes that inspired the original mods. weller extols the virtues of frenzied dancing and nonconformist youth culture over the raging three chord attack of bassist bruce foxton and drummer rick buckler. the pure punk insouciance of his words and delivery is a perfect match for the raging but hooky arrangements, which basically consisted of the band walking into the studio and blazing through their live set. rickenbacker guitars never sounded so thick, and skinny ties never seemed less geeky.
