just in time for summer, pampa issued aimlessness, the long-awaited new album from dntel aka los angeles producer jimmy tamborello. his latest electronic suite brought forth stronger leanings toward house grooves, building upon the pop and idm approaches he explored earlier in his career as half of the postal service and a member of figurine - with a healthy dose of pampa otherworldliness on top. now, robag wruhme steps in and recontextualizes two aimlessness cuts for a remix ep. wruhme is already a beloved member of dj koze’s extended family, having released the full-length thora vukk about one year ago, which was deemed another success for both him and pampa” in resident advisors four-star review. first up is robags kloff mottüré mix of bright night, a starry-eyed transformation of dntels work that twinkles like fireflies in the clear midnight sky.with symphonic splashes, playful pitter-patters and a tranquil breakdown, it sounds a bit like teenage toads skinny-dipping amongst the lilypads. next up, robag finds inspiration in dntels jitters,not once but twice: the marf labo mix takes the title quite literally,offering a jittery breakbeat interpretation with a metallic angel chorus swirling over the haphazard beats. finally, on the flip side,the emmens worsch mix brings things more closely aligned with the grooving, heartfelt house thump that pampa has engendered. its the eps most dj-friendly cut, while at the same time showing off robags gentle production touches and letting tamborellos sweet, subdued voice shine through.

mit >life is full of possibities< von 2001 wurde dntel zu einer der wichtigsten figuren der glitch-szene, die der elektronischen musik eine neue dynamik und komplexität verlieh. unvergessliche songs wie >anywhere anyone< verschafften ihm eine treue fan-schar. seit dieser zeit sinnierte dntel, der mit bürgerlichem namen jimmy tamborello heißt, in zahllosen veröffentlichungen gefühlswelten und stimmungen nach. als teil von figurine entwickelte er einen mal anmutig-bezaubernden, mal irrwitzig-albernen techno-pop-sound. mit ben gibbard von death cab for cutie gründete er postal service, deren nummer such great heights wurde vom rolling stone unter die hundert wichtigsten songs des vergangenen jahrzehnts gewählt. dass tamborello als einziger electronic-act des nirvana-labels sub pop gesignt wurde, war zwar eine kleine sensation, rückte ihn aber aus dem blickfeld seiner europäischen fans. schon in den ersten momenten versetzt einen aimlessness mitten in den dntel-kosmos. von van dyke parks bis pavement, von den dead kennedys bis zu dr. dre hat popmusik aus kalifornien durch ihre emotionale abgründigkeit fasziniert. genauso zieht uns dntel in einen unwahrscheinlichen strudel aus irisierend schönen melodien und noch nie gehörten elektronischen klängen.

newcomer italian label traxx underground calls on the service of kool vibe, a veteran record collector & clubber from paris who, after a well-received debut release on my love is underground, is back to offer four tracks produced with the steady hand of someone who knows his way around a house tune. as announced in the title of this ep record, mr. vibe continues to spread the vibe, this 90s house vibe made of tough drums, bumpin basslines, warm chords and chopped vocals. kool vibe has clearly been nurtured by all that was good about deep and garage house coming from new york and new jersey back in the 90s and he proves it again with this second release

stefan goldmanns adem finally brings a new concept of handling melodies to the world of house and techno. pushy synths tuned to arabian intervals, playfully pitch bent around one repeated note that sticks to the kick as if its life depends on it. its as if a parallel universes acid has been invented in some lunatic asylum in tirana. this primitive melody is as alienatingly synthetic as it is offensively brain-dissolving. in the hands of a dj, adem” is like the captagon formula in the hands of the bulgarian secret service: many deaths, big bucks. chalga, tallava, manele - call it anything. the b-side’s rigid chain is as detuned, yet strictly limited to a rogue off-beat bassline pumping in between metallic house drums. thats it.

