kowtons eps are the best possible fit for the devils workshop – they are not only deep, dark and warm, but also seductive and, at a pinch, sexy – just like the dark prince, or so i ve been told. perhaps i ve come under satans sway, but for me, both eps released so far on idle hands sound like someone whos been at it for much, much longer: this is a music knowledge which is anything but basic.

so sound recordings latest acquisition to its roster is a trio from hannover, germany and they are called les loups. ladies and gentlemens if you thought that >french house<was a cool style of music back from the late 90s and early 2000s, think again, because felix littkemann (18), antonio dominguez (19) & philipp landmann (20), are ready to start a disco revolution. being influenced by jazz, indie rock, french house, hip hop the three got together and started to produce french house based on disco samples from the late 70s and early 80s, creating their own trademark sound which is so fresh!

harvey mckay delivers everything a dj can ask for - a great track plus all the tools to work & have fun with!

the all city harmony show rolls into ornate towers with the a masdelux session ep. kicking proceedings off >i see< is endowed with the kind of boompty bass that immediately brings to mind julio bashmore, complemented by gently cooing vocals and synths that drop in and out of the mix sweetly. the mid section breakdown is divine! moodymanc takes a good long hard look in the mirror with his deep reflection mix of >i see<, stripping back the original to create a genuine late night burner - exactly the kind of quality weve come to expect from this producer. this shares the flips side with another original achs cut, namely >extra funk<, which shapes a broken beat around some killer boogie bass and cleverly arranged funk sample

nice price deal !!! we are very proud to announce the debut release of a truly outstanding new musical project called >the goon show<. not much is known about this project, as the tracks reached us totally out of the blue, so to speak. the project consists of two experienced electronic wizards situated in berlin and is the first joint effort in the music world. their debut 12 inch features the wonderful and almost impossible to categorize track >angel band<, or as american music journalist philip sherburne put it:> the production on is really spongy and weird and enveloping, and the voice works so well with it, , this is really good, and i dont say that lightly!<. further admirers and supporters are the djs and producers osunlade, efdemin, adultnapper and many others. >angel band< comes in three versions, an acappella, a dub and the blasting original. as a bonus track, which is not just a b-side, but would be an amazing a-side on many other releases comes the beautifully melancholic >the grass<, of which our dear friend aksel schaufler aka superpitcher has said: >i love it and was in tears while listening to -the grass- !< . limited copies, get them while they re out there!

poker flat welcomes new artist show-b to the ranks! mathias schober is the talent behind this new and exciting production project - having already released on the respected compost black label - and now announces a whole new batch of funk laden, truly deep electronic jams. >far down< is a swirling and all-encompassing tech-house journey. characterized by pitching synths and focused percussion, the building track really ignites as its slow burning themes come to the fore and a remarkable moment is created. the technical and dubbed-out >time comes< is a superb example of a modern electronic hybrid. crossing heavy dub stabs and delay-washed fx with thick, room filling synths and exceptional detailing, this inventive and textural track is pure home-grown and highly recommended! a dub version is also included which focuses on show-bs stylish drum fills and great feel for tension in the arrangement

do you know this uncontrollable hunger to penetrate the grooves with a record needle? well, good news for all vinyl junkies. german based geoff bell shows his unique talent on >the freddy eiser show< ep while he starts off our brandnew series of 12 inch records! his music is excellent dodgy crisp & very authoritative. on the other hand he is combining euphoric, funkiness that is crying out for sunshine-barbeque with tofu burgers.

dixie yure is the incarnation of contemporary oldschool house music from seville. after some digital only releases it is about time for some haptic experience. with the 10“ record „show me satisfaction“ on berlin-based label fenou his sound is rotating on turntables for the first time. monotonous minimalism ain’t dixie yures world. the sound tends more towards 2step and builds a homogeneous and pleasant mixture with classical house elements and vocal parts. you just cant deny yourself dancing the >chicken dance< and stepping like hell! thanks to the funky improvisations extending over the whole track you wont get bored even after listening to >show me< for the hundredth time. the a-side is just fun - in the club as well as on your couch. you wont miss the low-pitched vocals on the b-side either as they are typical for the spanish producer. >satisfaction< is a little more reduced than >show me< but is enhanced with jazz elements such as pianos and saxophones. it shows that wind instruments in electronic music dont have to be annoying tribal elements. in this example acoustic instruments do not just get mixed up with house music but merge to one groove – absolutely rocking tune!

finally, jd twitch remixes >nocturnal creatures< from space systems second album!

