following the shock success of t. williams >heartbeat<, voted #3 dance track of the year by us itunes, local action returns for 2011 with the debut 12 inch by contakt.
contakt hails from the midwest, but now lives in new york, where he helps run the acclaimed turrbotax® parties. the sinden-championed >not forgotten< is an ideal introduction to the balance he gets between detroit techno and contemporary underground club music, with huge galloping drums and fiery synths, while the b-side is dedicated to a stunning remix by rolando (underground resistance / ostgut-ton), and a real sleeper hit in the dark, stabbing >rhodophyta<.

this is the third single taken from boohgaloo zoos devastatingly good self-titled debut album. >i got< is a relentless disco groover while >come to this< is a slow-mo exotica house bomb (whatever that may mean) with some hints of exotica. two fat and funky joints. this time, the remixes are courtesy of mugwump and aardvark. mugwump takes the original and turns it into an electrifying discoid tour de force. aardvark does his thing, which lately means taking a song, and giving it an electronic shock treatment. those who like forward thinking electronic music will go bananas for this one. post >nameyourfavourite<?

played and supported by dave clarke, speedy j, audio injection, the advent, chris liebing, gary beck, mike humphries, virgil enzinger, hi-shock, ralph mirto, knobs, blood & tears, bcr boys, matt k and many more!

2010 has seen some juicy, off-the-wall techno/electronic vinyl goodies from the head space of little nobody, including the acclaimed >metropolis how?< and >robota< records - with remixes by the likes of james ruskin, justin berkovi, inigo kennedy, dj hi-shock, si begg, patrick pulsinger and steve stoll. but its the originator of the tracks who continues to push the perimeters, recently leading hi-shock, the prolific innovator behind the essential elektrax empire, to suggest that honestly, i think you are at least a couple of years ahead in your musical vision compared to other producers. little nobodys alter ego andrez bergen has also had his head buried this year in the creation of a hardboiled/noir/sci-fi novel called >tobacco-stained mountain goat<, and it was in the midst of this project - with these heady influences - that the get away from it all 12-inch project came to light. thus we got on board bas mooy (planet rhythm/audio assault) and dave tarrida (tresor/musick) to do the two scintillating re-takes here, which are downright brilliant. meanwhile little nobodys troll, on the flip-side, lives up to its claim: its hardboiled and devastatingly dirty electronica. all up, think streetwise, smack-your-glitch-up techno - dark, uber-bassy, dirty and pulsating - just the way we like it, with sardonic samples and a freestyle, postmodern attitude thats invigorating. matched up with the cool artwork by marcin markowski, this is an essential slab of wax for 4:00 am head-caving techno!

the album will be strictly limited for 300 copies and is already played and supported by: alexi delano, tony rohr, tom hades, cari lekebusch, perc, gary beck, virgil enzinger, dj hi-shock, xavier morel and various others…

tejada and humphrey made their debut together late in 09 with their >marooned ep<. >assimilation< continues the theme of being marooned in los angeles. the four works compiled here are the result of the best moments out of 20 recording sessions. the music is for the most part assembled with analog instruments with humphrey and tejada bringing their modular gear together for the sessions. humphreys knowledge of synths and programming is quite extensive. he until recently helped operate la based big city music, a dealer of modular and boutique synthesizers.

virgil enzinger - shadow of the mind ep on gynoid audio is a release of balance.on either side you have absolute gems that either tick the >big, crisp< production boxes and/or the >gritty, funky< boxes. no matter what the occasion calls for, what a tool to have. to be in the shadow of virgil enzingers mind, from a production standpoint, is nothing to be ashamed of but these 3 remixes (to accompany the original) all step out of the shadows to share the limelight with virgil equally. balance!

