ffms premium label for deep & minimal sounds qualitative high above standard dance stuff is back from the summer break. traditionally lnz mastermind pascal feos himself lights the lnz release oven and adds his label cataloque with two endurance track runners. it may surprise, how airly the runner with starting number 1 floats through the colourful wood of golden october, cheered on by moogy mild hookline that strokes the drum body. from time to time the race track passes some clearings, the chilling atmosphere of pascal feos side-project aural float waves at the horizon. but then he trots on and on embraced by the feeling of runners high. with the racing number 2 the >generator child< starts athletic but thoughtful on his tom tom-dymanic soles, more and more leading into an 808-hypnotic run on black asphalt. a >generator child< speech sample trails off in the dusk and an lfo-spiralled veil of mist twirls over the head of the scared kid.

exotic modern tech-house track with a warm female vocal and some ethno influence

a welcome return to these labels with some killer cuts on 1 hot sampler kenny dope & roy davis also return with the uk representing on the flipside

this is quite simply one of the most glorious records you will hear this year. it would be easy to lazily reference it against classic period rephlex/planet mu stuff (oops, i just did!), and indeed it appears to share some of the same heritage (even going so far as to feature a remix of rephlex artist global goon in its tracklisting) - but chris leary aka ochre is obviously a man on his own mission. gorgeously lush, but at the same time super-funky…as electronic as kraftwerk starring in a remake of tron, yet somehow as pastoral and organic as edward elgar…much like his label-mate ed chamberlain, leary manages that tricky task of being supremely technical in his programming and arrangements, but without losing the heart and soul of the music amidst all the studio trickery. you know that old chestnut often said when referring to vintage or classic music, >they dont make them like that any more<? well they do…and here it is! simply fantastic.

here we have three tracks from the >some other country< album (k7 records 2007) smile and receive - roger 23 mix : featuring cassy (panorama bar) on vocals . remixed by the analog freak , roger 23 (playhouse /240 volts) hailing from deepest saarbrucken . super sub chicago house track , perfect for late night early morning playing .......pure analog heaven! imagine a morning at studio 54 projected into 2008 - wonky goodness. claktronic - experimental live percussion, flutes, and strange ramblings from the voice of daisy densham (aged 4) , add atmosphere to this swiss inspired house tune . why swiss you ask ? well i keep hearing cowbells! a very trippy vibe that gets into your brain, you will be hearing the loop all day. distress and calling - a blissful philip glass inspired sub bass growler , euphoric arpeggiated voices pad over the deep bass and tight snare drum , making up a fine ep of classic swayzak ........ the bigger the system the better this one sounds. crystal clear production all the way

fresh new electro label coming straight outta berlin ! and by electro we dont mean some lame-ass four-to-the-floor shite soaked in distortion and full of all the latest ‘hotsamples, fresh from a timenspace cd. this is the real deal, six tracks of well thought out machine music, where the funk is in the circuits… automated syndrome 1 defines the first set of symptoms which robots (or other artificial intelligence) show while being exposed to a series of certain stimulants. to acquire information regarding any artificial intelligence amongst your family, friends or colleagues the bass4bots label is now proud to be offering you all the data necessary in one complete package. get yours before the others do!

the italo freak disco guy from rome is back. three tracks of advanced acid meets italo meets arpeggio funk. imagine the clone boys getting mad in a full moon summer night – on some funny drugs at the beach of rimini. sometimes in the early 90ies. welcome the future of italo! hands in the air!

