meander continues the killer project from mike shannon and dewalta with a superb record of pure analog synth-funk. the creative cooperation between these two inventive minds deliver a pretty unusual adventure. wandering via a deep forest of sounds saint jack de smoove guides you powerful and reverberating through the darker territories of time and space. mike, known for his outputs on respected labels like plus 8, force inc., wagon repair and cynosure already worked with dewalta for releases on haunt and their first record for the same project on cynosure. their second offering goes a huge step further into sounddesign and warm black grooves making it a perfect record for the house meander is. saint jack de smoove welcomes you to join him on his incredible voyage into altered states.

mike shannon steps up to the cityfox ltd plate and squeezes the jack juice on his latest offering for cityfox ltd entitled foxology. its a 3 track session of deep jazzy basslines and smooth cuts. we start things off with >foxology feat. flowing<, a twistedly deep smoothy of a house cut with shannons signature shuffle groove and warped dynamic basses featuring some wicked blues harp action from amsterdams flowing. foxologys b-side is home to >foxwell< and >zukunftstrasse<, the former being a rather hot number bubbling with bouncing bass, whereas >zukunftstrasse< is even more laid back and down tempo, while still playing your mind with it’s sonic insight to the distant future.

london-based thomas feriero, aka avatism, didnt buy his first vinyl when he was ten years old, nor was he born out of the love of two underground jazz musicians. he had an extremely dull and standard childhood and can barely play the drums. yet somehow, he is able to formulate techhouse tracks that are classy and artful while remaining dancefloor-functional.

cynosure starts off 2011 with a killer collaboration project of label head mike shannon and one of berlins hottest young producers david dewalta. dewalta has been recording for years for the likes of vakant and meander records. no stranger to working with mike having already collaborated on the surrender ep on haunt music. the first effort together proved that the two producers make an excellent combination.

stunning 2x 10 inch package , limited !! incl remixes by ricardo villalobos, rozzo, deadbeat!!!

sometimes a track is so hot it just has to come back around again. about ten years ago brett johnson and dave barker (stucco homes) wrote some unbelievably catching house tunes, one of them being temptation and lies. so it just seemed right to give this track yet another life. deadbeat and mike shannon dive deep into a stripped down techno groover, removing the constant use of the vocals and creating a rolling techno dub version. some seriously deep bass in the production that works the subs in all the right places. ernesto ferreyra and guillaume coutu dumont aka chic miniature give you a playful melodic version on the flip. full use of the original chord progressions, combined with the guys signature marimba/latin percussion leaving you with a lush, warm summer hit. then brett dives into the track again giving you the oohs and ahhs mix. a ten minutes work out with bjs patented groove focused on the vocal harmonies in the original. the result is a warped, spaced out, long player that is sure to twist a few heads. mental just about sums it up. of course we had to include the original masterpiece for those who didnt find it the first time round. a favorite of everyone involved on the remix project i think youll agree that the temptation and lies cynosure mixes do the original some justice.

dj deekline and ed solo with this super hot party breaks 3 tracker taking you on a trip from shannons let the music play through wu tang clans gravel pit to the legendary twist and shout by the beatles !! special repress

cynosure flag ship artist and label navigator mike shannon reaches into his archives and selects the much-anticipated “the box ep.” “the box is open” was always a highlight of many of mr.shannon’s dj sessions and live acts. this cut delivers nostalgic, old school of detroit, soulful, techno jack. a ton to digest there but there really is no other way to sum it up. adam marshall graces the ep with a stormer of a remix. taking things a step further, adam really explores a different use of the chords given to you in the original. a smooth kicking set of drums and ever elevating sequences of synth keep you on your toes never really knowing exactly when things will drop. definitely a production trait that adam is best known for and it never fails on the floor. howie mangel

das neue plus 8 album kommt von mike shannon. gewohnt funkige beats, detailverliebte arrangements, und matthew johnson und vincenzo haben auch noch mit geholfen.. musik hören und genießen wird hier groß geschrieben

played by anja scheider !!! killer minimal phunked detroit tech style

killer modern house from depths of deep space. adam marshalls original mix takes swinging chicago drums and paints them a dark black, while chord stabs morph and evolve in a tough, organic style on this 11-minute journey. mike shannons impressive re-working tightens everything up and funks the hell out of the groove with sizzling dry hats, sub-bass ruminations, and one serious breakdown. one of his best remixes yet by far. both are serious club killers

nake sharco is not the name of a mean, dangerous bounty hunter with a big-ass mohawk and bizeps like ox thighs but stands for the unexpected collaboration of premium canadian techno auteur mike shannon ( cynorsure ) and spanish purveyor of elegant deephouse and loudeast label boss nacho marco, who are nevertheless out to nail down some punters and lock them on the floor with this powerful 3 tracker.

