for all the wonderfully subtle shell-breaking he did on his full-length, mark e falls back on old, slow habits for his new single, >the day<. and welcomely, we might add. pitching things down to a basement lounge floor crawl, the midlands dj/producer wraps his always chugging kicks and snares in serpentine synth-bass, jazzy, tripleted hi-hats, and moaning, wordless soul vocals. its grasp is tantric—hinting coyly at ecstatic release, but never fully delivering. for the vinyl junkies that bought stone breaker and missed out on it the first time around (it was absent from that version), this release should be a no brainer. but >the day< isnt carrying all the weight here. a new track called >special fx< will have sample hounds—particularly those with a thing for classic electro-pop—salivating. and the oft imitated, never replicated prins thomas shows up on the flip for a (naturally) eleven- minute revamp of >the day<, livening up the bass and drum patterns, adding in strings, piano, guitar, organ, and ending up with something that totally could have emanated from a camaro at some point in the early seventies. (albeit, one owned by someone with interest in eleven-minute instrumentals.) it even has a fade out!

a1: the ghetto - tremendous edit which has been subject to some huge soundcloud loving. over 9000 plays and 500 favourites and counting! this track takes the basis of the original sample, adding some love with a heavy beat and groove, shuffling percussion. the soundcloud feedback cant be wrong! top track!
b1: for the love of soul - great original track, this suonho reloved version is even better! given a heavy beat, re-arranged and some brilliant percussion. this track really flows, proper groover!

for more than a year, third ear and benjamin have been selecting tracks for this ep and for an album to follow later in the year. the wait was largely due to the track no kicks, which initially used a chuck d acapella, titled no. when third ear couldn?t get clearance for the acapella, we suggested to benjamin that we try and think of another poet/rapper who could produce an original lyric inspired by chuck d?s flow. after some thought we suggested diamondancer, who was inspired to write the lyric she performs here. stay hungry stay foolish and acidic sun are delicious and dreamy, with a fat pulsing groove. hello ammmerika is more urgent, pushing the groove constantly.

lazydisco is a project of fred oliveira of rockets fame. after getting playlisted by names like alan braxe, duck sauce, a-trak, treasure fingers, aeroplane or in flagranti, fred decided it was time to explore something a little different from his regular house antics. so in 2010, lazydisco was born. describing the typical lazydisco track is a hard endeavour, although some might resort to just using the word sexy. things can get crafty behind the analog synths, the keyboards and the occasional live drums. lazydisco is influenced by many things and many people. often relaxed, often dirty - like life, one might say. “more tigers” is lazydisco?s debut ep, out on discotexas. remixers include in flagranti, c90s, xinobi, mirror people and mode. a highly anticipated release, which can already be heard in clubs (and pool parties) worldwid

as oscar wilde said music is the art which is most nigh to tears and memory which is why shinedoe has arranged this intacto release with all proceeds given to the red cross in an effort to try and ease some of the suffering in japan

steve lorenz is the guy you will have to look for in the next months. he works around many musical influences. the first track >overclock< evolves into fat basses, bursted kicks & percussions. >overclock< remix, operated by damon wild international acclaimed and legendary synewave boss label (joe beltram/ jeff mills / adam beyer…,), results in an energic deeper techno, mental beats & dubby influences, a mind blast! the track >viraga< keeps the finest line. industrial noises & subliminal female voices are twisting in speakers & surely ll keep your head! close your eyes & start the journey. closing the race, >viraga< remix was realized by narrow friend kane roth (smallroom / lessismore), south french producer who recently moved to berlin. her production means well being quality, there is no coincidence if she has been remixed by maetrik & monoloc some months ago. keeping essential elements of the original viraga , she dropped a muscle main floor edit! hands up!

its needless to add many words to the big success of >the elephants< original release. we however could not resist to have it remixed by some of the worlds hottest producers. and here they are: great names, great music!! go for it

in less than two years, sardinias alessio mereu has made quantum leaps in his dj/production career: after releasing an impressive string of eps for respected labels like contexterrior, tuning spork and cmyk, many top-name djs took notice, including dubfire and duke dumont (who picked some of mereus tracks for their respective cocoon and fabric mix cd compilations). in early 2010, he set up amam, which has quickly become one of the most popular techno/house imprints in italy, and as savvy dance music enthusiasts are catching on, throughout europe as a whole. earlier this year, his increasing international presence led to his debut berlin dj appearance at arena club to headline an amam label night…

this is retrometros first vinyl outing and its worth the wait. the four tracks of sweet soul music from sailor moon take you right back to that time when a bassline could bring a tear to your eye, and a one-note synth line could make your heart burst with joy. simple, raw and emotionally-charged, this ep is as much a love letter to r&s and great, almost forgotten european artists artists like frank de wulf, as it is to the chicago legends like phuture and steve poindexter. thats some deep grooves

