theres something brewing down at dumb-unit and this time its in the venomous form of a cobra sun. legend has it that the cobra sun is a sun so fierce that a man can only face it at the crack of dawn. only at this point can one survive its monstrous wrath. whatever the truth may be, what is certain is that a new legend arises with pheroxs moving interpretation. a massive journey full of dynamism and extremes the cobra sun is yet another notch to be carved into dumb-units sonic bed post.

blind minded lives in london and is famous for his live appearances and has his third release with trapez ltd with >mr propre<. his first two release on trapez ltd was supported heavily and where charted by the italoboyz so weare looking forward to his follow up. >mr. propre< is the return of what used to be of the detroit sound blended with modern spontaneous changes in mood and crossovers which will put a smile on your face. >mr. propre< is the most technoid of all three tracks, whereas >jazz 2 me< is a bassline monster, with vocalquotes about jazz music stating it as >a state of life<, >something that you live!<. altogether a sexy cool groover! >the melting freak< is the most deep of all three tracks. here you can hear blind minded playing his analogue instruments (also a real 808 drum machine) being funky and cool rather than going for cheap thrills.

2x12inch with massive tracks by marco effe, alessandro sensini, ilario alicante, leon & pirupa! cécille dedicate a whole release to one country. after getting so much support from the italy fans and producers the guys from cécille decided to give something special back. the end is a double vinyl with 7 tracks from only italian producers who reflecting their kind of music, sound and crazyness. hope you enjoy…

club music for us was never limited to way of entertainment and leisure. to create something new and to be part of the modern world is our true purpose. in the initial stages of nervmusic formation, we were great admirers of a catenaccio record label especially for these qualities. now we present our third release by benjamin fehr the head creator of catenaccio. if you hungry for new sound and thinking outside of common grids then this music is for you. imagination is more important than knowledge. knowledge is limited ...

we welcome this fantastic producer on trapez with this piece of music which is quite different from most of what we get today. the title track >ghosts< feels like as if klaus nomi and kraftwerk were performing together... something we would have loved to have seen but which never happened. this track is not for the people who love it safe but for the adventurous and the wicked. voices like sirens striking with high pitched tongues being counteracted by basslines with a surface that can only be described as rough as chunks of splintered steel. a brilliant stop and go feeling shows that christian martin is the master on the steering wheel when it comes to controlling the movement.

its still like that: even though digital is everywhere there is still something very special about having your own tracks on a vinyl release. so this is it again: the very best of the last releases on koletzki_s sublabel stil vor talent digital on a double-sided vinyl edition. starting off with two tracks by bruch & junior that couldnt be more different: while >fiesta de la residencia< sounds like somebody threw some spanish vocals and trumpets into a pool of tech-house beats and basslines at a maniac afterhour on the white island (ergo: great),>sunset< is the deeply euphoric sound for the morning after. the synthesizers so crisp and all around you, the beat and bassline so warm and seductive: this is purely magical music that will make you forget when the sun went down or up the last time while still making you want to shake your legs to the strong bassline and chunky loop. hit! on the flip then comes a re-work of a massive hit on stil vor talent: a 2010 version of nicones >una rosa< complete with the original spanish vocals, but a much more grooving loop that turns into an absolute percussion fest. claps turn into effects and we all raise our hands to those reverbed original vocals. last up australian murat kilic with the wonderfully oldskool house anthem >summer traffic<: great melodic pads, a superbly harmonic bassline and when the breakdown kicks in, an ever-indulging xylophon melody. this whole record has got summer written all over it and helps us all get through this icy winter.

supported by sian, loco dice, hot chip/ felix, john digweed, dubfire, todd bodine, derek miller, deepchild, goldfish + der dulz, mihalis safras, orde meikle, heiko laux, ktantin gabbro, toni d! yes, dominik eulberg is one of the few techno artists from germany who composes music out of a whole range of classical elements such as melodies, analogue synth sounds and a worthy treasure of self made elements. in dominik s world there is still place for romance and dreams opposed to the hard realism of the techno world and the music made on demand. so we were happy when we found in rodriquez jr a remixer who was able to connect dominik s world with his own world, keeping the gentle touch of the original but adding a quirky and lively element to it. if there is something like a perfect remix, this might be it!