played by anja schneider , tiefschwarz ... voodeux is the deep techno moniker of tanner ross & kilowatts (from dirtybird.) on >the curse< ross & watts expand their catalog of sound beyond the funk and into the sublime. instead of swiggles and bounce, we get creeping basslines and chilling echoes. with >thriller< as a distant relative, side a1 makes for the graveyard, zombies in tow, and as the track matures, so do the chills on the back of your spine. >the spell< goes one step further, taking the sound of a distant train, shards of ghoulsound and an ancient wind under a pulsing beat and chiming melodies. its halloween on wax. mike shannon, founder of cynosure and master of all things trippy, puts his own well-crafted stamp on this dark sound. shannon has recorded for ~scape, force inc. and many more. and no ones gonna save you from the beats about strike

supported by: chez damier, jimpster, chris duckenfield, leandro gámez… from the hands of nacho marco, who recently had a big succes with his >sweetest ep< on freerange, various forthcoming releases on pacha recordings and with a bunch of releases during the last years on labels like odori, shinichi, mutes future groove, d.press industries, exun or hypnotic, comes this new label focused on house music in its most deep, electronic, tech and groovy side. based in valencia, spain, loudeast records will be bringing the most elegant, quality, moody tracks to your favourite dancefloors. for this first release own nacho wrote >sundays in love<, counting with the special remix collaboration of partners mike shannon (cynosure records, montreal) and garcynoise (justified cause recorthings, barcelona). on the a-side you will find nachos original mix letting the melody and bass persist amongst the rest of elements. a2 is the turn for our canadian man mike shannon, who with his >tuesdays in love< mix drives you to an uncertain techy point between montreal and detroit cooked with hot spicy percussions.

the third and final part of the tactile series >tactile green< features mike shannons deeper, slighty melancholic deep techno house tracks

superb minimal techhouse remix package with an outstanding guido schneider remix !!

dj support : jennifer cardini, shinedoe, tobi neumann!! 8bit rojo on side a is a hard dirty groover. starting off as a straight up jacker that over a three minute progression turns into a heavy peak time cut. with a low rez processing throughout the percussion and overdriven subs the name of the game of this track is dirtyness. bouncing underneath the dirt is a slick gliding bass line that slides down from 100hz to 40hz. sure to work the dancefloor from peak time to down time. the b side red tide is a deep headstrong slow builder that elevates like an induced acid frenzy. massive funky techno

so cynosures 2007 releases start off with a three part series from cynosures flagship artist mike shannon entitled tactile. tactile blue is the first part in the series that features some mikes kicking deep minimal techno that made his reputation what it is

“breathe the machine” is the first installment of dojostudio and presents a musical world rich in harmonics, low frequency and melodic impact, yet with enough space in between to allow that perfect breathing room essential for powerful dance cuts. “breathe the machine” portrays a world that initially feels robotic, yet instills an organic fluidity known only to come from humanoid beings, breathing life into a system littered with code and coldness. billy dalessandro presents 3 original cuts, plus a rendition of the title track by mike shannon.

so low is an occasional night in glasgow run by iona fortune, jd twitch, katie shambles and becky marshall. so low is strictly for creatures of the night and plays music that could perhaps be described by the words dark waves / cold waves / minimal synthesis / maximal industrial / lo-nrg / forgotten flemish goth bands, teutonic apocalyptic beats +++ it is now also a label, administered by optimo music. the third release on so low is a 5-track ep from ian hicks, formerly one half of soft metals. ian also appeared on our “now & then” compilation ep. here he commands his own release and sets the synths to stun with 5 tracks of analogue waves ranging from the xtc bliss out of “character collapse” and “depths of psyche” to the shockwave klang of “chemical environments” and “specter”, perhaps leaving the very best to last with the ultimate hypno, sex slug groove of “continuous”. subliminal vocals. wrecked drum boxes. synths spiralling. full colour picture sleeve designed by so low collective member and acclaimed glasgow artist katie shannon.

happy birthday for 8 years half baked!

4th veniceberg instalment comes from the italian duo minimono. two minimal unreleased cuts from 2008 paired by very special remixes from heavyweights titonton duvante and mike shannon. a must have.

mathew jonson’s “decompression” was first released on minus in 2004. to celebrate 13 years since it’s release mathew has commissioned 11 artists to remix this classic split over 4 releases. the first ep of the series features remixes from dbridge, konrad black and nathan jonson, each artists contribution provides a fresh approach to a package fuelled by the influence of drum & bass. dbridge steps up for two remixes, the first is warped and deconstructed, the second a high energy drum & bass belter. konrad black slows things down with a darker groove whilst nathan jonson’s ‘rewind to 96’ utilises rave tropes and chopped vocal samples. the package is a magnificent addition to the legacy of ‘decompression’ and coming next will be remixes from seth troxler, deadbeat, mike shannon and natalia escobar. mathew jonson’s “decompression” was first released on minus in 2004. this is the first release on mathew jonson’s new label entitled “freedom engine” mastered at scape mastering
