when italian alex costa arrived in the world in 1979 he believes he was already addicted to electronic music. inspired by the djs surrounding him in his pr role in the clubs in the early nineties, he made the switch to dj and radio show host. in 2005 he started to produce - zoning in on quality deep house, tribal and tech house and scoring him a series of releases including daddy soon on toolroom records and was great on intacto records. we are happy he is back for some more intacto fuelled action!

ncql annouces himself in no uncertain fashion with the anthemic strings of >the framed dreams of loki<. the track nods to dj premier, prefuse 73 and classic metalheadz d&b hidden agenda style and theres a subtle (!) reference to a certain classic 90s rave tune in there aswell. it sounds like a mess – its anything but! this is uplifting breakbeat at its very best. its not often a tune gets played twice by bailey on his bbc 1xtra show in the space of a month, so this must be something special. the flipside has a similar organic & uplifting aesthetic. a strutting break is the base for a deluge of warmth in the shape of synths, strings, flutes, harp and vocals – an unusual sound palette for a drum & bass track these days but refreshing to hear. dj flight thought so and has aired it on one of her next chapter rinse fm broadcasts.

on this white label, we bring together two of the best producers in the uk to give there perspective of the work of sbtrkt. the ratio of quality to quantity in the braiden repertoire is disproportionately weighted in favour of quality. his debut release >the alps<, on joy orbisons label doldrums, certified him as a meticulous detailed producer. if youve heard is rinse fm show, youll have enjoyed the intensity and breadth of his perspective. this musicological take on sbtrkts >pharaohs< recontextualises roses gabor afro-futuristic vocals line in a more genuinely space-age industrial club sphere. the darker edge to lil silva is just the baddest of all uk house producers. his uk funky background has sheltered him from the hype lauded upon the flavour of the month post-dubstep producers of his generation. as a result, hes continued to garner respect from all sides, from the garage scene to the tech house scene. his treatment of >living like i do< takes his mate samphas vocal and adds a jerk discord to an already tense and dramatic vocal performance. his trademark 2-note bassline presents itself with its usual menace, ensuring waistlines to react promptly.

alberto pascual analytic trail after anagrams ep in 2010, releases for the second time a project of one of the most internationally famous spanish producers, alberto pascual. his works have been played by richie hawtin, dubfire, markantonio, adam beyer, cristian varela, joseph capriati and others techno giants. bailando, is a creative and tasteful ep formed by four track, including a remix of manuel anos a.k.a. psyk, already reached the success with is project released on richie hawtins minus label. the first track is bailando, it has a powerful charge with its massive groove and obstinate synth that flies hasty on a swarm of rides. no breaks in this tune, techno device. bailando continues to leave its mark through another spanish producer, his name is manuel anos a.k.a. psyk. he creates an amazing remix made by a weighty kick and a compressed bassline, this compact but hard beat is surrounded by acid sounds and increasing effects that make of this track a dark techno wave of course.amok has a rousing modulation that directs the track in a swinging vibe with linear claps and hihats. but is just the beginning, after few minutes something changes, a dirty synth in background starts to support an hurry beat that goes on till the break. here everything seems to quiet till the restart, where the ride rules and nobody cant avoid its rage. final lap with homonymous track of this ep. this artist on this tune can show his eclecticism using a techno unbreakable step with electronic cyclic string. wonderful underground soundtrack. so young, so strong, so techno. this is another quality touch for analytic trail, good music must be appreciated.

jose rico and dj f are responsible for the second release of eleve label, two of the heads of the madrilian emergent scene of producers. the synths and sequences of 5 minute before and la verdad show that dj f is partial to detroits flavours, specially robert hood, among many others. for the last track, out of the energy, he builds together with jose rico a gem of atmospheric analogue house with claps that remind to chicago. a productive collaboration that has just started off with this release along with freebeat 02.

with davidchristoph we have a fresh, fulminant dj battle, which stands for extravagant work behind the decks! feasting up to the point of ecstasy, dancing in great profusion and music that forces you to move your body, are just 3 maxims they act on. for patterns the boys show their diversity in styles, resulting in a more subttle techno style than you might know patterns for, but for sure this is an effective piece of vinyl! perfect dancefloor material.

