after the first une release (monoblock/treplec) supported by many djs like mathias kaden, chris carrier, troy pierce, laurent garnier, seth troxler, franco cinelli we are coming again with une002 by zap - >mi amigo< + inxec remix.
zap immerses us squarely in its parallel dimension, a place where stuck-up sounds and elegant percussions coexist with a martian sub bass. curious scene to expose a slightly conventional instrument in a dancing floor, the bandoneon, which chopped with a sharp knife and served with mastery, manages to transform the track into a dizzy trip and full of surrealism.
inxec achieves to transmit the feeling of no gravity based on orbiting elements, volatile basses and open field sounds. as it goes it leads us through a space trip, capable of opening a gap in any type of session, which suddenly can turn into a space odissey with dyes of psychological thriller.
support: konrad black, richie hawtin, josh wink, cesare vs disorder, adam beyer, matt star, jens zimmermann, dan drastic, alex kid, brothers vibes, pheek, alland byallo, pablo roman (bar 25), sebastian wilck (watergate), marcus (weekend), kane roth, luciano esse, jeremy p. cauldfield...

john tejada was marooned in los angeles in the summer of 82. a strange place to grow up coming from vienna austria. even stranger considering the lack of techno there in the 90s. in a land of glowsticks and desert parties, tejada stuck to his love and development of his own unique electronic sound. fast forward to 2007 when detroit area native josh humphrey was also marooned in los angeles. it didnt take long for the two to meet and connect the cables on their modulars into a system twice as big. the result is marooned, palettes newest collaboration between john tejada and josh humphrey. the trio of songs reveal three sides to the duos work. the title track, marooned, joins humphreys modular synth work with tejadas beats and soothing pads, the result being a slice of beat-driven melodic techno created in a city where such sounds are rarely heard. melodiac continues from there with a lighter mood, with humphreys modular melodies and tejadas signature stabs and rhythms. rounding out the three is concrete safari, which largely focuses on humphreys modular fm synth work that slowly evolves into a cluster of tribal sounds, modular birds and grainy goodness. humphreys knowledge of synths and programming is quite extensive. he currently works with la based big city music, a dealer of modular and boutique synthesizers. it is also a place tejada frequents to test most of his gear

next 12 inch on the new sub-label by munich-based gomma records for their output of club-focused 12 inch maxis - telonius gets the remix-treatment by zombie nation and moulinex !!! with his project telonius, jonas imbery one of the 2 chiefs of gomma records is returning to his musical roots - early house music from the 80ies and 90ies. his inspired dj-sets convey a dense and rich musical texture, spanning from frankie knuckles warehouse inspired retro house and loft-style disco music to brand new club productions. never sounding stuck in the past, but with both feet firmly based in the current musical streams of electronic club sound, which also shows in the productions for telonius.

so the story goes: fresh from releasing his debut 12inch as hunch for john dalys brilliant feel music hunee steps up with this fine double header. i ve been receiving a bunch of lovely tracks since i first met hunee a few years ago in berlin. some of these will soon materialize in a proper album but to start us off, heres brother and babel two slow grinding chuggers of the highest orders, stuck somewhere between an tropical island bar... and spaaaayaaaaayyaaaaaayyyaaaacccccceeee!!!!!!! peas.... in the middle east, thomas(oslo, 7th of august 2009)

for the 5th installment of adultnappers illustrious ransom note, we welcome into the fray paul kominek, otherwise known as pawel (dial/orphan ear) with two sublimely beautiful compositions of modern electronic music. there is not many words to describe the feeling of these pieces. they run deep into the soul of house and techno. moving, yet intelligent, pawels plaintive take on dance music is unique in sound, but profoundly universal in feeling, connecting to emotions that seem rare these days on the dance floor. with powerful peak time remixes by new yorks alexi delano and brendon moeller, ransom note part five should make some noise in the coming months. from the desk of adultnapper, as inspired by lines and curves… as you well know, parallel paths are foreordained entities of diversity. as they travel further away from their origins, the more attraction tends to set in, not as a spiritual mechanism, but, rather, as a physical replication or limitless mimicry. one trajectory makes reference to the other, leading to a barrier, a zero crossing, some sort of cessation of thought. lines become curves and act as waking agents for the soul as it approaches its limit. sometimes this process is disrupted, as is the case this time. i have lost something on the way and i seem to be stuck in the place where i lost it. i feel anchored here and need to find a way to move again. there is not much time.