music, in performance, is a type of sculpture. the air in the performance is sculpted into something. - frank zappa. first before we start talking about our first release in our new serie called sculptures we would like to say to you what is it all about. sculptures is a special 5 part serie symbolicaly representing 5 years of existence of jesus loved you label that is coming up this year. it will be consisted of 5 different releases with a new fresh approach to music that will our label represent, with a warmer twist shaking grooves. basically how we would say, tracks that we heard and love to have them on vinyl.

after releases on established labels like smallville, liebe detail, cargo edition, freude am tanzen and others, daniel stefanik, sven tasnadi und stefan schultz (juno6) decided to provide their own basis in their hometown leipzig. oh!yeah! is something between couch and dancefloor, if you like even a bit gaga. it shall reflect the freaky and humorous side of the three guys. we save our breath and cheesy speeches – let the music play. number 004 is written and produced by stefan schultz alias juno6. have fun with oh!yeah!004

vizual - the brain and soul child of joshua iz - its even part of the name. after working with many of the most respected labels in underground dance music, including prescription, classic, om, guidance, diy, joshua &#64257,,nally felt it time to create his own imprint, hence vizual. drawing from a myriad of in&#64258,,uences, from heavy jamaican dub to bleepy detroit techno, vizual seeks to develop new musical forms that bridge the gap between pure organic music and abstract electronic sound paintings, yet creating something danceable in the process.

toolbox is gideons third album, in the line of many to come. although the minimal hype has surpassed this is minimalism from a techno point of view. no bullshit sounds, just straight up minimalistic techno grooves. inspired by guys like richie hawtin and robert hood, gideon has twisted this knowledge into something of his own. very different from his last album on kanzleramt called >need no permission<, this album focuses on tool tracks. and that is off course the title explanation. toolbox is an 8 track album in the line of gideon his first minimalplus release trias politica. 8 pure danceable tool tracks that a fit for any techno minded dance floor. toolbox will be released on 2 separate 12 inch records minimalplus 010 and minimalplus 011 each containing 4 songs.

big with: llorca, trickski, deetron, djuma soundsystem, ante perry, laurent garnier, .. for its 3rd release lany recordings turned towards we play house recording artist san soda to provide the goods. this is no coincidence as we play house recordings is run by red d, maxim lanys lany partner in crime. this means that lany 03 take things a bit deeper than the previous lany releases, without losing the direction lany recordings is aiming for. on this untitled e.p. san soda teams up with friend just nathan for two tracks. just nathan is another experienced belgian dj who has something to offer to the world, adding further proof to the fact that belgium has more skills than just making waffles and harassing children

on his new album, pantha du prince, who lives in berlin and paris, claims: music slumbers in all matter, any sound, even silence, is already music. the mission, then, must be to render audible what is unheard and unheard of: black noise, a frequency that is inaudible to man. black noise often presages natural disasters, earthquakes or floods, only some animals perceive this calm before the storm. black noise is something archaic and earthy. the music on black noise balances precariously on the slippery threshold between art and nature, between techno and folklore, which lends it a certain spectral and intangible aspect. black noise also features a couple of special guests - noah lennox of animal collective sings on >stick to my side< and tyler pope of !!! and lcd soundsystem plays bass on >the splendour<.

classic chaka khan stuff!!

this e.p. is a composition by two artists who release their feelings thru their music. g.marcell presents >breathe<. on this side of the e.p. breathe is a musical adventure were g.marcell expresses a time period of release from the everyday drama. sometime in our everyday life we need just a little relief from the everyday pressure of the issues we encounter. this is the reason for the inhale mix and the exhale mix. the inhale mix is the more laid back groove where as the exhale mix is the more energetic groove strictly for dancing. on the other side of the e.p. >necessary sanctuary< is amirs experience of the dance floor when he hit the club scene. the original mix is full of energy and a for sure crowd pleaser. the 3am mix is more of the mellow late nite groove. over all, the e.p. is something for everyone to relate to in one way or another.

