the third record by vienna-based label secret crunch is ready to be unleashed. this time with various artists from all over europe.

the latest compilation from dutch imprint wolfskuil records offers up three more secret weapons continuing the series with four artists already well at home on the label.as the title suggests, each track is a heavy-hitter, but as a whole this release acts as a showcase exposing three very different approaches to peak-time techno.

spring has sprung... which means bbq season is here! our annual grill-orientated tour is in full swing and as no dirtybird bbq would be complete without some tunes, this year s soundtrack is dirtybird bbq: secret ingredients . we kept it stacked just like our bbq plate, with music from dirtybird shiba san & will clarke, dj glen, sébastien v and seumas norv.

the secret initiative has been cloaked in secrecy since it’s inception in 2009.
over the past 8 years there has been a lot of speculation on who the artist(s) is/are behind this project. is it a collective of artists or a solo artist still remains to be answered. the secret initiative is a multi styled project ranging across the spectrum of acid techno, dub techno, hard techno & ebm mostly done in a 1990’s flavor but with a modern day punchy production sound. here on the latest release we have two peak time dance floor killers. “synesthete” a dark track-y techno climax-er with a whisper vocal sample repeating “i see the music, i hear the light” which builds into a monster of a track. on the flip side is the hard but hypnotic “return to mcmxc” which pays hommage to the 1990 frankfurt technoclub/dorian gray ebm techno sound.

the secret squirrels are non-stop in their search for irresistible, raw and tracky disco-tinged grooves that are primed and ready to slay your dance floors. the first offering here works the chunkier and funkier side of the woods, while the flip gets all late night, dirty and ecstatic on you. don t feed the animals when you can make them dance.

they could do weird edits or make eastern influenced dance music, collect gear and sit home or adapt library music for the dance floors. or they could get together and make the secret weapon. it doesn t really matter who they are and it doesn t really matter that it s just a demo, luckily rescued on a usb stick before their hd failed, what does matter is that it always rocks the party.

katsunori sawa has been with the label for pretty much four years now with solo projects as well as joint ventures (besides the aforementioned bokeh, he’s also part of steven porter with his brother in arms yuji kondo with whom he also runs their own 10 label). his musical career reaches back another few years when he was writing and producing under eoc (short for enormous o clock), including an album for ai records.

after a longer than usual break gamm enterprises is back on black plastic but more important... we got a brand new design! for those who don t know gamm has been delivering dance music of the blacker kind for almost 15 years but always with the same look. basically, a visual facelift was long overdue. but we think you ll feel it as much as we do and it really works beautifully with our musical ideology. so, for the (new) premier release we got an incognito producer that is rumoured to come from a small town in mexico. having finally agreed for a brief skype call he appeared wearing none other than a bright luchador mask and giving one-word answers with a strong mexican accent. no matter how convincing that was we still can t help thinking his name sounds pretty close to another producer that is to put it mildly, pretty hyped at the moment. musically the ep is ranging from percussive carnival disco (carnival in manchester) to brazilian fusion grooves (jazz in italics) and independent disco/funk (dues paid fast). either way you ll definitely find something that will work your party. gamm is back and back with musical vengeance!

kian t, a self-confessed analogue synth addict, steps up for the 6th secret reels release and with an ep on big bait already under his belt and one forthcoming on toy tonics, 2016 is looking like a vintage year for this italian producer. this ep is all about tough beats, warm & punchy synth lines and a few dusty vinyl samples thrown in for good measure. kian s production values are always on point, and these 3 tracks are no exception, instantly standing out from the crowd. on remix duties is man of the moment daniel leseman. his solo productions and remixes are firm favourites with a vast swathe of top djs. he is also one half of fouk, alongside junktion, who have absolutely taken over recently with releases on heist, razor-n-tape, house of disco and not to mention their own label outplay. daniel turns the tough syncopated beats of flughafen into a shimmering, funk-laden piece of house.

some say red squirrels are more peaceful.
you can judge for yourself.
this one speaks of love and then gets dirty on the flip side. both cuts are loud and proud. yet more top notch chopping for discotheques by those masters of the edit, the secret squirrels.

secret crunch is a label fresh out of the oven run by fellow vienna-based artists roman rauch and moony me. both musicaly rooted in hiphop, soul, funk and disco and expressing themselves mainly through house music, it was just a matter of time until they first colaborated together. thoughts about releasing their output together through an own label came naturally soon after. the first release of secret crunch is a pure collaboration between them plus two additional remixes – one by gnork and another by medlar & ishmael

drawing its energy from the rapid waters of the bio bio river and its grace from viña del mar’s golden sand, a secret society was born. and with its first release we get to feel this newborn record label’s mission: to bring together contrasts and smoothly harmonise them. extending on the whole a side we find sit’ near jam, provocative on all our perception levels, with sudden rhythm changes yet still loyal to its silky soft percussion. on the flip side funk e and luc ringeisen collaboration your house proposes a rough and ruthless bassline, high paced by uber obsessive hi hats and subtly softened by dreamy melodic bubbles. and how to better close this release than placing our states of mind into juice and bread, an enigmatic high altitude minimal landscape imagined by cleymoore and joaquin lledoo, filled up with buzzing sounds and washed away by strange windy loops. so this is it! secret society chile revelled its plans to the world: stay true to its chilean roots and expand its visions to far outer-lands.

the secret squirrels continue to assault the dance floor and make you want to you to dance with two more deadly reworks.
on this 11th episode they continue to disrespect boundaries as they criss-cross from disco to italo to house music in order to do their dirty deeds. cut loud for maximum dj impact.

eine traumhaft mäandernde begegnung von clicks & cuts mit krautrock. die vier tracks von “the secret garden” basieren auf dem soundtrack für eine gleichnamige, 21-minütige videoarbeit der münchener künstlerin nana dix, die im gegenzug das artwork für die ep gestaltet hat.

after coming with a pretty great electronic soft jazz number on the first release, distant works begins to define the mission behind the label with the second offering-a synth, italo-esque 5-cut ep that would only come from somewhere in the netherlands these days. the label bosses are clearly up to go to distant places to deliver the sounds. it s a very impressive statement and raises our interest on future releases.

another great intangible record in the rebound. this time its the 1996 release form james sims aka index 968, called * secret fantasy*.
all tracks are re-mastered and on top we can present you an unreleased remix from label boss, mr. terrence parker!

we got together so many wonderful tracks, we had to put out the next secret weapons on double 12inch again. various artists plus various styles we love...get your own idea.

cosmica music is a new vinyl only / limited press label from argentina.

the three tracks travel in many different directions. speaking directly to all the dreamers, the result is a surprising cross-over in which synthesized european music gets injected by imaginary tropical visions. the record is opening with the inner mind percussive ambient « chekema », an animistic incantation that will please all those who see parties as modern ritual gatherings. the jazzy wave of « get enough » cracks open the b-side. it’s a foggy street jam in which the cold cr-68 rhythm balances perfectly with the warm organ chords of the crumar. closing things off is the spectral reggae song “love so high”, a desperate cry from a polar explorer stranded on an iceberg drifting towards the carribean. heartbreaking.

more cut up, heavy dance floor tackle that criss-crosses the boundaries of proto-house and disco from those anonymous edit masters the secret squirrels. tracky as hell and cut loud for impact, the squirrels make no apologies for taking aim directly at the dance floor. no nonsense - devastation guaranteed!

fresh from his collaborative ep with loz goddard on dirt crew, harry wolfman brings his inimitable style to secret reels with a perfect summer 3 tracker.
