story continues its immaculate run of bottom-heavy deephouse with 4 special treats from this british underground figure that make an earthquake like introduction to the scene with 3 anonymous 12inches only that are already sought after and destined to become collectors items. an acid house veteran that followed the whole uk rave progression to harder techno, he harks back to his early influences with his productions by building his dense, jacking slo-mo house grooves around hip-hop and soul samples. cuts like >the rub< or >dh13< and take their time to slowly sneak-up on you casting a bigger and bigger shadow until you are totally immersed in the smoky, dub-filled atmosphere that has a similar feel to the psychedelic soul of motowns norman whitfild or the rzas mystic hip-hop soundscapes. >whobadu< trades for 4/4 pattern for a looser, handclapping 80s funk groove that should cross-over into the box of every more discerned hip-hop dj, while >olufeme< is a stripped down, fela style afro groover with mighty dubbed-out horn loops. four tracks that will keep all you dancers, booty shakers and headnodders happy for a long time

in perfect timing for the 10th bpitch control birthday, thomas muller presents his third solo release. born in paris, the berlin-elect has been in the city for about 2 years. certainly his current location has left an indelible mark on thomas creations - his deep and highly detailed soundscapes were already evident in the last release, >seduction< - a clear idiom into an increasingly dark realm. his current work continues consitently and ambitiously in the same vein.

this is the one you ve all been waiting for, the bad science ep from the mighty rustie. amazingly enough for an artist who has such an huge impact over the last year this is only his second full ep. i could go for on days about how good it is but best not eh. it all kicks off with the fractured hip-hop weirdness of tar and then swiftly moves into the massive bad science. we ve been seeing folk go crazy to bad science and rightly so, its an anthem and has getting properly hammered by kode9 and mark pritchard to name a few. its then on to the out there 8 bit bleepage of shadow enter. the b-side is now dedicated to the now legendary zig-zag and wireblock have really done themselves pround with this one by going straight to one of rustie s hero s the legendary henrich mueller (dopperleffekt, drexciya, arpanet etc) to add his own electro-physics sound to the aquatic mentalness of the original track. it comes to an end with zig zag (reprise), now the original was daft enough but this just to pushes it even further into new realms of madness. buy, buy, buy!

zombielicious is one of the best dance albums of the decade. when i first heard it i badly wanted to license it for turbo and we almost did. zombie was even into the idea, but the timing was bad, so we decided to put together a turbo-riffic remix pack instead. bad idea compared to getting every incredible moment of that album... but luckily the result is amazing.

due to a multitude of pressing faults and issues this release has taken a hell of a long time to get right. its worth the wait as some fine tracks lurk on this slab of vinyl. four powerful tracks on this 12 which has been worth waiting for!

after his huge >pepper exchange vol. 1<, anton zap is back with more spicey house music. moscows finest offers 4 warehouse esque deep house groovers and proves that without a shadow of a doubt hes one who you need to keep close tabs on. on quintessentials 05, anton keeps his >pepper exchange< style: stripped back, & raw! its pure, back to its roots simple groove quality which works so well with anton zaps new 12inch. but like a lot of antons music, deep atmospherics play a big part and this is why his music has that standout from the rest feel. its not often that you come across a ep where all the tracks are playable, but even less often where all the tracks make you step back and appreciate them much more than you normally would. essential house music for those looking for the simple soul filled stripped back house feel

carsten franke macht nach der >professional killer ep< und der >open closed ep< den hattrick mit seiner dritten solo platte. seine tracks bewegen sich stets zwischen den stuehlen, kommen aber immer auf den punkt. dreckige basslines gepaart mit einer unbeabsichtigten funkyness lassen aufhorchen und koepfe nicken. nun ist er mit der >shadows & signs ep< zurück auf ostwind. ein funktionaler 3 tracker mit einem remix von le cuisine b., der carstens >shadow & signs< in einen klassischen 303er techno track mit old school und funk einschlag umfunktioniert. der groovige electro techhouse titeltrack, schwebt erst sachte daher, um sich nach dem mittelteil als ranziger schieber zu entpuppen. der leicht knarzige a2 track gewinnt schon am anfang und laesst durch ein aufkommendes gitarrensample die spannung steigen. track b2 hat eine gemeine acidbassline und funktioniert durch die hauptmelodie als errinnerung für den abend !! was als minimaler techno anfaengt entwickelt sich zusehens zum modernen acidtrance.. supported by gebrueder teichmann, holger nielson and monoroom

schoenes, poppig angehauchtes electro album von den knaben, die musikalisch z.b. von depeche mode oder new order oder auch frank sinatra gepraegt sind..

if there is one overall trend to spot in the wide fields of electronic music over the last years, it is the reversion to emotion. in a time where tracks are becoming more and more anonymous tools, melodies, references to pop music and recognition are seen as a design element and not as a blemish. to be honest, this recurrence was desperately needed, because music was always at best when feelings and not the mathematic of clicks were at the centre of attention. soda inc. reached this point of intersection already with their debut album >full moon< one and a half years ago. with intense anthems such as flight su 118 babak shayan and jon silva have created the deepest and most pictorial vision dub related techhouse had to offer to our hearts and souls. a solid basis to build up for the early summer of 2006....
