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. we are 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… im very glad to introduce yet another member to out internasjonal >family<. mathew senick aka mathew leutwyler. mathew got in touch through the web from mexico and it took us only a brief listen to this troika of wonderful sounds to convince us. now decide for yourself if theres something wrong with my ears….. ps: my computer tells me hes had releases out on perspectiv and traum, ill definitely investigate further, so should you

being one part of the dj team kassette boys, ferri borbás aka superlover is widely known as m_ferri. he was raised in berlin and after the wall came down he got musically influenced enormously by the then arising techno culture of the mid 1990ies. his early productions have always mirrored the influences of the rough, industrial and dark sounding techno sound which was brought to berlin by artist like jeff mills, laurent garnier or joey beltram. simple, radical sounding and functional: tracks like his >tanzgenerator< or >open the watergate< had shaped these asthetics into a trademark sound. his latest superlover project is slightly shifting his musical coordinates : instead of a reduced and purely funtional >m_ferri sound< his new project presents a rather emotional and energetic mix of warm sounding rhodes pianos and string synthesizers. the three tracks of the e.p. combine those sounds earworm-like to catchy melody riffs and being the metamorphosis of a new disco influenced, poppy superlover sound

once again, berlin based resopal label head mri sticks to his guns and brings you strangely funky tunes. weakend-polka titled ep is filled with three tracks, all spiked with steady beats, funk, deep melodic chords and an overall glamour house feel. this is not only very well produced house / funk music, its also a journey through deepness and a modern take on the soulful side of the electronic music which exceeds the genre by far with a rich, colourful palette of surprising, individual sounds, butter-smooth chords, some of the most raunchiest bassline that you will ever hear outside of drum n bass, cleverly constructed beat patterns that yet never fail to jack and swing and an understanding of dub that goes far beyond the random use of echo and effects. this is electric intergalactic soul/funk/house/techno. its noir, its dirty, its dangerous and risqu. on vinyl, as we like our little record-shop around the corner.

wow, killer first release! ultra rare, ultra hot berlin underground sounds from a very mysterious source. strictly limited press - vinyl only, no digital! max. 1 copy per customer. the music does all the talking.

lol is a bit of an unusual project, its just a thing in its own right, its not for anything or anyone in particular, its just an lp made by three bored people who like music that sounds like it did before the advent of the internet. the project was recorded in the bedroom of a warehouse conversion in hackney wick (bedrooms can be incredibly creative spaces, seeing as most of us were conceived in one). they wrote about self-obsession, social anxiety, drug abuse, and failed relationships using pre-21st century recording devices such as vhs tape, 70s valve microphones, analogue synths, cheap argos catalogue guitars, and 80s drum machines.

nice price deal !!! platte international strikes another powerful blow to dance floors and loud speakers everywhere with their third vinyl release in 2010. two of the founders of the label, kareem and thomas bellmer, teamed up for an ep that equips the listener with an arsenal full of deep analogue sounds, infectious rhythms and floor-stomping bass, vital for any sonic attack.

m a n i k returns to ovum after his incredibly successful park to the slope ep. he comes to us this whit his follow up keep that fresh ep. the title of the ep says it all as m a n i k is constantly evolving his sound and keeping the music fresh. the title track >keep that fresh< has a funky 303 bass line with intricate grooves and a hook made up of some chords. this is something that will clearly get the floor rolling. next up is ditmars blvd with its heavy drums and catchy synth line, is a stone cold groove track. on the b side we start with >hold on<. this track is inspired by the sounds of early west coast g funk hip hop with its lead synth and funked up analog bass line. the final cut on this diverse ep is >shes slow motion<, with its r&b vocal floating over the incredible deep instrumental. this is something you could hear in the early mornings at a brooklyn warehouse party. all in all a great diverse follow up from m a n i k that should be in the sets of a wide range of djs

the groove packages downloaded from the internet, are currently killing the true underground music. for this reason steve doesnt use preset sounds in the tracks. the artist is creator, not a copier....

massive one from numbers that really does shows the connections between early 90s detroit and chicago and the current bass heavy house sounds coming out of london. getting plays from a diverse amount of djs too with kode9, shake, boys noize and minimal house guy luciano giving it props.