after mondkopf and 33hz, here is the fool house third ep : deloreans ayrton senna, somewhere between phoenix, the though alliance and air france, coming with a remix by john talabot, the latest revelation on the excellent permanent vacation label. delorean is an unheard scenario in popular music. 4 barcelonans, free as air, high on o2. gradually moving away from a more hardcore scene they are now ready to embrace a kind of techno that youd play with guitars. they did just that with their 3rd ep into the plateau which was well received in a cross-over underground scene- well before the electro-something ideas and the 80s references became the clichÚs of an overcoded era. in 2008, delorean got stuck into in the remix business working on tracks for mystery jets, big pink and glasser. for now delorean are focused on developing a new type of indie pop and judging by the early support from pitchfork, fader or xl8r this band are ones to watch. its with the greatest pride that fool house welcomes them, for a length of 4 songs, just like a holiday

rene breitbarths sphere ep,which brought the succesful start of the primarily digital only-label, is now available as an actual record. the track of the same name is already deemed to be a timeless summer hit for several digital/cd djs, and cant stop to spread a positive mood. likewise, easy cant help to keep your feet stuck to the ground with its fluffy chords and melodies, which again create happiness all over. then hypno gets it really deep - minimal house with swing and a hypnotic approach for floor groovers.

from somewhere to nowhere, the first versatile release of t-bet records, exudes hypnotic beats. it will certainly keep your ears stuck to its deep atmospheres and its solid driving groove. xpansul, one of the most productive techno fella on the globe, blends detroit-like techno with an explosion of synthesizers, elegantly arranged. great love of details and a distinctive style will attract you to this dancefloor phenomenon. alessio mereu with >attimo vincente< builds up the b-side with a searing essence of percussions: its beats swing on techno waves and it will totally blow you! - played and supported by len faki renato figlio / jussi-pekka / anderson noise / danilo vigorito / dustin zahn

the return of the label, finally after a few month under the radar... dlid / dick laurent is dead is one of the four members who hide behind the band electroluxe family. they recently appeared in the famous french music magazine les inrockuptibles, as one of the 9 favorites newcomers for the year 2009! discovision merge perfectly pop rock and dance music. with his memorable riff, his catchy pop punk vocals and his pounding beat, dlid made a first class pop dance recipe, this one is certainly going to be stuck in your head.

big with nick curly, jimpster, pablo bolivar, alexi delano, demon days, davide squillace, agnès, audiofly,. andi numan, another newcomer of new zealand origin, presents his ingenious take on house, fusing traditional acid and contemporary styles with ease. we are excited. this one goes out to everybody feeling tired with deep house, abandoned or stuck with techno, but still looking for the one beat, that rules them all. andi numan studied various instruments like piano from a young age of three years. in the early ninties he got sucked into the young electronic music scene, fell in love with analogue gear and started dj-ing at open air events and abandoned warehouses.

made to play brings the noise with the sounds of wearhouse music and head honcho lee mortimer. lee mortimers exciting, sleazy, demented take on house has been kicking the sh*t out of dance floors and festivals the world over. this e.p is not for the faint hearted but is for those who like to rock a big crowd in a ballistic way. when jimi hendrix played not just one but both sides of it at woodstock in the 70s the place went off its tits and when he reverted back to playing the guitar it just couldnt compare and he never quite got over that. lee mortimer is currently reveling in mass support from the likes of switch, claude vonstroke, diplo and kriss akabusi who apparently likes to play these tracks as a post love ritual, naked and chanting awooga! round the camp fire he has in his bedroom. if you want to embellish the feeling of either hendrix or akabusi in the primes of their existences then get stuck into this release and youll feel like a combination of the two peaking on acid.

1983 classic re mastered and re released in 2003!!

sam taylor-wood produziert von den pet shop boys. mit remixen von gui boratto, jürgen paape, mark reeder & den pet shop boys. mehr glamour geht nicht

2008 is going to be the year that joker blows up. hes already been causing a stir with releases such as the recent anthem gully brook lane on soul jazz & last years sell out stuck in the system on earwax as well as remixes for smd i believe & roni size dont hold back (...that frankly, make the originals look weak!). its high time now for joker to unleash his finest works yet on his own brand new bristol based imprint kapsize. kapsize 001 launches with a double aside - both tracks showcase jokers insanely genius production style, a kind of melting pot of influences that take the best elements of neptunes, dirty south & west coast hip hop instrumentals - big !

nice price deal !!! highly limited pressing. first extract from the forthcoming album on dialect recordings from french electro rock wizzard think twice. this limited edition teaser is a 500 only pressing including original version as well as a killer sex shoen remix (famous for their numerous, but nontheless highly acclaimed remixes for inflagranti, scratch massive, bermuda triangle, stuck in the sound etc etc etc). get your hands on this while you can!!!! you ve been warned...

hailing from deep down south africa, mujaba is up for his second outing on the überhot four roses recordings imprint. here come two joints that will get stuck in a lot heads for some time. the music indeed sounds like a further development of the original house sounds already being approved by all the good guys you would like to spin at the party of your dreams.

smashing ben long 3 tracker with great old school techno !!