the innervate label is on a roll and the last release featuring: pedro delgardo, fer br and dj mika did amazingly well! this funky piece of techno was a great release for the label.
this new outing is something completely new. a dark offshoot of the label was born for all the lovers of serious dancefloor techno. extremely loud and dirty vibez from the likes of patrick dsp, mika, ryuji takeuchi and virgil enzinger!
for the fans who are into labels like audio assault arms, planet rhythm and submissions!

round no. 2 for the alex baus credo repaints, this time featuring the long term techno-heavyweight chris liebing and the uprising jonas kopp from argentina. chris keeps close to the original of >full method jacket<, a track he has been playing frequently, adding his own flavour in a very impressive way. jonas turns >lofi micro< into a stripped down and arrangement-wise more relaxed version, but his precise drumming and sound-design makes this remix becoming something completely new. full points again and already massive dj-support from a like abba to z like zz top :-)

it was only a matter of time. two genre-defining artists together ... pop music and dance musics most famous arbiters of taste, collaborating at last. dj hells >u can dance< is an interpretation of an unreleased bryan ferry song, but its one that reflects a perfect melding of two distinct personalities, a record that sounds as if the voice and music were made for each other.
hell, of course, has been riding high on the success of >teufelswerk<, his masterpiece of a double album, a journey replete with fruitful experiments and club bombs. one that has yielded both massive hits and not a tiny bit of controversy along the way. ferry, meanwhile, has been as busy as ever—recording a new album, performing in places as far afield as siberia, opening up the cannes film festival ... basically just being bryan ferry.
and now here they are together ... it all started in 2006 when hell dropped in to meet ferry at his west london studio. at first they discussed hell remixing an old roxy music track, and then it turned into something else - something new (u can dance).
they had similar impressions of one another — hell: >i was impressed by his aura and his look.<, ferry: >he impressed us with his sophistication and charm.< fast forward a few years later, and hell is hard at work on teufelswerk and putting the finishing touches on the aforementioned song titled >u can dance<, a serpentine moroder-esque disco burner. with the help of old friend peter kruder, of kruder and dorfmeister fame, hell fashioned the song into a smoldering nine-minute highlight of the double disc set, in which ferry turns in a typically assured vocal performance.
ferry may seem like an unexpected fan of dance, but hes been going to clubs since he was a teenager, and in his lengthy career hes worked with legends such as nile rodgers of chic and david williams from michael jacksons band. >its always a pleasure to work with people from that genre, who follow a singular groove.<
the single follows in the wake of hells >the dj feat. p. diddy< which has won over floors and critics alike with its nearly 30-minute radio slave remix and fine work from the likes of deetron, jay haze and others. on >u can dance< hell and ferry have similarly pulled out all the stops for the remixes, gathering up work from the grammy-nominated producer carl craig, dfa mainstay tim goldsworthy and pop electro superstars simian mobile disco.

jazzy tourism is the first work that establish apparel music in the electronic music market. apparel seeks to combine differents hemispheres, trying to impress on vinyl every mood and emotion. every song is built for narrow audience, mental, impatient, just like jazz, get something of magical on the dance floor.

casxio (ca see oh) are a refreshing devine fusion of disco, funk and rock n roll. reminiscent of a sound that first infiltrated ourairwaves over a quarter of a century ago, casxio is what happens when prince, the talking heads, and sly stone all get their heartsbroken by the same girl.

sometimes a label like syndikaat gets many demos from upcoming artists and sometimes suddenly something stands out so much it just must be signed! barnum & bailey are the new guys and they send us a slammer. very cool uplifting minimal style that just works so easily always. synth driven beats with a pumping bassline. its just like that, listen and let the music take you away.

long awaited follow up to the huge debut release on carbon audio sees rene reiter, p.i.n.o lopez & maxx, riino, maxx deliver four superb techno cuts that go from epic acid to funky ghetto to tribal to banging! something for everyone here & sure to rock!