again, a new discofil release. this time its a mini lp curated by venice-based dj and producer bottin whos showcasing some of his favourite proto-italo oddities, or if you will, an outing of some of his essential influences, dating back to bottins childhood years in italy. bottins earlier releases has been on quality labels such as eskimo, italians do it better, bear funk, nang and the obscure artifact bootlegs. adding discofil to his impressive catalogue, well the pleasure, the privilege is mine

nice price deal !!! following on from her acclaimed debut last year on jansen jardin, yuki suzuki and producer, max essa, return with another slab of far east magic entitled >we don?t have much time<. combining yukis sultry vocal with a very muscular, bass heavy groove, the track comes across like some pitched down (way down!) early 90s nyc garage classic. big, rolling drums push the track along while some glorious strings and piano make sure, as usual, jansen jardin have something for your mind, your body and your soul. on the flipside neville watson delivers one of his finest productions to date. pushing the tempo up and dubbing things out he provides a brilliant reworking which is already causing a fuss from tokyo to berlin. moody, emotional dance music for late nights and early mornings. one limited pressing - as before - first come, first served

in an age saturated with soundalikes and retro throwbacks, the truly unique and unconventional can be hard to come by. storming the 2011 scene with her self-titled debut album, berlin-based barbara panther seems to embody these latter characteristics - and then some. the singer takes risks, blending musical influences and crossing boundaries of musical style innovatively and effortlessly, and the result is a journey through vibrant soundscapes, frenetic arrangements interspersed with moments of beautiful melancholy, and the creative explosion of elements of her past, the present and the future.

true to form, souvenir are back with a snappy summertime release perfectly hinged & ready for sweeping the dancefloors. souvenir 036 various artists features lewis boardman & maher daniel blending their sounds, and converging on this ep for some magnificent effects. the a side starts out with daniel - he is a new, but solid name amongst the techno-gambit, having released on labels such as get physical & bedrock, as well as on souvenir. while his remix workings of >rumblefish< earned him a 2 1/2 month long-spot as number one on the techno charts. with >here and now< with dark, driving techno that sounds like its been made inside of a blazing house-fire. burning & singed, the the layers fall heavy upon one another - with a penetrating dancefloor deep-ness to the bass. next up, >icaros< on the inside a track…spins a dark & deep nighttime soundscape, deep into the depths of a jungle somewhere. a distant & hollow vocal of a tribesman hums hauntingly in the distance, with a severe & driving bassline to make you run like a scared little raver deep into the jungle. on the b side, boardman takes over, one of the uks newest talents - recently remixing for nina kraviz & yousef - with >tranquilizer,< on b2 is quite a minimal retreat…with some intergalactic space-fight sounds thrown into the mix, alongside the rolling bass, and chug-chugging. b2 enters the title track, >the broken is beautiful.< a nice, chugging bass-line meets a ethereal chopped up vocal, carefully flowing in & out of the bass-line….to meet up strong midway thru the breakdown

and here it is: the second vinyl ep of niko schwinds album >good morning midnight<. it features some of the unique tracks that niko has created together with some of berlins hottest production talents. on the a side are two tracks that feature the clicky tech-house boys that are channel x, where things kick off with >back from the bar<. it sounds as the title suggests: a little wobbly, a little drunk, a little crazy, but also pretty magic. quite clearly this is an homage to one of berlins not-to-be-forgotten clubs that is unfortunately history now. but things continue on here at least with >dont turn the lights on<, a more straightforward dancefloor track, with a trumpet as the main protagonist. this is one of those tracks that keeps leading up to a real arms-in-the-air-moment if it wasn’t so damn housy at the same time. on the flip the magical connection between niko and label daddy oliver koletzki can be heard on >master of ceremony<, a chopped-up house track with epic dimensions. when things get to the piano breakdown, they get very musical and colossal before dropping back into a great house track. the stark contrast between the piano melody and the groove on this really make it. last but not least then, the original album opener >good morning< that features the singing of fran. it works great as a great album opener, but also perfectly as a slower and more thoughtful addition to a great ep

cupp cave was once heralded as belgians best kept secret.Ê well, guess what?Ê the secrets out.Ê from the us to japan, his glitchy beats have stood out as some of the most innovative and rich amongst today s electronic hip hop producers.Ê but he doesnt stop at just making dope beats, he crafts universes, ocean deep and mountains high.Ê hes also proven his ability to wear as the weather and terrains demand while roaming through tese soni landscapes. as kingfisherg hes spen his time excavating golden sine waves from deep, lost caves. as sineshine, hes fished out a treasure trove of long-forgotten disco nuggets.Ê as cupp cave, he serves up busted-gaming-console-and-dusted-broken-beat concentrate, filtered through a tub of radioactive waste to devastating effects. he also forms one half of surfkill along with dynooo. this ep sees françois / cupp cave return to his one true love: making sloppy chicagoesque beats. just like all of vleks output, it comes in a hand-screenprinted, hand made, numbered cover.