the spaniard manuel fernandez llorente had a classical musical upbringing, studying at the music conservatorium in madrid. he has been composing and producing electronic music since 1996, not only releasing on his own label >7noise< but more importantly also being licensed for various major compilations. now he is releasing his first tracks on highgrade records. at first, >addiction< unspectacularly plods on towards house heaven, but then the sparse vocals and timeless organ sounds give you a warm and soft electro shock. the first track on the b side >the gull< shows off prompts talents as a composer. a very discreet melody blankets the straight beat, taking away the coldness of the bass. a beautiful dream track that should never really end. >mechanic< brings it home and is right in your face, a journey into minimal techno country, where you meet the sound ghosts that prompt has summoned. a single drum beat here, a voice there and a now and again a sound shred that are all meticulously arranged to make the perfect atmosphere.

ruffneck proudly presents his new album, of course brought on the mighty enzyme records imprint! a beautiful designed double 12 inch + bonus cd (contains all tracks from vinyl) which offers you 8 brandnew hardcore bombs that will blow your speakers! already played by all the usual suspects so have it large!

what both neophyte and drokz stands for?, hardcore mayhem! added to the package is a new mix of the track ?holland is gvd het hardste and to simply put it as ?bonus tracks is not giving it the right credits.

massive summerhit from nick curly played by: sven väth, dubfire, matthias tanzmann, karotte, audiofly, nick fanciulli ... currently, the releases and remixes of young mannheim-born nick curly are integral parts of the scene. with his imprints cécille and 8bit records he discovered both sis and johnny d., and thus shaped the electronic music scene decisively. nick is also well-known on an international level and tours the world under the motto >series<, which is at the same time the collective name for his vinyls. sven väth is a fan of the high-flyer and invites him not only to make an ep on cocoon recordings but also for a performance at the cocoon night at super club amnesia in ibiza. the two exclusive tracks on pujante / new town stranger are showing once again nicks diversity and his intuition for groove and soul. the a side >pujante< is a strongly forward-banging piece of techno that extends over the dancefloor like a shock wave. totally different: the b side >new town stranger<. for more than 12 minutes, the listener is enchanted by this masterpiece that attracts him with its perfect groove and a fascinating voice, just like a story from another time

complot records is proud to present hanssens debut ep! with complot09 we finally get to taste delicious music from hanssen aka bob hansen (half of jacob london). we also have an exciting remix from complot co-founder dafluke. >velvet deer decals< possesses a groove that will keep you going on and on and on... hanssens skillful use of deep filtered harmonies will take you back to that good old late 90s house vibe. the beats and stabs are visceral, dense and powerful with filtered vocal cuts that sprinkle the track with sweetness. on the b side, >wtfstep< brings the funk to your doorstep! we are talking very bouncy and punchy dancefloor goodness with a contagiously dark bassline ... ..real party music! finally, theres no question dafluke expanded on his bag of tricks for his remix of >velvet deer decals<. this dissonant loopy groove is laced with other-worldly sound fx to shock and excite your ears... with a beat like a taser jolt to your feet!ken ishii : wow, interesting and fresh music here! b1 and b2 rock. / pheek : charted the dafluke remix, huge support! / mannel : i cant find the words, its perfect! the wftstep is my favorit! thanks! all the best! / tom baker : yeah loving the dafluke remix and party vibe in wftstep! nice one ! mika kalio (opossum / komplex audio)deep, dark, dubby, delcious..will be played in the next opossum radio show - and in the discotheque ass well ...

if you secretly believe that all of the best dance music has an undercurrent of melancholy then you are in for a treat. 0.5, the debut ep from the fascination movement, doesn?t skimp on either the dancefloor rhythms or the windswept yes-we-remember-new pop romanticism. the fascination movement is looking forwards, not backwards: just because this is music that adapts the same vocabulary created by bands like new order or early orchestral manoeuvres in the dark doesn?t change the fact that from the first arpeggios of ?just pretend? you feel the shock of the new. of course, you may be too busy humming along to the choruses to notice how slyly the band makes a classic sound fresh again...

kick ass breaks 2 tracker!!
