this exquisite disco roughie, paying homage to that sleazy, backroom-disco sound of the boys town gang and skatt bros., is the latest addition to the history clock canon. and ill wager that this is going to be the post-summer smash of the undergrounds counter-cultural disco scene. >cruiser< is a simple, bass loop that grinds and growls like an early weatherall-style groove, beneath some of the most x-rated sociolinguistics that would make even a sailor blush! on the b-side, relaxer is a punchy, proto-house instrumental that sounds like something somewhere between the very early releases on trax and one of those obscure 12? killer dub versions from a mid-80s, uk pop tune

berlin-based markus schatz is no stranger to cargo edition. in 2009 he released his first ep >drippin< on this leipzig-based label. this track has since found its way into the sets of numerous well-known djs. markus schatz recently passed his certification exam qualifying him as a professional sound technician, an excellent reason to celebrate with a new release. his latest album for the leipzig-based cargo edition label contains 5 tracks, all of which perfectly reflect the unique charm of markus schatz. the tracks are deep, yet excellent for deejaying and go far beyond the ordinary dj tools. schatz collaborated with markus homm on two of the ep tracks - >i need< and the digitally available >feels like home<. the two artists met as labelmates on the berlin-based label highgrade, on which both have been releasing albums for quite some time.

monsieur guillaume berroyer — the infamous ark — recently underwent a sort of sea change in both his artistic and personal life. anyone following his career with even a passing interest knows of his long resume (collabs with pepe bradock and cabanne, dolibox, mika weill, releases on brif, karat, circus company, perlon…) and has heard tales of the studio fire and the creative energy shift and all of the stories associated with his frenzied live performances and dj gigs. great stories are fun and build mystique, but as most heads know the music more than measures up to the legend. his recent >arkpocalypse now< full-length showed a matured craftsman that is not so much waxing introspective as he is distilling his signature sound into something manageable enough to truly adapt to all of his musical tastes.

>amigo< is the sound of friendly nature – deeply rooted in the music of latin america, and at the same incorporating latest recording technologies, this is the music for both extensive club use and advanced home listening. few minutes into its gentle, shimmering aura – and it becomes clear that this is the final and most perfect record of any latino-techno artist. submerged in warm, mid-tempo percussion arrangements, piers tracks leave a lot of room to breathe and let go of ones imagination – forming a soundtrack to virtually any activity an open mind can undertake.

footandmouths third release is a fantastic four track ep of some stupendous edits. if youve spent any time in ibiza this summer, youre sure to have heard d-sounds great take on hall & oates. a massive dc10 anthem, this is one of the most hyped tracks of the summer. subtle in execution, massive on impact, simply stunning! a2 is a great little disco edit, cheeky and fantastically infectious. the flip features another hall & oates revision by jersey shore guido, whilst, me & my fellas deliver another hot disco edit. great four tracker with something for all the family

dixie yure is the incarnation of contemporary oldschool house music from seville. after some digital only releases it is about time for some haptic experience. with the 10“ record „show me satisfaction“ on berlin-based label fenou his sound is rotating on turntables for the first time. monotonous minimalism ain’t dixie yures world. the sound tends more towards 2step and builds a homogeneous and pleasant mixture with classical house elements and vocal parts. you just cant deny yourself dancing the >chicken dance< and stepping like hell! thanks to the funky improvisations extending over the whole track you wont get bored even after listening to >show me< for the hundredth time. the a-side is just fun - in the club as well as on your couch. you wont miss the low-pitched vocals on the b-side either as they are typical for the spanish producer. >satisfaction< is a little more reduced than >show me< but is enhanced with jazz elements such as pianos and saxophones. it shows that wind instruments in electronic music dont have to be annoying tribal elements. in this example acoustic instruments do not just get mixed up with house music but merge to one groove – absolutely rocking tune!

he created a minimal groover with hypnotic and nice nervouse elements called -the bling-. dennis reichs remix moves in the field of minimal-dub-techno-sound with some elements of the original, mag ivory proposes a harder way with his remix.

edit-select reach their 10th release, and to celebrate they have chosen possibly the biggest track from the previous 9 releases. gary becks consumed. this monster of a track (which featured on richie hawtins sounds from can elles dj magazine mix), has been remixed by mark broom, and dutch techno legend speedy j. brooms bang bang mix is typical of his dark techno sound which of course fits perfectly on edit select, and speedy j cranks the intensity up a notch, with his repetitive groove that just sounds immense on a big system (when of course played on vinyl). there you have it. the labels biggest release to date, and by far the most limited

the first edition of the unirhythm green series. two brand new, smooth as ice tracks from the motor city madman marcellus pittman. the a-side is >tom remix<, a dynamic dj tool that will keep the heads bouncing in the club. the b-side, >if the earth could talk<, is equal parts deep and dubby, but still has that lo-fi detroit grit in the sound. this is a record that will stick around in many djs crates for a long time. this record is the first of a series of collaborations between unirhythm and fit.

first on decks.de !!!a fancy franco-german remix session full of thriving techno pleasure. oui oui!

qu keeps showing how the house sound can be streetched in ways you didnt think possible, or at least probable. twisted and deep!

