mule musiq now proudly presents eleven unreleased compositions by roedelius produced between 1990 and 2001. all of them are pearls of electronic deepness that show another side of the man that lives in the little lower austrian town baden. his famouse ultra sweet piano melodies can be heard – but they are not the centre of the productions. instead a more electronic side of his genius call the tune. with a minimalistic approach he let synth melodies highfly while some droney, melancholic atmospheres enlarge in the background.

after some great records on lunar disko, irelands automatic tasty now arrives on photic fields.

ffr start well 2013 with a vinyl release which could be qualified as indecent, featuring an original track by phonokemi, remixed by two well respected artists, the italian nico lahs and the incredible german producer tim xavier. a release with multiple facets: deep, tech house, minimal & mental and chicago-bump-styleas we would come to expect from phonokemi, thoughts is a deep tech house track of extremely high quality. with a deep and pumping baseline and well refined vocals, thoughts is dark and groovy on one hand and an invitation to dance on the other, with absolutely no second thoughts.nico lahs s remix is an ultra-personal and mental re-read of the original track: minimal and elegant, cosmic and organic this track is reminiscent of some of ricardo villalobos s reference productions.finally tim xavier takes us straight to the centre of the universe: the dancefloor. his remix is a real dancing machine… pumping basses, efficient snares and sublime vocals that loop the loop and make this ep a killer release.

following the release of *everything hits*, his debut album for rush hour recordings, this eps three tracks are among the most unique and charming expressions of policys already eccentric aesthetic. let the title track prowl through soundsystems, stabbed with cavernous horns and dogged by the most infectious woodblock in recent memory. employ the ebullient *walk up* to add some fizz with dizzy organ riffs and jaunty brass notes. or perhaps conjure a reflective mood with the tensely plucked bass lines, bittersweet melodies, and live percussion of *thick nostalgia*.

the first vinyl sold out! we must look to the future of techno. some systems require the usual names. there is a generation out of these systems that is growing day by day. a new reality? three representatives of the techno future, a young label that everyone knows already. nothing else to say!

guilty pleasure, we all have them. this release updates and fiddles with some serious guilty pleasures that all but the youngest of music fans will recognise. hod stash is a series of treasures from a label that shall remain nameless but youll no doubt recognise.

eclectic avenue welcomes the inimitable lil mark, one of the true stalwarts of the uk house scene & regular contributor to some of the finest imprints worldwide. here mark expertly shows his unique knack for genre-straddling. kicking off with pulling strings more familiar lil mark territory, with his trademark tight-as-hell percussion & firing bass sat below a freaked-out twisting riff. seriously, this bad-boy takes no prisoners....other than the ones on the dancefloor.... on the flipside we are treated to memoirs, a beautifully sumptous lo-slung roller, utilising a vox refrain over the top of a glorious rolling bass groove. like being comforted by a welcoming acid-bass-hug, this is truly something special. nestled inbetween marks original cuts is e.a.r. main-man j.cub, who offers up an alternate interpretation of memoirsl. taking the vox refrain & weaving it throughout the track like an instrument, j.cub nudges the tempo up slightly & adds a solid percussive backdrop & a reworked bass groove, creating a cut which is deep enough to warm the crowd but packs a solid punch at the same time

eighth release of the promising imprint focussing on warm and soulful vibes between indie, house, soul and downbeat. some well known producers showing their soft skills with own productions or edits / re-works they ever wanted to do. vinyl only! limited edition of 500 copies! comes in clear plasticsleeve!

the small, exquisitely formed take records maintain their reputation for tracks that elegantly live their life on the peripheries of house and techno with this release from one of the labels co-owners, rick grant, and a fine cabal of remixers. the west london-based producers original mix adopts the full widescreen effect, cascading deep bass throbs and a trembling metallic clatter across a ponderous 2-step click. consequences reworking wires in some heavy-ass sub-bass transmissions and a rapid-fire hi-hat rhythm, before jack dixons late-night submission takes a clockwork 4/4 tempo and bolts a springy, low-slung bassline to it, accompanied by layers of velvety synth patterns. crossing is an ep of uniformly consistent quality, where texture and atmosphere take the spotlight.

bpv003 - trouble ep is represented by german artist with ukrainian roots - kashawar. great job done on a side in collaboration with cristi cons, whos remix is about serious mood, groove and mysterious atmosphere.
b side is diverse, bringing some deep, dub feelings, together with minimalistic sound on the other hand.

after some cold long nights on his ranch studio, ole biege, the best cowboy in town, and well-known for his remix of monkey safaris hi-life, presents his new release on super flus label monaberry. stomping sounds, blasting basses and semi-emotional melodies brought to you by this sheep-shaving and creative artist. his voice is his signature, his personality and the dot on the i in these 3 tracks...

