tiger supported by... rob da bank, kiko, markus kavka, mihalis safras, justin berkovi, ivan smagghe, orde meikle... moonbeam are back on traum! the russian brothers had a great year and have been voted as one of the top 100 djs worldwide by uk dj mag, in december 2009. we think they are wonderful, dedicated people who really deserve winning this award. with their new a-side track >tiger< moonbeam show their timeless quality and their deep knowledge of music, writing a seemingly simple but gigantic track. if you want to express in words what this track is like you might say it is a hybrid of joe beltrams >energy flash< fuelled with a melodic note and a lot of post-techno feeling. creating a revival of rave which so many people speak about, but so few actually reflect in theirproductions! the energy of this dark monumental new school acid track is counteracted by the two tracks on the flipside >land of the lost (strict mix)< and >zoo<. the b1-track >land of the lost< sounds like a soundtrack for a film set in a ghost-town in the midwest of the united states. a track that travels like a camera does... through different rooms of a deserted mansion. the b2-track >zoo< is the beat track of the record. it relies on its cool driving sequences and the hypnotic feeling it creates through them. adding small changes here and there that keep the track constantly going.

clone classic cuts continues to dig in the crates to bring back forgotten or obscure records from the past! this is 3 tracks by da posse (produced by hula... one of the outthere brothers... and with maurice joshua, k fingers & martell). strings & its my life are chicagos take on detroit techno... a rare release that sounds like a early derrick may record (think the dance) but maybe slightly more straight forward (as one might expect from chicago). a rare piece in house and techno history since this is one of the rare examples of a record that doesnt show the clear difference between chicago and detroit in the late 80s. this record most likely got produced within 1 year after rhythm = rhythms legendary nude photo and strings of life releases (both 87 and this came out in 88). as extra bonus track we have the groove. a phat bass driven chicago acid track that still rocks it. another fine piece of powerful dance music history back in the spot light!

excellent chicago styled deephouse cuts with elements of soul , funk and disco too... very happy feeling.. very very serious dj food

new project produced & composed by franck roger. already support by sascha dive, gorji, tedd patterson, osunlade, dj gregory…,...

>i have always had close ties with fabric and this time they have really paid off. fabric were putting together a new cd called >elevator music< that featured a lot of the new uk drum n bass/house hybrid material coming out right now. they sent me a couple tracks by a new guy named julio bashmore which i really liked. literally the next night i had a gig in bristol and julio came to the show and gave me even more tracks. these were my favorite two tracks of his. i really like this mix of jungle and house. i also like this new breed of producer who isn’t scared or mired in tradition. i’m definitely feelin it!<

another show stopper from french outfitles umins. its all about the remixes on this dope three tracker, as home and garden kick things off with a tough, synth heavy retro 80s mix thats a totally new sound for these boys. on the flip brett johnson shows why hes the man, killing the floor with a truly bugged out take on the original thats just got prime time madness written all over it. sounds like a bit of plastikmans spastik in there! icon on point with an essential underground release.

strong minimal techno release with balls from sinisa tamamovic from bosnia. the way he creates atmospheres with only a few sounds, perfectly fitting breaks and unique soundmodelling show his outstanding talent, certainly a guy to watch. additionally alex bau delivers a remix, and well, what else could you expect as another sure floorshot from mr. techno. go grab this just as all the topjocks before...early plays: alex bau, len faki, kai kinkel...

marco bernardi was an obvious choice for who got to do the first album on frustrated funk. representing his most delicate compositions ranging from freaky minimalistic electro trickery to the sweetest and intense excursions in the field of what they use to call intelligent techno . we simply picked out his best moments along the line and put it all together for this brilliant presentation. with this piece of art we show again that we don t give a shit about new styles, trends and hypes. we just want to deliver a very sweet package that you will still be playing and cherish in 15+ years from now. this deluxe double vinyl album will be sweetened with hand stamped label art, hand made screen printed sleeves and pressed on pretty pink transparent vinyl to make this package extra special. enjoy!!