right on the heels of our previous bass/electro smasher, we hit you with the most anticipated house/disco record of recent times. helsinki 78-82 is a project by top billin team members flipper & koobra, whove always been active and always been down to bring something new to the label. while flipper is part of the top billin dj team and has always been the most high-flying of us, so no wonder the the new 12inch is some musical bliss thatll leave you feeling that good good. this is what we call big city house music, when youre cruising the streets at night with the top down - no words needed. in a manner michael mann would be proud of. so lifelike is a sort of remake of lifelikes great so electric (under permission), although this time it comes with vocals from our great helsinki new wave partners villa nah. if you are in need of a new end-nighter, this is it. cruising is a tune full of that pumping big city feel with driving drums and great synth work that will get them ladies on the floor and will fit into those funky house / modern disco sets. we even have a video for it, but its a different kind of cruising than you think (no al pacino)…

billingen fuses together deeper peaktime vibes & a warm sensual hook to create something to appeal to a wide range of djs that s certain to get a rousing effect on the dancefloor with the uplifting breakdowns ticking every box and certain to get hands in the air, and people chanting for more! next monster hit by henrik b

travelling the world with the cream of the toolroom roster, toolroom knights resident dj pete griffiths now has his sights set firmly on the studio. fresh from the success of his remix of matt samuels >enjoy the silence<, toolrooms rising star pete griffiths delivers a superb debut single >speak the secret< for the label, featuring the vocal talents of the delicate yet formidable neve.
a strong contender for one of this years true anthems, >speak the secret< has a magnetic quality with a progressive melody that captivates inside the first minute. the perfectly formed bassline, sweeping intro and lamenting main riff all interconnect to create something truly transcendental, leaving neves mesmerising vocals locked in your mind for hours.
the release package also includes remixes from some of the worlds finest dj/producers including, tocadisco, thomas gold & esquire, each delivering their own take on the original to cater to all floors.
early support on the release comes from a host of a list names including axwell, mark knight, david guetta, steve angello, pete tong & more ...

bootleg is a mixture of laptop based rythmic cut ups, shouty punk collages and a return to the sweeter more melodic stuff. dont miss it!

every year hundreds of thousands of dance records are being made and released. with the output from dance producers at an all-time high and with so many records crossing over it takes something a bit special to break-through from underground groover to worldwide mover. 2010 is the year of >sidney samson – riverside (lets go!)< on data records.
the facts above dont lie, this isnt just a dance record, its a dancefloor phenomenon and theres good reason for the comparisons with >day & night< by kid cudi vs. crookers and fedde le grands infamous >put your hands up for detroit<. its got exactly the same appeal and has had exactly the same effect, i.e. unstoppable support and praise from the coolest underground djs all the way up to the global superstar djs and via every european summer holiday resort. sidney samson is a name you simply cannot ignore right now.

supported by adam beyer, john digweed, dominik eulberg, ewan pearson, perc, danny tenaglia, dave tarrida. roland m. dill is a passionate dj, trained musician as well as bit of a scientist. this release tells a story of psycho acoustics. so expect >low go< to be something special for your ears and for your soul. roland likes chicagomusic and this track has the chicagoesque feeling in it from the beginning. those who remember green velvet will get a hang also on this powerhouse-techno production! this track will be easily fitted in to every berghain dj set and rock the shit out of everyone on the dance floor. dont expect dubbed out lushness, this is serious dance or die action .
the remixes come from prominent producers around europe, so starting chronological from a2 to b2: sian has appeared on a lot on raves and parties with his surf board. he is an international traveller who loves to be reminded of the times when surfing farmers left their houses with door frames and no doors. his remix works in a way a countdown functions. building up tension at an incredible speed, this track is set out to explode... but sian would not be sian if he had not developed a club friendly torture . sian rides the wave of superfatt basslines and adds a sequence that sounds as if someone had replaced his teeth with thin pieces of metal, creating a humming voice comparable to one of a jaws harp. sian keeps the tension going with very few elements and shows he is a true masterof techno.
secret cinema has been accompanying us since his first releases mid of the 90ies and we truly believe quality prevails, not to mention his mayor chart hit just 3 months ago with “shake ur tech-ass”. well secret cinema is unbelievably massive in his production. we dont see how anyone can fatten up the sound more than he can. but it is not only about tuning and pimping and pimping and tuning... his remix is a masters piece of perfectionbecause it creates something rare... deep emotional hydraulic strength. this is like diving head on into a pool of silicone and getting sucked into it. this track has an hypnotic feel to it that is comparable to radiohead.
darko esser is an icon in the techno scene of the netherlands. his remix takes the track in to a direction you would not expect it could go to. starting rather minimal darkos remix soon takes a turn and brings in jack elements and cool nostalgic melodies that will warm the heart of every detroit techno lover. was it derrick may who played chords like this... these strings are looked up in the back of our heads like childhood memories of having your first popcycle exploding in your mouth. this is soulful music with just enough analogue imperfection and warmth to it.