the new citrus is a real show stealing. an amazing assertive journey through drum & bass. mefjus and kung bring that typical citrus sound on the a side and place 2b and paimon go somewhat more melodic on the b side. essential citrus release!

having already appeared on r&s with a remix of model 500 and a track on the iotdxi compilation named >ralph< which showcased his singing voice for the first time, this two track single seems like the natural stepping stone from bullions previous work. replacing what would previously have been samples with his own vocals and instruments played by both himself and some friends, >say arr ee< and >what does she know< continue to show bullion as a music lover of many styles who can identify and combine those elements with an air of sympathetic range and still have a sense of clarity and cohesion.

since slice of life, his last ep release on moon harbour, dan drastic has been anything but idle.hes released on luna records and rrygular and contributed several tracks to the moon harbour compilations ten years of moonharbour and moon harbour joints vol. 2. since october 2011 he has been taking turns with luna city express at hosting the moon harbour radio show and is still an essential part of the moon harbour labelflights at the leipzig distillery. he is ringing in 2012 with an eclectic ep. the title track,noodle stories,as well as the track lospollos hermanos,are perfect for the time between warmup and peak in the club: they are deep but have more thanenough energy to get the dance floor moving. martin buttrich takes a more minimal approach in his remix ofnoodle stories,transforming the track into a subtle techhouse stomper.with fish fingers and custard, dandrastic shows his rave side. the groove of the track is dense and driving and reaches its climax through an utterlyeffective chord sequence. free download voucher for all vinyl tracks incl. in the first 500 copies!

a new year, a new record. der turnbeutel brings its third vinyl into the recordstores. on the a-side you will find our old acquaintance datastix, who again show their lucky hands in finding the right track in these dark times of the year with their >penumbra<. it is accompanied by a remix from nadja lind (klartraum/lucidflow) – a remix that fills espacially the guys of datastix with a lot of pride. on the b-side clark davis turns his rounds with his >tretroller< (engl. scooter), a track which will drive the atomsphere on any dancefloor. the disk gets completed by a tretroller remix from andre kronert (night drive music), that comes so massive that even big boys can ride it smoothly.

nice price deal !!! killer release from this new detroit artist and label that blurs the line between detroit house and the current sound coming from the uk. fans of shake and forward thinking uk dance music will lap this up. anthony shake- how many moons -- broken car widows , claude young- how many moons and broken car windows, marcellus pittman - some next shit out of detroit! how many moons, laurent garnier -realy like this ep a lot. will present it on my radio show very soon. dj 3000- franki - its nice to see some new young talent that taking chances on a whole new sound. deep & funky

the next release coming out of the roska camp is this smart vinyl-only followup to the roska allstars release. this second instalment brings more of the same versatile movements from some fantastic producers currently leading the way for upfront danceable material. main man roska signs up terror danjah to pull of a smart remix of his track >without it<. its somewhat of a guilty pleasure hearing both artists signature idents in one song, terror with his evil gremlin laugh and roska with his ubiquitous shout out! however its all about the arrangement here as terror reforms those original trumpet sounds and adds some heavy distorted bass. j:kenzo serves up >let it move< which is all out pure electro style with punchy drums and dirty synths, again lending to the surprising nature of this labels output. tickles completes the vinyl only package with >da growler<. drums are tougher than iron and bass harder than rock as tickles blends funky, dubstep and house into his own dance-floor destructive mould. all three records show a different side to the current uk bass and funky scene, yet they somehow could only belong on kicks & snares. a fine package for a burgeoning label.

boogie boutique have only had one year in the game, and in that time they have smashed the charts with their releases. to celebrate their first birthday, they have dipped their toes into the glorious world of vinyl with this double 12 inch with seven of the labels finest tracks to date plus one exclusive. make no mistake, this release is big!