another artist from berlin, who cares? we do! simply because this talent need some more exposure and not because of this hometown. his sound differs from the so called berlin sound, fresh and kicking classic techno with two amazing originals called aweheh and that s it . exactly! and as we love talents we invited to have french uprising technoyoungsters m.a.d.a. & plankton on board to deliver a slightly darker approach on aweheh to make it fit also on the dark chambers of berlin techno clubs.

one of the biggest human resources consists of getting possession of ones own ego, carrying it through a path made of liberty, movement, rhythm and communication: soundpark wants to be a part of this and offers something different, to discover.
the fourth vinyl release on this surprising label from italy is delivered by stefano lotti and edunetto. it also includes three remixes of dave manuel, daniel sanchez as well as el mundo & satori. this ep explores different styles and has already received early support by some important djs and media around the world. enjoy this one and stay tuned for more smashing releases on soundpark.

there it is, keinemusik number seventeen. we know what you are thinking. you think you know how it works. you think, those keinemusik fellas will again be doing their little rotation thing, one producer getting a record out after the other, then a workparty-joint venture at some point and then it starts all over again. au contraire! this seventeenth edition is breaking the known beautiful, perfectly curled cycle. just like that, so that no one gets bored. this record here is an appetizer for a collaboration-effort between rampa, &me and nomi, the new york based singer that provided the recent movement of flamboyant disco-queerness with its sexiest and catchiest hooks, teaming up with hercules & love affair and doing her own project jessica 6. side b will take care of everyone who is expecting a safe playing house-rehash of the afore mentioned acts and tenderly let a lashing snare slap every preconception out of sceptic faces.

rummage in some boxes of my favourite record store i found a cover that made me curious. l kubic & tagträumer² - the only thing in this world and on the flipside a remix by alle farben. when placing the needle at the beginning of the vinyl the first sounds were very strange. i thought that must be a record from the 60s lost in the tech-house box but than a straight beat turned everything different. a piano melody slowly sat down firmly in my ear and i was longing to know where the journey takes me. after a while an acidline pushed everything and i was sure at this time this is not a normal 4/4 tech-house record. alle farben remixed the themes very playful and i heard that he gives the elements more pressure for the club. so at the end i bought this one and i cannot imagine taking this unique record ever again out of my record case.

limited to 300 - no barcode! interesting and hot new label from jena. very special organic sound, partly slowpaced partly with a definite eye on the floor but allways with dirt heavy bass and tantalising electronic extrafunk approach , some trks w. strong dark vocals reminding on alton m. ! sick…

eight tracks from one of the worlds leading up and coming producers on two 12 inches in a picture sleeve. initially coming from a background in the musically raucous worlds of 2 step and garage, synkro has, over time, developed a sound that is altogether more introspective, more emotive and more emotionally complex. stepping up here with his second release on legendary apollo records, synkro delivers eight tracks that - while retaining some of the stutter and swing of garage, are far more rooted in the textural world of ambient music for which apollo is famed.

we are super stoked to have this killer ep out on local talk as we have been big fans of both c.r.s.t. and chesus productions for good while now. as these guys are down with both house music and the uk garage scene we get served an ep that combines the best of both styles. the result is a jacked up house release that would work equally well at the classic new jersey zanzibar club or in your dirty london basement club. the first three tracks (monster munch, newark and life) takes us on a deep and jackin house trip with a bouncy garage twist. but to stir things up a lil extra the last track (special) goes all disco with some soulful philly samples ... perfect for the southport weekender crews!

king street return with some gorgeous afro deep house vibes mixes from louie vega & sis. pressed on limited orange vinyl.

we are proud to say that the sampler for the magnificant the dark defender album is one of the most energetic outputs on the citrus label thusfar. these two tracks are already in high demand and will float around for a while after its releasedate. btk delivers some excellent remix work on the b side. on the a side you find heat one of the most slamming tracks on the album.

while sam barker & andreas baumecker are spending time on the road with their impressive hardware live set (during which they fuse tracks from their debut album *transsektoral* with new dancefloor burning material), some of their closest peers have been busy on their own re-workings, resulting in four tracks from their album in new, exciting flavours.