multi-platinum producer, prolific hit-maker, and sonic innovator timbaland will release his third solo album, entitled timbaland presents shock value ii, on vinyl lp, on december 8th, 2009, on mosley music group/blackground records/interscope records. the album is the follow-up to the super-producers multi-platinum 2007 album timbaland presents shock value, which spawned three no. 1 pop singles, the grammy-nominated >give it to me< (featuring nelly furtado and justin timberlake), >the way i are<, (featuring keri hilson and d.o.e.), and a remix of onerepublics multi-platinum blockbuster >apologize< (one of the best-selling singles of the decade).
on shock value ii, timbaland re-maps the pop/r&b landscape by batting away genre boundaries once again. his prodigious influence and ability to stay ahead of the curve have meant that a wide range of todays most popular artists are eager to participate in the shock value series. this second iteration features guest appearances from justin timberlake, katy perry, miley cyrus, the fray, chris daughtry, nickelbacks chad kroeger, brandy, drake, and keri hilson. in addition, timbaland asserts the wide-screen sonic adventurousness that has led the virginia beach native to dominate the pop charts for more than a decade.

dollar mambo is a fantasizing. his name is taken from the title of paul leducs film. a movie realized in panama where you find no dialogues but only music and dance to narrate the story. like in the seven dollar album, all tracks have an authentic south colour and are built, not like a film but in a way where everyone can easily imagine a sketch. all tunes are about dancing, intensity, surprising and finally a great tribute to musicians. youll find a lot of sampled instruments from massive percussion, trombone, trumpet, voice (soleil) to guitar, gitarone (gringo) and marimba (wonderful)... like a dream this album is born for those who are searching for something different, illuminating and deeply happy

cheeky white from italy using the classic dr baker & 2 guys on acid piano line with candi statons classic you go the love accapella b/w not sure about logic which takes the classic paperclip people throw loop and works it into something new. perfect party fodder

- robin (david gilmour girls)
>yeah, as i said, i think its your best edit 12 so far. the choice of tracks is great, >pianos on the beach< is the kind jam youd like to hear on a dancefloor late at night, i guess this could have been played by francis grosso or mancuso. same for >look at you<, fantastic track, very emotionnal, whis has something of an anthem. keep on sending me such a thing. (btw, i m a fan of canyons label, great stuffs)<
-cosmo vitelli
>this is the kind of release that makes me excited to dj again...and again. theres something here for the beginning, middle, and end of a great night.<
-alex frankel (holy ghost!)
>loving that piano jam mister renault - perfect to drop just when you have em where you want em towards the end!<
-jim stanton (horse meat disco)
>nice one jacques, sounding good man!<
-mark e
>mr. renault is on a roll!!!!! seeing as everyone and their mother is doing edits these days, it comes as no surprise than the man takes it to the proverbial next level with this ep.<
-my cousin roy (wurst music)
>love these - more great edits from jacques. have been playing them out with great results!<
-prince language

spirit catcher is becoming more and more a permanent member of the systematic family. after their debut e.p. last year and their contribution to the >5ysyst< project last summer, these three tracks are their latest productions on my systematic imprint. something which always impresses me a lot is how jean and tom continue todevelop their distinctive spirit catcher sound, no matter if they release on 20:20 vision, nrk, moodmusic or elsewhere. its always an awesome mixture of fluffy driving house beats, a portion of deepest darkness and freshhypnotic sounds figures! i love the way how they do install the dark organ melody at >sedona<. the organ soundspretty outta space and lets me float away once i have closed my eyes. also, the mystic mood at >future fools<generates me a goose skin, every time i hear it. (marc romboy)

nice price deal !!! tracks by clinton lee aka dj clee. something to work with!