6 months after we first ventured into vinyl territory were back with a new ep. the follow up to kastils dusty edits is a sampler containing 4 tracks by 3 artists we are heavily supporting at the moment. the a1 is again by basque county based kastil. shes back is a wonderful sample drenched house track containing soul touching vocals. definitely one for the dancefloor. on the a2 we have doctor bills by fellow rotterdam native ben la desh this is actually his first release out of many to come. this track has been circulating the soundcloud for a few months and was played by ooft! in one of his excellent podcasts. on the flip we find two tracks by taiko mochi name:tomas malo. while the b1 scenesters is a great more uptempo disco house track with quite an emotive break its the b2 slomo track shelter that has been stealing the show until now. if youre in to real slow and mesmerizing music this might just be the one for you. support by: ooft!, the dead rose music company, miguel campbell, craig smith (6th borough project), andy ash, james johnston, soho808, sleazy beats recordings, zoo look, kirill tipo, fulbert, satore.

kowton and tom dicicco, residing in bristol and manchester respectively, make very different music from one another. kowtons seems to come from house, perhaps also electro and garage, often quite slow in tempo and hard to pin down to a specific genre. toms music is techno, bass heavy, melodic, textured and rooted around 125 bpm. with these distinctive styles the idea of a split ep might seem ambitious, but the result is four cohesive but different tracks that show the talents of both artists perfectly in the format of two originals on one side and two remixes of each others originals on the other. tom diciccos original is driven by a low-mid range thick stab and pounding kick drum, littered with intricate but not overbearing hi hat and snare work and some very atmospheric mid range. kowtons is subtle and sparse, low fidelity and plodding, with rattling percusion carrying the tune along. on the other side of the record, kowtons remix of toms original is driven by an enormous bassline, with an off kilter dubby feel to the slow tempo and genre defying tune. toms remix of kowton rounds off the ep with a return to stab driven techno, pulsating, dynamic and trance inducing.

after the success of the nothing special events a label of the same name begins. the events so far have been held at fabric of course and new york. the concept is simply that craig plays all night around live acts. previous guests have been pole, deadbeat, moritz von oswald trio, emperor machine, convextion, dopplereffekt. 2652, shackleton and conforce. the depth of craigs musical knowledge as a dj provides a sense of structure to the parties. the nothing special in weekly radio show format commences imminently. first release is by radionasty - the combined force of billy nasty and keith tenniswood.

surely with forward-looking ambitions, serbian fellow dejan milicevic drops his debut album trust and the purpose with style, non-compromisingly showing us how electronic music has no limits, only heart and soul is needed. he throws a good example how to gather different genres and styles into one great peace of art, one that certainly cant resist giving in without touching our heart.

terpsiton are proud to welcome to the gang the new faces of the scene and old friends of the label called themselves the scene. this strongly and catchy headline is wisely chosen and named after the legendary detroit based tv-show that turned usual men into celebrities over night. it absurdly and hilariously demonstrates how to get a name and how to get fame just by being marked as a celebrity. so, these well talented guys that are totally into the deep and underground house stuff vault themselves into the scene by releasing this ass-kicking and groundbreaking record that is full of catchy and lovely hook lines, forcing kick drums, intense arrangements and a true passion for the house movement as it was back in the days. on two songs (feist movement & lab) the scene is supported by two other new gang members soon to be well known namely as niki and franz b. werner who add their feel and taste of sounds. a unique blend of individuals, great sounds and real emotions that will make history. never mind the celebrities - here comes the scene!

reissue of the 2007 album from the national on translucent yellow coloured vinyl.

look sharp. kap bambino is a stampeding punk-rock juggernaut,and its hurtling this way. unlike most assaults of lawless rock n roll ideals, its not powered by guitars,or rather any live instruments whatsoever. the empowering eruption of frenzied discordance, space invader sucker-punch beats and caterwauling incantations conjured by the bordeaux duo, caroline martial and orion bouvier, is the result of harnessing the unruly spirit of bands like suicide and nirvana, then feeding it through a tangled web of samplers, synthesisers and software modules. the result is a more immediate, more kinetic and more inspiring show than your likely to witness from any of the baggy-shorted buffoons 2009 tries to throw up as punk-rockers.

after great success with the 1st 12and the ostertag lp rrose returns to show us how its done ! comes in printed in and out sandwell sleeve. following the storming recent debut of rrose live at berghain, sandwell presents the most floor-friendly release so far from the new artist – essential !