the two monkey guys are very happy to present their first longplayer. after a successful year 2011 and a massive output they want to show the world whats also going on in their mind. happy body music is not only for the dancefloor. of course youll find some techy, housy floorkillers on the lp but also tracks from the deeper techno side and a little sorted stuff from the monkey roots... hip hop and big beat! so please come in, lean back, take a coffee and have a listen to the colourful monkeyworld

the latest instalment in the ever-evolving tale of circus company comes from a partnership that has already borne plenty of tightly honed dancefloor fruit, although never before for our merry band of performers and freaks. marc schneiders service to european house music runs deep. as well as steering the course of the mega-distributor wordandsound, marc has been steadily appearing on releases and remixes for new kanada, metamorphic, einmaliens and many more over the years. however marcs studio collaborations with ralf schmidt are fast becoming his most celebrated output. ralfs aera project is already being loudly championed by the most critical tastemakers in the business, including glowing praise from resident advisor and fact magazine for his unique and impeccably crafted tracks on his own aleph music label. after a string of successful remixes, the pair consummate their shared passion with this strong, focused three-tracker that makes a space for itself in the club-ready end of the circus company record bag. what on the surface may seem like straight-up dj friendly cuts soon reveal their hidden depths. whispers of techno melodies and textures hum away under the surface, while those with keen ears will pick up the sneaky tributes to uk rave culture that aera is known for sprinkling over his tracks. primarily though, these tracks gracefully tread the line between functionality and flair, leaving you with another glorious selection of imaginative house music with that inimitable circus co. stamp on it.

played by dj karotte !!! sammys debut on goodvibe records is an interesting and solid debut. 5 tracks, 4 on vinyl and 1 bonus digital, made with a strong >dance< attitude inside. inspiration came to sammy from his daily life. bad things do happen. how we respond to them define the quality of our life. sammys strengths as a producer is the way he employs everything he does in service of a deep and groovy mood. one can choose to sit in perpetual sadness, immobilized by the gravity of everyday losses, or can choose to rise from the pain and treasure life as it is.

nice price deal !!! prinzhorn dance school announce their return with new single – >seed, crop, harvest.< we havent heard a thing from tobin prinz and suzi horn for three years (their debut lp was released on dfa back in 2007) but theyve been far from work-shy. they toured extensively, then came home and built their own bespoke recording studio (the red shed) – and learned how to use it. time consuming endeavors which saw them drop off the music radar. which might just explain the title of the equally charged b-side >off the radar, off the system<. in their own words: >weve been busy. just not busy making records. you have to live too. you can only write so many songs about motorway service stations and airports<. they recorded and mixed both songs themselves in the red shed, with bob weston taking on mastering duties. …prinzhorn dance school are back! and dfa could not be more proud

michigan central station built in 1913 for the michigan central railroad, was detroit, michigans passenger rail depot from its opening in 1913 until the discontinuance of amtrak service on january 6, 1988. at the time of its construction, it was the tallest rail station in the world. the building, located in the corktown district of detroit still stands today, though it remains unoccupied. restoration projects and plans have gone as far as the negotiation process, but none have come to fruition. spread throughout the city of detroit and its surrounding metropolitan area, the decay of once magnificent buildings during the industrial revolution and automobile era now cast a shadow of despair on a once flourishing city. these monuments of achievement now lay barren and forsaken by city government. infrastructural restoration and city development are fundamental elements in detroits recovery, and the recovery of cities worldwide. it is time for revival in our cities, but first, in our souls. the michigan central station ep is a platform for this change.

mikel smith has provided a stable and fresh pool of vinyl for the detroit area for the last 14 years. his store has had its part in keeping together the always evolving network of detroit artists and their events. the detroit threads record label has been erected to celebrate those individuals that have gone above and beyond the call of duty in the service of detroit. it celebrates the positive and forward thinking artists that push the envelope of the detroit sound. detroit threads has and will always be a sanctuary for new ideas and concepts.

uk house music and disco superhero rob mello has been instrumental in shaping the evolution of the uk sound since way back when. through labels like classic, luxury service and the way ahead of its time disco elements series on azuli in the 90s, not to mention countless innovative remixes and collaborations, his production output has shone out like a supernova for well over a decade. this is a return to songwriting, to tracks with longevity and a timelessness which transcends forgettable vogues. butterfly is the debut release from this dynamic quattro known as beulah heights - three producers/writers and one singer. a dream team collaboration between royal college of music and child prodigy lyn goddard, dj/producer and film scorer rob mello, producer/dj nathan boddy aka the illustrious office gossip and the amazing vocal talent of singer katie beadle. so here we have it, the majestic first release on beulah heights. a slowly pulsating monster of a cut, shot through with a futuristically executed homage to early 80s productions and more than enough girth to guarantee a powerful response from the floor. already road tested to rapturous response, this is an absolute beauty.