back in the day, when i discovered the music from reggie dokes and the psychostasia label i felt something similar as when i listened for the first time the music from lil louis at the end of the 80s. i mean... is this music really house? it must be because all the good househeads play and respect his stuff... perhaps just for that different and unique way of make house...

1991 classic, 180 g vinyl on 2x12 vinyl set!!

the 2nd ep from colognes trio lemon popsicle on yellowtail .for sure we have something special here, two very forward moving tracks from this up & coming act. brilliantly completed by berlin based artist jaxson.

stl is the production alias of stephan laubner who has been releasing material under a variety of pseudonyms on labels likeperlon, smallville, styrax and his own something records imprint over the past decade. stephans productions are like fine wine, they develop, mature and get better with age. his past releases have gained support and charts from detroit luminaries like derrick may & theo parrish to the berghain collective, ben klock, marcel dettmann & steffi. his recent licensing of silent state on cassys new simply devotion mix on cocoon, ames fabric mix, steve bugs the lab and earning the number 1 spot ingroove magazines chart all speak volumes about the level of love and passion he puts into his productions. with stephans check mate he pays homage to a sound we simply adore, a musical conceit only a select few understand, hand crafting his sounds with a variety of analog signal processors, vintage synthesizers and a loving touch reminiscent of the early deepchord years. this is one to treasure, made for repeat listening

beautiful vocal house with a seducing melody and soulful instrumentation. the remixes on this 2x12inch dont hurt either with a little something for everyone, ranging from the broken beat savvy speakeasy rmx to the deep intoxicating crazy penis (paper) rework, and the solid playful meanderings of new yorks onda.

oldschool lovers, get ready for something very special! big with dj sneak, audiofly, federicomolinari, d julz, ekkohaus, alex picone, lauhaus, dj wild, robert dietz, kabale & liebe, agnés, gel abril, mark farina, hector moralez, iz, gavin herlihy, m.in,..

here we go with part 2 of quintessentials 10, >deep, raw and real<. again 4 exclusive cuts for all you house freaks out there! jagged and the mysterious zohar are following there recent full eps on quintessentials with new tracks that show that all these guys are hot. big welcome to the ever raw stl (something, smalville, perlon) - his unique style fits in here nicely. great track mate! and finishing off with vakula, well know from his quintessentials 03 release. yes, we keep it deep, raw and real!

for the second cassius records and to carry on with the youth speed, trouble, cigarettes adventure we give you four remixes done by talented producers across europe from milano italy… reset! we met the three kids from reset! in magazinni generale while playing, their set was powerfull but also full of respect and influences from hip hop, soul and dance music in general, we finished our sets back to back and since this day love them their trouble mix could have been done by the jbs if they were still twenty something and into house music… it rocks and never stopsno use to present the music from radio slave, the big difference with a majority of other producers is that we both can recognise his tracks in a few bars only, also in the way it streches to crazy length and takes you in a trance that could have come directly from lagos in 1973 matt embrace the same philosophy we all cherish at cassius records the no boundarys way hes more than minimal, more than electro more than techno he stripped down ystc to the max and his remix played at the good time on a good system is a true chicagoan infused gem then after chaos