rhein-main based tag team diggler & franksen go back some way in the history of frankfurts electronic scene. around 2000 diggler honed his reputation as a master of dubby techno for a whole decade. his early tracks like >boogiemonster< are blueprints of cool. period. today he is still rollin out crisp and deep techhouse beats that combine musical finesse, compositional tension and club appeal. having released about six albums and countless tracks and remixes for labels from raum…musik to cocoon and from resopal to level non zero, diggler is still on the hunt for the proper dose of beat hypnosis.
for their >morning blue ep< diggler teams up with frankfurts radio legend franksen who hosts germanys eldest dj show, todays you fm clubnight. franksen saw a string of releases over the last two years, collaborating for labels such as suara, dieb.audio, kommmitmusik, plastic city and more.

andreas reihse is well known since 1994 in his role as musician with kreidler. sometimes he releases club music, for example using his alias april or with detlef weinrich (kreidler, tolouse lowtrax) as binford on labels like italic, onitor or smoothrooms. he also composed soundtracks for artist movies and installations (rosemarie trockel, maximilian zentz zlomowitz, thea djordjadze, andreas gursky, frances scholz/mark von schlegell, among others). romantic comedy is music for dark clubs, for places without much light and oxygen – its driving, percussive dance music. a comedy in six acts: from l.a. to düsseldorf and back. music and lyrics? - pop goes my heart! - of course its a romantic comedy, a bittersweet romance full of memories and a bit of sorrow. >der lange weg nach düsseldorf< the title reminds of mittagspauses der lange weg nach derendorf, derendorf, the district of düsseldorf where andreas reihse and stefan betke / pole in the late 80ies shared a rehearsal room. langeweg also was the adress of the studio of klaus dinger in zeeland. the titles of the other pieces refer to dubious characters that show that the trip on the west coast makes stops in manchester, milano, brussels and london without forgetting charlottenburg and williamsburg. places that hold up against oblivion and reinvent themselves. your club needs you. the cover was designed by artist thea djordjadze

escort have been setting dance floors ablaze with their disco-infused beats, irresistibly catchy hooks and seductive live show since releasing a series of 12 inch singles in 2006. the 17-member disco orchestra, founded by producers eugene cho and dan balis, and fronted by lead singer adeline michele, features an incredible cast of musicians who have played with everyone from indie-rock titans arcade fire to avant-classical luminaries alarm will sound. >cameleon chameleon< is a theatrical masterpiece about the french serial impostor frederic bourdin, set to a beat that is equal parts thriller and the tom tom club.

audiojack return to 2020 after a year or so setting up their imprint gruuv. the new single >get serious< shows the duo not only mature as artists but also develop and hone their sound to new house themed productions. the title track is state of the art bounce in a box with a killer vocal hook, >let the rhythm take you<, meandering around sweet insistent stabs. its been smashing terraces, rooftops and discotheques all summer and now its finally available for our select dj friends to carry on the vibes through autumn. >polka dot dress< comes spotted with a sound originally created on the classic korg m1 synth and used by mk to devastating effect in the 90s. audiojack have then sprinkled their magic dust on it and added sweeping detroit techno strings, tight drums and healthy amounts of bottom end rumble. as we look forward it is important to know your roots and audiojack show they know their house history by covering the all time classic by the backroom - definition of a track. no samples at all were used and the guys worked out and replayed all the synth parts before adding new vocals from kevin knapp. by beefing up the original we hope a new generation of djs and clubbers bust out this amazing track. it deserves to be heard again and is produced and primed for todays dancefloors.

ultraschall is an homage to the first big techno club in munich. the owners of harry klein were part of the old ultraschall, which has a unique legendary status nowa¬days. the older generation in particular often long for the good old days. yes those times shouldnt be forgotten, especially not in terms of sound, but its also important to move on and attempt new things. like supporting vinyl, going to a who¬lefood shop or ending war. ok that might sound like a bro¬ken record, but how about spending less time on facebook and actually with your friends, cooking for your parents or organizing a break dance battle in your backyard? daniel takes us on a journey through the past and back to the future again. a charming mixture of laid-back grooves combined with some rough n ready rave moments make this a rapturous trip, no matter what time it is. track names are a really interesting element of music. some artists dont care about them at all and call their tracks a1 or something non-descript. yet many titles can be really funny, others made up words, and some corre¬spond to current events or times. some just really fit the sound. if you lose something, in general its a pretty nasty and unsettling feeling. but you have to deal with bad luck when it strikes. losing something can teach you an im¬portant lesson, or simply show you what it means to be unfortunate and down. not knowing the lows as well as the highs wont allow you to evaluate life very well. most important is to really feel and be yourself, despite the ups and downs.

