with releases under a range of pseudonyms (orpheus, sir leon greg, nite vision) and support for his previous explorations of depth coming from the likes of john heckle, dj deep, aroy dee, chicago skyway and steffi to name but a few, once again perseus traxx unashamedly shows his nature on this release. thoughts, feelings and emotions are by far the most important influences on music, and capturing moments then translating into a musical form he once again documents the more personal elements of his life, taking you deep. perseus weaves a rich tapestry of emotions and desires using heavily weighted bass tones and skipping percussion that thread together with expansive strings and pads. these are married with more detailed melodies and modulated tones that shimmer in and out of the psyche as he uses analogue boxes and their warmth like a loom. this collection of music ranges from the deep and dreamy, to total transcendence within steady dance floor rhythms clothed in a warm yet spacious fabric of sound. deep house, sometimes with a real sense of urgency that juxtaposes with it is inherent flights of fancy.

the e.p kicks off with she can dance, a slow burning acid number that has elements of deep, grooving house from the detroit school. in fact, the second cut low control bares the influence of detroit too, with its murky, dubbed-out chords ala luke hess moving into a punchy bassline with minimal but functional drum patterns. proceedings get a bit more bouncy on the smoking hat, a quirky acid romp on the less daft side of ceephax, and the perfect soundtrack to accompany a feature-length documentary about.... a smoking hat. finishing up the e.p is fudge fingas remix of low control, the only man qualified to make an already deep as fuck track even deeper. theres been some on-point criticisms about a lot recent deep stuff getting lost in noodly jazz territory, but we are in no danger of that nonsense with fudge fingas at the controls: accomplished a musician he may be, hes never been one to lose the way, and this mix proves his deft and subtle remix talents. dabj done done it again, and hopefully this is the first in a long line of productions from vernon.

mowar enters autumn with the 2nd instalment of deep floors, once again exploring the deeper grooves of techno. first up is ohios fbk, whose first release already goes back to 1996 on the legendary frictional records. with she brought me there fbk opens the dance with a solid deep dancefloor groover, driven by a hypnotic hook and infectious chords. stripped down and yet full of atmosphere. after that uks tom dicicco and italys roberto bosco team up to deliver all dem, another stripped affair with rolling drums and chord stabs, a solid blend of deep hypnotic layers of groove. on the flipside we find spains aiken with a strong detroit-infused workout, in-your-face kick drums, jacking rhythms and dramatic strings. your turntables will love it. last but not least, a new belgian upcoming producer stevie p delivers a dubbed out functional deep techno track with hip-sensitive chord stabs and a fiercely throbbing rhythm.

nice price deal !!! aÑa / henning baer / norman nodge / musk.... no one knows exactly how, or why it happened. we can only postulate. perhaps it was rogue hydrogen atoms causing havoc again, or a particularly voracious wave of em radiation hell bent on finding a good time. the point is, (in those days) such lude behavior was simply unacceptable: aÑa had become excited, too much so for the solar stiffs that swirled about her. and that system of hers—always buzzing around, refusing to share anything—it had to go. so both were exiled from that collision patch they called home, leaving aÑa and her system to wander the cosmos. some years passed. aÑa grew a little, but mostly she practiced her basswalk—not this girly swooshy thing with your hips, but a real bolshy bovver boot stomp. after a while she got pretty good at it, she wanted to show her friends. maybe theyd like to basswalk too. well, they couldnt get enough of it—but no one did it quite like aÑa. henning baers had a bit more groove to it and this whole new tweaky hat element. norman nodge kept his pretty punchy, but all that time spent in berghain had turned his basswalk into a bit of a skulk. as for musk, the boys inverted the whole thing of course—turned a disco trick, shifting the march down into more of a slinky house glide. aÑa liked them all so much—and it was time isolated system stopped being such a separatist—she decided to gather them all together to make basswalker part i. now you can basswalk too

5 compositions firmly rooted in chicago, but offering variety to the romanticized concept, as marcell holds true to his home town production ethos with sampling, beating arrangement, and spoken word.

>bored of shit< is the first release from new label k!ssa records. it follows dollskabeats debut >zodiac rising / no breaks no sleep< ep, which grabbed the attention of the music press, radio 1 and 6 music back in 2009. an electronic punk sneer and light-hearted grump at the state of modern popular culture, >bored of shit< is perhaps not what people might have expected as a follow up from dollskabeat but either way, it is a sure fire dance-floor filler. the ep also features an exquisite remix from vakula who described the track as impossible not to dance to and guest bass playing from firecrackers fudge fingas. keep your ears peeled for future dollskabeat release >so long for a small storm< - a mould-breaking piece of electronic music that will pick up where she left off. pressed on 180g vinyl and mastered by matt colton at air studios.

after ushering in a raft of releases from top talent over the last year that turned quite a few heads, we over here at thema thought it was time to assert our own opinions a bit more forcefully. we certainly appreciate all the support we garnered from the detroit drops courtesy of norm and terrence, and sliding over to the smallville end of the spectrum with rau and suburb certainly didnt lose the thread either. sometimes its easy to build a vibe on the backs of others rather than on simple merit though… with that in mind we have taken our own path since then, and the recent successes from beaner and laurine frost stand alone as the accolades keep rolling in. continuing on our outbound trajectory, we present the solo vinyl debut of gathaspar, the mysterious polish producer who has been making noise mostly in berlin and to the east.

die stecker wurden gezogen, die drums in der garage gelassen – hansonis kommt heuer auf ganz leisen sohlen daher. akustikgitarre, zurückgenommener gesang und ein paar tupfer e-gitarre, klavier und keyboards – mehr benötigt der musiker nicht, um “shark week“ zu einer zwingenden angelegenheit zu machen. von folk über country und blues bis hin zur mörder - ballade – hansonis schlendert auf seiner melancholischen reise durch die songwriter-genres, veredelt seine songs aber immer wieder durch die entscheidende prise distinguierten 80er-pops. hier ein unwiderstehlicher melodiebogen, da eine prägnante phrasierung – der kölner vermählt us-amerikanische musik - traditionen mit einem britisch geprägten popverständnis und dreht am ende sein ganz eigenes ding draus.
