played by 2000 and one, giles smith, nick curly, tobi neumann.... solomun is the owner of diynamic records in hamburg, top notch producer and a splendid dj as well, so a team up with jackmate came only natural. the first two pieces they deliver here, show their love for lush detroit-ish soundscapes, combined with demanding drums and repetitive chord progressions parexcellance! carnivale is like a growing storm on a hot summer day, building its tense with beautiful string arrangements and coming to a climax in rolling thunders of pure bliss! factory is a special little gem of its own, that could run for days, so subtle and charming is the flow of this early morning grower. highly recommended stuff

rapidly emerging american pairing matt nordstrom and orlando villegas are amongst the most in demand production duos in techno. previous works for saved records (lucky drawls) and remixes of the marco bailey and steve mac have climbed the sales charts and drawing high praise from dubfire adam beyer, anja schneider, danny tenaglia, christian smith and loco dice

after being charted throughout the past few months with his label s previous release >slower lov<, cesare vs disorder continues to deliver the goods on his >mean< imprint with a divine release from long-term friend and musician ollie silva aka canary fontaine. here we are again with some obscure yet funky, driving and danceable material, the recognisable trademark sound that mean has been carving for the past two years. there s a certain latin vibe throughout the whole ep that shows ollie s chilean background, especially when he adds his live musical skills with congas, toms, guitars, basses, voices, anything he can get his hands on! the productions on this release are delicate and refined, with >clothes horses< being a deep rhythmic and harmonious jazz adventure, while >arizona creeping< and >cindy says so (feat. eddie smith aka zippy)< result in some very solid minimalist bouncy techno, two powerful alternatives that simply roll many danceable and percussive elements into one package, perfect for dark rooms during journey times. cesare vs disorders noctambular version of >cindy says so< will be on the vinyl release to add some spice to the dancefloor in his usual psichadelic rockin way.

nice price deal !!! >central heating< in 3 styles! not just a remix, but 2 reinterpretations in drum n bass and dubstep team up with the rockin original to spread even more heat!

austrian born, munich resident dj enne (aka robert ennemoser) has found favor with both djs and labels alike. following up releases on compost, permanent vacation & others robert turns in a lazy funk, analog disco groover. robert spent several years in milan djing and the vibe obviously left an impression... his pleasant surprise track has just the right mix of laid back beats, mediterranean grooves and dancefloor sensibilities. john selway (one half of legendary nyc duo selway & smith) tackles the deeper side of his personality and nudges up the tempo and grooveology just a notch.

under the stewardship of alan fitzpatrick, 8 sided dice has earned the right to be considered one of the most exciting labels to emerge in 2008. tracks 9 hours later, germ, ghost train and mau yin have prompted the likes of carl cox, dubfire, john digweed, nic fanciulli and christian smith to sing alan? praises and catapulted the 8 sided dice on to want-lists of fans across the globe. having notched up four releases under his own steam, alan now turns to his contemporaries

in 2002, carl craig was at the centre of a collaboration between some of detroits most talented musicians old and new, including motown session players percy hughes and ron otis - the result of which was the spellbinding detroit experiment. one of the highlights of this session was their re-interpretation of donald byrd and larry mizells classic think twice, which was transformed into a sublime and unique jazz-house hybrid by this disparate ensemble of techno and r&b heavyweights. to continue the theme laid down by the detroit experiment, we have enlisted the skills of the multi-talented henrik schwarz - no stranger to fusing musical styles. his amazing remix effortlessly combines organic and electronic elements, to create a stirring piece of modern electronic dance music which has already taken the roof off parties across europe and the us, with pre-release plays from djs as diverse as ame, giles smith, justin martin, dixon and kev beadle.

after 2 successful eps and massive remixes for metronomy and whomadewho its now time for more discodeine vinyl action. this third ep called tom select is definitly dedicated to the dancefloor... frankly, the track speaks for itself but if you need some influences lets say smith n hack/lfo/frankie bones... but you should know by now that discodeine is only sounding like discodeine right? the remixes are provided by some people that we admire for a long time: la horse (danton eeprom & ivan smagghe) and joakim. la horse provided a trippy remix, with live drums, electronic wizzardy and insanely beautiful pop harmonies while joakim is more on that nasty techno vibe we all love.

ealier support by chloe, giles smith and karotte. maik loewen was already infected by musiccalitis in early years. and there was also his increasing fascination for beats. it did not take long till he started playing the drums and synthesizer. with the tb 303 being one of his first instruments he immediately became addicted to electronic sounds and became quite skilled in using these new devices in his own productions. during his apprenticeship at the recording studios he produced his first tracks. at the same time he started his collaboration with oliver hacke and gabriel ananda. they supported him to get his first record deals. following his first releases on tonsport >arnika ep<, karmarouge >mezcal ep< and trapez >one year one month< and remix projects for walter dahn und jorge gebauhr, his latest ep on poikerflat >even if you sleep<, maik finally appears on karmarouge: the >backcountry camping ep<. his deep understanding for functional sounds and extremly pumping beats, combined with the right mixture of genius and insanity, enables mike to playfully produce upfront club-compatible music. >i dont like musical restrictions, what counts is the feeling of the moment, expressed in acoustic waves<. a perfect mixture that metamorphoses the dancefloor into a seething gladiators arena and wich become one of this genius minimal techno anthems who seems to fly higher more and more. not to forget the huge portion of groovy funkiness. the three tracks on the ep nicely explore different nuances of maik loewens present sound