well, the summer festival season is near its end, time to bring you some of the raw stompers that youve been dancing to this season! greg notill and i will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger: if there ever was a famous movie quote to capture the pure essence of the friendly frenchmans track it would be this line from pulp fiction. fierce beats, frantic percussion and even some acid influences. this one has it all! motormorfoses eto and gab, the devistating duo from brazil are now operating from spain and though the name may have changed, the output remains the same. pure relentless beats and power! after opening their track with an electro type bassline and some nice broken beats, pure havoc kicks in soon as the beat drops. hardtrax half of the hardtrax vs. jackhamma liveact and the german bridge between hardtechno and hardcore techno. the dark force recordings co owner comes up with an intriguing brew of raw beats, precise positioned percussion and an 80s type of choir sound that will simply blast you away!dj ogi the torch holder of the croatian techno scene recently spawned us with numerous strong releases on labels such as submissions and cannibal society. we are pleased to say he maintains this line and even raises the bar a little by incorporating some oldschool elements. bet you cant control your feet when you hear this track

the original mix by duomek takes the form of their musical ideals: house, deep house and minimal. no doubt it aims to the most select dance floors. jon gurd is the one chosen to make the first remix, that for sure will make a lot of harm in the floors. talking about jon gurd is to talk about one of britain?s top class artist of the last years that djs all around the world, produces exquisite music, hold the label killawatt and runs his own program in ministry of sound radio. his productions are habitual in sets of artists like hernan cattaneo, james zabiela o carl cox. tech house of its best of purest kind. finally we find the vision of mintone through inigo ourezabals eye, the 50 percent of monomachine. this dj and producer from zaragoza has been recognized in this last two years as one of the best artist in the spanish music scene. paradigma, wit, leftroom o immigrant are some of the labels that have released his work. this time he bets for a very effective techno that will catch the ear of the lovers of this style.

last years breakspoll best single winners far too loud take their audio toolbox and set about dismantling the vocal monster innocent from the album. featuring the distinctive vocals of yolanda and some ungodly sonic trickery, bass action and arrangement tweakery this mix is really quite special.

ah, its time for some eerie minimal techno again. dry, percussive, hypnotic, trippy. when sunday turns into monday and the week starts exactly like the last one ended – on the dancefloor, propelled by a thumping bassdrum. dima is a bar 25 regular and has released on beatsreet (another berlin institution of endless afterhour journeys) before. this one is his bar 25 debut, tried and tested on various occasions and legendary sasomo moments. his four tracks dive deep into a nocturnal techno habitat, where percussion- sounds fade away in the twilight and the groove just won’t stop. there is no way out, just give in to its pleasures

this record has been in the making for some time. originally, hott 22 created a track called, &#147,i feel love&#148,. bonnie bailey heard the song, loved the track, and wanted to write lyrics to it. bonnie and eric kupper went into the studio with hott 22&#146,s track to record and produce bonnie&#146,s lyrics for it. after we heard bonnie&#146,s performance, we were extremely excited, and asked the legendary eric kupper to create a new remix. shortly after, we asked thomas gold to work his magic on the track and he created some real gems to an already solid package. finally, the alter ego live element had to get in on the project as well, and produced two more floorfillers.

this time contributions come from australia, the old europe, the usa…, from all over really. some of the featured artists are signed and glorious, others are virtually unknown and live in bedsits. some will release their future albums on kitsune and others already have a&rs in search of the next big thing biting their nails.

super cool classic chicago house rooted tunes and some drone / electronica inspired pieces - highly recommended!

mr strom is back ones again in disguise on east records with some under the counter funkobootaliciousness! aimed straight at those danceflors that need to get some movement on them.

following on from lcd soundsystems 45:33, nike continue to commission the great and good from the worlds global music scene to contributeexclusive tracks for their nike run campaign. such was the demand for this track, that the boys decided to concoct some exclusive alternative versions which would be more useful for a spot of dancefloor running. so, here you have it, four killer interpretations of a super hyped cut from one of the uks most celebrated acts

proper hardtechno music for your brain

after the success of the beautiful and sultry ‚move with me‘ on poker flat 97, alongside patrick chardronnet‘s blissfully deep ‚days like these‘, david durango is back with three mesmerising tracks on dessous. like a dark, empty night made warm by the pure, reviving light of day, ‚striptease‘ is an epic tale of love and resolution. skipping, light percussion flourishes are joined by memorable chord phases that wash through and over the senses. a tender and sincere detroit style breakdown is then skillfully danced out with teasing, climactic moments of tension. ‚human‘ is by comparison a lighter journey, as durango trusts his rhythmic instincts and pulls out some fresh and airy hypnotising synth stutters and a rich palette of spacious percussion. neo-chicago stlye, ‚japanese revenge‘ is a faster paced deep-down groover that works chugging organ stabs and jacking beats along with glorious room-filling bending synth glides. it‘s a versatile track that sums up durango‘s unmistakable talent for creating an atmosphere and a celebratory, old-school vs new school vibe. durango‘s skilled, un-rushed style is the key here, and leads to three very unique dancefloor excursions, each with their own directions, moods and tingling electronic atmospheres.