the great strength of feindrehstar lies in their engaging and dynamic live-show on the stage. if you see them once, you must see them again. whether metalhead with a glass of beer, a dreadlocked queen or standard- issue club-goer, this band moves everybody. that feindrehstar also crafts music that from its source warmly hugs the listener is another plus they have going for them. these are supported on the latest from musikkrause by producers such as axel reinemer (jazzanova), michel baumann (soulphiction) & wendelin weiflbach (metaboman, krause duo).

soniculture, the lisbon-based label, proudly presents billy dalessandros 5th album entitled cracktime. this project forges a new generation of production style and sound design for billy as he cocks the shotgun of his latest experiment in electronic debauchery. cracktime sonically defines those innocent and naughty moments that each of us exhibit, in our own way, that helps to fulfill our lives with all those insane memories we carry with us back to the grave. thirteen tracks round out this ring match in a dub-infused, 303- injected, chicago-style bassd-out fight that lasts just about an hour. so sit back (or jack back) to the show, and remember...that if religion is the opium of the masses, music definitely gives us our daily crack.

friske is proud to announce the debut of his own imprint, melee. melee aims to provide a resurgence of raw drum & bass with a no compromise approach to quality and trends. with its debut, melee 001 features four producers and their unique sounds of authentic attitude, grinding surges and grimey basslines that have made them staples in the drum & bass scene.

alice rose, the surprising and inspiring danish musical phenomenon, and one-woman-electroavantgarde-show, has started a new project called tiger rose. after releasing three highly musical dream-pop albums as alice rose, the cologne, germany based avant-garde singer-songwriter has beamed herself onto the planet techno, and shes firmly planted her flag with the tiger rose debut, >food for dreams<. as tiger rose, alice works the four-to-the-floor bass drum with enough space around it to make a cinematic playground for her musical imagination. and when she pours it on, she breaks free of the restrictive corset of regular dance music. on >food for dreams< the techno tracks pop to life, full of depth and groove as well as sparkling lightness. gabriel ananda, her long-time collaborator and friend, had his hands on the mix which makes it even more exciting. with the debut of tiger rose, a new imaginative musician has entered the techno scene with the potential to inspire techno and dance music fans alike. listeners beware: this tiger is going to make you move and groove.

different recordings is very proud to release mr no debut: snake ep.
initial reactions are overwhelming with rob da bank using the title track the snake to open his bbc radio show on oct 1st or thebluewalrus blog writting >i havent been as excited about a french techno/house debut as much as what i ve just heard from mr no in a long time. fuck yes!<
with the snake, he or she and vibrant (the three tracks of this ep) mr no delivers a warm uplifting techno / electronic music full or energy.

the next ep on germany s hello? repeat imprint comes from seuil, one of paris s most inspired underground producers. in terms of style, it is a match that could hardly be more perfect. hello? repeat has spent the past six years carving a niche for itself with eps from cabanne, audio werner and label co-founder daze maxim, plus acclaimed albums by bruno pronsato and kate simko. seuil, meanwhile, has put out a steady stream of ultra-deep 12-inches on labels like freak n chic and sammy dees ultrastretch. both specialize in a sound that is modern, understated and hypnotic. late call is exactly what its name suggests: a record made for the deepest, most tender portion of the night. the drums are slick and punchy, but the rest is woozy and romantic–this is one to put on when the crowd has stopped chatting and everyone s dancing with their eyes closed. topping it off is a vocal line made famous by diana ross but recited here by an androgynous diva: if you need me, call me, no matter where you are, no matter how far… dark, trippy and weirdly moving, this is one of seuil s finest tracks yet. >slow motion< strikes a similar chord but with a more subtle approach. here you notice seuil s rare touch for subtlety: in the absence of any real >hook<, he keeps the track moving with expertly sculpted drums, a warm half-melody and a gently propulsive beat. soft chords sustain in the background to create a balmy summer night feel. both tracks show seuil and hello? repeat doing what they do best: delivering something deep, functional and full of character.