his name gives away the fact that he is italian, otherwise you’d be forgiven for thinking a chicago native produced these tracks. napoletano already spoiled us with his releases on labels like mathematics and yore, now he goes back to basics for hhyr. three tracks that show the original spirit of raw, emotive, jacking music. one word: madness

a relative newcomer, having released a couple of lovely records on the conya label, and another on hertlich, larse also hosts the friday night show on germanys biggest youthradio >1live klubbing< since more than 10 years. now we proudly present the talented dortmund based producer on we love this. >i got a feeling< is a beautifully balanced, expertly produced cut that soars through the post-disco-nuhouse skies like a flaming rocket bound for the dancefloor. low-slung, totally groovy and decidedly disco edged, a thick wall of classic drums, addictive vocals and top class studio finesse make this a superb new release for larse. hamburg based solomun adds his hand to the mix, with a wonderfully deep yet pumping remix of the original. calling on some classic chicago vibes, with his trademark dry and crisp sound, they diynamic boss doesnt dissapoint in this straight up late night roller. larse finishes off the mix with >off the ground< - a heavy funk laden jam that once again drips with class and a great love of the old salsoul days. euphoric vocals shine through in this summery, anthemic slice of modern electronic soul.

the latest release from relish recordings is from label boss headman. private show is the 2nd single from the upcoming headman album 1923. the synth filled dancefloor jam is the culmination of old school manhead with the modern headman trademarks - heavier basslines and big drums. the track features vocal great steve mason (man behind betaband/blackaffair/kingbiscuittime) who has set a somewhat deviant mood to the track with some smooth vocals, making this a track better to listen to rather than read about. private show also comes with remixes from relish new-comers tape to tape, who have come through with a two part remix of the track as well as a remix from gommas telonius

full artwork sleeves. electronic / dubstep label kinnego records started by boxcutter out of northern ireland is back! after the success of the first release (by boxcutter himself) he introduces the masses to a producer named space dimension controller... the techno funk alias of 19 year old jack hamill. following on perfectly from boxcutter and kinnego fluxs a familiar sound on kgo001, it features 2 tracks of deep, loved up electro. equally inspired by both the tape warped soundtrack to garth merenghis darkplace and early aphex twin, jacks all analogue production gives his tracks a timeless sound thats a mile away from contemporary electro and house. the beats are low slung and funky, and the melodies are addictive and show a natural flair. on the love quadrant, a girl / boy vocal exchange sets the scene while the track builds momentum, before the whole thing spaces off on a sweet minimoog solo. on the flip, electropod 250 collision has a deep 808 pulse and flanged bass, topped off with detroit inspired melodies and blurred out reverbs.

this track has been getting rinsed out by dj ez regularly on his kiss 100 show and out and about in club land. hes had it on an exclusive for about 2 months, and hes sure made use of that honour. its an instant crowd pleaser with its catchy female vocal hook & fat production. kinda like bassline garage meets booty breaks...

show-b is making a triumphal procession through the heaven of arrangements and the musically modernistic housemusic. complex, but fleet footed, his rhythmic structures produce a soulful symbiosis with the music of long gone times of dance music. traditional elements, such as flutes or rhodes unite with sub basses, crisp kick drums and detriotesque bass lines, culminating in show-bs own definition of housemusic. shallowness, ordinarity and a simple sensation of contentment are not part of this definition.

includes chriss ortega mix, original club mix, reza remix and sunset & sunrise remix!!

on the 5th release on his label, fanu has first brought forth an electro infused romp from cycom. petrol has those 808 claps & a rumbling bassline to it, but his electro heaven is of the darker nature, booming like a drug pulsating through your veins, cooling your tension while giving you some heavy visuals. on the flipside, bad matter & martsman lock horns & show you that, you can keep the same intensity in your tracks while still experimenting with different drum kits.

homewreckers - close your eyes til the morning the amazing success of their last release >its about time< challenged the homewreckers to push their sound a little further out. >close your eyes til the morning< is hardcore groove with a great, burning synth bass that funks along until new york singer dennis legree brings some excitement to the proceedings with his tremendous voice. its pure underground deep house - intense, abstract and dramatic. no wonder that felix da housecat and marshall jefferson supported those guys when they were teenagers! a vital alternative to the melodic clichés and rhythmic orthodoxy of the electronic music mainstream. langenbergs remix gets the b-side under way. backed up by a strong beat it rolls steadily ahead with unflagging propulsion. next up is >hot hot hot<, an exciting up-tempo number which gives kemo another opportunity to show his lyrical feeling while >smile< slows down the pace easing into a down-home hip-hop affair. this is the second of four records representing the vinyl collectors edition of the homewreckers forthcoming album >american ruhr<
