nice price deal !!! label boss steve mac returns with his own production and includes a killer jim rivers remix.

>catch it< is a great minimal, techno groove monster with many detailed elements. >catch 32< is the tribal track for playing in the nighttime. michel laros remix of >catch 32< is a very lovely interpretation - summer and sun is back. >catch it< is the sound of purepuremusic! first pressing in white vinyl.

in 2008 strip strip surprised clubs with his first bnr release of oldschool-new school disco-filter-house. since then a lot has happened for the kid from bordeaux: he did remixes for r&s records and modular, an epic 9 minute remix for nycs fixed guys dave p & adam sparkles and played many cool club shows all around the globe. in 2009, the year of classic house music revival, strip steve (22 and now based in berlin) presents his vision of disco rockin house-music of 2010. imagine ian pooley being young again and ready for the world where everything is possible. 5 new banging and diverse tracks start with the obvious smasher >breakin< and >children<, ready to destroy. on the flip you get >dancin< that samples a soulful vocal hook >feel like dancin< plus a burning rollin bassline. >am/fm< is a super funky acid universe.

nice price deal !!! steve angello remix of this hype track

>the cockpit< is my personal favourite song of the chelonis album and it has taken my sleepless night (and days) to watch out for the right remixers. now that all new versions are ready, i m more than happy because all three fellows have felt the real vibe of the original song. a spezial thanx to ekkohaus who delivered two different mixes and spent a lot of energy and passion into these productions. and also merci to steve rachmad and paul woolford, guys who stand rather for techno, however improved their soul into creating passionated tech house! chapeau! (marc romboy, september the 28th 09)

for more than 15 years now, steve bug is known for influential track somewhere in between house, techno and minimalism. with his very good sense for the energy of self-limitation, bug has set standards when it comes to the funk of modern sound geometry, especially with his imprint poker flat recordings. milestones such as >loverboy<, >monsterbaze< or >wet n dry< are now essential elements of the history of electronic dance music. only a few weeks after the release of his fourth album collaboratory, bug even tops that one with this 12 inch on cocoon: while look whos stalking obviously refers to steves close relation to the raw energy of u.s. house in between chicago trax and detroit, using driving hand claps, percussions and nasty vocals, the flipside zero balance could pass as a vision of how far you can reduce techhouse to the essence of a bass line. also here, short vocal loops - besides the fast-moving elements - complete a sensibility that makes bugs tracks such high quality music for a very long time now.

played by len faki, joris voorn, secret cinema, housemeister , funk d void, steve rachmad... alexander kowalski is back! after more than a year of not bringing out any new releases and leaving the >different< label, the first 12inch is now to appear on his own label >damage music berlin<, dmb for short. >the heat of the night< clearly takes the former kanzleramt flagship back to its original deep sound. this energy-laden dub-techno number is sure to make the dancers hearts beat faster, and to make them sweat - in the heat of the night... >its been a long way< is a typical pushy kowalski techno track that dares the tightrope walk between rolling basses and melancholic soundscapes. as for >dont judge me (just because i like the rave)<, the name says it all! this track is one of the smashers in the current kowalski live sets and has already taken apart a number of clubs in the process. alexander kowalski decided to found a label of his own primarily to release his own tracks that he has either tried and tested as part of his live sets or fresh ideas straight from his studio. in time, he also wants to provide a platform for other artists to publish their music. time to damage!

back to jack with steve summers... his debut release was the big surprise for everyone... the best vintage (acid) house tracks we could wish. and more of that intense classic house music on the follow up. here in our office we have people shouting rewind rewind and flashing the lights on and of as fast as possible when we play this! a must have for all fans of larry heard, joe lewis etc. big tip!

ludovic llorca returns with another superb art of tones release with fellow countryman jaw (dop) supplying some stunning vocals. on remix duty is the enormously talented motor city drum ensemble, back on 2020 after his lonely one single. his remix is a huge deep, dark and brooding detroit house take on the original and has already been licensed to nrk for a steve bug compilation. this is trademark 2020vision deep electronic soul music!

great mixes by tagtraeumer and steve cole!!

wenn das stroboskop erlischt, sich der nebel in blau-roter spotlight-fõrbung senkt und das zeitempfinden irgendwo zwischen samstag und sonntag verschollen ist, dann ist der richtige moment f³r das deepe, minimale >another love<. steve cole liefert nach vielenremix-arbeiten endlich wieder einen cole-original-track und findet seinen weg in die dunkelsten keller der clublandschaft hinab zu den deepsten klangwelten, begleitet von den sexy vocals von pia.gesellschaft leisten ihm youandme, die in ihrer interpretation die smoothen undfliessenden grooves zu rauem stampfen umfunktionieren und ihre version passenderweise der zugkrõftigen dampflokomotive 50-21-47 widmen.die zweite vorderseite wird er÷ffnet von florian meindl, der die vorlage von steve cole auf seine unverkennbare art und weise in ein hypnotisches meindl-original mit viel subbass verwandelt. vibrationen im club sind garantiert!toby dreher setzt da noch einen drauf! er liefert einen schweisstreibenden prime-time-mainfloor-hammer mit verzwirbelten hihat-grooves und treibender bassline ab.das zweite release des basler labels schallbox kn³pft nahtlos an den debut-leckerbissen an und ist wie schon sein vorgõnger so vielseitig einsetzbar wie ein schweizer taschenmesser.