it is about time for a record from label founder dario zenker. dont ask why it took so long, but be sure it wasnt the last one. and what a record this is, after several great releases on labels like vakant, harry klein records or time to express, dario’s debut on his own imprint is another example for his unique and mature sound. his studio just as his music has grown over the years. 10 am sounds like an earthquake, raw and dirty, it builds up so much energy that even babensham starts to shake. farrel on the other side is best described as deep break beat techno. it shows the diversity of darios productions and diversity combined with a certain signature is a great mix in our opinion. so enjoy it or not, dance or put your hands in your pockets, share some love or be a hater, no matter what we like u.

for our 26th release we welcome back producer & dj alex celler. greek by right, but a londoner by choice he is causing a stir with his energetic and intense house sounds, full of swing, tribal rhythms & deep basslines. first acquiring international success in the spring of 2009 with the release of la palma (area remote) which became one of the years biggest dancefloor tracks and one of ras most charted tunes - the last twelve months has seen an amazing run of productions from alex celler.

mitzi are a 4 piece of awesomeness made up of dominiqe bird, jad lee, charlie murdoch and cale suesskow. they all hail from australias most laidback and sunny city brisbane. some people call it brisvegas because its sexy too. after playing in various killer bands such as bmx (2009 unearthed parklife winners), comic sans (2010 unearthed st jeromes laneway festival winners), charlie why! (recent bang gang 12 inches signing) and the gallery kiss all the dudes have united to create some genuinely exciting australian music. the three tunes on >all i heard< fuse the sounds of garage disco, nyc indie and the light heartedness of australian pop. jono ma (lost valentinos, tracy thorn, teenagers in tokyo) mixed the record at ewan pearsons studio in berlin and made all those trumpets, snares, keys, whispers and vocals sound ridiculously tight. future classics history has always been rooted in bands and were pretty stocked to be getting back into it. plus its our 50th release!

already supported by: richie hawtin, mauro picotto, laurent garnier, max cooper, paco osuna, dj misk, matthias springer and many more!! marc de bell delivers to us the suitable soundtrack with his fourth vinyl publication edelknarz on the berlin label keymono-music. marc is originally from germany and now lives in switzerland. particularly rough and technoide berlin is deeply in him. the sound of edelknarz is more fashionably of dark techno which on would not like to put really so surely in a drawer. one loses himself fast in the three-dimensional structures and the psychedelic sounds. the remix of the frankfurt lk-records of founder lars klein sounds extremely full and transports marcs psychodelic vein with a special push in grooving an energy

chaim avital brings a glow to revellers hearts. the producer and dj from tel aviv is loved like a star for his melodic dancefloor elegies. this charming musician has opened up house music to his own unique sound cosmos, he takes delight in a new and distinct spectrum of emotions. he unlocks the club cosmos, moulds moods and sounds into a universal pop language and seduces us with enchanting grooves. this first single from his debut album >alive<, due for release in february, fills the listener with euphoric longing. the sweet, intimate surrender of >u & eye< takes your breath away.

2000 watt take any number of watts, in our case 2000, add a few tasteful sounds, refines the whole with a driving bass, and at the end rounded with a grandiose arrangement. brian sanhaji realized it perfectly in his track >2000 watt< and asked to table. fucking shot the b-side, as is known, the quieter part. >fucking shot< is not. rather, we have another highlight of the techno genre. attemporal proves with his track, that a certain hardness in music, fullfil the feeling on the dancefloor.

after numerous releases on labels like firm, crosstown rebels and trapez and 15 years of djing all over the world andré kraml debuts on 200 records. mercado de mexico is a trip to the latin american country. >mañana en el mercado en condesa< is a track with field recordings from a mexican market, which is spreading more and more to the absolutely unique andré kraml sound. >el cuclillo y el burro< is a sound journey par excellence from techno to a futuristic disco final. following the mexico concept of this ep, guadalajaras marco balcazar contributes a perfect club remix. >mercado de mexico< contains everything we await from techno these times: fresh and deep sounds, new ideas and tracks, which are eternal.

lust und freu.de welcomes voellmer & brendel, two new artists from potsdam, on their seventh and last release of this year. their track >influenze< is built up pretty simple and brings it on sharp with rolling basslines and spacey sounds flying all over the place. this track fascinates by careless ease and its hypnotizing effect lets his listeners automatically float to the dancefloor. competed by an bumpin someone else and an away drifting antonio olivieri remix this ep is an invitation to move your feet and fly away.