two of italys most formidable electrosonic programmers, composite profuse & kobol electronics were handpicked by veteran covert intelligence agent wilhelm von erwache to decode the encrypted archives of sismi, the italian secret service, and bring to life these clandestine events onto a 12 inch vinyl disk. on the a side, composite profuse (minimal rome, bunker) uncovers his tracks, blackfriars bridge & patience and charcoals and sets them to an ominous electro soundtrack that his name is synonymous for. the b side sees kobol electronics (minimal rome) deliver two sonic binary programs, code01 & code10 that will devastate both internetworks and dancefloors worldwide.

nice price deal !!! the songs on yachts debut album see mystery lights from the bouncy, burbling you cant take it with you screed the afterlife (which plays like a less spastic companion piece to the mae shis run to your grave) to the roller rink ready vocoder vocals of im in love with a ripper represent yacht at their most poppy. its a collection of stone jams that finds the band finally as hellbent on experimenting and expanding the boundaries of its sonic scope as it is on having fun. built on electronic foundations laser effects, skittering computerized beats, and spacey synth lines (or guitar riffs that have been tuned or distorted to sound like synths) these new songs are giddy with creative freedom while remaining tethered in service of their melodies. the vocal melodies are bright and buoyant, but delivered (by either band member, or in unison) in a chanted, oftentimes detached monotone that plays up the repetitive lyrics mantra like feel and adds a welcome undercurrent of slacker cool to their otherwise sugary optimism.

unreleased versions plus bonus track hotel room service!!

the story of steppah huntah is the story of two musicians - steven j, a bass player and oless t, a pianist, and a chance meeting at a strasbourg jazz club one autumn evening in 2002. the duo were soon inspired to work together to fuse their love for jazz, afrobeat & funk in the service of a new driven sound, powered by the seemingly endless possibilities offered by new computer technology. instinctively, the musicians looked west to the emerging beat and kind of jazz style, deeply influenced in their musical experimentation by pioneers such as incognito, talking loud label. remix made by japanese producer and dj whos made a name for himself worldwide in the last few years is mitsu the beats. that makes his beats very original & unique & not belonging to any one kind of music.

dj support: 2000 and one, karotte, tobi neumann, onur Özer, matthias tanzmann, ali schwarz from tiefscwarz... the four tracks on >Études Électroniques< find luciano invigorated and inspired, putting his talents into the service of dancefloors at their most delirious. with its delicate skip and its slow sunrise flare, >montana< opens the record on a blissful note, calm and suffused with light. a hollow bass tone puffs away like a glassblower as brittle rhythmic patterns spin round and round. swelling and drifting, weightless and iridescent, it feels like chasing dawn in a hot-air balloon. >fochedrem< eases off the throttle and cracks an ear-to-ear grin. a stubby one-note bass line beats out a kind of cartoon funk as the answering riff splinters and shapeshifts between cowbell, organ and piano. its as slippery as the deck of a storm-tossed boat. >masalla< features liquid congas and feathered metallic details that stand on end like magnetic shavings. laid-back and polyrhythmic, its a future latin maysterpiece

public service message: from the pale horizon of the calm world, here emerges critical tension. product of his society, henry the white collar goes through a crisis. today henry is nervous, negotiating the heave and shove between fear and his uncontrolable urges, and this is his music when he does. we, the producers, are his fantasy. does it hurt or is it good? can you make him relieve his debt? after two releases on sound of barclay, and a hit (sink) on yvan smagghes compilation (suck my deck) released on react, and the famous cover of lios amoureux solitaires featuring jennifer cardini on kill the dj, henry is back with a dodgy 10 inch no punk, no electro - this is wobble

supported by djs like punks jump up (kitsuné), munk (gomma), radioclit (uk) after releasing hyped 7inch singles with klaxons and kleerup ft. robyn risky dazzle is very proud to announce the release of this harlem bomb. harlem is a stockholm duo that consists of johan skugge and martin thomasson, they have previously released records on gramme and service and have been championed by tiga among others. this techno acid anthem is one of the most defining dancefloor 12inch singles of the moment. genre destroying, fierce and rocking, >cat scratch< is a pumped up 303 stomper with a demented acid line that hauntingly stalks the listener as the relentless beat is built up and broken down. much in the same way as mmms >donna< did in the late 90s, >cat scratch< takes back dance music to its raw, dirty basics. on the flip side, >kidney shot< pushes the noisy whereabouts of the a-side one step further. technoid and funky, it is bound to set the dancefloor in motion