many international top-notch djs are already playing and supporting this tune like laurent garnier, gusgus, raudive aka oliver ho, len faki, john starlight, hernan cattaneo, james talk, perc, glimpse, ed davenport, chris fortier, p.toile, savas pascalidis, tony senghore, oliver deutschmann, mario piu or mtv-man markus kavka. after many years and releases on some of the most important labels of the electronic music-scene like for example liebe+detail, areal or trapez and countless remixes for artists like dominik eulberg, move d or solomun, hamburg/belgrade-based artist denis karimani aka remute is coming up with his own, self-titled label, which will be the future homebase just for his most uncompromising, rocking and surprising tracks. the 1st release called zuendli is an unmistakable groove-monster and is already driving people wild since weeks and months as a part of remute s highly acclaimed livesets all over the world with grinding and rotating sequences, unconventional sounds and a killer break

class71 return to the constantly in-form four:twenty following the diamond door/seaphone 12 debut which won fans of just about every decent house dj around, and what a follow up it is! alba adriatica is a 13 minute excursion in to detroit flavoured house and is as subtle as it is memorable. a rounded bassline provides the movement while delicate, dubby fx create a hypnotic vibe which underpins a blissful live saxophone and rising keys. the summer is not over yet. always being attentive to djs needs, four:twenty have also included a dub for the saxo-phobes and if that wasnt enough, they bring in the legendary move d for further mixes. with a back catalogue which includes celebrated labels such as modern love, uzuri, city centre offices and liebe*detail, move d is the toast of underground house music and has delivered a vocal and dub mix of impeccable standards. utilising the fm bass and bringing the chords up in the mix, mr. d (as nobody calls him) creates a densely layed percussive dub mix which provides a perfect kickless track for creative djing while his vox mix adds both kick and some sparse but beautiful vocal touches. this is another winner from a label which continually searches out fresh talent and is more than worthy of your attention

no doubt these are the two singles through which the dj & producer maurizio gubellini became famous within the international dance scene...inside this ep you will find these masterpieces remixed by some of the hottest remixers of the moment... once again: good job gube!

panthers used to play aggressive post hardcore before their style morphed into a somewhat sober version of anthemic stoner rock. they released albums on both troubleman and vice records. goblin city is the lead track from their second record, the trick. holy ghost! requested to work on goblin city. they then delivered one of the most relentlessly snappy disco dubs in quite some time. panthers also asked run roc to do a mix of the song and he came up with an excellent old school acid house version. this single is a true dfa family affair, bringing together good friends, musicians, and creative allies from the past and for the future. family reunions are not supposed to be this much fun.

over the last 4 years mouseville has seen eric prydz (under his cirez d moniker) deliver some truly landmark moments in music with tracks such as knockout and control freak really setting the bench mark for others to follow. here we have an equally devastating track only this time produced by paulo mojo and jim rivers - two producers whos starts have been very much on the rise over the last couple of years with both of them having produced killer tracks for labelks such as oosh, misfit and saw. the track is an absolute killer - a driving groover with its catchy vocal refrains, sharp drums and funky bassline. on the flip the eric prydz remix turns the original on its head with deep chords and pads creating a very moody yet powerful reinterpretation. big support from eric prydz, sebastian leger, john digweed, paulo mojo and steve angello

after some smooth records with a summer vibe on rotary cocktail here comes some more club orientated stuff from spektre (u.f.o). inclusive a trippin rework of agaric!!!