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.

ryo murakami whos recent releases include dessous and moriss audio and is known for leading the younger generation artists announces his newest release on his very own label panrecords. the promo is already being heavily played on the jus-ed radio show. the tunes of the analog drum machine coming from the bottom of the deep seas along with our friend amrs quiet yet crazy voice sampling echoes on a1s lost it and a deep arrangement is added to the coupling track dive a elevate. the fat analog synthesizer by dublins lerosal that resembles chicago and detroit sounds are remixed with the rhythm machines low range sounds. the sense of flow from beginning to end is at 90.5. the complete 4 songs are sent from tokyo out to the world scene

cyber dance records unleash their fifth record entitled somewhere out on the nightside. the ep consists of four tracks introducing a new batch of artists to the cyber dance cartel, brassica, serious lover, bill ambrose and melanie houston. brassica is the music of hackney bedroom producer michael anthony wright. hes had a couple of records on dissident and has a few more lined up for some other quite well-known labels over the next year. ballo dei morti was conceived one dark christmas day in milan and features the chorus of slayers dead skin mask vocoded in italian. the track has been eagerly awaited on vinyl after several months of attention through blogs such as 20 jazz funk greats and vice magazines music blog. serious lover is the brain-child of london based producer sam ryan who fuses electro-soul influences of early jam and lewis production with a more modern, harder sound, employing vintage synths and archaic drum machines in the studio and electronic musicians for the full live show. bill ambrose has been producing music on his collection of vintage synths and drum machines for over a decade, working behind the scenes as a producer or engineer on several releases. he wrote paranoid specifically for cyber dance earlier this year. melanie houston is a dj, musician and producer from london with a passion for dark, emotional music and a previous history in berlin where she djd and contributed music for the cult techno label tresor. with influences incorporating everything from avant-garde electronics to 80s synth pop, melanies as renowned for her skills on the turntables in the mix as for her abilities in the studio.

handsette recordings return with yet another essential release! having blown up in the clubs and been begged and begged to be released, we now feel its time to unleash the beast that is posthumans lander on the world. lander is a real monster of a track. stuttering rave stabs meet fresh, driving beats and a wall of bass. one of those tracks that make people go, wtf is this? in a club! currently being caned by major djs across the country and getting radio 1 and solid steel show play, this is a big, big track. on the flip, cursor miner takes the track and flips it left, right and upside down! dropping the tempo and changing the emphasis from a stabby rave monster to a bass driven crunky wobbler, it is a fresh take whilst losing none of the energy of the original.

kraken are rolling again, with their second release in as many weeks (check out krkn009), and its good to have the denmark based dons back! very little is known about a side artist and la resident jaybird, but im sure plenty of people will be on the hunt for info after this little number drops. absolutely relentless, crushing dubstep music, a refreshingly nasty little number reminiscent in atmosphere to one of krakens earliest releases eye of the demon by wolfman (jsl), this tune is currently tearing up clubs worldwide, with support from 2000f and notably featuring on hatcha & crazy ds kiss fm radio show, you re gunna love this one! legendary kraken artist jsl pops up on the flip with a brand new beat, kept relatively under wraps this one comes out of nowhere and smacks is straight round the chops like kimbo slice! act quickly on this one, it wont last.

a new environ... always something to look out for. here a retro kevin saunderson meets mark kinchen work out... big fun meets show me love. designed to become a hit. comes with a morgan geist remix. hit.

limited edition clear vinyl , pressed only 333 copies !! this is your chance to own a few of the most hard rockin underground classics

bot ox is one of many side projects for french label owner and music tastemaker cosmo vitelli, in partnership with julien briffaz (better known as one half of tekel). their last single >crashed cadillac< was one of the highlights from i m a cliches moments of a crisis compilation from earlier this year. this latest effort is a real slow burner, with the misty voice of anna jean flowing over top of lo-fi melodies and blistering rhythms. weve also heard the flip side for the release – >bearded lady motorcycle show< – which is a more aggressive electro growler.

mothership transmission 027 – maetrik the >space chronic< ep was the biggest selling record on mothership last year and for good reason. maetrik has an incredible knack for innovative and original sound design. he is also able to package these sounds inside great arrangements and very dj friendly beats. this is what really separates his records from the rest of the sound design experts. >show me< is the perfect example of maetriks amazing talents. after several minutes of a super funky techno groove (2 things that dont usually go together) we find ourselves at the drop. and this drop is one of the best we have ever heard. it sounds like an angry wasp is flying full speed through the inside of your brain. the riff will melt your mind. >simpleman< on the other side is a great example of maetriks versatility. you might be expecting a hardcore techno bit but instead we hear a very groovy, almost reserved jazz techno fusion joint, but still with the heavy beats to keep it real for the clubs.

mija recordings have hit the scene with a bang, with a track from their first release making it onto emerson todds >electric< mix on eq recordings (android cartel – return of the saint – alan fitzpatrick remix), and carl cox (global radio show) and richie hawtin both playing the jamie anderson remix of the >celtec twinz – sorbit orbit<. next up is the labels strongest release yet, >miniminds – junk dancer<.