the e.p kicks off with she can dance, a slow burning acid number that has elements of deep, grooving house from the detroit school. in fact, the second cut low control bares the influence of detroit too, with its murky, dubbed-out chords ala luke hess moving into a punchy bassline with minimal but functional drum patterns. proceedings get a bit more bouncy on the smoking hat, a quirky acid romp on the less daft side of ceephax, and the perfect soundtrack to accompany a feature-length documentary about.... a smoking hat. finishing up the e.p is fudge fingas remix of low control, the only man qualified to make an already deep as fuck track even deeper. theres been some on-point criticisms about a lot recent deep stuff getting lost in noodly jazz territory, but we are in no danger of that nonsense with fudge fingas at the controls: accomplished a musician he may be, hes never been one to lose the way, and this mix proves his deft and subtle remix talents. dabj done done it again, and hopefully this is the first in a long line of productions from vernon.

new music from the swedish junkyard guys. mr tophat and art alfie delivering two modern house jackers with a little touch of that nordic touch that aways seem to balance things and bring some open space in the music.

for our 7th release, we give you the opportunity to grab 4 fantastic trax done by one of th ebest deep house producer right now : adryiano. hes a music lover and vinyl enthusiast from cologne germany rooted somewhere inbetween the 90s house sub-genres. pretty much into vintage gear when it comes to productions using 90s hardware like the mpc 2000xl. he has already released a brillant ep on soul notes recordings. this ep is clearly made for the new jerseyish deep house heads. old scool vibe with some serious banging kicks and an incredible groove. such an ep just demonstrate how on top of their game skylax / wax classic is right now - big tip!

following the first release on my lit label is from the quite brilliantly named, bebop & rocksteady. this might be a new name to some but the guys behind this project are lukes anger & ben mallott. after playing catalunya throughout the year i felt this tune needed to see a release, its just so f***ing good. its response on the dancefloor was devastating. anyone who has seen me dj recently would remember this one in my set, it gets a massive reaction once that drop comes in. i will still be playing this all year, a proper slice of good wonky techno. -addison groove

sons and daughters follow up their silver spell / optimo remix package with a second 12 inch. this time round they focus on orion, taken from their latest album mirror mirror, which was afforded universal critical acclaim on release last year and described by q as a creative rebirth. the 12 inch features 3 mixes kicking off with the emperor machine remix, the solo project of andy meecham from chicken lips. next up psychedelic occultist umberto giving it some strange brew with his mix, and wrapping up the package are glaswegian djs wrong island with their own particular take on the track.

forth in the hot waves compilation series kicks off the new year in style with this eight track vinyl double pack with some hot, hot licks! the hot creations offshoot has gone from strength to strength and this hot waves volume does little to disappoint.

since its inception in 2001, each entry in the pop ambient series has included its year of conception in its title, an irony in the fact that many consider the music being timeless in more than one way: a feel-good classic to some, a rigorous experiment to others, pop ambient always has located itself between the poles of habitual listening and sonic curiosity, with the space in-between beats being a way more interesting material than the beat itself. as in the years before, pop ambient 2013 collects an illustrious cast of producers uniting genre pioneers alongside old friends and some surprising new arrivals.
the 12 inch vinyl comes with a cd-copy of the full album.

after appearances on werkstoff and kammer musik neal white is back home on eintakt records with a quite playful while straight ahead thinking 12 inch. we start off deep underwater with the title track, a melancholic dubtechno drifter with a touch of pop called goldfish. enjoyable pianos, a rainy atmosphere, some classic chords and that tasty voice by klavinora make that track a proper name giver. after that wet a-side we come up afloat facing the livefish remix from rhauder (famous artist on the great label ornaments) on the other vinyl side, a reduced (even a bit) stoic floor operator, driving us through the confusions of the autumn sea. coming ashore and meeting queen ema is peaceable after all that. conciliating with the world and weather while getting surrounded by warm pads, curly effects and again the piano hints played by klavinora

uk don james johnston and german champ alex agore once again come together on their hot-to-trot no matter what imprint to lay down the law on their righteous tributes to vintage house music. johnston delivers some dreamy garage swing on >think about u everyday<, and takes things deeper on >do u understand?< by drawing you in with an alluring chord line that purrs at the heart of the track. agore is in equally feisty mood with some textbook vocal turns over his >in my soul< workout, and then switches up for a breezy, carefree wriggler in the form of >in your arms<

the second part of the >what about talk about< series by baaz starts with >owls night<. a deep house tool with a vigorous bassline, some classic 909 elements, weird vocals and a pumpin piano chord. >those things< the second track on the a, infects you with positive vibrations and the magic mood. the b side enters with a remix by the highly skilled producer michel bauman under his moniker soulphiction. he turned the track called k.m.s. into an emotional and strong kicking house tune. a cut for the special moments. the original is produced by iron curtis & baaz . 90 bpm, a dippy pipe organ, wooden beats and shaky percussions. the last track >whatabouttalkabout< is a lush experimental listening slice, prober for the dark and chilly winterdays.