claque musique ready to unleash their latest offering, from an artist who has become a key member of the claque family, rio padice. having in recent years devoted time to learning the production techniques of the 90s, blending the use of software, hardware and sampling, his productions, unlike so much of the current trend for looking back, have a mature and studied classic sound and feel to them. his work this year has seen firmly rooted in the front of the most discerning of record boxes.rio follows his remix of micro_on (claquemusique10) with his very own woodland ep. as we have accustomed to, rio delights us with another selection of tracks that see him exploring and bringing together the best in classic sounds with his very own fresh contemporary spin. the beautiful trip through woodland opens the ep. a dreamy bass-heavy acidic number. much different is ocrons land, with its static sounds and almost industrial feel. mutant camels with its bubbling bass, rasping hats and dromedary movement rounds out the originals. remixing the title track is padova born alex picone. renowed for his releases on bass culture, mus and cadenza and fresh from the success of his fahrenheit single, alex ramps things up for the dancefloor on woodland, replacing the original acid line with some fresh guitar licks. perfect!

it would be very tough to dispute the phrases >good things come to those who wait< or >less is more< when talking about the impeccable standard of sebo ks productions over the years. looking back at the very first mobilee too hot, and other hit releases such as diva and spirits, as well as a collection of remixes on some of the most respected labels – he is given name in any serious house music collectors bag and now we have another wax to add! mr. duke is nothing short of a summer anthem…opening with a delicately constructed rhythm pattern that eventually makes way for beautiful synths that build and lift your hands in the air with them. it warms you up just as the sun does, re-appearing from behind a cloud and covering your body in its rays. summer and sebo k – the perfect combination.

in 2010, when we started to revitalise the tresor label, we reached out to some of the greatest artists, not just in tresors history, but in techno. late 2010 we sat down in a paris cafe, just off the pompidou centre, with jeff mills, on a rainy, otherwise unremarkable and miserable day. but on this day we were given two very strong pieces of advice. >hire a fanastic a&r and sign sleeparchive<. so here we are, an artist that has been on the underground radar of the hacker, miss kittin and richie hawtin makes his debut on tresor records with >ronan point<. >the tracks developed from parts and loops i had created for my live set and always wanted to make tracks from. after a little break i took with the sleeparchive project the record for tresor was a great opportunity to make these tracks.< sleeparchives live sets have graced the dance floors and sound systems of berghain, arena club and bloc weekend, so it is fair to say that the 4 tracks that make up ?ronan point are not just tried and tested, but actually born on the dance floor. >> press: dj magazine techno single of the month.

vinyl edition to the fania release! stock will be very limited!the project is a marriage between old and new,a fresh take on classic sounds from the fania archives.late last year, fania records hand-delivered the original multi-tracks in a battered cardboard box to joe claussells nyc studio.each track was approached and assembled differently, each on its own terms. as joe says,some songs were edited,some were time-stretched many parts were re-recorded some new parts were recorded on top.the first disc features nine classic fania tunes from lou perez, celia cruz,eddie palmieri, ray barretto and more,all re-worked with the joe claussell touch!

check jatten ... big track .. there has been a lot of talk about a nordic house sound lately. here two guys thatit hit it right on the head! jonsson/alter aka jonsson (porn sword tobacco/gunnar jonsson)and alter (joel alter/jor-el) checking out some abandoned synthesizers alter found in the streets. a jam session started that has not yet ended. kontra musik again manages to pick out some gems.

set time-dials to 2011 and engage. here we have two slick, italian producers bottin and rodion, they both may have (professionally) lost their first name, but they sure both make up for that with their italian style and extra analog-burbleness. their original vocoder nugget and dub both feature on the vinyl. for remix action we teleport over to argentina where toomy disco (a pretty spacey name already) delivers us some remix action. slick grooves, flowing bass guitar and more shine than a sparkly new saturn 5.
unless an intergalactic born space-plague fuses our brains back to reality, expect more cosmic lunacy in 2012. get your submissions in now producers.

nice price deal !!! yes yes people, we are back! its been a while, but we are going to be hitting you with some seriously good tunes this year, so watch this space. anyway, on to the music: if you like your tunes big fat and heavy like an elephant on steroids, then get ready for an absolute pasting from new boy on the circuit, depone! depone is a producer that has really caught our ear at the z audio towers of late and when you hear these tunes, i m sure you will understand why. all 3 tunes are fierce, dirty, gritty, disgusting and overall very well produced. the great thing about depone is that he manages to create in your face music without pointlessly wobbling the lfo filter. theres some real depth to this young talent and i m sure you will be hearing some more great music from depone in the very near future.