a ton of steel and pipes used as instruments? à driving steel beats, accompanied by synthesizer sounds and experimental industrial samples create the sound of pale musics premiere release >phsychomania<. for sure this record, presented by matt eno and steve morell, head of pale music, is no easy listening. five bands / projects come together on this sampler, all of them top name current level of electronic and industrial music. from time to time the music appears to be dark and eerie. guest vocalists include luna di morph and rosa lee riza.

max zotti remix / original / kim fai s tiptone needle mafia remix

detroit inspired bleeping techno ep. original cut brings back the accelerate synth bloop with modern pulse drums. damon wild kicks in the tight acid and xpansul makes this a big room summer hit. steve parker, not being an adept of calculated biographies or narrated thoughts, continues believing that the best way of presenting him self like dj and producer will always be with his quality and huge musical background. counting on a long career as dj his style in a dj set goes from tech-house and into the minimal techno, with the only guarantees that above any label or musical style the sonorous quality will always be the first and only priority

a killer clubby groove from steve marshall û the kind that reminds us of the best indie singles from the late 70s disco years! steve plays alto sax here over a strutting, high stepping rhythm thats got plenty of warm touches û really glowing with a sense of soul thats great, and touched by some female chorus vocals that are very much in a philly mode! the disco mix is great û even more upbeat and extended than the 45 groove. in the country is a great bit of club jazz û smooth and sweet, but still with a snakey flute line in the middle û almost like some lost bobbi humphrey track from her epic years. do what you will is another chorus vocal number û and you are the world features some laidback mellow flute.

matthew dear favorite track !!! ever seen on hypnotic music & hybr invaderz , sam carlson does his first release with special big up to phil weeks

adam beyers truesoul imprint has been releasing quality techno and house for quite some years now and this release is from 2 giants of the scene - steve rachmad and heiko laux. the release is a 2 tracker with the a side - hutspot being a super deep bass driven groover with eerie pads and hypnotic feel. the flipside continues in the same them with its spacey feel and catchy chord refrain. a great 2 tracker from 2 great artists

isobel sees a welcome return to steves tech house side. soaring synths and a heavy melodic hook are the order of the day here over a tight tech rhythm

flowers that fell (already been picked up on by steve lamacq for radio 1) is an irresistible, chiming mid 80s indie guitar melody, an ascending punchy smiths-esque bassline locked in with dfa-esque drums. >the far< builds on the emotive theme of the a-side: footsteps and a gunshot begin the military drum march. an insistent drum roll and a descending bassline take the story to the frontline

bigroom house bomb for happy birthday lovers, remixed by nicola fasano and pain & rossini!!

poker flat owner and visionary dj & producer steve bug recently celebrated the 10th anniversary and 100th release for the label. continuing this buzz, and as always, confirming his rightful place at the top, steve is now gearing up to release his fourth full artist album. the >two of a kind< ep is a teaser of things to come as the long player drops in a few months time, and what a teaser it is…! once again joining forces with long-time compadre clé, of märtini brös fame, the pair whip up a deep storm, resulting in the solemn midnight swagger of month of sip. cool, metallic pads and trademark tight drums lay the groundwork for a momentous twisted synth line to wrap its way around the senses. full of tension, drama and stone-cold style, its a track that will define the nights - or indeed the mornings - dancefloor adventures. working solo on the b-side, and in-all-outclassic bug mode, steve builds perhaps his most drifting, euphoric vision of modern house music to date. beautiful, phasing synth stabs open this epic-vibed slow burner whose refined elements stay pure and true throughout. if youre searching for dynamic, addictive underground house music, full of history and yet remarkably modern, look no further

how many of todayÆs producers have been releasing music for 13 years? not many. how many will still be recording 13 years from now? hard to say. what can be said without doubt however is that donnacha costello is in this for the long haul. since 1996 he has released dozens of 12&#8243,,,s and made significant contributions to electronic music from 2001Æs classic ambient album together is the new alone to 2004Æs universally acclaimed colorseries to 2006Æs rigorously conceptual 6x6=36 amongst others. shedding the skin of his ten year old minimise label, costello emerges from its semantic stranglehold to bring us his new label and platform look long. from this first release it is clear that costello aims to produce work of lasting quality and beauty with little regard for what a turbulent marketplace might expect of him. complexity and simplicity are addressed in equal measure here and with some surprise we find traces of eric satie, chet baker, pat metheny and steve reich. perhaps unsurprisingly we also find the unmistakable traces of grace and emotion that have become costelloÆs trademarks

driving afro-vibe beats - incl shed remix