mika vainios four tracks on >vandal ep< show his preference for analogue working. he consequently develops a dynamic sound we all remember from pansonic, working himself from a rather abstract structure towards arrangements which more and more suit a club setting. straight beats, noise and the denial of the usual clicks&cuts elements are the ingredients for his contemporary version of electronic club music. the quality of his music will not only convince on the dancefloor but also on the home stereo. mikas passion for dynamics, reduction and industrial oscillates between these three cornerstones and what his sound stands for: being physical, raw and profound beyond all cliches.

memphis first performance through alma is le petit. for this first launching he has been surrounded by gifted people. on one hand, mr. plaupez, who has given a more enjoyable and danceable spark to his review of le petit and takes you right to the dance floor!! on the other, the producer of the moment, the serbian gramophonedzie with his why dont you. this theme can range from commercial to the underground. played by artists such as denis ferrer and frequently heard on radio. in this case, gramophonedzie, show all his heavy basses and a groovy sound that connects serbia strait to chicago. supports: tiger stripes, dj vibe, nick holder, dj hell, axwell, nick warren, mikael stavonstrand, paco osuna, ken ishii, jim masters, dylan drazen, francesco farfa

nice price deal !!! first sampler from his new album. a brilliant combination of acoustic and electronic sounds, that covers the great black music full spectrum : soul, house, jazz, broken beat, doo wop, nu soul, afro beat, latin, funk. allen hoists music spreads innovative grooves, authenticity & happiness. its simply modern soul music... with soul! but words can only do so much, so listen and let the music explain to you why he is called the prodigal allen hoist ...

slamming bassheavy old skool infected house bomb

their debut ep comes on alphahouse records, and is turning heads as a late-night monster. need a mental picture? imagine classic g-man, strobe lights, smoke machines, and a cavernous berghain style freak show. the duo slyly manage to push the tracks in many directions, looking back to a time before ableton-warped bootlegs and cheap production techniques, all the while maintaining a standard that feels fresh and experimental. some of us are searching for more. with this record, we approach closer to that groove than ever.

this is quenums first release on clapper!
a side: cargo
this track is techno with a touch of old school, but decidedly modern, not nostalgic. it s built on a groovy techno rhythm that quenum knows to do so well, with a recurring agitative sound that takes you one level higher. the earthy music, rooted by the feet in the ground, grabs the hips.
b side: ouidah
welcome to west africa and the port city of ouidah, home of the quenum clan. this track is classic quenum, clear-headed techno influenced by african rhythm, hypnotic percussions and inimitable touches that add warmth to the sober mix. this one is for the head, but without letting go of the hips.
dachshund and quenum will alternate their work on each release, so look out for the upcoming clapper 003 by dachshund. in the meantime, check out this track and enjoy the show!

london based masters of the groove berkson & what are back on pokerflat with another sublime excursion into deep flowing hypnotic and modern house music. the pairs infamous live show has taken them far and wide, delivering their detailed and unparalleled electronics from berlin to miami and back... now their story continues with the >ghosts ep<. the extended, jacking trip that is >ghosts< is a strong grooving reduced house track in the purest sense of the phrase. tough, tight chicago style beats flare and snap as a melancholic and mysterious synth motif dances around the funk-meets-dub bass sequence. all manner of ethereal spoken word passages, uplifting vocal meanderings and cuts are then intertwined in a complex ambiguous narrative that fills the room with the ghosts of house and soul music gone by... understated, uncompromising and super functional! next up the boys lay down a tribal house groover, full of thick keys, richly embellished drums and spiritual vibes a-plenty. no doubt first jammed out during one of their long studio sessions, the live feel and flowing arrangement opens up beautifully with soft key flourishes and tender vocal hooks.

in form and informed moves from the heavy artillery imprint. fresh off the back of a storming garage match up with el b for the soul motive crew, labelhead rossi b and long term cohort luca smack it around some more with some utterly deranged bassline power manoeuvres, completely stripping off any lactic sounds sometimes associated with that scene, all leaving a pristine and utterly rampant rhythm mastery on show. i.d drops a sensual garage mover which delivers equal parts ruffage and sensuality with just the right amount of piquancy for club play, really delicious stuff . 501 runs the dances ragged with a banging rave-ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied dances ragged with a banging rave ready and heavily synth inflected side long cut for all the half-step massive dem rounding out a confident, varied and complete package from this fine bristol label.
