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

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.

another slammin slice of techno from mr steve mac

steve angello returns to his own size records, only this time accompanied by his brother, an21. flonko is a massive, klezmer style track that has been bubbling under for some time and is now here! essential new tune on pete tongs essential selection already, the sound of a gypsy summer is here. still staying true to steves recent tech sound, the underbelly of this track is tough and dark lifted but the klezmer melody. an absolute essential summer track!

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

the debut release from steve summers. three amazing raw and unpolished chicago tracks. shake the house is a magic track that has been recorded on an old analogue tape recorder (hence the noise). stereotype acid that sounds like a early 808 state jam or a guy called gerald. messages from the past and waves are genuine old chicago house tracks. two tracks that are essential for everyone enjoying old joe lewis and fingers inc releases. crazy low-fi tracks that are just a lot of fun! we couldnt stop playing this in the office... cant wait to play it from nice shiny black wax!

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