a1 – >10% is gone<: full bodied track, heavy melodic bass line really drives the whole thing! intro has a slight purple haze feel to it, the squealing atmospherics and percussion create a chilled ambience while at the same time the bass/kick combination keeps your head nodding! b1 – >free luv<: a very 80s sounding track, kraftwerk-esque rolling bass line. synth and strings add to this very pumping kick heavy piece! b2 – >in upper case< : highly percussive song, super deep bass and echoed and poppin synth sounds. this track really bounces: the brass section is a welcome addition along with a number of cool vocal samples. a real strong track

nile delta is dancefloor wizard joel dickson, former member of riot in belgium and current member of cutters dynamic-duo, voltage. having spent the past year neck-deep in other peoples music – it was only a matter of time before this, nile deltas debut ep emerged, shimmering, from the water. channel sounds like a late 70s house party. except the house is actually a warehouse and the late 70s are actually the early 90s. an almost paradoxical blend of filtered piano stabs, party whistles, endless delays, a squelching acid lead, horns, bendy-breakdowns, you name it. channel sounds like moodymann at his rawkus best. no party will be complete without this house gem. all this on the flip, sees cut copy bassist ben browning provide an otherworldly vocal hook over nile deltas inescapable rhythm. and the crawling baseline will have your hips doing obscene things. guaranteed. remixes include longtime favourites chicken lips, who take their invincible track record on an italian holiday – and tornado wallace who takes us deep, deep into the night.

jeremy duffy (duffstep) brings us back to the deep, the spacey, the atmospheric, the groove. imagine blockheads, fly los, fingathings, mount kimbies and von ds sound, slightly reduce the beat to the soulful side, add synths and mid/heavy weighted bass and your almost there. as well as releasing music on his own label, join the dots, duffstep sent a copy of his demos to electric minds and after hearing >close< we immediately got in touch to sign the single. the track is one of the most powerful productions were heard this year and proved its worth when we heard it played as part of duffsteps av show on cargos huge system. big beats with a huge bass line, close is a powerful track that crosses the border of house and dubstep. to compliment the track we commissioned hreno & the mole to provide their take with a stripped back house version. in addition yam who also steps up for remix duties providing a killer boogie track. touching dub step , house and boogie the 12inch provides 3 sounds from the different corners of todays dance music scene.

>i keep asking myself where they take all that brilliant music from. its just as if somebody had poked a bees nest and then it all burst out. i feel deeply connected to the pampa style…< (terry hogann, the musical mistress, 10/2010). as was to be expected, pampa is steadily developing into a platform for cross-border electronic dance music. each pampa release sounds different from the previous and still pampa remains a conclusive musical planet. this is all the more surprising in the case of pampa005, which features two completely different artists: side a: nathan fake - xmas rush having reportedly recorded his track >xmas rush< in his london studio during a jam session, nathan fake (border community, traum, saw) has turned in a total brainfuck. its mercylessly exaggerated, psychedelic, inexorable, and at the same time sweet and heart-warming. a very rare mixture. unique in its consistency, we havent heard anything like it since the 90s. its so nice and overwhelming to have your ears exercised the right way again. evergreen… side aa: dj koze pays tribute to michael smith - >mi cyaan believe it< in the meantime, dj koze has moved on to completely different spheres. once again, he astonishes his public with an extremely danceable version of michael smiths >mi cyaan believe it<. having originally started off as a digital error, and recorded within a single night, this tune recalls the ruthlessness, rawness and revolutionary energy of public enemy

originally released on chain reaction in 1996, pelons >no stunts< harks back to a time when the nowadays so gladly used and over-used term >dub techno< was still waiting to be found. but thats secondary. the main thing is: >no stunts< is here again. with addictive, heavily-transformed and echoed synth sounds connected to a strong and pulsating bass line, it is exactly that type of no-frills techno you just cannot stop listening to. now restored and remastered, the a-side contains an edit taken from the 1998 chain reaction cd >various: compiled…< - previously unavailable on vinyl. as if this wouldnt be enough advocacy for vinyl as the agent of choice, the flipside holds 30 locked grooves extracted from the original recording session of no stunts that you wont necessarily find in the track itself and most definitely not as downloads. especially enjoyable with two copies. the effects can last forever