a classically-trained jazz virtuoso and national rock n roll hero in argentina, gutis double 12inch pack for desolat will leave you in no doubt of his ability to twist a snaking groove into something echoingly hypnotic. the tracks contained here are already a favourite in the record boxes of artists like loco dice, carl cox and marco carola, while gutis life story could itself be the subject of a story by jorge luis borges: >i leave to several futures (not to all) my garden of forking paths<. just two years after his first live sets in europe, desolat is proud to present gutis las cosas que no se tocan. the beats follow guti across continents: mr good vibes was composed in a hotel room in stuttgart after an argument with a friend, while the serious dancefloor vibes of sasa, the hustler and ieuuu were channelled in martinez studio. ieuuu and the hustler feature slices of glamorous, haunting vocals by jayson walker, a british singer that guti discovered on myspace. and sasa boasts gutis own vocal touches. meanwhile, the track aguanile is inspired by one of his favourite melodies as a child, one that he’s collected many versions of. the last track on the release, el campeon, reaches a bittersweet ending in the wide open space between percussive trills and a cut-out refrain, inspired by gutis favourite latin storylines of broken hearts and pain.

after three smashing va samplers, dutch based aftertaste recordings launches its first full ep in a series of limited gold vinyl releases. steven fallows aka >casual violence<, also appearing on latest aftertaste 12inch (ctrl del alt ep) has the honor to kick off. with >why so few ep< a dark and sinister story is told, consisting of five individual chapters. for those who thought proper pounding and industrial techno wasnt made anymore, do not fear, britain delivers something massive again..

mike minds only previous release, >acid machine<, has been tigas most played record since it was made. a full-time turbo employee, he has spent the past few years getting his brain around making techno, and continues to impress us with his output. his debut ep, >resonate<, is something of a departure for our label, and one we are very proud of.
its amazing to have this kind of music coming directly out of turbo hq, it nails a sound that we have always tried to cultivate. minimal without being boring, trippy without being predictable, unafraid of melody, and with just enough analog imperfection and warmth to it.
both of the remixers we chose represent different sounds in techno that have influenced mikes sound.
1: sophisticated italian groove*
giorgio gigli is an italian minimal-trance maestro, an incredibly modern renaissance man who is also a trained sommelier.** he is rising in the ranks and catching up in profile to his occasional production partner, donato dozzy. hopefully we will have more of his tracks on turbo soon.
2: m¦n¦m¦l
hobo is a fellow canadian best known for his excellent work on m¦nus. rumor has it, he borrowed richies quad-macro template file to finish the final version of this remix... whatever he did, his second effort came up huge, this mix is excellent.
enjoy!

after surprising belgium and the rest of the world with their >zoopah dupah< and >heads up< eps, sound of stereo is back with a new, fresh sound best described as >something you should hear for yourself<.
in the past few months sound of stereo has been all over the place. not only have they played every large festival and venue in belgium & holland, their tracks have also been picked up by big names such as bloody beetroots, steve aoki, mstrkrft, armand van helden, crookers, congorock, jokers of the scene and many, many more.
with the new >zipper ep< comes a more mature sound that proves that sound of stereo is more than just wobbly beats and funny lyrics. the ep contains 3 brand new tracks that will be presented at i love techno on the 24th of october. the official release is scheduled exactly one month later: on the 24th of november. dont hesitate and get them while they are hot!

support from the worlds finest djs and artists such as pier bucci, argenis brito, butane, maetrik, gregory shiff, ambivalent, and id, barem, and noah pred.
this four-track vinyl is an absolute must have for those who love to play a chugging, driving style of minimal and techno. produced by barcelonas pablo bolivar, >looking for a shape<, pushes the depth and groove that he is known for, but in a more aggressive yet subtle way. the original doesnt allow one to breath with constant changes in percussion and amazing flow. his >phase two< track will annihilate the speakers in clubs with deep bass and is a sharp, tightly wound percussive masterpiece.
the remixes offered are by monkey brothers, who take a very different turn with the track and offer a soft vocal and is perfect for the dance-floor as it delivers a strong pop for those later in the night moments. finally, the last track on the record is hidden recordings owner deepak sharma + dieter krauses interpretation of the original. they have created a more slowed down, druggy, groovier version of the original. its not quite as smooth as the original and thats a good thing as the extra glitch is great for those who need more punch in their sets. there is something in this release for all kinds of djs.