im grunde ein ganz harmloses stück pianohouse, wären da nicht gewisse störfaktoren und bizarre begebenheiten, die error del disco zu einem wahrhaftigen neu-ravemonster machen. ganz tolles comeback von basteroid und ein leckerer vorgeschmack auf sein kommendes album

the music is playful, ambitious, simple, complex, fun and melancholic and not at least. it is extremely animalistic. they have an album >animals< ready to drop in 2007. elephant s parade was played completely live with drum machines, synths and analogue sequencers. the duo like to record this way (compared to stuck infront of the computer) as they get more free in creating a specific and spontaneous feeling. here one might imagine a big gang of crazy elephants getting lost on a psychedelic parade. in the middle of the track things are getting a bit weird, perhaps too much amarulla fruit, which gives the second part its childish and naïve playfulness. on the flipside bird song has a dirty, noisy, trippy vibe with a little touch of basic channel sound. shake a tail feather !! played by anja schneider, karotte, tobi neumann, troy pierce, woody

attention: it s nu-rave time!! sureshot for all fans of klaksons, kitsune, erol alkan. ed banger !!! next up on 12 inches we release a song from kim. of the presets and modular fame. whoah kim your a party machine! a lot of kim music is making us shake lately but this one especially makes your brain shake. it starts off with a din din da da da da din din of a steel drum and some bongo s and rolls and rolls like indy basement jaxx techno making you feel like you are in some kind of psycadelic carnivale in brazil in a moshpit or something, the vocal screams, >by the time they reach you i ll probably be dead< it s the kind of song you would be listening too if you were to be stuck in a hotel room surrounded by hot naked brazilian strippers doing coke off their asses and tits

this is the 3rd in the adagio series from gaetano parisio and as usual it is limited to 500 copies so its first come first served. and as usual there are two very cool minimal club tracks to get stuck in to.

tony rohr needs no introduction. his releases on clink, cocoon, dipolter,hidden agenda, and weave speak for themselves. >db revenge< is seductive minimal adventure. rohr begins with his dynamic drum work with flips and edits. tight flanged bass highlights. the hook moves its way up in the mix. all together now jack. this one will be stuck between your ears for months. our remix is courtesy of camea (clink recordings/klickhaus). washing the mix in digital reverb camea continues to tease with original elements worked with her signature dry drum hits. advancing beyond the track grabs for your feet and never touches back down. also included is a bonus track of just the db synth. have fun everyday

troy pierce (aka louderbach, slacknoise and one third of run stop restore with magda and marc houle) unleashes one of the year s most anticipated tracks with >25 bitches<. the original track goes back a while, coming into creation as a joke composed while stuck waiting in an airport. not like humor is never ever a part of troy s music or persona, 25 bitches has been knocking down doors in his & fellow djs sets like magda and richie hawtin since last fall. pierce s bass-heavy mix starts of full of dark ghosts, working into a dub bassline and surgical mix of effects and vocals

greyscale s next full-length release come from german based artist audhentik. titled hypno , this album encompasses 14 pieces that dive deep into a heavily-based synthetic world of atmospheric ambient and dub. imagine if you took some amazing pictures of a desert island then put on a pair of ambient dub filtered glasses on. a picture-esque nature beach scene has been processed so heavily that they evoke memories of a place you have been before. this is a true artistry in ambience. perspectives combines a wonderful balance of field recordings with washed out chords of grandeur. breathtaking and majestic like looking down on to a city from an amazing view off a mountaintop. period explores an off-kilter dub rhythm while feeling stuck in a languid moment of disorientation as the track disperses the tension near the end. that astounding build leads perfectly in to the title piece. hypno is a 9+ minute journey deep into the abyss with a track of pure aural pleasure. epic is an understatement here. a standout among many other standout s here. infinite edit is one of the key interlude s that link the tracks together on the album. this one provides a thinner airier stratosphere then the previous ones giving you a chance to catch your breath as you prepare for another trek into the depths of static . this one has you feeling adrift in a nautical theme of optimism through the arduous recent events of a shaky future. a wonderful storytelling is evolving on hypno ...

summer anthem by sonny fodera

next installment in !k7Õs dj-kicks series comes from the vibe king kamaal williams.

following contributions by dj deep and dj hell, tresor records are proud to present the third instalment in their kern mix-series, this time headed by berlin based producer objekt, his first release following his 2014 debut album flatland for pan. in keeping with the series mission of showcasing a more personal approach to mixing hertz describes his process as such, kern vol. 3 is made up of tracks that i know i will play and love for years to come. some of these records have been in my bag for years others are almost as new to me as they are to you. a handful are by lesser known artists whom i admire and who i think deserve wider recognition. planned, recorded, embellished, reworked, tweaked and chiselled away at over a period of 6 months, the mix was gradually carved out in a way that makes use of new and old techniques alike, presenting itself primarily as a dj mix but settling in a sweet spot between live recording and studio trickery. the tracklist spans styles, decades and bpms in an attempt to craft a mix thats unpredictable and compelling in equal measure Ð one that draws from the more adventurous corners of my club sets, but above all, one thats a pleasure to listen to.