>going on< from geeks & gaz is a deep 140bpm roller with rich synth swells and grainy disembodied vocals which lend a washed-out melancholy air, while a limber 2step house rhythm propels a truly transporting five minutes of eyes-closed burial-esque low end groove, making for a track that will hit equal targets on the dancefloor and in the headphones. daily delivers >untitled<, an old-school uk garage-inspired track which comes to life with a slow rising synth line underpinned by a sparse beat, before breaking brightly open into a scene of high pitched buzzing keys and some seriously complex percussive intricacies, rapid on the conga skins and hard down on the blunted kick drum. for further triple-win value, hype west london producer jack dixon offers a jaw-dropping refix of >going on<, massaging the original into a sensuously twisted uk funky / garage hybrid shape, introducing dramatic synth lines, hypnotic vocal stabs, and a hightened detail in the beat programming which somehow increases the tunes club-tooled precision while simultaneously enhancing its wistful and reflective mood.

his debut four track ep highlights his individual approach to song writing with the gorgeous, deep and moody >i am machinery<, a fitting title for a track where the human voice integrates seamlessly into the analogue electronics of the machines. >pointers’ changes the mood and aims at the dancefloor, with strings and synths fully indebted to detroit techno, but with a constant human touch from his jazzy scat cutting in and out of the heavy groove. >some days< has the biggest sound on the ep with multiple vocal tracks layering over the crisp drums and pulsating synths. hes combined his keen ear for melody and a firm grasp of the dancefloor for this track, making it many djs favourite on the ep due to a club friendly structure, yet striking originality. >set myself on fire< closes the ep at a mellow tempo, and can easily hypnotise the listener with its repetitive vocals, haunting whistles and sleazy beats. this is only for the beginning for debukas, these four tracks are just an introduction to one of the finest talents from the uk electronic underground

maurizio vitello returns to metroline with some seriously deep bass-driven techno. a devastating ep. the lead track is a driving, stripped down techno groove. full-bodied toms and a seriously fat bass keep the track rolling while filtered vocals and understated synths add the dynamics. heavy! looking good keeps that groove going with a bassline so heavy you will have to pick yourself up off the floor. a bubbling percussion break evolves throughout the track, building in complexity, but kept in check by some nice metronomic hats at the high end. on movers maurizio lets the drums do the talking. everything locks tightly around the solid kicks. the multi-layered break adds a sweet cubano vibe that you simply wont be able to shake off. let the bass drrrrooopppp! pleased? yes we are. this playful track is going set the summer floors on fire. vocal samples weave in and out of the mix, and sharp-as-a-needle 80s-tinged synths stab through the deep, heavy rhythm track to awesome effect.

in january 2011 mark was invited by erik wiegand (aka errorsmith) to make some presets for his new software synthesizer which he was building for native instruments. after developing about 40 sounds*, mark decided to rework his ul8 project by extending the pattern generating systems used in its construction, which he then connected to the sounds produced in erik s synthesizer. the result is this double 12 single, featuring 9 tracks and a remix from mark s friend and colleague mat steel.

m.a.n.d.y. and matthew dear lit up new york city in 2010, with their buddies club night, and - as m.a.n.d.e.a.r. - with their own urban dancefloor myth, the unreleased track >buddies<. the cut fused deep hypnotism with dancefloor abandon, swirling sheen hints of disco and an infectious sing-along hook. by keeping it close to their chests for months on end, m.a.n.d.e.a.r. drove anticipation into fever pitch, and >buddies< finally burst out of the gate in october as the opener of thomas schumachers 8 years get physical music compilation. now, >buddies< is fully realized with reworks from some of the best in the business - m.a.n.d.y., radio slave, smash tv and siopis. philipp jung and patrick bodmer make >buddies< over into a sleek late night beast with their m.a.n.d.y. remix

here comes the new echocord colour. after some big releases with luke hess, mike dehnert and sebastien san here comes the new one which is a split ep of the copenhagen heroes mikkel metal & resoe. after his latest 12 inch on echocord, mikkel metal again shows us his more techno-side of his universe, with this killer peaktime bomb, and still with his own unique deep sound. after his resent album on echocord, resoe here presents a more dancefloor-orientated track, for the fans of dettmann/klock, shed, sandwell district and pattern repeat.

on this release leng state their proper intent. whilst still sharing some middle ground with claremont 56, leng will delve deeper into electronic club territory, leaving the more organic wares for c56.