jan driver “gain reaction : you might know jan driver from his famous techno life in the 90ies or maybe for his label grandpetrol, his extraordinary skills in german folk music, high quality mixing for siriusmo, jesse rose and modeselektor or last but not least also from his wmc 2010 #1 hit “tellyfoam” which was featured on the bnr miami noize sampler. here is the first maxi of berlin multi-action-talent and friend jan driver, presenting a selection of 4 tracks including “gain reaction , a good fun heavy bass bleep champ, “cs40m , a slower powerful jam that creates an energetic build up of pink noise and 303 sounds for the very special atmosphere, >hornetbeef<, a tech-house at its best and >mecafunk<, darker techno, big sounds, the right track to close this magnificient production of these 4 tracks. what more do you need

erdbeerschnitzel makes his debut on 4lux records! mr schnitzel is rapidly making name with his intense and funking house tracks that always seem to be looking for new directions. here he comes with deep slower paced electronical tracks combined with dusty house grooves. >suave< flows straight into the air. combining a fat and dirty infectious beat with crazy synth lines that reach and reach and develop in their own unusual way. the same goes for >360< and >ultimate margot< but in a more beat driven way. the sounds build and rarely get extinguished just to build nearly from scratch again. one for the real connaiseurs!

the live musician sebastian studnitzky lives in berlin and plays with renowned artists such as jazzanova live, nils landgren, mezzoforte, etc. on an international level. now he is mixing his jazz-background with electronic sounds.

auf den 7 tracks auf >pattern & grid world< begegnen wir synth- & vocoder-sounds, schizophrenem ping-pong-electro & nintendo-melodien, klassischem grime, bass- und drum-experimenten und schamanischen zeremonien. die maschinen / roboter / aliens sprechen, singen und erzeugen geräusche, teilweise aber auch eine eigenartige klangwärme irgendwo zwischen vintage dj premier und lee hazelwood (time vampires). entsprechend subtil-psychedelisch fällt auch das von dem bekannten designer theo ellsworth erstellte coverartwork aus

for detroit techno lovers ... fantasic record incl strong christian smith rmx...616 seconds highlights marcs dancefloor knowledge, and once again sees him harnessing the strength and power of contrasting sounds. the cascading and sweeping synths, sit pretty alongside the underlying, gated growl of the main bass-heavy synth, pierced only by its open hats and snare hits.

weilheimer gleichung: beats + sounds x samples = pop.
limitiertes doppel-vinyl im gatefold-cover, inklusive cd-version des albums.

the owl, like its namesake, sits in the shadows. its deep, dubby bassline lazily rolls along, as our franco-italian alliance layer their percussive elements. string stabs usher in the smooth-keyed break, before that weighty bass drops back in. on the flip, txarco brings a sinister, somewhat industrial brand of funk, provided brilliantly by its growling, predatory bassline. as scything sounds, breathy vocals, and a variety of drums rolls lunge from the darkness, and fade just as quickly, we are constantly guarded by our bassline protector.

arne weinberg delivers a very personal record allowing the listener to enter his emotional world. the title track >chrome< is a dark and sinister piece of deep techno full of nocturnal sounds and textures, driven by a pulsating bassdrum and rolling snares. one of the darkest tracks he has ever written.

two dreamy indie-rock edits by night plane finally show up on wax – the first a haunting slice of deep house replete thats been melting hearts since soul clap dropped it at wmc. it comes paired with a near-ambient dub remix by g$ from w+l that sounds like sade in outer space. >its always the same< takes a throwback sensitive-man vocal with a soft rock touch and layers it into the trippy beached-out chugger it was meant to be.

tiagos >disambiguation< begins like an aural sea, with a surface made of synthesized swells that rise, fall and crest again. beneath these waves are briefly clangorous metallic noises, searing electro hisses, long-armed synth stretches, and a never ending beat. there are moments of understated beauty floating through this perfect marriage of disco and house, sounds that are there and gone: a bassline that stairsteps and synthetic strings that follow suit: playful keyboard melodies, and percussion provided by tiago himself, who fell in love with music when he learned to play drums as a kid. >nada a perder< (>nothing to lose<) shies away from the extravagance suggested by its name and instead feels relaxed – at least at its outset. against shape shifting synths and the sound of piano house, percussion takes a leading role here, including finger snaps and clanging cowbells. the energy builds to a peak but, even when things are at their most frenetic, this track never loses its studied composure. tiago mirandas remixes and releases have been issued on disco devil, italians do it better, rong music, ene, hands of time, eskimo and claremont 56. he is one half of dj duos slight delay, the sea power & change, and mendes & alçada, and also handles mutiple duties in the band gala drop. tiago has been djing seven hour sets almost every weekend for more than a decade at the infamous lux in lisbon, portugal.