excellent selection thru da 80s

two years ago i played at studio 9 in vilnius, lithuania. the following day i missed my flight home and ended up spending an extra day, which gave me a chance to explore the city with my friend linus, who took me to the contemporary art centre. it was there i spotted a book named ÔrojusÕ, that linus told me translated as ÔparadiseÕ. the word and striking cover of the book stuck in my mind. a few days after returning home, i turned on to a national geographic documentary named Ôdesigned to danceÕ, explaining the courtship rituals of birds of paradise. as i watched, i jokingly began drawing similarities between these birdsÕ attempts to captivate and impress the opposite sex with dance, and the way strangers try to attract one another in clubs and interact on the dance floor. this gave me the idea of creating a record of functional club music, sequenced as if it were a club night, from doors to closing, using samples of these birds of paradise and their habitat. thus, rojus. leon vynehall 2016

how much do you really know about nina kraviz? shes a russian techno dj, an accomplished producer, one of dance musicÕs breakthrough names of the last five years. true enough, but theres so much more to her story than that. shes one of electronic musics most interesting characters, someone who has stuck to her musical guns since day one, someone who has wide-ranging roots that run deep in the past, yet shes also the embodiment of the future. her signature sound is a raw blend of house and techno with a very acidic feel. if that feels very now, kraviz has a lot to do with it, which is why she was asked to mix the latest instalment of !k7Õs landmark Ôdj kicksÕ series.

excellent 80s inspired funky / disco / house nuggets

the deluxe edition! debuet album! plus: 5 track ep, oblangle fizz yall bonus disc

byetone s new record symeta opens with a combined track - a transit - since topas and telegramm could be seen as one single piece. both tracks convey the atmosphere of a live session rather than the character of a studio production. the tracks are quite long and deal with repetition, layers of sounds, density and energy, more than melodic and engineering finesse. the whole album follows this approach, as it was fashioned within the context of live performances during the last two years. neuschnee Ð the third track Ð has an obviously reduced tempo, creating a wide landscape of sound with an intimate aura, which works as a counter draft to the other tracks of the record. with opal, the tempo speeds up again, a polyrhythmic phrase whirls around a straight beat, filters are turned, all that evokes the impression of early-90s minimal techno. byetone is basically interested in remembering, in a way to preserve, in citing rock/pop styles, without getting stuck in the past, whereas non of the tracks really fit into a specific genre. seen from this perspective, helix opens the final, more rocky block of the album. here, the tracks are offensive and rude and sound like a band in a rehearsal room. this part peaks with black peace in a high speed heavy metal session. finally, golden elegy closes symeta and a band-like situation occurs. the track ends with a wired lament, presented by jan kummer in the tenor of chemnitz, hometown of both artists. in former gdr-times, they started their musical activity with the brilliant-dilettantish ag geige, together with frank bretschneider (komet). symeta , the title of the album, appears mysterious. this synthetic word arouses associations with symmetry, synthesis or (meta-)structures. it doesn t stand for a definite object, there isn t any solution, and that is the reason why the title has been chosen. byetone s music tries to create such associations without really fulfilling these expectations. in this sense, symeta consequently follows death of a typographer (r-n92), the well received predecessor.

excellent detroit / deep house album by legendary dj jus-ed.. decks tipp!

the ever on point citrus recordings is stepping up for its 5th artist lp. after having released the debut albums of mindscape & jade wich all went on for critical acclaim its time for citrus to get ready for its 3rd artist album. this time its time for the debut album of fourward! hailing straight from lower austria the four men collective fourward started out producing music in early 2007. the boys knew each other for quite a while and shared the love and passion for drumandbass music. for them it was always a main issue not to stick to any particular tiny subgenre only, but to develop a sound of their own. all members have different musical backgrounds which fit together perfectly and provide a great studio vibe. days went by and the boys finished a couple of tunes properly and it wasnt long until austrian drumandbass producer duo body&soul showed interest in their works. also international artists like bbcs very own crissy criss began to support their music giving them airplay on his radio show. as a result of their effort fourward has released quality tunes on labels like subsonik sound, planet funk and fokuz. the year 2010 they experienced the so called breakthrough with releases on nasca recordings and fokuz followed by an epic 12inch for the legendary label virus recordings! the guys definitely didnt stop there and being on the road now broadened their horizon even further. resulting in a series of tunes perfectly fitting together in this cd. diversity and musicallity are keywords for this album. listen from low blow to you and me, quality drum n bass!!