emerging from afternoon studio sessions, the final scores, too many beers and then nights in an upstairs room at their local boozer, discomendments aka lee fisher (of mother >all funked up< fame) and paul kaminski have developed into a fine production unit who are into anything and everything. having started out cutting and pasting edits for their own dj use, they are now focusing on original productions that fuse different styles and genres from past to present. sleeping giant, their debut release on maxi discs, borrows unashamedly from the early network house sound, but fuses it perfectly with contemporary slo-mo house, disco and balearic vibes. whether on the beach or in the basement, the discomendments sound is equally at home! on the flip side, maxi label boss, pete herbert, turns up the heat and reworks the original into a dancefloor bomb. while disco deviant dicky trisco keeps his eye firmly on the mirror ball with a lo-slung ny influenced workout. listening to the sounds of maxi discs is guaranteed to release the pressure

fourth outing from the highly-reputed spatial, and at this point in proceedings the mans work should need no further introduction to the many listeners already up on his sound ? and yet, these fresh productions ? >100402< and >100319< ? mark something of a departure from the so-called >future garage< tag with which he has frequently been associated in the media.

with this release sinan kaya, an istanbul based dj and producer, is becoming a fresh member of the berlin tonkind crew. since 2001 his passion became also his profession, which he continuously dispread with dj-ing and scores of releases across the bosporus over to europe. his productions and sets can be defined as deep and playful. so aswell this release, which comes up with three variable tracks. something else in the front, shows sinan kayas touch for the impulsive sound.this track becomes a real trip on the dance floor and reflects a farsighted feeling for elctronic dance music. on the fells operates more the minimal genre and adepts a symbiosis of many samples, a duby bass and a bumpy rollin groove. as last but not least there is bloom, a rather charming and friendly tech/ deep house track consisting all required ingredients to make it work as dance floor teaser. in all three tracks its possible to notice some eclectic material of jazz, funk, chigago and jackin fragments put together to a unique sound and providing a different vision for life

materializing next is from the mind of belgian producer franco cangelli. techno tunes from oblivion transmitted into this dimension by franco. yes, expanding the palette of machining dreams sound with some banging waveforms for your enjoyment. cangelli delivers the embrace ep, a 3track deep techno release with sweet, elegant pads and chords crafted for the deeper and intenser moments on the dancefloor

after a lengthy break from the electronic music world, genotype is back with an lp for exit records and provides a lesson in stripped back dub influenced music at approximately 170 bpm. having started his music career in the mid nineties under the legendary alias just jungle, with releases on the massively influential labels of that era such as trouble on vinyl, renegade hardware and reinforced records, its no surprise that he has managed to capture the essence of rawness in his recent music akin to the early years of jungle. many producers have tried and failed to bring back the old skool sound with an original flavor but genotype has managed this by resisting the temptation to lash in the tired old classic breaks and instead has drawn for the more organic sounding percussion and drum kits. the dubbed out theme runs throughout the album paying homage to his love for west indian music which he has been involved in for many years and naturally influences the music he creates. genotype is a man of few words and prefers to let his music do the talking so check out the album and draw your own conclusions.

short about the label: a joint effort between prins thomas and word and sound- the idea behind the label is to put out good music and not limiting ourselves to stick with a specific genre, instead opting to stay fresh and individual with each release going in every direction we feel. were gonna be highlighting new talent, re-releasing some lesser known nuggets and certainly give you some dancefloor killers along the way to. from japanese techno to california kraut, just the way we like it. fernando pulichino should be a familiar name to you, either as part of 2020 soundsystem or maybe his recent cover version of bauhaus >kick in the eye< on redux? anyway, we cherry picked 2 of his tracks, one for the peaktime and one for the good times.

las wax returns with a tight two-tracker of deep techno-house couresy of japans takayuki higo. this is definitely a departure from the typical wax sound, but this record still works nicely. a-side >big head house< has a dope minimal detroit feel to it and fits nicely with some of the recent techy output on wave. flip for >wicked tokyo< which is a blissfuldeep tech excursion for the late night sets. if you like francois ks techno side and jeff mills going deep, you will dig this newie.

the kat edit stable pops back up and throws a couple of biggies into the pot ... first up is conscious of my conscience, which shouldnt really need an intro whatsoever. an out and out all ends up classic and a track largely overlooked by the masses when first released on the album conscience back in 88. mr beedle makes this sound bigger than ever with some wicked but subtle extensions & tweaks along the way. on the flip we have time is running out. ashley beedle takes the stevie winwood original, strips it bollock naked and re-dresses this into a wonderful psyched-out disco funk soul rock odyssey masterpiece. over 10 minutes of pure balearic dancefloor goodness, pure n simple. big ! oh, and on a super loud 12 inch pressing..

the restoration crew strikes back with >amber e.p.< , a celebration of the necessary power to feed the machines and to keep them working. live recorded on tape, its pure raw analogue sound, its true dedication to urban dance music. the long track on side a, >andy< is produced by the third side, the infamous berlin based team formed by panorama bar resident steffi (ostgut ton/klakson), marieu and lucretio. an evocative female voice,a powerful rumbling bass, fat beats, hypnotic strings, a relentless pace, an acid taste: simply, a burning spear for the dancefloor. on side b, >thinking right< by lucretio pick up the baton left by infiniti with his later works. full sub-bass deep techno with soul. ground breaking rhythms, filtered vocals and harmonies, a smooth build up on a minimalisitc structure. clear eyes on the future of techno. marieus >the guardian< is an amazing fusion of jazz and deep house with motown influences. the blend of vanguardist chords and exquisite tight drums lead to a joyful experience, the surprising ad-libs spreaded along the track keeps the involvement high during 7 minutes

the second release of kvadrat reveals a completely different range of sound of the music, produced by alexander pavlenko.

contempt-music-prodution presents the next hardtechno record with 4 melodic tracks. on the a-side we have some industial style from orman bitch with the track >why people so wrong< and some very nice melodic hardtechno combination by royal ash & beyen. b-side comes with invidia x & randy emt with fresh sound and a wonderful remake of the legendary heartcore.
